In management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.

To prepare unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to makemakes estimates and assumptions thatbased on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expensesin the financial statements and related disclosures.the disclosures provided. Management believes that the judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statementsunaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are appropriate based on the facts and circumstances at the time. Actual results, however, could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to management's estimate of the ACL on investment securities, management's estimate of the ACL on loans, management's estimate of the ACL on unfunded commitments, management's evaluation of goodwill impairment and management's estimate of the fair value of financial instruments.

(c) Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies used in preparation of the Company'sunaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are disclosed in greater detail in the 20162022 Annual Form 10-K. There have not been any material changes in the Company's significant accounting policies from those contained in the 20162022 Annual Form 10-K except for accounting policies for stock-based compensation relating toduring the issuance of restricted stock units, including grants subject to performance-based and market-based vesting conditions, adopted January 1, 2017 as discussed below.
Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation cost is recognized for stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units issued to employees and directors, based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. Compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period, generally defined as the vesting period, on a straight-line basis. Compensation cost for restricted stock units with market-based vesting is recognized over the service period to the extent the restricted stock units are expected to vest. With the adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update ("ASU" or "Update") 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, forfeitures are recognized as they occur.
The market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant is used to determine the fair value of the restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. The fair value of stock options granted is estimated based on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Certain restricted stock unit grants are subject to performance-based vesting as well as other approved vesting conditions and

10



cliff vest based on those conditions, and the fair value is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model include the expected term based on the valuation date and the remaining contractual term of the award; the risk-free interest rate based on the U.S. Treasury curve at the valuation date of the award; the expected dividend yield based on expected dividends being payable to the holders; and the expected stock price volatility over the expected term based on the historical volatility over the equivalent historical term.three months ended March 31, 2023.
(d) Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
FASB ASU 2014-092020-04, Revenue from Contracts with CustomersReference Rate Reform (Topic 848), as amended by ASU 2021-01, and ASU 2022-06 was issued in May 2014. UnderMarch 2020 and provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments in this Update,ASU are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020. In December 2022, FASB created a newamended this ASU and deferred the sunset date of Topic 606 which is in response848 from December 31, 2022, to a joint initiativeDecember 31, 2024. The amendments are elective, apply to all entities, and provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The Bank’s interest rate swap-related transactions are the majority of FASB andthe Company's LIBOR exposure. Effective January 25, 2021, the Company adhered to the Interbank Offered Rate Fallbacks Protocol as published by the International Accounting Standards Board to clarifySwaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. and recommended by the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and international financial reporting standards that would:
Remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements.
Provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues.
Improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets.
Provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements.
Simplify the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer.
The original effective date for this Update was deferred in FASB ASU 2015-14 below.
FASB ASU 2015-14Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), was issued in August 2015 and defers the effective date of the above-mentioned FASB ASU 2014-09 for certain entities. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is now permitted, but only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company expects to adopt the revenue recognition guidance on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach.  A significant amount of the Company’s revenues are derived from net interest income on financial assets and liabilities, which are excluded from the scope of the amended guidance.  With respect to noninterest income and related disclosures, the Company is in its preliminary stages of identifying and evaluating the revenue streams and underlying revenue contracts within the scope of the guidance. To date, the Company has not yet identified any significant changes in the timing of revenue recognition when considering the amended accounting guidance; however, the Company’s implementation efforts are ongoing and such assessments may change prior to the January 1, 2018 implementation date. The Company expects to develop processes and procedures to ensure it is fully compliant with these amendments at the adoption date.
FASB ASU 2016-01Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Subtopic 825-10), was issued in January 2016, to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. This Update contains several provisions, including but not limited to 1) requiring equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; 2) simplifying the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; 3) eliminating the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value; and 4) requiring separate presentation of financial assets and liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. The Update also changes certain financial statement disclosure requirements, including requiring disclosures of the fair value of financial instruments be made on the basis of exit price. The Update is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.Alternative Reference Rates Committee. The Company does not expect the adoption of this Update willASU to have a significantmaterial impact on the Company’s statements of financial conditionits business operations or income.  Management is in the planning stages of developing processes and procedures to comply with the disclosures requirements of this Update, which could impact the disclosures the Company makes related to fair value of its financial instruments.
FASB ASU 2016-02Leases (Topic 842) was originally issued in February 2016, to increase transparency and comparability of leases among organizations and to disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The Update sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. The Update requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either a finance or operating lease. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a

11



lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. All cash payments will be classified within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Update is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company anticipates adopting the Update on January 1, 2019. Upon adoption of the guidance, the Company expects to report increased assets and increased liabilities on its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as a result of recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to certain banking offices and certain equipment under noncancelable operating lease agreements, which currently are not reflected in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.  During 2017, management began its evaluation of its leasing contracts and activities. Management is in the initial stages of developing its methodology to estimate the right-of use assets and lease liabilities. The Company anticipates electing an accounting policy to not recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of twelve months or less. The Company was committed to $14.7 million of minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating lease agreements at December 31, 2016. The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment will have a significant impact to its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
FASB ASU 2016-082022-02, Revenue from Contracts with CustomersFinancial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 606)326): Principal versus Agent ConsiderationsTroubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, was issued in March 20162022. The ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for TDR loans by creditors while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and it clarifies the implementation guidance of the above-mentioned FASB ASU 2014-09 as it relates to principal versus agent considerations. The Update addresses identifying the unit of account and nature of the goods or services as well asrestructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the control principlerecognition and interactions withmeasurement guidance for TDRs, the control principle. The amendmentsentity will apply the loan refinancing and restructuring guidance to determine whether a modification or other form of restructuring results in a new loan or continuation of an existing loan. Additionally, the Update do not change the core principle of the guidance. The effective date, transition requirements and impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for this Update are the same as those described in FASB ASU 2015-14 above.
FASB ASU 2016-09Stock Compensation (Topic 718), issued in March 2016, is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions. Forrequires public business entities the guidance is effectiveto disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for annual periods after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods with early adoption permitted. Certain amendments are required to be applied using a modified retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted. Other amendments are applied retroactively (such as presentation of employee taxes paid on the statement of cash flows) or prospectively (such as recognition of excess tax benefits on the income statement). The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017. The Company made an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures as they occurfinancing receivables and this change resulted in a cumulative adjustment that was immaterial to all periods presented. Changes to the statement of cash flows have been applied prospectively and the Company recorded excess tax benefits in its income tax expense. Adoption of all other changes under this Update did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
FASB ASU 2016-10Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, was issued in April 2016 which clarifies the implementation guidance of the above-mentioned FASB ASU 2014-09 as it relates to identifying performance obligations and licensing. The effective date, transition requirements and impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for this Update are the same as those described in FASB ASU 2015-14 above.
FASB ASU 2016-12Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, was issued in May 2016. The amendments in this Update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. Rather, the amendments in this Update affect only the narrow aspects of Topic 606. The effective date, transition requirements and impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for this Update are the same as those described in FASB ASU 2015-14 above.
FASB ASU 2016-13Financial Instruments: Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, was issued in June 2016. Commonly referred to as the current expected credit loss model ("CECL"), this Update requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount. The amendment affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables and any other financial asset not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. The Update replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology, which generally only considered past events and current conditions, with a methodology that reflects the expected credit losses and required consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate all expected

credit losses. The Update additionally addresses purchased assets and introduces the purchased financial asset with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination ("PCD"). The accounting for these PCD assets is similar to the existing accounting guidance of FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, for purchased credit impaired ("PCI") assets, except the subsequent improvements in estimated cash flows will be immediately recognized into income, similar to the immediate recognition of subsequent deteriorations in cash flows. Current guidance only allows for the prospective recognition of these cash flow improvements. Because the terminology has been changed to a "more-than-insignificant" amount of credit deterioration, the presumption is that more assets might qualify for this accounting under the Update than those under current guidance. For public business entities, the Update isleases. These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019,2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years after December 15, 2018. An entity will apply the Update through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities. An entity that has previously applied the guidance of FASB ASC 310-30 will prospectively apply the guidance in this Update for PCD assets. A prospective transition approach should be used for PCD assets where upon adoption, the amortized cost basis should be adjusted to reflect the addition of the allowance for credit losses. The Company is anticipating adopting the Update on January 1, 2020. Upon adoption,since the Company expects a change in the processes, internal controls and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. The new guidance may result in an increase in the allowance for loan losses which will also reflect the new requirement to include the nonaccretable principal differences on PCI loans; however, the Company is still in the process of determining the magnitude of the increase and its impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, the current accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities available for sale will be replaced with an allowance approach. During 2017, the Company's management created a CECL steering committee which will begin developing and implementing processes and procedures to ensure it is fully compliant withpreviously adopted the amendments at the adoption date. To date, the CECL steering committee has reviewed proposals from several vendors to assist the Company in the adoption.
FASB ASU 2016-15Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, was issued in August 2016.

For public business entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.2016-13.

This update requires prospective transition for the disclosures related to loan restructurings for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty and the presentation of gross write-offs in the vintage disclosures. The guidance related to the recognition and measurement of TDRs may be applied usingadopted on a prospective or modified retrospective transitional method to each period presented. transition method.
The Company has evaluatedadopted ASU 2022-02 on a prospective basis January 1, 2023. The Company elected at the newdate of adoption to account for existing TDR loans as of December 31, 2022 under the Company's TDR accounting policy which is disclosed in the 2022 Annual Form 10-K. All loan modifications post adoption are accounted for under the loan modification guidance and does not anticipate that itsin ASC 310-20. The adoption of this Update on January 1, 2018 will have a significant impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
FASB ASU 2017-03, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF Meetings (SEC Update), was issued in January 2017. The SEC staff view is that a registrant should evaluate FASB ASC Updates that havedid not yet been adopted to determine the appropriate financial disclosures about the potential material effects of the updates on the financial statements when adopted. If a registrant does not know or cannot reasonably estimate the impact of an update, then in addition to making a statement to that effect, the registrant should consider additional qualitative financial statement disclosures to assist the reader in assessing the significance of the impact. The staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies expected to be applied compared to current accounting policies. Also, the registrant should describe the status of its process to implement the new standards and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. The amendments specifically addressed recent FASB ASC amendments to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses; Topic 842, Leases; and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers; although, the amendments apply to any subsequent amendments to guidance in the FASB ASC. The Company adopted the amendments in this Update during the fourth quarter of 2016 and appropriate disclosures have been included in this Note for each recently issued accounting standard.
FASB ASU 2017-04Goodwill (Topic 350), was issued in January 2017 and eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The loss recognized, however, should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.  The Update is effective for annual periods or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019 using a prospective transition method and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the Update will have a material impact on its Condensedbusiness operations or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Statements.Condition.

FASB ASU 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities was issued in March 2017 and changes the accounting for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium to shorten the amortization period for the premium to the earliest call date rather than to the maturity date. Accounting for purchased callable debt securities held at a discount does not change. The discount would continue to amortize to the maturity date. The updated is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the Update will have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as the Company had been accounting for premiums as prescribed under this guidance. The Company anticipates early adopting this Update in January 2018.

FASB ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting was issued in May 2017 to provide clarity as to when to apply modification accounting when there is a change in the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. According to this Update, an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value, vesting conditions and balance sheet classification of the award is the same after the modification as compared to the original award prior to the modification. The Update is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the Update will have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The unrealized losses are primarily duewere attributable to increaseschanges in market interest rates relative to where these investments fall within the yield curve and larger spreads in the marketindividual characteristics. Management monitors published credit ratings for mortgage-related products. The fair valueadverse changes for all rated investment securities and none of these securities is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date and/or as the pricing spreads narrow on mortgage-related securities.

In addition, the Company hasdoes not intend to sell these securities nor does the ability and intentCompany consider it more likely than not that it will be required to holdsell these securities before the investments until recovery of the securities' amortized cost basis, which may be theupon maturity.

Accordingly, the Company did not measure expected credit losses on investment securities held to maturity since the historical credit loss information adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts results in an expectation that nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is zero.

These loans are identified as "PCI" loans. Loans purchased that are not accounted for under FASB ASC 310-30 are accounted for under FASB ASC 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, and are referred to as "non-PCI" loans.syndicated loan purchases.
(a) Loan Origination/Risk Management
The CompanyBank categorizes the individual loans in one of the four segments of the total loan portfolio:portfolio into four segments: commercial business, one-to-four familybusiness; residential real estate; real estate construction and land developmentdevelopment; and consumer. Within these segments are classes of loans for which management monitors and assesses credit risk in the loan portfolios. A detailed description of the portfolio segments and classes is contained in the 2022 Annual Form 10-K.
The CompanyBank has certain lending policies and proceduresguidelines in place that are designed to maximize loan income within an acceptable level of risk. Management reviews and approves these policies and proceduresguidelines on a regular basis. A reporting system supplements the review process by providing management with frequent reports related to loan production, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and nonperforming and potential problemcriticized loans. The CompanyBank also conducts internal loan reviews and validates the credit risk assessment on a periodic basis and presents the results of these reviews to management. The loan review process complements and reinforces the risk identification and assessment decisions made by loan officers and credit personnel, as well as the Company’s policies and procedures.personnel.
A discussion of the risk characteristics of each loan portfolio segment is as follows:
Commercial Business:
There are three significant classesThe amortized cost of loans in the commercial business portfolio segment: commercial and industrial, owner-occupied commercial real estate and non-owner occupied commercial real estate. The owner and non-owner occupied commercial real estate are both considered commercial real estate loans. As the commercial and industrial loans carry different risk characteristics than the commercial real estate loans, they are discussed separately below.
Commercial and industrial. Commercial and industrial loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flowsreceivable, net of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial and industrial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may include a personal guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers. Commercial and industrial loans carry more risk than other loans because the borrowers’ cash flow is less predictable, and in the event of a default, the amount of loss is potentially greater and more difficult to quantify because the value of the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate, may be uncollectible, or may be obsolete or of limited use, among other things.

17



Commercial real estate. The Company originates commercial real estate loans primarily within its primary market areas. These loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial and industrial loans in that these loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate properties. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and paymentsACL on loans, and repayment is dependent on successful operation and management of the properties. The value of the real estate securing these loans can be adversely affected by conditions in the real estate market or the economy. There is little difference in risk between owner-occupied commercial real estate loans and non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans.
One-to-Four Family Residential:
The majority of the Company’s one-to-four family residential loans are secured by single-family residences located in its primary market areas. The Company’s underwriting standards require that single-family portfolio loans generally are owner-occupied and do not exceed 80% of the lower of appraised value at origination or cost of the underlying collateral. Terms of maturity typically range from 15 to 30 years. The Company sells most of its single-family loans in the secondary market and retains a smaller portion in its loan portfolio.
Real Estate Construction and Land Development:
The Company originates construction loans for one-to-four family residential and for five or more family residential and commercial properties. The one-to-four family residential construction loans generally include construction of custom homes whereby the home buyer is the borrower. The Company also provides financing to builders for the construction of pre-sold homes and, in selected cases, to builders for the construction of speculative residential property. Substantially all construction loans are short-term in nature and priced with variable rates of interest. Construction lending can involve a higher level of risk than other types of lending because funds are advanced partially based upon the value of the project, which is uncertain prior to the project’s completion. Because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs as well as the market value of a completed project and the effects of governmental regulation of real property, the Company’s estimates with regard to the total funds required to complete a project and the related loan-to-value ratio may vary from actual results. As a result, construction loans often involve the disbursement of substantial funds with repayment dependent, in part, on the success of the ultimate project and the ability of the borrower to sell or lease the property or refinance the indebtedness. If the Company’s estimate of the value of a project at completion proves to be overstated, it may have inadequate security for repayment of the loan and may incur a loss if the borrower does not repay the loan. Sources of repayment for these types of loans may be pre-committed permanent loans from approved long-term lenders, sales of developed property or an interim loan commitment from the Company until permanent financing is obtained. These loans are closely monitored by on-site inspections and are considered to have higher risks than other real estate loans due to their ultimate repayment being dependent upon successful completion of the construction project, interest rate changes, government regulation of real property, general economic conditions and the availability of long-term financing.
Consumer:
The Company originates consumer loans and lines of credit that are both secured and unsecured. The underwriting process for these loans ensures a qualifying primary and secondary source of repayment. Underwriting standards for home equity loans are significantly influenced by statutory requirements, which include, but are not limited to, a maximum loan-to-value percentage of 80%, collection remedies, the number of such loans a borrower can have at one time and documentation requirements. To monitor and manage consumer loan risk, policies and procedures are developed and modified, as needed. The majority of consumer loans are for relatively small amounts disbursed among many individual borrowers which reduces the credit risk for this type of loan. To further reduce the risk, trend reports are reviewed by management on a regular basis.
The Company also originates indirect consumer loans. These loans are for new and used automobile and recreational vehicles that are originated indirectly by selected dealers located in the Company's market areas. The Company has limited its purchase of indirect loans primarily to dealerships that are established and well-known in their market areas and to applicants that are not classified as sub-prime.

(b) Concentrations of Credit
Most of the Company’sBank’s lending activity occurs within its primary market areas which are concentrated along the I-5 corridor from Whatcom County, Washington to ClarkLane County, in Washington State and Multnomah County in Oregon, as well as other contiguous markets. The majority ofYakima County in Washington and Ada County in Idaho. Additionally, the Company’sBank's loan portfolio consists of (in order of balances at September 30, 2017) non-owner occupiedis concentrated in commercial real estate,business loans, which include commercial and industrial, SBA PPP, owner-occupied and owner-occupiednonowner-occupied CRE, and commercial and multifamily real estate. Asestate construction and land development loans. Commercial business loans, excluding SBA PPP loans, are generally considered as having a more inherent risk of September 30, 2017default than residential real estate loans or other consumer loans. Also, the commercial loan balance per borrower is typically larger than that for residential real estate loans and December 31, 2016, there were no concentrations ofconsumer loans, related to any single industry in excess of 10% of the Company’s total loans.implying higher potential losses on an individual loan basis.
(c) Credit Quality Indicators
As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’sBank’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (i) the risk grade of the loans, (ii) the level of classified loans, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) nonperforming loans, (v) past due status, and (v)(vi) the general economic conditions of the United States of America, and specifically the states of Washington and Oregon.
The CompanyBank utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 10. A descriptionRisk grades are aggregated to create the risk categories of Pass for grades 1 to 6, Special Mention or "SM" for grade 7, Substandard or "SS" for grade 8, Doubtful for grade 9 and Loss for grade 10. Descriptions of the general characteristics of the risk grades, is as follows:
Grades 1including qualitative information on how the risk grades relate to 5: These gradesthe risk of loss, are considered “pass grade” and include loans with negligible to above average but acceptable risk. These borrowers generally have strong to acceptable capital levels and consistent earnings and debt service capacity. Loans with the higher grades within the “pass” category may include borrowers who are experiencing unusual operating difficulties, but have acceptable payment performance to date. Increased monitoring of financial information and/or collateral may be appropriate. Loans with this grade show no immediate loss exposure.
Grade 6: This grade includes "Watch" loans and is considered a “pass grade”. The grade is intended to be utilized on a temporary basis for pass grade borrowers where a potentially significant risk-modifying action is anticipatedcontained in the near term.
Grade 7: This grade includes “Other Assets Especially Mentioned” (“OAEM”) loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines, and is intended to highlight loans with elevated risks. Loans with this grade show signs of deteriorating profits and capital, and the borrower might not be strong enough to sustain a major setback. The borrower is typically higher than normally leveraged, and outside support might be modest and likely illiquid. The loan is at risk of further decline unless active measures are taken to correct the situation.

19



Grade 8: This grade includes “Substandard” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines, which the Company has determined have a high credit risk. These loans also have well-defined weaknesses which make payment default or principal exposure likely, but not yet certain. The borrower may have shown serious negative trends in financial ratios and performance. Such loans may be dependent upon collateral liquidation, a secondary source of repayment or an event outside of the normal course of business. Loans with this grade can be placed on accrual or nonaccrual status based on the Company’s accrual policy.
Grade 9: This grade includes “Doubtful” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines, and the Company has determined these loans to have excessive credit risk. Such loans are placed on nonaccrual status and may be dependent upon collateral having a value that is difficult to determine or upon some near-term event which lacks certainty. Additionally, these loans generally have a specific valuation allowance or have been partially charged-off for the amount considered uncollectible.
Grade 10: This grade includes “Loss” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines, and the Company has determined these loans have the highest risk of loss. Such loans are charged-off or charged-down when payment is acknowledged to be uncertain or when the timing or value of payments cannot be determined. “Loss” is not intended to imply that the loan or some portion of it will never be paid, nor does it in any way imply that there has been a forgiveness of debt.
2022 Annual Form 10-K. Numerical loan grades for loans are established at the origination of the loan. LoanChanges to loan grades are reviewed onconsidered at the time new information about the performance of a quarterly basis, or more frequently if necessary, byloan becomes available, including the credit department. Thereceipt of updated financial information from the borrower, results of annual term loan reviews and scheduled loan reviews. For consumer loans, the Bank follows the FDIC’s Uniform Retail Credit Classification and Account Management Policy for subsequent classification in the event of payment delinquencies or default. Typically, an individual loan grade will not be changed from the prior period unless there is a specific indication of credit deterioration or improvement. Credit deterioration is evidenced by delinquency, direct communications with the borrower or other borrower information that becomes known to management. Credit improvements are evidenced by known facts regarding the borrower or the collateral property.
The loanLoan grades relate to the likelihood of losses in that the higher the grade, the greater the loss potential. Loans with a pass grade may have some estimated inherent losses, but to a lesser extent than the other loan grades. The OAEMSM loan grade is transitory in that the CompanyBank is waiting on additional information to determine the likelihood and extent of theany potential loss. The likelihood of loss for OAEMSM graded loans, however, is greater than Watch graded loans because there has been measurable credit deterioration. Loans with a SubstandardSS grade are generallyhave further credit deterioration and include both accrual loans for which the Company has individually analyzed for potential impairment.and nonaccrual loans. For Doubtful and Loss graded loans, the CompanyBank is almost certain of the losses and the outstanding principal balances are generally charged-offcharged off to the realizable value.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, no interest income was recognized subsequent to a loan’s classification as nonaccrual. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Bank recorded $366,000 and $1.0 million, respectively, of interest income related to performing TDR loans. For the

24



three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Bank recorded $156,000 and $501,000, respectively, of interest income related to performing TDR loans.
(g) Troubled Debt Restructured Loans
A TDR loan is a restructuring in which the Bank, for economicoperation or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. TDRs are considered impaired and are separately measured for impairment under FASB ASC 310-10-35, whether on accrual ("performing") or nonaccrual ("nonperforming") status. The Company has more stringent definitions of concessions and impairment measures for PCI loans as these loans have known credit deterioration and are generally accreting income at a lower discounted rate as compared to the contractual note rate based on the guidance of FASB ASC 310-30.
The majoritysale of the Bank’s TDR loans are a result of granting extensions of maturity on troubled credits which have already been adversely classified. The Bank grants such extensions to reassess the borrower’s financial status and to develop a plan for repayment. The second most prevalent concessions are certain modifications with extensions that also include interest rate reductions. Certain TDRs were additionally re-amortized over a longer period of time. These modifications would all be considered a concession for a borrower that could not obtain similar financing terms from another source other than from the Bank.
The financial effects of each modification will vary based on the specific restructure. For the majority of the Bank’s TDR loans, the loans were interest-only with a balloon payment at maturity. If the interest rate is not adjusted and the modified terms are consistent with other similar credits being offered, the Bank may not experience any loss associated with the restructure. If, however, the restructure involves forbearance agreements or interest rate modifications, the Bank may not collect all the principal and interest based on the original contractual terms. The Bank estimates the necessary allowance for loan losses on TDRs using the same guidance as used for other impaired loans.
The recorded investment balance and related allowance for loan losses of performing and nonaccrual TDR loans as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows:

(1)Number of contracts and outstanding principal balance represent loans which have balances as of period end as certain loans may have been paid-down or charged-off during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.
(2)Includes subsequent payments after modifications and reflects the balance as of period end. As the Bank did not forgive any principal or interest balance as part of the loan modification, the Bank’s recorded investment in each loan at the date of modification (pre-modification) did not change as a result of the modification (post-modification).

(g) Modification of Loans
In January 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (“ASU 2022-02”), which eliminated the accounting guidance TDRs while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a total outstandingborrower is experiencing financial difficulty. This guidance was applied on a prospective basis.
Modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may include interest rate reductions, principal balanceor interest forgiveness, term extensions, and other actions intended to minimize economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of $2.1 million had no prior modifications.

(h) Accrued interest receivable on loans receivable
Accrued interest receivable on loans receivable totaled $11.7 million and $11.3 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is excluded from the calculation of the ACL on loans as interest accrued, but not received, is reversed timely.
(i) Foreclosure proceedings in process
At March 31, 2023, there were no consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process.

(4)Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
The Company's methodology for determining the ACL on loans is based upon key assumptions, including the lookback periods, historic net charge-off factors, economic forecasts, reversion periods, prepayments and qualitative adjustments. The allowance is measured on a collective, or pool, basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Loans that do not share common risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis and are excluded from the collective evaluation. For a description of the Company's ACL policy, see Note 1 - Description of Business, Basis of Presentation, Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements included in Item 8. Financial Statements And Supplementary Data in our 2022 Annual Form 10-K.
GAAP requires the Company to develop reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions, and estimate how those forecasts are expected to impact a borrower’s ability to satisfy their obligation to the Company and the ultimate collectability of future cash flows over the life of a loan. The Company uses macroeconomic scenarios from an independent third party. These scenarios are based on past events, current conditions, and the likelihood of future events occurring. The Company’s ACL model at March 31, 2023 includes assumptions concerning the rising interest rate environment, ongoing inflationary pressures throughout the U.S. economy, higher energy prices, and general uncertainty concerning future economic conditions, and the potential for recessionary conditions.
The Company recognizes that historical information used as the basis for determining future expected credit losses may not always, by itself, provide a sufficient basis for determining future expected credit losses. The Company, therefore, considers the need for qualitative adjustments to the ACL on a quarterly basis. Qualitative adjustments may be related to and include, but not be limited to, factors such as: (i) management’s assessment of economic forecasts used in the model and how those forecasts align with management’s overall evaluation of current and expected economic conditions, (ii) organization specific risks such as credit concentrations, collateral specific risks, regulatory risks, and external factors that may ultimately impact credit quality, (iii) potential model limitations such as limitations identified through back-testing, and other limitations associated with factors such as underwriting changes, acquisition of new portfolios and changes in portfolio segmentation, and (iv) management’s overall assessment of the adequacy of the ACL, including an assessment of model data inputs used to determine the ACL.
As of March 31, 2023, qualitative adjustments primarily relate to certain segments of the loan portfolio deemed by management to be of a total outstanding principal balancehigher-risk profile where management believes the quantitative component of $1.4 million had no prior modifications. Of the 30 loans modified duringCompany’s ACL model may not have fully captured the nineassociated impact to the ACL. In addition, qualitative adjustments also relate to heightened uncertainty as to future macroeconomic conditions and the related impact on certain loan segments. Management reviews the need for an appropriate level of qualitative adjustments on a quarterly basis, and as such, the amount and allocation of qualitative adjustments may change in future periods.
During the three months ended September 30, 2016, 15March 31, 2023, the ACL on loans withincreased$1.5 million, or 3.4%, due primarily to a total outstanding principal balanceprovision for credit losses on loans of $1.7 million had no prior modifications. driven by growth in loans receivable and changes in loan mix primarily due to the increase in commercial and multifamily construction loans.

The Bank typically grants shorter extension periods to continually monitor these TDRs despitefollowing tables detail the fact that the extended date might not be the date the Bank expects sufficient cash flow from these borrowers. The Company does not consider these modifications a subsequent default of a TDR as new loan terms, specifically new maturity dates, were granted. The potential losses related to these loans would have been consideredactivity in the periodACL on loans by segment and class for the loan was first reported as a TDR and are adjusted, as necessary, in the current period based on more recent information. The related specific valuation allowance at September 30, 2017 was $1.1 million for loans that were modified as TDRs during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.periods indicated:
There was one commercial and industrial loan totaling $234,000 at September 30, 2017 that was modified during the previous twelve months that subsequently defaulted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 because the borrower was more than 90 days delinquent on their scheduled loan payments. There were no loans that were modified during the previous twelve months that subsequently defaulted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

On the acquisition dates, the amount by which the undiscounted expected cash flows of the PCI loans exceeded the estimated fair value of the loan is the “accretable yield.” The accretable yield is then measured at each financial reporting date and represents the difference between the remaining undiscounted expected cash flows and the current carrying value of the PCI loans.
The following table summarizes the accretable yield on the PCI loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

(14)Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received forto sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants onat the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:
Level 1: Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, or interest in open-end mutual funds that allow the Company to sell its ownership interest back to the fund at net asset value on a daily basis. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets, liabilities, or funds.
Level 2: Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or valuations using methodologies with observable inputs.
Level 3: Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, such as option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques using unobservable inputs, and not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.
(a) Recurring and Nonrecurring Basis
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to measure the fair value of certain assets on a recurring and nonrecurring basis:
Investment Securities Available for Sale:
The fair values of all investment securities are based upon the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the security. If available, fair values of investment securities are determined by quoted market prices (Level 1). For investment securities where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices on similar securities (Level 2). For investment securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated by using observable and unobservable inputs such as discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). SecurityInvestment security valuations are obtained from third partythird-party pricing servicesservices.
Collateral-Dependent Loans:
Collateral-dependent loans are identified for comparable assets or liabilities.
Impaired Loans:
At the time a loan is considered impaired, its impairment is measured based on either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price, or the fair market valuecalculation of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. Impaired loans for which impairment is measured using the discounted cash flow approach are not considered to be measured at fair value because the loan’s effective interest rate is generally not a fair value input, and for the purposes of fair value disclosures, the fair value of these loans are measured commensurate with non-impairedACL on loans. If the Company utilizes the fair market value of the collateral method, theThe fair value used to measure impairmentcredit loss for this type of loan is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals.appraisals which are generally obtained at least every 18 months or earlier if there are changes to risk characteristics of the underlying loan. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. The Bank also incorporates an estimate of cost to sell the collateral when the sale is probable. Such adjustments are usuallymay be significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value based on the borrower’s financial statements or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation and management’s expertise and knowledge of the clientcustomer and client’scustomer’s business (Level 3). ImpairedIndividually evaluated loans are evaluatedanalyzed for credit loss on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and the ACL on loans is adjusted accordingly.
Other Real Estate Owned:
Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonlyas required based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.results.
Appraisals for bothon collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers for commercial properties or certified residential appraisers for residential properties whose

qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company.Bank. Once received, the CompanyBank's internal appraisal department reviews and approves the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On a quarterly basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been liquidated to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value.
Derivative Financial Instruments:
The CompanyBank obtains broker or dealer quotes to value its interest rate derivative contracts, which use valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2), and incorporates credit valuation adjustments to reflect nonperformance risk in the measurement of fair value (Level 3). Although the Bank has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its interest rate swap derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as borrower risk ratings, to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Bank assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustment on the overall valuation of its interest rate swap derivatives and determined the credit valuation adjustment was not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate swap derivatives. As a result, the Bank has classified its interest rate swap derivative valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

(b) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Because broadlyBroadly traded markets do not exist for most of the Company’s financial instruments,instruments; therefore, the fair value calculations attempt to incorporate the effect of current market conditions at a specific time. These determinations are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and do not include tax ramifications; therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision, substantiated by comparison to independent markets and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the instruments. There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results. For all of these reasons, the aggregation of the fair value calculations presented herein do not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Company.

The methodsBank had no cash restrictions at March 31, 2023 and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair value are described as follows:December 31, 2022.
Cash
(10)Commitments and Cash Equivalents:Contingencies
The fair valueIn the ordinary course of financial instruments that are short-term or reprice frequently and that have little or no risk are considered to have a fair value equal to carrying value (Level 1).
Federal Home Loanbusiness, the Bank Stock:
FHLB stock is not publicly traded; thus, it is not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.
Loans Held for Sale:
The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts or quotes from third party investors for similar loans. (Level 2).
Loans Receivable:
Except for certain impaired loans discussed previously, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life (Level 3). While these methodologies are permitted under U.S. GAAP, they are not based on the exit price concept of the fair value required under FASB ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and generally produce a higher value.
Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable:
The fair value of accrued interest receivable/payable balances approximates the carrying value. The fair value measurements are commensurate with the asset or liability from which the accrued interest is generated (Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3).

45



Deposits:
For deposits with no contractual maturity, the fair value is assumed to equal the carrying value (Level 1). The fair value of certificate of deposit accounts is based on discounted cash flows using the difference between the deposit rate and the rates offered by the Company for deposits of similar remaining maturities (Level 2).
Federal Home Loan Bank advances:
The fair value of FHLB advances is estimated based on discounting the future cash flows using the market rate currently offered (Level 2).
Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase:
Securities sold under agreement to repurchase are short-term in nature and they reprice on a daily basis. Fair value financial instruments that are short-term or reprice frequently and that have little or no risk are considered to have a fair value equal to carrying value (Level 1).
Junior Subordinated Debentures:
The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on current rates for similarmay enter into various types of debt, which many be unobservable, and considering recent trading activity of similar instruments in markets which can be inactive (Level 3).
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments:

The majority of the commitments presented below are variable rate. Loan commitments can be either revolving or non-revolving. The Bank’s exposure to credit and market risk under commitments to extend credit is represented by the amount of these commitments.
The following table presents outstanding commitments to extend credit, including letters of credit, and commitments to sell mortgage loans carry current market interest rates if converted to loans.

In June 2016,The following table details the Company received preliminary findings from the Washington State Department of Revenue ("DOR") regarding its business and occupation ("B&O") tax audit on the B&O tax returns of Whidbey Island Bank for the years 2010-2014. The state B&O tax is a gross receipts tax and is calculated on the gross income from activities. It is measured on the value of products, gross proceeds of sale, or gross income of the business. A substantial portion of the preliminary findings related to the receipt of FDIC shared-loss payments from the FDIC to Washington Banking Company in connection with its acquisitions of City Bank in April 2010 and North County Bank in September 2010. In their preliminary findings, the DOR is considering those payments as taxable for B&O tax purposes. The total amount of this preliminary finding, along with calculated back interest, is approximately $1.6 million. Management is in discussions with the DOR as to whether these payments should be taxable for B&O tax purposes. Given the uncertainty of the outcome of these discussions, management's estimates of the Company's ultimate liability, if any, involve significant judgment and are based on currently available information and an assessment of the validity of facts and calculations assumed by the DOR. Management does not believe a material loss is probable at this time and there are significant factual and legal issues to be resolved. Management believes that it is reasonably possible that future changes to the Company's estimates of loss and the ultimate amount paid for resolution of this B&O audit could impact the Company's results of operations in future periods. Any such losses would be reported as a noninterest expenseactivity in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Income.ACL on unfunded commitments during the periods indicated:

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2023. The information contained in this section should be read together with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes included herein, the Forward-Looking Statements included herein and the December 31, 20162022 audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.10-K.


Overview
Heritage Financial Corporation is a bank holding company which primarily engages in the business activities of our wholly-owned financial institution subsidiary, Heritage Bank. We provide financial services to our local communities with an ongoing strategic focus on our commercial banking relationships, market expansion and asset quality. At September 30, 2017, we had total assets of $4.05 billion and total stockholders’ equity of $507.6 million. The Company’s business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in the Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report relates primarily to the Bank’s operations.
Our business consists primarily of commercial lending and deposit relationships with small to medium sized businesses and their owners in our market areas and attracting deposits from the general public. We also make real estate construction and land development loans and consumer loans. We additionally originate for sale or for investment purposes one-to-four family residential real estate loans on residentialsingle family properties located primarily in our markets.
Our core profitability depends primarily on our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on interest earning assets, comprised primarily of loans and investment securities, and interest expense, which is the amount we pay on our interest bearing liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. Management strives to matchmanages the repricing characteristics of the Company's interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities to protect net interest income from changes in market interest rates and changes in the shape of the yield curve. Like most financial institutions, our net interest income is significantly affected significantly by general and local economic conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates including most recently significant changes as a result of inflation, and by governmental policies and actions of regulatory agencies. Net interest income is additionally affected by changes onin the volume and mix of interest earning assets, interest earned on these assets, the volume and mix of interest bearing liabilities and interest paid on these liabilities.

Our net income is affected by many factors, including the provision for loan losses.credit losses on loans. The provision for loancredit losses on loans is dependent on changes in the loan portfolio and management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan portfolio as well as prevailing economic and market conditions. The allowance for loan lossesManagement believes that the ACL on loans reflects the amount that we believe is appropriate to provide for probable incurredcurrent expected credit losses in our loan portfolio.portfolio based on our methodology.
Net income is also affected by noninterest income and noninterest expense. Noninterest income primarily consists of service charges and other fees, gain on sale of loans (net)card revenue and other income. Noninterest expense consists primarily of compensation and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing and data processing.professional services. Compensation and employee benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for retirement and other employee benefits. Occupancy and equipment expenses are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment and consistconsists primarily of lease payments,expenses, depreciation charges, maintenance and costs of utilities. Data processing consists primarily of processing and network services related to the Bank’s core operating system, including the account processing systems,system, electronic payments processing of products and services, and internet and mobile banking channels.channels and software-as-a-service providers. Professional services consist primarily of third-party service providers such as auditors, consultants and lawyers.
Results of operations may also be significantly affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, changes in accounting, tax, and regulatory rules, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities. Otherauthorities, including changes resulting from inflation and the governmental actions taken to address this issue. Net income and other expenses areis also impacted by growth of operations through organic growth or acquisitions.
Recent Developments
While economic conditions have generally improved since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, inflation has resulted in higher prices for food, energy, housing, and various supply chain inputs, among others. These inflationary pressures have persisted throughout 2022 and 2023, resulting in higher costs for consumers and businesses. To address the persistent levels of inflation, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) has taken steps to tighten monetary policy through a cumulative 475 basis point increase to the federal funds rate from March 2022 through March 2023. The FOMC has stated that it remains committed to monetary policy measures that are designed to bring inflation down. The impact of these measures, including future actions taken by the FOMC, on the Company’s business are uncertain. While the recent increases in interest rates have generally resulted in higher levels of interest income for the Company, they may also reduce economic activity overall or result in recessionary conditions in future periods. Should these ongoing economic pressures persist, we anticipate it could have an impact on the following:
Loan growth and interest income - If economic activity begins to wane, it may have an impact on our borrowers, the businesses they operate, and their financial condition. Our borrowers may have less demand for credit needed to invest in and expand their businesses, as well as less demand for real estate loans. Such factors would place pressure on the level of interest-earning assets, which may negatively impact our interest income.
Credit quality - Should there be a decline in economic activity, the markets we serve could experience increases in unemployment, declines in consumer confidence, and a reluctance on the part of businesses to invest in and expand their operations, among other things. Such factors may result in weakened economic conditions, place strain on our borrowers, and ultimately impact the credit quality of our loan portfolio. We expect this could result in increases in the numberlevel of past due, nonaccrual, and classified loans, as well as higher net charge-offs. While economic conditions have generally been favorable thus far, notwithstanding higher levels of inflation, there can be no assurance favorable economic conditions will continue. As such, should we experience future deterioration in the credit quality of our loan portfolio, it may contribute to the need for additional provisions for credit losses.
ACL - The Company is required to record credit losses on certain financial assets in accordance with the CECL model stipulated under ASC 326, which is highly dependent upon expectations of future economic conditions and requires management judgment. Should expectations of future economic conditions deteriorate, the Company may be required to record additional provisions for credit losses.
Impairment charges - If economic conditions deteriorate, it could adversely impact the Company’s operating results and the value of certain of our assets. As a result, the Company may be required to write-down the value of certain assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, or deferred tax assets when there is evidence to suggest their value has become impaired or will not be realizable at a future date.
Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) - Unrealized gains and losses on AFS investment securities are recognized in stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). If economic conditions deteriorate, and/or if the interest rates continue to increase, the valuation of the Company’s AFS investment securities could be negatively impacted, which may lead to increases in other comprehensive loss, decreases to the Company’s stockholders’ equity.
Deposits and deposit accounts through acquisitionscosts - Given the significant rate increases by the FOMC, it is likely that deposit costs will continue to increase and core banking business growth.it may become more challenging for the Company to retain and attract deposit relationships.

Liquidity - Consistent with our prudent, proactive approach to liquidity management, we may take certain actions to further enhance our liquidity, including but not limited to, increasing our FHLB borrowings, and increasing our brokered deposits.

Earnings SummaryThe Company continues to focus on serving its customers and communities, maintaining the well-being of its employees, and executing its strategic initiatives. The Company continues to monitor the economic environment and will make changes as appropriate.

Net Interest Income and Margin Overview
One of the Company's key sources of earnings is net interest income. There are several factors that affect net interest income, including, but not limited to, the volume, pricing, mix and maturity of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities; the volume of noninterest earning assets, noninterest bearing demand deposits, and other noninterest bearing liabilities and stockholders' equity; the volume of noninterest earning assets; market interest rate fluctuations; and asset quality.
Market rates impact the results of the Company's net interest income, including the significant increases in the federal funds target rate by the Federal Reserve in response to inflation during 2022 and 2023. The following table provides the federal funds target rate history and changes from each period since December 31, 2021:

As of the dates of the completion of each of the merger and acquisition transactions, purchased loans were recorded at their estimated fair value, including our estimate of future expected cash flows until the ultimate resolution of these credits. The difference between the contractual loan balance and the fair value represents the purchased discount. The purchased discount is modified quarterly as a result of cash flow re-estimation. The incremental accretion income represents the amount of income recorded on the purchased loans in excess of the contractual stated interest rate in the individual loan notes.
Incremental accretion income was $1.0 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease in the incremental accretion was primarily a result of a continued decline in the purchased loan balances and a decrease in the prepayments of purchased loans during the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. The incremental accretion is expected to continue to decrease as the balance of the purchased loans continues to decrease.
Total interest income increased primarily due to the increase in interest and fees on loans discussed above and secondarily due to a $348,000, or 8.4%, increase in interest income on investment securities to $4.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in income on investment securities was a result of an increase in average investment yields for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, offset partially by a decrease in the average balance of investment securities. Average yields on taxable securities increased 25 basis points to 2.20% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 1.95% for the same period in 2016. Average yields on nontaxable securities increased 17 basis points to 2.34% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 2.17% for the same period in 2016. The average balance of investment securities decreased $22.8 million, or 2.8%, to $791.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $814.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The Company has actively managed its investment securities portfolio to mitigate declining trends in loan yields.
Average other interest earning assets increased $29.7 million, or 69.2%, to $72.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $42.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was due primarily to an increase in interest earning deposits, as the Bank held more funds in interest earning accounts at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest Expense
Total interest expense increased $825,000, or 54.7%, to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $1.5 million for the same period in 2016. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities increased 11 basis points to 0.36% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.25% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as a result of increases in market rates. Total average interest bearing liabilities increased by $138.6 million, or 5.8%, to $2.55 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $2.41 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2016.
The average cost of interest bearing deposits increased six basis points to 0.27% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.21% for the same period in 2016 primarily as a result of increases in both the average balance and cost of certificates of deposit and an increase in the average cost of savings accounts.
Interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $165,000, or 35.3%, to $633,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $468,000 for the same period in 2016 due to increases in the average balance and the cost of the certificates of deposits accounts. The average balance of certificates of deposits increased $15.9 million, or 4.2%, to $394.3 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $378.4 million for the same period in 2016. The cost of certificates of deposits increased 15 basis points to 0.64% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.49% for the same period in 2016.

Interest expense on savings accounts increased $146,000, or 68.2%, to $360,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $214,000 for the same period in 2016 due primarily to the 12 basis point increase of the cost of the savings accounts to 0.29% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.17% for the same period in 2016.
Interest expense on FHLB advances and other borrowings increased $420,000, or 52.5%, to $428,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $8,000 for the same period in 2016 due to a combination of an increase in both average balances and cost of funds. The average balance for FHLB advances and other borrowings increased $105.7 million, or 1,881.0%, to $111.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $5.6 million for the same period in 2016, due primarily to fund loan growth. The average rate of the FHLB advances for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was 1.53%, an increase of 96 basis points from 0.57% for the same period in 2016, due primarily to continued increases in short-term borrowing rates over the last year.
The average rate of the junior subordinated debentures, including the effects of accretion of the discount established as of the date of the merger with Washington Banking Company, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was 5.20%, an increase of 71 basis points from 4.49% for the same period in 2016. The rate increase on the debentures was due to an increase in the three-month LIBOR rate to 1.33% at September 30, 2017 from 0.85% on September 30, 2016.

Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased ten basis points to 3.85% from 3.95% for the same period in 2016 primarily due to the decline in the incremental accretion on purchased loans, as discussed below. The net interest spread for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased 13 basis points to 3.75% from 3.88% for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to the above mentioned increases in the cost of funds of interest bearing liabilities.
Net interest margin is impacted by the incremental accretion on purchased loans. The following table presents the net interest margin and effects of the incremental accretion on purchased loans for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

As of the dates of the completion of each of the merger and acquisition transactions, purchased loans were recorded at their estimated fair value, including our estimate of future expected cash flows until the ultimate resolution of these credits. The difference between the contractual loan balance and the fair value represents the purchased discount. The purchased discount is modified quarterly as a result of cash flow re-estimation. The incremental accretion income represents the amount of income recorded on the purchased loans in excess of the contractual stated interest rate in the individual loan notes.
Incremental accretion income was $3.7 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease in the incremental accretion was primarily a result of a continued decline in the purchased loan balances and a decrease in the prepayments of purchased loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. The incremental accretion is expected to continue to decrease as the balance of the purchased loans continues to decrease.
Total interest income increased primarily due to the increase in interest and fees on loans discussed above and secondarily due to a $1.1 million, or 9.2%, increase in interest income on investment securities to $13.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $12.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in interest income on investment securities was the result of an increase in average investment yields for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, offset partially by a decrease in the average balance of investment securities. Average yields on taxable securities increased 28 basis points to 2.20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 1.92% for the same period in 2016. Average yields on nontaxable securities increased 15 basis points to 2.33% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 2.18% for the same period in 2016. The average balance of investment securities decreased $23.2 million, or 2.9%, to $791.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $814.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The Company has actively managed its investment securities portfolio to mitigate declining, but recently improving, loan yields.
Average other interest earning assets increased $3.2 million, or 6.7%, to $51.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $47.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was due primarily to an increase in interest earning deposits, as the Bank held more funds in interest earning accounts at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco compared to the same period in 2016.
Interest Expense
Total interest expense increased $1.5 million, or 32.7%, to $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $4.5 million for the same period in 2016. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities increased seven basis points to 0.32% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.25% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

The average balance for FHLB advances and other borrowings increased $94.9 million to $106.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $11.6 million for the same period in 2016, due primarily to fund loan growth. The average rate of the FHLB advances and other borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was 1.09%, an increase of 55 basis points from 0.54% for the same period in 2016.
The average rate of the junior subordinated debentures, including the effects of accretion of the discount established as of the date of the merger with Washington Banking Company, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was 5.05%, an increase of 62 basis points from 4.43% for the same period in 2016. The rate increase on the debentures was due to an increase in the three-month LIBOR rate to 1.33% at September 30, 2017 from 0.85% on September 30, 2016.

Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased 11 basis points to 3.89% from 4.00% for the same period in 2016 primarily due to the decline in the incremental accretion on purchased loans, as discussed below. The net interest spread for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased 14 basis points to 3.79% from 3.93% for the same period in 2016. This decrease was primarily due to the above mentioned decrease in average yields on total interest earning assets and increase in the average cost of funds of total interest bearing liabilities.
Net interest margin is impacted by the incremental accretion on purchased loans. The following table presents the net interest margin and effects of the incremental accretion on purchased loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

Provision for LoanCredit Losses Overview
The Bank has established a comprehensive methodologyaggregate of the provision for determining its allowancecredit losses on loans and the provision for loancredit losses on unfunded commitments is presented on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the provision for (reversal of) credit losses. The allowance for loan lossesACL on unfunded commitments is increased by provisions for loan losses charged to expense, and is reduced by loans charged-off, net of loan recoveries or a recovery of previous provision. For additional information, see the section entitled "Analysis of Allowance for Loan Losses" below.
The provision for loan losses is dependentincluded on the Bank’s ability to manage asset qualityunaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition within accrued expenses and control the level of net charge-offs through prudent underwriting standards. In addition, a decline in general economic conditions could increase future provisions for loan losses and have a material effect on the Company’s net income.other liabilities.

The provision for credit losses on loans recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $1.5 millionMarch 31, 2023 was due primarily to an increase in loans receivable as well as a change in mix of loans. Future assessments of the expected credit losses will not only be impacted by changes in the composition of and amount of loans and to the reasonable and supportable forecast, but will also include an updated assessment of qualitative factors, as well as consideration of any required changes in the reasonable and supportable forecast reversion period. The provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments increased due primarily to an increase in unfunded commitment balances.
The reversal of provision for credit losses recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Nonperforming assets were $11.5 million, or 0.28% of total assets and $11.7 million, or 0.30% of total assets as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the increase in nonaccrual loans was primarily due to additions to nonaccrual loans of $5.1 million, offset partially by net principal reductions of $4.3 million and charge-offs of $750,000.

Potential problem loans as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $84.1 million and $87.8 million, respectively. Potential problem loans are those loans that are currently accruing interest andstripped mortgage-backed securities are not considered impaired, but which we are monitoring becausepermitted under the financial information of the borrower causes concerns as to their ability to meet their loan repayment terms. Loans that are past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are both well secured and in the process of collection. The $3.7 million, or 4.2%, decrease in potential problem loans was primarily the result of net principal payments of $18.9 million, loans transferred to held for sale of $5.8 million, loans transferred to nonaccrual status of $4.6 million and loan grade improvements of $4.4 million, partially offset by the addition of loans graded as potential problem loans of $31.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Analysis of Allowance for Loan Losses
Management maintains an allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) to provide for estimated probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The adequacy of the ALL is monitored through our ongoing quarterly loan quality assessments.
We assess the estimated credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio by considering a number of elements including:
Historical loss experience in the loan portfolio;
Impact of environmental factors, including:
Levels of and trends in delinquencies and classified and impaired loans;
Levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries;
Trends in volume and terms of loans;
Effects of changes in risk selection and underwriting standards and other changes in lending policies, procedures and practices;
Experience, ability and depth of lending management and other relevant staff;
National and local economic trends and conditions;
Other external factors such as competition, legal and regulatory;
Effects of changes in credit concentrations; and
Other factors
We calculate an appropriate ALL for loans in our loan portfolio, except PCI loans, by applying historical loss factors for homogeneous classes of the portfolio, adjusted for changes to the above-noted environmental factors. We may record specific provisions for impaired loans, including loans on nonaccrual status and TDRs, after a careful analysis of each loan’s credit and collateral factors. Our analysis of an appropriate ALL combines the provisions made for our non-impaired loans and the specific provisions made for each impaired loan.
The allowance for loan losses on loans designated as non-PCI loans is similar to the methodology described above except that for non-PCI loans, the remaining unaccreted discounts resulting from the fair value adjustments recorded at the time the loans were purchased are additionally factored into the allowance methodology.
For the PCI loans, the acquisition date fair value incorporated our estimate of future expected cash flows until the ultimate resolution of these credits. To the extent actual or projected cash flows are less than previously estimated, additional provisions for loan losses on the PCI loan portfolio will be recognized immediately into earnings. To the extent actual or projected cash flows are more than previously estimated, the increase in cash flows is recognized immediately as a recapture of provision for loan losses up to the previously recognized provision for that loan or pool of loans, if any, and then prospectively recognized in interest income as a yield adjustment.
While we believe we use the best information available to determine the allowance for loan losses, our results of operations could be significantly affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in determining the allowance. A decline in national and local economic conditions, or other factors, could result in a material increase in the allowance for loan losses and may adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of the allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators, as part of their routine examination process, which may result in the establishment of additional allowance for loan losses based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Money market accounts increased due to an increase in public deposits. Certificate of deposit balances increased mostly due to the addition of $52 million in brokered deposits.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Other Borrowings
The Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) functions as a member-owned cooperative providing credit for member financial institutions. Advances are made pursuant to several different programs. Each credit program has its own interest rate and range of maturities. Limitations on the amount of advances are based on a percentage of the Bank's assets or on the FHLB’s assessment of the institution’s creditworthiness. At March 31, 2023, the Bank maintained a credit facility with the FHLB with available borrowing capacity of $1.2 billion with $383.1 million in advances outstanding. All FHLB borrowings at March 31, 2023 were overnight advances. At December 31, 2022, the Bank had no FHLB advances outstanding. Advances from the FHLB may be collateralized by FHLB stock owned by the Bank, deposits at the FHLB, certain commercial and residential real estate loans, investment securities or other assets.
The Bank maintains a credit facility with the Federal Reserve Bank through both the Discount Window and Bank Term Funding Program with available borrowing capacity of $640.6 million as of March 31, 2023. There were no borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Any advances on the credit facility would be secured by either investment securities or certain types of the Bank's loans receivable.
The Company utilizes securities sold under agreement to repurchase with one day maturities as a supplement to funding sources. Securities sold under agreement to repurchase are secured by pledged investment securities. Under the securities sold under agreement to repurchase, the Company is required to maintain an aggregate market value of securities pledged greater than the balance of the securities sold under agreement to repurchase. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had repurchase agreements of $39.2 million and $46.6 million, respectively.
In addition to funds obtained in the ordinary course of business, the Company assumed trust preferred securities and junior subordinated debentures as part of the acquisition of Washington Banking Company.

Dividends on common stock from the Company depend substantially upon receipt of dividends from the Bank, which is the Company’s predominant source of income. On April 19, 2023, the Company’s board of directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.22 per common share payable on May 18, 2023 to shareholders of record on May 4, 2023.

Regulatory Requirements Overview
The Company is a net charge-off of 0.13% forbank holding company under the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.18% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The improvementsupervision of the ratio was due primarilyFederal Reserve Bank. Bank holding companies are subject to fewer net charge-offs recorded duringcapital adequacy requirements of the nine months ended September 30, 2017 comparedFederal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. The Bank is a federally insured institution and thereby is subject to the same period in 2016 in additioncapital requirements established by the FDIC. The Federal Reserve capital requirements generally parallel the FDIC requirements. Failure to growth inmeet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the loan portfolio.unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, the Company and the Bank are required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital above 2.5% to avoid restrictions on certain activities including payment of dividends, stock repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers. Management believes that as of March 31, 2023, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
Nonperforming loans were $11.0 million and $10.9 million at September 30, 2017As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2016, respectively,2022, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or 0.39%events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's categories. The following table presents the actual capital ratios of the Company and 0.41% of loans receivable, net, respectively. The allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 286.71%the Bank at September 30, 2017 and 284.93% at December 31, 2016. the periods indicated:

As of September 30, 2017, the Bank identified $31.0 million of impaired loans, of which $10.5 million had no specific valuation allowance as their estimated collateral value or discounted estimated cash flow was equal to or exceeds their carrying value. The remaining $20.5 million of impaired loans at September 30, 2017 had related specific valuation allowances totaling $3.1 million. Impaired loans totaled $33.2 million at Decemberboth March 31, 2016, of which $10.1 million had no specific valuation allowance and $23.1 million had $2.7 million of specific valuation allowance.

Based on the established comprehensive methodology, management deemed the allowance for loan losses of $31.4 million at September 30, 2017 appropriate to provide for probable incurred credit losses based on an evaluation of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio at that date. This compares to an allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2016 of $31.1 million. At the applicable acquisition or merger dates, no allowance for loan losses was established on purchased loans as the loans were accounted for at their fair value and a discount was established for the loans. At September 30, 20172023 and December 31, 2016,2022, the remaining fair value discountcapital measures reflect the revised CECL capital transition provisions adopted by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC that allowed the Bank the option to delay for these purchased loans was $11.7 million and $13.5 million, respectively.

Non-maturity deposits (total deposits less certificates of deposit) increased $53.4 million, or 1.9%, to $2.93 billion at September 30, 2017 from $2.87 billion at December 31, 2016. Certificate of deposit accounts increased $37.8 million, or 10.6%, to $395.2 million at September 30, 2017 from $357.4 million at December 31, 2016 due primarily to the addition of $44.1 million of brokered certificates of deposit, which were used to supplement deposit growth in the funding of loan growth. Based on the change in the mix and volume of deposits, the percentage of certificates of deposit to total deposits increased to 11.9% at September 30, 2017 from 11.1% at December 31, 2016.
deposits. Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in other sources of funds (such as deposit inflows at less than projected levels). Borrowings may also be used on a longer-term basis to support expanded lending activities and match the maturity of repricing intervals of assets. The Bank is utilizing securities sold under agreement to repurchase as a supplement to its funding sources. Our repurchase agreements are secured by available for sale investment securities. At September 30, 2017, the Bank had securities sold under agreement to repurchase of $28.7 million, an increase of $6.6 million, or 29.7%, from $22.1 million at December 31, 2016. The increase was the result of customer activity during the period.
The Company also has junior subordinated debentures with a par value of $25.0 million which pay quarterly interest based on three-month LIBOR plus 1.56%. The debentures mature in 2037. The balance of the junior subordinated debentures was $19.9 million at September 30, 2017, which reflects the fair value of the debentures established during the Washington Banking Merger, adjusted for the accretion of discount from purchase accounting fair value adjustment.
At September 30, 2017, the Bank maintained credit facilities with the FHLB of Des Moines for $662.4 million and credit facilities with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco for $50.6 million. The Company had FHLB advances outstanding of $117.4 million and $79.6 million at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The average cost of the FHLB advances during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was1.09%. The Bank also maintains lines of credit with four correspondent banks to purchase federal funds totaling $90.0 million as of September 30, 2017. There were no federal funds purchased as of September 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.
We are required to maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient funds to fund loan originations and deposit withdrawals, satisfy other financial commitments and fund operations. We generally maintain sufficient cash and short-term investments to meet short-term liquidity needs. At September 30, 2017, cash and cash equivalents totaled $111.3 million, or 2.7% of total assets. The fair value of investment securities available for sale totaled $800.1 million at September 30, 2017 of which $257.0 million were pledged to secure public deposits or borrowing arrangements. The fair value of investment securities available for sale that were not pledged totaled $543.1 million, or 13.4%, of total assets at September 30, 2017. The fair value of investment securities available for sale with maturities of one year or less were $6.6 million, or 0.2%, of total assets at September 30, 2017.

Liquidity and Cash Flows
Our primary sources of funds are customer and local government deposits, loan principal and interest payments, loan sales and interest earned on and proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities. These funds, together with retained earnings, equity and other borrowed funds, are used to make loans, acquire investment

securities and other assets, and fund continuing operations. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by the level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition.competition so we adhere to internal management targets assigned to the loan to deposit ratio, liquidity ratio, net short-term non-core funding ratio and non-core liabilities to total assets ratio to ensure an appropriate liquidity position. The Company regularly monitors liquidity, models liquidity stress scenarios to ensure that adequate liquidity is available, and has contingency funding plans in place, which are reviewed and tested on a regular, recurring basis.

The principal objectivefollowing table summarizes the Company's available liquidity as of the Bank’s liquidity management program is to maintain the ability to meet day-to-day cash flow requirements of its customers who either wish to withdraw funds or to draw upon credit facilities to meet their cash needs. The Bank monitors the sources and uses of funds on a daily basis to maintain an acceptable liquidity position. In addition to liquidity from core deposits and the repayment and maturities of loans, the Bank can utilize established credit facilities and lines with correspondent banks or sale of investment securities.date indicated:
Heritage Financial Corporation: The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are obtained from dividends declared and paid by the Bank. There are statutory and regulatory provisions that could limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. However, management believes that such restrictions will not have an adverse impact on the ability of the Company to meets its ongoing cash obligations.

We are not aware of any reasonably likely material changes in the Condensed Consolidated Statementsmix and relative cost of Cash Flows, net cash provided by operating activities was $53.8 million forsuch resources.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our critical accounting estimates are described in detail in the nine"Critical Accounting Estimates" section within Item 7 of our 2022 Annual Form the Form 10-K. The SEC defines "critical accounting estimates" as those that require application of management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in future periods. The Company's critical accounting estimates include estimates of the ACL on loans, the ACL on unfunded commitments and goodwill. There have been no material changes in these estimates during the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures
This Form 10-Q contains certain financial measures not presented in accordance with GAAP in addition to financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-Q because it believes they provide useful and primarily consistedcomparative information to assess trends in the Company’s performance and asset quality and to facilitate comparison of netits performance with the performance of its peers. These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures are presented below.
The Company believes presenting loan yield excluding the effect of discount accretion on acquired loans is useful in assessing the impact of acquisition accounting on loan yield as the effect of loan discount accretion is expected to decrease as the acquired loans mature or roll off its balance sheet. Incremental accretion on acquired loans represents the amount of interest income recorded on acquired loans in excess of $31.8 million, net proceeds from origination and sale of loans held for sale of $2.2 million and net changethe contractual stated interest rate in accrued interest receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accrued expenses and other liabilities of $8.3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, net cash used in investing activities was $169.9 million, which consisted primarily of netindividual loan originations of $178.8 million, investment in low income housing tax credit partnerships of $8.5 million and net proceeds from purchase and sale of investment securities available for sale of $3.4 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $123.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and primarily consisted of a net increase in deposits of $91.2 million, net FHLB advances of $37.8 million and a net increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $6.6 million, offset partially by cash dividends on common stock of $11.4 million during the period.

Capital and Capital Requirements
Stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2017 was $507.6 million compared with $481.8 million at December 31, 2016. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company realized net income of $31.8 million, declared cash dividends of $11.4 million, recorded other comprehensive income of $4.4 million, recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1.6 million, and recorded a net decrease to common stocknotes due to common stock repurchasesincremental accretion of purchased discount or premium. Purchased discount or premium is the difference between the contractual loan balance and exercisesthe fair value of stock options, netacquired loans at the acquisition date, or as modified by the adoption of tax, of $515,000.
Pursuant to minimum capital requirementsASU 2016-13. The purchased discount is accreted into income over the remaining life of the FDIC effectiveloan. The impact of incremental accretion on January 1, 2015, all FDIC-insured financial institutions, including Heritage Bank, are requiredloan yield will change during any period based on the volume of prepayments, but it is expected to maintaindecrease over time as the balance of the acquired loans decreases. Similarly, presenting loan yield excluding the effect of SBA PPP loans is useful in assessing the impact of these special program loans that have substantially decreased within a minimum common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 4.5%, a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio to average assets of 4.0% and minimum risk-based capital ratios of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and total capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0% and 8.0%, respectively.short time frame.
As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized Heritage Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s categories. The following table provides our capital requirements and actual results.

Although new capital requirements were effective on January 1, 2015, certain provisions of the new rule will be phased-in from the effective date through 2019, including, among others, a new capital conservation buffer requirement, which requires financial institutions to maintain a common equity capital ratio more than 2.5% above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments based on percentages of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions. The new capital conservation buffer requirement began to be phased-in on January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will continue to increase by 0.625% on each subsequent January 1, until it reaches 2.5% on January 1, 2019. At September 30, 2017, the capital conservation buffer was 5.07% and 4.65% for the Company and the Bank, respectively, and the minimum conservation buffer requirement was 1.25%.
Quarterly, the Company reviews the potential payment of cash dividends to its common shareholders. The timing and amount of cash dividends paid on our common stock depends on the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other relevant factors. Dividends on common stock from the Company depend substantially upon receipt of dividends from the Bank, which is the Company’s predominant source of income. On October 25, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular dividend of $0.13 per common share and a special dividend of $0.10 per common share payable on November 22, 2017 to shareholders of record on November 8, 2017.

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. We incur market risk in the normal course of business through our exposure to market interest rates, equity prices and credit spreads. Our results of operations are highly dependent upon our ability to manage interest rate risk. We considerprimary market risk is interest rate risk, to be a significantwhich is the risk of loss of net interest income or net interest margin resulting from changes in market risk that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations.interest rates. Interest rate risk is measuredresults primarily from the traditional banking activities in which the Bank engages, such as gathering deposits and assessedextending loans. Many factors, including economic and financial conditions, movements in interest rates and consumer preferences, affect the difference between the interest earned on a quarterly basis. In our opinion, there has not been a material changeassets and the interest paid on our liabilities. Management regularly reviews our exposure to changes in ourinterest rates. Among the factors considered are changes in the mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, interest rate spreads and repricing periods. The risk committee of the Board of Directors oversees market risk management, including the monitoring of risk measures and limits and policy guidelines, for the amount of interest rate risk exposure sinceand its effect on net interest income and capital.
Neither we, nor the information disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
We do notBank, maintain a trading account for any class of financial instrument, nor do we, or the Bank, engage in hedging activities or purchase high-riskhigh risk derivative instruments. Moreover, neither we, have no materialnor the Bank, are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk.

Net interest income simulation
An income simulation model is the primary tool we use to assess the direction and magnitude of changes in net interest income resulting from changes in interest rates. Modeling the sensitivity of net interest income is highly dependent on numerous assumptions incorporated into the modeling process. Key assumptions in the model include prepayment speeds on loans and investment securities, repricing betas on non-maturity deposits, and pricing on investment securities, loans, and borrowings. In order to measure the interest rate risk sensitivity, this simulation model uses a “no balance sheet growth” assumption and assumes an instantaneous and sustained uniform change in market interest rates at all maturities. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the net interest income projections should be viewed as an estimate of the net interest income sensitivity at the time of the analysis. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors.
Based on the results of the simulation model, the following table presents the change in our net interest income as a result of parallel rate shock scenarios for the presented periods after the dates shown:

Decrease in net interest income in Year 2$(19,686)(7.7)%$(29,942)(11.0)%
These scenarios are based on market interest rates as of the last day of a reporting period published by independent sources that are actively traded in the open market. The simulations used to manage market risk are based on numerous assumptions regarding the effect of changes in interest rates on the timing and extent of reprice characteristics, future cash flows and customer behavior. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and actual results will differ, as a result, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income or precisely predict the impact of higher or lower net interest income.

ITEM 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedureprocedures (as defined in Section 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Company’s Disclosure Committee as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2017 areMarch 31, 2023 were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act iswas (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act) that occurred during the quarterthree months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company does not expect that its internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
