NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida and Subsidiaries
Note A – Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018 or any other period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Adoption of new accounting pronouncements
On January 1, 2018, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-9, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” and all the related amendments (collectively, “ASC 606”) using the modified retrospective approach applied to all contracts in place at that date. Adoption had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements including no change to the amount or timing of revenue recognized for contracts within the scope of the new standard. Activity in the scope of the new standard includes:
• | Service Charges on Deposits: Seacoast National Bank ("Seacoast Bank") offers a variety of deposit-related services to its customers through several delivery channels including branch offices, ATMs, telephone, mobile, and internet banking. Transaction-based fees are recognized when services, each of which represents a performance obligation, are satisfied. Service fees may be assessed monthly, quarterly, or annually; however, the account agreements to which these fees relate can be cancelled at any time by Seacoast and/or the customer. Therefore, the contract term is considered a single day (a day-to-day contract). |
• | Trust Fees: The Company earns trust fees from fiduciary services provided to trust customers which include custody of assets, recordkeeping, collection and distribution of funds. Fees are earned over time and accrued monthly as the Company provides services, and are generally assessed based on the market value of the trust assets under management at a particular date or over a particular period. |
• | Brokerage Commissions and Fees: The Company earns commissions and fees from investment brokerage services provided to its customers through an arrangement with a third-party service provider. Commissions received from the third-party service provider are recorded monthly and are based upon customer activity. Fees are earned over time and accrued monthly as services are provided. The Company acts as an agent in this arrangement and therefore presents the brokerage commissions and fees net of related costs. |
• | Interchange Income: Fees earned on card transactions depend upon the volume of activity, as well as the fees permitted by the payment network. Such fees are recognized by the Company upon fulfilling its performance obligation to approve the card transaction. |
On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2016-1, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” Upon adoption, we reclassified $0.1 million of accumulated unrealized loss pertaining to an equity investment previously classified as available for sale from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income to Retained Earnings.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements required the use of certain estimates by management in determining the Company’s assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
8
Specific areas, among others, requiring the application of management’s estimates include determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of investment securities available for sale, fair value of impaired loans, contingent liabilities, fair value of other real estate owned, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
9
Note B – Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Yet Adopted
The following provides a brief description of accounting standards that have been issued but are not yet adopted that could have a material effect on the Company's financial statements:
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) | |
Description | In February 2016, the FASB amended existing guidance that requires lessees recognize the following for all leases at the commencement date: 1. A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis.2. A right-of-use specified asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which provides an additional optional transition method. The additional transition method allows entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Consequently, an entity’s reporting for the comparative periods presented in the financial statements in which the entity adopts the new lease standard would continue to be in accordance with current GAAP (Topic 840), including disclosures. |
Date of Adoption | This amendment is effective for public business entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. |
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements | The Company is in the process of evaluating its existing leases, which are primarily operating leases of branch properties and equipment, to determine the amounts to be recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The Company will adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2019. The effect of adoption on the Company’s consolidated statements of income is not expected to be material. |
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments –Credit Losses (Topic 326) | |
Description | In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance to replace the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model. The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held to maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures including loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees and other similar instruments. |
Date of Adoption | This amendment is effective for public business entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within that period. |
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements | The Company’s transition oversight committee is in the process of evaluating and implementing changes to credit loss estimation models and related processes. Updates to business processes and the documentation of accounting policy decisions are ongoing. The Company may recognize an increase in the allowance for loan losses upon adoption, recorded as a one-time effect cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. However, the magnitude of the impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements has not yet been determined. The Company will adopt this accounting standard effective January 1, 2020. |
10
ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill | |
Description | In January 2017, the FASB amended the existing guidance to simplify the goodwill impairment measurement test by eliminating Step 2. The amendment requires the Company to perform the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value. Additionally, an entity should consider the tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount when measuring the impairment loss. |
Date of Adoption | This amendment is effective for public business entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted on annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. |
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements | The impact to the consolidated financial statements from the adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to be material. |
ASU 2017-08, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased callable Debt Securities | |
Description | In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance which requires entities to amortize premiums on certain purchased callable debt securities to their earliest call date. The accounting for purchased callable debt securities held at a discount did not change. Amortizing the premium to the earliest call date generally aligns interest income recognition with the economics of instruments. This guidance requires a modified retrospective approach under which a cumulative adjustment will be made to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period in which it is adopted. |
Date of Adoption | The amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those periods. |
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements | The impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements from the adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to be material. |
ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities | |
Description | In August 2017, the FASB provided guidance to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. The amendments also simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. |
Date of Adoption | The amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those periods. |
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements | The impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements from the adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to be material. |

(1) December 31, 2017 balances in the tables above reflect certain reclassifications between categories.
There were no sales of securities during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018. Proceeds from sales of securities during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017 were $3.8 million with gross gains of $21,000 and no gross losses. Included in “Securities (losses)/gains, net” for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018, is $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, decline in the value of an investment in shares of a mutual fund that invests primarily in CRA-qualified debt securities.
At June 30, 2018, debt securities with a fair value of $172.7 million were pledged as collateral for United States Treasury deposits, other public deposits and trust deposits, and debt securities with a fair value of $200.1 million were pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements.
The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities available for sale and held to maturity at June 30, 2018, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because prepayments of the underlying collateral for these securities may occur, due to the right to call or repay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Securities not due at a single maturity date are shown separately.

The two tables above include debt securities held to maturity that were transferred from available for sale into held to maturity during 2014. Those securities had unrealized losses of $3.1 million at the date of transfer, and at June 30, 2018, the unamortized balance was $0.9 million. The fair value of those securities in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $57.7 million and $22.9 million, respectively, with unrealized losses of $1.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The fair value of those securities in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is $13.1 million and $15.3 million, respectively, with unrealized losses of $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
At June 30, 2018, the Company had $33.1 million of unrealized losses on mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations of government sponsored entities having a fair value of $889 million that were attributable to a combination of factors, including relative changes in interest rates since the time of purchase. The contractual cash flows for these debt securities are guaranteed by U.S. government-sponsored entities. Based on our assessment of these mitigating factors, management believes that the unrealized losses on these holdings are a function of changes in investment spreads and interest movements and not changes in credit quality. Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
At June 30, 2018, $0.5 million of the unrealized losses pertained to private label debt securities secured by seasoned collateral with a fair value of $44.4 million. Management attributes the loss to a combination of factors, including relative changes in interest rates since the time of purchase. The collateral underlying these mortgage investments are 30- and 15-year fixed and 10/1 adjustable rate mortgage loans with low loan to values, improving subordination, and historically have had minimal foreclosures and losses. Based on its assessment of these factors, management believes that the unrealized losses on these holdings are a function of changes in investment spreads and interest rate movements and not changes in credit quality. Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
At June 30, 2018, collateralized loan obligations with a fair value of $138.7 million had unrealized losses of $0.5 million. Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
At June 30, 2018, obligations of state and political subdivisions with a fair value of $30.2 million had unrealized losses of $0.5 million. Management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.
As of June 30, 2018, the Company does not intend to sell debt securities that are in an unrealized loss position and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of the amortized cost basis. Therefore, management does not consider any investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2018.
Included in other assets is Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock which has a par value of $35 million and $32.5 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2018, the Company had not identified events or changes in circumstances which may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of these investments. Also included in other assets is a $6.2 million investment in a mutual fund carried at fair value.
The Company holds 11,330 shares of Visa Class B stock which, following resolution of pending litigation, will be converted to Visa Class A shares. Under the current conversion ratio that became effective June 28, 2018, the Company expects to receive
15
1.6298 shares of Class A stock for each share of Class B stock, for a total of 18,465 shares of Visa Class A stock. Our ownership of these shares is related to prior ownership in Visa’s network while Visa operated as a cooperative. The shares are recorded on our financial records at zero basis.

The Company utilizes an internal asset classification system as a means of reporting problem and potential problem loans. Under the Company’s risk rating system, the Company classifies problem and potential problem loans as “Special Mention,” “Substandard,” and “Doubtful” and these loans are monitored on an ongoing basis. Loans that do not currently expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant classification in the Substandard or Doubtful categories, but possess weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention are deemed to be Special Mention. Substandard loans include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as Substandard may require a specific allowance. Loans classified as Doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. The principal on loans classified as Doubtful is generally charged off. Risk ratings are updated any time the situation warrants.
18
Loans that are not problem or potential problem loans are considered to be pass-rated loans and risk grades are recalculated at least annually by the loan relationship manager. The following tables present the risk category of loans by class of loans based on the most recent analysis performed as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

PCI Loans
PCI loans are accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. The excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan in situations where there is a reasonable expectation about the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected. The difference between the contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as the non-accretable difference.
The table below summarizes the changes in accretable yield on PCI loans for the periods ended:

Troubled Debt Restructured Loans
The Company’s Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) concessions granted generally do not include forgiveness of principal balances, but may include interest rate reductions, an extension of the amortization period and/or converting the loan to interest only for a limited period of time. Loan modifications are not reported in calendar years after modification if the loans were modified at an interest rate equal to the yields of new loan originations with comparable risk and the loans are performing based on the
19
terms of the restructuring agreements. Most loans prior to modification were classified as impaired and the allowance for loan losses is determined in accordance with Company policy.
The following table presents loans that were modified during the six months ended:

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, there was one payment default on a loan of $0.1 million that had been modified to a TDR within the previous twelve months, compared to none during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The Company considers a loan to have defaulted when it becomes 90 days or more delinquent under the modified terms, has been transferred to nonaccrual status, or has been transferred to other real estate owned. A defaulted TDR is generally placed on nonaccrual and specific a allowance for loan loss is assigned in accordance with the Company’s policy.
Impaired Loans
Loans are considered impaired if they are 90 days or more past due, in nonaccrual status, or are TDRs. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company’s recorded investment in impaired loans, excluding PCI loans, the unpaid principal balance and related valuation allowance was as follows:

Impaired loans also include TDRs where concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced financial difficulty. At June 30, 2018 and at December 31, 2017, accruing TDRs totaled $14.2 million and $15.6 million, respectively.
Average impaired loans for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $34.4 million and $32.8 million, respectively. Average impaired loans for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $32.2 million and $31.7 million, respectively. The impaired loans were measured for impairment based on the value of underlying collateral or the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. The valuation allowance is included in the allowance for loan losses.
Interest payments received on impaired loans are recorded as interest income unless collection of the remaining recorded investment is doubtful, at which time payments received are recorded as reductions in principal. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded interest income on impaired loans of $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, and 2017, the Company recorded interest income on impaired loans of $0.9 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
For impaired loans whose impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, interest income represents the change in present value attributable to the passage of time, and totaled $33,000 and $64,000, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and $121,000 and $113,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

(1) See Note D for further detail of fair value of individual investment categories.
(2) Recurring fair value basis determined using observable market data.
(3) See Note F. Nonrecurring fair value adjustments to loans identified as impaired reflect full or partial write-downs that are based on the loan’s observable market price or current appraised value of the collateral in accordance with ASC 310.
(4) Fair value is measured on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with ASC 360.
(5) Prior to adoption of ASU 2016-1 on January 1, 2018, an investment in shares of a mutual fund that invests primarily in CRA-qualified debt securities was classified as an available for sale security. Beginning in 2018, this security is reported at fair value in Other Assets. Fair value is determined based on market quotations.
Loans held for sale: Fair values are based upon estimated values received from independent third party purchasers. These loans are intended for sale and the Company believes that the fair value is the best indicator of the resolution of these loans. Interest income is recorded based on the contractual terms of the loan and in accordance with the Company’s policy on loans held for investment. None of the loans are 90 days or more past due or on nonaccrual as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The aggregate fair value and contractual balance of loans held for sale as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows:

Loans: Level 2 loans consist of impaired real estate loans which are collateral dependent. Fair value is based on recent real estate appraisals less estimated costs of sale. For residential real estate impaired loans, appraised values or internal evaluations are based on the comparative sales approach. Level 3 loans consist of commercial and commercial real estate impaired loans. For these loans evaluations may use either a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches, such as comparative sales, cost and/or income approach. A significant unobservable input in the income approach is the estimated capitalization rate for a given piece of collateral. At June 30, 2018, the range of capitalization rates utilized to determine fair value of the underlying collateral averaged approximately 7.6%. Adjustments to comparable sales may be made by an appraiser to reflect local market conditions or other
26
economic factors and may result in changes in the fair value of an asset over time. As such, the fair value of these impaired loans is considered level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Impaired loans measured at fair value total $11.5 million with a specific reserve of $2.1 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $4.2 million with a specific reserve of $2.4 million at December 31, 2017.
Other real estate owned: When appraisals are used to determine fair value and the appraisals are based on a market approach, the fair value of other real estate owned (“OREO”) is classified as a level 2 input. When the fair value of OREO is based on appraisals which require significant adjustments to market-based valuation inputs or apply an income approach based on unobservable cash flows, the fair value of OREO is classified as Level 3.
Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized on the actual date of the event or circumstances that caused the transfer, which generally coincides with the Company’s monthly and/or quarter-end valuation process. There were no such transfers during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
For loans classified as level 3, the changes included additions of $8.1 million related to loans that became impaired during 2018, offset by paydowns and chargeoffs of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
For OREO classified as level 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2018, changes included the addition of foreclosed loans of $0.3 million and migrated branches taken out of service of $2.0 million offset by reductions primarily consisting of sales of $5.3 million.
The carrying amount and fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows:

The short maturity of Seacoast’s assets and liabilities results in having a significant number of financial instruments whose fair value equals or closely approximates carrying value. Such financial instruments are reported in the following balance sheet captions:
27
cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with other banks, federal funds purchased, and debt securities sold under agreements to repurchase, maturing within 30 days.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:
Debt securities: U.S. Treasury debt securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs. Other debt securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The estimated fair value of a security is determined based on market quotations when available or, if not available, by using quoted market prices for similar securities, pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses, using observable market data where available.
The Company reviews the prices supplied by independent pricing services, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. The fair value of collateralized loan obligations is determined from broker quotes. From time to time, the Company will validate, on a sample basis, prices supplied by the independent pricing service by comparison to prices obtained from other brokers and third-party sources or derived using internal models.
Loans: Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial or mortgage. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms as well as performing and nonperforming categories. The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated life including prepayment considerations, using estimated market discount rates that reflect the risks inherent in the loan. Prior to adoption of ASU 2016-1 on January 1, 2018, the estimated fair value of the loan portfolio utilized an “entrance price” approach. Beginning in 2018, the fair value approach considers market-driven variables including credit related factors and reflects an “exit price” as defined in ASC 820.
Deposit Liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for funding of similar remaining maturities.
Note L – Business Combinations
Acquisition of GulfShore Bancshares, Inc.
On April 7, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of GulfShore Bancshares, Inc. ("Gulfshore"), the parent company of GulfShore Bank. Simultaneously, upon completion of the merger, GulfShore’s wholly owned subsidiary bank, GulfShore Bank, was merged with and into Seacoast Bank. GulfShore, headquartered in Tampa, Florida, operated 3 branches in Tampa and St. Petersburg, all of which have been retained as Seacoast locations. This acquisition added $358 million in total assets, $251 million in loans and $285 million in deposits to Seacoast.
As a result of this acquisition, the Company expects to enhance its presence in the Tampa, Florida market, expand its customer base and leverage operating cost through economies of scale, and positively affect the Company’s operating results to the extent the Company earns more from interest earning assets than it pays in interest on its interest bearing liabilities.
The Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of GulfShore. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, GulfShore shareholders received, for each share of GulfShore common stock, the combination of $1.47 in cash and 0.4807 shares of Seacoast common stock (based on Seacoast’s closing price of $23.94 per share on April 7, 2017).

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations.

Determining fair values of assets and liabilities, especially the loan portfolio, core deposit intangibles, and deferred taxes, is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair values.

No loans acquired were specifically identified with credit deficiency factors, pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. The factors we considered to identify loans as PCI loans were all acquired loans that were nonaccrual, 60 days or more past due, designated as TDR, graded “special mention” or “substandard.”
Loans without specifically identified credit deficiency factors are referred to as PULs for disclosure purposes. These loans were then evaluated to determine estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Although no specific credit deficiencies were identifiable, we believe there is an element of risk as to whether all contractual cash flows will be eventually received. Factors that were considered included the economic environment both nationally and locally as well as the real estate market particularly in Florida. We have applied ASC Topic 310-20 accounting treatment to the PULs.
The Company believes the deposits assumed from the acquisition have an intangible value. In determining the valuation amount, deposits were analyzed based on factors such as type of deposit, deposit retention, interest rates and age of deposit relationships.
Acquisition of NorthStar Banking Corporation
On October 20, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of NorthStar Banking Corporation (“NSBC”). Simultaneously, upon completion of the merger of NSBC with and into the Company, NSBC’s wholly owned subsidiary bank, NorthStar Bank (“NorthStar”), was merged with and into Seacoast Bank. NorthStar, headquartered in Tampa, Florida, operated three branches in Tampa, of which all have been retained as Seacoast locations. This acquisition added $216 million in total assets, $137 million in loans and $182 million in deposits to Seacoast.
As a result of this acquisition, the Company expects to enhance its presence in the Tampa, Florida market, expand its customer base and leverage operating cost through economies of scale, and positively affect the Company’s operating results to the extent the Company earns more from interest earning assets than it pays in interest on its interest bearing liabilities.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company recognized goodwill of $12.3 million for this acquisition that is nondeductible for tax purposes.

Acquisition of Palm Beach Community Bank
On November 3, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of Palm Beach Community Bank (“PBCB”). PBCB was merged with and into Seacoast Bank.

SECOND QUARTER 2018
Strategic Overview
Seacoast continues to execute its balanced growth strategy, a combination of organic growth and accretive acquisitions.
We remain confident in our ability to achieve our Vision 2020 targets announced at our Investor Day in early 2017. We continue to monitor the impact of the Tax Reform Act and believe the impact of this legislation will more fully materialize in the marketplace moving forward. Additionally, we announced the acquisition of First Green Bancorp, Inc., (see “Note L – Business Combinations) which is expected to close early in the fourth quarter of 2018. We believe both the Tax Reform Act and the acquisition of First Green Bancorp, Inc. reinforce our ability to achieve these objectives.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, adjusted return on average tangible assets1 met our Vision 2020 target, while our adjusted return on average tangible shareholders' equity1 and adjusted efficiency ratio1, although not meeting our Vision 2020 target, were significantly improved when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017.
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income for the quarter totaled $50.2 million, increasing $0.4 million or 1% during the second quarter of 2018 compared to first quarter 2018, and was $6.1 million or 14% higher than second quarter 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, net interest income totaled $100.0 million, an increase of $17.6 million or 21.4% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Net interest margin was 3.77% in the second quarter 2018, compared to 3.80% for first quarter 2018 and 3.84% in the prior year’s second quarter. Loan growth, balance sheet mix and increases in benchmark interest rates have been the primary forces affecting net interest income and net interest margin results. Acquisitions have further accelerated these trends. Organic loan growth of $237 million or 7% since June 30, 2017, the addition of $137 million in loans from the NorthStar merger and $270 million from the PBCB merger, all contributed to the net interest income improvement year over year for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018. Net interest income for 2018 should continue to benefit from the full year impact of acquisitions completed in 2017.
The following table details the trend for net interest income and margin results (on a tax equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure), the yield on earning assets and the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities for the periods specified:

(1) On tax equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure.
Contributing to the 3 basis point decrease in net interest margin for second quarter 2018 compared to first quarter 2018 was a $0.5 million slowdown in accretion from discounts on acquired loans quarter over quarter, and higher prepayments on the non-acquired originated loan portfolio, which impacted loan growth by 3%. The $0.5 million slowdown in accretion translated to a 4 basis point decline in net interest margin from first quarter 2018. Removing the impact of accretion of purchase discounts on acquired loans, the net interest margin was 3.61% for second quarter 2018, compared to 3.60% in the first quarter 2018, and 3.59% in the second quarter of 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, a steepening of the Treasury yield curve and higher short term rates, including add-on rates for new loan production, contributed to the 4 basis point improvement in net interest margin, compared to the first six months of June 30, 2017. Our loan and debt securities yields were each 16 basis points higher, and our yield on federal funds sold and other investments was 112 basis points higher, compared to results for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
37
Partially offsetting, the rate for interest bearing funding was higher by 29 basis points, when comparing the same half year periods for 2018 and 2017.
Total average loans increased $681.6 million or 21% for second quarter 2018 compared to second quarter 2017, and increased $76.1 million or 2% from first quarter 2018. Average debt securities increased $67.2 million or 5% for second quarter 2018 year over year and were $37.6 million or 3% lower from 2018’s first quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, average loans were $816.9 million or 26% higher and debt securities increased $77.0 million or 6%, respectively, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017.
Average loans as a percentage of average earning assets totaled 73.7% during the second quarter of 2018, compared to 72.8% during the first quarter of 2018 and 70.6% a year ago. As average total loans as a percentage of earning assets increased, the mix of loans has remained fairly stable, with volumes related to commercial real estate representing 47.5% of total loans at June 30, 2018, compared to 47.9% at December 31, 2017 and 48.1% at June 30, 2017 (see “Loan Portfolio”).

Closed residential loans during the quarter and year to date for 2018 totaled $127 million and $256 million, respectively, reflecting continued strong performance.
Pipelines (loans in underwriting and approval or approved and not yet closed) remained strong at $195 million in commercial, $64 million in mortgage, and $53 million in consumer and small business at June 30, 2018. Commercial pipelines increased $72 million or 59%, over first quarter 2018, and were $49 million or 33% higher compared to June 30, 2017. Mortgage pipelines decreased $7 million or 10%, compared to first quarter 2018, and declined $8 million or 11% from June 30, 2017. The consumer and small business pipeline was higher from first quarter 2018 by $3 million or 5%, and improved from June 30, 2017 by $3 million or 6%.
New commercial personnel in the Tampa market from the NorthStar acquisition and from PBCB in West Palm Beach, and the addition of two new commercial banking team leaders and four commercial bankers during the second quarter of 2018, provide an additional opportunity for further growth to our balance sheet. Also, the planned addition of ten new commercial lenders in the second half of 2018, and of lending personnel from the First Green acquisition, anticipated to close early in the fourth quarter of this year, is expected to provide additional growth.

The Company’s balance sheet continues to be primarily core deposit funded. Core customer funding increased to $4.1 billion at June 30, 2018, a 2% increase from December 31, 2017 and a 13% increase from June 30, 2017. Excluding acquisitions, core customer funding increased by $193 million, or 5%, from one year ago. Seacoast’s weighted average rate paid on total deposits (including noninterest demand deposits) remains low at 0.36% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and, despite an increase of 21 basis points from the six months ended June 30, 2017, reflects the significant value of the deposit franchise.
Short-term borrowings were entirely comprised of sweep repurchase agreements with Seacoast Bank customers at June 30, 2018 and 2017. No federal funds purchased were utilized at June 30, 2018 or 2017. The average rate on customer repurchase accounts was 0.69% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to 0.39% for the same period during 2017.
FHLB borrowings totaled $205.0 million at June 30, 2018, with an average rate of 1.64% paid during the six months ended June 30, 2018 . FHLB borrowings averaged $218.3 million for 2018, declining $156.4 million or 41.7%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. For 2018, average subordinated debt of $70.6 million related to trust preferred securities issued by subsidiary trusts of the Company (including subordinated debt for Grand and BANKshares assumed on July 17, 2015 and October 1, 2014) carried an average cost of 4.30%.
We have a positive interest rate gap and our net interest margin should benefit from rising interest rates. Further increases in interest rates are likely, and the Company’s asset sensitivity is further enhanced by its low cost deposit portfolio (see “Interest Rate Sensitivity”).

Taxable Equivalent Measure
Fully taxable equivalent net interest income and net interest margin is a common term and measure used in the banking industry but is not a term used under GAAP. We believe that these presentations of tax-equivalent net interest income and tax equivalent net interest margin aid in the comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources over the periods presented. We further believe these non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance, and facilitate an understanding of performance trends and comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with these measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently, including as a result of
41
using different assumed tax rates. These disclosures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP. The following information is provided to reconcile GAAP measures and tax equivalent net interest income and net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income totaled $12.7 million for the second quarter of 2018, an increase of $0.4 million or 3% compared to the first quarter of 2018 and an increase of $2.2 million or 21% from the second quarter of 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, noninterest income totaled $25.0 million, 23% higher than the six months ended June 30, 2017. Results for the six months reflect growth across our businesses resulting in revenue improvement in nearly every category. We continue to benefit from the investments we have made in wealth management and SBA lending. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, noninterest income (excluding securities losses) accounted for 20.1% of total revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding securities losses), compared to 19.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
Noninterest income for the second and first quarters of 2018, compared to the second quarter of 2017, and for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 is detailed as follows:

For the second quarter of 2018 and six months ended June 30, 2018, most categories of service fee income showed year over year growth. Service charges on deposit accounts increased 10.1% and interchange income improved 11.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to prior year. These increases reflect continued strength in deepening relationships with new and existing customers and benefits from acquisition activity. Overdraft fees represented 54% of total service charges on deposits during the six months ended June 30, 2018, versus 57% for all of 2017. The increase in interchange revenue reflects higher business volumes transacted.
Wealth management, including brokerage commissions and fees, and trust fees, gained momentum during the second quarter of 2018, increasing 8.7% from first quarter 2018, and for the six months ended June 30, 2018, increased 14.1% compared to the same period in 2017. Trust fees increased 14.6% and brokerage commissions and fees were 12.6% higher for the six months, year over
42
year. This increase is the result of a growing sales and support team, industry leading products including digital tools, and the benefit of direct referrals from the branches and lending network. We expect wealth management revenues to grow over time.
Mortgage production was higher during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to 2017’s first half (see “Loan Portfolio”), and the amount of loans sold was higher as well, but spreads were narrower with mortgage banking activity generating fees that were 3.0% lower, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Originated residential mortgage loans are processed by commissioned employees of Seacoast, with many mortgage loans referred by the Company’s branch personnel.
Marine finance revenue was higher for 2018, increasing 36.8% and 121.5%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2018 and six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same periods in 2017. Continued demand for marine vessel financing and a larger portion of originations being sold were primary contributors to the improvement. In addition to our principal office in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, we continue to use third party independent contractors in Texas and on the west coast of the United States to assist in generating marine loans.
BOLI income was significantly higher for the second quarter of 2018, up 40.8% year over year, and and up 42.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily the result of additions during 2017. At June 30, 2018, this asset totaled $122 million, a 38.2% increase compared to the ending balance at June 30, 2017, as well as the average balance for the six month period ended June 30, 2017. Higher income is expected to benefit the Company over the remainder of 2018 and prospectively.
Other income was 80.3% higher year over year for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Of the increase of $2.2 million, continued progress by our Small Business Administration (“SBA”) lending group generated incremental fees of $1.5 million for 2018 year to date, and additional income of $0.3 million was distributed from a Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") investment. A general increase in other fee categories also occurred, including wire transfer fees, check cashing fees, miscellaneous loan related fees, and other miscellaneous fees.
Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses for the second quarter of 2018 totaled $38.2 million, decreasing $3.4 million or 8.1% compared to second quarter 2017, and were $1.0 million lower for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to 2017. Noninterest expenses for the second and first quarters of 2018, compared to second quarter 2017, and the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, is detailed as follows:

Merger related charges were lower for 2018, totaling $0.7 million and $1.2 million for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The second quarter of 2017 included charges totaling $5.1 million associated primarily with the GulfShore acquisition, and $1.9 million for branch consolidation initiatives. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, these expenses included costs in the first quarter 2017 related to a realignment of the executive team structure and expenses associated with a reduction in workforce initiative. Adjusted noninterest expense2 (a non-GAAP measure, see table below for a reconciliation to noninterest expense, the most comparable GAAP number) was $36.5 million and $72.3 million for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, increasing $0.8 million or 2% compared to the first quarter of 2018, $2.7 million or 8% compared to the prior year’s second quarter, and $7.5 million or 11.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to prior year.

Seacoast management expects its efficiency ratios to improve in 2018. The Company anticipates that in 2018 improvements to our processes and tools for commercial banking, investment in talent and tools for our enterprise risk management and technology functions, and further upgrades to our analytics and digital marketing capabilities, will help scale our organization appropriately, and will continue to deliver sustainable earnings growth.
For 2018, salaries and wages totaled $15.4 million for the first quarter, $16.4 million for the second quarter, and aggregated to $31.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Salaries and wages were $1.9 million lower year over year, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in noninterest expense for second quarter 2018 compared to first quarter 2018 was the result of continued investments in both talent and technology in the organization. We acquired two commercial banking team leaders, four commercial bankers, and made investments in talent to support scaling the organization prudently. During the second quarter of 2018, we granted 191,000 restricted shares, along with performance awards for up to an additional 356,000 shares upon meeting certain performance criteria. All were granted deep into the organization, with the goal of providing meaningful value to our associates for achieving our Vision 2020 objectives. Base salaries were $3.2 million or 13% higher for the first six months of 2018 compared to a year ago, reflecting our investment in talent and the full impact of additional personnel retained as part of the 2017 acquisitions of GulfShore, NorthStar and PBCB. Improved revenue generation and lending production, and expectations for performance results in 2018, among other factors, resulted in commissions, sales and equity award expense (aggregated) that were $1.3 million higher for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the first half of 2017. Temporary services were higher by $0.4 million, but severance costs and cash incentives decreased $1.8 million and $2.8 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017, reflecting the impact of merger activities and executive realignment a year ago. Deferred loan origination costs (a contra expense), increased $2.2 million year over year, reflecting a greater number of loans produced during the first half of 2018, versus 2017.
Seacoast Bank utilizes third parties for its core data processing systems and outsourced data processing costs are directly related to the number of transactions processed. Outsourced data processing costs totaled $3.7 million and $3.4 million for the first and second quarters of 2018, respectively, totaling $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $0.3 million
44
or 5.2% from the first six months of 2017. The primary cause for the increase year over year was software licensing and maintenance costs aggregating to $0.5 million.
Total occupancy, furniture and equipment expenses for the first and second quarters of 2018 totaled $4.6 million and $4.8 million, respectively, and were $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. These costs were $1.3 million lower compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Asset write-offs related to branch closures was the primary contributor to the reduction in expense, and were $2.1 million lower for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to a year ago. We believe branches are still valuable to our customers for more complex transactions, but simple tasks, such as depositing and withdrawing funds, are rapidly migrating to the digital world. Our goal at the beginning of 2017 was to close 20% of our locations over the next 24 to 36 months. During 2018 we consolidated two office locations in the first quarter and none in the second quarter, compared to five locations for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Partially offsetting were lease payments and depreciation expense, higher by $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the first half of 2018 compared to the first six months of 2017.
For the first and second quarters of 2018, marketing expenses (including sales promotion costs, ad agency production and printing costs, digital, newspaper, TV and radio advertising, and other public relations costs) totaled $1.3 million, and aggregated to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, increasing by $0.6 million or 30.1% compared to prior year. Costs associated with direct mail, corporate sponsorships, and local market corporate events were equal contributors to the $0.6 million rise, and were incurred to solidify customer acquisition and corporate brand awareness.
Legal and professional fees for the first and second quarters of 2018 were lower by $0.2 million or 7.4% and $1.0 million or 29.8%, respectively, from 2017's corresponding two quarters.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, net losses (gains) and disposition expense on OREO increased $0.6 million compared to 2017, with gains on sale of $0.2 million in 2017 and losses on sale of $0.3 million for 2018 (see “Nonperforming Loans, Troubled Debt Restructurings, Other Real Estate Owned, and Credit Quality”).
Other expense totaled $4.8 million and $4.3 million for the first and second quarters of 2018, respectively, and increased $1.3 million or 16.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Primary contributors to the $1.3 million increase were SBA and marine lending fees (up $0.3 million compared to a year ago), losses and charge-offs related to robbery (up $0.3 million), loan servicing costs (up $0.2 million), and other higher expenses related to the growth of the business.
Income Taxes
The Tax Reform Act, enacted by the U.S. Congress and signed by the President of the United States near the end of December 2017, had a significant impact on our deferred tax position and provision for taxes at year-end 2017. The new legislation resulted in additional provisioning of $8.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2017 to reflect the decline in value of net deferred tax assets. That additional provisioning is an estimate and is subject to additional procedures which could result in further adjustments in future periods.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, provision for income taxes totaled $11.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively. The Company’s overall effective tax rate decreased to 23.9% for the first six months of 2018 from 34.0% for the first six months a year ago, reflecting the benefit of a lower federal rate the legislation provides, offset by a $248,000 write down of deferred tax assets arising from measurement period adjustments on a 2017 bank acquisition recorded in the first quarter of 2018. Additionally, discrete benefits related to share-based compensation provided a tax benefit of $354,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $565,000 for the six months June 30, 2017.
Management believes all of the future tax benefits of the Company’s deferred tax assets can be realized and no valuation allowance is required.
Explanation of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report contains financial information determined by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), including adjusted net income, tax equivalent net interest income and margin, and adjusted noninterest expense and efficiency ratios. The most directly comparable GAAP measures are net income, net interest income, net interest margin, noninterest expense, and efficiency ratios. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance and believes these presentations provide useful supplemental information, and a clearer understanding of the Company’s performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance and if not provided would be requested by the investor community. These measures are also useful in understanding performance
45
trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with operating measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. The Company provides reconciliations between GAAP and these non-GAAP measures. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
The following table provides reconciliation between GAAP net income and adjusted net income.

Financial Condition
Total assets increased $112.6 million or 1.9% from December 31, 2017, benefiting from new relationships derived through our recent acquisitions of NorthStar in October 2017 and PBCB in November of 2017, along with organic growth.
Securities
Information related to maturities, carrying values and fair value of the Company’s debt securities is set forth in “Note D – Securities” of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
At June 30, 2018, the Company had $954.9 million in debt securities available for sale, and $382.1 million in debt securities held to maturity. The Company's total debt securities portfolio decreased $29.3 million or 2.1% from December 31, 2017. Given the current interest rate environment, the securities portfolio is being used as a liquidity source to fund loan growth. Debt security purchases for the six months ended June 30, 2018 aggregated to $101 million, and were less than maturities (principally pay-downs) over the same period. Debt security purchases during the first, second, third and fourth quarters of 2017 totaled $43 million, $213 million, $35 million and $220 million, respectively. Securities acquired from GulfShore in the second quarter of 2017 were nominal, and securities acquired from NorthStar and PBCB aggregated to $78.2 million. Funding for investments in 2017 was derived from liquidity, both legacy and that acquired in mergers, and increases in funding from our core customer deposit base and FHLB borrowings.
46
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, no sales of debt securities were transacted. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, sales of securities resulted in proceeds of $3.8 million (including net gains of $21,000). Management believes the securities sold had minimal opportunity to further increase in value.
Debt securities are generally acquired which return principal monthly. During 2018, maturities (primarily comprised of pay-downs) totaled $112 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, maturities (primarily pay-downs) totaled $168 million. Securities that are fixed rate comprise 62% of the total debt securities portfolio, with remaining securities in the portfolio adjustable rate, or 38% of the total portfolio. The modified duration of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2018 was 3.6 years, compared to 4.4 years at December 31, 2017.
At June 30, 2018, available for sale debt securities had gross unrealized losses of $23.0 million and gross unrealized gains of $1.7 million, compared to gross unrealized losses of $8.5 million and gross unrealized gains of $4.2 million at December 31, 2017. All of the debt securities with unrealized losses are reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment at least quarterly. As a result of these reviews it was determined that the debt securities with unrealized losses are not other than temporarily impaired and the Company has the intent and ability to retain these debt securities until recovery over the periods presented (see additional discussion under “Other Fair Value Measurements” and “Other than Temporary Impairment of Securities” in “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”).
Company management considers the overall quality of the debt securities portfolio to be high. The Company has no exposure to debt securities with subprime collateral. The Company does not have an investment position in trust preferred securities. The credit quality of the Company’s debt securities holdings are primarily investment grade.
Loan Portfolio
Total loans (net of unearned income and excluding the allowance for loan losses) were $3.97 billion at June 30, 2018, $156.6 million or 4.1% more than at December 31, 2017. During 2018, loan growth has continued across all business lines. For 2018, $263 million in commercial and commercial real estate loans were originated compared to $205 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Our loan pipeline for commercial and commercial real estate loans totaled $195 million at June 30, 2018, a record high. The Company also closed $256 million in residential loans during 2018, compared to $249 million for the first half of 2017. The residential mortgage pipeline at June 30, 2018 totaled $64 million, versus $49 million at December 31, 2017. Consumer and small business originations have totaled $203 million since year end 2017, higher by $16 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017, and the pipeline for these loans was $53 million compared to $39 million at December 31, 2017.
The GulfShore, NorthStar and PBCB acquisitions during 2017 contributed $250.9 million, $136.8 million and $270.3 million in loans, respectively. During the first quarter of 2017, a $43 million pool of whole loan adjustable rate mortgages with a weighted average yield of 3.2% and average FICO score of 751 was acquired and added to the portfolio. Also in 2017, the Company sold two seasoned mortgage portfolio pools summing to $86.4 million ($58.0 million in the third quarter of 2017 and $28.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2017). The mortgage pools sold were believed to have reached their peak in market value. Success in commercial lending through our Accelerate commercial banking model has increased loan growth. Analytics and digital marketing have further fueled loan growth in the consumer and small business channels.
The Company expects more loan growth opportunities for all types of lending in 2018. We will continue to expand our business banking teams, adding new, seasoned, commercial loan officers where market opportunities arise, and improving service through electronic and digital means. We believe that achieving our loan growth objectives, together with the prudent management of credit risk will provide us with the potential to make further, meaningful improvements to our earnings in 2018.
Our strong growth is accompanied by sound risk management procedures. Our lending policies contain numerous guardrails that pertain to lending by type of collateral and purpose, along with limits regarding loan concentrations and the dollar amount (size) of loans. Our exposure to commercial real estate lending is significantly below regulatory limits (see “Loan Concentrations”).
The following tables detail loan portfolio composition at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 for portfolio loans, purchased credit impaired loans (“PCI”) and purchased unimpaired loans (“PUL”) as defined in Note E-Loans.

(1)Commercial real estate includes owner-occupied balances of $812.3 million and $791.4 million for June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
(2)Net loan balances at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 include deferred costs of $15.0 million and $12.9 million,
respectively.
Commercial real estate mortgages were higher by $61.3 million totaling $1.70 billion at June 30, 2018, compared to December 31, 2017. Office building loans of $545.9 million or 32.1% of commercial real estate mortgages comprise our largest concentration, with a substantial portion owner-occupied. Portfolio composition also includes lending for retail trade, industrial, healthcare, churches and educational facilities, recreation, multifamily, lodging, agriculture, convenience stores, marinas, and other types of real estate.
The Company’s ten largest commercial real estate funded and unfunded loan relationships at June 30, 2018 aggregated to $191.8 million (versus $169.7 million at December 31, 2017), of which $163.7 million was funded. The Company’s 91 commercial real estate relationships in excess of $5 million totaled $845.5 million, of which $694.4 million was funded at June 30, 2018 (compared to 89 relationships of $803.5 million at December 31, 2017, of which $684.2 million was funded).
Fixed rate and adjustable rate loans secured by commercial real estate, excluding construction loans, totaled approximately $1.332 billion and $370 million, respectively, at June 30, 2018, compared to $1.230 billion and $410 million, respectively, at December 31, 2017.
Reflecting the impact of organic loan growth and the GulfShore, NorthStar and PBCB loan acquisitions, commercial and financial loans (“C&I”) outstanding at June 30, 2018 increased to $618.9 million, up from $606.0 million at December 31, 2017. Commercial lending activities are directed principally towards businesses whose demand for funds are within the Company’s lending limits, such as small- to medium-sized professional firms, retail and wholesale outlets, and light industrial and manufacturing concerns. Such businesses are smaller and subject to the risks of lending to small- to medium-sized businesses, including, but not limited to, the effects of a downturn in the local economy, possible business failure, and insufficient cash flows.
Residential mortgage loans increased $65.1 million or 6.3% to $1.10 billion as of June 30, 2018, compared to December 31, 2017's balance outstanding. Substantially all residential originations have been underwritten to conventional loan agency standards, with loans having balances that exceed agency value limitations. At June 30, 2018, approximately $507 million or 46% of the Company’s residential mortgage balances were adjustable 1-4 family mortgage loans (including hybrid adjustable rate mortgages). Fixed rate mortgages totaled approximately $289 million (26% of the residential mortgage portfolio) at June 30, 2018, of which 15- and 30-year mortgages totaled $23 million and $223 million, respectively. Remaining fixed rate balances were comprised of home improvement loans totaling $113 million, most with maturities of 10 years or less and home equity lines of credit, primarily floating rates, totaling $238 million at June 30, 2018. In comparison, loans secured by residential properties having fixed rates totaled $247
48
million at December 31, 2017, with 15- and 30-year fixed rate residential mortgages totaling $22 million and $173 million, respectively, and home equity mortgages and lines of credit totaling $123 million and $233 million, respectively.
The Company also provides consumer loans (including installment loans, loans for automobiles, boats, and other personal, family and household purposes) which increased $1.4 million or 0.7% from December 31, 2017 to total $190.8 million (versus $188.7 million at December 31, 2017). Of the $1.4 million increase, automobile and truck loans, marine loans, and other consumer loans increased $0.6 million, $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
At June 30, 2018, the Company had unfunded commitments to make loans of $840 million, compared to $808 million at December 31, 2017.
Loan Concentrations
The Company has developed guardrails to manage loan types that are most impacted by stressed market conditions in order to achieve lower levels of credit loss volatility in the future. Commercial and commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan relationships greater than $10 million totaled $387.3 million and represented 10% of the total portfolio at June 30, 2018.
Concentrations in total construction and land development loans and total CRE loans are maintained well below regulatory limits. Construction and land development and CRE loan concentrations as a percentage of total risk based capital, were stable at 59% and 203%, respectively, at June 30, 2018. Regulatory guidance suggests limits of 100% and 300%, respectively. To determine these ratios, the Company defines CRE in accordance with the guidance on “Concentrations in Commercial Real Estate Lending” (the “Guidance”) issued by the federal bank regulatory agencies in 2006 (and reinforced in 2015), which defines CRE loans as exposures secured by land development and construction, including 1-4 family residential construction, multi-family property, and non-farm nonresidential property where the primary or a significant source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property (i.e., loans for which 50 percent or more of the source of repayment comes from third party, non-affiliated, rental income) or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing, or permanent financing of the property. Loans to real estate investment trusts, or “REITs”, and unsecured loans to developers that closely correlate to the inherent risks in CRE markets would also be considered CRE loans under the Guidance. Loans on owner occupied CRE are generally excluded.
Nonperforming Loans, Troubled Debt Restructurings, Other Real Estate Owned, and Credit Quality
Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) at June 30, 2018 totaled $34.6 million, and were comprised of $19.6 million of nonaccrual portfolio loans, $6.6 million of nonaccrual purchased loans, $0.3 million of non-acquired other real estate owned (“OREO”), $5.0 million of acquired OREO and $3.1 million of branches out of service. Nonaccrual portfolio loans increased $7.1 million, primarily the result of a transfer of a single credit to nonaccrual status. NPAs increased from $27.2 million recorded as of December 31, 2017 (comprised of $12.5 million of nonaccrual portfolio loans, $7.0 million of nonaccrual purchased loans, $2.2 million of non-acquired OREO, $1.6 million of acquired OREO, and $3.8 million of branches out of service). At June 30, 2018, approximately 96% of nonaccrual loans were secured with real estate. See the tables below for details about nonaccrual loans. At June 30, 2018, nonaccrual loans were written down by approximately $3.4 million or 12% of the original loan balance (including specific impairment reserves). Since December 31, 2017, OREO amounts related to branches taken out of service that are actively being marketed decreased $0.7 million while OREO for foreclosed properties increased $1.5 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, a single residence valued at $3.8 million was the primary contributor to the overall increase in acquired OREO.
Nonperforming loans to total loans outstanding at June 30, 2018 increased to 0.66% from 0.51% at December 31, 2017.
The Company’s asset mitigation staff handles all foreclosure actions together with outside legal counsel.
The Company pursues loan restructurings in selected cases where it expects to realize better values than may be expected through traditional collection activities. The Company has worked with retail mortgage customers, when possible, to achieve lower payment structures in an effort to avoid foreclosure. TDRs have been a part of the Company’s loss mitigation activities and can include rate reductions, payment extensions and principal deferrals. Company policy requires TDRs that are classified as nonaccrual loans after restructuring remain on nonaccrual until performance can be verified, which usually requires six months of performance under the restructured loan terms. Accruing restructured loans totaled $14.2 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $15.6 million at December 31, 2017. Accruing TDRs are excluded from our nonperforming asset ratios. The table below set forth details related to nonaccrual and accruing restructured loans.

During the second quarter and year to date for 2018, there was one newly identified TDR totaling $0.1 million, compared to $0.1 million for all of 2017. Loan modifications are not reported in calendar years after modification if the loans were modified at an interest rate equal to the yields of new loan originations with comparable risk and the loans are performing based on the terms of the restructuring agreements. No accruing loans that were restructured within the twelve months preceding June 30, 2018 defaulted during the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, or for 2017. A restructured loan is considered in default when it becomes 90 days or more past due under the modified terms, has been transferred to nonaccrual status, or has been transferred to OREO.
At June 30, 2018, loans (excluding PCI) totaling $38.1 million were considered impaired (comprised of total nonaccrual, loans 90 days or more past due, and TDRs) and $2.1 million of the allowance for loan losses was allocated for potential losses on these loans, compared to $30.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2017.
In accordance with regulatory reporting requirements, loans are placed on nonaccrual following the Retail Classification of Loan interagency guidance. Typically loans 90 days or more past due are reviewed for impairment, and if deemed impaired, are placed on nonaccrual. Once impaired, the current fair market value of the collateral is assessed and a specific reserve and/or charge-off taken. Quarterly thereafter, the loan carrying value is analyzed and any changes are appropriately made as described above.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Liquidity Risk Management
Cash and cash equivalents (including interest bearing deposits), totaled $131.5 million on a consolidated basis at June 30, 2018, compared to $109.5 million at December 31, 2017.
Liquidity risk involves the risk of being unable to fund assets with the appropriate duration and rate-based liability, as well as the risk of not being able to meet unexpected cash needs. Liquidity planning and management are necessary to ensure the ability to fund operations cost effectively and to meet current and future potential obligations such as loan commitments and unexpected deposit outflows.
50
Funding sources primarily include customer-based core deposits, collateral-backed borrowings, cash flows from operations, cash flows from our loan and investment portfolios and asset sales (primarily secondary marketing for residential real estate mortgages and marine financings). Cash flows from operations are a significant component of liquidity risk management and we consider both deposit maturities and the scheduled cash flows from loan and investment maturities and payments when managing risk.
Deposits are also a primary source of liquidity. The stability of this funding source is affected by numerous factors, including returns available to customers on alternative investments, the quality of customer service levels, perception of safety and competitive forces. We routinely use debt securities and loans as collateral for secured borrowings. In the event of severe market disruptions, we have access to secured borrowings through the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta under its borrower-in-custody program.
Contractual maturities for assets and liabilities are reviewed to meet current and expected future liquidity requirements. Sources of liquidity, both anticipated and unanticipated, are maintained through a portfolio of high quality marketable assets, such as residential mortgage loans, debt securities held for sale and interest-bearing deposits. The Company is also able to provide short term financing of its activities by selling, under an agreement to repurchase, United States Treasury and Government agency debt securities not pledged to secure public deposits or trust funds. At June 30, 2018, Seacoast Bank had available unsecured lines of $120 million and lines of credit under current lendable collateral value, which are subject to change, of $1.084 billion. Seacoast had $540 million of United States Treasury and Government agency debt securities and mortgage backed debt securities not pledged and available for use under repurchase agreements, and had an additional $563 million in residential and commercial real estate loans available as collateral. In comparison, at December 31, 2017, the Company had available unsecured lines of $95 million and lines of credit of $1.006 billion, and had $455 million of Treasury and Government agency debt securities and mortgage backed debt securities not pledged and available for use under repurchase agreements, as well as an additional $593 million in residential and commercial real estate loans available as collateral.
The Company does not rely on and is not dependent on off-balance sheet financing or significant amounts of wholesale funding. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company had $127.5 million of brokered certificates of deposit (“CDs”) at an average rate of 1.28% mature, and the Company acquired $145.0 million in brokered CDs at a weighted average rate of 1.90%, of which $85.0 million, $35.0 million and $25.0 million mature in August 2018, November 2018, and March 2019, respectively. Total brokered CDs at June 30, 2018 totaled $227.5 million, compared to $210.0 million at December 31, 2017.
The Company has traditionally relied upon dividends from Seacoast Bank and securities offerings to provide funds to pay the Company’s expenses and to service the Company’s debt. At June 30, 2018, Seacoast Bank can distribute dividends to the Company of approximately $88 million. At June 30, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents at the parent of approximately $47.7 million, compared to $34.4 million at December 31, 2017. The increase includes $21.3 million in cash received in January 2018 from the sale of Visa Class B stock that was recorded in December 2017, offset primarily by taxes associated with the sale.
Deposits and Borrowings
The Company’s balance sheet continues to be primarily core funded.
Total deposits increased $104.7 million or 2.3% to $4.70 billion at June 30, 2018, compared to December 31, 2017. At June 30, 2018, total deposits excluding brokered CDs grew $93.5 million or 2.1% from year-end 2017.
Since December 31, 2017, interest bearing deposits (interest bearing demand, savings and money markets deposits) increased $27.6 million or 1.1% to $2.44 billion, noninterest bearing demand deposits increased $63.4 million or 4.5% to $1.46 billion, and CDs increased $13.7 million or 1.8% to $789.6 million. Noninterest demand deposits represent 31% of deposits, compared to 30% at December 31, 2017. Core deposit growth reflects our success in growing households both organically and through acquisitions.
Brokered CDs are the primary contributor to the increase in CDs since December 31, 2017, higher by $11.2 million or 5.2%. An intentional decrease in higher cost time deposits was recorded over the two years prior to the 2016 and 2017 acquisitions, and was more than offset by increases in low cost or no cost deposits.
Customer repurchase agreements totaled $200.1 million at June 30, 2018, decreasing $16.0 million or 7.4% from December 31, 2017. The repurchase agreements are offered by Seacoast to select customers who wish to sweep excess balances on a daily basis for investment purposes. Public funds comprise a significant amount of the outstanding balance.
No unsecured federal funds purchased were outstanding at June 30, 2018.
51
At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, borrowings were comprised of subordinated debt of $70.7 million and $70.5 million, respectively, related to trust preferred securities issued by trusts organized or acquired by the Company, and borrowings from FHLB of $205.0 million and $211.0 million, respectively. At June 30, 2018, our FHLB borrowings were all maturing within 30 days, with the exception of maturities of $3.0 million in April 2019 and $60.0 million in June 2019. The weighted average rate for FHLB funds during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was 1.64% and 0.80%, respectively, and compared to 0.99% for the year ended December 31, 2017. Secured FHLB borrowings are an integral tool in liquidity management for the Company.
The Company has two wholly owned trust subsidiaries, SBCF Capital Trust I and SBCF Statutory Trust II that were both formed in 2005. In 2007, the Company formed an additional wholly owned trust subsidiary, SBCF Statutory Trust III. The 2005 subordinated debt for each trust totaled $20.6 million (aggregating to $41.2 million) and the 2007 subordinated debt totaled $12.4 million. As part of the October 1, 2014, BANKshares acquisition, the Company inherited three junior subordinated debentures totaling $5.2 million, $4.1 million, and $5.2 million, respectively. Also, as part of the Grand acquisition, the Company inherited an additional junior subordinated debenture totaling $7.2 million. The acquired junior subordinated debentures (in accordance with ASU 805 Business Combinations) were recorded at fair value, which collectively is $4.6 million lower than face value at June 30, 2018. This amount is being amortized into interest expense over the acquired subordinated debts’ remaining term to maturity. All trust preferred securities are guaranteed by the Company on a junior subordinated basis.
Under Basel III and Federal Reserve rules, qualified trust preferred securities and other restricted capital elements can be included as Tier 1 capital, within limitations. The Company believes that its trust preferred securities qualify under these capital rules. The weighted average interest rate of our outstanding subordinated debt related to trust preferred securities was 4.30% and 3.34% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and compared to 3.47% for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions
In the normal course of business, we may engage in a variety of financial transactions that, under generally accepted accounting principles, either are not recorded on the balance sheet or are recorded on the balance sheet in amounts that differ from the full contract or notional amounts. These transactions involve varying elements of market, credit and liquidity risk.
Lending commitments include unfunded loan commitments and standby and commercial letters of credit. For loan commitments, the contractual amount of a commitment represents the maximum potential credit risk that could result if the entire commitment had been funded, the borrower had not performed according to the terms of the contract, and no collateral had been provided. A large majority of loan commitments and standby letters of credit expire without being funded, and accordingly, total contractual amounts are not representative of our actual future credit exposure or liquidity requirements. Loan commitments and letters of credit expose the Company to credit risk in the event that the customer draws on the commitment and subsequently fails to perform under the terms of the lending agreement.
For commercial customers, loan commitments generally take the form of revolving credit arrangements. For retail customers, loan commitments generally are lines of credit secured by residential property. These instruments are not recorded on the balance sheet until funds are advanced under the commitment. Loan commitments were $840 million at June 30, 2018 and $808 million at December 31, 2017.
Capital Resources
The Company’s equity capital at June 30, 2018 increased $26.5 million from December 31, 2017 to $716.2 million.
The ratio of shareholders’ equity to period end total assets was 12.09% and 11.87% at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The ratio of tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets was 9.56% and 9.27% at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Equity has increased as a result of earnings retained by the Company.

Capital ratios are well above regulatory requirements for well-capitalized institutions. Seacoast’s management use of risk-based capital ratios in its analysis of Company’s capital adequacy are “non-GAAP” financial measures. Seacoast management uses these measures to assess the quality of capital and believes that investors may find it useful in their analysis of the Company. The capital measures are not necessarily comparable to similar capital measures that may be presented by other companies (see “Note I – Shareholders’ Equity”).

The Company’s total risk-based capital ratio was 15.21% at June 30, 2018, an increase from December 31, 2017’s ratio of 14.24%. Higher earnings have been a primary contributor. At June 30, 2018, the Bank’s leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets) was 10.13%, compared to 9.72% at December 31, 2017, reflecting earnings during the first quarter.
Accumulated other comprehensive income declined $12.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 from December 31, 2017, reflecting the impact of higher interest rates on available for sale securities.
The Company and Seacoast Bank are subject to various general regulatory policies and requirements relating to the payment of dividends, including requirements to maintain adequate capital above regulatory minimums. The appropriate federal bank regulatory authority may prohibit the payment of dividends where it has determined that the payment of dividends would be an unsafe or unsound practice. The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from Seacoast Bank and its other subsidiaries, and the Company’s primary source of cash and liquidity, other than securities offerings and borrowings, is dividends from its bank subsidiary. Without Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) approval, Seacoast Bank can pay $88 million of dividends to the Company.
The OCC and the Federal Reserve have policies that encourage banks and bank holding companies to pay dividends from current earnings, and have the general authority to limit the dividends paid by national banks and bank holding companies, respectively, if such payment may be deemed to constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. If, in the particular circumstances, either of these federal regulators determined that the payment of dividends would constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice, either the OCC or the Federal Reserve may, among other things, issue a cease and desist order prohibiting the payment of dividends by Seacoast Bank or us, respectively. Under a recently adopted Federal Reserve policy, the board of directors of a bank holding company must consider different factors to ensure that its dividend level is prudent relative to the organization’s financial position and is not based on overly optimistic earnings scenarios such as any potential events that may occur before the payment date that could affect its ability to pay, while still maintaining a strong financial position. As a general matter, the Federal Reserve has indicated that the board of directors of a bank holding company, such as Seacoast, should consult with the Federal Reserve and eliminate, defer, or significantly reduce the bank holding company’s dividends if: (i) its net income available to shareholders for the past four quarters, net of dividends previously paid during that period, is not sufficient to fully fund the dividends; (ii) its prospective rate of earnings retention is not consistent with its capital needs and overall current and prospective financial condition; or (iii) it will not meet, or is in danger of not meeting, its minimum regulatory capital adequacy ratios.
53
The Company has seven wholly owned trust subsidiaries that have issued trust preferred stock. Trust preferred securities from our acquisitions were recorded at fair value when acquired. All trust preferred securities are guaranteed by the Company on a junior subordinated basis. The Federal Reserve’s rules permit qualified trust preferred securities and other restricted capital elements to be included under Basel III capital guidelines, with limitations, and net of goodwill and intangibles. The Company believes that its trust preferred securities qualify under these revised regulatory capital rules and believes that it can treat all $70.7 million of trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital. For regulatory purposes, the trust preferred securities are added to the Company’s tangible common shareholders’ equity to calculate Tier 1 capital.
The Company’s capital is expected to continue to increase with positive earnings.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, (“GAAP”), including prevailing practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments in the application of certain of its accounting policies that involve significant estimates and assumptions. We have established policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. These estimates and assumptions, which may materially affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and changes in this information over time and the use of revised estimates and assumptions could materially affect amounts reported in subsequent financial statements. Management, after consultation with the Company’s Audit Committee, believes the most critical accounting estimates and assumptions that involve the most difficult, subjective and complex assessments are:
• | the allowance and the provision for loan losses; |
• | acquisition accounting and purchased loans; |
• | intangible assets and impairment testing; |
• | other fair value adjustments; |
• | other than temporary impairment of debt securities; |
• | realization of deferred tax assets; and |
• | contingent liabilities. |
The following is a discussion of the critical accounting policies intended to facilitate a reader’s understanding of the judgments, estimates and assumptions underlying these accounting policies and the possible or likely events or uncertainties known to us that could have a material effect on our reported financial information.
Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management determines the provision for loan losses by continuously analyzing and monitoring delinquencies, nonperforming loans levels and the outstanding balances for each loan category, as well as the amount of net charge-offs, for estimating losses inherent in its portfolio. While the Company’s policies and procedures used to estimate the provision for loan losses charged to operations are considered adequate by management, factors beyond the control of the Company, such as general economic conditions, both locally and nationally, make management’s judgment as to the adequacy of the provision and allowance for loan losses approximate and imprecise (see “Nonperforming Assets”).
The provision for loan losses is the result of a detailed analysis estimating for probable loan losses. The analysis includes the evaluation of impaired and purchased credit impaired loans as prescribed under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310, Receivables as well as an analysis of homogeneous loan pools not individually evaluated as prescribed under ASC 450, Contingencies. The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2018 was $2.5 million, compared to $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2018, and $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2017, reflecting the effects of portfolio growth as well as $1.7 million in net charge-offs during the second quarter of 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded provision for loan losses of $3.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The Company incurred net charge-offs of $1.7 million or 0.17% for the current quarter compared to near zero in the first quarter of 2018. Net charge-offs for the four most recent quarters averaged 0.09%. For 2018, provision for loan losses reflects net charge-offs experienced. Delinquency trends remain low, even as nonperforming loans increased $7.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2018, the result of a transfer of a single performing commercial real estate credit to nonaccrual status (see section titled “Nonperforming Loans, Troubled Debt Restructurings, Other Real Estate Owned, and Credit Quality”).
Management continuously monitors the quality of the Company’s loan portfolio and maintains an allowance for loan losses it believes is sufficient to absorb probable losses incurred in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses increased $1.8 million to
54
$28.9 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $27.1 million at December 31, 2017. The allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) framework has four basic elements: (1) specific allowances for loans individually evaluated for impairment; (2) general allowances for pools of homogeneous non-purchased loans (“portfolio loans”) within the portfolio that have similar risk characteristics, which are not individually evaluated; (3) specific allowances for purchased impaired loans which are individually evaluated based on the loans expected principal and interest cash flows; and (4) general allowances for purchased unimpaired pools of homogeneous loans that have similar risk characteristics. The aggregate of these four components results in our total ALLL.
The first component of the ALLL analysis involves the estimation of an allowance specific to individually evaluated impaired portfolio loans, including accruing and non-accruing restructured commercial and consumer loans. In this process, a specific allowance is established for impaired loans based on an analysis of the most probable sources of repayment, including discounted cash flows, liquidation or operation of the collateral, or the market value of the loan itself. It is the Company’s policy to charge off any portion of the loan deemed uncollectable. Restructured consumer loans are also evaluated and included in this element of the estimate. As of June 30, 2018, the specific allowance related to impaired portfolio loans individually evaluated totaled $2.1 million, compared to $2.4 million at December 31, 2017. Residential loans that become 90 days past due are placed on nonaccrual and a specific allowance is made for any loan that becomes 120 days past due. Residential loans are subsequently written down if they become 180 days past due and such write-downs are supported by a current appraisal, consistent with current banking regulations.
The second component of the ALLL analysis, the general allowance for homogeneous portfolio loan pools not individually evaluated, is determined by applying factors to pools of loans within the portfolio that have similar risk characteristics. The general allowance is determined by applying a migration model to portfolio segments that allows us to observe performance over time, and to separately analyze sub-segments based on vintage, risk rating, and origination tactics. Adjustments may be made to baseline reserves for some of the loan pools based on an assessment of internal and external influences on credit quality not fully reflected in the historical loss experience. These influences may include elements such as changes in concentration, macroeconomic conditions, and/or recent observable asset quality trends. Our analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses also takes into account qualitative factors such as credit quality, loan concentrations, internal controls, audit results, staff turnover, local market conditions, employment levels and loan growth.
The third component consists of amounts reserved for purchased credit-impaired loans (PCI). On a quarterly basis, the Company updates the amount of loan principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected, incorporating assumptions regarding default rates, loss severities, the amounts and timing of prepayments and other factors that are reflective of current market conditions. Probable decreases in expected loan cash flows trigger the recognition of impairment, which is then measured as the present value of the expected principal loss plus any related foregone interest cash flows discounted at the pool’s effective interest rate. Impairments that occur after the acquisition date are recognized through the provision for loan losses. Probable and significant increases in expected principal cash flows would first reverse any previously recorded allowance for loan losses; any remaining increases are recognized prospectively as interest income. The impacts of (i) prepayments, (ii) changes in variable interest rates, and (iii) any other changes in the timing of expected cash flows are recognized prospectively as adjustments to interest income. Disposals of loans, which may include sales of loans, receipt of payments in full by the borrower, or foreclosure, result in removal of the loan from the PCI portfolio.
The final component consists of amounts reserved for purchased unimpaired loans (PUL). Loans collectively evaluated for impairment reported at June 30, 2018 include loans acquired from PBCB on November 3, 2017, NorthStar on October 20, 2017, GulfShore on April 7, 2017, BMO Harris on June 3, 2016, Floridian Bank on March 11, 2016, Grand Bank on July 17, 2015 and BANKshares on October 1, 2014 that are not PCI loans. These loans are performing loans recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date. These fair value discount amounts are accreted into income over the remaining lives of the related loans on a level yield basis.
The allowance as a percentage of portfolio loans outstanding (excluding PCI and PUL loans) was 0.88% at June 30, 2018, compared to 0.90% at December 31, 2017. The risk profile of the loan portfolio reflects adherence to credit management methodologies to execute a low risk strategic plan for loan growth. New loan production is focused on adjustable rate residential real estate loans, owner-occupied commercial real estate, small business loans for professionals and businesses, as well as consumer lending. Strategies, processes and controls are in place to ensure that new production is well underwritten and maintains a focus on smaller, diversified and lower-risk lending.
Concentrations of credit risk, discussed under the caption “Loan Portfolio” of this discussion and analysis, can affect the level of the allowance and may involve loans to one borrower, an affiliated group of borrowers, borrowers engaged in or dependent upon the same industry, or a group of borrowers whose loans are predicated on the same type of collateral. At June 30, 2018, the Company had $1.377 billion in loans secured by residential real estate and $1.787 billion in loans secured by commercial real estate,
55
representing 34.7% and 45.0% of total loans outstanding, respectively. In addition, the Company is subject to a geographic concentration of credit because it primarily operates in central and southeastern Florida.
It is the practice of the Company to ensure that its charge-off policy meets or exceeds regulatory minimums. Losses on unsecured consumer loans are recognized at 90 days past due, compared to the regulatory loss criteria of 120 days. In compliance with Federal Financial Institution Examination Council guidelines, secured consumer loans, including residential real estate, are typically charged-off or charged down between 120 and 180 days past due, depending on the collateral type. Commercial loans and real estate loans are typically placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is past due for 90 days or more, unless the loan is both secured by collateral having realizable value sufficient to discharge the debt in-full and the loan is in process of collection. Secured loans may be charged-down to the estimated value of the collateral with previously accrued unpaid interest reversed. Subsequent charge-offs may be required as a result of changes in the market value of collateral or other repayment prospects. Initial charge-off amounts are based on valuation estimates derived from appraisals, broker price opinions, or other market information. Generally, new appraisals are not received until the foreclosure process is completed; however, collateral values are evaluated periodically based on market information and incremental charge-offs are recorded if it is determined that collateral values have declined from their initial estimates.
While it is the Company’s policy to charge off in the current period loans in which a loss is considered probable, there are additional risks of future losses that cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to particular loans or classes of loans. Because these risks include the state of the economy, borrower payment behaviors and local market conditions as well as conditions affecting individual borrowers, management’s judgment of the allowance is necessarily approximate and imprecise. The allowance is also subject to regulatory examinations and determinations as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the methodology used to calculate the ALLL and the size of the ALLL in comparison to a group of peer companies identified by the regulatory agencies. Management will consistently evaluate the ALLL methodology and seek to refine and enhance this process as appropriate. As a result, it is likely that the methodology will continue to evolve over time.
Note F to the financial statements (titled “Allowance for Loan Losses”) summarizes the Company’s allocation of the allowance for loan losses to construction and land development loans, commercial and residential estate loans, commercial and financial loans, and consumer loans, and provides more specific detail regarding charge-offs and recoveries for each loan component and the composition of the loan portfolio at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Acquisition Accounting and Purchased Loans – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company accounts for its acquisitions under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting. All identifiable assets acquired, including loans, are recorded at fair value. No allowance for loan losses related to the acquired loans is recorded on the acquisition date as the fair value of the loans acquired incorporates assumptions regarding credit risk. All loans acquired are recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value methodology prescribed in ASC Topic 820. The fair value estimates associated with the loans include estimates related to expected prepayments and the amount and timing of expected principal, interest and other cash flows.
Over the life of the PCI loans acquired, the Company continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether the present value of the acquired loans using the effective interest rates has decreased and if so, recognizes a provision for loan loss in its consolidated statement of income. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, the Company adjusts the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the loan’s remaining life.
Intangible Assets and Impairment Testing – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Intangible assets consist of goodwill and core deposit intangibles. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business acquisitions. The core deposit intangible represents the excess intangible value of acquired deposit customer relationships as determined by valuation specialists. Core deposit intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis, and are evaluated for indications of potential impairment at least annually. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is evaluated for impairment on at least an annual basis. We performed an annual impairment test of goodwill as required by FASB ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, in the fourth quarter of 2017. Seacoast conducted the test internally, documenting the impairment test results, and concluded that no impairment occurred. Goodwill was not recorded for the Grand acquisition (on July 17, 2015) that resulted in a bargain purchase gain; however a core deposit intangible was recorded.
Fair value estimates for acquired assets and assumed liabilities are based on the information available, and are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information relative to closing date fair values becomes available.
56
Other Fair Value Measurements – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
“As Is” values are used to measure fair market value on impaired loans, OREO and repossessed assets. All impaired loans, OREO and repossessed assets are reviewed quarterly to determine if fair value adjustments are necessary based on known changes in the market and/or the project assumptions. When necessary, the “As Is” appraised value may be adjusted based on more recent appraisal assumptions received by the Company on other similar properties, the tax assessed market value, comparative sales and/or an internal valuation. Collateral dependent impaired loans are loans that are solely dependent on the liquidation of the collateral or operation of the collateral for repayment. If an updated assessment is deemed necessary and an internal valuation cannot be made, an external “As Is” appraisal will be requested. Upon receipt of the “As Is” appraisal a charge-off is recognized for the difference between the loan amount and its current fair market value.
The fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio at June 30, 2018 was less than historical amortized cost, producing net unrealized losses of $21.3 million that have been included in other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of shareholders’ equity (net of taxes). The Company made no change to the valuation techniques used to determine the fair values of securities during 2018 and 2017. The fair value of each security available for sale was obtained from independent pricing sources utilized by many financial institutions or from dealer quotes. The fair value of many state and municipal securities are not readily available through market sources, so fair value estimates are based on quoted market price or prices of similar instruments. Generally, the Company obtains one price for each security. However, actual values can only be determined in an arms-length transaction between a willing buyer and seller that can, and often do, vary from these reported values. Furthermore, significant changes in recorded values due to changes in actual and perceived economic conditions can occur rapidly, producing greater unrealized losses or gains in the available for sale portfolio.
During 2014, management identified $158.8 million of investment securities available for sale and transferred them to held for investment. The unrealized holding losses at the date of transfer totaled $3.0 million. For the securities that were transferred into the held for investment category from the available for sale category, the unrealized holding losses at the date of the transfer will continue to be reported in other comprehensive income, and will be amortized over the remaining life of the security as an adjustment of yield in a manner consistent with the amortization of a discount. At June 30, 2018, the remaining unamortized amount of these losses was $0.9 million. The amortization of unrealized holding losses reported in equity will offset the effect on interest income of the amortization of the discount. Management believes the securities transferred are a core banking asset that they now intend to hold until maturity, and if interest rates were to increase before maturity, the fair values would be impacted more significantly and therefore are not consistent with the characteristics of an available for sale investment.
Seacoast Bank also holds 11,330 shares of Visa Class B stock, which following resolution of Visa's pending litigation will be converted to Visa Class A shares. Under the current conversion rate that became effective June 28, 2018, the Company expects to receive 1.6298 shares of Class A stock for each share of Class B stock, for a total of 18,465 shares of Visa Class A stock. Our ownership is related to prior ownership in Visa’s network, while Visa operated as a cooperative. This ownership is recorded on our financial records at a zero basis. Also included in other assets is a $6.2 million investment in a mutual fund carried at fair value.
Other Than Temporary Impairment of Securities – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Seacoast reviews investments quarterly for other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”). The following primary factors are considered for securities identified for OTTI testing: percent decline in fair value, rating downgrades, subordination, duration, amortized loan-to-value, and the ability of the issuers to pay all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms. Prices obtained from pricing services are usually not adjusted. Based on our internal review procedures and the fair values provided by the pricing services, we believe that the fair values provided by the pricing services are consistent with the principles of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. However, on occasion pricing provided by the pricing services may not be consistent with other observed prices in the market for similar securities. Using observable market factors, including interest rate and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities and default rates, the Company may at times validate the observed prices using a discounted cash flow model and using the observed prices for similar securities to determine the fair value of its securities.
Changes in the fair values, as a result of deteriorating economic conditions and credit spread changes, should only be temporary. Further, management believes that the Company’s other sources of liquidity, as well as the cash flow from principal and interest payments from its securities portfolio, reduces the risk that losses would be realized as a result of a need to sell securities to obtain liquidity.
Income Taxes and Realization of Deferred Tax Assets – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
57
Seacoast is subject to income tax laws of the various jurisdictions in which it operates, including U.S. federal, state and local jurisdictions. These laws can be complex and subject to interpretation. Seacoast makes assumptions about how these laws should be applied when determining the provision for income tax expense, including assumptions around the timing of when certain items may be deemed taxable.
Seacoast’s provision for income taxes is comprised of current and deferred taxes. Deferred taxes represent the difference in measurement of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes compared to income tax return purposes. Deferred tax assets may also be recognized in connection with certain net operating losses (NOLs) and tax credits. Deferred tax assets are recognized if, based upon management’s judgment, it is more likely than not the benefits of the deferred tax assets will be realized.
At June 30, 2018, the Company had net tax assets of $26.0 million, including net deferred tax assets (“DTA”) of $24.7 million and current receivable of $1.3 million. Although realization is not assured, management believes that realization of the carrying value of the DTA is more likely than not, based upon expectations as to future taxable income and tax planning strategies, as defined by ASC 740 Income Taxes. In comparison, at December 31, 2017 the Company had a net DTA of $25.4 million.
Factors that support this conclusion:
• | Income before tax has steadily increased as a result of organic growth, and the 2015 Grand, 2016 Floridian and BMO, and 2017 GulfShore, NorthStar and PBCB acquisitions should further assist in achieving management’s forecast of future earnings which recovers the net operating loss carry-forwards well before expiration; |
• | Credit costs and overall credit risk has been stable which decreases their impact on future taxable earnings; |
• | Growth rates for loans are at levels adequately supported by loan officers and support staff; |
• | We believe new loan production credit quality and concentrations are well managed; and |
• | Current economic growth forecasts for Florida and the Company’s markets are supportive. |
Contingent Liabilities – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company is subject to contingent liabilities, including judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings, and tax and other claims arising from the conduct of our business activities. These proceedings include actions brought against the Company and/or our subsidiaries with respect to transactions in which the Company and/or our subsidiaries acted as a lender, a financial advisor, a broker or acted in a related activity. Accruals are established for legal and other claims when it becomes probable that the Company will incur an expense and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Company management, together with attorneys, consultants and other professionals, assesses the probability and estimated amounts involved in a contingency. Throughout the life of a contingency, the Company or our advisors may learn of additional information that can affect our assessments about probability or about the estimates of amounts involved. Changes in these assessments can lead to changes in recorded reserves. In addition, the actual costs of resolving these claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts reserved for the claims. At June 30, 2018, the Company had no significant accruals for contingent liabilities and had no known pending matters that could potentially be significant.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, cash flows and net interest income. This risk is managed using simulation modeling to calculate the most likely interest rate risk utilizing estimated loan and deposit growth. The objective is to optimize the Company’s financial position, liquidity, and net interest income while limiting their volatility.
Senior management regularly reviews the overall interest rate risk position and evaluates strategies to manage the risk. The Company’s second quarter 2018 Asset and Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”) model simulation indicates net interest income would increase 8.2% if interest rates increased 200 basis points in a parallel fashion over the next 12 months and 4.2% if interest rates increased 100 basis points in a parallel fashion over the next 12 months, and improve 12.4% and 6.5%, respectively, on a 13 to 24 month basis. This compares with the Company’s second quarter 2017 model simulation, which indicated net interest income would increase 5.8% if interest rates were increased 200 basis points in a parallel fashion over the next 12 months and 3.0% if interest rates increased 100 basis points, and improve 9.1% and 4.8%, respectively, on a 13 to 24 month basis. These simulations do not include the impact of accretion from purchased credit impaired, or unimpaired loans.
The Company had a positive gap position based on contractual and prepayment assumptions for the next 12 months, with a positive cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap as a percentage of total earning assets of 21.0% at June 30, 2018. This result includes assumptions for core deposit re-pricing validated for the Company by an independent third party consulting group.
58
The computations of interest rate risk do not necessarily include certain actions management may undertake to manage this risk in response to changes in interest rates. Derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps, options, caps, floors, futures and forward contracts may be utilized as components of the Company’s risk management profile.
Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
The condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money, over time, due to inflation.
Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than the general level of inflation. However, inflation affects financial institutions by increasing their cost of goods and services purchased, as well as the cost of salaries and benefits, occupancy expense, and similar items. Inflation and related increases in interest rates generally decrease the market value of investments and loans held and may adversely affect liquidity, earnings, and shareholders’ equity. Mortgage originations and re-financings tend to slow as interest rates increase, and higher interest rates likely will reduce the Company’s earnings from such activities and the income from the sale of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
See Management’s discussion and analysis “Interest Rate Sensitivity.”
Market risk refers to potential losses arising from changes in interest rates, and other relevant market rates or prices.
Interest rate risk, defined as the exposure of net interest income and Economic Value of Equity, or “EVE,” to adverse movements in interest rates, is the Company’s primary market risk, and mainly arises from the structure of the balance sheet (non-trading activities). The Company is also exposed to market risk in its investing activities. The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee, or “ALCO,” meets regularly and is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. The policies established by the ALCO are reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The primary goal of interest rate risk management is to control exposure to interest rate risk, within policy limits approved by the Board. These limits reflect the Company’s tolerance for interest rate risk over short-term and long-term horizons.
The Company also performs valuation analyses, which are used for evaluating levels of risk present in the balance sheet that might not be taken into account in the net interest income simulation analyses. Whereas net interest income simulation highlights exposures over a relatively short time horizon, valuation analysis incorporates all cash flows over the estimated remaining life of all balance sheet positions. The valuation of the balance sheet, at a point in time, is defined as the discounted present value of asset cash flows minus the discounted value of liability cash flows, the net result of which is the EVE. The sensitivity of EVE to changes in the level of interest rates is a measure of the longer-term re-pricing risks and options risks embedded in the balance sheet. In contrast to the net interest income simulation, which assumes interest rates will change over a period of time, EVE uses instantaneous changes in rates.
EVE values only the current balance sheet, and does not incorporate the growth assumptions that are used in the net interest income simulation model. As with the net interest income simulation model, assumptions about the timing and variability of balance sheet cash flows are critical in the EVE analysis. Particularly important are the assumptions driving prepayments and the expected changes in balances and pricing of the indeterminate life deposit portfolios. Core deposits are a more significant funding source for the Company, making the lives attached to core deposits more important to the accuracy of our modeling of EVE. The Company periodically reassesses its assumptions regarding the indeterminate lives of core deposits utilizing an independent third party resource to assist. With lower interest rates over a prolonged period, the average lives of core deposits have trended higher and favorably impacted our model estimates of EVE for higher rates. Based on our second quarter 2018 modeling, an instantaneous 100 basis point increase in rates is estimated to increase the EVE 7.6% versus the EVE in a stable rate environment, while a 200 basis point increase in rates is estimated to increase the EVE 15.3%.
While an instantaneous and severe shift in interest rates is used in this analysis to provide an estimate of exposure under an extremely adverse scenario, a gradual shift in interest rates would have a much more modest impact. Since EVE measures the discounted present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments, the change in EVE does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon, i.e., the next fiscal year. Further, EVE does not take into account factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in product mix, change in yield curve relationships, and changing product spreads that could mitigate the adverse impact of changes in interest rates.
59
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s management, with the participation of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2018 and concluded that those disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred since the beginning of the Company’s first quarter of 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
While the Company believes that its existing disclosure controls and procedures have been effective to accomplish these objectives, the Company intends to continue to examine, refine and formalize its disclosure controls and procedures and to monitor ongoing developments in this area.
Part II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company and its subsidiaries, because of the nature of their business, are at all times subject to numerous legal actions, threatened or filed. Management presently believes that none of the legal proceedings to which it is a party are likely to have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, or operating results or cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should consider the factors discussed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and prospective results.
