The regulators conduct regular examinations, and BancShares and FCB must furnish periodic reports to itstheir regulators containing detailed financial and other information.
Numerous statutes and regulations apply to and restrict the activities of FCB, including limitations on the ability to pay dividends, capital requirements, reserve requirements, deposit insurance requirements and restrictions on transactions with related persons and entities controlled by related persons. The impact of these statutes and regulations is discussed below and in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Dodd-Frank Act. The Dodd-Frank Act, enacted in 2010, significantly restructured the financial regulatory regime in the United States and has a broad impact onrestructures the financial services industry. Although aregulatory environment and imposes significant numberregulatory and compliance changes, increased capital, leverage and liquidity requirements, including through the expansion of the rules and regulations mandated byscope of oversight responsibility of certain federal agencies through the creation of new oversight bodies. For example, the Dodd-Frank Act have been promulgated, certain requirementsestablished the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) with broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws. The CFPB has broad rule-making authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws and regulations that apply to all banks and savings institutions and non-bank financial institutions, including the Dodd-Frank Act have yetregulations that relate to credit card, deposit, mortgage and other consumer financial products and services we offer. The CFPB also has powers to issue regulations and take enforcement actions to prevent and remedy acts and practices relating to consumer financial products and services that it deems to be implemented. Given these uncertaintiesunfair, deceptive or abusive. The agency also has authority to how the federal bank regulatory agencies will implement the Dodd-Frank Act'simpose new disclosure requirements the full extent of the impact of the Act on the operations of BancShares and FCB is unclear.

Other changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act may affect the profitability of business activities, require changes to certain business practices, impose more stringent regulatory requirements or otherwise adversely affect the businessinclude:
Capital Planning and financial condition of BancShares and its subsidiaries. These changes may also require BancShares to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements.Stress Testing.
The Dodd-Frank Act mandated that stress tests be developed and performed to ensure that financial institutions have sufficient capital to absorb losses and support operations during multiple economic and bank scenarios. Bank holding companies with total consolidated assets between $10 billion and $50 billion, including BancShares, undergo annual company-run stress tests. As directed by the Federal Reserve, summaries of BancShares’ annual results in the severely adverse stress tests were made available to the public effectivestarting in June 2015. The results of stress testing activities will be considered by our Risk Committee in combination with other risk management and monitoring practices as part of our risk management program.
Consumer Financial Protections Bureau Regulation and Supervision. The Volcker Rule. The Dodd-Frank Act establishedprohibits insured depository institutions and their holding companies from engaging in proprietary trading except in limited circumstances, and prohibits them from owning equity interests in excess of 3 percent of Tier 1 capital in private equity and hedge funds (Volcker Rule). Each regulated entity is required to establish an internal compliance program that is consistent with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), a new agency with centralized responsibility for consumer financial protection.extent to which it engages in activities covered by the Volcker Rule. Although the rules provide some tiering of compliance and reporting obligations based on size, the fundamental prohibitions of the Volcker Rule apply to banking entities of any size, including BancShares and FCB. The CFPB has the authority to examine FCB for compliance with a broad rangeadoption of federal consumer financial laws and regulations, including the laws and regulations that relate to credit card, deposit, mortgage and other consumer financial products and services we offer.
In addition, Dodd-Frank Act gives the CFPB broad authorityVolcker Rule did not have any material effect on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.
Ability-to-Repay and Qualified Mortgage Rule. Creditors are required to take corrective action againstcomply with mortgage reform provisions prohibiting the origination of any residential mortgages that do not meet rigorous Qualified Mortgage standards or Ability-to-Repay standards. All mortgage loans originated by FCB as it deems appropriate. The CFPB also has powers that it was assigned in Dodd-Frank Act to issue regulations and take enforcement actions to prevent and remedy acts and practices relating to consumer financial products and services that it deems to be unfair, deceptive or abusive. The agency also has authority to impose new disclosure requirements for any consumer financial product or service. These authorities are in addition to the authorities the CFPB assumed on July 21, 2011 under then-existing consumer financial laws governing the provision of consumer financial products and services. The CFPB has concentrated much of its initial rulemaking efforts on a variety of mortgage related topics required under Dodd-Frank Act, including ability-to-repay and qualified mortgage standards, mortgage servicing standards, loan originator compensation standards, high-cost mortgage requirements, appraisal and escrowmeet Ability-to-Repay standards and requirements for higher-priced mortgages.

BancShares
General. As a financial holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act (BHCA), BancShares is subject to supervision, regulation, and examination by the Federal Reserve. BancShares is also registered under the bank holding company laws of North Carolina and is subject to supervision, regulation, and examination by the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks (NCCB).NCCB.
Permitted Activities. A bank holding company is limited to managing or controlling banks, furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries, and engaging in other activities that the Federal Reserve determines by regulation or order to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In addition, bank holding companies that qualify and elect to be financial holding companies, such as BancShares, may engage in any activity, or acquire and retain the shares of a company engaged in any activity, that is either (i) financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity (as determined by the Federal Reserve in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury) or (ii) complementary to a financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally (as solely determined by the Federal Reserve), without prior approval of the Federal Reserve. Activities that are financial in nature include securities underwriting and dealing, serving as an insurance underwritingagent and makingunderwriter and engaging in merchant banking investments.banking.
Status Requirements. To maintain financial holding company status, a financial holding company and all of its depository institution subsidiaries must be “well capitalized”well-capitalized and “well managed.”well-managed. A depository institution subsidiary is considered to be “well capitalized”well-capitalized if it satisfies the requirements for this status under applicable Federal Reserve capital requirements. A depository institution subsidiary is considered “well managed” if it received a composite rating and management rating of at least “satisfactory” in its most recent examination. A financial holding company’s status will also depend upon it maintaining its status as “well capitalized” and “well managed” under applicable Federal Reserve regulations. If a financial holding company ceases to meet these capital and management requirements, the Federal Reserve may impose limitations or conditions on the conduct of its activities, and the company may not commence any of the broader financial activities permissible for financial holding companies or acquire a company engaged in such financial activities without prior approval of the Federal Reserve. If the company does not return to compliance within 180 days, the Federal Reserve may require divestiture of the holding company’s depository institutions.activities.
Capital Requirements. The Federal Reserve imposes certain capital requirements on bank holding companies under the BHCA, including a minimum leverage ratio and a minimum ratio of “qualifying” capital to risk-weighted assets. These requirements are described below under “The Subsidiary Bank - FCB - Current Capital Requirements (Basel III)”. As of December 31, 2015,2016, the risk-based Tier 1, common equity Tier 1, total capital, and leverage capital ratios of BancShares were 12.6512.42 percent, 12.5112.42 percent, 14.0313.85 percent and 8.969.05 percent, respectively, and each capital ratio listed above exceeded the applicable minimum requirements as well as the well-capitalized standards. Subject to its capital requirements and certain other restrictions, BancShares is able to borrow money to make capital contributions to FCB and such loans may be repaid from dividends paid by FCB to BancShares.
Source of Strength. Federal Reserve policy has historically requiredUnder the Dodd-Frank Act, bank holding companies are required to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to their subsidiary banks. The Dodd-Frank Act codified this policy as a statutory requirement. Under this requirement, BancShares is expected to commit resources to support FCB, including times when BancShares may not be in a financial position to provide such resources. Any capital loans made by a bank holding company to any of its subsidiary banks are subordinate in right of payment to depositors and to certain other indebtedness of such subsidiary banks. In the event of a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to priority of payment.
Safety and Soundness. The federal bank regulatory agencies have adopted guidelines prescribing safety and soundness standards. These guidelines establish general standards relating to internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and compensation, fees and benefits. In general, the guidelines require, among other things, appropriate systems and practices to identify and manage the risk and exposures specified in the guidelines. There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding companies and their subsidiary banks by law and regulatory policy that are designed to minimize potential loss to the depositors of such depository institutions and the FDIC insurance fund in the event of a depository institution default.
Limits on Dividends and Other Payments. BancShares is a legal entity, separate and distinct from its subsidiaries. Revenues of BancShares primarily result from dividends paid to it by FCB. There are various legal limitations applicable to the payment of dividends by FCB to BancShares and to the payment of dividends by BancShares to its shareholders. The payment of dividends by FCB or BancShares may be limited by certain factors, such as requirements to maintain capital above regulatory guidelines.
Bank regulatory agencies have the authority to prohibit FCB or BancShares from engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice in conducting their business. The payment of dividends, depending on the financial condition of FCB or BancShares, could be deemed to constitute such an unsafe or unsound practice.
Under the FDIA,Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDIA), insured depository institutions, such as FCB, are prohibited from making capital distributions, including the payment of dividends, if, after making such distributions, the institution would become “undercapitalized” (as such term is used in the statute). Additionally, under Basel III capital requirements, banking institutions with a ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall. Based on the FCB’s current financial condition, BancShares currently does not expect this provision willthese provisions to have any material impact on its ability to receive dividends from FCB. BancShares' non-bank subsidiaries pay dividends to BancShares periodically on a non-regulated basis.
Subsidiary Bank - FCB
General. FCB is a state-chartered bank, subject to supervision and examination by, and the regulations and reporting requirements of, the FDIC and the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks.NCCB.
The various laws and regulations administered by the bank regulatory agencies affect corporate practices, such as the payment of dividends, incurrence of debt, and acquisition of financial institutions and other companies; they also affect business practices, such as the payment of interest on deposits, the charging of interest on loans, types of business conducted, and location of offices.
Current Capital Requirements (Basel III). On June 7, 2012, the Federal Reserve issued a series of proposed rules that would revise and strengthen its risk-based and leverage capital requirements and its method for calculating risk-weighted assets. The rules were proposed to implement theBank regulatory agencies approved Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisionsguidelines aimed at strengthening existing capital requirements through a combination of the Dodd-Frank Act. On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve approved certain revisions to the proposals and finalizedhigher minimum capital requirements, new capital conservation buffers and more conservative definitions of capital and balance sheet exposure. BancShares and FCB implemented the requirements for banking organizations.
Effectiveof Basel III effective January 1, 2015, subject to a transition period for several aspects of the final rules required BancSharesrule. The table below describes the minimum and FCB to comply withwell-capitalized requirements for the following new minimum capital ratios: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5 percent of risk-weighted assets; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0 percent of risk-weighted assets; (iii) a total capital ratio of 8.0 percent of risk-weighted assets;transitional period that began in 2016 and (iv) a leverage ratio of 4.0 percent of total average assets. These are the initial capitalfully-phased-in requirements which will be phasedthat become effective in over a four-year period. When fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the rules will require BancShares and FCB to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5 percent, plus a 2.5 percent “capital conservation buffer” (which is added to the 4.5 percent common equity Tier 1 ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7.0 percent upon full implementation), (ii) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0 percent, plus the capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 6.0 percent Tier 1 capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5 percent upon full implementation), (iii) a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0 percent, plus the capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 8.0 percent total capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5 percent upon full implementation), and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0 percent, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total average assets.2019.

The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum, but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall.
With respect to FCB, the rules also revised the “prompt corrective action” regulations pursuant to Section 38 of the FDIA by (i) introducing a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio requirement at each level (other than critically undercapitalized), with the required ratio being 6.5 percent for well-capitalized status; (ii) increasing the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio requirement for each category, with the minimum ratio for well-capitalized status being 8.0 percent (as compared to the previous 6.0 percent); and (iii) eliminating the current provision that provides that a bank with a composite supervisory rating of 1 may have a 3.0 percent Tier 1 leverage ratio and still be well-capitalized. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements may result in certain actions by regulators that could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2015,2016, FCB exceeded the applicable minimum requirements as well as the well-capitalized standards.
Prompt Corrective Action. Federal banking regulators are authorized and, under certain circumstances, required to take certain actions against banks that fail to meet their capital requirements. The federal bank regulatory agencies have additional enforcement authority with respect to undercapitalized depository institutions. “Well capitalized” institutions may generally operate without supervisory restriction. With respect to “adequately capitalized” institutions, such banks cannot normally pay dividends or make any capital contributions that would leave it undercapitalized, they cannot pay a management fee to a controlling person if, after paying the fee, it would be undercapitalized, and they cannot accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit unless the bank has applied for and been granted a waiver by the FDIC.
Transactions with Affiliates. Pursuant to Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act, Regulation W and Regulation W,O, the authority of FCB to engage in transactions with related parties or “affiliates” or to make loans to insiders is limited. Loan transactions with an affiliate generally must be collateralized and certain transactions between FCB and its affiliates, including the sale of assets, the payment of money or the provision of services, must be on terms and conditions that are substantially the same, or at least as favorable to FCB, as those prevailing for comparable nonaffiliated transactions. In addition, FCB generally may not purchase securities issued or underwritten by affiliates.
FCB receives management fees from its subsidiaries and BancShares for expenses incurred for performing various functions on their behalf. These fees are charged to each company based upon the estimated cost for usage of services by that company. The fees are eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Community Reinvestment Act. FCB is subject to the requirements of the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (CRA). The CRA imposes on financial institutions an affirmative and ongoing obligation to meet the credit needs of the local communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. If FCB receives a rating from the Federal Reserve of less than “satisfactory” under the CRA, restrictions on operating activities would be imposed. In addition, in order for a financial holding company, like BancShares, to commence any new activity permitted by the BHCA, or to acquire any company engaged in any new activity permitted by the BHCA, each insured depository institution subsidiary of the financial holding company must have received a rating of at least “satisfactory” in its most recent examination under the CRA. FCB currently has a “satisfactory” CRA rating.
Privacy LegislationAnti-Money Laundering and OFAC Regulation. SeveralGovernmental policy on financial institutions in recent years has been aimed at combating money laundering and terrorist financing. The Bank Secrecy Act of 1970 (BSA) and subsequent laws includingand regulations require financial institutions to take steps to prevent the Dodd-Frank Act, and related regulations issued by the federal bank regulatory agencies, provide new protections against the transfer and use of customer information by financial institutions. A financial institution must provide to its customers information regarding its policies and procedures with respect tosystems from facilitating the handlingflow of customers’ personal information. Each institution must conduct an internal risk assessment of its ability to protect customer information. These privacy provisions generally prohibit a financial institution from providing a customer’s personal financial information to unaffiliated parties without prior notice and approval from the customer.
USA Patriot Act of 2001.illegal or illicit money or terrorist funds. In October 2001, the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Patriot Act) was enacted in response tosignificantly expanded the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania, and Northern Virginia. The Patriot Act is intended to strengthen U. S. law enforcement and the intelligence communities’ abilities to work cohesively to combat terrorism. The continuing impact on financial institutions of the Patriot Act and related regulations and policies is significant and wide ranging. The Patriot Act contains sweeping anti-money laundering (AML) and financial transparency laws and imposes various regulations by imposing new compliance and due diligence obligations, including standards for verifying customer identification at account opening, maintaining expanded records and rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions, regulators and law enforcement entities to identify persons who may be involved in terrorism or money laundering.
Volcker Rule. Additional rules were finalized in 2016 and must be implemented by May 2018 which create expanded obligations regarding customer due diligence and the identification of beneficial owners of business entities. An institution subject to the BSA, such as FCB, must provide AML training to employees, designate an AML compliance officer and annually audit the AML program to assess its effectiveness. The Dodd-Frank Act prohibits insured depository institutionsUnited States has imposed economic sanctions that affect transactions with designated foreign countries, nationals and others. Based on their holding companies from engagingadministration by the United States Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), these are typically known as the OFAC rules. Generally, the rules contain one or more of the following elements: (i) restrictions on trade with or investment in proprietary trading except in limited circumstances, and prohibits them from owning equity interests in excess of 3 percent of Tier 1 capital in private equity and hedge funds (Volcker Rule). On December 10, 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted final rules implementing the Volcker Rule. These final rules prohibit banking entities from (i) engaging in short-term proprietary trading for their own accounts,a sanctioned country, and (ii) having certain ownership interestsblocking of assets in and relationships with hedge fundswhich the government or private equity funds. The final rules are intended to provide greater clarity with respect to both the extent of those primary prohibitions andspecially designated nationals of the related exemptions and exclusions. The final rules also require each regulated entitysanctioned country have an interest, by prohibiting transfers of property subject to establish an
internal compliance program that is consistent with the extent to which it engagesUnited States jurisdiction. Blocked assets cannot be paid out, withdrawn, set off or transferred in activities covered by the Volcker Rule, which must include (for the largest entities) making regular reports about those activities to regulators. Although the final rules provide some tiering of compliance and reporting obligations based on size, the fundamental prohibitions of the Volcker Rule apply to banking entities of any size, including BancShares and FCB. The final rules were effective April 1, 2014, but the conformance period was extendedmanner without a license from its statutory end date of July 21, 2014 to July 21, 2015. The adoption of the Volcker Rule did not have any material effect on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.
Ability-to-Repay and Qualified Mortgage Rule. Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFPB issued a final rule on January 10, 2013 (effective January 10, 2014), amending Regulation Z as implemented by the Truth in Lending Act, requiring creditors to make a reasonable and good faith determination based on verified and documented information that a consumer applying for a mortgage loan has a reasonable ability to repay the loan according to its terms. Creditors are required to determine consumers’ ability to repay in one of two ways. The first alternative requires the creditor to consider the following eight underwriting factors when making the credit decision: (i) current or reasonably expected income or assets; (ii) current employment status; (iii) the monthly payment on the covered transaction; (iv) the monthly payment on any simultaneous loan; (v) the monthly payment for mortgage-related obligations; (vi) current debt obligations, alimony, and child support; (vii) the monthly debt-to-income ratio or residual income; and (viii) credit history. Alternatively, the creditor can originate “qualified mortgages,” which are entitled to a presumption that the creditor making the loan satisfied the ability-to-repay requirements. In general, a “qualified mortgage” is a mortgage loan without negative amortization, interest-only payments, balloon payments, or terms exceeding 30 years. In addition, to be a qualified mortgage the points and fees paid by a consumer cannot exceed 3 percent of the total loan amount. Qualified mortgages that are “higher-priced” (e.g. subprime loans) garner a rebuttable presumption of compliance with the ability-to-repay rules, while qualified mortgages that are not “higher-priced” (e.g. prime loans) are given a safe harbor of compliance. All mortgage loans originated by FCB meet Ability-to-Repay standards and a substantial majority also meet Qualified Mortgage standards. This mix provides the ability to serve the needsOFAC. Failure of a broad customer base.financial institution to maintain and implement adequate BSA, AML and OFAC programs, or to comply with all the relevant laws and regulations, could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the institution and result in material fines and sanctions.
Consumer Laws and Regulations. FCB is also subject to certain consumer laws and regulations that are designed to protect consumers in transactions with banks. These laws include the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, the Expedited Funds Availability Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Fair Housing Act and the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, among others. The laws and related regulations mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which financial institutions transact business with certain customers. A financial institution must provide to its customers information regarding its policies and procedures with respect to the handling of customers’ personal information. Each institution must conduct an internal risk assessment of its ability to protect customer information. These privacy provisions generally prohibit a financial institution from providing a customer’s personal financial information to unaffiliated parties without prior notice and approval from the customer. FCB must comply with the applicable provisions of these consumer protection laws and regulations as part of its ongoing customer relations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The risks and uncertainties that management believes are material are described below. The risks listed are not the only risks that BancShares faces. Additional risks and uncertainties that are not currently known or that management does not currently deem material could also have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and/or the results of our operations or our business.
If such risks and uncertainties were to become reality or the likelihoods of those risks were to increase, the market price of our common stock could significantly decline.
Our concentration of loans to borrowers within the medical and dental industry could impair our earnings if those industries experience economic difficulties
If regulatory changes (e.g., Affordable Care Act) in the market negatively impact the borrowers' businesses and their ability to repay their loans with us, this could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We operatecould be required to increase our allowance for loan losses through provisions for loan loss on our income statement that would reduce reported net income.
Our concentration of credit exposure in loans to dental practices could increase credit risk
Dentists and dental practices generally have fewer financial resources in terms of capital or borrowing capacity than larger entities, and generally have a highly regulated industryheightened vulnerability to negative economic conditions. If economic conditions in the market negatively impact the borrowers’ businesses and the lawstheir ability to repay their loans with us, this could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and regulations that governresults of operations.
Economic conditions in real estate markets and our operations, corporate governance, executive compensation and financial accounting, or reporting, including changes in them, or our failure to comply with them,reliance on junior liens may adversely affect us.
We are subject to extensive regulation and supervision that govern almost all aspects of our operations. In addition to a multitude of regulations designed to protect customers, depositors and consumers, we must comply with other regulations that protect the deposit insurance fund and the stability of the U.S. financial system, including laws and regulations which, among other matters, prescribe minimum capital requirements, impose limitations onimpact our business activities and investments, limit the dividend or distributions that we can pay, restrict the abilityour results of our bank subsidiaries to guarantee our debt and impose certain specific accounting requirements thatoperations
Real property collateral values may be more restrictiveimpacted by economic conditions in the real estate market and may result in greater or earlier charges to earnings or
reductionslosses on loans that, while adequately collateralized at the time of origination, become inadequate. Our reliance on junior liens is concentrated in our capital than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Compliance with laws and regulations can be difficult and costly, and changes in laws and regulations often impose additional compliance costs. We continue to face increased regulation and supervision of our industry as a resultnon-commercial revolving mortgage loan portfolio. Approximately two-thirds of the last financial crisisrevolving mortgage portfolio is secured by junior lien positions and lower real estate values for collateral underlying these loans may cause the outstanding balance of the senior lien to exceed the value of the collateral, resulting in a junior lien loan that impacted the bankingis in effect unsecured. Inadequate collateral values, rising interest rates and financial markets. Such additional regulation and supervision may increase our costs and limit our ability to pursue business opportunities. Further, our failure to comply with these laws and regulations, even if the failure was inadvertentunfavorable economic conditions could result in greater delinquency, write-downs or reflects a differencecharge-offs in interpretation, could subject us to restrictions on our business activities, mergers and acquisitions, fines and other penalties, any offuture periods, which could adversely affecthave a material adverse impact on our results of operations and capital baseadequacy.
Our allowance for loan losses may prove to be insufficient to absorb losses in our loan portfolio
We maintain an allowance for loan losses that is designed to cover losses on loans that borrowers may not repay in their entirety. We believe that we maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the corresponding balance sheet date, and in compliance with applicable accounting and regulatory guidance. However, the price of our common stock. Any new laws, rulesallowance may not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses, and regulationsfuture provisions for loan losses could make compliance more difficult or expensive, or otherwisematerially and adversely affect our businessoperating results.Accounting measurements related to impairment and financial condition.
The Dodd-Frank Act heightened the regulation of the financial services industry. One key component of the Dodd-Frank Act was the establishment of the CFPB. The CFPB, in consultation with the Federal banking agencies, has been given primary federal jurisdiction for consumer protections in the financial services markets. Within certain limitations, the CFPB is charged with creating, revising or restating the consumer protection regulations applicable to commercial banks. Weallowance require significant estimates that are subject to examinationuncertainty and supervision by the CFPB with respectchanges relating to compliance with consumer protection lawsnew information and regulations.
Certain provisionschanging circumstances. The significant uncertainties surrounding our borrowers' abilities to conduct their businesses successfully through changing economic environments, competitive challenges, and other factors complicate our estimates of the Dodd-Frank Act still require rulemaking and interpretation by regulatory authorities. In several cases, authorities have extended implementation periods and delayed effective dates. Accordingly, in some respectsrisk and/or amount of loss on any loan. Due to the ultimate impactdegree of the Dodd-Frank Act and its effects on the U.S. financial system and us will not be known for some period of time. Nevertheless, the Dodd-Frank Act, and current and future rules implementing its provisionsuncertainty and the interpretationsusceptibility to change, the actual losses may vary from current estimates. We expect fluctuations in the allowance due to the uncertain economic conditions.
As an integral part of those rules, could result in a loss of revenue,their examination process, our banking regulators periodically review the allowance and may require us to change certainincrease it for loan losses by recognizing additional provisions for loan losses charged to expense or to decrease the allowance by recognizing loan charge-offs, net of our business practices, limit our ability to pursue certain business opportunities, increase our capital and liquidity requirements, imposerecoveries. Any such required additional assessments and costsloan loss provisions or charge-offs could have a material adverse effect on us, and otherwise adversely affect our business operations and have other negative consequences.
We are subject to capital adequacy and liquidity guidelines and, if we fail to meet these guidelines, our financial condition would be adversely affected.and results of operations.
Under regulatory capital adequacy guidelines and other regulatory requirements, BancShares together with FCB, must meet certain capital and liquidity guidelines, subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
In July 2013,has been monitoring the Federal Reserve issued final capital rules that replaced existing capital adequacy rules and implemented Basel III and certain requirements imposed by the Dodd-Frank Act. When fully phased-in, these rules will result in higher and more stringent capital requirements for us and FCB. Basel III increased our capital requirements and changed the risk-weightingOctober 2016 impact of many of our assets.
Under Basel III, Tier 1 capital consists of Common Equity Tier (CET) 1 Capital and additional Tier 1 capital, with Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital constituting total risk-based capital. Basel III set minimum capital requirements of a CET 1 ratio of 4.5 percent; a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0 percent, and a total capital ratio of 8.0 percent. In addition, a Tier 1 leverage ratio to average consolidated assets of 4.0 percent applies. Further, we are required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.5 percent of additional CET 1. If we do not maintain the capital conservation buffer once it is fully phased in, then our ability to pay dividends and discretionary bonuses, and to make share repurchases, will be restricted. We implemented Basel III effective January 1, 2015, and are required to comply with the minimum regulatory capital ratios; on that same date, the transition period for other requirements of the final rules and the capital conservation buffer also began. If the risk weightings of certain assets we hold should change and we are required to hold increased amounts of capital, the profitability of those assets and underlying businesses may change, which could result in changes in our business mix over the long-term.
Basel III will also gradually eliminate the contribution of certain trust preferred and other hybrid debt securities to Tier 1 capital. Under the phased-in approach, the affected securities will lose Tier 1 capital status on January 1, 2016; the securities will, however, qualify for Tier 2 capital treatment.
We encounter significant competition which may reduce our market share and profitability
We compete with other banks and specialized financial service providersHurricane Matthew in our market areas. Our primary competitors include local, regional and national banks; credit unions; commercial finance companies; various wealth management providers; independent and captive insurance agencies; mortgage companies; and non-bank providers of financial services. Some of our larger competitors, including banks that have a significant presence in our market areas, have the capacity to offer products and services we do not offer. Some of our competitors operate in less stringent regulatory environments, and certain competitors are not subject to federal and/or state income taxes. The fierce competitive pressures that we face adversely affect pricing for many of our products and services.
Our financial condition could be adversely affected by the soundness of other financial institutions
Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty and/or other relationships. We have exposure to numerous financial service providers, including banks, securities brokersassessed how this situation may impact our customers and dealers, and other financial service providers. Although we monitor the financial conditions of financial institutions withareas in which they operate. However, we have not identified any significant impact to the credit exposure, transactions with such institutions exposequality of the loans in these areas that would cause us to credit risk throughadjust the possibility of counterparty default.
Our ability to grow is contingent on capital adequacy
Based on existing capital levels, BancShares and FCB are well-capitalized under current leverage and risk-based capital standards. Our ability to grow is contingent on our ability to generate sufficient capital to remain well-capitalized under current and future capital adequacy guidelines.
Historically, our primary capital sources have been retained earnings and debt issued through both private and public markets, including trust preferred securities and subordinated debt. Effective January 1, 2015, provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act eliminated 75 percent of our trust preferred capital securities from tier 1 capital with the remaining 25 percent phased out on January 1, 2016.
Rating agencies regularly evaluate our creditworthiness and assign credit ratings to our debt and the debt of FCB. The ratings of the agencies are based on a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. In addition to factors specific to our financial strength and performance, the rating agencies also consider conditions generally affecting the financial services industry. There can be no assurance that we will maintain our current credit ratings. Rating reductions could adversely affect our access to funding sources and the cost of obtaining funding.allowance for loan losses.
If we fail to effectively manage credit risk and interest rate risk, our business and financial condition will suffer
We must effectively manage credit risk. There are risks inherent in making any loan, including risks of repayment, risks with respect to the period of time over which the loan may be repaid, risks relating to proper loan underwriting and guidelines, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions, risks inherent in dealing with individual borrowers and risks resulting from uncertainties as to the future value of collateral. There is no assurance that our credit risk monitoring and loan approval procedures are or will be adequate or will reduce the inherent risks associated with lending. Our credit administration personnel, policies and procedures may not adequately adapt to changes in economic or any other conditions affecting customers and the quality of our loan portfolio. Any failure to manage such credit risks may materially adversely affect our business and our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
Our results of operations and cash flows are highly dependent upon net interest income. Interest rates are sensitive to economic and market conditions that are beyond our control, including the actions of the Federal Reserve Board’s Federal Open Market Committee.Committee (FOMC). Changes in monetary policy could influence interest income and interest expense as well as the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities. If changes in interest rates on our interest-earning assets are not equal to the changes in interest rates on our interest-bearing liabilities, our net interest income and, therefore, our net income could be adversely impacted.
Although we maintain an interest rate risk monitoring system, the forecasts of future net interest income are estimates and may be inaccurate. Actual interest rate movements may differ from our forecasts, and unexpected actions by the Federal Open Market CommitteeFOMC may have a direct impact on market interest rates.
If our current level of balance sheet liquidity were to experience pressure, that could affect our ability to pay deposits and fund our operations
Our deposit base represents our primary source of core funding and balance sheet liquidity. We normally have the ability to stimulate core deposit growth through reasonable and effective pricing strategies. However, in circumstances where our ability to generate needed liquidity is impaired, we need access to noncore funding such as borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve, Federal Funds purchased lines and brokered deposits. While we maintain access to these noncore funding sources, for some of them we are dependent on the availability of collateral and the counterparty’s willingness and ability to lend.
The Dodd-Frank Act rescinded the long-standing prohibition on the payment of interest on commercial demand deposit accounts. Recent historically low interest rates, as well as relatively low levels of competition among banks for demand deposit accounts, have made it difficult to determine the impact on our deposit base, if any, of this repeal. As interest rates begin to rise, our interest expense will increase and our net interest margins may decrease, negatively impacting our performance and, potentially, our financial condition. To the extent banks and other financial service providers were to compete for commercial demand deposit accounts through higher interest rates, our deposit base could be reduced if we are unwilling to
pay those higher rates; if we should determine to compete with those higher interest rates, our cost of funds could increase and our net interest margins could be reduced.
Accounting for acquired assets may result in earnings volatility
Fair value discounts that are recorded at the time an asset is acquired are accreted into interest income based on United States GAAP. The rate at which those discounts are accreted is unpredictable, the result of various factors including prepayments and credit quality improvements. Post-acquisition deterioration results in the recognition of provision expense and allowance for loan and lease losses. Additionally, the income statement impact of adjustments to the indemnification asset recorded in certain FDIC-assisted transactions may occur over a shorter period of time than the adjustments to the covered assets.
Fair value discount accretion, post-acquisition impairment and adjustments to the indemnification asset may result in significant volatility in our earnings. Volatility in earnings could unfavorably influence investor interest in our common stock thereby depressing the market value of our stock and the market capitalization of our company.
Reimbursements under loss share agreements are subject to FDIC oversight and interpretation and contractual term limitations
Some of our FDIC-assisted transactions include loss share agreements that provide significant protection to FCB from the exposures to prospective losses on certain assets. Generally, losses on single family residential loans are covered for ten years. All other loans are generally covered for five years. During 2016, loss share protection will expire for non-single family residential loans acquired from United Western Bank, Colorado Capital Bank, and Atlantic Bank and Trust. In 2014 and 2015, loss share protection expired for all other non-single family residential loans. Protection for all covered single family residential loans extends beyond December 31, 2017.
The loss share agreements impose certain obligations on us, including obligations to manage covered assets in a manner consistent with prudent business practices and in accordance with the procedures and practices that we customarily use for assets that are not covered by loss share agreements. We are required to report detailed loan level information and file requests for reimbursement of covered losses and expenses on a quarterly basis. In the event of noncompliance, delay or disallowance of some or all of our rights under those agreements could occur, including the denial of reimbursement for losses and related collection costs. Certain loss share agreements contain contingencies that require that we pay the FDIC in the event aggregate losses are less than a pre-determined amount.
Loans and leases covered under loss share agreements represent 1.3 percent of total loans and leases as of December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, we expect to receive cash payments from the FDIC totaling $4.1 million over the remaining lives of the respective loss share agreements, exclusive of $126.5 million we will owe the FDIC for settlement of the contingent payments.
The loss share agreements are subject to differing interpretations by the FDIC and FCB; therefore, disagreements may arise regarding coverage of losses, expenses and contingencies. Additionally, losses that are currently projected to occur during the loss share term may not occur until after the expiration of the applicable agreement and those losses could have a material impact on the results of operations in future periods. The carrying value of the FDIC receivable includes only those losses that we project to occur during the loss share period and for which we believe we will receive reimbursement from the FDIC at the applicable reimbursement rate.
The value of our goodwill may decline in the future
As of December 31, 2015, we had $139.8 million of goodwill recorded as an asset on our balance sheet. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually, comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its net book value. We also test goodwill for impairment when certain events occur, such as a significant decline in our expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, or a sustained decline in the price of our common stock. These tests may result in a write-off of goodwill deemed to be impaired, which could have a significant impact on our financial results; any such write-off would not impact our regulatory capital ratios, however, given that regulatory capital ratios are calculated using tangible capital amounts.
Our allowance for loan losses may prove to be insufficient to absorb losses in our loan portfolio
We maintain an allowance for loan losses that is designed to cover losses on loans that borrowers may not repay in their entirety. We believe that we maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the corresponding balance sheet date, and in compliance with applicable accounting and regulatory guidance. However, the allowance may not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses, and future provisions for loan losses could materially and adversely affect our operating results.Accounting measurements related to impairment and the allowance
require significant estimates that are subject to uncertainty and changes relating to new information and changing circumstances. The significant uncertainties surrounding our borrowers' abilities to conduct their businesses successfully through changing economic environments, competitive challenges, and other factors complicate our estimates of the risk and/or amount of loss on any loan. Due to the degree of uncertainty and the susceptibility to change, the actual losses may vary from current estimates. We expect fluctuations in the allowance due to the uncertain economic conditions.
As an integral part of their examination process, our banking regulators periodically review the allowance and may require us to increase it for loan losses by recognizing additional provisions for loan losses charged to expense or to decrease the allowance by recognizing loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. Any such required additional loan loss provisions or charge-offs could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
BancShares has been monitoring the impact of the October 2015 flooding in South Carolina. We have assessed how this situation may impact our customers and the areas in which they operate. However, we have not identified any significant impact to the credit quality of the loans in these areas that would cause us to adjust the allowance for loan losses.
Economic conditions in real estate markets and our reliance on junior liens may adversely impact our business and our results of operations
Real property collateral values may be impacted by economic conditions in the real estate market and may result in losses on loans that, while adequately collateralized at the time of origination, become inadequate. Our reliance on junior liens is concentrated in our non-commercial revolving mortgage loan portfolio. Approximately two-thirds of the revolving mortgage portfolio is secured by junior lien positions and lower real estate values for collateral underlying these loans may cause the outstanding balance of the senior lien to exceed the value of the collateral, resulting in a junior lien loan that is in effect unsecured. Inadequate collateral values, rising interest rates and unfavorable economic conditions could result in greater delinquency, write-downs or charge-offs in future periods, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and capital adequacy.
Our concentration of loans to borrowers within the medical industry could impair our revenue if that industry experiences economic difficulties
If regulatory changes (e.g., Affordable Care Act) in the market negatively impact the borrowers' businesses and their ability to repay their loans with us, this could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We could be required to increase our allowance for loan losses through provisions for loan loss on our income statement that would reduce reported net income.
Our concentration of credit exposure in loans to dental practices could increase credit risk
Dentists and dental practices generally have fewer financial resources in terms of capital or borrowing capacity than larger entities, and generally have a heightened vulnerability to negative economic conditions. If economic conditions in the market negatively impact the borrowers’ businesses and their ability to repay their loans with us, this could have a material adverse effect on BancShares’ financial condition and results of operations.
Our financial performance depends upon our ability to attract and retain clients for our products and services, which ability may be adversely impacted by weakened consumer and/or business confidence, and by any inability on our part to predict and satisfy customers’ needs and demands
Our financial performance is subject to risks associated with the loss of client confidence and demand. A fragile or weakening economy, or ambiguity surrounding the economic future, may lessen the demand for our products and services. Our performance may also be negatively impacted if we should fail to attract and retain customers because we are not able to successfully anticipate, develop and market products and services that satisfy market demands. Such events could impact our performance through fewer loans, reduced fee income, and fewer deposits, each of which could result in reduced net income.
Our business is highly quantitative and requires widespread use of financial models for day-to-day operations; these models may produce inaccurate predictions that significantly vary from actual results
We rely on quantitative models to measure risks and to estimate certain financial values. Such models may be used in many processes including, but not limited to, the pricing of various products and services, classifications of loans, setting interest rates on loans and deposits, quantifying interest rate and other market risks, forecasting losses, measuring capital adequacy, and calculating economic and regulatory capital levels. Models may also be used to estimate the value of financial instruments and balance sheet items. Inaccurate or erroneous models present the risk that business decisions relying on the models will prove inefficient or ineffective. Additionally, information we provide to our investors and regulators may be negatively impacted by
inaccurately designed or implemented models. For further information on models, see the Risk Management section included in Item 7 of this Form 10-K.
We face significant operational risks in our businesses
Safely conducting and growing our business requires that we create and maintain an appropriate operational and organizational control infrastructure. Operational risk can arise in numerous ways, including employee fraud, customer fraud, and control lapses in bank operations and information technology. Our dependence on our employees, and internal and third party automated systems, to record and process transactions may further increase the risk that technical failures or system-tampering will result in losses that are difficult to detect. We may be subject to disruptions of our operating systems arising from events that are wholly or partially beyond our control. Failure to maintain appropriate operational infrastructure and oversight can lead to loss of service to customers, legal actions and noncompliance with various laws and regulations. We have implemented internal controls to safeguard and maintain our operational and organizational infrastructure and information.
Failure to maintain effective systems of internal controls over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation and financial condition and disclosures
We must have effective internal controls over financial reporting in order to provide reliable financial reports, to effectively prevent fraud, and to operate successfully as a public company. If we were unable to provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our reputation and operating results would be harmed. As part of our ongoing monitoring of our internal controls over financial reporting, we may discover material weaknesses or significant deficiencies requiring remediation. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We continually work to improve our internal controls; however, we cannot be certain that these measures will ensure appropriate and adequate controls over our future financial processes and reporting. Any failure to maintain effective controls or to timely implement any necessary improvement of our internal controls could, among other things, result in losses from fraud or error, harm our reputation, or cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition and the market value of our common stock.
Breaches of our and our vendor's information security systems could expose us to hacking and the loss of customer information, which could damage our business reputation and expose us to significant liability
We maintain and transmit large amounts of sensitive information electronically, including personal and financial information of our customers. In addition to our own systems, we also rely on external vendors to provide certain services and are, therefore, exposed to their information security risks. While we seek to mitigate internal and external information security risks, the volume of business conducted through electronic devices continues to grow, and our computer systems and network infrastructure, as well as the systems of external vendors and customers, present security risks including susceptibility to hacking and/or identity theft.
We are also subject to risks arising from a broad range of attacks by doing business on the internet, which arise from both domestic and international sources and seek to obtain customer information for fraudulent purposes or, in some cases, to disrupt business activities. Information security risks could result in reputational damage and lead to a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and financial results of operations.
We may not be able to utilize technology to efficiently and effectively develop, market, and deliver new products and services to our customers
The continuous, widespread adoption of new technologies, including internet services, smart phones and other mobile devices, requires us to evaluate our product and service offerings to ensure they remain competitive. Our success depends in part on our ability to adapt our products and services, as well as our distribution of them, to evolving industry standards and consumer preferences. The increasing pressure from our competitors, both bank and non-bank, to keep pace and adopt new technologies and products and services may require us to further incur substantial expense. We may be unsuccessful at developing or introducing new products or services, modifying our existing products and services, adapting to changing customer preferences, achieving market acceptance or regulatory approval, sufficiently developing or maintaining a loyal customer base or offering products and services at prices and service levels competitive with those offered by our non-bank and bank competitors. These risks may affect our ability to grow and could reduce both our revenue streams from certain products and services and our revenues generated by our net interest margins. Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Unfavorable economic conditions could adversely affect our business
Our business is subject to periodic fluctuations based on national, regional and local economic conditions. These fluctuations are not predictable, cannot be controlled, and may have a material adverse impact on our operations and financial condition. Our banking operations are locally oriented and community-based. Our retail and commercial banking activities are primarily concentrated within the same geographic footprint. Our markets include the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, and Western United States, with our deepest presence in North Carolina and South Carolina. Worsening economic conditions within our markets, particularly within North Carolina and South Carolina, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Accordingly, we expect to continue to be dependent upon local business conditions as well as conditions in the local residential and commercial real estate markets we serve. Unfavorable changes in unemployment, real estate values, interest rates and other factors could weaken the economies of the communities we serve. In recent years, economic growth and business activity across a wide range of industries has been slow and uneven and there can be no assurance that economic conditions will continue to improve, and these conditions could worsen. In addition, oil price volatility, the level of U.S. debt and global economic conditions have had a destabilizing effect on financial markets. Weakness in any of our market areas could have an adverse impact on our earnings, and consequently our financial condition and capital adequacy.
Our ability to grow is contingent on access to capital
Our primary capital sources have been retained earnings and debt issued through both private and public markets. Rating agencies regularly evaluate our creditworthiness and assign credit ratings to our debt and the debt of FCB. The ratings of the agencies are based on a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. In addition to factors specific to our financial strength and performance, the rating agencies also consider conditions generally affecting the financial services industry. There can be no assurance that we will maintain our current credit ratings. Rating reductions could adversely affect our access to funding sources and the cost of obtaining funding.
Based on existing capital levels, BancShares and FCB are well-capitalized under current leverage and risk-based capital standards. Our ability to grow is contingent on our ability to generate sufficient capital to remain well-capitalized under current and future capital adequacy guidelines.
If our current level of balance sheet liquidity were to experience pressure, that could affect our ability to pay deposits and fund our operations
Our deposit base represents our primary source of core funding and balance sheet liquidity. We normally have the ability to stimulate core deposit growth through reasonable and effective pricing strategies. However, in circumstances where our ability to generate needed liquidity is impaired, we need access to noncore funding such as borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and the Federal Reserve, Federal Funds purchased lines and brokered deposits. While we maintain access to these noncore funding sources, for some of them we are dependent on the availability of collateral and the counterparty’s willingness and ability to lend.
The Dodd-Frank Act rescinded the long-standing prohibition on the payment of interest on commercial demand deposit accounts. The current low interest rate environment, as well as relatively low levels of competition among banks for demand deposit accounts, has made it difficult to determine the impact on our deposit base, if any, of this repeal. As interest rates rise, our interest expense will increase and our net interest margins may decrease, negatively impacting our performance and, potentially, our financial condition. To the extent banks and other financial service providers were to compete for commercial demand deposit accounts through higher interest rates, our deposit base could be reduced if we are unwilling to pay those higher rates; if we should determine to compete with those higher interest rates, our cost of funds could increase and our net interest margins could be reduced.
Our financial condition could be adversely affected by the soundness of other financial institutions
Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty and/or other relationships. We have exposure to numerous financial service providers, including banks, securities brokers and dealers, and other financial service
providers. Although we monitor the financial conditions of financial institutions with which we have credit exposure, transactions with such institutions expose us to credit risk through the possibility of counterparty default.
Our business and financial performance could be impacted by natural disasters, acts of war or terrorist activities
Natural disasters (including but not limited to earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires, explosions), acts of war and terrorist activities could hurt our performance (i) directly through damage to our facilities or other impact to our ability to conduct business in the ordinary course, and (ii) indirectly through such damage or impacts to our customers, suppliers or other counterparties. In particular, a significant amount of our business is concentrated in North Carolina and South Carolina, including in coastal areas where our retail and commercial customers could be impacted by hurricanes. We could also suffer adverse results to the extent that disasters, wars or terrorist activities affect the broader markets or economy. Our ability to minimize the consequences of such events is in significant measure reliant on the quality of our disaster recovery planning and our ability, if any, to forecast the events.
We face significant operational risks in our businesses
Safely conducting and growing our business requires that we create and maintain an appropriate operational and organizational control infrastructure. Operational risk can arise in numerous ways, including employee fraud, customer fraud, and control lapses in bank operations and information technology. Our business could suffer ifdependence on our employees, and internal and third party automated systems, to record and process transactions may further increase the risk that technical failures or system-tampering will result in losses that are difficult to detect. We may be subject to disruptions of our operating systems arising from events that are wholly or partially beyond our control. Failure to maintain appropriate operational infrastructure and oversight can lead to loss of service to customers, legal actions and noncompliance with various laws and regulations. We have implemented internal controls that are designed to safeguard and maintain our operational and organizational infrastructure and information. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
We encounter significant competition which may reduce our market share and profitability
We compete with other banks and specialized financial service providers in our market areas. Our primary competitors include local, regional and national banks; credit unions; commercial finance companies; various wealth management providers; independent and captive insurance agencies; mortgage companies; and non-bank providers of financial services. Some of our larger competitors, including banks that have a significant presence in our market areas, have the capacity to offer products and services we faildo not offer. Some of our competitors operate in less stringent regulatory environments, and certain competitors are not subject to attractfederal and/or state income taxes. The fierce competitive pressures that we face adversely affect pricing for many of our products and retain skilled employeesservices.
We depend on key personnel for our success
Our success depends to a great extent on our ability to attract and retain key employees. Competitionpersonnel. We have an experienced management team that our board of directors believes is intense for employees whomcapable of managing and growing our business. Losses of or changes in our current executive officers or other key personnel and their responsibilities may disrupt our business and could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. There can be no assurance that we believe will be successful in developingretaining our current executive officers or other key personnel, or hiring additional key personnel to assist in executing our growth, expansion and attracting newacquisition strategies.
Breaches of our and our vendors' information security systems could expose us to hacking and the loss of customer information, which could damage our business reputation and expose us to significant liability
We maintain and transmit large amounts of sensitive information electronically, including personal and financial information of our customers. In addition to our own systems, we also rely on external vendors to provide certain services and are, therefore, exposed to their information security risks. While we seek to mitigate internal and external information security risks, the volume of business conducted through electronic devices continues to grow, and our computer systems and network infrastructure, as well as the systems of external vendors and customers, present security risks including susceptibility to hacking and/or managing critical support functions. identity theft.
We are also subject to risks arising from a broad range of attacks by doing business on the internet, which arise from both domestic and international sources and seek to obtain customer information for fraudulent purposes or, in some cases, to disrupt business activities. Information security risks could result in reputational damage and lead to a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and financial results of operations.
We may not be able to hireutilize technology to efficiently and effectively develop, market, and deliver new products and services to our customers
The continuous, widespread adoption of new technologies, including internet services, smart phones and other mobile devices, requires us to evaluate our product and service offerings to ensure they remain competitive. Our success depends in part on our ability to adapt our products and services, as well as our distribution of them, to evolving industry standards and consumer preferences. The increasing pressure from our competitors, both bank and non-bank, to keep pace and adopt new technologies and products and services may require us to further incur substantial expense. We may be unsuccessful at developing or introducing new products or services, modifying our existing products and services, adapting to changing customer preferences, achieving market acceptance or regulatory approval, sufficiently developing or maintaining a loyal customer base or offering products and services at prices and service levels competitive with those offered by our non-bank and bank competitors. These risks may affect our ability to grow and could reduce both our revenue streams from certain products and services and our revenues generated by our net interest margins. Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Our financial performance depends upon our ability to attract and retain clients for our products and services, which ability may be adversely impacted by weakened consumer and/or business confidence, and by any inability on our part to predict and satisfy customers’ needs and demands
Our financial performance is subject to risks associated with the best employeesloss of client confidence and demand. A fragile or weakening economy, or ambiguity surrounding the economic future, may lessen the demand for our products and services. Our performance may also be negatively impacted if successful,we should fail to attract and retain them after their employment.customers because we are not able to successfully anticipate, develop and market products and services that satisfy market demands. Such events could impact our performance through fewer loans, reduced fee income, and fewer deposits, each of which could result in reduced net income.
We rely on external vendors
Third party vendors provide key components of our business infrastructure, including certain data processing and information services. A number of our vendors are large national entities with dominant market presence in their respective fields, and their services could be difficult to quickly replace in the event of failure or other interruption in service. Failures of certain vendors to provide services could adversely affect our ability to deliver products and services to our customers. External vendors also present information security risks. We monitor vendor risks, including the financial stability of critical vendors. The failure of a critical external vendor could disrupt our business and cause us to incur significant expense.
Accounting for acquired assets may result in earnings volatility
Fair value discounts that are recorded at the time an asset is acquired are accreted into interest income based on U.S. GAAP. The rate at which those discounts are accreted is unpredictable, the result of various factors including prepayments and credit quality improvements. Post-acquisition deterioration results in the recognition of provision expense and allowance for loan and lease losses. Additionally, the income statement impact of adjustments to the indemnification asset recorded in certain FDIC-assisted transactions may occur over a shorter period of time than the adjustments to the covered assets.
Fair value discount accretion, post-acquisition impairment and adjustments to the indemnification asset may result in significant volatility in our earnings. Volatility in earnings could unfavorably influence investor interest in our common stock thereby depressing the market value of our stock and the market capitalization of our company.
Our business is highly quantitative and requires widespread use of financial models for day-to-day operations; these models may produce inaccurate predictions that significantly vary from actual results
We rely on quantitative models to measure risks and to estimate certain financial values. Such models may be used in many processes including, but not limited to, the pricing of various products and services, classifications of loans, setting interest rates on loans and deposits, quantifying interest rate and other market risks, forecasting losses, measuring capital adequacy, and calculating economic and regulatory capital levels. Models may also be used to estimate the value of financial instruments and balance sheet items. Inaccurate or erroneous models present the risk that business decisions relying on the models will prove inefficient or ineffective. Additionally, information we provide to our investors and regulators may be negatively impacted by inaccurately designed or implemented models. For further information on models, see the Risk Management section included in Item 7 of this Form 10-K.
Failure to maintain effective systems of internal controls over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition and disclosures
We must have effective internal controls over financial reporting in order to provide reliable financial reports, to effectively prevent fraud, and to operate successfully as a public company. If we were unable to provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud,
our reputation and operating results would be harmed. As part of our ongoing monitoring of our internal controls over financial reporting, we may discover material weaknesses or significant deficiencies requiring remediation. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We continually work to improve our internal controls; however, we cannot be certain that these measures will ensure appropriate and adequate controls over our future financial processes and reporting. Any failure to maintain effective controls or to timely implement any necessary improvement of our internal controls could, among other things, result in losses from fraud or error, harm our reputation, or cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition and the market value of our common stock.
The value of our goodwill may decline in the future
At December 31, 2016, we had $150.6 million of goodwill recorded as an asset on our balance sheet. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually, comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its net book value. We also test goodwill for impairment when certain events occur, such as a significant decline in our expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, or a sustained decline in the price of our common stock. These tests may result in a write-off of goodwill deemed to be impaired, which could have a significant impact on our financial results; however, any such write-off would not impact our regulatory capital ratios, given that regulatory capital ratios are calculated using tangible capital amounts.
We may be adversely affected by risks associated with completed, pending or any potential future acquisitions
We plan to continue to grow our business organically. However, we have pursued and expect to pursue additional acquisition opportunities that we believe support our business strategies and may enhance our profitability. We must generally satisfy a number of material conditions prior to consummating any acquisition, including, in many cases, federal and state regulatory approval. We may fail to complete strategic and competitively significant business opportunities as a result of our inability to obtain any required regulatory approvals in a timely manner or at all.
Acquisitions of financial institutions or assets of financial institutions involve operational risks and uncertainties, and acquired companies or assets may have unknown or contingent liabilities, exposure to unexpected asset quality problems that require write downs or write-offs, difficulty retaining key employees and customers and other issues that could negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We may not be able to realize projected cost savings, synergies or other benefits associated with any such acquisition. Failure to efficiently integrate any acquired entities or assets into our existing operations could increase our operating costs significantly and have material adverse effects on our financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in identifying or consummating any potential acquisitions.
The performance of equity securities and corporate bonds in the investment portfolio could be adversely impacted by the soundness and fluctuations in the market values of other financial institutions
Our investment securities portfolio contains certain equity securities and corporate bonds of other financial institutions. As a result, a portion of our investment securities portfolio is subject to fluctuation due to changes in the financial stability and market value of other financial institutions, as well as interest rate sensitivity to economic and market conditions. Such fluctuations could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
We operate in a highly regulated industry and the laws and regulations that govern our operations, taxes, corporate governance, executive compensation and financial accounting, or reporting, including changes in them, or our failure to comply with them, may adversely affect us
We are subject to extensive regulation and supervision that govern almost all aspects of our operations. In addition to a multitude of regulations designed to protect customers, depositors and consumers, we must comply with other regulations that protect the deposit insurance fund and the stability of the United States' (U.S.) financial system, including laws and regulations which, among other matters, prescribe minimum capital requirements, impose limitations on our business activities and investments, limit the dividend or distributions that we can pay, restrict the ability of our bank subsidiaries to guarantee our debt, and impose certain specific accounting requirements that may be more restrictive and may result in greater or earlier charges to earnings or reductions in our capital than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Compliance with laws and regulations can be difficult and costly, and changes in laws and regulations often impose additional compliance costs.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations issued by the SEC and NASDAQ, as well as numerous other recently enacted statutes and regulations, including the Dodd-Frank Act and regulations promulgated thereunder, have
increased the scope, complexity and cost of corporate governance and reporting and disclosure practices, including the costs of completing our external audit and maintaining our internal controls. Such additional regulation and supervision may limit our ability to pursue business opportunities.
The failure to comply with these various rules and regulations could subject us to restrictions on our business activities, mergers and acquisitions, fines and other penalties, any of which could adversely affect our results of operations, capital base and the price of our common stock.
We are subject to capital adequacy and liquidity guidelines and, if we fail to meet these guidelines, our financial condition would be adversely affected
Under regulatory capital adequacy guidelines and other regulatory requirements, BancShares, together with FCB, must meet certain capital and liquidity guidelines, subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
The Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) issued capital rules that established a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking institutions and established a more conservative definition of capital. These requirements, known as Basel III, became effective January 1, 2015, and as a result, we became subject to enhanced minimum capital and leverage ratios. These requirements could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends or could require us to limit certain business activities or to raise capital, which may adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition. In addition, the costs associated with complying with more stringent capital requirements, such as the requirement to formulate and submit capital plans based on pre-defined stress scenarios on an annual basis, could have an adverse affect on us. See the Supervision and Regulation section included in Item 7 of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding the capital requirements under the Dodd-Frank Act and Basel III.
We may be adversely affected by changes in U.S. tax and other laws and regulations
The U.S. Congress and the Administration have indicated an interest in reforming the U.S. corporate income tax code. Possible approaches include lowering the 35 percent corporate tax rate, limiting or eliminating various other deductions, tax credits and/or other tax preferences. It is not possible at this time to quantify either the one-time impacts from the re-measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities that might result upon tax reform enactment or the ongoing impacts reform proposals might have on income tax expense.
Accounting standards may change and increase our operating costs and/or otherwise adversely affect our results
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) periodically modify the standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements. The nature of these changes is not predictable and could impact how we record transactions in our financial statements, which could lead to material changes in assets, liabilities, shareholders’ equity, revenues, expenses and net income. In some cases, we could be required to apply new or revised standards retroactively, resulting in changes to previously-reported financial results or a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. Application of new accounting rules or standards could require us to implement costly technology changes.
We are subject to litigation risks, and our expenses related to litigation may adversely affect our results
We are subject to litigation risks in the ordinary course of our business. Claims and legal actions, including supervisory actions by our regulators, that may be initiated against us from time to time, could involve large monetary sums and significant defense costs. During the last credit crisis, we saw both the number of cases and our expenses related to those cases increase. The outcomes of such cases are always uncertain until finally adjudicated or resolved.
We establish reserves for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and our liability can be reasonably estimated. We may still incur legal costs for a matter even if we have not established a reserve. In addition, the actual amount paid in resolution of a legal claim may be substantially higher than any amounts reserved for the matter. The ultimate resolution of a legal proceeding, depending on the remedy sought and any relief granted, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Substantial legal claims or significant regulatory action against us could have material adverse financial effects or cause significant reputational harm to us, which in turn could seriously harm our business prospects. We may be exposed to substantial uninsured legal liabilities and/or regulatory actions, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. For additional information, see Note U, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K.
Certain provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws may prevent a change in management or a takeover attempt that you might consider to be in your best interests
Certain provisions contained in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws could delay or prevent the removal of directors and other management. The provisions could also delay or make more difficult a tender offer, merger, or proxy contest that you might consider to be in your best interests. For example, the Certificate of Incorporation and/or Bylaws:
allow our Board of Directors to issue and set the terms of preferred shares without further shareholder approval;
limit who can call a special meeting of shareholders; and
establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the Board of Directors and proposals of other business to be considered at annual meetings of shareholders.
These provisions, as well as provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act and other relevant statutes and regulations which require advance notice and/or applications for regulatory approval of changes in control of banks and bank holding companies, and additionally the fact that the Holding family holds or controls shares representing a majority of the voting power of our common stock, may discourage potential takeover attempts, discourage bids for our common stock at a premium over market price, and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
The market price of our stock may be volatile
Although publicly traded, our common stock has less liquidity and public float than other large publicly traded financial services companies. Low liquidity increases the price volatility of our stock and could make it difficult for our shareholders to sell or buy our common stock at specific prices.
Excluding the impact of liquidity, the market price of our common stock can fluctuate widely in response to other factors including expectations of financial and operating results, actual operating results, actions of institutional shareholders, speculation in the press or the investment community, market perception of acquisitions, rating agency upgrades or downgrades, stock prices of other companies that are similar to us, general market expectations related to the financial services industry, and the potential impact of government actions affecting the financial services industry.
We rely on dividends from FCB
As a financial holding company, we are a separate legal entity from FCB. We derive most of our revenue and cash flow from dividends paid by FCB. These dividends are the primary source on which we pay dividends on our common stock and interest and principal on our debt obligations. State and federal laws impose restrictions on the dividends that FCB may pay to us. In the event FCB is unable to pay dividends to us for an extended period of time, we may not be able to service our debt obligations or pay dividends on our common stock.
We are subject to litigation risks, and our expenses related to litigation may adversely affect our results
We are subject to litigation risks in the ordinary course of our business. Claims and legal actions, including supervisory actions by our regulators, that may be initiated against us from time to time could involve large monetary sums and significant defense costs. During the last credit crisis, we saw both the number of cases and our expenses related to those cases increase. The outcomes of such cases are always uncertain until finally adjudicated or resolved.
We establish reserves for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and our liability can be reasonably estimated. We may still incur legal costs for a matter even if we have not established a reserve. In addition, the actual amount paid in resolution of a legal claim may be substantially higher than any amounts reserved for the matter. The ultimate resolution of a legal proceeding, depending on the remedy sought and any relief granted, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Substantial legal claims or significant regulatory action against us could have material adverse financial effects or cause significant reputational harm to us, which in turn could seriously harm our business prospects. We may be exposed to substantial uninsured legal liabilities and/or regulatory actions, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. For additional information, see Note U, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K.
Item 2. Properties
As of December 31, 2015,2016, BancShares operated branch offices at 559550 locations in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Maryland, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and West Virginia and the District of Columbia.Wisconsin.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
BancShares and various subsidiaries have been named as defendants in various legal actions arising from our normal business activities in which damages in various amounts are claimed. Although the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to those other matters cannot be determined, in the opinion of management, no legal action currently exists that is expected to have a material effect on BancShares’ consolidated financial statements. Additional information related to legal proceedings is set forth in Note U "Commitments and Contingencies" ofin BancShares’ Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Part II
Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
BancShares has two classes of common stock—Class A common and Class B common. Shares of Class A common have one vote per share, while shares of Class B common have 16 votes per share.

A cash dividend of 30 cents per share was declared by the Board of Directors on January 26, 2016,24, 2017, payable on April 4, 2016,2017, to holders of record as of March 21, 2016.20, 2017. Payment of dividends is made at the discretion of the Board of Directors and is contingent upon satisfactory earnings as well as projected future capital needs. BancShares’ principal source of liquidity for payment of shareholder dividends is the dividend it receives from FCB. FCB is subject to various requirements under federal and state banking laws that restrict the payment of dividends and its ability to lend to BancShares. Subject to the foregoing, it is currently management’s expectation that comparable cash dividends will continue to be paid in the future.
During the third quarter of 2014,2016, our board approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock from 11,000,000 to 16,000,000. In connection with the Bancorporation merger, BancShares repurchased and retired 167,600 and 45,900 shares of Class A and Class B common stock on October 1, 2014, respectively, that were previously held by Bancorporation.
On October 27, 2015, our boardBoard approved a stock repurchase plan that provides for the purchase of up to 100,000200,000 shares of Class A common stock. The shares may be purchased from time to time from November 1, 20152016 through October 31, 2017. That authority replaced a similar plan in effect during the twelve months preceding November 1, 2016. The board'sBoard's action approving share purchases does not obligate BancShares to acquire any particular amount of shares and purchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Any shares of stock that are purchased will be canceled. As of December 31, 2015,2016, no purchases had occurred pursuant to thateither authorization.
There were no shares of Class A or Class B common stock purchased by BancShares during the three monthsyear ended December 31, 2015.2016.
The following graph compares the cumulative total shareholder return (CTSR) of our Class A common stock during the previous five years with the CTSR over the same measurement period of the NASDAQ – Banks Index and the NASDAQ – U.S. Index. Each trend line assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 2010,2011, and that dividends were reinvested for additional shares.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s discussion and analysis of earnings and related financial data are presented to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of First Citizens BancShares, Inc. and Subsidiaries (BancShares). This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes presented within this report. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. See Note A in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Report for more detail. Although certain amounts for prior years have been reclassified to conform to statement presentations for 2015,2016, the reclassifications had no material effect on shareholders’ equity or net income as previously reported. Unless otherwise noted, the terms "we", "us" and "BancShares" refer to the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for BancShares.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of BancShares are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities and amounts reported for revenues and expenses. Our financial position and results of operations can be materially affected by these estimates and assumptions. Critical accounting policies are those policies that are most important to the determination of our financial condition and results of operations or that require management to make assumptions and estimates that are subjective or complex. The most critical accounting and reporting policies include those related to the allowance for loan and lease losses, fair value estimates, the receivable from and payable to the FDIC for loss shareshared-loss agreements, pension plan assumptions, and income taxes. Significant accounting policies are discussed in Note A in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following is a summary of our critical accounting policies that are material to our consolidated financial statements and are highly dependent on estimates and assumptions.
Allowance for loan and lease losses. The allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL) reflects the estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required loan and lease payments. The ALLL is based on management's evaluation of the risk characteristics of the loan and lease portfolio under current economic conditions and considers such factors as the financial condition of the borrower, fair market value of collateral and other items that, in our opinion, deserve current
recognition in estimating possible loan and lease losses. Our evaluation process is based on historical evidenceexperience and current trends among delinquencies, defaults and nonperforming assets.
BancShares' methodology for calculating the ALLL includes estimating a general allowance for pools of performing loans and specific allocations for significant individual impaired loans. It also includes establishing an ALLL for purchased credit-impaired loans (PCI) that have deteriorated since acquisition. The general allowance is based on historical net historical loan loss experience for homogeneous groups of loans based mostly on loan type then aggregated on the basis of similar risk characteristics and performance trends. This allowance estimate contains qualitative components that allow management to adjust reserves based on historical loan loss experience for changes in the economic environment, portfolio trends and other factors. The methodology also considers the remaining discounts recognized upon acquisition associated with purchased non-impaired loans in estimating a general allowance. The specific allowance component is determined when management believes that the collectability of an individually reviewed loan has been impaired and a loss is probable.
The ALLL for PCI loans is estimated based on the expected cash flows approach. Over the life of PCI loans, BancShares continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected on individual loans and leases or on pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics. BancShares evaluates at each balance sheet date whether the estimated cash flows and corresponding present value of its loans and leases determined using the effective interest rates has decreased and if so, recognizes provision for loan and lease losses. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, BancShares adjusts any prior recorded allowance for loan and lease losses first and then the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the loan's or pool's remaining life.
Management continuously monitors and actively manages the credit quality of the entire loan portfolio and recognizes provision expense to maintain the ALLL at an appropriate level. Specific allowances for impaired loans are determined by analyzing estimated cash flows discounted at a loan's original rate or collateral values in situations where we believe repayment is dependent on collateral liquidation. Substantially allA majority of our impaired loans are collateralized by real property or tangible personal property.
Management considers the established ALLL adequate to absorb losses that relate to loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2015,2016, although future additions may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions, collateral values, erosion of the borrower's access to liquidity and other factors. If the financial condition of our borrowers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, our estimates would be updated and additions to the allowance may be required. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the ALLL. These agencies may require the recognition of additions to the ALLL based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination. See Note E in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures.
Fair value estimates. Fair value is the price that could be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date under current market conditions. Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Examples of recurring uses of fair value include the interest rate swap that is accounted for as a cash flow hedge, available for sale securities and loans held for sale. At December 31, 2015,2016, the percentage of total assets and totalmeasured at fair value on a recurring basis was 21.5 percent. There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis was 22.0 percent and less than 1.0 percent, respectively.at December 31, 2016. We also measure certain assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis either to evaluate assets for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Examples of non-recurring uses of fair value include impaired loans, other real estate owned (OREO), goodwill, and intangible assets, including mortgage serving rights (MSRs). Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, we use various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value. As required under GAAP, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations are recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition dates. Fair values estimated as part of a business combination are determined using valuation methods and assumptions established by management.
The objective of fair value is to use market-based inputs or assumptions, when available, to estimate the fair value. Where observable market prices from transactions for identical assets or liabilities are not available, we identify what we believe to be similar assets or liabilities. If observable market prices are unavailable or impracticable to obtain for any such similar assets or liabilities, we look to other techniques by obtaining third party quotes or using modeling techniques, such as discounted cash flows, while attempting to utilize market observable assumptions to the extent available which may require making a number of significant judgments in the estimation of fair value. Fair value estimates requiring significant judgments are determined using various inputs developed by management with the appropriate skills, understanding and knowledge of the underlying asset or liability for which the fair value is being estimated to ensure the development of fair value estimates is sound. Typical pricing sources used in estimating fair values include, but are not limited to, active markets with high trading volume, third party pricing services, external appraisals, valuation models, and commercial and residential evaluation reports. In certain cases, our assessments with respect to assumptions that market participants would make may be inherently difficult to determine, and the
use of different assumptions could result in material changes to these fair value measurements. See Note M in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures regarding fair value.
Receivable from and payable to the FDIC for loss share agreements.shared-loss payable. The receivable from the FDIC for loss share agreements is measured separately from the related covered assets and is recorded at fair value at the acquisition date using projected cash flows related to the loss share agreements based on the expected reimbursements for losses and expenses at the applicable loss share coverage percentages. The receivable from the FDIC is reviewed and updated quarterly as loss estimates and timing of estimated cash flows related to covered loans and OREO change. Post-acquisition adjustments for covered loans represent the net change in loss estimates related to loans and OREO as a result of changes in expected cash flows and the ALLL related to covered loans. For loans covered by loss share agreements, subsequent decreases in the amount expected to be collected from the borrower or collateral liquidation may result in a provision for loan and lease losses, an increase in the ALLL and a proportional adjustment to the FDIC receivable for the estimated amount to be reimbursed. Subsequent increases in the amount expected to be collected from the borrower or collateral liquidation result in the reversal of any previously recorded provision for loan and lease losses and related ALLL, or prospective adjustment to the accretable yield if no provision for loan and lease losses had been recorded previously. Reversal of previously-established ALLL result in immediate adjustments to the FDIC receivable to remove amounts that were expected to be reimbursed prior to the improvement. For improvements that increase accretable yield, the FDIC receivable is reduced over the shorter of the remaining term of the loss share agreement or the life of the covered loan. Other adjustments to the FDIC receivable result from unexpected recoveries of amounts previously charged off, servicing costs that exceed initial estimates and changes to the estimated fair value of OREO.
Certain loss shareshared-loss agreements include clawback provisions that require payments to the FDIC if actual losses and expenses do not exceed a calculated amount. Our estimate of the clawback payments based on current loss and
expense projections are recorded as a payable to the FDIC. Projected cash flows are discounted to reflect the estimated timing of the payments to the FDIC. See Note U in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures.
Pension plan assumptions. BancShares has a noncontributory qualified defined benefit pension plan that covers qualifying employees (BancShares plan) and certain legacy Bancorporation employees are covered by a noncontributory qualified defined benefit pension plan (Bancorporation plan). The calculation of the benefit obligations, the future value of plan assets, funded status and related pension expense under the pension plans require the use of actuarial valuation methods and assumptions. The valuations and assumptions used to determine the future value of plan assets and liabilities are subject to management judgment and may differ significantly depending upon the assumptions used. The discount rate used to estimate the present value of the benefits to be paid under the pension plans reflect the interest rate that could be obtained for a suitable investment used to fund the benefit obligations.obligations, which was 4.30 percent for both the BancShares and Bancorporation plans during 2016, compared to 4.68 percent during 2015. For the calculation of pension expense, the assumed discount rate was 4.68 percent for both the BancShares and Bancorporation plans during 2016, compared to 4.27 percent for BancShares' plan and 4.27 percent for Bancorporation's plan during 2015, compared to 4.90 percent and 4.35 percent during 2014, respectively.2015.
We also estimate a long-term rate of return on pension plan assets that is used to estimate the future value of plan assets. We consider such factors as the actual return earned on plan assets, historical returns on the various asset classes in the plans and projections of future returns on various asset classes. The calculation of pension expense was based on an assumed expected long-term return on plan assets of 7.50 percent for both of the BancShares and Bancorporation plans during 20152016 and 2014.2015.
The assumed rate of future compensation increases is reviewed annually based on actual experience and future salary expectations. We used an assumed rate of compensation increase of 4.00 percent for both the BancShares and Bancorporation plans to calculate pension expense during 20152016 and 2014.2015. Assuming other variables remain unchanged, an increase in the rate of future compensation increases results in higher pension expense for periods following the increase in the assumed rate of future compensation increases. See Note N in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures.
Income taxes. Management estimates income tax expense using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the amount of assets and liabilities reported in the consolidated financial statements and their respective tax bases. In estimating the liabilities and corresponding expense related to income taxes, management assesses the relative merits and risks of various tax positions considering statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance. Because of the complexity of tax laws and regulations, interpretation is difficult and subject to differing judgments. Accrued income taxes payable represents an estimate of the net amounts due to or from taxing jurisdictions based upon various estimates, interpretations and judgments.
We evaluate our effective tax rate on a quarterly basis based upon the current estimate of net income, the favorable impact of various credits, statutory tax rates expected for the year and the amount of tax liability in each jurisdiction in which we operate. Annually, we file tax returns with each jurisdiction where we have tax nexus and settle our return liabilities.
Changes in estimated income tax liabilities occur periodically due to changes in actual or estimated future tax rates and projections of taxable income, interpretations of tax laws, the complexities of multi-state income tax reporting, the status of
examinations being conducted by various taxing authorities and the impact of newly enacted legislation or guidance as well as income tax accounting pronouncements. See Note P in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures.
CURRENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Improvements
The amendments in this ASU represent changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance and make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Additionally, some of the amendments will make the Codification easier to understand and easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies, providing needed clarifications, and improving the presentation of guidance in the Codification.
The transition guidance varies based on the amendments in this ASU. The amendments in this ASU that require transition guidance are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. All other amendments were effective upon issuance. We adopted the amendments effective second quarter of 2015. The adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.
FASB ASU 2015-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting - Amendments to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 115
The amendments in this ASU remove references to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) Topic 5.J as the SEC staff previously rescinded its guidance with the issuance of SAB No. 115 when the FASB issued its own pushdown accounting guidance in ASU 2014-17, an amendment we adopted effective fourth quarter of 2014. We adopted the amendments in ASU 2015-08 effective second quarter of 2015. The adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.
FASB ASU 2014-14, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure
This ASU requires a reporting entity to derecognize a mortgage loan and recognize a separate other receivable upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and (3) the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim and at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance expected to be recovered from the guarantor.
The amendments in this ASU were effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. We adopted this guidance effective first quarter of 2015. The initial adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.
FASB ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860)
This ASU aligns the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements executed as a repurchase financing with the accounting for other typical repurchase agreements. Going forward, these transactions would all be accounted for as secured borrowings. The guidance eliminates sale accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and supersedes the guidance under which a transfer of a financial asset and a contemporaneous repurchase financing could be accounted for on a combined basis as a forward agreement, which has resulted in outcomes referred to as off-balance-sheet accounting. The ASU requires a new disclosure for transactions economically similar to repurchase agreements in which the transferor retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial assets throughout the term of the transaction. The ASU also requires expanded disclosures about the nature of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings.
The accounting changes in this ASU were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. In addition, the disclosures for certain transactions accounted for as a sale were effective for the fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2014, while the disclosures for transactions accounted for as secured borrowings were required to be presented for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. We adopted the guidance effective first quarter of 2015.
The initial adoption did not have any effect on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. The new disclosures required by this ASU are included in Note J in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
FASB ASU 2014-04, Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40)
This ASU clarifies that an in-substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.
The amendments in this ASU were effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. We adopted the guidance effective first quarter of 2015. The initial adoption did not have any effect on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. The new disclosures required by this ASU are included in Note G in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
FASB ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
This ASU addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure. The amendments in this ASU (1) require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair value; (3) require public business entities to use exit prices, rather than entry prices, when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (4) require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial assets on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; (5) eliminate the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (6) require separate presentation in other comprehensive income of the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments; and (7) state that a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets related to available-for-sale securities should be evaluated in combination with other deferred tax assets.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The ASU only permits early adoption of the instrument-specific credit risk provision. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard and we will adopt during the first quarter of 2018.
FASB ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments
This ASU eliminates the requirement to retrospectively account for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination and requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts must be calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this ASU with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. We will adoptadopted the guidance effective in the first quarter of 2016 and do not anticipate any impact on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations as a result of adoption.2016.
FASB ASU 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying
During the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs
This ASU simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this update.
This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 for public business entities, and is to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We will adopt the guidance effective in the firstthird quarter of 2016, adjustments were made to the acquisition fair value for the FDIC-assisted acquisition of FCSB. The adjustments were primarily based upon updated collateral valuations, resulting in an increase of $837 thousand to the gain on acquisition. These adjustments brought the total gain on the transaction to $3.0 million and do not anticipate any impactare included in noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
During the second quarter of 2016, adjustments were made to the acquisition fair values for the FDIC-assisted acquisition of NMSB, primarily based upon updated collateral valuations, resulting in an increase of $1.2 million to the gain on our consolidated financial position or consolidated resultsacquisition. These adjustments brought the total gain on the transaction to $2.9 million and are included in noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of operations as a result of adoption.Income.
FASB ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis
This ASU improves targeted areas of consolidation guidance for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. In addition to reducing the number of consolidation models from four to two, the new standard places more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest, reducing the frequency of the application of related-party guidance when determining a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE), and changing consolidation conclusions for public and private companies in several industries that typically make use of limited partnerships or VIEs.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for periodsfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 for public business entities. Early adoption is permitted.entities, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We will adoptadopted the guidance effective in the first quarter of 20162016. We evaluated our investments in partnerships and dolimited liability entities under the new guidance and concluded that not consolidating was still appropriate and did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
FASB ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash
The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This ASU does not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents.
This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 for public business entities, including interim periods within those fiscal years. BancShares does not anticipate any significant impactaffect on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
FASB ASU 2016-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held Through Related Parties That Are under Common Control
This ASU does not change the characteristics of a primary beneficiary in current GAAP; however, it requires that a reporting entity, in determining whether it satisfies the second characteristic of a primary beneficiary, to include all of its direct variable interests in a VIE and, on a proportionate basis, its indirect variable interests in a VIE held through related parties, including related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity. If, after performing that assessment, a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a VIE concludes that it does not have the characteristics of a primary beneficiary, the amendments continue to require that reporting entity to evaluate whether it and one or more of its related parties under common control, as a group, have the characteristics of a primary beneficiary, then the party within the related party group that is most closely associated with the VIE is the primary beneficiary.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We will adopt the guidance during the first quarter of 2017. BancShares does not anticipate any effect on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations as a result of adoption.
FASB ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory
This ASU states that an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory, such as intellectual property or property, plant and equipment, when the transfer occurs. This ASU does not change GAAP for an intra-entity transfer of inventory. Current GAAP prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for pubic business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operation and we will adopt the guidance during the first quarter of 2018.
FASB ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments
This ASU addresses the diversity in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on (1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; (2) settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments; (3) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; (4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; (5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; (6) distributions received from equity method investees; (7) beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and (8) separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance requires application using a retrospective transition method. We will adopt the guidance during the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
FASB ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
This ASU eliminates the delayed recognition of the full amount of credit losses until the loss was probable of occurring and instead will reflect an entity's current estimate of all expected credit losses. The amendments in this ASU broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The ASU does not specify a method for measuring expected credit losses and allows an entity to apply methods that reasonably reflect its expectations of the credit loss estimate based on the entity's size, complexity and risk profile. In addition, the disclosures of credit quality indicators in relation to the amortized cost of financing receivables, a current disclosure requirement, are further disaggregated by year of origination.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt the guidance by the first quarter of 2020 with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption, our allowance for loan and lease losses will be impacted by the loan portfolio composition and quality at the adoption date as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time.
FASB ASU 2016-07, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting
This ASU eliminates the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The ASU requires that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor's previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. Therefore, upon qualifying for the equity method of accounting, no retroactive adjustment of the investment is required. Further, the ASU requires that an entity that has an available-for-sale equity security that becomes qualified for the equity method of accounting recognize through earnings, the unrealized gain or loss in accumulated other comprehensive income at the date the investment becomes qualified for use of the equity method.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We will adopt the guidance during the first quarter of 2017. BancShares does not anticipate any effect on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations as a result of adoption.
FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)
This ASU increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The key difference between existing standards and this ASU is the requirement for lessees to recognize on their balance sheet all lease contracts. An entity may make an accounting election by classification to not recognize leases with terms less than 12 months on their balance sheet. Both a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the leased asset, and a lease liability, representing the contractual obligation, are required to be recognized on the balance sheet of the lessee at lease commencement. Further, this ASU requires lessees to classify leases as either operating or finance leases, which are substantially similar to the current operating and capital leases classifications. The distinction between these two classifications under the new standard does not relate to balance sheet treatment, but relates to treatment in the statements of income and cash flows. Lessor guidance remains largely unchanged with the exception of how a lessor determines the appropriate lease classification for each lease to better align the lessor guidance with revised lessee classification guidance.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We will adopt during the first quarter of 2019. While we are
currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, we expect an increase to the Consolidated Balance Sheets for right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities, as well as resulting depreciation expense of the right-of-use assets and interest expense of the lease liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Income, for arrangements previously accounted for as operating leases.
FASB ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
This ASU addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of certain financial instruments. The amendments in this ASU (1) require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without a readily determinable fair value; (3) eliminate the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (4) require public business entities to use exit price notion, rather than entry prices, when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (5) require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial assets on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; (6) require separate presentation in other comprehensive income of the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments; and (7) state that a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets related to available-for-sale securities should be evaluated in combination with other deferred tax assets.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The ASU only permits early adoption of the instrument-specific credit risk provision. We will adopt during the first quarter of 2018 with a cumulative-effect adjustment from AOCI to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. The cumulative-effect adjustment will be impacted by the equity securities portfolio composition and fair value prices available at the date of adoption.
FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
In May 2014, the FASB issued a standard on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers with the core principle being for companies to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also results in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provides guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively and improves guidance for multiple-element arrangements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations, to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, to clarify guidance for identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, to clarify and improve the guidance for certain aspects of Topic 606.
Per ASU 2015-14, Deferral of the Effective Date, this guidance was deferred and is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Our revenue is balanced between net interest income on financial assets and liabilities, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of the new guidance, and noninterest income. We are currently evaluatingcontinue to evaluate the impact of the new standard on our noninterest income and we willon our presentation and disclosures. We expect to adopt the ASU during the first quarter of 2018 using one of twowith a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings and the modified retrospective application methods.approach will likely be used.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
BancShares’ earnings and cash flows are primarily derived from our commercial and retail banking activities. We gather deposits from retail and commercial customers and secure funding through various non-deposit sources.

Interest rates have presented significant challenges to commercial banks’ efforts to generate earnings and shareholder value. While interest rates were higher at the end of the year, our strategy continues to focus on maintaining an interest rate risk profile that will benefit net interest income in a rising rate environment. Management has embarkeddrives to this goal by focusing on several strategic initiatives to better positioncore customer deposits and loans in the company to counter these challenges. Thetargeted interest rate risk profile. Additionally, our initiatives focus on core revenue growth through broader products and services, control of noninterest expenses, optimization of our branch network, and further enhancements to our technology. Additionally, we continue to pursue strategic acquisitionstechnology and mergers to expand our customer base and increase efficiency and productivity.delivery channels.
In lending, our revenue generating initiatives concentrate on broadening and diversifying the loan portfolio through loan products with high growth potential. These efforts include expanded product offerings in the commercial real estate construction and non-owner occupied commercial real estate markets. We have also expanded our efforts in non-real estate secured commercial and industrial lending and have enhanced our product menu for high net worth individuals.
Our initiatives also pursue additional non-interest fee income through enhanced credit card offerings and expanded wealth management services and enhanced credit card offerings. In wealth management, we have broadened our products and services to better align with the specialized needs and wants of those customers.merchant services. We have redesigned our credit card programs to offer more competitive products, intended to both increase the number of accounts and frequency of card usage. Enhancements include more comprehensive reward programs (our cash back card was released in September of 2015) and improved card benefits. In wealth management, we have broadened our products and services to better align with the specialized needs and wants of those customers.
Management is pursuing opportunities to improve our operational efficiency and increase profitability through expense reductions.reductions, while continuing enterprise sustainability projects to stabilize the operating environment. Such cost management initiatives include the automation of certain manual processes, elimination of duplicated and outdated systems, enhancements to existing technology and reduction of discretionary spending. We review vendor agreements and larger third party contracts for cost savings. In the third quarter of 2015, we completed the conversion of legacy Bancorporation systems and customer accounts, which included 172 branches in South Carolina and Georgia.
We also seek to increase profitability through optimizing our branch network. Our goals are to increase efficiencies and control costs while effectively executing an operating model that best serves our customers’ needs. We seek the appropriate footprint and staffing levels to take efficient advantage of the revenue opportunities in each of our markets.
Following a comprehensive evaluation of our core technology systems and related business processes, we concluded that significant investments were required to ensure we are able to meet changing business requirements and to support a growing organization. The projects to modernize our systems and associated facilities began in 2013 and have been substantially completed at the end of 2015. The projects strengthened our business continuity and disaster recovery efforts and ultimately reduced operational risk. The magnitude and scope of this effort was significant with total costs of approximately $115.0 million, and we expect operating expenses to increase as the completed projects are amortized over their expected useful lives.
Recent Economic and Industry Developments
Various external factors influence the focus of our business efforts and the results of our operations can change significantly based on those external factors. Based on the latest real gross domestic product (GDP) information available, the Bureau of Economic Analysis’ advance estimate of fourth quarter 20152016 GDP growth is 0.7was 1.9 percent, showing less growth compared to the 2.0down from 3.5 percent growth during the third quarter of 2015. The estimated decline in real GDP growth in the fourththird quarter 2016. The estimated real GDP growth during the quarter was due to a drop in exports and slowed consumer spending. Fourth quarter results indicated positive contributions from residential fixed investments, private inventory investments, and federalstate and local government spending.spending, offset by a decline in exports, slowed consumer spending and an increase in imports. Consumer spending also positively contributed to fourth quarter GDP growth although at a lower rate in comparison to the prior quarter. For all of 2015,2016, the economy grew by 2.41.6 percent, matching 2014 growth.down from an increase of 2.6 percent in 2015.
The U.S. unemployment rate dropped from 5.65.0 percentin December 2015 to 4.7 percent in December 2014 to 5.0 percent in December 2015, the lowest rate since April 2008.2016. However, according to the U.S. Department of Labor, nonfarm payroll employment growth in 20152016 was 2.72.2 million, compared to 3.12.7 million in 2014.2015.
The Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) indicated in the fourth quarter that “economicthe labor market continued to strengthen and economic activity has been expandingexpanded at a moderate pace.” In light of the cumulative progress made, the FOMC decided to raise the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points. In determining the timing and size of future adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate, the FOMC will assess realized and expected economic conditions relative to its objectives of maximum employment and 2 percent inflation. The FOMC expects that economic activity will expand at a moderate pace and labor market conditions will evolve in a manner that will warrant onlycontinue to strengthen with gradual increases in the federal funds rate in the future.
The housing market remained solid during the year, fueled by low mortgage interest rates, economic growth and job creation. An estimated 501,000563,000 new homes were purchased in 2015,2016, up 14.512.2 percent, from the 20142015 figure of 437,000.501,000. Purchases of existing homes in 2016 were at a seasonally adjusted rate of 5.5 million, up 7.73.8 percent, compared to the 20142015 rate of 5.15.3 million.
The trends in the banking industry are similar to those of the broader economy as shown in the latest national banking results from the third quarter of 2015.2016. FDIC-insured institutions reported a 5.112.9 percent increase in aggregate net income compared to the third quarter of 2014,2015, mainly attributable to an increase in net operating revenue and a 2.9 percent decline inhigher noninterest expense.income. Across the industry, bankbanking industry average net interest margin declinedincreased to 3.083.18 percent in the third quarter of 20152016 from 3.153.08 percent in the same quarter a year ago. Total loans and leases increased by 6.8 percent from the same quarter a year ago and increased slightly from 3.06 percent in the second quarter of 2015. This was the second quarter in a row that the industry net interest margin was higher than the 30-year low of 3.02 percent, reached in the first quarter of 2015. Despite the net interest margin decline, 58.9 percent of banks reported year-over-yearprimarily due to growth in
quarterly earnings. Net charge-offs and delinquent loans and lease balances continue to decline across most major loan categories. residential mortgage loans.

Noninterest income was also positively impacted by a $13.1$9.3 million reduction in FDIC receivable adjustments, higher recoveries of PCI loans previously charged off, an increase in mortgage income, and higher merchant and cardholder services income. These increases were offset by a decline in fees from processing services as substantially all fees recorded in 2014 related to payments received from Bancorporation prior to the merger and a $29.1 million gain recognized in 2014 on Bancorporation shares of stock owned by BancShares that were canceled on the merger date.adjustments.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATIONREGULATORY CAPITAL
The Dodd-Frank Act mandated that stress tests be developed and performed to ensure that financial institutions have sufficient capital to absorb losses and support operations during multiple economic and shock scenarios. Bank holding companies with total consolidated assets between $10 billion and $50 billion, including BancShares, will undergo annual company-run stress tests. As directed by the Federal Reserve, summaries of BancShares’ results in the severely adverse stress tests are available to the public. The results of stress testing activities will be considered in combination with other risk management and monitoring practices as part of our risk management program.
The Dodd-Frank Act also imposed new regulatory capital requirements for banks which has resulted in the disallowance of qualified trust preferred capital securities as Tier 1 capital. As of December 31, 2015,2016, BancShares had $128.5$121.5 million in trust preferred capital securities that were outstanding and, based on the Inter-Agency Capital Rule Notice, 75 percent, or $96.4 millionall of these trust preferred capital securities were excluded from Tier 1 capital beginningeffective January 1, 2015, with the remaining 25 percent, or $32.1 million, to be excluded beginning January 1, 2016.
In July 2013, Bank regulatory agencies approved new globalBasel III regulatory capital guidelines (Basel III) aimed at strengthening existing capital requirements for bank holding companies through a combination of higher minimum capital requirements, new capital conservation buffers and more conservative definitions of capital and balance sheet exposure. BancShares implemented the requirements of Basel III effective January 1, 2015, subject to a transition period for several aspects of the rule. Table 2 describes the minimum and well-capitalized requirements for the transitional period beginning during 2016 and the fully-phased-in requirements that become effective during 2019. As of December 31, 2015,2016, BancShares' common equity Tier 1 ratio was 12.5112.42 percent, compared to the fully-phased in well-capitalized minimum of 9.007.00 percent, which includes the 2.50 percent minimum conservation buffer.
Management is not aware of any further recommendations or proposals by regulatory authorities that, if implemented, would have or would be reasonably likely to have a material effect on liquidity, capital ratios or results of operations.

Although we are unable to control the external factors that influence our business, by maintaining high levels of balance sheet liquidity, prudently managing our interest rate exposures, ensuring our capital positions remain strong and actively monitoring asset quality, we seek to minimize the potentially adverse risks of unforeseen and unfavorable economic trends and take advantage of favorable economic conditions and opportunities when appropriate.

In February 2015,On September 1, 2016, FCB enteredcompleted the merger of Cordia and its subsidiary, BVA into anFCB. Under the terms of the merger agreement, cash consideration of $5.15 was paid to Cordia’s shareholders for each of their shares of Cordia’s common stock, with the FDIC to purchase certain assets and assume certain liabilitiestotal consideration paid of CCBT.$37.1 million. The transactionmerger allowed FCB to expandstrengthen its presence in Georgiathe greater Richmond, Virginia area as CCBTCordia operated eightsix BVA branches in Atlanta, Stone Mountain, Albany, AugustaRichmond, Midlothian, Chesterfield, Colonial Heights and Savannah. In June of 2015, FCB closed one of the branches in Atlanta. This is an FDIC-assisted transaction; however, it has no loss share agreement.Chester, Virginia.
The CCBTCordia transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding closing date fair values becomes available.
As a result of the transaction, FCB recorded $10.8 million of goodwill. The amount of goodwill recorded represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired. This premium paid reflects the increased market share and related synergies that are expected to result from the acquisition. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes as the merger is accounted for as a qualified stock purchase.
Table 3 provides the purchase price as of the acquisition date and the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values.

During the secondthird quarter of 2015,2016, adjustments were made to the acquisition fair values primarily based upon updated collateral valuations resulting in an increase of $5.4 million$837 thousand to the gain on acquisition. These adjustments were applied retroactively to the first quarter of 2015 and brought the total gain on the transaction to $42.9$3.0 million which is included in noninterest income onin the Consolidated Statements of Income. The total after-tax impact of the gain was $26.4 million.

First Citizens Bancorporation, Inc. and First Citizens Bank and Trust Company, Inc.
On October 1, 2014, BancShares completed the merger of Bancorporation with and into BancShares pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 10, 2014, as amended on July 29, 2014. FCB-SC merged with and into FCB on January 1, 2015. The conversion of systems and customer accounts acquired from Bancorporation was completed in the third quarter of 2015 which included the systems integration of 172 branches in South Carolina and Georgia.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, each share of Bancorporation common stock converted into the right to receive 4.00 shares of BancShares' Class A common stock and $50.00 cash, unless the holder elected for each share to be converted into the right to receive 3.58 shares of BancShares' Class A common stock and 0.42 shares of BancShares' Class B common stock. BancShares issued 2,586,762 Class A common shares at a fair value of $560.4 million and 18,202 Class B common shares at a fair value of $3.9 million to Bancorporation shareholders. Also, cash paid to Bancorporation shareholders was $30.4 million. At the time of the merger, BancShares owned 32,042 shares of common stock in Bancorporation with an approximate fair value of $29.6 million. The fair value of common stock owned by BancShares in Bancorporation was considered part of the purchase price, and the shares ceased to exist after completion of the merger.
In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, all assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Per the acquisition method of accounting, these fair values were subject to refinement for up to one year after the acquisition date. As a result of the Bancorporation transaction, during the 4th quarter of 2014, BancShares recorded loans with a fair value of $4.49 billion, investment securities with a fair value of $2.01 billion and assumed deposits with a fair value of $7.17 billion. BancShares recorded $4.2 million of goodwill and $109.4 million of identifiable intangible assets of which $88.0 million was core deposit intangibles.

BancShares incurred merger-related expenses of $12.3 million and $8.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, for the Bancorporation transaction. Total cumulative merger-related costs incurred through December 31, 2015 were $20.3 million for this transaction. As of December 31, 2015, all merger related activities are complete and no further merger-related expenses are anticipated.
The amount of goodwill recorded from the Bancorporation merger reflects the increased market share and related synergies that are expected to result from the acquisition, and represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes as the merger is accounted for as a tax-free exchange.
1st Financial Services Corporation and Mountain 1st Bank & Trust Company
On January 1, 2014, FCB completed its merger with 1st Financial Services Corporation (1st Financial) and its wholly-owned banking subsidiary Mountain 1st Bank & Trust Company. FCB paid $10.0 million to acquire 1st Financial, including $8.0
million to acquire and subsequently retire the 1st Financial securities that had been issued under the Troubled Asset Relief Program.
The 1st Financial transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, as such, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date. Assets acquired, excluding goodwill, were $612.9 million, including $307.9 million in loans and leases, $237.4 million of investment securities available for sale, $28.2 million in cash and $3.8 million in core deposit intangibles. Liabilities assumed were $635.8 million, including $631.9 million of deposits. Goodwill of $32.9 million was recorded equaling the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired on the acquisition date and is deductible for income tax purposes as the 1st Financial transaction is a taxable asset acquisition.
Merger costs related to the 1st Financial transaction were $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.

North Milwaukee State Bank
On March 11, 2016, FCB entered into an agreement with the FDIC, as Receiver, to purchase certain assets and assume certain liabilities of NMSB with two branches in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The acquisition provided FCB with the opportunity to grow capital and enhance earnings. This is an FDIC-assisted transaction; however, it has no shared-loss agreement.
The NMSB transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding closing date fair values becomes available.
During the second quarter of 2016, adjustments were made to the acquisition fair values primarily based upon updated collateral valuations resulting in an increase of $1.2 million to the gain on acquisition. These adjustments brought the total gain on the transaction to $2.9 million which is included in noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

(1) Date of transaction and fair value of loans acquired represent when Bancorporation acquired the entities and the fair value of the loans on that date.
Acquisition accountingGenerally, losses on single family residential loans are covered under shared-loss agreements for ten years. As of December 31, 2016, shared-loss protection has expired or has been terminated for all non-single family residential loans. Shared-loss protection remains only for single family residential loans acquired from UWB, VB and issues affecting comparability of financial statements. As estimated exposures related to the acquired assetsGB in FDIC-assisted transactions change based on post-acquisition events, our adherence to GAAP and accounting policy elections we have made affect the comparability of our current results of operations to earlier periods. Several of the key issues affecting comparability are as follows:
When post-acquisition events suggest that the amount of cash flows we will ultimately receive for$84.8 million.
FDIC shared-loss termination. During 2016, FCB entered into an FDIC-assisted loan is less than originally expected:
| |
▪ | An ALLL is established for the post-acquisition exposure that has emergedagreement with a corresponding charge to provision for loan and lease losses; |
| |
▪ | For FDIC-assisted transactions with loss share agreements, if the expected loss is projected to occur during the relevant loss share period, the FDIC receivable is increased to reflect the indemnified portion of the post-acquisition exposure with a corresponding increase to noninterest income; |
When post-acquisition events suggest that the amountFDIC to terminate five of cash flows we will ultimately receive for an FDIC-assisted loan is greater than originally expected:
| |
▪ | Any ALLL that was previously established for post-acquisition exposure is reversed with a corresponding reduction to provision for loan and lease losses; if no ALLL was established in earlier periods, the amount of the improvement in the cash flow projection results in a reclassification from the nonaccretable difference created at the acquisition date to an accretable yield; the newly-identified accretable yield is accreted into income over the remaining life of the loan as interest income; |
| |
▪ | For FDIC-assisted transactions with loss share agreements, the FDIC receivable is adjusted immediately to reverse previously recognized impairment and prospectively by amortizing the improvement in cash flows through the shorter of the termination date of loss share coverage or the life of the loan; |
| |
▪ | Recoveries on these loans that have been previously charged-off are additional sources of noninterest income; BancShares records these recoveries as noninterest income rather than as an adjustment to the allowance for loan and lease losses since charge-offs on these loans are primarily recorded through the nonaccretable difference. |
When actual payments received on FDIC-assisted loans are greater than initial estimates, large nonrecurring discount accretion or reductions inFCB's nine shared-loss agreements, including TVB, SAB, WFNB, ABT and CCB. Under the ALLL may be recognized duringterms of the agreement, FCB made a specific period; discount accretion is recognized as an increase to interest income; reductions in the ALLL are recorded as a reduction in the provision for loan and lease losses;
For FDIC-assisted transactions with loss share agreements, adjustmentsnet payment of $20.1 million to the FDIC as consideration for early termination of the shared-loss agreements. Also, FCB wrote-off $1.5 million of the FDIC shared-loss receivable resulting from changes in estimated cash flows are basedand released $18.2 million of the FDIC shared-loss payable associated with the terminated agreements. As a result, FCB recognized a $3.4 million loss on the reimbursement provisiontermination of the applicable loss shareshared-loss agreements.
FDIC shared-loss payable (clawback). The early termination agreement eliminated FCB's FDIC shared-loss payable for SAB and CCB. The remaining shared-loss payable balance at December 31, 2016 was $97.0 million. In conjunction with the FDIC. Adjustmentsearly termination, FCB adjusted the FDIC shared-loss payable under the two remaining shared-loss agreements with clawback provisions and released other related reserves. The clawback liabilities were adjusted in order to conform to the FDIC receivable partially offsetmethodology used to determine the net termination payment. The adjustment to the FDIC-assisted loan carrying value, butclawback liabilities is accounted for by management as a change in estimate. The total one-time pre-tax benefit of these adjustments was $20.0 million. The resulting positive net impact to pre-tax earnings from the rateearly termination of the change to the FDIC receivable relative to the change in the acquired loan carrying value is not constant. The loss shareshared-loss agreements establish reimbursement rates for losses incurred within certain ranges. In some loss share agreements, higher loss estimates result in higher reimbursement rates, while in other loss share agreements, higher loss estimates trigger a reduction in the reimbursement rates. In addition, some of the loss share agreements include clawback provisions that require the purchaser to remit a payment to the FDIC in the event that the aggregate amount of losses is less than a loss estimate established by the FDIC. The adjustments to the FDIC receivable based on changes in loss estimates are measured based on the actual reimbursement rates.was $16.6 million during 2016.
Receivable from FDIC for loss share agreements.Table 7 Theprovides the various terms of each loss shareshared-loss agreement and the components of the receivable from the FDIC are provided in Table 6. As of December 31, 2015, the FDIC receivable included $5.0 million of expected payments to the FDIC and $9.1 million we expect to recover through prospective amortization of the asset due to post-acquisition improvements in the related loans. Generally, losses on single family residential loans are covered for ten years. All other loans are generally covered for five years. During the year, loss share protection expired for loans acquired from First Regional Bank and non-single family residential loans acquired from Sun American Bank and Williamsburg First National Bank. During 2016, loss share protection will expire for non-single family residential loans acquired from United Western Bank, Atlantic Bank & Trust and Colorado Capital Bank. Protection for all other covered assets extends beyond December 31, 2016.FDIC.
The timing of expected losses on the FDIC-assisted assets with loss share agreements is monitored by management to ensure the losses will occur during the respective loss share terms. When projected losses are expected to occur after expiration of the relevant loss share agreement, the FDIC receivable is adjusted to reflect the forfeiture of loss share protection.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2015 increased by $214.8 million, or 30.3 percent, compared to the same period in 2014. Interest income was up $208.8 million benefiting from a full year impact of the Bancorporation merger and core originated loan growth and a higher yield on the investment portfolio. Interest expense declined by $6.0 million primarily due to runoff of high cost time deposits and payoffs of short-term borrowings. Net interest income for 2014 was $710.1 million, a $30.1 million decline from 2013, primarily due to decreased PCI portfolio interest income due to continued loan runoff, partially offset by originated loan growth, the contribution from the Bancorporation merger, higher investment portfolio yields and lower funding costs.
The year-to-date taxable-equivalent net interest margin for 2015 was 3.22 percent, compared to 3.21 percent during 2014. The margin improvement was primarily due to originated loan growth, higher investment securities yields and lower funding costs, offset by loan yield compression and continued PCI loan portfolio runoff. Loan yields continue to be impacted by low interest
rates and competitive loan pricing. Investment yields improved 32 basis points compared to 2014 primarily due to reinvesting matured investments and proceeds from investment sales into higher yielding investments. The year-to-date taxable equivalent net interest margin declined 61 basis points to 3.21 percent in 2014, compared to 2013, primarily due to loan yield compression as a result of continued PCI loan runoff, offset by improvements in investment yields, originated loan growth and lower funding costs.
Average interest-earning assets increased by $6.66 billion, or by 30.0 percent, for the year ended December 31, 2015. Growth in average interest-earning assets during 2015 was funded primarily by deposit growth and was also impacted by the Bancorporation merger. Within interest-earning assets, loans experienced the most significant increase, primarily due to originated loan growth. The year-to-date taxable-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets declined 6 basis points to 3.38 percent compared to 2014. The decline was primarily the result of PCI loan yield being replaced with higher quality, lower yielding originated loans, partially offset by improvement in the investment yield. Average interest-earning assets increased $2.80 billion between 2014 and 2013 primarily due to the impact of the Bancorporation merger.
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $3.71 billion for the full year of 2015 when compared to 2014 and increased $1.36 billion between 2014 and 2013. The rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 10 basis points to 0.23 percent for the full year 2015, compared to the same period of 2014 and decreased 8 basis points between 2014 and 2013. The decline for both periods was the result of lower borrowing levels and funding costs.
Interest income was $969.2 million during 2015, an increase of $208.8 million, or by 27.5 percent, when compared to 2014. Interest income from loans and leases increased by $174.4 million, or 24.9 percent, to $874.9 million. The 2015 increase in loan interest income was primarily the result of strong originated loan growth and the full year impact from the Bancorporation merger. Interest income decreased by $36.4 million between 2014 and 2013 primarily as a result of lower accretion income, offset by the positive impact of the Bancorporation merger and originated loan growth.
Accretion income on acquired loans increased in 2015 by $15.0 million to $133.3 million, due primarily to non-PCI accretion income. Non-PCI accretion income was $18.7 millioncompared to $5.9 million in 2014 due to the full year impact of non-PCI loans acquired in the Bancorporation merger.
PCI accretion income was $114.6 million, compared to $112.4 million in 2014. The increase in 2015 was due to the full year impact of the PCI loans acquired in the Bancorporation merger and the contribution from the CCBT acquisition, offset by the continued reduction in PCI loan balances. Additionally, PCI accretion income increased by $3.9 million in 2015 due to a reclassification between accretable yield and the allowance for loan losses. Both accretion income and provision expense increased by $3.9 million due to this reclassification, which resulted in no net impact on earnings. The PCI portfolio declined from December 31, 2014 by $236.0 million, reflecting continued loan runoff of $373.6 million offset by net loans acquired from CCBT which totaled $137.6 million at December 31, 2015. Other factors affecting the amount of PCI accretion income include unscheduled loan payments and changes in estimated cash flows and impairment.
Accretion income on acquired loans decreased by $106.4 million between 2014 and 2013. PCI accretion income was $112.4 million in 2014, compared to $224.7 million in 2013. The decrease was primarily due to the continued reduction in PCI loan balances. Non-PCI accretion income was $5.9 million in 2014 resulting from loans and leases acquired in the Bancorporation merger. There was no non-PCI accretion income in 2013.
Interest income earned on investment securities was $88.3 million, $56.2 million, and $36.9 million during 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The $32.0 million increase in 2015 was the result of higher average balances and improved yields. Higher average balances contributed $16.4 million to interest income earned on investment securities, primarily due to the full year impact of the Bancorporation merger. Additionally, reinvesting proceeds from matured securities and investment securities sales into higher yielding investments contributed to the 32 basis points improvement in investment yields. Interest income earned on investment securities in 2014 increased $19.3 million from $36.9 million recorded during 2013, primarily due to investment securities added from the Bancorporation merger, coupled with a 23 basis point increase in the taxable-equivalent yield. The increase in taxable-equivalent yield in 2014 on the investment portfolio was due to reinvesting the proceeds from maturing government agency securities into U.S. Treasury securities and government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities at higher yields.
Interest expense was $44.3 million in 2015, a $6.0 million, or 12.0 percent, decrease from 2014, the result of a 10 basis point decrease in the rate on interest-bearing liabilities, offset by an increase of $3.53 billion in average deposits. The increase in average deposits was primarily due to the Bancorporation merger and organic growth in low-cost demand, checking with interest and savings accounts, offset by runoff in time deposits. Much of the reduction in funding costs results from a change in the deposit mix. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was $21.2 million in 2015, a decrease of $3.6 million, compared to $24.8 million in 2014. Interest expense on borrowings decreased $2.5 million from 2014 to $23.1 million in 2015. Interest
expense was $50.4 million in 2014, a $6.3 million decrease compared to 2013, primarily the result of an 8 basis-point decrease in the rate on interest-bearing liabilities.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income of $944.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 increased by $19.8 million, or 2.1 percent, compared to the same period in 2015. Interest income was up $18.5 million primarily due to strong core originated loan growth and higher investment interest income, offset by a decline in loan interest income on the PCI loan portfolio due to continued run-off. Interest expense declined by $1.2 million primarily due to continued run-off of time deposits and maturities in 2015 of short-term borrowings, partially offset by higher interest expense on long-term borrowings due to an increase in FHLB borrowing during the year used to mitigate interest rate risk on long-term fixed-rate loans. Net interest income for 2015 was $924.9 million, a $214.8 million increase from 2014, primarily due to originated loan growth, the full year impact from the October 1, 2014 Bancorporation merger, a higher yield on the investment portfolio and a decrease in interest expense.
36The year-to-date taxable-equivalent net interest margin for 2016 was 3.14 percent, compared to 3.22 percent during 2015. The margin decline was due to higher yielding PCI loan portfolio run-off, partially offset by the favorable impacts of originated loan growth, higher yields on investments and lower funding costs. Loan yields continue to be impacted by low interest rates and competitive loan pricing. Investment yields improved 20 basis points compared to 2015 primarily due to reinvesting investment securities cash flows from maturities and sales into higher yielding short duration mortgage-backed securities. The year-to-date taxable equivalent net interest margin increased 1 basis point to 3.22 percent in 2015, compared to 2014, primarily due to originated loan growth, higher investment securities yields and lower funding costs, offset by loan yield compression and continued PCI loan portfolio run-off.
Average interest-earning assets increased $1.38 billion, or by 4.8 percent, for the year ended December 31, 2016. Growth in average interest-earning assets during 2016 was due to originated loan growth funded primarily by deposit growth and was also impacted
by the NMSB, FCSB and Cordia acquisitions. The year-to-date taxable-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets declined 10 basis points to 3.28 percent compared to 2015. The decline was primarily the result of PCI loan yield being replaced with higher quality, lower yielding originated loans, partially offset by improvement in the investment yield. Average interest-earning assets increased $6.66 billion between 2015 and 2014 primarily due to originated loan growth and the full year impact of the Bancorporation merger.
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $171.6 million for the full year of 2016, compared to 2015 primarily due to incremental FHLB borrowings of $150.0 million in 2016 to mitigate interest rate risk from long-term fixed-rate loans. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $3.71 billion between 2015 and 2014 reflecting the full year impact of the Bancorporation merger. The rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 1 basis point to 0.22 percent for the full year 2016, compared to 2015 and decreased 10 basis points between 2015 and 2014. The decline for both periods was primarily the result of lower deposit and borrowing costs.
Interest income was $987.8 million during 2016, an increase of $18.5 million, or 1.9 percent, when compared to 2015. Interest income from loans and leases was 876.5 million during 2016, an increase of $1.6 million when compared to 2015. The 2016 increase in loan interest income was the result of a $39.5 million increase in non-PCI loan interest income due to originated loan growth, partially offset by a $37.9 million decline in PCI loan interest income due to continued portfolio run-off. Interest income increased $208.8 million between 2015 and 2014 due to originated loan growth and the full year impact from the Bancorporation merger.
Interest income earned on investment securities was $96.8 million, $88.3 million, and $56.2 million during 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. The $8.5 million increase in 2016 was due to a 20 basis point improvement in the investment yield resulting from reinvesting investment securities cash flows from maturities and sales into higher yielding short duration mortgage-backed securities. Interest income earned on investment securities in 2015 increased $32.0 million, compared to 2014, primarily due to higher average balances resulting from investing cash flows from deposit growth and investment securities maturities and sales back into the investment securities portfolio, as well as the full year impact from the Bancorporation merger. The investment securities portfolio 32 basis point increase in the taxable-equivalent yield due to reinvesting investment securities cash flows from maturities and sales into higher yielding investments.
Interest expense was $43.1 million in 2016, a $1.2 million decrease from 2015, primarily the result of a 1 basis point decrease in the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities due to a shift in the deposit mix to low-cost demand accounts. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was $18.2 million in 2016, a decrease of $3.1 million, compared to 2015, primarily due to a decline in time deposit balances. Interest expense on borrowings increased $1.8 million from 2015 to $24.9 million in 2016 primarily related to an increase in long-term borrowings, partially offset by a decline in interest paid on short-term borrowings. Interest expense was $44.3 million in 2015, a $6.0 million decrease compared to 2014, primarily the result of a 10 basis-point decrease in the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

Noninterest income is an essential component of our total revenue and is critical to our ability to sustain adequate profitability levels. The primary sources of noninterest income have traditionally consisted of cardholder services income, merchant services income, service charges on deposit accounts, and revenues derived from wealth management services and fees from processing services. Recoveries on PCI loans that have been previously charged-off are additional sources of noninterest income. BancShares records the portion of recoveries not covered under loss shareshared-loss agreements as noninterest income rather than as an adjustment to the allowance for loan losses since charge-offslosses. Charge-offs on PCI loans are recorded against the discount recognized on the date of acquisition versus through the allowance for loan losses.losses unless an allowance was established subsequent to acquisition date due to a decline in expected cash flows.
During 2015,2016, noninterest income was $488.1 million, compared to $467.1 million in 2015. Excluding the $5.8 million in gains on the NMSB and FCSB acquisitions in 2016 and the $42.9 million CCBT acquisition gain in 2015, total noninterest income increased $58.1 million. The year-to-date change was attributable to the following drivers:
Merchant and cardholder services income increased by $17.6 million, or 10.9 percent, reflecting solid sales volume growth.
The $16.6 million impact of the early termination of the FDIC shared-loss agreements.
Gains on sales of securities increased $15.9 million in 2016 in response to changing market conditions.
Lower FDIC receivable adjustments of $9.3 million resulting from a reduction in claims and lower amortization expense due to the early termination of the shared-loss agreements during 2016.
Noninterest income was $467.1 million in 2015, compared to $343.2 million in 2014. The $123.9 million increase from 2014 was primarily driven by the full year impact of the Bancorporation merger and the $42.9 million CCBT acquisition gain. Additionally, the year-to-date change was attributable to the following drivers:
Sales volumes for both merchant and cardholder services increased approximately 9.0 percent, excludingExcluding the full year impact of Bancorporation, as recent revenue generating initiatives focused on growing these products.
Mortgageboth merchant and cardholder services income benefited in 2015 from a low rate environment resulting inincreased by approximately 9.0 percent due to higher production and sales volumes as well as improved execution on sales of mortgage loans into the secondary market.
Gains on sales of securities were $10.8 million in 2015 triggered in response to changing market conditions and to better position the investment portfolio for a rising rate environment. In 2014, a $29.1 million gain was recognized on Bancorporation shares of stock owned by BancShares that were canceled on the merger date.

The primary components of
During 2016, noninterest expense are salarieswas $1.05 billion, compared to $1.04 billion in 2015, an increase of $9.8 million, or 0.9 percent. The year-to-date change was primarily attributable to the following drivers:
Processing expenses for merchant and cardholder services increased $9.9 million, or 12.4 percent, aligned with higher sales volume.
Occupancy expense increased $4.4 million primarily due to bank building repairs related employeeto Hurricane Matthew of approximately $1.2 million and an increase in depreciation expense for technological investments put into production during 2016.
FDIC insurance expense increased $2.6 million due to a higher surcharge imposed during 2016.
Consultant expenses increased $2.0 million primarily due to regulatory and compliance-related services.
Other expense increased primarily as a result of higher operational losses, including losses on debit and credit cards of $4.5 million and costs related to branch closures of $3.2 million.
Employee benefits occupancydecreased $8.8 million primarily the result of lower pension costs. The decline in pension cost was due to an increase in the discount rate used to estimate pension expense in 2016.
Merger-related expense declined $8.8 million due to costs facilities and equipment and merchant processing expenses. associated with the Bancorporation merger in the prior year.
Noninterest expense was $1.04 billion for 2015, aincreased $189.8 million or 22.4 percent increasein 2015 from the $849.1 million inrecorded during 2014. The overall increase was due primarily to the full year impact of the Bancorporation merger. In additionAdditionally, higher pension costs contributed to the impact from the Bancorporation merger, the following other items impacted various noninterest expense categories:
Employee benefits included a $6.1 million increase for higher pension costs. The increase in pension cost was due toemployee benefits as a decline in theresult of applying a lower discount rate used to estimate thecalculate pension liability and pension expenseobligations in 2015.
Processing expenses for merchant and cardholder services, adjusted forexcluding the impact of the Bancorporation merger, were up an approximate 8.0 percent in 2015, corresponding with higher sales volumes.
Equipment expense increased $5.4volume. These increases were offset by a $16.7 million for depreciation primarily related to new technology systems placeddecrease in service during 2015.
Core deposit amortization increased $11.9 million from 2014 primarily due to intangibles recognized in the Bancorporation merger.
Foreclosure-relatedforeclosure-related expenses and collection costs decreased by $16.7 million, or 57.5 percent, in 2015 due to lower losses on real estate sold and lower legal remediation expenses associated with managing fewer OREO properties.expenses.
Noninterest expense in 2014 increased $77.7 million from the $771.4 million recorded during 2013, the net result of the Bancorporation merger during the fourth quarter of 2014, higher salaries and wages, occupancy expense, merger-related costs, and cardholder and merchant processing expenses, offset by lower pension expense and collection costs. During 2014, merger-related expenses included in noninterest expense for the 1st Financial and Bancorporation transactions were $5.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively. Merger-related expenses of $391 thousand in 2013 related to the 1st Financial transaction. Salaries and wages increased $40.3 million in comparison to 2013 primarily as a result of the workforce acquired in the Bancorporation merger and annual merit increases. Employee benefits, however, decreased $10.6 million in comparison to 2013 primarily due to lower pension expense as a result of applying a higher discount rate to calculate our pension obligation in 2014. Additionally, collection expense declined $9.6 million during 2014 due to lower legal remediation expenses associated with managing fewer nonperforming assets.
INCOME TAXES
For 2015,2016, income tax expense was $122.0$125.6 million compared to $65.0 million during 2014 and $101.6$122.0 million during 2013,2015 and $65.0 million during 2014, reflecting effective tax rates of 35.8 percent, 36.7 percent, 31.9 percent and 37.831.9 percent during the respective periods. A reduction in the North Carolina corporate income tax rate applicable to the 2016 tax year contributed to the lower effective tax rate for 2016 compared to 2015. The lower effective
tax rate during 2014 was primarily due to the impact of the $29.1 million gain from the Bancorporation shares of stock owned by BancShares that were canceled on the merger date.
We monitor and evaluate the potential impact of current events on the estimates used to establish income tax expense and income tax liabilities. On a periodic basis, we evaluate our income tax positions based on current tax law, positions taken by various tax auditors within the jurisdictions where BancShares is required to file income tax returns, as well as potential or pending audits or assessments by tax auditors.
INTEREST-EARNING ASSETS
Interest-earning assets include loans and leases, investment securities, and overnight investments, all of which reflect varying interest rates based on the risk level and repricing characteristics of the underlying asset. Riskier investments typically carry a higher interest rate, but expose us to higher levels of market risk.
We have historically focused on maintaining high-asset quality, which results in a loan and lease portfolio subjected to strenuous underwriting and monitoring procedures. We avoid high-risk industry concentrations, but we do maintain a concentration of owner-occupied real estate loans to borrowers in medical and medical-related fields. Our focus on asset quality also influences the composition of our investment securities portfolio.
Interest-earning assets averaged $30.27 billion in 2016, compared to $28.89 billion in 2015, compared to $22.23 billion in 2014.2015. The increase of $6.66$1.38 billion, or 30.04.8 percent, was funded primarily by depositthe result of strong originated loan growth and was also impacted by the Bancorporation merger. Within interest-earning assets, loans experiencedacquired in the most significant increase, primarily due to originated loan growth.NMSB, FCSB and Cordia acquisitions.
Investment securities
Investment securities were $7.01 billion at December 31, 2016, an increase of $145.1 million, or 2.1 percent, when compared to $6.86 billion at December 31, 2015,2015. The increase in 2016 was attributable to continued progress in reinvesting proceeds from sales, maturities and paydowns of securities back into the investment portfolio. This follows a decrease of $310.9 million, or 4.3
percent, when compared to $7.17 billion atin total investment securities from December 31, 2014. The decrease in2014 to December 31, 2015 was attributable to reinvesting a portion of the proceeds from sales, maturities and callspaydowns into overnight investments rather than investment securities. This follows an increasein anticipation of $1.78 billion, or 33.1 percent, in total investment securities from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2014 primarily related to the Bancorporation merger.future favorable market conditions.
Available for sale securities are reported at fair value and unrealized gains and losses are included as a component of other comprehensive income, net of deferred taxes. As of December 31, 2015,2016, investment securities available for sale had a net pre-tax unrealized loss of $24.5$72.7 million, compared to a net pre-tax unrealized gainloss of $8.3$24.5 million as of December 31, 2014.2015. The increase of $48.2 million in unrealized losses during 2016 is primarily attributable to higher market interest rates over the period for mortgage-backed securities. After evaluating the securities with unrealized losses, management concluded that no other than temporary impairment existed as of December 31, 2015.2016.
Sales of investment securities in 20152016 were $1.29$1.83 billion resulting in a net realized gain of $10.8$26.7 million compared to the realized gain of $29.1$10.8 million from sales of $1.29 billion in 2014. The securities gain in 2014 primarily relates to the Bancorporation shares of stock owned by BancShares that were canceled on the merger date.2015.
At December 31, 2015,2016, mortgage-backed securities represented 68.073.9 percent of investment securities available for sale, compared to U.S. Treasury, government agency securities, equity securities, corporate bonds and other, which represented 24.423.5 percent, 7.30.6 percent, 0.11.2 percent, 0.7 percent and 0.20.1 percent of the portfolio, respectively. Overnight investments are with the Federal Reserve Bank and other financial institutions.
During 2015,2016, investment securities cash flows from the sales, maturities and calls of U.S. Treasury and government agency securities were reinvested into mortgage-backed securities, equity securities and other investments in orderalignment with our objective to optimize earnings and overall risk of the investment portfolio. As a result, the carrying value of mortgage-backed securities issued by government sponsored enterprises, equity securities and other investments increased by $1.03 billion, $8.9$507.2 million, $74.6 million and $10.7$41.1 million, respectively, in 2016 while U.S. Treasury securities decreased $954.8$24.6 million, and government agency securities declined $410.2 million. Other investments consist primarily of corporate bonds.$458.3 million during the same period. The effective duration of the investment portfolio was 3.0 years at December 31, 2016, compared to 2.7 years at December 31, 2015, compared to 2.4 years at December 31, 2014.2015.
The primary objective of the investment portfolio is to generate incremental income by deploying excess funds into securities that have minimal liquidity and credit risk and low to moderate interest rate risk. Other objectives include acting as a stable source of liquidity, serving as a tool for asset and liability management and maintaining an interest rate risk profile compatible with BancShares' objectives. Additionally, purchases of equities and corporate bonds in other financial institutions have been made largely under a long-term earnings optimization strategy. Changes in the total balance of our investment securities portfolio result from trends among loans
and leases, deposits and short-term borrowings. Generally, when inflows arising from deposit and treasury services products exceed loan and lease demand, we invest excess funds into the securities portfolio or into overnight investments. Conversely, when loan demand exceeds growth in deposits and short-term borrowings, we allow any overnight investments to decline and use proceeds from maturing securities and prepayments to fund loan demand. Details of investment securities at December 31, 2015, December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, are provided in Table 11.

(1) Mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been included in maturity groupings based on the contractual maturity. The expected life of mortgage-backed securities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to prepay the underlying mortgage loans.

Loans and leases
Loans and leases were $20.24$21.74 billion at December 31, 2015,2016, a net increase of $1.47$1.50 billion, or 7.87.4 percent, when compared tosince December 31, 2014. Growth2015. This increase was primarily driven by $1.71$1.41 billion of net organic growth in the non-PCI portfolio.portfolio and the addition of $225.0 million to the non-PCI portfolio from the Cordia acquisition at December 31, 2016. The PCI portfolio declined during the yearover this period by $236.0$141.3 million, reflectingas a result of continued loan runoffrun-off of $373.6$206.6 million offset by net loans acquired from CCBT NMSB and FCSB,
which totaled $137.6were $29.5 million and $35.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2015.2016. Loans and leases increased by $5.64$1.47 billion, or 42.97.8 percent, from December 31, 20132014 to December 31, 20142015 primarily due to the Bancorporation merger contribution of $4.49 billion and originated portfolionet organic non-PCI loan growth of $1.30 billion.$1.71 billion, offset by a net decline in the PCI portfolio of $236.0 million.
BancShares reports PCI and non-PCI loan portfolios separately and each portfolio is further divided into commercial and non-commercial. Additionally, loans are assigned to loan classes, which further disaggregate loans based upon common risk characteristics, such as commercial real estate, commercial & industrial or residential mortgage. Table 1315 provides the composition of PCI and non-PCI loans and leases for the past five years.
PCI Loans
The PCI portfolio includes loans acquired in a transfer, including business combinations, where there is evidence of credit
deterioration since origination and it is probable at the date of acquisition that we will not collect all contractually required
principal and interest payments. All nonrevolving loans are evaluated at acquisition and where a discount is required at least in part due to credit quality, the loans are accounted for under the guidance in ASC Topic 310-30. PCI loans and leases are valued at fair value at the date of acquisition.
PCI loans at December 31, 20152016 were $950.5$809.2 million, representing 4.73.7 percent of total loans and leases, a decrease of $236.0$141.3 million from $1.19 billion$950.5 million at December 31, 2014 reflecting2015 as a result of continued loan portfolio runoff.run-off and charge-offs of $206.6 million offset by net loans acquired from NMSB and FCSB, which were $29.5 million and $35.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016.
PCI commercial loans were $593.6$500.0 million at December 31, 2016, a decrease of $93.6 million, or 15.8 percent, since December 31, 2015, following a decrease of $132.5 million, or 18.2 percent, since December 31, 2014, following a decrease of $55.2 million, or 7.1 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013. The current year reduction in commercial loans reflects runoff in the PCI portfolio offset by the contribution from the CCBT acquisition.
2014. At December 31, 2015,2016, PCI noncommercial loans were $356.9$309.2 million, a decrease of $47.7 million, or 13.4 percent, since December 31, 2015, following a decrease of $103.5 million, or 22.5 percent, since December 31, 2014. This follows an increase of $212.3 million, or 85.5 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013. The current year decrease results from runoff in the PCI portfolio, offset by the contribution from the CCBT acquisition. The growth in the prior year reflects the Bancorporation contribution and acquired 1st Financial commercial loans, offset by runoff.2014.
Non-PCI Loans and Leases
The non-PCI portfolio includes loans that management has the intent and ability to hold and is reported at the principal balance
outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs. Non-PCI loans include originated loans, purchased non-impaired loans, purchased leases and certain purchased revolving credit. For purchased non-impaired loans to be included as non-PCI, it must be determined that the loans do not have a discount at least in part due to credit quality at the time of acquisition. Purchased non-impaired loans are initially recorded at their fair value at the date of acquisition.
Non-PCI loans at December 31, 20152016 were $19.29$20.93 billion, an increase of $1.71$1.64 billion from $17.58$19.29 billion at December 31, 2014.2015. Non-PCI loans represented 95.396.3 percent and 93.795.3 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 20152016 and December 31, 2014,2015, respectively.
The non-PCI commercial loan portfolio is composed of Commercial Mortgage, Commercial and Industrial, Construction and Land Development, Lease Financing, Other Commercial Real Estate and Other Commercial loans. Non-PCI commercial loans were $12.63$13.76 billion at December 31, 2016, an increase of $1.13 billion, or 8.9 percent, compared to December 31, 2015, following an increase of $1.42 billion, or 12.7 percent, compared to December 31, 2014 resulting from continued loan growth. This follows an increase of $2.71 billion, or 31.8 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014. The increase from both periods was primarily due to the Bancorporation merger andstrong originated loan growth. The Cordia acquisition also positively contributed to the non-PCI commercial loan portfolio during 2016.
Non-PCI commercial mortgage loans were $8.27$9.03 billion at December 31, 2015.2016. The December 31, 20152016 balance increased $751.7 million, or 9.1 percent, since December 31, 2015, following an increase of $721.6 million, or 9.6 percent, since December 31, 2014, following an increase of $1.19 billion, or 18.7 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013.2014. We attribute the growth in 2015both years to improving confidence among small business customers and our revenue generating initiatives.continued focus on this segment.
Non-PCI commercial and industrial loans were $2.37$2.57 billion at December 31, 2016, an increase of $198.5 million, or 8.4 percent, since December 31, 2015, following an increase of $380.0 million, or 19.1 percent, since December 31, 2014, following an increase of $907.8 million, or 84.0 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013.2014. We observed improved demand for commercial and industrial lending during 2015, which we attribute the growth from both periods to our continued focus on small business customers, particularly among medical, dental or other professional customers.
The non-PCI noncommercial loan portfolio is composed of Residential Mortgage, Revolving Mortgage, Consumer and Construction and Land Development loans. Non-PCI noncommercial loans were $6.66$7.17 billion at December 31, 2016, an increase
of $509.0 million, or 7.6 percent, compared to December 31, 2015, following an increase of $281.7 million, or 4.4 percent compared to December 31, 2014. This follows an increase of $2.77 billion, or 76.9 percent between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014 primarily due to the Bancorporation merger and originated loan growth.
At December 31, 2015,2016, residential mortgage loans were $2.70$2.89 billion, an increase of $193.1 million or 7.2 percent, since December 31, 2015, following an increase of $202.9 million, or 8.1 percent, since December 31, 2014, following an increase of $1.51 billion, or 153.8 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013.2014. The 2015 increase from both periods reflects originated loan growth. While thea majority of residential mortgage loans originated in 2015 were sold to investors, other loans, including affordable housing loans, medical mortgage loans and certain construction loans, were originated based on our intent to retain them in the loan portfolio.
At December 31, 2015,2016, revolving mortgage loans were $2.52$2.60 billion, decreasingan increase of $78.2 million, or 3.1 percent, since December 31, 2015, following a decrease of $38.7 million, or 1.5 percent, since December 31, 2014, following an increase of $448.5 million, or 21.2 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013.2014. The increase in 2016 was primarily the result of originated loan growth. The decrease in 2015 was primarily due to competitive loan pricing. The increase in 2014 was primarily due to the Bancorporation merger.
At December 31, 2015,2016, consumer loans were $1.22$1.45 billion, an increase of $226.3 million, or 18.6 percent, compared to December 31, 2015, following an increase of $102.4 million, or 9.2 percent, compared to December 31, 2014, following an increase of $731.0 million, or 189.2 percent, between December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013. The 2015 growth2014. Growth in both periods primarily reflects increases in indirect auto lending and our credit card portfolio. The increase in 20142016 was primarily duealso attributable to loans acquired in the Bancorporation merger.Cordia acquisition.
Management believes 20152016 organic loan growth resulted from improved economic conditions and revenueour initiatives to broaden and diversify the loan portfolio through loan products with high growth initiatives. Revenue growth initiatives contributed approximately $825.0 million to loan growth in 2015.potential. Management has maintained sound underwriting standards across all loan products while achieving this growth. Continued originatedOriginated loan growth in 20162017 will be dependent on overall economic conditions and will continue to be impacted by intense competition for loans and other external factors. Loan growth projections are subject to change due to further economic deterioration or improvement and other external factors.

(1) Non-PCI loans include originated and purchased non-impaired loans, including non-accrual and TDR loans.
Allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL)
The ALLL was $206.2$218.8 million at December 31, 2016, representing an increase of $12.6 million since December 31, 2015, representingfollowing an increase of $1.8 million and a decrease of $27.2 million sincebetween December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013, respectively.2014. The ALLL as a percentage of total loans was 1.01 percent at December 31, 2016, compared to 1.02 percent and 1.09 percent at December 31, 2015 compared to 1.09 percent and 1.78 percent at December 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively.
The decline in the ALLL ratio was due to credit quality improvements in the non-PCI portfolio and the continued runoff in the PCI loan portfolio. Additionally, the decline between 2014 and 2013from both periods was primarily due to lower reserves on PCI loans due to run-off in the Bancorporation merger where the acquired loan portfolio was recorded at fair market value at acquisition date, thus replacing the historical allowance with a fair value discount.portfolio.
AtBancShares continued to sustain improvement in credit quality indicators which have reduced the ALLL ratio since December 31, 2015 the ALLL allocated to non-PCI loans was $189.9 million, or 0.98 percent of non-PCI loans and leases, compared to $182.8 million, or 1.04 percent, at December 31, 2014, and $179.9 million, or 1.49 percent, at December 31, 2013.
The increase in reserves was primarily attributable to originated loan growth offset by lower reserves needed due to credit quality improvements. Credit quality improvements are the primary driver of the decline in the ALLL ratio resulting in lower reserve rates applied to loans in the ALLL calculation.
Several credit quality indicators for the non-PCI loan portfolio improved during 2015 which impacted the ALLL calculation.2014. In the commercial non-PCI loan portfolio, credit quality improvements included sustained low net charge-off ratios, lower loan defaults and migration of loans with higher credit risk ratings continued to migrate to lower credit risk ratings. The noncommercial non-PCI loan portfolio also experiencedsustained low net charge-off trends as well as improvedand delinquency trends. Additionally, impaired non-PCI loan reserves of $8.5 million were released in 2015 due to improved cash flow, higher collateral values for impaired loans and refinements made to discounted cash flow rate assumptions based on actual historical experience. In accordance with our allowance methodology, certain loan loss factors related to the quantitative component of the ALLL and reserve factors related to the qualitative component of the ALLL were updated in 2016. This methodology update resulted in no material net impact to the ALLL.
At December 31, 2016, the ALLL allocated to non-PCI loans was $205.0 million, or 0.98 percent of non-PCI loans and leases, compared to $189.9 million, or 0.98 percent, at December 31, 2015, resultingand $182.8 million, or 1.04 percent, at December 31, 2014.
The increase in reserves was primarily attributable to originated loan growth and an increase in provision expense, due to higher reserves on impaired loans and, to a release of approximately $4.8 million of reserves.lesser extent, higher net charge-offs.
The ALLL allocated to originated non-PCI loans and leases of $204.4 million at December 31, 2016 was 1.141.09 percent of originated non-PCI loans and leases, compared to 1.14 percent and 1.33 percent at December 31, 2015 compared to 1.33 percent and 1.49 percent at December 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively. The decline in the allowance ratio was related to credit improvement in the originated non-PCI loan portfoliogrowth and the continued low net charge-offsustained favorable credit quality trends discussed above. Originated non-PCI loans were $18.82 billion, $16.60 billion, $13.72 billion, and $12.10$13.72 billion at December 31, 2015,2016, December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013,2014, respectively, and do not include purchased revolving, purchased non-PCI loans or PCI loans.
The ALLL of $16.3$13.8 million for PCI loans at December 31, 20152016 results from post-acquisition deterioration in credit quality for PCI loans. The ALLL for PCI loans was $16.3 million at December 31, 2015, and $21.6 million at December 31, 2014, and $53.5 million at December 31, 2013.2014. The ALLL for PCI loans has decreased from both periods primarily due to reversals of previously recorded credit- and timing-related impairment and charge-offs, as well as continued portfolio runoff. The continued decline in 2015 was partially offset by the $3.9 million reclassification between accretable yield and ALLL as previously discussed.run-off.
BancShares recorded a $20.7$32.9 million net provision expense for loan and lease losses during 2015,2016, compared to net provision expense of $20.7 million for 2015 and $640 thousand for 2014 and a net provision credit of $32.3 million for 2013.2014. The increase in provision expense in 2016 was primarily due primarily to originated non-PCI loan growth and lower impairment reversalsstabilized credit quality trends in the PCI loan portfolio.non-PCI portfolio and changes in reserves on impaired non-PCI loans and leases.
Provision expense on non-PCI loans and leases was $34.9 million during 2016, compared to $22.9 million during 2015, compared toand $15.3 million in 2015 and $19.3 million in 2014, and 2013, respectively. The increase in provision expense during the current yearin 2016 primarily resulted from originated loan growthhigher reserves on impaired loans and, to a lesser extent, higher net charge-offs. Net charge-offs on non-PCI loans and leases were $19.7 million, $15.9 million, and $12.3 million for 2016, 2015, and $25.8 million for 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. On an annualized basis, net charge-offs of non-PCI loans and leases represented 0.090.10 percent of average non-PCI loans and leases during 2015,2016, compared to 0.09 percent during 2014both 2015 and 0.22 percent during 2013.2014.
The PCI loan portfolio net provision credit was $2.3$1.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2015,2016, compared to a net provision creditcredits of $14.6$2.3 million and $51.5$14.6 million during the same periods of 20142015 and 2013,2014, respectively. The lower net provision credit was attributable to the continued decline in this portfolio. The decline in provision during 2015 was offset by the $3.9 million reclassification between accretable yield and the ALLL as previously discussed. Net charge-offs on PCI loans were $614 thousand during 2016, compared to $3.0 million during 2015, compared toand $17.3 million and $34.9 million for the same periods of 20142015 and 2013,2014, respectively. Net charge-offs of PCI loans represented 0.07 percent, 0.27 percent, 1.44 percent, and 2.491.44 percent of average PCI loans for 2016, 2015, 2014, and 2013,2014, respectively. PCI loan net charge-offs declined from 20142015 in mostall loan classes, with significantthe largest reductions noted in commercial mortgage, commercial and industrial and construction and land developmentrevolving mortgage loans.
Management considers the ALLL adequate to absorb estimated probable losses that relate to loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2015,2016, although future additions may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the ALLL. Such agencies may require adjustments to the ALLL based on information available to them at the time of their examination. See "Critical Accounting Policies" and Note A in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of our accounting policies for the ALLL.
Table 1416 provides details of the ALLL and provision components by loan class for the past five years.Table 17 details the allocation of the ALLL among the various loan types.

(1) During 2013, BancShares modified the ALLL model and the methodology for estimating losses on unfunded commitments. As a result of these modifications, $7.4 million of the balance previously reported as a reserve of unfunded commitments was reclassified to the ALLL.
The provision expense for commercial construction and land development non-PCI loans was $4.8$12.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015,2016, compared to provision expense of $1.7$4.8 million for the same period of 2014.2015. The increase in provision expense was primarily due to higherthe result of updating loan growthloss factors for this portfolio given an increase in 2015 compared to the prior year.loss experience in accordance with our ALLL methodology.
Commercial mortgage non-PCI loans had a net provision credit of $15.8$21.9 million in 2015,2016, compared to a net provision credit of $16.7$15.8 million in 2014.2015. The net provision credit in both years was primarily the result of improvements in credit risk ratings and lower loan defaults.
The provision expense for other commercial real estate non-PCI loans was $1.6 million in 2015, compared to a net provision credit of $401 thousand in 2014. The increase in provision expense was due to higher loan growth and loan defaults in the current year.
The provision expense for commercial and industrial non-PCI loans was $14.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $17.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $10.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.2015.

The provision expense for lease financingother non-PCI loans was $1.6$0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 20152016, compared to a net provision credit of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase in provision expense was due to higher loan growth and net charge-offs compared to the prior year. The prior year net provision credit resulted from improved credit quality trends, similar to the improvements previously discussed.
The other non-PCI loan class had a net provision credit of $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to provision expense of $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.2015. The net provision credit in 2015 was primarily the result of the reversal of previously identified impairment on individually impaired loans.
Provision expense for residential mortgage non-PCI loans was $9.4 million in 2016, compared to $4.2 million in 2015, compared to $1.2 million in 2014.2015. The increase in provision expense was due to higher loan growthan increase in the current year.
Revolving mortgage non-PCI loans had a net provision credit of $927 thousand in 2015, compared to net provision expense of $6.3 million in 2014. Lower reserves onfor individually impaired loans and credit quality improvements as previously discussed were the primary driversresult of the declineupdating loan loss factors primarily related to delinquency trends for loans greater than 90 days past due for this portfolio in accordance with our ALLL methodology.
The provision expense for consumer non-PCI loans was $18.6 million in 2016, compared to $11.0 million in 2015. The increase in provision expense.expense was the result of updating loan loss factors for this portfolio primarily related to delinquency trends for loans greater than 60 days past due in accordance with our ALLL methodology.

The ALLL as a percentage of total loans at December 31, 20152016 was 1.021.01 percent, compared to 1.091.02 percent and 1.781.09 percent for December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013,2014, respectively. The adjusted ALLL (non-GAAP), which includes the ALLL as well as remaining net acquisition fair value adjustments for acquired loans, declined from 2.29 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 2014 to 1.90 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 2015. The reduction in the adjusted ALLL resulted primarily from credit quality improvements and continued accretion of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments.
The following non-GAAP reconciliation in Table 1618 provides a calculation of the adjusted ALLL and the related adjusted ALLL as a percentage of total loans and leases for the periods presented. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to monitor performance and believes this measure provides meaningful information as the remaining unamortized discounts provide coverage for losses similar to the ALLL. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of BancShares' results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.

The adjusted ALLL (non-GAAP), which includes the ALLL as well as remaining net acquisition fair value adjustments for acquired loans, declined from 1.90 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 2015 to 1.70 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 2016. The reduction in the adjusted ALLL resulted primarily from stabilized credit quality trends and continued accretion of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments.
Table 1719 details the allocation of the ALLL among the various loan types. See Note E in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures regarding the ALLL.

(1) During 2013, in connection with modifications to the ALLL model, the balance previously identified as nonspecific was allocated to various loan classes.
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans and leases and OREO resulting from both PCI and non-PCI loans. The accrual of interest on non-PCI loans and leases is discontinued when we deem that collection of additional principal or interest is doubtful. Non-PCI loans and leases are generally removed from nonaccrual status when they become current as to both principal and interest and concern no longer exists as to the collectability of principal and interest. Accretion of income for PCI loans is discontinued when we are unable to estimate the amount or timing of cash flows. This designation may be made at acquisition date or subsequent to acquisition date, including at maturity when no formal repayment plan has been established. PCI loans may begin or resume accretion of income if information becomes available that allows us to estimate the amount and timing of future cash flows.
Potential problem loans include loans on nonaccrual status or past due as disclosed in Table 18 and troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) as disclosed in Table 19. In addition, impaired, accruing non-PCI loans less than 90 days past due that have not been restructured as a TDR are closely monitored by management and were $15.5 million atDecember 31, 2015
Table 18 provides details on nonperforming assets and other risk elements.

Of the $147.0 million increase in nonaccrual non-PCI loans and leases due to an increase in commercial mortgage and residential mortgage loans being placed on nonaccrual status. Additionally, approximately $8.4 million of residential and revolving mortgage loans were moved to nonaccrual status from past due resulting from system enhancements in the first quarter of 2015. The increase in nonperforming assets betweenat December 31, 20132016, $565 thousand related to loans and OREO covered by shared-loss agreements, compared to $9.8 million at December 31, 2014 primarily resulted from OREO acquired in2015 and $50.0 million at December 31, 2014.

OREO includes foreclosed property and branch facilities that we have closed, but not sold. Noncovered OREO was $58.7 million at December 31, 2015, compared to $70.5 million at December 31, 2014, and $36.9 million at December 31, 2013. The $11.7 million decrease from December 31, 2014 was primarily due to sales outpacing new additions, while the $33.6 million increase between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 primarily resulted from OREO acquired in the Bancorporation merger.
Once acquired, net book values of OREO are reviewed at least annually to evaluate if write-downs are required. Real estate appraisals are reviewed by the appraisal review department to ensure the quality of the appraised value in the report. The level of review is dependent on the value and type of the collateral, with higher value and more complex properties receiving a more detailed review. Changes to the value of the assets between scheduled valuation dates are monitored through continued communication with brokers and monthly reviews by the asset manager assigned to each asset. The asset manager uses the information gathered from brokers and other market sources to identify any significant changes in the market or the subject property as they occur. Valuations are then adjusted or new
appraisals are ordered to ensure the reported values reflect the most current information. Decisions regarding write-downs are based on factors that include appraisals, previous offers received on the property, market conditions and the number of days the property has been on the market.
TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCTURINGS
In an effort to assist customers experiencing financial difficulty, we have selectively agreed to modify existing loan terms to provide relief to customers who are experiencing liquidity challenges or other circumstances that could affect their ability to meet debt obligations. Typical modifications include short-term deferral of interest or modification of payment terms. The majority of restructured loans are to customers that are currently performing under existing terms but may be unable to do so in the near future without a modification. Nonperforming TDRs are not accruing interest and are included as nonperforming assets within nonaccrual loans and leases in Table 1820. Nonperforming assets listed in Table 1820 do not include performing TDRs, which are accruing interest based on the restructured terms. See Note A in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of our accounting policies for TDRs.
Total PCI and non-PCI loans classified as TDRs as of December 31, 20152016 were $150.9 million, compared to $144.8 million compared toat December 31, 2015 and $151.5 million at December 31, 2014 and $206.82014. At December 31, 2016, accruing TDRs were $127.5 million, an increase of $14.2 million from $113.3 million at December 31, 2013.2015 primarily due to an increase in commercial and residential mortgage loan modifications. At December 31, 2015, accruing2016, nonaccruing TDRs were $113.3$23.4 million, a decrease of $8.2 million from $31.5 million at December 31, 2015 primarily related to payoffs in the commercial loan portfolio.
Between December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, accruing TDRs decreased $22.7 million and $62.7 million from December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. At December 31, 2015, nonaccruing TDRs were $31.5 million, reflecting respective increases ofincreased $16.0 million and $746 thousand from December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.million. The increase in nonaccruing TDRs from the prior year was primarily related to a few significant commercial loan relationships restructured and placed on nonaccrual status in the current year, as well as an increase in residential and revolving mortgage TDRs on nonaccrual status.

Due to our focus on maintaining a strong liquidity position, core deposit retention remains a key business objective. We believe that traditional bank deposit products remain an attractive option for many customers, but as economic conditions improve, we recognize that our liquidity position could be adversely affected as bank deposits are withdrawn and invested elsewhere. Our ability to fund future loan growth is significantly dependent on our success at retaining existing deposits and generating new deposits at a reasonable cost.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY
We are committed to effectively managing our capital to protect our depositors, creditors and shareholders. We continually monitor the capital levels and ratios for BancShares and FCB to ensure they exceed the minimum requirements imposed by regulatory authorities and to ensure they are appropriate, given growth projections, risk profile and potential changes in the regulatory environment. Failure to meet certain capital requirements may result in actions by regulatory agencies that could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In accordance with GAAP, the unrealized gains and losses on certain assets and liabilities, net of deferred taxes, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) within shareholders' equity. These amounts are excluded from shareholders' equity in the calculation of our capital ratios under current regulatory guidelines. In the aggregate, these items represented a net
decrease in shareholders' equity of $135.2 million at December 31, 2016, compared to a net reduction of $64.4 million at December 31, 2015, compared to a net reduction of $53.0 million at December 31, 2014.2015. The $11.5$70.8 million reduction in AOCI from December 31, 20142015 primarily reflects a decreasean increase in unrealized gainslosses on investment securities available for sale netas a result of higher market interest rates and the change in the funded status of our defined benefit pension plans.plans due to the required annual valuation of the benefit obligation.
During the fourth quarter of 2015,2016, our boardBoard approved a stock repurchase plan that provides for the purchase of up to 100,000200,000 shares of Class A common stock beginning onstock. The shares may be purchased from time to time from November 1, 2015 and continuing2016 through October 31, 2017. That authority replaced a similar plan in effect during the twelve months preceding November 1, 2016. The Board's action approving share purchases does not obligate BancShares to acquire any particular amount of shares and purchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Any shares of stock that are purchased will be canceled. As of December 31, 2015,2016, no purchases had occurred pursuant to thateither authorization.
During the third quarter of 2014, our shareholders approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock from 11,000,000 to 16,000,000. In connection with the Bancorporation merger, 167,600 and 45,900 shares of Class A and Class B common stock that were previously held by Bancorporation were retired.
Bank regulatory agencies have approved regulatory capital guidelines (Basel III) aimed at strengthening existing capital requirements for banking organizations. Under Basel III, minimum requirements increase for both the quantity and quality of capital held by BancShares. Basel III includes a new common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets minimum ratio of 4.50 percent, raises the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.00 percent to 6.00 percent, requires a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.00 percent, and requires a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.00 percent. A new capital conservation buffer, comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital, was also established above the regulatory minimum capital requirements. This capital conservation buffer will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625 percent of risk-weighted assets and increase each subsequent year by an additional 0.625 percent until reaching its final level of 2.50 percent on January 1, 2019. Strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments were also implemented under Basel III. Basel III also revised the definition and calculation of Tier 1 capital, total capital, and risk-weighted assets.
The phase-in period for Basel III became effective for BancShares on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with all Basel III requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule, to be fully phased-in by January 1, 2019. As of December 31, 2015,2016, BancShares continues to exceed minimum capital standards and remains well-capitalized under the new rules.Basel III capital requirements. Table 2325 provides information on capital adequacy for BancShares as of December 31, 2016, 2015 2014 and 2013.2014.

As aligned with expectations and incorporated in our capital planning process, BancShares remained well capitalizedwell-capitalized under Basel III capital requirements with a leverage capital ratio of 8.969.05 percent, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 12.6512.42 percent, common equity Tier 1 ratio of 12.5112.42 percent and total risk-based capital ratio of 14.0313.85 percent under Basel III guidelines at December 31, 2015.2016. BancShares had a capital conservation buffer above minimum risk-based capital requirements of 5.85 percent at December 31, 2016. The buffer exceeded the 0.625 percent requirement and, therefore, results in no limit on distributions.
BancShares had $32.1 million ofno trust preferred capital securities included in Tier 1 capital at December 31, 2015,2016, compared to $128.5$32.1 million and $93.5$128.5 million at December 31, 20142015 and December 31, 2013,2014, respectively. The decrease during 2015from both periods was due to the implementation of Basel III.

At December 31, 2015,2016, Tier 2 capital of BancShares included $6.0$3.0 million of qualifying subordinated debt acquired in the Bancorporation merger with a scheduled maturity date of June 1, 2018 and $96.4$121.5 million of trust preferred capital securities that were excluded from Tier 1 capital as a result of Basel III implementation. At December 31, 2014,2015, Tier 2 capital of BancShares included $9.0$6.0 million of qualifying subordinated debt acquired in the Bancorporation merger with a scheduled maturity date of June 1, 2018. Under current regulatory guidelines, when subordinated debt is within five years of its scheduled maturity date, issuers must discount the amount included in Tier 2 capital by 20 percent for each year until the debt matures.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Risk is inherent in any business and, as is the case with other management functions, senior management has primary responsibility for day-to-day management of the risks we face. The Board of Directors strivestrives to ensure that risk management is part of the business culture and that policies and procedures for assessing, monitoring, and limiting risk are part of the daily decision-making process. The Board of Director’sDirectors’ role in risk oversight is an integral part of our overall enterprise risk management framework. The Board of Directors administers its risk oversight function primarily through committees which may be established as separate or joint committees of the board, including a jointBoard Risk Committee that oversees enterprise-wide risk management.Committee.
The Board Risk Committee structure is designed to allow for information flow and escalation of risk related issues. Among the duties and responsibilities as may be assigned from time to time by the Board of Directors, the Board Risk Committee is directed to monitor and advise the board regarding risk exposures, including credit, market, liquidity, operational, compliance, legal, strategic and reputational risks; review, approve and monitor adherence to risk appetite and supporting risk tolerance levels; evaluate, monitor and oversee the adequacy and effectiveness of the risk management framework; and review reports of examination by and communications from regulatory agencies, and the results of internal and third party testing, analyses and reviews, related to risks, risk management, and any other matters within the scope of the Board Risk Committee’s oversight responsibilities, and monitor and review management’s response to any noted issues. In addition, the Board Risk Committee may coordinate with the Audit Committee for the review of financial statements and related risks and other areas of joint responsibility.
The Dodd-Frank Act mandated that stress tests be developed and performed to ensure that financial institutions have sufficient capital to absorb losses and support operations during multiple economic and bank scenarios. Bank holding companies with total consolidated assets between $10 billion and $50 billion, including BancShares, will undergo annual company-run stress tests. As directed by the Federal Reserve, summaries of BancShares’ results in the severely adverse stress tests are available to the public. In combination with other risk management and monitoring practices, the results of stress testing activities will be considered as part of our risk management program.
Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk of not collecting payments pursuant to the contractual terms of loans, leases and certain investment securities. Loans and leases, other than acquired loans, wereare underwritten in accordance with our credit policies and procedures and are subject to periodic ongoing reviews. Acquired loans, regardless of whether PCI or non-PCI, wereare recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date and are subject to periodic reviews to identify any further credit deterioration. Our independent credit review function conducts risk reviews and analyses of both acquired and originated loans to ensure compliance with credit policies and to monitor asset quality trends. The risk reviews include portfolio analysis by geographic location, industry, collateral type and product. We strive to identify potential problem loans as early as possible, to record charge-offs or write-downs as appropriate and to maintain an adequate ALLL that accounts for losses that are inherent in the loan and lease portfolio.
We maintain a well-diversified loan and lease portfolio and seek to minimize the risks associated with large concentrations within specific geographic areas, collateral types or industries. Despite our focus on diversification, several characteristics of our loan portfolio subject us to significant risk, such as our concentrations of real estate secured loans, revolving mortgage loans and medical- and dental-related loans.
We have historically carried a significant concentration of real estate secured loans. Within our loan portfolio, we mitigate that exposure through our underwriting policies that primarily rely on borrower cash flow rather than underlying collateral values. When we do rely on underlying real property values, we favor financing secured by owner-occupied real property and, as a result, a large percentage of our real estate secured loans are owner occupied. At December 31, 2015,2016, loans secured by real estate were $16.54 billion, or 76.1 percent, of total loans and leases compared to $15.59 billion, or 77.0 percent, of total loans and leases compared toat December 31, 2015, and $14.70 billion, or 78.3 percent, of total loans and leases at December 31, 2014, and $11.09 billion, or 84.4 percent, at December 31, 2013.2014.

Among real estate secured loans, our revolving mortgage loans (also known as Home Equity Lines of Credit or HELOCs) present a heightened risk due to long commitment periods during which the financial position of individual borrowers or collateral values may deteriorate significantly. In addition, a large percentage of our revolving mortgage loans are secured by junior liens. Substantial declines in collateral values could cause junior lien positions to become effectively unsecured. Revolving mortgage loans secured by real estate amounted to $2.58were $2.64 billion, or 12.712.1 percent, of total loans at December 31, 2015,2016, compared to $2.58 billion, or 12.7 percent, at December 31, 2015, and $2.64 billion, or 14.0 percent, at December 31, 2014, and $2.14 billion, or 16.3 percent, at December 31, 2013.2014.
Except for loans acquired through mergers and acquisitions, we have not purchased revolving mortgages in the secondary market nor have we originated these loans to customers outside of our market areas. All originated revolving mortgage loans were underwritten by us based on our standard lending criteria. The revolving mortgage loan portfolio consists largely of variable rate lines of credit which allow customer draws during the entire contractual period of the line of credit, typically 15 years. Approximately 80.380.5 percent of the revolving mortgage portfolio relates to properties in North Carolina and South Carolina. Approximately 35.7 percent of the loan balances outstanding are secured by senior collateral positions while the remaining 64.3 percent are secured by junior liens.
We actively monitor the portion of our HELOC loans that are in the interest-only period and when they will mature. Approximately 82.483.7 percent of outstanding balances at December 31, 2015,2016, require interest-only payments, while the remaining require monthly payments equal to the greater of 1.5 percent of the outstanding balance or $100. When HELOC loans switch from interest-only to fully amortizing, including principal and interest, some borrowers may not be able to afford the higher monthly payments. As of December 31, 2015,2016, approximately 5 percent of the HELOC portfolio is due to mature by the end of 20172018 with remaining loan maturities spread similarly over future years thereafter. In the normal course of business, the bank will work with each borrower as they approach the revolving period maturity date to discuss options for refinance or repayment.
Loans and leases to borrowers in medical, dental or related fields were $4.28$4.66 billion as of December 31, 2015,2016, which represents 21.5 percent of total loans and leases, compared to $4.28 billion or 21.2 percent of total loans and leases compared toat December 31, 2015, and $4.16 billion or 22.2 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 2014, and $3.34 billion or 25.4 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 2013.2014. The credit risk of this industry concentration is mitigated through our underwriting policies that emphasize reliance on adequate borrower cash flow rather than underlying collateral value and our preference for financing secured by owner-occupied real property. Except for this single concentration, no other industry represented more than 10 percent of total loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2015.2016.
Interest rate risk management
Interest rate risk (IRR) results principally from assets and liabilities maturing or repricing at different points in time, from assets and liabilities repricing at the same point in time but in different amounts, and from short-term and long-term interest rates changing in different magnitudes.
We assess our short-term IRR by forecasting net interest income over 24 months under various interest rate scenarios and comparing those results to forecast net interest income assuming stable rates. Rate shock scenarios represent an instantaneous and parallel shift in rates, up or down, from a base yield curve. Due to the current low level of interest rates and competitive pressures that constrain our ability to further reduce deposit interest rates, it is unlikely that the rates on most interest-bearing
liabilities can decline materially from current levels. Our shock projections incorporate assumptions of likely customer migration from low rate deposit instruments to intermediate term fixed rate instruments, such as certificates of deposit, as rates rise. Various other IRR
scenarios are modeled to supplement shock scenarios. This may include interest rate ramps, changes in the shape of the yield curve and changes in the relationships of FCB rates to market rates. Table 2527 provides the impact on net interest income over 24 months resulting from various instantaneous interest rate shock scenarios as of December 31, 20152016 and 2014.2015.

The improvement in net interest income sensitivity metrics at December 31, 2016 compared to December 31, 2015 was primarily due a favorable change in the deposit mix with significant growth in demand deposit and checking accounts combined with continued run-off in certificates of deposit.
Long-term interest rate risk exposure is measured using the economic value of equity (EVE) sensitivity analysis to study the impact of long-term cash flows on earnings and capital. EVE represents the difference between the sum of the present value of all asset cash flows and the sum of the present value of the liability cash flows. EVE sensitivity analysis involves discounting cash flows of balance sheet items under different interest rate scenarios. Cash flows will vary by interest rate scenario, resulting in variations in EVE. The base-case measurement and its sensitivity to shifts in the yield curve allow management to measure longer-term repricing and option risk in the balance sheet. Table 2628 presents the EVE profile as of December 31, 20152016 and 2014.2015.

The deterioration in the economic value of equity metrics at December 31, 2016 compared to December 31, 2015 was primarily due a change in the asset mix as a portion of floating rate cash was reinvested into fixed rate securities and a small reduction in the benefit from deposits due to slightly higher treasury and swap rates.
We do not typically utilize interest rate swaps, floors, collars or other derivative financial instruments to attempt to hedge our overall balance sheet rate sensitivity and interest rate risk. However, we have entered into an interest rate swap to synthetically convert the variable rate on $93.5 million of junior subordinated debentures to a fixed rate of 5.50 percent through June 2016. The interest rate swap qualifies as a hedge under GAAP. See Note R in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, "Derivatives," for additional discussion of this interest rate swap.

Liquidity risk management
Liquidity risk is the risk that an institution is unable to generate or obtain sufficient cash or its equivalents on a cost-effective basis to meet commitments as they fall due. The most common sources of liquidity risk arise from mismatches in the timing and value of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet cash inflows and outflows. In general, on-balance sheet mismatches generate liquidity risk when the effective maturity of assets exceeds the effective maturity of liabilities. A commonly cited example of a balance sheet liquidity mismatch is when long-term loans (assets) are funded with short-term deposits (liabilities). Other forms of liquidity risk include market constraints on the ability to convert assets into cash at expected levels, an inability to access funding sources at sufficient levels at a reasonable cost, and changes in economic conditions or exposure to credit, market, operational, legal and reputation risks that can affect an institution’s liquidity risk profile.
We utilize various limit-based measures to monitor, measure and control liquidity risk across three different types of liquidity:
Tactical liquidity measures the risk of a negative cash flow position whereby cash outflows exceed cash inflows over a short-term horizon out to nine weeks;
Structural liquidity measures the amount by which illiquid assets are supported by long-term funding; and
Contingent liquidity utilizes cash flow stress testing across three crisis scenarios to determine the adequacy of our liquidity.
We aim to maintain a diverse mix of liquidity sources to support the liquidity management function, while aiming to avoid funding concentrations by diversifying our external funding with respect to maturities, counterparties and nature. Our primary sources of liquidity are our retail deposit book due to the generally stable balances and low cost it offers, cash in excess of our reserve requirement at the Federal Reserve Bank, and various other correspondingcorrespondent bank accounts and unencumbered securities, all of which were $3.88 billion at December 31, 2016 compared to $3.96 billion at December 31, 2015 compared to $4.29 billion at December 31, 2014.2015. Another source of available funds is advances from the FHLB of Atlanta. Outstanding FHLB advances were $520.3$670.2 million as of December 31, 2015,2016, and we had sufficient collateral pledged to secure $5.57$4.84 billion of additional borrowings. We also maintain Federal Funds lines and other borrowing facilities which had $740.0$715.0 million of available capacity at December 31, 2015.2016.
We entered into forward-starting advances with the FHLB of Atlanta in June 2016 to receive $200.0 million of fixed rate long-term funding. There are two advances of $100.0 million each scheduled to fund in June 2018 with maturity dates of June 2026 and 2028.

The decline was primarily due to improved credit qualityhigher provision expense in the loan portfolio, offset bycurrent quarter resulted from higher net charge-offs on non-PCI loans and a lower net provision creditincreases in reserves on PCI loans.
NoninterestTotal noninterest income was $99.1$124.7 million down by $36.6 million fromfor the fourth quarter of 2014.2016, an increase of $25.6 million from the same period of 2015. The declineincrease was primarily driven by the recognitionhigher securities gains of a $29.1$9.2 million, gain in the fourth quarter of 2014 related to Bancorporation shares of stock owned by BancShares that were canceled on the merger date and higher 2015lower unfavorable adjustments to the FDIC receivable of $9.2 million. These decreases were partially offset by$7.2 million and a $4.3$4.6 million increase in mortgage income due to favorable changes in valuation adjustments on mortgage servicing assets and increased production and sales of loans.

These decreases were partially offset byyear, due to a $6.7$7.2 million increase in employee benefitssalaries and wages related to annual merit increases, and to a lesser extent, higher temporary labor costs. Noninterest expense also increased due to higher pensionforeclosure-related expense of $3.9 million resulting from lower gains on OREO sales, which offset this expense, an increase in cardholder and healthcare costs.merchant processing expense of $2.0 million due to higher sales volume, higher bank building repairs related to Hurricane Matthew and an increase in unfunded commitment reserves.

Loan fees were $8.0$12.1 million and $4.4$8.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively. Yields related to loans, leases and securities exempt from both federal and state income taxes, federal income taxes only, or state income taxes only are stated on a taxable-equivalent basis assuming statutory federal income tax rates of 35.0 percent for each period and state income tax rates of 5.53.1 percent and 6.25.5 percent for the three months ended December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively. The taxable-equivalent adjustment was $1,428$1,413 and $1,190$1,428 for the three months ended December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively. The rate/volume variance is allocated equally between the changes in volume and rate.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
BancShares' management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of BancShares' disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, in accordance with Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that BancShares' disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that it is able to record, process, summarize and report in a timely manner the information required to be disclosed in the reports it files under the Exchange Act.
No changes in BancShares' internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fourth quarter of 20152016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, BancShares' internal control over financial reporting.
MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The management of First Citizens BancShares, Inc. (BancShares) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. BancShares’ internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. As permitted by guidance provided by the Staff of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the scope of management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 has excluded North Milwaukee State Bank (NMSB) acquired on March 11, 2016, First CornerStone Bank (FCSB) acquired on May 6, 2016 and Cordia Bancorp, Inc. (Cordia) acquired on September 1, 2016. NMSB, FCSB and Cordia represented 0.15 percent, 0.11 percent and 0.32 percent of consolidated revenue (total interest income and total noninterest income, excluding any related gains on acquisition) for the year ended December 31, 2016, respectively, and 0.21 percent, 0.11 percent and 0.82 percent of consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2016, respectively.
BancShares' management assessed the effectiveness of the company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.2016. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment, BancShares' management believes that, as of December 31, 2015,2016, BancShares' internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company's financial reporting. A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
BancShares' independent registered public accounting firm has issued an audit report on the company's internal control over financial reporting. This report appears on page 62.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
First Citizens BancShares, Inc.
We have audited First Citizens BancShares, Inc. and Subsidiaries’ (BancShares) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015,2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). BancShares’ management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the BancShares’ internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
As described in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, the scope of management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 has excluded North Milwaukee State Bank (NMSB) acquired on March 11, 2016, First CornerStone Bank (FCSB) acquired on May 6, 2016 and Cordia Bancorp, Inc. (Cordia) acquired on September 1, 2016. Accordingly, we have also excluded NMSB, FCSB and Cordia from the scope of our audit of internal control over financial reporting. NMSB, FCSB and Cordia represented 0.15 percent, 0.11 percent, and 0.32 percent of consolidated revenue (total interest income and total noninterest income, excluding the related gains on acquisition) for the year ended December 31, 2016, respectively, and 0.21 percent, 0.11 percent, and 0.82 percent of consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2016, respectively.
In our opinion, First Citizens BancShares, Inc. and Subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015,2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements of BancShares as of December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015,2016, and our report dated February 24, 2016,22, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
First Citizens BancShares, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Citizens BancShares, Inc. and Subsidiaries (BancShares) as of December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015.2016. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of BancShares’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First Citizens BancShares, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015,2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), BancShares’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015,2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 24, 2016,22, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

See Note B for additional information regarding the CCBT merger.
The accounting and reporting policies of BancShares and its subsidiaries are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Additionally, where applicable, the policies conform to the accounting and reporting guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory authorities. The following is a summary of BancShares' more significant accounting policies.Business Combinations.

The accounting and reporting policies of BancShares and its subsidiaries are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Additionally, where applicable, the policies conform to the accounting and reporting guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory authorities. The following is a summary of BancShares' more significant accounting policies.
Principles of Consolidation and Segment Reporting
The consolidated financial statements of BancShares include the accounts of BancShares and those subsidiaries that are majority owned by BancShares and over which BancShares exercises control. In consolidation, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. The results of operations of companies or assets acquired are included only from the dates of acquisition. All material wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries are consolidated unless GAAP requires otherwise. BancShares operates with centralized management and combined reporting, thus BancShares operates as one consolidated reportable segment.
FCB has investments in certain partnerships and limited liability entities primarily for the purposes of fulfilling Community Reinvestment Act requirements and/or obtaining tax credits. The entities have been evaluated and determined to be variable interest entities (VIEs). VIEs are legal entities in which equity investors do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to independently
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance, or do not have the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or the right to receive expected residual returns of the entity. Consolidation of a VIE is considered appropriate if a reporting entity holds a controlling financial interest in the VIE. Analysis of these investments concluded that FCB is not the primary beneficiary and does not hold a controlling interest in the VIEs and, therefore, the assets and liabilities of these entities are not consolidated into the financial statements of FCB or BancShares. The recorded investment in these entities is reported within other assets in BancShares'the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Reclassifications
In certain instances, amounts reported in prior years' consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported cash flows, shareholders' equity or net income.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and different assumptions in the application of these policies could result in material changes in BancShares' consolidated financial position, the consolidated results of its operations or related disclosures. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change include:
Allowance for loan and lease losseslosses;
Fair value of financial instruments, including acquired assets and assumed liabilitiesliabilities;
Pension plan assumptionsassumptions;
Cash flow estimates on purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loansloans;
Receivable fromGoodwill and payable to the other intangible assets;
FDIC for loss share agreementsshared-loss receivable and payable; and
Income tax assets, liabilities and expense
Business Combinations
BancShares accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method of accounting, acquired assets and assumed liabilities are included with the acquirer's accounts as of the date of acquisition, with any excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired recognized as either finite lived intangibles or capitalized as goodwill. In addition, acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs are recognized as period expenses as incurred.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks and federal funds sold. Cash and cash equivalents have initial maturities of three months or less. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value due to its short-term nature.
Investment Securities
BancShares classifies marketable investment securities as held to maturity, available for sale or trading. Interest income and dividends on securities are recognized in interest income on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method. At December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, BancShares had no investment securities held for trading purposes.
Debt securities are classified as held to maturity where BancShares has both the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. These securities are reported at amortized cost.
Investment securities that may be sold to meet liquidity needs arising from unanticipated deposit and loan fluctuations, changes in regulatory capital requirements or unforeseen changes in market conditions, are classified as available for sale. Securities
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
available for sale are reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, net of deferred income taxes, in the shareholders' equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains or losses realized from the sale of securities available for sale are determined by specific identification on a trade date basis and are included in noninterest income.
BancShares evaluates each held to maturity and available for sale security in a loss position for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) at least quarterly. BancShares considers such factors as the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been below amortized cost, long term expectations and recent experience regarding principal and interest payments, BancShares' intent to sell, and whether it is more likely than not that it would be required to sell those securities
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
before the anticipated recovery of the amortized cost basis. The credit component of an OTTI loss is recognized in earnings and the non-credit component is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income in situations where BancShares does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not that BancShares will not be required to sell the security prior to recovery.
NonmarketableNon-marketable Securities
Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system to purchase and hold restricted stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. This stock is restricted in that it may only be sold to the FHLB and all sales must be at par. Accordingly, the FHLB restricted stock is carried at cost, less any applicable impairment charges.
NonmarketableNon-marketable securities are periodically evaluated for impairment. BancShares considers positive and negative evidence, including the profitability and asset quality of the issuer, dividend payment history and recent redemption experience when determining the ultimate recoverability of the recorded investment. NonmarketableNon-marketable securities are recorded within other assets in BancShares’the Consolidated Balance Sheets. FHLB and nonmarketablenon-marketable securities were $37.7$43.8 million and $52.8$37.7 million at December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively.
Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects
BancShares and FCB have investments in certain partnerships and limited liability entities primarily for the purposes of fulfilling Community Reinvestment Act requirements and obtaining tax credits and accounts for investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, the initial cost of the investment is amortized in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and the net investment performance is recognized in the income statement as a component of income tax expense. All of the investments held in qualified affordable housing projects qualify for the proportional amortization method and were $109.8 million and $85.6 million at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and are included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Loans Held For Sale
BancShares has elected to apply the fair value option for new originations of prime residential mortgage loans to be sold. BancShares elected the fair value option in 2014 and accounts for the forward commitments used to economically hedge the loans held for sale at fair value. Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income in mortgage income. Origination fees collected are deferred and recorded in mortgage income in the period the corresponding loan is sold.
Loans and Leases
BancShares' accounting methods for loans and leases differ depending on whether they are purchased credit impaired (PCI) or non-PCI.
Non-Purchased Credit Impaired (Non-PCI) Loans and Leases
Loans and leases for which management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future are classified as held for investment and carried at the principal amount outstanding net of any unearned income, charge-offs and unamortized fees and costs on non-PCI loans. Nonrefundable fees collected and certain direct costs incurred related to loan originations are deferred and recorded as an adjustment to loans and leases outstanding. The net amount of the nonrefundable fees and costs are amortized to interest income over the contractual lives using methods that approximate a constant yield. Net deferred fees on non-PCI loans, including unearned income and unamortized costs, fees, premiums and discounts, were $16.6$6.7 million and $20.8$16.6 million at December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively.
Non-PCI loans include originated commercial, originated noncommercial, purchased non-impaired loans, purchased leases and certain purchased revolving credit. For purchased non-impaired loans to be included as non-PCI, it must be determined that the loans do not have a discount at least in part due to credit quality at the time of acquisition. The difference between fair value and
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
unpaid principal balance of the loan at the acquisition date is amortized or accreted to interest income over the estimated life of the loans using a method that approximates the interest method.
Purchased Credit Impaired (PCI) Loans and Leases
PCI loans and leases are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. No allowance for loan and lease losses is recorded on the acquisition date as the fair value of the acquired assets incorporates assumptions regarding credit risk.
PCI loans and leases are evaluated at acquisition and where a discount is required at least in part due to credit, the loans are accounted for under the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Purchased impaired loans and leases reflect credit deterioration since origination such that it is probable at acquisition that BancShares will be unable to collect all contractually required payments. As ofAt the acquisition date, the difference between contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected is the nonaccretable difference, which is included as a reduction to the carrying amount of PCI loans and leases.loans. If the timing and amount of the future cash flows is reasonably estimable, any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the asset's remaining life using the effective yield method.
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Over the life of PCI loans, and leases, BancShares continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected on individual loans and leases or on pools of loans and leases sharing common risk characteristics. BancShares evaluates at each balance sheet date whether the estimated cash flows and corresponding present value of its loans and leases determined using the effective interest rates has decreased and if so, recognizes provision for loan and lease losses in itsthe Consolidated Statements of Income. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, BancShares adjusts any prior recorded allowance for loan and lease losses first through a reversal of previously recognized allowance through provision expense, and then the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the loan's or pool's remaining life.
For non-pooled PCI loans, and leases, accretion income is recognized except for situations when the timing and amount of future cash flows cannot be determined. PCI loans and leases with uncertain future cash flows are accounted for under the cost recovery method and those loans and leases are generally reported as nonaccrual.
For PCI loans and leases where the cash flow analysis was initially performed at the loan pool level, the amount of accretable yield and nonaccretable difference is determined at the pool level. Each loan pool is made up of assets with similar characteristics at the date of acquisition including loan type, collateral type and performance status. All loan pools that have accretable yield to be recognized in interest income are classified as accruing regardless of the status of individual loans within the pool.
Impaired Loans, Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDR) and Nonperforming Assets
Management will deem non-PCI loans and leases to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a borrower will be unable to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Generally, management considers the following loans to be impaired: all TDR loans, commercial and consumer relationships which are nonaccrual or 90+ days past due and greater than $500,000 as well as any other loan management deems impaired. When the ultimate collectability of an impaired loan's principal is doubtful, all cash receipts are applied to principal. Once the recorded principal balance has been reduced to zero, future cash receipts are applied first to all previously charged offcharged-off principal until fully collected, then to interest income, to the extent that any interest has been foregone.
A loan is considered a TDR when both of the following occur: (1) a modification to a borrower's debt agreement is made and (2) a concession is granted for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial difficulties that otherwise would not be granted. TDRs are undertaken in order to improve the likelihood of collection on the loan and may result in a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, other modifications to the structure of the loan that fall outside of normal underwriting policies and procedures or, in certain limited circumstances, forgiveness of principal or interest. Loans that have been restructured as a TDR are treated and reported as such for the remaining life of the loan. Modifications of PCI loans that are part of a pool accounted for as a single asset are not designated as TDRs. Modifications of non-pooled PCI loans are designated as TDRs in the same manner as non-PCI loans.loans and leases. TDRs can be loans remaining on nonaccrual, moving to nonaccrual or continuing on accruing status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the borrower. In circumstances where a portion of the loan balance is charged off,charged-off, BancShares typically classifies the remaining balance as nonaccrual.
In connection with commercial TDRs, the decision to maintain a loan that has been restructured on accrual status is based on a current credit evaluation of the borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment under the modified terms. This evaluation includes consideration of the borrower's current capacity to pay, which may include a review of the borrower's current financial statements, an analysis of cash flow documenting the borrower's capacity to pay all debt obligations and an evaluation of secondary

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
sources of payment from the borrower and any guarantors. This evaluation also includes an evaluation of the borrower's current willingness to pay, which may include a review of past payment history, an evaluation of the borrower's willingness to provide information on a timely basis and consideration of offers from the borrower to provide additional collateral or guarantor support. The credit evaluation also reflects consideration of the adequacy of collateral to cover all principal and interest and trends indicating improving profitability and collectability of receivables.
Nonaccrual TDRs may be returned to accrual status based on a current credit evaluation of the borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment under the modified terms. This evaluation includes consideration of the borrower's sustained historical repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally a minimum of six months, prior to the date on which the loan is returned to accrual status. Sustained historical repayment performance for a reasonable time prior to the restructuring may also be considered.
Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans and leases and foreclosed property. Foreclosed property consists of real estate and other assets acquired as a result of loan defaults.
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
BancShares classifies all non-PCI loans and leases as past due when the payment of principal and interest based upon contractual terms is greater than 30 days delinquent. Generally, commercial loans are placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest becomes 90 days past due or when it is probable that principal or interest is not fully collectible, whichever occurs first. Once a loan is placed on nonaccrual status it is evaluated for impairment and a charge-off is recorded in the amount of the impairment if the loss is deemed confirmed. Consumer loans are subject to mandatory charge-off at a specified delinquency date consistent with regulatory guidelines.
Generally, when loans and leases are placed on nonaccrual status all previously uncollected accrued interest is reversed from interest income. All payments received thereafter are applied as a reduction of the remaining principal balance as long as concern exists as to the ultimate collection of the principal. Loans and leases, including TDRs, are generally removed from nonaccrual status when they become current as to both principal and interest, the borrower has demonstrated a sustained period of repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally a minimum of six months, and concern no longer exists as to the collectability of principal and interest.
Other Real Estate Ownedreal estate owned (OREO) acquired as a result of foreclosure is carried at net realizable value (NRV). Net realizable valueNRV equals fair value less estimated selling costs. Any excess of recorded investment in the loan over NRV at the time of foreclosure is booked against the allowance for loan and lease losses as a charge-off. Any excess in NRV over recorded investment in the loan at the time of foreclosure is recorded as a recovery of prior charge-off, if any, up to the amount of prior charge-off with excess recorded as an offset to foreclosure-related expense.
OREO is subject to at least annual periodic revaluations of the underlying collateral, at least annually.collateral. The periodic revaluations are generally based on the appraised value of the property and may include additional adjustments based upon management's review of the valuation and specific knowledge of the OREO. Routine maintenance costs, subsequent declines in market value and net losses on disposal are included in foreclosure-related expense. Gains and losses resulting from the sale or write down of OREO and income and expenses related to its operation are also recorded in foreclosure-related expense.
OREO covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC (covered OREO) is reported exclusive of expected reimbursement of cash flows from the FDIC at NRV. Subsequent downward adjustments to the estimated recoverable value of covered OREO result in a reduction in covered OREO, a charge to foreclosure-related expenses and an increase in the FDIC receivable for the estimated amount to be reimbursed, with a corresponding amount recorded as an adjustment to FDIC receivable. Covered OREO is discussed in more detail below.
Covered Assets and Receivable from FDIC for Loss ShareShared-Loss Agreements
Assets subject to loss shareshared-loss agreements with the FDIC include certain loans and leases and OREO. These loss shareshared-loss agreements afford BancShares significant protection as they cover realized losses on certain loans and other assets purchased from the FDIC during the time period specified in the agreements. Realized losses covered include loan contractual balances, accrued interest on loans for up to 90 days, the book value of foreclosed real estate acquired and certain direct costs, less cash or other consideration received by BancShares.
The FDIC receivable is recorded at fair value at the acquisition date of the indemnified assets and is measured on the same basis as the underlying loans, subject to collectability and/or contractual limitations. The fair value of the loss shareshared-loss agreements on the acquisition date reflects the discounted reimbursements expected to be received from the FDIC, using an appropriate discount rate, which is based on the market rate for a similar term security at the time of the acquisition adjusted for additional risk premium.
The loss shareshared-loss agreements continue to be valued on the same basis as the related indemnified assets. Because the PCI loans are subject to the accounting prescribed by ASC 310-30, subsequent changes to the basis of the loss shareshared-loss agreements also follow that model. Deterioration in the credit quality of the loans, which is immediately recorded as an adjustment to the allowance for loan and lease losses, would immediately increase the FDIC receivable, with the offset recorded through the Consolidated Statements of Income in other noninterest income. Improvements in the credit quality or cash flows of loans, which is reflected as an adjustment to yield and accreted into income over the remaining life of the loans, decrease the FDIC receivable, with such decrease being amortized into income over (1) the same period as the underlying loans or (2) the life of the loss shareshared-loss agreements, whichever is shorter. Loss assumptions used in the basis of the indemnified loans are consistent with the loss assumptions used to measure the indemnification asset. Discounts and premiums reflecting the estimated timing of expected reimbursements are accreted into income over the life of the loss shareshared-loss agreements. Upon evaluation of certain characteristics, circumstances, nature and

remaining term associated with and balance of indemnification assets, management may determine different subsequent accounting treatment to be appropriate.
Collection and other servicing costs related to loans covered under FDIC loss shareshared-loss agreements are charged to noninterest expense as incurred. A receivable from the FDIC is recorded for the estimated amount of such expenses that are expected to be reimbursed and results in an increase to noninterest income. The estimated amount of such reimbursements is determined by
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
several factors including the existence of loan participation agreements with other financial institutions, the presence of partial guarantees from the Small Business Administration (SBA) and whether a reimbursable loss has been recorded on the loan for which collection and servicing costs have been incurred. Future adjustments to the receivable from the FDIC may be necessary as additional information becomes available related to the amount of previously recorded collection and other servicing costs that will actually be reimbursed by the FDIC and the probable timing of such reimbursements.
Payable to the FDIC for Loss ShareShared-Loss Agreements
The purchase and assumption agreements for certain FDIC-assisted transactions include payments that may be owed to the FDIC at the termination of the loss shareshared-loss agreements. The payment is due to the FDIC if actual cumulative losses on acquired covered assets are lower than the cumulative losses originally estimated by the FDIC at the time of acquisition. The liability is calculated by discounting estimated future payments and is reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as an FDIC loss shareshared-loss payable. The ultimate settlement amount of the payment is dependent upon the performance of the underlying covered loans, recoveries, the passage of time and actual claims submitted to the FDIC.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL)
The ALLL represents management's best estimate of probable credit losses within the loan and lease portfolio at the balance sheet date. Management determines the ALLL based on an ongoing evaluation. This evaluation is inherently subjective because it requires material estimates, including the amount and timing of cash flows expected to be received on PCI loans. Those estimates are susceptible to significant change. Adjustments to the ALLL are recorded with a corresponding entry to provision for loan and lease losses. Loan and lease balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged offcharged-off against the ALLL. Recoveries of amounts previously charged offcharged-off are generally credited to the ALLL.
Accounting standards require the presentation of certain information at the portfolio segment level, which represents the level at which the company has developed and documents a systematic methodology to determine its ALLL. BancShares evaluates its loan and lease portfolio using three portfolio segments; non-PCI commercial, non-PCI noncommercial and PCI. The non-PCI commercial segment includes commercial construction and land development, commercial mortgage, commercial and industrial, lease financing and other commercial real estate loans and the related ALLL is calculated based on a risk-based approach as reflected in credit risk grades assigned to individual loans. The non-PCI noncommercial segment includes noncommercial construction and land development, residential mortgage, revolving mortgage and consumer loans and the related ALLL is determined using a delinquency-based approach.
BancShares' methodology for calculating the ALLL includes estimating a general allowance for pools of unimpaired loans and specific allocations for significant individual impaired loans for non-PCI loans. It also includes establishing an ALLL for PCI loans that have deteriorated since acquisition. The general allowance is based on historical net historical loan loss experience for homogeneous groups of loans based mostly on loan type then aggregated on the basis of similar risk characteristics and performance trends. This allowance estimate contains qualitative components that allow management to adjust reserves based on historical loan loss experience for changes in the economic environment, portfolio trends and other factors. The methodology also considers the remaining discounts recognized upon acquisition associated with purchased non-impaired loans in estimating a general allowance. The specific allowance component is determined when management believes that the collectability of an individually reviewed loan has been impaired and a loss is probable.
A primary component of determining the general allowance for performing and classified loans not analyzed specifically is the actual loss history of the various classes. Loan loss factors based on historical experience may be adjusted for significant factors that, in management's judgment, affect the collectability of the portfolio at the balance sheet date. For non-PCI commercial loans and leases, management incorporates historical net loss data to develop the applicable loan loss factors by utilizing information that considers the class of the commercial loan and associated risk rating. For the non-PCI noncommercial segment, management incorporates specific loan class and delinquency status trends into the loan loss factors. Loan loss factors may be adjusted quarterly based on changes in the level of historical net charge-offs and updates by management, such as the number of periods included in the calculation of loss factors, loss severity and portfolio attrition.
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The qualitative framework used in estimating the general allowance considers economic conditions, composition of the loan portfolio, trends in delinquent and nonperforming loans, historical loss experience by categories of loans, concentrations of credit, changes in lending policies and underwriting standards, regulatory exam results and other factors indicative of inherent losses remaining in the portfolio. Management may adjust the ALLL calculated based on historical loan loss factors by the factors in the qualitative framework to address environmental factors not reflected in the historical experience. These adjustments are specific to the loan class level.
In accordance with our allowance methodology, certain loan loss factors related to the quantitative component of the ALLL and reserve factors related to the qualitative component of the ALLL were updated in 2015 resulting2016. This methodology update resulted in a release of approximately $4.8 million of reserves.no material net impact to the ALLL.
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The ALLL for PCI loans is estimated based on the expected cash flows approach. Over the life of PCI loans, BancShares continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected on individual loans or pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics. BancShares evaluates at each balance sheet date whether the estimated cash flows and corresponding present value of its loans and leases determined using their effective interest rates has decreased and if so, recognizes provision for loan and lease losses. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, BancShares adjusts any prior recorded allowance for loan and lease losses first and then the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the loan's or pool's remaining life.
Prior to the second quarter of 2013, a portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses was not allocated to any specific class of loans. This nonspecific portion reflected management's best estimate of the elements of imprecision and estimation risk inherent in the calculation of the overall ALLL. During the second quarter of 2013, BancShares implemented enhancements to the process to estimate the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded commitments, described below. Through detailed analysis of historical loss data, the process enhancements enabled allocation of the previously unallocated "nonspecific" ALLL and a portion of the reserve for unfunded loan commitments to specific loan classes. The enhanced ALLL estimates implicitly include the risk of draws on open lines within each loan class. Other than the modifications described above, the enhancements to the methodology did not have a material impact on the ALLL.
Specific allocations are made for larger, individual impaired loans. All impaired loans are reviewed for potential impairment on a quarterly basis. Specific valuation allowances are established or partial charge-offs are recorded on impaired loans for the difference between the recorded investment in the loan and the estimated fair value. The fair value of impaired loans is based on the present value of expected cash flows, market prices of the loans, if available, or the value of the underlying collateral. Expected cash flows are discounted at the loans' effective interest rates.
Management continuously monitors and actively manages the credit quality of the entire loan portfolio and adjusts the ALLL to an appropriate level. By assessing the probable estimated incurred losses in the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis, management is able to adjust specific and general loss estimates based upon the most recent information available. Future adjustments to the ALLL may be necessary based on changes in economic and other conditions. Additionally, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review BancShares' ALLL. Such agencies may require the recognition of adjustments to the ALLL based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination. Management considers the established ALLL adequate to absorb probable losses that relate to loans and leases outstanding as of December 31, 2015.2016.
Each portfolio segment and the classes within those segments are subject to risks that could have an adverse impact on the credit quality of the loan and lease portfolio and the related ALLL. Management has identified the most significant risks as described below that are generally similar among the segments and classes. While the list is not exhaustive, it provides a description of the risks management has determined are the most significant.
Non-PCI Commercial Loans and Leases
Non-PCI commercial loans or leases, excluding purchased non-impaired loans, purchased leases and certain purchased revolving credit, are centrally underwritten based primarily upon the customer's ability to generate the required cash flow to service the debt in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions of the loan agreement. A complete understanding of the borrower's business, including the experience and background of the principals, is obtained prior to approval. To the extent that the loan or lease is secured by collateral, which is true for the majority of commercial loans and leases, the likely value of the collateral and what level of strength the collateral brings to the transaction is evaluated. To the extent that the principals or other parties provide personal guarantees, the relative financial strength and liquidity of each guarantor is assessed.
The significant majority of relationships in the non-PCI commercial segment are assigned credit risk grades based upon an assessment of conditions that affect the borrower's ability to meet contractual obligations under the loan agreement. This process includes reviewing the borrowers' financial information, payment history, credit documentation, public information and other information specific to each borrower. Credit risk grades are reviewed annually, or at any point management becomes aware of information affecting the borrowers' ability to fulfill their obligations. Our credit risk grading standards are described in Note D.
The impairment assessment and determination of the related specific reserve for each impaired loan is based on the loan's characteristics. Impairment measurement for loans that are not collateral dependent and are paying principal and interest based upon contractual terms is based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. Specific valuation allowances are established or partial charge offscharge-offs are recorded for the difference between the recorded investment in the loan and the estimated fair value for originated loans. Specific valuation allowances for purchased non-impaired loans are established or partial charge offs are recorded for the
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
established or partial charge-offs are recorded for the difference between the loan amount and the estimated fair value with consideration for the remaining discounts recognized upon acquisition. Impairment measurement for most real estate loans, particularly when a loan is considered to be a probable foreclosure, is based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. Collateral is appraised and market value, appropriately adjusted for an assessment of the sales and marketing costs as well as the expected holding period, are used to calculate an anticipated fair value.
General reserves for collective impairment are based on estimated incurred losses related to unimpaired commercial loans and leases as of the balance sheet date. Incurred loss estimates for the originated commercial segment are based on average loss rates by credit risk ratings, which are estimated using historical loss experience and credit risk rating migrations. Incurred loss estimates may be adjusted through a qualitative assessment to reflect current economic conditions and portfolio trends including credit quality, concentrations, aging of the portfolio and significant policy and underwriting changes.
Common risks to each class of commercial loans include general economic conditions within the markets BancShares serves, as well as risks that are specific to each transaction including demand for products and services, personal events, such as disability or change in marital status and reductions in the value of collateral. Due to the concentration of loans in the medical, dental and related fields, BancShares is susceptible to risks that governmental actions will fundamentallymaterially alter the medical care industry in the United States.
In addition to these common risks for the majority of the non-PCI commercial segment, additional risks are inherent in certain classes of non-PCI commercial loans and leases.
Commercial construction and land development
Commercial construction and land development loans are highly dependent on the supply and demand for commercial real estate in the markets served by BancShares as well as the demand for newly constructed residential homes and lots that customers are developing. Deterioration in demand could result in decreases in collateral values and could make repayment of the outstanding loans more difficult for customers.
Commercial mortgage, commercial and industrial and lease financing
Commercial mortgage loans, commercial and industrial loans and lease financing are primarily dependent on the ability of borrowers to achieve business results consistent with those projected at loan origination resulting in cash flow sufficient to service the debt. To the extent that a customer's business results are significantly unfavorable versus the original projections, the ability for the loan to be serviced on a basis consistent with the contractual terms may be at risk. While these loans and leases are generally secured by real property, personal property or business assets such as inventory or accounts receivable, it is possible that the liquidation of the collateral will not fully satisfy the obligation.
Other commercial real estate
Other commercial real estate loans consist primarily of loans secured by multifamily housing and agricultural loans. The primary risk associated with multifamily loans is the ability of the income-producing property that collateralizes the loan to produce adequate cash flow to service the debt. High unemployment or generally weak economic conditions may result in customers having to provide rental rate concessions to achieve adequate occupancy rates. The performance of agricultural loans is highly dependent on favorable weather, reasonable costs for seed and fertilizer and the ability to successfully market the product at a profitable margin. The demand for these products is also dependent on macroeconomic conditions that are beyond the control of the borrower.
Non-PCI Noncommercial Loans and Leases
Non-PCI noncommercial loans, excluding purchased non-impaired loans and certain purchased revolving credit, are centrally underwritten using automated credit scoring and analysis tools. These credit scoring tools take into account factors such as payment history, credit utilization, length of credit history, types of credit currently in use and recent credit inquiries. To the extent that the loan is secured by collateral, the likely value of that collateral is evaluated.
The ALLL for the non-PCI noncommercial segment is primarily calculated on a pooled basis using a delinquency-based approach. Estimates of incurred losses are based on historical loss experience and the migration of receivables through the various delinquency pools applied to the current risk mix. These estimates may be adjusted through a qualitative assessment to reflect current economic conditions, portfolio trends and other factors. The remaining portion of the ALLL related to the non-PCI noncommercial segment results from loans that are deemed impaired. The impairment assessment and determination of the related specific reserve for each impaired loan is based on the loan's characteristics. Impairment measurement for loans that are not collateral dependent and are paying principal and interest based upon contractual terms is based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
not collateral dependent is based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. Specific valuation allowances are established or partial charge-offs are recorded for the difference between the recorded investment in the loan and the estimated fair value for originated non-PCI loans. Specific valuation allowances for purchased non-impaired loans are established or partial charge offscharge-offs are recorded for the difference between the recorded investment in the loan and the estimated fair value with consideration for the remaining discounts recognized upon acquisition. Impairment measurement for most real estate loans, particularly when a loan is considered to be a probable foreclosure, is based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. Collateral is appraised and market value, appropriately adjusted for an assessment of the sales and marketing costs as well as the expected holding period, are used to calculate an anticipated fair value.
Common risks to each class of noncommercial loans include risks that are not specific to individual transactions such as general economic conditions within the markets BancShares serves, particularly unemployment and potential declines in real estate values. Personal events such as disability or change in marital status also add risk to noncommercial loans.
In addition to these common risks for the majority of noncommercial loans, additional risks are inherent in certain classes of noncommercial loans.
Revolving mortgage
Revolving mortgage loans are often secured by second liens on residential real estate, thereby making such loans particularly susceptible to declining collateral values. A substantial decline in collateral value could render a second lien position to be effectively unsecured. Additional risks include lien perfection inaccuracies, disputes with first lienholders and uncertainty regarding the customer's performance with respect to the first lien that may further weaken the collateral position. Further, the open-end structure of these loans creates the risk that customers may draw on the lines in excess of the collateral value if there have been significant declines since origination.
Consumer
The consumer loan portfolio includes loans secured by personal property such as automobiles, marketable securities, other titled recreational vehicles including boats and motorcycles, as well as unsecured consumer debt.debt and student loans. The value of underlying collateral within this class is especially volatile due to potential rapid depreciation in values since date of loan origination, potentially in excess of principal balances.
Residential mortgage and noncommercial construction and land development
Residential mortgage and noncommercial construction and land development loans are made to individuals and are typically secured by 1-4 family residential property, undeveloped land and partially developed land in anticipation of pending construction of a personal residence. Significant and rapid declines in real estate values can result in residential mortgage loan borrowers having debt levels in excess of the current market value of the collateral. Noncommercial construction and land development projects can experience delays in completion and cost overruns that exceed the borrower's financial ability to complete the project. Such cost overruns can routinely result in foreclosure of partially completed and unmarketable collateral.
PCI Loans
The risks associated with PCI loans are generally consistent with the risks identified for commercial and noncommercial non-PCI loans and leases and the classes of loans within those segments. However, these loans were underwritten by other institutions, often with weaker lending standards. Additionally, in some cases, collateral for PCI loans is located in regions that have experienced erosion of real estate values. Therefore, there exists a significant risk that PCI loans are not adequately supported by borrower cash flow or the values of underlying collateral.
The ALLL for PCI loans is estimated based on the expected cash flows approach. Over the life of PCI loans, BancShares continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected on individual loans or pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics. BancShares evaluates at each balance sheet date whether the estimated cash flows and corresponding present value of its loans and leases determined using their effective interest rates has decreased and if so, recognizes provision for loan and lease losses. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, BancShares adjusts any prior recorded allowance for loan and lease losses first and then the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the loan's or pool's remaining life.

The reserve for unfunded

commitments is presented within other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, distinct from the ALLL, and adjustments to the reserve for unfunded commitments are included in other noninterest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The reserve for unfunded commitments was not significantmaterial at December 31, 20152016 or 2014.2015.
Premises and Equipment
Premises, equipment and capital leases are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method and are expensed over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 7 to 40 years for premises and 3 to 10 years for furniture, software and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases, including renewal period if renewal period is reasonably assured (often through the presence of a bargain renewal option), or the useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Gains and losses on dispositions are recorded in other noninterest expense. Maintenance and repairs are charged to occupancy expense or equipment expense as incurred. Obligations under capital leases are amortized over the life of the lease using the effective interest method to allocate payments between principal and interest. Rent expense and rental income on operating leases are recorded in noninterest expense and noninterest income, respectively, using the straight-line method over the appropriate lease terms.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
BancShares accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting. Under acquisition accounting, if the purchase price of an acquired company exceeds the fair value of its net assets, the excess is carried on the acquirer's balance sheet as goodwill. An intangible asset is recognized as an asset apart from goodwill if it arises from contractual or other legal rights or if it is capable of being separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged. Intangible assets that are separately identifiable assets, such as core deposit intangibles, resulting from acquisitions are amortized on an accelerated basis over an estimated useful life and evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.
Goodwill is not amortized, but is evaluated at least annually for impairment or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that may trigger a decline in the value of the reporting unit or otherwise indicate that a potential impairment exists. Examples of such events or circumstances include deterioration of general economic conditions, limitations on accessing capital, other equity and credit market developments, adverse change(s) in the environment in which BancShares operates, regulatory or political developments and changes in management, key personnel, strategy or customers. The evaluation of goodwill is based on a variety of factors, including common stock trading multiples and data from comparable acquisitions. Potential impairment of goodwill exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, the fair value for the reporting unit is computed using various methods including market capitalization, price-earnings multiples, price-to-tangible book and market premium.
To the extent the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit's goodwill may be impaired, which would require the second step of impairment testing to be performed. In the second step, the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is determined by allocating the reporting unit's fair value to all of its assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination at the date of the impairment test. If the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill is impaired and is written down to the implied fair value. The loss recognized is limited to the carrying amount of goodwill. Once an impairment loss is recognized, future increases in fair value will not result in the reversal of previously recognized losses.
Annual impairment tests are conducted as of July 31 each year. Based on the July 31, 2016 and 2015, impairment test,tests, management concluded there was no indication of goodwill impairment. In addition to the annual testing requirement, impairment tests are performed if various other events occur that may trigger a decline in value including significant adverse changes in the business climate, considering various qualitative and quantitative factors to determine whether impairment exists. As the stock market experienced volatility after the annual impairment test, management monitored the volatility and determined it did not indicate an impairment test triggering event. Additionally, there have been no other such events subsequent to the annual impairment test performed during 2015.2016.

Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) are recognized separately when they are retained as loans are sold or acquired through acquisition. When mortgage loans are sold, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value and gains on sale of loans are recorded within mortgage income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. All classes of servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be amortized against mortgage income in non-interestnoninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans with the offset being a reduction in the cost basis of the servicing asset. MSRs are evaluated for impairment quarterly based upon the fair value of the rights as compared

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
to carrying amount. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into groupings based on predominant risk characteristics and is recorded as a reduction of mortgage income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. If BancShares later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists for a particular grouping, a reduction of the valuation reserve may be recorded as an increase to mortgage income in the Consolidated Statements of Income, but only to the extent of previous impairment recognized.
Other intangible assets with estimable lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are periodically reviewed for reasonableness. Identifiable intangible assets represent the estimated value of the core deposits acquired and certain customer relationships.
Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements
Securities sold under repurchase agreements generally have maturities of one day and are reflected as short-term borrowings on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are recorded based on the amount of cash received in connection with the borrowing.
At December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, BancShares had $592.2$590.8 million and $294.4$592.2 million of securities sold under repurchase agreements included as short-term borrowings on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.
Fair Values
Fair value disclosures are required for all financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. Under GAAP, individual fair value estimates are ranked on a three-tier scale based on the relative reliability of the inputs used in the valuation. Fair values determined using level 1 inputs rely on active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. In situations where identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, fair values may be determined based on level 2 inputs, which represent observable data for similar assets and liabilities. Fair values for assets and liabilities that are not actively traded in observable markets are based on level 3 inputs, which are considered to be nonobservable. Fair value estimates derived from level 3 inputs cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, cannot be realized through immediate settlement of the instrument. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent the underlying value to BancShares. For additional information, see Note M.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are reported when different accounting methods have been used in determining income for income tax purposes and for financial reporting purposes. Deferred taxes are computed using the asset and liability approach as prescribed in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under this method, a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the currently enacted tax rates applicable to the period in which the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of existing assets and liabilities are expected to be reported in BancShares' income tax returns. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
BancShares continually monitors and evaluates the potential impact of current events on the estimates used to establish income tax expenses and income tax liabilities. On a periodic basis, BancShares evaluates its income tax positions based on current tax law, positions taken by various tax auditors within the jurisdictions that BancShares is required to file income tax returns, as well as potential or pending audits or assessments by such tax auditors.
BancShares has unrecognized tax benefits related to the uncertain portion of tax positions that BancShares has taken or expects to take. A liability may be created or an amount refundable may be reduced for the amount of unrecognized tax benefits. These uncertainties result from the application of complex tax laws, rules, regulations and interpretations, primarily in state taxing jurisdictions. Unrecognized tax benefits are assessed quarterly and may be adjusted through current income tax expense in future periods based on changing facts and circumstances, completion of examinations by taxing authorities or expiration of a statute of limitations. Estimated penalties and interest on uncertain tax positions are recognized in income tax expense.
BancShares files a consolidated federal income tax return and various combined and separate company state tax returns.
Derivative Financial Instruments
A derivative is a financial instrument that derives its cash flows, and therefore its value, by reference to an underlying instrument, index or referenced interest rate. These instruments include interest rate swaps, caps, floors, collars, options or other financial instruments designed to hedge exposures to interest rate risk or for speculative purposes.
BancShares selectively uses interest rate swaps for interest rate risk management purposes. BancShares had an interest rate swap, entered into during 2011, that qualified as a cash flow hedge under GAAP and converted variable-rate exposure on outstanding debt to a fixed rate. BancShares' interest rate swap agreement expired in June 2016. At December 31, 2015, the fair value of the

BancShares selectively uses interest rate swaps for interest rate risk management purposes. During 2011, BancShares entered into an interest rate swap that qualifies as a cash flow hedge under GAAP. This interest rate swap converts variable-rate exposure on outstanding debt to a fixed rate. The derivative is valued each quarter and changeswas included in the fair value are recorded onother liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets with an offset to accumulatedand the net change in fair value was included in the net change in other comprehensive income for the effective portion and an offset toliabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Income for any ineffective portion. The assessment of effectiveness is performed using the long-haul method.Cash Flows. BancShares’ interest rate swap has beenwas fully effective since inception; therefore, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap have had no impact on net income. There arewere no speculative derivative financial instruments in any period presented.
In the event of a change in the forecasted cash flows of the underlying hedged item, the related hedge will be terminated, and management will consider the appropriateness of entering into another hedge for the remaining exposure. The fair value of the terminated hedge will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings over the original life of the terminated swap, provided the remaining cash flows are still probable.
Per Share Data
Net income per share has been computed by dividing net income by the average number of both classes of common shares outstanding during each period. BancShares had no potential common stock outstanding in any period.
Cash dividends per share apply to both Class A and Class B common stock. Shares of Class A common stock carry one vote per share, while shares of Class B common stock carry 16 votes per share.
Defined Benefit Pension Plan
BancShares maintains noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering certain qualifying employees. The calculation of the obligations and related expenses under the plans require the use of actuarial valuation methods and assumptions. Actuarial assumptions used in the determination of future values of plan assets and liabilities are subject to management judgment and may differ significantly if different assumptions are used. The discount rate assumption used to measure the plan obligations is based on a yield curve developed from high-quality corporate bonds across a full maturity spectrum. The projected cash flows of the pension plans are discounted based on this yield curve, and a single discount rate is calculated to achieve the same present value. The assumed rate of future compensation increases is reviewed annually based on actual experience and future salary expectations. We also estimate a long-term rate of return on pension plan assets that is used to estimate the future value of plan assets. We consider such factors as the actual return earned on plan assets, historical returns on the various asset classes in the plans and projections of future returns on various asset classes. Refer to Note N for disclosures related to BancShares' defined benefit pension plans.

Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Improvements
The amendments in this ASU represent changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance and make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Additionally, some of the amendments will make the Codification easier to understand and easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies, providing needed clarifications, and improving the presentation of guidance in the Codification.
The transition guidance varies based on the amendments in this ASU. The amendments in this ASU that require transition guidance are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. All other amendments were effective upon issuance. We adopted the amendments effective second quarter of 2015.

FASB ASU 2014-14, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure
This ASU requires a reporting entity to derecognize a mortgage loan and recognize a separate other receivable upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and (3) the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim and at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance expected to be recovered from the guarantor.
The amendments in this ASU were effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. We adopted this guidance effective first quarter of 2015. The initial adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.
FASB ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860)
This ASU aligns the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements executed as a repurchase financing with the accounting for other typical repurchase agreements. Going forward, these transactions would all be accounted for as secured borrowings. The guidance eliminates sale accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and supersedes the guidance under which a transfer of a financial asset and a contemporaneous repurchase financing could be accounted for on a combined basis as a forward agreement, which has resulted in outcomes referred to as off-balance-sheet accounting. The ASU requires a new disclosure for transactions economically similar to repurchase agreements in which the transferor retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial assets throughout the term of the transaction. The ASU also requires expanded disclosures about the nature of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings.
The accounting changes in this ASU were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. In addition, the disclosures for certain transactions accounted for as a sale were effective for the fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2014, while the disclosures for transactions accounted for as secured borrowings were required to be presented for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015.

Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.

If, after performing that assessment, a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a VIE concludes that it does not have the characteristics of a primary beneficiary, the amendments continue to require that reporting entity to evaluate whether it and one or more of its related parties under common control, as a group, have the characteristics of a primary beneficiary, then the party within the related party group that is most closely associated with the VIE is the primary beneficiary.

This ASU does not change GAAP for an intra-entity transfer of inventory. Current GAAP prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
ASU does not specify a method for measuring expected credit losses and allows an entity to apply methods that reasonably reflect its expectations of the credit loss estimate based on the entity's size, complexity and risk profile. In addition, the disclosures of credit quality indicators in relation to the amortized cost of financing receivables, a current disclosure requirement, are further disaggregated by year of origination.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt the guidance by the first quarter of 2020 with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption, our allowance for loan and lease losses will be impacted by the loan portfolio composition and quality at the adoption date as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time.
FASB ASU 2016-07, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting
This ASU eliminates the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The ASU requires that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor's previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. Therefore, upon qualifying for the equity method of accounting, no retroactive adjustment of the investment is required. Further, the ASU requires that an entity that has an available-for-sale equity security that becomes qualified for the equity method of accounting recognize through earnings, the unrealized gain or loss in accumulated other comprehensive income at the date the investment becomes qualified for use of the equity method.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We will adopt the guidance during the first quarter of 2017. BancShares does not anticipate any effect on our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations as a result of adoption.
FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)
This ASU increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The key difference between existing standards and this ASU is the requirement for lessees to recognize on their balance sheet all lease contracts. An entity may make an accounting election by classification to not recognize leases with terms less than 12 months on their balance sheet. Both a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the leased asset, and a lease liability, representing the contractual obligation, are required to be recognized on the balance sheet of the lessee at lease commencement. Further, this ASU requires lessees to classify leases as either operating or finance leases, which are substantially similar to the current operating and capital leases classifications. The distinction between these two classifications under the new standard does not relate to balance sheet treatment, but relates to treatment in the statements of income and cash flows. Lessor guidance remains largely unchanged with the exception of how a lessor determines the appropriate lease classification for each lease to better align the lessor guidance with revised lessee classification guidance.
The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We will adopt during the first quarter of 2019. While we are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, we expect an increase to the Consolidated Balance Sheets for right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities, as well as resulting depreciation expense of the right-of-use assets and interest expense of the lease liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Income, for arrangements previously accounted for as operating leases.
FASB ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
This ASU addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of certain financial instruments. The amendments in this ASU (1) require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without a readily determinable fair value; (3) eliminate the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (4) require public business entities to use exit price notion, rather than entry prices, when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (5) require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial assets on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; (6) require separate presentation in other comprehensive income of the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the organization has elected to measure the

FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
In May 2014, the FASB issued a standard on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers with the core principle being for companies to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also results in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provides guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively and improves guidance for multiple-element arrangements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations, to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, to clarify guidance for identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, to clarify and improve the guidance for certain aspects of Topic 606.
Per ASU 2015-14, Deferral of the Effective Date, this guidance was deferred and is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Our revenue is comprised of net interest income on financial assets and liabilities, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of the new guidance, and noninterest income. We are currently evaluatingcontinue to evaluate the impact of the new standard on our noninterest income and we willon our presentation and disclosures.

In June of 2015, FCB closed one of thesix BVA branches in Atlanta.Richmond, Midlothian, Chesterfield, Colonial Heights and Chester, Virginia.
The CCBTCordia transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding closing date fair values becomes available.
The fair value of assets acquired was $349.3 million, including $241.4 million in loans and $2.2 million of identifiable intangible assets. Liabilities assumed were $323.1 million, including $292.2 million in deposits. As a result of the transaction, FCB recorded $10.8 million of goodwill. The amount of goodwill recorded represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired. This premium paid reflects the increased market share and related synergies that are expected to result from the acquisition. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes as the merger is accounted for as a qualified stock purchase.

There were no adjustments to goodwill based on the allowed one year measurement period. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes as the merger is accounted for as a tax-free exchange.

The merger transaction between BancShares and Bancorporation constituted a triggering event for which Bancorporation undertook a goodwill impairment assessment. Based on the analysis performed, Bancorporation determined that its fair value did not support the goodwill recorded; therefore, Bancorporation recorded a $166.8 million goodwill impairment charge to write-off a portion of goodwill prior to the October 1, 2014 effective date of the merger. This goodwill impairment is included in the pro forma financial results for the year ended December 31, 2014.2016. The transaction is not considered material to BancShares' financial statements and therefore pro forma financial data is not included.

Investments in mortgage-backed securities primarily represent securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. Investments in equity securities and corporate bonds represent positions in securities of other financial institutions. The following table provides the amortized cost and fair value by contractual maturity. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities on certain securities because borrowers and issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties. Repayments of mortgage-backed securities are dependent on the repayments of the underlying loan balances. Equity securities do not have a stated maturity date.

For all periods presented, BancShares had the ability and intent to retain these securities for a period of time sufficient to recover all unrealized losses. Therefore, none of the securities were deemed to be other than temporarily impaired.

NOTE D
LOANS AND LEASES
BancShares' accounting methods for loans and leases differ depending on whether they are purchased credit-impaired (PCI) or non-PCI. Non-PCI loans include originated commercial, originated noncommercial, purchased non-impaired loans and certain purchased revolving and purchased non-impaired loans.credit. For purchased non-impaired loans to be included as non-PCI, it must be determined that the loans do not have a discount due, at least in part, to credit quality at the time of acquisition. Conversely, loans for which it is probable at acquisition that all required payments will not be collected in accordance with contractual terms are considered PCI loans. PCI loans are evaluated at acquisition and where a discount is required at least in part due to credit quality, the non-revolving loans are accounted for under the guidance in ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. PCI loans are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. No allowance for loan and lease losses is recorded on the acquisition date as the fair value of the acquired assets incorporates assumptions regarding credit risk. An allowance is recorded if there is additional credit deterioration after the acquisition date.See Note A of BancShares' Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements providesfor additional information.information on PCI and non-PCI loans and leases.

During 2015, loss share protection expired for non-single family residential loans acquired from Sun American Bank (SAB)2015. The decline was primarily due to the expiration and Williamsburg First National Bank (WFNB) and all loans acquired from First Regional Bank (FRB). The loan balances attermination of certain shared-loss agreements during the year.
At December 31, 2015 for the expired agreements from SAB and WFNB were $26.7 million and $6.8 million, respectively. FRB loan balances at December 31, 2015 were insignificant.

At December 31, 2015, $8.58 billion in noncovered loans with a lendable collateral value of $6.08 billion were used to secure $510.3 million in FHLB of Atlanta advances, resulting in additional borrowing capacity of $5.57 billion. At December 31, 2014, $3.16 billion in noncovered loans with a lendable collateral value of $2.20 billion were used to secure $240.3 million in FHLB of Atlanta advances, resulting additional borrowing capacity of $1.96 billion.
To mitigate interest rate risk and credit risk, we sold $45.9 million of certain residential mortgage loans not originated for sale totaling $77.7 million in 2016, resulting in a gain of $3.8 million. We sold residential mortgage not originated for sale totaling $45.9 million at par duringin 2015.

Loans and $5.9 million, respectively.leases to borrowers in medical, dental or related fields were $4.66 billion as of December 31, 2016, which represents 21.5 percent of total loans and leases, compared to $4.28 billion or 21.2 percent of total loans and leases at December 31, 2015. The credit risk of this industry concentration is mitigated through our underwriting policies that emphasize reliance on adequate borrower cash flow rather than underlying collateral value and our preference for financing secured by owner-occupied real property. Except for this single concentration, no other industry represented more than 10 percent of total loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2016.

Credit quality indicators
Loans and leases are monitored for credit quality on a recurring basis. The credit quality indicators used are dependent on the portfolio segment to which the loan relates. Commercial and noncommercial loans and leases have different credit quality indicators as a result of the unique characteristics of the loan segment being evaluated. The credit quality indicators for non-PCI and PCI commercial loans and leases are developed through a review of individual borrowers on an ongoing basis. Each commercial loan is evaluated annually with more frequent evaluation of more severely criticized loans or leases. The credit quality indicators for PCI and non-PCI noncommercial loans are based on the delinquency status of the borrower. As the borrower becomes more delinquent, the likelihood of loss increases. The indicators represent the rating for loans or leases as of the date presented based on the most recent assessment performed. These credit quality indicators are defined as follows:
Pass – A pass rated asset is not adversely classified because it does not display any of the characteristics for adverse classification.
Special mention – A special mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, such potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects or collateral position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not warrant adverse classification.
Substandard – A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets classified as substandard generally have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. These assets are characterized by the distinct possibility of loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful – An asset classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in an asset classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values.
Loss – Assets classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that it is inappropriate to be carried as an asset. This classification is not necessarily equivalent to any potential for recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not appropriate to defer a full charge-off even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.
Ungraded – Ungraded loans represent loans that are not included in the individual credit grading process due to their relatively small balances or borrower type. The majority of ungraded loans at December 31, 20152016 and December 31, 20142015 relate to business credit cards. Business credit card loans are subject to automatic charge-off when they become 120 days past due in the same manner as unsecured consumer lines of credit. The remaining balance is comprised of a small amount of commercial mortgage, lease financing and other commercial real estate loans.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The aging of the outstanding non-PCI loans and leases, by class, at December 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014 is provided in the table below.
The calculation of days past due begins on the day after payment is due and includes all days through which all required interest or principal has not been paid. Loans and leases 30 days or less past due are considered current as various grace periods that allow borrowers to make payments within a stated period after the due date and still remain in compliance with the loan agreement.

The carrying value of loans on the cost recovery method was $498 thousand at December 31, 2016, and $5.3 million at December 31, 2015, and $33.4 million at December 31, 2014.2015. The cost recovery method is applied to loans when the timing of future cash flows is not reasonably estimable due to borrower nonperformance or uncertainty in the ultimate disposition of the asset. The recorded investment of PCI loans on nonaccrual status was $7.6$3.5 million and $33.4$7.6 million at December 31, 20152016 and December 31, 2014,2015, respectively.
For PCI loans, improved cash flow estimates and receipt of unscheduled loan paymentscredit loss expectations generally result in the reclassification of nonaccretable difference to accretable yield. Accretable yield resulting from the improved ability to estimate futureChanges in expected cash flows generally does not represent amounts previously identified asrelated to credit improvements or deterioration do not affect the nonaccretable difference.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
BancShares accounts for certain loan modifications or restructurings as TDRs. In general, the modification or restructuring of a loan is considered a TDR if, for economic reasons or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial difficulties, a concession is granted to the borrower that creditors would not otherwise consider. Concessions may relate to the contractual interest rate, maturity date, payment structure or other actions. In accordance with GAAP, loans acquired under ASC 310-30, excluding pooled loans, are not initially considered to be TDRs, but can be classified as such if a modification is made subsequent to acquisition. Subsequent modification of a PCI loan accounted for in a pool that would otherwise meet the definition of a TDR is not reported, or accounted for, as a TDR since pooled PCI loans are excluded from the scope of TDR accounting.
The following table provides a summary of total TDRs by accrual status.

Total troubled debt restructurings at December 31, 2015,2016, were $144.8$150.9 million,, of which $30.6$26.4 million were PCI and $114.2$124.5 million were non-PCI. TDRs at December 31, 2014,2015, were $151.5$144.8 million,, which consisted of $46.9$30.6 million PCI and $104.6$114.2 million non-PCI.
The majority of TDRs are included in the special mention, substandard or doubtful grading categories, which results in more elevated loss expectations when projecting the expected cash flows that are used to determine the allowance for loan losses associated with these loans. When a restructured loan subsequently defaults, it is evaluated and downgraded if appropriate. The more severely graded the loan, the lower the estimated expected cash flows and the greater the allowance recorded. Further, all TDRs over $500,000 and graded substandard or lower are evaluated individually for impairment through a review of collateral values or analysis of cash flows.

FDIC LOSS SHARESHARED-LOSS RECEIVABLE AND PAYABLE
BancShares completed six FDIC-assisted transactions with shared-loss agreements during the period beginning 2009 through 2011. Prior to its merger into BancShares, First Citizens Bancorporation, Inc. (Bancorporation) completed three FDIC-assisted transactions with shared-loss agreements: Georgian Bank (acquired in 2009); Williamsburg First National Bank (acquired in 2010); and Atlantic Bank & Trust (acquired in 2011).
During 2016, FCB entered into an agreement with the FDIC to terminate five of FCB's nine shared-loss agreements, including Temecula Valley Bank (TVB), Sun American Bank (SAB), Williamsburg First National Bank (WFNB), Atlantic Bank & Trust (ABT) and Colorado Capital Bank (CCB). Under the terms of the agreement, FCB made a net payment of $20.1 million to the FDIC as consideration for early termination of the shared-loss agreements. Also, FCB wrote-off $1.5 million of the FDIC shared-loss receivable and released $18.2 million of the FDIC shared-loss payable associated with the terminated agreements. As a result, FCB recognized a $3.4 million loss on the termination of the shared-loss agreements.
The following table provides changesearly termination agreement eliminated FCB's FDIC shared-loss payable for SAB and CCB. The remaining FDIC shared-loss payable balance at December 31, 2016 was $97.0 million. In conjunction with the early termination, FCB adjusted the FDIC shared-loss payable under the two remaining shared-loss agreements with clawback provisions and released other related reserves. The clawback liabilities were adjusted in order to conform to the receivablemethodology used to determine the net termination payment. The adjustment to the clawback liabilities is accounted for by management as a change in estimate. The total one-time pre-tax benefit of these adjustments was $20.0 million. The resulting positive net impact to pre-tax earnings from the FDIC for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013:

Post-acquisition adjustments represent the net change in loss estimates related to acquired loans and covered OREO as a result of changes in expected cash flows and the ALLL related to those covered loans. For loans covered by loss share agreements, subsequent decreasesGB in the amount expected to be collected from the borrower or collateral liquidation result in a provision for loan and lease losses, an increase in the ALLL and a proportional adjustment to the receivable from the FDIC for the estimated amount to be reimbursed. Subsequent increases in the amount expected to be collected from the borrower or collateral liquidation result in the reversal of some or all previously recorded provision for loan and lease losses, a decrease in the related ALLL and a proportional adjustment to the receivable from the FDIC, or prospective adjustment to the accretable yield and the related receivable from the FDIC if no provision for loan and lease losses had been recorded previously.The loss share agreements for non-single family residential loans for Temecula Valley Bank, Venture Bank and Georgian Bank expired during$84.8 million.

NOTE M
ESTIMATED FAIR VALUES
Fair value estimates are intended to represent the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Where there is no active market for a financial instrument, BancShares has made estimates using discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. Inputs to these valuation methods are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and require significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Accordingly, the derived fair value estimates presented below are not necessarily indicative of the amounts BancShares could realize in a current market exchange.
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, indicates that assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value according to a fair value hierarchy comprised of three levels. The levels are based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The level within the fair value hierarchy for an asset or liability is based on the highest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement (with levelLevel 1 considered highest and levelLevel 3 considered lowest). A brief description of each level follows:
Level 1 values are based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 values are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Level 3 values are generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.
Valuation adjustments, such as those pertaining to counterparty and BancShares' own credit quality and liquidity, may be necessary to ensure that assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value. Credit valuation adjustments are made when market pricing does not accurately reflect the counterparty's credit quality. As determined by BancShares management, liquidity valuation adjustments may be made to the fair value of certain assets to reflect the uncertainty in the pricing and trading of the instruments when we are unable to observe recent market transactions for identical or similar instruments.instruments are not observed.
BancSharesBancShares' management reviews any changes to its valuation methodologies to ensure they are appropriate and justified, and refines valuation methodologies as more market-based data becomes available. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized at the end of the reporting period.
The methodologies used to estimate the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are discussed below:
Investment securities available for sale. U.S.Treasury,U.S. Treasury, government agency, mortgage-backed securities, municipal securities, corporate bonds and trust preferred securities are generally measured at fair value using a third party pricing service or recent comparable market transactions in similar or identical securities and are classified as levelLevel 2 instruments. Equity securities are measured at fair value using observable closing prices and the valuation also considers the amount of market activity by examining the trade volume of each security. Equity securities are classified as Level 1 if they are traded on a heavily active market and as Level 2 if the observable closing price is from a less than active market.
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Loans held for sale. Certain residential real estate loans are originated to be sold to investors, which are carried at fair value as BancShares elected the fair value option on loans held for sale in 2014.sale. The fair value is based on quoted market prices for similar types of loans. Accordingly, the inputs used to calculate fair value of residential real estate loans held for sale are classified as levelLevel 2 inputs.
Net loans and leases (PCI and Non-PCI). Fair value is estimated based on discounted future cash flows using the current interest rates at which loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality. An additional valuation adjustment is made for liquidity. The inputs used in the fair value measurements for loans and leases are considered levelLevel 3 inputs.
FHLB stock. The carrying amount of FHLB stock is a reasonable estimate of fair value as these securities are not readily marketable and are evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. BancShares considers positive and negative evidence, including the profitability and asset quality of the issuer, dividend payment history and recent redemption experience, when determining the ultimate recoverability of the par value. BancShares believes its investment in FHLB stock is ultimately recoverable at par. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for the FHLB stock are considered levelLevel 2 inputs.
Mortgage servicing rights. Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or market and are, therefore, carried at fair value only when fair value is less than the asset cost. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is performed using a pooling methodology. Similar loans are pooled together and a model that relies on discount rates, estimates of prepayment rates and the weighted average cost to service the loans is used to determine the fair value. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for mortgage servicing rights are considered levelLevel 3 inputs.
Deposits. For non-time deposits, carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of time deposits is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for deposits are considered levelLevel 2 inputs.
Long-term obligations. For fixed rate trust preferred securities,junior subordinated debentures, the fair values are determined based on recent trades of the actual security if available. For other long-term obligations, fair values are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates for similar financial instruments. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for long-term obligations are considered levelLevel 2 inputs.
Payable to the FDIC for loss share agreements.shared-loss payable. The fair value of the payable to the FDIC for loss shareshared-loss agreements is determined by the projected cash flows based on expected payments to the FDIC in accordance with the loss shareshared-loss agreements. Cash flows are discounted using current discount rates based on the expiration date of each loss share agreement to reflect the timing of the estimated amounts due to the FDIC. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for the payable to the FDIC are considered levelLevel 3 inputs.
Interest rate swap. Under the terms of the existingprevious cash flow hedge, BancShares payspaid a fixed payment to the counterparty in exchange for receipt of a variable payment that is determined based on the three-month LIBOR rate. The fair value of the cash

flow hedge is,was, therefore, based on projected LIBOR rates for the duration of the hedge, values that, while observable in the market, arewere subject to adjustment due to pricing considerations for the specific instrument. The interest rate swap agreement expired in June 2016. The inputs used in the fair value measurement of the interest rate swap arewere considered levelLevel 2 inputs.
Off-balance-sheet commitments and contingencies. Carrying amounts are reasonable estimates of the fair values for such financial instruments. Carrying amounts include unamortized fee income and, in some cases, reserves for any credit losses from those financial instruments. These amounts are not material to BancShares' financial position.
For all other financial assets and financial liabilities, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value as of December 31, 20152016 and December 31, 2014.2015. The carrying value and fair value for these assets and liabilities are equivalent because they are relatively short term in nature and there is no interest rate or credit risk relating to them that would cause the fair value to differ from the carrying value. Cash and due from banks is classified on the fair value hierarchy as levelLevel 1. Overnight investments, income earned not collected, short-term borrowings and accrued interest payable are considered levelLevel 2. Lastly, the receivable from the FDIC for loss shareshared-loss agreements is designated as levelLevel 3.

Fair Value Option
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014, BancShares has elected the fair value option for residential real estate loans held for sale. This election reduces certain timing differences in the Consolidated Statements of Income and better aligns with the management of the portfolio from a business perspective.

The changes in fair value in the table above are recorded as a component of mortgage income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Certain other assets are adjusted to their fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including impaired loans, OREO, goodwill, which is periodically tested for impairment, and mortgage servicing rights, which are carried at the lower of amortized cost or market. Non-impaired loans held for investment, deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term obligations are not reported at fair value.
Impaired loans are deemed to be at fair value if an associated allowance or current period charge-off has been recorded. The value of impaired loans is determined by either collateral valuations or discounted present value of the expected cash flow calculations. Collateral values are determined using appraisals or other third-party value estimates of the subject property with discounts generally between 108 and 1412 percent applied for estimated holding and selling costs and other external factors that may impact the marketability of the property. Impaired loans are assigned to an asset manager and monitored monthly for significant changes since the last valuation. If significant changes are noted, the asset manager orders a new valuation or adjusts the valuation accordingly. Expected cash flows are determined using expected payment information at the individual loan level, discounted using the effective interest rate. The effective interest ratesrate generally rangeranges between 2 and 16 percent.
OREO is measured and reported at fair value using collateralasset valuations. CollateralAsset values are determined using appraisals or other third-party value estimates of the subject property with discounts generally between 108 and 1412 percent applied for estimated holding and selling costs and other external factors that may impact the marketability of the property. Changes to the value of the assets between scheduled valuation dates are monitored through continued communication with brokers and monthly reviews by the asset manager assigned to each asset. The asset manager uses the information gathered from brokers and other market sources to identifyIf there are any significant changes in the market or the subject property, as they occur. Valuationsvaluations are then adjusted or new appraisals are ordered to ensure the reported values reflect the most current information. OREO that has been acquired or written down in the current year is deemed to be at fair value and included in the table below.
Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of cost or market and are, therefore, carried at fair value only when fair value is less than the amortized asset cost. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is performed using a pooling methodology. Similar loans are pooled together and a discounted cash flow model, which takes into consideration discount rates, prepayment rates, and the weighted average cost to service the loans, are used to determine the fair value. See Note R for further information on the discount rates, prepayment rates and the weighted average cost to service the loans.

Plan Assets
For the BancShares Plan
Our and Bancorporation Plan, our primary total return objective is to achieve returns that, over the long term, will fund retirement liabilities and provide for the desired plan benefits in a manner that satisfies the fiduciary requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. The plan assets have a long-term time horizon that runs concurrent with the average life expectancy of the participants. As such, the BancShares PlanPlans can assume a time horizon that extends well beyond a full market cycle and can assume a reasonable level of risk. It is expected, however, that both professional investment management and sufficient portfolio diversification will smooth volatility and help to generate a reasonable consistency of return. The investments are broadly diversified across global, economic and market risk factors in an attempt to reduce volatility and target multiple return sources. Within approved guidelines and restrictions, the investment manager has discretion over the timing and selection of individual investments. Plan assets are currently held by FCB Trust Department.

Cash and equivalents comprise approximately 510 percent of BancShares actual plan assets at December 31, 2015,2016, exceeding the target allocation range due to the $30.0$50.0 million contribution to the plan in December 2015.2016.
Bancorporation Plan
Our primary total return objective is to achieve returns that, over the long term, will fund retirement liabilities and provide for the desired plan benefits in a manner that satisfies the fiduciary requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. The plan assets have a long-term time horizon that runs concurrent with the average life expectancy of the participants. As such, the Bancorporation Plan can assume a time horizon that extends well beyond a full market cycle and can assume a reasonable level of risk. It is expected, however, that both professional investment management and sufficient portfolio diversification will smooth volatility and help to generate a reasonable consistency of return. The investments are broadly diversified across global, economic and market risk factors in an attempt to reduce volatility and target multiple return sources. Within approved guidelines and restrictions, the investment manager has discretion over the timing and selection of individual investments. Plan assets are currently held by FCB Trust Department.

At December 31, 2016, $14.3 million of existing gross deferred tax assets relate to net operating loss carryforwards which expire in years beginning in 2024 through 2034. The net operating losses were acquired through the acquisition of Cordia and are subject to the annual limitation set forth by Internal Revenue Code Section 382. No valuation allowance was necessary at December 31, 2016 or 2015 to reduce BancShares’ gross deferred tax asset to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
During the third quarters of 2016 and 2015, BancShares adjusted its net deferred tax asset as a result of reductions in the North Carolina corporate income tax rate that were enacted July 23, 2013. The lower corporate income tax rate resulted in a reduction in the deferred tax asset and an increase in income tax expense in 2016 and 2015. The lower state corporate income tax rate did not have a material impact on income tax expense.
On October 1, 2014, Bancorporation merged with and into BancShares in a statutory merger treated as a "reorganization" within the meaning of section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended. Income tax expense in 2014 has beenwas adjusted for the settlement of the ownership of Bancorporation stock at the date of the merger. Income tax expense haswas also been adjusted for the revaluation of the acquired deferred inventory to reflect the rates that will apply under currently enacted tax law when the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
No valuation allowance was necessary at December 31, 2015 or 2014 to reduce BancShares’ gross state deferred tax asset to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Under GAAP, the benefit of a position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return should be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained based onBancShares and its technical merit. The liability for unrecognized tax benefits was not material at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and changes in the liability were not significant during 2015, 2014 and 2013. BancShares does not expect the liability for unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly during 2016. BancShares recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to income tax matters in income tax expense, and the amounts recognized during 2015, 2014 and 2013 were not material.
During the third quarter of 2015, BancShares adjusted its net deferred tax asset as a result of reductions in the North Carolina corporate income tax rate that will become effective January 1, 2016. The lower corporate income tax rate resulted in a reduction in the deferred tax asset and an increase in income tax expense in 2015.
BancShares, its subsidiaries', and Bancorporation's federal income tax returns for 20122013 through 20142015 remain open for examination. Generally, the state jurisdictions in which BancShares files income tax returns are subject to examination for a period up to four years after returns are filed. BancShares state tax returns are currently under examination in Californiaexam by North Carolina for 2011 and 2012 and in FloridaMissouri for 2011 through 2013.2015.

The interest rate swap is used for interest rate risk management purposes and converts variable-rate exposure on outstanding debt to a fixed rate. The interest rate swap has a notional amount of $93.5 million, representing the amount of variable rate trust preferred capital securities issued during 2006 and still outstanding at the swap inception date. The interest rate swap hedges interest payments through June 2016 and requires fixed-rate payments by BancShares at 5.50 percent in exchange for variable-rate payments of 175 basis points above the three-month LIBOR, which is equal to the interest paid to the holders of the trust preferred capital securities. Settlement of the swap occurs quarterly. Atyears ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, collateral with a fair value of $2.0 million and $7.0 million, respectively, was pledged to secure the existing obligation under the interest rate swap.
For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss due to changes in the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument is included in other comprehensive income (loss), while the ineffective portion, representing the excess of the cumulative change in the fair value of the derivative over the cumulative change in expected future discounted cash flows on the hedged transaction, is recorded in the consolidated income statement. BancShares’ interest rate swap has been fully effective since inception. Therefore, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap have had no impact on net income. For

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY, DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS AND OTHER REGULATORY MATTERS
BancShares and FCB are required to meet minimum capital requirements set forth by regulatory authorities. Bank regulatory agencies approved regulatory capital guidelines (Basel III) aimed at strengthening existing capital requirements for banking organizations. Under Basel III, minimum requirements increase for both the quantity and quality of capital held by BancShares. Basel III includedinclude a new common equity Tier 1 ratio minimum of 4.50 percent, raised the minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital tominimum of 6.00 percent, requires a minimum total risk-based capital ratio minimum of 8.00 percent and requires a minimum Tier 1 leverage capital ratio minimum of 4.00 percent. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements may result in certain actions by regulators that could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements. A new capital conservation buffer, comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital, was also established above the regulatory minimum requirements. This capital conservation buffer will bewas phased in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625 percent of risk-weighted assets and will increase each subsequent year by an additional 0.625 percent until reaching its final level of 2.50 percent on January 1, 2019. The phase-in period for Basel III became effective for BancShares on January 1, 2015, with full compliance of all Basel III requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule, to be fully phased in by January 1, 2019.
Based on the most recent notifications from its regulators, FCB is well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. As of December 31, 2015,2016, BancShares and FCB met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject and were not aware of any conditions or events that would affect each entity's well-capitalized status.

BancShares and FCB had capital conservation buffers above minimum risk-based capital requirements of 5.85 percent and 5.21 percent, respectively, at December 31, 2016. The buffers exceed the 0.625 percent requirement and, therefore, result in assets.no limit on distributions.
At December 31, 2016, BancShares had no trust preferred capital securities included in Tier 1 capital, compared to $32.1 million at December 31, 2015. Effective January 1, 2015, 75 percent of BancShares' trust preferred capital securities were excluded from Tier 1 capital and the remaining 25 percent were phased out January 1, 2016 under Basel III requirements. Management continues to monitor developments and remains committed to managing capital levels in a prudent manner.
At December 31, 20152016 and December 31, 2014,2015, Tier 2 capital of BancShares included $6.0$3.0 million and $9.0$6.0 million, respectively, of qualifying subordinated debt acquired in the Bancorporation merger with a scheduled maturity date of June 1, 2018. Under current regulatory guidelines, when subordinated debt is within five years of its scheduled maturity date, issuers must discount the amount included in Tier 2 capital by 20 percent for each year until the debt matures.
BancShares has two classes of common stock—Class A common and Class B common. Shares of Class A common have one vote per share, while shares of Class B common have 16 votes per share.
During the fourth quarter of 2015,2016, our boardBoard approved a stock repurchase plan that provides for the purchase of up to 100,000200,000 shares of Class A common stock beginning onstock. The shares may be purchased from time to time from November 1, 2015 and continuing2016 through October 31, 2017. That authority replaced a similar plan in effect during the twelve months preceding November 1, 2016. The Board's action approving share purchases does not obligate BancShares to acquire any particular amount of shares and purchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Any shares of stock that are purchased will be canceled. As of December 31, 2015,2016, no purchases had occurred pursuant to thateither authorization.
The Board of Directors of FCB may approve distributions, including dividends, as it deems appropriate, subject to the requirements of the FDIC and the General Statutes of North Carolina, provided that the distributions do not reduce capital below applicable capital requirements. As of December 31, 2015,2016, the maximum amount of the dividend was limited to $902.6$928.7 million to preserve well-capitalized status. Dividends declared by FCB and paid to BancShares amounted to $90.1 million in 2016, $75.0 million in 2015 and $30.0 million in 2014 and $131.0 million in 2013.2014.
BancShares and FCB are subject to various requirements imposed by state and federal banking statutes and regulations, including regulations requiring the maintenance of noninterest-bearing reserve balances at the Federal Reserve Bank. Banks are allowed to reduce the required balances by the amount of vault cash. For 2015,2016, the requirements averaged $531.6$575.7 million.
NOTE U
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
To meet the financing needs of its customers, BancShares and its subsidiaries have financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and recourse obligations on mortgage loans sold. These instruments involve elements of credit, interest rate or liquidity risk.
FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to customers. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future liquidity requirements. Established credit standards control the credit risk exposure associated with these commitments. In some cases, BancShares requires that collateral be pledged to secure the commitment, including cash deposits, securities and other assets. At December 31, 2015,2016, BancShares had unused commitments totaling $7.95to extend credit that were $8.81 billion,, compared to $7.19$7.95 billion at December 31, 2014.2015. Total unfunded commitments relating to investments in affordable housing projects were $41.8$57.1 million and $16.8$41.8 million at December 31, 20152016 and December 31, 2014,2015, respectively, and are included in other liabilities on BancShares' Consolidated Balance Sheet. Affordable housing project investments were $85.6 million and $57.1 million at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and are included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Standby letters of credit are commitments guaranteeing performance of a customer to a third party. Those guaranteescommitments are primarily issued primarily to support public and private borrowing arrangements, and the fair value of those guaranteescommitments is not significant.material. To minimizemitigate its exposure,risk, BancShares’ credit policies govern the issuance of standby letters of credit. At December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, BancShares had standby letters of credit amounting to $77.9$83.8 million and $77.4$77.9 million,, respectively. The credit risk related to the issuance of these letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to clients and, therefore, these letters of credit are collateralized when necessary.
Pursuant to standard representations and warranties relating to residential mortgage loan sales sold on a non-recourse basis, contingent obligations exist for various events that may occur following the loan sale. If underwriting or documentation deficiencies are discovered at any point in the life of the loan or if the loan becomes nonperformingfails to perform per the terms of the loan purchase agreement, typically within 120180 days from the date of its sale, the investor may require BancShares to repurchase the loan or to repay a portion of the sale proceeds. Other liabilities included reserves of $3.0$3.0 million and $3.2 million as of December 31, 20152016 and 2014, respectively,2015 for estimated losses arising from these standard representation and warranty provisions.

BancShares has recorded a receivable from the FDIC totaling $4.1$4.2 million and $28.7$4.1 million as of December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively, for the expected reimbursement of losses on assets covered under the various loss shareshared-loss agreements. These loss share agreements impose certain obligations on us that, in the event of noncompliance, could result in the delay or disallowance of some or all of our rights under those agreements. Requests for reimbursement are subject to FDIC review and may be delayed or disallowed for noncompliance. The loss shareshared-loss agreements are subject to interpretation by both the FDIC and BancShares, and disagreements may arise regarding coverage of losses, expenses and contingencies.contingencies and requests for reimbursement may be delayed or disallowed for noncompliance. See Note H for additional information on the receivable from the FDIC regarding the early termination of five shared-loss agreements during 2016.
The loss shareshared-loss agreements for fivetwo FDIC-assisted transactions include provisions related to payments that may be owed to the FDIC at the termination of the agreements (clawback liability).The clawback liability represents a payment by BancShares to the FDIC if actual cumulative losses on acquired covered assets are lower than the cumulative losses originally estimated by the FDIC at the time of acquisition. The clawback liability is estimated by discounting estimated future payments and is recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a payable to the FDIC for loss shareunder the relevant shared-loss agreements. As of December 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, the clawback liability was $126.5$97.0 million and $126.5 million, respectively. See Note H for additional information on the clawback liability regarding the early termination of five shared-loss agreements during 2016.$116.5
BancShares entered into forward-starting advances with the FHLB of Atlanta in June 2016 to receive $200.0 million, respectively. of fixed rate long-term funding. There are two advances of $100.0 million each scheduled to fund in June 2018 with maturity dates of June 2026 and 2028.
BancShares and various subsidiaries have been named as defendants in legal actions arising from their normal business activities in which damages in various amounts are claimed. BancShares is also exposed to litigation risk relating to the prior business activities of banks from which assets were acquired and liabilities assumed in the various merger transactions. Although the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to such matters cannot be determined, in the opinion of management, any such liability will not have a material effect on BancShares’ consolidated financial statements.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 13, 2017, FCB announced that it entered into an agreement with the FDIC, as Receiver, to purchase certain assets and assume certain liabilities of Harvest Community Bank (HCB) of Pennsville, New Jersey. On January 14, 2017, HCB branches began operating as branches of FCB. As part of the agreement, FCB received $22.8 million in cash from the FDIC. HCB had total loans of $98.8 million and total deposits of $122.2 million at December 31, 2016. Due to the close proximity of the acquisition date and the date that BancShares' financial statements were issued, preliminary fair value estimates are not available.
