    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
    June 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
    1. Principles of Consolidation and Presentation
    The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Commerce Bancshares, Inc. and all majority-owned subsidiaries (the Company). Most of the Company's operations are conducted by its subsidiary bank, Commerce Bank (the Bank). The consolidated financial statements in this report have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications were made to 2021 data to conform to current year presentation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheets and revenues and expenses for the periods. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Management has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure. The results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be attained for the full year or any other interim period.

    The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, containing the latest audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

    Allowance for credit losses
    The allowance for credit losses is measured using an average historical loss model which incorporates relevant information about past events (including historical credit loss experience on loans with similar risk characteristics), current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the remaining cash flows over the contractual term of the loans. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis. Loans are aggregated into pools based on similar risk characteristics including borrower type, collateral type and expected credit loss patterns. Loans that do not share similar risk characteristics, primarily large loans on non-accrual status, are evaluated on an individual basis.

    For loans evaluated for credit losses on a collective basis, average historical loss rates are calculated for each pool using the Company’s historical net charge-offs (combined charge-offs and recoveries by observable historical reporting period) and outstanding loan balances during a lookback period. Lookback periods can be different based on the individual pool and represent management’s credit expectations for the pool of loans over the remaining contractual life. In certain loan pools, if the Company’s own historical loss rate is not reflective of the loss expectations, the historical loss rate is augmented by industry and peer data. The calculated average net charge-off rate is then adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. These adjustments increase or decrease the average historical loss rate to reflect expectations of future losses given a single path economic forecast of key macroeconomic variables including GDP, disposable income, various interest rates, unemployment rate, consumer price index (CPI) inflation rate, housing price index (HPI), commercial real estate price index (CREPI) and market volatility. The adjustments are based on results from various regression models projecting the impact of the macroeconomic variables to loss rates. The forecast is used for a reasonable and supportable period before reverting back to historical averages using a straight-line method. The forecast adjusted loss rate is applied to the amortized cost of loans over the remaining contractual lives, adjusted for expected prepayments. The contractual term excludes expected extensions (except for contractual extensions at the option of the customer), renewals and modifications unless there is a reasonable expectation that a troubled debt restructuring will be executed. Credit cards and certain similar consumer lines of credit do not have stated maturities and therefore, for these loan classes, remaining contractual lives are determined by estimating future cash flows expected to be received from customers until payments have been fully allocated to outstanding balances. Additionally, the allowance for credit losses considers other qualitative factors not included in historical loss rates or macroeconomic forecast such as changes in portfolio composition, underwriting practices, or significant unique events or conditions.

    Key assumptions in the Company’s allowance for credit loss model include the economic forecast, the reasonable and supportable period, forecasted macro-economic variables, prepayment assumptions and qualitative factors applied for portfolio composition changes, underwriting practices, or significant unique events or conditions. The assumptions utilized in estimating the Company’s allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022 are discussed below.

    Key AssumptionJune 30, 2022March 31, 2022
    Overall economic forecast
    •Positive economic momentum faced with continued COVID challenges, supply constraints and high inflation
    •Continued monetary policy tightening to rein in inflation
    •Uncertainties related to supply chain issues and the timing and likelihood of a recession
    •Improving health situation supports positive economic momentum in the short term
    •Projects significant monetary policy tightening to rein in inflation
    •Projects continued high inflation
    •Uncertainties related to supply chain issues
    Reasonable and supportable period and related reversion period
    •One year for commercial and personal banking loans
    •Reversion to historical average loss rates within two quarters using straight-line method
    •One year for commercial and personal banking loans
    •Reversion to historical average loss rates within two quarters using straight-line method
    Forecasted macro-economic variables
    •Unemployment rate ranging from 3.5% to 3.7% during the supportable forecast period
    •Real GDP growth ranging from 1.5% to 2.7%
    •Prime rate from 4.9% to 6.2%
    •Unemployment rate ranging from 3.6% to 3.4% during the supportable forecast period
    •Real GDP growth ranging from 2.6% to 3.7%
    •Prime rate from 4.0% to 5.2%
    Prepayment assumptions
    Commercial loans
    •5% for most loan pools
    Personal banking loans
    •Ranging from 28.5% to 16.5% for most loan pools
    •67.0% for consumer credit cards
    Commercial loans
    •5% for most loan pools
    Personal banking loans
    •Ranging from 28.3% to 16.5% for most loan pools
    •66.0% for consumer credit cards
    Qualitative factors
    Added qualitative factors related to:
    •Certain portfolios sensitive to pandemic economic uncertainties
    •Changes in the composition of the loan portfolios
    •Uncertainty related to unusually high rate of inflation, geopolitical environment, and supply chain issues
    •Loans downgraded to special mention, substandard, or non-accrual status
    Added qualitative factors related to:
    •Certain portfolios sensitive to pandemic economic uncertainties
    •Changes in the composition of the loan portfolios
    •Uncertainty related to unusually high rate of inflation, geopolitical environment, and supply chain issues
    •Loans downgraded to special mention, substandard, or non-accrual status

    The liability for unfunded lending commitments utilizes the same model as the allowance for credit losses on loans, however, the liability for unfunded lending commitments incorporates an assumption for the portion of unfunded commitments that are expected to be funded.

    Sensitivity in the Allowance for Credit Loss model
    The allowance for credit losses is an estimate that requires significant judgment including projections of the macro-economic environment. The forecasted macro-economic environment continuously changes which can cause fluctuations in estimated expected credit losses.

    The current forecast projects a continued positive economic momentum faced with pandemic complications, high inflation, supply chain constraints, and uncertainty related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The geopolitical environment, trends in health conditions and impacted supply constraints could significantly modify economic projections used in the estimation of the allowance for credit losses and liability for unfunded lending commitments.

    Credit quality indicators
    The following table provides information about the credit quality of the Commercial loan portfolio. The Company utilizes an internal risk rating system comprised of a series of grades to categorize loans according to perceived risk associated with the expectation of debt repayment based on borrower specific information including, but not limited to, current financial information, historical payment experience, industry information, collateral levels and collateral types. The “pass” category consists of a range of loan grades that reflect increasing, though still acceptable, risk. A loan is assigned the risk rating at origination and then monitored throughout the contractual term for possible risk rating changes. Movement of risk through the various grade levels in the “pass” category is monitored for early identification of credit deterioration. The “special mention” rating is applied to loans where the borrower exhibits negative financial trends due to borrower specific or systemic conditions that, if left uncorrected, threaten its capacity to meet its debt obligations. The borrower is believed to have sufficient financial flexibility to react to and resolve its negative financial situation. It is a transitional grade that is closely monitored for improvement or deterioration. The “substandard” rating is applied to loans where the borrower exhibits well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize its continued performance and are of a severity that the distinct possibility of default exists. Loans are placed on “non-accrual” when management does not expect to collect payments consistent with acceptable and agreed upon terms of repayment.

    All loans are analyzed for risk rating updates annually. For larger loans, rating assessments may be more frequent if relevant information is obtained earlier through debt covenant monitoring or overall relationship management. Smaller loans
    13

    Table of Contents
    are monitored as identified by the loan officer based on the risk profile of the individual borrower or if the loan becomes past due related to credit issues. Loans rated Special Mention, Substandard or Non-accrual are subject to quarterly review and monitoring processes. In addition to the regular monitoring performed by the lending personnel and credit committees, loans are subject to review by a credit review department which verifies the appropriateness of the risk ratings for the loans chosen as part of its risk-based review plan.

    The risk category of loans in the Commercial portfolio as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:

    Collateral-dependent loans
    The Company's collateral-dependent loans are comprised of large loans on non-accrual status. The Company requires that collateral-dependent loans are either over-collateralized or carry collateral equal to the amortized cost of the loan. The following table presents the amortized cost basis of collateral-dependent loans as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

    Other Personal Banking loan information
    As noted above, the credit quality of Personal Banking loans is monitored primarily on the basis of aging/delinquency, and this information is provided in the table in the above section on "Credit quality indicators." In addition, FICO scores are obtained and updated on a quarterly basis for most of the loans in the Personal Banking portfolio. This is a published credit score designed to measure the risk of default by taking into account various factors from a borrower's financial history and is considered supplementary information utilized by the Company, as management does not consider this information in evaluating the allowance for credit losses on loans. The Bank normally obtains a FICO score at the loan's origination and renewal dates, and updates are obtained on a quarterly basis. Excluded from the table below are certain personal real estate loans for which FICO scores are not obtained because the loans generally pertain to commercial customer activities and are
    17

    Table of Contents
    often underwritten with other collateral considerations. These loans totaled $186.0 million at June 30, 2022 and $185.6 million at December 31, 2021. The table also excludes consumer loans related to the Company's patient healthcare loan program, which totaled $186.6 million at June 30, 2022 and $186.6 million at December 31, 2021. As the healthcare loans are guaranteed by the hospital, customer FICO scores are not obtained for these loans. The personal real estate loans and consumer loans excluded below totaled less than 7% of the Personal Banking portfolio. For the remainder of loans in the Personal Banking portfolio, the table below shows the percentage of balances outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 by FICO score.

    Troubled debt restructurings
    Restructured loans are those extended to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty and who have been granted a concession. Restructured loans are placed on non-accrual status if the Company does not believe it probable that amounts due under the contractual terms will be collected. Commercial performing restructured loans are primarily comprised of certain business, construction and business real estate loans classified as substandard but renewed at rates judged to be non-market. These loans are performing in accordance with their modified terms, and because the Company believes it probable that all amounts due under the modified terms of the agreements will be collected, interest on these loans is being recognized on an accrual basis. Troubled debt restructurings also include certain credit card and other small consumer loans under various debt management and assistance programs. Modifications to these loans generally involve removing the available line of credit, placing loans on amortizing status, and lowering the contractual interest rate. Certain personal real estate, revolving home equity, and consumer loans were classified as consumer bankruptcy troubled debt restructurings because they were not reaffirmed by the borrower in bankruptcy proceedings. Interest on these loans is being recognized on an accrual basis, as the borrowers are continuing to make payments. Other consumer loans classified as troubled debt restructurings consist of various other workout arrangements with consumer customers.

    Section 4013 of the CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and included a provision that short-term modifications are not troubled debt restructurings, if made on a good-faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to December 31, 2019. The Company elected such option under the CARES Act when determining if a customer’s modification is subject to troubled debt restructuring classification. The initial guidance issued under the CARES Act was due to expire on December 31, 2020. During January 2021, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 was enacted and extended through the end of 2021 the relief offered under the CARES Act related to the accounting and disclosure
    18

    Table of Contents
    requirements for troubled debt restructurings as a result of COVID-19. The Company elected to extend its application of this guidance through December 31, 2021. During the period covered by the CARES Act, if it was deemed that the loan modification was not short-term, not COVID-19 related or the customer does not meet the criteria under the guidance to be scoped out of troubled debt restructuring classification, the Company evaluated the loan modifications under its existing framework and accounted for the modification as a troubled debt restructuring.

    The table below shows the balance of troubled debt restructurings by loan classification at June 30, 2022, in addition to the outstanding balances of these restructured loans which the Company considers to have been in default at any time during the past twelve months. For purposes of this disclosure, the Company considers "default" to mean 90 days or more past due as to interest or principal.

    For those loans on non-accrual status also classified as restructured, the modification did not create any further financial effect on the Company as those loans were already recorded at net realizable value. For those performing commercial loans classified as restructured, there were no concessions involving forgiveness of principal or interest and, therefore, there was no financial impact to the Company as a result of modification to these loans. However, the effects of modifications to loans under various debt management and assistance programs were estimated to decrease interest income by approximately $673 thousand on an annual, pre-tax basis, compared to amounts contractually owed. Other modifications to consumer loans mainly involve extensions and other small modifications that did not include the forgiveness of principal or interest.

    The allowance for credit losses related to troubled debt restructurings on non-accrual status is determined by individual evaluation, including collateral adequacy, using the same process as loans on non-accrual status which are not classified as troubled debt restructurings. Those performing loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are accruing loans which management expects to collect under contractual terms. Performing commercial loans having no other concessions granted other than being renewed at non-market interest rates are judged to have similar risk characteristics as non-troubled debt commercial loans and are collectively evaluated based on internal risk rating, loan type, delinquency, historical experience and current economic factors. Performing personal banking loans classified as troubled debt restructurings resulted from the borrower not reaffirming the debt during bankruptcy and have had no other concession granted, other than the Bank's future limitations on collecting payment deficiencies or in pursuing foreclosure actions. As such, they have similar risk characteristics as non-troubled debt personal banking loans and are evaluated collectively based on loan type, delinquency, historical experience and current economic factors.

    If a troubled debt restructuring defaults and is already on non-accrual status, the allowance for credit losses continues to be based on individual evaluation, using discounted expected cash flows or the fair value of collateral. If an accruing troubled debt restructuring defaults, the loan's risk rating is downgraded to non-accrual status and the loan's related allowance for credit losses is determined based on individual evaluation, or if necessary, the loan is charged off and collection efforts begin.

    The Company had commitments of $15.2 million at June 30, 2022 to lend additional funds to borrowers with restructured loans. Additionally, the Company had commitments at June 30, 2022 of $24.0 million related to letters of credit with an internal risk rating below substandard.

    Loans held for sale
    The Company designates certain long-term fixed rate personal real estate loans as held for sale, and the Company has elected the fair value option for these loans. The election of the fair value option aligns the accounting for these loans with the related economic hedges discussed in Note 11. The loans are primarily sold to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
    19

    Table of Contents
    (FHLMC) and Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA). At June 30, 2022, the fair value of these loans was $1.0 million, and the unpaid principal balance was $1.0 million.

    The Company also designates certain student loan originations as held for sale. The borrowers are credit-worthy students who are attending colleges and universities. The loans are intended to be sold in the secondary market, and the Company maintains contracts with Sallie Mae to sell the loans within 210 days after the last disbursement to the student. These loans are carried at lower of cost or fair value, which at June 30, 2022 totaled $5.4 million.

    At June 30, 2022, none of the loans held for sale were on non-accrual status or 90 days past due and still accruing interest.
    Foreclosed real estate/repossessed assets
    The Company’s holdings of foreclosed real estate totaled $296 thousand and $115 thousand at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Personal property acquired in repossession, generally autos, totaled $1.1 million at both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Upon acquisition, these assets are recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. They are subsequently carried at the lower of this cost basis or fair value less estimated selling costs.

    (1)Accrued interest receivable totaled $41.5 million and $39.5 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and was included within other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

    The Company has elected to measure equity securities with no readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. This portfolio includes the Company's holdings of Visa Class B shares, which have a carrying value of zero, as there have not been observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not record any impairment or other adjustments to the carrying amount of its portfolio of equity securities with no readily determinable fair value.

    Other investment securities include Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) stock, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock, equity method investments, and investments in portfolio concerns held by the Company's private equity subsidiary. FRB stock and FHLB stock are held for debt and regulatory purposes. Investment in FRB stock is based on the capital structure of the investing bank, and investment in FHLB stock is tied to the asset size of the borrowing bank and the level of borrowings from the FHLB. These holdings are carried at cost. Additionally, the Company's equity method investments are carried at cost, adjusted to reflect the Company's portion of income, loss, or dividends of the investee. These adjustments are included in non-interest income on the Company's consolidated statements of income. The Company's private equity investments are carried at estimated fair value.

    The majority of the Company’s investment portfolio is comprised of available for sale debt securities, which are carried at fair value with changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income (OCI). A summary of the available for sale debt securities by maturity groupings as of June 30, 2022 is shown below. The investment portfolio includes agency mortgage-backed securities, which are guaranteed by agencies such as FHLMC, FNMA, and Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), in addition to non-agency mortgage-backed securities, which have no guarantee but are collateralized by commercial and residential mortgages. Also included are certain other asset-backed securities, which are primarily collateralized by credit
    20

    Table of Contents
    cards, automobiles, student loans, and commercial loans. These securities differ from traditional debt securities primarily in that they may have uncertain maturity dates and are priced based on estimated prepayment rates on the underlying collateral.

    Investments in U.S. government and federal agency obligations include U.S. Treasury inflation-protected securities, which totaled $383.7 million, at fair value, at June 30, 2022. Interest paid on these securities increases with inflation and decreases with deflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index. At maturity, the principal paid is the greater of an inflation-adjusted principal or the original principal.

    Allowance for credit losses on available for sale debt securities
    The Company’s model for establishing its allowance for credit losses uses cash flows projected to be received over the estimated life of the securities, discounted to present value, and compared to the current amortized cost bases of the securities. Securities for which fair value is less than amortized cost are reviewed for impairment. Special emphasis is placed on securities whose credit rating has fallen below Baa3 (Moody's) or BBB- (Standard & Poor's), whose fair values have fallen more than 20% below purchase price, or who have been identified based on management’s judgment. These securities are placed on a watch list and cash flow analyses are prepared on an individual security basis. Credit impairment is determined using input factors such as cash flow projections, contractual payments required, expected delinquency rates, credit support from other tranches, prepayment speeds, collateral loss severity rates (including loan to values), and various other information related to the underlying collateral. At June 30, 2022, the fair value of securities on this watch list was $106.4 million compared to $13.4 million at December 31, 2021.

    Significant inputs to the cash flow model used at June 30, 2022 to quantify credit losses were primarily credit support agreements, as the securities on the Company's watch list at June 30, 2022 were securities backed by government-guaranteed student loans and are expected to perform as contractually required. As of June 30, 2022, the Company did not identify any securities for which a credit loss exists, and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not recognize a credit loss expense on any available for sale debt securities.

    The table below summarizes debt securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position, aggregated by length of loss period, for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Unrealized losses on these available for sale securities have not been recognized into income because after review, the securities were deemed not to be impaired. The unrealized losses on these securities are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and current market conditions. Additionally, management does not intend to sell the securities, and it is more likely than not that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery.

    5. Guarantees
    The Company, as a provider of financial services, routinely issues financial guarantees in the form of financial and performance standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Company generally to guarantee the payment or performance obligation of a customer to a third party. While these represent a potential outlay by the Company, a significant amount of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon. The Company has recourse against the customer for any amount it is required to pay to a third party under a standby letter of credit. The letters of credit are subject to the same credit policies, underwriting standards and approval process as loans made by the Company. Most of the standby letters of credit are secured, and in the event of nonperformance by customers, the Company has rights to the underlying collateral, which could include commercial real estate, physical plant and property, inventory, receivables, cash and marketable securities.

    Upon issuance of standby letters of credit, the Company recognizes a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken, which is estimated to be equivalent to the amount of fees received from the customer over the life of the agreement. At June 30, 2022, that net liability was $4.0 million, which will be accreted into income over the remaining life of the respective commitments. The contractual amount of these letters of credit, which represents the maximum potential future payments guaranteed by the Company, was $504.0 million at June 30, 2022.

    The Company periodically enters into credit risk participation agreements (RPAs) as a guarantor to other financial institutions, in order to mitigate those institutions’ credit risk associated with interest rate swaps with third parties. The RPA stipulates that, in the event of default by the third party on the interest rate swap, the Company will reimburse a portion of the loss borne by the financial institution. These interest rate swaps are normally collateralized (generally with real property, inventories and equipment) by the third party, which limits the credit risk associated with the Company’s RPAs. The third parties usually have other borrowing relationships with the Company. The Company monitors overall borrower collateral and at June 30, 2022, believes sufficient collateral is available to cover potential swap losses. The RPAs are carried at fair value throughout their term with all changes in fair value, including those due to a change in the third party’s creditworthiness, recorded in current earnings. The terms of the RPAs, which correspond to the terms of the underlying swaps, range from 2 years to 15 years. At June 30, 2022, the fair value of the Company's guarantee liabilities for RPAs was $162 thousand, and the notional amount of the underlying swaps was $366.2 million. The maximum potential future payment guaranteed by the Company cannot be readily estimated but is dependent upon the fair value of the interest rate swaps at the time of default.

    6. Leases
    The Company has net investments in direct financing and sales-type leases to commercial, industrial, and tax-exempt entities. These leases are included within business loans on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company primarily leases various types of equipment, trucks and trailers, and office furniture and fixtures. Lease agreements may include options for the lessee to renew or purchase the leased equipment at the end of the lease term. The Company has elected to adopt the lease component expedient in which the lease and nonlease components are combined into the total lease receivable. The Company also leases office space to third parties, and these leases are classified as operating leases. The leases may include options to renew or expand the leased space, and currently the leases have remaining terms of 3 months to 5 years.

    8. Common Stock *
    Presented below is a summary of the components used to calculate basic and diluted income per share. The Company applies the two-class method of computing income per share, as nonvested share-based awards that pay nonforfeitable common stock dividends are considered securities which participate in undistributed earnings with common stock. The two-class method requires the calculation of separate income per share amounts for the nonvested share-based awards and for common stock. Income per share attributable to common stock is shown in the table below. Nonvested share-based awards are further discussed in Note 13.

The Consumer segment consists of various consumer loan and deposit products offered through its retail branch network of approximately 150 locations.  This segment also includes indirect and other consumer loan financing businesses, along with debit and credit card loan and fee businesses.  Residential mortgage origination, sales and servicing functions are included in this Consumer segment, but residential mortgage loans retained by the Company are not considered part of this segment and are instead included in the Other/Elimination column.  The Commercial segment provides corporate lending (including the Small Business Banking product line within the branch network), leasing, and international services, along with business and governmental deposit products and commercial cash management services.  This segment also includes both merchant and commercial bank card products as well as the Capital Markets Group, which sells fixed income securities and provides securities safekeeping and accounting services to its business and correspondent bank customers.  The Wealth segment provides traditional trust and estate planning, advisory and discretionary investment management, and brokerage services.  This segment also provides various loan and deposit related services to its private banking customers.

    The following table presents selected financial information by segment and reconciliations of combined segment totals to consolidated totals. There were no material intersegment revenues between the three segments. Management periodically makes changes to methods of assigning costs and income to its business segments to better reflect operating results. If appropriate, these changes are reflected in prior year information presented below.

    The information presented above was derived from the internal profitability reporting system used by management to monitor and manage the financial performance of the Company. This information is based on internal management accounting procedures and methods, which have been developed to reflect the underlying economics of the businesses. The methodologies are applied in connection with funds transfer pricing and assignment of overhead costs among segments. Funds transfer pricing was used in the determination of net interest income by assigning a standard cost (credit) for funds used (provided by) assets and liabilities based on their maturity, prepayment and/or repricing characteristics.

    The segment activity, as shown above, includes both direct and allocated items. Amounts in the “Other/Elimination” column include activity not related to the segments, such as that relating to administrative functions, the investment securities portfolio, and the effect of certain expense allocations to the segments. The provision for credit losses in this category contains the difference between net loan charge-offs assigned directly to the segments and the recorded provision for credit loss expense. Included in this category’s net interest income are earnings of the investment portfolio, which are not allocated to a segment.

    The performance measurement of the operating segments is based on the management structure of the Company and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other financial institution. The information is also not necessarily indicative of the segments' financial condition and results of operations if they were independent entities.

    11. Derivative Instruments
    The notional amounts of the Company’s derivative instruments are shown in the table below. These contractual amounts, along with other terms of the derivative, are used to determine amounts to be exchanged between counterparties and are not a measure of loss exposure. At June 30, 2022, the Company’s derivative instruments are accounted for as free-standing derivatives, and changes in their fair value are recorded in current earnings.

    Forward TBA contracts7,500 21,000 
    Total notional amount$2,857,449 $2,916,181 

    The largest group of notional amounts relate to interest rate swap contracts sold to commercial customers who wish to modify their interest rate sensitivity. The customers are engaged in a variety of businesses, including real estate, manufacturing, retail product distribution, education, and retirement communities. These interest rate swap contracts with customers are offset by matching interest rate swap contracts purchased by the Company from other financial institutions (dealers). Contracts with dealers that require central clearing are novated to a clearing agency who becomes the Company's counterparty. Because of the matching terms of the offsetting contracts, in addition to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, changes in fair value subsequent to initial recognition have a minimal effect on earnings.

    Many of the Company’s interest rate swap contracts with large financial institutions contain contingent features relating to debt ratings or capitalization levels. Under these provisions, if the Company’s debt rating falls below investment grade or if the Company ceases to be “well-capitalized” under risk-based capital guidelines, certain counterparties can require immediate and ongoing collateralization on interest rate swaps in net liability positions or instant settlement of the contracts. The Company maintains debt ratings and capital well above these minimum requirements.

    During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company monetized three interest rate floors that were previously classified as cash flow hedges with a combined notional balance of $1.5 billion and an asset fair value of $163.2 million. As of June 30, 2022, the total realized gains on the monetized cash flow hedges remaining in AOCI was $87.2 million (pre-tax), which will be reclassified into interest income over the next 4.5 years. The estimated amount of net gains related to the cash flow hedges remaining in AOCI at June 30, 2022 that is expected to be reclassified into income within the next 12 months is $24.2 million.

    The Company also contracts with other financial institutions, as a guarantor or beneficiary, to share credit risk associated with certain interest rate swaps through risk participation agreements. The Company’s risks and responsibilities as guarantor are further discussed in Note 5 on Guarantees. In addition, the Company enters into foreign exchange contracts, which are mainly comprised of contracts to purchase or deliver foreign currencies for customers at specific future dates.

    Under its program to sell residential mortgage loans in the secondary market, the Company designates certain newly-originated residential mortgage loans as held for sale. Derivative instruments arising from this activity include mortgage loan commitments and forward loan sale contracts. Changes in the fair values of the loan commitments and funded loans prior to sale that are due to changes in interest rates are economically hedged with forward contracts to sell residential mortgage-backed securities in the to-be-announced (TBA) market. These forward TBA contracts are also considered to be derivatives and are settled in cash at the security settlement date.

    The fair values of the Company's derivative instruments, whose notional amounts are listed above, are shown in the table below. Information about the valuation methods used to determine fair value is provided in Note 17 on Fair Value Measurements in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    Table of Contents
    The Company's policy is to present its derivative assets and derivative liabilities on a gross basis in its consolidated balance sheets, and these are reported in other assets and other liabilities. Certain collateral posted to and from the Company's clearing counterparty has been applied to the fair values of the cleared swaps, such that at June 30, 2022 in the table below, the positive fair values of cleared swaps were reduced by $16.3 million and the negative fair values of cleared swaps were reduced by $929 thousand. At December 31, 2021, positive fair values of cleared swaps were reduced by $587 thousand and the negative fair values of cleared swaps were reduced by $29.7 million.

    The following table shows the extent to which assets and liabilities relating to derivative instruments have been offset in the consolidated balance sheets. It also provides information about these instruments which are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement, irrespective of whether they are offset, and the extent to which the instruments could potentially be offset. Also shown is collateral received or pledged in the form of other financial instruments, which is generally cash or marketable securities. The collateral amounts in this table are limited to the outstanding balances of the related asset or liability (after netting is applied); thus, amounts of excess collateral are not shown. Most of the derivatives in the following table were transacted under master netting arrangements that contain a conditional right of offset, such as close-out netting, upon default.

    While the Company is party to master netting arrangements with most of its swap derivative counterparties, the Company does not offset derivative assets and liabilities under these agreements on its consolidated balance sheets. Collateral exchanged between the Company and dealer bank counterparties is generally subject to thresholds and transfer minimums, and usually consists of marketable securities. By contract, these may be sold or re-pledged by the secured party until recalled at a subsequent valuation date by the pledging party. For those swap transactions requiring central clearing, the Company posts cash or securities to its clearing agent. Collateral positions are valued daily, and adjustments to amounts received and pledged by the Company are made as appropriate to maintain proper collateralization for these transactions. Swap derivative transactions with customers are generally secured by rights to non-financial collateral, such as real and personal property, which is not shown in the table below.

    12. Resale and Repurchase Agreements
    The Company regularly enters into resale and repurchase agreement transactions with other financial institutions and with its own customers. Resale and repurchase agreements are agreements to purchase/sell securities subject to an obligation to resell/repurchase the same or similar securities. They are accounted for as secured lending and collateralized borrowing (e.g. financing transactions), not as true sales and purchases of the underlying collateral securities. Some of the resale and repurchase agreements were transacted under master netting arrangements that contain a conditional right of offset, such as close-out netting, upon default. The security collateral accepted or pledged in resale and repurchase agreements with other financial institutions may be sold or re-pledged by the secured party, but is usually delivered to and held by third party trustees. The Company generally retains custody of securities pledged for repurchase agreements with its customers.

    33

    Table of Contents
    The Company is party to agreements commonly known as collateral swaps. These agreements involve the exchange of collateral under simultaneous repurchase and resale agreements with the same financial institution counterparty. These repurchase and resale agreements have the same principal amounts, inception dates, and maturity dates and have been offset against each other in the consolidated balance sheets, as permitted under the netting provisions of ASC 210-20-45. The collateral swaps totaled $200.0 million at June 30, 2022 and $400.0 million at December 31, 2021.

    The following table shows the extent to which resale agreement assets and repurchase agreement liabilities with the same counterparty have been offset on the consolidated balance sheets, in addition to the extent to which they could potentially be offset. Also shown is collateral received or pledged, which consists of marketable securities. The collateral amounts in the table are limited to the outstanding balances of the related asset or liability (after offsetting is applied); thus amounts of excess collateral are not shown.

    13. Stock-Based Compensation
    The Company issues stock-based compensation in the form of nonvested restricted stock and stock appreciation rights (SARs). Historically, most of the awards have been issued during the first quarter of each year. The stock-based compensation expense charged against income was $4.2 million and $3.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $8.4 million and $7.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

    Nonvested stock awards granted generally vest in 4 to 7 years and contain restrictions as to transferability, sale, pledging, or assigning, among others, prior to the end of the vesting period. Dividend and voting rights are conferred upon grant. A summary of the status of the Company’s nonvested share awards as of June 30, 2022, and changes during the six month period then ended, is presented below.

    Nonvested at June 30, 20221,090,738 $60.62

    SARs are granted with exercise prices equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. SARs vest ratably over 4 years of continuous service and have contractual terms of 10 years. All SARs must be settled in stock under provisions of the plan. In determining compensation cost, the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of SARs on date of grant. The current year per share average fair value and the model assumptions are shown in the table below.

    14. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
    ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" requires revenue recognition for 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. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, approximately 62% of the Company’s total revenue was comprised of net interest income, which is not within the scope of this guidance. Of the remaining revenue, those items that were subject to this guidance mainly included fees for bank card, trust, deposit account services and consumer brokerage services.

    The following table disaggregates non-interest income subject to ASC 606 by major product line.

    15. Fair Value Measurements
    The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Various financial instruments such as available for sale debt securities, equity securities, trading debt securities, certain investments relating to private equity activities, and derivatives are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets and liabilities on a nonrecurring basis, such as mortgage servicing rights and certain other investment securities. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

    Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the Company uses various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value. For accounting disclosure purposes, a three-level valuation hierarchy of fair value measurements has been established. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
    •Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
    •Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly (such as interest rates, yield curves, and prepayment speeds).
    •Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. These may be internally developed, using the Company’s best information and assumptions that a market participant would consider.
    The valuation methodologies for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis are described in the Fair Value Measurements note in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in these methodologies since then.

    16. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
    The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments held by the Company are set forth below. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information. They do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for many of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, risk characteristics and economic conditions. These estimates are subjective, involve uncertainties, and cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

    The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments and the classification of their fair value measurement within the valuation hierarchy are as follows at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

    Item 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
    RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes and with the statistical information and financial data appearing in this report as well as the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results of operations for the six month periods ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be attained for any other period.

    Forward-Looking Information
    This report may contain "forward-looking statements" that are subject to risks and uncertainties and include information about possible or assumed future results of operations. Many possible events or factors could affect the future financial results and performance of the Company. This could cause results or performance to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", variations of such words and other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. Readers should not rely solely on the forward-looking statements and should consider all uncertainties and risks discussed throughout this report. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Such possible events or factors include: changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, governmental legislation and regulation, fluctuations in interest rates, changes in liquidity requirements, demand for loans in the Company's market area, changes in accounting and tax principles, estimates made on income taxes, competition with other entities that offer financial services, cybersecurity threats, and such other factors as discussed in Part I Item 1A - "Risk Factors" and Part II Item 7 - "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Part II Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, there were no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    Critical Accounting Estimates and Related Policies
    The Company has identified certain policies as being critical because they require management to make particularly difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because of the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. These estimates and related policies are the Company's allowance for credit losses and fair value measurement policies. A discussion of these estimates and related policies can be found in the sections captioned "Critical Accounting Policies" and "Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Liability for Unfunded Lending Commitments" in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no changes in the Company's application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2021.

    For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, net income attributable to Commerce Bancshares, Inc. (net income) amounted to $115.8 million, a decrease of $46.5 million, or 28.7%, compared to the second quarter of the previous year. For the current quarter, the annualized return on average assets was 1.36%, the annualized return on average equity was 16.29%, and the efficiency ratio was 57.29%. Diluted earnings per common share was $.96, a decrease of 27.3% compared to $1.32 per share in the second quarter of 2021, and decreased 1.0% compared to $.97 per share in the previous quarter.

    Compared to the second quarter of last year, net interest income increased $24.4 million, or 11.7%, mainly due to an increase of $33.5 million in interest income on investment securities, partly offset by decreases in interest on loans and securities purchased under agreements to resell of $2.1 million and $6.0 million, respectively. The provision for credit losses increased $52.8 million due to an increase in the estimate of the allowance for credit losses on loans and unfunded lending commitments and higher net loan charge-offs, coupled with the release of allowances associated with certain pandemic-related estimates in the prior quarter. Non-interest income increased $284 thousand, or .2%, compared to the second quarter of 2021, mainly due to growth in deposit, bank card, and cash sweep fees, offset by lower loan fees and sales and a fair value adjustment on the Company's deferred compensation plan assets. Net gains on investment securities totaled $1.0 million in the current quarter compared to net gains of $16.8 million in the same quarter of last year. Net securities gains in the current quarter primarily resulted from net fair value gains of $15.6 million in the Company's private equity investment portfolio, mostly offset by losses of $9.6 million on sales of available for sale securities and a $4.3 million loss on the sale of an investment in the Company's private equity portfolio. Non-interest expense increased $15.4 million, or 7.8%, over the second quarter of 2021 mainly due to higher salaries, data processing and software, and travel and entertainment expense.

    Net income for the first six months of 2022 was $233.9 million, a decrease of $59.4 million, or 20.2%, from the same period last year. Diluted earnings per common share was $1.93, a decrease of 18.9% compared to $2.38 per share in the same period last year. For the first six months of 2022, the annualized return on average assets was 1.35%, the annualized return on average equity was 15.28%, and the efficiency ratio was 58.72%. Net interest income increased $27.4 million, or 6.6%, over the same period last year. This growth was largely due to an increase of $55.0 million in interest income on investment securities, partly offset by decreases in interest on loans and securities purchased under agreements to resell of $16.6 million and $11.9 million, respectively. The provision for credit losses was a recovery of $2.7 million for the first six months of 2022, compared to a recovery of $51.9 million in the same period last year, resulting in an increase in provision expense of $49.2 million. Non-interest income decreased $4.0 million, or 1.5%, from the first six months of last year mainly due to lower loan fees and sales and other non-interest income, partly offset by higher trust fees and net bank card fees. Non-interest expense increased $28.5 million, or 7.3%, over the first six months of last year mainly due to increases in salaries and benefits expense and data processing and software expense.

On a tax equivalent (T/E) basis, net interest income totaled $235.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, up $24.0 million over the same period last year and up $23.6 million over the previous quarter. The increase in net interest income
    48

    Table of Contents
    compared to the second quarter of 2021 was mainly due to higher interest income earned on on investment securities (T/E) of $33.3 million, partly offset by lower interest earned on loans (T/E) of $2.2 million and securities purchased under agreements to resell of $6.0 million and higher interest expense on securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $2.4 million. The increase in interest earned on investment securities (T/E) was due to higher average balances and rates, an increase of $3.4 million in inflation income on the Company's U.S. Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS), the receipt of $6.5 million in non-accrual interest on the sale of a private equity investment during the current quarter and a $5.0 million adjustment to premium amortization on mortgage-backed securities. The decrease in total interest earned on loans (T/E) was the result of a decline in average balances, partly offset by higher rates earned, while the decrease in securities purchased under agreements to resell declined due to lower average rates, partly offset by higher average balances. Interest expense on securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased due to higher average rates. The Company's net yield on earning assets (T/E) was 2.79% in the current quarter compared to 2.60% in the second quarter of 2021.

    Total interest income (T/E) increased $26.7 million over the second quarter of 2021. Interest income on loans (T/E) was $143.5 million during the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 1.5%, from the same quarter last year. The decrease in interest income from the same quarter last year was primarily due to a decline of $504.9 million, or 3.2%, in average loan balances, partly offset by an increase of seven basis points in the average rate earned. Most of the decrease in interest income occurred in the business, consumer credit card and consumer loan categories. These decreases were partly offset by increases in interest income in the business real estate and construction and land loan categories. Business loan interest income decreased $6.4 million due to a decline of $826.4 million in average balances. The decline in business loan average balances was mainly due to a decrease of $1.2 billion in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, while interest earned on PPP loans declined $11.2 million from the same quarter last year. Consumer credit card loan interest decreased $931 thousand mainly due to a decline of $38.0 million in average balances, slightly offset by a ten basis point increase in the average rate earned. Consumer loan interest declined $481 thousand due to a decrease of 22 basis points in the average rate earned, partly offset by a $65.9 million, or 3.3%, increase in average balances. Personal real estate loan interest income fell $120 thousand due to a four basis point decrease in the average rate earned, partly offset by higher average balances of $21.2 million. These decreases to interest income (T/E) were partly offset by an increase of $2.8 million in interest earned on construction and land loans, due to an increase of 53 basis points in the average rate earned and growth of $136.8 million, or 12.6%, in average loan balances. In addition, interest earned on business real estate loans increased $3.0 million due to a 21 basis point increase in the average rate earned and higher average balances of $148.6 million, or 4.9%.

    Interest income on investment securities (T/E) was $90.4 million during the second quarter of 2022, which was an increase of $33.3 million over the same quarter last year. The increase in interest income occurred mainly in interest earned on mortgage-backed securities, which increased $17.1 million, partly due to a $5.0 million increase in premium amortization, reflecting slower forward prepayment speed estimates in the current quarter, compared to a premium amortization adjustment decrease of $1.9 million in the prior year. In addition, the average rate earned on mortgage-backed securities increased 88 basis points and the average balance increased $472.8 million, or 7.1%. Interest on U.S. government and federal agency obligations grew $3.9 million mainly due to higher average loan balances of $399.5 million, or 55.5%, and an increase in inflation income on the Company's TIPS, while an overall decrease of 59 basis points in the average rate earned partially offset these increases in income. Interest income related to TIPS, which is tied to the Consumer Price Index, increased $3.4 million over the same quarter last year. Interest on asset-backed securities rose $5.4 million due to higher average balances of $1.4 billion, or 52.2%, coupled with an increase of ten basis points in the average rate earned. Interest earned on other securities increased $6.2 million mainly due to the receipt of non-accrual interest of $6.5 million, mentioned above. The average balance of the total investment portfolio (excluding unrealized fair value adjustments on available for sale debt securities) was $15.4 billion in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $12.9 billion in the second quarter of 2021.

    Interest income on securities purchased under agreements to resell decreased $6.0 million from the same quarter last year, due to a decrease of 343 basis points in the average rate earned, partly offset by growth of $766.2 million in the average balance. Interest income on balances at the Federal Reserve grew $1.7 million due to an increase of 67 basis points in the average rate earned, partly offset by a decrease of $1.5 billion in the average balance invested.

    The average tax equivalent yield on total interest earning assets was 2.86% in the second quarter of 2022, up from 2.64% in the second quarter of 2021.

    Total interest expense increased $2.7 million compared to the second quarter of 2021 due to a increases in interest expense of $121 thousand on interest bearing deposits and $2.6 million on borrowings. The increase in deposit interest expense resulted mainly from an increase of $554 thousand in interest expense on interest checking and money market deposit accounts due to a one basis point increase in the average rate paid and higher average balances of $1.6 billion. Partially offsetting the increase in income earned on interest checking and money market deposits was a lower average rate earned on savings deposits (partially offset by higher average balances), as well as lower average rates earned and lower average balances of certificates of deposit.

    Table of Contents
    Interest expense on borrowings was higher due to an increase of 42 basis points in the average rate paid on customer repurchase agreements. The overall average rate incurred on all interest bearing liabilities was .12% and .07% in the second quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

    Net interest income (T/E) for the first six months of 2022 was $446.4 million compared to $419.8 million for the same period in 2021. For the first six months of 2022, the net interest margin was 2.62% compared to 2.65% for the same period in 2021.

    Total interest income (T/E) for the first six months of 2022 increased $28.4 million over the same period last year mainly due to higher interest income on investment securities (T/E), partly offset by lower interest earned on loans (T/E) and securities purchased under agreements to resell. Loan interest income (T/E) declined $16.6 million, or 5.7%, due to an $805.7 million decrease in average loan balances and a three basis point decrease in the average rate earned. Most of the decrease in loan interest occurred in the business loan category due to lower average balances and rates. In addition, consumer credit card loan interest declined due to lower average balances, partly offset by higher rates earned, while consumer and personal real estate loan interest declined due to lower average rates earned, partly offset by higher average balances. These decreases were partly offset by higher interest earned on business real estate and construction and land development loans due to higher average balances and rates earned. Interest income on investment securities (T/E) increased $54.6 million due to a 42 basis point increase in the average rate earned and a $2.6 billion increase in average balances. Interest earned on U.S. government and federal agency obligations increased $8.6 million, mainly due to higher TIPS interest income. Interest earned on mortgage-backed securities increased $28.9 million due to higher average rates earned and growth in average balances, while interest on asset-backed securities increased $9.2 million due to higher average balances, partly offset by lower average rates earned. Interest income on securities purchased under agreements to resell decreased $11.9 million due to lower rates earned, partly offset by higher average balances, while interest income on balances at the Federal Reserve increased $2.5 million due to higher average rates earned.

    Total interest expense for the first six months of 2022 increased $1.8 million compared to the same period last year. Interest expense on borrowings increased $3.0 million, mainly due to higher rates paid on customer repurchase agreements. This increase was partly offset by a decline of $1.2 million in interest expense on interest bearing deposits, mainly due to a two basis point decrease in the average rate paid. The overall cost of total interest bearing liabilities increased to .09% compared to .08% in the same period last year.

    Summaries of average assets and liabilities and the corresponding average rates earned/paid appear on the last page of this discussion.

    For the second quarter of 2022, total non-interest income amounted to $139.4 million compared to $139.1 million in the same quarter last year, which was an increase of $284 thousand, or .2%. The increase was mainly due to higher bank card and deposit fees, offset by lower loan fees and sales. Bank card transaction fees for the current quarter grew $1.3 million, or 3.0%, over the same period last year, mainly due to growth of $1.6 million in net corporate card fees, partly offset by lower net credit card fees of $393 thousand. The growth in net corporate card fees was mainly due to higher interchange income, partly offset by higher rewards expense, while the decline in net credit card fees was due to higher rewards expense, partly offset by higher interchange income. Trust fees for the quarter increased $535 thousand, or 1.2%, over the same quarter last year, resulting from higher private client fees, which were up 3.1%. Compared to the second quarter of last year, deposit account fees increased $1.6 million, or 6.6%, mainly due to higher corporate cash management fees. Consumer brokerage service fees increased $565 thousand, or 12.5%, due to growth in annuity, advisory, and mutual fund fees, while loan fees and sales decreased $4.2 million, or 56.4%, due to a decline in mortgage banking revenue. Other non-interest income increased $543 thousand, or 4.9%, mainly due to $2.3 million higher cash sweep commissions, $450 thousand higher tax credit sales fees, and income of $2.2 million from a life insurance death benefit. Partly offsetting these increases was a decrease of $3.7 million in fair value adjustments on the Company's deferred compensation plan assets, which are held in a trust, recorded as both an asset and a liability, and affect both other income and other expense.

    Non-interest income for the first six months of 2022 was $271.2 million, compared to $275.2 million in the first six months of 2021, resulting in a decrease of $4.0 million, or 1.5%. Bank card fees increased $5.6 million, or 7.0%, mainly due to growth of $5.1 million in net corporate card fees. Trust fees increased $4.2 million, or 4.7%, mainly due to continued growth in private client trust fees. Deposit account fees increased $1.3 million, or 2.8%, mainly due to higher corporate cash management fees and overdraft and return item fees, partly offset by lower personal account deposit fees. Capital market fees declined $856 thousand, or 10.3%, while consumer brokerage service fees increased $930 thousand, or 10.8%, due to higher advisory and annuity fees. Loan fees and sales decreased $10.1 million, or 57.6%, due to lower mortgage banking revenue. Other income decreased $5.1 million, or 21.6%, due to a gain of $2.4 million on the sale of a branch location recorded last year coupled with a write-down of $965 thousand on a branch location recorded in the first quarter of 2022. In addition, fair value adjustments on the Company's deferred compensation plan assets decreased $5.6 million from the same period last year. Partly offsetting these decreases were $1.9 million higher cash sweep commissions and income of $2.2 million from a life insurance death benefit.

    Net gains on investment securities, which were recognized in earnings during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are shown in the table above. Net securities gains of $1.0 million were reported in the second quarter of 2022, compared to net gains of $16.8 million in the same period last year. The net gains in the second quarter of 2022 were primarily comprised of $15.6 million of net gains in fair value on the Company’s private equity investments, partially offset by losses of $9.6 million and $4.3 million on sales of available for sale securities and a private equity investment, respectively. The Company received $6.5 million in nonaccrual interest, recorded in net interest income, upon the sale of the private investment. The net gains on investment securities for the same quarter last year were mainly comprised of $16.7 million of net gains in fair value on the Company’s private equity investments.

    Net gains on investment securities of $8.2 million were recognized in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net gains of $26.7 million for the same period in 2021. Net gains in the first half of 2022 were mainly comprised of net gains in fair value of $23.1 million on private equity investments, due to fair value adjustments, offset by losses of $9.6 million on sales of available for sale securities, net losses of $4.3 million on sales of private equity investments, and net losses in fair value of $1.0 million on equity investments. Net gains in the first half of 2021 were mainly comprised of a gain of $1.6 million on the sale of a private equity investment and $25.0 million of net gains in fair value on private equity investments. The portion of private equity activity attributable to minority interests is reported as non-controlling interest in the consolidated statements of income and resulted in expense of $3.8 million during the first six months of 2022 and expense of $5.2 million during the first six months of 2021.

    Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2022 amounted to $213.5 million, an increase of $15.4 million, or 7.8%, compared to expense of $198.1 million in the second quarter of last year. The increase in expense over the same period last year was mainly due to higher salaries and benefits expense, data processing and software expense and occupancy expense. Salaries expense increased $10.6 million, or 9.5%, due to growth in full-time salaries expense and an accrual of $5.4 million for special bonuses to be paid to non-incentivized full-time and part-time employees in the second half of 2022. Employee benefits expense totaled $19.9 million, reflecting growth of $862 thousand, or 4.5%, mainly due to higher payroll taxes and 401(k) expense, partly offset by lower healthcare expense. Full-time equivalent employees totaled 4,579 at June 30, 2022, compared to 4,590 at June 30, 2021. Occupancy expense increased $976 thousand, or 8.5%, mainly due to increases in rent expense, outside services expense, depreciation expense, and building repairs and supplies. Equipment expense increased $129 thousand, or 2.8%, while supplies and communication expense increased $328 thousand, or 8.1%, due to higher postage and courier expense and bank card reissuance fees. Data processing and software expense increased $2.7 million, or 10.7%, due to higher software amortization, bank card processing fees and increased costs for service providers. Other non-interest expense

    decreased $383 thousand, or 2.3%, mainly due to a decline of $3.7 million in the deferred compensation adjustment previously mentioned, mostly offset by increases in travel and entertainment expense of $1.3 million, loan collection fees of $430 thousand, and legal and professional fees of $339 thousand.

    Non-interest expense amounted to $419.2 million for the first six months of 2022, an increase of $28.5 million, or 7.3%, over the first six months of 2021. Salaries and benefits expense increased $18.4 million, or 7.1%, mainly due to higher costs for salaries, payroll taxes, 401(k) expense, and the special bonus accrual mentioned above. Occupancy expense increased $1.3 million, or 5.3%, mainly due to higher rent expense, outside services expense, and building repairs and supplies expense, while equipment expense increased $344 thousand, or 3.8%. Marketing expense increased $1.3 million, or 12.4%, while supplies and communication expense increased $916 thousand, or 11.2%, mainly due to higher postage and courier expense and bank card reissuance fees. Data processing and software expense increased $4.2 million, or 8.4%, due to higher costs for service providers, software amortization and bank card processing fees. Other non-interest expense increased $2.0 million, or 6.7%, mainly due to an increase in travel and entertainment expense of $2.4 million, higher loan collection fees, professional and legal fees and insurance expense, in addition to lower deferred origination costs. These increases to expense were partly offset by the previously mentioned fair value equity adjustments (decrease of $5.6 million) on the Company's deferred compensation plan assets.

    To determine the amount of the allowance for credit losses on loans and the liability for unfunded lending commitments, the Company has an established process which assesses the risks and losses expected in its portfolios. This process provides an allowance based on estimates of allowances for pools of loans and unfunded lending commitments, as well as a second, smaller component based on certain individually evaluated loans and unfunded lending commitments. The Company's policies and processes for determining the allowance for credit losses on loans and the liability for unfunded lending commitments are discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements and in the "Allowance for Credit Losses" discussion within Critical Accounting Estimates and Related Policies in Item 7 of the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    Net loan charge-offs in the second quarter of 2022 amounted to $4.0 million, compared to $4.6 million in the prior quarter and $699 thousand in the second quarter of last year. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company recorded net charge-offs on commercial loans of $18 thousand, compared to net charge-offs of $70 thousand in the prior quarter and net recoveries of $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. Business loan net charge-offs decreased $58 thousand in the second quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter, but increased $4.9 million compared to the same quarter in the prior year due to two large recoveries in 2021. Compared to the same period last year, net loan charge-offs in the second quarter of 2022 increased $3.3 million. This increase was primarily driven by the increase in net charge-offs on business loans created by the two non-recurring recoveries, but partially offset by a $2.2 million decrease in net charge-offs on consumer credit card loans.

    For the three months ended June 30, 2022, annualized net charge-offs on average consumer credit card loans totaled 2.19%, compared to 2.53% in the previous quarter and 3.59% in the same period last year. Consumer loan annualized net charge-offs in the current quarter amounted to .12%, compared to .16% in the prior quarter and .08% in the same period last year. In the second quarter of 2022, total annualized net loan charge-offs were .10%, compared to .12% in the previous quarter and .02% in the same period last year.

    For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net loan charge-offs amounted to $8.6 million, compared to $10.7 million during the same period in the prior year. The decrease in net loan charge-offs in the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by a $7.8 million decline in net charge-offs on consumer credit card loans, but partly offset by a $5.0 million increase in net charge-offs on business loans due to the non-recurring recoveries in 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, annualized net charge-offs on average consumer credit card loans totaled 2.36%, compared to 4.81% during the same period last year, while consumer loan annualized net charge-offs in the six months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to .14%, compared to .12% during the same period last year. During the first half of 2022, total annualized net loan charge-offs were .11%, compared to .13% during the same period last year.

    The provision for credit losses on loans was $7.3 million in the current quarter, which was an $18.0 million increase from the $10.7 million benefit recorded in the prior quarter and an increase of $34.7 million over the benefit recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in the provision from the prior quarter was due to higher loan balances and economic uncertainties associated with the possibility of a future recession as inflation rises and supply chain issues continue, coupled with the release of allowances associated with certain pandemic estimates in the prior quarter. The provision for credit losses on loans for the second quarter of the prior year reflected lower than projected net charge-offs and an improved forecast at that point in time. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the provision for credit losses on loans was a recovery of $3.4 million, compared to a recovery of $37.8 million during the same period in the prior year.

    For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the allowance for credit losses on loans decreased $12.0 million, compared to the allowance for credit losses on loans as of December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily the net result of lower than projected net loan charge-offs during the first quarter of 2022 and the improved economic forecast as pandemic economic concerns lessened compared to December 31, 2021, slightly offset by an emerging uncertainty introduced in 2022 related to the geopolitical environment, high inflation, and supply constraints on the economy. The allowance for credit losses on commercial loans decreased by $1.7 million, while the allowance for credit losses related to personal banking loans, including consumer credit card loans, decreased $13.8 million, mostly related to decreases in consumer credit card loans experienced in first quarter of 2022.

    While the forecast reflects a continued economic recovery from the recession driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, the allowance considered the uncertainty of disruptions caused by higher inflation, the geopolitical environment, and ongoing supply constraints on the economy and on the consumer and commercial loan portfolios. At June 30, 2022, the allowance for credit losses on loans amounted to $138.0 million, compared to $134.7 million at March 31, 2022. This increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans compared to the prior quarter is due to the higher loan balances and the economic uncertainties associated with the possibility of a future recession as inflation rises and supply chain issues continue. The allowance for credit losses on loans was $172.4 million at June 30, 2021, reflecting pandemic uncertainties and the economic forecast at that point in time, and was .88%, .87% and 1.10% of total loans at June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

    Table of Contents
    In the current quarter, the provision for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments was a benefit of $125 thousand, reflecting a $953 thousand decrease over the provision in the prior quarter and a $18.1 million increase compared to the second quarter of 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the provision for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments was $703 thousand, compared to a benefit of $14.1 million during the same period in the prior year. At June 30, 2022, the liability for unfunded lending commitments was $24.9 million, compared to $25.0 million at March 31, 2022 and $24.2 million at June 30, 2021. The Company's unfunded lending commitments primarily relate to construction loans, and the Company's estimate for credit losses in its unfunded lending commitments utilizes the same model and forecast as its estimate for credit losses on loans. See Note 2 for further discussion of the model inputs utilized in the Company's estimate of credit losses.

    The Company considers the allowance for credit losses on loans and the liability for unfunded commitments adequate to cover losses expected in the loan portfolio, including unfunded commitments, at June 30, 2022.

    The allowance for credit losses on loans and the liability for unfunded lending commitments are estimates that require significant judgment including projections of the macro-economic environment. The Company utilizes a third-party macro-economic forecast that continuously changes due to economic conditions and events. These changes in the forecast cause fluctuations in the allowance for credit losses on loans and the liability for unfunded lending commitments. The Company uses its best judgment to assess the macro-economic forecast and internal loss data in estimating the allowance for credit losses on loans and the liability for unfunded lending commitments. These estimates are subject to periodic refinement based on changes in the underlying external and internal data.

    Risk Elements of Loan Portfolio
    The following table presents non-performing assets and loans which are past due 90 days and still accruing interest. Non-performing assets include non-accruing loans and foreclosed real estate. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when management does not expect to collect payments consistent with acceptable and agreed upon terms of repayment. Loans that are 90 days past due as to principal and/or interest payments are generally placed on non-accrual, unless they are both well-secured and in the process of collection, or they are personal banking loans that are exempt under regulatory rules from being classified as non-accrual.

    Non-accrual loans totaled $7.9 million at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $1.2 million from the balance at December 31, 2021. The decrease occurred mainly in business loans which decreased $998 thousand. At June 30, 2022, non-accrual loans were comprised of business (79.8%), personal real estate (18.1%), and business real estate (2.1%) loans. Foreclosed real estate totaled $296 thousand at June 30, 2022, an increase of $181 thousand when compared to December 31, 2021. Total loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest were $11.9 million as of June 30, 2022, an increase of $183 thousand from December 31, 2021. Balances by class for non-accrual loans and loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest are shown in the "Delinquent and non-accrual loans" section in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

    In addition to the non-performing and past due loans mentioned above, the Company also has identified loans for which management has concerns about the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms. They are classified as substandard under the Company's internal rating system. The loans are generally secured by either real estate or other borrower assets, reducing the potential for loss should they become non-performing. Although these loans are generally identified as potential problem loans, they may never become non-performing. Such loans totaled $319.2 million at June 30, 2022 compared with $278.7 million at December 31, 2021, resulting in an increase of $40.5 million, or 14.5%.

    At June 30, 2022, the Company had $142.4 million of loans whose terms have been modified or restructured under a troubled debt restructuring. These loans have been extended to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty and who have been granted a concession, as defined by accounting guidance, and are further discussed in the "Troubled debt restructurings" section in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. This balance includes certain commercial loans totaling $126.5 million which are classified as substandard and included in the table above because of this classification.

    Loans with Special Risk Characteristics
    Management relies primarily on an internal risk rating system, in addition to delinquency status, to assess risk in the loan portfolio, and these statistics are presented in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. However, certain types of loans are considered at high risk of loss due to their terms, location, or special conditions. Additional information about the major types of loans in these categories and their risk features are provided below. Information based on loan-to-value (LTV) ratios was generally calculated with valuations at loan origination date. The Company normally obtains an updated appraisal or valuation at the time a loan is renewed or modified, or if the loan becomes significantly delinquent or is in the process of being foreclosed upon.

    Total business real estate loans were $3.2 billion at June 30, 2022 and comprised 20.5% of the Company's total loan portfolio. These loans include properties such as manufacturing and warehouse buildings, small office and medical buildings, churches, hotels and motels, shopping centers, and other commercial properties. At June 30, 2022, 37.4% of business real estate loans were for owner-occupied real estate properties, which have historically resulted in lower net charge-off rates than non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans.

    Revolving Home Equity Loans
    The Company had $271.9 million in revolving home equity loans at June 30, 2022 that were generally collateralized by residential real estate. Most of these loans (92.3%) are written with terms requiring interest-only monthly payments. These loans are offered in three main product lines: LTV up to 80%, 80% to 90%, and 90% to 100%. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal of loans with an original LTV higher than 80% was $29.4 million, or 10.8% of the portfolio, compared to $30.9 million as of December 31, 2021. Total revolving home equity loan balances over 30 days past due were $1.3 million at June 30, 2022 and $1.6 million at December 31, 2021, and there were no revolving home equity loans on non-accrual status at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The weighted average FICO score for the total current portfolio balance is 791. At maturity, the accounts are re-underwritten, and if they qualify under the Company's credit, collateral and capacity policies, the borrower is given the option to renew the line of credit or convert the outstanding balance to an amortizing loan.  If criteria are not met, amortization is required, or the borrower may pay off the loan. During the remainder of 2022 through 2024, approximately 14% of the Company's current outstanding balances are expected to mature. Of these balances, approximately 87% have a FICO score of 700 or higher. The Company does not expect a significant increase in losses as these loans mature, due to their high FICO scores, low LTVs, and low historical loss levels.

    Consumer Loans
    Within the consumer loan portfolio are several direct and indirect product lines, which include loans for the purchase of automobiles, motorcycles, marine and RVs. Auto loans comprised 38.0% of the consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2022, and outstanding balances for auto loans were $794.9 million and $855.4 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021,
    58

    Table of Contents
    respectively. The balances over 30 days past due amounted to $7.6 million at June 30, 2022 and $9.0 million at December 31, 2021, respectively and comprised 1.0% of the outstanding balances of these loans at June 30, 2022 and 1.1% at December 31, 2021, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, $153.5 million of new auto loans were originated, compared to $228.5 million during the first six months of 2021.  At June 30, 2022, the automobile loan portfolio had a weighted average FICO score of 756, and net charge-offs on auto loans were .2% of average auto loans.

    The Company's consumer loan portfolio also includes fixed rate home equity loans, typically for home repair or remodeling, and these loans comprised 11% of the consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2022. Losses on these loans have historically been low, and the Company saw net recoveries of $35 thousand for the first six months of 2022. Private banking loans comprised 34% of the consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2022. The Company's private banking loans are generally well-collateralized, and at June 30, 2022 were secured primarily by assets held by the Company's trust department. The remaining portion of the Company's consumer loan portfolio is comprised of health services financing, motorcycles, marine and RV loans. Net charge-offs on private banking, health services financing, motorcycle and marine and RV loans totaled $779 thousand in the first six months of 2022 and were .2% of the average balances of these loans at June 30, 2022.

    Consumer Credit Card Loans
    The Company offers low promotional rates on selected consumer credit card products. Out of a portfolio at June 30, 2022 of $558.1 million in consumer credit card loans outstanding, approximately $90.4 million, or 16.2%, carried a low promotional rate. Within the next six months, $32.1 million of these loans are scheduled to convert to the ongoing higher contractual rate. To mitigate some of the risk involved with this credit card product, the Company performs credit checks and detailed analysis of the customer borrowing profile before approving the loan application. Management believes that the risks in the consumer loan portfolio are reasonable and the anticipated loss ratios are within acceptable parameters.

    Oil and Gas Energy Lending
    The Company's energy lending portfolio is comprised of lending to the petroleum and natural gas sectors and totaled $289.1 million, or 1.8% of total loans at June 30, 2022, an increase of $28.5 million from year end 2021, as shown in the table below.

    Shared National Credits
    The Company participates in credits of large, publicly traded companies which are defined by regulation as shared national credits, or SNCs. Regulations define SNCs as loans exceeding $100 million that are shared by three or more financial institutions. The Company typically participates in these loans when business operations are maintained in the local communities or regional markets and opportunities to provide other banking services are present. The balance of SNC loans totaled $1.2 billion at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Additional unfunded commitments at June 30, 2022 totaled $1.8 billion.

    Income Taxes
    Income tax expense was $32.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $31.9 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $45.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. The Company's effective tax rate, including the effect of non-controlling interest, was 21.7% in the second quarter of 2022, compared to 21.3% in the first quarter of 2022 and 21.8% in the second quarter of 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, income tax expense was $63.9 million, compared to $77.3 million for the same period during the previous year, resulting in effective tax rates of 21.5% and 20.9%, respectively.

    Financial Condition
    Balance Sheet
    Total assets of the Company were $33.4 billion at June 30, 2022 and $36.7 billion at December 31, 2021. Earning assets (excluding the allowance for credit losses on loans and fair value adjustments on debt securities) amounted to $32.9 billion at June 30, 2022 and $35.5 billion at December 31, 2021, and consisted of 48% in loans and 46% in investment securities at June 30, 2022.

    At June 30, 2022, total loans increased $510.3 million, or 3.4%, compared to balances at December 31, 2021. The increase was mainly due to growth in business real estate, construction and business loans of $156.7 million, $148.0 million and $138.1 million, respectively. The growth in business loans was mainly the result of increased commercial and industrial and commercial card lending, partly offset by declines in tax free and lease loans. Personal real estate loans increased $31.4 million. Consumer loans, which includes automobile, marine and RV, fixed rate home equity and other consumer loans, increased $57.4 million, as declines in auto loans were offset by growth in other consumer loans. These increases were partly offset by a decline in consumer credit card loans of $17.3 million.

    Available for sale debt securities, excluding fair value adjustments, increased $364.2 million at June 30, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021. Purchases of securities during this period totaled $1.9 billion, offset by sales, maturities and pay downs of $1.5 billion. The largest increases in outstanding balances occurred in asset-backed securities, non-agency mortgage-backed securities, and U.S. government and federal agency obligations, which increased $413.4 million, $97.9 million, and $90.1 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in agency mortgage-backed securities of $233.8 million at June 30, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021. At June 30, 2022, the duration of the investment portfolio was 3.8 years, and maturities and pay downs of approximately $2.2 billion are expected to occur during the next 12 months.

    Total deposits at June 30, 2022 amounted to $28.2 billion, a decrease of $1.6 billion compared to December 31, 2021. The decline in deposits largely resulted from a decrease in demand deposits, mainly in business demand deposits (decrease of $1.0 billion). Additionally, certificates of deposit decreased $437.0 million, interest checking deposits decreased $412.2 million, and money market deposits decreased $200.0 million, at June 30, 2022 compared to balances at December 31, 2021. The Company's borrowings totaled $2.2 billion at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $795.2 million from balances at December 31, 2021, mainly due to a decline in customer repurchase agreements.

    Liquidity and Capital Resources

    Federal funds sold, which are funds lent to the Company's correspondent bank customers with overnight maturities, totaled $26.0 million as of June 30, 2022. Resale agreements, maturing through 2025, totaled $1.5 billion at June 30, 2022. Under these agreements, the Company lends funds to upstream financial institutions and holds marketable securities, safe-kept by a third-party custodian, as collateral. This collateral totaled $1.5 billion in fair value at June 30, 2022. Interest earning balances at the Federal Reserve Bank, which have overnight maturities and are used for general liquidity purposes, totaled $685.0 million at June 30, 2022. The fair value of the available for sale debt portfolio was $13.7 billion at June 30, 2022 and included an unrealized net loss of $1.1 billion.

    Approximately $2.2 billion of the available for sale debt portfolio is expected to mature or pay down during the next 12 months, and these funds offer substantial resources to meet new loan demand or help offset potential reductions in the Company's deposit funding base. The Company pledges portions of its investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, trust funds, letters of credit issued by the FHLB, and borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank. Total investment securities pledged for these purposes were as follows:

    Liquidity is also available from the Company's large base of core customer deposits, defined as non-interest bearing, interest checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts. At June 30, 2022, such deposits totaled $27.2 billion and represented 96.4% of total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile, as they are often with customer relationships tied to other products offered by the Company, promoting long lasting relationships and stable funding sources. Certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over totaled $601.5 million at June 30, 2022. These accounts are normally considered more volatile with higher cost and comprised 2.1% of total deposits at June 30, 2022.

    Other important components of liquidity are the level of borrowings from third party sources and the availability of future credit. The Company's outside borrowings are mainly comprised of federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements, as follows:

     Total$2,240,321 $2,320,422 $3,035,527 

    Federal funds purchased are unsecured overnight borrowings obtained mainly from upstream correspondent banks with which the Company maintains approved lines of credit. Repurchase agreements are borrowings by the Company from its customers in the form of securities sold under agreements to repurchase. These repurchase agreements, which generally mature overnight, are comprised of non-insured customer funds totaling $2.2 billion at June 30, 2022 and are collateralized by securities in the Company's investment portfolio. At June 30, 2022, the value of the collateral pledged for the benefit of customers was $2.3 billion. The Company also borrows on a secured basis through advances from the FHLB. The advances are generally short-term, fixed interest rate borrowings. There were no advances outstanding from the FHLB at June 30, 2022.

    Table of Contents
    The Company pledges certain assets, including loans and investment securities, to both the Federal Reserve Bank and the FHLB as security to establish lines of credit and borrow from these entities. Based on the amount and type of collateral pledged, the FHLB establishes a collateral value from which the Company may draw advances against the collateral. Also, this collateral is used to enable the FHLB to issue letters of credit in favor of public fund depositors of the Company. The Federal Reserve Bank also establishes a collateral value of assets pledged and permits borrowings from the discount window. The following table reflects the collateral value of assets pledged, borrowings, and letters of credit outstanding, in addition to the estimated future funding capacity available to the Company at June 30, 2022.

    In addition to those mentioned above, several other sources of liquidity are available. No commercial paper has been issued or outstanding during the past ten years. The Company has no subordinated debt or hybrid instruments which could affect future borrowing capacity. Because of its lack of significant long-term debt, the Company believes that through its Capital Markets Group or in other public debt markets, it could generate additional liquidity from sources such as jumbo certificates of deposit or privately placed corporate notes or other forms of debt. The Company receives strong outside rankings from both Standard & Poor's and Moody's on both the consolidated company level and its subsidiary bank, Commerce Bank, which would support future financing efforts, should the need arise.

    The cash flows from the operating, investing and financing activities of the Company resulted in a net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $3.2 billion during the first six months of 2022, as reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows in this report. Operating activities, consisting mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items, provided cash flow of $286.2 million and has historically been a stable source of funds. Investing activities, which occur mainly in the loan and investment securities portfolios, used cash of $799.4 million. Activity in the investment securities portfolio used cash of $428.4 million from purchases (net of sales, maturities and pay downs), securities purchased under agreements to resell used cash of $200.0 million, and an increase in the loan portfolio used cash of $518.9 million. These cash outflows were partially offset by repayments related to securities purchased under agreements to resell, which provided cash of $375.0 million. Financing activities used cash of $2.7 billion, largely resulting from a decrease in federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $788.7 million, paired with a decrease in deposits of $1.7 billion.

    The Company is subject to a 2.5% capital conservation buffer, which is an amount above the minimum ratios under capital adequacy guidelines, and is required under Basel III. The capital conservation buffer is intended to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Failure to maintain the buffer will result in constraints on dividends, share repurchases, and executive compensation.

    In the first quarter of 2020, the interim final rule of the Federal Reserve Bank and other U.S. banking agencies became effective, providing banks that adopt CECL (ASU 2016-13) during the 2020 calendar year the option to delay recognizing the estimated impact on regulatory capital until after a two year deferral period, followed by a three year transition period. In connection with the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, the Company elected to utilize this option. As a result, the two year deferral period for the Company extended through December 31, 2021. Beginning on January 1, 2022, the Company began to phase in 25% of the previously deferred estimated capital impact of CECL, with an additional 25% to be phased in at the beginning of each subsequent year until fully phased in by the first quarter of 2025.

    The Company maintains a treasury stock buyback program under authorizations by its Board of Directors (the Board) and normally purchases stock in the open market. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company purchased 1,641,610 shares at an average price of $68.96 in open market purchases and through stock-based compensation transactions. At June 30, 2022, 4,155,115 shares remained available for purchase under the current Board authorization.

    The Company's common stock dividend policy reflects its earnings outlook, desired payout ratios, the need to maintain adequate capital and liquidity levels, and alternative investment options. The Company paid a $.265 per share cash dividend on its common stock in the second quarter of 2022, which was a 6.0% increase compared to its 2021 quarterly dividend.

    Material Cash Requirements, Commitments, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contingencies
    The Company's material cash requirements include commitments for contractual obligations (both short-term and long-term), commitments to extend credit, and off-balance sheet arrangements. The Company's material cash requirements for the next 12 months are primarily to fund loan growth. Additionally, the Company will utilize cash to fund deposit maturities and withdrawals that may occur in the next 12 months. Other contractual obligations, purchase commitments, lease obligations, and unfunded commitments may require cash payments by the Company, and these are further discussed in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no changes in the Company's material cash requirements since December 31, 2021. Further discussion of the Company's longer-term material cash obligations is below.

    In the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent liabilities arise which are not required to be recorded on the balance sheet. The most significant of these are loan commitments, which at June 30, 2022 totaled $13.1 billion (including $5.0 billion in unused, approved credit card lines). In addition, the Company enters into standby and commercial letters of credit. These contracts totaled $504.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively, at June 30, 2022. As many commitments expire unused or only partially used, these totals do not necessarily reflect future cash requirements. The carrying value of the guarantee obligations associated with the standby letters of credit, which has been recorded as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet, amounted to $4.0 million at June 30, 2022. The allowance for these commitments is recorded in the Company’s

    liability for unfunded lending commitments within other liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2022, the liability for unfunded commitments totaled $24.9 million. See further discussion of the liability for unfunded lending commitments in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

    During the third quarter of 2020, the Company signed a $106.7 million agreement with U.S. Capital Development to develop a 280,000 square foot commercial office building in a two building complex in Clayton, Missouri, which is expected to be completed near the end of 2022. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has made payments totaling $71.8 million. While the Company intends to occupy a portion of the office building for executive offices, a 15 year lease agreement has been signed by an anchor tenant to lease approximately 50% of the office building.

    The Company regularly purchases various state tax credits arising from third party property redevelopment. These credits are either resold to third parties at a profit or retained for use by the Company. During the first six months of 2022, purchases and sales of tax credits amounted to $62.3 million and $78.9 million, respectively. Fees from sales of tax credits were $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.6 million in the same period last year. At June 30, 2022, the Company expected to fund outstanding purchase commitments of $122.6 million during the remainder of 2022.

    The Company's sound equity base, along with its long-term low debt level, common and preferred stock availability, and excellent debt ratings, provide several alternatives for future financing. Future acquisitions may utilize partial funding through one or more of these options. Through the various sources of liquidity described above, the Company maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately satisfy its financial obligations. The Company is not aware of any trends, events, or commitments that are reasonably likely to increase or decrease its liquidity in a material way.

    Consumer
    For the six months ended June 30, 2022, income before income taxes for the Consumer segment decreased $8.1 million, or 10.9%, compared to the first six months of 2021. The decrease in income before income taxes was mainly due to a decline in non-interest income of $15.9 million, or 21.1%, and higher non-interest expense of $4.1 million, or 2.9%. These decreases to income were partly offset by growth in net interest income of $4.8 million, or 3.0%, and a decrease in the provision for credit losses of $7.1 million, or 45.9%. Net interest income increased due to a $7.8 million increase in net allocated funding credits assigned to the Consumer segment's loan and deposit portfolios and a $1.8 million decrease in deposit interest expense. These increases to income were partly offset by a $4.8 million decline in loan interest income. Non-interest income decreased mainly due to a decline of $14.9 million in mortgage banking revenue. Non-interest expense increased over the same period in the previous year mainly due to higher salaries expense, marketing expense and allocated service and support costs for information

    Table of Contents
    technology and bank card fraud operations, partly offset by lower allocated service costs for branch employees. The provision for credit losses totaled $8.4 million, a $7.1 million decrease from the first six months of 2021, mainly due to lower credit card loan net charge-offs.

    Commercial
    For the six months ended June 30, 2022, income before income taxes for the Commercial segment decreased $22.1 million, or 13.0%, compared to the same period in the previous year. This decrease was mainly due to an increase in non-interest expense and a decline in net interest income, partly offset by an increase in non-interest income. Net interest income decreased $5.6 million, or 2.5%, due to lower loan interest income of $12.8 million and higher interest expense on customer repurchase agreements and deposits of $2.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively. These decreases to income were partly offset by a $10.9 million increase in net allocated funding credits. Non-interest income increased $7.5 million, or 7.3%, over the previous year mainly due to growth in net bank card fees (mainly corporate card fees) and deposit account fees (mainly corporate cash management fees), partly offset by a decline in capital market fees. Non-interest expense increased $19.0 million, or 11.7%, mainly due to higher salaries and benefits expense, data processing and software expense, allocated service and support costs (mainly information technology, branch employee expense and commercial banking and payments expense), and lower deferred origination costs. The provision for credit losses increased $5.1 million over the same period last year, mainly due to lower recoveries on business loans.

    Wealth
    Wealth segment pre-tax profitability for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased $997 thousand, or 1.4%, over the same period in the previous year. Net interest income increased $3.0 million, or 8.5%, mainly due to a $3.1 million increase in loan interest income. Non-interest income increased $3.7 million, or 3.6%, over the prior year largely due to higher trust fees (mainly private client trust fees), cash sweep commissions and brokerage fees, partly offset by lower mortgage banking revenue. Non-interest expense increased $5.7 million, or 8.5%, mainly due to higher salaries and benefits expense, travel and entertainment expense, marketing expense and allocated costs for management fees. The provision for credit losses increased $4 thousand over the same period last year, due to higher overdraft loan net charge-offs.

    The Other/Elimination category in the preceding table includes the activity of various support and overhead operating units of the Company, in addition to the investment securities portfolio and other items not allocated to the segments. In accordance with the Company’s transfer pricing procedures, the difference between the total provision for credit losses and total net charge-offs/recoveries is not allocated to a business segment and is included in this category. The pre-tax profitability of this category was lower than in the same period last year by $43.5 million. Unallocated securities gains were $8.2 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to gains of $26.7 million in 2021. Also, the unallocated provision for credit losses increased $51.3 million, primarily driven by increases in the liability for unfunded lending commitments and in the provision for credit losses on loans, which are both not allocated to the segments for management reporting purposes. Net charge-offs are allocated to the segments when incurred for management reporting purposes. The provision for credit losses on loans was $12.0 million lower than net charge-offs, as the provision was a benefit in 2022, while the provision was $48.4 million lower than net charge-offs, as the provision was also a benefit in 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company's provision on unfunded lending commitments was expense of $699 thousand. These decreases to pre-tax profitability were partly offset by higher net interest income of $25.2 million, non-interest income of $705 thousand, and lower non-interest expense of $295 thousand.

    Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
    Reference Rate Reform The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting", in March 2020, and has been followed by additional clarifying guidance related to derivatives that are modified as a result of reference rate reform. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if they reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Further, the guidance applies to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the new guidance do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated for effectiveness after December 31, 2022, except for certain hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022. In April 2022, the FASB proposed extending the sunset date under Topic 848 to December 31, 2024. The change is to align the temporary accounting relief guidance with the expected cessation date of LIBOR, which was postponed by administrators earlier this year to June 2023, a year after the current sunset date of ASU 2020-04.

    In order to assess the impact of transition and ensure a successful transition process, the Company established a LIBOR Transition Program led by the LIBOR Transition Steering Committee (the Committee), which is an internal, cross-functional
    65

    Table of Contents
    team with representatives from all relevant business lines, support functions and legal counsel. A LIBOR impact and risk assessment has been performed, and the Committee has developed and prioritized action items. All financial contracts that reference LIBOR have been identified and LIBOR fallback language has been included in key loan provisions of new and renewed loans in preparation from transition from LIBOR. The Company ceased originating new loans with LIBOR as a reference rate at the end of 2021 and is actively working with customers to modify existing loans that reference LIBOR to a new reference rate. The Company plans to finish transitioning the impacted loans by late spring of 2023.

    Credit Losses The FASB issued ASU 2022-02, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures", in March 2022. This ASU eliminates the troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance and, instead, requires that an entity evaluate (consistent with the accounting for other loan modifications) whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendments also enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduce new requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The amendments require that an entity disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. The guidance is effective January 1, 2023. The Company is evaluating the guidance to determine the impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

    Fair Value Measurement The FASB issued ASU 2022-03 "Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to
    Contractual Sale Restrictions", in June 2022. ASU 2022-3 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The guidance is effective January 1, 2024. The Company is evaluating the guidance to determine the impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
