UNIVEST FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Univest Financial Corporation (the Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Corporation’s direct subsidiary is Univest Bank and Trust Co. (the Bank). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations for interim financial information. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods presented. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2019 or for any other period. It is suggested that these unaudited consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes include fair value measurement of investment securities available-for-sale and reserve for loan and lease losses.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2019

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" and subsequent related updates to revise the accounting for leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases based on the present value of future lease payments using an estimated incremental borrowing rate. Lessor accounting activities are largely unchanged from existing lease accounting. Disclosures are required by lessees and lessors to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This new guidance was effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, or January 1, 2019 for the Corporation.

The Corporation adopted this guidance, and subsequent related updates, on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, representing the difference between the value of the Corporation’s lease liabilities and related right-of-use assets and the existing deferred rent liability, at January 1, 2019. The Corporation elected the package of practical expedients, which includes a provision which allows for the grandfathering of lease classification, among other items, and the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term. All leases in which the Corporation is the lessee were classified as operating leases and continue to be classified as such. On January 1, 2019, the Corporation recorded $39.6 million of operating lease liabilities and $36.6 million of related right-of-use assets and released $1.0 million of existing deferred rent liability. The resulting cumulative effect adjustment of $1.5 million, net of tax, was recorded to retained earnings at January 1, 2019. The initial and continued impact of the recording of operating lease assets had and will continue to have a negative impact on all Corporation and Bank regulatory capital ratios. Additionally, the Corporation early adopted (ASU) No. 2019-01, "Codification Improvements" , as of January 1, 2019, which serves as an an update to (ASU) No. 2016-02, and is effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, or January 1, 2020, for the Corporation. See Note 4, "Loans and Leases" and Note 14, "Leases" for applicable disclosures including quantitative and qualitative information about the Corporation’s leases.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities" and subsequent related updates. The amendments in this update expand and refine hedge accounting for both non-financial and financial risk components and aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. The ASU amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how entities assess effectiveness. The ASU eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and requires all items that affect earnings be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged items. The

Table of Contents

amendments in this guidance permit the use of the Overnight Index Swap rate based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes to facilitate the LIBOR to SOFR transition. This guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities, or January 1, 2019 for the Corporation. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance was required only prospectively. The Corporation adopted this guidance on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings effective January 1, 2019. The Corporation recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment of $83 thousand related to ineffectiveness on a cash flow hedge, which was reclassified from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive income, effective January 1, 2019.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.” This ASU shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date rather than the maturity of the security. Securities within the scope of this guidance are those that have explicit, non-contingent call features that are callable at fixed prices and on preset dates. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, or January 1, 2019 for the Corporation. At December 31, 2018, the Corporation had $11.3 million of callable debt securities. The Corporation adopted this guidance on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings effective January 1, 2019. The Corporation recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment resulting in a reduction in the unamortized premium balance for certain callable debt securities of $49 thousand and a reduction in retained earnings of approximately $39 thousand, net of tax, for the incremental amortization.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Yet to Be Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU requires businesses and other organizations to measure the current expected credit losses (CECL) on financial assets, such as loans, net investments in leases, certain debt securities, bond insurance and other receivables. The amendments affect entities holding financial assets and net investments in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. Current GAAP requires an incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The amendments in this ASU replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonableness and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. An entity should apply the amendments through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (modified-retrospective approach). Acquired credit impaired loans for which the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 310-30 has been previously applied should prospectively apply the guidance in this ASU. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized before the effective date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those years for public business entities that are SEC filers, or January 1, 2020 for the Corporation. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Corporation's financial statements; however, it is anticipated that the reserve for loan and lease losses will increase upon adoption of CECL and that the increased reserve level will decrease shareholders' equity and impact regulatory capital and ratios.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." This ASU applies to all entities that are required, under existing GAAP, to make disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements. Disclosures removed by this ASU are the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, the policy for timing of transfers between levels and the valuation processes for Level 3 measurements. This ASU modifies disclosures relating to investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value. Additional disclosures required by this ASU include: 1) change in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and 2) range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The prospective method of transition is required for the new disclosure requirements. The other amendments should be applied retrospectively. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years or January 1, 2020 for the Corporation. Early adoption is permitted. The Corporation does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements but will result in revised disclosures for fair value.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." This ASU eliminates Step 2 of 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. Under the new guidance, 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 should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds

Table of Contents

the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. Public business entities that are SEC filers should adopt the amendments in this ASU for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, or for the Corporation's goodwill impairment test in 2020. The Corporation does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, "Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans." The amendments in this ASU modify the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit plans or other postretirement plans. Disclosures removed by this ASU include the following: 1) amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized in net periodic benefit costs over the next fiscal year; 2) amount and timing of plan assets expected to be returned to the employer; and 3) the effects of a one percentage point change in assumed health care cost trend rates on the net periodic benefit costs and the benefit obligation for postretirement health care benefits. Additional disclosures required by this ASU include: 1) the weighted-average interest crediting rates used in an entity's cash balance pension plans and other similar plans and 2) explanations for reasons for significant changes in the benefit obligation or plan assets. All amendments should be applied retrospectively. This ASU is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020 or December 31, 2020 for the Corporation. The Corporation does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statement disclosures but will result in revised disclosures for retirement plans and other postretirement benefits.

Note 2. Earnings per Share

The Corporation uses the two-class method to calculate earnings per share as the unvested restricted stock awards outstanding under the Corporation's equity incentive plans are participating shares with nonforfeitable rights to dividends. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the number of weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if options on common shares had been exercised, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance, and if restricted stock units were vested. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Corporation relate to outstanding stock options and restricted stock units, and are determined using the treasury stock method. The effects of options to issue common stock and unvested restricted stock units are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which the effect would be antidilutive. Anti-dilutive options are those options with weighted average exercise prices in excess of the weighted average market value. Anti-dilutive restricted stock units are those with hypothetical repurchases of shares, under the treasury stock method, exceeding the average restricted stock units outstanding for the periods presented.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because debt issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without call or prepayment penalties and mortgage-backed securities typically prepay at a rate faster than contractually due.

Securities with a carrying value of $374.5 million and $344.5 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and other contractual obligations. In addition, securities of $298 thousand and $296 thousand were pledged to secure credit derivatives and interest rate swaps at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. See Note 11, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" for additional information.

At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no reportable investments in any single issuer representing more than 10% of shareholders’ equity.

The following table shows the fair value of securities that were in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 by the length of time those securities were in a continuous loss position. For the investment securities in an unrealized loss position, the Corporation has concluded, based on its analysis, that the unrealized losses are primarily caused by the movement of interest rates and current market conditions and are not other-than temporary impairment of the securities. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the par value of the investment. It is more likely than not that the Corporation will not be required to sell the investments before a recovery of carrying value.

At March 31, 2019, gross unrealized losses for securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer, totaled $9.7 million. Three federal agency bonds, thirty-three investment grade corporate bonds, 122 federal agency residential mortgage securities, two investment grade municipal bonds and two collateralized mortgage obligation bonds had respective unrealized loss positions of $46 thousand, $7.1 million, $2.4 million, $1 thousand and $63 thousand, respectively. The fair value of these 162 securities fluctuate with changes in market conditions which for these underlying securities is primarily due to changes in the interest rate environment. The Corporation does not intend to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position

and is unlikely to be required to sell these securities before a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity. Upon review of the attributes of the individual securities, the Corporation concluded these securities were not other-than-temporarily impaired. The Corporation did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment charges on debt securities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

The Corporation recognized a $4 thousand net gain and $4 thousand net loss on equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, in other noninterest income. There were no sales of equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 or March 31, 2018.

The following is a description of the internal risk ratings and the likelihood of loss related to each risk rating. Loans with a relationship balance of less than $1 million are reviewed on a performance basis, with the primary monitored metrics being delinquency (60 days or more past due). Loans with relationships greater than $1 million are reviewed at least annually. Loan relationships exceeding $15 million or classified as special mention or substandard are reviewed at least quarterly, or more frequently based on management’s discretion.


1.	Pass—Loans considered satisfactory with no indications of deterioration


2.	Special Mention—Potential weakness that deserves management's close attention


3.	Substandard—Well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt


4.	Doubtful—Collection or liquidation in-full, on the basis of current existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable

The Corporation does not provide a reserve for loan loss for acquired loans unless additional deterioration of the portfolio is identified over the projections utilized in the initial fair value analysis. After the acquisition measurement period, the present value of any decreases in expected cash flows of acquired credit impaired loans will generally result in an impairment charge recorded as a provision for loan loss.

Impaired loans include nonaccrual loans and accruing troubled debt restructured loans for which it is probable that not all principal and interest payments due will be collectible in accordance with the original contractual terms. These loans are individually measured to determine the amount of potential impairment. The loans are reviewed for impairment based on the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans and for certain loans based on discounted cash flows using the loans’ initial effective interest rates.

Table of Contents

The following presents by class of loans, the average recorded investment in impaired loans and an analysis of interest on impaired loans. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is an accruing troubled debt restructured loan or if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. Therefore, interest income on accruing impaired loans is recognized using the accrual method.

* The three loans in the above table were modified via the execution of a forbearance agreement. These loans relate to one borrower and were on nonaccrual status at the time of modification.

The Corporation grants concessions to existing borrowers primarily related to extensions of interest-only payment periods and an occasional payment modification. These modifications typically are for up to one year. The goal when restructuring a credit is to establish a reasonable period of time to provide cash flow relief to customers experiencing cash flow difficulties. Accruing troubled debt restructured loans are primarily comprised of loans on which interest is being accrued under the restructured terms, and the loans are current or less than ninety days past due.

Lease Financings

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", and subsequent related updates, to revise the accounting for leases. The Corporation adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis at January 1, 2019. Additionally, the Corporation early adopted (ASU) No. 2019-01, "Codification Improvements" , as of January 1, 2019, which serves as an an update to (ASU) No. 2016-02, and is effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, or January 1, 2020, for the Corporation. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2019" for additional information. Lessor accounting was largely unchanged as a result of the standard. Additional disclosures required under the standard are included in the following section.

The Corporation, through Univest Capital, Inc., an equipment financing business and a subsidiary of the Bank, provides lease financing to customers primarily in the form of sales-type leases with fixed payment terms and $1.00 dollar buyout clauses. A minor number of contracts are classified as either direct financing leases or operating leases. The fair value of the identified assets

within sales-type and direct financing leases are equal to the carrying amount such that there is no profit or loss recorded or deferred upon lease commencement. All receivables related to the equipment financing business are recorded within lease financings as of March 31, 2019.

The primary risks that are involved with lease financing receivables are credit underwriting and borrower industry concentrations. The Corporation has strict underwriting, review and monitoring procedures in place to mitigate this risk. Risk also lies in the residual value of the underlying equipment. Residual values are subject to judgments as to the value of the underlying equipment that can be affected by changes in economic and market conditions and the financial viability of the residual guarantors and insurers. To the extent not guaranteed or assumed by a third party, or otherwise insured against, the Corporation bears the risk of ownership of the leased assets. This includes the risk that the actual value of the leased assets at the end of the lease term will be less than the residual value. The Corporation greatly reduces this risk primarily by using $1.00 buyout leases, in which the entire cost of the leased equipment is included in the contractual payments, leaving no residual payment at the end of the lease term for the majority of its lease portfolio.

Lease financings are stated at net investment amount, consisting of the present value of lease payments and unguaranteed residual value, plus initial direct costs. Initial direct costs, comprised of commissions paid that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained, are deferred and amortized over the life of the contract, and are presented within net interest income on leases.

The following presents the schedule of minimum lease payments receivable:

For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Corporation recognized $2.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of interest income on lease financings within total interest and fees on loans and leases on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The Corporation did not record any profit or loss upon commencement date of its leases or any lease income related to variable lease payments.

Note 5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Corporation has core deposit and customer-related intangibles and servicing rights, which are not deemed to have an indefinite life and therefore will continue to be amortized over their useful life using the present value of projected cash flows. The Corporation also has goodwill which is deemed to be an indefinite intangible asset and is not amortized.

Changes in the carrying amount of the Corporation's goodwill by business segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were as follows:

The Corporation has originated mortgage servicing rights, which are included in other intangible assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Mortgage servicing rights are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing income on a basis similar to the interest method and an accelerated amortization method for loan payoffs. Mortgage servicing rights are subject to impairment testing on a quarterly basis. The aggregate fair value of these rights was $10.3 million at March 31, 2019 and $11.5 million at December 31, 2018. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was determined using a discount rate of 10.0% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Corporation also records servicing rights on small business administration (SBA) loans. The value of these servicing rights was $62 thousand and $42 thousand at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Changes in the servicing rights balance are summarized as follows:

Note 8. Retirement Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits

Substantially all employees who were hired before December 8, 2009 are covered by a noncontributory retirement plan. Employees hired on or after December 8, 2009 are not eligible to participate in the noncontributory retirement plan. The Corporation also provides supplemental executive retirement benefits to certain former executives, a portion of which is in excess of limits imposed on qualified plans by federal tax law. These plans are non-qualified benefit plans. These non-qualified benefit plans are not offered to new participants and all current participants are now retired. Information on these plans are aggregated and reported under “Retirement Plans” within this footnote.

The Corporation also provides certain postretirement healthcare and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Information on these benefits is reported under “Other Postretirement Benefits” within this footnote.

The Corporation sponsors a Supplemental Non-Qualified Pension Plan, which was established in 1981 prior to the existence of the 401(k) deferred salary savings plan, employee stock purchase plan and long-term incentive plans and therefore is not offered to new participants. All current participants are now retired.

The Corporation previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 that it expected to make contributions of $157 thousand to its non-qualified retirement plans and $89 thousand to its other postretirement benefit plans in 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Corporation contributed $40 thousand to its non-qualified retirement plans and $26 thousand to its other postretirement plans. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, $647 thousand was paid to participants from the retirement plans and $26 thousand was paid to participants from the other postretirement plans.

Note 9. Stock-Based Incentive Plan

The Corporation has a shareholder approved 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which replaced the expired 2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan. In December 2018, the Corporation's Board of Directors approved an Amended and Restated Univest 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the Plan) to allow for the issuance of restricted stock units.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Corporation issued to directors and employees (“grantees”) restricted stock units rather than restricted stock awards or stock options, which were issued to grantees in prior reporting periods. Restricted stock units differ from restricted stock awards in that Corporation stock is not issued to grantees at the date of the grant and the grantee does not have voting or dividend rights during the vesting period. In the following schedules, issued restricted stock units have been combined with restricted stock awards, as the determination of the value at the grant date and methodology for recording stock-based compensation expense is the same for restricted stock units and restricted stock awards.

The following is a summary of the Corporation's stock option activity and related information for the three months ended March 31, 2019:

Note 11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Interest Rate Swaps

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities" and subsequent related updates. The Corporation adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019, on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at January 1, 2019. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2019" for additional information.

The Corporation may use interest rate swap agreements to modify interest rate characteristics from variable to fixed or fixed to variable in order to reduce the impact of interest rate changes on future net interest income. Recorded amounts related to interest-rate swaps are included in other assets or liabilities. The Corporation’s credit exposure on interest rate swaps includes fair value and any collateral that is held by a third party. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated as hedges of future cash flows are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying transactions occur, at which time the deferred gains and losses are recognized in earnings. For a qualifying fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized in earnings, and the change in fair value of the hedge item, to the extent attributable to the hedged risk, adjusts the carrying amount of the hedge item and is recognized in earnings.

In 2014, the Corporation entered into an amortizing interest rate swap classified as a cash flow hedge with a notional amount of $20.0 million to hedge a portion of the debt financing of a pool of 10-year fixed rate loans with balances totaling $29.1 million, at time of the hedge, that were originated in 2013. A brokered money market demand account with a balance exceeding the

Table of Contents

amortizing interest rate swap balance is being used for the cash flow hedge. Under the terms of the swap agreement, the Corporation pays a fixed rate of 2.10% and receives a floating rate of one-month LIBOR. The swap matures in November 2022. The Corporation performed an assessment of the hedge for effectiveness at the inception of the hedge and on a recurring basis to determine that the derivative has been and is expected to continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. At March 31, 2019, approximately $81 thousand in net deferred gains, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss are expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months. This amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations, and the addition of other hedges subsequent to March 31, 2019. At March 31, 2019, the notional amount of the interest rate swap was $16.9 million, with a positive fair value of $24 thousand.

The Corporation has an interest rate swap classified as a fair value hedge with a current notional amount of $1.3 million to hedge a 10-year fixed rate loan that is earning interest at 5.83%. The Corporation pays a fixed rate of 5.83% and receives a floating rate based on the one-month LIBOR plus 350 basis points. The swap matures in October 2021. Effective January 1, 2019, the entire change in the fair values of the interest rate swap and the hedged loan included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness is recorded in interest income in the consolidated statements of operations. Prior to January 1, 2019, the difference between changes in the fair values of the interest rate swap agreement and the hedged loan represented hedge ineffectiveness and was recorded in other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Corporation has an interest rate swap with a current notional amount of $390 thousand, for a 15-year fixed rate loan that is earning interest at 7.43%. The Corporation pays a fixed rate of 7.43% and receives a floating rate based on the one-month LIBOR plus 224 basis points. The swap matures in April 2022. The interest rate swap is carried at fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging." The loan is carried at fair value under the fair value option as permitted by FASB ASC 825 "Financial Instruments."

Credit Derivatives

The Corporation has agreements with third-party financial institutions whereby the third-party financial institution enters into interest rate derivative contracts with loan customers referred to them by the Corporation. By the terms of the agreements, the third-party financial institution has recourse to the Corporation for any exposure created under each swap contract in the event the customer defaults on the swap agreement and the agreement is in a paying position to the third-party financial institution. These transactions represent credit derivatives and are a customary arrangement that allows the Corporation to provide access to interest rate transactions for customers without creating the swap. The Corporation records the fair value of credit derivatives in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation recognizes changes in the fair value of credit derivatives, net of any fees received, in other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.

At March 31, 2019, the Corporation has twenty-two variable-rate to fixed-rate interest rate swap transactions between the third-party financial institution and customers with a current notional amount of $150.1 million and remaining maturities ranging from less than one year to 10 years. At March 31, 2019, the fair value of the swaps to the customers was a net liability of $2.8 million and $87.7 million of notional amount of the swaps were in paying positions while $62.4 million were in receiving positions to the third-party financial institution. At March 31, 2019, the fair value of the Corporation's interest rate swap credit derivatives was a liability of $79 thousand.

The maximum potential payments by the Corporation to the third-party financial institution under these credit derivatives are not estimable as they are contingent on future interest rates and the agreement does not provide for a limitation of the maximum potential payment amount.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives

Derivative loan commitments represent agreements for delayed delivery of financial instruments in which the buyer agrees to purchase and the seller agrees to deliver, at a specified future date, a specified instrument at a specified price or yield. The Corporation’s derivative loan commitments are commitments to sell loans secured by 1-to 4-family residential properties whose predominant risk characteristic is interest rate risk. The fair values of these derivative loan commitments are based upon the estimated amount the Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the contracts or agreements, taking into account current interest rates and, when appropriate, the current creditworthiness of the counterparties.

Note 12. Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Corporation determines the fair value of financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy. The Corporation maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Corporation. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Corporation’s assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances, including assumptions about risk. Three levels of inputs are used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement. Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period.

Level 1: Valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Corporation can access at the measurement date. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment.

Level 2: Valuations are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: Valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include: financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash-flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the fair value calculation requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Investment Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market for identical instruments, investment securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 investment securities include U.S. Treasury securities, most equity securities and money market mutual funds. Mutual funds are registered investment companies which are valued at net asset value of shares on a market exchange at the end of each trading day. Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy includes securities issued by U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, corporate and municipal bonds and certain equity securities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. In cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, investment securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Fair values for securities are determined using independent pricing services and market-participating brokers. The Corporation’s independent pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available

Table of Contents

trade, bid and other market information for structured securities, cash flow and, when available, loan performance data. Because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, the pricing service’s evaluated pricing applications apply information as applicable through processes, such as benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing, to prepare evaluations. If at any time, the pricing service determines that it does not have sufficient verifiable information to value a particular security, the Corporation will utilize valuations from another pricing service. Management has a sufficient understanding of the third party service’s valuation models, assumptions and inputs used in determining the fair value of securities to enable management to maintain an appropriate system of internal control.

Certain corporate bonds owned by the Corporation are classified as Level 3 as they are not traded in active markets. The fair value of each bond is estimated by benchmarking similar transactions of structure, yield and credit which are owned by the Corporation and are actively traded in the market.

On a quarterly basis, the Corporation reviews changes, as submitted by the pricing service, in the market value of its security portfolio. Individual changes in valuations are reviewed for consistency with general interest rate movements and any known credit concerns for specific securities. If, upon the Corporation’s review or in comparing with another service, a material difference between pricing evaluations were to exist, the Corporation may submit an inquiry to the current pricing service regarding the data used to determine the valuation of a particular security. If the Corporation determines there is market information that would support a different valuation than from the current pricing service’s evaluation, the Corporation may utilize and change the security's valuation. There were no material differences in valuations noted at March 31, 2019.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The fair values of derivative financial instruments are based upon the estimated amount the Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the contracts or agreements, taking into account current interest rates and, when appropriate, the current creditworthiness of the counterparties. Interest rate swaps and mortgage banking derivative financial instruments are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Credit derivatives are valued based on credit worthiness of the underlying borrower which is a significant unobservable input and therefore classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Two commercial loans associated with interest rate swaps are classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy since lending credit risk is not an observable input for these loans. The unrealized gain on the two loans was $28 thousand at March 31, 2019.

Contingent Consideration Liability

The Corporation estimates the fair value of the contingent consideration liability by using a discounted cash flow model of future contingent payments based on projected revenue related to the acquired business. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability is reviewed on a quarterly basis and any valuation adjustments resulting from a change of estimated future contingent payments based on projected revenue of the acquired business affecting the contingent consideration liability will be recorded through noninterest expense. Due to the significant unobservable input related to the projected revenue, the contingent consideration liability is classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. An increase in the projected revenue may result in a higher fair value of the contingent consideration liability. Alternatively, a decrease in the projected revenue may result in a lower estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability.

Table of Contents

The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating the fair value for financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis in the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheets but for which the fair value is required to be disclosed:

Cash and short-term interest-earning assets: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and due from banks, interest-earning deposits with other banks, federal funds sold and other short-term investments is their stated value. Cash and short-term interest-earning assets are classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Held-to-maturity securities: Fair values for the held-to-maturity investment securities are estimated by using pricing models or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank and other stock: It is not practical to determine the fair values of Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank and other stock, due to restrictions placed on their transferability.

Loans held for sale: The fair value of the Corporation’s mortgage loans held for sale are generally determined using a pricing model based on current market information obtained from external sources, including interest rates, bids or indications provided by market participants on specific loans that are actively marketed for sale. These loans are primarily residential mortgage loans and are generally classified in Level 2 due to the observable pricing data. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. There were no valuation adjustments for loans held for sale at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Loans and leases held for investment: The fair values for loans and leases held for investment are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using a discount rate based on current interest rates at which similar loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers, adjusted as appropriate to consider credit, liquidity and marketability factors to arrive at a fair value that represents the Corporation's exit price at which these instruments would be sold or transferred. Loans and leases are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy since credit risk is not an observable input.

Impaired loans and leases held for investment: For impaired loans and leases, the Corporation uses a variety of techniques to measure fair value, such as using the current appraised value of the collateral, agreements of sale, discounting the contractual cash flows, and analyzing market data that the Corporation may adjust due to specific characteristics of the loan/lease or collateral. At March 31, 2019, impaired loans held for investment had a carrying amount of $24.5 million with a valuation allowance of $1.5 million. At December 31, 2018, impaired loans held for investment had a carrying amount of $26.6 million with a valuation allowance of $$1.4 million. The Corporation had no impaired leases at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Servicing rights: The Corporation estimates the fair value of mortgage servicing rights using discounted cash flow models that calculate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model uses readily available prepayment speed assumptions for the interest rates of the portfolios serviced. Mortgage servicing rights are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy based upon management's assessment of the inputs. The Corporation reviews the mortgage servicing rights portfolio on a quarterly basis for impairment and the mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. The Corporation also records servicing rights on SBA loans. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, servicing rights had a carrying amount of $6.7 million and $6.7 million, respectively, with no valuation allowance.

Goodwill and other identifiable assets: Certain non-financial assets subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were no triggering events that required valuation of goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets.

Other real estate owned: The fair value of other real estate owned (OREO) is originally estimated based upon the appraised value less estimated costs to sell. The fair value less cost to sell becomes the "original cost" of the OREO asset. Subsequently, OREO is reported at the lower of the original cost or the current fair value less cost to sell. Capital improvement expenses associated with the construction or repair of the property are capitalized as part of the cost of the OREO asset; however, the capitalized expenses may not increase the OREO asset's recorded value to an amount greater than the asset's fair value after improvements and less cost to sell. New appraisals are generally obtained on an annual basis if an agreement of sale does not exist. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, one property was sold with total proceeds of $599 thousand. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, OREO had a carrying amount of $540 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively. Other real estate owned is classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy due to the unique characteristics of the collateral for each loan.

Deposit liabilities: The fair values for demand and savings accounts, with no stated maturities, is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (carrying value) and are classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values for time deposits with fixed maturities are estimated by discounting the final maturity using interest rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. Time deposits are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Table of Contents

Short-term borrowings: The fair value of short-term borrowings are estimated using current market rates for similar borrowings and are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Long-term debt: The fair value of long-term debt is estimated by using discounted cash flow analysis, based on current market rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Long-term debt is classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Subordinated notes: The fair value of the subordinated notes are estimated by discounting the principal balance using the treasury yield curve for the term to the call date as the Corporation has the option to call the subordinated notes. The subordinated notes are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Off-balance-sheet instruments: Fair values for the Corporation’s off-balance-sheet instruments are based on the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing and are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Note 13. Segment Reporting

At March 31, 2019, the Corporation has three reportable business segments: Banking, Wealth Management and Insurance. The Corporation determines the segments based primarily upon product and service offerings, through the types of income generated and the regulatory environment. This is strategically how the Corporation operates and has positioned itself in the marketplace. Accordingly, significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of each of these segments. The parent holding company and intercompany eliminations are included in the "Other" segment.

The Corporation's Banking segment consists of commercial, consumer and mortgage banking as well as lease financing. The Wealth Management segment consists of investment advisory services, retirement plan services, trust, municipal pension services and broker/dealer services. The Insurance segment consists of commercial lines, personal lines, benefits and human resources consulting.

Each segment generates revenue from a variety of products and services it provides. Examples of products and services provided for each reportable segment are indicated below.



●	The Banking segment provides financial services to individuals, businesses, municipalities and nonprofit organizations. These services include a full range of banking services such as deposit taking, loan origination and servicing, mortgage banking, other general banking services and equipment lease financing.
●	The Wealth Management segment offers trust and investment advisory services, guardian and custodian of employee benefits and other trust and brokerage services, as well as a registered investment advisory managing private investment accounts for both individuals and institutions.
●	The Insurance segment includes a full-service insurance brokerage agency offering commercial property and casualty insurance, group life and health coverage, employee benefit solutions, personal insurance lines and human resources consulting.

The following table provides total assets by reportable business segment as of the dates indicated.

Note 14. Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", and subsequent related updates, to revise the accounting for leases. The Corporation adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019, on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at January 1, 2019. Additionally, the Corporation early adopted (ASU) No. 2019-01, "Codification Improvements" , as of January 1, 2019, which serves as an an update to (ASU) No. 2016-02, and is effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, or January 1, 2020, for the Corporation. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2019" for additional information.

The Corporation and its subsidiaries are obligated under non-cancelable operating leases for premises for certain financial centers and other office locations The Corporation determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception by assessing whether a contract contains a right to control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet commencing at January 1, 2019. For purposes of calculating operating lease liabilities, lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Corporation will exercise that option and begins when the Corporation has control and possession of the leased property, which may be before rental payments are due under the lease. Right-of use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments, discounted using the Corporation’s incremental

Table of Contents

borrowing rate, over the lease term at the commencement date. The Corporation determines its incremental borrowing rate using publicly available information available for debt issuers with similar credit ratings as the Bank, as the majority of the Corporation’s leases are related to properties of the Bank. The Corporation continues to separately account for lease and non-lease components (such as property taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs) as historically reported. Rent expense for the Corporation's leases, which generally have escalating rental payments over the term of the lease, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms generally containing one or more five-year renewal options. At March 31, 2019, the Corporation's leases have remaining terms of 1 to 24 years. The Corporation does not currently have any leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, including reasonably certain renewal terms; any such future leases will be recorded on the balance sheet.

General

The Corporation is a Pennsylvania corporation, organized in 1973 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the

Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. Effective January 1, 2019, the name of the Corporation was changed from Univest Corporation of Pennsylvania to Univest Financial Corporation. The Corporation owns all of the capital stock of Univest Bank and Trust Co. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and the Bank.

Through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank provides a variety of financial services for individuals, businesses, municipalities and non-profit organizations. Effective January 1, 2019, the Bank's wealth management segment was re-branded under the Girard name with associated name changes of several subsidiaries while continuing to provide fiduciary services, investment management, and financial and retirement planning. The Bank is the parent company of Girard Investment Services, LLC (formerly Univest Investments, Inc.), a full-service registered broker-dealer and a licensed insurance agency, Girard Advisory Services, LLC (formerly Girard Partners Ltd.), a registered investment advisory firm, Girard Pension Services, LLC (formerly TCG Investment Advisory, Inc.), a registered investment advisor, which provides investment consulting and management services to municipal entities. The Bank is also the parent company of Univest Insurance, LLC, an independent insurance agency and Univest Capital, Inc., an equipment financing business. The Bank's former subsidiary, Delview, Inc. was dissolved effective January 1, 2019.

The Corporation earns revenue primarily from the margins and fees generated from lending and depository services to customers as well as fee-based income from trust, insurance, mortgage banking and investment services to customers. The Corporation seeks to achieve adequate and reliable earnings through business growth while maintaining adequate levels of capital and liquidity and limiting exposure to credit and interest rate risk.

The Corporation seeks to establish itself as the financial provider of choice in the markets it serves. The Corporation plans to achieve this goal by offering a broad range of high quality financial products and services and by increasing market awareness of its brand and the benefits that can be derived from its products and services. The Corporation operates in attractive markets for financial services but also faces intense competition from domestic and international banking organizations and other insurance and wealth management providers. The Corporation has taken initiatives to achieve its business objectives by acquiring banks and other financial service providers in strategic markets, through marketing, public relations and advertising, by establishing standards of service excellence for customers, and by using technology to ensure that the needs of customers are understood and satisfied.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on loans and leases, investments and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is the principal source of the Corporation’s revenue. Table 1 presents a summary of the Corporation’s average balances, tax-equivalent interest income, interest expense, the tax-equivalent yields earned on average assets, the cost of average liabilities, and shareholders’ equity on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The tax-equivalent net interest margin is tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The tax-equivalent net interest spread represents the weighted average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets less the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The effect of net interest- free funding sources represents the effect on the net interest margin of net funding provided by noninterest-earning assets, noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders’ equity. Table 2 analyzes the changes in the tax-equivalent net interest income for the periods broken down by their rate and volume components.

Table 1, Table 2, and the interest income and net interest income analysis contain tax-equivalent financial information and measures determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The management of the Corporation uses this non-GAAP financial information and measures in its analysis of the Corporation's performance. This financial information and measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis financial information or measures nor should they be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of the non-GAAP financial information and measures provide useful information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of the Corporation.

Three months ended March 31, 2019 versus 2018

Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $42.2 million, an increase of $4.2 million, or 11.2%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in tax-equivalent net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily due to the growth in average loans of 10.5% as well as modest net interest margin expansion.

The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the first quarter of 2019 was 3.75%, compared to 3.72% for the first quarter of 2018. The favorable impact of purchase accounting accretion was one basis point for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to two basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Interest Income

Three months ended March 31, 2019 versus 2018

Interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $53.0 million, an increase of $8.8 million, or 19.9%, from the same period in 2018. The increase in interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to organic loan growth in commercial real estate and residential real estate loans and an increase in loan yields primarily for commercial business and commercial real estate loans as the Federal Reserve increased interest rates 100 basis points in 2018. The favorable impact of purchase accounting accretion on interest-earning assets was one basis point for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to no impact on the yield on interest-earning assets for the same period in the prior year.

Interest Expense

Three months ended March 31, 2019 versus 2018

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $10.8 million, an increase of $4.6 million, or 73.1%, from the same period in 2018. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to higher deposit costs, which were impacted by the Federal Reserve interest rate increases in 2018. In addition, average deposits grew 15.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The favorable impact of purchase accounting amortization on interest-bearing liabilities was one basis point for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to a favorable impact of three basis points for the same period in the prior year.

Investment advisory commission and fee income increased $106 thousand, or 2.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to new customer relationships, which were partially offset by market declines in the fourth quarter of 2018. Insurance commission and fee income increased $256 thousand, or 5.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to an increase in premiums for group life and health and commercial lines and an increase in contingent commission income of $111 thousand, which was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Contingent commission income is largely recognized in the first quarter of the year. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $108 thousand, or 8.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to increased fee income on cash management accounts. Other service fee income increased $98 thousand, or 4.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to increases in debit card interchange income, wire transfer fees and human resource consulting services within the insurance line of business. BOLI income increased $283 thousand, or 42.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to an increase in value of our non-qualified annuity portfolio of $249 thousand in the first quarter of 2019 compared to a decrease of $29 thousand in the first quarter of 2018. The value of the non-qualified annuity portfolio declined $287 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2018. During the first quarter of 2019, in order to reduce future volatility, the Corporation transferred the funds invested within the non-qualified annuity portfolio to a stable fund investment strategy. Other income increased $215 thousand, or 173.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to fees on risk participation agreements of $264 thousand related to increased customer activity compared to fees of $4 thousand in the same period of the prior year.

These increases were partially offset by a decrease in net gain on mortgage banking activities of $233 thousand, or 32.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to the Bank retaining, on balance-sheet, a higher percentage of its mortgage originations, as well as a contraction in margins to remain price competitive. Such on balance-sheet loans are predominantly hybrid adjustable rate mortgages. Trust fee income decreased $109 thousand, or 5.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to March 31, 2018, primarily due to a decrease in activity-based trust estate fees and assets under management.

Three months ended March 31, 2019 versus 2018

Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $35.6 million, an increase of $432 thousand, or 1.2%, from the three months ended March 31, 2018. Salaries, benefits and commissions increased $917 thousand, or 4.4%, primarily attributable to additional staff hired to support revenue generation across all business lines, expansion of our commercial lending group in Lancaster County and annual merit increases. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Corporation hired a team of eight commercial lenders and support staff which will focus on increasing the Bank's presence in Western Lancaster and York Counties. Data processing expense increased $282 thousand, or 12.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to continued investments in customer relationship management software, internal infrastructure improvements and outsourced

data processing solutions. Other expense increased $264 thousand, or 5.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to increases in interchange expense and corporate development expense.

These increases were partially offset by a decrease in net occupancy and equipment expense totaling $179 thousand, or 4.7%, primarily due to the closure of three financial service locations during April 2018. Intangibles expense decreased $186 thousand, or 30.4%, due to run-off of intangible assets. In addition, restructuring costs related to financial center closures and staffing rationalization were $571 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2018. There were no restructuring costs during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Tax Provision

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $3.5 million and $2.8 million, at effective rates of 17.9% and 18.0%, respectively. The Corporation's effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were favorably impacted by discrete tax benefits. Excluding these items, the effective tax rate was 18.2% and 18.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Investment Securities

Total investments securities at March 31, 2019 decreased $6.4 million from December 31, 2018. Maturities and pay-downs of $20.6 million, calls of $770 thousand, sales of $491 thousand, net amortization of purchased premiums and discounts of $537 thousand were partially offset by purchases of $10.9 million and increases in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities of $5.1 million. The increase in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities was due to the flattening of the yield curve.

Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank and other stock, at cost

The Bank is a member of the FHLB, and as such, is required to hold FHLB stock as a condition of membership as determined by the FHLB. The Bank is required to hold additional stock in the FHLB in relation to the level of outstanding borrowings. The Bank held FHLB stock of $18.0 million and $13.6 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. FHLB stock increased $4.4 million mainly due to purchase requirements related to the increase in FHLB borrowing volume during the quarter.

The Bank held $14.6 million in Federal Reserve Bank stock as required by the Federal Reserve Bank at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Loans and Leases

Gross loans and leases held for investment grew $61.3 million, or 1.5%, from December 31, 2018. The growth in loans was primarily in commercial real estate and residential real estate loans.

Asset Quality

The Bank's strategy for credit risk management focuses on having well-defined credit policies and uniform underwriting criteria and providing prompt attention to potential problem loans and leases. Performance of the loan and lease portfolio is monitored on a regular basis by Bank management and lending officers.

Loans and leases are deemed impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all proceeds due according to the original contractual terms of the agreement or when a loan or lease is classified as a troubled debt restructuring. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, borrower cash flows, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due.

When a loan or lease, including a loan or lease that is impaired, is classified as nonaccrual, the accrual of interest on such a loan or lease is discontinued. A loan or lease is typically classified as nonaccrual when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about the further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan or lease is currently performing. A loan or lease may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan or lease is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed and the amortization of net deferred fees and costs is suspended. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans and leases are either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the ultimate collectability of principal.

Loans or leases are usually restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.

At March 31, 2019, the recorded investment in loans held for investment that were considered to be impaired was $26.0 million. The related reserve for loan losses was $1.5 million. At December 31, 2018, the recorded investment in loans that were considered to be impaired was $26.6 million. The related reserve for loan losses was $1.4 million. The impaired loan balances consisted mainly of commercial real estate loans and business loans. Impaired loans include nonaccrual loans and leases and accruing troubled debt restructured loans and lease modifications for which it is probable that not all principal and interest payments due will be collectible in accordance with the original contractual terms. The amount of the specific reserve needed for these credits could change in future periods subject to changes in facts and judgments related to these credits. Specific reserves have been established based on current facts and management’s judgments about the ultimate outcome of these credits.

Other real estate owned was $540 thousand at March 31, 2019, compared to $1.2 million at December 31, 2018. During the first quarter of 2019, a commercial real estate property with a carrying value of $654 thousand was sold for a loss of $55 thousand.

Reserve for Loan and Lease Losses

The reserve for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level representing management's best estimate of known risks and inherent losses in the portfolio, based upon management's evaluation of the portfolio's collectability. Management evaluates the need to establish reserves against losses on loans and leases on a quarterly basis. When changes in the reserve are necessary, an adjustment is made.

The reserve for loan and lease losses consists of a reserve for impaired loans and leases and a general valuation allowance on the remainder of the originated portfolio. Although management determines the amount of each element of the reserve separately, the entire reserve for loan and lease losses is available for losses in the portfolio. The Corporation does not provide a reserve for loan losses for acquired loans unless additional deterioration of the portfolio is identified over the projections utilized in the initial fair value analysis. After the acquisition measurement period, the present value of any decreases in expected cash flows of acquired credit impaired loans will generally result in an impairment charge recorded as a provision for loan losses.

The Corporation maintains a reserve in other liabilities for off-balance sheet credit exposures that currently are unfunded in categories with historical loss experience. The reserve for these off-balance sheet credits was $421 thousand and $426 thousand at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets have been recorded on the books of the Corporation in connection with acquisitions. The Corporation has core deposit and customer-related intangibles and servicing rights, which are not deemed to have an indefinite life and therefore will continue to be amortized over their useful life using the present value of projected cash flows. The amortization of intangible assets was $725 thousand and $899 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," for a summary of intangible assets at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The Corporation also has goodwill with a net carrying value of $172.6 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which is deemed to be an indefinite intangible asset and is not amortized. The Corporation completes a goodwill impairment analysis at least on an annual basis, or more often, if events and circumstances indicate that there may be impairment. The Corporation also completes an impairment test for other identifiable intangible assets on an annual basis or more often if events and circumstances indicate there may be impairment. There was no impairment of goodwill or identifiable intangibles during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Since the last annual impairment analysis during 2018, there have been no circumstances to indicate impairment. There can be no assurance that future impairment assessments or tests will not result in a charge to earnings.

Deposits

Total deposits increased $117.2 million, or 3.0%, from December 31, 2018, primarily due to increases in commercial and consumer deposits.

Borrowings

Total borrowings decreased $116.6 million, or 27.1%, from December 31, 2018, primarily due to a decrease in short-term borrowings of $116.6 million. The increase in deposits reduced the need to borrow short-term funds.

The increase in shareholder's equity at March 31, 2019 of $13.5 million, or 2.2%, from December 31, 2018 was primarily related to an increase in retained earnings of $8.6 million. Retained earnings at March 31, 2019 was impacted by the three months of net income of $16.1 million partially offset by the related adjustments to the January 1, 2019 adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 of $1.5 million and cash dividends declared of $5.9 million. Accumulated other comprehensive loss decreased by $4.2 million mainly attributable to increases in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities of $4.0 million, net of tax.

Discussion of Segments

The Corporation has three operating segments: Banking, Wealth Management and Insurance. Detailed segment information appears in Note 13, "Segment Reporting" included in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Note 13 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Banking segment, as presented in Note 13 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, reports pre-tax income of $17.3 million and $13.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. See the section of this MD&A under the heading “Net Interest Income", “Interest Income”, “Interest Expense”, and “Provision for Loan and Lease Losses” for a discussion of the Banking Segment.

Wealth Management segment, as presented in Note 13 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, reports pre-tax income of $1.7 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in pre-tax income is primarily attributable to higher noninterest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018. Noninterest income remained flat at $5.7 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Wealth Management assets under management and supervision were $3.6 billion as of March 31, 2019 and $3.4 billion as of March 31, 2018. The increase in assets under management and supervision as of March 31, 2019, as compared to March 31, 2018, was primarily driven by new customer relationships and an increase in the equity markets as of each respective period-end.

Insurance segment, as presented in Note 13 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, reports pre-tax income of $2.0 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and noninterest income of $5.4 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Noninterest income has increased primarily due to increases in group life and health premiums and contingent commission income.

Capital Adequacy

The Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Corporation’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Capital adequacy guidelines, and additionally for the Bank the prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weighting and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of Total capital, Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 common capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined), or leverage ratio.

Table of Contents

In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted final rules revising the agencies’ capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action rules, designed to enhance such requirements and implement the revised standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, commonly referred to as Basel III. The new minimum capital requirements were effective on January 1, 2015. Under the new rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions (including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers), a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in an amount greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets. The capital conservation buffer requirements began to be phased in beginning January 1, 2016 and were fully applicable on January 1, 2019.

The Corporation adopted the new Basel III regulatory capital rules during the first quarter of 2015 under the transition rules, primarily relating to regulatory deductions and adjustments impacting common equity tier 1 capital and tier 1 capital, to be phased in over a four-year period beginning January 1, 2015. Under Basel III rules, the decision was made to opt-out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, the Corporation and the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer greater than 2.50% above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions. The Corporation's and Bank's intent is to maintain capital levels in excess of the capital conservation buffer which would require Tier 1 Capital to Risk Weighted Assets to exceed 8.50% and Total Capital to Risk Weighted Assets to exceed 10.50% beginning in the first quarter of 2019. The Corporation and the Bank were in compliance with these requirements at March 31, 2019.

Bank	476,639		10.12		188,487		4.00		235,609		5.00

At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, management believes that the Corporation and the Bank continued to meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. The Corporation, like other bank holding companies, currently is required to maintain Tier 1 capital and Total capital equal to at least 6.0% and 8.0%, respectively, of total risk-weighted assets (including various off-balance-sheet items). The Bank, like other depository institutions, is required to maintain similar capital levels under capital adequacy guidelines. Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, the Corporation and the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in an amount greater than 2.50% of total risk-weighted assets in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions. The Corporation and the Bank were in compliance with these requirements at March 31, 2019. For a depository institution to be considered “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Tier 1 and Total capital ratios must be at least 8.0% and 10.0% on a risk-adjusted basis, respectively. At March 31, 2019, the Bank is categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category. The January 1, 2019 adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 had and will continue to have a negative impact on all Corporation and Bank regulatory capital ratios. The Corporation will continue to analyze the impact of new accounting rules, such as CECL (ASU No. 2016-13) on its regulatory capital ratios.

In December 2018, the Federal Reserve announced that a banking organization that experiences a reduction in retained earnings due to the CECL adoption as the beginning of the fiscal year in which CECL is adopted may elect to phase in the regulatory capital impact of adopting CECL. Transitional amounts would be calculated for the following items: retained earnings, temporary

difference deferred tax assets and credit loss allowances eligible for inclusion in regulatory capital. When calculating regulatory capital ratios, 25% of the transitional amounts are phased in during the first year. An additional 25% of the transitional amounts are phased in over each of the next two years and at the beginning of the fourth year, the day-one effects of CECL are completely reflected in regulatory capital. The election must be made in the first reporting period that CECL is adopted. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Accounting Pronouncements Yet to Be Adopted" for additional information.

Asset/Liability Management

The primary functions of Asset/Liability Management are to assure adequate earnings, capital and liquidity while maintaining an appropriate balance between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management's objective with regard to interest rate risk is to understand the Corporation's sensitivity to changes in interest rates and develop and implement strategies to minimize volatility while maximizing net interest income.

The Corporation uses gap analysis and earnings at risk simulation modeling to quantify exposure to interest rate risk. The Corporation uses the gap analysis to identify and monitor long-term rate exposure and uses a simulation model to measure the short-term rate exposures. The Corporation runs various earnings simulation scenarios to quantify the impact of declining or rising interest rates on net interest income over a one-year and two-year horizon. The simulation uses expected cash flows and repricing characteristics for all financial instruments at a point in time and incorporates company developed, market-based assumptions regarding growth, pricing, and optionality such as prepayment speeds. As interest rates increase, fixed-rate assets that banks hold will tend to decrease in value; conversely, as interest rates decline, fixed-rate assets that banks hold will tend to increase in value.

Liquidity

The Corporation, in its role as a financial intermediary, is exposed to certain liquidity risks. Liquidity refers to the Corporation’s ability to ensure that sufficient cash flow and liquid assets are available to satisfy demand for loans, deposit withdrawals, repayment of borrowings and certificates of deposit at maturity, operating expense, and capital expenditures. The Corporation manages liquidity risk by measuring and monitoring liquidity sources and estimated funding needs on a daily basis. The Corporation has a contingency funding plan in place to address liquidity needs in the event of an institution-specific or a systemic financial crisis.

Sources of Funds

Core deposits continue to be the largest significant funding source for the Corporation. These deposits are primarily generated from a base of individuals, businesses, municipalities and non-profit customers located in our primary service areas. The Corporation faces increased competition for these deposits from a large array of financial market participants, including banks, credit unions, savings institutions, mutual funds, security dealers and others.

As part of its diversified funding strategy, the Corporation also utilizes a mix of short-term and long-term wholesale funding providers. Wholesale funding includes federal funds purchases from correspondent banks, secured borrowing lines from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and, at times, brokered deposits and other similar sources.

The Corporation, through the Bank, has a credit facility with the FHLB with a maximum borrowing capacity of approximately $1.7 billion. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying amount of overnight borrowings with the FHLB was $0 and $108.3 million, respectively. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying amount of long-term borrowings with the FHLB was $125.0 million. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank had outstanding short-term letters of credit with the FHLB totaling $336.9 million and $347.5 million, respectively, which were utilized to collateralize public funds deposits. The maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB changes as a function of qualifying collateral assets as well as the FHLB’s internal credit rating of the Bank.

The Corporation, through the Bank, maintains uncommitted federal fund lines with several correspondent banks that totaled $367.0 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Corporation had $55.0 million and $60.0 million, respectively, of outstanding federal funds purchased with these correspondent banks. Future availability under these lines is subject to the prerogatives of the granting banks and may be withdrawn at will.

The Corporation has a $10.0 million committed line of credit with a correspondent bank. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Corporation had no outstanding borrowings under this line.

Cash Requirements

The Corporation has cash requirements for various financial obligations, including contractual obligations and commitments that require cash payments. The most significant contractual obligation, in both the under and over one year time period, is for the Bank to repay certificates of deposit and short-term and long-term borrowings. The Bank anticipates meeting these obligations by continuing to provide convenient depository and cash management services through its financial center network, thereby replacing these contractual obligations with similar fund sources at rates that are competitive in our market. The Bank will also use borrowings and brokered deposits to meet its obligations.

Commitments to extend credit are the Bank’s most significant commitment in both the under and over one year time periods. These commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements in that these commitments often expire without being drawn upon.

Recent Regulatory and Legislative Developments

SEC FAST Act Modernization and Simplification of Regulation S-K

On April 2, 2019, the SEC issued Release No. 33-10618; 34-85381, "FAST Act Modernization and Simplification of Regulation S-K." The amendments under this rule modernize and simplify certain disclosure requirements in a manner that reduces the costs and burdens on registrants while continuing to provide material information to investors. The amendments are also intended to improve the readability and navigability of disclosure documents and discourage repetition and disclosure of immaterial information. The amendments are effective on May 2, 2019, except for specific amendments that are effective as cited in the rule. The Corporation provided the additional disclosures on the Form 10-Q cover page for the quarter ending March 31, 2019. The Corporation continues to analyze the amended disclosure requirements under this rule, but does not believe that such changes will materially impact the Corporation’s disclosures.


Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

No material changes in the Corporation’s market risk occurred during the current period. A detailed discussion of market risk is provided in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management is responsible for the disclosure controls and procedures of the Corporation. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be so disclosed by an issuer is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2019.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)) during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
