The following table presents loans receivable for each portfolio segment of loans: (Dollars in thousands) December 31, December 31, Residential real estate $ 802,508 926,388 Commercial real estate 6,315,895 5,579,307 Other commercial 3,054,817 2,094,254 Home equity 636,405 617,201 Other consumer 313,071 295,660 Loans receivable 11,122,696 9,512,810 Allowance for credit losses (158,243) (124,490) Loans receivable, net $ 10,964,453 9,388,320 Net deferred origination (fees) costs included in loans receivable $ (26,709) (6,964) Net purchase accounting (discounts) premiums included in loans receivable $ (17,091) (21,574) Accrued interest receivable on loans $ 53,538 40,962 Substantially all of the Company’s loans receivable are with borrowers in the Company’s geographic market areas. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of borrowers’ ability to service their obligations is dependent upon the economic performance in the Company’s market areas. Other than purchases through bank acquisitions, the Company had no significant purchases or sales of portfolio loans or reclassification of loans held for investment to loans held for sale during 2020, 2019 and 2018. At December 31, 2020, the Company had loans of $6,707,315,000 pledged as collateral for FHLB advances and FRB discount window. The Company is subject to regulatory limits for the amount of loans to any individual borrower and the Company is in compliance with this regulation as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. No borrower had outstanding loans or commitments exceeding 10 percent of the Company’s consolidated stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2020. The Company has entered into transactions with its executive officers and directors and their affiliates. The aggregate amount of loans outstanding to such related parties at December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $77,634,000 and $57,825,000, respectively. During 2020, net new loans to such related parties were $35,242,000 and repayments were $15,432,000. In management’s opinion, such loans were made in the ordinary course of business and were made on substantially the same terms as those prevailing at the time for comparable transaction with other persons. Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans Receivable The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on loans. The following tables summarize the activity in the ACL: Year ended December 31, 2020 (Dollars in thousands) Total Residential Real Estate Commercial Real Estate Other Commercial Home Equity Other Consumer Balance at beginning of period $ 124,490 10,111 69,496 36,129 4,937 3,817 Impact of adopting CECL 3,720 3,584 10,533 (13,759) 3,400 (38) Acquisitions 49 — 49 — — — Provision for credit losses 37,637 (4,131) 9,324 29,812 (27) 2,659 Charge-offs (13,808) (21) (3,497) (4,860) (384) (5,046) Recoveries 6,155 61 1,094 1,811 256 2,933 Balance at end of period $ 158,243 9,604 86,999 49,133 8,182 4,325 Year ended December 31, 2019 (Dollars in thousands) Total Residential Commercial Other Home Other Balance at beginning of period $ 131,239 10,631 72,448 38,160 5,811 4,189 Provision for credit losses 57 (163) (2,704) (23) (863) 3,810 Charge-offs (15,178) (608) (2,460) (4,189) (90) (7,831) Recoveries 8,372 251 2,212 2,181 79 3,649 Balance at end of period $ 124,490 10,111 69,496 36,129 4,937 3,817 Year ended December 31, 2018 (Dollars in thousands) Total Residential Commercial Other Home Other Balance at beginning of period $ 129,568 10,798 68,515 39,303 6,204 4,748 Provision for credit losses 9,953 474 4,343 1,916 (471) 3,691 Charge-offs (17,807) (728) (3,469) (5,045) (210) (8,355) Recoveries 9,525 87 3,059 1,986 288 4,105 Balance at end of period $ 131,239 10,631 72,448 38,160 5,811 4,189 As a result of the adoption of the CECL accounting standard, the Company adjusted the January 1, 2020 ACL balances within each loan segment to reflect the changes from the incurred loss model to the current expected credit loss model which resulted in increases and decreases in each loan segment based on, among other factors, quantitative and qualitative assumptions and the economic forecast to estimate the provision for credit losses over the expected life of the loans. During the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a significant increase in the overall ACL and increases and decreases within certain loan segments. In addition, the acquisition of SBAZ resulted in a $4,794,000 increase in the ACL due to the provision for credit losses recorded subsequent to the acquisition date. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly adjusted the economic forecast used in the ACL model including a significant increase in national and regional unemployment rates and a significant decrease in the gross domestic product (“GDP”). The sizeable charge-offs in the other consumer loan segment is driven by deposit overdraft charge-offs which typically experience high charge-off rates and the amounts were comparable to historical trends. The other segments experience routine charge-offs and recoveries, with occasional large credit relationships charge-offs and recoveries that cause fluctuations from prior prior periods. During the year ended December 31, 2020, there have been no significant changes to the types of collateral securing collateral-dependent loans. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company acquired loans through the SBAZ acquisition. Such loans were evaluated at acquisition date and it was determined there were PCD loans totaling $3,401,000 with an ACL of $49,000. There was also a discount associated with such loans of $13,000, which was attributable to changes in interest rates and other factors such as liquidity as of acquisition date.

Collateral-Dependent Loans A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. The collateral on the loans is a significant portion of what secures the collateral-dependent loans and significant changes to the fair value of the collateral can impact the ACL. During 2020, there were no significant changes to the which the collateral secures the collateral-dependent loans, whether due to general deterioration or other reasons. The following table presents the amortized cost basis of collateral-dependent loans by collateral type: December 31, 2020 (Dollars in thousands) Total Residential Commercial Other Home Other Business assets $ 4,325 — 37 4,288 — — Residential real estate 7,148 3,338 1,043 198 2,513 56 Other real estate 16,127 64 14,738 1,086 200 39 Other 36,855 — — 36,469 — 386 Total $ 64,455 3,402 15,818 42,041 2,713 481 Restructured Loans A restructured loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring if the creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider.

Credit Quality Indicators The Company categorizes commercial real estate and other commercial loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their obligations. The following tables present the amortized cost in commercial real estate and other commercial loans based on the Company’s internal risk rating. The date of a modification, renewal or extension of a loan is considered for the year of origination if the terms of the loan are as favorable to the Company as the terms are for a comparable loan to other borrowers with similar credit risk.
