CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” as defined under U.S. federal securities laws. These statements reflect management’s current knowledge, assumptions, beliefs, estimates, and expectations and express management’s current views of future performance, results, and trends and may be identified by their use of terms such as “may,” “likely,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,” “contemplate,” “seek,” “assume,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” “goal,” and “estimate,” and other similar terms. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Such statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and we undertake no obligation to update such statements after this date, unless otherwise required by law.

Risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements include those discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including those described in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

FRANKLIN FINANCIAL NETWORK, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods reported have been included as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim consolidated financial statements and notes be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 19, 2019.

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Franklin Financial Network, Inc. (“FFN”), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Franklin Synergy Bank (“Franklin Synergy” or the “Bank”) and Franklin Synergy Risk Management, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). Franklin Synergy Investments of Tennessee, Inc., Franklin Synergy Investments of Nevada, Inc., and Franklin Synergy Preferred Capital, Inc. are direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Bank and are included in these consolidated financial statements. Significant intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases which requires recognition in the statement of financial position of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP.

The guidance requires that a lessee should now recognize lease assets and lease liabilities as compared to previous GAAP that did not require lease assets and lease liabilities to be recognized for operating leases. The guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. In July 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842,

Leases which provides technical corrections and improvements to ASU 2016-02. In July 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements which provides an optional transition method to adopt the new requirements of ASU 2016-02 as of the adoption date with no adjustment to the presentation or disclosure of comparative prior periods included in the financial statements in the period of adoption. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01, “Leases: Codification Improvements” whichaddresses lessors and clarifies the transition guidance related to certain interim disclosures provided in the year of adoption. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, elected the optional transition method, on January 1, 2019, which will result in presentationand subsequently adopted ASU 2019-01. The Company recorded a right of periods prior to adoption under the prioruse asset and lease guidanceliability of ASC Topic 840. In December 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-20, Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors. ASU 2018-20 permits lessors to account for certain taxes as lessee costs, permits lessors to exclude from revenue certain lessor costs paid by lessees directly to third parties, and requires lessors to allocate certain variable payments to lease and non-lease components. $43,723. See Note 5 - Leases for more information.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. These amendments shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium to require such premiums to be amortized to the earliest call date unless applicable guidance related to certain pools of securities is applied to consider estimated prepayments. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2019, and using a modified retrospective transition adoption approach, we recognized a cumulative effect reduction to retainretained earnings totaling $2,244.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-16, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes.” The amendmentsThis update expands the list of U.S. benchmark interest rates permitted in this update permit usethe application of hedge accounting by adding the OIS rate based on the SOFR. Due to concerns about the sustainability of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), a committee convened by the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York initiated an effort to introduce an alternative reference rate in the U.S. The committee identified SOFR as the preferred alternative reference rate to LIBOR. The OIS rate based on SOFR was added as a U.S. benchmark interest rate to facilitate broader use in the marketplace and provide sufficient lead time for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815 in additionentities to prepare for changes to interest rate risk hedging strategies. The Company adopted the interest rates on direct U.S. Treasury obligations, the LIBOR swap rate, the OIS rate based on the Fed Funds Effective Rate and the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Municipal Swap Rate.provisions of ASU No. 2018-16 became effective for us on January 1, 2019, and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01, “Leases: Codification Improvements.” This ASU (1) states that for lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers, the fair value of the underlying asset is its cost, less any volume or trade discounts, as long as there isn’t a significant amount of time between acquisition of the asset and lease commencement; (2) clarifies that lessors in the scope of ASC 942 (such as the Company) must classify principal payments received from sales-type and direct financing leases in investing activities in the statement of cash flows; and (3) clarifies the transition guidance related to certain interim disclosures provided in the year of adoption. To coincide with the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2019-01 on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this ASUit did not have a material impact on the Company’sour consolidated financial statements.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU requires 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 better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of


expected credit losses. Organizations will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. The ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 (i.e., January 1, 2020, for calendar year entities). Early application will be permitted for all organizations for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018; however, the Company does not currently plan to early adopt this ASU. The Company is currently gathering informationfollowing amendments to ASU 2016-13 are also in consideration by the Company: ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and working to determine the methodology to be used.Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, and ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. The Company is gathering as much data as possiblecontinues to enable review scenarios and to determine which calculations will producemake progress in accordance with the most reliable results.Company’s implementation plan for adoption. The Company is still evaluatinghas developed new expected credit loss estimation models. Depending on the impactnature of this new guidanceeach identified pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, the Company currently plans on our financial statements; however an increase inimplementing a DCF method or a loss-rate method to estimate expected credit losses. Incorporating reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions into the overall ALLL is likely upon adoption to provide forestimate of expected credit losses will require significant judgment, such as selecting economic variables and forecast scenarios as well as determining the appropriate length of the forecast horizon. Management will estimate credit losses over a forecast horizon and revert to long term historical loss experience on a straight-line basis. Management will select economic variables it believes to be most relevant based on the lifecomposition of the loan portfolio.portfolio, likely to include forecasted levels of employment, non-performing and delinquent loan third party industry data, and real estate and construction metrics. Management currently intends to leverage economic projections from a reputable and independent third party to inform its reasonable and supportable forecasts over the one-year forecast period. Management, when developing the forecast metrics, will also consider other internal and external indicators of economic forecasts.

The ultimate impact of ASU 2016-13 will depend on the composition of the portfolio and economic conditions and forecasts at the time of adoption. It could also be subject to further regulatory or accounting guidance and other management validation and judgments. More specifically, the current estimated change in reserve is influenced by the longer contractual maturities of the real estate lending portfolios being offset by the shorter contractual maturities of the construction and commercial loan portfolios. This estimated impact at adoption also includes certain qualitative adjustments to the allowance for credit losses.

Management is currently assessing the impact on available-for-sale securities to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASU 2016-13. The ultimate impact will depend upon the nature and characteristics of our securities portfolios (including issuer specific matters) at the adoption date, the macroeconomic conditions and forecasts at that date, and other management judgments.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04,Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other goodwill impairment guidance will remain largely unchanged. ASU 2017-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. Adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This ASU eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Among the changes, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted. As ASU No. 2018-13 only revises disclosure requirements, it will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20).” ASU 2018-14 amends and modifies

In August 2018, the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other post-retirement plans. The amendmentsFASB issued in this update remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for us on January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted, and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

ASU 2018-15,Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) - Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract.” ASU 2018-15 clarifies certain aspects of ASU 2015-05, “Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement,” which was issued in April 2015. Specifically, ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). ASU 2018-15 does


not affect the accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 will be effective for usthe Company on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

At the time of transfer, the securities had an amortized cost of $117,409 and a fair value of $121,964. Due to the continued decline in interest rates, the Company elected to move the securities into available-for-sale to provide more opportunities to reposition the portfolio.

There were no securities held-to-maturity at September 30, 2019. The amortized cost and fair value of the securities held to maturity portfolioheld-to-maturity at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and the corresponding amounts of gross unrecognized gains and losses were as follows:

Unrealized losses on debt securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers’ bonds are of high credit quality (rated AA or higher).quality. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, management does not intend to sell and it is more likely than not that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity.

Credit Quality Indicators: The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans as well as non-homogeneous residential real estate loans. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.


Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass-rated loans. The following table excludes deferred loan fees and includes PCI loans, which are included in the “Substandard” column. Based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows as of March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

NOTE 5—LEASES

A lease is defined as a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases” (Topic 842) and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 842. For the Company, Topic 842 primarily affected the accounting treatment for operating lease agreements in which the Company is the lessee. The leases are presented as of part of other assets and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Lessee Accounting

Substantially all of the leases in which the Company is the lessee are comprised of real estate property for branches and office space with terms extending through 2033.2034. Substantially all of our leases are classified as operating leases, and therefore, were previously not recognized on the Company’s consolidated statements of condition. Upon adoption of FASB ASU 2016-02 Leases on January 1, 2019, the Company began recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to its operating leases. Prior to ASU 2016-02, such assets and liabilities were recognized only for capital leases (referred to as finance leases under the amendments of ASU 2016-02). In accordance with the optional transition method allowed by ASU 2016-11, comparative prior period information included within this note is presented in accordance with guidance in effect during those periods. The Company has one existing finance lease for additional office space with a lease term through 2033. As this lease was previously required to be recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of condition, and was recorded in other assets and other liabilities, Topic 842 did not materially impact the accounting for this lease. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019Subsequent to March 31, 2019, one additional lease agreement has been executed with the planand is scheduled to relocatecommence in 2020 relocating one branch in Williamson County, Tennessee.


The following table represents the consolidated statements of condition classification of the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities. The Company elected not to include short-term leases (i.e., leases with initial terms of twelve months or less), or equipment leases (deemed immaterial) on the consolidated statements of condition.

The calculated amount of the ROU assets and lease liabilities in the table above are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company’s lease agreements often include one or more options to renew at the Company’s discretion, which will be determined within the timeframe of the lease agreement, and not included within the calculated ROU. The Company utilizes the discount rate implicit in the lease whenever this rate is readily determinable. As this rate is rarely determinable, the Company calculated a blended rate consisting of the Federal Home Loan Bank’s rate matching to the duration of the lease (over-collateralized borrowing rate) and the offering rate of the Company’s most recent subordinated debt offering in June of 2016. For operating leases existing prior to January 1, 2019, the rate for the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019, was used. For the Company’s only finance lease that commenced December 2018, the Company utilized its blended rate calculation based on the term of the lease.

The following table represents lease costs and other lease information.information for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. As the Company elected, for all classes of underlying assets, not to separate lease and non-lease components and instead to account for them as a single lease component, the variable lease cost primarily represents variable payments such as common area maintenance and utilities.

NOTE 6—SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

The Company has two share based compensation plans as described below. Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for those plans was $1,329$1,313 and $759$4,155, for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.$1,376 and $3,454 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The total income tax benefit, which is shown on the Consolidated Statements of Income as a reduction of income tax expense, was $113($9) and $63$177 for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and was $285 and $568 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

Stock Options: The Company’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”), as amended and shareholder-approved, provided for authorized shares up to 4,000,000. The 2007 Plan provided that no options intended to be ISOs may be granted after April 9, 2017. As a result, the Company’s board of directors approved, and recommended to its shareholders for approval, an equity incentive plan, the 2017 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan which the Company’s shareholders approved at the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders. On April 12, 2018, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Amended and Restated 2017 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“Amended and Restated 2017 Plan”) to make certain changes in response to feedback received from our shareholders. The terms of the Amended and Restated 2017 Plan are substantially similar to the terms of the 2007 Plan it was intended to replace. The Amended and Restated 2017 Plan provides for authorized shares up to 3,500,000. At March 31,September 30, 2019, there were 2,481,8352,411,440 authorized shares available for issuance under the Amended and Restated 2017 Plan.


Employee, organizer and director stock option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant; those option awards havea ten-year contractual term with varying vesting requirements. The Company assigns discretion to its Board of DirectorsCompensation Committee to make grants either as qualified incentive stock options or as non-qualified stock options. All employee grants are intended to be treated as qualified incentive stock options, if allowable. All other grants are expected to be treated as non-qualified.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected stock price volatility is based on historical volatilities of the Company. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior.


The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

The fair value of options granted was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of grant date.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units: Additionally, the 2007 Plan and the Amended and Restated 2017 Plan each provides for the granting of restricted share awards and other performance related incentives. When the restricted shares are awarded, a participant receives voting and dividend rights with respect to the shares, but is not able to transfer the shares until the restrictions have lapsed. In April 2019, the Company began awarding restricted share units which participants do not have voting rights or dividend rights until the restrictions have lapsed. These awards typically have a vesting period of three to five years and vest in equal annual installments on the anniversary date of the grant.

NOTE 7—REGULATORY CAPITAL MATTERS

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. Banks (Basel III rules) became effective for the Company on January 1, 2016 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019.

The Basel III rules additionally provide for countercyclical capital requirements so that the required amount of capital increases in times of economic expansion and decreases in times of economic contraction, consistent with safety and soundness. Under the Basel III rules, banks must maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional Common Equity Tier 1 Capital equal to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets above each of the required minimum capital levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying certain discretionary bonuses. This new capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in beginning January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increased each year until fully implemented at 2.5% in January 2019.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. At March 31,September 30, 2019, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Management believes that, as of March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

Dividend Restrictions: The Company’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from the Bank. Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained net profits of the preceding two years, subject to the capital requirements described above.


NOTE 8—DERIVATIVESDERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Financial derivatives are reported at fair value in other assets or other liabilities. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship. For derivatives not designated as hedges, the gain or loss is recognized in current earnings.

Derivatives designated as fair value hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. The gain or loss on the derivative instrument is presented on the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. The Company utilizes interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges to mitigate the effect of changing interest rates on the fair values of fixed rate callable securities available-for-sale. The hedging strategy on securities converts the fixed interest rates to LIBOR-based variable interest rates. These derivatives are designated as partial term hedges of selected cash flows covering specified periods of time prior to the call dates of the hedged securities.


During2019, the Company entered into sixteen16 swap transactions with a notional amount of $101.2 million$101,205 designated as fair value hedges. These derivatives are intended to protect against the effects of changing interest rates on the fair values of fixed rate securities.

A summary of the Company's fair value hedge relationships as of March 31,September 30, 2019 are as follows (in thousands):

Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the aggregate fair value of the derivative instrument is recorded in other assets or other liabilities with any gain or loss related to changes in fair value recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. The gain or loss is reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged asset or liability affects earnings and is presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged asset or liability. The Company uses cash flow hedge relationships in an effort to manage future interest rate exposure. The hedging strategy converts the LIBOR-based variable interest rate on forecasted borrowings to a fixed interest rate and is used in an effort to protect the Company from floating interest rate variability.

NOTE 9—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We enter into certain off-balance sheet arrangements in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. Those agreements involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. These off-balance sheet arrangements include commitments to make loans, credit lines and standby letters of credit which would impact our liquidity and capital resources to the extent customers accept or use these commitments. A commitment to extend credit is a formal agreement to lend funds to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established under the agreement. The actual borrowing needs of our customers under these credit commitments have historically been lower than the contractual amount of the commitments. A significant portion of these commitments expire without being drawn upon. Actual borrowing needs of our customers may exceed our expected funding requirements, especially during a challenging economic environment when our client companies may be more dependent on our credit commitments due to the lack of available credit elsewhere, the increasing costs of credit, or the limited availability of financings from other sources. Any failure to meet our unfunded credit commitments in accordance with the actual borrowing needs of our customers may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or reputation.

Commitments to make loans, credit lines and standby letters of credit involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. Off-balance-sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet financial instruments.

NOTE 10—FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2), using matrix pricing. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique commonly used to price debt securities that are not actively traded and values debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). Included in securities is interest rate swap agreements. The carrying amount of the interest rate swap agreements is based on pricing models that utilize observable market inputs (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3).

Other Assets: Included in other assets are certain assets carried at fair value and interest rate locks associated with the mortgage loan pipeline. The fair value of the mortgage loan pipeline rate locks is based upon the projected sales price of the underlying loans, taking into account market interest rates and other market factors at the measurement date, net of the projected fallout rate. These assets are valued using similar observable data that occurs in the market.market (Level 2).

Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. Appraisals for impaired loans are generally obtained annually but may be obtained more frequently based on changing circumstances as part of the aforementioned quarterly evaluation.

Foreclosed Assets: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals which are updated no less frequently than annually. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Foreclosed assets are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.


Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the credit administration department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value.


Loans Held For Sale: At September 30, 2019, the Company has a transaction that had not settled and is classified as loans held for sale and, therefore, is reported as the quoted price in the active market as of the measurement date (Level 1).

The Company has elected the fair value option for loans held for sale to align with other accounting policies related to mortgage banking, such as mortgage banking derivatives. These loans are typically sold to an investor following loan origination and the fair value of such accounts are readily available based on direct quotes from investors or similar transactions experienced in the secondary loan market. Fair value adjustments, as well as realized gains and losses are recorded in current earnings. Fair value is determined by market prices for similar transactions adjusted for specific attributes of that loan (Level 2).

Other Liabilities: The Company has certain liabilities carried at fair value including certain interest rate swap agreements to facilitate customer transactions, and the cash flow hedge and interest rate locks associated with the funding for its mortgage loan originations. The fair value of these liabilities is based on pricing models that utilize observable market inputs (Level 2).

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including financial assets and liabilities for which the Company has elected the fair value option, are summarized below:

The methods and assumptions not previously described used to estimate fair values are described as follows:

(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

(b) Loans: Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: In accordance with ASU 2016-01, the fair value of loans held for investment, excluding previously presented impaired loans measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, is estimated using a cash flow projection methodology that relies on three primary assumptions: (1) the expected prepayment rate of loans; (2) the magnitude of future net losses based on expected default rate and severity of loss; and (3) the discount rate applicable to the expected cash flows of the loan portfolio. Loans are considered a Level 3 classification.


(c) Mortgage Servicing Rights: Fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on valuation models that calculate the present value of estimated net cash flows based on industry market data. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net cash flows resulting in a Level 3 classification.

(d) Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 1 classification. The carrying amounts of fixed-term money market accounts approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(e) Federal Funds Purchased and Repurchase Agreements: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings, generally maturing within ninety90 days, approximate their fair values resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(f) Federal Home Loan Bank Advances: The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(g) Subordinated Notes: The fair values of the Company’s subordinated notes are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 3 classification.

(h) Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value resulting in a Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 classification based on the asset/liability with which they are associated.

(i) Off-balance Sheet Instruments: Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of commitments is not material.


NOTE 10—11—EARNINGS PER SHARE

The two-class method is used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class method, earnings available to common shareholders for the period are allocated between common shareholders and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The factors used in the earnings per share computation follow:

NOTE 11—12—SUBORDINATED DEBT ISSUANCE

The Company’s subordinated notes, net of issuance costs, totaled $58,738$58,827 and $58,693 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and at December 31, 2018, respectively. For regulatory capital purposes, the subordinated notes are treated as Tier 2 capital, subject to certain limitations, and are included in total regulatory capital when calculating the Company’s total capital to risk weighted assets ratio as indicated in Note 7 of these consolidated financial statements.

The Company completed the issuance of $60,000 in principal amount of subordinated notes in two separate offerings. In March 2016, $40,000 of 6.875% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes (the “March 2016 Subordinated Notes”) were issued in a public offering to accredited institutional investors, and in June 2016, $20,000 of 7.00% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes (the “June 2016 Subordinated Notes”) were issued to certain accredited institutional investors in a private offering. The subordinated notes are unsecured and will rank at least equally with all of the Company’s other unsecured subordinated indebtedness and will be effectively subordinated to all of our secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt. The subordinated notes will be subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior indebtedness, and will rank structurally junior to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries including, in the case of the Company’s bank subsidiary, its depositors, and any preferred equity holders of our subsidiaries. The holders of the subordinated notes may be fully subordinated to interests held by the U.S. government in the event that we enter into a receivership, insolvency, liquidation, or similar proceeding.


The issuance costs related to the March 2016 Subordinated Notes amounted to $1,382 and are being amortized as interest expense over the ten-year term of the March 2016 Subordinated Notes. The issuance costs related to the June 2016 Subordinated Notes were $404 and are being amortized as interest expense over the ten-year term of the June 2016 Subordinated Notes. For the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, amortization of issuance costs has amounted to $45 and $45, respectively.remained consistent at $134.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ.

The Company’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported. Accounting policies are described in detail in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on March 19, 2019. The critical accounting policies require judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments and contingencies. Management has established policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an appropriate manner. The following is a brief summary of the more significant policies.

Allowance for Loan Losses (ALLL)

The ALLL is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes a loan balance has become uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors.

Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.


The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. A loan is 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. Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings (TDR’s)(“TDR” or “TDRs”) and classified as impaired.

Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

All loans classified by management as substandard or worse are individually evaluated for impairment. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.

TDR’sTDRs are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a TDR is considered to be a collateral dependent loan, the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral. For TDR’sTDRs that subsequently default, the Company determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the ALLL.

The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on a combination of the Bank’s loss history and loss history from the Bank’s peer group over the past three years. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other qualitative factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These economic factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures, and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses represents a charge to earnings necessary to establish an ALLL that, in management’s evaluation, should be adequate to provide coverage for the probable losses incurred in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and is decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries on prior loan charge-offs.

The provision for loan losses was $5,055$1,000 and $573$136 for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $13,086 and $1,279 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The higher provision for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 is resulting from an uptick in, and developments relating to, the Company’s classified assets. The increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 when compared to the same period in 2018 is based ondetermined from the Company’s analysis of its ALLL, which is based on the loan portfolio’s risk profileprofile. Additionally, the increased provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was driven primarily by a specific reserve of $3,455$9,759 during the second quarter of 2019, related to a SNC relationship, and comparatively higher loan growth, resulted in more provision being recorded.relationship. Nonperforming loans at March 31,September 30, 2019 totaled $11,904$3,107 compared to $5,696 at December 31, 2018, representing 0.42%0.11% and 0.22%0.21% of total loans for the respective periods.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 was $3,486$4,793 and $13,202, compared to $3,456$3,442 and $11,045 for the same periodperiods in 2018.2018, respectively. The following is a summary of the components of non-interest income (in thousands):

Mortgage banking revenue increased $123$1,212 and $1,755 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019.September 30, 2019, respectively. The increase was due to the volume of mortgage loans originated, the sales related to those loans and more favorable market rates in 2019, which resulted in favorable fair value adjustments on mortgage derivatives.

 

Gain (loss) on sale or call of securities increased $1,494 and $2,009 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, when compared with the same periods in 2018. The decrease in (loss) gainincrease was due to the Company’s election to sell certain securities to take advantage of the market conditions that existed during the third quarter of 2019. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company’s management elected to sell certain of its securities as part of its balance sheet management initiatives. The Company evaluated its securities held-to-maturity and determined that certain securities no longer adhered to the Company’s strategic focus and could be sold or reinvested to potentially improve the Company’s liquidity position, duration profile and net interest margin.  Accordingly, the Company was no longer able to assert that it had the intent to hold these securities until maturity and, as a result, the


Company transferred all of its securities held-to-maturity to securities available-for-sale. Once the securities were transferred to available-for-sale, certain securities were sold as part of the Company’s balance sheet management initiatives.

Net loss on sale of loans is attributabledecreased non-interest income $1,758 and $1,972 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, when compared with the same periods in 2018. The losses for the three and nine months were primarily attributed to sales of several SNC relationships during the third quarter of 2019, which resulted in a loss of $1,765 that was recognized during the third quarter of 2019. The Company had also recorded a loss of $223 related to the sale of a Shared National CreditSNC relationship during the threefirst quarter of 2019 that, combined with the loss recorded in the third quarter of 2019, account for the increased loss when comparing the nine months ended March 31, 2019.

Loans

Lending-related income is the most important component of the Company’s net interest income and is a major contributor to profitability. The loan portfolio is the largest component of earning assets, and therefore generates the largest portion of revenues. For purposes of the discussion in this section, the term “loans” refers to loans, excluding loans held for sale, unless otherwise noted.

The absolute volume of loans and the volume of loans as a percentage of earning assets is an important determinant of net interest margin as loans are expected to produce higher yields than securities and other earning assets. Total loans, net of deferred fees, at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $2,807,377$2,796,233 and $2,665,399, respectively, an increase of $141,978,$130,834 or 5.3%4.9%. As a percentage of total assets, total loans, net of deferred fees, at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were 66.2%73.2% and 62.7% of total assets,, respectively. Growth in the loan portfolio is primarily due to increased market penetration and a healthy local economy. The Company has also attracted a number of experienced commercial and mortgage lenders to develop new relationships and broaden its presence in its primary markets in Middle Tennessee which include, Williamson County, Davidson County and Rutherford County.

The discussion in the following paragraphs includes the PCI loans in the breakdown of the various categories of loans.

Total gross loans increased 5.3%5.0% during the first threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, due to organic growth as a result of continued market penetration and the strength of the local economies. During this period, the Company experienced growth in real estate loans of 4.8%7.1% with growth occurring in the residential real estate 1.7% and commercial real estate 11.4%  segments.segment of 17.8%, and the construction and development segment of 2.4%. The Company also experienced an increasea decrease of 7.5%2.5% in the commercial and industrial segment during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019.

Real estate loans including $74 of PCI loans, comprised 77.2%79.1% of the loan portfolio at March 31,September 30, 2019. The largest portion of the real estate segments as of March 31,September 30, 2019, was commercial real estate loans, which totaled 41.2%42.7% of real estate loans. Commercial real estate loans totaled $893,490$945,435 at March 31,September 30, 2019, and comprised 31.8%33.8% of the total loan portfolio. The commercial real estate loan classification primarily includes commercial-based mortgage loans that are secured by nonfarm, nonresidential real estate properties and other properties.

Construction and land development loans totaled $581,340$598,211 at March 31,September 30, 2019, and comprised 26.8%27.0% of total real estate loans and 20.7%21.4% of the total loan portfolio. Loans in this classification provide financing for the construction and development of residential properties and commercial income properties, multi-family residential development, and land designated for future development. This portfolio has remained steady in absolute dollar terms since 2017, representing a lower corresponding portion of the loan portfolio.

The residential real estate classification primarily includes 1-4 family residential loans which are typically conventional first-lien home mortgages, not including loans held-for-sale in the secondary market, and it also includes home equity lines of credit and other junior lien mortgage loans. Residential real estate loans totaled $694,264$672,526 and comprised 32.0%30.3% of real estate loans and 24.7%24.0% of total loans at March 31,September 30, 2019.

Commercial and industrial loans totaled $637,363$578,056 at March 31, 2019 which includes $1,946 of PCI loans.September 30, 2019. Loans in this classification comprised 22.7%20.6% of total loans at March 31,September 30, 2019. The commercial and industrial classification consists of commercial loans to small-to-medium sized businesses, shared national credits, and commercial healthcare loans.

The banking agencies define a “Shared National Credit” (SNC)(“SNC”) as any loan extended to a borrower which aggregates $100 million or more and is shared by three or more banks. The SNC portfolio totaled $229,608$144,476 at March 31,September 30, 2019, decreasing $19,425, or 31.6%,148.8% annualized, from $249,033$231,216 at December 31, 2018.June 30, 2019, driven by the sales and paydowns of $86.7 of SNCs during the third quarter of 2019. All of the outstanding balance of SNCs was included in the commercial and industrial portfolio. SNC participations are originated in the normal course of business to meet the needs of our customers and are reviewed at least quarterly for credit quality.

The information presented in the above table is based upon the contractual maturities of the individual loans, including loans which may be subject to renewal at their contractual maturity. Renewal of such loans is subject to review and credit approval, as well as modification of terms upon their maturity. Consequently, management believes this treatment presents fairly the maturity structure of the loan portfolio.

Allowance for Loan Losses (ALLL)

The Company maintains an ALLL that management believes is adequate to absorb the probable incurred losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses charged to earnings and is decreased by loan charge-offs net of recoveries of prior period loan charge-offs. The level of the allowance is determined on a quarterly basis, although management is engaged in monitoring the adequacy of the allowance on a more frequent basis. In estimating the allowance balance, the following factors are considered:

past loan experience;

the nature and volume of the portfolio;

risks known about specific borrowers;

underlying estimated values of collateral securing loans;

current and anticipated economic conditions; and

other factors which may affect the allowance for probable incurred losses.


The ALLL consists of two primary components: (1) a specific component which relates to loans that are individually classified as impairedimpaired; and (2) a general component which covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on a combination of the Company’s loss history and loss history from peer group data over the past three years. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment.

The following loan portfolio segments have been identified: (1) Construction and land development loans,loans; (2) Commercial real estate loans,loans; (3) Residential real estate loans,loans; (4) Commercial and industrial loansloans; and (5) Consumer and other loans. Management evaluates the risks associated with these segments based upon specific characteristics associated with the loan segments. These risk characteristics include, but are not limited to, the value of the underlying collateral, adverse economic conditions and the borrower’s cash flow. While the total allowance consists of a specific portion and a general portion, both portions of the allowance are available to provide for probable incurred loan losses in the entire portfolio.


In the table below, the components, as discussed above, of the ALLL are shown at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

(1) Loans acquired are performing loans recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date. Based on the analysis performed by management as of March 31, 2019, $169 in ALLL was recorded at March 31, 2019 related to the loans acquired and not otherwise considered PCI.

Acquired loans are performing loans recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date. Based on the analysis performed by management as of September 30, 2019, $83 in ALLL was recorded at September 30, 2019 related to the loans acquired.

At March 31,September 30, 2019, the ALLL was $27,857,$26,474, compared to $23,451 at December 31, 2018. The ALLL as a percentage of total loans HFI was 0.99%0.95% at March 31,September 30, 2019 and 0.88% at December 31, 2018. TheDuring the nine months at September 30, 2019, the Company’s loan growth and management’s evaluation of the risk profile, combined with recentan uptick in and developments in one SNC relationship during the first quarter of 2019relating to our classified assets, are the primary reasons for the $3,023 increase in the allowance amount.


As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s total non-performing assets (NPA) were 0.08% of assets, or $3,107, a decrease of approximately $2,589 from December 31, 2018. The NPA/ALLL coverage ratio was 852% at September 30, 2019, more than double the 415% coverage present at December 31, 2018. Classified Assets were $50,090 at September 30, 2019, representing 1.77% of loans HFI, up from 1.45% of loans HFI at December 31, 2018. Potential problem loans, which are not included in nonperforming assets, amounted to $47,062, or 1.7% of total loans held for investment at September 30, 2019, compared to $33,223, or 1.2% of total loans held for investment at December 31, 2018. Potential problem loans represent those loans where information about possible credit problems of borrowers has caused management to have doubts about the borrower’s ability to comply with present repayment terms.  This definition is for substandard loans, which are still accruing interest and excluding the impact of substandard nonaccrual loans.

Nonperforming Assets

Non-performing loans consist of non-accrual loans and loans that are past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans plus OREO (i.e.,foreclosed real estate acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure).estate. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when they are past due 90 days and / and/or management believes the borrower’s financial condition, after giving consideration to economic conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, interest accruals cease, and uncollected interest is reversed and charged against current income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis, or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

The primary component of non-performing loans is non-accrual loans, which as of March 31,September 30, 2019 totaled $11,724.$3,028. The other component of non-performing loans are loans past due greater than 90 days and still accruing interest which totaled $180$79 at March 31,September 30, 2019. Loans past due greater than 90 days are placed on non-accrual status, unless they are both well-secured and in the process of collection.

The table below summarizes non-performing loans and assets for the periods presented.

Investment Securities and Other Earning Assets

The investment securities portfolio is intended to provide the Company with adequate liquidity and a source of stable income. The portfolio is structured with minimal credit exposure to the Company and consists of both securities classified as available-for-sale and securities classified as held-to-maturity. All available-for sale securities are carried at fair value and may be used for liquidity purposes should management deem it to be in the Company’s best interest. Securities available-for-sale, consisting primarily of U.S. government sponsored enterprises and mortgage-backed securities, totaled $799,301$612,371 at March 31,September 30, 2019, compared to $1,030,668 at December 31, 2018, a decrease of $231,367,$418,297, or 22.4%40.6%. The decrease in available-for-sale securities was primarily attributed to security sales during the first threenine months of 2019. Offsetting the decrease in available-for-sale securities, was the transfer of the held-to-maturity securities portfolio into available-for-sale during the second quarter of 2019. Held-to-maturity balances with an amortized cost of $117,409 and a fair value of $121,964 were transferred into the available-for-sale portfolio. Given the continued fall in interest rates, the Company elected to make this change to provide more opportunities to reposition the portfolio.

Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. This portfolio, consisting of U.S. government sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities, totaled $118,831$0 at March 31,September 30, 2019, compared to $121,617 at December 31, 2018, a decrease of $2,786,$121,617, or 2.3%100.0%. The decrease is attributablechange was primarily the result of the transfer of the portfolio to securities that matured or had principalavailable-for-sale discussed above during the third quarter of 2019 in addition to pay downs duringand the first three monthsamortization of 2019.premiums/discounts on the securities.


The combined securities portfolios represented 21.7%16.0% and 27.1% of total assets at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. At March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company had no securities that were classified as having other than temporary impairment.

The Company also had other investments of $22,803$24,764 and $21,831 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, primarily consisting of capital stock in the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank (requiredrequired as members of the Federal Reserve Bank System (FRB)(“FRB”) and the Federal Home Loan Bank System (FHLB)(“FHLB”). The FHLB and FRB investments are “restricted” in that they can only be sold back to the respective institutions or another member institution at par, and are thus, not liquid, have no ready market or quoted market value, and are carried at cost.

Bank Premises and Equipment

Bank premises and equipment totaled $12,682$12,449 at March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $12,371 at December 31, 2018, an increase of $311,$78, or 2.5%0.6%. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $389 in leasehold improvements net of depreciation related to several of the Company’s locations.

Deposits

At March 31,September 30, 2019, total deposits were $3,315,844, an increase$3,061,950, a decrease of $115,963,$369,857, or 3.4%10.8%, compared to $3,431,807 at December 31, 2018. Included in the Company’s funding strategy are brokered deposits, public funds deposits and reciprocal deposits. Total brokered deposits decreased $79,112,$208,313, or 9.9%26.1%, to $718,683$589,482 at March 31,September 30, 2019, when compared with $797,795 at December 31, 2018, which reflects the Company’s strategy to reduce its dependence on non-core funding. Public funds deposits decreased $153,904,$433,355, or 19.7%55.4%, to $628,985$349,535 at March 31,September 30, 2019 when compared with $782,889$782,890 at December 31, 2018 due to the Company’s strategy to redirect some of the Company’s local government customers into the reciprocal account relationships, thereby decreasing the Company’s requirements to collateralize those public funds deposits. As a result, reciprocal deposits increased $122,509,$53,693, or 39.2%17.2%, to $435,191$366,375 at MarchSeptember 30, 2019, compared to $312,682 at December 31, 2019.2018.

Time deposits, excluding brokered deposits and public funds, as of March 31,September 30, 2019, amounted to $412,650,$420,800, compared to $532,445 as of December 31, 2018, a decrease of $119,795,$111,645, or 22.5%21.0%.

Subordinated Notes

At March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company’s subordinated notes, net of issuance costs, totaled $58,738,$58,827 compared with $58,693 at December 31, 2018. For more information related to the subordinated notes and the related issuance costs, please see Note 1112 of the consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity

Liquidity is defined as the ability to meet anticipated customer demands for funds under credit commitments and deposit withdrawals at a reasonable cost and on a timely basis.

Liquidity risk involves the risk of being unable to fund assets with the appropriate duration and rate-based liabilities, as well as the risk of not being able to meet unexpected cash needs. Liquidity planning and management are necessary to ensure the ability to fund operations cost-effectively and to meet current and future potential obligations such as loan commitments, lease obligations, and unexpected deposit outflows. In this process, management focuses on both assets and liabilities and on the manner in which they combine to provide adequate liquidity to meet the Company’s needs. Our source of funds to pay interest on our March 2016 Subordinated Notes and June 2016 Subordinated Notes is generally in the form of a dividend from the Bank to the Company, or those payments may be serviced from cash balances held by the Company. The Bank’s ability to pay a dividend may be restricted due to regulatory requirements as well as the Bank’s future earnings and capital needs.

Funds are available from a number of basic banking activity sources including the core deposit base, the repayment and maturity of loans, payments of principal and interest as well as sales of investments classified as available-for-sale, and sales of brokered deposits. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, $799,301$612,371 of the investment securities portfolio was classified as available-for-sale and is reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. Another  $118,831 of the portfolio was classified as held-to-maturity and is reported at amortized cost. Approximately $711,826$342,286 of the total $918,132$612,371 investment securities portfolio on hand at March 31,September 30, 2019, was pledged to secure public deposits and repurchase agreements. Other funding sources available include repurchase agreements, federal funds purchased, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank.

Equity

As of March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company’s equity was $383,514,$408,261, as compared with $372,833 as of December 31, 2018. The increase in equity was due to the Company’s earnings of $2,901$19,398 in the first quarter ofnine months ended September 30, 2019, the increase in common stock increase of $1,853, offset by$4,937, less dividends paid of $1,751 and the $8,754$2,244 decrease for the amortization of security premiums with the adoption of ASU 2017-08, plus the $15,088 increase in the valuation of available-for-sale securities.

On January 23, 2019, we announced that our board of directors had authorized a share repurchase program for up to $30,000 of our outstanding common stock. The repurchase program is scheduled to expire upon the earlier of our repurchase of shares of our common stock having an aggregate purchase price of $30,000, or January 23, 2020. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased 7,043 and 26,223 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price of $27.21 and $27.12 and an aggregate cost of $191 and $711, respectively.

Effects ofon Inflation and Changing Prices

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on the performance of a financial institution than the effects of general levels of inflation. Although interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services, increases in inflation generally have resulted in increased interest rates. In addition, inflation affects financial institutions’ increased cost of goods and services purchased, the cost of salaries and benefits, occupancy expense, and similar items. Inflation and related increases in interest rates generally decrease the market value of investments and loans held and may adversely affect liquidity, earnings, and shareholders’ equity. Commercial and other loan originations and refinancingsrefinancing’s tend to slow as interest rates increase, and can reduce the Company’s earnings from such activities.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company generally does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements other than approved and unfunded loans and lines and letters of credit to customers in the ordinary course of business. At March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company had unfunded loan commitments outstanding of $49,565,$57,033, unused lines of credit of $751,601,$767,631, and outstanding standby letters of credit of $40,461.$55,539.


GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the financial data included in our selected historical consolidated financial information are not measures of financial performance recognized by GAAP. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of our performance:

“Common shareholders’ equity” is defined as total shareholders’ equity at end of period less the liquidation preference value of the preferred stock;

“Tangible common shareholders’ equity” is common shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets;

“Tangible book value per share” is defined as tangible common shareholders’ equity divided by total common shares outstanding. This measure is important to investors interested in changes from period-to-period in book value per share exclusive of changes in intangible assets;

“Return on Average Tangible Common Equity” is defined as net income available to common shareholders divided by average tangible common shareholders’ equity;

“Efficiency ratio” is defined as noninterest expenses divided by our operating revenue, which is equal to net interest income plus noninterest income.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP; however, we acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, you should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other companies use.

The following reconciliation table provides a more detailed analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, even if the Company complies with the greater obligations of public companies that are not emerging growth companies, the Company may avail itself of the reduced requirements applicable to emerging growth companies from time to time in the future, so long as the Company is an emerging growth company. The Company will continue to be an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (1) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common equity securities under our Registration Statement on Form S-4, which was declared effective by the SEC on May 14, 2014; (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have $1.07 billion or more in annual revenues; (3) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); or (4) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued publicly or privately, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities. Management cannot predict if investors will find the Company’s common stock less attractive because it will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find the Company’s common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for its common stock and the Company’s stock price may be more volatile. The Company will cease to be an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2019.

Further, the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, it adopts the new or revised standard at the time public companies adopt the new or revised standard. This election is irrevocable.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The Company’s primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which possess a short term to maturity. Based upon the nature of the Company’s operations, the Company is not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk.

Management seeks to maintain profitability in both immediate and long-term earnings through funds management/interest rate risk management. Interest rate risk (sensitivity) management deals with the potential impact on earnings associated with changing interest rates using various rate change (shock) scenarios. The Company’s rate sensitivity position has an important impact on earnings. Senior management monitors the Company’s rate sensitivity position throughout each month, and the Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”) of the Bank meets on a quarterly basis to analyze the rate sensitivity position and other aspects of asset/liability management. These meetings cover the spread between the cost of funds (primarily time deposits) and interest yields generated primarily through loans and investments, rate shock analyses, liquidity and dependency positions, and other areas necessary for proper balance sheet management.

Management believes interest rate risk is best measured by earnings simulation modeling. The simulation is run using the prime rate as the base with the assumption of rates increasing 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points or decreasing 100 and 200 basis points. All rates are increased or decreased parallel to the change in prime rate. As a result of the simulation, over a 12-month time period ended March 31,September 30, 2019, net interest income was estimated to decrease 1.40%increase 1.89% and 3.63%3.31% if rates were to increase 100 basis points and 200 basis points, respectively, and was estimated to increase 0.84%decrease 0.24% and 2.58%1.20% in a 100 basis points and 200 basis points declining rate assumption, respectively. These results are in line with the Company’s guidelines for rate sensitivity.

The following chart reflects the Company’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates as indicated as of March 31,September 30, 2019.

The preceding sensitivity analysis is a modeling analysis, which changes periodically and consists of hypothetical estimates based upon numerous assumptions including interest rate levels, changes in the shape of the yield curve, prepayments on loans and securities, rates on loans and deposits, reinvestments of pay downs and maturities of loans, investments and deposits, changes in spreads between key market rates, and other assumptions. In addition, there is no input for growth or a change in asset mix. While assumptions are developed based on the current economic and market conditions, the Company cannot make any assurances as to the predictive nature of these assumptions, including how customer preferences or competitor influences might change. As market conditions vary from those assumed in the sensitivity analysis, actual results will differ. Also, these results do not include any management action that might be taken in responding to or anticipating changes in interest rates. Accordingly, the modeling analysis may not be an accurate indicator of how our net interest income will be affected by changes in interest rates as the inputs utilized by management may be inaccurate. The simulation results are one indicator of interest rate risk, and actual net interest income is largely impacted by the allocation of assets, liabilities, and product mix. The model is a tool to indicate earnings trends in given interest rate scenarios and does not indicate actual expected results.
