Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of other real estate, the valuation of debt and equity securities, the valuation of deferred tax assets and fair values of financial instruments.
The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2020,2021, and for the three months ended March 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, included herein have not been audited.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which, are, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Information about certain issued accounting standards updates is presented below. Also refer to Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, “Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance” in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional information related to previously issued accounting standards updates.
ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The guidance issued in this update simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the guidance in ASC 740 related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition for deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. ASU 2019-12 was effective for us on January 1, 2021, and did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Topic 848 amendments to provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. It provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has evaluated the effect of the pronouncement on the consolidated financial statements, noting no significant impact.
Newly Issued not yet Effective Accounting Standards
ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 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 and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available for sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is expected to be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on the Company's financial statements by developing an implementation plan to include assessment of processes, portfolio segmentation, model development, system requirements and the identification of data and resource needs, among other things. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 could result in an increase in the allowance for loan losses as a result of changing from an “incurred loss” model, which encompasses allowances for current known and inherent losses within the portfolio, to an “expected loss” model, which encompasses allowances for losses expected to be incurred over the life of the portfolio. Furthermore, ASU 2016-13 will necessitate that we establish an allowance for expected credit losses for certain debt securities and other financial assets.
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326), Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), and Financial Instruments (ASC 825). The amendments in this ASU improve the codification by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amended guidance in this ASU related to credit losses is expected to be effective for the Company in conjunction with the adoption of the standard on January 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these ASUs on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. While we are currently unable to reasonably estimate the impact of adopting these ASUs, we expect that the impact of adoption will be significantly influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of the Company's loan and securities portfolios as well as the prevailing economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date.

NOTE 3 - LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (CONTINUED)
Risk characteristics relevant to each portfolio segment are as follows:
Commercial,industrialand agricultural: The commercial, industrial and agricultural loan portfolio segment includesCompany pledged loans to commercial customers for use in normal business operations to finance working capital needs, equipment purchases or other expansion projects. Collection risk in this portfolio is driven by the creditworthiness of underlying borrowers, particularly cash flow from customers’ business operations. Commercial, industrial and agricultural loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial and industrial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may incorporate a personal guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis.
Multi-family and commercial real estate: Multi-family and commercial real estate loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial, industrial and agricultural loans, in addition to those of real estate loans. These loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate.
Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally largely dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy. The properties comprising the Company’s commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of type. This diversity helps reduce the Company’s exposure to adverse economic events that affect any single market or industry. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral, geography and risk grade criteria. The Company also utilizes third-party experts to provide insight and guidance about economic conditions and trends affecting the market areas it serves. In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans versus non-owner occupied loans. Non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans are loans secured by multifamily and commercial properties where the primary source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property (that is, loans for which 50 percent or more of the source of repayment comes from third party, nonaffiliated, rental income) or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing, or permanent financing of the property.
These loans are made to finance income-producing properties such as apartment buildings, office and industrial buildings, and retail properties. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans are loans where the primary source of repayment is the cash flow from the ongoing operations and business activities conducted by the party, or an affiliate of the party, who owns the property.
Construction and land development: Loans for non-owner-occupied real estate construction or land development are generally repaid through cash flow related to the operation, sale or refinance of the property. The Company also finances construction loans for owner-occupied properties. A portion of the Company’s construction and land development portfolio segment is comprised of loans secured by residential product types (residential land and single-family construction). With respect to construction loans to developers and builders that are secured by non-owner occupied properties that the Company may originate from time to time, the Company generally requires the borrower to have had an existing relationship with the Company and have a proven record of success. Construction and land development loans are underwritten utilizing feasibility studies, independent appraisal reviews, sensitivity analysis of absorption and lease rates, market sales activity, and financial analysis of the developers and property owners. Construction loans are generally based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the complete project. These estimates may be inaccurate. Construction loans often involve the disbursement of substantial funds with repayment substantially dependent on the success of the ultimate project. Sources of repayment for these types of loans may be pre-committed permanent loans from approved long-term lenders, sales of developed property or an interim loan commitment from the Company until permanent financing is obtained. These loans are closely monitored by on-site inspections and are considered to have higher risks than other real estate loans due to their ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, governmental regulation of real property, general economic conditions and the availability of long-term financing.

NOTE 3 - LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (CONTINUED)
1-4family residential real estate: Residential real estate loans represent loans to consumers or investors to finance a residence. These loans are typically financed on 15 to 30 year amortization terms, but generally with shorter maturities of 5 to 15 years. Many of these loans are extended to borrowers to finance their primary or secondary residence. Loans to an investor secured by a 1-4 family residence will be repaid from either the rental income from the property or from the sale of the property. This loan segment also includes closed-end home equity loans that are secured by a first or second mortgage on the borrower’s residence. This allows customers to borrow against the equity in their home. Loans in this portfolio segment are underwritten and approved based on a number of credit quality criteria including limits on maximum Loan-to-Value ("LTV"), minimum credit scores, and maximum debt to income. Real estate market values as of the time the loan is made directly affect the amount of credit extended and, in addition, changes in these residential property values impact the depth of potential losses in this portfolio segment.
1-4 family HELOC: This loan segment includes open-end home equity loans that are secured by a first or second mortgage on the borrower’s residence. This allows customers to borrow against the equity in their home utilizing a revolving line of credit. These loans are underwritten and approved based on a number of credit quality criteria including limits on maximum LTV, minimum credit scores, and maximum debt to income. Real estate market values as of the time the loan is made directly affect the amount of credit extended and, in addition, changes in these residential property values impact the depth of potential losses in this portfolio segment. Because of the revolving nature of these loans as well as the fact that many represent second mortgages, this portfolio segment can contain more risk than the amortizing 1-4 family residential real estate loans.
Consumer: The consumer loan portfolio segment includes non-real estate secured direct loans to consumers for household, family, and other personal expenditures. Consumer loans may be secured or unsecured and are usually structured with short or medium term maturities. These loans are underwritten and approved based on a number of consumer credit quality criteria including limits on maximum LTV on secured consumer loans, minimum credit scores, and maximum debt to income. Many traditional forms of consumer installment credit have standard monthly payments and fixed repayment schedules of one to five years. These loans are made with either fixed or variable interest rates that are based on specific indices. Installment loans fill a variety of needs, such as financing the purchase of an automobile, a boat, a recreational vehicle, or other large personal items, or for consolidating debt. These loans may be unsecured or secured by an assignment of title, as in an automobile loan, or by money in a bank account. In addition to consumer installment loans, this portfolio segment also includes secured and unsecured personal lines of credit as well as overdraft protection lines. Loans in this portfolio segment are sensitive to unemployment and other key consumer economic measures.

NOTE 3 - LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (CONTINUED)
The Company utilizes a risk grading system to monitor the credit quality of the Company’s commercial loan portfolio which consists of commercial industrial and agricultural,industrial, commercial real estate and construction loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 9. Grades 1 to- 5 are pass credits, grade 6 is special mention, grade 7 is substandard, grade 8 is doubtful and grade 9 is loss. A description of the risk grades are as follows:
Grade 1 - Minimal Risk (Pass)
This grade includes loans to borrowers with a strong financial position and history of profits and cash flows sufficient to service the debt. These borrowers have well defined sources of primary/secondary repayment, conservatively leveraged balance sheets and the ability to access a wide range of financing alternatives. Collateral securing these loans is negotiable, of sufficient value and in possession of the Company. Risk of loss is unlikely.
Grade 2 - High Quality (Pass)
This grade includes loans to borrowers with a strong financial condition reflecting dependable net profits and cash flows. The borrower has verifiable liquid net worth providing above average asset protection. An identifiable market exists for the collateral. Risk of loss is unlikely.
Grade 3 - Above Average (Pass)
This grade includes loans to borrowers with a balance sheet that reflects a comfortable degree of leverage and liquidity. Borrowers are profitable and have a sustained record of servicing debt. An identifiable market exists for the collateral, but liquidation could take up to one year. Risk of loss is unlikely.
Grade 4 - Average (Pass)
This grade includes loans to borrowers with a financial condition that is satisfactory and comparable to industry standards. The borrower has verifiable net worth, providing over time, average asset protection. The borrower's cash flows are sufficient to satisfy debt service requirements. Risk of loss is below average.
Grade 5 - Acceptable (Management Attention) (Pass)
This grade includes loans to borrowers whose loans are performing, but sources of repayment are not documented by the current credit analysis. There are some declining trends in margins, ratios and/or cash flow. Guarantor(s) have strong net worth(s), but assets may be concentrated in real estate or other illiquid investments. Risk of loss is average.
Grade 6 - Special Mention
Special mention assets have potential weaknesses that may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Company’s position at some future date. These assets pose elevated risk, but their weakness does not yet justify a substandard classification. Borrowers may be experiencing adverse operating trends (declining revenues or margins) or an ill proportioned balance sheet (e.g., increasing inventory without an increase in sales, high leverage, tight liquidity). Adverse economic or market conditions, such as interest rate increases or the entry of a new competitor, may also support a special mention rating. Nonfinancial reasons for rating a credit exposure special mention include management problems, pending litigation, an ineffective loan agreement or other material structural weakness, and any other significant deviation from prudent lending practices. The special mention rating is designed to identify a specific level of risk and concern about asset quality. Although a special mention asset has a higher probability of default than a pass asset, its default is not imminent.
Grade 7 - Substandard
A ‘‘substandard’’ extension of credit is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Extensions of credit so classified should have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard credits, does not have to exist in individual extensions of credit classified as substandard. Substandard assets have a high probability of payment default, or they have other well-defined weaknesses. They require supervision that is more intensive supervision by Company management. Substandard assets are generally characterized by current or expected unprofitable operations, inadequate debt service coverage, inadequate liquidity, or marginal capitalization. Repayment may depend on collateral or other credit risk mitigation.

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share amounts)
NOTE 3 - LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (CONTINUED)
Grade 8 - Doubtful
An extension of credit classified ‘‘doubtful’’ has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors that may work to the advantage of and strengthen the credit, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. Pending factors may include a proposed merger or acquisition, liquidation proceedings, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral, or refinancing plans. Generally, the doubtful classification should not extend for a long period of time because in most cases the pending factors or events that warranted the doubtful classification should be resolved either positively or negatively in a reasonable period of time.
Grade 9 - Loss
Extensions of credit classified ‘‘loss’’ are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the credit has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. Amounts classified loss should be promptly charged off. The Company will not attempt long term recoveries while the credit remains on the Company’s books. Losses should be taken in the period in which they surface as uncollectible. With loss assets, the underlying borrowers are often in bankruptcy, have formally suspended debt repayments, or have otherwise ceased normal business operations. Once an asset is classified loss, there is little prospect of collecting either its principal or interest.
Loans not falling in the criteria above are considered to be pass-rated loans.
Non-commercial purpose loans are initially assigned a default loan grade of 99 (Pass) and are risk graded (Grade 6, 7, or 8) according to delinquency status when applicable.

T
he Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020. Section 4013 of the CARES Act provides that financial institutions may elect to account for loan modifications occurring between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of December 31, 2020 and the 60th day after the end of the COVID-19 national emergency declared by President Trump, which are due to COVID-19 and where the borrower was current on contractual payments as of December 31, 2019, as not TDRs. Additionally, on April 7, 2020, federal banking regulators issued an Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications by Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus (Revised), which replaced a prior interagency statement predating the CARES Act. The revised interagency statement encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers that may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations because of the effects of COVID-19. It also addresses loan modifications not meeting the criteria set forth in Section 4013 of the CARES Act or for which financial institutions elect not to apply Section 4013. With respect to these loan modifications, the revised interagency statement provides that short-term (e.g. six month) modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current on their contractual payments at the time of implementation of a modification program are not TDRs

AtRestructured Loans
As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had recorded investments in troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) of $3,938 and $4,236, respectively. The Company did not allocate a specific allowance for those loans at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and there were no commitments to lend additional amounts. Loans accounted for as TDR include modifications from original terms such as those due to bankruptcy proceedings, certain modifications of amortization periods or extended suspension of principal payments due to customer financial difficulties. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. Loans accounted for as TDR are individually evaluated for impairment.
There were 0 TDR modifications in the three months ending March 31, 2021 or March 31, 2020.
Programs as part of COVID-19 Relief
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was signed into law in March 2020 and subsequently amended, along with subsequent regulatory guidance encouraged financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of COVID-19. Additionally, the CARES Act further provides that a qualified loan modification is exempt by law from classification as a TDR as defined by U.S. GAAP beginning March 1, 2020 until the earlier of January 1, 2022 or the date that is 60 days after the date on which the national emergency concerning the COVID-19 outbreak terminates. The following table outlines the Company's recorded investment and percentage of loans held for investment by class of financing receivable for Company executed deferrals that remain on deferral at March 31, 2021, in connection with Company COVID-19 relief programs. These deferrals typically ranged from sixty to ninety days per deferral and were not considered TDRs under the interagency regulatory guidance or the CARES Act.. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had a total of $597,327 loans previously deferred that returned to normal payment status.

Construction, Land Development and Farmland | | 11,792 | | | 0.52 | % |
Total | | $ | 33,121 | | | 1.46 | % |
The CARES Act provides over $2.0 trillion in emergency economic relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act authorized the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) to administer new loan programs including, but not limited to, the guarantee of loans under a new 7(a) loan program called the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). As of March 31, 2021, the Company had 588 PPP loans outstanding amounting to $41.9 million which are included in the commercial, industrial, and agricultural segment. PPP loans do not have a corresponding allowance as they are fully guaranteed by the SBA. Fees range from 1% to 5% of the loan and are deferred and amortized over the life of the loan. As PPP loans are forgiven, any other real estate.deferred loan fee or cost is recognized related to each individual loan. As of March 31, 2021, $41.5 million in PPP loans had been forgiven cumulatively since the CARES Act’s inception. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, $1,042 in fees and interest was recognized in earnings.
NOTE 4 - LEASES
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 842. The Company elected the prospective application approach provided by ASU 2018-11 and did not adjust prior periods for ASC 842. Leases with initial terms of less than one parcel of property held at December 31, 2019 with a value of $750 was sold for $764. Additionally, at March 31, 2020, there were three real estate loans to two borrowers with related balances totaling $906 in the process of foreclosure. At December 31, 2019,year are not recorded on the balance sheet.
The Company’s long-term lease agreements are classified as operating leases. Certain of other real estate was $750these leases offer the option to extend the lease term and the Company has included such extensions in its calculation of one parcelthe lease liabilities to the extent the options are reasonably assured of other real estate. Duringbeing 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.
The implementation of the three months ended March 31, 2019, $943 was added to other real estate. Expensesnew standard resulted in recognition of a right-of-use asset of $12.0 million and a lease liability of $11.9 million at the date of adoption, which is related to other real estate totaled $6the Company’s lease of premises used in operations.

NOTE 5 - DERIVATIVES
The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements.
Interest Rate Swaps Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
Interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $160,000 as of March 31, 2021 were designated as cash flow hedges of certain short-term interest-bearing liabilities and subordinated debentures, which are fully effective. As such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income. Therefore, the aggregate fair value of the swaps is recorded in other assets (liabilities) with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) would be reclassified to current earnings should the hedges no longer be considered effective. The Company expects the hedges to remain fully effective during the remaining terms of the swap agreements. NaN gains or losses were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into net income during the periods presented.

NOTE 5 - FAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Financial accounting standards relating to fair value measurements establish a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2 Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
•Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
•Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
•Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
•Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by the observable market data by correlation or other means.
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
An asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

NOTE 5 - FAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Securities available for sale: The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value 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). The Company obtains fair value measurements for securities available for sale from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, cash flows and reference data, including market research publications, among other things.
Interest rate swaps: The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined based on discounted future cash flows.
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include the following:
Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on the present value of expected payments using the loan’s effective rate as the discount rate or 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 appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
Other Real Estate: The fair value of other real estate is generally based on recent real estate appraisals less estimated disposition cost. These appraisals may use 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 appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company’s valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.
Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:
Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and payable, restricted equity securities, federal funds sold or purchased, demand deposits, and variable rate loans or deposits that re-price frequently and fully. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent re-pricing or re-pricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. Fair value of debt is based on discounted cash flows using current rates for similar financing.
Due to COVID- 19 disruption of the market for sales of mortgage loans at March 31, 2020, the Company migrated the fair value for mortgage loans held for sale from Level 2 to Level 3. It is management's estimate that as of that date the fair value of those loans approximated the carrying value.

NOTE 6 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In 2006, the Boardboard of Directorsdirectors and shareholders of the Bank (then known as "Commerce Union Bank") approved the Commerce Union Bank Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provided for the granting of stock options for up to 625,000 shares of Bank common stock to employees and organizers and authorized the issuance of Bank common stock upon the exercise of such options. As part of the Bank's reorganization into a holding company corporate structure in 2012, all Bank options were replaced with Commerce Union Bancshares, Inc. (now known as "Reliant Bancorp, Inc.") options with no change in terms.
On March 10, 2015, the shareholders of the CompanyReliant Bancorp (then known as "Commerce Union Bancshares, Inc.") approved the Commerce Union Bancshares, Inc. Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan (the “A&R Plan”), which permits the grant of awards with respect to up to 1,250,000 shares of CompanyReliant Bancorp common stock in the form of stock options. As part of the merger of Commerce Union Bank and Reliant Bank in 2015, all outstanding stock options of Reliant Bank were converted to stock options of CommerceReliant Bancorp (then known as "Commerce Union Bancshares, Inc. (now known as "Reliant Bancorp, Inc.") under the A&R Plan. Under the A&R Plan, stock option awards may be granted in the form of incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options, and are generally exercisable for up to 10 years following the date such option awards are granted. Exercise prices of incentive stock options must be equal to or greater than the fair market value of theReliant Bancorp's common stock on the grant date.
On June 18, 2015, the shareholders of CommerceReliant Bancorp (then known as "Commerce Union Bancshares, Inc. (now known as "Reliant Bancorp, Inc.") approved the Commerce Union Bancshares, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, which reserves up to 900,000 shares of Reliant Bancorp common stock to be subject to awards under the plan, including awards in the form of stock options, restricted stock grants, performance-based awards, and other awards denominated or payable by reference to or based on or related to Reliant Bancorp common stock.

NOTE 7 - REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Company and the Bank isare subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. The Company falls under the Small Bank Holding Company and Savings and Loan Holding Company Policy Statement (the “Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement”), which is generally applicable to bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $3 billion, and is, therefore, not subject to consolidated capital requirements. 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.action or affect the amount of dividends the Company and the Bank may distribute. Management believes that as of March 31, 2020,2021, the Company and the Bank meetsmet all capital adequacy requirements to which it isthey were subject.
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 only 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.
In July 2013, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) approved final rules that substantially amended the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to the Company and the Bank. The final rules implement the regulatory capital reforms of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision reflected in “Basel III: A Global Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” ("Basel III") and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

NOTE 7 - REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS (CONTINUED)
Under these rules, the leverage and risk-based capital ratios of bank holding companies (other than bank holding companies that
fall under the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement and are not subject to consolidated capital requirements) may not be lower than the leverage and risk-based capital ratios for insured depository institutions. The final rules implementing Basel III became effective on January 1, 2015, and include new minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios and a new common equity tier 1 ratio. In addition, these rules refine the definition of what constitutes capital for purposes of calculating those ratios, including the definitions of Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 capital.
Basel III establishes a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% which began phasing in on January 1, 2016, at a rate of 0.625% per year. The buffer became fully phased in on January 1, 2019. An institution is subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if capital levels fall below minimum levels plus the buffer.
Capital amounts and ratios for the CompanyReliant Bancorp and the Bank (required) are presented below as of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020.

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT REPORTINGFAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Financial accounting standards relating to fair value measurements establish a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
TheLevel 1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has 2 reportable business segments: retail banking and residential mortgage banking. Segment information is derived from the internal reporting system utilized by management. Revenues and expenses for segments reflect those which can be specifically identified and have been assigned based on internally developed allocation methods. Financial results have been presented,ability to the extent practicable, as if each segment operated on a stand-alone basis.access.
Retail Banking provides deposit and lending servicesLevel 2 Inputs to consumer and business customers within our primary geographic markets. Our customers are serviced through branch locations, ATMs, online banking, and mobile banking.
Residential Mortgage Banking originates traditional first lien residential mortgage loans and first lien home equity lines of credit throughout the United States. The traditional first lien residential mortgage loans are typically underwritten to government agency standards and sold to third-party secondary market mortgage investors. The home equity lines of credit are typically sold to participating banks or other investor groups and are underwritten to their standards.
During the second quarter of 2019, RMV began acquiring loans from approved correspondent lenders and reselling them in the secondary market. These loans are not FNMA or FHLMC qualified loans, and are of higher risk, such as, jumbo loans or senior position home equity lines of credit.valuation methodology include:

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT REPORTING (CONTINUED)•Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
•Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
•Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
•Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by the observable market data by correlation or other means.
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
An asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Securities available for sale: The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value 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). The Company obtains fair value measurements for securities available for sale from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, cash flows and reference data, including market research publications, among other things.
Interest rate swaps: The fair values of interest rate swaps and fair value hedges are determined based on discounted future cash flows.
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include the following:
Impaired Loans: The fair value of an impaired loan with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on the present value of expected payments using the loan’s effective rate as the discount rate or 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 appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
Other Real Estate and Repossessed Assets: The fair value of other real estate and repossessed assets is generally based on recent appraisals less estimated disposition cost. These appraisals may use 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 appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
The following presents summarized resultsmethods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of operations fornet realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company’s business segments forvaluation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the periods indicated:

The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements as partuse of its asset liability management strategydifferent methodologies or assumptions to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount ofdetermine the interest rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements.
Interest Rate Swaps Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
Interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $160,000 as of March 31, 2020 were designated as cash flow hedges of certain short-term interest-bearing liabilities and subordinated debentures, which are fully effective. As such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income. Therefore, the aggregate fair value of the swaps is recordedcertain financial instruments could result in other assets (liabilities) with changes ina different estimate of fair value recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).

NOTE 13 - LEASES11 – INCOME TAXES
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 842. The Company elected the prospective application approach provided by ASU 2018-11 and did not adjust prior periods for ASC 842. The Company also elected certain practical expedients within the standard and consistent with such elections did not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, did not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and did not reassess any initial direct costs for existing leases. The implementation of the new standard resulted in recognition of a right-of-use asset of $12.0 million and a lease liability of $11.9 million at the date of adoption, which is related to the Company’s lease of premises used in operations. The Company used a discount rate of 4.5% in determining the right-of-use asset and lease liability. The Company elected not to restate comparative periods prior to adoption.

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share amounts)
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 of these 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 assured 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.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $707 and $687 of lease expense, respectively.
NOTE 14 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Information about certain issued accounting standards updates is presented below. Also refer to Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies “Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for additional information related to previously issued accounting standards updates.
ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” implements a common revenue standard that clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue. The principle element of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this principle, an entity should apply the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 was originally going to be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018; however, the FASB recently issued ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Deferral of the Effective Date" which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to January 1, 2019. Revenue is comprised of net interest income on financial assets and financial liabilities, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09, and noninterest income. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company.
ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." ASU 2016-01, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to 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 on 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 (viii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferredIncome tax asset related to available-for-sale securities. ASU 2016-01 became effective for us on January 1, 2019 and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.
ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” ASU 2016-02 will require lessees to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for us on January 1, 2020 and will require transition using a modified retrospective approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. We estimate that the effect of implementing this pronouncement will result in right to use assets of $11,973 and a similar corresponding liability, using the remaining contractual lease periods.

NOTE 14 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)
ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 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 and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available for sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is expected to be effective on January 1, 2023. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on our financial statements. We are currently developing an implementation plan to include assessment of processes, portfolio segmentation, model development, system requirements and the identification of data and resource needs, among other things. The adoption of the ASU 2016-13 could result in an increase in the allowance for loan losses as a result of changing from an “incurred loss” model, which encompasses allowances for current known and inherent losses within the portfolio, to an “expected loss” model, which encompasses allowances for losses expected to be incurred over the life of the portfolio. Furthermore, ASU 2016-13 will necessitate that we establish an allowance for expected credit losses for certain debt securities and other financial assets. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326), Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), and Financial Instruments (ASC 825). The amendments in the ASU improve the Codification by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amended guidance in this ASU related to the credit losses will be effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these ASUs on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. While we are currently unable to reasonably estimate the impact of adopting these ASUs, we expect that the impact of adoption will be significantly influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of our loan and securities portfolios as well as the prevailing economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date.
ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test which required entities to compute the implied fair value of goodwill. Under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2021, with earlier adoption permitted and is not currently expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements as it simplifies the test of impairment of goodwill.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - "Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." The amendments in this update provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. It provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the reference rate reform on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 15 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
ASC 855, Subsequent Events, establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. Reliant Bancorp, Inc. evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after March 31, 2020 through the date of the issued financial statements.
On October 22, 2019, the Company, PG Merger Sub, Inc. ("Merger sub'), a Tennessee corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and FABK, a Tennessee corporation and the parent company of FAB. a Tennessee-chartered commercial bank, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “FABK Agreement”) providing for Reliant Bancorp to acquire FABK and FAB. Reliant Bancorp completed its acquisition of FABK and FAB effective April 1, 2020.
In accordance with the terms of the FABK Agreement, on April 1, 2020, (i) Merger Sub merged with and into FABK (the “FABK Merger”), with FABK being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reliant Bancorp, and (ii) immediately following the FABK Merger, FABK merged with and into Reliant Bancorp (the “Second Step Merger”), with Reliant Bancorp being the surviving corporation. Additionally, immediately following the Second Step Merger, FAB merged with and into Reliant Bank, with Reliant Bank being the surviving bank.
As consideration for the FABK Merger, each outstanding share of FABK common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “FABK Common Stock”), other than certain excluded shares, was at the effective time of the FABK Merger converted into the right to receive (i) 1.17 shares of Company Common Stock and (ii) $3.00 in cash, without interest. In lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of Company Common Stock, Reliant Bancorp agreed to pay cash in lieu of fractional shares based on the volume-weighted average closing price per share of Company Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on and including March 30, 2020 (calculated as $11.74). Based on the March 31, 2020 closing price for Company Common Stock of $11.27 per share and 4,012,365 shares of FABK Common Stock outstanding on March 31, 2020, the consideration for the FABK Merger was approximately $65,314, in the aggregate, or $16.28 per share of FABK Common Stock.
FABK is a Tennessee-based full-service community banking organization headquartered in Clarksville, Tennessee. FAB operated branch offices in Montgomery, Davidson and Williamson Tennessee and operated a loan production office in Knoxville, Tennessee primarily originating manufactured housing loans.
Former FABK board members William Lawson Mabry and Michael E. Wallace joined Reliant Bancorp, Inc.'s and Reliant Bank's boards of directors upon completion of the transaction.
The Company is currently determining the initial accounting for this business combination including completing valuations of loans, premises and equipment, intangible assets, deposits, debt, and other liabilities.
In December 2019, news began to surface regarding a pandemic in China, known as the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19. In January 2020, the United States restricted entry to anyone traveling from China. In February 2020, the pandemic spread broadly and swiftly throughout Europe and the Middle East, particularly in Italy and Iran. Cases began to surface in the United States in February 2020 and accelerated in early March 2020. The Federal Reserve reduced the overnight federal funds rate by 50 basis points on March 3, 2020 and by another 100 basis points on March 15, 2020 and announced the resumption of quantitative easing. During the week of March 9, 2020, individual states began implementing restrictions and promoting “social distancing”. These restrictions included closure of schools, restrictions on the number of public gatherings, encouragement of work at home arrangements and other courses of action. Congress began passing a number of measures in late March 2020 and are continuing to approve similar legislation, designed to infuse cash into the economy to offset the negative impacts of business closings and restrictions. The COVID-19 pandemic is a highly unusual, unprecedented and evolving public health and economic crisis and may have a negative material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, the negative consequences of the unprecedented economic shutdown nationally and in Tennessee and bordering states is likely to result in a higher level of delinquencies and loan losses and require additional provisions for loan losses, which will have a negative impact on our results of operations.

NOTE 15 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (CONTINUED)
The CARES Act included an allocation of $349 billion for loans to be issued by financial institutions through the SBA. This program is known as the PPP. Loans issued under the PPP program are forgivable, in whole or in part, if the proceeds are used for payroll and other permitted purposes in accordance with the requirements of the PPP. These loans carry a fixed rate of 1.00% and a term of two years, if not forgiven, in whole or in part. Payments are deferred for the first six months of the loan. The loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. The SBA pays the originating bank a processing fee ranging from 1% to 5%, based on the size of the loan. The SBA began accepting submissions for these PPP loans on Friday, April 3, 2020. Through April 16, 2020, the date the SBA reached the limit of funds available to disburse under this program, we had received SBA authorizations for PPP loans totaling $35,600 and related fees of $1,200. Participation in the PPP will likely have an impact on our asset mix and net interest margin for the remainder of 2020. Subsequent to March 31, 2020 and in connection with the second tranche of PPP funds, the Company has approvals for $53,704 in such loans and related fees of $2,202. At March 31, 2020, we had $181,300 in federal funds lines available and $359,400 of available borrowing capacity from our correspondent banks. In addition, the Federal Reserve has implemented a liquidity facility available to financial institutions participating in the PPP. As such, the Company believes it has sufficient liquidity sources to fund all pending PPP loans and to continue to provide this important service to local businesses as additional funds are appropriated for the PPP.
Other than what is noted above, no other events meeting the requirements of disclosure arose during the time period from March 31, 2020 through the date of the issued financial statements.

Amounts in the narrative are shown in thousands, except for economic and demographic information, numbers of shares, per share amounts and as otherwise noted.
Acquisition of parent company of CBT
Effective January 1, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of TCB Holdings, pursuant to the TCB Holdings Agreement, by and among the Company, TCB Holdings, and CBT. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, TCB Holdings merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving corporation. Immediately following the TCB Holdings Transaction, CBT merged with and into Reliant Bank, with Reliant Bank continuing as the surviving banking corporation. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time of the TCB Holdings Transaction, each outstanding share of TCB Holdings common stock, par value $1.00 per share (other than certain excluded shares), was converted into and canceled in exchange for the right to receive (i) $17.13 in cash, without interest, and (ii) 0.769 shares of Company's common stock. The Company issued 811,210 shares of Company Common Stock and paid approximately $18,073 in cash, in respect of shares of TCB Holdings common stock as consideration for the TCB Holdings Transaction. The Company did not issue fractional shares of Company Common Stock in connection with the TCB Holdings Transaction, but paid cash in lieu of fractional shares based on the volume weighted average closing price per share of the Company Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on and including December 30, 2019 (calculated as $22.36). At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase TCB Holdings common stock was canceled in exchange for a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (i) $34.25 minus the per share exercise price of the option multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of TCB Holdings common stock subject to the option (to the extent not previously exercised). The Company paid aggregate consideration payable to holders of unexercised options of approximately $430. All shares of Company’s common stock outstanding prior to the merger were unaffected by the TCB Holdings Transaction.
Acquisition of parent company of FAB
On October 22, 2019, the Company, Merger Sub, and FABK entered into the FABK agreement providing for the Company to acquire FABK and FAB. The Company completed its acquisition of FABK and FAB effective April 1, 2020.

The accounting principles we follow and our methods of applying these principles conform to U.S. GAAP and with general practices within the banking industry. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The following is a brief summary of the more significant policies.
Recent Events – COVID-19 Pandemic
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in China, and has since spread to a number of other countries, including the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and the United States declared a National Public Health Emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level of economic activity in our markets. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the State of Tennessee, and most other states, have taken preventative or protective actions, such as imposing restrictions on travel and business operations, advising or requiring individuals to limit or forego their time outside of their homes, and ordering temporary closures of businesses that have been deemed to be non-essential.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is fluid and continues to evolve, adversely affecting many of the Bank’s clients. The COVID-19 pandemic and its associated impacts on trade (including supply chains and export levels), travel, employee productivity, unemployment, consumer spending, and other economic activities has resulted in less economic activity, lower equity market valuations and significant volatility and disruption in financial markets, and has had an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The ultimate extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations is currently uncertain and will depend on various developments and other factors, including, among others, the duration and scope of the pandemic, as well as governmental, regulatory and private sector responses to the pandemic, and the associated impacts on the economy, financial markets and our customers, employees and vendors.
Our business, financial condition and results of operations generally rely upon the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans, the value of collateral underlying our secured loans, and demand for loans and other products and services we offer, which are highly dependent on the business environment in our primary markets where we operate and in the United States as a whole. The COVID-19 pandemic has begun to have a significant impact on our business and operations. As part of our efforts to exercise social distancing, in March 2020, we closed all of our banking lobbies and are conducting most of our business at this time through drive-thru tellers and through electronic and online means. To support the health and well-being of our employees, a significant percentage of our workforce is working from home. We are focused on servicing the financial needs of our commercial and consumer clients.
We are an SBA-approved lender and have begun processing customer applications under the PPP, established under the CARES Act.
At March 31, 2020, our non-performing assets were not materially impacted by the economic pressures of COVID-19. We are closely monitoring credit risk and our exposure to increased loan losses resulting from the impact of COVID-19 on our commercial and other clients.
We are also monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operations and value of our investments. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize further impairments on the securities we hold as well as reductions in other comprehensive income. We cannot currently determine the ultimate impact of the pandemic on the long-term value of our portfolio.
The market for the sale of mortgage loans has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic on the operations and value of our investments. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting the sale of these types of loans, we may be required to recognize an impairment on mortgage loans held for sale.
As of March 31, 2020, all of our capital ratios, and our subsidiary bank’s capital ratios, were in excess of all regulatory requirements. While we believe that we have sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, our reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by future credit losses.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting principles we follow and our methods of applying these principles conform to GAAP and with general practices within the banking industry. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The following is a brief summary of the more significant policies.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods presented include the accounts of Reliant Bancorp, the Bank, TRUPS, Holdings, and RMV. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As described in Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements, effective on January 1, 2020, Reliant Bancorp and TCB Holdings merged.
During 2011, the Bank and another entity organized RMV. Under the RMV operating agreement, the non-controlling member receives 70% of the cash flow distributions of RMV, and the Bank receives 30% of the cash flow distributions, once the non-controlling member recovers its capital contributions to RMV. The non-controlling member is required to fund RMV’s losses in arrears via additional capital contributions to RMV. As of March 31, 2020, RMV's cumulative losses to date totaled $14,399. RMV will have to generate net income of at least this amount before the Bank will participate in future income distributions.
Purchased Loans
The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses on purchased loans based on credit deterioration subsequent to the acquisition date. In accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations, because we recorded all acquired loans at fair value as of the date of the TCB Holdings Transaction with the Company, we did not establish an allowance for loan losses on any of the loans we purchased as of the acquisition date as any credit deterioration evident in the loans was included in the determination of the acquisition date fair values. For purchased credit-impaired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, management is required to establish an allowance for loan losses subsequent to the date of acquisition by re-estimating expected cash flows on these loans on a quarterly basis, with any decline in expected cash flows due to a credit triggering impairment recorded as provision for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses established is the excess of the loan’s carrying value over the present value of projected future cash flows, discounted at the current accounting yield of the loan or the fair value of collateral (less estimated costs to sell) for collateral dependent loans. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. While the determination of specific cash flows involves estimates, each estimate is unique to the individual loan, and none is individually significant. For non-purchased credit-impaired loans acquired in the TCB Holdings Transaction and that are accounted for under ASC 310-20, the historical loss estimates are based on the historical losses experienced by the Bank for loans with similar characteristics as those acquired other than purchased credit-impaired loans. The Bank records an allowance for loan losses only when the calculated amount exceeds the remaining credit mark established at acquisition.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses ("allowance") is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using historical loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, current economic conditions (national and local), and other factors such as changes in interest rates, portfolio concentrations, changes in the experience, ability, and depth of the lending function, levels of and trends in charged-off loans, recoveries, past-due loans and volume and severity of classified loans. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.
A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. All classified loans and loans on nonaccrual status are individually evaluated for impairment. Factors considered in determining if a loan is impaired include the borrower’s ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, the risk rating of the loan and economic conditions affecting the borrower’s industry, among other things. 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 (less estimated costs to sell) of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless the principal amount is deemed fully collectible, in which case interest is recognized on a cash basis. When recognition of interest income on a cash basis is appropriate, the amount of income recognized is limited to what would have been accrued on the remaining principal balance at the contractual rate. Cash payments received over this limit, and not applied to reduce the loan's remaining principal balance, are recorded as recoveries of prior charge-offs until these charge-offs have been fully recovered.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note to our consolidated financial statements. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THETHREE MONTHSENDED MARCH 31, 2020AND 2019
Effective January 1, 2020, Reliant Bancorp completed the acquisition of TCB Holdings. For more information on the acquisition of TCB Holdings, please see “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Acquisition of parent company of CBT.”
As a result of the TCB Transaction on January 1, 2020, the Company:
•increased consolidated total assets from $1,898.5 million to $2,157.1 million;
•increased total loans from $1,410.0 million to $1,581.5 million;
•increased total deposits from $1,583.8 million to $1,794.3 million; and
•expanded its employee base from 300 to 321 full time equivalent employees.
Earnings
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders amounted to $(215), or $(0.02) per basic share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $3,824, or $0.34 per basic share, for the same period in 2019. Diluted net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders was $(0.02) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $0.33 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The major components contributing to the change when compared to the prior year are an increase of 53.8% in noninterest expense (mainly driven by merger expenses) for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and an increase of $2,900 in provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. These and other components of earnings are discussed further below.

Net interest income represents the amount by which interest earned on various earning assets exceeds interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities and is the most significant component of our revenues. The following table sets forth the amount of our average balances, interest income or interest expense for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the average interest rate for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, net interest spread and net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and 2019 (dollars in thousands):

Table Assumptions—Average loan balances are inclusive of nonperforming loans. Interest income and yields computed on tax-exempt instruments are on a tax equivalent basis including a state tax credit included in loan yields of $304 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $300 for the same period in 2019. Net interest spread is calculated as the yields realized on interest-bearing assets less the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is the result of net interest income calculated on a tax-equivalent basis divided by average interest earning assets for the period. Changes in net interest income are attributed to either changes in average balances (volume change) or changes in average rates (rate change) for earning assets and sources of funds on which interest is received or paid. Volume change is calculated as change in volume times the previous rate while rate change is change in rate times the previous volume. Changes not due solely to volume or rate changes have been allocated to volume change and rate change in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each category.
Analysis—For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis of approximately $17,814, which resulted in a net interest margin (net interest income divided by the average balance of interest earning assets) of 3.61%. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded net interest income on a tax equivalent basis of approximately $14,221, which resulted in a net interest margin of 3.63%.
Our year-over-year average loan volume increased by approximately 30.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 and was mainly driven by the merger with CBT. Our combined loan and loan fee yield decreased from 5.39% to 5.23% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The decreased yield for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is primarily attributable to a 13 basis points decrease in contractual loan yields including adjustment for purchase accounting accretion, a two basis points decrease in state tax credits, and a one basis point decrease in loan fees.
Our tax-equivalent yield on tax-exempt investments was 3.56% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 3.86% and for the same period in 2019. Our year-over-year average tax-exempt investment volume decreased by 13.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 due to investment sales in the fourth quarter of 2019. Our year-over-year average taxable securities volume increased by 3.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.
Our cost of funds decreased to 1.30% from 1.44% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease in our cost of funds was primarily driven by an across the board decrease in the cost of our interest bearing deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities due to the recent decrease in rates by the Federal Reserve. We experienced a 47.8% increase in our average noninterest bearing deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019 which is mainly attributable to the merger with CBT.
The Bank strives to maintain a strong net interest margin that is insulated from changes in market interest rates. Our net interest margin, while generally considered fairly neutral, is currently subject to slightly contract in a rising rate environment and slightly expand in a falling rate environment. In the lowering interest rate environment that we anticipate, the shorter durations of our non-core funding sources are expected to contribute to interest expense savings that are expected to be slightly higher than (i) the anticipated loss of interest income likely to be driven by certain variable rate loans and investments repricing and (ii) the increased expenses to be incurred on our interest rate swaps. The Company has interest rate floors on certain loans and those floors will mitigate further declines in interest rates.
Provision for Loan Losses
We recorded a provision of $2,900 for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in provision expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 can be primarily attributed2021 totaled $2,980, compared to the recent downturn in the economy due to COVID-19 while a portion is due to the growing loan portfolio. See “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysisbenefit of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Comparison of Balance Sheets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 - Allowance for Loan Losses” included herein for further analysis of the provision for loan losses.
Noninterest Income
Our noninterest income is composed of several components, some of which vary significantly between periods. The following is a summary of our noninterest income$910 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and 2019 (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, | | | Percent Increase | | | | |
| 2020 | 2019 | | (Decrease) | | | | |
Noninterest Income | | | | | | | | |
Service charges and fees on deposits | $ | 1,208 | | $ | 884 | | | 36.7 | % | | | | |
Gains on mortgage loans sold, net | 1,573 | | 560 | | | 180.9 | % | | | | |
Securities gains, net | — | | 131 | | | (100.0) | % | | | | |
Gain on sale of other real estate | 14 | | — | | | 100.0 | % | | | | |
Gain on disposal of premises and equipment | 9 | | — | | | — | % | | | | |
Other noninterest income: | | | | | | | | |
Bank-owned life insurance | 295 | | 279 | | | 5.7 | % | | | | |
Brokerage revenue | 32 | | 11 | | | 190.9 | % | | | | |
Miscellaneous noninterest income | 151 | | 73 | | | 106.8 | % | | | | |
Total other noninterest income | 478 | | 363 | | | 31.7 | % | | | | |
Total noninterest income | $ | 3,282 | | $ | 1,938 | | | 69.3 | % | | | | |
The most significant reasons for the changes in total noninterest income during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 are the fluctuation in gains on mortgage loans sold, net and the increase in service charges. These and other factors impacting noninterest income are discussed further below.
Service charges and fees on deposit accounts have increased due to the TCB Holdings Transaction and the concentrated effort in attracting noninterest-bearing deposits, with the majority of the 36.7% increase deriving from an increase in our debit card fees.
Securities gains and losses often fluctuate from period to period and can sometimes be attributable to various balance sheet risk strategies. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company sold securities acquired from the TCB Holdings Transaction totaling $56,336 at no gain. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company sold securities classified as available for sale totaling $10,558 with a gain of $131.
Generally, mortgage-related revenue increases in lower interest rate environments and more robust housing markets and decreases in rising interest rate environments and more challenging housing markets. Mortgage-related revenue will fluctuate from quarter to quarter as the rate environment changes and as changes occur with our mortgage operations including but not limited to the number of loan originators employed and the channels available for loan sales of RMV’s products in the secondary markets. Gains on mortgage loans sold, net, amounted to $1,573 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $560 for the same period in the prior year. The increase in gains for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to 2019 is primarily driven by the increase in volume in the RMV's correspondent lending channel. As discussed further in the notes to our consolidated financial statements, gains on mortgage loans sold are generally recognized at the time of a loan sale corresponding to the transfer of risk. The secondary market for the sale of non-qualified mortgage loans experienced a disruption related to the COVID-19 pandemic at March 31, 2020. As a result, the Company's held-for-sale portfolio increased by $32.9 million from December 31, 2019. Management expects this market to recover. Also, as of March 31, 2020, purchases of loans from correspondents have been halted until additional secondary market data is available.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, there was a gain of $14 due to the sale of other real estate compared to no gain in the same period in 2019.
Noninterest income also includes appreciation in the cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance, which was $295 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $279 for the same period in 2019. The assets that support these policies are administered by the life insurance carriers and the income we receive (i.e., increases or decreases in the cash surrender value of the policies) is dependent upon the returns the insurance carriers are able to earn on the underlying investments that support the policies. Earnings on these policies generally are not expected to be taxable.
Noninterest Expense
The following is a summary of our noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, | | | Percent Increase | | | | |
| 2020 | 2019 | | (Decrease) | | | | |
Noninterest Expense | | | | | | | | |
Salaries and employee benefits | $ | 9,237 | | $ | 7,265 | | | 27.1 | % | | | | |
Occupancy | 1,486 | | 1,352 | | | 9.9 | % | | | | |
Information technology | 1,819 | | 1,410 | | | 29.0 | % | | | | |
Advertising and public relations | 353 | | 254 | | | 39.0 | % | | | | |
Audit, legal and consulting | 478 | | 796 | | | (39.9) | % | | | | |
Federal deposit insurance | 336 | | 195 | | | 72.3 | % | | | | |
Merger expenses | 4,186 | | 2 | | | 209200.0 | % | | | | |
Other operating | 1,703 | | 1,472 | | | 15.7 | % | | | | |
Total noninterest expense | $ | 19,598 | | $ | 12,746 | | | 53.8 | % | | | | |
Noninterest expense increased by $6,852, or 53.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 due in large part to an increase in merger expenses and salaries and employee benefits. The three-month period ended March 31, 2020 has been impacted by the TCB Holdings Transaction that has resulted in adds to staff, additional vendor relationships and investments in technology. These and other factors impacting noninterest expense are discussed further below.
Salaries and employee benefits increased by $1,972 or 27.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. This increase is primarily attributable to the TCB Holdings Transaction, and year over year growth causing an increase in full-time equivalent by 41. We believe the staffing level normalized by the end of the first quarter but will increase again in the second quarter as we close another merger.
Occupancy costs increased $134 or 9.9%, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 mainly due to the TCB Holdings Transaction, as well as, the additional leases for mortgage production offices in Memphis and Chattanooga, Tennessee and two offices in Little Rock, Arkansas, two in Hot Springs Arkansas, and one in Crossett, Arkansas which opened during August 2019 and with one of the Hot Springs Arkansas offices subsequently closing in March 2020.
Information technology costs increased by $409 or 29.0% when comparing the three months ended March 31, 2020 to the comparable period in 2019. This increase is mainly attributable to increased costs due to increasing volume of accounts and transactions as well as our continued investment in information security and other technology, and our increase in locations mentioned in the previous paragraph. Both the volume and location increases are primarily due to the TCB Holdings Transaction and the expansion of RMV.
Advertising and public relations costs increased by $99 or 39.0% when comparing the three months ended March 31, 2020 to the same period in 2019. Increased costs were primarily attributable to increased promotional expenses and advertising for RMV.
Audit, legal and consulting costs decreased by $318 or 39.9%, when comparing to the three months ended March 31, 2020 to the same period in 2019. This fluctuation is mainly attributable to the decrease of legal and consulting fees incurred by RMV and partially offset by increased fees related to special projects by the Company.
Our FDIC deposit insurance expense is based on our outstanding liabilities for the period multiplied by a factor determined by the FDIC, mainly driven by our most recent regulatory rating and certain financial performance factors. Our FDIC expense increased by $141 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. This increase is primarily the result of our increase in deposits due to the TCB Holdings Transaction.
Merger-related expenses increased by $4,184 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019. These costs are considered one-time expenses which for 2020 are associated with the TCB Holdings Transaction and the FABK Transaction. We expect merger expenses to continue to be incurred until the two mergers and conversion are complete.
Other operating expenses increased by $231 or 15.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019 mainly due to an increase in amortization of core deposit intangibles due to the TCB Holdings Transaction.
Income Taxes
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded consolidated income tax expense (benefit) of $(910) compared to $372 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company files separate federal tax returns for RMV and the bank segment. The taxable income or losses of the mortgage banking operations are included in the respective returns of the Bank and non-controlling member for federal purposes.
Our income tax expense (benefit) attributable to shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020, reflects an effective income tax rate of 79.6% (exclusive of a tax benefit from our mortgage banking operations of $69 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, on pre-tax losses of $1,045 for the three months ended March 31, 2020), compared to 11.2% for the same period in 2019 (exclusive of a tax benefit of $108 on pre-tax losses of $1,651, from our mortgage banking operations for the comparable period in 2019). Additionally, our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is higher than the same period in 2019 primarily due to the large amount of merger expenses in 2020 and the increase in provision, which reduced taxable income to a loss for the quarter and increased the proportion of tax-exempt income to net loss. The Company's tax exempt income from securities, loans and earnings from bank-owned life insurance contracts as well as state tax credits related to loans to encourage economic development impact the effective tax rate.
Non-controlling Interest in NetLossof Subsidiary
Our non-controlling interest in net loss of subsidiary is solely attributable to the minority interest. The Bank has a 51% voting interest in this venture, but under the terms of the related operating agreement, the non-controlling member receives 70% of the cash flow distributions of RMV and the Bank receives 30% of any distribution, after the non-controlling member recovers its aggregate capital contributions. The non-controlling member is required to fund RMV's losses, in arrears, via additional capital contributions. RMV had a net loss of $976 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to a net loss of $1,543 for the same period in 2019. The decreased loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019 is mainly attributable to the correspondent line of business. Also, see Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements for segment reporting.
COMPARISON OF BALANCE SHEETS ATMARCH 31, 2020AND DECEMBER 31, 2019
Overview
The Company’s total assets were $2,177,788 at March 31, 2020 and $1,898,467 at December 31, 2019. Assets increased by 14.7% from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020, primarily due to loan growth of $207,208, or 14.8%. Total liabilities were $1,943,116 at March 31, 2020 and $1,674,714 at December 31, 2019, an increase of 16.0%. The increase in liabilities from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020,2021 was substantially attributable to the increase in deposits of $138,659, or 8.8%, and an increase in FHLB advances of $116,891 during the period. These changes were materially impacted by the TCB Holdings Transaction. These and other components of our consolidated balance sheets are discussed further below.
Loans
Lending-related income is the largest component of our net interest income and is a major contributor to profitability. The loan portfolio is the largest component of earning assets, and it, therefore, generates the largest portion of revenues. 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. As previously described, the competition for quality loans in our markets has remained strong. Our goal is to steadily grow our loan portfolio, focusing on quality. This is not always possible for various reasons, including but not limited to scheduled maturities or early payoffs exceeding new loan volume. Early payoffs typically increase in lowering rate environments as customers identify advantageous opportunities for refinancing. We have been adding experienced lending officers to our staff to help with loan growth. We have expanded our Middle Tennessee footprint into Cheatham County with the TCB Holdings Transaction. Total loans, net, at March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, were $1,604,582 and $1,397,374, respectively. This represented an increase of 14.8% from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020. As part of the increase in loans, $171,445, were acquired in connection with the TCB Holdings Transaction.

Multi-family and commercial real estate loans of $635,650 at March 31, 2020, increased 18.4% compared to the $536,845 held as of December 31, 2019. Real estate construction loans consist of 1-4 family residential construction loans, other construction loans, land loans, and loans secured by farmland. Construction lending has continued to increase based on a strong local market demand.
Consumer loans mainly consist of loans to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures under revolving credit plans, credit cards, automobile and other consumer loans. Our consumer loans experienced an increase from December 31, 2019, to March 31, 2020, of 43.2%.
Other loans consist mainly of loans to states and political subdivisions and loans to other depository institutions and experienced a decrease of 43.4% from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020.
The repayment of loans is a source of additional liquidity for us. The following table sets forth the loans repricing or maturing within specific intervals at March 31, 2020, excluding unearned net fees and costs.

The information presented in the above table is based upon the contractual maturities or next repricing date 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, we believe this treatment presents fairly the maturity and repricing structure of the loan portfolio.
Allowance for Loan Losses
At March 31, 2020, the allowance for loan losses was $15,121 compared to $12,578 at December 31, 2019. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.93% at March 31, 2020 compared to 0.89% at December 31, 2019.
The following table sets forth the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the periods presented.

Section 4013 of the CARES Act, which was signed into law on March 27, 2020, provides that financial institutions may elect to account for loan modifications occurring between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of December 31, 2020 and the 60th day after the end of the COVID-19 national emergency declared by President Trump, which are due to COVID-19 and where the borrower was current on contractual payments as of December 31, 2019, as not TDRs. Additionally, on April 7, 2020, federal banking regulators issued an Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications by Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus (Revised), which replaced a prior interagency statement predating the CARES Act. The revised interagency statement encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers that may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations because of the effects of COVID-19. It also addresses loan modifications not meeting the criteria set forth in Section 4013 of the CARES Act or for which financial institutions elect not to apply Section 4013. With respect to these loan modifications, the revised interagency statement provides that short-term (e.g. six month) modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current on their contractual payments at the time of implementation of a modification program are not TDRs.
Through March 31, 2020, the Company had applied this guidance and modified loans with aggregate principal balances totaling $319.0 million. More of these types of modifications are likely to be executed in the second quarter of 2020. The modifications generally involved three-month extensions of interest-only periods or full payment deferrals. Of these modified loans the primary categories were $153.9 million of commercial real estate loans, $80.2 million of hospitality based loans, $39.2 million of restaurant related loans, $16.1 million of commercial and industrial loans, $14.8 million of multifamily loans, and the remainder being church, medical and consumer loans. The deferral of payment is to be collected at the end of the loan term.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consists of nonperforming loans plus real estate acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure. Nonperforming loans by definition consists of nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. When we place a loan on nonaccrual 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, which generally includes a minimum performance of six months.
The following table provides information with respect to the Company’s nonperforming assets.

Investment Securities and Other Earning Assets
The investment securities portfolio is intended to provide the Bank with adequate liquidity, flexible asset/liability management and a source of stable income. The portfolio is structured with investment grade holdings and consists of securities classified as available-for-sale. All available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value and may be used for liquidity purposes should management deem it to be in our best interest. Unrealized gains and losses on this portfolio are excluded from earnings, but are reported as other comprehensive income in a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of income taxes. Premium amortization and discount accretion are recognized as adjustments to interest income using the interest method. Realized gains or losses on sales are based on the net proceeds and the adjusted carrying value amount of the securities sold using the specific identification method.
Securities totaled $256,928 at March 31, 2020, which was relatively flat in comparison to the $260,293 in securities balances at December 31, 2019. Activity during the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes the sale of $56,336 of securities as well as $1,836 of principal paydowns, calls, and maturities. In connection with the TCB Holdings Transaction, management determined that it would be beneficial to liquidate that portfolio and utilize those funds for loan demand and other uses.
Restricted equity securities totaled $14,405 and $11,279 at March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively, and consist of FRB and FHLB stock.

Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment, net, totaled $27,609 at March 31, 2020 compared to $21,376 at December 31, 2019, a net increase of $6,233, or 29.2%. Premises and equipment purchases amounted to approximately $457 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and were mainly incurred for additional leasehold improvements for our branches and new mortgage locations while depreciation expense amounted to $598. As part of the TCB Holdings Transaction, $6,440 of premises and equipment were acquired effective January 1. 2020. At March 31, 2020, we operated from 21 retail banking locations as well as five stand-alone mortgage loan production offices. At March 31, 2020, our branches were located in Cheatham, Davidson, Hamilton, Hickman, Maury, Robertson, Rutherford, Sumner and Williamson counties in Tennessee. As of March 31, 2020, our mortgage loan production offices were located in Brentwood, Chattanooga, Hendersonville, and Memphis, Tennessee as well as two in Little Rock, Arkansas and one in Crosset, Arkansas.
Deposits
Deposits represent the Company’s largest source of funds. The Company competes with other bank and non-bank institutions for deposits, as well as with a growing number of non-deposit investment alternatives available to depositors such as money market funds and other brokerage investment products. Challenges to deposit growth include price changes on deposit products given movements in the interest rate environment and other competitive pricing pressures, and customer preferences regarding higher-costing deposit products or non-deposit investment alternatives.
At March 31, 2020, total deposits were $1,722,448, an increase of $138,659, or 8.8%19.0%, compared to $1,583,789 at December 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, noninterest bearing demand deposits increased by $60,480, interest-bearing demand deposits increased by $17,586, savings and money market deposits increased by $86,026, and time deposits decreased by $25,433. The primary factor43.3% for of the increase in deposits is attributable to the deposits acquired related to TCB Holdings Transaction which totaled $210,528. During the quarter ending March 31, 2020, management shifted from using brokered time deposits to transactional deposits and to using FHLB advances.

Market and Liquidity Risk Management
Our objective is to manage assets and liabilities to provide a satisfactory, consistent level of profitability within the framework of established liquidity, loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies. Our Asset Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") is charged with the responsibility of monitoring these policies, which are designed to ensure acceptable composition of asset/liability mix. Two critical areas of focus for ALCO are interest rate sensitivity and liquidity risk management.
Interest Rate Sensitivity—Interest rate sensitivity refers to the responsiveness of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities to changes in market interest rates. In the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risk arising from fluctuations in interest rates. ALCO measures and evaluates the interest rate risk so that we can meet customer demands for various types of loans and deposits. ALCO determines the most appropriate amounts of off-balance sheet items to maximize long-term earnings and mitigate interest rate risk. Measurements we use to help us manage interest rate sensitivity include a gap analysis, an earnings simulation model and an economic value of equity model. These measurements are used in conjunction with competitive pricing analysis and are further described below.
Interest Rate Sensitivity Gap Analysis—The rate sensitive position, or gap, is the difference in the volume of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, at a given time interval, including both floating rate instruments and instruments which are approaching maturity. The measurement of our interest rate sensitivity, or gap, is one of the three principal techniques we use in our asset/liability management effort.
Our policy is to have 12 and 24-month cumulative repricing gaps that do not exceed 25% of assets. We slightly exceeded our policy as of March 31, 2020 for the 12-month cumulative repricing gap. Although we do monitor our gap on a periodic basis, we recognize the potential shortcomings of such a model. The static nature of the gap schedule makes it difficult to incorporate changes in behavior that are caused by changes in interest rates. Also, although the periods of estimated and contractual repricing are identified in the analysis, the extent of repricing is not modeled in the gap schedule (i.e. whether repricing is expected to move on a one-to-one or other basis in relationship to the market changes simulated). For these reasons and as a result of other model shortcomings, we rely more heavily on the earnings simulation model and the economic value of equity model discussed further below.
Earnings Simulation Model—We believe interest rate risk is effectively measured by our earnings simulation modeling. Earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments are combined with simulated forecasts of interest rates for the next 12 months and 24 months. To limit interest rate risk, we have guidelines for our earnings at risk which seek to limit the negative variances of net interest income in instantaneous changes to interest rates. We also periodically monitor simulations based on various rate scenarios such as non-parallel shifts in market interest rates over time. For changes up or down in rates from a flat interest rate forecast over the next 12 and 24 months, our estimated change in net interest income as well as our policy limits are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Instantaneous, Parallel Change in Prevailing Interest Rates Equal to | | Estimated Change in Net Interest Income and Policy of Maximum Percentage Decline in Net Interest Income | | | | | | |
| | Next 12 | | | | Next 24 | | |
| | Months | | | | Months | | |
| | Estimate | | Policy | | Estimate | | Policy |
-200 bp | | (1.4)% | | (15)% | | (3.5)% | | (15)% |
-100 bp | | (0.6)% | | (10)% | | (2.4)% | | (10)% |
+100 bp | | (0.7)% | | (10)% | | 1.8% | | (10)% |
+200 bp | | (0.2)% | | (15)% | | 4.2% | | (15)% |
+300 bp | | 0.8% | | (20)% | | 6.6% | | (20)% |
+400 bp | | 1.7% | | (25)% | | 8.9% | | (25)% |
We were in compliance with our earnings simulation model policies as of March 31, 2020, indicating what we believe to be a fairly neutral interest-rate risk profile.
Economic Value of Equity—Our economic value of equity model measures the extent that estimated economic values of our assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items will change as a result of interest rate changes. Economic values are determined by
discounting expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items, which establishes a base case economic value of equity.
To help monitor our related risk, we have established the following policy limits regarding simulated changes in our economic value of equity:
| | | | | | | | |
Instantaneous, Parallel Change in Prevailing Interest Rates Equal to | | Maximum Percentage Decline in Economic Value of Equity from the Economic Value of Equity at Currently Prevailing Interest Rates |
+100 bp | | 15% |
+200 bp | | 25% |
+300 bp | | 30% |
+400 bp | | 35% |
Non-parallel shifts | | 35% |
At March 31, 2020, our model results indicated that we were within these policy limits.
Each of the above analyses may not, on its own, be an accurate indicator of how our net interest income will be affected by changes in interest rates. Income associated with interest-earning assets and costs associated with interest-bearing liabilities may not be affected uniformly by changes in interest rates. In addition, the magnitude and duration of changes in interest rates may have a significant impact on net interest income. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities fluctuate in advance of changes in general market rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in general market rates. In addition, certain assets, such as adjustable rate loans, have features (generally referred to as interest rate caps and floors) which limit changes in interest rates. Prepayment and early withdrawal levels also could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the maturity of certain instruments. The ability of many borrowers to service their debts also may decrease during periods of rising interest rates. Our ALCO reviews each of the above interest rate sensitivity analyses along with several different interest rate scenarios as part of its responsibility to provide a satisfactory, consistent level of profitability within the framework of established liquidity, loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies.
Liquidity Risk Management—The purpose of liquidity risk management is to ensure that there are sufficient cash flows to satisfy loan demand, deposit withdrawals, and our other needs. Traditional sources of liquidity for a bank include asset maturities and growth in core deposits. A bank may achieve its desired liquidity objectives from the management of its assets and liabilities and by internally generated funding through its operations. Funds invested in marketable instruments that can be readily sold and the continuous maturing of other earning assets are sources of liquidity from an asset perspective. The liability base provides sources of liquidity through attraction of increased deposits and borrowing funds from various other institutions and sources.
Changes in interest rates also affect our liquidity position. We currently price deposits in response to market rates and our management intends to continue this policy. If deposits are not priced in response to market rates, a loss of deposits could occur which would negatively affect our liquidity position.
Scheduled loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, but loan payoffs and deposit flows fluctuate significantly, being influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions, competition, and the actions of our customers. Additionally, debt security investments are subject to prepayment and call provisions that could accelerate their payoff prior to stated maturity. We attempt to price our deposit products to meet our asset/liability objectives consistent with local market conditions. Our ALCO is responsible for monitoring our ongoing liquidity needs. Our regulators also monitor our liquidity and capital resources on a periodic basis.
The Company has established a line of credit with the FHLB, which is secured by a blanket pledge of 1-4 family residential mortgages, multi-family residential, commercial real estate, and home equity loans, and available-for-sale securities. At March 31, 2020, FHLB advances totaled $127,628 compared to $10,737 as of December 31, 2019. The increase in FHLB advances generally is in conjunction with the decrease in time deposits to decrease more expensive brokered deposits.
At March 31, 2020, the scheduled maturities of our FHLB advances and interest rates were as follows (scheduled maturities will differ from scheduled repayments):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Scheduled Maturities | | Amount | | Weighted Average Rates |
2020 | | $ | 115,000 | | | 0.24% |
2021 | | 7,312 | | | 2.33% |
2022 | | 506 | | | 1.22% |
2023 | | 4,205 | | | 2.36% |
2024 | | 605 | | | 2.50% |

The Company has outstanding $23,000 of subordinated debentures associated with trust preferred securities issued by trusts that are affiliates of Reliant Bancorp, $10,000 of which is owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of Reliant Bancorp. Reliant Bancorp has timely made its scheduled interest payments on these subordinated debentures since assumed in the first quarter of 2018. As of March 31, 2020, Reliant Bancorp was current on all interest payments due related to its subordinated debentures. Reliant Bancorp has the right to defer the payment of interest on the subordinated debentures at any time, for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarters. During the period in which it is deferring the payment of interest on its subordinated debentures, the indentures governing the subordinated debentures provide that Reliant Bancorp cannot pay any dividends on its common stock or preferred stock.
On December 13, 2019, Reliant Bancorp issued and sold $60.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.125% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2029 (the “Subordinated Notes”). The Subordinated Notes will bear interest at an initial rate of 5.125%, payable semi-annually until December 15, 2024, at which time the Subordinated Notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to the three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (provided, that in the event the three-month SOFR is less than zero, the three-month SOFR will be deemed to be zero), plus a spread of 376.5 basis points. If the three-month SOFR rises during the floating interest period, the cost of the Subordinated Notes will increase, thereby negatively affecting our net income.
Capital
Stockholders’ equity was $234,672 at March 31, 2020, an increase of $10,919, or 4.9%, from $223,753 at December 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company completed the TCB Holdings Transaction which increased stockholders' equity $18,041. This increase was primarily offset during the quarter by dividends declared of $1,207, a net loss of $1,191, and an other comprehensive loss of $6,084. Contributions from the noncontrolling interest of $976 were recognized in the quarter. The increase in stockholders' equity mitigated by the growth in the Bank's assets led to an increase in the Bank’s March 31, 2020 Tier 1 leverage ratio to 10.58% compared with 10.30% at December 31, 2019 (see other ratios discussed further below). Additionally, the subordinated debentures qualify as Tier 1 and Total risk-based capital for the Company. Common dividends of $1,274 (of which $76 were declared in the prior year) were paid during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
On July 14, 2017, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to offer, issue and sell from time to time in one or more offerings any combination of (i) common stock, (ii) preferred stock, (iii) debt securities, (iv) depository shares, (v) warrants, and (vi) units, up to a maximum aggregate offering price of $75,000,000. The net proceeds from any offering will be used for general corporate purposes including acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments, and the repayment, redemption, or refinancing of any indebtedness or other securities. Until allocated to such purposes it is expected that we will invest any proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing instruments or other investment-grade securities. The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the Registration Statement on Form S-3 effective on August 17, 2017, and the Registration Statement on Form S-3 will expire on August 17, 2020.
Banks as regulated institutions are required to maintain certain levels of capital. The Federal Reserve Board of Governors, the primary federal regulator for the Bank, has adopted minimum capital regulations or guidelines that categorize components and the level of risk associated with various types of assets. Financial institutions are expected to maintain a level of capital
commensurate with the risk profile assigned to their assets in accordance with the guidelines. We regularly review our capital adequacy to ensure compliance with these regulations and guidelines and to help ensure that sufficient capital is available for current and future needs. It is management’s intent to maintain an optimal capital and leverage mix for growth and for shareholder returns.
Prompt corrective action regulations provide five capital 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, 2020, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since these notifications that management believes have changed the institution’s category. Actual and required capital amounts and ratios are presented below as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for the Company and Bank.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which require the measurement of financial positions 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’ 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 refinancing tend to slow as interest rates increase, and can reduce our earnings from such activities.
Off-Balance Sheet Lending Arrangements
Off-balance sheet arrangements generally consist of unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments were as follows at March 31, 2020:
| | | | | |
| March 31, 2020 |
Unused lines of credit | $ | 365,838 | |
Standby letters of credit | 17,027 | |
Total commitments | $ | 382,865 | |
Other Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to mitigate interest rate risk. The total notional amount of swap agreements was $179,605 and $129,605 respectively, at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the contracts had negative fair values totaling $9,618 and $2,708, respectively.
Emerging Growth Company Status
Reliant Bancorp is presently 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 Reliant Bancorp chooses to comply with the reporting requirements of public companies that are not emerging growth companies, Reliant Bancorp may avail itself of the reduced requirements applicable to emerging growth companies from time to time in the future, so long as Reliant Bancorp is an emerging growth company. Reliant Bancorp will remain an emerging growth company through fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, or until such earlier time that we have more than $1.07 billion in total annual gross revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our common shares held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. Management cannot predict if investors will find Reliant Bancorp’s common stock less attractive because it will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find Reliant Bancorp’s common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for its common stock and Reliant Bancorp’s stock price may be more volatile.
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 election to opt out is irrevocable. Reliant Bancorp has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period that allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies, which means that the financial statements included in this filing, as well as the financial statements we will file in the future, will be subject to all new or revised accounting standards generally applicable to private companies. As a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards to the same extent that compliance is required for non-public companies.
NOTE 12 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Tennessee Community Bank Holdings, Inc.
Effective January 1, 2020, Reliant Bancorp completed the acquisition of TCB Holdings pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 16, 2019 (the “TCB Holdings Agreement”), by and among Reliant Bancorp, TCB Holdings, and Community Bank & Trust, a Tennessee-chartered commercial bank and wholly owned subsidiary of TCB Holdings (“CBT”). On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the TCB Holdings Agreement, TCB Holdings merged with and into Reliant Bancorp (the “TCB Holdings Transaction”), with Reliant Bancorp as the surviving corporation. Immediately following the TCB Holdings Transaction, CBT merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank continuing as the surviving banking corporation. Pursuant to the TCB Holdings Agreement, at the effective time of the TCB Holdings Transaction, each outstanding share of TCB Holdings common stock, par value $1.00 per share (other than certain excluded shares), was converted into and canceled in exchange for the right to receive (i) $17.13 in cash, without interest, and (ii) 0.769 shares of the Reliant Bancorp’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share (“Reliant Bancorp Common Stock”). The aggregate consideration payable by Reliant Bancorp in respect of shares of TCB Holdings common stock as consideration for the TCB Holdings Transaction was 811,210 shares of Reliant Bancorp Common Stock and approximately $18,073 in cash. Reliant Bancorp did not issue fractional shares of Reliant Bancorp Common Stock in connection with the TCB Holdings Transaction, but paid cash in lieu of fractional shares based on the volume weighted average closing price per share of the Reliant Bancorp Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on and including December 30, 2019 (calculated as $22.36). At the effective time of the TCB Holdings Transaction, each outstanding option to purchase TCB Holdings common stock was canceled in exchange for a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (i) $34.25 minus the per share exercise price of the option multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of TCB Holdings common stock subject to the option (to the extent not previously exercised). Reliant Bancorp paid aggregate consideration to holders of unexercised options of approximately $430. All shares of Reliant Bancorp Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the TCB Holdings Transaction were unaffected by the TCB Holdings Transaction.

Supplemental Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statements of Income
Pro forma data for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 in the table below presents information as if the TCB Holdings Transaction and FABK Transaction occurred on January 1, 2020. These results combine the historical results of TCB Holdings and FABK into the Company's consolidated statement of income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisitions taken place on the indicated date nor are they intended to represent or be indicative of future results of operations. In particular, no adjustments have been made to eliminate the amount of TCB Holdings' or FABK's provision for credit losses for the first three months of 2020 that may not have been necessary had the acquired loans been recorded at fair value as of the beginning of 2020. Additionally, these financials were not adjusted for non-recurring expenses, such as merger-related charges incurred by either the Company, TCB Holdings or FABK. The Company expects to achieve operating cost savings and other business synergies as a result of the acquisitions which are also not reflected in the pro forma amounts.

Item2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Executive Summary
The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to our financial position and operating results. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere herein along with Reliant Bancorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Amounts in the narrative are shown in thousands, except for economic and demographic information, numbers of shares, per share amounts and as otherwise noted.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and general practices within the banking industry. Within our financial statements, certain financial information contain approximate measurements of financial effects of transactions and impacts at the consolidated balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods. We monitor the status of proposed and newly issued accounting standards to evaluate the impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Our accounting policies, including the impact of newly issued accounting standards, are discussed in further detail in Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual report. Subsequent adoptions and changes to critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2021 are further described in Note 1 within "Part 1. Financial Information - Notes to consolidated financial statements" of this report.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Quarterly Report contains certain financial measures that are not measures recognized under U.S. GAAP and, therefore, are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Members of Company management use these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance, financial condition, and efficiency of operations. Management of the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results with prior periods, and demonstrate the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented. Management of the Company also believes that investors find these non-GAAP financial measures useful as they assist investors in understanding underlying operating performance and identifying and analyzing ongoing operating trends. However, the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein are calculated may differ from the manner in which measures with similar names are calculated by other companies. You should understand how other companies calculate their financial measures similar to, or with names similar to, the non-GAAP financial measures we have discussed herein when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures.
The non-GAAP measures in this Quarterly Report include “adjusted net interest margin (NIM),” “adjusted net income (loss),” “adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS),” “adjusted annualized return on average assets (ROAA),” “adjusted annualized return on average equity (ROAE),” “adjusted annualized return on average tangible common equity (ROATCE),” “adjusted pre-tax pre-provision income,” “tangible common equity to tangible assets (TCE/TA),” “tangible book value per share,” “allowance for loan losses plus unaccreted purchased loan discounts to total loans,” “bank segment adjusted net income (loss),” “bank segment adjusted noninterest expense,” and “bank segment adjusted efficiency ratio.”
Executive Overview and Earnings Summary
Net income attributable to common shareholders amounted to $12,149, or $0.73 per basic share, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a loss of $215, or $0.02 per basic share for the same periods in 2020. Diluted net income attributable to common shareholders was $0.73 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to a loss of $0.02 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
The major components contributing to the change when compared to the prior year period are an increase of 75.4% in net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and an increase of 123.6% in noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and partially offset by an increase of 10.5% in noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and a decrease of $2,900 in provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020 due to the expected impact from the economic slowdown from the COVID-19 pandemic experienced in 2020.
Tax-equivalent net interest margin increased to 4.51% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to 3.60% in the same period in 2020. These and other components of earnings are discussed further below.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Impact
During the current and prior fiscal year, the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on our customers, associates, and communities, which collectively impacts our shareholders. Below is a summary of some of those impacts and our responses related to COVID-19.
As part of our pandemic response, we have encouraged a significant portion of our employees to work from home. We have also extended virtual medical coverage to all employees as well as provided pay to employees who may have been exposed. We are encouraging virtual meetings and conference calls in place of in-person meetings. We are promoting social distancing, frequent hand washing, thorough disinfection of all surfaces, and the use of masks or nose and mouth coverings has been mandated in all of our locations. We have welcomed back customers for lobby visits beginning March 29, 2021 after a steady decline of COVID-19 case counts and hospitalizations were reported by the Tennessee Department of Health. Banking center drive-ups, ATMs and online/mobile banking services continue to operate. Tennessee’s Governor Lee has declared that the pandemic state in Tennessee is no longer considered a health crisis, but a “managed public health issue” as businesses begin to return to normal operation and mask mandates are lifted. Infection rates in the communities we serve vary by region and we will make prudent decisions for the safety of our colleagues and our clients.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was signed into law in March 2020 and subsequently amended, along with subsequent regulatory guidance encouraged financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of COVID-19. Additionally, the CARES Act further provides that a qualified loan modification is except by law from classification as a TDR as defined by U.S. GAAP beginning March 1, 2020 until the earlier of January 1, 2022 or the date that is 60 days after the date on which the national emergency concerning the COVID-19 outbreak terminates. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $33,121 of loans modified and a total of $597,327 loans previously deferred that returned to normal payment status. These deferrals typically ranged from sixty to ninety days per deferral and were not considered TDRs under the interagency regulatory guidance or the CARES Act.
The Company is participating in the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") under the CARES Act, which is being administered by the SBA. As of March 31, 2021 the Bank had 588 PPP loans outstanding totaling $41.9 million with $41.5 million in PPP loans forgiven and repaid to date. Participation in the PPP will likely have an impact on the Company's asset mix and net interest margin in 2021.
At March 31, 2021, our level of nonperforming assets was 0.32% of total assets and was not materially impacted by the economic pressures of COVID-19. We are closely monitoring credit risk and our exposure to increased loan losses resulting from the impact of COVID-19 on our commercial and other clients.
We are in regular communication with our customers to gain a better understanding of our highest risk exposures and probable defaults. In the quarter ended March 31, 2021 we did not increase our allowance for loan loss through a provision as loan growth was minimal during the quarter and economic factors have considerably improved, partially due to the federal stimulus programs.
At this time, we do not believe there exists any impairment to our intangible assets, long-lived assets, right-of-use assets, or available-for-sale investment securities due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is uncertain whether prolonged effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will result in future impairment charges related to any of the aforementioned assets.
As of March 31, 2021, Reliant Bancorp’s and Reliant Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of the regulatory minimum capital requirements and those required to be considered well-capitalized under applicable federal regulations. While we believe that we have sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, our reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by future credit losses.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
The largest component of our net income is net interest income - the difference between the income earned on loans, investment securities and other interest earning assets and interest expense on deposit accounts and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income calculated on a tax-equivalent basis divided by total average interest-earning assets represents our net interest margin. The major factors that affect net interest income and net interest margin are changes in volumes, the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Our margin can also be affected by economic conditions, the competitive environment, loan demand and deposit flow. Our ability to respond to changes in these factors by using effective asset-liability management techniques is critical to maintaining the stability of the net interest margin and our net interest income.
The following tables set forth the amount of our average balances, interest income or interest expense for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the average interest rate for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, net interest spread and net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and 2020 (dollars in thousands):

(1) Calculated using daily averages.
(2) Average loan balances include nonaccrual loans.
(3) Yields on loans reflects tax-exempt interest and state tax credits received on low or zero percent interest loans made to construct low income housing of $661 and $322, for the years ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, respectively.
(4) Yields on tax-exempt securities are shown on a tax-equivalent basis.
(5) Net interest spread is calculated as the yields realized on interest-bearing assets less the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
(6) Net interest margin is the result of net interest income calculated on a tax-equivalent basis divided by average interest earning assets for the period.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis of approximately $31,045 which resulted in a net interest margin (net interest income divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets) of 4.51% compared to 3.60% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in average loan balances and a decrease in the Company's use of retail deposits which have a higher interest rate as well as an overall decline in the interest rate environment.
The components of our loan yield, a key driver to our NIM for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and March 31, 2020, were as follows:

Tax-equivalent loan interest income | $ | 31,650 | | | 5.63 | % | | $ | 20,967 | | | 5.23 | % |
(1) Includes $139 in loan contractual interest related to PPP loans for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
(2) Includes $903 in PPP related fees for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Our combined loan and loan fee yield increased from 5.23% to 5.63% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The effects of the declining interest rate environment were offset by the realization of additional interest income related to the FABK acquisition which occurred on April 1, 2020. Our year-over-year average loan volume increased by approximately 41.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 and was mainly driven by the FABK Transaction which made up $526.0 million of the loan balance as of March 31, 2021. Additionally, our continued focus on serving our customers led to organic growth of 8.2% year-over-year. In addition to the overall loan volume increase, the FABK acquisition resulted in the addition of the manufactured housing loan portfolio which generate higher yields when compared to other loan types and contributed to the loan yield increase.
Accretion on purchased loans contributed 32 basis points to the NIM for three months ended March 31, 2021 as a result of the increased accretion included in interest income from the FABK Transaction compared to the 13 basis points contributed in the comparable period in 2020 which only included accretion income from the TCB Transaction. Contractual interest and origination fees on PPP loans attributed 5 basis points to the NIM for the three months ended March 31, 2021. We anticipate recognizing $906 in deferred origination fees over the remaining life of the PPP loan portfolio.
Our cost of funds decreased to 0.67% from 1.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 as rates continue to decline and our team continues to focus on reducing more costly time deposits and retaining lower cost customer deposits. Average retail time deposits decreased 8.8% year-over-year compared to the increase in average total deposits of 48.4%. While the acquired FABK deposits drives a majority of this increase, organic deposits increased 22.1% year-over-year. In addition to the 60 basis point decrease in cost of deposits, cost of funds benefited from a decrease in the cost of FHLB advances of 111 basis points as the average balance decreased 93.2% as a result of the prepayments in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Provision for Loan Losses
We did not record a provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $2,900 recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The provision expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 can be primarily attributed to the expected downturn in the economy due to COVID-19 as well as the growth in the loan portfolio, whereas, the three months ended March 31, 2021 experienced minimal growth in the loan portfolio. Additionally, economic outlooks have improved, in part due to the federal stimulus programs and vaccine rollouts.
The acquired loan portfolios from First Advantage Bank and Community Bank & Trust are reserved for through fair value marks that consider both credit quality and changes in interest rates. See “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Financial Condition - Allowance for Loan Losses” included herein for further analysis of the provision for loan losses.
Noninterest Income
Our noninterest income is composed of several components, some of which vary significantly between periods. The following is a summary of our noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and 2020 (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, | | | | Percent Increase | | | | | |
| 2021 | | 2020 | | | | (Decrease) | | | | | | | |
Non-Interest Income | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Service charges and fees on deposits | $ | 1,561 | | | $ | 1,208 | | | | | 29.2 | % | | | | | | | |
Gains on mortgage loans sold, net | 4,928 | | | 1,573 | | | | | 213.3 | % | | | | | | | |
Securities gains, net | 129 | | | — | | | | | 100.0 | % | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Bank-owned life insurance | 435 | | | 295 | | | | | 47.5 | % | | | | | | | |
Brokerage revenue | 69 | | | 32 | | | | | 115.6 | % | | | | | | | |
Miscellaneous noninterest income | 215 | | | 174 | | | | | 23.6 | % | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total noninterest income | $ | 7,337 | | | $ | 3,282 | | | | | 123.6 | % | | | | | | | |
The most significant reasons for the changes in total noninterest income during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 are the fluctuation in gains on mortgage loans sold, net as well as the increase in service charges.
Service charges on deposit accounts generally reflect customer growth trends but also are impacted by changes in our fee pricing structure to help attract and retain customers. The increase in service charges and fees was driven primarily by the incremental increase in transaction volume related to our acquisitions, as well as growth in the volume of our legacy deposit accounts.
Gains on mortgage loans sold, net, consists of fees from the origination and sale of mortgage loans. All of these loan sales transfer servicing rights to the buyer. The mortgage banking business is directly impacted by the interest rate environment, increased regulations, consumer demand, and economic conditions. Mortgage production, especially refinance activity, typically rises in declining interest rate environments. Mortgage loans originated or purchased through correspondents for resale totaled $311,296 in three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $89,076 in the same period in 2020 as a result of the productive market conditions produced by the low interest rate environment.
Securities gains and losses often fluctuate from period to period and can sometimes be attributable to various balance sheet risk strategies. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company sold securities totaling $1,795 with a gain of $129. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company sold securities classified as available for sale which were acquired in the TCB Holdings transaction totaling $56,336. No gain was recognized as the securities were sold at the fair value for which they were acquired.
Noninterest income also includes income from bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”), which increased during the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the the same period in 2020, driven by the additional policies acquired from the FABK and TCB Holdings transactions as well as additional policies purchased in 2020. The assets that support these policies are administered by the life insurance carriers and the income we receive (i.e., increases or decreases in the cash surrender value of the policies) is dependent upon the returns the insurance carriers are able to earn on the underlying investments that support the policies. Earnings on these policies generally are not taxable.
Noninterest Expense
The following is a summary of our noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, | | | Percent Increase | | | | |
| 2021 | | 2020 | | | (Decrease) | | | | | | |
Non-Interest Expense | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Salaries and employee benefits | $ | 13,352 | | | $ | 9,237 | | | | 44.5 | % | | | | | | |
Occupancy | 2,008 | | | 1,486 | | | | 35.1 | % | | | | | | |
Data processing and software | 2,229 | | | 1,819 | | | | 22.5 | % | | | | | | |
Professional fees | 1,243 | | | 478 | | | | 160.0 | % | | | | | | |
Regulatory fees | 361 | | | 454 | | | | (20.5) | % | | | | | | |
Merger expenses | — | | | 4,186 | | | | (100.0) | % | | | | | | |
Other operating expense | 2,471 | | | 1,938 | | | | 27.5 | % | | | | | | |
Total noninterest expense | $ | 21,664 | | | $ | 19,598 | | | | 10.5 | % | | | | | | |
Noninterest expense increased during the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to March 31, 2020 which is primarily driven by incremental costs incurred following the TCB Holdings and FABK transactions offset by the merger expenses incurred in 2020. While we continue to pursue strategic acquisition activities, we are not currently anticipating any merger expenses in 2021.
The 44.5% increase in salaries and employee benefits is primarily attributable to the increase in employees from the FABK transaction as well as our year-over-year growth. While staffing levels have normalized, we experienced an overall increase in FTEs from 321 at March 31, 2020 to 425 at March 31, 2021.
Occupancy costs increased by $522 or 35.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 mainly due to the FABK Transaction as well as the expansion of RMV. The Board has approved a branch justification project that has resulted in the announced closure of one branch and the intent to close two additional branches in 2021.
Data processing and software expense increased from March 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 and is mainly attributable to an increased volume of accounts and transactions services as well as continued investments in information technology infrastructure. Both the volume and location increases are primarily due to the FABK Transaction and the expansion of RMV.
Professional fees increased by $765 or 160.0%, when comparing the three months ended March 31, 2021 to the same period in 2020 primarily driven by the settlement of lawsuits occurring at RMV regarding activities under previous RMV management.
Efficiency ratio
The efficiency ratio is one measure of productivity in the banking industry. This ratio is calculated to measure the cost of generating one dollar of revenue. That is, the ratio is designed to reflect the percentage of one dollar which must be expended to generate that dollar of revenue. We calculate this ratio by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. For an adjusted efficiency ratio, we exclude certain gains, losses and expenses we do not consider core to our business.
Our efficiency ratio of our banking segment was 52.2% and 90.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our adjusted efficiency ratio, on a tax-equivalent basis, was 50.8% and 65.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in this Quarterly Report for the reconciliation of the adjusted efficiency ratio.
Income Taxes
During the three months ended March 31, 2021 we recorded consolidated income tax expense of $2,980 as compared to a recorded benefit of $910 for the same period in 2020. This represents consolidated effective tax rates of 19.0% and 43.3%, respectively. When evaluating the bank segment alone, this ratio was 19.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as
compared to 79.6% for the same period in 2020. This decrease is primarily due to the nondeductible merger expenses in the first quarter of 2020 when compared to 2021.
Non-controlling Interest in Operating Resultsof Subsidiary
Our non-controlling interest in operating results of subsidiary is solely attributable to the RMV minority interest. The Bank has a 51% voting interest in this venture, but under the terms of the related operating agreement, the non-controlling member receives 70% of the cash flow distributions of RMV and the Bank receives 30% of any cash flow distributions, after the non-controlling member recovers its aggregate capital contributions. The non-controlling member is required to fund RMV's losses, in arrears, via additional capital contributions. RMV had a net income of $570 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to a net loss of $976 for the same period in 2020. The improvements in operating results is mainly attributable to the productive market conditions produced by the low interest rate environment. Also, see Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements for segment reporting.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Overview
The Company’s total assets were $3,057,066 at March 31, 2021 and $3,026,535 at December 31, 2020, an increase of 1.0%. Total liabilities were $2,725,367 at March 31, 2021 and $2,704,562 at December 31, 2020, an increase of 0.8%. The increase in liabilities was substantially attributable to the increase in deposits of $33,675, or 1.3%, and offset by a decrease in FHLB advances of $10,000 during the period. These and other components of our consolidated balance sheets are discussed further below.
Loans
Lending-related income is the largest component of our net interest income and is a major contributor to profitability. The loan portfolio is the largest component of earning assets, and it, therefore, generates the largest portion of revenues. 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. The competition for quality loans in our markets has remained strong. Our goal is to steadily grow our loan portfolio, focusing on quality. This is not always possible for various reasons, including but not limited to scheduled maturities or early payoffs exceeding new loan volume, as well as economic conditions. Early payoffs typically increase in falling rate environments as customers identify advantageous opportunities for refinancing. We have been adding experienced lending officers to our staff to help with loan growth. Total loans, net of allowance for loan losses, at March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, were $2,256,929 and $2,280,147, respectively, representing a decrease of 1.0%.
The table below provides a summary of the loan portfolio composition for the dates noted (including purchased credit-impaired ("PCI") loans).

Commercial, industrial and agricultural loans above consist solely of loans made to U.S.-domiciled customers. These include loans for use in normal business operations to finance working capital needs, equipment purchases, or other expansionary projects. Commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans were $430,373 at March 31, 2021 and decreased by 6.4% compared to $459,739 at December 31, 2020 which was largely driven by PPP loan forgiveness.
Real estate loans comprised 71.2% of the loan portfolio at March 31, 2021. Residential loans included in this category consist mainly of closed-end loans secured by first and second liens that are not held for sale and revolving, open-end loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties extended under home equity lines of credit. The Company decreased the residential portfolio 0.4% from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021. Multi-family and commercial loans included in the real estate category above include (in typical order of prominence) loans secured by non-owner-occupied commercial real estate properties, and loans secured by multi-family residential properties. Multi-family and commercial real estate loans were $831,242 at March 31, 2021 and decreased 0.3% compared to the $834,000 held as of December 31, 2020. Real estate construction loans consist of 1-4 family residential construction loans, other construction loans, land loans, and loans secured by farmland. Construction lending has continued to increase based on a strong local market demand.
Consumer loans mainly consist of loans to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures under revolving credit plans, credit cards, and automobile and other consumer loans. Our consumer loans experienced an increase from December 31, 2020, to March 31, 2021, of 1.0% primarily due to the $4,716 increase in loans to finance manufactured homes that are not secured by real estate.
Other loans consist mainly of loans to states and political subdivisions and loans to other depository institutions and experienced a decrease of 1.3% from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 due to loan payments.
The repayment of loans is a source of additional liquidity. The following table sets forth the loans repricing or maturing within specific intervals at March 31, 2021, excluding unearned net fees and costs.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| One Year or Less | | One to Five Years | | Over Five Years | | Total |
Gross loans | $ | 632,171 | | | $ | 1,091,418 | | | $ | 557,796 | | | $ | 2,281,385 | |
Fixed interest rate | | | | | | | $ | 1,273,607 | |
Variable interest rate | | | | | | | 1,007,778 | |
Total | | | | | | | $ | 2,281,385 | |
The information presented in the above table is based upon the contractual maturities or next repricing date 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, we believe this treatment presents fairly the maturity and repricing structure of the loan portfolio.
Allowance for Loan Losses
At March 31, 2021, the allowance for loan losses was $20,785 compared to $20,636 at December 31, 2020. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.91% at March 31, 2021 compared to 0.90% at December 31, 2020.
The following table sets forth the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the periods presented.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consists of nonperforming loans plus real estate acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure and other repossessed collateral as well as banking facilities taken out of service. Nonperforming loans by definition consists of nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. When we place a loan on nonaccrual 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, which generally includes a minimum performance of six months.
The following table provides information with respect to the Company’s nonperforming assets.

Investment Securities and Other Earning Assets
The investment securities portfolio is intended to provide the Bank with adequate liquidity, flexible asset/liability management and a source of stable income. The portfolio is structured with investment grade holdings and consists of securities classified as available-for-sale. All available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value and may be used for liquidity purposes should management deem it to be in our best interest. Unrealized gains and losses on this portfolio are excluded from earnings, but are reported as other comprehensive income in a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of income taxes. Premium amortization and discount accretion are recognized as adjustments to interest income using the interest method. Realized gains or losses on sales are based on the net proceeds and the adjusted carrying value amount of the securities sold using the specific identification method.
Securities totaled $267,191 at March 31, 2021, in comparison to the $256,653 in securities balances at December 31, 2020. This increase can largely be attributed to the Company's investment in state and municipal bonds and mortgage backed securities during the period of $17,199. Activity during the three months ended March 31, 2021 includes the sale of $1,795 of securities as well as $1,570 of principal paydowns, calls, and maturities.
Restricted equity securities totaled $16,146 and $16,551 at March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively, and consist of FRB and FHLB stock.
The following table shows the Company’s investments’ amortized cost and fair value, aggregated by investment category, for the periods presented:

Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment, net, totaled $30,879 at March 31, 2021 compared to $31,462 at December 31, 2020, a net decrease of $583, or 1.9%. Premises and equipment purchases amounted to approximately $217 during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and were mainly incurred for additional leasehold improvements and equipment for our branches and mortgage locations while depreciation expense amounted to $741.
Deposits
Deposits represent the Company’s largest source of funds. The Company competes with other banks and non-bank institutions for deposits, as well as with a growing number of non-deposit investment alternatives available to depositors such as money market funds and other brokerage investment products. Challenges to deposit growth include interest rate changes on deposit products given movements in the interest rate environment and other competitive pricing pressures, and customer preferences regarding higher-costing deposit products or non-deposit investment alternatives.
At March 31, 2021, total deposits were $2,612,910, an increase of $33,675, or 1.3%, compared to $2,579,235 at December 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, noninterest bearing demand deposits increased by $3,475, interest-bearing demand deposits increased by $46,655, savings and money market deposits increased by $93,420, and time deposits decreased by $109,875. Our team continues to focus on retaining low cost customer deposits while decreasing higher cost time deposits.

Market and Liquidity Risk Management
Our objective is to manage assets and liabilities to provide a satisfactory, consistent level of profitability within the framework of established liquidity, loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies. Our Asset Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") is charged with the responsibility of monitoring these policies, which are designed to ensure acceptable composition of asset/liability mix. Two critical areas of focus for ALCO are interest rate sensitivity and liquidity risk management.
Interest Rate Sensitivity—Interest rate sensitivity refers to the responsiveness of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities to changes in market interest rates. In the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risk arising from fluctuations in interest rates. ALCO measures and evaluates the interest rate risk so that we can meet customer demands for various types of loans and deposits. ALCO determines the most appropriate amounts of off-balance sheet items to maximize long-term earnings and mitigate interest rate risk. Measurements we use to help us manage interest rate sensitivity include a gap analysis, an earnings simulation model and an economic value of equity model. These measurements are used in conjunction with competitive pricing analysis and are further described below
Earnings Simulation Model—We believe interest rate risk is effectively measured by our earnings simulation modeling. Earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments are combined with simulated forecasts of interest rates for the next 12 months and 24 months. To limit interest rate risk, we have guidelines for our earnings at risk which seek to limit the negative variances of net interest income in instantaneous changes to interest rates. We also periodically monitor simulations based on various rate scenarios such as non-parallel shifts in market interest rates over time. For changes up or down in rates from a flat interest rate forecast over the next 12 and 24 months, our estimated change in net interest income as well as our policy limits are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Instantaneous, Parallel Change in Prevailing Interest Rates Equal to | | Estimated Change in Net Interest Income and Policy of Maximum Percentage Decline in Net Interest Income |
| | Next 12 | | Next 24 |
| | Months | | Months |
| | Estimate | | Policy | | Estimate | | Policy |
-200 bp | | (3.9)% | | (15)% | | (7.2)% | | (15)% |
-100 bp | | (2.3)% | | (10)% | | (4.7)% | | (10)% |
+100 bp | | 2.2% | | (10)% | | 5.1% | | (10)% |
+200 bp | | 5.1% | | (15)% | | 10.3% | | (15)% |
+300 bp | | 8.5% | | (20)% | | 15.8% | | (20)% |
+400 bp | | 11.8% | | (25)% | | 21.3% | | (25)% |
We were in compliance with our earnings simulation model policies as of March 31, 2021, indicating what we believe to be a fairly neutral interest-rate risk profile.
Economic Value of Equity Model—Our economic value of equity model measures the extent that estimated economic values of our assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items will change as a result of interest rate changes. Economic values are determined by discounting expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items, which establishes a base case economic value of equity.
To help monitor our related risk, we have established the following policy limits regarding simulated changes in our economic value of equity:
| | | | | | | | |
Instantaneous, Parallel Change in Prevailing Interest Rates Equal to | | Maximum Percentage Decline in Economic Value of Equity from the Economic Value of Equity at Currently Prevailing Interest Rates |
±100bp | | 15% |
±200 bp | | 25% |
±300 bp | | 30% |
±400 bp | | 35% |
Non-parallel shifts | | 35% |
At March 31, 2021, our model results indicated that we were within these policy limits.
Each of the above analyses may not, on its own, be an accurate indicator of how our net interest income will be affected by changes in interest rates. Income associated with interest-earning assets and costs associated with interest-bearing liabilities may not be affected uniformly by changes in interest rates. In addition, the magnitude and duration of changes in interest rates may have a significant impact on net interest income. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities fluctuate in advance of changes in general market rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in general market rates. In addition, certain assets, such as adjustable rate loans, have features (generally referred to as interest rate caps and floors) which limit changes in interest rates. Prepayment and early withdrawal levels also could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the maturity of certain instruments. The ability of many borrowers to service their debts also may decrease during periods of rising interest rates. Our ALCO reviews each of the above interest rate sensitivity analyses along with several different interest rate scenarios as part of its responsibility to provide a satisfactory, consistent level of profitability within the framework of established liquidity, loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies.
Liquidity Risk Management—The purpose of liquidity risk management is to ensure that there are sufficient cash flows to satisfy loan demand, deposit withdrawals, and our other needs. Traditional sources of liquidity for a bank include asset maturities and growth in core deposits. A bank may achieve its desired liquidity objectives from the management of its assets and liabilities and by internally generated funding through its operations. Funds invested in marketable instruments that can be readily sold and the continuous maturing of other earning assets are sources of liquidity from an asset perspective. The liability base provides sources of liquidity through attraction of increased deposits and borrowing funds from various other institutions and sources.
Changes in interest rates also affect our liquidity position. We currently price deposits in response to market rates and our management intends to continue this policy. If deposits are not priced in response to market rates, a loss of deposits could occur which would negatively affect our liquidity position.
Scheduled loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, but loan payoffs and deposit flows fluctuate significantly, being influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions, competition, and the actions of our customers. Additionally, debt security investments are subject to prepayment and call provisions that could accelerate their payoff prior to stated maturity. We attempt to price our deposit products to meet our asset/liability objectives consistent with local market conditions. Our ALCO is responsible for monitoring our ongoing liquidity needs. Our regulators also monitor our liquidity and capital resources on a periodic basis.
The Company has established a line of credit with the FHLB, which is secured by a blanket pledge of 1-4 family residential mortgages, multi-family residential, commercial real estate, and home equity loans, and available-for-sale securities. At March 31, 2021, FHLB advances totaled $0 compared to $10,000 as of December 31, 2020.
The Company has outstanding $23,000 of subordinated debentures associated with trust preferred securities issued by trusts that are affiliates of Reliant Bancorp, $10,000 of which is owned by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reliant Bancorp. Reliant Bancorp has timely made its scheduled interest payments on these subordinated debentures since assumed in the first quarter of 2018. As of March 31, 2021, Reliant Bancorp was current on all interest payments due related to its subordinated debentures. Reliant Bancorp has the right to defer the payment of interest on the subordinated debentures at any time, for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarters. During the period in which it is deferring the payment of interest on its
subordinated debentures, the indentures governing the subordinated debentures provide that Reliant Bancorp cannot pay any dividends on its common stock or preferred stock.
On December 13, 2019, Reliant Bancorp issued and sold $60,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 5.125% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2029 (the “Subordinated Notes”). The Subordinated Notes will bear interest at an initial rate of 5.125%, payable semi-annually until December 15, 2024, at which time the Subordinated Notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to the three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (provided, that in the event the three-month SOFR is less than zero, the three-month SOFR will be deemed to be zero), plus a spread of 376.5 basis points. If the three-month SOFR rises during the floating interest period, the cost of the Subordinated Notes will increase, thereby negatively affecting our net income.
Capital
Shareholders’ equity was $331,699 at March 31, 2021, an increase of $9,726, or 3.0%, from $321,973 at December 31, 2020, mainly due to current quarter net income. This increase was primarily offset by dividends declared of $2,015, and other comprehensive loss of $744. Contributions from the noncontrolling interest of $570 were recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in shareholders' equity mitigated by the growth in the Bank's assets led to an increase in the Bank’s March 31, 2021 Tier 1 leverage ratio to 11.06% compared with 10.64% at December 31, 2020. See other ratios discussed further below. Additionally, the subordinated debentures qualified as Tier 1 and Total risk-based capital for the Company due to asset size at the time of issuance.
On August 24, 2020, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to offer, issue and sell from time to time in one or more offerings any combination of (i) common stock, (ii) preferred stock, (iii) debt securities, (iv) depository shares, (v) warrants, (vi) units, (vii) purchase contracts, and (viii) rights, up to a maximum aggregate offering price of $100,000. The net proceeds from any offering will be used for general corporate purposes including repayment of debt or payment of interest thereon, capital expenditures, acquisitions, investments, and any other purposes that we may specify in any prospectus supplement. Until allocated to such purposes it is expected that we will invest any proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing instruments or other investment-grade securities. The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the Registration Statement on Form S-3 effective on September 3, 2020, and the Registration Statement on Form S-3 will expire on September 3, 2023.
Banks as regulated institutions are required to maintain certain levels of capital. The Federal Reserve Board of Governors, the primary federal regulator for the Bank, has adopted minimum capital regulations or guidelines that categorize capital components and the level of risk associated with various types of assets. Financial institutions are expected to maintain a level of capital commensurate with the risk profile assigned to their assets in accordance with applicable regulations and guidelines. We regularly review our capital adequacy to ensure compliance with these regulations and guidelines and to help ensure that sufficient capital is available for current and future needs. It is management’s intent to maintain an optimal capital and leverage mix for growth and for shareholder returns.
Prompt corrective action regulations provide five bank capital 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, 2021, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since these notifications that management believes have changed the institution’s category. Actual and required capital amounts and ratios are presented below as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 for Reliant Bancorp and the Bank.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires the measurement of financial positions 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’ 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 refinancing tend to slow as interest rates increase, and can reduce our earnings from such activities.
Off-Balance Sheet Lending Arrangements
Off-balance sheet arrangements generally consist of unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments of the Company were as follows at March 31, 2021:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020,2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Reliant Bancorp and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, the Bank, are periodically involved as a plaintiff or defendant in various legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Neither Reliant Bancorp nor the Bank is involved in any litigation that is expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. Management believes that any claims pending against Reliant Bancorp or its subsidiaries are without merit or that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from them will not materially affect the Bank’s financial condition or Reliant Bancorp’s consolidated financial position.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There are no material changes from the risk factors set forth under Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in Reliant Bancorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 except as described below.
We may not be able to successfully integrate businesses recently acquired or to realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions.
We have begun the process of integrating TCB Holdings and FABK. A successful integration of these businesses with ours will depend substantially on our ability to consolidate operations, corporate cultures, systems and procedures and to eliminate redundancies and costs. We may not be able to combine our business with these businesses we acquired without encountering difficulties, such as:
•the loss of key employees;
•the disruption of operations and business;
•inability to maintain and increase competitive presence;
•loan and deposit attrition, customer loss and revenue loss;
•possible inconsistencies in standards, control procedures and policies;
•unexpected problems with costs, operations, personnel, technology and credit; and/or
•problems with the assimilation of new operations, sites or personnel, which could divert resources from regular banking operations.
Additionally, general market and economic conditions or governmental actions affecting the financial industry generally may inhibit our successful integration of TCB Holdings and FABK. Further, we entered into definitive agreements to acquire TCB Holdings and FABK with the expectation that these acquisitions will result in various benefits including, among other things, benefits relating to enhanced revenues, a strengthened market position for the combined company, cross selling opportunities, technological efficiencies, cost savings and operating efficiencies. Achieving the anticipated benefits of these acquisitions is subject to a number of uncertainties, including whether we integrate TCB Holdings and FABK in an efficient and effective manner, and general competitive factors in the marketplace. Failure to achieve these anticipated benefits on the anticipated timeframes, or at all, could result in a reduction in the price of our shares as well as in increased costs, decreases in the amount of expected revenues and diversion of management's time and energy and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Finally, any cost savings that are realized may be offset by losses in revenues or other charges to earnings.
We have incurred and will continue to incur significant transaction and merger-related costs in connection with the recently completed acquisitions.
We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs associated with combining the operations of TCB Holdings and FABK with our operations. Unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of our business with the businesses of TCB Holdings and FABK. Although we expect that the elimination of duplicative costs, as well as the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of these businesses, may offset incremental transaction and merger-related costs over time, this net benefit may not be achieved in the near term, or at all.
The economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported in China, and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic. On March 12, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States a national emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant economic dislocation in the United States as many state and local governments have ordered non-essential businesses to close and residents to shelter in place at home. This has resulted in an unprecedented suspension of "non-essential" economic activity and a related increase in unemployment. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, record weekly claims for unemployment have occurred and stock markets have declined in value with bank stocks in particular, having significantly declined in value. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Federal Reserve has reduced the benchmark fed funds rate to a target range of 0% to 0.25%, and the yields on 10 and 30-year treasury notes have declined to historic lows. Various state governments and federal agencies are requiring lenders to provide forbearance and other relief to borrowers (e.g., waiving late payment and other fees). The federal banking agencies have encouraged financial institutions to prudently work with affected borrowers and recently passed legislation has provided relief from reporting loan classifications due to modifications related to the COVID-19 outbreak. Certain industries have been particularly hard-hit, including the travel and hospitality industry, the restaurant industry and the retail industry. The spread of the COVID- 19 has caused us to modify our business practices, including face-to-face customer interactions, employee travel, employee work locations, and deploying virtual meetings, events and conferences. We may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers and business partners.
Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business or that of our customers. 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 reopened.
As a participating lender in the PPP, the Company is subject to additional risk of litigation from the Bank’s clients or other parties regarding the Bank’s processing of loans for the PPP and the risks that the SBA may not fund some or all PPP loan guarantees.
On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the CARES Act, which included a $349 billion loan program administered through the SBA referred to as the “Paycheck Protection Program.” Under the PPP, small businesses and other entities and individuals can apply for loans from existing SBA lenders and other approved regulated lenders that enroll in the program, subject to numerous limitations and eligibility criteria. The Bank is participating as a lender in the PPP. The PPP opened on April 3, 2020; however, because of the short timeframe between the passing of the CARES Act and the opening of the PPP, there is some ambiguity in the laws, rules and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP, which exposes the Company to risks relating to noncompliance with the PPP. On or about April 16, 2020, the SBA notified lenders that the $349 billion earmarked for the PPP was exhausted. Congress approved additional funding for the PPP and President Trump signed the new legislation on April 24, 2020. Since the opening of the PPP, several other larger banks have been subject to litigation regarding the process and procedures that such banks used in processing applications for the PPP. The Company may be exposed to the risk of litigation, from both clients and non-clients that approached the Bank regarding PPP loans, regarding its process and procedures used in processing applications for the PPP. If any such litigation is filed against the Company and is not resolved in a manner favorable to the Company, it may result in significant financial liability or adversely affect the Company’s reputation. In addition, litigation can be costly, regardless of outcome. Any financial liability, litigation costs or reputational damage caused by PPP-related litigation could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The Bank also has credit risk on PPP loans if a determination is made by the SBA that there is a deficiency in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded, or serviced by the Bank, such as an issue with the eligibility of a borrower to receive a PPP loan, which may or may not be related to the ambiguity in the laws, rules and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP. In the event of a loss resulting from a default on a PPP loan and a determination by the SBA that there was a deficiency in the manner in which the PPP loan was originated, funded, or serviced by the Company, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of any loss related to the deficiency from the Company.
