Certain loans under extended pandemic-related forbearance were reclassified to nonaccrual status. No interest income on nonaccrual loans was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2022. An immaterial amount of accrued interest was written off on nonaccrual loans by reversing interest income. The Company uses several credit quality indicators to assess credit risk in an ongoing manner. The Company’s primary credit quality indicator for its business lending portfolio is an internal credit risk rating system that categorizes loans as “pass”, “special mention”, “classified”, or “doubtful”. Credit risk ratings are applied individually to those classes of loans that have significant or unique credit characteristics that benefit from a case-by-case evaluation. Loans that were granted COVID-19 related financial hardship payment deferrals were reviewed on a case-by-case basis for downgrades into lower credit risk ratings. Loans on payment deferral will continue to be monitored for indications of deterioration that could result in future downgrades. In general, the following are the definitions of the Company’s credit quality indicators: Pass The condition of the borrower and the performance of the loans are satisfactory or better. Special Mention The condition of the borrower has deteriorated although the loan performs as agreed. Loss may be incurred at some future date, if conditions deteriorate further. Classified The condition of the borrower has significantly deteriorated and the performance of the loan could further deteriorate and incur loss, if deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful The condition of the borrower has deteriorated to the point that collection of the balance is improbable based on current facts and conditions and loss is likely.

A summary of individually assessed business loans as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 follows: March 31, December 31, (000’s omitted) 2022 2021 Loans with allowance allocation $ 5,374 $ 7,102 Loans without allowance allocation 6,812 7,417 Carrying balance 12,186 14,519 Contractual balance 14,613 16,963 Specifically allocated allowance 504 566 The average carrying balance of individually assessed loans was $12.3 million and $34.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. No interest income was recognized on individually assessed loans for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. In the course of working with borrowers, the Company may choose to restructure the contractual terms of certain loans. In this scenario, the Company attempts to work-out an alternative payment schedule with the borrower in order to optimize collectability of the loan. Any loans that are modified are reviewed by the Company to identify if a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) has occurred, which is when, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, the Company grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Terms may be modified to fit the ability of the borrower to repay in line with its current financial standing and the restructuring of the loan may include the transfer of assets from the borrower to satisfy the debt, a modification of loan terms, or a combination of the two. In accordance with the clarified guidance issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), loans that have been discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy but not reaffirmed by the borrower, are classified as TDRs, irrespective of payment history or delinquency status, even if the repayment terms for the loan have not been otherwise modified. The Company’s lien position against the underlying collateral remains unchanged. Pursuant to that guidance, the Company records a charge-off equal to any portion of the carrying value that exceeds the net realizable value of the collateral. The amount of loss incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was immaterial. TDRs less than $0.5 million are collectively included in the allowance for credit loss estimate. Commercial loans greater than $0.5 million are individually assessed, and if necessary, a specific allocation of the allowance for credit losses is provided. With regard to determination of the amount of the allowance for credit losses, TDR loans are considered to be impaired. As a result, the determination of the amount of allowance for credit losses related to impaired loans for each portfolio segment within TDRs is the same as detailed previously. Information regarding TDRs as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is as follows: March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 (000’s omitted) Nonaccrual Accruing Total Nonaccrual Accruing Total # Amount # Amount # Amount # Amount # Amount # Amount Business lending 10 $ 1,002 4 $ 807 14 $ 1,809 10 $ 1,011 4 $ 811 14 $ 1,822 Consumer mortgage 59 2,654 48 2,468 107 5,122 61 2,694 47 2,420 108 5,114 Consumer indirect 0 0 69 746 69 746 0 0 72 829 72 829 Consumer direct 0 0 16 5 16 5 0 0 16 7 16 7 Home equity 10 227 12 225 22 452 10 235 12 232 22 467 Total 79 $ 3,883 149 $ 4,251 228 $ 8,134 81 $ 3,940 151 $ 4,299 232 $ 8,239 The following table presents information related to loans modified in a TDR during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Accrued interest receivable on loans, included in accrued interest and fees receivable on the consolidated statements of condition, totaled $18.1 million at March 31, 2022, and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses and amortized cost basis of loans. Under ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) For qualitative macroeconomic adjustments, the Company uses third party forecasted economic data scenarios utilizing a base scenario and two alternative scenarios that were weighted, with forecasts available as of March 31, 2022. These forecasts were factored into the qualitative portion of the calculation of the estimated credit losses and included the continued impact of COVID-19, such as supply chain pressures and their impact on collateral values and economic growth. The scenarios utilized forecast a generally positive outlook on the economy, with low unemployment figures and high collateral values for housing, commercial real estate, and vehicles. In addition to the economic forecast, the Company also considered additional qualitative adjustments as a result of COVID-19 and the impact on all industries, loan deferrals, delinquencies and downgrades. Management developed expected loss estimates considering factors for segments as outlined below: ● Business lending – non real estate: The Company selected projected unemployment and GDP as indicators of forecasted losses related to business lending, and utilize both factors in an even weight for the calculation. The Company also considered delinquencies, the level of loan deferrals, risk rating changes, recent charge-off history and acquired loans as part of the review of estimated losses. ● Business lending – real estate: The Company selected projected unemployment and commercial real estate values as indicators of forecasted losses related to commercial real estate loans, and utilize both factors in an even weight for the calculation. The Company also considered the factors noted in business lending – non real estate. ● Consumer mortgages and home equity: The Company selected projected unemployment and residential real estate values as indicators of forecasted losses related to mortgage lending, and utilize both factors in an even weight for the calculation. In addition, current delinquencies, the level of loan deferrals, charge-offs and acquired loans were considered. ● Consumer indirect: The Company selected projected unemployment and vehicle valuation indices as indicators of forecasted losses related to indirect lending, and utilize both factors in an even weight for the calculation. In addition, current delinquencies, the level of loan deferrals, charge-offs and acquired loans were considered. ● Consumer direct: The Company selected projected unemployment and inflation-adjusted household income as indicators of forecasted losses related to consumer direct lending, and utilize both factors in an even weight for the calculation. In addition, current delinquencies, the level of loan deferrals, charge-offs and acquired loans were considered. The following table presents the carrying amounts of loans purchased and sold during the three months ended March 31, 2022 by portfolio segment: Business Consumer Consumer Consumer Home (000’s omitted) lending mortgage indirect direct equity Total Purchases $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 Sales 0 2,627 0 0 0 2,627 All the sales during the three months ended March 31, 2022 were sales of secondary market eligible residential mortgage loans. |
