NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We, Summit Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiaries, prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual year end financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

The results of operations for the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with our 2016 audited financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT NEW AUTHORITATIVE ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, (iv) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, (v) requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements and (viii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to securities available-for-sale. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for us on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) will, among other things, require lessees to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee‘s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use 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. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for us on January 1, 2019 and will require transition using a modified retrospective approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. While our full evaluation of the potential impact of ASU 2016-02 is ongoing, preliminarily, we expect that its adoption will not be significant to our financial statements.

ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 will be effective on January 1, 2020. An implementation committee has been formed and continues to plan for the standards' implementation and evaluate the impact of ASU 2016-13 on our financial statements.

ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments provides guidance related to certain cash flow issues in order to reduce the current and potential future diversity in practice. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for us on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Table of Contents

ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the current implementation guidance in Topic 805, there are three elements of a business-inputs, processes, and outputs. While an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a “set”) that is a business usually has outputs, outputs are not required to be present. In addition, all the inputs and processes that a seller uses in operating a set are not required if market participants can acquire the set and continue to produce outputs. The amendments in this ASU provide a screen to determine when a set is not a business. If the screen is not met, the amendments (1) require that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output and (2) remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. The ASU provides a framework to assist entities in evaluating whether both an input and a substantive process are present. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. No disclosures are required at transition. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-01 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost requires an employer that offers defined benefit pension plans, other postretirement benefit plans, or other types of benefits accounted for under Topic 715 to report the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same line item(s) as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The other components of net periodic benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component. If the other components of net periodic benefit cost are not presented on a separate line or lines, the line item(s) used in the income statement must be disclosed. In addition, only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization as part of an asset, when applicable. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-07 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017-08, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities purchased at a premium. Upon adoption of the standard, premiums on these qualifying callable debt securities will be amortized to the earliest call date. Discounts on purchased debt securities will continue to be accreted to maturity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Upon transition, entities should apply the guidance on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption and provide the disclosures required for a change in accounting principle. We are currently assessing the impact that ASU 2017-08 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

During May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting which provides guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards require an entity to apply modification accounting under Topic 718. The amendments are effective for all entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. We are currently assessing the impact that ASU 2017-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

During August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The amendments in this ASU modify the designation and measurement guidance for hedge accounting as well as provide for increased transparency regarding the presentation of economic results on both the financial statements and related footnotes. Certain aspects of hedge effectiveness assessments will also be simplified upon implementation of this update. The amendments are effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-12 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are included in the table below.

The following summarizes the methods and significant assumptions we used in estimating our fair value disclosures for financial instruments, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis.

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate their estimated fair value.

Securities: Estimated fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable securities.

Other investments: Other investments consists of FHLB stock, which does not have readily determinable fair values and is carried at cost and an investment in a limited partnership which owns interests in a diversified portfolio of qualified affordable housing projects which is reflected at its carrying value.

Loans held for sale: The carrying values of loans held for sale approximate their estimated fair values.

Loans: The estimated fair values for loans are computed based on scheduled future cash flows of principal and interest, discounted at interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. No prepayments of principal are assumed.

Accrued interest receivable and payable: The carrying values of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate their estimated fair values.

Deposits: The estimated fair values of demand deposits (i.e. non-interest bearing checking, NOW, money market and savings accounts) and other variable rate deposits approximate their carrying values. Fair values of fixed maturity deposits are

Table of Contents

estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology at rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. Any intangible value of long-term relationships with depositors is not considered in estimating the fair values disclosed.

Short-term borrowings: The carrying values of short-term borrowings approximate their estimated fair values.

Long-term borrowings: The fair values of long-term borrowings are estimated by discounting scheduled future payments of principal and interest at current rates available on borrowings with similar terms.

Subordinated debentures owed to unconsolidated subsidiary trusts: The carrying values of subordinated debentures owed to unconsolidated subsidiary trusts approximate their estimated fair values.

Derivative financial instruments: The fair value of the interest rate swaps is valued using independent pricing models.

Off-balance sheet instruments: The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present credit standing of the counter parties. The amounts of fees currently charged on commitments and standby letters of credit are deemed insignificant and therefore, the estimated fair values and carrying values are not shown below.

The carrying values and estimated fair values of our financial instruments are summarized below:

We held 81 available for sale securities having an unrealized loss at September 30, 2017. We do not intend to sell these securities, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases. We believe that this decline in value is primarily attributable to the lack of market liquidity and to changes in market interest rates and not due to credit quality. Accordingly, no other-than-temporary impairment charge to earnings is warranted at this time.

Provided below is a summary of securities available for sale which were in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Impaired loans: Impaired loans include the following:

▪

Loans which we risk-rate (consisting of loan relationships having aggregate balances in excess of $2.5 million, or loans exceeding $500,000 and exhibiting credit weakness) through our normal loan review procedures and which, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. Risk-rated loans with insignificant delays or insignificant short falls in the amount of payments expected to be collected are not considered to be impaired.


▪	Loans that have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring.

Both commercial and consumer loans are deemed impaired upon being contractually modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Troubled debt restructurings typically result from our loss mitigation activities and occur when we grant a concession to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty in order to minimize our economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral. Once restructured, a loan is generally considered impaired until its maturity, regardless of whether the borrower performs under the modified terms. Although such a loan may be returned to accrual status if the criteria set forth in our accounting policy are met, the loan would continue to be evaluated for an asset-specific allowance for loan losses and we would continue to report the loan in the impaired loan table below.

The following tables present loans individually evaluated for impairment at September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2016.

Included in impaired loans are TDRs of $29.1 million, of which $28.3 million were current with respect to restructured contractual payments at September 30, 2017, and $28.6 million, of which $28.1 million were current with respect to restructured contractual payments at December 31, 2016. There were no commitments to lend additional funds under these restructurings at either balance sheet date.

The following table presents by class the TDRs that were restructured during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 . Generally, the modifications were extensions of term, modifying the payment terms from principal and interest to interest only for an extended period, or reduction in interest rate. All TDRs are evaluated individually for allowance for loan loss purposes.

During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, four non-jumbo residential real estate loans and one land & land development loan that had been restructured within the past twelve months defaulted. A default is considered as either the loan was past due 30 days or more at any time during the period, or the loan was fully or partially charged off during the period.

The following tables detail the activity regarding TDRs by loan type, net of fees, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, and the related allowance on TDRs.

NOTE 8. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Effective July 1, 2017, we early adopted ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in this ASU, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

During third quarter 2017, we performed the qualitative assessment of the goodwill of our community banking and insurance services reporting units and determined that the fair values of the reporting units were more likely than not greater than their carrying values. In performing the qualitative assessments, we considered certain events and circumstances specific to each reporting unit, such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and cost factors when evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair values of our community banking or insurance services reporting units are less than their carrying values. No indicators of impairment for either reporting unit were noted as of September 30, 2017.

The following tables present our goodwill by reporting unit at September 30, 2017 and other intangible assets by reporting unit at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Long-term borrowings: Our long-term borrowings of $45.8 million, $46.7 million and $74.1 million at September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and September 30, 2016 respectively, consisted primarily of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and structured repurchase agreements with unaffiliated institutions. All FHLB advances are collateralized primarily by similar amounts of residential mortgage loans, certain commercial loans, mortgage backed securities and securities of U. S. Government agencies and corporations.



	Balance at September 30,				Balance at December 31,
Dollars in thousands	2017		2016		2016

Term loan	—		1,354		903
Total	$	45,755	$	74,146	$	46,670

At December 31, 2016, the term loan was secured by the common stock of our subsidiary bank, had a variable interest rate of prime minus 50 basis points and matured in second quarter 2017. Our long term FHLB borrowings and repurchase agreements bear both fixed and variable rates and mature in varying amounts through the year 2026.

The average interest rate paid on long-term borrowings for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017 was 4.32% compared to 4.43% for the first nine months of 2016.

Subordinated debentures owed to unconsolidated subsidiary trusts: We have three statutory business trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing mandatorily redeemable securities (the “capital securities”) for which we are obligated to third party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the capital securities in our junior subordinated debentures (the “debentures”). The debentures held by the trusts are their sole assets. Our subordinated debentures totaled $19.6 million at September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and September 30, 2016.

The capital securities held by SFG Capital Trust I, SFG Capital Trust II, and SFG Capital Trust III qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines. In accordance with these Guidelines, trust preferred securities generally are limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill. The amount of trust preferred securities and certain other elements in excess of the limit can be included in Tier 2 capital.

A summary of the maturities of all long-term borrowings and subordinated debentures for the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

NOTE 11. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2014 LTIP”) was adopted by our shareholders in May 2014 to enhance the ability of the Company to attract and retain exceptionally qualified individuals to serve as key employees. The LTIP provides for the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of common stock, in the form of equity awards including stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), performance units, other stock-based awards or any combination thereof, to our key employees.

Stock options awarded under the 2009 Officer Stock Option Plan and the 1998 Officer Stock Option Plan (collectively, the “Plans”) were not altered by the 2014 LTIP, and remain subject to the terms of the Plans. However, under the terms of the 2014 LTIP, all shares of common stock remaining issuable under the Plans at the time the 2014 LTIP was adopted ceased to be available for future issuance.

Under the 2014 LTIP and the Plans, stock options and SARs have generally been granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of Summit's common stock on the grant date. We periodically grant employee stock options to individual employees. During first quarter 2017, we granted 53,309 SARs that become exercisable ratably over five years (20% per year) and expire ten years after the grant date. We granted 34,306 SARS that become exercisable ratably over seven years (14.29% per year) and expire ten years after the grant date. There were no grants of stock options or SARs during the three months ended September 30, 2017 or the first nine months of 2016.

The fair value of our employee stock options and SARs granted under the Plans is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, changes to which can materially affect the fair value estimate. Additionally, there may be other factors that would otherwise have a significant effect on the value of employee stock options and SARs granted but are not considered by the model. Because our employee stock options and SARs have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options and SARs at the time of grant. The assumptions used to value SARs issued during 2017 were as follows:



	5-year vesting SARs		7-year vesting SARs
Risk-free interest rate	2.16	%	2.24	%
Expected dividend yield	1.45	%	1.45	%
Expected common stock volatility	60.05	%	59.60	%
Expected life	6.5 years		7.0 years

We recognize compensation expense based on the estimated number of stock awards expected to actually vest, exclusive of the awards expected to be forfeited. During the first nine months of 2017 and 2016, our share-based compensation expense was $285,000 and $150,000 and the related deferred tax benefits were approximately $105,000 and $56,000.

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are a party to certain financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial position. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement that we have in this class of financial instruments.

Many of our lending relationships contain both funded and unfunded elements. The funded portion is reflected on our balance sheet. The unfunded portion of these commitments is not recorded on our balance sheet until a draw is made under the loan facility. Since many of the commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flow requirements.

A summary of the total unfunded, or off-balance sheet, credit extension commitments follows:



Dollars in thousands	September 30, 2017
Commitments to extend credit:
Revolving home equity and credit card lines	$	68,616
Construction loans	56,715
Other loans	104,778
Standby letters of credit	3,469
Total	$	233,578

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. We evaluate each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if we deem necessary upon extension of credit, is based on our credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or real estate.

Table of Contents

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Standby letters of credit generally are contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party.

Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments.

Litigation

On May 13, 2014, the ResCap Liquidating Trust (“ResCap”), as successor to Residential Funding Company, LLC f/k/a Residential Funding Corporation (“RFC”), filed a complaint against Summit Financial Mortgage, LLC (“Summit Mortgage”), a former residential mortgage subsidiary of Summit whose operations were discontinued in 2007, in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and subsequently amended its complaint on July 25, 2014.

Furthermore, on January 23, 2017, ResCap, as successor to RFC (together with RFC, the "RFC Parties"), filed a complaint against Summit Community Bank, Inc., as successor to Shenandoah Valley Community Bank (“Summit”), in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota (collectively, the “ResCap Litigation”). Additional information regarding the ResCap Litigation is included under the caption “Legal Contingencies” in Note 17 of our consolidated financial statements beginning on page 92 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

On April 24, 2017, Summit Community Bank, Inc. entered into a Settlement and Release Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the RFC parties with respect to the Rescap Litigation. Under the Settlement Agreement, Summit Community Bank paid $9.9 million to fully resolve all claims by the RFC Parties, and to avoid the further costs, disruption, and distraction of defending the Rescap Litigation. Summit recorded a charge to noninterest expense in its consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 to recognize this settlement.

We are not a party to any other litigation except for matters that arise in the normal course of business. While it is impossible to ascertain the ultimate resolution or range of financial liability if any, with respect to these contingent matters, in the opinion of management, the outcome of these matters will not have a significant adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 13. REGULATORY MATTERS

We and our subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the banking regulatory agencies. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we and each of our subsidiaries must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our and our subsidiaries’ assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. We and each of our subsidiaries’ capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require us and each of our subsidiaries to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Common Equity Tier ("CET1") 1, Total capital and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). We believe, as of September 30, 2017, that we and each of our subsidiaries met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

The most recent notifications from the banking regulatory agencies categorized us and each of our subsidiaries as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, we and each of our subsidiaries must maintain minimum CET1, Total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below.

The Basel III Capital Rules became effective for us on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with all of the final rule's requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule, to be fully phased-in by January 1, 2019. As of September 30, 2017, our capital levels remained characterized as "well-capitalized" under the new rules. See the Capital Requirements section included in Part I Item 1 Business of our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of Basel III.

Table of Contents

The following table presents Summit's, as well as our subsidiary, Summit Community Bank's ("Summit Community"), actual and required minimum capital amounts and ratios as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 under the Basel III Capital Rules. The minimum required capital levels presented below reflect the minimum required capital levels (inclusive of the full capital conservation buffers) that will be effective as of January 1, 2019 when the Basel III Capital Rules have been fully phased-in. Capital levels required to be considered well capitalized are based upon prompt corrective action regulations, as amended to reflect the changes under the Basel III Capital Rules.

NOTE 16. ACQUISITIONS

FCB Acquisition

On April 1, 2017, Summit Community Bank, Inc. ("SCB"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit, acquired 100% of the ownership of First Century Bankshares, Inc. ("FCB") and its subsidiary First Century Bank, headquartered in Bluefield, West Virginia. Partnering with FCB not only expands Summit’s community banking footprint into southwest West Virginia and southwestern Virginia, it also notably will provide us the opportunity to offer trust services throughout our Bank’s market area, a capability which we currently do not possess. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 1, 2016, FCB's shareholders received cash in the amount of $22.50 per share or 1.2433 shares of Summit common stock, or a combination of cash and Summit stock, subject to proration to result in approximately 35% cash and 65% stock consideration in the aggregate. Total stock consideration was $33.1 million or 1,537,912 shares of Summit common stock and cash consideration was $15.0 million. FCB's assets and liabilities approximated $406 million and $361 million, respectively, at March 31, 2017.

The assets and liabilities of FCB were recorded at their respective acquisition date fair values. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, particularly related to the loan portfolio, is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate the estimated fair values. The fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the acquisition date as additional information relative to the acquisition date fair values becomes available. We recognized goodwill of $4.25 million in connection with the acquisition, which is not amortized for financial reporting purposes but is subject to annual impairment testing. The core deposit intangible represents the value of long-term deposit relationships acquired in this transaction and will be amortized over an estimated weighted average life of 15 years using an accelerated method which approximates the estimated run-off of the acquired deposits. The following table details the total consideration paid on April 1, 2017 in connection with the acquisition of FCB, the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the resulting goodwill.

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above.

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount of these assets approximates their fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.

Securities: Fair values for securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value estimates are based on observable inputs including quoted market prices for similar instruments, quoted market prices that are not in an active market or other inputs that are observable in the market.

Loans: Fair values for loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, collectibility, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, amortization status and current market rates. Loans were grouped together according to similar characteristics and were treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns, if any.

Premises and equipment: The fair value of FCB's real property was determined based upon appraisals by licensed appraisers. The fair value of tangible personal property, which is not material, was assumed to equal the carrying value by FCB.

Property held for sale: The fair value of FCB's property held for sale was determined on a property by property basis based upon the lessor of the properties present asking price or its appraised value by licensed appraisers, less estimated costs to sell.

Core deposit intangible: This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships with deposit customers. The fair value was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected

Table of Contents

customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, reserve requirements and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits.

Deposits: The fair values of the demand and savings deposits by definition equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to the contractual interest rates on such time deposits.

Loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition without the carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. Purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loans are those for which there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at the date of acquisition that we will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. When determining fair value, PCI loans are identified as of the date of acquisition based upon evidence of credit quality such as internal risk grades and past due and nonaccrual status. The difference between contractually required payments of principal and interest at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is accounted for as a "nonaccretable difference". For purposes of determining the nonaccretable difference, no prepayments are generally assumed in determining contractually required payments of principal and interest or cash flows expected to be collected. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in a provision for loan losses. Subsequent significant increases in cash flows may result in a reversal of the provision for loan losses to the extent of prior charges, or a transfer from nonaccretable difference to accretable yield. Further, any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is accounted for as accretable yield and is recognized as interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows.

Loans not designated PCI loans as of the acquisition date are designated purchased performing loans. We account for purchased performing loans using the contractual cash flows method of recognizing discount accretion based on the acquired loans’ contractual cash flows. Purchased performing loans are recorded at fair value, including a credit discount. The fair value discount is accreted as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans. There is no allowance for loan losses established at the acquisition date for purchased performing loans. A provision for loan losses is recorded for any deterioration in these loans subsequent to the acquisition.

The PCI loan portfolio related to the FCB acquisition was recorded at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition, April 1, 2017, as follows:



Dollars in thousands	Acquired Loans -PCI
Contractual principal and interest due	$	4,885
Nonaccretable difference	(597		)
Expected cash flows	4,288
Accretable yield	(661		)
Purchase credit impaired loans - estimated fair value	$	3,627

HCB Acquisition

On October 1, 2016, Summit Community Bank, Inc. ("SCB"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit, acquired 100% of the ownership of Highland County Bankshares, Inc. ("HCB") and its subsidiary First and Citizens Bank, headquartered in Monterey, Virginia for cash consideration of $21.8 million. HCB's assets and liabilities approximated $123 million and $107 million, respectively, at September 30, 2016.

Pro Forma

The following table estimates the pro forma revenue, net income and diluted earnings per share of the combined entities of Summit, HCB and FCB as if the acquisitions had taken place on January 1, 2016. All acquisition related expenses were excluded from the pro forma information.

Since results of the two acquisitions are included in our results from the acquisition dates forward, comparisons to prior periods are significantly impacted by the acquired companies' results.

Our primary source of income is net interest income from loans and deposits. Business volumes tend to be influenced by the overall economic factors including market interest rates, business spending, and consumer confidence, as well as competitive conditions within the marketplace.

Primarily due to our two recent acquisitions, interest earning assets increased by 27.39% for the first nine months in 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 while our net interest earnings on a tax equivalent basis increased 37.42%. Our tax equivalent net interest margin increased 27 basis points as our yield on interest earning assets increased 23 basis points while our cost of interest bearing funds decreased 3 basis points.

We recorded a charge of $9.9 million, or $6.2 million after-tax, to noninterest expense in the first quarter of 2017 to recognize our full resolution of the ResCap Litigation which had been pending since 2014.

BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS

We are organized and managed along three major business segments, as described in Note 14 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The results of each business segment are intended to reflect each segment as if it were a stand alone business. Net income by segment follows:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general practices within the financial services industry. Application of these principles requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.

Table of Contents

Our most significant accounting policies are presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements of our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These policies, along with the other disclosures presented in the financial statement notes and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined.

Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, we have identified the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of goodwill, fair value measurements, accounting for acquired loans and deferred tax assets to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments and as such could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to Critical Accounting Policies section in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2016 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in our application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2016.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Earnings Summary

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased to $9.6 million, or $0.81 per diluted share compared to $12.6 million, or $1.18 per diluted share for the same period of 2016. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 was $5.9 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, compared to $4.3 million, or $0.40 per diluted share for the same period of 2016. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to the charge for a $9.9 million pre-tax litigation settlement recognized in the first quarter of 2017. Otherwise, net income for the both the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2017, compared to earnings for the same periods of 2016, were positively impacted by increased net interest income and increased fee income including trust and wealth management fees and fees related to deposit accounts while being negatively impacted by smaller gains realized on sales of securities, smaller gains on sales of foreclosed properties, and generally higher operating expenses due to the two recent acquisitions mentioned below. Returns on average equity and assets for the first nine months of 2017 were 7.06% and 0.65%, respectively, compared with 11.29% and 1.09% for the same period of 2016.

FCB’s results of operations are included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition, and therefore our third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017 results reflect increased levels of average balances, income and expense as compared to the same periods of 2016 results. At consummation (prior to fair value acquisition adjustments), FCB had total assets of $406.2 million, net loans of $226.5 million, and deposits of $350.0 million.

HCB’s results of operations are included in our consolidated results of operation from the date of acquisition, and therefore our third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017 results reflect increased levels of average balances, income and expense as compared to the same periods of 2016 results. At consummation (prior to fair value acquisition adjustments), HCB had total assets of $122.8 million, loans of $60.8 million, and deposits of $106.9 million.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the principal component of our earnings and represents the difference between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Fluctuations in interest rates as well as changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities can materially impact net interest income. Due to increases in interest earnings assets and interest bearing liabilities from the HCB and FCB acquisitions and recent FOMC increases to its target Federal funds rate, we have experienced higher levels of net interest income and an increased net interest margin.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, our net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis increased $5.5 million to $17.9 million compared to $12.4 million for the quarter end September 30, 2016. Our tax-equivalent earnings on interest earning assets increased $6.4 million, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities increased $0.9 million (see Tables I and III).

Our net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis totaled $50.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, or $13.7 million or 37.4% more than the $36.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our tax-equivalent earnings on interest earning assets increased $16.2 million, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities also increased $2.4 million (see Tables II and III).

Table of Contents

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 average interest earning assets increased 30.7% to $1.94 billion compared to $1.49 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2016, while average interest bearing liabilities increased 28.2% from $1.29 billion at September 30, 2016 to $1.66 billion at September 30, 2017.

Average interest earning assets increased 27.4% from $1.44 billion during the first nine months of 2016 to $1.84 billion for the first nine months of 2017, while average interest bearing liabilities increased 25.6% from $1.26 billion at September 30, 2016 to $1.58 billion at September 30, 2017.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, our net interest margin increased to 3.65%, compared to 3.32% for the same period of 2016, as the yields on earning assets increased 27 basis points, while the cost of our interest bearing funds decreased by 4 basis points. Our net interest margin increased to 3.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 3.40% for the same period of 2016, as the yields on earning assets increased 23 basis points, while the cost of our interest bearing funds decreased by 3 basis points.

Excluding the impact of accretion and amortization of fair value acquisition accounting adjustments related to the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities acquired from FCB and HCB, Summit's net interest margin was 3.59% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 3.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Assuming no significant unanticipated changes in market interest rates, we expect growth in our net interest income to continue over the near term primarily due to continuing expected growth in loans. We continue to monitor the net interest margin through net interest income simulation to minimize the potential for any significant negative impact. See the “Market Risk Management” section for further discussion of the impact changes in market interest rates could have on us. Further analysis of our yields on interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities are presented in Tables I, II and III below.

Salaries, commissions, and employee benefits: These expenses are 37.2% and 30.1% higher in the first three and nine months of 2017, respectively, compared to first three and nine months of 2016 due to an increase in number of employees, primarily those in conjunction with the HCB and FCB acquisitions, and general merit raises.

Equipment: The increase in equipment expense is primarily increased depreciation and amortization related to various technological upgrades, both hardware and software, made during the past two years and also the FCB acquisition in Q2 2017.

Amortization of intangibles: Amortization of intangibles increased during 2017 as a result of the additional amortization of the core deposit intangibles associated with the HCB and FCB acquisitions.

FDIC premiums: FDIC premiums increased 55.0% and 1.9% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 as a result of the significant increase in our balance sheet due to recent acquisitions, partially offset by lower premium rates caused by the FDIC's change in the factors used to compute its deposit insurance rates, effective the second half of 2016. The lower effective premium rates are expected to continue.

Merger-related expense: These expenses are comprised of data processing conversion costs, employee severance costs, write-downs of equipment and legal fees related to the HCB and FCB acquisitions. Such costs are not expected to continue for the remainder of 2017.

Foreclosed properties expense: Management expects foreclosed properties expense to trend lower than in recent years due to lower levels of foreclosed properties.

Other: The increase in other expenses is primarily due to increased operating expenses as a result of the acquisitions of FCB and HCB and due to a charge for a municipal tax assessment.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 totaled $2.5 million and $2.1 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 our income tax expense totaled $3.3 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Our effective tax rate (income tax expense as a percentage of income before taxes) for the quarters ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was 29.5% and 32.8%, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were 25.8% and 31.0%, respectively. These decreases in effective rate are primarily attributable to our increased portfolio of tax-exempt municipal securities. Refer to Note 18 of the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our income taxes.

Credit Experience

For purposes of this discussion, we define nonperforming assets to include foreclosed properties, other repossessed assets, and nonperforming loans, which is comprised of loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest and nonaccrual loans. Performing TDRs are excluded from nonperforming loans.

The provision for loan losses represents charges to earnings necessary to maintain an adequate allowance for probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Our determination of the appropriate level of the allowance is based on an ongoing analysis of credit quality and loss potential in the loan portfolio, change in the composition and risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, and the anticipated influence of national and local economic conditions. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed quarterly and adjustments are made as considered necessary.

We recorded $875,000 and $500,000 provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016. The increase is primarily due to organic loan growth.

As illustrated in Table VII below, our non-performing assets have decreased since year end 2016.

Refer to Note 6 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding our past due loans, impaired loans, nonaccrual loans, and troubled debt restructurings and to Note 8 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements of our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of the methodology we employ on a quarterly basis to evaluate the overall adequacy of our allowance for loan losses.

Substantially all of our nonperforming loans are secured by real estate. The majority of these loans were underwritten in accordance with our loan-to-value policy guidelines which range from 70-85% at the time of origination. The fair values of the underlying collateral value or the discounted cash flows remain in excess of the recorded investment in many of our nonperforming loans and therefore, no specific reserve allocation is required.

At September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and September 30, 2016, respectively, our allowance for loan losses totaled $12.5 million, or 0.79% of total loans; $11.7 million, or 0.88% of total loans; and $11.6 million, or 0.93% of total loans. If the acquired FCB and HCB loans are excluded, the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 would have been 0.93% and 0.92%, respectively. The allowance for loan losses is considered adequate to cover our estimate of probable credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio. The 2017 and late 2016 decline in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans is a result of lower average loan losses experienced. Lower losses caused our historical charge-off factor of the quantitative reserve calculation to decline, thus requiring fewer quantitative reserves. Also contributing to this decline are purchased loans. Purchased loans are recorded on the balance sheet at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition without carryover of any related allowance for loan losses. Instead, the applicable fair value adjustment relative to each purchased loan includes a credit mark to provide for future, life-of-loan estimated credit losses at the date of acquisition.

Due to the loan portfolio acquired in conjunction with the FCB acquisition having a higher relative percentage of past due loans than that of Summit’s legacy portfolio, we experienced an overall increase in loans past due during the quarter ended September 30, 2017 (see Note 6 of the accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Again, in accordance with acquisition accounting principles, these past due loans were recorded at fair value, which included a discount adjustment as applicable for each such loan’s estimated future credit losses at the time of acquisition; accordingly, the past quarter’s increased levels of past due loans did not significantly impact the balance of our allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2017.

At September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and September 30, 2016, we had approximately $22.6 million, $24.5 million and $24.8 million, respectively, in other real estate owned which was obtained as the result of foreclosure proceedings. Although foreclosed property is recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell, the prices ultimately realized upon their sale may or may not result in us recognizing additional losses.

The following is a discussion of the other significant changes in our financial position during the first nine months of 2017 exclusive of the impact of the FCB acquisition:

Cash and cash equivalents and short-term borrowings: Net reduction of $34.5 million in cash and cash equivalents is primarily attributable to repayments of short-term Federal Home Loan Bank advances and the cash consideration of $15.0 million paid in conjunction with the FCB acquisition.

Securities available for sale: The net decrease of $38.6 million in securities available for sale is principally a result of a restructuring of the securities portfolio acquired from FCB wherein $94 million of the portfolio was sold, but only $54 million of the sale proceeds were reinvested.

Deposits: The net change in our deposits during the first nine months of 2017 resulted primarily from net reductions of $10 million in our time deposits, $37 million in our internet-only high yielding savings product and $8 million in our regular savings accounts, partially offset by an increase of $32 million in interest bearing checking accounts.

Shareholders' equity: Other significant changes in shareholders' equity are a result of net income, other comprehensive income and dividends.

Refer to Notes 5, 6, 9, and 10 of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information with regard to changes in the composition of our securities, loans, deposits and borrowings between September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Securities available for sale: The net decrease of $40.0 million in securities available for sale is principally a result of a restructuring of the securities portfolio acquired from FCB wherein $94 million of the portfolio was sold, but only $54 million of the sale proceeds were reinvested.

Long-term borrowings: The $28.4 million reduction in long-term borrowings was primarily the result of a maturing structured repurchase agreement in late 2016.

Shareholders' equity: Other significant changes in shareholders' equity are a result of net income, other comprehensive income and dividends.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity reflects our ability to ensure the availability of adequate funds to meet loan commitments and deposit withdrawals, as well as provide for other transactional requirements. Liquidity is provided primarily by funds invested in cash and due from banks (net of float and reserves), Federal funds sold, non-pledged securities, and available lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, which totaled approximately $916 million or 43.61% of total consolidated assets at September 30, 2017.

Table of Contents

Our liquidity strategy is to fund loan growth with deposits and other borrowed funds while maintaining an adequate level of short- and medium-term investments to meet normal daily loan and deposit activity. As a member of the FHLB, we have access to approximately $731 million. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, these advances totaled approximately $200 million and $222 million, respectively. At September 30, 2017, we had additional borrowing capacity of $531 million through FHLB programs. We have established a line with the Federal Reserve Bank to be used as a contingency liquidity vehicle. The amount available on this line at September 30, 2017 was approximately $159 million, which is secured by a pledge of our consumer and commercial and industrial loan portfolios. We have a $6 million unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank. Also, we classify all of our securities as available for sale to enable us to liquidate them if the need arises.

Liquidity risk represents the risk of loss due to the possibility that funds may not be available to satisfy current or future commitments based on external market issues, customer or creditor perception of financial strength, and events unrelated to Summit such as war, terrorism, or financial institution market specific issues. The Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), comprised of members of senior management and certain members of the Board of Directors, oversees our liquidity risk management process. The ALCO develops and recommends policies and limits governing our liquidity to the Board of

Directors for approval with the objective of ensuring that we can obtain cost-effective funding to meet current and future obligations, as well as maintain sufficient levels of on-hand liquidity, under both normal and “stressed” circumstances.

We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that day-to-day as well as anticipated funding needs are met. We are not aware of any trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that have resulted in or are reasonably likely to result in a material change to our liquidity.

One of our continuous goals is maintenance of a strong capital position. Through management of our capital resources, we seek to provide an attractive financial return to our shareholders while retaining sufficient capital to support future growth. Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2017 totaled $198.8 million compared to $155.4 million at December 31, 2016.

Refer to Note 13 of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding regulatory restrictions on our capital as well as our subsidiaries’ capital.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risk Management

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices. Interest rate risk is our primary market risk and results from timing differences in the repricing of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, changes in relationships between rate indices and the potential exercise of imbedded options. The principal objective of asset/liability management is to minimize interest rate risk and our actions in this regard are taken under the guidance of our Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is comprised of members of senior management and members of the Board of Directors. The ALCO actively formulates the economic assumptions that we use in our financial planning and budgeting process and establishes policies which control and monitor our sources, uses and prices of funds.

Some amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate to the banking business. Our net income is affected by changes in the absolute level of interest rates. Our interest rate risk position is slightly liability sensitive over the next twelve months, however we are asset sensitive thereafter. The nature of our lending and funding activities tends to drive our interest rate risk position to being liability sensitive. That is, absent any changes in the volumes of our interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities, liabilities are likely to reprice faster than assets, resulting in a decrease in net income in a rising rate environment. Net income would increase in a falling interest rate environment. Net income is also subject to changes in the shape of the yield curve. In general, a flattening yield curve would result in a decline in our earnings due to the compression of earning asset yields and funding rates, while a steepening would result in increased earnings as margins widen.

Several techniques are available to monitor and control the level of interest rate risk. We primarily use earnings simulations modeling to monitor interest rate risk. The earnings simulation model forecasts the effects on net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios that incorporate changes in the absolute level of interest rates and changes in the shape of the yield curve. Each increase or decrease in interest rates is assumed to gradually take place over the next 12 months, and then remain stable, except for the up 400 scenario, which assumes a gradual increase in rates over 24 months. Assumptions used to project yields and rates for new loans and deposits are derived from historical analysis. Securities portfolio maturities and prepayments are reinvested in like instruments. Mortgage loan prepayment assumptions are developed from industry estimates of prepayment speeds. Noncontractual deposit repricings are modeled on historical patterns.

The following table presents the estimated sensitivity of our net interest income to changes in interest rates, as measured by our earnings simulation model as of September 30, 2017. The sensitivity is measured as a percentage change in net interest income given the stated changes in interest rates (gradual change over 12 months, stable thereafter for the down 100 and the up 200 scenarios, and gradual change over 24 months for the up 400 scenario) compared to net interest income with rates unchanged in the same period. The estimated changes set forth below are dependent on the assumptions discussed above.



	Estimated % Change in Net Interest Income over:
Change in	0 - 12 Months		13 - 24 Months
Interest Rates	Actual		Actual
Down 100 basis points (1)	-0.10	%	0.80	%
Up 200 basis points (1)	-0.70	%	3.40	%
Up 400 basis points (2)	0.07	%	1.39	%
