Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND CHANGES IN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
IBERIABANK Corporation is a financial holding company based in Lafayette, Louisiana. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IBERIABANK Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (the Company). Through its subsidiaries, the Company provides a full range of commercial and consumer banking services, including private banking, small business, wealth and trust management, retail brokerage, mortgage, commercial leasing and equipment financing, and title insurance services through locations in Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Mississippi, Missouri, and New York.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes necessary for complete financial statements in accordance with GAAP. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all the significant adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, considered necessary for fair presentation. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. See the Glossary of Defined Terms included in this Report for terms used herein.
Pending Merger
As previously disclosed, on November 3, 2019, the Company entered into a merger agreement to combine with First Horizon National Corporation (First Horizon) in an all-stock merger of equals. On April 24, 2020, the Company received shareholder approval for the merger. The merger is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2020, pending receipt of the remaining regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
Changes in Significant Accounting Policies
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” (ASC 326) which significantly changed the measurement of credit losses for certain financial investments, such as loans (including unfunded loan commitments) and investment securities. See Note, 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a complete discussion. The adoption of ASC 326 impacts the accounting policies for the following: Investment Securities; Loans and Leases; and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses. Other than the accounting policy updates below, there have been no changes to the accounting policies as described in the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K.
Investment Securities
Management determines the appropriate accounting classification of debt and equity securities at the time of acquisition and re-evaluates such designations at least quarterly. Debt securities that management has the ability and intent to hold to maturity are classified as HTM and carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts using methods approximating the interest method. Securities acquired with the intent of recognizing short-term profits or which are actively bought and sold are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value. Securities not classified as HTM or trading are classified as AFS and reported at fair value. The Company evaluates its investment securities portfolio for impairment on a quarterly basis as follows:
HTM Securities:The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses appropriate to absorb estimated lifetime credit losses for HTM securities where there is a risk of credit loss. HTM securities where there is a risk of credit loss are segmented by credit rating and duration and an allowance for expected credit losses is calculated based on external historical loss data, taking into consideration management’s forecast of future economic conditions. The allowance of expected credit losses, if required, is recognized on the consolidated balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to earnings.
AFS Securities: Declines in the fair value of individual AFS securities below their amortized cost basis are reviewed to determine if the decline is due to credit-related factors. Impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance for expected credit losses on the consolidated balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to earnings. However, if the Company intends to sell the impaired AFS security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell such a security before recovering the amortized cost basis of the security, the AFS security’s amortized cost basis is reduced by the decline in fair value with the entire credit loss recognized in the consolidated statement of income.
Prior to January 1, 2020, investment securities were evaluated for indicators of other than temporary impairment (OTTI) on a quarterly basis. Declines in the fair value of individual HTM and AFS securities below their amortized cost basis were reviewed to determine whether the declines were other than temporary. In estimating OTTI losses, management considered 1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value had been less than the amortized cost basis, 2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, 3) its intent to sell and whether it was more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell those securities before the anticipated recovery of the amortized cost basis, and 4) for debt securities, the recovery of contractual principal and interest. For securities that the Company did not expect to sell, or it was not more likely than not it would be required to sell prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the credit component of an OTTI was recognized in earnings and the non-credit component was recognized in OCI. For securities that the Company did expect to sell, or it was more likely than not that it would be required to sell prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, both the credit and non-credit component of an OTTI were recognized in earnings. Subsequent to recognition of OTTI, an increase in expected cash flows was recognized as a yield adjustment over the remaining expected life of the security based on an evaluation of the nature of the increase.
Other equity securities primarily consist of stock acquired for regulatory purposes, such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock and are included in “other assets.”
Gains or losses on securities sold are recorded on the trade date, using the specific identification method.
Loans and Leases
Loans
The Company offers commercial and consumer loans for its customers. Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at amortized cost, which represents the principal amount outstanding less charge-offs, net of any unearned income, unamortized net loan origination fees and direct costs on originated loans, and net premiums or discounts on acquired loans. Interest income is accrued as earned over the term of the loans based on the principal balance outstanding. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield. Accrued interest is reported within other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.
Acquired loans are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. The determination of fair value includes credit risk assumptions and any resulting credit discounts as well as estimates related to discount rates, expected prepayments, and the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal, interest, and other cash flows. Additionally, at the time of acquisition, acquired loans are classified as either purchased credit deteriorated (PCD) or non-purchased credit deteriorated (non-PCD). Acquired loans which have experienced more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit since origination are classified as PCD Loans. All acquired loans not considered to be purchased credit deteriorated loans are classified as acquired non-PCD Loans. An initial allowance for expected credit losses (AECL) is established at the acquisition date for acquired loans and the classification of PCD or non-PCD determines how the initial AECL is recorded. For PCD Loans, the AECL is recorded with a corresponding increase to the amortized cost basis of the loan by reducing the purchase premium or discount recognized on the acquired loan. For acquired non-PCD loans, the AECL is recorded with a corresponding charge to earnings. Subsequent to acquisition, the AECL for both PCD Loans and acquired non-PCD loans is determined using the same methodology as originated loans. The non-credit related purchase premium or discount on acquired loans is amortized or accreted to income over the estimated life of the loans as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest rate calculated at the acquisition date.
Prior to January 1, 2020, acquired loans that reflected credit deterioration since origination to the extent that it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required payments were classified as purchased impaired loans (“acquired impaired loans”). All other acquired loans were classified as purchased non-impaired loans (“acquired non-impaired loans”). At the time of acquisition, acquired impaired loans were accounted for individually or aggregated into loan pools with similar characteristics. From these pools, the Company used certain loan information to estimate the expected cash flows for each loan pool. For acquired impaired loans, the expected cash flows at the acquisition date in excess of the fair value of loans were recorded as interest income over the life of the loans using a level yield method if the timing and amount of future cash flows was reasonably estimable. For acquired non-impaired loans, the difference between the fair value and unpaid principal balance of the loan at acquisition, referred to as a purchase premium or discount, was amortized or accreted to income over the
estimated life of the loans as an adjustment to yield. Subsequent to acquisition, the Company performed cash flow re-estimations at least quarterly for each acquired impaired loan or loan pool. Increases in estimated cash flows above those expected at the time of acquisition were recognized on a prospective basis as interest income over the remaining life of the loan and/or pool. Decreases in expected cash flows subsequent to acquisition generally resulted in recognition of a provision for credit loss. The measurement of cash flows involved several assumptions and judgments, including prepayments, default rates and loss severity among other factors. All of these factors were inherently subjective and significant changes in the cash flow estimations could result over the life of the loan.
Leases
The Company leases equipment to commercial customers primarily through direct financing and sales-type leases. Equipment financing leases are reported at the net lease investment, which represents the sum of minimum lease payments over the lease term and the estimated residual value, less unearned interest income. Interest income is accrued as earned over the term of the lease based on the net investment in leases. Fees incurred to originate the lease are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield on the lease.
Portfolio Segmentation
The Company’s loan portfolio is disaggregated into two portfolio segments: commercial loans and leases and consumer loans. The Company further disaggregates the commercial loans and leases and the consumer loans portfolio segment into receivable classes for purposes of monitoring and assessing credit quality. Receivable classes within the commercial loan and lease portfolio segment include commercial real estate-construction, commercial real estate-owner occupied, commercial real estate-non-owner occupied, and commercial and industrial, which includes equipment financing leases. Receivable classes within the consumer loan portfolio segment include residential mortgage, home equity, and other consumer.
Prior to January 1, 2020, the Company’s loan portfolio was disaggregated into three portfolio segments: commercial, residential mortgage, and consumer and other loans. Receivable classes within the commercial loan portfolio segment included commercial real estate-construction, commercial real estate-owner-occupied, commercial real estate-non-owner occupied, and commercial and industrial. Receivable classes within the consumer and other loans portfolio segment included home equity, indirect automobile, credit card and other.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
The Company periodically grants concessions to its customers in an attempt to protect as much of its investment as possible and minimize risk of loss. These concessions may include restructuring the terms of a loan to alleviate the burden of the customer’s near-term cash requirements. In order to be classified as a TDR, the Company must conclude that the restructuring constitutes a concession and the customer is experiencing financial difficulties. The Company defines a concession to the customer as a modification of existing terms for economic or legal reasons that it would otherwise not consider. The concession is either granted through an agreement with the customer or is imposed by a court of law. Concessions include modifying original loan terms to reduce or defer cash payments required as part of the loan agreement, including but not limited to:
• | a reduction of the stated interest rate for the remaining original life of the loan, |
• | extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new loans with similar risk characteristics, |
• | reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the loan as stated in the agreement, or |
• | reduction of accrued interest receivable on the loan. |
In its determination of whether the customer is experiencing financial difficulties, the Company considers numerous indicators, including, but not limited to:
• | whether the customer is currently in default on its existing loan(s), or is in an economic position where it is probable the customer will be in default on its loan(s) in the foreseeable future without a modification, |
• | whether the customer has declared bankruptcy, |
• | whether there is substantial doubt about the customer’s ability to continue as a going concern, |
• | whether, based on its projections of the customer’s current capabilities, the Company believes the customer’s future cash flows will be insufficient to service the loan, including interest, in accordance with the contractual terms of the existing agreement for the foreseeable future, and |
• | whether the customer cannot obtain sufficient funds from other sources at an effective interest rate equal to the current market rate for a similar loan for a non-troubled debtor. |
If the Company concludes that both a concession has been granted and the customer is experiencing financial difficulties, the Company identifies the loan as a TDR. Prior to January 2020, all TDRs were considered impaired loans and acquired impaired loans accounted for within pools were not reviewed for TDR classification if modified.
Non-accrual and Past Due Loans and Leases (Including Loan Charge-offs)
Loans and leases are generally considered past due when contractual payments of principal and interest have not been received within 30 days after the contractual due date. Residential mortgage loans are considered past due when contractual payments have not been received for two consecutive payment dates.
Loans and leases are placed on non-accrual status when any of the following occur: 1) the loan or lease is maintained on a cash basis because of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower; 2) collection of the full contractual amount of principal and interest is not expected even if the loan or lease is currently paying as agreed; or 3) when principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more, unless the loan or lease is both well-secured and in the process of collection. Factors considered in determining the collection of the full contractual amount of principal and interest include assessment of the borrower’s cash flow, valuation of underlying collateral, and the ability and willingness of guarantors to provide credit support. Certain commercial loans and leases are also placed on non-accrual status when payment is not past due and full payment of principal and interest is expected, but the Company has doubt about the borrower’s ability to comply with existing repayment terms. Consideration will be given to placing a loan or lease on non-accrual due to the deterioration of the debtor’s repayment ability, the repayment of the loan or lease becoming dependent on the liquidation of collateral, an existing collateral deficiency, the loan or lease being classified as “doubtful” or “loss,” the client filing for bankruptcy, and/or
foreclosure being initiated. For all commercial loans and leases, the determination of a borrower’s ability to make the required principal and interest payments is based on an examination of the borrower’s current financial statements, industry, management capabilities, and other qualitative factors. Loans and leases are evaluated for potential charge-off in accordance with the parameters discussed in the following paragraph or when the loan or lease is placed on non-accrual status, whichever is earlier. Prior to January 1, 2020, acquired impaired loans were placed on non-accrual status when the Company could not reasonably estimate cash flows on the loan or loan pool.
Loans and leases within the commercial portfolio are generally evaluated for charge-off at 90 days past due, unless both well-secured and in the process of collection. Closed and open-end consumer loans and leases are evaluated for charge-off no later than 120 days past due. Any outstanding loan balance in excess of the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell is charged-off no later than 120 days past due for loans secured by real estate. For non-real estate secured loans and leases, in lieu of charging off the entire balance, loans or leases may be written down to the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell if repossession of collateral is assured and in process. Prior to January 1, 2020, acquired impaired loans were not generally evaluated for charge-off.
The accrual of interest, as well as the amortization/accretion of any remaining unamortized net deferred fees or costs and discount or premium, is discontinued at the time the loan or lease is placed on non-accrual status. Accrued but uncollected interest for all loans and leases that are placed on non-accrual status is generally reversed through interest income at 90 days past due. As accrued but uncollected interest is reversed on a timely basis, the Company does not estimate an AECL for accrued interest. Cash receipts received on non-accrual loans or leases are generally applied against principal until the loan or lease has been collected in full, after which time any additional cash receipts are recognized as interest income (i.e., cost recovery method). However, interest may be accounted for under the cash-basis method as long as the remaining recorded investment in the loan is deemed fully collectible.
Loans and leases are returned to accrual status when the borrower has demonstrated a capacity to continue payment of the debt (generally a minimum of six months of sustained repayment performance) and collection of contractually required principal and interest associated with the debt is reasonably assured. Additionally, for a non-accrual TDR to be returned to accrual status, a current, well-documented credit analysis is required and the borrower must have complied with all terms of the modification. At such time, the accrual of interest and amortization/accretion of any remaining unamortized net deferred fees or costs and discount or premium shall resume. Any interest income which was applied to the principal balance shall not be reversed and subsequently will be recognized as an adjustment to yield over the remaining life of the loan.
Individually Assessed Loans and Leases/Impaired Loans
When a loan or lease no longer shares risk characteristics with other loans or leases, it is individually assessed for impairment. While management considers a variety of factors in determining when a loan no longer shares risk characteristics with other loans, generally all TDR and non-accrual loans above certain thresholds are considered to meet this requirement and are individually assessed for impairment.
Impairment losses are measured on a loan-by-loan basis for these commercial and consumer loans and leases, based on either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan or lease’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan or lease is collateral-dependent. This
measurement requires significant judgment and use of estimates, and the actual loss ultimately recognized by the Company may differ significantly from the estimates.
Prior to January 1, 2020, a loan was considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and/or interest in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Generally all TDRs regardless of the outstanding balance amount or portfolio classification, and all acquired impaired loans were considered to be impaired. Loans that experienced insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally were not classified as impaired. Impairment losses were measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and certain residential mortgage or consumer loans, based on either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan was collateral-dependent.
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The Company maintains the AECL at a level that management believes appropriate to absorb estimated lifetime credit losses, including losses associated with unfunded commitments. The AECL includes the allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL) (contra asset) and the reserve for unfunded commitments (liability).
Determination of the appropriate AECL involves a high degree of complexity and requires significant judgment regarding the credit quality of the loan portfolio and management’s view of future economic conditions. Several factors are taken into consideration in the determination of the overall AECL which include, but are not limited to, the overall risk profiles of the loan and lease portfolios, net charge-off experience, the level of loans and leases that require an individual assessment for impairment, the level of non-performing loans and leases, the level of 90 days past due loans and leases, the value of collateral, among other factors. The Company also considers forecasts of future national and regional economic conditions, overall asset quality trends, changes in lending practices and procedures, trends in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio (including the existence and effect of any portfolio concentrations), changes in experience and depth of lending staff, the Company’s legal, regulatory and competitive environment, and data availability and applicability that might impact the portfolio or the manner in which it estimates losses, risk rating accuracy, and risk identification.
The Company has developed multiple current expected credit loss models (ECL Models) which segment the Company’s loan and lease portfolio by borrower type (i.e. commercial and consumer) and loan or lease type to estimate lifetime expected credit losses for loans and leases that share similar risk characteristics. These ECL Models primarily use a probability-of-default methodology to estimate expected credit losses for all loan and lease commitments. Within each ECL Model, PDs and LGDs are established at the individual loan or lease commitment level based on various loan or lease specific characteristics. For commercial loans and leases, these characteristics include customer size, industry sector, geographic region, risk rating and collateral/property type, among others. For consumer loans, these characteristics include geographic region, loan size, customer size, fixed or variable rate, lien position, and FICO score, among others. The ECL Models use both internal and external historical loss data, as appropriate, for all available historical periods and a blend of multiple economic forecasts as approved by ALCO to estimate expected credit losses over a reasonable and supportable forecast period. The ECL Models then revert to longer term historical loss experience on a straight-line basis to arrive at lifetime expected credit losses. The selection of the economic forecasts, the forecast period and reversion period and methodology are reviewed and approved quarterly. The ECL Models also take into
consideration the effects of prepayments and draw-down assumptions for any unfunded commitments, as applicable. Qualitative adjustments are incorporated into the ECL Model-based estimate of expected credit losses to accommodate for the imprecision of certain assumptions and uncertainties inherent in the calculation.
Loans or leases that no longer share similar risk characteristics with other loans or leases in the portfolio must be individually evaluated for impairment. For these loans and leases, the AECL is determined on an individual loan and lease commitment basis, taking into consideration facts and circumstances specific to each borrower. As discussed above, the AECL for individually assessed loans or leases is based on the difference between the recorded investment in the loan or lease and either the estimated net present value of projected cash flows or the estimated value of the collateral associated with a collateral-dependent loan, less cost to sell.
The overall AECL is allocated between the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded commitments based on the loan’s percentage funded and the future funding expectations of the loan.
Prior to January 1, 2020, the allowance for credit losses was maintained at a level appropriate to absorb estimated probable credit losses incurred in the loan portfolio, including unfunded commitments as of the consolidated balance sheet date. The manner in which the allowance for credit losses was determined was based on 1) the accounting method applied to the underlying loans and 2) whether the loan was required to be measured for impairment. The Company delineated between loans accounted for under the contractual yield method, legacy loans (originated loans), acquired non-impaired loans, and acquired impaired loans. Further, for legacy and acquired non-impaired loans, the Company attributed portions of the allowance for credit losses to loans and loan commitments that it measured individually, and groups of homogeneous loans and loan commitments that it measured collectively for impairment.
Prior to January 1, 2020, the allowance for loan losses for all impaired loans (excluding acquired impaired loans) was determined on an individual loan basis, considering the facts and circumstances specific to each borrower. The allowance was based on the difference between the recorded investment in the loan and generally either the estimated net present value of projected cash flows or the estimated value of the collateral associated with a collateral-dependent loan. The determination of the allowance for loan losses for acquired impaired loans prior to January 1, 2020 is further discussed in the “Loans” section of this footnote.
Prior to January 1, 2020, the allowance for loan losses for all non-impaired loans (excluding acquired impaired loans) was calculated based on pools of loans with similar characteristics. The pool-level allowance was calculated through the application of PD and LGD factors for each individual loan. PDs and LGDs were determined based on historical default and loss information for similar loans. For purposes of establishing estimated loss percentages for pools of loans that shared common risk characteristics, the Company’s loan portfolio was segmented by various loan characteristics including loan type, risk rating for commercial, Vantage or FICO score for residential mortgage and consumer, past due status for residential mortgage and consumer and call report code. The default and loss information was measured over an appropriate period for each loan pool and adjusted as deemed appropriate. Qualitative adjustments were incorporated into the pool-level analysis to accommodate for the imprecision of certain assumptions and uncertainties inherent in the calculation.
NOTE 2 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Pronouncements adopted during the quarter ended March 31, 2020:
ASU No. 2016-13, ASU No. 2019-04 (portion related to ASC 326), ASU No. 2019-05, ASU No. 2019-11, and ASU No. 2020-03
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance, along with subsequent related updates issued during 2019, introduces an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses (ECL) rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, such as loans and held-to-maturity (HTM) securities, including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments, such as loan commitments. The measurement of ECL should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics must be grouped together when estimating ECL. In addition, ASC 326 expands credit quality disclosures.
ASC 326 also provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since their origination (purchased credit deteriorated). The initial estimate of expected credit losses for purchase credit deteriorated financial assets is recognized as an AECL with an offset (i.e., increase) to the cost basis of the related financial asset at acquisition.
Additionally, ASC 326 amends the current AFS security impairment model for debt securities. The new model will require an estimate of ECL when the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset. The credit-related impairment (and subsequent recoveries) are recognized as an allowance on the balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to the income statement. Non-credit related losses will continue to be recognized through OCI.
The Company adopted these ASUs as of January 1, 2020 through a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retaining earnings.
Estimation Methodology
The Company has developed multiple current expected credit loss models (ECL Models) which segment the Company’s loan and lease portfolio by borrower type (i.e. commercial and consumer) and loan type to estimate lifetime expected credit losses for loans and leases. The ECL Models primarily use a probability-of-default methodology to estimate expected credit losses. Within each ECL Model, loans and leases are further segregated based on additional risk characteristics specific to that loan or leases type, such as risk rating, industry sector, company and/or loan size, collateral type, geographic location and FICO score. The Company uses both internal and external historical loss data in the ECL Models, as appropriate.
The estimate of expected credit losses is inherently subjective, as it requires management to exercise judgment in determining appropriate factors to be used to determine the allowance. Following are some of the most significant factors used to estimate expected credit losses under ASC 326:
Economic Forecasts: Management selected economic variables it believes to be the most relevant for estimating losses based on the composition of the loan and leases portfolio and customer base, including property values, employment and unemployment levels, oil prices and other key economic measures. The Company considers a variety of economic forecasts and selects multiple economic forecasts it believes represent future changes in macroeconomic
conditions. The Company uses a blend of the selected economic forecasts to estimate credit losses.
Forecast Period: Management believes that it can reasonably forecast credit losses over an eighteen month period, taking into consideration historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. Management will re-evaluate the forecast period on a quarterly basis and may adjust the forecast period in response to changes in the economic environment and other factors.
Reversion Methodology: For contractual periods beyond the eighteen month forecast period, the Company reverts over a twelve-month period to longer term historical loss experience on a straight-line basis to arrive at lifetime expected credit losses. Management will re-evaluate the reversion methodology on a quarterly basis.
Credit losses for loans and leases which no longer share risk characteristics with other loans or leases, primarily non-accrual and TDR loans are individually assessed for impairment. A specific allowance is determined for these loans and leases determined using either the present value of expected cash flows or the fair value of the underlying collateral.
The AECL calculated by the ECL Models for the Company’s loan and lease portfolio is allocated between the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded commitments based on the loan’s percentage funded and future funding expectations of the loan.
The Company elected not to measure an allowance for expected credit losses for accrued interest as its reverses uncollectible accrued interest through interest income in a timely manner. Accrued interest will continue to be reported within other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company did not elect the one-time fair value option transition expedient for financial instruments recorded at amortized cost. Additionally, the Company elected to discontinue the use of pools to account for purchased credit deteriorated financial assets.
ASC 326 also requires an estimate of expected credit losses on the HTM and AFS debt securities portfolios. Most of these portfolios consist of agency-backed securities that inherently have an immaterial risk of loss. For non-agency-backed HTM securities, the Company estimates expected credit losses by segmenting the portfolio by credit rating and duration and applying external historical loss data, taking into consideration management’s forecast of future economic conditions, as discussed above. For non-agency-backed AFS securities where amortized cost exceeds fair value, the Company reviews each security to determine if any portion of the unrealized loss is credit-related.
Impact of Adoption
The impact of the adoption of ASC 326 on the Company’s loan and lease portfolio was as follows:
(in thousands) | December 31, 2019 | | CECL Adoption | | January 1, 2020 |
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses | | | | | |
Real estate - construction | $ | 9,993 | | | $ | 3,332 | | | $ | 13,325 | |
Real estate - owner-occupied | 16,115 | | | (7,536 | ) | | 8,579 | |
Real estate - non-owner occupied | 38,170 | | | 28,859 | | | 67,029 | |
Commercial & industrial | 62,112 | | | (14,656 | ) | | 47,456 | |
Residential mortgage | 10,209 | | | 71,264 | | | 81,473 | |
Home equity | 14,231 | | | 2,808 | | | 17,039 | |
Other consumer loans | 12,395 | | | (1,752 | ) | | 10,643 | |
Total | $ | 163,225 | | | $ | 82,319 | | | $ | 245,544 | |
| | | | | |
Retained Earnings | | | | | |
Increase in allowance for expected credit losses | $ | 82,319 | | | | | |
Balance sheet reclassification | 5,987 | | | | | |
Total pre-tax effect | 88,306 | | | | | |
Tax effect | 20,701 | | | | | |
Decrease to retained earnings | $ | 67,605 | | | | | |
The increase in the AECL primarily relates to required increases for loans previously classified as acquired non-impaired. The AECL for residential mortgage loans increased due to the requirement to estimate lifetime expected credit losses and the remaining length of time to maturity for these loans versus a loss emergence period. The AECL for non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans also increased reflecting higher LGDs under the CECL model. The balance sheet reclassification represents the adjustment to the amortized cost basis of purchased credit deteriorated loans to reflect the addition of the allowance for expected credit losses at the date of adoption. At the time of adoption, the Company recognized the economy was vulnerable to major shocks, fiscal policy missteps, other geopolitical events and the outcome of the pending U.S. elections. The transition adjustment reflected the Company’s view of a relatively stable macroeconomic environment over the next eighteen months. While ASC 326 results in a higher AECL, it does not change the overall credit risk in the Company’s loan and lease portfolios or the ultimate losses therein. The Company expects future changes in the AECL to be more volatile under ASC 326 as the AECL in future periods will be based on a variety of factors, including changes in loan and lease volumes, the credit quality of the loan and lease portfolio, and forecasts of future economic conditions, which are outside of the Company’s control.
The adoption of ASC 326 for the Company’s HTM and AFS debt securities was not material.
ASU No. 2018-13
In August 2018, the FASB released ASU No. 2018-13,Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement,which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods, with early adoption permitted.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13 as of January 1, 2020. While adoption of this ASU will result in changes to existing disclosures, it did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
ASU No. 2018-17
In October 2018, the FASB released ASU No. 2018-17,Consolidation (ASC 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities,which improves the consistency of the application of the variable interest entity (VIE) related party guidance for common control arrangements. This ASU requires reporting entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety (as currently required in GAAP) when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. ASU No. 2018-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. The guidance will be applied retrospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-17 as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Based on the Company’s invested interests at adoption, no transition adjustment was needed.
ASU No. 2019-04
In April 2019, the FASB released ASU No. 2019-04,Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (ASC 326), Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), and Financial Instruments (ASC 825). The amendments in the ASU improve the Codification by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amendments related to the credit losses standard are discussed above under ASU 2016-13.
With respect to hedge accounting, the ASU addresses partial-term fair value hedges, fair value hedge basis adjustments, and certain transition requirements, among other things. For recognizing and measuring financial instruments, the ASU addresses the scope of the guidance, the requirement for re-measurement under ASC 820 when using the measurement alternative, certain disclosure requirements and which equity securities have to be re- measured at historical exchange rates.
Since the Company early adopted the guidance in ASU No. 2017-12,Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activitiesin 2018, the amended hedge accounting guidance in ASU No. 2019-04 is effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning after April 25, 2019 with early adoption permitted on any date after the issuance of this ASU.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-08 as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Pronouncements issued but not yet adopted:
ASU No. 2019-12
In December 2019, the FASB released ASU No. 2019-12,Income Taxes (ASC 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of their initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The ASU also simplifies aspects of the
accounting for enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill.
ASU No. 2019-12 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The transition method for ASU No. 2019-12 varies between the simplification items. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2020-01
In January 2020, the FASB released ASU No. 2020-01,Investments-Equity Securities (ASC 321), Investments- Equity Method and Joint Ventures (ASC 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815): Clarifying the Interactions between ASC 321, ASC 323, and ASC 815, a consensus of the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF). The ASU clarifies that a company should consider observable transactions that require a company to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting under ASC 323 for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with ASC 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. The ASU also clarifies that, when determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options, a company should not consider, whether upon settlement or exercise, if the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method or fair value option.
ASU No. 2020-01 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2020-04
In March 2020, the FASB released ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848),” which provides relief for entities preparing for discontinuation of interest rates such as LIBOR. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions to ease the accounting impacts associated with contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. For contracts, this ASU allows entities to account for certain contract modifications as a continuation of the existing contract without additional analysis. For hedging relationships, this ASU allows hedge accounting to continue when certain critical terms of a hedging relationship charge and assess effectiveness in ways that disregard certain potential sources of ineffectiveness. Additionally, the ASU allows entities to make a one-time sale and/or transfer of certain debt securities from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale or trading.
ASU No. 2020-04 is effective from the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020. An entity may elect to apply the ASU prospectively through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions provided by the ASU do not apply to contract modifications made or hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, with certain exceptions for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company held certain investment securities where amortized cost exceeded fair value, resulting in unrealized loss positions, as shown in the tables above. The Company evaluates its investment securities portfolio for impairment on a quarterly basis.
For HTM securities, the Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses appropriate to absorb estimated lifetime credit losses. HTM securities where there is a risk of credit loss are segmented by credit rating and duration and an allowance for expected credit losses is calculated based on external historical loss data, taking into consideration management’s forecast of future economic conditions.The Company has assessed the risk of credit loss and has determined the allowance for expected credit losses for HTM securities to be immaterial as of March 31, 2020.
For AFS securities, declines in the fair value of individual securities below their amortized cost basis are reviewed to determine if the decline is due to credit-related factors. As of March 31, 2020, unrealized losses on AFS securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers are of high credit quality, management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. Therefore, no allowance for expected credit losses has been recorded for AFS securities as of March 31, 2020 and the unrealized losses are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Prior to January 1, 2020, management evaluated HTM and AFS securities for other-than-temporary impairment. Impairment was considered to be other-than-temporary if the Company (1) intended to sell the security, (2) more likely than not would be required to sell the security before recovering its cost, or (3) did not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis. As of December 31, 2019, the Company did not intend to sell any of these securities, did not expect to be required to sell these securities, and expected to recover the entire amortized cost of all these securities. As a result of the
Company’s analysis, no declines in the estimated fair value of the Company’s investment securities were deemed to be other-than-temporary at December 31, 2019.
At March 31, 2020, 13 debt securities had unrealized losses of 0.82% of the securities’ amortized cost basis. At December 31, 2019, 123 debt securities had unrealized losses of 0.58% of the securities’ amortized cost basis. Additional information on securities that were in a continuous loss position for over twelve months at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is presented in the following table.

Credit Quality Indicators
A substantial portion of the Company’s HTM securities portfolio consists of obligations of state and political subdivisions. The Company monitors the credit quality of these securities through the use of credit ratings on a quarterly basis. The following table summarizes the amortized cost of HTM obligations of state and political subdivisions at March 31, 2020, aggregated by credit quality indicator:

At March 31, 2020, the Company also held HTM residential agency mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost of $15.6 million. This portfolio includes Frannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities which are considered to be government sponsored enterprises (GSEs). While securities issued by GSEs do carry credit risk, the company considered the risks and determined that the risk of credit loss for these securities was zero.
There were no HTM securities on non-accrual or past due status as of March 31, 2020.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities by maturity at March 31, 2020 are presented in the following table. Securities are classified according to their contractual maturities without consideration of principal amortization, potential prepayments or call options. Accordingly, actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities. Weighted average yields are calculated on the basis of the yield to maturity based on the amortized cost of each security.

Collateral-Dependent Loans
Collateral-dependent loans are defined as loans for which repayment is expected to be derived substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Collateral-dependent commercial loans are primarily secured by commercial real estate and to a lesser extent other business assets and residential real estate. The loan-to-value ratio, taking into consideration cost to sell the collateral for commercial collateral-dependent loans is approximately 75% at March 31, 2020. Collateral-dependent consumer loans are secured by residential real estate with a loan-to-value ratio of 70%, taking into consideration the cost to sell the collateral at March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, the Company did not have any collateral-dependent leases.
Acquired Loans
The Company did not acquire any loans during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Prior to January 1, 2020, the Company accounted for acquired impaired loans in accordance with ASC 310-30. The following is a summary of changes in the accretable difference for all loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 during the three months ended March 31, 2019:

Troubled Debt Restructurings
After the adoption of ASC 326, all loans, including acquired loans, meeting the criteria for classification as a TDR since January 1, 2020 are included in the disclosures below. Prior to January 1, 2020, modifications of loans that were accounted for within a pool under ASC Topic 310-30 were not classified or reported as TDRs. As a result, all such acquired loans that would otherwise meet the criteria for classification as a TDR prior to January 1, 2020 were excluded from the disclosures below, which impacts comparability between periods. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no leases which met the criteria to be classified as a TDR.
TDRs totaling $9.8 million and $31.4 million occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, through modification of the original loan terms.
The following table provides information on how the TDRs were modified during the periods indicated:

NOTE 5 - ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES AND CREDIT QUALITY
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses Activity
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13,Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASC 326 replaced the incurred loss model for determining the allowance for credit losses with a current expected credit loss model for financial assets carried at amortized cost, including loans, leases, and loan commitments. ASC 326 requires recognition of lifetime expected credit losses that takes into consideration all available relevant information including details of past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. The transition adjustment on January 1, 2020 resulted in an increase of the AECL of $82.3 million. The increase in the AECL at transition primarily relates to required increases for residential mortgage loans to establish an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses for these longer dated loans as well as an increase on non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans reflecting higher LGDs under the CECL model. See Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, for additional discussion on the adoption of ASC 326. As a result of the adoption of ASC 326, the AECL as of March 31, 2020 and the provision for expected credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not comparable to historical periods.
A summary of changes in the allowance for expected credit losses for the three months ended March 31 was as follows:

The AECL at March 31, 2020 reflects a blend of economic forecasts to estimate expected credit losses over an eighteen month reasonable and supportable forecast period and then reverts to historical loss experience to arrive at lifetime expected credit losses. At January 1, 2020, the Company’s economic forecast assumed a relatively stable macroeconomic environment over the reasonable and supportable
forecast period while recognizing that the economy was vulnerable to major shocks, fiscal policy missteps, other geopolitical events and the outcome of the pending U.S. elections. During the latter part of the first quarter of 2020, the global and U.S. economies experienced substantial disruptions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as continued pressure on oil prices. In light of the deteriorating economic conditions, the U.S. government has taken numerous actions through multiple stimulus packages to support both individuals and businesses during the unprecedented freeze on commerce in the U.S. Uncertainty remains as to the length of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the success of the various stimulus packages to both support the economy during the pandemic as well as restore economic conditions when the pandemic subsides. As a result, the Company has updated its economic forecast to reflect the expected impact of COVID-19 and the possibility of recessionary conditions over the reasonable and supportable forecast period which has resulted in an increase in the AECL at March 31, 2020.

Portfolio Segment Risk Factors
Commercial loans and leases include commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and equipment financing leases. Commercial real estate loans include loans to commercial customers for medium-term financing of land and buildings or for land development or construction of a building. These loans are repaid from revenues through operations of the businesses, rents of properties, sales of properties and refinances. Commercial and industrial loans and leases represent loans to commercial customers to finance general working capital needs, equipment purchases and leases and other projects where repayment is derived from cash flows resulting from business operations. The Company originates commercial and industrial loans on a secured and, to a lesser extent, unsecured basis.
Consumer loans are offered by the Company in order to provide a full range of retail financial services to its customers and include residential mortgages, home equity, credit card and other direct consumer installment loans. Residential mortgage loans consist of loans to consumers to finance a primary or secondary residence. The vast majority of the residential mortgage loan portfolio is comprised of non-conforming 1-4 family mortgage loans secured by properties located in the Company’s market areas and originated under terms and documentation that permit their sale in a secondary market. The Company originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary market areas. Loans in the consumer segment are sensitive to property values, unemployment levels, and other key consumer economic measures. Prior to January 1, 2020, residential mortgage loans were in a separate portfolio segment.
Credit Quality Indicators
For commercial loans and leases, the Company utilizes regulatory classification ratings to monitor credit quality. Loans with a “pass” rating are those that the Company believes will be fully repaid in accordance with the contractual loan terms. Commercial loans and leases that are “criticized” are those that have some weakness or potential weakness that indicate an increased probability of future loss. “Criticized” loans are grouped into three categories: “special mention”, “substandard”, and “doubtful”.
Special mention loans and leases have potential weaknesses that, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the Company’s credit position at some future date. Substandard commercial loans and leases have well-defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful commercial loans and leases have the same weaknesses as substandard loans and leases with the added characteristics that the probability of loss is high and collection of the full amount is improbable. Substandard and doubtful loans are collectively referred to as “classified” loans and leases. Regulatory classification ratings for commercial loans and leases are updated annually.
For consumer loans, the Company utilizes FICO scores to monitor credit quality as these are widely accepted measures of a borrower’s risk of non-repayment over the life of a loan. FICO scores are updated quarterly. Prior to January 1, 2020, the Company’s primary credit quality indicator for residential mortgage and consumer loans was the loan’s payment and delinquency status.
The Company’s investment in loans by credit quality indicator and year of origination is presented in the following tables. Asset risk classifications for commercial loans and leases reflect the classification as of March 31, 2020. FICO scores for consumer loans are updated on a quarterly basis. Credit quality information in the tables reflects the amortized cost basis of all loans, excluding $65.9 million of accrued interest, which is included as a component of other assets in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 6 - GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill
Goodwill allocated to each reporting unit at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is provided in the following table:
(in thousands) | | March 31, 2020 | | | December 31, 2019 | |

LTC | | | 8,545 | | | | 8,545 | |
Total | | $ | 1,235,533 | | | $ | 1,235,533 | |
The Company performed the required annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1, 2019. The Company’s annual impairment test did not indicate impairment in any of the Company’s reporting units as of the testing date.
During the first quarter of 2020 and through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, management evaluated the events and changes in certain circumstances that could indicate that goodwill might be impaired. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on macroeconomic conditions, the unprecedented economic uncertainty, and the significant declines in the Company’s stock price and overall prices in the equity markets, management concluded
that an interim quantitative test was necessary for all reporting units. The Company factored in multiple economic scenarios, in an effort to take into account the unprecedented economic uncertainty, and determined that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. Therefore, the goodwill of each reporting unit was considered not to be impaired as of the testing date. The goodwill impairment evaluation requires management to utilize significant judgments and assumptions which are based on the best information available at the time. Results of future tests, if required, could vary in subsequent reporting periods if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions utilized in completing the evaluations. The conclusion that no impairment exists may change if the pandemic continues for an extended period of time or a recovery in economic activity is delayed.

NOTE 7 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND OTHER HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk, exposures related to liquidity and credit risk, and to facilitate customer transactions. The primary types of derivatives utilized by the Company for its risk management strategies include interest rate swap agreements, interest rate
collars, interest rate floors, interest rate lock commitments, forward sales commitments, written and purchased options, and credit derivatives. All derivative instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as other assets or other liabilities at fair value, regardless of whether a right of offset exists.
Cash flow hedge relationships mitigate exposure to the variability of future cash flows or other forecasted transactions. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements in a cash flow hedge to convert forecasted variable interest payments to a fixed rate on its junior subordinated debt. In addition, the Company has entered into interest rate collars and interest rate floors and designated the instruments as cash flow hedges of the risk of fluctuations in interest rates, thereby reducing the Company’s exposure to variability in cash flows from variable-rate loans.
For cash flow hedges, the effective and ineffective portions of the gain or loss related to the derivative instrument is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings or when the hedge is terminated. In applying hedge accounting for derivatives, the Company establishes and documents a method for assessing the effectiveness of the hedging derivative and a measurement approach for determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge upon the inception of the hedge.
For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recognized in earnings immediately.

The Company has entered into risk participation agreements with counterparties to transfer or assume credit exposures related to interest rate derivatives. The notional amounts of risk participation agreements sold were $251.2 million and $183.2 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Assuming all underlying third party customers referenced in the swap contracts defaulted at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the exposure from these agreements would not be material based on the fair value of the underlying swaps.
The Company is party to collateral agreements with certain derivative counterparties. Such agreements require that the Company maintain collateral based on the fair values of individual derivative transactions. In the event of default by the Company, the counterparty would be entitled to the collateral.
At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was required to post $226.8 million and $79.6 million, respectively, in variation margin payments for its derivative transactions, which is required to be netted against the fair value of the derivatives in other assets or other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not anticipate additional assets will be required to be posted as collateral, nor does it believe additional assets would be required to settle its derivative instruments immediately if contingent features were triggered at March 31, 2020. The Company’s master netting agreements represent written, legally enforceable bilateral agreements that (1) create a single legal obligation for all individual transactions covered by the master agreement and (2) in the event of default, provide the non-defaulting counterparty the right to accelerate, terminate, and close-out on a net basis all transactions under the agreement and to promptly liquidate or set-off collateral posted by the defaulting counterparty. The Company does not offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral or the obligation to return cash collateral against recognized fair value amounts of derivatives executed with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement.
The following table reconciles the gross amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets to the net amounts that would result in the event of offset.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not reclassify into earnings any gain or loss as a result of the discontinuance of cash flow hedges because it was probable the original forecasted transaction would not occur by the end of the originally specified term.
At March 31, 2020, the Company did not expect to reclassify a material amount from accumulated other comprehensive income into interest income over the next twelve months for derivatives that will be settled.
At March 31, 2020 and 2019, and for the three months then ended, information pertaining to the effect of the hedging instruments on the consolidated financial statements was as follows:

Common Stock
In 2019, the Company announced a Board-approved share repurchase program for up to 1,600,000 shares, or approximately 3% of total common shares outstanding at the time of the announcement. The Company did not repurchase any common shares during the three months ended March 31, 2020. At March 31, 2020, there were 1,165,000 remaining shares that could be repurchased under the current plan. No further common stock repurchases are expected due to the pending merger with First Horizon. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company repurchased 387,921 common shares for approximately $29.9 million at a weighted average cost of $77.19 per share.
Regulatory Capital
The Company and IBERIABANK are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy regulations and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and IBERIABANK, as applicable, must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets,
liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company and IBERIABANK met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of March 31, 2020, the most recent notification from the FRB categorized IBERIABANK as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action (the prompt corrective action requirements are not applicable to the Company). To be categorized as well-capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum Total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, Common Equity Tier 1, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed that categorization.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, during the first quarter of 2020, the joint federal bank regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that allows financial institutions to mitigate the effects of the adoption of CECL on regulatory capital. Because the Company adopted CECL as of January 1, 2020, it has elected to mitigate the estimated cumulative effects of adoption on regulatory capital for two years, after which the effects of adoption will be phased-in over a three-year period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. Under the interim final rule, the adjustments to regulatory capital that are deferred until the phase-in period include both the initial impact of the adoption of CECL at January 1, 2020 on retained earnings, as well as 25% of the subsequent change in the Company’s total allowance for expected credit losses during each three-month period of the two-year period ending December 31, 2021. Capital amounts and ratios at March 31, 2020 in the table below reflect the adoption of the CECL regulatory capital adjustment.
The Company’s and IBERIABANK’s actual capital amounts and ratios as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are presented in the following tables:

Minimum capital ratios are subject to a capital conservation buffer. In order to avoid limitations on distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, an institution must hold a capital conservation buffer above its minimum risk-based capital requirements. This capital conservation buffer is calculated as the lowest of the differences between the actual CET1 ratio, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, and Total Risk-Based Capital ratio and the corresponding minimum ratios. At March 31, 2020, the required minimum capital conservation buffer was 2.50%. At March 31, 2020, the capital conservation buffers of the Company and IBERIABANK were 4.48% and 3.94%, respectively.

Fair value option
The Company has elected the fair value option for originated residential mortgage loans held for sale, which allows for a more effective offset of the changes in fair values of the loans and the derivative instruments used to hedge them without the burden of complying with the requirements for hedge accounting. The Company also has a portion of mortgage loans held for investment for which the fair value option was elected upon origination and which continue to be accounted for at fair value at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
The following table summarizes the difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate unpaid principal balance for mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage loans held for investment measured at fair value:

Interest income on mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage loans held for investment at fair value option is recognized based on contractual rates and is reflected in interest income on loans held for sale in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The following table details net gains (losses) resulting from the change in fair value of loans that were recorded in mortgage income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. The changes in fair value are mostly offset by economic hedging activities, with an insignificant portion of these changes attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk.

NOTE 12 - BUSINESS SEGMENTS
Each of the Company’s reportable operating segments serves the specific needs of the Company’s customers based on the products and services it offers. The reportable segments are based upon those revenue-producing components for which separate financial information is produced internally and primarily reflect the manner in which resources are allocated and performance is assessed. Further, the reportable operating segments are also determined based on the quantitative thresholds prescribed within ASC Topic 280,Segment Reporting, and consideration of the usefulness of the information to the users of the consolidated financial statements.
The Company reports the results of its operations through three reportable segments: IBERIABANK, Mortgage, and LTC. The IBERIABANK segment represents the Company’s commercial and retail banking functions, including its lending, investment, and deposit activities. IBERIABANK also includes the Company’s wealth management, capital markets, and other corporate functions. The Mortgage segment represents the Company’s origination, funding, and subsequent sale of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. The LTC segment represents the Company’s title insurance and loan closing services.
Certain expenses not directly attributable to a specific reportable segment are allocated to segments based on pre-determined methods that reflect utilization. Also within IBERIABANK are certain reconciling items that translate reportable segment results into consolidated results. The following tables present certain information regarding operations by reportable segment, including a reconciliation of segment results to reported consolidated results for the periods presented. Reconciling items between segment results and reported results include:
• | Elimination of interest income and interest expense representing interest earned by IBERIABANK on interest-bearing checking accounts held by related companies, as well as the elimination of the related deposit balances at the IBERIABANK segment; |
| |
• | Elimination of investment in subsidiary balances on certain operating segments included in total and average segment assets; and |
• | Elimination of intercompany due to and due from balances on certain operating segments that are included in total and average segment assets. |

NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Off-balance sheet commitments
In the normal course of business, to meet the financing needs of its customers, the Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments, with risk not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The credit policies used for these commitments are consistent with those used for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by its customers under such commitments or letters of credit represents the contractual amount of the financial instruments as indicated in the table below. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of guarantees under commercial and standby letters of credit was $2.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively. This fair value will decrease as the existing commercial and standby letters of credit approach their expiration dates.
At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, the Company had the following financial instruments outstanding and related reserves, whose contract amounts represent credit risk:
(in thousands) | | March 31, 2020 | | December 31, 2019 |
Commitments to extend credit | | $ | 677,297 | | | $ | 806,164 | |
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit | | | 7,006,974 | | | | 7,240,808 | |
Commercial and standby letters of credit | | | 277,415 | | | | 327,336 | |
Reserve for unfunded lending commitments | | | 18,302 | | | | 16,637 | |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Since many of the commitments are expected to be drawn upon, the total commitment amounts generally represents future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral, if any, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.
Unfunded commitments under commercial lines of credit, revolving credit lines, and overdraft protection agreements are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. Many of these types of commitments do not contain a specified maturity date and may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed. See Note 5, Allowance for Expected Credit Losses and Credit Quality, for additional information related to the Company’s reserve for unfunded lending commitments.
Commercial and standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper issuance, bond financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the
same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. When necessary, they are collateralized, generally in the form of marketable securities and cash equivalents.
Legal proceedings
The nature of the business of the Company’s banking and other subsidiaries ordinarily results in a certain amount of claims, litigation, investigations, and legal and administrative cases and proceedings, which are considered incidental to the normal conduct of business. Some of these claims are against entities or assets of which the Company is a successor or acquired in business acquisitions. The Company has asserted defenses to these claims and, with respect to such legal proceedings, intends to continue to defend itself vigorously, litigating or settling cases according to management’s judgment as to what is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.
In July of 2016, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) requesting information on certain previously originated loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) as well as other documents regarding the Company’s FHA-related policies and practices. After the Company complied with the subpoena, attorneys from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) informed the Company in late March of 2017 that a civilqui tam suit had been filed against the Company in federal court involving the subject matter of the HUD subpoena. The HUD lawsuit was settled on December 11, 2017 in the amount of $11.7 million. On February 2, 2018, IBERIABANK filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana (New Orleans) against Illinois Union Insurance Company and Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America in an effort to recover the $11.7 million it paid to settle the HUD matter. IBERIABANK filed that lawsuit to recover the insurance proceeds to which it claims to be entitled under certain Bankers’ Professional Liability insurance policies issued by defendants Illinois Union and Travelers. More specifically, IBERIABANK alleges that the insurers have failed to honor their obligations under the policies to pay IBERIABANK’s losses in connection with the $11.7 million settlement of disputed allegations relating to IBERIABANK’s professional services in connection with certain mortgage loans insured by the FHA. The judge in the federal lawsuit granted motion for summary judgment thereby dismissing the case. The Company appealed that decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The appeal sought reversal of the summary judgment such that the case could be remanded to the district court in an effort to recover the $11.7 million. The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirmed the decision in favor of Illinois Union Insurance Company and Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America.
Four purported holders of IBKC common stock have filed four putative stockholder class action complaints against IBKC and the members of IBKC’s board of directors. The complaints are captioned as follows:Wang v. IBKC, et al.,No. 20-0105-LAP (S.D.N.Y filed January 6, 2020);Parshall v. IBKC, et al., No.20-00027-LPS (D. Del. filed January 8, 2020, includes First Horizon as a Defendant);Hertz v. IBKC, et al., No. 20-00267-MKB-LB (E.D.N.Y filed January 16, 2020); andCooksey v. IBKC, et al., No. 20-00431-FB-RER (E.D.N.Y. filed January 26, 2020). The complaints assert claims under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 thereunder against IBKC and the members of IBKC’s Board of Directors and under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the members of IBKC’s Board of Directors for allegedly disseminating a false and misleading registration statement on Form S-4, filed by First Horizon with the SEC on December 31, 2019. Among other remedies, the plaintiffs sought to enjoin the merger and any shareholder vote on the merger and rescind the merger or recover damages in the event the
merger is completed. All four of these complaints against IBKC and the members of IBKC’s board of directors have recently been dismissed.
The Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements. These legal reserves may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable or the amount of loss is not estimable, the Company does not accrue legal reserves. While the outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, based on information currently available and available insurance coverage, the Company’s management believes that it has established appropriate legal reserves. Any incremental liabilities arising from pending legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
As of the date of this filing, the Company believes the amount of losses associated with legal proceedings that is reasonably possible to incur above amounts already accrued and reported as of March 31, 2020 is not material.
