(a) As permitted by ASU 2019-04, which was adopted duringAt March 31, 2020, the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation made a one-time election to transfer municipalinvestment securities with a book value of $692 million from held to maturity are reported net of the related allowance for credit losses on investments. Prior periods were unadjusted due to available for sale.the modified retrospective application of ASU 2016-13.
(b) DuringAt January 1, 2020, the third quarteradoption of 2019,ASU 2016-13 resulted in an increase to the Corporation madeallowance for loan losses of $112 million and an increase to the allowance for unfunded commitments of $19 million for a changetotal increase to the ACLL of $131 million. A corresponding after tax decrease to common equity of $98 million was recorded along with a deferred tax asset of $33 million, included in accounting policyaccrued expenses and other liabilities. Prior periods were unadjusted due to offset derivative assets and liabilities and cash collateral with the same counterparty where it has a legally enforceable master netting agreement in place. The change had no impact on either earnings or equity. The Corporation believes that this change is a preferable methodmodified retrospective application of accounting as it provides a better reflection of the assets and liabilities on the face of the consolidated balance sheets. Adoption of this change was voluntary and has been adopted retrospectively with all prior periods presented herein revised.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the SEC and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally presented in accordance with GAAP have been omitted or abbreviated. The information contained inon the consolidated financial statements and footnotes in Associated Banc-Corp's 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K should be referred to in connection with the reading of these unaudited interim financial statements.
Note 1 Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Corporation and Parent Company for the periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheetssheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change include the determination of the allowance for loan losses,ACLL, goodwill impairment assessment, mortgage servicing rightsMSRs valuation, and income taxes. Management has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure.
Within the tables presented, certain columns and rows may not sum due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes.

As a result of the acquisition and other consolidations, a net of 147 branch locations were added.
The Huntington branchFirst Staunton acquisition constituted a business combination. The acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date. The determination of estimated fair values required management to make certain estimates that are subjective in nature and may require adjustments upon the availability of new information regarding facts and circumstances which existed at the date of acquisition (i.e., appraisals) for up to a year following the acquisition. The Corporation continues to review information relating to events or circumstances existing at the acquisition date. Management anticipates that this review could result in adjustments to the acquisition date valuation amounts presented herein but does not anticipate that these adjustments will be material.
The Corporation recorded approximately $15 million in goodwill related to the First Staunton acquisition during the first quarter of 2020. Goodwill created by the acquisition is not tax deductible. See Note 8 for additional information on goodwill, as well as the carrying amount and amortization of CDI assets related to the First Staunton acquisition.

Huntington Wisconsin Branch Acquisition
On June 14, 2019, the Corporation completed its acquisition of the Wisconsin branches of Huntington. The Corporation paid a 4% premium on acquired deposits. The conversion of the branches happened simultaneously with the close of the transaction and the acquisition expanded the Bank's presence into 13 new Wisconsin communities. As a result of the acquisition and other consolidations, a net of 14 branch locations were added.
The Huntington branch acquisition constituted a business combination. The acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date. The determination of estimated fair values required management to make certain estimates that are subjective in nature and may require adjustments upon the availability of new information regarding facts and circumstances which existed at the date of acquisition (i.e., appraisals) for up to a year following the acquisition.
The Corporation recorded approximately $7 million in goodwill related to the Huntington branch acquisition during the second quarter of 2019 and approximately $210,000 during the third quarter of 2019. Upon review of information relating to events and circumstances existing at the acquisition date, and in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Corporation remeasured select previously reported fair value amounts. The adjustment to goodwill was driven by an update that decreased the fair value of furniture acquired. Goodwill created by the acquisition is tax deductible.

Assumptions
Investment Securities: The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair value of significant assets and liabilities presentedinvestments on the balance sheet above.date of acquisition was determined utilizing an external third party broker opinion of the market value.
Loans: Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, amortization status and current discount rates. LoansFor the non-credit (interest and liquidity) premium, loans were grouped together according to similar characteristics when applying various valuation techniques. For the credit discount, loans were also grouped based on whether they had more than insignificant deterioration in credit since origination.
Core deposit intangible:CDIs: This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships with deposit customers. The fair value was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, net maintenance cost of the deposit base, alternative cost of funds, and the interest costs associated with customer deposits. The CDICDIs will be amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 years.
Other AcquisitionsTime Deposits: The fair value for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to the contractual interest rates on such time deposits.
OnFHLB Borrowings: July 25, 2019, the Corporation entered into an agreement to acquire Illinois-based First Staunton for cash considerationThe fair value of approximately $76 million. Upon completion of the transaction, the Bank expects to acquire approximately $350 million in loans, approximately $440 million in deposits, and 9 branches.

Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to U.S. GAAP and to general practice within the financial services industry. A discussion of these policies can be found in Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. ThereAs a result of adopting ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), there have been two changes to the Corporation's significant accounting policies since December 31, 2018,2019, which are described below.

LeasesInvestment Securities
The Corporation determines ifManagement measures expected credit losses on held to maturity securities on a leasecollective basis by major security type. Accrued interest receivable on held to maturity securities is present at the inception of an agreement. Operating leases are capitalized at commencement and are discounted using the Corporation’s FHLB borrowing rate for a similar term borrowing unless the lease defines an implicit rate within the contract. Leases with original terms of less than 12 months are not capitalized. For operating leases existing prior to January 1, 2019, the rate for the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019 was used.

Right-of-use assets represent the Corporation’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arisingexcluded from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assetsestimate of credit losses. The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and operating lease liabilities are recognized on the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. No significant judgments or assumptions were involvedreasonable and supportable forecasts and is included in developing the estimated operating lease liabilities as the Corporation’s operating lease liabilities largely represent future rental expenses associated with operating leases and the borrowing rates are based on publicly available interest rates.

The lease term includes optionsinvestment securities held to extend or terminate the lease. These options to extend or terminate are assessed on a lease-by-lease basis and adjustments are made to the right-of-use asset and lease liability if the Corporation is reasonably certain that an option will be exercised and will be expensed on a straight-line basis.

Derivative and Hedging Activities
Derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in the fair value recorded to earnings or accumulated other comprehensive income, as appropriate. On the date the derivative contract is entered into, the Corporation designates the derivative as a fair value hedge (i.e., a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability), a cash flow hedge (i.e., a hedge of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability), or a free-standing derivative instrument. For a derivative designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument and the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability are recognized in current period earnings as an increase or decrease to the carrying value of the hedged item on the balance sheet and in the related income statement account. Amounts within accumulated other comprehensive income are reclassified into earnings in the period the hedged item affects earnings. For a derivative designated as a free-standing derivative instrument, changes in fair value are reported in current period earnings. The free-standing derivative instruments included: interest rate risk management, commodity hedging, and foreign currency exchange solutions.
The Corporation is exposed to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that counterparties to the derivative contracts do not perform as expected. If a counterparty fails to perform, our counterparty credit risk is equal to the amount reported as a derivative asset on our balance sheet. The Corporation uses master netting arrangements to mitigate counterparty credit risk in derivative transactions. To the extent the derivatives are subject to master netting arrangements, the Corporation takes into account the impact of master netting arrangements that allow the Corporation to settle all derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty on a net basis, and to offset the net derivative position with the related cash collateral. In the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation elected to offset derivative transactions with the same counterparty on the consolidated balance sheets when a derivative transaction has a legally enforceable master netting arrangement and when it is eligible for netting. Derivative balances and related cash collateral are presentedmaturity, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Refer

For available for sale securities the Corporation evaluates whether any decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to Changewhich fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the
13

Table of Contents
security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses on investments is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses on investments is recognized in Accounting Policy sectionother comprehensive income.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses on investments are recorded as provision for, or reversal of, credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the available for sale security is uncollectible or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. Accrued interest receivable on available for sale debt securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

The level of the allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of an amount appropriate to provide for lifetime credit losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allocation methodology applied by the Corporation, designed to assess the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses, includes an allocation methodology, as well as management’s ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio into criticized loan categories. The allocation methodology focuses on evaluation of several factors, including but not limited to: evaluation of facts and issues related to specific loans, management's ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio using a dual risk rating system leveraging probability of default and loss given default, consideration of historical credit loss and delinquency experience on each portfolio category, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, the level of potential problem loans, the risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans, changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries, existing economic conditions and economic forecasts, the fair value of underlying collateral, and other qualitative and quantitative factors which could affect potential loan losses. The Corporation utilizes the Moody's Baseline economic forecast in the allowance model and applies that forecast over a reasonable and supportable period with reversion to historical losses. For additional detail on the reasonable and supportable period and reversion methodology, see Note 7 Loans. Potential problem loans are generally defined by management to include loans rated as substandard by management. Assessing these numerous factors involves significant judgment. The provision for loan losses is predominantly a function of the result of the methodology and other qualitative and quantitative factors used to determine the allowance for loan losses.

Management individually analyzes loans that do not share similar risk characteristics to other loans in the portfolio. Management has determined that commercial loan relationships that have nonaccrual status or commercial and retail loans that have had their terms restructured in a TDR meet this definition. Probable TDRs are loans the Corporation has reviewed individually to determine whether there is a high likelihood that the loans will default and will require restructuring in the near future. Probable TDRs could be classified as Pass, Special Mention, Substandard or Nonaccrual within this notethe Corporation's credit quality analysis depending on the specific circumstances surrounding the individual credits. Accrued interest receivable on loans is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

The allowance for additional discussion.
In addition,unfunded commitments leverages the same methodology utilized to measure the allowance for loan losses. The Corporation estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Corporation is exposed to changes incredit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the fair value of certain pools of prepayable fixed-rate assets due to changes in benchmark interest rates.Corporation. The Corporation uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in fair value on these instruments attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate. Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges involve the payment of fixed-rate amounts to a counterparty in exchange for the Corporation receiving variable-rate payments over the lifeestimate includes consideration of the agreements without the exchangelikelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of the underlying notional amount. For derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or lossexpected credit losses on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributablecommitments expected to the hedged risk are recognized in interest income.be funded over its estimated life.

The allowance for credit losses on held to maturity securities was approximately $61,000 at January 1, 2020, attributable entirely to the Corporation's municipal securities.
At January 1, 2020, the adoption of ASU 2016-13 resulted in an increase to the allowance for loan losses of $112 million and an increase to the allowance for unfunded commitments of $19 million for a total increase to the ACLL of $131 million. A corresponding after tax decrease to common equity of $98 million was recorded along with a portion of the Corporation’s derivative counterparties. Where legally enforceable, these master netting agreements give the Corporation, in the event of default by the counterparty, the right to liquidate securities and offset cash with the same counterparty. Under ASC 815-10-45-5, payables and receivables in respect of cash collateral received from or paid to a given counterparty can be offset against derivative fair values under a master netting arrangement. GAAP does not permit similar offsetting for security collateral. Prior to the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation elected to account for all derivatives’ fair values and related cash collateral on a gross basis on its consolidated balance sheets. In the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation elected to offset derivative assets and liabilities and cash collateral with the same counterparty where it has a legally enforceable master netting agreement in place. The change had no impact on either earnings or equity. The Corporation believes that this change is a preferable method of accounting as it provides a better reflection of the assets and liabilities on the face of the consolidated balance sheets. Adoption of this change is voluntary and has been adopted retrospectively with all prior periods presented herein being revised for comparability and as required. A reductiondeferred tax asset of $33 million was reflected between other assets as well as accrued expenses and other liabilities as of December 31, 2018 on the consolidated balance sheets.million.

Change in Accounting Estimate
During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation reassessed its estimate of the useful lives of certain fixed assets. The Corporation revised its original useful life estimate from 7 years to 12 years for furniture assets. This is considered a change in accounting estimate, per ASC 250-10, where adjustments should be made prospectively. The impact of this change in accounting estimate for third quarter of 2019 to net income in the consolidated statements of income and premises and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheets was approximately $230,000.

Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments

The FASB issued this amendment to clarify certain aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments. Within ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, the amendment allows an entity to designate partial-term fair value hedges of interest rate risk and measure the hedged item by using an assumed maturity, clarifies that an entity can start to amortize the hedged items basis adjustment in a fair value hedge, and it requires entities to disclose for fair value hedging relationships the carrying amounts of hedged assets and liabilities and the cumulative amount of fair value hedge basis adjustments. In addition, it permits a one-time election to reclassify securities that could be used in a hedge from held to maturity to available for sale without risk of tainting the remainder of the held to maturity portfolio. For entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2017-12 as of the issuance date of this Update, the effective date is as of the beginning of the first annual period beginning after the issuance date of this Update. For those entities, early adoption was permitted, including adoption on any date on or after the issuance of this Update.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation made a one-time election to transfer municipal securities with an amortized cost of $692 million from held to maturity to available for sale.
ASU-2018-15 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service ContractThe FASB issued an amendment which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The amendments in this Update require an entity (customer) in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense. The amendments also require the entity (customer) to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities were required to apply the amendment either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. Early adoption was permitted.1st Quarter 2019
The Corporation elected to early adopt this amendment using the prospective approach. No material impact on results of operation, financial position or liquidity.

ASU 2018-09 Codification ImprovementsThe FASB issued an amendment which affects a wide variety of Topics in the Codification. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. The amendments in this Update represent changes to clarify, correct errors in, or make minor improvements to the Codification. The amendments make the Codification easier to understand and easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The transition and effective date guidance is based on the facts and circumstances of each amendment. Some of the amendments in this Update did not require transition guidance and were effective upon issuance of this Update. However, many of the amendments in this Update did have transition guidance with effective dates for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. There are some conforming amendments in this Update that have been made to recently issued guidance that is not yet effective that may require application of the transition and effective date guidance in the original ASU.1st Quarter 2019No material impact on results of operations, financial position and liquidity.
ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842)The FASB issued an amendment to provide transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This amendment required lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: 1) a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and 2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. This amendment was effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Entities are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities could elect to apply. These practical expedients relate to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. Early adoption was permitted. ASU 2018-01 permits an entity to elect an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under Topic 842 land easements that exist or expired before the entity's adoption of Topic 842. ASU 2018-10 was issued as improvements and clarifications of ASU 2016-02 were identified. This Update provides clarification on narrow aspects of the previously issued Updates. ASU 2018-11 was issued to provide entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard under ASU 2016-02. ASU 2019-01 was issued to assist in determining the fair value of underlying asset by lessors, address the presentation to the statements of cash flows, and clarify transition disclosures related to Topic 250.1st Quarter 2019The Corporation has adopted this amendment utilizing a modified retrospective approach. At adoption, a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability were recognized on the consolidated balance sheets for $52 million and $56 million, respectively. See Note 18 for expanded disclosure requirements.

ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments


The FASB issued an amendment to replace the current incurred loss impairment methodology. Under the new guidance, entities will be required to measure expected credit losses by utilizing forward-looking information to assess an entity's allowance for credit losses.ACL. The guidance also requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances.

ASU 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value MeasurementThe FASB issued an amendment to add, modify, and remove disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on the FASB Concepts Statement "Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting",Reporting," including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendment is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption.

ASU 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill ImpairmentThe FASB issued an amendment to simplify the subsequent quantitative measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity will perform only step one of its quantitative goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and then recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. An entity will still have the option to perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative step one impairment test is necessary. This amendment is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Entities should apply the amendment prospectively.

The amendment also states that paragraphs 820-10-35-2A(g) and 820-10-35-18L are to include the phrase nonfinancial items accounted for as derivatives under Topic 815 to be consistent with the previous amendments to Section 820-10-35 that were made by ASU No. 2018-09, Codification Improvements. The amendment also clarifies that the disclosure requirements in Topic 320 apply to the disclosure requirements in Topic 942 for depository and lending institutions along with improving the understandability of the guidance relating to subtopic 470-50 and subtopic 820-10. Lastly, the amendment clarifies that the contractual term of a net investment in a lease determined in accordance with Topic 842 should be the contractual term used to measure expected credit losses under Topic 326 and that when an entity regains control of financial assets sold, an ACL should be recorded in accordance with Topic 326.1st Quarter 2020The Corporation has evaluated and determined it has an immaterial impact.
ASU 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial ReportingThe FASB issued an amendment to provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendment only applies to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship.1st Quarter 2020The Corporation has evaluated the impact of the Update and determined the expedients provided allow for simpler, more streamlined modifications to the financial instruments referencing LIBOR.

The FASB issued an amendment to clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. The amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. The amendments also clarify that for the purpose of applying paragraph 815-10-15-141(a) an entity should not consider whether, upon the settlement of the forward contract or exercise of the purchased option, individually or with existing investments, the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method in Topic 323 or the fair value option in accordance with the financial instruments guidance in Topic 825. An entity also would evaluate the remaining characteristics in paragraph 815-010-15-141 to determine the accounting for those forward contracts and purchased options.1st Quarter 2021The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact on its results of operations, financial position, and liquidity.

Note 4 Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share are calculated utilizing the two-class method. Basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share are calculated by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock awards (outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock awards) and common stock warrants..

Note 5 Stock-Based Compensation
The fair value of stock options granted is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, while the fair value of restricted stock awards is their fair market value on the date of grant. The fair values of stock options and restricted stock awards are amortized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the grants. For retirement eligible colleagues, whose employment meets the definitions under the 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan, expenses related to stock options and restricted stock awards are fully recognized on the date the colleague meets the definition of normal or early retirement. Compensation expense recognized is included in personnel expense inon the consolidated statements of income.
Assumptions are used in estimating the fair value of stock options granted. The weighted average expected life of the stock option represents the period of time stock options are expected to be outstanding and is estimated using historical data of stock option exercises and forfeitures. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected volatility is based on the implied volatility of the Corporation’s stock.

During the thirdfirst quarter of 2020, the Corporation sold $281 million of primarily prepayment sensitive mortgage-related securities at a gain of $6 million. Additionally, in February 2020, the Corporation sold $84 million of certain securities acquired in the First Staunton acquisition that did not fit the parameters of the Corporation's current investment strategy.
During the first quarter of 2019, the Corporation made a one-time election to transfer municipal securities with an amortized cost of $692sold $131 million from held to maturity to available for sale, as permitted by the adoption of ASU 2019-04 during the quarter. The Corporation sold shorter duration, lower yielding municipal securities that were included in the transfer for proceeds of $157 million at a gain of $3 million, with the proceeds being reinvested into longer duration, higher yielding held to maturity municipal securities. Additionally, during the first nine months of 2019, the Corporation sold $1.2 billion of taxable floating rate ABS, and shorter duration MBS, CMBS, and CMO Agency securities, with the proceeds utilized to pay down borrowings and to reinvest into higher yielding Agency related mortgage securities with slightly longer durations, repositioning the portfolio for a declining rate environment.
The Corporation also donated 42,039 shares of Visa Class B restricted shares to the Corporation's Charitable Remainder Trust during the second quarter of 2019, and the subsequent sale of those shares by the Trust resulted in an observable market price. As a result, the Corporation wrote up its remaining 77,000 Visa Class B restricted shares to fair value. Based on the existing transfer restriction and the uncertainty of covered litigation, the shares were previously carried at a zero cost basis.
During 2018, the Corporation executed a strategy to improve the yield on securities and increase interest income during the current and future calendar years. During the third quarter of 2018, the Corporation sold mortgage-related securities totaling approximately $108 million at a slight gain with all the proceeds reinvested into higher-yielding securities. The taxable equivalent yield of the securities sold was 3.08% while the reinvestment was at 3.51%. During the first six months of 2018, the Corporation also sold $40 million of lower yielding GNMA commercial mortgage-related securities.
In addition, on February 1, 2018, the date the Bank Mutual acquisition was completed, the Corporation sold Bank Mutual's entire $453 million securities portfolio. The Corporation originally reinvested the proceeds from the Bank Mutual securities portfolio into GNMA residential mortgage-related securities with the goal of reinvesting future cash flows into municipal securities. That strategy was completed during August 2018.borrowings.
Investment securities with a carrying value of approximately $3.0$2.1 billion and $2.6 billion at both September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 20182019, respectively, were required to be pledged to secure certain deposits or for other purposes as required or permitted by law.

At March 31, 2020, accrued interest receivable on held to maturity and available for sale securities totaled $14 million and $10 million, respectively, both which are included in interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. There was 0 interest income reversed for investments going into nonaccrual.
A security is considered past due once it is 30 days contractually past due under the terms of the agreement. At March 31, 2020, the Corporation had 0 past due held to maturity securities.

The allowance for credit losses on held to maturity securities was approximately $61,000 at March 31, 2020, attributable entirely to the Corporation's municipal securities, included in investment securities held to maturity, net, at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation also holds U.S. Treasury and residential mortgage-related securities issued by the U.S. government or a GSE which are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and, as a result, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded related to these securities.

The Corporation reviews the available for sale investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to monitor its exposure to other-than-temporary impairment.credit exposure. A determination as to whether a security’s decline in fair value is other-than-temporarythe result of credit risk takes into

consideration numerous factors and the relative significance of any single factor can vary by security. Some factors the Corporation may consider in the other-than-temporary impairment analysis includeincludes the length of time and extent to which the security has been in an unrealized loss position, changesthe change in security ratings,rating, financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, as well as the security and industry specific economic conditions.
Based on the Corporation’s evaluation, management does not believe any available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2019 represents an other-than-temporary impairmentMarch 31, 2020 represent credit deterioration as these unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and the current market conditions, and not credit deterioration.conditions. The unrealized losses reported for municipal securities relateat March 31, 2020 pertain to various state and local political subdivisions and school districts.districts, and have declined due to the decrease in overall
23

interest rates. The unrealized losses at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 for mortgage-related securities have also declined due to the decrease in overall interest rates. The U.S. Treasury 3 year and 5 year rates decreased by 90133 bp and 96132 bp, respectively, from December 31, 2018.2019. The Corporation does not intend to sell nor does it believe that it will be required to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stocks: The Corporation is required to maintain Federal Reserve Bank stock and FHLB stock as a member of both the Federal Reserve System and the FHLB, and in amounts as required by these institutions. These equity securities are “restricted” in that they can only be sold back to the respective institutions or another member institution at par. Therefore, they are less liquid than other marketable equity securities and their fair value is equal to amortized cost. At September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Corporation had FHLB stock of $129$145 million and $173$149 million, respectively. The Corporation had Federal Reserve Bank stock of $78 million at September 30, 2019both March 31, 2020 and $77 million at December 31, 2018.2019.
Equity Securities
Equity securities with readily determinable fair values: The Corporation's portfolio of equity securities with readily determinable fair values is primarily comprised of CRA Qualified Investment mutual funds.

Factors that are important to managing overall credit quality are sound loan underwriting and administration, systematic monitoring of existing loans and commitments, effective loan review on an ongoing basis, early identification of potential problems, and appropriate allowance for loan losses, allowance for unfunded commitments, nonaccrual, and charge off policies.
For commercial loans, management has determined the pass credit quality indicator to include credits exhibiting acceptable financial statements, cash flow, and leverage. If any risk exists, it is mitigated by the loan structure, collateral, monitoring, or control. For consumer loans, performing loans include credits performing in accordance with the original contractual terms. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Special mention credits have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the credit. Potential problem loans are considered inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged. These loans generally have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, which may jeopardize liquidation of the debt, and are characterized by the distinct possibility the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Lastly, management considers a loan to be impaired when it is probable the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms of the note agreement, including both principal and interest. Management has determined commercial loan relationships in nonaccrual status and commercial and consumer loan relationships in nonaccrual status or those with their terms restructured in a troubled debt restructuringTDR meet this impaired loan definition.the criteria to be individually evaluated. Commercial loans classified as special mention, potential problem, and nonaccrual are reviewed at a minimum on a quarterly basis, while pass and performing rated credits are generally reviewed on an annual basis or more frequently if the loan renewal is less than one year or if otherwise warranted.

All loans modified in a troubled debt restructuringTDR are evaluated for impairment. The nature and extent of the impairment of restructured loans, including those which have experienced a subsequent payment default, are considered in the determination of an appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses on loans.
The Corporation analyzes loans for classification as a probable TDR. This analysis includes identifying customers that are showing possible liquidity issues in the near term without reasonable access to alternative sources of capital. At adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Corporation had $114 million in loans meeting this classification compared to $138 million at March 31, 2020. Of the loans classified as probable TDRs at March 31, 2020, $112 million are within the oil and gas portfolio, while one loan losses.with a balance of $27 million, is in general commercial and business lending.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
The allowance for credit lossesACLL is comprised of the allowance for loan losses and the allowance for unfunded commitments. The level of the allowance for loan lossesACLL represents management’s estimate of an amount appropriate to provide for probableexpected lifetime credit losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. A main factor in the determination of the ACLL is the economic forecast. The Corporation utilized the Moody's baseline forecast, updated at the end of March 2020, in the allowance model. The forecast is applied over a 1 year reasonable and supportable period with immediate reversion to historical long run losses. The Corporation changed the reversion methodology applied from straight-line over 1 year to immediate reversion due to the uncertainty within the economic forecasts due to COVID-19. The allowance for unfunded commitments is maintained at a level believed by management to be sufficient to absorb estimated probableexpected lifetime losses related to unfunded credit facilities (including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit) and is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.. See Note 12 for additional information on the change in the allowance for unfunded commitments.

For performing loans, the difference between the estimated fair value of the loans and the principal outstanding is accreted over the remaining life of the loans.
In accordance with ASC 310-30, purchased credit-impaired loans are pooled by loan type and the difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected is referred to as the non-accretable difference. Further, any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan pools when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows. If a reasonable expectation on the amount or timing of such cash flows cannot be determined, accretion of the fair value discount for nonperforming loans will be recognized using the cost recovery method of accounting.
Changes in the accretable yield for loans acquired and accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30 were as follows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and for the year ended December 31, 2018:

For loans acquired, the fair value of purchased credit-impaired loans, on the acquisition date, was determined based on assigned risk ratings, expected cash flows and the fair value of loan collateral. The fair value of loans that were non-impaired was determined based on estimates of losses on defaults and other market factors. The Corporation's Huntington branch acquisition included 0 purchased credit-impaired loans.
At September 30, 2019, the Corporation had a total of approximately $15 million in net unaccreted purchase discount, of which approximately $14 million was related to performing loans and approximately $1 million was related to the Corporation's purchased credit-impaired loans. At December 31, 2018, the Corporation had a total of approximately $20 million in net unaccreted purchase discount, of which approximately $18 million was related to performing loans and approximately $2 million was related to the Corporation's purchased credit-impaired loans.

Note 8 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Goodwill is not amortized but is instead subject to impairment tests on at least an annual basis, and more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.
The Corporation conducted its most recent annual impairment testing in May 2019, utilizing a qualitative assessment. Factors that management considered in this assessment included macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance of the Corporation and each reporting unit (both current and projected), changes in management strategy, and changes in the composition or carrying amount of net assets. In addition, management considered the changes in both the Corporation’s common stock price and in the overall bank common stock index (based on the S&P 400 Regional Bank Sub-Industry Index), as well as the Corporation’s earnings per common share trend over the past year. Based on these assessments, management concluded that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value (including goodwill) for each reporting unit. Therefore, a step one quantitative analysis was not required. There have been no events since the May 2019 impairment testing that have changed the Corporation's impairment assessment conclusion. A qualitative analysis was performed during the first quarter of 2020 after COVID-19 was declared a national emergency, to determine if a triggering event had occurred. The Corporation determined a triggering event had not occurred, therefore, a step one quantitative analysis was not required during the first quarter of 2020. There were 0 impairment charges recorded in 20182019 or the first ninethree months of 2019.2020.
At both September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Corporation had goodwill of $1.2 billion.billion, of which $82 million was related to our insurance operations. There was an increase of $7$15 million during the secondfirst quarter of 20192020 related to the Huntington branch acquisition, and an adjustment of approximately $210,000 in the third quarter of 2019 driven by an update that decreased the fair value of furniture acquired.First Staunton acquisition.
Other Intangible Assets
The Corporation has other intangible assets that are amortized, consisting of CDI,CDIs, other intangibles (primarily related to customer relationships acquired in connection with the Corporation’s insurance agency acquisitions), and MSR.MSRs. At March 31, 2020, the Corporation had $19 million of other intangibles, compared to $20 million at December 31, 2019, of which $18 million was related to our insurance operations. For CDICDIs and other intangibles, changes in the gross carrying amount, accumulated amortization, and net book value were as follows:

Mortgage Servicing Rights
The Corporation sells residential mortgage loans in the secondary market and typically retains the right to service the loans sold. MSRMSRs are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income and assessed for impairment at each reporting date.
The Corporation evaluates its MSRMSRs asset for impairment at minimum on a quarterly basis. Impairment is assessed based on fair value at each reporting date using estimated prepayment speeds of the underlying mortgage loans serviced and stratifications based on the risk characteristics of the underlying loans (predominantly loan type and note interest rate). As mortgage interest

Table of Contents
rates fall, prepayment speeds are usually faster and the value of the MSRMSRs asset generally decreases, requiring additional valuation reserve. Conversely, as mortgage interest rates rise, prepayment speeds are usually slower and the value of the MSRMSRs asset generally increases, requiring less valuation reserve. A valuation allowance is established, through a charge to earnings, to the extent the amortized cost of the mortgage servicing rightsMSRs exceeds the estimated fair value by stratification. During the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation recognized temporary impairment of $9 million driven by decreasing interest rates. If it is later determined that all or a portion of the temporary impairment no longer exists for a stratification, the valuation is reduced through a recovery to earnings. An other-than-temporary impairment (i.e., recoverability is considered remote when

considering interest rates and loan pay off activity) is recognized as a write-down of the MSRMSRs asset and the related valuation allowance (to the extent a valuation allowance is available) and then against earnings. A direct write-down permanently reduces the carrying value of the MSRMSRs asset and valuation allowance, precluding subsequent recoveries. See Note 12 for a discussion of the recourse provisions on sold residential mortgage loans. See Note 13 which further discusses fair value measurement relative to the MSRMSRs asset.
A summary of changes in the balance of the MSRMSRs asset and the MSRMSRs valuation allowance is as follows:

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase ("Repurchase Agreements")
The Corporation enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Under these arrangements, the Corporation may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Corporation to repurchase the assets. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability on the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheets, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts (i.e., there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities). See Note 11 for additional disclosures on balance sheet offsetting.
The Corporation utilizes securities sold under agreements to repurchase to facilitate the needs of its customers. As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Corporation pledged agency mortgage-related securities with a fair value of $164$202 million as collateral for the repurchase agreements. Securities pledged as collateral under repurchase agreements are maintained with the Corporation's safekeeping agents and are monitored on a daily basis due to the market risk of fair value changes in the underlying securities. The Corporation generally pledges excess securities to ensure there is sufficient collateral to satisfy short-term fluctuations in both the repurchase agreement balances and the fair value of the underlying securities.

The remaining contractual maturity of the securities sold under agreements to repurchase inon the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 20182019 are presented in the following table:

Senior Notes 
In August 2018, the Bank issued $300 million of senior notes, due August 2021, and callable July 2021. The senior notes have a fixed coupon interest rate of 3.50% and were issued at a discount.
In November 2014, the Corporation issued $250 million of senior notes, due November 2019, and callable October 2019. The senior notes had a fixed coupon interest rate of 2.75% and were issued at a discount. On October 15, 2019, these notes were redeemed in full.
Subordinated Notes 
In November 2014, the Corporation issued $250 million of 10-year subordinated notes, due January 2025, and callable October 2024. The subordinated notes have a fixed coupon interest rate of 4.25% and were issued at a discount.
FHLB AdvancesFinance Leases
At September 30, 2019,In connection with the construction of a new branch in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, the Corporation had $2.9 billionentered into a 40-year land lease, maturing August 2059, with an option to purchase the underlying land in August 2022 for a fixed price of FHLB advances, down $697 million from December 31, 2018.$1.2 million. The finance lease has a fixed interest rate of 3.99%. See Note 18 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s leases.
At September 30, 2019, the Corporation had $2.4 billion of putable FHLB advances with a one-time option where the FHLB can call the advance prior to the contractual maturity. The contractual weighted average life to the put date of these advances was 0.36 years, with put dates ranging from 2019 through 2020. The weighted average life to contractual maturity on these advances was 5.42 years, with those dates ranging from 2022 through 2028. As of September 30, 2019, due to the lower rate environment, it is probable that none of these advances will be called by the FHLB and will extend to their final maturities.
The original contractual maturity or next put date of the Corporation's FHLB advances as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are presented in the following table:

Note 10 Derivative and Hedging Activities
The Corporation is exposed to certain risk arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Corporation principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Corporation manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Corporation enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Corporation's derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Corporation's known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Corporation's assets.
The contract or notional amount of a derivative is used to determine, along with the other terms of the derivative, the amounts to be exchanged between the counterparties. The Corporation is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to financial instruments. To mitigate the counterparty risk, contracts generally contain language outlining collateral pledging requirements for each counterparty. For non-centrally cleared derivatives, collateral must be posted when the market value exceeds certain mutually agreed upon threshold limits. Securities and cash are often pledged as collateral. The Corporation pledged $47$80 million of investment securities as collateral at September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, and pledged $36$57 million of investment securities as collateral at December 31, 2018.2019. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Corporation posted $15$36 million of cash collateral compared to $1$14 million at December 31, 2018.

2019.
Federal regulations require the Corporation to clear all LIBOR interest rate swaps through a clearing house, if possible. For derivatives cleared through central clearing houses the variation margin payments are legally characterized as daily settlements of the derivative rather than collateral. The Corporation's clearing agent for interest rate derivative contracts that are centrally cleared through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and the London Clearing House (LCH) settles the variation margin daily. As a result, the variation margin payment and the related derivative instruments are considered a single unit of account for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Depending on the net position, the fair value is reported in other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The daily settlement of the derivative exposure does not change or reset the contractual terms of the instrument.
Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Corporation is exposed to changes in the fair value of certain of its pools of prepayable fixed-rate assets due to changes in benchmark interest rates. The Corporation usesused interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in fair value on these instruments attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate. Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges involveinvolved the payment of fixed-rate amounts to a counterparty in exchange for the Corporation receiving variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount.
For derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk arewere recognized in interest income. During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Corporation terminated the outstanding fair value hedges.

Table of Contents
Derivatives to Accommodate Customer Needs
The Corporation also facilitates customer borrowing activity by entering into various derivative contracts which are designated as free standing derivative contracts. Free standing derivative products are entered into primarily for the benefit of commercial customers seeking to manage their exposures to interest rate risk, foreign currency, and commodity prices. These derivative contracts are not designated against specific assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets or forecasted transactions and, therefore, do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Such derivative contracts are carried at fair value in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in the fair value recorded as a component of capital markets, net, and typically include interest rate-related instruments (swaps and caps), foreign currency exchange forwards, and commodity contracts. See Note 11 for additional information and disclosures on balance sheet offsetting.
Interest rate-related instruments: The Corporation provides interest rate risk management services to commercial customers, primarily forward interest rate swaps and caps. The Corporation’s market risk from unfavorable movements in interest rates related to these derivative contracts is generally economically hedged by concurrently entering into offsetting derivative contracts. The offsetting derivative contracts have identical notional values, terms, and indices.
Foreign currency exchange forwards: The Corporation provides foreign currency exchange services to customers, primarily forward contracts. The Corporation's customers enter into a foreign currency exchange forward with the Corporation as a means for them to mitigate exchange rate risk. The Corporation mitigates its risk by then entering into an offsetting foreign currency exchange derivative contract.
Commodity contracts: Commodity contracts are entered into primarily for the benefit of commercial customers seeking to manage their exposure to fluctuating commodity prices. The Corporation mitigates its risk by then entering into an offsetting commodity derivative contract.
Mortgage Derivatives
Interest rate lock commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale and forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans are considered derivative instruments, and the fair value of these commitments is recorded in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets with the changes in fair value recorded as a component of mortgage banking, net.
Written and Purchased Options (Time Deposit)
Historically, the Corporation had entered into written and purchased option derivative instruments to facilitate an equity linked time deposit product (the “Power CD”), which the Corporation ceased offering in September 2013. The Power CD was a time deposit that provided the purchaser a guaranteed return of principal at maturity plus a potential equity return (a written option), while the Corporation received a known stream of funds based on the equity return (a purchased option). The written and purchased options are mirror derivative instruments, which are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents the total notional amounts and gross fair values of the Company’s derivatives, as well as the balance sheet netting adjustments on an aggregate basis as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018.2019. The derivative assets and liabilities are presented on a gross basis prior to the application of bilateral collateral and master netting agreements, but after the variation margin payments with central clearing organizations have been applied as settlement, as applicable. Total derivative assets and liabilities are adjusted to take into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements and cash collateral received or paid as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018.2019. The resulting net derivative asset and liability fair values are included in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

Note 11 Balance Sheet Offsetting
Interest Rate-Related Instruments, Commodity Contracts, and Foreign Exchange Forwards (“Interest, Commodity, and Foreign Exchange Agreements”)
The Corporation enters into interest rate-related instruments to facilitate the interest rate risk management strategies of commercial customers, commodity contracts to manage commercial customers' exposure to fluctuating commodity prices, and foreign exchange forwards to manage customers' exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates. The Corporation mitigates these risks by entering into equal and offsetting agreements with highly rated third-party financial institutions. The Corporation

is party to master netting arrangements with its financial institution counterparties that create single net settlements of all legal claims or obligations to pay or receive the net amount of settlement of the individual interest, commodity, and foreign exchange agreements. Collateral, usually in the form of investment securities and cash, is posted by the counterparty with net liability positions in accordance with contract thresholds. Derivatives subject to a legally enforceable master netting agreement are reported on a net basis, net of cash collateral, in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, on the face of the consolidated balance sheets. In the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation elected to offset derivative assets and liabilities and cash collateral with the same counterparty where it has a legally enforceable master netting agreement in place. See the derivatives section within Note 3 for additional information on the change in accounting policy and Note 10 for additional information on the Corporation’s derivative and hedging activities.
Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”)
The Corporation enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. These repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities (i.e., there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities). The right of set-off for a repurchase agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral would be used to settle the fair value of the repurchase agreement should the Corporation be in default (e.g., fails to make an interest payment to the counterparty). In addition, the Corporation does not enter into reverse repurchase

agreements; therefore, there is no such offsetting to be done with the repurchase agreements. See Note 9 for additional disclosures on repurchase agreements.
The following table presents the interest rate, commodity, and foreign exchange assets and liabilities subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement. The interest, commodity and foreign exchange agreements the Corporation has with its commercial customers are not subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement and are therefore excluded from this table:

Note 12 Commitments, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Matters
The Corporation utilizes a variety of financial instruments in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers and to manage its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include lending-related and other commitments (see below) as well as derivative instruments (see Note 10). The following is a summary of lending-related commitments:

(b) Interest rate lock commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale are considered derivative instruments and are disclosed in Note 10.
(c) The Corporation has established a liability of $3 million and $2 million at September 30, 2019for both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018, respectively,2019, as an estimate of the fair value of these financial instruments.

Lending-related Commitments
As a financial services provider, the Corporation routinely enters into commitments to extend credit. Such commitments are subject to the same credit policies and approval process accorded to loans made by the Corporation, with each customer’s creditworthiness evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to these financial instruments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Corporation upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Since a significant portion of commitments to extend credit are subject to specific restrictive loan covenants or may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flow requirements. An allowance for unfunded commitments is maintained at a level believed by management to be sufficient to absorb estimated probableexpected lifetime losses related to unfunded commitments (including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit). The following table presents a summary of the changes in the allowance for unfunded commitments:

The increase is a result of the Day 1 modified retrospective adjustment of $19 million for the adoption of ASU 2016-13. In addition, there was a $16 million increase to the provision for unfunded commitments totaled $23 million at September 30, 2019driven by the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic within the economic models used in the new expected credit loss methodology.

Lending-related commitments include commitments to extend credit, commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale, commercial letters of credit, and standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to customers at predetermined interest rates, as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contracts. Interest rate lock commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale and forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans are considered derivative instruments, and the fair value of these commitments isare recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation’s derivative and hedging activity is further described in Note 10. Commercial and standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Commercial letters of credit are issued specifically to facilitate commerce and typically result in the commitment being drawn on when the underlying transaction is consummated between the customer and the third party, while standby letters of credit generally are contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party.
Other Commitments
The Corporation invests in qualified affordable housing projects, federal and state historic projects, new market projects, and opportunity zone funds for the purpose of community reinvestment and obtaining tax credits and other tax benefits. Return on the Corporation's investment in these projects and funds comes in the form of the tax credits and tax losses that pass through to the Corporation and deferral or elimination of capital gain recognition for tax purposes. The aggregate carrying value of these investments at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 was $224$282 million, compared to $136$248 million at December 31, 2018,2019, included in investment in unconsolidated subsidiariestax credit and other investments on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation utilizes the proportional amortization method to account for investments in qualified affordable housing projects.
Under the proportional amortization method, the Corporation amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits. The Corporation recognized additional income tax expense attributable to the amortization of investments in qualified affordable housing projects of $14$6 million and $13$5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $4 million for both the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018.respectively. The Corporation's remaining investment in qualified affordable housing projects accounted for under the proportional amortization method totaled $210$268 million at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and $132$234 million at December 31, 2018.2019.
The Corporation’s unfunded equity contributions relating to investments in qualified affordable housing, federal and state historic projects, and new market projects are recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation’s remaining unfunded equity contributions totaled $112$148 million and $51$123 million at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively.
For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, the Corporation did not0t record any impairment related to qualified affordable housing investments.
The Corporation has principal investment commitments to provide capital-based financing to private and public companies through either direct investments in specific companies or through investment funds and partnerships. The timing of future cash requirements to fund such principal investment commitments is generally dependent on the investment cycle, whereby privately held companies are funded by private equity investors and ultimately sold, merged, or taken public through an initial offering, which can vary based on overall market conditions, as well as the nature and type of industry in which the companies operate. The Corporation also invests in loan pools that support CRA loans. The timing of future cash requirements to fund these pools is dependent upon loan demand, which can vary over time. The aggregate carrying value of these investments was $28 million and $26 million and $25 million at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively, included in investment in unconsolidated subsidiariestax credit and other investments on the consolidated balance sheets.

Legal Proceedings
The Corporation is party to various pending and threatened claims and legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business activities, some of which involve claims for substantial amounts. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcomes, the Corporation believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted against it in its currently outstanding matters and intends to continue to defend itself vigorously with respect to such legal proceedings. The Corporation will consider settlement of cases when, in management’s judgment, it is in the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders.
On at least a quarterly basis, the Corporation assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with all pending or threatened claims and litigation, utilizing the most recent information available. On a matter by matter basis, an accrual for loss
41

Table of Contents
is established for those matters which the Corporation believes it is probable that a loss may be incurred and that the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, each accrual is adjusted as appropriate to reflect any subsequent developments. Accordingly, management’s estimate will change from time to time, and actual losses may be more or less than the current estimate. For matters where a loss is not probable, or the amount of the loss cannot be estimated, no accrual is established.
Resolution of legal claims is inherently unpredictable, and in many legal proceedings various factors exacerbate this inherent unpredictability, including where the damages sought are unsubstantiated or indeterminate, it is unclear whether a case brought as a class action will be allowed to proceed on that basis, discovery is not complete, the proceeding is not yet in its final stages, the matters present legal uncertainties, there are significant facts in dispute, there are a large number of parties (including where it is uncertain how liability, if any, will be shared among multiple defendants), or there is a wide range of potential results.
The Corporation does not believe it is presently subject to any legal proceedings the resolution of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows.
Regulatory Matters
A variety of consumer products, including mortgage and deposit products, and certain fees and charges related to such products, have come under increased regulatory scrutiny. It is possible that regulatory authorities could bring enforcement actions, including civil money penalties, or take other actions against the Corporation and the Bank in regard to these consumer products. The Bank could also determine of its own accord, or be required by regulators, to refund or otherwise make remediation payments to customers in connection with these products. It is not possible at this time for management to assess the probability of a material adverse outcome or reasonably estimate the amount of any potential loss related to such matters.
Mortgage Repurchase Reserve
The Corporation sells residential mortgage loans to investors in the normal course of business. Residential mortgage loans sold to others are predominantly conventional residential first lien mortgages originated under the Corporation's usual underwriting procedures, and are most often sold on a nonrecourse basis, primarily to the GSEs. The Corporation’s agreements to sell residential mortgage loans in the normal course of business usually require certain representations and warranties on the underlying loans sold, related to credit information, loan documentation, collateral, and insurability. Subsequent to being sold, if a material underwriting deficiency or documentation defect is discovered, the Corporation may be obligated to repurchase the loan or reimburse the GSEs for losses incurred (collectively, “make whole requests”). The make whole requests and any related risk of loss under the representations and warranties are largely driven by borrower performance.
As a result of make whole requests, the Corporation has repurchased loans with principal balances of $2 million for both the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2018. The2019. There were no loss reimbursement and settlement claims paid for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and were negligible for the year ended December 31, 2018 were negligible.2019. Make whole requests during 20182019 and the first ninethree months of 20192020 generally arose from loans sold during the period of January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2018.2019. Since January 1, 2012, loans sold totaled $12.2$12.7 billion at the time of sale, and consisted primarily of loans sold to GSEs. As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, approximately $7.6$7.4 billion of these sold loans remain outstanding.


The balance in the mortgage repurchase reserve at the balance sheet date reflects the estimated amount of potential loss the Corporation could incur from repurchasing a loan, as well as loss reimbursements, indemnifications, and other settlement resolutions. The following summarizes the changes in the mortgage repurchase reserve for the nine months ended September 30, 2019was $1 million as of March 31, 2020 and for the year ended$795,000 as of December 31, 2018:2019.

The Corporation may also sell residential mortgage loans with limited recourse (limited in that the recourse period ends prior to the loan’s maturity, usually after certain time and / or loan paydown criteria have been met), whereby repurchase could be required if the loan had defined delinquency issues during the limited recourse periods. At September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, there were approximately $44 million and $47$39 million, respectively, of residential mortgage loans sold with such recourse risk. There have been limited instances and immaterial historical losses on repurchases for recourse under the limited recourse criteria.
The Corporation has a subordinate position to the FHLB in the credit risk on residential mortgage loans it sold to the FHLB in exchange for a monthly credit enhancement fee. The Corporation has not sold loans to the FHLB with such credit risk retention since February 2005. At September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, there were $48$42 million and $57$45 million, respectively, of such residential mortgage loans with credit risk recourse, upon which there have been negligible historical losses to the Corporation.

Note 13 Fair Value Measurements
Fair value represents the estimated price at which an orderly transaction to sell an asset or to transfer a liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e., an exit price concept).
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the Corporation’s more significant instruments measured on a recurring basis at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Investment Securities Available for Sale: Where quoted prices are available in an active market, investment securities are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available for the specific security, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows, with consideration given to the nature of the quote and the relationship of recently evidenced market activity to the fair value estimate, and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Lastly, in certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the estimated fair value, securities are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. To validate the fair value estimates, assumptions, and controls, the Corporation looks to transactions for similar instruments and utilizes independent pricing provided by third party vendors or brokers and relevant market indices. While none of these sources are solely indicative of fair value, they serve as directional indicators for the appropriateness of the Corporation’s fair value estimates. The Corporation has determined that the fair value measures of its investment securities are classified predominantly within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 6 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s investment securities.
Equity Securities with Readily Determinable Fair Values: The Corporation's portfolio of equity securities with readily determinable fair values is primarily comprised of CRA Qualified Investment mutual funds. Since quoted prices for the Corporation's equity securities are readily available in an active market, they are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 6 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s equity securities.
Residential Loans Held for Sale: Residential loans held for sale, which consist generally of current production of certain fixed-rate, first-lien residential mortgage loans, are carried at estimated fair value. Management has elected the fair value option to account for all newly originated mortgage loans held for sale, which results in the financial impact of changing market conditions being reflected currently in earnings as opposed to being dependent upon the timing of sales. Therefore, the continually adjusted values better reflect the price the Corporation expects to receive from the sale of such loans. The estimated

fair value is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics, which the Corporation classifies as a Level 2 fair value measurement.
Derivative Financial Instruments (Interest Rate-Related Instruments): The Corporation utilizes interest rate swaps to hedge exposure to interest rate risk and variability of fair value related to changes in the underlying interest rate of the hedged item. These hedged interest rate swaps are classified as fair value hedges. See Note 10 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s fair value hedges.
In addition, the Corporation offers interest rate-related instruments (swaps and caps) to service its customers’ needs, for which the Corporation simultaneously enters into offsetting derivative financial instruments (i.e., mirror interest rate-related instruments) with third parties to manage its interest rate risk associated with these financial instruments. The valuation of the Corporation’s derivative financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative and also includes a nonperformance / credit risk component (credit valuation adjustment). See Note 10 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s interest rate-related instruments.
The discounted cash flow analysis component in the fair value measurement reflects the contractual terms of the derivative financial instruments, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. More specifically, the fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) with the variable cash payments (or receipts) based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. Likewise, the fair values of interest rate options (i.e., interest rate caps) are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates fall below (or rise above) the strike rate of the floors (or caps), with the variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the floor (or cap) based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities.
The Corporation also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative financial instruments for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Corporation has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.
While the Corporation has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its interest rate-related derivative financial instruments fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments utilize Level 3 inputs, such as

estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. The Corporation has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative financial instruments. Therefore, the Corporation has determined that the fair value measures of its derivative financial instruments in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Derivative Financial Instruments (Foreign Currency Exchange Forwards): The Corporation provides foreign currency exchange services to customers. In addition, the Corporation may enter into a foreign currency exchange forward to mitigate the exchange rate risk attached to the cash flows of a loan or as an offsetting contract to a forward entered into as a service to its customer. The valuation of the Corporation’s foreign currency exchange forwards is determined using quoted prices of foreign currency exchange forwards with similar characteristics, with consideration given to the nature of the quote and the relationship of recently evidenced market activity to the fair value estimate, and is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 10 for additional disclosures regarding the Corporation’s foreign currency exchange forwards.
Derivative Financial Instruments (Commodity Contracts): The Corporation enters into commodity contracts to manage commercial customers' exposure to fluctuating commodity prices, for which the Corporation simultaneously enters into offsetting derivative financial instruments (i.e., mirror commodity contracts) with third parties to manage its risk associated with these financial instruments. The valuation of the Corporation’s commodity contracts is determined using quoted prices of the underlying instruments, and also includes a nonperformance / credit risk component (credit valuation adjustment). See Note 10 for additional disclosures regarding the Corporation’s commodity contracts.
The Corporation also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative financial instruments for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Corporation has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings.
While the Corporation has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its commodity derivative financial instruments fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments utilize Level 3 inputs, such as probability of default and loss given default of the underlying loans to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its

counterparties. The Corporation has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative financial instruments. Therefore, the Corporation has determined that the fair value measures of its derivative financial instruments in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Corporation utilized the following valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs:
Derivative Financial Instruments (Mortgage Derivative — Interest Rate Lock Commitments to Originate Residential Mortgage Loans Held for Sale): The fair value is determined by the change in value from each loan’s rate lock date to the expected rate lock expiration date based on the underlying loan attributes, estimated closing ratios, and investor price matrix determined to be reasonably applicable to each loan commitment. The closing ratio calculation takes into consideration historical experience and loan-level attributes, particularly the change in the current interest rates from the time of initial rate lock. The closing ratio is periodically reviewed for reasonableness and reported to the Associated Mortgage Risk Management Committee. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the closing ratio was 85%83%.
Derivative Financial Instruments (Mortgage Derivative — Forward Commitments to Sell Mortgage Loans): Mortgage derivatives include forward commitments to deliver closed-end residential mortgage loans into conforming Agency MBS or conforming Cash Forward sales. The fair value of such instruments is determined by the difference of current market prices for
45

Table of Contents
such traded instruments or available from forward cash delivery commitments and the original traded price for such commitments.     

The Corporation also relies on an internal valuation model to estimate the fair value of its forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans (i.e., an estimate of what the Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the forward delivery contract based on market prices for similar financial instruments), which includes matching specific terms and maturities of the forward commitments against applicable investor pricing available. While there are Level 2 and 3 inputs used in the valuation models, the Corporation has determined that the majority of the inputs significant in the valuation of both of the mortgage derivatives fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 10 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s mortgage derivatives.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the Corporation’s more significant instruments measured on a nonrecurring basis at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Commercial Loans Held for Sale: Commercial loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. The estimated fair value is based on a discounted cash flow analysis, which the Corporation classifies as a Level 2 nonrecurring fair value measurement.

OREO: Certain OREO, upon initial recognition, was re-measured and reported at fair value through a charge off to the allowance for loan losses based upon the estimated fair value of the OREO, less estimated selling costs. The fair value of OREO, upon initial recognition or subsequent impairment, was estimated using appraised values or a broker opinion of value, which the Corporation classifies as a Level 2 nonrecurring fair value measurement.


For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Corporation utilized the following valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs:
Impaired
Individually Evaluated Loans: The Corporation considersindividually evaluates loans when a commercial loan relationship is in nonaccrual status or when a commercial and consumer loan relationship has its terms restructured in a TDR or when a loan meets the Corporation's definition of a probable TDR. Prior to January 1, 2020, management considered a loan impaired when it iswas probable that the Corporation willwould be unable to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms of the note agreement, including both principal and interest. Management has determined that commercial and consumer loan relationships that have nonaccrual status or have had their terms restructured in a troubled debt restructuring meet this impaired loan definition. For individually evaluated impaired loans, the amount of impairment is based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans, or the estimated liquidity of the note. See Note 7 for additional information regarding the Corporation’s impairedindividually evaluated loans.
Mortgage Servicing Rights: MSRMSRs do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. While sales of MSRMSRs do occur, the precise terms and conditions typically are not readily available to allow for a “quoted price for similar assets” comparison. Accordingly, the Corporation utilizes an independent valuation from a third party which uses a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of its MSR.MSRs. The valuation model incorporates prepayment assumptions to project MSRMSRs cash flows based on the current interest rate scenario, which is then discounted to estimate an expected fair value of the MSR.MSRs. The valuation model considers portfolio characteristics of the underlying mortgages, contractually specified servicing fees, prepayment assumptions, discount rate assumptions, delinquency rates, late charges, other ancillary revenue, costs to service, and other economic factors. The Corporation periodically reviews and assesses the underlying inputs and assumptions used in the model. In addition, the Corporation compares its fair value estimates and assumptions to observable market data for MSR,MSRs, where available, and to recent market activity and actual portfolio experience. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, MSRMSRs are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Corporation uses the amortization method (i.e., lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value measured on a nonrecurring basis), not fair value measurement accounting, for its MSRMSRs assets.
The discounted cash flow analyses that generate expected market prices utilize the observable characteristics of the MSRMSRs portfolio, as well as certain unobservable valuation parameters. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s mortgage servicing rightsMSRs are the weighted average constant prepayment rate and weighted average discount rate. Significant increases (decreases) in either of those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.
These parameter assumptions fall within a range that the Corporation, in consultation with an independent third party, believes purchasers of servicing would apply to such portfolios sold into the current secondary servicing market. Discussions are held with members from Treasury and the Community, Consumer, and Business segment to reconcile the fair value estimates and the key assumptions used by the respective parties in arriving at those estimates. The Associated Mortgage Risk Management Committee is responsible for providing control over the valuation methodology and key assumptions. To assess the
46

Table of Contents
reasonableness of the fair value measurement, the Corporation also compares the fair value and constant prepayment rate to a value calculated by an independent third party on an annual basis. See Note 8 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s MSR.MSRs.
Equity Securities Without Readily Determinable Fair Values: The Corporation measures equity securities without readily determinable fair values at cost less impairment (if any), plus or minus observable price changes from an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, with such changes recognized in earnings. Included in equity securities without readily determinable fair values are 77,00077,996 Visa Class B restricted shares, 77,000 of which the Corporation received in 2008 as part of Visa's initial public offering, carried at fair value. Thesevalue after the Corporation donated 42,039 Visa Class B restricted shares to the Corporation's Charitable Remainder Trust during the second quarter of 2019, with the subsequent sale of those shares resulting in an observable market price after the shares were previously carried at a zero cost basis. During the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation also acquired 996 Visa Class B restricted shares from the acquisition of First Staunton, and those shares are currently carried at a zero cost basis due to the lack of an observable market price since the time of acquisition. The Visa Class B restricted shares are currently subject to certain transfer restrictions and will be convertible into Visa Class A shares upon final resolution of certain litigation matters involving Visa. Based on the current conversion factor, the Corporation expects 77,00077,996 shares of Visa Class B to convert to 124,956126,572 shares of Visa Class A upon the litigation resolution.
In its determination of the new carrying values upon observable price changes, the Corporation will adjust the prices if deemed necessary to arrive at the Corporation's estimated fair values. Such adjustments may include adjustments to reflect the different rights and obligations of similar securities and other adjustments. See Note 6 for additional disclosure regarding the Corporation’s equity securities without readily determinable fair values.

The following table presents the carrying value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values still held as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 that are measured under the measurement alternative and the related adjustments recorded during the periods presented for those securities with observable price changes.

Note 14 Retirement Plans
The Corporation has a noncontributory defined benefit retirement account plan, the RAP, covering substantially all employees who meet participation requirements. The benefits are based primarily on years of service and the employee’s compensation paid. Employees of acquired entities generally participate in the RAP after consummation of the business combinations. Any retirement plans of acquired entities are typically merged into the RAP after completion of the mergers, and credit is usually given to employees for years of service at the acquired institution for vesting and eligibility purposes.
The Corporation also provides legacy healthcare access to a limited group of retired employees from a previous acquisition in the Postretirement Plan. There are no other active retiree healthcare plans.
Bank Mutual was acquired on February 1, 2018. The Bank Mutual Pension Plan was merged into the RAP on December 31, 2018. Bank Mutual's Postretirement Plan was merged into the Corporation's Postretirement Plan during the first quarter of 2018. The reported figures in 2018 for both the Bank Mutual Pension Plan and the Corporation's Postretirement Plan only include eight months of Bank Mutual expense due to the timing of the Bank Mutual acquisition.
The Huntington branch acquisition closed on June 14, 2019,, and the employees gained as a result of the transaction became eligible to participate in the RAP on the same date, with their vesting service credit based on their prior hours of service with Huntington. See Note 2 for additional information on the Huntington branch acquisition.
49

The First Staunton acquisition closed on February 14, 2020, and the employees who met the required criteria as a result of the transaction became eligible to participate in the RAP on February 15, 2020, with their vesting service credit based on their prior hours of service with First Staunton. See Note 2 for additional information on the First Staunton acquisition.

Note 15 Segment Reporting
The Corporation utilizes a risk-based internal profitability measurement system to provide strategic business unit reporting. The profitability measurement system is based on internal management methodologies designed to produce consistent results and reflect the underlying economics of the units. Certain strategic business units have been combined for segment information reporting purposes where the nature of the products and services, the type of customer and the distribution of those products

and services are similar. The 3 reportable segments are Corporate and Commercial Specialty; Community, Consumer, and Business; and Risk Management and Shared Services. The financial information of the Corporation’s segments has been compiled utilizing the accounting policies described in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 3 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, with certain exceptions. The more significant of these exceptions are described herein.
The reportable segment results are presented based on the Corporation's internal management accounting process. The management accounting policies and processes utilized in compiling segment financial information are highly subjective and, unlike financial accounting, are not based on authoritative guidance similar to U.S. GAAP. As a result, reported segments and the financial information of the reported segments are not necessarily comparable with similar information reported by other financial institutions. Furthermore, changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and procedures may result in changes in previously reported segment financial data. Additionally, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities.
To determine financial performance of each segment, the Corporation allocates FTP assignments, the provision for credit losses, certain noninterest expenses, income taxes, and equity to each segment. Allocation methodologies are subject to periodic adjustment as the internal management accounting system is revised, the interest rate environment evolves, and business or product lines within the segments change. Also, because the development and application of these methodologies is a dynamic process, the financial results presented may be periodically reviewed.
The Corporation allocates net interest income using an internal FTP methodology that charges users of funds (assets) and credits providers of funds (liabilities, primarily deposits) based on the maturity, prepayment and / or repricing characteristics of the assets and liabilities. The net effect of this allocation is offset in the Risk Management and Shared Services segment to

ensure consolidated totals reflect the Corporation's net interest income. The net FTP allocation is reflected as net intersegment income (expense) in the accompanying tables.
A credit provision is allocated to segments based on the expected long-term annual net charge off rates attributable to the credit risk of loans managed by the segment during the period. In contrast, the level of the consolidated provision for credit losses is determined based on an incurred lossallowance model using the methodologies described in the Corporation’s 2018 AnnualNote 3 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-K to assess the overall appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses.10-Q. The net effect of the credit provision is recorded in Risk Management and Shared Services. Indirect expenses incurred by certain centralized support areas are allocated to segments based on actual usage (for example, volume measurements) and other criteria. Certain types of administrative expense and bank-wide expense accruals (including amortization of CDICDIs and other intangible assets associated with acquisitions)acquisitions and acquisition-related costs) are generally not allocated to segments. Income taxes are allocated to segments based on the Corporation’s estimated effective tax rate, with certain segments adjusted for any tax-exempt income or non-deductible expenses. Equity is allocated to the segments based on regulatory capital requirements and in proportion to an assessment of the inherent risks associated with the business of the segment (including interest, credit and operating risk).
A brief description of each business segment is presented below. A more in-depth discussion of these segments can be found in the Segment Reporting footnote in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Corporate and Commercial Specialty segment serves a wide range of customers including larger businesses, developers, not-for-profits, municipalities, and financial institutions.institutions by providing lending and deposit solutions as well as the support to deliver, fund, and manage such banking solutions. In addition, this segment provides a variety of investment and fiduciary products and services to individuals and small to mid-sized businesses. The Community, Consumer, and Business segment serves individuals, as well as small and mid-sized businesses.businesses by providing lending, deposit solutions, and ancillary financial services, primarily insurance and risk consulting. The Risk Management and Shared Services segment includes key shared operational functions and also includes residual revenue and expenses, representing the difference between actual amounts incurred and the amounts allocated to operating segments, including interest rate risk residuals (FTP mismatches) and credit risk and provision residuals (long-term credit charge mismatches). All Bank MutualFirst Staunton and Huntington branch acquisition related costs are included in the Risk Management and Shared Services segment.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation reassigned goodwill of approximately $4 million to the Corporate and Commercial Specialty segment from the Community, Consumer and Business segment as a result of a reorganization of the investment and fiduciary businesses. The goodwill reassigned was attributable to the Corporation's acquisition of Whitnell & Co. in 2017. Also effective in the first quarter of 2020, the marketing business unit, formerly part of the Risk Management and Shared Services segment, was reorganized under the Community, Consumer and Business segment.

Below is a listing of performance obligations for the Corporation's main revenue streams:
Revenue StreamNoninterest income in-scope of Topic 606
Insurance commissions and feesThe Corporation's insurance revenue has two distinct performance obligations. The first performance obligation is the selling of the policy as an agent for the carrier. This performance obligation is satisfied upon binding of the policy. The second performance obligation is the ongoing servicing of the policy which is satisfied over the life of the policy. For employee benefits, the payment is typically received monthly. For property and casualty, payments can vary, but are typically received at, or in advance, of the policy period.
Service charges and deposit account feesService charges onand deposit accountsaccount fees consist of monthly service fees (i.e. business analysisanalyzed fees and consumer service charges) and other deposit account related fees. The Corporation's performance obligation for monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Other deposit account related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Corporation's performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time. Payment for service charges onand deposit accounts isaccount fees are primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.
Card-based fees(a)
Card-based fees are primarily comprised of debit and credit card income, ATM fees, and merchant services income. Debit and credit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Corporation's debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks. ATM and merchant fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Corporation's performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.
Trust and asset management fees(b)
Trust and asset management income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and other customer assets. The Corporation's performance obligation is generally satisfied over time and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon the month-end market value of the assets under management and the applicable fee rate. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to the customers’ accounts. The Corporation's performance obligation for these transactional-based services is generally satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time (i.e., as incurred). Payment is received shortly after services are rendered.
Brokerage commissions and fees(b)
Brokerage commissions and fees primarily consist of investment advisory, brokerage, retirement services, and annuities. The Corporation's performance obligation for investment advisory services and retirement services is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the services are provided. The performance obligation for annuities is satisfied upon sale of the annuity, and therefore, the related revenue is primarily recognized at the time of sale. Payments for these services are typically received immediately or in advance of the service.
(a) Certain card-based fees are out-of-scope of Topic 606.
(b) Trust and asset management fees and brokerage commissions and fees are included in wealth management fees.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
The Corporation's contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, we allocate revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We generally determine standalone selling prices based on the expected cost plus margin.
Practical Expedients
We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.
Using the practical expedient, for contracts with a term of one year or less, the Corporation recognizes incremental costs of obtaining those contracts as an expense when incurred.

Note 18 Leases

The Corporation has operating leases for retail and corporate offices, land, and equipment.

The Corporation also has a finance lease for land.
These operating leases have original terms of 1 year or longer with remaining maturities up to 43 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term. An analysis of the lease options has been completed and any purchase options or optional periods that the Corporation is reasonably likely to extend have been included in the capitalization.

The discount rate used to capitalize the operating leases is the Corporation's FHLB borrowing rate on the date of lease commencement. When determining the rate to discount specific lease obligations, the repayment period and term are considered.

As of September 30,March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, additional operating leases, primarily retail and corporate offices, that have not yet commenced total $18 million and $16 million, respectively. In addition, finance leases that had not yet commenced at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 total $2 million. These operating and finance leases will commence between JanuaryApril 2020 and JulyOctober 2023 with lease terms of 32 years to 6 years.

Practical Expedients
The Corporation elected several practical expedients made available by the FASB. Due to materiality, the Corporation elected not to restate comparative periods upon adoption of the new guidance. In addition, the Corporation elected the package of practical expedients whereby the Corporation did not reassess (i) whether existing contracts are, or contain, leases and (ii) lease classification for existing leases. Lastly, the Corporation elected not to separate lease and nonlease components in determining the consideration in the lease agreement.

Overview
The following discussion and analysis is presented to assist in the understanding and evaluation of the Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations. It is intended to complement the unaudited consolidated financial statements, footnotes, and supplemental financial data appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction therewith.

On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States declared a national emergency in response to the global pandemic caused by COVID-19 which has led to stay-at-home orders around the country, including the three state footprint the Corporation does business. On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted to provide economic stimulus to impacted areas of the country. In response to this unprecedented declaration, the Corporation took the following actions to protect and support its customers, colleagues and communities:
Customers:
The Corporation utilized the PPP to originate SBA loans designated to help businesses maintain their workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic.
For consumers, the Corporation suspended certain transaction and late fees, initiated consumer and mortgage loan payment deferral and credit card payment relief programs, and suspended foreclosures and repossessions.
For small businesses, the Corporation initiated loan payment deferral and credit card payment relief programs and suspended certain loan late fees.

Colleagues:
Associated was one of the first banks to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic by transitioning to primarily online, mobile, and drive-thru service, with its lobbies available by appointment only, and suspending operations at 29 branches without drive-thrus.

About 3,200 colleagues (68% of the Corporation's workforce) are working from home.

Associated is continuing to pay colleagues whose work is affected by changes to its services and is offering disaster relief payments to non-exempt employees whose work requires them to be in the Corporation's facilities.

Table of Contents
The Corporation has also expanded its leave policies to accommodate personal or family health circumstances caused by COVID-19.

Communities:
The Corporation donated $150,000 to local United Way chapters in Wisconsin, Illinois and Minnesota to fund community-based programs.

The Corporation made a commitment of $50,000 each to the Give to MKE Responds Fund, the Chicago Community COVID-19 Response Fund and the Minnesota Disaster Recovery Fund (MDRF) to assist with housing and small business relief efforts.

See Recent Developments for an update on the current status of the Corporation's COVID-19 Relief Program efforts.

Notable Contributions to the Change in Net Interest Income

Net interest income in the consolidated statements of income (which excludes the fully tax-equivalent adjustment) was $636 million for the first nine months of 2019 compared to $656 million for the first nine months of 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower prepayments and accretion related to the Bank Mutual acquisition. The decrease was additionally driven by compression in LIBOR rates outpacing reductions in funding costs. See sections Interest Rate Risk and Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk for a discussion of interest rate risk and market risk.

• Net interest income on the consolidated statements of income (which excludes the fully tax-equivalent adjustment) was $203 million for the first three months of 2020 compared to $216 million for the first three months of 2019. Fully tax-equivalent net interest income of $648$207 million for the first ninethree months of 20192020 was $18$12 million, or 3%6%, lower than the first ninethree months of 2018.2019.

Accreted income from the acquired Bank Mutual and Huntington loan portfolios contributed $5 million to net interest income for the first nine months of 2019 compared to $21 million of Bank Mutual accretion for the first nine months of 2018, of which approximately $8 million of the accreted income was from loan prepayments and other adjustments.

• Average earning assets of $30.2$29.2 billion for the first ninethree months of 20192020 were $110 million higher$1.2 billion, or 4%, lower than the first ninethree months of 2018.2019. Average loans of $23.2$23.3 billion for the first ninethree months of 20192020 increased $548$205 million, or 2%1%, from the first ninethree months of 2018,2019, primarily due to a $475$212 million, or 4%, increase in commercial real estate loans, while taxable and tax-exempt investmentsinvestment securities decreased $531 million,$1.5 billion, or 8%30%, as the Corporation used its investment portfolio as a source of funds seekingin 2019 to reposition itsthe balance sheet for a declining rate environment.

On average, interest-bearing deposits increased $990decreased $789 million, or 5%4%, primarily driven by increasesdecreases in higher cost deposits such as network, time and savings deposits.money market accounts. Long-term funding increased $245decreased $246 million or 31%, primarily due to the issuanceredemption of $300$250 million of senior bank notes in August 2018. FHLB Advances decreased $906 million, or 22%, from the first nine months of 2018.October 2019.

• The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 1.50%1.06% for the first ninethree months of 2019,2020, which was 4245 bp higherlower than the first ninethree months of 2018.2019. The increasedecrease was primarily due to a 4251 bp increasedecrease in the cost of average interest-bearing deposits to 1.29% and a 48 bp increase in the cost of FHLB advances to 2.24%0.79%, both primarily due to the Federalfederal funds rate increases in 2018.decreases that occurred since the first quarter of 2019.
The Federal Reserve lowered the Federal Fundfederal funds target interest rate twice in March 2020, totaling 50150 bp, during the third quarter of 2019 to a range of 1.75%0.00% to 2.00%0.25%, compared to a range of 2.00%2.25% to 2.25%2.50% at the end of the thirdfirst quarter of 2018.

The timing and magnitude of any such future rate changes are uncertain and will depend on domestic and global economic conditions.2019.
Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses is predominantly a function of the Corporation’s reserving methodology and judgments as to other qualitative and quantitative factors used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses and the allowance for unfunded commitments, which focuses on changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio, changes in levels of impairedindividually evaluated and other nonaccrual loans, historical losses and delinquencies in each portfolio category, the level of loans sold or transferred to held for sale, the risk inherent in specific loans, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries, existing economic conditions and economic forecasts, the fair value of underlying collateral, and other factors which could affect potential credit losses. The forecast the Corporation used for March 31, 2020 was the Moody's baseline scenario from March 27, 2020 over a 1 year reasonable and supportable period with immediate reversion to historical losses. See additional discussion under the sections titled, Loans, Credit Risk, Nonperforming Assets, and Allowance for Credit Losses.
The provision for credit losses (which includes the provision for loan losses and the provision for unfunded commitments) for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $16 million, compared to negative $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Credit Risk
An active credit risk management process is used for commercial loans to ensure that sound and consistent credit decisions are made. Credit risk is controlled by detailed underwriting procedures, comprehensive loan administration, and periodic review of borrowers’ outstanding loans and commitments. Borrower relationships are formally reviewed and graded on an ongoing basis for early identification of potential problems. Further analysis by customer, industry, and geographic location are performed to monitor trends, financial performance, and concentrations. See Note 7 Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements, for additional information on managing overall credit quality.
The loan portfolio is widely diversified by types of borrowers, industry groups, and market areas within the Corporation's branch footprint. Significant loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to numerous borrowers engaged in similar activities that would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, no significant concentrations existed in the Corporation’s portfolio in excess of 10% of total loans.
Commercial and business lending: The commercial and business lending classification primarily includes commercial loans to large corporations, middle market companies, small businesses, and lease financing.

The credit risk related to commercial loans is largely influenced by general economic conditions and the resulting impact on a borrower’s operations or on the value of underlying collateral, if any. Currently, a higher risk segment of the commercial and business lending portfolio is loans to borrowers supporting oil and gas exploration and production, which are further discussed under oil and gas lending below.
Oil and gas lending: The Corporation provides reserve based loans to oil and gas exploration and production firms. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the oil and gas portfolio was comprised of 4435 credits, totaling $582$466 million of outstanding balances, which

represents less than 3%2% of the Corporation's total loans. The decrease in balances from March 31, 2019 continue to be driven by a purposeful reduction in exposure to the Corporation's higher-leveraged borrowers which is substantially complete.borrowers.

Credit risk is managed in a similar manner to commercial and business lending by employing sound underwriting guidelines, lending primarily to borrowers in local markets and businesses, periodically evaluating the underlying collateral, and formally reviewing the borrower’s financial soundness and relationship on an ongoing basis.
Real estate construction: Real estate construction loans are primarily short-term or interim loans that provide financing for the acquisition or development of commercial income properties, multi-family projects or residential development, both single family and condominium. Real estate construction loans are made to developers and project managers who are generally well known to the Corporation and have prior successful project experience. The credit risk associated with real estate construction loans is generally confined to specific geographic areas but is also influenced by general economic conditions. The Corporation controls the credit risk on these types of loans by making loans in familiar markets to developers, reviewing the merits of individual projects, controlling loan structure, and monitoring project progress and construction advances.

The remaining real estate construction portfolio is spread over various other property types, none of which exceed 2% of total loans.
The Corporation’s current lending standards for commercial real estate and real estate construction lending are determined by property type and specifically address many criteria, including: maximum loan amounts, maximum LTV, requirements for pre-leasing and / or presales, minimum borrower equity, and maximum loan-to-cost. Currently, the maximum standard for LTV is 80%, with lower limits established for certain higher risk types, such as raw land that has a 50% LTV maximum. The Corporation’s LTV guidelines are in compliance with regulatory supervisory limits. In most cases, for real estate construction loans, the loan amounts include interest reserves, which are built into the loans and sized to fund loan payments through construction and lease up and / or sell out.
Residential mortgages: Residential mortgage loans are primarily first lien home mortgages with a maximum loan-to-collateral value without credit enhancement (e.g. private mortgage insurance) of 80%. The residential mortgage portfolio is focused primarily in the Corporation's three-state branch footprint, with approximately 88%87% of the outstanding loan balances in the Corporation's branch footprint at September 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The majority of the on balance sheet residential mortgage portfolio consists of hybrid, adjustable rate mortgage loans with initial fixed rate terms of 3, 5, 7, or 10 years.
The Corporation generally retains certain fixed-rate residential real estate mortgages in its loan portfolio, including retail and private banking jumbo mortgages and CRA-related mortgages. As part of management’s historical practice of originating and servicing residential mortgage loans, generally the Corporation’s 30 year, agency conforming, fixed-rate residential real estate mortgage loans have been sold in the secondary market with servicing rights retained. Subject to management’s analysis of the

current interest rate environment, among other market factors, the Corporation may choose to retain 30 year mortgage loan production on its consolidated balance sheets.sheet. During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation sold approximately $240 million of portfolio mortgages and $30 million in nonaccrual and performing restructured loans as part of the Corporation's deleveraging strategy which enabled the Corporation to pay down higher cost funding. The sale also reduced interest rate risk by lowering the Corporation's asset sensitivity and freed up capital in advance of the adoption of CECL in the first quarter of 2020.2020, the Corporation transferred $200 million of portfolio residential mortgages to residential loans held for sale related to a portfolio loan sale that settled in April 2020, in order to reduce the Corporation's exposure to prepayment risk in the current low risk environment. See section Loans for additional information on loans.

The Corporation’s underwriting and risk-based pricing guidelines for residential mortgage loans include minimum borrower FICO and maximum LTV of the property securing the loan. Residential mortgage products generally are underwritten using FHLMC and FNMA secondary marketing guidelines.
Home equity: Home equity consists of both home equity lines of credit and closed-end home equity loans. The Corporation’s credit risk monitoring guidelines for home equity is based on an ongoing review of loan delinquency status, as well as a quarterly review of FICO score deterioration and property devaluation. The Corporation does not routinely obtain appraisals on performing loans to update LTV ratios after origination; however, the Corporation monitors the local housing markets by reviewing the various home price indices and incorporates the impact of the changing market conditions in its ongoing credit monitoring process. For junior lien home equity loans, the Corporation is unable to track the performance of the first lien loan if it does not own or service the first lien loan. However, the Corporation obtains a refreshed FICO score on a quarterly basis and monitors this as part of its assessment of the home equity portfolio.
The Corporation’s underwriting and risk-based pricing guidelines for home equity lines and loans consist of a combination of both borrower FICO and the original cumulative LTV against the property securing the loan. Currently,Subsequent to the Corporation's policy setsend of the quarter, in the volatile economic environment, the Corporation reduced its exposure by reducing its maximum acceptable LTV aton home equity lines of credit from 90% andto 80%, among other changes, while maintaining the minimum acceptable FICO at 670. The Corporation's current home equity line of credit offering is priced based on floating rate indices and generally allows 10 years of interest-only payments followed by a 20-year amortization of the outstanding balance. The Corporation has significantly curtailed its offerings of fixed-rate, closed-end home equity loans. The loans in the Corporation's portfolio generally have an original term of 20 years with principal and interest payments required. During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation sold approximately $3 million of home equity nonaccrual and performing restructured loans as part of the Corporation's deleveraging strategy which enabled the Corporation to pay down higher cost funding. The sale also reduced interest rate risk by lowering the Corporation's asset sensitivity and freed up capital in advance of the adoption of CECL in the first quarter of 2020. See section Loans for additional information on loans.

Other consumer: Other consumer consists of student loans, short-term and other personal installment loans and credit cards. The Corporation had $142$130 million and $162$136 million of student loans at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively, the majority of which are government guaranteed. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the passage of the CARES Act, government guaranteed student loans have been placed on an administrative forbearance through September 30, 2020. Credit risk for non-government guaranteed student loans, short-term, personal installment loans, and credit cards is influenced by general economic conditions, the characteristics of individual borrowers, and the nature of the loan collateral. Risks of loss are generally on smaller average balances per loan spread over many borrowers. Once charged off, there is usually less opportunity for recovery of these smaller consumer loans. Credit risk is primarily controlled by reviewing the creditworthiness of the borrowers, monitoring payment histories, and taking appropriate collateral and guarantee positions. The student loan portfolio is in run-off and no new student loans are being originated.

(a) During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation sold $33 million of residential mortgages and home equity loans, of which $21 million were performing restructured loans, $12 million were nonaccrual loans, and approximately $200,000 were accruing loans 30-89 days past due. Of the $12 million nonaccrual loans, $7 million were restructured loans.
Nonaccrual loans: Nonaccrual loans are considered to be one indicator of potential future loan losses. See Note 7 Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements for additional nonaccrual loan disclosures. See also sections Credit Risk and Allowance for Credit Losses. During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation sold $12 million of nonaccrual loans, of which $11 million were residential mortgage loans and $1 million were home equity loans, as part of the Corporation's deleveraging strategy which enabled the Corporation to pay down higher cost funding. The sale also reduced interest rate risk by lowering the Corporation's asset sensitivity and freed up capital in advance of the adoption of CECL in the first quarter of 2020.
Accruing loans past due 90 days or more: Loans past due 90 days or more but still accruing interest are classified as such where the underlying loans are both well secured (the collateral value is sufficient to cover principal and accrued interest) and are in the process of collection.
Restructured loans: Loans are considered restructured loans if concessions have been granted to borrowers that are experiencing financial difficulty. See also Note 7 Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements for additional restructured loans disclosures. During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation sold $21 million of performing restructured loans, of which $18 million were residential mortgage loans and $3 million were home equity loans, as part of the Corporation's deleveraging strategy which enabled the Corporation to pay down higher cost funding. The sale also reduced interest rate risk by lowering the Corporation's asset sensitivity and freed up capital in advance of the adoption of CECL in the first quarter of 2020.
Potential problem loans: The level of potential problem loans is another predominant factor in determining the relative level of risk in the loan portfolio and in determining the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses. Potential problem loans are generally defined by management to include loans rated as substandard by management but that are not considered impairedindividually evaluated (i.e., nonaccrual loans and accruing troubled debt restructurings)TDRs); however, there are circumstances present to create doubt as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present repayment terms. The decision of management to include performing loans in potential problem loans does not necessarily mean that the Corporation expects losses to occur, but that management recognizes a higher degree of risk associated with these loans.

OREO: Management actively seeks to ensure OREO properties held are monitored to minimize the Corporation’s risk of loss. OREO properties increased $8$1 million, or 64%7%, from December 31, 2018,2019, primarily driven by the pending disposition of recently consolidated HuntingtonFirst Staunton branches, but decreased $6and increased $10 million, or 23%83%, from September 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, primarily driven by the Bank Mutual branch dispositions during the fourth quarterpending disposition of 2018.consolidated Huntington and First Staunton branches.
Other nonperforming assets: DuringThe asset balance as of March 31, 2020 represents the third quarter of 2019, the Bank accepted a partial settlement of a debt by receivingBank's units of ownership interest in an oil and gas limited liability company. The asset balance as of September 30, 2018 represents the Bank's ownership interest in a profit participation agreement in an entity created to own certain oil and gas assets obtainedcompany as a result of bankruptcy and liquidationa partial settlement of a borrower in partial satisfactiondebt.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
Credit risks within the loan portfolio are inherently different for each loan type. Credit risk is controlled and monitored through the use of lending standards, a thorough review of potential borrowers, and ongoing review of loan payment performance. Active asset quality administration, including early problem loan identification and timely resolution of problems, aids in the management of credit risk and the minimization of loan losses. Credit risk management for each loan type is discussed in the section entitled Credit Risk. See Note 7 Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures on the allowance for credit losses.ACLL.
To assess the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses,ACLL, an allocation methodology is applied by the Corporation which focuses on evaluation of many factors, including but not limited to: evaluation of facts and issues related to specific loans, management’s ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio, credit report refreshes, consideration of historical loan loss and delinquency experience on each portfolio category, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, the level of potential problem loans, the risk characteristics of the various classifications of loan segments, changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries, existing economic conditions and economic forecasts, the fair value of underlying collateral, funding assumptions on lines and other qualitative and quantitative factors which could affect potential credit losses. The Corporation utilized the Moody's baseline forecast, updated at the end of March, in the allowance model. The forecast is applied over a 1 year reasonable and supportable period with immediate reversion to historical long run losses. Assessing these factors involves significant judgment. Because each of the criteria used is subject to change, the allowance for loan lossesACLL is not necessarily indicative of the trend of future loancredit losses on loans in any particular segment. Therefore, management considers the allowance for loan lossesACLL a critical accounting policy, see section Critical Accounting Policies in the Corporation’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on the allowance for loan losses.ACLL. See section Nonperforming Assets for a detailed discussion on asset quality. See also Note 7 Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements for additional allowance for loan lossesACLL disclosures. Table 5 provides information on loan growth and period end loan composition, Table 1014 provides additional information regarding nonperforming assets,NPAs, and Table 1115 and Table 1216 provide additional information regarding activity in the allowance for loan losses.ACLL.
The methodology used for the allocation of the allowance for loan lossesACLL at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 20182019 was generally comparable. The allocation methodology consists of the following components: First, a valuation allowance estimate is established for specifically identified commercial and consumer loans determined by the Corporation to be impaired,individually evaluated, using discounted cash flows, estimated fair value of underlying collateral, and / or other data available. Second, management allocates the allowance for loan lossesACLL with loss factors by loan segment. Loans are segmented for criticized loan pools by loan type as well as for non-criticized loan pools by loan type, primarily based on historical loss rates after considering loan type, historical loss and delinquency experience, credit quality, and industry classifications. Loans that have been criticized are considered to have a higher risk of default than non-criticized loans, as circumstances were present to support the lower loan grade, warranting higher loss factors. The loss factors applied in the methodology are periodically re-evaluated and adjusted to reflect changes in historical loss levels or other risks. Additionally, management allocates allowance for loan lossesACLL to absorb losses that may not be provided for by the other components due to qualitative factors evaluated by management, such as limitations within the credit risk grading process, known current economic or business conditions that may not yet show in trends, industry or other concentrations with current issues that impose higher inherent risks than are reflected in the loss factors, and other relevant considerations. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any segment of the loan portfolio.

In addition, the Corporation added $370 million in loans from the First Staunton acquisition during the first quarter of 2020. See section Loans for additional information on the changes in the loan portfolio and see section Credit Risk for discussion about credit risk management for each loan type.

Potential problem loans decreased $117increased $73 million, or 47%45%, from December 31, 2018 and decreased $103 million, or 44%, from September 30, 20182019 primarily due to non-oilincreases in potential problem commercial and gas related payoffs.industrial and commercial real estate - investor loans. See Table 1014 for additional information on the changes in potential problem loans.

Total nonaccrual loans increased $1$18 million, or 1%15%, from December 31, 2018,2019, primarily due to an increase in nonaccrual commercial and industrial and residential mortgage loans, but decreased $25$19 million, or 16%12%, from September 30, 2018March 31, 2019, primarily driven by the Corporation's sale of $12 million of nonaccrual loans during the third quarter of 2019 as part of the Corporation's deleveraging strategy.due to a decrease in commercial and industrial loans. See Note 7 Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements and section Nonperforming AssetsTable 14 for additional disclosures on the changes in asset quality.

Year-to-date net charge offs increased $11$10 million or 36%, from the comparable period last year,March 31, 2019, primarily due to thedriven by an increase in commercial and industrial charge offs of oil and gas related credits.offs.

Liquidity
The objective of liquidity risk management is to ensure that the Corporation has the ability to generate sufficient cash or cash equivalents in a timely and cost effective manner to satisfy the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers and to meet its other commitments as they become due. The Corporation’s liquidity risk management process is designed to identify, measure, and manage the Corporation’s funding and liquidity risk to meet its daily funding needs in the ordinary course of business, as well as to address expected and unexpected changes in its funding requirements. The Corporation engages in

various activities to manage its liquidity risk, including diversifying its funding sources, stress testing, and holding readily-marketable assets which can be used as a source of liquidity, if needed.

The Corporation performs dynamic scenario analysis in accordance with industry best practices. Measures have been established to ensure the Corporation has sufficient high quality short-term liquidity to meet cash flow requirements under

stressed scenarios. In addition, the Corporation also reviews static measures such as deposit funding as a percentage of total assets and liquid asset levels. Strong capital ratios, credit quality, and core earnings are also essential to maintaining cost effective access to wholesale funding markets. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Corporation was in compliance with its internal liquidity objectives and has sufficient asset-based liquidity to meet its obligations under a stressed scenario.

The Corporation maintains diverse and readily available liquidity sources, including:

Investment securities, which are an important tool to the Corporation’s liquidity objective and can be pledged or sold to enhance liquidity, if necessary. See Note 6 Investment Securities of the notes to consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Corporation's investment securities portfolio, including pledged investment securities pledged.securities.
The Bank pledgesPledgeable loan collateral, which is eligible loans tocollateral with both the Federal Reserve Bank and the FHLB as collateral to establishunder established lines of credit and borrow from these entities.credit. Based on the amount of collateral pledged, the FHLB established a collateral value from which the Bank may draw advances against the collateral. The collateral is also used to enable the FHLB to issue letters of credit in favor of public fund depositors of the Bank. As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Bank had $4.2$3.6 billion available for future advances. The Federal Reserve Bank also establishes a collateral value of assets to support borrowings from the discount window.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk and interest rate risk are managed centrally. Market risk is the potential for loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of fixed income securities, equity securities, other earning assets and derivative financial instruments as a result of changes in interest rates or other factors. Interest rate risk is the potential for reduced net interest income resulting from adverse changes in the level of interest rates. As a financial institution that engages in transactions involving an array of financial products, the Corporation is exposed to both market risk and interest rate risk. In addition to market risk, interest rate risk is measured and managed through a number of methods. The Corporation uses financial modeling simulation techniques that measure the sensitivity of future earnings due to changing rate environments to measure interest rate risk.
Policies established by the Corporation’s ALCO and approved by the Board of Directors are intended to limit these risks. The Board has delegated day-to-day responsibility for managing market and interest rate risk to ALCO. The primary objectives of market risk management is to minimize any adverse effect that changes in market risk factors may have on net interest income and to offset the risk of price changes for certain assets recorded at fair value.
Interest Rate Risk
The primary goal of interest rate risk management is to control exposure to interest rate risk within policy limits approved by the Board of Directors. These limits and guidelines reflect the Corporation's risk appetite for interest rate risk over both short-term and long-term horizons. No interest rate limit breaches occurred during the first ninethree months of 2019.2020.
The major sources of the Corporation's non-trading interest rate risk are timing differences in the maturity and re-pricing characteristics of assets and liabilities, changes in the shape of the yield curve, and the potential exercise of explicit or embedded options. We measure these risks and their impact by identifying and quantifying exposures through the use of sophisticated simulation and valuation models which are employed by management to understand NII at risk, interest rate sensitive EAR, and MVE at risk. The Corporation’s interest rate risk profile is such that a higher or steeper yield curve adds to income while a flatter yield curve is relatively neutral, and a lower or inverted yield curve generally has a negative impact on earnings. The Corporation's EAR profile is slightly asset sensitive at September 30, 2019. March 31, 2020.
For further discussion of the Corporation's interest rate risk and corresponding key assumptions, see the Interest Rate Risk section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The sensitivity analysis included below is measured as a percentage change in NII and EAR due to gradual moves in benchmark interest rates from a baseline scenario over 12 months. We evaluate the sensitivity using: 1) a dynamic forecast incorporating expected growth in the balance sheet, and 2) a static forecast where the current balance sheet is held constant.
While a gradual shift in interest rates was used in this analysis to provide an estimate of exposure under a probable scenario, an instantaneous shift in interest rates would have a much more significant impact.

Since MVE measures the discounted present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments theThe change in MVE does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon (i.e., the current year). Further, MVE does not take into account factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in product mix, changes in yield curve relationships, and changes in product spreads that could mitigate the adverse impact of changes in interest rates.

The above NII, EAR, and MVE measures do not include all actions that management may undertake to manage this risk in response to anticipated changes in interest rates.

(a) The Federal Reserve establishes regulatory capital requirements, including well-capitalized standards for the Corporation. The Corporation follows Basel III, subject to certain transition provisions. These regulatory capital measurements are used by management, regulators, investors, and analysts to assess, monitor and compare the quality and composition of the Corporation's capital with the capital of other financial services companies.
(b) Ratio is based upon basic earnings per common share.

See Part II, Item 2, Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds, for information on the shares repurchased during the thirdfirst quarter of 2019.2020.

In February 2019, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule (the "2019 CECL Rule") that revised certain capital regulations to account for changes to credit loss accounting under GAAP. The rule included a transition option that allows banking organizations to phase in, over a three-year period, the day-one impact of CECL adoption on regulatory capital ratios. In March 2020, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that maintains the three-year transition option of the 2019 CECL Rule and also provides an option to delay for two years an estimate of the effect of CECL on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology's effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three- year transition period. The Corporation has elected to utilize the CECL Transition Provision granted by the banking regulators. Under these provisions, the Day 1 capital impact relating to the adoption of ASU 2016-13 and 25% of the difference between the period end ACL and the Day 1 ACL will be 100% deferred for 2 years, and then phased in over the next 3 years. At March 31, 2020, the Corporation had a modified CECL transitional amount of $108 million.

(a) The ratio tangible common equity to tangible assets excludes goodwill and other intangible assets, net, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. This financial measure has been included as it is considered to be a critical metric with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strength.
(b) The Federal Reserve establishes regulatory capital requirements, including well-capitalized standards for the Corporation. The Corporation follows Basel III, subject to certain transition provisions. These regulatory capital measurements are used by management, regulators, investors, and analysts to assess, monitor and compare the quality and composition of the Corporation's capital with the capital of other financial services companies.
(c) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes these measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators, and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of earnings per common share and provide greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhanced comparability of results with prior periods.
(d) The efficiency ratio as defined by the Federal Reserve guidance is noninterest expense (which includes the provision for unfunded commitments) divided by the sum of net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding investment securities gains / losses, net. The fully tax-equivalent efficiency ratio is noninterest expense (which includes the provision for unfunded commitments), excluding other intangible amortization, divided by the sum of fully tax-equivalent net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding investment securities gains / losses, net. The adjusted efficiency ratio is noninterest expense, (which includeswhich excludes the provision for unfunded commitments), excludingcommitments, other intangible amortization, and acquisition related costs, divided by the sum of fully tax-equivalent net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding investment securities gains / losses, net and acquisition related costs. Management believes the adjusted efficiency ratio which adjusts net interest income for the tax-favored status of certain loans and investment securities and acquisition related costs, to beis a meaningful measure as it enhances the comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources and excludesprovides a better measure as to how the Corporation is managing its expenses by adjusting for acquisition related costs.costs and provision for unfunded commitments.

Net income available to common equity was $80$42 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 2019,2020, or $0.50$0.27 for both basic and $0.49 for diluted earnings per common share. Comparatively, net income available to common equity for the secondfourth quarter of 2019 was $81$68 million, or net income of $0.49$0.43 for both basic and diluted earnings per common share (see Table 1).
Fully tax-equivalent net interest income for the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 was $211$207 million, $7$3 million lowerhigher than the secondfourth quarter of 2019. The net interest margin in the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 was down 6up 1 bp to 2.81%2.84%.

On the funding side, average interest-bearing deposits were down $115up $152 million, or 1%, while and FHLB advances decreased $454increased $323 million, or 14%11% (see Table 2). The favorable results in the first quarter of 2020 were primarily driven by higher loan volumes, LIBOR - fed funds expansion, and interest-bearing deposit cost reductions.
Average total deposits for the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 increased $120$189 million, or less than 1%, compared to the secondfourth quarter of 2019. On JuneFebruary 14, 2019,2020, the Corporation assumed $725$439 million in deposits from the Huntington branchFirst Staunton acquisition. As a result of the acquisition, the Corporation was able to reduce higher cost brokered CDs and network deposits.
The provision for credit losses was $2$53 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 2019, down from $8 million2020, compared to zero in the secondfourth quarter of 2019 (see Table 11)15). The increase was a result of inflows in probable TDRs and the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic within the economic models used in the new expected credit loss methodology.

Noninterest expense increased $3decreased $11 million, or 2%6%, to $201$192 million,primarily driven by increases of $1 million each in occupancy, business development and advertising, and legal and professional expenses, partially offset by a $2 million decrease in acquisition related costs (seefunding for the management incentive plan(see Table 4).
For the thirdfirst quarter of 2019,2020, the Corporation recognized income tax expense of $21$10 million, compared to income tax expense of $19$17 million for the secondfourth quarter of 2019. The effective tax rate was 20.09%18.23% and 18.34%19.41% for the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 and the secondfourth quarter of 2019, respectively. The lower tax expense in the secondfirst quarter of 20192020 was primarily driven by the contribution of appreciated securities to the Corporation’s Charitable Remainder Trust. decrease in income before tax. See Income Taxes section for a detailed discussion on income taxes.

Comparable Quarter Results

The Corporation reported net income of $83 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $86 million for the third quarter of 2018. Net income available to common equity was $80 million for the third quarter of 2019, or $0.50 for basic and $0.49 for diluted earnings per common share. Comparatively, net income available to common equity for the third quarter of 2018 was $84 million, or $0.49 for basic earnings per common share and $0.48 for diluted earnings per common share (see Table 1).
Fully tax-equivalent net interest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $211 million, $12 million, or 6%, lower than the third quarter of 2018. The net interest margin between the comparable quarters was down 11 bp, to 2.81% in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in net interest income and net interest margin was attributable to lower prepayments and accretion related to the Bank Mutual acquisition and higher deposit costs compared to the third quarter of 2018. Average earning assets decreased $653 million, or 2%, to $29.8 billion in the third quarter of 2019 as the Corporation used its investment portfolio as a source of funds seeking to reposition its balance sheet for a declining rate environment. On the funding side, average interest-bearing deposits increased $492 million, or 3%, from the third quarter of 2018, primarily driven by a $1.2 billion, or 17%, increase in interest-bearing demand and savings deposits, partially offset by a $613 million, or 8%, decrease in money market deposits. Average short and long-term funding decreased $998 million, or 22%, primarily due to a decrease in FHLB advances of $974 million, or 26% (see Table 2).
The provision for credit losses was $2 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to negative $5 million for the third quarter of 2018 (see Table 11). See discussion under sections: Provision for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Allowance for Credit Losses.
Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $101 million, up $13 million, or 14%, compared to third quarter of 2018, primarily due to a $7 million increase in mortgage banking, net, due to increased settlements, including approximately $240 million of portfolio mortgages that were sold during the third quarter of 2019 as part of the Corporation's deleveraging strategy which enabled the Corporation to pay down higher cost funding. The sale also reduced interest rate risk by lowering the Corporation's asset sensitivity and freed up capital in advance of the adoption of CECL in the first quarter of 2020. Additionally, there was a $4 million increase in investment securities gains (losses), net, driven by gains on sales of securities during the third quarter of 2019 as part of the ongoing portfolio restructuring and deleveraging strategy (see Table 3).
Noninterest expense decreased $3 million, or 2%, to $201 million for the third quarter of 2019. FDIC expense decreased $4 million, or 48%, driven by the removal of the FDIC surcharge assessment in late 2018 (see Table 4).

The Corporation recognized income tax expense of $21 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to income tax expense of $22 million for the third quarter of 2018. The effective tax rate was 20.09% and 20.64% for the third quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively. See section Income Taxes for a detailed discussion on income taxes.

Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change include the determination of the allowance for loan losses,ACLL, goodwill impairment assessment, MSRMSRs valuation, and income taxes. A discussion of these policies can be found in the Critical Accounting Policies section in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There havehas been no changesone change in the Corporation's application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2018.2019 driven by the adoption of ASU 2016-13.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans: Management’s evaluation process used to determine the appropriateness of the ACLL is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments. The evaluation process combines many factors: management’s ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio using a dual risk rating system leveraging probability of default and loss given default, consideration of historical loan loss and delinquency experience, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries, existing economic conditions and forecasts, the fair value of underlying collateral, and other qualitative and quantitative factors which could affect future credit losses. Because current economic conditions and forecasts can change and future events are inherently difficult to predict, the anticipated amount of estimated credit losses on loans, and therefore the appropriateness of the ACLL, could change significantly. The Corporation uses Moody's baseline economic forecast within its model. As an integral part of their examination process, various regulatory agencies also review the ACLL. Such agencies may require additions to the ACLL or may require that certain loan balances be charged off or downgraded into criticized loan categories when their credit evaluations differ from those of management, based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. The Corporation believes the level of the ACLL is appropriate. See Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 7 Loans of the notes to consolidated financial statements as well as the Allowance for Credit Losses section.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.Legal Proceedings

The information required by this item is set forth in Part I, Item 1 under Note 12 Commitments, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Matters of the notes to consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 1A.Risk Factors
The following risk factors supplements the Risk Factors described in the Corporation’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction therewith.

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has resulted in significant deterioration and disruption in national and local economic conditions and record levels of unemployment, which may have a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. The outbreak of COVID-19 has caused a global and national health emergency, resulting in the President declaring a national emergency and, for the first time in history, the issuance of a major disaster declaration for all 50 states. Federal and state governments have taken, and continue to take, unprecedented actions to slow the spread of the disease, including stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions and quarantines and shutdowns of schools and businesses. The vast majority of states are currently operating under stay-at-home orders, including the states in which the Corporation does business. Wisconsin's stay-at-home order has been extended until May 26, 2020 and Illinois’ and Minnesota’s stay-at-home orders have been extended until May 30 and May 18, 2020, respectively. While all three states have also announced some easing of restrictions on non-essential businesses and, in Illinois, an expansion of the types of businesses considered essential, public health experts have cautioned that re-opening the economy too soon could result in a resurgence of COVID-19.

The uncertain economic conditions and stay-at home orders due to COVID-19 have resulted in an extremely challenging operating environment for many businesses, and the complete shutdown of others, as well as record levels of unemployment. The national unemployment rate increased to 14.7% in April 2020, from 3.6% in January 2020. The national unemployment level has increased with unprecedented speed as more than 30 million people have filed for unemployment assistance in the wake of the economic shutdown due to COVID-19.

The timing for any re-opening of the economy is unclear and could be delayed longer than as indicated by recent public statements from the White House. In addition, the governors of Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and Ohio have agreed to coordinate their states’ economic re-openings. And while there have been trillions of dollars in economic stimulus packages initiated by the Federal Reserve and the federal government, including the $2 trillion CARES Act, as expanded by the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Act, in an effort to counteract the significant economic disruption from COVID-19, there can be no assurance that these packages will be sufficient, or work quickly enough, to stimulate the economy, and additional governmental stimulus may be needed. Accordingly, the Corporation will be operating under uncertain economic conditions for a lengthy period of time.

Additionally the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected the financial markets and has resulted in a number of Federal Reserve actions. Market interest rates have declined significantly. In March 2020, the Federal Reserve reduced the target federal funds rate to a range of 0.00% to 0.25%, the lowest since the 2008 economic crisis, and announced a $700 billion quantitative easing program in response to the expected economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the Federal Reserve reduced the interest that it pays on excess reserves. At its April meeting, the Federal Reserve continued its commitment to these policies. These reductions in interest rates, especially if prolonged, could adversely affect our net interest income, net interest spread and net interest margin. Further, the overall impact of COVID-19 on the financial markets could result in a significant decline in the market value of the Corporation's common stock, which may cause us to perform a goodwill impairment test in between annual tests. If that impairment test indicates that the fair value of any of our reporting units is less than its carrying amount, we may be required to record a goodwill impairment charge, which could adversely affect our results of operations. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business activities as a result of new government and regulatory policies, programs and guidelines, as well as market reactions to such activities, remains uncertain.

Regulatory and governmental actions to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on borrowers, including required loan forbearances and restrictions on evictions, could result in a material decline in our earnings. There have been a number of recent bank regulatory actions and legislative changes intended to help mitigate the adverse economic impact of COVID-19 on borrowers, including mandates requiring financial institutions to work constructively with borrowers affected by COVID-19. In addition, the governors of many states in which we do business or in which our borrowers and loan collateral are located have issued temporary bans on evictions and foreclosures. In Wisconsin, the Governor has issued a temporary ban on all residential
84


and commercial evictions and foreclosures until May 26, 2020. In addition, we have implemented the following programs to assist our borrowers and other customers in mitigating the impact of COVID-19: consumer and commercial loan and credit card deferral programs, suspension of certain transaction and late fees, and the suspension of foreclosures and repossessions.

At the federal level, Section 4022 of the CARES Act allows, until the earlier of December 31, 2020 or the date the national emergency declared by the President terminates, borrowers with federally-backed one-to-four family mortgage loans experiencing a financial hardship due to COVID-19 to request forbearance, regardless of delinquency status, for up to 360 days. Section 4022 also prohibits servicers of federally-backed mortgage loans from initiating foreclosures during the 60-day period beginning March 18, 2020. In addition, under Section 4023 of the CARES Act, until the earlier of December 31, 2020 and the date the national emergency declared by the President terminates, borrowers with federally-backed multifamily mortgage loans whose payments were current as of February 1, 2020, but who have since experienced financial hardship due to COVID-19, may request a forbearance for up to 90 days. Borrowers receiving such forbearance may not evict or charge late fees to tenants for its duration.

As a result of the forbearance and mitigation programs described above, we expect a significant decline in borrower loan payments, which may have a material impact on our earnings, as well as a reduction in fee income.

We expect our loan portfolios to be significantly affected by the response to COVID-19 and our allowance for credit losses on loans may not be sufficient to cover losses in our portfolios. The economic shutdown in response to COVID-19 may result in a significant increase in delinquencies across all of our loan portfolios, particularly our commercial loan portfolio as stay-at-home orders and travel restrictions have caused many businesses to close, either temporarily or permanently, or substantially reduce operations, which will adversely affect the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans. In particular, our commercial loan portfolio includes $2.2 billion, representing 9% of total loans, to borrowers in key industries which may see elevated risk as a result of the current economic dynamics. These key exposures include: $1.1 billion of loans to retailers and shopping centers, $466 million to oil & gas producers, $211 million of loans to borrowers in the hotel industry, $119 million to restaurant related borrowers, and approximately $260 million across various exposures, which have been significantly impacted by the stay-at-home orders and travel restrictions. The substantial increase in unemployment will also have a significant adverse impact on the ability of our residential and multi-family borrowers to repay their loans.

As a result of our evaluation of the current and expected impacts of COVID-19 on our loan portfolios, we believe that our loan losses and delinquencies will significantly exceed what we anticipated when our ACLL was established at the end of 2019. As a result, we have increased our ACLL by $171 million to $394 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared to $223 million at the end of 2019. As the economic impact due to COVID-19 has been experienced in recent weeks and there are no assurances as to how long it will be before the COVID-19 pandemic abates and economic activity can begin to resume to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels, there is no assurance that we will not need to significantly add to our loan loss reserves in future periods.

The stay-at-home orders in the states in which we do business have created operational challenges for our business, and our ability to conduct our business could be further adversely affected if a significant number of our management or employees or their families become ill due to COVID-19. Under the stay-at-home orders in place in the states in which we conduct business, all individuals generally must stay at home except to perform certain essential activities or governmental functions or to operate essential businesses. While banks are considered essential and our branches and offices are permitted to remain open, we have taken a number of actions to help ensure the safety of our employees and customers, including suspending all lobby access at most of our branch locations and conducting branch business through our drive thru windows and ATMs, and requiring employees with certain job functions to work from home. We also have contingency plans in place to ensure continuity of management and operations in the event that members of our senior management or employees become ill due to COVID-19. However, notwithstanding the protective measures and plans we have in place, our employees and their families may still be affected by COVID-19. If a significant number of our employees or if key individuals become unable to work or to perform their jobs properly due to COVID-19, our ability to conduct our business could be negatively impacted. In addition, we rely on third party vendors to provide key components of our business infrastructure. If any of these third party vendors experience significant disruption as a result of COVID-19, they may not be able to provide their services properly or in a timely manner, which could also adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. We also face an increased risk of cyber-attacks or other security breaches due to the increase in the number of our employees working from home, as well as an increase in online banking activity.

We have originated a significant number of loans under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program, which may result in a large number of such loans remaining on our consolidated balance sheets at a very low yield for an extended period of time. We participated as a lender under the SBA’s PPP established under the CARES Act. The PPP authorizes financial institutions to make federally-guaranteed loans to qualifying small businesses and non-profits organizations. These loans carry a maturity of two years and an interest rate of 1% per annum. The PPP provides that such loans may be forgiven if the borrowers meet certain requirements with respect to maintaining employee headcount and payroll and the use of the loan proceeds after the loan is originated. If not forgiven, these loans will be guaranteed by the SBA under the SBA’s section 7(a) program. As of May 6,
85


2020, we had originated $1.0 billion of PPP loans. In light of the speed at which the PPP was implemented, particularly due to the “first come first served” nature of the program, the loans originated under this program may present potential fraud risk, increasing the risk that loan forgiveness may not be obtained by the borrowers and that the guaranty may not be honored. In addition, there is risk that the borrowers may not qualify for the loan forgiveness feature due to the conduct of the borrower after the loan is originated. These factors may result in us having to hold a significant amount of these low-yield loans on our books for a significant period of time.

The OCC has also recently issued guidance encouraging banks to follow prudent banking practices consistent with safety and soundness principles in making PPP loans, including by thoroughly documenting the bank's decisions when setting eligibility criteria, establishing a process for considering applications and approving or denying PPP loan applications, as well as identifying and tracking PPP loan volumes. The guidance also states that, in exercising supervisory and enforcement responsibilities in this area, the OCC will take into account the unique circumstances resulting from the national emergency and good faith efforts to comply with applicable legal requirements. Thus, while the PPP guidelines provide that lenders may rely on borrower representations and certifications regarding eligibility with respect to PPP loans and do not need to verify information provided, the OCC guidance makes clear that banks are still expected to prudently underwrite, document and track PPP loans in a manner consistent with safe and sound banking practices and could face supervisory or enforcement risks in failing to do so. Further, recent statements by members of Congress and the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States make clear that compliance with the PPP requirements likely will become the subject of investigations and potentially enforcement actions by various government agencies.

Risks Related to Oil and Gas Industry

We may be adversely affected by declines in oil prices. Ongoing volatility in the oil and gas markets has compressed margins for many U.S.-based oil producers and others in the oil and gas industry. Our oil and gas portfolio is comprised of 35 credits made to small and mid-sized companies. These borrowers are likely to be adversely affected by price volatility or a downturn in oil and gas prices. During the first quarter of 2020, there has been a drastic decrease in crude oil prices as a result of the reported dispute between Russia and Saudi Arabia regarding oil production levels, which could result in a material adverse impact on such borrowers. As of March 31, 2020, our oil and gas loan exposure was $703 million of commitments with $466 million outstanding, representing less than 2% of our loan portfolio. The ACLL related to this portfolio was 16.6% at March 31, 2020, compared to 2.7% at December 31, 2019. A significant deterioration in our oil and gas loans could cause a significant increase in nonaccrual loans. An increase in nonaccrual loans could result in a loss of interest income from these loans, one or more additional increases in the provision for credit losses, and an increase in loan charge offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
