UNIVEST FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 condensed 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-period presentation. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2022 or for any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on February 25, 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed 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 the fair value measurement of investment securities available-for-sale and the calculation of the allowance for credit losses.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2022

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, "Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321): Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815." This ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interactions between ASC 321, ASC 323 and ASC 815 and addresses accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. This ASU became effective on January 1, 2022 for the Corporation. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, "Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)." This guidance simplifies the accounting for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock by removing the requirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendments in the ASU also simplify the guidance in ASC 815-40 by removing certain criteria that must be satisfied in order to classify a contract as equity, which is expected to decrease the number of freestanding instruments and embedded derivatives accounted for as assets or liabilities. Finally, the amendments revise the guidance on calculating earnings per share, requiring use of the if-converted method for all convertible instruments and require entities to presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted EPS when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares. This ASU became effective on January 1, 2022 for the Corporation. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-01, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method." ASU 2022-01 addresses and clarifies the guidance in ASC 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios of financial assets. This ASU amends the guidance in ASU 2017-12 that established the "last-of-layer" method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible. ASU 2022-01 renames that method the "portfolio layer" method and addresses feedback from stakeholders regarding its application. This ASU allows entities to designate multiple hedging relationships with a single closed portfolio, including both prepayable and non-prepayable financial assets, and therefore a larger portion of the interest rate risk associated with such a portfolio is eligible to be hedged.
7


This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 or January 1, 2023 for the Corporation, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption, however, is permitted if an entity has adopted the amendments in ASU 2017-12. The Corporation has elected to early adopt this ASU, and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Yet to Be Adopted

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures." The amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted CECL and enhance the disclosure requirements for modifications of receivables made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases in the existing vintage disclosures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 or January 1, 2023 for the Corporation, including interim periods within those fiscal years for entities that have adopted CECL. Early adoption is permitted if an entity has adopted CECL. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the amendments but does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

Note 2. Earnings per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. For additional information on the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share, see Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Earnings per Share" of the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

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 $439.9 million and $281.7 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, were pledged to secure public funds deposits and other contractual obligations. There were no pledged securities to secure credit derivatives and interest rate swaps at March 31, 2022. Securities of $23.0 million were pledged to secure credit derivatives and interest rate swaps at December 31, 2021. See Note 11, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" for additional information.

At March 31, 2022, the fair value of held-to-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded was $133.8 million, including unrealized losses of $8.7 million. These holdings were comprised of fifty-nine federal agency mortgage-backed securities, which are U.S. government entities and agencies and are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. The Corporation did not recognize any credit losses on held-to-maturity debt securities for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Accrued interest receivable on held-to-maturity debt securities totaled $351 thousand at March 31, 2022 and is included within Accrued interest receivable and other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. This amount is excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses.

At March 31, 2022, the fair value of available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded was $259.9 million, including unrealized losses of $19.2 million. These holdings were comprised of (1) eighty-seven federal agency mortgage-backed securities, which are U.S. government entities and agencies and are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses, (2) three investment grade corporate bonds, (3) two collateralized mortgage obligation bonds and (4) one state and political subdivisions bond. 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. The Corporation concluded that the decline in fair value of these securities was not indicative of a credit loss. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities totaled $821 thousand at March 31, 2022 and is included within Accrued interest receivable and other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. This amount is excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses.

At March 31, 2022, the fair value of available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit losses has been recorded was $74.1 million, including unrealized losses of $3.7 million, and allowance for credit losses of $1.3 million. These holdings were comprised of thirty-three investment grade corporate bonds which fluctuate in value based on changes in market conditions. For these securities, fluctuations were primarily due to changes in the interest rate environment. The Corporation does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is not likely that it will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery. The underlying issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments on the securities.

The Corporation recognized a $1 thousand and a $115 thousand net gain on equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in other noninterest income. There were no sales of equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Corporation categorizes risk based on relevant information about the ability of the borrower to service their debt. Loans with a relationship balance of less than $1 million are reviewed when necessary based on their performance, primarily when such loans are delinquent. Loans with relationships greater than $1 million are reviewed at least annually. Loan relationships with a higher risk profile or classified as special mention or substandard are reviewed at least quarterly. The Corporation reviews credit quality indicators on at least an annual basis and last completed this review in conjunction with the period ended December 31, 2021. The following is a description of the internal risk ratings and the likelihood of loss related to the credit quality of Commercial, financial and agricultural loans, Paycheck Protection Program loans, Real estate-commercial loans, Real estate-construction loans and Real estate-residential secured for a business purpose loans.

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

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Leases and Recorded Investment in Loans and Leases

The allowance for credit losses (ACL) on loans decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to favorable changes in economic-related assumptions, which were impacted by the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by loan growth. There were no changes to the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the reversion period, or any significant methodology changes during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The following presents, by portfolio segment, a summary of the activity in the allowance for credit losses, loans and leases, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

Note 11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Interest Rate Swaps

The Corporation periodically uses 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. The Corporation’s credit exposure on interest rate swaps includes fair value and any collateral that is held by a third party.

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 that were originated in 2013 with balances totaling $29.1 million at time of the hedge. A brokered money market demand account with a balance exceeding the 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, 2022, approximately $40 thousand in net deferred losses, 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, 2022. At March 31, 2022, the notional amount of the interest rate swap was $14.4 million and the fair value was a liability of $57 thousand.

The Corporation has an interest rate swap with a current notional amount of $11 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."

29


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 swap transactions for customers without issuing the swap.

At March 31, 2022, the Corporation had 126 variable-rate to fixed-rate interest rate swap transactions between the third-party financial institution and customers with a current notional amount of $769.3 million and remaining maturities ranging from 1 month to 12 years. At March 31, 2022, the fair value of the Corporation's interest rate swap credit derivatives was a liability of $457 thousand. At March 31, 2022, the fair value of the swaps to the customers was a net liability of $2.1 million and all but one of these swaps were in paying positions to the third-party financial institution.

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.

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.
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 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.

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, 2022.

32


Loans Held for Sale

The fair value of our loans held for sale is based on estimates using Level 2 inputs. These inputs are based on pricing information obtained from wholesale mortgage banks and brokers and applied to loans with similar interest rates and maturities.

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.

One commercial loan associated with an interest rate swap is classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy at March 31, 2022 since lending credit risk is not an observable input for this loan.

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.

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 condensed 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 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: Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. 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 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.

Individually analyzed loans and leases held for investment: For individually analyzed 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, 2022, individually analyzed loans held for investment had a carrying amount of $30.7 million with a valuation allowance of $954 thousand. At December 31, 2021, individually analyzed loans held for investment had a carrying amount of $33.1 million with a valuation allowance of $11 thousand. The Corporation had no individually analyzed leases at March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

Servicing rights: The Corporation estimates the fair value of 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. Servicing rights are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy based upon management's assessment of the inputs. The Corporation reviews the servicing rights portfolio on a quarterly basis for impairment and the servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. At March 31, 2022, servicing rights had a net carrying amount of $8.1 million, which included a valuation allowance of $7 thousand. At December 31, 2021, servicing rights had a net carrying amount of $7.9 million, which included a valuation allowance of $13 thousand.

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, 2022, there were no required valuation adjustments of goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets.

Other real estate owned: Other real estate owned (OREO) represents properties that the Corporation has acquired through foreclosure by either accepting a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by taking possession of assets that were used as loan collateral. The Corporation reports OREO at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell, adjusted periodically based on a current appraisal or an executed agreement of sale. Capital improvement expenses associated with the construction or repair of the property are capitalized as part of the cost of the OREO asset. Write-downs and any gain or loss upon the sale of OREO is recorded in other noninterest income. OREO is reported in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, OREO had a carrying amount of $279 thousand. 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
38


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.

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.

Note 13. Segment Reporting

At March 31, 2022, the Corporation had 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.
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 as follows:
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 investment advisory, financial planning, trust and brokerage services. The Wealth Management segment serves a diverse client base of private families and individuals, municipal pension plans, retirement plans, trusts and guardianships.
The Insurance segment includes a full-service insurance brokerage agency offering commercial property and casualty insurance, 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.

The Corporation expressly disclaims any obligation to publicly release any updates or revisions to reflect any change in the Corporation’s expectations with regard to any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management, in order to prepare the Corporation’s financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Corporation’s financial statements. There are uncertainties inherent in making these estimates and assumptions. Certain critical accounting policies could materially affect the results of operations and financial position of the Corporation should changes in circumstances require a change in related estimates or assumptions. The Corporation has identified the fair value measurement of investment securities available-for-sale and the calculation of the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases as critical accounting policies. For more information on these critical accounting policies, please refer to the Corporation’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Executive Overview

The Corporation’s consolidated net income, earnings per share and return on average assets and average equity were as follows:

Return on average assets1.17 %2.07 %(90 BP)(43.5)
Return on average equity10.64 %18.90 %(826 BP)(43.7)

The Corporation reported net income of $20.3 million, or $0.68 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to net income of $32.6 million, or $1.11 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Corporation recorded a reversal of provision for credit losses of $3.5 million, of which $5.7 million (after-tax benefit of $4.5 million), or $0.15 diluted earnings per share, was attributable to favorable changes in economic-related assumptions within the Corporation's CECL model, partially offset by increases in reserves for loans, unfunded commitments and investment securities. The reversal of provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $11.3 million, of which $12.9 million (after-tax benefit of $10.2 million), or $0.35 diluted earnings per share, was attributable to favorable changes in economic-related assumptions within the Corporation’s CECL model partially offset by a reserve increase attributable to loan growth.

As of March 31, 2022, $10.3 million in PPP loan originations remained outstanding. During the first quarter of 2022, $591 thousand was recorded as net interest income related to these loans, of which $552 thousand was the result of recognition of associated net deferred loan fees upon forgiveness and pay downs of PPP loans totaling $22.0 million. As of March 31, 2022, the Corporation had $272 thousand of net deferred fees on the balance sheet related to PPP loans, which represented approximately 1.5% of the initial deferred fee amount.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on loans and leases and investment securities and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Net interest income is the principal source of the Corporation’s revenue. Table 1 presents the Corporation’s average balances, tax-equivalent interest income, interest expense, tax-equivalent yields earned on average assets, cost of average liabilities, and shareholders’ equity on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. 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.

Three months ended March 31, 2022 versus 2021

Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $47.2 million, an increase of $1.2 million, or 2.6%, compared to $46.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in tax-equivalent net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the comparable period in the prior year was due to loan and investment balance growth outpacing declines in yield on interest-bearing assets and a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, offset by a decrease in PPP loan income.

43


The net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, was 2.89% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to 3.12% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Excess liquidity reduced the net interest margin by approximately 33 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to eleven basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This excess liquidity was primarily driven by strong growth of deposit balances since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily due to the various pandemic-related stimulus initiatives. PPP loans had a favorable impact on net interest margin of three and four basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively. As PPP loans are forgiven, the associated deferred fees are recognized in earnings, which occurred with greater frequency in 2021 as compared to 2022. Excluding the impact of excess liquidity and PPP loans, the net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.19% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Provision for Credit Losses

The reversal of the provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $3.5 million, of which $5.7 million (after-tax benefit of $4.5 million) was attributable to favorable changes in economic-related assumptions within the Corporation's CECL model, partially offset by increases in reserves for loans, unfunded commitments and investment securities. The reversal of the provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $11.3 million, of which $12.9 million (after-tax benefit of $10.2 million) was attributable to favorable changes in economic-related assumptions within the Corporation's CECL model partially offset by a reserve increase attributable to loan growth.

Three months ended March 31, 2022 versus 2021

Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $20.5 million, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 12.0%, from the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The net gain on mortgage banking activities decreased $4.0 million, or 67.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in loan sales and a contraction of margins. Other income decreased $642 thousand, or 46.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease of $657 thousand in fees on risk participation agreements for interest rate swaps driven by a decrease in customer demand.

Investment advisory commission and fee income increased $455 thousand, or 9.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, primarily due to new customer relationships and appreciation of assets under management, as a majority of investment advisory fees are billed based on the prior quarter-end assets under management balance. Insurance commission and fee income increased $615 thousand, or 12.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, primarily due to incremental revenue attributable to the insurance agency the Corporation acquired in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Other service fee income increased $564 thousand, or 25.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year. Interchange fee income increased $176 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, due to increased customer activity. Mortgage servicing fees increased $262 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, driven by reduced amortization as a result of a decrease in prepayment speeds.

Three months ended March 31, 2022 versus 2021

Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $45.4 million, an increase of $5.9 million, or 14.9%, from the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Salaries, benefits and commissions increased $3.5 million, or 14.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year. These increases reflect our continued investment in revenue producing staff across all business lines, including the acquisition of the Paul I. Sheaffer insurance agency, and annual merit increases. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred $387 thousand of short-term incremental guaranties related to the hiring of new producers in our Mortgage Banking line of business. Finally, the three months ended March 31, 2022 was benefited by $582 thousand of incremental capitalized compensation related to the origination of PPP loans.

Data processing expenses increased $517 thousand, or 17.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, primarily due to continued investments in our end-to-end loan origination solution for loans below $1.0 million, customer relationship management software, internal infrastructure improvements, outsourced data processing solutions, and our digital transformation initiative.

Professional fees increased $390 thousand, or 22.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, primarily attributable to $658 thousand in consultant fees spent in support of our digital transformation initiative, as compared to our $276 thousand investment in support of our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion training initiatives during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Deposit insurance premiums increased $257 thousand, or 40.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, attributable to an increased assessment base primarily driven by excess liquidity.

Other expense increased $993 thousand, or 19.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from the comparable period in the prior year, driven by increases in recruiting costs of $282 thousand due to increased hiring activity and travel and entertainment expenses of $265 thousand, which have begun to normalize as the markets we operate in continue to remain open. Additionally, we incurred costs of $330 thousand as a result of a customer who was defrauded.

Tax Provision

The Corporation recognized a tax expense of $4.9 million and $7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, resulting in an effective rate of 19.3% for both periods. The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were favorably impacted by eight and four basis points, respectively, of discrete tax benefits resulting from equity compensation awards vesting in the respective quarters. Additionally, the effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 reflected the benefits of tax-exempt income from investments in municipal securities and loans and leases.

Cash and Interest-Earning Deposits

Cash and interest-earning deposits decreased $116.4 million, or 13.1%, from December 31, 2021, primarily due to decreased interest earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank of $120.4 million as the Corporation used excess liquidity to fund securities and loan growth.

Investment Securities

Total investment securities at March 31, 2022 increased $21.9 million, or 4.4%, from December 31, 2021. Purchases of $69.6 million, primarily residential mortgage-backed securities, were partially offset by maturities and pay-downs of $22.8 million, decreases in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities of $20.1 million, sales of $4.0 million, net amortization of purchased premiums and discounts of $491 thousand and a provision for credit losses of $346 thousand.

Loans and Leases

Gross loans and leases held for investment increased $90.8 million, or 1.7%, from December 31, 2021. Gross loans and leases held for investment, excluding PPP loans, at March 31, 2022 increased $112.2 million or 2.1% from December 31, 2021. The growth in gross loans and leases held for investment, excluding PPP loans, was primarily due to increases in commercial real estate and residential mortgage 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.

Nonaccrual loans and leases and accruing troubled debt restructured loans are loans or leases for which it is probable that not all principal and interest payments due will be collectible in accordance with the original contractual terms. Factors considered by management in determining accrual status include payment status, borrower cash flows, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due.

At March 31, 2022, nonaccrual loans and leases and accruing troubled debt restructured loans were $30.9 million and had a related allowance for credit losses on loans and leases of $954 thousand. At December 31, 2021, nonaccrual loans and leases and accruing troubled debt restructured loans were $33.3 million and had a related allowance for credit losses on loans and
49


leases of $11 thousand. Individual reserves have been established based on current facts and management's judgements about the ultimate outcome of these credits, including the most recent known data available on any related underlying collateral and the borrower's cash flows. The amount of individual reserve needed for these credits could change in future periods subject to changes in facts and judgements related to these credits.

Net loan and lease charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $76 thousand compared to $288 thousand for the same period in the prior year.

Other real estate owned was $279 thousand at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

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 $784 thousand and $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 5 to the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," for a summary of intangible assets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

51


The Corporation also has goodwill with a net carrying value of $175.5 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, which is deemed to be an indefinite intangible asset and is not amortized. The Corporation completes a goodwill impairment analysis 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, 2022 and 2021. There can be no assurance that future impairment assessments or tests will not result in a charge to earnings.

Deposits

Total deposits decreased $7.2 million, or 0.1%, from December 31, 2021, primarily due to decreases in consumer and public funds deposits offset by an increase in commercial deposits.

Borrowings

Total borrowings decreased $1.1 million, or 0.5%, from December 31, 2021, due to a decrease in short-term customer repurchase agreements.

Accrued Interest Payable and Other Liabilities

Other liabilities decreased $6.6 million, or 14.3%, from December 31, 2021, due to the payment in the first quarter of $5.9 million of annual incentive payments that were previously accrued.

Treasury stock decreased $2.6 million from December 31, 2021 primarily due to stock issued under the dividend reinvestment and employee stock purchase plans and stock-based incentive plan activity. Accumulated other comprehensive loss increased by $15.6 million, primarily attributable to decreases in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities of $15.8 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 Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Banking segment reported pre-tax income of $22.8 million and $40.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See the section of this MD&A under the headings "Results of Operations" and "Financial Condition" for a discussion of key items impacting the Banking Segment.

The Wealth Management segment reported pre-tax income of $2.4 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Noninterest income was $7.3 million and $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in pre-tax income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily due to increases in commission expense driven by increased production and salary expense as we continue to invest in revenue producing positions. The increase in noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to appreciation of assets under management and supervision, as a majority of investment advisory fees are billed based on the prior quarter-end assets under management and supervision balance. Assets under management and supervision were $4.6 billion as of March 31, 2022, $4.9 billion as of December 31, 2021, $4.2 billion as of March 31, 2021 and $4.1 billion as of December 31, 2020.

The Insurance segment reported pre-tax income of $1.7 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Noninterest income was $5.8 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in pre-tax income and noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to incremental revenue attributable to the insurance agency the Corporation acquired in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Capital Adequacy

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain minimum capital amounts and ratios as set forth in the following table. To comply with the regulatory definition of well capitalized, a depository institution must maintain minimum capital amounts and ratios as set forth in the following table.

Under current 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 2.50% of total risk-weighted assets. The Corporation's and Bank's intent is to maintain capital levels in excess of the capital conservation buffer, which requires Tier 1 Capital to Risk Weighted Assets to exceed 8.50% and Total Capital to Risk Weighted Assets to exceed 10.50%. The Corporation and the Bank were in compliance with these requirements at March 31, 2022.

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, management believes that the Corporation and the Bank continued to meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. At March 31, 2022, the Bank was categorized as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

In December 2018, the Federal Reserve announced that a banking organization that experiences a reduction in retained earnings due to the CECL adoption as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which CECL was adopted may elect to phase in the regulatory capital impact of adopting CECL. Transitional amounts are 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.
Additionally, in March 2020, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation announced the 2020 CECL interim final rule (IFR) designed to allow eligible firms to better focus on supporting lending to creditworthy households and businesses in light of recent strains on the U.S. economy as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19). The 2020 CECL IFR allows corporations that adopt CECL before December 31, 2020 to defer 100 percent of the day-one transitional amounts
54


described above through December 31, 2021 for regulatory capital purposes. Additionally, the 2020 CECL IFR allows electing firms to defer through December 31, 2021 the approximate portion of the post day-one allowance attributable to CECL relative to the incurred loss methodology. This is calculated by applying a 25% scaling factor to the CECL provision.
The Corporation adopted the transition guidance and the 2020 CECL IFR relief and applied these effects to regulatory capital.

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 short-term rate exposure. 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 tend to decrease in value; conversely, as interest rates decline, fixed-rate assets 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 flows and liquid assets are available to satisfy demand for loans, deposit withdrawals, repayment of borrowings, certificates of deposit at maturity, operating expenses 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 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.

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 long-term borrowings. The Bank anticipates meeting these obligations by utilizing on-balance sheet liquidity and 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.
