Shore Bancshares, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and 20162020

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Shore Bancshares, Inc. and its subsidiariessubsidiary with all significant intercompany transactions eliminated. The consolidated financial statements conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to prevailing practices within the banking industry. The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management all adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position at September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, the consolidated results of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and 2016, and2020, changes in stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 and cash flows for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and 2016,2020, have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The amounts as of December 31, 20162020 were derived from the 20162020 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report of Shore Bancshares, Inc. on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2020. For purposes of comparability, certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to amounts previously reported to conform with the current period presentation.

 

When used in these notes, the term “the Company” refers to Shore Bancshares, Inc. and, unless the context requires otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

Reclassification

During the period of September 30, 2017, management made an immaterial reclassification adjustment to goodwill and deferred income taxes for a transaction involving a stock-based acquisition of an insurance entity which occurred in 2007. This reclassification was deemed an immaterial correction of an error as it had no impact on total assets or earnings per share previously reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Income for any period but was necessary in order to properly reflect goodwill and deferred income taxes on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.   

Effective July 1, 2016, the Company’s two bank subsidiaries, The Talbot Bank of Easton Maryland and CNB were consolidated into one bank known as Shore United Bank. In these notes to the consolidated financial statements and the management discussion and analysis section, the term “the Bank” refers tosubsidiary, Shore United Bank unless(the “Bank”).

Risks and Uncertainties

Since the context requires stipulating resultsnovel coronavirus ("COVID-19") was declared a pandemic in March 2020, COVID-19 has significantly affected our communities, customers, and operations.  COVID-19 continues to have a significant impact in 2021, however, the  extent of its effects are dependent upon multiple factors, such as the extent of distribution and efficacy of vaccines, COVID-19 variants, pandemic-related restrictions, and government response, among others.  As a result, the ultimate effects of COVID-19 over the longer term cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.  Risks and uncertainties arising from the pandemic remain, primarily concerning the ability of customers to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company as well as potential operational disruptions and the ability of the individual banks beforeCompany to generate demand for its products and services. Accordingly, estimates used in the consolidation occurred.preparation of our financial statements may be subject to significant adjustments in future periods.

Recent Accounting Standards and Other Authoritative Guidance

ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers2016-13 – In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 606)326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. amendment requires entities  The amendments in this ASU, among other things, require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to recognize revenuebetter inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to depict the transfer of promised goods or servicesthose techniques will change to customers in amounts that reflect the considerationfull amount of expected credit losses. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. At the FASB’s October 16, 2019 meeting, the Board affirmed its decision to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Deferral of the Effective Date” ASU 2015-14 amendments deferamend the effective date of Update 2014-09this ASU for all entities by one year.many companies.   Public business entities certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should applythat are SEC filers, excluding those meeting the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annualsmaller reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only ascompany definition, will retain the initial required implementation date of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. ASU 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations” – ASU 2016-08 amendments are intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606):  Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” – ASU 2016-10 amendments clarify that contractual provisions that, explicitly or implicitly, require an entity to transfer control of additional goods or services to a customer should be distinguished from contractual provisions that, explicitly or implicitly, define the attributes of a single promised license. Attributes of a promised license define the scope of a customer’s right to use or right to access an entity’s intellectual property and, therefore, do not define whether the entity satisfies its performance obligation at a point in time or over time and do not create an obligation for the entity to transfer any additional rights to use or access its intellectual property. Revenues from services provided by financial institutions that could be impacted by the new guidance includes credit card arrangements, trust and custody services and administration services for customer deposits accounts (e.g., ATM and wire transfer transactions). This update will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company’s primary sources of revenue are derived from interest and dividends earned on loans, investment securities, and2019.  All other financial instruments that are not within the scope of ASU 2014-09. The Company’s revenue recognition pattern for revenue streams within the scope of ASU 2014-09, including but not limited to service charges on deposit accounts and gains/losses on the sale of OREO, is not expected to change significantly from current practice. The standard permits the use of either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. The Company is currently planning to use the modified retrospective transition method which requires

application of ASU 2014-09 to uncompleted contracts at the date of adoption. Periods prior to the date of adoption are not retrospectively revised, but a cumulative effect of adoption is recognized for the impact of the ASU on uncompleted contracts at the date of adoption.

ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This ASU, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, toentities will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost onapply the balance sheet, (iv) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, (v) requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements and (vii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for us on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” This ASU stipulates that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. All leases create an asset and a liability for the lessee in accordance with FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statement , and, therefore, recognition of those lease assets and lease liabilities represents an improvement over previous GAAP, which did not require lease assets and lease liabilities to be recognized for most leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. When measuring assets and liabilities arising from a lease, a lessee (and a lessor) should include payments to be made in optional periods only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease. Similarly, optional payments to purchase the underlying asset should be included in the measurement of lease assets and lease liabilities only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that purchase option. In addition, also consistent with the previous leases guidance a lessee (and a lessor) should exclude most variable lease payments in measuring lease assets and lease liabilities, other than those that depend on an index or a rate or are in substance fixed payments. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted upon issuance. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Leases and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. While the Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, we expect an increase to the Consolidated Balance Sheets for right-of-use assets and interest expense of the lease liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Income, for arrangements previously accounted for as operating leases.

ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This ASU simplifies the treatment and accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. Upon adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, the Company made an accounting policy election to recognize forfeitures of stock-based awards as they occur. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The amendments in this ASU will replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. The amendments broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The use of forecasted information incorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected credit losses, which will be more decision useful to users of the financial statements. It is not expected that an entity will need to create an economic forecast over the entire contractual life of long-dated financial assets. Therefore, the amendments will allow an entity to revert to historical loss information that is reflective of the contractual term (considering the effect of prepayments) for periods that are beyond the time frame for which the entity is able to develop reasonable and supportable forecasts. The amendments retain many of the disclosure amendments in Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, updated to reflect the change from an incurred loss methodology to an expected credit loss methodology. Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP. However, the amendments require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than a write-down. For public entities that are U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filers, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. All entities may adopt the amendments earlier

Northwest Bank Branch Acquisition

On May 19, 2017,In January 2020, the Bank purchased three branches from Northwest Bank (“NWBI”) located in Arbutus, Elkridge,FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Owings Mills, Maryland. Pursuant toJoint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) – Clarifying the transaction, the Bank acquired $122.9 million in loansInteractions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and $212.5 million in deposits, as well as the branch premises and equipment. In connection with its purchaseTopic 815.”  The ASU is based on a consensus of the branches from Northwest, the Bank received a cash payment from Northwest of $64.0 million, which was net of a premium paid on deposits of $17.2 million. This acquisition provides the Bank with the opportunityEmerging Issues Task Force and is expected to enhance its footprint in Maryland by extending its branch network across the Eastern Shore to the greater Baltimore area communities of Elkridge, Owings Mills and Arbutus.

The Company has accounted for the branch purchases under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC topic 805, “Business Combinations,” whereby the acquired assets and liabilities were recorded by the Bank at their estimated fair values as of their acquisition date.

The acquired assets and assumed liabilities of the NWBI branches were measured at estimated fair value. Management made significant estimates and exercised significant judgementincrease comparability in accounting for these transactions.  ASU 2016-01 made targeted improvements to accounting for financial instruments, including providing an entity the acquisitionability to measure certain equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the NWBI branches.

The Company recorded all loans acquired at the estimated fair value on the purchase date with no carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. The Company only acquired loans which were deemed to be performing loans with no signs of credit deterioration.

The Company determined the net discounted value of cash flows on approximately 864 performing loans totaling $125.1 million. The valuation took into consideration the loans’ underlying characteristics, including account types, remaining terms, annual interest rates, interest types, past delinquencies, timing of principal and interest payments, current market rates, loan-to-value ratios, loss exposures, and remaining balances. These performing loans were segregated into pools based on loan and payment type. The effect of this fair valuation process was a net accretable discount adjustment of $2.3 million at acquisition.

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of potential common stock equivalents (stock-based awards).

All of the securities with unrealized losses in the portfolio have modest duration risk, low credit risk, and minimal losses when compared to total amortized cost. The unrealized losses on debt securities that exist are the result of market changes in interest rates since original purchase. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases,basis, which may be at maturity for debt securities, the Company considers the unrealized losses to be temporary.

There were 18 available-for-sale securities and 19 held-to-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2021.

Loans are stated at their principal amount outstanding net of any purchase premiums,premiums/discounts, deferred fees and costs. Loans included deferred fees, net of costs, of $751 thousand and discounts on acquired loans of $677 thousand at March 31, 2021. Loans included deferred costs, net of deferred fees, of $632$622 thousand and discounts on acquired loans of $2.0 million at September 30, 2017. Loans included deferred costs, net of deferred fees, of $509$754 thousand at December 31, 2016.2020. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, included in total loans were $44.6 million and $52.3 million in loans, respectively, acquired as part of the NWBI branch acquisition in 2017. Interest income on loans is accrued at the contractual rate based on the principal amount outstanding. feesFees charged and costs capitalized for originating loans are being amortized substantially on the interest method over the term of the loan. A loan is placed on nonaccrual (i.e., interest income is no longer accrued) when it is specifically determined to be impaired or when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Any unpaid interest previously accrued on those loans is reversed from income.

Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured, in which case interest is recognized on a cash basis. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

A loan is considered impaired if it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest payments according to the loan’s contractual terms.terms when due. An impaired loan may show deficiencies in the borrower’s overall financial condition, payment history, support available from financial guarantors and/or the fair market value of collateral. The impairment of a loan is measured at the present value of expected future cash flows using the loan’s effective interest rate, or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Generally, the Company measures impairment on such loans by reference to the fair value of the collateral. Once the amount of impairment has been determined, the uncollectible portion is charged off. IncomeLoan payments received on nonaccrual impaired loans isare generally applied to the outstanding principal balance. In certain circumstances, income may be recognized on a cash basis, and payments are first applied against the principal balance outstanding (i.e., placing impaired loans on nonaccrual status).basis. Generally, interest income is not recognized on impaired loans unless the likelihood of further loss is remote. The allowance for credit losses may include specific reserves related to impaired loans. Specific reserves remain until charge offs are made. Impaired loans do not include groups of smaller balance homogenous loans such as residential mortgage and consumer installment loans that are evaluated collectively for impairment. Reserves for probable credit losses related to these loans are based on historical loss ratios and are included in the formula portion of the allowance for credit losses. See additional discussion under the caption “Critical Accounting Policies” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

A loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”)TDR if a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and a creditor has granted a concession. Concessions may include interest rate reductions or below market interest rates, principal forgiveness, restructuring amortization schedules and other actions intended to minimize potential losses. Loans are identified to be restructured when signs of impairment arise such as borrower interest rate reduction request, slowness to pay, or when an inability to repay becomes evident. The terms being offered are evaluated to determine if they are more liberal than those that would be indicated by policy or industry standards for similar, untroubled credits. In those situations where the terms or the interest rates are considered to be more favorable than industry standards or the Bank’s current underwriting guidelines of the Company’s banking subsidiary, Shore United Bank (the “Bank”), the loan is classified as a TDR. All loans designated as TDRs are considered impaired loans and may be on either accrual or nonaccrual status. In instances where the loan has been placed on nonaccrual status, six consecutive months of timely payments are required prior to returning the loan to accrual status.

Table of Contents

All loans classified as TDRs which are restructured and accrue interest under revised terms require a full and comprehensive review of the borrower’s financial condition, capacity for repayment, realistic assessment of collateral values, and the assessment of risk entered into any workout agreement. Current financial information on the borrower, guarantor, and underlying collateral is analyzed to determine if it supports the ultimate collection of principal and interest. For commercial loans, the cash flows are analyzed, both for the underlying project and globally. For consumer loans, updated salary, credit history and cash flow information is obtained. Current market conditions are also considered. Following a full analysis, the determination of the appropriate loan structure is made.

In 2020, the Company began its participation in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). The PPP commenced subsequent to the passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act in March 2020, and was later expanded by the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act of April 2020. The PPP was designed to provide U.S. small businesses with cash-flow assistance during the COVID-19 pandemic through loans that are fully guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (SBA) which may be forgiven upon satisfaction of certain criteria. As of March 31, 2021, the Company held PPP loans with a total outstanding balance of $129.1 million, which is included in the commercial loan segment in the table above. As compensation for originating the loans, the Company received lender processing fees from the SBA, which were deferred, along with the related loan origination costs. These net fees are being accreted to interest income over the remaining contractual lives of the loans. Upon forgiveness of a PPP loan and repayment by the SBA, which may be prior to the loan’s maturity, the remainder of any unrecognized net fees are recognized as interest income. The Company has continued to participate in the newest round of the PPP during the first quarter of 2021.

In the normal course of banking business, risks related to specific loan categories are as follows:

Construction loans – Construction loans generallyare offered primarily to builders and individuals to finance the construction of residential real estate for builders and individuals for single familysingle-family dwellings. In addition, the Bank periodically finances the construction of commercial projects. Credit risk factors include the borrower’s ability to successfully complete the construction on time and within budget, changing market conditions which could affect the value and marketability of projects, changes in the borrower’s ability or willingness to repay the loan and potentially rising interest rates which can impact both the borrower’s ability to repay and the collateral value.

Residential real estate – Residential real estate loans are typically made to consumers and are secured by residential real estate. Credit risk arises from the borrower’s continuing financial stability, which can be adversely impacted by job loss, divorce, illness, or personal bankruptcy, among other factors. Also impacting credit risk would be a shortfall in the value of the residential real estate in relation to the outstanding loan balance in the event of a default or subsequent liquidation of the real estate collateral.

 

Commercial real estate – Commercial real estate loans consist of both loans secured by owner occupied properties and non-owner occupied properties where an established banking relationship exists and involves investment properties for warehouse, retail, and office space with a history of occupancy and cash flow. These loans are subject to adverse changes in the local economy and commercial real estate markets. Credit risk associated with owner occupied properties arises from the borrower’s financial stability and the ability of the borrower and the business to repay the loan. Non-owner occupied properties carry the risk of a tenant’s deteriorating credit strength, lease expirations in soft markets and sustained vacancies which can adversely impact cash flow.

Commercial – Commercial loans are secured or unsecured loans for business purposes. Loans are typically secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and/or other assets of the business. Credit risk arises from the successful operation of the business which may be affected by competition, rising interest rates, regulatory changes and adverse conditions in the local and regional economy.

 

Consumer – Consumer loans include home equity loans and lines, installment loans and personal lines of credit. Credit risk is similar to residential real estate loans above as it is subject to the borrower’s continuing financial stability and the value of the collateral securing the loan.

Management re-evaluated the allowance methodology during the third quarter of 2016, in connection with the consolidation of the two former bank subsidiaries. Prior to consolidation, each bank subsidiary applied a separate allowance methodology based on their respective loan portfolios. The revised methodology incorporates both previous methodologies to align with a consolidated loan portfolio. In addition, beginning in January of 2017, the allowance methodology was expanded to require the allocation of general reserves to pass/watch loans. This change resulted in an increase in allowance for the first quarter of 2017 when compared to the fourth quarter of 2016 of $1.1 million, which was partially offset by a reduction in specific reserves of $850 thousand.

Note 5 – Leases

Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments and are presented at each reporting date as the net present value of the remaining contractual cash flows.  Cash flows are discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate in effect at the commencement date of the lease.  Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and are calculated as the sum of the lease liability and if applicable, prepaid rent, initial direct costs and any incentives received from the lessor.

The Company’s long-term lease agreements are classified as operating leases.  Certain leases offer the option to extend the lease term and the Company has included such extensions in its calculation of the lease liabilities to the extent the options are reasonably certain of being exercised.  The lease agreements do not provide for residual value guarantees and have no restrictions or covenants that would impact dividends or require incurring additional financial obligations.

Note 6 – Goodwill and Other Intangibles

On May 19, 2017, the Bank acquired three branches located in Arbutus, Owings Mills and Elkridge, Maryland from NWBI. The purchase of these branches resulted in core deposit intangibles of $4.0 million and goodwill of $15.3 million.

Note 8 - Subordinated Debt

On August 25, 2020, the Company entered into Subordinated Note Purchase Agreements with certain Purchasers pursuant to which the Company issued and sold $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount with an initial interest rate of 5.375% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due September 1, 2030.

The Company’s deferred tax assets consistCompany plans to use the net proceeds of grossthis offering for general corporate purposes, organic growth and to support the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios. The Notes were structured to qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes and bear an initial interest rate of 5.375% until September 1, 2025, with interest during this period payable semi-annually in arrears. From and including September 1, 2025, to but excluding the maturity date or early redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly to an annual floating rate equal to three-month SOFR, plus 526.5 basis points, with interest during this period payable quarterly in arrears. The Notes are redeemable by the Company at its option, in whole or in part, on or after September 1, 2025. Initial debt issuance costs were $611 thousand. The debt balance of $24.5 million is presented net operating loss carryovers for state tax purposes of $15.7 million that will be used to offset taxable income in future periods. The Company’s state net operating loss carryovers will begin to expire in the year ended Decemberunamortized issuance costs of $540 thousand at March 31, 2026 with limited amounts available through December 31, 2034.  2021.

Note 910 - Stock-Based Compensation

At the 2016 annual meeting, stockholders approved the Shore Bancshares, Inc. 2016 Stock and Incentive Plan (“2016 Equity Plan”), replacing the Shore Bancshares, Inc. 2006 Stock and Incentive Plan (“2006 Equity Plan”), which expired on that date. The Company may issue shares of common stock or grant other equity-based awards pursuant to the 2016 Equity Plan. Stock-based awards granted to date generally are time-based, vest in equal installments on each anniversary of the grant date and range over a one-one- to five-year period of time, and, in the case of stock options, expire 10 years from the grant date. As part of the 2016 Equity Plan, a performance equity incentive award program, known as the “Long-term incentive plan” allows participating officers of the Company to earn incentive awards of performance share/restricted stock units if certain pre-determined targets are achieved at the end of a three-year performance cycle. Stock-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair value is recognized ratably over the requisite service period for all awards and reflects forfeitures as they occur. The 2016 Equity Plan originally reserved 750,000 shares of common stock for grant, and 709,873583,831 shares remained available for grant at September 30, 2017.

Restricted stock units (RSUs) are similar to restricted stock, except the recipient does not receive the stock immediately, but instead receives it upon the terms and conditionsTable of the Company’s long-term incentive plans which are subject to performance milestones achieved at the end of a three-year period.  Each RSU cliff vests at the end of the three-year period and entitles the recipient to receive one share of common stock on a specified issuance date.  The recipient does not have any stockholder rights, including voting rights, with respect to the shares underlying awarded RSUs until the recipient becomes the holder of those shares.

During 2017, the Company entered into a long-term incentive program agreement with officers of the Company and its subsidiaries to award RSUs based on a performance metric to be achieved as of December 31, 2019. These awards will cliff vest on this date, in which the final number of common shares to be issued will be determined. The range of RSUs which could potentially be awarded at the end of the performance cycle is between 12,703 shares and 50,830 shares, assuming a certain performance metric is met. The table below presents management’s evaluation of the probable number of common stock awards to be issued at the end of the performance cycle.

During 2016, the Company entered into a long-term incentive program agreement with officers of the Company and its subsidiaries to award RSUs based on a performance metric to be achieved as of December 31, 2018. These awards will cliff vest on this date, in which the final number of common shares to be issued will be determined. The range of RSUs which could potentially be awarded at the end of the performance cycle is between 12,214 shares and 48,871 shares, assuming a certain performance metric is met. In addition, two members of the long-term incentive plan from 2015 forfeited their RSUs due to leaving the Company before the end of the vesting period. The table below presents management’s evaluation of the probable number of common stock awards to be issued at the end of the performance cycle.

During 2015, the Company entered into a long-term incentive program agreement with officers of the Company and its subsidiaries to award RSUs based on performance metrics to be achieved as of December 31, 2017. These awards will cliff vest on this date, in which the final number of common shares to be issued will be determined. The range of RSUs which could potentially be awarded at the end of the performance cycle is between 10,953 shares and 43,821 shares, assuming certain performance metrics are met.

The weighted average fair value ofThere were 0 stock options granted during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2016 was $10.99and $5.03, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of options using the Black-Scholes valuation model with weighted average assumptions for dividend yield, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected lives (in years). The expected dividend yield is calculated by dividing the total expected annual dividend payout by the average stock price. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the underlying securities. The risk-free interest rate is based on the Federal Reserve Bank’s constant maturities daily interest rate in effect at grant date. The expected contract life of the options represents the period of time that the Company expects the awards to be outstanding based on historical experience with similar awards.

Note 1112 – Fair Value Measurements

Accounting guidance under GAAP defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This accounting guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as

26

impaired loans, loans held for sale and other real estate owned (foreclosed assets). These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

Under fair value accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are grouped 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 their fair values. These hierarchy levels are:

Level 1 inputs – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs – Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

Below is a discussion on the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Investment Securities Available for Sale

Fair value measurement for investment securities available for sale is based on quoted prices from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include present value of future cash flows, prepayment assumptions, credit loss assumptions and other factors. The Company classifies its investments in U.S. Treasury securities, if any, as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy, and it classifies its investments in U.S. Government agencies securities and mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government sponsored entities as Level 2.

Equity Securities

31


Fair value measurement for equity securities is based on quoted market prices retrieved by the Company via on-line resources. Although these securities have readily available fair market values, the Company determined that they should be classified as level 2 investments in the fair value hierarchy due to not being considered traded in a highly active market.

The tables below present the recorded amount of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2016. No2020. NaN assets were transferred from one hierarchy level to another during the first ninethree months of 20172021 or 2016.2020.

Below is a discussion on the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Impaired Loans

Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.agreement when due. Loan impairment is measured using the present value of expected cash flows, the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral (less selling costs) if the loans are collateral dependent and these are considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable. The value of business equipment, inventory and accounts receivable, discounted on management’s review and analysis. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business.

Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the factors identified above. Valuation techniques are consistent with those techniques applied in prior periods.

Other Real Estate Owned (Foreclosed Assets)

Foreclosed assets are adjusted for fair value upon transfer of loans to foreclosed assets.assets establishing a new cost basis. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value andor fair value. The estimated fair value for foreclosed assets included in Level 3 are determined by independent market based appraisals and other available market information, less costs to sell, that may be reduced further based on market expectations or an executed sales agreement. If the fair value of the collateral deteriorates subsequent to the initial recognition, the Company records the foreclosed asset as a non-recurring Level 3 adjustment. Valuation techniques are consistent with those techniques applied in prior periods.

Cash equivalents include interest-bearing deposits with other banks and federal funds sold. For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment Securities Held to Maturity

For all investments in debt securities, fair values are based on quoted prices. If a quoted price is not available, fair

Other loans, including variable rate loans, are adjusted for differences in loan characteristics.

Restricted Securities

The restricted security category is comprised of FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stock. These stocks are classified as restricted securities because their ownership is restricted to certain types of entities and they lack a market. When the FHLB or Federal Reserve Bank repurchases stock, they repurchase at the stock’s book value. Therefore, the carrying amounts of restricted securities approximate fair value.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The carrying value of bank owned life insurance approximates fair value. The Company records these policies at their cash surrender value, which is estimated using information provided by insurance carriers.

Deposits and Short-Term Borrowings

The fair values of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits are the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. Therelative fair value of fixed-maturity certificatesthe instruments.

29

The carrying amount of short-term borrowings is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair values of securities sold under agreements to repurchase (included in short-term borrowings)amounts and long-term debt are estimated using the rates offered for similar borrowings.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit

The majority of the Company’s commitments to grant loans and standby letters of credit are written to carry current market interest rates if converted to loans. In general, commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are not assignable by the Company or the borrower, so they generally have value only to the Company and the borrower. Therefore, it is impractical to assign any value to these commitments.

Note 1213 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

In the normal course of business, to meet the financial needs of its customers, the Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Letters of credit and other commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because many of the letters of credit and commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The following table provides information on commitments outstanding at September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2016.2020.

Note 14 – Revenue Recognition

Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest revenue streams such as trust and asset management income, deposit related fees, interchange fees and merchant income. Noninterest revenue streams in-scope of Topic 606 are discussed below.

30

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

Service charges on deposit accounts consist of 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 at the end of the month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

Note 13 – Segment Reporting

Trust and Investment Fee Income

Trust and investment fee income are primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and other customer assets. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied over time and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon the month-end market value of the assets under management and the applicable fee rate. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. The Company operates two primary business segments: Community Bankingdoes not earn performance-based incentives.

The Company’s performance obligation for these transactional-based services is generally satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time (i.e., as incurred). Payment is received shortly after services are rendered.

Other Noninterest Income

Other noninterest income consists of: fees, exchange, other service charges, safety deposit box rental fees, and other miscellaneous revenue streams.  Fees and other service charges are primarily comprised of debit and credit card income, ATM fees, merchant services income, and other service charges. Debit and credit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa. 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 securedservices. The Company’s performance obligation for fees, exchange, and unsecured personal lines of credit. Small business lending includes commercial mortgages, real estate development loans, equipmentother service charges are largely satisfied, and operating loans, as well as secured and unsecured lines of credit, credit cards, accounts receivable financing arrangements, and merchant card services.

Contract Balances

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, or standard month-end revenue accruals such as asset management fees based on month-end market values. 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 2017March 31, 2021, and 2016.December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any significant contract balances.

Note 15 – Proposed Merger

On March 3, 2021, the Company and Severn Bancorp, Inc. (“Severn”) entered into a definitive agreement for the Company to acquire the Maryland-based Severn.

This transaction will create the third largest community bank headquartered in Maryland. One of the primary reasons for the proposed acquisition of Severn was the ability to access and deploy excess capital and deposits into a high growth market, while also enhancing scale to drive efficiency and profitability. Additionally, this transaction will create a competitive position in the Columbia/Baltimore/Towson MSA, while filling in our current market footprint.  

Under the terms of the agreement, Severn shareholders will receive 0.6207 shares of Shore common stock and $1.59 in cash for each share of Severn common stock. Upon closing, Shore shareholders will own approximately 59.6% of the combined Company and Severn will own approximately 40.4% of the combined Company. The transaction is still subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and shareholder approval from Shore and Severn shareholders. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021.

As of December 31, 2020, Severn had more than $950 million in assets and operated 7 full-service community banking offices throughout Anne Arundel County, Maryland.

Forward-Looking Information

PortionsThis Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “projection,” “forecast,” “goal,” “target,” “would,” “aim” and “outlook,” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry and management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. The inclusion of these forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that such expectations, estimates and projections will be achieved. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict their occurrence. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each risk and uncertainty on our business or the extent to which any risk or uncertainty, or combination of risks and uncertainties, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Further, given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated and when and how the economy may be fully reopened. As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations: the 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 increase if borrowers experience financial difficulties, 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’s target federal funds rate to near 0%, 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; our cybersecurity risks are increased as the result of an increase in the number of employees working remotely; and FDIC premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs.

If one or more of the factors affecting our forward-looking information and statements proves incorrect, then our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, forward-looking information and statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain forward-lookingand other reports and registration statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical in nature, including statements that include the words “anticipate”, “estimate”, “should”, “expect”, “believe”, “intend”, and similar expressions, are expressions about our confidence, policies, and strategies, the adequacy of capital levels, and liquidity and are not guarantees of future performance. Such forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties, including economic conditions, competition in the geographic and business areas in which we operate, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, legislation, and governmental regulation. These risks and uncertainties are described in detail in the section of the periodic reports that Shore Bancshares, Inc. filesfiled by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”(“SEC”) entitled. For information on the factors that could cause actual results to differ from the expectations stated in the forward- looking statements, see “Risk Factors” (seeunder Part I, Item 1A of Part IIour 2020 Form 10-K and other reports as filed with the SEC.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this report, and Item 1A of Part I of the Annual Report of Shore Bancshares, Inc. on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report”)). Actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking statements, and we assume nodo not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statements at any timestatement, whether because of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The outbreak of COVID-19 has led to adverse impacts on economic conditions and created uncertainty in financial markets. Correspondingly, in early March 2020, the Company began preparing for potential disruptions and government limitations of activity in the markets in which we serve. Our team activated our Business Continuity Program and was able to quickly execute on multiple initiatives to adjust our operations to protect the health and safety of our employees and clients. Since the beginning of the crisis, we have been in close contact with our clients, assessing the level of impact on their businesses, and providing relief programs according to each client’s specific situation and qualifications. We have also enhanced awareness of digital banking offerings, expanded services at our drive through locations, and allowed customers to make appointments in the branch for critical services. The Company’s branches remain open and have taken steps to comply with various government directives regarding “social distancing,” as well as, enhanced cleaning and disinfecting of all surface areas to protect its clients and employees.

Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program

We established our process for participating in the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) that enabled our clients to utilize this valuable resource beginning in April 2020. Loans under the PPP are designed to provide assistance for small businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic to help meet the costs associated with payroll, mortgage interest, rent and utilities. These loans are guaranteed by the SBA and forgiveness of the loans, by the SBA, is granted to the borrower if the borrower uses at least 60% of the funds to cover payroll costs and benefits. Forgiveness is also based on the small business maintaining or quickly rehiring their employees and maintaining salary levels for their employees. Loans under the PPP do not require any collateral or personal guarantees, as such, these loans are included in the Company’s commercial loans segment. The first round of PPP lending resulted in 1,488 loans for $126.7 million, of which 387 loans have been forgiven for $52.2 million as of March 31, 2021. The second round of PPP lending which began in 2021, resulted in 660 loans for $54.8 million. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had 1,761 PPP loans totaling $129.1 million that were outstanding, inclusive of loans issued during both the first and second rounds of the PPP. This has allowed us to further strengthen and deepen our client relationships, while positively impacting thousands of individuals. We are also closely monitoring the credit quality of the loan portfolio and monitor lines of credit draws for deviation from normal activity to improve loan performance and reduce credit risk.

Short-term Modifications for Borrowers

In keeping with regulatory guidance to work with borrowers during this unprecedented situation and as outlined in Section 4013 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), the Company is providing modifications

34

where appropriate, including interest only payments or payment deferrals for clients that could be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Section 4013 of the CARES Act addressed COVID-19 related modifications and specified that such modifications made on loans that were current as of December 31, 2019 are not TDRs. In accordance with interagency guidance issued in April 2020, short-term modifications made to borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental shutdown orders, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers and extensions of repayment terms, do not need to be identified as TDRs if the loans were current at the time a modification plan was implemented. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company had executed principal and/or interest deferrals on outstanding loan balances of $221.1 million, of which only $16.1 million, or 1.10% of the total portfolio remained on deferral as of March 31, 2021.

Liquidity

We are vigilantly monitoring our liquidity position on an ongoing basis. The Company has several available sources of on and off-balance sheet liquidity. Currently, the Company has not needed to tap into these available liquidity sources due to payment deferrals by customers, funding of PPP loans, or organic loan growth. Additional discussion on our liquidity as of the report date is reflected in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of management’s discussion and analysis.

Share Repurchases

At the present time all share repurchases have been suspended due to the current status of our merger with Severn. Once the merger is consummated, the Company intends to resume its current share buyback program in which $546 thousand remains available. The Board of directors and management will re-evaluate the need for an additional stock repurchase program once the current plan is exhausted or expires.

Dividends and Capital

We currently expect to maintain our quarterly cash dividend based on our strong capital position. At March 31, 2021, the Bank exceeded all the capital requirements to which it was subject, and based on the most recent notification from its primary federal regulator is considered to be well-capitalized. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes would change the Bank’s classification. We are closely monitoring our capital position and are taking appropriate steps to ensure our level of capital remains strong. Our capital, while significant, may deteriorate in future periods due to the impact of the pandemic and limit our ability to pay dividends.

35

Critical Accounting Policies

OurThe Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information containedGAAP and follow general practices within the industries in which it operates. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that isand accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on measuresinformation available as of the date of the financial effectsstatements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of transactionsestimates, assumptions, and eventsjudgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that have already occurred. A varietycould be materially different than originally reported.

The most significant accounting policies that the Company follows are presented in Note 1 of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability.2020 Annual Report. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the notes to the financial statements and in this discussion, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and estimates underlying those amounts, management has determined that the accounting policies with respect to the allowance for credit losses and goodwill and other intangible assets deferred tax assets, and fair value are critical accounting policies. These policies are considered critical because they relate to accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and, as such, could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses is anrepresents management’s estimate of thecredit losses that may be sustainedinherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) Topic 450, “ Contingencies ”,portfolio as of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), which requires that losses be accrued when they are probablebalance sheet date. Determining the amount of occurring and estimable; and (ii) ASC Topic 310, “ Receivables ”, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the loan balance and the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market. Management uses many factors to estimate the inherent loss that may be present in our loan portfolio, including economic conditions and trends, the value and adequacy of collateral, the volume and mix of the loan portfolio, and our internal loan processes. Actual losses could differ significantly from management’s estimates. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another. Although the economics of transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact the transactions could change.

Three basic components comprise our allowance for credit losses: (i) the specific allowance; (ii) the formula allowance; and (iii) the unallocated allowance. Each component is determined based on estimates that can and do change when the actual events occur. The specific allowance is established against impaired loans (i.e., nonaccrual loans and troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”)) based on our assessment of the losses that may be associated with the individual loans. The specific allowance remains until charge-offs are made. An impaired loan may show deficiencies in the borrower’s overall financial condition, payment history, support available from financial guarantors and/or the fair market value of collateral. The formula allowance is used to estimate the loss on internally risk-rated loans, exclusive of those identified as impaired. Loans are grouped by type (construction, residential real estate, commercial real estate, commercial or consumer). Each loan type is assigned allowance factors based on management’s estimate of the risk, complexity and size of individual loans within a particular category. Loans identified as special mention, substandard, and doubtful are adversely rated. These loans are assigned higher allowance factors than favorably rated loans due to management’s concerns regarding collectability or management’s knowledge of particular elements regarding the borrower. The unallocated allowance captures losses that have impacted the portfolio but have yet to be recognized in either the specific or formula allowance.

Management has significant discretion in making the adjustments inherent in the determination of the provision and allowance for credit losses including in connection with the valuation of collateral, the estimation ofis considered a borrower’s prospects of repayment,critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the establishmentuse of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of similar loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions and other factors, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the consolidated balance sheets. Note 1 to the 2020 Annual Report describes the methodology used to determine the allowance for credit losses. A discussion of the allowance determination and factors in the formula allowance and unallocated allowance components of the allowance. The establishment of allowance factors is a continuing exercise, based on management’s ongoing assessment of the totality of all factors, including, but not limited to, delinquencies, loss history, trends in volume and terms of loans, effects ofdriving changes in lending policy, the experience and depth of management, national and local economic trends, concentrations of credit, the quality of the loan review system and the effect of external factors such as competition and regulatory requirements, and their impact on the portfolio. Allowance factors may change from period to period, resulting in an increase or decrease in the amount of the provision or allowance based on the same volume and classification of loans. Changes in allowance factors will have a direct impact on the amount of the provision, and a corresponding effect on net income. Errors in management’s perception and assessment of these factors and their impact on the portfolio could resultfor credit losses is included in the allowance not being adequate to cover losses in the portfolio,Provision for Credit Losses and may result in additional provisions or charge-offs.

Goodwill and Other Intangible AssetsAllowance for Credit Losses sections below.

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that also lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights or because the asset is capable of being sold or exchanged either on its own or in combination with a related contract, asset or liability. Goodwill and other intangible assets are required to be recorded at fair value. Determining fair value is subjective, requiring the use of estimates, assumptions and management judgment. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives areis tested at least annually for impairment, usually during the thirdfourth quarter, or on an interim basis if circumstances dictate. Intangible assets that have finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and also are subject to impairment testing. Impairment testing requires a qualitative assessment or that the fair value of each of the Company’s reporting units be compared to the carrying amount of its net assets, including goodwill. The Company’s reporting units were identified based on an analysis of each of its individual operating segments (i.e., the Bank and Insurance Subsidiaries). If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than book value, an expense may be required to write down the related goodwill or purchased intangibles to record an impairment loss.

Fair Value

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with the measurements made on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Significant financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are investment securities. Impaired loans and other real estate owned are significant financial instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, As of March 31, 2021, the Company is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, reducing subjectivity.

OVERVIEW

The Company reported net income of $3.4$4.0 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 2017,2021, or diluted income per common share of $0.27,$0.34, compared to net income of $2.4$3.1 million, or diluted income per common share of $0.19,$0.25, for the thirdfirst quarter of 2016.2020. For the secondfourth quarter of 2017,2020, the Company reported net income of $2.4$3.9 million, or diluted income per common share of $0.19.$0.32. When comparing net income for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 to the thirdfirst quarter of 2016,2020, the primary reasons for improved net income wereincrease was due to increases in net interest income of $2.7$1.3 million and noninterest income of $418 thousand and a reduction in provision for credit losses of $260$205 thousand, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expensesexpense of $1.5 million.$150 thousand. When comparing net income for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 to the secondfourth quarter of 2017,2020, the higher net incomeincrease was primarily attributabledue to increasesa decrease in net interest income of $1.4 million, noninterest income of $246 thousand, and a reduction inthe provision for credit losses of $629$625 thousand, partially offset by an increasea decrease in noninterest expenses of $521 thousand. These increases were a direct result of operating the three branches acquired from NWBI for a full quarter. The reduction in provision for credit losses was due to a large charge-off in the second quarter of 2017 which was the result of one borrowing relationship. 

For the first nine months of 2017, the Company reported net income of $8.6 million, or diluted income per common share of $0.67, compared to net income of $7.1 million, or diluted income per common share of $0.56, for the first nine months of 2016. Earnings improved due to increases in net interest income of $4.9 million and noninterest income of $822 thousand, partially offset by increases in provision for credit losses of $316 thousand and noninterest expenses of $2.6 million, of which $977 thousand related to acquisition costs from the branch purchase.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

Tax-equivalent net interest income is net interest income adjusted for the tax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments. As shown in the table below, tax-equivalent net interest income was $12.4$13.8 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 2017

36

2021 and $9.7$12.6 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 2016.2020. Tax-equivalent net interest income was $11.0$13.8 million for the secondfourth quarter of 2017.2020. The increase in net interest income when comparing the first quarter of 2021 to the first quarter of 2020, was the result of higher interest and fees on loans and income from investment securities, coupled with a decrease in interest expense. Net interest income remained flat for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 when compared to the thirdfourth quarter of 2016 was primarily2020 due to an increase inless interest income of $2.7 million, or 26.1%, partiallyon loans, offset by an increase in interest expense of $33 thousand, or 6.1%. The increase in net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2017 was primarily due to an increase in interest income of $1.5 million, or 12.9%, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $62 thousand, or 11.3%.lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits. Net interest margin is tax-equivalent net interest income (annualized) divided by average earning assets. The net interest margin increased infor the thirdfirst quarter of 2017 to 3.79%2021 was 3.00%, which was a decrease of 48bps when compared to both3.48% for the thirdfirst quarter of 20162020 and a decrease of 8bps when compared to 3.08% for the fourth quarter of 2020. The decline in net interest margin in the first quarter of 2021 when compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 and the secondfirst quarter of 20172020, was significantly impacted by excess liquidity of 3.54% and 3.73%, respectively.approximately $100 million, which has yet to be fully invested. Without this excess liquidity the margin for the first quarter of 2021 would have been 3.17%.

Interest Income

On a tax-equivalent basis, interest income increased $2.7 million,$658 thousand, or 26.1%4.5%, for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 when compared to the thirdfirst quarter of 2016.2020. The increase was primarily due to a $2.4 million, or 24.9%,the result of higher interest and fees on loans and income from investment securities. The primary driver for the increase in interest income and fees on loans. This increaseloans was due tothe result of higher average volume of loans of $187 million, which included PPP lending. The average balance of investment securities increased $98.4 million, providing $212 thousand of additional income, despite a $197.6 million, or 23.6% increasedecrease in the average balanceyield of loans which primarily resulted from the purchase of $122.9 million in loans from NWBI in the second quarter of 2017 and organic loan growth of $70.2 million. The average yield on loans increased 4 bps, which increased from 4.50% to 4.54%, primarily due to the higher yielding loan portfolio acquired from NWBI relative to the Bank’s legacy portfolio. In addition, interest and dividends on taxable investment securities increased $280 thousand, or 37.1%, during the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period last year, primarily the result of a $28.4 million, or 14.9% increase in the average balance of taxable investment securities which was partially funded by the excess cash received from the branch purchase.

On a tax-equivalent basis, interest income increased $1.5 million,decreased $148 thousand, or 12.9%1.0%, for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 when compared to the secondfourth quarter of 2017.2020. The increasedecrease in interest and fees on loans was primarily due to loan interest recoveries from problem assets experienced in the fourth quarter of 2020, which was absent in the first quarter of 2021, and resulted in a $1.3 million, or 12.7%, increase in interest income and fees on loans. This increase was due to a $81.5 million, or 8.6% increase2bps decline in the average balance of loans due to the full quarter impact of the loans acquired from NWBI. The average yield on loans increased 12 bps, which increased from 4.42% to 4.54%. In addition, interest and dividends on taxable investment securities increased $97 thousand, or 104%, during the third quarter of 2017 compared to the linked quarter, primarily the result of a $20.5 million, or 10.4% increase in the average balance of taxable investment securities.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $33decreased $624 thousand, or 5.7%28.8%, when comparing the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 to the thirdfirst quarter of 2016.2020. The increasedecrease in interest expense from the first quarter of 2020 was due to an increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing deposits of $150.5 million, or 20.3%, primarily thea result of the acquisition of interest-bearing deposits from NWBI amounting to $177.9 milliondecrease in the second quarter of 2017, which had a balance of $186.0 million at September 30, 2017. Despite the significant increase in average interest-bearing deposits, the rates paid on these deposits declined 4 bps. The average balance on noninterest-bearing deposits increased $75.4 million, or 30.8%, and the average balance on short-term borrowings decreased $4.8 million, or 67.9%, all of which resulted in a lower cost of funding for the third quarter of 2017 when compared to the third quarter of 2016.

Interest expense increased $62 thousand, or 11.3%, when comparing the third quarter of 2017 to the second quarter of 2017.  The increase in interest expense was due to an increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing deposits of $98.4 million, or 12.4%, primarily the result of a full quarter impact of the deposits acquired from NWBI, while the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits remained unchanged. of 46bps, as well as, the elimination of long-term advances from FHLB which had an average balance of $15 million.These decreases in interest expense, were partially offset by the issuance of subordinated debt in the third quarter of 2020 which added $359 thousand of additional expense for the first quarter of 2021. The average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits increased $165.1 million, or 46.8%, between the comparable quarters.

Interest expense on short-term borrowings declined $7decreased $185 thousand, or 63.6% which contributed10.7%, when comparing the first quarter of 2021 to a 1bpthe fourth quarter of 2020. The decrease in interest expense on deposits was due to an 8bps decline in the overall costaverage rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, specifically time deposits that matured and renewed during the first quarter of funds when comparing the third quarter 2017 to the second quarter 2017.2021.

Net Interest Income

Tax-equivalent net interest income increased $4.9 million, or 17.3%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest income of $4.7 million, or 15.6% and a decrease in interest expense of $189 thousand, or 10.1%. These positive variances, resulted in an improved net interest margin of 3.75% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to 3.54% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Interest Income

On a tax-equivalent basis, interest income increased $4.7 million, or 15.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was primarily due to a $4.3 million, or 15.7%, increase in interest income and fees on loans. This increase was due to a $144.9 million, or 17.9% increase in the average balance of loans resulting from the purchase of $122.9 million

in loans from NWBI in the second quarter of 2017 and organic loan growth of $59.2 million. The average yield on loans declined 8 bps, which decreased from 4.54% to 4.46%. In addition, interest and dividends on taxable investment securities increased $350 thousand, or 14.3%,

during the first nine months of 2017 compared to the same period last year, primarily the result of higher average yields on taxable investment securities of 27bps.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $189 thousand, or 10.1%, when comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in interest expense was due to decreases in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits of 6bps and the average balance in short-term borrowings of $2.4 million, or 37.3%. The average balance of total interest-bearing deposits increased $68.7 million, or 9.3% when comparing the first nine months of 2017 to the first nine months of 2016, primarily the result of the acquisition of deposits from NWBI of $212.5 million in the second quarter of 2017.

The following table presents the distribution of the average consolidated balance sheets, interest income/expense, and annualized yields earned and rates paid for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 increased $418$205 thousand, or 10.4%8.7%, when compared to the thirdfirst quarter of 2016.2020. The increase from the thirdfirst quarter of 20162020 was mainly due to higheradditional income from BOLI contracts of $141 thousand and additional bank service charges and fees on deposit accounts, higher trust and investment income, higher insurance agency commissions and a positive result on an insurance agency investment recorded in other income,of $219 thousand, partially offset by higher recognized gains on investment securitiesa decrease in the third quarter of 2016. Noninterest income increased $246 thousand, or 5.9% when compared to the second quarter of 2017 mainly due to service charges on deposit accounts for a full quarter on the deposits acquired in the branch purchase, higher insurance agency commissions and an increase on an insurance agency investment included in other noninterest income.

Total noninterestof $192 thousand. Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased $822decreased $490 thousand, or 6.5%16.1%, when compared to the same period in 2016. The increase was fourth quarter of 2020 primarily due to increases in insurance agency commissionsthe absence of $185swap fee income on loans originated during the fourth quarter of 2020 of $350 thousand and other noninterest incomea decrease in service charges on deposits accounts of $538 thousand which included higher fees on bank services$108 thousand.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 increased $1.5 million,$150 thousand, or 16.3%1.4%, when compared to the thirdfirst quarter of 2016.2020 and decreased $57 thousand, or less than 1%, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase in noninterest expenses for the third quarter of 2017when compared to the thirdfirst quarter of 20162020 was primarily due to operating three additional branches, acquisitionhigher employee benefits, occupancy expense, data processing fees and FDIC insurance premium expense, partially offset by a decrease in salaries and wages and legal and professional expenses. The decrease in noninterest expense when compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily related to lower salaries and wages and legal and professional fees, partially offset by higher employee benefit costs. The decrease in salaries and wages were attributed to the deferral of costs and increasesassociated with originating the second round of PPP loans. The increase in employee benefits duewas the result of higher medical insurance claims.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $425 thousand for the first quarter of 2021, $350 thousand for the first quarter of 2020 and $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to period-end loans was 0.98% at March 31, 2021. Excluding PPP loans, the ratio of the allowance for credit losses to period-end loans was 1.07% at March 31, 2021, higher insurance premiums paid for group insurancethan both the 1.04% at December 31, 2020 and higher salariesthe 0.81% at March 31, 2020. The primary drivers of the increased percentage of the allowance to total loans, excluding PPP loans, as compared to March 31, 2020, were elevated qualitative factors within the allowance model related to economic conditions and wages due to pay increases implementedthe COVID-19 pandemic. The allowance percentage, excluding PPP loans, increased only slightly in the first quarter of 2017. Total noninterest expenses increased $521 thousand, or 5.1%,2021 as compared to December 31, 2020, reflecting the Company’s ongoing evaluation of the risk of probable losses inherent in the portfolio and the consideration of factors, both positive and negative, which have impacted the portfolio since year end. The decrease in provision for credit losses when compared to the secondfourth quarter of 2017.2020 was the result of a decline in historical losses and minimal loan growth. The increase was primarily due to a fullCompany reported no net charge offs or recoveries in the first quarter of operating three additional branches acquired in2021, compared to net recoveries of $61 thousand for the secondfourth quarter of 2017. The branch purchase resulted in increases in salary2020 and wages, employee benefits, and FDIC insurance premium expense, which were partially offset by lower legal and professional fees which were elevated in the second quarter due to the acquisition.

Total noninterest expensenet charge-offs of $479 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2017first quarter of 2020.

Income Taxes

The Company reported income tax expense of $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2021, $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2020 and $1.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Income tax expense increased $2.6 million, or 9.5%, when compared to the same period in 2016.first quarter of 2020 and the fourth quarter of 2020 due to higher pre-tax earnings. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was 26.4% and was 25.3% for the fourth quarter of 2020. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 was 25.2%.  

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Loans

Loans totaled $1.462 billion at March 31, 2021 and $1.454 billion at December 31, 2020, an increase of $7.3 million, or less than 1%. The increase was primarily due to the branch purchase in the second quarterorigination of 2017 which resulted in acquisition costs of $977 thousand and the cost of operating those branches for four months. In addition, higher salaries/wages and employee benefits resulted in increased non-interest expenses which were partially660 round two PPP loans totaling $54.8 million, almost entirely offset by a decrease in FDIC insurance premiums.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $345 thousand for the third quarterforgiveness of 2017, $605 thousand for the third quarterround one PPP loans of 2016 and $974 thousand for the second quarter of 2017. The lower level of provision for credit losses when comparing the third quarter of 2017 to both the third quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of 2017 was driven by lower charge-offs and improved credit quality.The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $1.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively, while net charge-offs were $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The increase in provision for credit losses primarily occurred in the second quarter of 2017 due to the partial charge-off of a negotiated restructured commercial loan. The ratio of annualized net charge-offs to average$52.2 million. Excluding PPP loans, was 0.16%organic growth for the first ninethree months of September 30, 2017 and 0.19% for the same period in 2016.

Income Taxes

For the third quarter of 2017 and 2016, the Company reported income tax expense of $2.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, while the effective tax rate2021 was 40.0% and 37.3%, respectively. The increase in tax rates for the third quarter of 2017 when compared to the same period in 2016 was due to higher pretax income. Income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased $1.3 million, or 29.9%, when compared to the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily due higher taxable income of $2.7$4.7 million, which increased tax rates from 38.0%was hampered by an uncharacteristic level of payoffs experienced during the quarter. The loan pipeline remains very strong and is still expected to produce double-digit annualized loan growth for 2021, despite the recent payoffs in the prior period to 39.9% for the 2017 period.     

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Loans

Loans totaled $1.0 billion at September 30, 2017 and $871.5 million at December 31, 2016, an increase of $175.5 million, or 20.2%. The significant increase was primarily due to loans acquired from NWBI of $122.9 million, which had a balance of $116.5 million at September 30, 2017. Excluding the loans acquired from NWBI, total loans increased $58.8 million, or 6.7%. The most significant categories which increased organically were construction of $18.8 million, residential real estate of $18.6 million and commercial of $18.6 million.first quarter. Loans included deferred fees, net of deferred costs, of $751 thousand and discounts on acquired loans of $677 thousand at March 31, 2021, compared to deferred costs, net of deferred fees, of $632$622 thousand and discounts on acquired loans of $2.0 million at September 30, 2017. Loans included deferred costs, net of deferred fees, of $509$754 thousand at December 31, 2016.2020. We do not engage in foreign or subprime lending activities. See Note 4, “Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses”, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and below under the caption “Allowance for Credit Losses” for additional information.

Our loan portfolio has a commercial real estate loan concentration, which is generally defined as a combination of certain construction and commercial real estate loans. Construction loans were $106.6$116.0 million, or 10.2%7.9% of total loans, at September 30, 2017, higher than the $84.0March 31, 2021 and $106.8 million, or 9.6%7.3% of total loans, at December 31, 2016.2020. Commercial real estate loans were $454.6 million, or 43.4% of total loans, at September 30, 2017, compared to $382.7$641.2 million, or 43.9% of total loans, at March 31, 2021, compared to $661.2 million, or 45.5% of total loans, at December 31, 2016.2020.

The federal banking regulators have issued guidance for those institutions which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending. Pursuant to the supervisory criteria contained in the guidance for identifying institutions with a potential commercial real estate concentration risk, institutions which have (1) total reported loans for construction, land development, and other land acquisitions which represent

42


100% or more of an institution’s total risk-based capital; or (2) total non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans representing 300% or more of the institution’s total risk-based capital and the institution’s non-owner occupied commercial real estate loan portfolio (including construction) has increased 50% or more during the prior 36 months are identified as having potential commercial real estate concentration risk. Institutions which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending are expected to employ heightened levels of risk management with respect to their commercial real estate portfolios, and may be required to hold higher levels of capital. The Company, like many community banks, has a concentration in commercial real estate loans, and the Company has experienced significant growth in its commercial real estate portfolio in recent years. At September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans (including construction, land and land development loans) represented 269.9%303.2% of total risk basedrisk-based capital. At such time, construction, land and land development loans represented 79.4%58.0% of total risk basedrisk-based capital.

The commercial real estate portfolio (including construction) has increased 95.3%46.4% during the prior 36 months. Management has extensive experience in commercial real estate lending, and has implemented and continues to maintain heightened risk management procedures, andas well as strong underwriting criteria with respect to its commercial real estate portfolio. Monitoring practices include periodic stress testing analysis to evaluate changes to cash flows, owing to interest rate increases and declines in net operating income. We may be required to maintain higher levels of capital as a result of our commercial real estate concentrations, which could require us to obtain additional capital andor be required to sell/participate portions of loans, which may adversely affect shareholder returns.

Allowance for Credit Losses

We have established an allowance for credit losses, which is increased by provisions charged against earnings and recoveries of previously charged-off debtsloans and is decreased by current period charge-offs of uncollectible debts.loans. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses at least quarterly and adjusts the provision for credit losses based on this analysis. The evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is based primarily on a risk rating system of individual loans, as well as on a collective evaluation of smaller balance homogenous loans, each grouped by loan type. Each loan type is assigned allowance factors based on criteria such as past credit loss experience, local economic and industry trends, and other measures which may impact collectability. Please refer to the discussion above under the caption “Critical Accounting Policies” for an overview of the underlying methodology management employs to maintain the allowance.

NetThe allowance for credit losses was $14.3 million at March 31, 2021, $10.4 million at March 31, 2020 and $13.9 million at December 31, 2020. There were no net charge-offs were $182or recoveries for the first quarter of 2021, compared to net charge-offs of $479 thousand for the thirdfirst quarter of 20172020 and $349net recoveries of $61 thousand for the thirdfourth quarter of 2016. 2020. The ratio of annualized net recoveries to average loans was 0% for the first quarter of 2021, compared to annualized net charge-offs of 0.15% for the first quarter of 2020 and (0.02)% for the fourth quarter of 2020.

Management remains focused on its efforts to dispose of problem loans and to prudently charge-off nonperforming assetsloans to enable the Company to continue to improve its overall credit quality. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of period-end loans was 0.89% as of September 30, 20170.98% at March 31, 2021, 0.81% at March 31, 2020 and 1.00% for both0.95% at December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2016. The decrease in such2020. Excluding PPP loans, the ratio at September 30, 2017 was due toof the performing loans acquired in the NWBI transaction with no associated allowance since they were recorded at fair value. The allowance for credit losses as ato period-end loans was 1.07% at March 31, 2021, higher than both the 0.81% and 1.04% at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The increase in the percentage of period-endthe allowance to total loans excludingat March 31, 2021, compared to March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020, was primarily due to elevated qualitative factors within the acquired loans from NWBI was 1.00% at September 30, 2017.allowance model primarily related to economic conditions and the COVID-19 pandemic. Management currently believes that the provision for credit losses and the resulting allowance were adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio at September 30, 2017.March 31, 2021.

Despite the balance of nonperforming assets being similar for both the first quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2020, the composition of these assets was in contrast. When comparing nonperforming assets at March 31, 2021 to decreases inDecember 31, 2020, total nonaccrual loans of $2.7 milliondecreased $575 thousand, or 10.5%, and otherloans 90 days past due and still accruing increased $384 thousand, or 47.8%.

This increase was primarily due to a significant nonaccrual TDR being upgraded to an accruing TDR during the third quarter of 2017. 2020 and $38 thousand at March 31, 2020.The ratio of nonaccrual loans and accruing TDRs to total loans decreased to 0.60%0.78% at September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 from 1.03%0.86% at December 31, 2016 which was primarily due to the acquired performing loans from NWBI.

Investment Securities

The investment portfolio is comprised of debt and equity securities. Debt securities that are classified as either available for sale or held to maturity. Investment securities available for sale are stated at estimated fair value based on quoted prices. They represent securities which may be sold as part of the asset/liability management strategy or in response to changing interest rates. Net unrealized holding gains and losses on these securities are reported net of related income taxes as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Investment securities in the held to maturity category are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. We have the intent and current ability to hold such securities until maturity. At September 30, 2017 and DecemberMarch 31, 2016, 97%2021, 49.8% of the portfolio of debt securities was classified as available for sale and 3%50.2% was classified as held to maturity. With the exception of municipal securities, our general practice ismaturity, compared to classify all newly-purchased securities as available for sale.68.0% and 32.0% respectively, at December 31, 2020. See Note 3 - Investment Securities,– “Investment Securities”, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on the composition of our investment portfolio.

Investment securities including restricted stock totaled $219.6$254.6 million at September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, a $49.0$44.3 million, or 28.7%21.1%, increase since December 31, 2016.2020. The increase was primarily due to utilizing the net cash receivedpurchases of held to maturity securities of $61.4 million, partially offset by proceeds from maturities and sales of available for sale securities of $14.2 million, during 2021. Due to the NWBI branch acquisitionexcess liquidity experienced in 2020 and 2021, the Company strategically purchased short duration available for sale securities and subordinated debt of other banks which earn significantly higher average yields than interest-bearing deposits with other banks. As loan demand begins to purchase available-for-sale securities.strengthen, the Company will redeploy proceeds and excess liquidity to fund loan growth. At the end of September 2017, 75.3%March 31, 2021, 85.4% of the securities available for sale were mortgage-backed and 24.4%14.6% were U.S. Government agencies, compared to 78.7%,83.1% and 20.9%16.9%, respectively, at year-end 2016.2020. Our investments in mortgage-backed securities are issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored agencies.

Deposits

Total deposits at September 30, 2017 were $1.2March 31, 2021 amounted to $1.80 billion, a $208.7an increase of $99.9 million, or 20.9%5.9%, increase when compared to the level at December 31, 2016. 2020. The increase was primarily the result of the acquisition of three branches from NWBI which contributed $212.5 million in total deposits which had a balanceconsisted of $199.9increases in interest-bearing deposits of $75.2 million at September 30, 2017. Excluding the deposits acquired from the branch purchase, the Company experienced increases inand noninterest-bearing deposits of $50.6$24.7 million. The growth in interest-bearing deposits was represented by increases in savings and money market accounts of $113.2 million and interest-bearing checkingother time deposits of $21.7$2.7 million, partially offset by declinesa decrease in money market and savings depositsinterest-bearing checking accounts of $22.6 million and time deposits of $40.8$40.6 million.

The significant movement within deposit accounts continues to be impacted by direct government stimulus payments to our customers.

Short-Term Borrowings

Short-term borrowings at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $1.5 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The decrease in short-term borrowings was the result of utilizing cash received in the branch acquisition to reduce these borrowings which tend to have higher rates than core deposits. Short-term borrowings generally consistconsisted of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which increased by $2.5 million, or 233.4%, to $3.5 million at March 31, 2021 when compared to December 31, 2020. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are issued in conjunction with cash management services for commercial depositors,depositors. Other short-term borrowings may consist of overnight borrowingsborrowing from correspondent banks and short-termor advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (the “FHLB”).FHLB. Short-term advances are defined as those with original maturities of one year or less. At September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2016,2020, the Company had no outstanding short-term or long-term advances with FHLB.

Long-Term Debt

The Company uses long-term borrowings included only repurchase agreements.

to meet longer term liquidity needs, specifically to fund loan growth when liquidity from deposit growth is not sufficient. On August 25, 2020, the Company entered into Subordinated Note Purchase Agreements with certain Purchasers pursuant to which the Company issued and sold $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount with an initial interest rate of 5.375% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due September 1, 2030.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We derive liquidity through increased customer deposits, maturities innon-reinvestment of the cash flow from the investment portfolio, loan repayments, borrowings and income from earning assets. As seen in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the Financial Statements, the net decreaseincrease in cash and cash equivalents was $32.0$40.2 million for the first ninethree months of 20172021 compared to an increase in cash of $1.3 million for the first ninethree months of 2016.2020. The decreaseincrease in cash and cash equivalents in 20172021 was mainly due to receiving excessthe significant increase in deposits, the direct result of customer stimulus deposited to and remaining in these accounts as of March 31, 2021. The Company expects these funds to be utilized over the coming months, which may or may not result in a decline in deposit balances. Furthermore, the increase in cash fromand cash equivalents was the NWBI branch transactionresult of the issuance of subordinated notes in the third quarter of 2020, which, was used to purchase available-for-sale securities and paydown short-term borrowings.

net of issuance costs, resulted in $24.5 million in additional liquidity.

To the extent that deposits are not adequate to fund customer loan demand, liquidity needs can be met in the short-term funds markets throughfund markets. The Bank has arrangements with correspondent banks. The Bank hadother corresponding banks whereby it has $15 million available in federal funds lines of credit and a reverse repurchase agreement available on ato meet any short-term basis from correspondent banks at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.needs which may not otherwise be funded by the Bank’s portfolio of readily marketable investments that can be converted to cash. The Bank is also a member of the FHLB, which provides another source of liquidity. Through the FHLB, the Bank had credit availabilitycollateral pledged of approximately $222.0$314.3 million and $205.1$316.7 million at September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2016,2020, respectively. These lines of credit are paid for monthly on a fee basis of 0.425%. The Bank has pledged, under a blanket lien, all qualifying residential and commercial real estate loans under borrowing agreements with the FHLB. Management is not aware of any demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that are likely to materially affect our future ability to maintain liquidity at satisfactory levels.

Total stockholders’ equity increased $8.3$1.1 million to $162.6$196.1 million at September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 when compared to December 31, 20162020 primarily due to the current year’s earnings.retained earnings, partially offset by dividends paid during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the change in fair value of available-for-sale securities recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income.

CBLR

On September 17, 2019, the FDIC finalized a rule that introduces an optional simplified measure of capital adequacy for qualifying community banking organizations (i.e., the community bank leverage ratio (“CBLR”) framework), as required by the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act. The CBLR framework is designed to reduce burden by removing the requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for qualifying community banking organizations that opt into the framework.

On April 6, 2020, in a joint statement, the FDIC, Federal Reserve and the Office of Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), issued two interim final rules regarding temporary changes to the CBLR framework to implement provisions of the CARES Act. Under the interim final rules, the community bank leverage ratio was reduced to 8% beginning in the second quarter and for the remainder of calendar year 2020, 8.5% for calendar year 2021, and 9% thereafter. In order to qualify for the CBLR framework, a community banking organization must have a tier 1 leverage ratio of greater than 8%, less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, and limited amounts of off-balance-sheet exposures and trading assets and liabilities. A qualifying community banking organization that opts into the CBLR framework and meets all requirements under the framework will be considered to have met the well-capitalized ratio requirements under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations and will not be required to report or calculate risk-based capital. The Company has not opted-in to the CBLR framework.

Basel III

A new capital conservation buffer, comprised of common equity Tier 1and other matters affecting regulatory capital was also established above the regulatory minimum capital requirements. This capital conservation buffer became effective as of January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each subsequent year by an additional 0.625% until reaching its final level of 2.5% on January 1, 2019.ratios. Strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments were also implemented under the final rules. The final rules also revise the definition and calculation of Tier 1 capital, Total Capital, and risk-weighted assets.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Our primary market risk is interest rate fluctuation and management has procedures in place to evaluate and mitigate this risk. This risk and these procedures are discussed in Item 7 of Part II of the 20162020 Annual Report under the caption “Market Risk Management and Interest Sensitivity”. Management believes that there have been no material changes in our market risks, the procedures used to evaluate and mitigate these risks, or our actual and simulated sensitivity positions since  December 31, 2016.2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that Shore Bancshares, Inc. files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) with the SEC, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in those rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including Shore Bancshares, Inc.’s principal executive officer (“CEO”PEO”) and its principal accountingfinancial officer (“PAO”PFO”), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. 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 system of controls 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.

An evaluation of the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the CEOPEO and the PAO.PFO. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the CEOPEO and the PAO,PFO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are, in fact, effective at the reasonable assurance level at September 30, 2017.

March 31, 2021.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the thirdfirst quarter of 20172021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
