SELECT BANCORP, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Select Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a bank holding company whose principal business activity consists of ownership of Select Bank & Trust Company (referred to as the “Bank”). In 2004, the Company formed New Century Statutory Trust I, which issued trust preferred securities to provide additional capital for general corporate purposes, including the current and future expansion of the Company. New Century Statutory Trust I is not a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. On July 25, 2014, the Company changed its name from New Century Bancorp, Inc. to Select Bancorp, Inc. following its acquisition by merger of Select Bancorp, Inc., Greenville, NCNorth Carolina (which we refer to herein as “Legacy Select”). The Company is subject to the rules and regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks.

The Bank was originally incorporated as New Century Bank on May 19, 2000 and began banking operations on May 24, 2000. On July 25, 2014, the Company acquired Select Bank & Trust Company, Greenville, North Carolina, and changed the Bank’s legal name to Select Bank & Trust Company. On December 15, 2017, the Company acquired Premara Financial, Inc. (“Premara”) and its subsidiary Carolina Premier Bank (“Carolina Premier”) through the merger of Premara with and into the Company, followed immediately by the merger of Carolina Premier with and into the Bank. The Bank continues as the only banking subsidiary of the Company with its headquarters and operations center located in Dunn, NC.North Carolina. The Bank is engaged in general commercial and retail banking in central and eastern North Carolina, as well as in Charlotte,the State of North Carolina, northwest South Carolina, and the Virginia Beach, Virginia.Beach-Norfolk-Newport News, VA-NC, metropolitan statistical area. The Bank is subject to the supervision and regulation of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks.

All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In management’s opinion, the financial information, which is unaudited, reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information as of and for the three-three and nine-month periodsnine months ended September 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the three-three and nine-month periodsnine months ended September 30, 20192020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

2020.

The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by the Company and other relevant information are contained in the notes to the financial statements filed as part of the Company’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 15, 2019.11, 2020. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report.

Certain reclassifications of the information in prior periods were made to conform to the September 30, 20192020 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on shareholders’ equity or net income as previously reported.

COVID-19. The Company has evaluated for potential recognition and/or disclosure through the date the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were issued. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the disease caused by a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and around the world. The declaration of a global pandemic indicates that almost all public commerce and related business activities must be, to varying degrees, curtailed with the goal of decreasing the rate of new infections. The outbreak of COVID-19 could adversely impact a broad range of industries in which the Company��s customers operate and impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company. Several programs are available to businesses impacted by COVID-19 such as loans available through the Paycheck Protection Program, deferrals on loan payments on existing loans and a reduced interest rate program available

to financial institutions through the Federal Reserve Bank. On March 3, 2020, the Federal Open Market Committee reduced the target federal funds rate by 50 basis points to 1.00% to 1.25%. This rate was further reduced to a target range of 0% to 0.25% on March 16, 2020. These reductions in interest rates and other effects of the COVID-19 outbreak may adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. As a result of the spread of COVID-19, economic uncertainties have arisen which are likely to negatively impact net interest income and noninterest income. Other financial impact could occur though such potential impact is unknown at this time.

NOTE B - PER SHARE RESULTS

Basic net income per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options outstanding during the period. At September 30, 20192020 and 20182019 there were 172,120243,120 and 119,800172,120 anti-dilutive stock options outstanding, respectively.

NOTE C - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The following summarizes recent accounting pronouncements and their expected impact on the Company:

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 applies a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record, for all leases with a lease term of more than 12 months, an asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a liability to make lease payments. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a practical expedient is available whereby a lessee may elect, by class of underlying asset, not to recognize an ROU asset or lease liability. At inception, lessees must classify all leases as either finance or operating based on five criteria. Balance sheet recognition of finance and operating leases is similar, but the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement, as well as the effect on the statement of cash flows, differs depending on the lease classification.  For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2016-02 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.  The Company adopted this standard during the first quarter of 2019. The impact was an increase to the Consolidated Balance Sheet for ROU assets and associated lease liabilities, as well as resulting depreciation expense of the ROU assets and expense of the lease liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Additionally, adding these assets to the balance sheet impacted total risk-weighted assets used to determine the regulatory capital levels.

In July 2018, the FASB amended the Leases Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to make narrow amendments to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new standard. The amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

The Company elected to apply ASU 2016-02 as of the beginning of the period of adoption (January 1, 2019) and will not restate comparative periods. Adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in the recognition of lease liabilities totaling $9,013,900 and the recognition of ROU assets totaling $9,013,900 as of the date of adoption. The adoption of this standard did not impact beginning retained earnings. Total risk-based capital was adversely impacted by 13 basis points due to the increase in risk-weighted assets, see Note J. Lease liabilities and ROU assets are reflected in other liabilities and other assets, respectively. The initial balance sheet gross up upon adoption was primarily related to operating leases of certain real estate properties. The Company has a finance lease and no material subleases or leasing arrangements for which it is the lessor of property or equipment. The Company has elected to apply the package of practical expedients allowed by the new standard under which the Company need not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are leases or contain leases, the Company need not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing lease, and the Company need not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, guidance to change the accounting for credit losses and modify the impairment model for certain debt securities. ASU 2016-13 requires an entity to utilize a new impairment model known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model to estimate its lifetime "expected credit loss" and record an allowance that, when deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, presents the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.  The CECL model is expected to result in earlier recognition of credit losses.  ASU 2016-13 also requires new disclosures for financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans and available-for-sale debt securities.  The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption is permitted.  Entities will apply the standard's provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. On October 16, 2019, the FASB voted to delay implementation of CECL until January 2023 for certain companies, including smaller reporting companies (as defined by the SEC).  The Company currently qualifies as a smaller reporting company and is still assessing the impact that this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB amended ASU 2018-13- Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurementtopic of the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments remove, modify, and add certain fair value disclosure requirements based on the concepts in the FASB Concepts Statement,Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting—Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.2019. Early adoption is permitted. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures

upon issuance of this ASU and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company does not expectadoption of these amendments todid not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, under the amendments in this ASU, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, 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; however, the loss recognized 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. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. This ASU eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative test. The Company adopted this ASU during the first quarter of 2020 with no impact to the consolidated financial position as a result of the adoption.

In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides for temporary, optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. The provisions of this ASU are elective and applicable to all entities that have contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions, subject to certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. There are practical expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedge accounting relationships affected by reference rate reform in order to facilitate a smoother transition to new reference rates. For contracts meeting certain criteria, a change in the contract's reference interest rate would be accounted for as a continuation of that contract rather than the creation of a new contract. This provision applies to loans, debt, leases, and other arrangements. An entity will also be permitted to preserve its hedge accounting when updating its hedging strategies in response to reference rate reform. The guidance will only apply to contracts or hedge accounting relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. This ASU is effective for March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022.  The Company is still assessing this ASU but is not expecting it to have an impact to the consolidated financial position.

From time to time, the FASB issues exposure drafts for proposed statements of financial accounting standards. Such exposure drafts are subject to comment from the public, to revisions by the FASB and to final issuance by the FASB as statements of financial accounting standards. Management considers the effect of the proposed statements on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and monitors the status of changes to and proposed effective dates of exposure drafts.

NOTEDNOTE D - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but clarifies and standardizes some divergent practices that have emerged since prior guidance was issued. ASC 820 creates a three-level hierarchy under which individual fair value estimates are to be ranked based on the relative reliability of the inputs used in the valuation.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific moment in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Because no active market readily exists for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company groups assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

·

Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

·

Level 2 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

·Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale(“AFS”)

Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, U.S. Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include U.S. government agency securities,agencies, mortgage-backed securities issued by government-sponsoredgovernment sponsored entities, (“GSEs”), and municipal bonds. There have been no changes in valuation techniques for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.2020. Valuation techniques are consistent with techniques used in prior periods.

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

Impaired Loans

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and ana specific reserve in the allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC 310, “Receivables.”“Receivables”. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, or liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. At September 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, substantially all of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral. Impaired loans where an allowancea specific reserve is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the impaired loan as non-recurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as non-recurring Level 3. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s impaired loans is the discount applied to appraised values to account for expected liquidation and selling costs. At September 30, 2019,2020, the discounts

discounts used are weighted between 3% and 50%. There were no transfers between levels from the prior reporting periods, and there have been no changes in valuation techniques for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.2020.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Foreclosed real estate are properties recorded at the balance of the loan or an estimated fair value of the real estate collateral less estimated selling costs.costs, whichever is less. Inputs include appraised values on the properties or recent sales activity for similar assets in the property’s market. Therefore, foreclosed real estate is classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s foreclosed real estate is the discount applied to appraised values to account for expected liquidation and selling costs. At September 30, 2019,2020, the discounts used ranged between 6% and 10%. There have been no changes in valuation techniques for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.2020.

Assets Held for Sale

During 2015, a branch facility was taken out of service as part of the Company’s branch restructuring plan and reclassified asLoans held for sale. The property is recorded at the remaining book balance of the asset or an estimated fair value less estimated selling costs, whichever is less. Inputs include appraised values on the properties or recent sales activity for similar assets in the property’s market. Therefore, assets held for sale is classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Loans Held for Sale

The Company originates fixed and variable rate residential mortgage loans on a servicing-releasedservice-release basis in the secondary market. Loans closed but not yet settled with an investor are carried in our loans held for sale portfolio.  Virtually all of these loans have commitments to be purchased by investors and the majority of these loans were locked in by price with the investors on the same day or shortly thereafter that the loan was locked in with our customers. Therefore, these loans present very little market risk. The Company usually delivers to, and receives funding from, the investor within 30 to 60 days. Commitments to sell these loans to the investor are considered derivative contracts and are sold to investors on a “best efforts” basis. The Company is not obligated to deliver a loan or pay a penalty if a loan is not delivered to the investor. Because of the short-term nature of these derivative contracts, the fair value of the mortgage loans held for sale in most cases is materially the same as the value of the loan amount at its origination.

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Therefore, loans held for sale are classified within Level 2 of the hierarchy. Net unrealized losses are provided for in a valuation allowance by charges to operations as a component of mortgage banking income. Gains or losses on sales of loans are recognized when control over these assets are surrendered and are included in fees on the sale of mortgagesmortgage banking income in the consolidated statements of income.

The Bank has originated 1,249 loans amounting to $97.0 million during 2020 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) which are classified as Commercial and industrial loans in the loan portfolio. As of September 30, 2020 the Bank has 1,242 PPP loans amounting to $95.3 million.  The PPP loan program is sponsored by the Small Business Administration (SBA) to primarily facilitate the continuation of paychecks to employees of businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.  These loans are guaranteed by the SBA and can be forgiven and paid off by the SBA if all conditions of the program are met.  Loans that do not meet the conditions of the PPP loan program could result in the Bank incurring a charge-off.  The extent of this potential loss to the Bank is not known since the conditions of the program have changed and are subject to future changes.

A floating lien of $112.6 million of loans was pledged to the FHLB to secure borrowings at September 30, 2019.

Determining the fair value of PCI loans at acquisition required the Company to estimate cash flows expected to result from those loans and to discount those cash flows at appropriate rates of interest. For such loans, the excess of cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans and is called the accretable yield. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects the impact of estimated credit losses and is called the nonaccretable difference. In accordance with GAAP, there was no carry-over of previously established allowance for credit losses from the acquired companies.

NOTE G – LOANS HELD FOR SALE

We originateThe Company originates fixed and variable rate residential mortgage loans on a servicing-releasedservice release basis in the secondary market. Loans closed but not yet settled with an investor are carried in our loans held for sale portfolio.  Virtually all of these loans have commitments to be purchased by investors and the majority of these loans were locked in by price with the investors on the same day or shortly thereafter that the loan was locked in with our customers. Therefore, these loans present very little market risk. WeThe Company usually deliverdelivers to, and receive funding from, the investor within 30 to 60 days. Commitments to sell these loans to the investor are considered derivative contracts and are sold to investors on a “best efforts” basis. We areThe Company is not obligated to deliver a loan or pay a penalty if a loan is not delivered to the investor. Because of the short-term nature of these derivative contracts, the fair value of the mortgage loans held for sale in most cases is materially the same as the value of the loan amount at its origination.

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses are provided for in a valuation allowance by charges to operations as a component of mortgage banking income. Gains or losses on sales of loans are recognized when control over these assets are surrendered and are included in mortgage banking income in the consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE H – REVENUE RECOGNITION

–BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On January 1, 2018,December 20, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09Revenue from ContractsBank entered into a Branch Purchase and Assumption Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Customers (Topic 606)Entegra Bank (“Entegra”), by which the Bank assumed the deposits and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 606. The implementationacquired the majority of the new standard did not have a material impact on the measurement or recognition of revenue; as such, a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings was not deemed necessary. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts were not adjustedloans, property, equipment and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605.

Topic 606 does not apply to revenueother selected assets associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans3 existing Entegra branch offices. Entegra was merged with and securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as fees associated with mortgage servicing rights, financial guarantees, derivatives, and certain credit card fees are also not in scope

30

Table of the new guidance. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest revenue streams such as trust and asset management income, deposit related fees, interchange fees, merchant income, and annuity and insurance commissions. However, the recognition of these revenue streams did not change significantly upon adoption of Topic 606. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from contracts with customers. Noninterest revenue streams in-scope of Topic 606 are discussed below.Contents

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

Service charges on deposit accounts consist of insufficient funds fees, account analysis fees (i.e., net fees earned on analyzed business and public checking accounts), monthly service fees, check orders, and other deposit account related fees. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Check orders and other deposit account related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a Company ATM. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. Other service charges include revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier’s checks, and other services. The Company’s performance obligation for fees, exchange, and other service charges are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month. Other fees and income also includes other recurring revenue streams such as safe deposit box rental fees and other miscellaneous revenue streams.

Contract Balances

Table of Contents

A contract asset balance occurs when an entity performs a service for a customer before the customer pays consideration (resulting in a contract receivable) or before payment is due (resulting in a contract asset). A contract liability balance is an entity’s obligation to transfer a service to a customer for which the entity has already received payment (or payment is due) from the customer. The Company’s noninterest revenue streams are largely based on transactional activity. Consideration is often received immediately or shortly after the Company satisfies its performance obligation and revenue is recognized. The Company does not typically enter into long-term revenue contracts with customers, and therefore, does not experience significant contract balances. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any significant contract balances.

Contract Acquisition Costs

In connection with the adoption of Topic 606, an entity is required to capitalize, and subsequently amortize into expense, certain incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if these costs are expected to be recovered. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that an entity incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained (for example, sales commission). The Company utilizes the practical expedient which allows entities to immediately expense contract acquisition costs when the asset that would have resulted from capitalizing these costs would have been amortized in one year or less. Upon adoption of Topic 606, the Company did not capitalize any contract acquisition cost.

At September 30, 2019, the Company did not have any leases that had not yet commenced for which we had created a ROU asset and a lease liability. For the operating leases the Company has elected the practical expedient of not separating lease components from non-lease components and instead to account for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease as a single lease component. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Most of the lease agreements include periodic rate adjustments for inflation.

Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from 1 to 25 years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion.

Total non-performing assets (non-accrual loans, accruing TDRs, and foreclosed real estate) at September 30, 20192020 and December 31, 20182019 were $17.0 million and $12.7$15.7 million, respectively. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 20192020 represented 47%80% of non-performing assets compared to 68%53% at December 31, 2018.

2019.

Total impaired loans at September 30, 20192020 were $15.6$11.6 million. This includes $9.1included $7.7 million in loans that were classified as impaired because they were in non-accrual status and $6.5$3.9 million in loans that were determined to be impaired for other reasons.accruing loans. Of these loans, $972,000$1.6 million required a specific reserve of $284,000$506,000 at September 30, 2019.

2020.

Total impaired loans at December 31, 20182019 were $11.7$11.2 million. This included $7.3$5.9 million in loans that were classified as impaired because they were in non-accrual status and $4.4$6.2 million in accruing TDRs. Of these loans, $291,000$1.0 million required a specific reserve of $87,000$413,000 at December 31, 2018.

2019.

The allowance for loan losses was $8.1$13.6 million at September 30, 20192020 or 0.79%1.06% of gross loans outstanding as compared to 0.88%0.81% reported as a percentage of gross loans at December 31, 2018.2019. This decreaseincrease resulted primarily from reductionschanges in loans requiring a specific reserve plus qualitative factors related to interest rates, document exceptionsCOVID-19 and economic performance indicators. The Legacy Select loans, and Carolina Premier and First Citizens Bank loans were recorded at estimated fair value as of the acquisition date and the related credit risk is reflected as a fair value adjustment rather than separately in the allowance

for losses as required in acquisition accounting. This required accounting under GAAPgenerally accepted accounting principles has resulted in a lower percentage of the allowance for loan losses to gross loans. In the last few quarters past dues, nonaccruals and impaired loans have increased and those loans have been assessed for loss and charged offs have been incurred specifically on those loans for the respective expected loss. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 20192020 represented 52%99% of non-performing loans as compared to 75%69% at December 31, 2018.2019. It is management’s assessment that the allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 20192020 is appropriate in light of the risk inherent within the Company’s loan portfolio. No assurances, however, can be given that further adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may not be deemed necessary in the future. The current economic and business disruptions in the Bank’s markets, and in the national and global markets more generally, are unprecedented, as state, local, and national governing bodies attempt to address the public health emergency caused by COVID-19. Management expects the Company’s customers, including its borrowers, will continue to experience the financial impacts of COVID-19 over the balance of the 2020 fiscal year. Depending on the length of financial impact and the effectiveness of the various governmental programs put in place to stabilize economic conditions, the Company’s management would expect to see continued volatility in the Company’s allowance for loan losses and related provision expense during the remainder of 2020. The CARES Act provided an opportunity for loan customers to request a temporary modification of the payment terms on their loans granting the customer time to address cashflow issues.  The Bank entered into modifications on 497 loans amounting to $252.3 million during 2020 of which 114 loans totaling $65.6 million remained on modification as of September 30, 2020.  See Item 1A (Risk Factors) later in this report for additional discussion of COVID-19.

Other Lending Risk Factors

Besides monitoring non-performing loans and past due loans, management also monitors trends in the loan portfolio that may indicate more than normal risk. A discussion of certain other risk factors follows. Some loans or groups of loans may contain one or more of these individual loan risk factors. Therefore, an accumulation of the amounts or percentages of the individual loan risk factors may not necessarily be an indication of the cumulative risk in the total loan portfolio.

39

Regulatory Loan to Value Ratios

The Company monitors its exposure to loans that exceed the guidelines established by regulators for loan to value (“LTV”) ratios.

At September30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had $33.8$40.4 million and $27.7 million in non 1-to-4non-1-to-4 family residential loans that exceeded the regulatory LTV limits, respectively. At September 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had $10.9$7.8 million and $10.0 million of 1-to-4 family residential loans that exceeded the regulatory LTV limits, respectively. The total amount of these loans represented 25.9%28.3% and 23.2% of total risk-based capital as of September 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, which is less than the 100% maximum allowed. These loans may presentrepresent more than ordinary risk to the Company if the real estate market weakens in terms of market activity or collateral valuations.

Business Sector Concentrations

Loan concentrations in certain business sectors can be impacted by lower than normal retail sales, higher unemployment, higher vacancy rates, and a weakening in real estate market conditions. The Company has established an internal commercial real estate guideline of 40% of risk-based capital for any single product line.


At September 30, 20192020, the Company had twofive product type groups which exceeded this threshold;guideline: Office Building, which represented 59% of risk-based capital or $100.8 million; Commercial Construction, which represented 79% of risk-based capital or $134.4 million; 1-to-4 Family Rental property, which represented 62% of risk-based capital or $105.7 million; Retail property, which represented 47% of risk-based capital or $80.6 million; and Apartment Complex/Multi-Family, which represented 46% of risk-based capital or $79.7 million and Commercial Construction, which represented 46% of risk-based capital or $79.9$78.3 million. All other commercial real estate groups were at or below the 40% threshold. The internal guideline levels heighten the level of Company monitoring of such loans in underwriting and ongoing servicing activities.

At December 31, 2018,2019, the Company did not exceedhad three product types that exceeded the 40% guidelineguideline. The following product types were in any product types.excess of the 40% guidelines at such date: apartments, commercial construction and office buildings. All other commercial and residential real estate product types were under the 40% threshold.

threshold as of such date.

Interest-Only Payments

Another risk factor that exists in the total loan portfolio pertains to loans with interest-only payment terms. At September 30, 2019,2020, the Company had $225.8$300.0 million in loans that had terms permitting interest-only payments. This represented 22.2%23.4% of the total loan portfolio. At December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had $224.6$249.9 million in loans that had terms permitting interest-only payments. This represented 22.8%24.3% of the total loan portfolio. Recognizing the risk inherent with interest-only loans, it is customary and general industry practice that loans in the ADC portfolio permit interest-only payments during the acquisition, development, and construction phases of such projects.

Large Dollar Concentrations

Concentrations of high dollar loans or large customer relationships may pose additional risk in the total loan portfolio. The Company’s ten largest loans or lines of credit totaled $77.6$85.1 million, or 7.6%6.6% of total loans, at September 30, 20192020 compared to $70.6$82.0 million, or 7.2%8.0% of total loans, at December 31, 2018.2019. The Company’s ten largest customer relationships totaled $125.8$149.8 million, or 12.4%11.7% of total loans, at September 30, 20192020 compared to $106.8$129.5 million, or 10.8%12.6% of total loans, at December 31, 2018.2019. Deterioration or loss in any one or more of these high dollar loan or customer concentrations could have an immediate, significant adverse impact on the Company’s capital position.

Provision for Income Taxes. The Company’s effective tax rate was 22.0%20.6% and 22.4%22.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, respectively.

As of September 30, 20192020 and December, 31, 2018,2019, the Company had a net deferred tax asset in the amount of $3.3$3.6 million and $3.7$2.8 million, respectively. In evaluating whether the Company will realize the full benefit of the net deferred tax asset, management considered both positive and negative evidence, including among other things recent earnings trends, projected earnings, and asset quality. As of September 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, management concluded that the net deferred tax assets were fully realizable. The Company will continue to monitor deferred tax assets closely to evaluate whether the full benefit of the net deferred tax asset will require a valuation allowance. Significant negative trends in credit quality or losses from operations, among other trends, could impact the realization of the deferred tax asset in the future.

Liquidity

Liquidity

The Company’s liquidity is a measure of its ability to fund loans, withdrawals and maturities of deposits, and other cash outflows in a cost-effectivecost effective manner. The principal sources of liquidity are deposits, scheduled payments and prepayments of loan principal, maturities of investment securities, access to liquid deposits, and funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan payments and maturing investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. Liquid assets (consisting of cash and due from banks, interest-earning deposits with other banks, federal funds sold and investment securities classified as available for sale) represented 12.7%20.9% of total assets at September 30, 2019 and decreased2020 as compared to 15.2%11.9% as of December 31, 2018.2019.

The Company has been a net seller of federal funds since its inception and strives to maintain a position of liquidity sufficient to fund future loan demand and to satisfy fluctuations in deposit levels. Federal funds sold was $10.7 million at September 30, 2019. Should the need arise, the Company would have the capability to sell securities classified as available for sale or to borrow funds as necessary. As of September 30, 2019,2020, the Company had existing credit lines with other financial institutions to purchase up to $243.2$243.0 million in federal funds. Also, as a member of the FHLB of Atlanta, the Company may obtain advances of up to 10% of total assets, subject to available collateral. A floating lien of $112.6$87.6 million of qualifying loans is pledged to the FHLB to secure borrowings. At September 30, 2019,2020, the Company had $45.0 million in FHLB advances outstanding. Another source of short-term borrowings available to the Bank is securities sold under agreements to repurchase. At September 30, 2019,2020, in addition to FHLB advances, total borrowings consisted of junior subordinated debentures of $12.4 million.

Total deposits were $987.7 million$1.5 billion at September 30, 2019.2020. Time deposits, which are the only deposit accounts that have stated maturity dates, are generally considered to be rate sensitive. Time deposits represented 42.2%27.3% of total deposits at September 30, 2019.2020. Time deposits of $250,000 or more represented 16.0%9.6% of the Company’s total deposits at September 30, 2019.2020. At quarter-end, the Company had $13.5$3.1 million in brokered time deposits and no$1.5 in brokered demand deposits. Management believes most other time deposits are relationship-oriented. While the Bank will need to pay competitive rates to retain these deposits at their maturities, there are other subjective factors that will determine their continued retention. Based upon prior experience, the Company anticipates that a substantial portion of outstanding certificates of deposit will renew upon maturity.

Management believes that current sources of funds provide adequate liquidity for the Bank’s current cash flow needs. The Company maintains minimal cash balances at the parent holding company level. Management believes that the current cash balances will provide adequate liquidity for the Company’s current cash flow needs.

Capital Resources

A significant measure of the strength of a financial institution is its capital base. Federal regulations have classified and defined capital into the following components: (1) Tier 1 capital, which includes common shareholders’ equity and qualifying preferred equity, and (2) Tier 2 capital, which includes a portion of the allowance for loan losses, certain qualifying long-term debt and preferred stock which does not qualify as Tier 1 capital. Commencing in the first quarter of 2015, financial institutions and their holding companies became subject to a revised set of regulatory capital requirements, due in part to agreements reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. Under the revised capital rules, theThe Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based ratio which does not include limited life components such as trust preferred securities and SBLF preferred stock in the calculation, was added as part on an institution’s capital ratio profile.this calculation. Minimum capital levels are regulated by risk-based capital adequacy guidelines, which require a financial institution to maintain capital as a percentage of its assets, and certain off-balance sheet items adjusted for predefined credit risk factors (risk-adjusted assets). The Company’s equity to assets ratio was 12.04% at September 30, 2020.

During 2004, the Company issued $12.4 million of junior subordinated debentures to a newly formed subsidiary, New Century Statutory Trust I, which in turn issued $12.0 million of trust preferred securities. The proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities provided additional capital for the growth and expansion of the Bank. Under the current applicable regulatory guidelines, all of the proceeds from the issuance of these trust preferred securities qualify as Tier 1 capital as of September 30, 2019. During the third quarter of 2018 the Company completed a common stock offering netting $59.8 million which resulted in an increase in capital ratios for the holding company. Shortly after the receipt of the common stock offering proceeds, $25.0 million was downstreamed to the Bank, increasing its capital ratios.

2020.

Management expects that the Bank will remain “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes, although there can be no assurance that additional capital will not be required in the future.

The Company’s equity to assets ratio was 16.7% at September 30, 2019.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

The Company intends to reach its strategic financial objectives through the effective management of market risk. Like many financial institutions, the Company’s most significant market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company'sCompany’s primary goal in managing interest rate risk is to minimize the effect that changes in market interest rates have on earnings and capital. This goal is accomplished through the active management of the balance sheet. The goal of these activities is to structure the maturity and repricing ofassets and liabilities to produce stable net interest income despite changing interest rates. The Company'sCompany’s overall interest rate risk position is governed by policies approved by the Board of Directors and guidelines established and monitored by the Bank’s Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”).

To measure, monitor, and report on interest rate risk, the Company begins with two models: (1) net interest income ("NII"(“NII”) at risk, which measures the impact on NII over the next twelve and twenty-four months to immediate changes in interest rates and (2) net economic value of equity ("EVE"(“EVE”), which measures the impact on the present value of net assets to immediate changes in interest rates. NII at risk is designed to measure the potential short-term impact of changes in interest rates on NII.

50

Table of Contents

EVE is a long-term measure of interest rate risk to the Company'sCompany’s balance sheet, or equity. Gap analysis, which is the difference between the amount of balance sheet assets and liabilities repricing within a specified time period, is used as a secondary measure of the Company'sCompany’s interest rate risk position. All of these models are subject to ALCO guidelines and are monitored regularly.

In calculating NII at risk, the Company begins with a base amount of NII that is projected over the next twelve and twenty-four months, assuming that the balance sheet is static and the yield curve remains unchanged over the period. The current yield curve is then “shocked,” or moved immediately, ±1.0 percent, ±2.0 percent, ±3.0 percent and ±4.0 percent in a parallel fashion, or at all points along the yield curve. New twelve-month and twenty four-month NII projections are then developed using the same balance sheet but with the new yield curves, and these results are compared to the base scenario. The Company also models other scenarios to evaluate potential NII at risk such as a gradual ramp in interest rates, a flattening yield curve, a steepening yield curve, and others that management deems appropriate.

EVE at risk is based on the change in the present value of all assets and liabilities under different interest rate scenarios. The present value of existing cash flows with the current yield curve serves as the base case. The Company then applies an immediate parallel shock to that yield curve of ±1.0 percent, ±2.0 percent, ±3.0 percent and ±4.0 percent and recalculates the cash flows and related present values.

Key assumptions used in the models described above include the timing of cash flows, the maturity and repricing of assets and liabilities, changes in market conditions, and interest-rate sensitivities of the Company'sCompany’s non-maturity deposits with respect to interest rates paid and the level of balances. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the models cannot precisely calculate future NII or predict the impact of changes in interest rates on NII and EVE. Actual results could differ from simulated results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of changes in interest rates and market conditions, changes in spreads and management strategies, among other factors. Projections of NII are assessed as part of the Company'sCompany’s forecasting process.

NII and EVE Analysis. The following table presents the estimated exposure to NII for the next twelve months due to immediate changes in interest rates and the estimated exposure to EVE due to immediate changes in interest rates. All information is presented as of June 30, 2019.2020.

While the measures presented in the table above are not a prediction of future NII or EVE valuations, they do suggest that if all other variables remained constant, immediate increases in interest rates at all points on the yield curve may produce higher NII in the short term. Other important factors that

impact the levels of NII are balance sheet size and mix, interest rate spreads, the slope of the yield curve, the speed of interest rates changes, and management actions taken in response to the preceding conditions.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and measures intended to prevent its spread could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and such effects will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict.

Global health concerns relating to the COVID-19 outbreak and related government actions taken to reduce the spread of the virus have been weighing on the macroeconomic environment, and the outbreak has significantly increased economic uncertainty and reduced economic activity. The outbreak has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place or total lock-down orders and business limitations and shutdowns. Such measures have significantly contributed to elevated unemployment and negatively impacted consumer and business spending. The United States government has taken steps to attempt to mitigate some of the more severe anticipated economic effects of the virus, including the passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or the CARES Act, but there can be no assurance that such steps will be effective or achieve their desired results in a timely fashion.

The outbreak has adversely impacted and is likely to further adversely impact our workforce and operations and the operations of our borrowers, customers and business partners. In particular, we may experience financial losses due to a number of factors impacting us or our borrowers, customers or business partners, including but not limited to:

demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income;
if the economy is unable to substantially reopen, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased charges and reduced income;
collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase;
our allowance for loan losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties beyond forbearance periods, which will adversely affect our net income;
the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us;
as the result of the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and reducing net income;
a prolonged weakness in economic conditions resulting in a reduction of future projected earnings could result in our recording a valuation allowance against our current outstanding deferred tax assets;

53

Table of Contents

we rely on third-party vendors for certain services and the unavailability of a critical service (such as information technology network and data processing services) due to the COVID-19 outbreak could have an adverse effect on us;
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs;
operational failures due to changes in our normal business practices necessitated by the outbreak and related governmental actions; and
increased cyber and payment fraud risk, as cybercriminals attempt to profit from the disruption, given increased online and remote activity.

Additionally, our future success and profitability substantially depends on the management skills of our executive officers and directors, many of whom have held officer and director positions with us for many years. The unanticipated loss or unavailability of key employees due to the outbreak could harm our ability to operate our business or execute our business strategy. We may not be successful in finding and integrating suitable successors in the event of key employee loss or unavailability.

Any one or a combination of these factors could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects. These factors may remain prevalent for a significant period of time and may continue to adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices (including restricting employee travel and developing work-from-home and social distancing plans for our employees), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus or will otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities.

The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, we may continue to experience materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of the virus’s global economic impact, including the availability of credit, adverse impacts on our liquidity and any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the outbreak is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of the impacts on our business, our operations or the global economy as a whole. However, the effects could have a material impact on our results of operations and heighten many of our known risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
