The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The table distinguishes between the changes related to average outstanding balances (changes in volume while holding the initial rate constant) and the changes related to average interest rates (changes in average rates while holding the initial balance constant). The rate/volume variances are allocated to rate. Rate and volume variances are calculated on each line separate as an indication of the magnitude. Line items may not aggregate to the totals due to mix changes.

The results primarily reflect higher earning assets, the result of higher loans held-for-sale during the quarter. Average interest earning assets increased $0.4 billion, or 2 percent as a result of $0.9 billion, or 14 percent growth in the first quarter 2021 was $189 million, flat to the fourth quarter 2020. Higher LHFS average balances wereportfolio partially offset by lower average balances in the warehouseour HFI consumer loan and other HFILGG portfolios. Average earnings assets increased $78 million, reflecting increases of $1.0 billion in average total loans, partially offset by a $667 million decrease in interest-earning deposits deployed to fund these loans and a $283 million decrease in average investment securities due to runoff.

LHFI averaged $14.9 billion for the first quarter of 2021, decreasing $0.8 billion, or 5 percent, from the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by $0.6 billion, or 8 percent, lower average warehouse loan balances consistent with the volume decrease in the overall mortgage market and $0.3 billion, or 6 percent, lower average consumer loans, primarily attributable to a decrease in our residential first mortgage portfolio as loans paid off.

Average total deposits were $20.0$19.7 billion in the firstthird quarter 2021, decreasing $1.0increasing $0.6 billion, or 53 percent, from the fourthsecond quarter 2020.

Operating Segments

    Our operations are conducted through three operating segments: Community Banking, Mortgage Originations, and Mortgage Servicing. The Other segment includes the remaining reported activities. The operating segments have been determined based on the products and services offered and reflect the manner in which financial information is currently evaluated by Management. Each of the operating segments is complementary to each other and because of the interrelationships of the segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities.

    We charge the lines of business for the net charge-offs that occur. In addition to this amount, we charge them for the change in loan balances during the period, applied at the budgeted credit loss factor. The difference between the consolidated provision (benefit) for credit losses and the sum of total net charge-offs and the change in loan balances is assigned to the “Other” segment, which includes the changes related to the economic forecasts, model changes, qualitative adjustments and credit downgrades. The amount assigned to “Other” is allocated back to the lines of business through other noninterest expense.

Mortgage Servicing
    
    The Mortgage Servicing segment services loans when we hold the MSR asset, and subservices mortgage loans for others through a scalable servicing platform on a fee for service basis. The loans we service generate custodial deposits which provide a stable funding source supporting interest-earning asset generation in the Community Banking and Mortgage Originations segments. We earn income from other segments for the use of non-interest bearing escrows. Revenue for serviced and subserviced loans is earned on a contractual fee basis, with the fees varying based on our responsibilities and the delinquency or payment status of the underlying loans. Along with these contractual fees, we may also collect ancillary fees related to these loans. The Mortgage Servicing segment also services residential mortgages for our LHFI portfolio in the Community Banking segment and our own MSR portfolio in the Mortgage Originations segment for which it earns intersegment revenue on a fee per loan basis. Our continued growth in our subservicing business and the strength of our platform has made us the 6th largest subservicer in the nation.

Comparison to Prior Quarter

The Mortgage Servicing segment reported net income of $8$10 million for the quarter ended March 31,September 30, 2021, compared to net income of $13$9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Loan fees and charges decreased $5 million driven by lower ancillary fees and loan processing expense decreased $4 million primarily driven byJune 30, 2021 as a decrease in expenses related to deboarding loans from our servicing platform. These decreases were partially offset byresult of a $3 million increase in compensation and benefits expense driven primarily by higher FTE including hiring in default servicing to service the populationconsistent number of loans in forbearance.serviced and subserviced and slightly higher ancillary fees.

Other

    The Other segment includes the treasury functions, which include the impact of interest rate risk management, balance sheet funding activities and the investment securities portfolios, as well as other expenses of a corporate nature, including corporate staff, risk management, and legal expenses which are charged to the line of business segments. The Other segment charges each operating segment a daily funds transfer pricing rate on their average assets which resets more rapidly than the underlying borrowing costs resulting in an asset sensitive position. In addition, the Other segment includes revenue and expenses not directly assigned or allocated to the Community Banking, Mortgage Originations or Mortgage Servicing segments.

Risk Management

    Certain risks are inherent in our business and include, but are not limited to, operational, strategic, credit, regulatory compliance, legal, reputational, liquidity, market and cybersecurity. We continuously invest in our risk management activities which are focused on ensuring we properly identify, measure and manage such risks across the entire enterprise to maintain safety and soundness and maximize profitability. We hold capital to protect us from unexpected loss arising from these risks.

    A comprehensive discussion of risks affecting us can be found in the Risk Factors section included in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Some of the more significant processes used to manage and control credit, market, liquidity and operational risks are described in the following paragraphs.

Credit Risk

    Credit risk is the risk of loss to us arising from an obligor’s inability or failure to meet contractual payment or performance terms. We provide loans, extend credit, and enter into financial derivative contracts, all of which have related credit risk. We manage credit risk using a thorough process designed to ensure we make prudent and consistent credit decisions. The process was developed with a focus on utilizing risk-based limits and credit concentrations while emphasizing diversification on a geographic, industry and customer level. The process utilizes documented underwriting guidelines, comprehensive documentation standards, and ongoing portfolio monitoring including the timely review and resolution of credits experiencing deterioration. These activities, along with the management of credit policies and credit officers’ delegated authority, are centrally managed by our credit risk team.

19


    We maintain credit limits in compliance with regulatory requirements. Under HOLA, the Bank may not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15 percent of Tier 1 plus Tier 2 capital and any portion of the ACL not included in the Tier 2 capital. This limit was $419$451 million as of March 31,September 30, 2021. We maintain a more conservative maximum internal Bank credit limit than required by HOLA, ofgenerally not exceeding $100 million to any one borrower/obligor relationship, with the exception of warehouse borrower/obligor relationships, which have a higher internal Bank limit of $150 million. During 2020, the Board approved the extension of short-term “overlines” to certain warehouse borrowers as all advances are fully collateralized by residential mortgage loans and this asset class has had very low levels of historical loss, resulting in a temporary increase of the warehouse borrower limit to $200 million. We have a tracking and reporting process to monitor lending concentration levels, and all new commercial credit exposures to a single or related borrower that exceed $50 million and all new warehouse credit exposures to a single or related borrower that exceed $75 million must be approved by the Board of Directors. Exceptions to these levels to strong borrowers are made on a case by case basis, with none exceeding $150 million as of September 30, 2021 or $300 million for warehouse borrowers.

    Our commercial loan portfolio has been built on our relationship-based lending strategy. We provide financing and banking products to our commercial customers in our core banking footprint and will follow those established customer relationships to meet their financing needs in areas outside of our footprint. We have also formed relationship lending on a national scale through our home builder finance and warehouse lending businesses. At March 31,September 30, 2021, we had $11.1$10.8 billion in our commercial loan portfolio with our warehouse lending and home builder finance businesses accounting for 66 percent of the total. Of the remaining commercial loans in our portfolio, the majority of CRE and C&I loans were with customers who have established relationships within our core banking footprint.

    Credit risk within the commercial loan portfolio is managed using concentration limits based on line of business, industry, geography and product type. This is managed through the use of strict underwriting guidelines detailed in credit policies, ongoing loan level reviews, monitoring of the concentration limits and continuous portfolio risk management reporting. The commercial credit policy outlines the risks and underwriting requirements and provides a framework for all credit and lending activities. Our commercial loan credit policies consider maturity and amortization terms, maximum LTVs, minimum debt service coverage ratios, construction loan monitoring procedures, appraisal requirements, pro-forma analysis requirements and thresholds for product specific advance rates.

    We typically originate loans on a recourse basis with full or partial guarantees. On a limited basis, we may approve loans without recourse if sufficient consideration is provided in the loan structure. Non-recourse loans primarily have low LTVs, strong cash flow coverage or other mitigating factors supporting the lack of a guaranty. These guidelines also require an appraisal of pledged collateral prior to closing and on an as-needed basis when market conditions justify. We contract with a variety of independent licensed professional firms to conduct appraisals that are in compliance with our internal commercial credit and appraisal policies and regulatory requirements.

20


    Our commercial loan portfolio includes leveraged lending. The Bank defines a transaction as leveraged when two or more of the following conditions exist: 1) proceeds from the loan are used for buyouts, acquisitions, recapitalization or capital distributions, 2) the borrower's total funded debt to EBITDA ratio is greater than four or Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio is greater than three, 3) the borrower has a high debt to net worth ratio within its industry or sector as defined by internal limits, and 4) debt leverage significantly exceeds industry norms or historical levels for leverage as defined by internal limits. Leveraged lending transactions typically result in leverage ratios that are significantly above industry norms or historical levels. Our leveraged lending portfolio and other loan portfolios with above-average default probabilities tend to behave similarly during a downturn in the general economy or a downturn within a specific sector. Consequently, we take steps to avoid undue concentrations by setting limits consistent with our appetite for risk and our financial capacity. In addition, there are specific underwriting conditions set for our leveraged loan portfolio and there is additional emphasis on certain items beyond the standard underwriting process including synergies, collateral shortfall and projections.

    Our commercial loan portfolio also includes loans that are part of the SNC Program. A SNC is defined as any loan or loan commitment totaling at least $100 million that is shared by three or more federally regulated institutions. On an annual basis, a joint regulatory task force performs a risk assessment of all SNCs. When completed, these risk ratings are shared and our risk rating must be no better than the risk rating listed in the SNC assessment. Exposure and credit quality for SNCs are carefully monitored and reported internally.

    For our CRE portfolio, including owner and nonowner-occupied properties and home builder finance lending, we obtain independent appraisals as part of our underwriting and monitoring process. These appraisals are reviewed by an internal appraisal group that is independent from our sales and credit teams.

    The home builder finance group is a national relationship-based lending platform that focuses on markets with strong housing fundamentals and higher population growth potential. The team primarily originates construction and development
20


loans. We generally lend in metropolitan areas or counties where verifiable market statistics and data are readily available to support underwriting and ongoing monitoring. We also evaluate the jurisdictions and laws, demographic trends (age, population and income), housing characteristics and economic indicators (unemployment, economic growth, household income trends) for the geographies where our borrowers primarily operate. We engage independent licensed professionals to supply market studies and feasibility reports, environmental assessments and project site inspections to complement the procedures we perform internally. Further, we perform ongoing monitoring of the projects including periodic inspections of collateral and annual portfolio and individual credit reviews.

    The consumer loan portfolio has been built on strong underwriting criteria and within concentration limits intended to diversify our risk profile. We have built our consumer loan portfolio by adding high quality first mortgage loans to our balance sheet making up 5247 percent of our total consumer loan portfolio at March 31,September 30, 2021.

    Prior to March 2020 we had continued to strengthen our Community Banking segment by growing our consumer and CRE LHFI. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, subsequent to March 2020 we have focused on managing credit in our CRE and C&I portfolios. The decrease in our commercial loan portfolio of $1.0$1.3 billion, or 911 percent, is mainly due to warehouse repayments outpacing advances from December 31, 2020 to March 31,September 30, 2021.

    Residential first mortgage loans. We originate or purchase various types of conforming and non-conforming fixed and adjustable rate loans underwritten using Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines for the purpose of purchasing or refinancing owner occupied and second home properties. We typically hold certain mortgage loans in LHFI that do not qualify for sale to the Agencies and that have an acceptable yield and risk profile. The LTV requirements on our residential first mortgage loans vary depending on occupancy, property type, loan amount, and FICO scores. Loans with LTVs exceeding 80 percent are required to obtain mortgage insurance. As of March 31,September 30, 2021, loans in this portfolio had an average current FICO score of 736735 and an average current LTV of 5553 percent.

    Home equity. Our home equity portfolio includes HELOANs, second mortgage loans, and HELOCs. These loans require full documentation and are underwritten and priced in an effort to ensure credit quality and loan profitability. Our debt-to-income ratio on HELOANs and HELOCs is capped at 43 percent and 45 percent, respectively. We currently limit the maximum CLTV to 89.99 percent and FICO scores to a minimum of 700. Second mortgage loans and HELOANs are fixed rate loans and are available with terms up to 20 years. HELOC loans are variable-rate loans that contain a 10-year interest only draw period followed by a 20-year amortizing period. As of March 31,September 30, 2021, loans in this portfolio had an average current FICO score of 747750 and an average CLTV of 5053 percent. The decrease in CLTV from the previous quarter is primarily due to a reduction in average outstanding customer balances. At March 31,September 30, 2021, HELOCs and HELOANs in a first lien position totaled $196$236 million.

    Other consumer loans. Our other consumer loan portfolio consists of secured and unsecured loans originated through our indirect lending business, third party closings and our Community Banking segment.

    Warehouse lending. We have a national platform with relationship managers across the country. We offer warehouse lines of credit to other mortgage lenders which allow the lender to fund the closing of residential mortgage loans. Each extension, advance, or draw-down on the line is fully collateralized by residential mortgage loans and is paid off when the lender sells the loan to an outside investor or, in some instances, to the Bank. In response to COVID-19, we have increased credit requirements for government loans and lowered the advance rate for loans that we believe have higher risk.

    Underlying mortgage loans are predominantly originated using the Agencies' underwriting standards. The guideline for debt to tangible net worth is 15 to 1. The aggregate committed amount of adjustable-rate warehouse lines of credit granted to other mortgage lenders at March 31,September 30, 2021 was $11.0 billion, of which $6.6$6.2 billion was outstanding, compared to $10.5$10.0 billion at December 31,September 30, 2020, of which $7.7$7.6 billion was outstanding.

Credit Quality

    Our focus on effectively managing credit risk through our careful underwriting standards and processes has resulted in strong trends in certain credit quality characteristics in our loan portfolios. The credit quality of our loan portfolios is demonstrated by low delinquency levels, minimal charge-offs and low levels of NPLs.

For all loan categories within the consumer and commercial loan portfolio, loans are placed on nonaccrual status when any portion of principal or interest is 90 days past due (or nonperforming), or earlier when we become aware of information
24


indicating that collection of principal and interest is in doubt. While it is the goal of Management to collect on loans, we attempt to work out a satisfactory repayment schedule or modification with past due borrowers and will undertake foreclosure proceedings if the delinquency is not satisfactorily resolved. Our practices regarding past due loans are designed to both assist borrowers in meeting their contractual obligations and minimize losses incurred by the Bank. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued interest income is reversed. Loans return to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are anticipated to be fully collectible.

Payment Deferrals

Beginning in March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, we offered our consumer borrowers principal and interest payment deferrals, forbearance and/or extensions.extensions up to a maximum period of 18 months. Consumer borrowers were not required to provide proof of hardship to be granted forbearance or payment deferral. Typically, payment history is the primary tool used to identify consumer borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. Forbearance or payment deferrals make this determination more challenging. In addition, consumer borrowers who have requested forbearance or payment deferrals are not being aged and remain in the aging category they were in prior to forbearance or payment deferral while they remain in a forbearance or payment deferral status.

    The table below summarizes borrowers in our consumer loan portfolios that are in forbearance or were granted a payment deferral:

As the MSR owner for loans serviced for others, the Agencies require us to advance payments on past due loans as follows:

Principal and InterestTaxes and Insurance
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac4 monthsNo time limit
GNMANo time limitNo time limit

We believe that we have ample liquidity to handle servicing advances related to these loans. We initially provide advances on a short-term basis for loans we subservice and are reimbursed by the MSR owner. Our advance receivable for our subserviced loans is therefore insignificant.

    TDRs are modified loans in which a borrower demonstrates financial difficulties and for which a concession has been granted as a result. Nonperforming TDRs are included in nonaccrual loans. TDRs remain in nonperforming status until a borrower has made payments and is current for at least six consecutive months. Performing TDRs are not considered to be nonaccrual so long as we believe that all contractual principal and interest due under the restructured terms will be collected.

    Since March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, we have offered our consumer and commercial customers principal and interest payment deferrals and extensions.extensions up to a maximum period of 18 months. We considered these programs in the context of whether or not the short-term modifications of these loans would constitute a TDR. We considered the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), interagency guidance and related guidance from the FASB, which provided that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not required to be accounted for as TDRs. As a result, we have determined that these loans are not TDRs. We believe our application of the referenced guidance and accounting for these programs is appropriate.

The ACL was $265$190 million at March 31,September 30, 2021, compared to $280$220 million at December 31, 2020.June 30, 2021. The decrease in the allowance is primarily reflective of changesimprovements in our economic forecast. We continued to apply judgment related to those forecasts and underlying borrower credit as a resultour evaluation of the ongoing COVID-19performance of the LHFI portfolio as borrowers continue to recover from the economic stress caused by the pandemic. We utilized the Moody’s MarchSeptember scenarios in our forecast: a growth forecast, weighted at 30 percent; a baseline forecast, weighted at 40 percent; and an adverse forecast, weighted at 30 percent. The resulting composite forecast for the firstthird quarter of 2021 was slightly better thanimproved as compared to the scenario used in the fourthsecond quarter 2020.2021. Unemployment ends 2021 at 65 percent and will continue to recover in 2022. GDP recovers throughoutcontinues to recover in the last quarter of 2021 from current levels and does not returnreturns to pre-COVID level until 2025.levels in 2023. HPI stays flat throughoutdecreases slightly through 2022, at a lower rate as compared to the scenario used in the second quarter of 2021. Qualitative adjustments reflect our best estimate of the COVID-19 impact on portfolios including estimated impact of government stimulus, forbearance/payment holidays and FRB programs. We judgmentally decreased the qualitative reserves by $3$28 million, driven by a decrease in the model output from Moody's adverse scenario, partially offset by our judgment relating toimprovement in the financial performance and business conditions of previously identified industries and borrowers we believepreviously believed could be more exposed to the stressful conditions in our forecast and a stabilizing portfolio of loans in forbearance.

The ACL as a percentage of LHFI was 1.81.3 percent as of March 31,September 30, 2021 compared to 1.7 percent as of December 31, 2020. Excluding warehouse, the allowance as a percentage of LHFI was 3.12.3 percent at March 31,September 30, 2021 compared to 3.2 percent at December 31, 2020. The decrease in the allowance, as a percentage of LHFI is reflective of the improvement in the economic and credit forecast used during the period and the performance of our portfolio. At March 31,September 30, 2021, we had a 2.6 percent and 1.50.9 percentallowance coverage on our consumer loan portfolio and our commercial loan portfolio, respectively.

Market Risk

    Market risk is the risk of reduced earnings and/or declines in the net market value of the balance sheet due to changes in market rates. Our primary market risk is interest rate risk which impacts our net interest income, fee income related to interest sensitive activities such as mortgage closing and servicing income, and loan and deposit demand.

30


We are subject to interest rate risk due to:

The maturity or repricing of assets and liabilities at different times or for different amounts
Differences in short-term and long-term market interest rate changes
The remaining maturity of various assets or liabilities may shorten or lengthen as interest rates change
30



    Our ALCO, which is composed of our executive officers and certain members of other management, monitors interest rate risk on an ongoing basis in accordance with policies approved by our Board of Directors. The ALCO reviews interest rate positions and considers the impact projected interest rate scenarios have on earnings, capital, liquidity, business strategies, and other factors. However, Management has the latitude to change interest rate positions within certain limits if, in Management's judgment, the change will enhance profitability or minimize risk.

    To assess and manage interest rate risk, sensitivity analysis is used to determine the impact on earnings and the net market value of the balance sheet across various interest rate scenarios, balance sheet trends, and strategies.

Net interest income sensitivity

    Management uses a simulation model to analyze the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates across various interest rate scenarios which demonstrates the level of interest rate risk inherent in the existing balance sheet. The analysis holds the current balance sheet values constant and does not take into account management intervention. In addition, we assume certain correlation rates, often referred to as a “deposit beta”, for interest-bearing deposits, wherein the rates paid to customers change relative to changes in benchmark interest rates. The effect on net interest income over a 12-month time horizon due to hypothetical changes in market interest rates is presented in the table below. In this interest rate shock simulation, as of the periods presented, interest rates have been adjusted by instantaneous parallel changes rather than in a ramp simulation which applies interest rate changes over time. All rates, short-term and long-term, are changed by the same amount (e.g. plus 100 basis points) resulting in the shape of the yield curve remaining unchanged.

    In the net interest income simulations, our balance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity. When interest rates rise our net interest income increases. Conversely, when interest rates fall our net interest income decreases. At March 31, 2021, the $12 million increase in net interest income in the constant scenario as compared to that at December 31, 2020 was primarily driven by the growth in our interest earning assets partially offset by lower short-term market rates.

    The net interest income sensitivity analysis has certain limitations and makes various assumptions. Key elements of this interest rate risk exposure assessment include maintaining a static balance sheet and parallel rate shocks. Future interest rates not moving in a parallel manner across the yield curve, how the balance sheet will respond and shift based on a change in future interest rates and how the Company will respond are not included in this analysis and limit the predictive value of these scenarios.

Economic value of equity

    Management also utilizes EVE, a point in time analysis of the economic value of our current balance sheet position, which measures interest rate risk over a longer term. The EVE calculation represents a hypothetical valuation of equity, and is defined as the market value of assets, less the market value of liabilities, adjusted for the market value of off-balance sheet instruments. The assessment of both the short-term earnings (Net Interest Income Sensitivity) and long-term valuation (EVE) approaches, rather than Net Interest Income Sensitivity alone provides a more comprehensive analysis of interest rate risk exposure.
31


    There are assumptions and inherent limitations in any methodology used to estimate the exposure to changes in market interest rates and as such, sensitivity calculations used in this analysis are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future results. This analysis evaluates risks to the current balance sheet only and does not incorporate future growth assumptions. Additionally, the analysis assumes interest rate changes are instantaneous and the new rate environment is constant but does not include actions Management may undertake to manage risk in response to interest rate changes. Each rate
31


scenario reflects unique prepayment and repricing assumptions. Management derives these assumptions by considering published market prepayment expectations, repricing characteristics, our historical experience, and our asset and liability management strategy. This analysis assumes that changes in interest rates may not affect or could partially affect certain instruments based on their characteristics.

    The following table is a summary of the changes in our EVE that are projected to result from hypothetical changes in market interest rates as well as our internal policy limits for changes in our EVE based on the different scenarios. The interest rates, as of the dates presented, are adjusted by instantaneous parallel rate increases and decreases as indicated in the scenarios shown in the table below.

    Our balance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity in various interest rate scenarios. The increase in EVE as rates rise is the result of the amount of assets that would be expected to reprice exceeding the amount of liabilities expected to reprice. At March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, for each scenario shown, the percentage change in our EVE is within our Board policy limits.

Derivative financial instruments

    As a part of our risk management strategy, we use derivative financial instruments to minimize fluctuation in earnings caused by market risk. We use forward sales commitments to hedge our unclosed mortgage closing pipeline and funded mortgage LHFS. All of our derivatives and mortgage loan production originated for sale are accounted for at fair market value. Changes to our unclosed mortgage closing pipeline are based on changes in fair value of the underlying loan, which is impacted most significantly by changes in interest rates and changes in the probability that the loan will not fund within the terms of the commitment, referred to as a fallout factor or, inversely, a pull-through rate. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage LHFS is managed using corresponding forward sale commitments. The adequacy of these hedging strategies, and the ability to fully or partially hedge market risk, rely on various assumptions or projections, including a fallout factor, which is based on a statistical analysis of our actual rate lock fallout history. For further information, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs)

    Our MSRs are sensitive to interest rate volatility and are highly susceptible to prepayment risk, basis risk, market volatility and changes in the shape of the yield curve. We utilize derivatives, including interest rate swaps and swaptions, as part of our overall hedging strategy to manage the impact of changes in the fair value of the MSRs, however these risk management strategies do not completely eliminate repricing risk. Our hedging strategies rely on assumptions and projections regarding assets and general market factors, many of which are outside of our control. For further information, see Note 7 - Mortgage Servicing Rights, Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Liquidity Risk

    Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not have sufficient funds, at a reasonable cost, to meet current and future cash flow needs as they become due. The liquidity of a financial institution reflects the ability to, at a reasonable cost, meet loan demand, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to take advantage of interest rate and market opportunities. The
32


ability of a financial institution to meet current financial obligations is a function of the balance sheet structure, the ability to liquidate assets, and access to various sources of funds.

Parent Company Liquidity

    The Company currently obtains its liquidity primarily from dividends from the Bank. The primary uses of the Company's liquidity are debt service, operating expenses and the payment of cash dividends to shareholders, which were
32


increased to $0.06 per share in the first quarter 2021. The Company holds $150 million of subordinated debt which is scheduled to mature on November 1, 2030. At March 31,During June 2021, the Bank remitted a $200 million payment to the Company and at September 30, 2021, the Company held $22$223.5 million of cash on deposit at the Bank for approximately 0.7 years of futurewhich is sufficient to cover the cash outflows for an amount sufficientneeded to service the subordinated debt, pay dividends and cover the operating expenses of the Company. In April 2021, the Bank remitted a $51 million payment to the Company and at April 30, 2021 the Company held $71 million of cash on deposit at the Bank, for approximately 2.2 years of future cash outflows for an amount sufficient to service the subordinated debt, pay dividends and cover the operating expense of the Company.more than 10 years.

    The OCC and the FRB regulate all capital distributions made by the Bank, directly or indirectly, to the holding company, including dividend payments. Whether an application or notice is required is based on a number of factors including whether the institution qualifies for expedited treatment under the OCC rules and regulations or if the total amount of all capital distributions (including each proposed capital distribution) for the applicable calendar year exceeds net income for that year to date plus the retained net income for the preceding two years, or the Bank would not be at least adequately capitalized following the dividend. Additional restrictions on dividends apply if the Bank fails the QTL test.test for more than three out of the prior twelve months. As of March 31,September 30, 2021, the Bank is in compliance with the QTL test.test, having qualified assets above the 65 percent requirement for eleven of the prior twelve months. At March 31,September 30, 2021, the Bank is able to pay dividends to the holding company of approximately $626$705 million without submitting an application to the OCC and remain well capitalized.

Bank Liquidity
    
    Our primary sources of funding are deposits from retail and government customers, custodial deposits related to loans we service and FHLB borrowings. We use the FHLB of Indianapolis as a significant source for funding our residential mortgage origination business due to the flexibility in terms which allows us to borrow or repay borrowings as daily cash needs require. The amount we can borrow, or the value we receive for the assets pledged to our liquidity providers, varies based on the amount and type of pledged collateral, as well as the perceived market value of the assets and the "haircut" of the market value of the assets. That value is sensitive to the pricing and policies of our liquidity providers and can change with little or no notice.

    Further, other sources of liquidity include our LHFS portfolio and unencumbered investment securities. We primarily originate agency-eligible LHFS and therefore the majority of new residential first mortgage loan closings are readily convertible to cash, either by selling them as part of our monthly agency sales, RMBS, private party whole loan sales, or by pledging them to the FHLB and borrowing against them. In addition, we have the ability to sell unencumbered investment securities or use them as collateral. At March 31,September 30, 2021, we had $1.9$1.6 billion available in unencumbered investment securities.

    Our primary measure of liquidity is a ratio of ready liquidity to volatile funding, the volatile funds coverage ratio (“VFCR”). The VFCR is a liquidity coverage ratio that is customized to our business and ensures we have adequate coverage to meet our liquidity needs during times of liquidity stress. Volatile funds are the portion of the Bank’s funding identified as being at a higher risk of runoff in times of stress. Ready liquidity consists of cash on reserve at the Federal Reserve and unused borrowing capacity provided by the loan and investments portfolios. The VFCR is calculated, reported, and forecasted daily as part of our liquidity management framework and as of September 30, 2021 was within112 percent and in compliance with our internal policy compliance at 105 percent as of March 31, 2021.limit.
    
    Our liquidity position is continuously monitored and adjustments are made to the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. We balance the liquidity of our loan assets to our available funding sources. Our LHFI portfolio is funded with stable core deposits whereas our warehouse loans and LHFS may be funded with FHLB borrowings and custodial deposits. Warehouse loans are typically more liquid than other loan assets, as loans are paid within a short amount of time, when the lender sells the loan to an outside investor or, in some instances, to the Bank. As not all asset categories require the same level of liquidity, our loan-to-deposit ratio shows how we manage our liquidity position, how much liquidity we have and the agility of our balance sheet. The Company's average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio was 74.468.8 percent for the three months ended March 31,as of September 30, 2021. Excluding warehouse loans, which have draws that typically pay off within a few weeks, and custodial deposits, which represent mortgage escrow accounts on deposit with the Bank, the average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio was 66.360.3 percent for the three months ended March 31,as of September 30, 2021.

33


    As governed and defined by our policy, we maintain adequate excess liquidity levels appropriate to cover unanticipated liquidity needs. In addition to this liquidity, we also maintain targeted minimum levels of unused borrowing capacity as another cushion against unexpected liquidity needs. Each business day, we forecast 90 days of daily cash needs. This allows us to determine our projected near-termnear term daily cash fluctuations and also to plan and adjust, if necessary, future activities. As a result, in an adverse environment, we believe we would be able to make adjustments to operations as required to meet the liquidity needs of our business, including adjusting deposit rates to increase deposits, planning for additional FHLB borrowings, accelerating sales of LHFS (agencies and/or private), selling LHFI or investment securities, borrowing through the

use of repurchase agreements, reducing closings, making changes to warehouse funding facilities, or borrowing from the discount window.

(3)Represents investor custodial accounts and escrows controlled by us in connection with loans serviced or subserviced for others that have been placed on deposit with the Bank.
(4)Total exposure related to uninsured deposits over $250,000 was approximately $5.6$6.0 billion and $5.9 billion at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

    Total deposits decreased $553 million,$0.6 billion, or 3 percent, at March 31,September 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020, primarily driven by a decrease in custodial deposits partially offset by an increase in government deposits.

    We utilize local governmental agencies and other public units as an additional source for deposit funding. At March 31,September 30, 2021, we were required to hold collateral for certain Michigan, California, Indiana, Wisconsin and Ohio government deposits based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the size of individual deposits, FDIC limits and external bank ratings. At March 31,September 30, 2021, collateral held on government deposits was $157$214 million. At March 31,September 30, 2021, government deposit accounts included $541$647 million of certificates of depositCD with maturities typically less than one year and $1.4$1.8 billion of checking and savings accounts.

    Custodial deposits arise due to our servicing or subservicing of loans for others and represent the portion of the investor custodial accounts on deposit with the Bank. For certain subservice agreements, these deposits require us to credit the MSR owner interest against subservicing income. This cost is a component of net loan administration income.

    We participate in the CDARS program, through which certain customer CDs are exchanged for CDs of similar amounts from other participating banks and customers may receive FDIC insurance up to $50 million. This program helps the Bank secure larger deposits and attract and retain customers. At March 31,September 30, 2021, we had $108$107 million of total CDs enrolled in the CDARS program, a decrease of $16$17 million from December 31, 2020.

FHLB Advances

    The FHLB provides loans, also referred to as advances, on a fully collateralized basis, to savings banks and other member financial institutions. We are required to maintain a minimum amount of qualifying collateral securing FHLB advances. In the event of default, the FHLB advance is similar to a secured borrowing, whereby the FHLB has the right to sell the pledged collateral to settle the fair value of the outstanding advances.

    We rely upon advances from the FHLB as a source of funding for the closing or purchase of loans for sale in the secondary market and for providing duration specific short-term and long-term financing. The outstanding balance of FHLB advances fluctuates from time to time depending on our current inventory of mortgage LHFS and the availability of lower cost funding sources. Our portfolio includes short-term fixed rate advances and long-term fixed rate advances.

    We are currently authorized through a resolution of our Board of Directors to apply for advances from the FHLB using approved loan types as collateral, which includes residential first mortgage loans, HELOC, and CRE loans. As of March 31,September 30, 2021, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a line of credit with the FHLB of up to $10 billion, which is further limited based on our total assets and qualified collateral, as determined by the FHLB. At March 31,September 30, 2021, we had $3.6$2.5 billion of advances outstanding and an additional $3.3$4.4 billion of collateralized borrowing capacity available at the FHLB.

Federal Reserve Discount Window
    
    We have arrangements with the FRB of Chicago to borrow from its discount window. The discount window is a borrowing facility that we may utilize for short-term liquidity needs arising from special or unusual circumstances. The amount we are allowed to borrow is based on the lendable value of the collateral that we provide. To collateralize the line, we pledge investment securities and loans that are eligible based on FRB of Chicago guidelines.

    At March 31,September 30, 2021, we pledged collateral, which included commercial loans, municipal bonds, and agency bonds, to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $2.0$2.4 billion with a lendable value of $1.4$1.7 billion. At December 31, 2020, we pledged collateral to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $1.9 billion with a lendable value of $1.4 billion. We do not typically utilize this available funding source, and at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no borrowings outstanding against this line of credit.
Other Unsecured Borrowings

We have access to overnight federal funds purchased lines with other Federal Reserve member institutions. We utilize this source of funding for short-term liquidity needs, depending on the availability and cost of our other funding sources. At March 31,September 30, 2021 we had $330$775 million of borrowings outstanding under this source of funding. Additional borrowing capacity under this and other sources of funding can vary depending on market conditions.

Debt

    As part of our overall capital strategy, we previously raised capital through the issuance of junior subordinated notes to our special purpose trusts formed for the offerings, which issued Tier 1 qualifying preferred stock ("trust preferred securities"). The trust preferred securities are callable by us at any time. Interest is payable on a quarterly basis; however, we may defer interest payments for up to 20 quarters without default or penalty. At March 31,September 30, 2021, we are current on all interest payments. Additionally, we have $150 million of subordinated debt outstanding (the "Notes"), which matures on November 1, 2030. On December 23, 2020, we provided notice of redemption on $246 million of senior debt outstanding at December 31, 2020 (“Senior Notes”), which settled on January 22, 2021.

Operational Risk

    Operational risk is the risk to current or projected financial condition and resilience arising from inadequate or failed internal processes or systems, human errors or misconduct, or adverse external events which may include vendor failures, fraudulent activities, disasters, and security risks. We continuously strive to adapt our system of internal controls to ensure compliance with laws, rules, and regulations, and to improve the oversight of our operational risk.

We evaluate internal systems, processes and controls to identify potential vulnerabilities and mitigate potential loss from cyber-attacks. The goal of this framework is to implement effective operational risk techniques and strategies, minimize operational and fraud losses, and enhance our overall performance.

Loans with Government Guarantees

    Substantially all of our LGG continue to be insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs ("VA"). In the event of a government guaranteed loan borrower default, the Bank has a unilateral option to repurchase loans sold to GNMA that areif the loan is due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to as 90 days past duedue) and can recover losses through a claims process from the insurer.guarantor. Nonperforming repurchased loans in this portfolio earn interest at a rate based upon the 10-year U.S. Treasury note rate from the time the underlying loan becomes 60 days delinquent until the loan is conveyed to HUD (if foreclosure timelines are met), which is not paid by the FHA until claimed. Additionally, if the Bank cures the loan, it can be resold to GNMA. If not, the Bank can begin the process of collecting the government guarantee by filing a claim in accordance with established guidelines. guidelines. Certain loans within our portfolio may be subject to indemnifications and insurance limits which expose us to limited credit risk.

    During the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021, we had less than $1.8$2.6 million in net charge-offs related to LGG and have reserved for the remaining risks within other assets and as a component of our ALLL on residential first mortgages. These additional expenses or charges arise due to insurance limits on VA insured loans and FHA property foreclosure and preservation requirements that may result in a loss in excess of all, or part of, the guarantee.

    Our LGG portfolio totaled $1.9 billion at September 30, 2021, as compared to $2.5 billion at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. GNMA has granted borrowers with an option to seek forbearancesforbearance on their mortgage repayments. $2.3 billion$144 million of GNMA loans arewere in forbearance as of March 31,September 30, 2021. When a GNMA loan is due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to as 90 days past due) the loan is required to be re-recognized on the balance sheet by the MSR owner. These loans are recorded in LGG, and thea liability to repurchase the loans is recorded in loans with government guarantees repurchase options on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. This resulted in $1.8$0.2 billion of repurchase options as of March 31,September 30, 2021, a $0.1$1.7 billion decrease from December 31, 2020. We2020 as we have elected not to exerciserepurchased a majority of these repurchase options asloans at the end of March 31, 2021 because loans are not able to be modified and re-sold during thetheir forbearance period.

In this instance we would utilize the guarantee on these loans.loans and incur certain administrative expenses.

    For further information, see Note 5 - Loans with Government Guarantees and the Credit Risk - Payment Deferrals section of the MD&A.

Representation and Warranty Reserve

    When we sell mortgage loans, we make customary representations and warranties to the purchasers, including sponsored securitization trusts and their insurers (primarily Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac). An estimate of the fair value of the guarantee associated with the mortgage loans is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, which was $7 million at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Capital
    
    Management actively reviews and manages our capital position and strategy. We conduct quarterly capital stress tests and capital adequacy assessments which utilize internally defined scenarios. These analyses are designed to help Management and the Board better understand the integrated sensitivity of various risk exposures through quantifying the potential financial and capital impacts of hypothetical stressful events and scenarios. We make adjustments to our balance sheet composition taking into consideration potential business risks, regulatory requirements and the flexibility to support future growth. We prudently manage our capital position and work with our regulators to ensure that our capital levels are appropriate considering our risk profile.

    The capital standards we are subject to include requirements contemplated by the Dodd-Frank Act as well as guidelines reached by Basel III. These risk-based capital adequacy guidelines are intended to measure capital adequacy with regard to a banking organization’s balance sheet, including off-balance sheet exposures such as unused portions of loan commitments, letters of credit, and recourse arrangements. Our capital ratios are maintained at levels in excess of those considered to be "well-capitalized" by regulators. Our Tier 1 leverage was 8.119.72 percent at March 31,September 30, 2021 providing a 311472 basis point stress buffer above the minimum level needed to be considered “well-capitalized.” Additionally, total risk-based capital to RWA was 13.1814.55 percent at March 31,September 30, 2021 providing a 318455 basis point buffer above the minimum level needed to be considered "well-capitalized". This represents a 42 basis point improvement over the prior quarter primarily driven by our strong quarterly earnings.

    Dodd-Frank Act Section 171, commonly known as the Collins Amendment, established minimum Tier 1 leverage and risk-based capital requirements for insured depository institutions, depository institution holding companies, and non-bank
37


financial companies that are supervised under the Federal Reserve. Under the amendment, certain hybrid securities, such as trust preferred securities, may be included in Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies that had total assets below $15 billion as of December 31, 2009. As we were below $15 billion in assets as of December 31, 2009, the trust preferred securities classified as long-term debt on our balance sheet will be included as Tier 1 capital, unless we complete an acquisition of a depository institution holding company or a depository institution and we report total assets greater than $15 billion in the quarter in which the acquisition occurs. Should that event occur, our trust preferred securities would be included in Tier 2 capital.

Regulatory Capital

    The Bank and Flagstar are subject to the Basel III-based U.S. rules, including capital simplification in 2020.

    On March 27, 2020, in response to COVID-19, U.S. banking regulators issued an interim final rule that allows banking organizations the option to delay the initial adoption impact of CECL on regulatory capital for two years followed by a three-year transition period. During the two-year delay we will add back to CET1 capital 100 percent of the initial adoption impact of CECL plus 25 percent of the cumulative quarterly changes in the ACL (i.e., quarterly transitional amounts). After two years, starting on January 1, 2022, the quarterly transitional amounts along with the initial adoption impact of CECL will be phased out of CET1 capital over the three-year period.

    For the period presented, the following table sets forth our capital ratios as well as our excess capital over well-capitalized minimums.

    As presented in the table above, our constraining capital ratio is our total capital to risk weighted assets at 13.1814.55 percent. It would take a $674$940 million after-tax loss, with the balance sheet remaining constant, for our total risk-based capital ratio to fall below the level considered to be "well-capitalized".

     As of March 31,September 30, 2021, we had $428$340 million in MSRs, $86$78 million in DTAs arising from temporary differences and no material investments in unconsolidated financial institutions or minority interest which drive differences between our current capital ratios. For additional information on our capital requirements, see Note 14 - Regulatory Matters.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this report includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in helping to understand the underlying performance and trends of the Company.

    Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, which are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious with respect to the use of such measures. To mitigate these limitations, we have practices in place to ensure that these measures are calculated using the appropriate GAAP or regulatory components in their entirety and to ensure that our performance is properly reflected to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons. Our method of calculating these non-GAAP measures may differ from methods used by other companies. Although we believe the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this report enhance investors' understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for those financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the most directly comparable GAAP or regulatory financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP or regulatory financial measure, can be found in this report.

Critical Accounting Estimates

    Various elements of our accounting policies, by their nature, are subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions and other subjective assessments. Certain accounting policies that, due to the judgment, estimates and assumptions are critical to an understanding of our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes, are described in Item 1. These policies relate to: (a) the determination of our ACL and (b) fair value measurements. We believe the judgment, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes are appropriate given the factual circumstances at the time. However, given the sensitivity of our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to these critical accounting policies, the use of other judgments, estimates and assumptions could result in material differences in our results of operations and/or financial condition.

    For further information on our critical accounting policies, please refer to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which is available on our website, flagstar.com, under the Investor Relations section, or on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission, at sec.gov.

Forward – Looking Statements

    Certain statements in this Form 10-Q, including but not limited to statements included within the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition, Results of Operations, and certain statements with respect to the pending merger of Flagstar and New York Community Bancorp, Inc. ("NYCB") including without limitation the expected timing of consummation of the merger, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. In addition, we may make forward-looking statements in our other documents filed with or furnished to the Security and Exchange Commission, and our Management may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, representatives of the media, and others.

    Generally, forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead represent Management’s current beliefs and expectations regarding future events and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting us, our customers, counterparties, employees, and third-party service providers, and the ultimate extent of the impacts on our business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and prospects is uncertain. Other than as required under United States securities laws, Flagstar does not undertake to update the forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise after the date of the forward-looking statements. Such statements may be identified by words such as believe, expect, anticipate, intend, plan, estimate, may increase, may fluctuate, and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as will, should, would, and could. Our actual results and capital and other financial conditions may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements depending upon a variety of factors, including without limitation: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the
right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive merger agreement among Flagstar, NYCB, and 615 Corp.; the
outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Flagstar or NYCB; the possibility that the proposed transaction
will not close when expected or at all because required regulatory shareholder or other approvals are not received or other
conditions to the closing are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all, or are obtained subject to conditions that are not
anticipated; the ability of Flagstar and NYCB to meet expectations regarding the timing, completion and accounting and tax
treatments of the proposed transaction; the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse
effects on the market price of the common stock of Flagstar and/or NYCB; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the
proposed transaction will not be realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising
from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas
where Flagstar and NYCB do business; certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact
the parties’ ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; the possibility that the proposed transaction
may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; diversion of
management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; the possibility that the parties may be unable to
achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in the proposed transaction within the expected timeframes or at all and
to successfully integrate Flagstar’s operations and those of NYCB; such integration may be more difficult, time consuming or
costly than expected; revenues following the proposed transaction may be lower than expected; potential adverse reactions or
changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed
transaction; Flagstar’s and NYBC'sNYCB's success in executing their respective business plans and strategies and managing the risks
involved in the foregoing; and the precautionary statements included within the discussion and analysis of our results of operations and the risk factors listed and described in Item 1A to Part I, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are incorporated by reference herein, and Item 1A. to Part II, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,September 30, 2021.

    The accompanying financial statements of Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. ("Flagstar," or the "Company"), including its wholly owned principal subsidiary, Flagstar Bank, FSB (the "Bank"), have been prepared using GAAP for interim financial statements. Where we say "we," "us," "our," the "Company," "Bancorp" or "Flagstar," we usually mean Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. However, in some cases, a reference to "we," "us," "our," the "Company" or "Flagstar" will include the Bank.

    These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for a full year presentation and certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with rules and regulations of the SEC. These interim financial statements are unaudited and include, in our opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods indicated, which are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which is available on our website, flagstar.com, and on the SEC website at sec.gov.

(1)There were 0no securities of a single issuer, which are not governmental or government-sponsored, that exceeded 10 percent of stockholders’ equity at March 31,September 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

We evaluate AFS debt securities where the value has declined below amortized cost for impairment. If we intend to sell or believe it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the debt security, it is written down to fair value through earnings. For AFS debt securities we intend to hold, we evaluate the debt securities for expected credit losses, except for debt securities that are guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agencies or sovereign entities of high credit quality for

which we apply a zero loss assumption, comprised 9385 percent of our AFS portfolio as of March 31,September 30, 2021. For the remaining AFS securities, credit losses are recognized as an increase to the ACL through the credit loss provision. If any of the decline in fair value is related to market factors, that amount is recognized in OCI. We had 0no unrealized credit losses for the three months ended March 31,as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

    We separately evaluate our HTM debt securities for any credit losses. As of March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our entire HTM portfolio qualified for the zero loss assumption as all securities are guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or U.S. government agencies.

    Investment securities transactions are recorded on the trade date for purchases and sales. Interest earned on investment securities, including the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts, are determined using the effective interest method over the period of maturity and recorded in interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Accrued interest receivable on investment securities totaled $5 million at both March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and was reported in other assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Available-for-sale securities

    Securities AFS are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities are reported as a component of other comprehensive income.
    
    We purchased $86$0 million and $350$283 million of AFS securities, which were comprised of U.S. government sponsored agency MBS, certificates of deposit,CD, and corporate debt obligations during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, and March 31, 2020, respectively.September 30, 2021. In addition, we retained $137 million and $195 million of passive interests in our own private MBS during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. We retained $0 million and $18 million of passive interests in our own private MBS during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2020. We did not retain any passive interests in our own private MBS during the three months ended March 31, 2021.September 30, 2020, respectively.

    There were 0no sales of AFS securities during both the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2020 other than those related to mortgage loans that had been securitized for sale in the normal course of business.

Held-to-maturity securities

    Investment securities HTM are carried at amortized cost and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts using the interest method. Unrealized losses are not recorded to the extent they are temporary in nature.

    There were 0no purchases or sales of HTM securities during both the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and March 31,September 30, 2020.

Unrealized losses on AFS securities have not been recognized into income because almost all of the portfolio held by us are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies, and have a long history of no credit losses. The remaining unrealized losses on AFS securities are municipal securities and corporate debt obligations,private securitizations, all of which are considered investment grade or are de minimis. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity.

    We pledge investment securities, primarily agency collateralized and municipal taxable mortgage obligations, to collateralize lines of credit and/or borrowings. At March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had pledged investment securities of $224$268 million and $202 million, respectively.

Note 3 - Loans Held-for-Sale

    The majority of our mortgage loans closed as LHFS are ultimately sold into the secondary market on a whole loan basis or by securitizing the loans into agency, government, or private label MBS. LHFS totaled $7.1$6.4 billion and $7.1 billion at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 we had net gains on loan sales associated with LHFS of $227$169 million and $564 million as compared to $89$344 million and $737 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2020.September 30, 2020, respectively.
    
    At March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $111$364 million and $31 million, respectively, of LHFS were recorded at lower of cost or fair value.value, primarily comprised of LGG loans waiting to be resold. We elected the fair value option for the remainder of the loans in the portfolio.

49


Note 4 - Loans Held-for-Investment

    We classify loans that we have the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity as LHFI. We report LHFI at their amortized cost, which includes the outstanding principal balance adjusted for any unamortized premiums, discounts, deferred fees and costs. The accrued interest receivable on LHFI totaled $41$38 million at March 31,September 30, 2021 and $43 million at December 31, 2020 and was reported in other assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

    We have pledged certain LHFI, LHFS, and LGG to collateralize lines of credit and/or borrowings with the FRB of Chicago and the FHLB of Indianapolis. At March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had pledged loans of $11.3$4.3 billion and $11.6 billion, respectively.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
    We determine the estimate of the ACL on at least a quarterly basis. The ACL represents Management's estimate of expected lifetime losses in our LHFI portfolio, excluding loans carried under the fair value option. In addition, we record a reserve for expected lifetime losses on our unfunded commitments - see Reserve for Unfunded Commitments section below. Therefore, we record ALLL on relevant financial assets and a reserve for unfunded commitments on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, collectively referred to as the ACL.

Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual terms excludesexclude expected extensions, renewals, and modifications unless the following applies: Management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a TDR will be executed with an individual borrower or the extension or renewal options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and are not unconditionally cancellable by us.
50



The ACL is impacted by changes in asset quality of the portfolio, including but not limited to increases in risk rating changes in our commercial portfolio, borrower delinquencies, changes in FICO scores or changes in LTVs in our consumer portfolio. In addition, while we have incorporated our forecasted impact of COVID-19 into our ACL, the ultimate impact of COVID-19 is still uncertain, including how long economic activity will be impacted by the pandemic and what effect the unprecedented levels of government fiscal and monetary actions will have on the economy and our credit losses.

Specifically identified component. The specifically identified component of ACL related to performing TDR loans is generally measured as the difference between the recorded investment in the specific loan and the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected, discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. Estimating the timing and amounts of future cash flow projections is highly judgmental and based upon assumptions including default rates, prepayment probability and loss severities. All of these estimates and assumptions require significant management judgment and certain assumptions are highly subjective.

Specifically identified collateral dependent NPL loans are generally measured as the difference between the recorded investment in the impaired loan and the underlying collateral value less estimated costs to sell. These estimates are dependent on third-party property valuations which may be influenced by factors such as the current and future level of home prices, the duration of current overall economic conditions, and other macroeconomic and portfolio-specific factors.

Model-based component. A general allowance is established for lifetime losses inherent on non-impaired loans by segmenting the portfolio based upon common risk characteristics. Our consumer loan portfolio is segmented into Residential First Mortgage, Home Equity and Other Consumer. Loan characteristics impacting these segments include lien position, credit quality, and loan structure. At a high-level, our commercial loans are segmented into Commercial Real Estate, Commercial and Industrial, and Warehouse Lending. Loan characteristics impacting these segments include credit quality and loan structure.
52


We measure the allowance using the applicable dual risk rating model which measures probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default. As of March 31,September 30, 2021, we utilized the Moody’s MarchSeptember scenarios in our forecast: a growth forecast, weighted at 30 percent; a baseline forecast, weighted at 40 percent; and an adverse forecast, weighted at 30 percent. The resulting composite forecast for the firstthird quarter of 2021 was slightly better thanimproved as compared to the scenario used in the fourthsecond quarter 2020.2021. Unemployment ends 2021 at 65 percent and will continue to recover in 2022. GDP recovers throughoutcontinues to recover in the last quarter of 2021 from current levels and does not returnreturns to pre-COVID level until 2025.levels in 2023. HPI stays flat throughout 2021decreases slightly through 2022, at a lower rate as compared to the scenario used in the second quarter of 2021.

Qualitative adjustments. The specifically identified component analysis and the output of the model provide a reasonable starting point for our analysis, but do not, by themselves, form a sufficient basis to determine the appropriate level for the ACL. We therefore consider the qualitative factors that are likely to cause the ACL associated with our existing portfolio to differ from the output of the model. The most significant qualitative factors considered include changes in economic and business conditions, changes in nature and volume of portfolio and changes in the volume and severity of past due loans. The application of different inputs into the model calculation and the assumptions used by Management to adjust the model calculation are subject to significant management judgment and may result in actual credit losses that differ from the originally estimated amounts.

    The ALLL was $241$171 million at March 31,September 30, 2021 and $132$252 million at MarchDecember 31, 2020. The increasedecrease in the allowance is primarily reflective of changesimprovements in our economic forecasts and our evaluation of the performance and stable credit quality of the LHFI portfolio as borrowers continue to recover from the economic forecasts used in the ACL models as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and credit downgrades largely attributed to challenging economic conditions being facedstress caused by certain of our borrowers due to the pandemic.
Loans are considered to be past due when any payment of principal or interest is 30 days past the scheduled payment date. While it is the goal of Management to collect on loans, we attempt to work out a satisfactory repayment schedule or modification with past due borrowers and will undertake foreclosure proceedings if the delinquency is not satisfactorily resolved. Our practices regarding past due loans are designed to both assist borrowers in meeting their contractual obligations and minimize losses incurred by the Bank.

    Beginning in March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, customers facing COVID-19 related difficulties were offered forbearance in an effort to help our borrowers get to the other side of the health crisis when we believe they will be able to fulfill allcrisis. As these loans reach the end of their contractual commitments.forbearance period, we have been working with each customer to modify or refinance the outstanding loan to fit their new circumstances. Refer to payment deferral information in the Credit Risk Section of the MD&A for additional details.
    We cease the accrual of interest on all classes of consumer and commercial loans upon the earlier of, becoming 90 days past due, or when doubt exists as to the ultimate collection of principal or interest (classified as nonaccrual or NPLs). When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued interest income is reversed and the loan may only return to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are anticipated to be fully collectible. We do not measure an ACL forconsider accrued interest receivablesreceivable in our measurement of the ACL as accrued interest is written offwritten-off in a timely manner.manner when the loan is placed on nonaccrual. We are not aging receivables for customers who have been granted a payment deferral in response to COVID-19 which remain in the aging category they were in at the time of payment deferral. We continue to accrue interest on these loans, consistent with our forbearance programs.

Reserve for Unfunded Commitments
We estimated expected credit losses over the contractual period in which we are exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by us. The reserve for unfunded commitments is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life.

The reserve for unfunded commitments is reflected in other liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and was $24$19 million as of March 31,September 30, 2021, compared to $20$28 million as of MarchDecember 31, 2020. The increasedecrease in the reserve is due to changesimprovements in the economic forecasts used in the ACL models as a result of the ongoingcontinued vaccine rollout and the lifting of most COVID-19 pandemic.restrictions.
The following categories of off-balance sheet credit exposures have been identified: unfunded loans with available balances, new commitments to lend that are not yet funded, and standby and commercial letters of credit. For further information, see Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
    
    We may modify certain loans in both our consumer and commercial loan portfolios to retain customers or to maximize collection of the outstanding loan balance. TDRs are modified loans in which a borrower demonstrates financial difficulties and for which a concession has been granted as a result. Nonperforming TDRs are included in nonaccrual loans. TDRs remain in nonperforming status until a borrower has made payments and is current for at least six consecutive months. Performing TDRs are not considered to be nonaccrual so long as we believe that all contractual principal and interest due under the restructured terms will be collected. Performing and nonperforming TDRs remain impaired as interest and principal will not be received in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. Refer to Note 1- Description of Business, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Standards to the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a description of the methodology used to determine TDRs.

    Some loan modifications classified as TDRs may not ultimately result in the full collection of principal and interest, as modified, but may give rise to potential incremental losses. We measure impairments using a discounted cash flow method for performing TDRs and measure impairment based on collateral values for nonperforming TDRs.

    Beginning in March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, we offered our consumer and commercial customersborrowers principal and interest payment deferrals, and extensions.forbearance and/or extensions up to a maximum period of 18 months. We considered these programs in the context of whether or not the short-term modifications of these loans would constitute a TDR. We considered the CARES Act, interagency guidance and related guidance from the FASB, which provided that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not required to be accounted for as TDRs. As a result, we have determined that loan forbearance, modifications, deferrals and extensions made under these COVID-19 programs are not TDRs.

    There were 0no loans modified in the previous 12 months that subsequently defaulted during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021. All TDR classes within the consumer and commercial loan portfolios are considered subsequently defaulted when they are greater than 90 days past due within 12 months of the restructuring date.

Credit Quality

    We utilize a combination of internal and external risk rating systems which are applied to all consumer and commercial loans which are used as loan-level inputs to our ACL models. Descriptions of our risk ratings as they relate to credit quality follow the ratings used by the U.S. bank regulatory agencies as listed below.

Pass. Pass assets are not impaired nor do they have any known deficiencies that could impact the quality of the asset.
Watch. Watch assets are defined as pass-rated assets that exhibit elevated risk characteristics or other factors that deserve Management’s close attention and increased monitoring. However, the asset does not exhibit a potential or well-defined weakness that would warrant a downgrade to criticized or adverse classification.
Special mention. Assets identified as special mention possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving Management's close attention. Special mention assets have a potential weakness or pose an unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the assets and increase risk in the future. Special mention assets are criticized, but do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
    Substandard. Assets identified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the full collection or liquidation of the debt. Substandard assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. For HELOANs and other consumer loans, we evaluate credit quality based on the aging and status of payment activity and any other known credit characteristics that call into question full repayment of the asset. Substandard loans may be placed on either accrual or nonaccrual status.
    Doubtful. An asset classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. A doubtful asset has a high probability of total or substantial loss, but because of specific pending events that may strengthen the asset, its classification as loss is deferred. Doubtful borrowers are usually in default, lack adequate liquidity or capital, and lack the resources necessary to remain an operating entity. Pending events can include mergers, acquisitions, liquidations, capital injections, the perfection of liens on additional collateral, the valuation of collateral and refinancing. Generally, pending events should be resolved within a relatively short period and the ratings will be adjusted based on the new information. Due to the high probability of loss, doubtful assets are placed on nonaccrual.
    Loss. An asset classified as loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that the continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. This classification does not mean that an asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.
55


Consumer Loans

    Consumer loans consist of open and closed-end loans extended to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures. Consumer loans includes other consumer product loans and loans to individuals secured by their personal residence, including first mortgage, home equity, and home improvement loans. Because consumer loans are usually relatively small-balance, homogeneous exposures, consumer loans are rated based primarily on payment performance. Payment performance is a proxy for the strength of repayment capacity and loans are generally classified based on their payment status rather than by an individual review of each loan.
    In accordance with regulatory guidance, we assign risk ratings to consumer loans in the following manner:
Consumer loans are classified as Watch once the loan becomes 60 days past due.
Open and closed-end consumer loans 90 days or more past due are classified as Substandard.

Commercial Loans

Risk rating and the average loan duration have the most significant impact on the ACL for commercial loans. Additional factors which impact the ACL are debt-service-coverage ratio, loan-to-value ratio, interest-coverage ratio and leverage ratio.

Internal audit conducts periodic examinations which serve as an independent verification of the accuracy of the ratings assigned. All loans are examined on at least an annual basis. Loan grades are based on different factors within the borrowing relationship: entity sales, debt service coverage, debt/total net worth, liquidity, balance sheet and income statement trends, Management experience, business stability, financing structure, and financial reporting requirements. The underlying collateral is also rated based on the specific type of collateral and corresponding LTV. The combination of the borrower and collateral risk ratings results in the final risk rating for the borrowing relationship.

Note 5 - Loans with Government Guarantees
    
    Substantially all LGG are insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. FHANonperforming repurchased loans in this portfolio earn interest at a rate based upon the 10-year U.S. Treasury note rate atfrom the time the underlying loan becomes 60 days delinquent until the loan is conveyed to HUD (if foreclosure timelines are met), which is not paid by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs until claimed. WhenThe Bank has a unilateral option to repurchase loans sold to GNMA if the loan is due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to as 90 days past due) and can recover losses through a claims process from the loan is required to be re-recognized on the balance sheet by the MSR owner.guarantor. These loans are recorded in LGG and the liability to repurchase the loans is recorded as loans with government guarantees repurchase options on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. This resulted in $1.8$0.2 billion of repurchase options as of March 31,September 30, 2021, a $0.1$1.7 billion decrease fromcompared to a balance of $1.9 billion as of December 31, 2020. Certain loans within our portfolio may be subject to indemnifications and insurance limits which expose us to limited credit risk. We have reserved for these risks within other assets and as a component of our ACL on residential first mortgages.

At March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, LGG totaled $1.9 billion and $2.5 billion.billion, respectively.

    Repossessed assets and the associated claims related to government guaranteed loans are recorded in other assets and totaled $14$7 million and $17 million, at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Note 6 - Variable Interest Entities

    We have 0no consolidated VIEs as of March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

In connection with our non-QM securitization activities, we have retained a 5 percent interest in the investment securities of certain trusts ("other MBS") and are contracted as the subservicerservicer of the underlying loans, compensated based on market rates, which constitutes a continuing involvement in these trusts. Although we have a variable interest in these securitization trusts, we are not their primary beneficiary due to the relative size of our investment in comparison to the total amount of securities issued by the VIE and our inability to direct activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a result, we have not consolidated the assets and liabilities of the VIE in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Bank’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to our investment in the VIE, as well as the standard representations and warranties made in conjunction with the loan transfer. See Note 2 - Investment Securities and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements, for additional information.

Note 7 - Mortgage Servicing Rights

    We have investments in MSRs that result from the sale of loans to the secondary market for which we retain the servicing. We account for MSRs at their fair value. A primary risk associated with MSRs is the potential reduction in fair value as a result of higher than anticipated prepayments due to loan refinancing prompted, in part, by declining interest rates or government intervention. Conversely, these assets generally increase in value in a rising interest rate environment to the extent that prepayments are slower than anticipated. We utilize derivatives as economic hedges to offset changes in the fair value of the MSRs resulting from the actual or anticipated changes in prepayments stemming from changing interest rate environments. There is also a risk of valuation decline due to higher than expected default rates, which we do not believe can be effectively managed using derivatives. For further information regarding the derivative instruments utilized to manage our MSR risks, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments.

    The sensitivity calculations above are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future performance. Changes in fair value based on adverse changes in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. To isolate the effect of the specified change, the fair value shock analysis is consistent with the identified adverse change, while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, a change in one assumption generally impacts other assumptions, which may either magnify or counteract the effect of the change. For further information on the fair value of MSRs, see Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

    Contractual servicing and subservicing fees. Contractual servicing and subservicing fees, including late fees and other ancillary income are presented below. Contractual servicing fees are included within net return on mortgage servicing rights on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Contractual subservicing fees, including late fees and other ancillary income, are included within loan administration income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Subservicing fee income is recorded for fees earned on subserviced loans, net of third party subservicing costs.

Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments

    Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value in other assets and other liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Our policy is to present our derivative assets and derivative liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition on a gross basis, even when provisions allowing for set-off are in place. However, for derivative contracts cleared through certain central clearing parties, variation margin payments are recognized as settlements. We are exposed to non-performance risk by the counterparties to our various derivative financial instruments. A majority of our derivatives are centrally cleared through a Central Counterparty Clearing House or consist of residential mortgage interest rate lock commitments further limiting our exposure to non-performance risk. We believe that the non-performance risk inherent in our remaining derivative contracts is minimal based on credit standards and the collateral provisions of the derivative agreements.

    Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: We maintain a derivative portfolio of interest rate swaps, futures and forward commitments used to manage exposure to changes in interest rates, MSR asset values and to meet the needs of customers. We also enter into interest rate lock commitments, which are commitments to originate mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the customers have locked into that interest rate. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage LHFS is managed using corresponding forward sale commitments. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
    
    Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: We have designated certain interest rate swaps as fair value hedges of investment securities AFS and residential first mortgage LHFI using the last-of-layer method. Cash flows and the profit impact associated with designated hedges are reported in the same category as the underlying hedged item.

    We have also designated certain interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges on LIBOR based variable interest payments on certain custodial deposits. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and reclassified into interest expense in the same period in which the hedge transaction is recognized in earnings. We had $17$11 million (net-of-tax) of unrealized gains and $5 million (net-of-tax) of unrealized losses on derivatives classified as cash flow hedges recorded in AOCI as of March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The estimated amount to be reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings during the next 12 months represents $3 million of losses (net-of-tax).

60


Derivatives that are designated in hedging relationships are assessed for effectiveness using regression analysis at inception and qualitatively thereafter, unless regression analysis is deemed necessary. All designated hedge relationships were and are expected to be highly effective as of March 31,September 30, 2021.

Note 11 - Earnings Per Share

    Basic earnings per share, excluding dilution, is computed by dividing earnings applicable to common stockholdersshareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that could then share in our earnings.

2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

There were 62,462106,707 shares issued under the ESPP during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and the associated compensation expense was de minimis.

Note 13 - Income Taxes

    The provision for income taxes in interim periods requires us to make a best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year, adjusted for any discrete items for the applicable period. This estimated effective tax rate is then applied to interim consolidated pre-tax operating income to determine the interim provision for income taxes.

    The following table presents our provision for income tax and effective tax provision rate:

Note 14 - Regulatory Matters

Regulatory Capital

    We, along with the Bank, are subject to the Basel III based U.S. capital rules, including capital simplification. Under these requirements, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

    To be categorized as "well-capitalized," the Company and the Bank must maintain minimum tangible capital, Tier 1 capital, common equity Tier 1, and total capital ratios as set forth in the table below. We, along with the Bank, are considered "well-capitalized" at both March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments

Legal Proceedings

    We and our subsidiaries are subject to various pending or threatened legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business operations. In addition, the Bank is routinely named in civil actions throughout the country by borrowers and former borrowers relating to the closing, purchase, sale, and servicing of mortgage loans. From time to time, governmental agencies also conduct investigations or examinations of various practices of the Bank. In the course of such investigations or examinations, the Bank cooperates with such agencies and provides information as requested.

We assess the liabilities and loss contingencies in connection with pending or threatened legal and regulatory proceedings on at least a quarterly basis and establish accruals when we believe it is probable that a loss may be incurred and that the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, litigation accruals are adjusted, as appropriate, in light of additional information. Payments made to settle our liabilities may differ from the contingency or fair value recorded due to factors that differ from our assumptions.

At March 31,September 30, 2021, we do not believe that the amount of any reasonably possible losses in excess of any amounts accrued with respect to ongoing proceedings or any other known claims will be material to our financial statements, or that the ultimate outcome of these actions will have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

DOJ Liability

    On February 24, 2012, the Bank entered into a Settlement Agreement with the DOJ under which we agreed to make future payments totaling $118 million in annual increments of up to $25 million upon meeting certain conditions. On March 30, 2021, the Bank signed a $70 million final Settlement and Dismissal Amendment (the "Amendment") with the DOJ. The Amendment required us to make a $70 million one-time restitution cash payment and removed any further obligations related to the original Settlement Agreement. We recorded a $35 million expense to adjust the fair value of the DOJ Liability through other noninterest expense in the first quarter of 2021. The fair value of the DOJ Liability was $70 million as of March 31, 2021, consistent with the Amendment. The final payment was made on April 8, 2021.2021, fully satisfying the Amendment and reducing the liability to $0. See Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Other litigation accruals

    At March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, excluding the fair value liability relating to the DOJ Liability, our total accrual for contingent liabilities and settled litigation was $8 million and $7 million, respectively.

Commitments

    In the normal course of business, we have various commitments outstanding which are not included on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The following table is a summary of the contractual amount of significant commitments:

    Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is not a violation of any condition established in the contract. Because many of these commitments expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flow requirements. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or
69


other termination clauses. We evaluate each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by us, upon extension of credit is based on Management's credit evaluation of the counterparties.

    These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk beyond the amount recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Our exposure to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We utilize the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for balance sheet instruments. The types of credit we extend are as follows:

    Mortgage loan commitments including interest-rate locks. We enter into mortgage loan commitments, including interest-rate locks with our customers. These interest-rate lock commitments are considered to be derivative instruments and the fair value of these commitments is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in other assets. For further information, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments.

    Warehouse loan commitments. Lines of credit provided to mortgage originators to fund loans they originate and then sell. The proceeds of the sale of the loans are used to repay the draw on the line used to fund the loans.

    Commercial and industrial and other construction commitments. Conditional commitments issued under various terms to lend funds to businesses and other entities. These commitments include revolving credit agreements, term loan commitments and short-term borrowing agreements. Many of these loan commitments have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because many of these commitments are expected to expire without being funded, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future liquidity requirements.

74


    HELOC commitments. Commitments to extend, originate or purchase credit are primarily lines of credit to consumers and have specified rates and maturity dates. Many of these commitments also have adverse change clauses, which allow us to cancel the commitment due to deterioration in the borrowers’ creditworthiness or a decline in the collateral value.

    Other consumer commitments. Conditional commitments issued to accommodate the financial needs of customers. The commitments are made under various terms to lend funds to consumers, which include revolving credit agreements, term loan commitments and short-term borrowing agreements.

    Standby and commercial letters of credit. Conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. 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, while 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. These financial standby letters of credit irrevocably obligate the bank to pay a third party beneficiary when a customer fails to repay an outstanding loan or debt instrument.

    We maintain a reserve for the estimated lifetime credit losses in unfunded commitments to extend credit. Unfunded commitments to extend credit include unfunded loans with available balances, new commitments to lend that are not yet funded, and standby and commercial letters of credit. A reserve balance of $24$19 million at March 31,September 30, 2021 and $28 million at December 31, 2020, respectively, is reflected in other liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. See Note 4 - Loans Held-for-Investment for additional information.

    Supplemental executive retirement plan with former CEO. The Company entered into a supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) with a former CEO in 2009. Under the plan, the former CEO was to receive a $16 million payment in August 2018. The Company fully accrued for the SERP liability during that time period and no SERP payments have been made to the former CEO. Due toIn the conditionsecond quarter of the Company at the time2021, we entered into a settlement agreement with the former CEO’s employment ended, we believeCEO that any payment underterminates the SERP would be deemed to beand all other prior employment agreements in exchange for a “Golden Parachute”maximum payment and, therefore, isof $6 million which remains subject to certain banking regulations. As a result, we would need to make an application to the regulators to make a payment and certify to certain criteria. The Company does not believe that it can make such a certification. The former CEO has filed a lawsuit to compel us to make that certification and ultimately pay the liability. Final dispensationregulatory approval as of the "SERP" is not within our control and the liability of $16 million at March 31, 2021 may be adjusted as more information is known.September 30, 2021.

Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements

We utilize fair value measurements to record or disclose the fair value on certain assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability through an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The determination of fair values of financial instruments often requires the use of estimates. In cases where quoted market values in an active market are not available, we use present value techniques and other valuation methods to estimate the fair values of our financial instruments. These valuation models rely on market-based parameters when available, such as interest rate yield curves or credit spreads. Unobservable inputs may be based on Management's judgment, assumptions and estimates related to credit quality, our future earnings, interest rates and other relevant inputs. These valuation methods require considerable judgment and the resulting estimates of fair value can be significantly affected by the assumptions made and methods used.

Valuation Hierarchy

U.S. GAAP establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The hierarchy is based on the transparency of the inputs used in the valuation process with the highest priority given to quoted prices available in active markets and the lowest priority given to unobservable inputs where no active market exists, as discussed below.

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets in which we can participate as of the measurement date;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input within the valuation hierarchy that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized at the end of the reporting period.

Recurring Significant Unobservable Inputs

    Home equity. The most significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the HELOANs are discount rates, constant prepayment rates, and default rates. The constant prepayment and default rates are based on a 12 month historical average. Significant increases (decreases) in the discount rate in isolation result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Increases (decreases) in prepay rates in isolation result in a higher (lower) fair value and increases (decreases) in default rates in isolation result in a lower (higher) fair value.

    MSRs. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the MSRs are option adjusted spreads, prepayment rates, and cost to service. Significant increases (decreases) in all three assumptions in isolation result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Weighted average life (in years) is used to determine the change in fair value of MSRs. For March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the weighted average life (in years) for the entire MSR portfolio was 6.05.8 and 4.2, respectively.

    DOJ Liability. The DOJ liability was settled for $70 million in the second quarter of 2021, fully satisfying the Amendment and reducing the liability to $0 at September 30, 2021. Prior to settlement, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the DOJ Liability arewere the
discount rate, asset growth rate, return on assets, dividend rate and potential ways we might be required to begin making DOJ Liability payments and our estimates of the likelihood of these outcomes, as further discussed in Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments. The DOJ Liability as of March 31, 2021 was $70 million as specified in the Amendment dated March 30, 2021.

    Rate lock commitments. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the rate lock commitments is the pull through rate. The pull through rate is a statistical analysis of our actual rate lock fallout history to determine the sensitivity of the residential mortgage loan pipeline compared to interest rate changes and other deterministic values. New market prices are applied based on updated loan characteristics and new fallout ratios (i.e. the inverse of the pull through rate) are applied accordingly. Significant increases (decreases) in the pull through rate in isolation result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Fair Value Option

    We elected the fair value option for certain items as discussed throughout the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements to more closely align the accounting method with the underlying economic exposure. Interest income on LHFS is accrued on the principal outstanding primarily using the "simple-interest" method.

    The following table reflects the change in fair value included in earnings of financial instruments for which the fair value option has been elected:

Note 17 - Segment Information

    Our operations are conducted through 3 operating segments: Community Banking, Mortgage Originations, and Mortgage Servicing. The Other segment includes the remaining reported activities. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activity from which revenues are earned and expenses are incurred for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by executive management in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The operating segments have been determined based on the products and services offered and reflect the manner in which financial information is currently evaluated by Management. Each segment operates under the same banking charter, but is reported on a segmented basis for this report. Each of the operating segments is complementary to each other and because of the interrelationships of the segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities.

The Community Banking segment originates loans, provides deposits and fee-based services to consumer, business, and mortgage lending customers through its Branch Banking, Business Banking and Commercial Banking, Government Banking and Warehouse Lending. Products offered through these groups include checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit,CD, consumer loans, commercial loans, CRE loans, home builder finance loans and warehouse lines of credit. Other financial services available include consumer and corporate card services, customized treasury management solutions, merchant services and capital markets services such as loan syndications, and investment and insurance products and services. The interest income on LHFI is recognized in the Community Banking segment, excluding residential first mortgages and newly originated home equity products within the Mortgage Originations segment.

The Mortgage Originations segment originates and acquires one-to-four family residential mortgage loans to sell or hold on our balance sheet. Loans originated-to-sell comprise the majority of the lending activity. These loans are originated through mortgage branches, call centers, the Internet and third-party counterparties. The Mortgage Originations segment recognizes interest income on loans that are held-for-sale and the gains from sales associated with these loans, along with the interest income on residential mortgages and newly originated home equity products within LHFI.

The Mortgage Servicing segment services and subservices mortgage and other consumer loans for others on a fee for service basis and may also collect ancillary fees and earn income through the use of noninterest-bearing escrows. Revenue for those serviced and subserviced loans is earned on a contractual fee basis, with the fees varying based on our responsibilities and the status of the underlying loans. The Mortgage Servicing segment also services loans for our LHFI portfolio and our own LHFS portfolio in the Mortgage Originations segment, for which it earns revenue via an intercompany service fee allocation.

7984


The Other segment includes the treasury functions, which include the impact of interest rate risk management, balance sheet funding activities and the administration of the investment securities portfolios, as well as miscellaneous other expenses of a corporate nature. In addition, the Other segment includes revenue and expenses related to treasury and corporate assets and liabilities and equity not directly assigned or allocated to the Community Banking, Mortgage Originations or Mortgage Servicing operating segments.

Revenues are comprised of net interest income (before the provision (benefit) for credit losses) and noninterest income. Noninterest expenses and a majority of provision (benefit) for income taxes, are allocated to each operating segment. Provision for credit losses is allocated to segments based on net charge-offs and changes in outstanding balances. In contrast, the level of the consolidated provision for credit losses is determined based on an allowance model using the methodologies described in Item 2 – MD&A. The net effect of the credit provision is recorded in the Other segment. Allocation methodologies may be subject to periodic adjustment as the internal management accounting system is revised and the business or product lines within the segments change.

    The following tables present financial information by business segment for the periods indicated:

PART II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

    See Legal Proceedings in Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

    We are reviewing and updating our risk factors to contemplate the strategic merger with New York Community Bancorp, Inc. ("NYCB"), including the followingThe Company believes that there have been no material changes fromto the risk factors reportedpreviously disclosed in the Company'sresponse to Item 1A. to Part I, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the periodfiscal year ended December 31, 2020:

Failure2020 and updated per Item 1A. to complete the proposed merger with NYCB could negatively affect our stock price, our future business or our financial results.

If our pending merger with NYCB is not completed for any reason, our business may be adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the merger, we would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

We may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative effects on our stock price.
We may experience negative reactions from vendors, customers or employees.
We will have incurred substantial expenses and will be required to pay certain costs relating to the merger, including legal, accounting, and other fees, whether or not the merger is completed.
Our management team will have devoted substantial time and resources to matters relating to the merger and would otherwise have devoted their time and resources to other opportunities that may have been beneficial to us.
We will be subject to uncertainties while our merger with NYCB is pending, which could adversely affect our business.

Uncertainty about the effect of the merger on our employees and customers may have an adverse effect on us. These uncertainties may impair our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the merger is consummated and for a period of time thereafter, and could cause customers to seek to change their existing business relationships with us. Employee retention may be particularly challenging during this period, as employees may experience uncertainty about their roles with the surviving corporation following the merger. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, we have agreed to operate our business in
the ordinary course and to refrain from taking certain actions that could adversely affect our business without NYCB’s consent. These restrictions may prevent us from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the merger.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated and our merger with NYCB may not be completed.

The Merger Agreement is subject to a number of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals and the requisite approvalsPart II, of our shareholders and NYCB’s shareholders. Conditions to the closing of the merger may not be fulfilled in a timely manner or at all, and, accordingly, the merger may be delayed or may not be completed. In addition, we and/or NYCB may elect to terminate the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances. Furthermore, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, as specified by the Merger Agreement, we will be required to pay a termination fee of $90 million to NYCB.

In addition, if the Merger Agreement is terminated and we seek another merger or business combination, the market price of our common stock could decline, which could make it more difficult to find a party willing to offer equivalent or more attractive consideration than the consideration NYCB has agreed to provide in the merger.

Our ability to complete our pending merger with NYCB is subject to various regulatory approvals, which may impose conditions that could adversely affect us.

Before our pending merger with NYCB may be completed, NYCB must obtain federal and state regulatory approvals, including approval of the FRB, the FDIC, the New York Department of Financial Services and certain mortgage agencies. These regulators may impose conditions or place restrictionsQuarterly Report on the completion of the merger, and any such conditions or restrictions could have the effect of delaying completion of the merger or causing a termination of the Merger Agreement.
83


There can be no assurance as to whether regulatory approvals will be received, the timing of those approval, or whether any conditions will be imposed.

Shareholder litigation could prevent or delay the closing of our pending merger with NYCB or otherwise negatively affect our business and operations.

We may incur additional costs in connection with the defense or settlement of any shareholder lawsuits filed in connection with our pending merger with NYCB. Such litigation could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and could prevent or delay the consummation of the merger.

Because the market price of NYCB’s common stock may fluctuate, our shareholders cannot be certain of the precise value of the merger consideration they may receive in our proposed merger with NYCB.

At the time our pending merger with NYCB is completed, each issued and outstanding share of our common stock will be converted into the right to receive 4.0151 shares of NYCB’s common stock. There will be a time lapse between each of the date of the joint proxy statement/prospectusForm 10-Q for the shareholders’ meeting to approve the merger, the date on which our shareholders vote to approve the merger,three and the date on which our shareholders entitled to receive shares of NYCB’s common stock actually receive such shares. The market value of NYCB’s common stock may fluctuate during thesesix month periods as a result of a variety of factors, including general market and economic conditions, changes in NYCB’s and our businesses, operations and prospects, the recent volatility in the prices of securities in global financial markets, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and regulatory considerations. Many of these factors are outside of our and NYCB’s control. Consequently, at the time that our shareholders must decide whether to approve the merger, they will not know the actual market value of the shares of NYCB’s common stock they will receive when the merger is completed. The actual value of the shares of NYCB’s common stock received by our shareholders will depend on the market value of shares of NYCB’s common stock at the time the merger is completed.ended June 30, 2021.
