The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans in regards to credit risk. This analysis typically includes non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial property and commercial and industrial loans, and is performed on an ongoing basis as new information is obtained. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings: Pass - Loans classified as pass include non-homogeneous loans not meeting the risk ratings defined below and smaller, homogeneous loans not assessed on an individual basis. Special Mention - Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date. Substandard - Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or repayment in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The following table presents the risk categories for the recorded investment in loans by portfolio segment as of dates indicated: ($ in thousands) Pass Special Mention Substandard Doubtful Total September 30, 2022 Real estate loans: Commercial property $ 1,265,366 $ 3,283 $ 3,132 $ — $ 1,271,781 Residential property 297,134 — 372 — 297,506 SBA property 134,133 248 1,707 — 136,088 Construction 14,592 — — — 14,592 Commercial and industrial loans: Commercial term 77,855 1,355 1,015 — 80,225 Commercial lines of credit 112,859 1,100 4,001 — 117,960 SBA commercial term 16,501 — 41 — 16,542 SBA PPP 1,309 — — — 1,309 Other consumer loans 23,209 — 25 — 23,234 Total $ 1,942,958 $ 5,986 $ 10,293 $ — $ 1,959,237 December 31, 2021 Real estate loans: Commercial property $ 1,092,253 $ 11,739 $ 1,851 $ — $ 1,105,843 Residential property 209,485 — — — 209,485 SBA property 127,518 251 1,892 — 129,661 Construction 8,252 — — — 8,252 Commercial and industrial loans: Commercial term 68,626 3,698 1,114 — 73,438 Commercial lines of credit 98,785 2,151 — — 100,936 SBA commercial term 17,111 253 276 — 17,640 SBA PPP 65,329 — — — 65,329 Other consumer loans 21,586 — 35 — 21,621 Total $ 1,708,945 $ 18,092 $ 5,168 $ — $ 1,732,205 Past Due and Nonaccrual Loans The following table presents the aging of past due recorded investment in accruing loans and nonaccrual loans by portfolio segment as of dates indicated: Still Accruing ($ in thousands) 30 to 59 Days Past Due 60 to 89 Days Past Due 90 or More Days Past Due Nonaccrual Total Past Due and Nonaccrual September 30, 2022 Real estate loans: Commercial property $ — $ — $ — $ 2,444 $ 2,444 Residential property — — — 372 372 SBA property 50 192 — 552 794 Commercial and industrial loans: Commercial term — — — 3 3 Commercial lines of credit — — — 4,000 4,000 SBA commercial term 3 — — — 3 Other consumer loans 162 3 — 25 190 Total $ 215 $ 195 $ — $ 7,396 $ 7,806 December 31, 2021 Real estate loans: Residential property $ 461 $ — $ — $ — $ 461 SBA property — — — 746 746 Commercial and industrial loans: SBA commercial term — — — 213 213 Other consumer loans 88 5 — 35 128 Total $ 549 $ 5 $ — $ 994 $ 1,548 There were no nonaccrual loans guaranteed by a U.S. government agency at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
