The majority of these loans are commercial and industrial credits for practice acquisitions and equipment financing with the remainder being owner-occupied real estate. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, also known as the CARES Act, is an economic stimulus bill signed into law on March 27, 2020, in response to the economic fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. The creation of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) enacted under the CARES Act provides forgivable loans to small businesses for payroll obligations, emergency grants to cover immediate operating costs, and a mechanism for loan forgiveness by the Small Business Administration should all criteria be met. The Bank received SBA authorization for 730 and 1,171 PPP loans totaling $ 66.1 million and $ 130.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These loans are fully guaranteed by the Small Business Administration. Qualifying loans in the amount of $ 372.4 million and $ 343.6 million were pledged to secure the line of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Bank individually evaluates all loans for impairment that are on nonaccrual status or are rated substandard (as described below). Additionally, all troubled debt restructurings are evaluated for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current events and circumstances, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan will not be collected. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, at the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Interest payments received on impaired loans are applied as a reduction of the outstanding principal balance. Impaired loans at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows: (in thousands) June 30, 2022 Recorded Unpaid Allocated Average Interest With no related allowance recorded: Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ 91 $ 91 $ — $ 95 $ 3 Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) 3,156 3,156 — 3,156 — Commercial and industrial 388 388 — 418 — Paycheck Protection Program — — — — — Construction, land and acquisition & development — — — — — Residential mortgage 1,770 1,770 — 1,847 5 Consumer installment — — — — — 5,405 5,405 — 5,516 8 With an allowance recorded: Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) 183 184 1 188 6 Commercial and industrial — — — — — Construction, land and acquisition & development — — — — — Residential mortgage 910 910 5 935 12 Consumer installment — — — — — 1,093 1,094 6 1,123 18 Total impaired loans $ 6,498 $ 6,499 $ 6 $ 6,639 $ 26 December 31, 2021 With no related allowance recorded: Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ 95 $ 95 $ — $ 100 $ 6 Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) 3,199 3,199 — 3,177 45 Commercial and industrial 388 421 — 458 — Paycheck Protection Program — — — — — Construction, land and acquisition & development — — — — — Residential mortgage 2,052 2,052 — 2,110 31 Consumer installment 1 1 — 3 — 5,735 5,768 — 5,848 82 With an allowance recorded: Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) 188 189 1 192 12 Commercial and industrial 365 365 1 379 — Construction, land and acquisition & development — — — — — Residential mortgage 940 941 5 960 60 Consumer installment — — — — — 1,493 1,495 7 1,531 72 Total impaired loans $ 7,228 $ 7,263 $ 7 $ 7,379 $ 154 The following table presents the aging of the recorded investment in past due loans, as well as the recorded investment in nonaccrual loans, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 by class of loans: (in thousands) June 30, 2022 30 -59 60- 89 90 Days Total Current Total Nonaccrual Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ — $ 91 $ — $ 91 $ 156,902 $ 156,993 $ — Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) 5 — — 5 126,818 126,823 3,178 Commercial and industrial — — 388 388 152,224 152,612 388 Paycheck Protection Program — — — — 916 916 — Construction, land and acquisition & 460 29 — 489 37,785 38,274 — Residential mortgage 348 1,461 93 1,902 53,157 55,059 3,351 Consumer installment 138 25 10 173 92,509 92,682 92 Total $ 951 $ 1,606 $ 491 $ 3,048 $ 620,311 $ 623,359 $ 7,009 December 31, 2021 Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 158,662 $ 158,662 $ — Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) — — 3,200 3,200 100,842 104,042 3,200 Commercial and industrial 338 — 813 1,151 151,684 152,835 813 Paycheck Protection Program — — — — 17,883 17,883 — Construction, land and acquisition & — — — — 16,317 16,317 — Residential mortgage 4,094 1,711 321 6,126 56,939 63,065 2,873 Consumer installment 289 45 — 334 71,246 71,580 125 Total $ 4,721 $ 1,756 $ 4,334 $ 10,811 $ 573,573 $ 584,384 $ 7,011 There were no loans past due 90 days or greater and still accruing interest as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There was no new troubled debt restructuring during the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. No troubled debt restructurings subsequently defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. The Bank has allocated an allowance for loan losses of approximately $ 6,000 and $ 10,000 to customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Bank categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. The Bank analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on a continuous basis. The Bank uses the following definitions for its risk ratings: Special Mention. Loans have potential weaknesses that may, if not corrected, weaken or inadequately protect the Bank's credit position at some future date. Weaknesses are generally the result of deviation from prudent lending practices, such as over advances on collateral. Credits in this category should, within a 12-month period, move to Pass if improved or drop to Substandard if poor trends continue. Substandard. Inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses such as primary source of repayment is gone or severely impaired or cash flow is insufficient to reduce debt. There is a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful. Loans have the same weaknesses as those classified Substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable. The likelihood of a loss on an asset or portion of an asset classified Doubtful is high. Loss. Loans considered uncollectible and of such little value that the continuance as a Bank asset is not warranted. This does not mean that the loan has no recovery or salvage value, but rather the asset should be charged off even though partial recovery may be possible in the future. Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be Pass rated loans. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows: (in thousands) June 30, 2022 Pass Special Substandard Doubtful/ Total Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ 156,615 $ 378 $ — $ — $ 156,993 Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) 121,141 2,320 3,362 — 126,823 Commercial and industrial 152,224 — 388 — 152,612 Paycheck Protection Program 916 — — — 916 Construction, land and acquisition & development 38,274 — — — 38,274 Residential mortgage 51,766 — 3,293 — 55,059 Consumer installment 92,569 — 113 — 92,682 Total $ 613,505 $ 2,698 $ 7,156 $ — $ 623,359 December 31, 2021 Pass Special Substandard Doubtful/ Total Commercial (secured by real estate - owner occupied) $ 158,272 $ 390 $ — $ — $ 158,662 Commercial (secured by real estate - non-owner occupied) 98,269 2,352 3,421 — 104,042 Commercial and industrial 151,983 — 852 — 152,835 Paycheck Protection Program 17,883 — — — 17,883 Construction, land and acquisition & development 16,005 312 — — 16,317 Residential mortgage 59,080 — 3,985 — 63,065 Consumer installment 71,440 — 140 — 71,580 Total $ 572,932 $ 3,054 $ 8,398 $ — $ 584,384 |
