CAMBRIDGE BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cambridge Bancorp (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cambridge Trust Company (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Cambridge Trust Company of New Hampshire Inc., CTC Security Corporation, and CTC Security Corporation III. References to the Company herein relate to the consolidated group of companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

The Company is a state-chartered, federally registered bank holding company headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts and was incorporated in 1983. The Company is the sole shareholder of the Bank, a Massachusetts trust company chartered in 1890, which is a commercial bank. The Company operates as a private bank offering a full range of private banking and wealth management services to its clients. The private banking business, the Company’s only reportable operating segment, is managed as a single strategic unit.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Interim results are not necessarily reflective of the results of the entire year.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 14, 2022.

2. Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The allowance for credit losses is particularly subject to change.

3. Subsequent Events

Northmark Merger

On October 1, 2022, the Company completed its merger (the “Northmark Merger”) with Northmark Bank. (“Northmark”), adding three banking offices in Massachusetts. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, each outstanding share of Northmark common stock was converted into 0.9950 shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the Northmark Merger, former Northmark stockholders received an aggregate of 788,137 shares of the Company's common stock. The total consideration paid amounted to $62.8 million, based on the closing price of $79.74 of the Company's common stock and cash paid for fractional shares on October 1, 2022.

The Company recorded total assets of $429.0 million, assumed total liabilities of $378.5 million, and recorded $12.3 million in goodwill.

The Company accounted for the Northmark Merger using the acquisition method pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 805, “Business Combinations.” Accordingly, the Company recorded merger expenses of $150,000 and $396,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

The acquisition method requires the acquirer to recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the acquisition:


							At October 1, 2022

Management has reviewed events occurring through ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2022, the date the unaudited consolidated financial statements were available to be issued and determined that no other subsequent events occurred requiring adjustment to or disclosure in these unaudited consolidated financial statements.

4. Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Accounting Pronouncements Yet to be Adopted

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU require an entity disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on the disclosures within its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method. The amendments in this ASU allow multiple hedged layers to be designated for a single closed portfolio of financial assets or one or more beneficial interests secured by a portfolio of financial instruments. The amendments in this ASU also clarify the accounting for and promote consistency in the reporting of hedge basis adjustments applicable to both a single hedged layer and multiple hedged layers. These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

5. Cash and cash equivalents

At ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents totaled $~~25.0~~31.5 million and $180.2 million, respectively. There were 0no amounts required to be maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company pledged $500,000 to the New Hampshire Banking Department relating to Cambridge Trust Company of New Hampshire, Inc.’s operations in that state. The Company did 0not have any cash pledged as collateral

to derivative counterparties at ~~June~~September 30, 2022, as compared to the $13.3 million pledged at December 31, 2021. See Note 16- Derivative and Hedging Activities for a discussion of the Company’s derivative and hedging activities.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, ~~390~~461 debt securities had gross unrealized losses, with an aggregate depreciation of ~~10.8~~15.9% from the Company’s amortized cost basis. The largest unrealized dollar loss of any single security was $~~1.6~~2.1 million, or ~~16.6~~22.5% of its amortized cost. The largest unrealized loss percentage of any single security was ~~31.7~~38.9% of its amortized cost, or $~~745,000~~914,000.

The Company believes that the nature and duration of unrealized losses on its debt security positions are primarily a function of interest rate movements and changes in investment spreads and does not consider full repayment of principal on the reported debt obligations to be at risk. Since nearly all of these securities are rated “investment grade” and (a) the Company does not intend to sell these securities before recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities before recovery, the Company does not expect to suffer a credit loss as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities, aggregated by the earlier of call date or contractual maturity, are shown below. Maturities of mortgage-backed securities do not take into consideration scheduled amortization or prepayments. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020 and provided emergency economic relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Among other things, the CARES Act authorized the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) to temporarily guarantee loans under a new 7(a) loan program called the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). As a qualified SBA lender, the Company was authorized to originate PPP loans.

PPP loans have: (a) an interest rate of 1.0%, (b) a two year or five-year loan term to maturity; and (c) principal and interest payments deferred until the SBA remits the forgiven amount to the Company or 10 months from the end of the covered period, as defined. The SBA guarantees 100% of the PPP loans made to eligible borrowers. The entire principal amount of the borrower’s PPP loan, including any accrued interest, is eligible to be reduced by the loan forgiveness amount under the PPP so long as employee and compensation levels of the business are maintained and 60% of the loan proceeds are used for payroll expense, with the remaining 40% of the loan proceeds used for other qualifying expenses. The Company did not record an allowance for credit losses for PPP loans at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

Directors and officers of the Company and their associates are customers of, and have other transactions with, the Company in the normal course of business. All loans and commitments included in such transactions were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons and do not involve more than normal risk of collection or present other unfavorable features.

Asset Quality

The Company’s philosophy toward managing its loan portfolios is predicated upon careful monitoring, which stresses early detection and response to delinquent and default situations. The Company seeks to make arrangements to resolve any delinquent or default situation over the shortest possible time frame. As a general rule, loans more than 90 days past due with respect to principal or interest are classified as nonaccrual loans. The Company may use discretion regarding other loans over 90 days past due if the loan is well secured and/or in process of collection.

The following tables set forth information regarding non-performing loans disaggregated by loan category:

Pursuant to Section 4013 of the CARES Act, financial institutions could suspend the requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for modifications made before December 31, 2020 to loans that were current as of December 31, 2019. As a result of the enactment of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, in January 2021, the suspension of TDR accounting was extended to, and expired on January 1, 2022. The requirement that a loan be not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019 was still applicable. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impact to customers, a short-term modification program that complied with the CARES Act was implemented to provide temporary payment relief to those borrowers directly impacted by COVID-19. The deferred payments along with interest accrued during the deferral period are due and payable on the maturity date. Under issued guidance, provided that these loans were current as of either year end or the date of the modification, these loans were not considered TDR loans at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and will not be reported as past due during the deferral period. The Company had 0no loans in deferral as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

With respect to residential mortgages, home equity, and consumer loans, the Company utilizes the following categories as indicators of credit quality:

•

Performing – These loans are accruing and are considered having low to moderate risk.

•

Non-performing – These loans are on nonaccrual, are more than 90 days past due but are still accruing, or are restructured. These loans may contain greater than average risk.

1314

With respect to commercial real estate mortgages and commercial and industrial loans, the Company utilizes a 10-grade internal loan rating system as an indicator of credit quality. The grades are as follows:

•

Loans rated 1-6 (Pass) – These loans are considered “pass” rated with low to moderate risk.

•

Loans rated 7 (Special Mention) – These loans have potential weaknesses warranting close attention, which, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the credit at some future date.

•

Loans rated 8 (Substandard) – These loans have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly liquidation of the debt under the original loan terms. Loss potential exists but is not identifiable in any one customer.

•

Loans rated 9 (Doubtful) – These loans have pronounced weaknesses that make full collection highly questionable and improbable.

•

Loans rated 10 (Loss) – These loans are considered uncollectible and continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted.

Delinquencies

The past due status of a loan is determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms. All loan types are reported past due when one scheduled payment is due and unpaid for 30 days or more. Loan delinquencies can be attributed to many factors, such as but not limited to, a continuing weakness in, or deteriorating, economic conditions in the region in which the collateral is located, the loss of a tenant or lower lease rates for commercial borrowers, or the loss of income for consumers and the resulting liquidity impacts on the borrowers.

The following tables contain period-end balances of loans receivable disaggregated by past due status:

The Company maintains a Profit-Sharing Plan (“PSP”) that provides for deferral of federal and state income taxes on employee contributions allowed under Section 401(k) of federal law.

11. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

To meet the financing needs of its customers, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business. These financial instruments are primarily comprised of commitments to extend credit, commitments to sell residential mortgage loans, and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments assuming that the amounts are fully advanced, and that collateral or other security is of no value. The Company generally uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Off-balance-sheet financial instruments with contractual amounts that present credit risk include the following:

16. Derivative AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company utilizes interest rate swaps and floors to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk and to facilitate the needs of its customers. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts principally related to the Company’s assets.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses interest rate floors to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate floors designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates fall below the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCL and subsequently reclassified into interest income in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized over the life of the hedge on a systematic and rational basis. The earnings recognition of excluded components is presented in interest income. Amounts reported in AOCL related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest income as interest payments are received on the Company’s variable-rate assets.

During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $~~167,000~~584,000 will be reclassified out of AOCL into earnings, as a decrease to interest income.

Non-designated Hedges

Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from ~~a service~~interest rate swaps and risk participation agreements the Company provides to certain customers. ~~For the Company’s customers, these are interest rate swaps and risk participation agreements.~~

Interest Rate Swaps. The Company enters into interest rate swap contracts to help commercial loan borrowers manage their interest rate risk. The interest rate swap contracts with commercial loan borrowers allow them to convert floating-rate loan payments to fixed rate loan payments. When the Company enters into an interest rate swap contract with a commercial loan borrower, it simultaneously enters into a “mirror” swap contract with a third party. The third party exchanges the borrower’s fixed-rate loan payments for floating-rate loan payments. These derivatives are not designated as hedges and therefore, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. Because these derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, the changes in fair value substantially offset each other through earnings. Fees earned in connection with the execution of derivatives related to this program are recognized in earnings through loan-related derivative income.

The credit risk associated with swap transactions is the risk of default by the counterparty. To minimize this risk, the Company enters into interest rate agreements only with highly rated counterparties that management believes to be creditworthy and maintains collateral pledging agreements with its counterparties. The notional amounts of these agreements do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, thus, are not a measure of the potential loss exposure.

Risk Participation Agreements. The Company enters into risk participation agreements (“RPAs”) with other banks participating in commercial loan arrangements. Participating banks guarantee the performance on borrower-related interest rate swap contracts. RPAs are derivative financial instruments and are recorded at fair value. These derivatives are not designated as hedges and, therefore, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.

Under a risk participation-out agreement, a derivative asset, the Company participates out a portion of the credit risk associated with the interest rate swap position executed with the commercial borrower for a fee paid to the participating bank. Under a risk participation-in agreement, a derivative liability, the Company assumes, or participates in, a portion of the credit risk associated with the interest rate swap position with the commercial borrower for a fee received from the other bank.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

By entering into derivative transactions, the Company is exposed to credit risk to the extent that counterparties to the derivative contracts do not perform as required. Should a counterparty fail to perform under the terms of a derivative contract, the Company’s credit exposure on interest rate swaps is limited to the net positive fair value and accrued interest of all swaps with each counterparty. The Company seeks to minimize counterparty credit risk through credit approvals, limits, monitoring procedures, and obtaining collateral, where appropriate. Institutional counterparties must have an investment grade credit rating and be approved by the Company’s board of directors. As such, management believes the risk of incurring credit losses on derivative contracts with institutional counterparties is remote.

The Company has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. In addition, the Company also has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative position(s) and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements.

Balance Sheet Offsetting

Certain financial instruments may be eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheet and/or subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. The Company’s derivative transactions with institutional counterparties are generally executed under International Swaps and Derivative Association (“ISDA”) master agreements which include “right of set-off” provisions. In such cases there is generally a legally enforceable right to offset recognized amounts and there may be an intention to settle such amounts on a net basis. Generally, the Company does not offset such financial instruments for financial reporting purposes.

The following tables present the information about financial instruments that are eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheets at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

At ~~June~~September 30, 2022 there were 0no derivatives in a net liability position related to these agreements. At December 31, 2021, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $14.0 million. At December 31, 2021, the Company had minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain derivative counterparties and posted cash collateral of $13.3 million. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at December 31, 2021, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $14.0 million.

The Company follows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) for financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. ASC 820, among other things, emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and states that a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. In addition, ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the types of valuation information (“inputs”) are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:

•

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

•

Level 3 – Valuations derived from techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable in the markets and which reflect the Company’s market assumptions.

Under ASC 820, fair values are based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value. If quoted prices are not available, fair value is based upon valuation techniques, such as matrix pricing or other models that use, where possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates. If observable market-based inputs are not available, the Company uses unobservable inputs to determine appropriate valuation adjustments using methodologies applied consistently over time.

Valuation techniques based on unobservable inputs are highly subjective and require judgments regarding significant matters, such as the amount and timing of future cash flows and the selection of discount rates that may appropriately reflect market and credit risks.

Changes in these judgments often have a material impact on the fair value estimates. In addition, since these estimates are as of a specific point in time, they are susceptible to material near-term changes. The fair values disclosed do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering significant holdings of financial instruments at bulk sale, nor do they reflect the possible tax ramifications or estimated transaction costs. Changes in economic conditions may also dramatically affect the estimated fair values.

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale, derivative instruments, and hedges are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as individually evaluated collateral dependent loans. The Company uses an exit price notion for its fair value disclosures.

The following tables summarize certain assets and liabilities reported at fair value on a recurring basis:

Individually evaluated collateral dependent loans. Collateral dependent loans are carried at the lower of cost or fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell which approximates fair value. The Company uses the appraisal value of the collateral and applies certain adjustments depending on the nature, quality, and type of collateral securing the loan.

Loans held for sale. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of fair value or carrying value (unpaid principal and unamortized loans fees).

There were 0no transfers between levels for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 or ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

The following is a description of the principal valuation methodologies used by the Company to estimate the fair values of its financial instruments:

Investment Securities

For investment securities, fair values are primarily based upon valuations obtained from a national pricing service which uses matrix pricing with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived from, or corroborated by, observable market data. When available, quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are utilized.

Loans Held for Sale

For loans held for sale, fair values are estimated using projected future cash flows, discounted at rates based upon either trades of similar loans or mortgage-backed securities, or at current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for similar remaining maturities.

2930

Loans

For most categories of loans, fair values are estimated using projected future cash flows, discounted at rates based upon current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings, and for similar remaining maturities. Projected estimated cash flows are adjusted for prepayment assumptions, liquidity premium assumptions, and credit loss assumptions. Loans that are deemed to be impaired in accordance with ASC 310, Receivables, are valued based upon the lower of cost or fair value of the underlying collateral.

Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (“FHLB of Boston”) Stock

The fair value of FHLB of Boston stock equals its carrying value since such stock is only redeemable at its par value.

Deposits

The fair value of non-maturity deposit accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. This amount does not take into account the value of the Bank’s long-term relationships with core depositors. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using a replacement cost of funds approach and is based upon rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Borrowings

For long-term borrowings, fair values are estimated using future cash flows, discounted at rates based upon current costs for debt securities with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Other Financial Assets and Liabilities

Cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable, and short-term borrowings have fair values which approximate their respective carrying values because these instruments are payable on demand or have short-term maturities and present relatively low credit risk and interest rate risk.

Derivative Instruments and Hedges

The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings.

Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments

In the course of originating loans and extending credit, the Company will charge fees in exchange for its commitment. While these commitment fees have value, the Company has not estimated their value due to the short-term nature of the underlying commitments and their immateriality.

Values Not Determined

In accordance with ASC 820, the Company has not estimated fair values for non-financial assets, such as banking premises and equipment, goodwill, the intangible value of the Company’s portfolio of loans serviced for itself, and the intangible value inherent in the Company’s deposit relationships (i.e., core deposits), among others. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

OVERVIEW

Cambridge Bancorp (together with its bank subsidiary, unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company”) is a Massachusetts state-chartered, federally registered bank holding company headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Company is a Massachusetts corporation formed in 1983 and has one bank subsidiary: Cambridge Trust Company (the “Bank”), formed in 1890. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had total assets of approximately $5.1 billion. The Bank operates 1922 full-service banking offices in Eastern Massachusetts and New Hampshire. As a private bank, we focus on four core services that center around client needs. The Company's core services include Wealth Management, Commercial Banking, Consumer Lending, and Personal Banking. The Bank’s customers consist primarily of consumers and small- and medium-sized businesses in the communities and surrounding areas throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The Company’s Wealth Management Group has five offices, two in Massachusetts in Boston and Wellesley, and three in New Hampshire in Concord, Manchester, and Portsmouth. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had Assets under Management and Administration of approximately ~~$4.0~~$3.8 billion. The Wealth Management Group offers comprehensive investment management, as well as trust administration, estate settlement, and financial planning services. The Company's wealth management clients value personal service and depend on the commitment and expertise of the Company's experienced banking, investment, and fiduciary professionals.

The Wealth Management Group customizes its investment portfolios to help clients meet their long-term financial goals. Through development of an appropriate asset allocation and disciplined security and fund selection, the Bank’s in-house investment team targets long-term capital growth while seeking to minimize downside risk. The Company's internally developed, research-driven process is managed by a skilled team of portfolio managers and analysts. The Company builds portfolios consisting of the best investment ideas, focusing on individual global equities, fixed income securities, exchange-traded funds, and mutual funds.

The Company offers a wide range of services to commercial enterprises, non-profit organizations, and individuals. The Company emphasizes service to consumers and small- and medium-sized businesses in its market area. The Company originates commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans, commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans, construction loans, consumer loans, and residential real estate loans (including one-to-four family and home equity lines of credit), and accepts savings, money market, time, and demand deposits. In addition, the Company offers a wide range of commercial and personal banking services which include cash management, online banking, mobile banking, and global payments.

The Company’s results of operations are largely dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on loans and securities and interest paid on deposits and borrowings, and non-interest income largely from its wealth management services. The results of operations are affected by the level of income and fees from loans, deposits, as well as operating expenses, the

provision for (release of) credit losses, the impact of federal and state income taxes, the relative levels of interest rates, and local and national economic activity.

Through the Bank, the Company focuses on wealth management, the commercial banking business, and private banking for clients, including residential lending and personal banking. Within the commercial loan portfolio, the Company has traditionally been a CRE lender. However, in recent years the Company has diversified commercial operations within the areas of C&I lending to include Renewable Energy, and Innovation Banking, which works with primarily New England-based entrepreneurs, and asset-based lending that helps companies throughout New England and New York grow by borrowing against existing assets. Through its renewable energy lending efforts, the Company provides financing for the developers and operators of commercial renewable energy projects.

This merger will expand the Company's presence in Massachusetts through the addition of Northmark’swhich added three ~~full-service~~ banking offices in Massachusetts. The Company paid total consideration of $62.8 million, which consisted of 788,137 shares of Cambridge Bancorp common stock issued to Northmark shareholders. The transaction included the ~~attractive communities~~assumption of ~~North Andover, Andover~~$316.5 million in loans and ~~Winchester, Massachusetts.~~the acquisition of $373.0 million in deposits, excluding fair value adjustments.

Critical Accounting estimates

Estimates and assumptions are necessary in the application of certain accounting policies and can be susceptible to significant change. Critical accounting estimates are defined as those that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had, or could have a material impact on the Company's financial condition of results of operation. The Company considers the allowance for credit losses and income taxes to be its critical accounting estimates.

See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Critical Accounting Estimates” in the Company's 2021 Annual Report, for a detailed discussion of the Company’s critical accounting estimates.

Recent Accounting Developments

See Note 4 - Recently Issued Accounting Guidance to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for details of recently issued accounting pronouncements and their expected impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

COVID-19

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was reported in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization has declared the outbreak to constitute a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern.” The COVID-19 pandemic and countermeasures taken to contain its spread have caused economic and financial disruptions globally.

The impact of the pandemic on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and its customers had not fully manifested in 2020 or 2021. The fiscal stimulus and relief programs appear to have delayed any materially adverse financial impact to the Company. Once these stimulus programs have been exhausted, loan credit metrics may worsen, and credit losses may ultimately materialize. The magnitude of future credit losses may be affected by the impact of COVID-19 on individuals and businesses in the long and short term. However, the COVID-19 situation remains dynamic, and the duration and severity of its impact on the Company's business and results of operations in future periods remains uncertain. The extent of the continued impact of COVID-19 on the operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, actions taken in response to the pandemic, the speed and effectiveness of vaccine and treatment developments and their deployment, including public adoption rates of COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots, and their effectiveness against emerging variants of COVID-19, such as BA.4 and BA.5 subvariants, a potential resurgence following a decline in the outbreak, and impact on the Company's customers, employees, and vendors, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

If the COVID-19 pandemic or its adverse effects become more severe or prevalent or are prolonged in the locations where the Company conducts business, or the Company experiences more pronounced disruptions in its business or operations, or in economic activity and demand for its products and services generally, the Company's business and results of operations in future periods could be materially adversely affected.

Investment Securities

The Company’s securities portfolio consists of securities available for sale (“AFS”) and securities held to maturity (“HTM”). The largest component of the securities portfolio is mortgage-backed securities, all of which are issued by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises.

Securities available for sale consist of certain U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises (“GSE”) obligations, U.S. GSE mortgage-backed securities and corporate debt securities. These securities are carried at fair value, and unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable income taxes, are recognized as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

The fair value of securities available for sale totaled ~~$174.0~~$158.3 million and included gross unrealized gains of ~~$23,000~~$10,000 and gross unrealized losses of ~~$20.1~~$28.6 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022. At December 31, 2021, the fair value of securities available for sale totaled $197.8 million and included gross unrealized gains of $1.2 million and gross unrealized losses of $4.7 million.

Securities classified as held to maturity consist of certain U.S. GSE mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt securities, and state, county, and municipal securities. Securities held to maturity as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 are carried at their amortized cost of ~~$1.11~~$1.07 billion. At December 31, 2021, the amortized cost of securities held to maturity totaled $977.1 million.

The following table sets forth the fair value of available for sale investment securities, the amortized costs of held to maturity investment securities, and the percentage distribution at the dates indicated:

Loans

The Company’s lending activities are conducted principally in Eastern Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire. The Company grants single- and multi-family residential loans, C&I loans, CRE loans, construction loans, and a variety of consumer loans. Most of the loans granted by the Company are secured by real estate collateral. Repayment of the Company’s residential loans is generally dependent on the health of the employment market in the borrowers’ geographic areas and that of the general economy, with liquidation of the underlying real estate collateral being typically viewed as the primary source of repayment in the event of borrower default. The repayment of C&I loans depends primarily on the cash flow and credit worthiness of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. As borrower cash flow may be difficult to predict, liquidation of the underlying collateral securing these loans is typically viewed as the primary source of repayment in the event of borrower default. However, collateral typically consists of equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, or other business assets that may fluctuate in value, so the liquidation of collateral in the event of default is often an insufficient source of repayment. For renewable energy loans, cash flow is generally dependent on energy output and is generated from the contracted sale of energy credits or wholesale energy sales as well as state mandated incentive programs. For PPP loans, the SBA generally guarantees 100% of the PPP loans made to eligible borrowers. The entire principal amount of the borrower’s PPP loan, including any accrued interest, is eligible to be reduced by the loan forgiveness amount subject to program requirements. The Company’s CRE loans are primarily made based on the cash flow from the collateral property and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower, with liquidation of the underlying real estate collateral typically being viewed as the primary source of repayment in the event of borrower default. The Company’s construction loans are primarily made based on the borrower’s expected ability to execute and the future completed value of the collateral property, with sale of the underlying real estate collateral typically being viewed as the primary source of repayment.

Residential Mortgage. Residential real estate loans held in portfolio were ~~$1.48~~$1.52 billion at ~~June~~September 30, 2022, an increase of ~~$67.5~~$101.0 million, or ~~4.8%~~7.1%, from $1.42 billion at December 31, 2021, and consisted of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans or loans for

the construction thereof. The residential mortgage portfolio represented 42% and 43% of total loans at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The average loan balance outstanding in the residential portfolio was ~~$516,000~~$524,000 and the largest individual residential mortgage loan outstanding was $5.5 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, this loan was performing in accordance with its original terms.

The Bank offers fixed and adjustable-rate residential mortgage and construction loans with maturities up to 30 years. One-to-four family residential mortgage loans are generally underwritten according to Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) or Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) guidelines and refer to loans that conform to such guidelines as “conforming loans.” The Bank generally originates and purchases both fixed and adjustable-rate mortgage loans in amounts up to the maximum conforming loan limits as established by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which increased to $647,200 in 2022 from $548,250 in 2021, for one-unit properties. In addition, the Bank also offers loans above conforming lending limits typically referred to as “jumbo” loans and interest only loans. These loans are typically underwritten to jumbo conforming guidelines; however, the Bank may choose to hold a jumbo loan within its portfolio with underwriting criteria that does not exactly match conforming guidelines. The Bank may also, from time to time, purchase residential loans that are either jumbo, conforming, or meet its Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) requirements. Purchases have historically been made to satisfy CRA requirements for lending to low- and moderate-income borrowers within the Bank's CRA Assessment Area.

Generally, residential construction loans are based on complete value per plans and specifications, with loan proceeds used to construct the house for single family primary residence. Loans are provided for terms up to 12 months during the construction phase, with loan-to-values that generally do not exceed 80% on as complete basis. The loans then convert to permanent financing at terms up to 360 months.

The Company does not offer reverse mortgages, nor does it offer loans that provide for negative amortization of principal, such as “Option ARM” loans, where the borrower can pay less than the interest owed on the loan, resulting in an increased principal balance during the life of the loan. The Company does not offer “subprime loans” (loans that are made with low down payments to borrowers with weakened credit histories typically characterized by payment delinquencies, previous charge-offs, judgments, bankruptcies, or borrowers with questionable repayment capacity as evidenced by low credit scores or high debt-burden ratios) or Alt-A loans (defined as loans having less than full documentation).

Residential real estate loans are originated both for sale to the secondary market, as well as for retention in the Bank’s loan portfolio. The decision to sell a loan to the secondary market or retain within the portfolio is determined based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the Bank’s asset/liability position, the current interest rate environment, and customer preference.

Indemnification. In general, the Company does not sell loans with recourse, except to the extent that it arises from standard loan-sale contract provisions. These provisions cover violations of representations and warranties and, under certain circumstances, first payment default by borrowers. These indemnifications may include the repurchase of loans by the Company and are considered customary provisions in the secondary market for conforming mortgage loan sales. Repurchases and losses have been rare, and no provision is made for losses at the time of sale. There were no such repurchases for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

The Company was servicing mortgage loans sold to others without recourse of approximately ~~$162.9~~$157.0 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and $170.8 million at December 31, 2021.

Loans sold with the retention of servicing typically result in the capitalization of servicing rights. Loan servicing rights are included in other assets and subsequently amortized as an offset to other income over the estimated period of servicing. The net balance of capitalized servicing rights totaled ~~$1.0 million~~$964,000 and $1.1 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Commercial Mortgage ~~(CRE)~~("CRE").

The CRE loan portfolio represented 46% and 45% of total loans at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The average loan balance outstanding in this portfolio was~~$2.1~~ $2.2 million, and the largest individual CRE loan outstanding was ~~$29.3~~$29.2 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, this commercial mortgage was performing in accordance with its original terms.

CRE loans are secured by a variety of property types, inclusive of multi-family dwellings, retail facilities, office buildings, commercial mixed use, lodging, industrial and warehouse properties, and other specialized properties.

Generally, CRE loans are for terms of up to 10 years, with loan-to-values that generally do not exceed 75%. Amortization schedules are long-term, and thus, a balloon payment is generally due at maturity. Under most circumstances, the Bank will offer to rewrite or otherwise extend the loan at prevailing interest rates.

Generally, commercial construction loans are speculative in nature, with loan proceeds used to acquire and develop real estate property for sale or rental. Loans are typically provided for terms up to 36 months during the construction phase, with loan-to-values that generally do not exceed 75% on both an “as is” and “as complete and stabilized” basis. Construction projects are primarily for the development of residential property types, inclusive of one-to-four family and multifamily properties.

Home Equity. The home equity portfolio totaled ~~$91.8~~$94.7 million and $88.0 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The home equity portfolio represented 3% of total loans at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the largest home equity line of credit was ~~$3.5~~$3.5 million and had an outstanding balance of $2.8 million. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, this line of credit was performing in accordance with its original terms.

Home equity lines of credit are extended as both first and second mortgages on owner-occupied residential properties in the Bank’s market area. Home equity lines of credit are generally underwritten with the same criteria that the Company uses to underwrite one-to-four family residential mortgage loans.

Home equity lines of credit are revolving lines of credit, which generally have a term between 15 and 20 years, with draws available for the first 10 years. The 15-year lines of credit are interest only during the first 10 years and amortize on a five-year basis thereafter. The 20-year lines of credit are interest only during the first 10 years and amortize on a 10-year basis thereafter. The Company generally originates home equity lines of credit with loan-to-value ratios of up to 80% when combined with the principal balance of the existing first mortgage loan, although loan-to-value ratios may occasionally exceed 80% on a case-by-case basis. Maximum combined loan-to-values are determined based on an applicant’s loan/line amount and the estimated property value. Lines of credit above $1.0 million generally will not exceed combined loan-to-value of 75%. Rates are adjusted monthly based on changes in a designated market index. The Company also offers home equity term loans, which are extended as second mortgages on owner-occupied residential properties in its market area. Home equity term loans are fixed rate second mortgage loans, which generally have a term between five and 20 years.

Commercial and Industrial (“C&I”). The C&I portfolio totaled ~~$268.2~~$295.9 million and $269.4 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The C&I portfolio represented 8% of total loans at both ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The average loan balance outstanding in this portfolio was ~~$584,000,~~$685,000, and the largest individual C&I loan outstanding was ~~$14.0~~$18.0 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, this loan was performing in accordance with its original terms.

The Company’s C&I loan customers represent various small- and middle-market established businesses involved in professional and financial services, accommodation and food services, utilities, health care, wholesale trade, manufacturing, distribution, retailing, and non-profits. Most clients are privately owned businesses with markets that range from local to national in scope. Many of the loans to this segment are secured by liens on corporate assets and the personal guarantees of the principals. The Company also makes loans to entrepreneurial and technology businesses, where regional economic strength or weakness impacts the relative risks in this loan category, in addition to renewable energy lending which is more specialized in nature. The Company has expanded its exposure within renewable energy lending but otherwise there are no significant concentrations in any one business sector, and loan risks are generally diversified among many borrowers.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, commercial renewable energy loans totaled ~~$107.5~~$109.3 million and the average loan balance outstanding in this portfolio was $2.3 million. The largest individual loan outstanding was ~~$7.8~~$7.7 million and was performing in accordance with its original terms at ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Consumer Loans. The consumer loan portfolio totaled ~~$44.1~~$40.9 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and $35.6 million at December 31, 2021. Consumer loans represented 1% of the total loan portfolio at both ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The average loan balance outstanding in this portfolio was ~~$15,000~~$14,000 and the largest individual consumer loan outstanding was ~~$1.9~~$2.5 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, this loan was performing in accordance with its original terms.

Consumer loans include secured and unsecured loans, lines of credit, and personal installment loans. Unsecured consumer loans generally have greater risk compared to longer-term loans secured by improved, owner-occupied real estate, particularly consumer loans that are secured by rapidly depreciable assets. The secured consumer loans and lines portfolio are generally fully secured by pledged assets, such as bank accounts or investments.

Loan Portfolio Maturities. The following table summarizes the dollar amount of loans maturing in the Company's portfolio based on their loan type and contractual terms to maturity at ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The table does not include any estimate of prepayments, which can significantly shorten the average life of all loans and may cause the actual repayment experience to differ from that shown below. Demand loans, loans having no stated repayment schedule or maturity, and overdraft loans are reported as being due in one year or less.

Nonperforming Loans and TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCTURINGS (“TDRs”)

The composition of nonperforming loans is as follows:


	June 30,			December 31,			September 30,			December 31,
	2022			2021			2022			2021
	(dollars in thousands)						(dollars in thousands)

Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total assets		0.12	%		0.11	%		0.12	%		0.11	%

Total non-performing loans increased by ~~$493,000,~~$997,000, or ~~9.1%~~18.5%, at ~~June~~September 30, 2022, as compared to December 31, 2021, primarily due to an increase in residential and home equity loans on non-accrual.

The Company continues to closely monitor the portfolio of non-performing loans for which management has concerns regarding the ability of the borrowers to perform. The majority of the loans are secured by real estate and are considered to have adequate collateral value to cover the loan balances at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, although such values may fluctuate with changes in the economy and the real estate market. In addition to the monitoring and review of loan performance internally, the Company has contracted with an independent organization to review the Company’s C&I and CRE loan portfolios. This independent review was performed in each of the past five years.

Non-accrual Loans. Loans are typically placed on non-accrual status when any payment of principal and/or interest is 90 days or more past due unless the collateral is sufficient to cover both principal and interest and the loan is in the process of collection. The Company monitors closely the performance of its loan portfolio. The status of delinquent loans, as well as situations identified as potential problems, is reviewed on a regular basis by management.

Troubled Debt Restructurings. Loans are considered restructured in a troubled debt restructuring when the Company has granted concessions to a borrower due to the borrower’s financial condition that it otherwise would not have considered. These concessions may include modifications of the terms of the debt such as deferral of payments, extension of maturity, reduction of principal balance, reduction of the stated interest rate other than normal market rate adjustments, or a combination of these concessions. Debt may be bifurcated with separate terms for each tranche of the restructured debt. Restructuring a loan in lieu of aggressively enforcing the collection of the loan may benefit the Company by increasing the ultimate probability of collection.

Restructured loans are classified as accruing or non-accruing based on management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan. Loans which are already on non-accrual status at the time of the restructuring generally remain on nonaccrual status for approximately six months or longer before management considers such loans for return to accruing status. Accruing restructured loans are placed into non-accrual status if and when the borrower fails to comply with the restructured terms and management deems it unlikely that the borrower will return to a status of compliance in the near term. Troubled debt restructurings are individually evaluated for credit losses.

Pursuant to Section 4013 of the CARES Act, financial institutions could suspend the requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for modifications made before December 31, 2020 to loans that were current as of December 31, 2019. As a result of the enactment of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 in January 2021, the suspension of TDR accounting was extended to and expired on January 1, 2022. The requirement that a loan be not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019 was still applicable. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impact to customers, a short-term modification program that complied with the CARES Act was implemented to provide temporary payment relief to those borrowers directly impacted by COVID-19. The deferred payments along with interest accrued during the deferral period are due and payable on the maturity date. Under issued guidance, provided that these loans were current as of either year end or the date of the modification, these loans were not considered TDR loans at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and will not be reported as past due during the deferral period. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had no loans in deferral.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The following table summarizes the changes in the Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans for the periods indicated:


	At and For the Six Months Ended			At and For the Year Ended			At and For the Nine Months Ended			At and For the Year Ended
	June 30,			December 31,			September 30,			December 31,

Average loans outstanding (net of unearned fees and deferred costs)	$	3,408,952		$	3,240,876		$	3,468,630		$	3,240,876
Loans on non-accrual	$	5,138		$	4,628		$	5,644		$	4,628

Net (charge-offs) recoveries to average loans outstanding - Total		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%
Non-accrual loans to loans outstanding at period end		0.15	%		0.16	%		0.16	%		0.16	%
Allowance for credit losses to total loans (ex. PPP loans)		0.97	%		1.05	%		0.96	%		1.05	%
Ratio of allowance for credit losses on loans to loans on non-accrual		664.15	%		745.38	%		615.66	%		745.38	%
Ratio of allowance for credit losses to loans outstanding		0.97	%		1.04	%		0.96	%		1.04	%

The level of charge-offs depends on many factors, including the national and regional economy. Cyclical lagging factors may result in charge-offs being higher than historical levels. Although the allowance is allocated between categories, the entire allowance is available to absorb losses attributable to all loan categories. Management believes that the allowance for credit losses is adequate.

The following table presents the allocation of the allowance for credit losses for loans by loan category:


	June 30, 2022								December 31, 2021								September 30, 2022								December 31, 2021

Sources of Funds

General. Deposits traditionally have been the Company's primary source of funds for its investment and lending activities. The Company also borrows from the FHLB of Boston or the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (“FRB of Boston”) and utilizes brokered deposits to supplement cash flow needs, to lengthen the maturities of liabilities for interest rate risk management purposes, and to manage its cost of funds. The Company’s additional sources of funds are scheduled payments and prepayments of principal and interest on loans and investment securities, fee income, and proceeds from the sales of loans and securities.

Deposits. The Company accepts deposits primarily from customers in the communities in which its branches and offices are located, as well as from small- and medium-sized businesses and other customers throughout its lending area. The Company relies on its competitive pricing and products, convenient locations, and client service to attract and retain deposits. The Company offers a variety of deposit accounts with a range of interest rates and terms. Deposit accounts consist of relationship checking for consumers and businesses, statement savings accounts, certificates of deposit, money market accounts, interest on lawyer trust accounts, commercial and regular checking accounts, and individual retirement accounts. Deposit rates and terms are based primarily on current business strategies, market interest rates, liquidity requirements, and the Company's deposit growth goals. The Company may also access the brokered deposit market for funding.

The following table sets forth the Company’s deposits for the periods indicated:


	June 30, 2022					December 31, 2021					September 30, 2022					December 31, 2021

At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had a total of ~~$124.3~~$117.3 million in certificates of deposit, excluding brokered deposits, of which ~~$101.4~~$96.0 million had remaining maturities of one year or less. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a total of ~~$1.5~~$100.7 million and $2.7 million of brokered deposits, respectively.

Borrowings. Total borrowings were ~~$252.9~~$294.5 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022, an increase of ~~$236.4~~$277.9 million, as compared to $16.5 million at December 31, 2021. The Company’s borrowings consisted of advances from the FHLB of Boston. FHLB of Boston advances are collateralized by a blanket pledge agreement on the Company’s FHLB of Boston stock and residential mortgages held in the Bank’s portfolios.

The Company’s remaining borrowing capacity at the FHLB of Boston at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was approximately ~~$444.8~~$386.0 million. In addition, the Company has a $10.0 million line of credit with the FHLB of Boston.

The Company had no borrowings outstanding with the FRB of Boston at ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The Company’s borrowing capacity at the FRB of Boston at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was approximately ~~$483.2~~$458.2 million.

Net Interest Margin

Net interest income represents the difference between interest earned, primarily on loans and investments, and interest paid on funding sources, primarily deposits and borrowings. Interest rate spread is the difference between the average rate earned on total interest-earning

assets and the average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is the amount of net interest income, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The average rate earned on earning assets is the amount of annualized taxable equivalent interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities is equal to annualized interest expense as a percentage of average interest-bearing liabilities.

The following table sets forth the distribution of the Company’s daily average assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity, and average rates earned or paid on a fully taxable equivalent basis for each of the periods indicated:


	Three Months Ended																											Three Months Ended

MArket Risk and Asset Liability Management

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Company’s market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in its investment, borrowing, lending and deposit gathering activities, and within the Company’s wealth management operations. To that end, management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure.

The Company’s profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact the Company’s earnings to the extent that the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or on the same basis. The Company monitors the impact of changes in interest rates on its net interest income using several tools.

The Company’s primary objective in managing interest rate risk is to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company’s net interest income and capital, while structuring the Company’s asset-liability structure to obtain the maximum yield-cost spread on that structure. The Company relies primarily on its asset-liability structure to control interest rate risk.

Interest Rate Sensitivity. The Company actively manages its interest rate sensitivity position. The objectives of interest rate risk management are to control exposure of net interest income to risks associated with interest rate movements and to achieve sustainable growth in net interest income. Responsibility for the management of the Company’s interest rate sensitivity position falls under the authority of the Company's Board of Directors (the “Board”) which, in turn, has assigned authority for its formulation, revision and administration to the Risk Committee of the Board ~~of Directors~~ who reviews, approves and reports on information provided by the Investment and Asset/Liability Committee (the “ALCO”). The Company manages interest rate sensitivity by changing the mix, pricing, and re-pricing characteristics of its assets and liabilities, through the management of its investment portfolio, its offerings of loan and selected deposit terms, and through wholesale funding. Wholesale funding consists of, but is not limited to, multiple sources, including borrowings with the FHLB of Boston, the FRB of Boston’s discount window, and certificates of deposit from institutional brokers.

The Company uses several tools to manage its interest rate risk including interest rate sensitivity analysis, or gap analysis, market value of portfolio equity analysis, interest rate simulations under various rate scenarios, and net interest margin reports. The results of these reports are compared to limits established by the Company’s ALCO policies and appropriate adjustments may be made if the results are outside the established limits.

The following table demonstrates the annualized result of an interest rate simulation (excluding purchase accounting adjustments and PPP fee income) and the estimated effect that a parallel interest rate shift, or “instantaneous shock,” in the yield curve and subjective adjustments in deposit pricing might have on the Company’s projected net interest income over the next 24 months.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022:


	Year 1	Year 2	Year 1	Year 2
Change in Interest Rates (in Basis Points)	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
Parallel rate shocks
+300	(4.3)	11.8	0.6	19.4
+200	(2.9)	9.6	0.4	15.8

The following table demonstrates the annualized result of an interest rate simulation (excluding purchase accounting adjustments and PPP fee income) and the estimated effect that a gradual interest rate shift in the yield curve and subjective adjustments in deposit pricing might have on the Company’s projected net interest income over the next 24 months.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022:


	Year 1	Year 2	Year 1	Year 2
Change in Interest Rates (in Basis Points)	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
Gradual rate shifts
+200	(2.1)	7.4	1.6	15.1

These simulations assume that there is no growth in interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities over the next 12 and 24 months. The changes to net interest income shown above are in compliance with the Company’s policy guidelines.

These estimates of changes in the Company’s net interest income require us to make certain assumptions including loan- and mortgage-related investment prepayment speeds, reinvestment rates, and deposit maturities and decay rates. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Company cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Although the analysis provides an indication of the Company's interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such estimates are not intended to, and do not, provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates and will differ from actual results.

Economic Value of Equity Analysis. The Company also analyzes the sensitivity of the Bank’s financial condition to changes in interest rates through its economic value of equity model. This analysis measures the difference between estimated changes in the present value of the Bank’s assets and estimated changes in the present value of the Bank’s liabilities assuming various changes in current interest rates.

The Bank’s economic value of equity analysis as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, estimated that, in the event of an instantaneous 200 basis point increase in interest rates, the Bank would experience a ~~3.0%~~1.3% decrease in the economic value of equity for the next 12 months, resulting in an economic value of equity ratio of ~~13.2%~~14.1%. At the same date, the analysis estimated that, in the event of an instantaneous 100 basis point decrease in interest rates, the Bank would experience a ~~7.8%~~3.6 decrease in the economic value of equity, resulting in an economic value of equity ratio of ~~11.5%~~12.6%. The estimates within the economic value of equity calculation are significantly impacted by management’s assumption that the value of non-maturity deposits do not fall below their stated balance as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. This assumption has the impact of increasing the Bank’s economic value of equity in the falling rate scenario as lower market rates increase the value of the loan and investment portfolios while the value of the non-maturity deposit base remains static. The Company believes retaining customer relationships is the most desirable strategy over the long term.

The estimates of changes in the economic value of the Company's equity require us to make certain assumptions including loan- and mortgage-related investment prepayment speeds, reinvestment rates, and deposit maturities and decay rates. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Company cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on the economic value of its equity. Although the economic value of equity analysis provides an indication of the Company's interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such estimates are not intended to, and do not, provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on the economic value of the Company's equity and will differ from actual results.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices. The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration of changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of operations. Unlike industrial companies, the Company's assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, generally speaking, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.

Liquidity. Liquidity is defined as the Company’s ability to generate adequate cash to meet its needs for day-to-day operations and material long- and short-term commitments. Liquidity risk is the risk of potential loss if the Company were unable to meet its funding requirements at a reasonable cost. The Company manages its liquidity based on demand and specific events and uncertainties to meet current and future financial and contractual obligations of a short-term nature. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity is to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers, as well as increase to earnings enhancement opportunities in a changing marketplace.

5254

The Company’s liquidity position is managed on a daily basis as part of the daily settlement function and continuously as part of the formal asset liability management process. The Bank’s liquidity is maintained by managing its core deposits as the primary source, selling investment securities, selling loans in the secondary market, borrowing from the FHLB of Boston and FRB of Boston, and purchasing wholesale certificates of deposit as its secondary sources. At ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had access to funds totaling ~~$1.45~~$1.28 billion.

The sources of funds for dividends paid by the Company are dividends received from the Bank and liquid funds held by the Company. The Company and the Bank are regulated enterprises and their abilities to pay dividends are subject to regulatory review and restriction. Certain regulatory and statutory restrictions exist regarding dividends, loans, and advances from the Bank to the Company. Generally, the Bank has the ability to pay dividends to the Company subject to minimum regulatory capital requirements.

Quarterly, the Risk Committee reviews the Company’s liquidity needs and reports any findings (if required) to the ~~Company’s Board of Directors.~~Board.

Capital Adequacy. Total shareholders’ equity was ~~$442.1~~$446.3 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2022, as compared to $437.8 million at December 31, 2021. The Company’s equity increased primarily due to net income of ~~$27.0~~$41.6 million, partially offset by unrealized losses on the available for sale investment portfolio of ~~$12.4~~$18.8 million and dividend payments of ~~$8.9~~$13.4 million. Book value per share at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 amounted to ~~$63.09~~$63.69 and $62.83, respectively.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company and the Bank exceeded the regulatory minimum levels to be considered “well-capitalized.” See Note 13 - Shareholders' equity to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of regulatory capital requirements.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments primarily include commitments to originate and sell loans, standby letters of credit, unused lines of credit, and unadvanced portions of construction loans. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in these particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments, standby letters of credit and unadvanced portions of construction loans is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements. The Company's significant off-balance-sheet arrangements consist of the following:

•

commitments to originate and sell loans,

•

standby and commercial letters of credit,

•

unused lines of credit,

•

unadvanced portions of construction loans,

•

unadvanced portions of other loans,

•

loan related derivatives, and

•

risk participation agreements.

Off-balance-sheet arrangements are more fully discussed within Note 11 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk. to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

The information required by this item is included in Item 2 of this report under “Market Risk and Asset Liability Management.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 for recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting the information the Company is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

The effectiveness of a system of disclosure controls and procedures is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of the Company's systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time. Due to such inherent limitations, there can be no assurance that any system of disclosure controls and procedures will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting. During the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries may be parties to various claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of their normal business activities. Although the ultimate outcome of these suits, if any, cannot be ascertained at this time, it is the opinion of management that none of these matters, even if it resolved adversely to the Company, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position. The Company is not currently party to any material pending legal proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

For a discussion of the potential risks and uncertainties, please refer to the "Risk Factors" sections in the 2021 Annual Report, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Aside from the following risk factors, ~~which replace the risk factor subsection in the 2021 Annual Report entitled “Risks Related to Acquisitions” in its entirety,~~ there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the 2021 Annual Report.

Risks Related to Acquisitions

The risks presented by acquisitions, such as the ~~proposed~~recently completed Northmark Merger, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The business strategy of the Company may include growth through acquisition such as the ~~proposed~~recently completed Northmark Merger. Any such future acquisitions will be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in acquisitions. These risks may include, among other things:

•

our ability to realize anticipated cost savings;

•

the difficulty of integrating operations and personnel, and the loss of key employees;

•

the potential disruption of our or the acquired company’s ongoing business in such a way that could result in decreased revenues, the inability of our management to maximize our financial and strategic position;

•

the inability to maintain uniform standards, controls, procedures, and policies; and

•

the impairment of relationships with the acquired company’s employees and customers as a result of changes in ownership and management.

The Company cannot provide any assurance that we will be successful in overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with acquisitions. Our inability to overcome these risks could have an adverse effect on the achievement of our business strategy and results of operations.

The Northmark Merger is subject to the receipt of consents and approvals from governmental authorities that may delay the date of completion of the Northmark Merger or impose conditions that could have an adverse effect on the Company.

Before the Northmark Merger may be completed, various consents, approvals, waiver or non-objections must be obtained from state and federal governmental authorities, including the FDIC, the Federal Reserve, the Massachusetts Commissioner of Banks, the Massachusetts Housing Partnership, and the Co-Operative Central Bank. Satisfying the requirements of these governmental authorities may delay the date of completion of the Northmark Merger. In addition, these governmental authorities may include conditions on the completion of the Northmark Merger, or require changes to the terms of the Northmark Merger. While the Company and Northmark do not currently expect that any such conditions or changes would result in a material adverse effect on the Company, there can be no assurance that they will not, and such conditions or changes could have the effect of delaying completion of the Northmark Merger, or imposing additional costs on or limiting the revenues of the Company following the Northmark Merger, any of which might have a material adverse effect on the Company following the Northmark Merger. The parties are not obligated to complete the Northmark Merger should any regulatory approval contain a non-standard condition, restriction or requirement that the Company’s board of directors reasonably determines in good faith would, individually or in the aggregate, materially reduce the benefits of the Northmark Merger to such a degree that the Company would not have entered into the merger agreement had such condition, restriction or requirement been known at the date of the merger agreement.

~~Failure to complete the Northmark Merger could negatively impact the stock price of the Company and future businesses and financial results of the Company.~~

~~If the Northmark Merger is not completed, the ongoing businesses of the Company may be adversely affected, and the Company will be subject to several risks, including the following:~~

•

the Company will be required to pay certain costs relating to the Northmark Merger, whether or not the Northmark Merger is completed, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor and printing fees; and

•

matters relating to the Northmark Merger may require substantial commitments of time and resources by management of the Company, which could otherwise have been devoted to serving existing customers or other opportunities that may have been beneficial to the Company as an independent company.

The integration of the Company and Northmark will present significant challenges that may result in the combined business not operating as effectively as expected or in the failure to achieve some or all of the anticipated benefits of the transaction.

The benefits and synergies expected to result from the Northmark Merger will depend in part on whether the operations of Northmark can be integrated in a timely and efficient manner with those of the Company. The Company will face challenges in consolidating its functions with those of Northmark, and integrating the organizations, procedures and operations of the two businesses. The integration of the Company and Northmark will be complex and time-consuming, and the management of both companies will have to dedicate substantial time and resources to it. These efforts could divert management’s focus and resources from serving existing customers or other strategic opportunities and from day-to-day operational matters during the integration process. Failure to successfully integrate the operations of the Company and Northmark could result in the failure to achieve some of the anticipated benefits from the transaction, including cost savings and other operating efficiencies, and the Company may not be able to capitalize on the existing relationships of Northmark to the extent anticipated, or it may take longer, or be more difficult or expensive than expected to achieve these goals. This could have an adverse effect on the business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of the Company and/or the Bank after the transaction.

Unanticipated costs relating to the Northmark Merger could reduce the Company’s future earnings per share.

The Company and the Bank believe that each has reasonably estimated the likely costs of integrating the operations of the Bank and Northmark, and the incremental costs of operating as a combined company. However, it is possible that unexpected transaction costs such as taxes, fees or professional expenses or unexpected future operating expenses such as increased personnel costs or increased taxes, as well as other types of unanticipated adverse developments, could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition of the combined company. If unexpected costs are incurred, the Northmark Merger could have a dilutive effect on the Company’s earnings per share. In other words, ifafter the completion of the Northmark Merger, ~~is completed,~~ the earnings per share of the Company’s common stock could be less than anticipated or even less than if the Northmark Merger had not been completed.

Following the Northmark Merger, the Company may not continue to pay dividends at or above the rate currently paid by the Company.

Following the Northmark Merger, the Company’s shareholders may not receive dividends at the same rate that they did prior to the merger for various reasons, including the following:

•

the Company may not have enough cash to pay such dividends due to changes in its cash requirements, capital spending plans, cash flow or financial position;

•

decisions on whether, when and in what amounts to make any future dividends will remain at all times entirely at the discretion of the ~~Company’s board of directors,~~Board, which reserves the right to change the Company’s dividend practices at any time and for any reason; and

•

the amount of dividends that the Company’s subsidiaries may distribute to the Company may be subject to restrictions imposed by state law and restrictions imposed by the terms of any current or future indebtedness that these subsidiaries may incur.

The Company’s shareholders will have no contractual or other legal right to dividends that have not been declared by the ~~Company’s board of directors.~~Board.
