LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES | NOTE 3. LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES We evaluate risk characteristics of loans based on regulatory call report code with segmentation based on the underlying collateral for certain loan types. The following is a summary of total loans by regulatory call report code segmentation based on underlying collateral for certain loan types: September 30, December 31, (in thousands) 2022 2021 Commercial construction $ 97,156 $ 56,263 Commercial real estate owner occupied 256,475 257,122 Commercial real estate non-owner occupied 1,081,924 887,092 Tax exempt 41,622 41,280 Commercial and industrial 319,645 307,112 Residential real estate 953,113 888,263 Home equity 92,296 86,657 Consumer other 8,133 8,121 Total loans 2,850,364 2,531,910 Allowance for credit losses 25,018 22,718 Net loans $ 2,825,346 $ 2,509,192 Total unamortized net costs and premiums included in loan totals were as follows: September 30, December 31, (in thousands) 2022 2021 Net unamortized loan origination costs $ 3,367 $ 3,014 Net unamortized fair value discount on acquired loans (3,898) (4,758) Total $ (531) $ (1,744) We exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of loans disclosed throughout this footnote. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, accrued interest receivable for loans totaled $8.8 million and $6.3 million, respectively, and is included in the “other assets” line item on the consolidated balance sheets. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) and subsequent legislation established the Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) are administered directly by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). As of September 30, 2022, we had no remaining PPP loans and as of December 31, 2021, we had 61 PPP loans outstanding, with an outstanding principal balance of $6.7 million. PPP loans are included in the commercial and industrial portfolio segment. Characteristics of each loan portfolio segment are as follows: Commercial construction Commercial real estate owner occupied and non-owner occupied Tax Exempt Commercial and industrial loans Residential real estate Home equity - Consumer other Allowance for Credit Losses The Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) is comprised of the allowance for loan losses and the allowance for unfunded commitments which is accounted for as a separate liability in other liabilities on the balance sheet. The level of the ACL represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses over the expected life of the loans at the balance sheet date. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans, or portions thereof, are charged off against the allowance when they are deemed uncollectible. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged off. The ACL is comprised of reserves measured on a collective (pool) basis based on a lifetime loss-rate model when similar risk characteristics exist. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis, generally larger non-accruing commercial loans and TDRs.

basis. For loans that are individually evaluated and collateral dependent, financial loans where we have determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and we expect repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the measurement date. The following table presents the amortized cost basis of collateral-dependent loans by loan portfolio segment for the periods ended.

These concessions typically result from loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as non-performing at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months. TDRs are evaluated individually for impairment and may result in a specific allowance amount allocated to an individual loan. There were no modifications qualifying as TDR’s for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Foreclosure Residential mortgage loans collateralized by real estate that are in the process of foreclosure as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaled $249 thousand and $574 thousand, respectively. Mortgage Banking Loans held for sale had at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 had an unpaid principal balance of $987 thousand and $5.4 million, respectively. The interest rate exposure on loans held for sale are mitigated through forward delivery commitments with certain approved secondary market investors. Forward delivery commitments had a notional amount of $200 thousand, and $14.8 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Refer to Note 8 for further discussion of forward delivery commitments. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we sold $5.2 million and $28.5 million, respectively, of residential mortgage loans on the secondary market, which resulted in a net loss on sale of loans (net of costs, including direct and indirect origination costs) of $52 thousand and a gain of $682 thousand, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we sold $38.2 million and $153.8 million, respectively, of residential mortgage loans on the secondary market, which resulted in a net gain on sale of loans (net of costs, including direct and indirect origination costs) of $281 thousand and $3.6 million, respectively. We sell residential loans on the secondary market while primarily retaining the servicing of these loans. Servicing sold loans helps to maintain customer relationships and earn fees over the servicing period. Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The risks inherent in servicing assets relate primarily to level of prepayments that result from shifts in interest rates. We obtain third-party valuations of our servicing assets portfolio quarterly, and the assumptions are reflected in Fair Value disclosures. |
