NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of PrivateBancorp, Inc. ("PrivateBancorp" or the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include certain information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for complete annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year or any other period.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we have considered the impact of events occurring subsequent to June 30, 2014 for potential recognition or disclosure.
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects - On January 1, 2014, we adopted new accounting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") related to the accounting for investments in limited liability entities that manage or invest in affordable housing projects that qualify for low-income housing tax credits. The guidance allows the Company to elect to account for investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Additionally, the guidance requires disclosure of (1) the nature of the Company’s investments in qualified affordable housing projects and (2) the effect of the measurement of those investments and the related tax credits on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Prior to the adoption of this new guidance, the Company previously accounted for such investments using the effective yield method. The guidance must be applied retrospectively. As permitted under the new guidance, the Company has elected to continue accounting for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects that existed prior to the date of adoption using the effective yield method. Any new investments in qualified affordable housing projects entered into on or after January 1, 2014 that meet certain conditions will be accounted for using the proportional amortization method. While the guidance affected our disclosures, adoption of the guidance did not impact our financial position or consolidated results of operations. Refer to Note 18 for the required disclosures.
Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption
Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans - In January 2014, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies when the Company should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan receivable should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. The guidance indicates that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar legal agreement. Additionally, the guidance requires disclosure of (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the Company and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s financial statements that include periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or consolidated results of operations.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers - In May 2014, the FASB issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will replace most of the existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. All arrangements involving the transfer of goods or services to customers are within the scope of the guidance, except for certain contracts subject to other U.S. GAAP guidance, including lease contracts and rights and obligations related to financial instruments. The standard’s core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also includes new disclosure requirements related to the nature, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s financial statements that include periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. The Company may choose to apply the new standard either retrospectively or through a cumulative effect adjustment as of January 1, 2017. The Company is in the process of determining the effect of the new guidance on our financial position and consolidated results of operations, as well as which transition method to use.
Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures - In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance that amends the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase financings. Under the new guidance, repurchase-to-maturity transactions will be accounted for as secured borrowings. Additionally, the initial transfer and related repurchase agreement in a repurchase financing will need to be considered separately, rather than as a linked transaction. In addition, new disclosures will be required for (1) repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings, and (2) transfers accounted for as sales when the transferor also retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial assets throughout the term of the transaction. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s financial statements that include periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015, except for the disclosures related to transactions accounted for as secured borrowings, which will be effective for the Company’s financial statements that include periods beginning on April 1, 2015. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or consolidated results of operations.
Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period - In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the accounting for a performance target that affects vesting of a share-based payment award and that could be achieved after the requisite service period. The guidance indicates that such a performance target would not be reflected in the estimation of the award’s grant date fair value. Rather, compensation cost for such an award would be recognized over the requisite service period, if it is probable that the performance target will be achieved. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period would reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and would be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s financial statements that include periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016 and applied prospectively to awards that are granted or modified after the effective date. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or consolidated results of operations.

There were $748.8 million of securities with $15.1 million in an unrealized loss position for greater than 12 months at June 30, 2014. At December 31, 2013, there were $38.9 million of securities with $2.6 million in an unrealized loss position for greater than 12 months. The Company does not consider these unrealized losses to be credit-related. These unrealized losses primarily relate to changes in interest rates and market spreads. We do not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity. Accordingly, no other-than-temporary impairments have been recorded on these securities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or during 2013.

Impaired Loans
Impaired loans consist of nonaccrual loans (which include nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs")) and loans classified as accruing TDRs. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, management believes that either it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement or it has been classified as a TDR.
The following two tables present our recorded investment in impaired loans outstanding by product segment, including our recorded investment in impaired loans, which represents the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income, deferred loan fees and costs, and any direct principal charge-offs.

Credit Quality Indicators
We have adopted an internal risk rating policy in which each loan is rated for credit quality with a numerical rating of 1 through 8. Loans rated 5 and better (1-5 ratings, inclusive) are credits that exhibit acceptable financial performance, cash flow, and leverage. We attempt to mitigate risk by loan structure, collateral, monitoring, and other credit risk management controls. Credits rated 6 are performing in accordance with contractual terms but are considered "special mention" as these credits demonstrate potential weakness that if left unresolved, may result in deterioration in the Company’s credit position and/or the repayment prospects for the credit. Borrowers rated special mention may exhibit adverse operating trends, high leverage, tight liquidity or other credit concerns. Loans rated 7 may be classified as either accruing ("potential problem") or nonaccrual ("nonperforming"). Potential problem loans, like special mention, are loans that are performing in accordance with contractual terms, but for which management has some level of concern (greater than that of special mention loans) about the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms in future periods. These loans continue to accrue interest but the ultimate collection of these loans in full is questionable due to the same conditions that characterize a 6-rated credit. These credits may also have somewhat increased risk profiles as a result of the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or guarantors or the value of the collateral pledged. These loans generally have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize collection of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not resolved. Although these loans are generally identified as potential problem loans and require additional attention by management, they may never become nonperforming. Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans risk rated 7 or 8 and have all the weaknesses inherent in a 7-rated potential problem loan with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently-existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Special mention, potential problem and nonperforming loans are reviewed at a minimum on a quarterly basis, while all other rated credits over a certain dollar threshold, depending on loan type, are reviewed annually or more frequently as the situation warrants.

(3) | Other concessions primarily include interest rate reductions, loan increases or deferrals of principal. |
At the time an accruing loan becomes modified and meets the definition of a TDR, it is considered impaired and no longer included as part of the general loan loss reserve calculation. However, our general reserve methodology considers the amount and product type of the TDRs removed as a proxy for potentially heightened risk in the portfolio when establishing final reserve requirements.
As impaired loans, TDRs (both accruing and nonaccruing) are evaluated for impairment at the end of each quarter with a specific valuation reserve created, or adjusted (either individually or as part of a pool), if necessary, as a component of the allowance for loan losses. Refer to the "Impaired Loan" and "Allowance for Loan Loss" sections of Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding our policy for assessing potential impairment on such loans. Our allowance for loan losses included $3.7 million and $8.6 million in specific reserves for nonaccrual TDRs at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. For accruing TDRs, there were specific reserves of $33,000 and $37,000 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, with the specific reserve representing the difference between the present value of cash flows for the restructured loan as compared to the recorded investment in the loan.
The following table presents the recorded investment and number of loans modified as an accruing TDR during the previous 12 months which subsequently became nonperforming during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. A loan becomes nonperforming and placed on nonaccrual status typically when the principal or interest payments are 90 days past due based on contractual terms or when an individual analysis of a borrower’s creditworthiness indicates a loan should be placed on nonaccrual status earlier than when the loan becomes 90 days past due.

Goodwill is not amortized but, instead, is subject to impairment tests at least on an annual basis or more often if events or circumstances occur that would indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. Our annual goodwill impairment test was performed as of October 31, 2013, and it was determined no impairment existed as of that date. A goodwill impairment charge of $146,000 was recorded in the fourth quarter 2013 in connection with the December 31, 2013 sale of Lodestar Investment Counsel, LLC ("Lodestar"), an investment management firm and previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
We are not aware of any events or circumstances that would indicate goodwill is impaired at June 30, 2014.
We have other intangible assets capitalized on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in the form of core deposit premiums and client relationships. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 8 to 12 years.
We review intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. During second quarter 2014, there were no events or circumstances to indicate there may be impairment of intangible assets, and no impairment charges for other intangible assets were recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

(2) | Our borrowing capacity changes each quarter subject to available collateral and FRB discount factors. |
As a member of the FHLB Chicago, the Bank has access to a borrowing capacity of $858.3 million at June 30, 2014, of which $378.0 million is available, subject to the additional investment in FHLB Chicago stock required. Our borrowing capacity with the FHLB Chicago is subject to change based on the availability of acceptable collateral to pledge and the level of our investment in FHLB Chicago stock. At June 30, 2014, advances from the FHLB Chicago were comprised of $230.0 million short-term and $250.0 million long-term. Qualifying residential, multi-family and commercial real estate loans, home equity lines of credit, and mortgage-backed securities are held as collateral towards current outstanding balances and additional borrowing availability. FHLB advances reported as short-term borrowings represent advances with a remaining maturity of one year or less at June 30, 2014.
The Company has a $60.0 million 364-day Revolving Line of Credit (the "Facility") with a group of commercial banks, which currently matures September 26, 2014. Any amounts outstanding under the Facility upon maturity may be converted, at the Company's option, to an amortizing term loan, with the balance of such loan due September 27, 2016. Loans under the Facility bear interest, at the Company's election, at a floating rate equal to either LIBOR plus 1.95% or a defined base rate minus 0.50%. At June 30, 2014, no amounts have been drawn on the Facility.
Also included in short-term and secured borrowings on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition are amounts related to certain loan participation agreements on loans we originated that were classified as secured borrowings as they did not qualify for sale accounting treatment. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, these loan participation agreements totaled $2.3 million and $6.4 million, respectively. A corresponding amount was recorded within loans on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at each of these dates.

10. JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURES HELD BY TRUSTS THAT ISSUED GUARANTEED CAPITAL DEBT SECURITIES
As of June 30, 2014, we sponsored and wholly owned 100% of the common equity of four trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing Company obligated mandatorily redeemable trust preferred securities ("Trust Preferred Securities") to third-party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities solely in a series of junior subordinated debentures of the Company ("Debentures"). The Debentures held by the trusts, which in aggregate total $244.8 million, are the sole assets of each respective trust. Our obligations under the Debentures and related documents, including the indentures, the declarations of trust and related Company guarantees, taken together, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company on a subordinated basis of distributions, and redemption payments and liquidation payments on the Trust Preferred Securities. We currently have the right to redeem, in whole or in part, subject to any required regulatory approval, all or any series of the Debentures, in each case, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures being redeemed plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date. The repayment, redemption or repurchase of any of the Debentures would be subject to the terms of the applicable indenture and would result in a corresponding repayment, redemption or repurchase of an equivalent amount of the related series of Trust Preferred Securities. Any redemption of the Debentures held by the PrivateBancorp Statutory Trust IV (the "Series IV Debentures"), would be subject to the terms of the replacement capital covenant described below and any required regulatory approval.
In connection with the issuance in 2008 of the Series IV Debentures, which rank junior to the other Debentures, we entered into a replacement capital covenant that relates to redemption of the Series IV Debentures and the related Trust Preferred Securities. Under the replacement capital covenant, as amended in October 2012, we committed, for the benefit of certain debt holders, that we would not repay, redeem or repurchase the Series IV Debentures or the related Trust Preferred Securities prior to June 2048 unless we have (1) obtained any required regulatory approval, and (2) raised certain amounts of qualifying equity or equity-like replacement capital at any time after October 10, 2012. The replacement capital covenant benefits holders of our "covered debt" as specified under the terms of the replacement capital covenant. Currently, under the replacement capital covenant, the "covered debt" is the Debentures held by PrivateBancorp Statutory Trust II. In the event that the Company's 7.125% subordinated debentures due 2042 are designated as or become the covered debt under the replacement capital covenant, the terms of such debentures provide that the Company is authorized to terminate the replacement capital covenant without any further action or payment. We may amend or terminate the replacement capital covenant in certain circumstances without the consent of the holders of the covered debt.
Under current accounting rules, the trusts qualify as variable interest entities for which we are not the primary beneficiary and therefore are ineligible for consolidation in our financial statements. The Debentures issued by us to the trusts are included in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as "long-term debt" with the corresponding interest distributions recorded as interest expense. The common shares issued by the trusts are included in other assets in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition with the related dividend distributions recorded in other non-interest income.

(1) | The trust preferred securities accrue distributions at a rate equal to the interest rate on and have a maturity identical to that of the related Debentures. The trust preferred securities will be redeemed upon maturity or earlier redemption of the related Debentures. |
| |
(2) | Reflects the coupon rate in effect at June 30, 2014. The coupon rate for the Bloomfield Hills Statutory Trust I is a variable rate and is based on three-month LIBOR plus 2.65%. The coupon rates for the PrivateBancorp Statutory Trusts II and III are at a variable rate based on three-month LIBOR plus 1.71% for Trust II and three-month LIBOR plus 1.50% for Trust III. The coupon rate for the PrivateBancorp Statutory Trust IV is fixed. Distributions for all of the Trusts are payable quarterly. We have the right to defer payment of interest on the Debentures at any time or from time to time for a period not exceeding ten years in the case of the Debentures held by Trust IV, and five years in the case of all other Debentures, without causing an event of default under the related indenture, provided no extension period may extend beyond the stated maturity of the Debentures. During such extension period, distributions on the trust preferred securities would also be deferred, and our ability to pay dividends on our common stock would generally be prohibited. The Federal Reserve has the ability to prevent interest payments on the Debentures. |
| |
(3) | The trust preferred securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the Debentures at maturity or upon their earlier redemption in whole or in part. The Debentures are redeemable in whole or in part prior to maturity at any time after the dates shown in the table and only after we have obtained Federal Reserve approval, if then required under applicable guidelines or regulations. |

(2) | Net income allocated to common stockholders for basic and diluted earnings per share may differ under the two-class method as a result of adding common stock equivalents for options to dilutive shares outstanding, which alters the ratio used to allocate net income to common stockholders and participating securities for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share. |

Net deferred tax assets totaled $88.6 million at June 30, 2014 and $98.6 million at December 31, 2013. Net deferred tax assets are included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
At June 30, 2014, we have concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized and no valuation allowance was recorded. This conclusion was based in part on our recent earnings history, on both a book and tax basis, and our outlook for earnings and taxable income in future periods.
As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $347,000 of unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain tax positions that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.
14. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
We utilize an overall risk management strategy that incorporates the use of derivative instruments to reduce interest rate risk, as it relates to mortgage loan commitments and planned sales of loans, and foreign currency volatility as it relates to certain loans denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We also use these instruments to accommodate our clients as we provide them with risk management solutions. None of the above-mentioned end-user and client-related derivatives were designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
We also use interest rate derivatives to hedge variability in forecasted interest cash flows in our loan portfolio which is comprised primarily of floating-rate loans. These derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges.
Derivatives expose us to counterparty credit risk. Credit risk is managed through our standard underwriting process. Actual exposures are monitored against various types of credit limits established to contain risk within parameters. Additionally, credit risk is managed through the use of collateral, netting agreements, and the establishment of internal concentration limits by financial institution.

Master Netting Agreements
Certain of the Company's derivative contracts are subject to enforceable master netting agreements with derivative counterparties. Authoritative accounting guidance permits the netting of derivative receivables and payables when a legally enforceable master
netting agreement exists between the Company and a derivative counterparty. A master netting agreement is an agreement between two counterparties who have multiple derivative contracts with each other that provide for the net settlement of contracts through a single payment, in a single currency, in the event of default on or termination of any one contract. For those derivative contracts subject to enforceable master netting agreements, derivative assets and liabilities, and related cash collateral, with the same counterparty are reported on a net basis within derivative assets and derivative liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Derivative contracts may require the Company to provide or receive cash or financial instrument collateral. Collateral associated with derivative assets and liabilities subject to enforceable master netting agreements with the same counterparty is posted on a net basis. The Company has pledged cash or financial collateral in accordance with each counterparty's collateral posting requirements for all of the Company's derivative assets and liabilities in a net liability position as of June 30, 2014. Certain collateral posting requirements are subject to posting thresholds and minimum transfer amounts, such that the Company is only required to post collateral once the posting threshold is met, and any adjustments to the amount of collateral posted must meet minimum transfer amounts.
As of June 30, 2014, $10.9 million of cash collateral pledged was netted with the related derivative liabilities and no cash collateral received was netted with the related derivative assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. To the extent not netted against derivative fair values under a master netting agreement, the receivable for cash pledged is included in other short-term investments. There was no receivable for cash pledged at June 30, 2014. Any securities pledged to counterparties as financial instrument collateral remain on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as long as the Company does not default.
The following table presents information about the Company's derivative assets and liabilities and the related collateral by derivative type (e.g., interest rate contracts). As the Company posts collateral with counterparties on the basis of its net position in all derivative contracts with a given counterparty, the information presented below aggregates the derivative contracts entered into with the same counterparty.

Certain of our derivative contracts contain embedded credit risk contingent features that if triggered either allow the derivative counterparty to terminate the derivative or require additional collateral. These contingent features are triggered if we do not meet specified financial performance indicators such as minimum capital ratios under the federal banking agencies’ guidelines. All requirements were met at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Details on these derivative contracts are set forth in the following table.

Derivatives Designated in Hedge Relationships
The objective of our hedging program is to use interest rate derivatives to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.
Cash Flow Hedges – Under our cash flow hedging program we enter into receive fixed/pay variable interest rate swaps to convert certain floating-rate commercial loans to fixed-rate to reduce the variability in forecasted interest cash flows due to market interest rate changes. We use regression analysis to assess the effectiveness of cash flow hedges at both the inception of the hedge relationship and on an ongoing basis. Ineffectiveness is generally measured as the amount by which the cumulative change in fair value of the hedging instrument exceeds the present value of the cumulative change in the expected cash flows of the hedged item. Measured ineffectiveness is recognized directly in other non-interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, there were no gains or losses from cash flow hedge derivatives related to ineffectiveness that were reclassified to current earnings. The effective portion of the gains or losses on cash flow hedges are recorded, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") and are subsequently reclassified to interest income on loans in the period that the hedged interest cash flows affect earnings. As of June 30, 2014, the maximum length of time over which forecasted interest cash flows are hedged is six years. There are no components of derivative gains or losses excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness related to our cash flow hedge strategy.

As of June 30, 2014, $5.7 million in net deferred gains, net of tax, recorded in AOCI are expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months. This amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations, and the addition of other hedges subsequent to June 30, 2014. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, there were no gains or losses from cash flow hedge derivatives reclassified to current earnings because it became probable that the original forecasted transaction would not occur.
Derivatives Not Designated in Hedge Relationships
Other End-User Derivatives – We enter into derivatives that include commitments to fund residential mortgage loans to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans. It is our practice to enter into forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans when we enter into customer interest rate lock commitments. This practice allows us to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates on our commitments to fund the loans as well as on our portfolio of mortgage loans held-for-sale. At June 30, 2014, the par value of our mortgage loans held-for-sale totaled $20.2 million, the notional value of our interest rate lock commitments totaled $64.9 million, and the notional value of our forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans totaled $85.1 million.
We are also exposed at times to foreign exchange risk as a result of issuing loans in which the principal and interest are settled in a currency other than U.S. dollars. As of June 30, 2014, our exposure was to the Euro, Canadian dollar, British pound and Danish Kroner on $14.0 million of loans. We manage this risk by using forward currency derivatives.
Client-Related Derivatives – We offer, through our capital markets group, over-the-counter interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives to our clients, including but not limited to, interest rate swaps, interest rate options (also referred to as caps, floors, collars, etc.), foreign exchange forwards and options, as well as cash products such as foreign exchange spot transactions. When our clients enter into an interest rate or foreign exchange derivative transaction with us, we mitigate our exposure to market risk
through the execution of off-setting positions with inter-bank dealer counterparties. Although the off-setting nature of transactions originated by our capital markets group limits our market risk exposure, they do expose us to other risks including counterparty credit, settlement, and operational risk.
To accommodate our loan clients, we occasionally enter into risk participation agreements ("RPA") with counterparty banks to either accept or transfer a portion of the credit risk related to their interest rate derivatives or transfer a portion of the credit risk related to our interest rate derivatives. This allows clients to execute an interest rate derivative with one bank while allowing for distribution of the credit risk among participating members. We have entered into written RPAs in which we accept a portion of the credit risk associated with an interest rate derivative of another bank's loan client in exchange for a fee. We manage this credit risk through our loan underwriting process, and when appropriate, the RPA is backed by collateral provided by the clients under their loan agreement.
The current payment/performance risk of written RPAs is assessed using internal risk ratings which range from 1 to 8 with the latter representing the highest credit risk. The risk rating is based on several factors including the financial condition of the RPA’s underlying derivative counterparty, present economic conditions, performance trends, leverage, and liquidity.
The maximum potential amount of future undiscounted payments that we could be required to make under our written RPAs assumes that the underlying derivative counterparty defaults and that the floating interest rate index of the underlying derivative remains at zero percent. In the event that we would have to pay out any amounts under our RPAs, we will seek to maximize the recovery of these amounts from assets that our clients pledged as collateral for the derivative and the related loan.

15. COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES, AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Credit Extension Commitments and Guarantees
In the normal course of business, we enter into a variety of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of our clients and to conduct lending activities. These instruments principally include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and liquidity risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend funds to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and variable interest rates tied to the prime rate or LIBOR and may require payment of a fee for the unused portion of the commitment or for the amounts issued but not drawn on letters of credit. All or a portion of commitments with an initial term extending beyond one year require regulatory capital support, while commitments of less than one year do not, although under newly issued regulatory capital rules, unfunded commitments of less than one year will require regulatory capital unless unconditionally cancellable. Since many of our commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the borrowers. As of June 30, 2014, we had a reserve for unfunded commitments of $9.4 million, which reflects our estimate of inherent losses associated with these commitment obligations. The balance of this reserve changes based on a number of factors including: the balance of outstanding commitments and our assessment of the likelihood of borrowers to utilize these commitments. The reserve is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Standby and commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a client to a third party. Standby letters of credit include performance and financial guarantees for clients in connection with contracts between our clients and third parties. Standby letters of credit are agreements where we are obligated to make payment to a third party on behalf of a client in the event the client fails to meet their contractual obligations. Commercial letters of credit are issued specifically to facilitate commerce and typically result in the commitment being drawn on when the underlying transaction is consummated between the client and the third party. In most cases, the Company receives a fee for the amount of a letter of credit issued but not drawn upon.
In the event of a client’s nonperformance, our credit loss exposure is equal to the contractual amount of those commitments. We manage this credit risk in a similar manner to evaluating credit risk in extending loans to clients under our credit policies. We use the same credit policies in making credit commitments as for on-balance sheet instruments, mitigating exposure to credit loss through various collateral requirements, if deemed necessary. In the event of nonperformance by the clients, we have rights to the underlying collateral, which could include commercial real estate, physical plant and property, inventory, receivables, cash and marketable securities.
The maximum potential future payments guaranteed by us under standby letters of credit arrangements are equal to the contractual amount of the commitment. The unamortized fees associated with standby letters of credit, which are included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, totaled $2.6 million as of June 30, 2014. We amortize these amounts into income over the commitment period. As of June 30, 2014, standby letters of credit had a remaining weighted-average term of approximately 13 months, with remaining actual lives ranging from less than 1 year to 7 years.
Other Commitments
The Company has unfunded commitments to Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") investments and other investment partnerships totaling $15.1 million at June 30, 2014. Of these commitments, $1.8 million related to legally-binding unfunded commitments for tax-credit investments and was included within other assets and other liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Credit Card Settlement Guarantees
Our third-party corporate credit card vendor issues corporate purchase credit cards on behalf of our commercial clients. The corporate purchase credit cards are issued to employees of certain of our commercial clients at the client’s direction and used for payment of business-related expenses. In most circumstances, these cards will be underwritten by our third-party vendor. However, in certain circumstances, we may enter into a recourse agreement, which transfers the credit risk from the third-party vendor to us in the event that the client fails to meet its financial payment obligation. In these circumstances, a total maximum exposure amount is established for our corporate client. In addition to the obligations presented in the prior table, the maximum potential future payments guaranteed by us under this third-party settlement guarantee were $5.2 million at June 30, 2014.
We believe that the estimated amounts of maximum potential future payments are not representative of our actual potential loss given our insignificant historical losses from this third-party settlement guarantee program. As of June 30, 2014, we have no recorded contingent liability in the consolidated financial statements for this settlement guarantee program, and management believes that the probability of any loss under this arrangement is remote.
Mortgage Loans Sold with Recourse
Certain mortgage loans sold have limited recourse provisions. The losses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 arising from limited recourse provisions were not material. Based on this experience, the Company has not established any liability for potential future losses relating to mortgage loans sold in prior periods.
Legal Proceedings
In June 2013, we were served with a complaint naming the Bank as an additional defendant in a lawsuit pending in the Circuit Court of the 21st Judicial Circuit, Kankakee County, Illinois known as Maas vs. Marek et. al. The lawsuit, brought by the beneficiaries of two trusts for which the Bank is serving as the successor trustee, seeks reimbursement of penalties and interest assessed by the IRS due to the late payment of certain generation skipping taxes by the trusts, as well as certain related attorney fees and other damages. The other named defendants include legal and accounting professionals that provided services related to the matters involved. In January 2014, the Circuit Court denied the Bank’s motion to dismiss, and the matter is now in the discovery process. Thereafter, the parties have agreed to participate in court-ordered non-binding mediation. Although we are not able to predict the likelihood of an adverse outcome, we currently anticipate that ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
As of June 30, 2014, there were various other legal proceedings pending against the Company and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of these proceedings will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
16. ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We measure, monitor, and disclose certain of our assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is used on a recurring basis to account for securities available-for-sale, mortgage loans held-for-sale, derivative assets, derivative liabilities, and certain other assets and other liabilities. In addition, fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to apply lower-of-cost-or-market accounting to foreclosed real estate and certain other loans held-for-sale, evaluate assets or liabilities for impairment, including collateral-dependent impaired loans, and for disclosure purposes. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, we use various valuation techniques and input assumptions when estimating fair value.
U.S. GAAP requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels based on the reliability of the input assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to level 1 measurements and the lowest priority to level 3 measurements. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
| |
• | Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets. |
| |
• | Level 2 – Observable inputs other than level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar instruments; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
| |
• | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
The categorization of where an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Valuation Methodology
We believe our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. However, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value. Additionally, the methods used may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.
The following describes the valuation methodologies we use for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, including the general classification of the assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Securities Available-for-Sale – Securities available-for-sale include U.S. Treasury, U.S. Agency, collateralized mortgage obligations, residential mortgage-backed securities, state and municipal securities, and foreign sovereign debt. Substantially all available-for-sale securities are fixed-income instruments that are not quoted on an exchange, but may be traded in active markets. The fair value of these securities is based on quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services. The principal markets for our securities portfolio are the secondary institutional markets, with an exit price that is predominantly reflective of bid level pricing in those markets. U.S. Treasury securities have been classified in level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. All other remaining securities are classified in level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. On a quarterly basis, the Company uses a variety of methods to validate the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from external pricing services, including evaluating pricing service inputs and methodologies, using exception reports based on analytical criteria, comparing prices obtained to prices received from other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on the Company’s knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. While we may challenge valuation inputs used in determining prices obtained from external pricing services based on our validation procedures, we have not altered the fair values ultimately provided by the external pricing services.
Mortgage Loans Held-for-Sale – Mortgage loans held-for-sale represent residential mortgage loan originations intended to be sold in the secondary market. We have elected the fair value option for residential mortgage loans originated with the intention of selling to a third party. The election of the fair value option aligns the accounting for these loans with the related mortgage banking derivatives used to economically hedge them. These mortgage loans are measured at fair value as of each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized through mortgage banking non-interest income. The fair value of mortgage loans held-for-sale is determined based on prices obtained for loans with similar characteristics from third party sources. On a quarterly basis, the Company validates the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from third party sources by comparing prices obtained to prices received from various other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on Company knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. Mortgage loans held-for-sale are classified in level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans – We do not record loans held for investment at fair value on a recurring basis. However, periodically, we record nonrecurring adjustments to reduce the carrying value of certain impaired loans based on fair value measurement. This population of impaired loans includes those for which repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral. We measure the fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans based on the fair value of the collateral securing these loans less estimated selling costs. A majority of collateral-dependent impaired loans are secured by real estate with the fair value generally determined based upon appraisals performed by a certified or licensed appraiser using a
combination of valuation techniques such as sales comparison, income capitalization and cost approach and include inputs such as absorption rates, capitalization rates and comparables. We also consider other factors or recent developments that could result in adjustments to the collateral value estimates indicated in the appraisals. When a collateral dependent loan is secured by non-real estate collateral such as receivables, inventory, or equipment, the fair value is generally determined based upon appraisals, field exams, or receivable reports. The valuation techniques and inputs are reviewed internally by an asset based specialist for reasonableness of estimated liquidation costs, collectability probabilities, and other market data. Accordingly, fair value estimates for collateral-dependent impaired loans are classified in level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. The carrying value of all impaired loans and the related specific reserves are disclosed in Note 4.
At the time a collateral-dependent loan is initially determined to be impaired, we review the existing collateral appraisal. If the most recent appraisal is greater than one-year old, a new appraisal is obtained on the underlying collateral. The Company generally obtains "as is" appraisal values for use in the evaluation of collateral-dependent impaired loans. Appraisals for loans in excess of $500,000 are updated with new independent appraisals at least annually and are formally reviewed by our internal appraisal department. Additional diligence is also performed at the six-month interval between annual appraisals. If during the course of the six-month review period there is evidence supporting a meaningful decline in the value of the collateral, the appraised value is either internally adjusted downward or a new appraisal is required to support the value of the impaired loan. As part of our internal review process, we consider other factors or recent developments that could adjust the valuations indicated in the appraisals or internal reviews. The Company’s internal appraisal review process validates the reasonableness of appraisals in conjunction with analyzing sales and market data from an array of market sources.
Covered Asset OREO and OREO – Covered asset OREO and OREO generated from our originated book of business are valued on a nonrecurring basis using third-party appraisals of each property and our judgment of other relevant market conditions and are classified in level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. As part of our internal review process, we consider other factors or recent developments that could adjust the valuations indicated in the appraisals or internal reviews. Updated appraisals on both OREO portfolios are typically obtained every twelve months and evaluated internally at least every six months. In addition, both property-specific and market-specific factors as well as collateral type factors are taken into consideration, which may result in obtaining more frequent appraisal updates or internal assessments. Appraisals are conducted by third-party independent appraisers under internal direction and engagement using a combination of valuation techniques such as sales comparison, income capitalization and cost approach and include inputs such as absorption rates, capitalization rate and comparables. Any appraisal with a value in excess of $250,000 is subject to a compliance review. Appraisals received with a value in excess of $1.0 million are subject to a technical review. Appraisals are either reviewed internally by our appraisal department or sent to an outside technical firm if appropriate. Both levels of review involve a scope appropriate for the complexity and risk associated with the OREO. To validate the reasonableness of the appraisals obtained, the Company compares the appraised value to the actual sales price of properties sold and analyzes the reasons why a property may be sold for less than its appraised value.
Derivative Assets and Derivative Liabilities – Derivative instruments with positive fair values are reported as an asset and derivative instruments with negative fair value are reported as liabilities, in both cases after taking into account the effects of master netting agreements. For derivative counterparties with which we have a master netting agreement, we measure nonperformance risk on the basis of our net exposure to the counterparty. The fair value of derivative assets and liabilities is determined based on prices obtained from third party advisors using standardized industry models. Many factors affect derivative values, including the level of interest rates, the market’s perception of our nonperformance risk as reflected in our credit spread, and our assessment of counterparty nonperformance risk. The nonperformance risk assessment is based on our evaluation of credit risk, or if available, on observable external assessments of credit risk. Values of derivative assets and liabilities are primarily based on observable inputs and are classified in level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, with the exception of certain client-related derivatives and risk participation agreements, as discussed below. On a quarterly basis, the Company uses a variety of methods to validate the overall reasonableness of the fair values obtained from third party advisors, including evaluating inputs and methodologies used by the third party advisors, comparing prices obtained to prices received from other pricing sources, and reviewing the reasonableness of prices based on the Company's knowledge of market liquidity and other market-related conditions. While we may challenge valuation inputs used in determining prices obtained from third party advisors based on our validation procedures, during the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we did not alter the fair values ultimately provided by the third party advisors.
Level 3 derivatives include risk participation agreements and derivatives associated with clients whose loans are risk rated 6 or higher ("watch list derivative"). Refer to "Credit Quality Indicators" in Note 4 for further discussion on risk ratings. For these level 3 derivatives, the Company obtains prices from third party advisors, consistent with the valuation processes employed for the Company’s derivatives classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and then applies loss factors to adjust the prices obtained from third party advisors. The significant unobservable inputs that are employed in the valuation process for the risk participation agreements and watch list derivatives that cause these derivatives to be classified in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are the historic loss factors specific to the particular industry segment and risk rating category. The loss factors are updated quarterly and are derived and aligned with the loss factors utilized in the calculation of the Company’s general reserve component of the allowance
for loan losses. Changes in the fair value measurement of risk participation agreements and watch list derivatives are largely due to changes in the fair value of the derivative, risk rating adjustments and fluctuations in the pertinent historic average loss rate.

If a change in valuation techniques or input assumptions for an asset or liability occurred between periods, we would consider whether this would result in a transfer between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. There have been no transfers of assets or liabilities between level 1 and level 2 of the valuation hierarchy between December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014.
There have been no other changes in the valuation techniques we used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis from December 31, 2013 to June 30, 2014.

(3) | Transfers in and transfers out are recognized at the end of each quarterly reporting period. In general, derivative assets and liabilities are transferred into Level 3 from Level 2 due to a lack of observable market data, as there was deterioration in the credit risk of the derivative counterparty. Conversely, derivative assets and liabilities are transferred out of Level 3 into Level 2 due to an improvement in the credit risk of the derivative counterparty. |

As of June 30, 2014, none of the mortgage loans held-for-sale were on nonaccrual or 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest. Changes in fair value due to instrument-specific credit risk for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were not material.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
From time to time, we may be required to measure certain other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-fair-value accounting or write-downs of individual assets when there is evidence of impairment.
The following table provides the fair value of those assets that were subject to fair value adjustments during the second quarter 2014 and 2013, and still held at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. All fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis were measured using level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the risk participation agreements and watch list derivatives are the historic loss factors. A significant increase (decrease) in the pertinent loss factor would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.
Estimated Fair Value of Certain Financial Instruments
U.S. GAAP requires disclosure of the estimated fair values of certain financial instruments, both assets and liabilities, on and off-balance sheet, for which it is practical to estimate the fair value. Because the disclosure of estimated fair values provided herein excludes the fair value of certain other financial instruments and all non-financial instruments, any aggregation of the estimated fair value amounts presented would not represent total underlying value. Examples of non-financial instruments having value not disclosed herein include the future earnings potential of significant customer relationships and the value of our asset management operations and other fee-generating businesses. In addition, other significant assets including property, plant, and equipment and goodwill are not considered financial instruments and, therefore, have not been included in the disclosure.
Various methodologies and assumptions have been utilized in management’s determination of the estimated fair value of our financial instruments, which are detailed below. The fair value estimates are made at a discrete point in time based on relevant market information. Because no market exists for a significant portion of these financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected economic conditions, loss experience, and risk characteristics of the financial instruments. These estimates are subjective, involve uncertainties, and cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
In addition to the valuation methodology explained above for financial instruments recorded at fair value, the following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of financial instruments that are carried at cost in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and includes the general classification of the assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Short-term financial assets and liabilities – For financial instruments with a shorter-term or with no stated maturity, prevailing market rates, and limited credit risk, the carrying amounts approximate fair value. Those financial instruments include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits in banks (including the receivable for cash collateral pledged), accrued interest receivable, and accrued interest payable. Accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable are classified consistent with the hierarchy of their corresponding assets and liabilities.
Securities held-to-maturity – Securities held-to-maturity include collateralized mortgage obligations, residential mortgage-backed securities, agency commercial mortgage-backed securities and state and municipal securities. Substantially all held-to-maturity securities are fixed income instruments that are not quoted on an exchange, but may be traded in active markets. The fair value of these securities is based on quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services. The principal markets for our securities portfolio are the secondary institutional markets, with an exit price that is predominantly reflective of bid level pricing in those markets.
FHLB stock – The carrying value of FHLB stock approximates fair value as the stock is non-marketable, but can only be sold to the FHLB or another member institution at par.
Loans – The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting estimated cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. Cash flows are estimated by applying contractual payment terms to assumed interest rates. The estimate of maturity is based on contractual terms and includes assumptions that reflect our and the industry’s historical experience with repayments for each loan classification. The estimation is modified, as required, by the effect of current economic and lending conditions, collateral, and other factors.
Covered assets – Covered assets include acquired loans and foreclosed loan collateral covered under a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC (including the fair value of expected reimbursements from the FDIC). The fair value of covered assets is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the asset. The estimate of maturity is based on contractual terms and includes assumptions that reflect our and the industry’s historical experience with repayments for each asset classification. The estimate is modified, as required, by the effect of current economic and lending conditions, collateral, and other factors.
Investment in BOLI – The cash surrender value of our investment in bank owned life insurance approximates the fair value.
Deposit liabilities – The fair values disclosed for noninterest-bearing deposits, savings deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, and money market deposits are approximately equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The fair values for certificate of deposits and brokered time deposits were estimated using present value techniques by discounting the future cash flows at rates based on internal models and broker quotes.
Short-term and other borrowings – The fair value of FHLB advances with remaining maturities of one year or less is estimated by discounting the obligations using the rates currently offered for borrowings of similar remaining maturities. The fair value of secured borrowings is equal to the value of the loans they are collateralizing. See "Loans" above for further information. The carrying amount of the obligation for cash collateral held is considered to be its fair value because of its short-term nature.
Long-term debt – The fair value of the Company's fixed-rate long-term debt was estimated using the unadjusted publicly-available market price as of period end.
FHLB advances with remaining maturities greater than one year and the Company's variable-rate junior subordinated debentures are estimated by discounting future cash flows. For the FHLB advances with remaining maturities greater than one year, the Company discounts cash flows using quoted interest rates for similar financial instruments. For the Company's variable-rate junior subordinated debentures, we interpolate a discount rate we believe is appropriate based on quoted interest rates and entity specific adjustments.
Commitments – Given the limited interest rate risk posed by the commitments outstanding at period end due to their variable rate structure, termination clauses provided in the agreements, and the market rate of fees charged, we have deemed the fair value of commitments outstanding to be immaterial.

17. OPERATING SEGMENTS
We have three primary operating segments: Banking, Asset Management (formerly named Trust and Investments) and the Holding Company. With respect to the Banking and Asset Management segments, each is delineated by the products and services that each segment offers. The Banking operating segment is comprised of commercial and personal banking services, including mortgage originations. Commercial banking services are primarily provided to corporations and other business clients and include a wide array of lending and cash management products. Personal banking services offered to individuals, professionals, and entrepreneurs include direct lending and depository services. The Asset Management segment includes certain activities of our PrivateWealth group, including investment management, personal trust and estate administration, custodial and escrow, retirement plans and brokerage services. The activities of the third operating segment, the Holding Company, include the direct and indirect ownership of our banking subsidiary, the issuance of debt and intersegment eliminations.
The accounting policies of the individual operating segments are the same as those of the Company as described in Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Transactions between operating segments are primarily conducted at fair value, resulting in profits that are eliminated from consolidated results of operations.
Financial results for each segment are presented below. For segment reporting purposes, the statement of financial condition of Asset Management is included with the Banking segment.

Trust preferred capital securities issuances – As discussed in Note 10, we sponsor and wholly own 100% of the common equity of four trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities to third-party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities solely in debentures issued by the Company. The trusts’ only assets were the principal balance of the Debentures and the related interest receivable, which are included within long-term debt in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the trusts and accordingly, the trusts are not consolidated in our financial statements.
Community reinvestment investments – We hold certain investments in funds that make investments to further our community reinvestment initiatives. Such investments are included within other assets in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Certain of these investments meet the definition of a VIE, but the Company is not the primary beneficiary as we are a limited investor in those investment funds and do not have the power to direct their investment activities. Accordingly, we will continue to account for our interests in these investments on an unconsolidated basis. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying amount plus additional required future capital contributions.
A subset of our community reinvestment investments are investments in limited liability entities that invest in affordable housing projects that qualify for low-income housing tax credits. These investments entitle the Company to tax credits through 2025. As described in Note 2, "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements," as of January 1, 2014, the Company adopted new guidance that permits the Company to account for investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Prior to adoption of this guidance, the Company accounted for all of its investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the effective yield method. As permitted under the new guidance, the Company has elected to continue accounting for preexisting tax credit investments using the effective yield method. Any new investments in qualified affordable housing projects entered into on or after January 1, 2014 that meet certain conditions will be accounted for using the proportional amortization method. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had not entered into any investments in qualified affordable housing projects that would be accounted for using the proportional amortization method.
The carrying value of the Company’s tax credit investments totaled $2.8 million and $3.0 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company recognizes tax credits related to these investments, tax benefits from the operating losses generated by these investments, and amortization of the principal investment balances, all of which were immaterial during each of the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Commitments to provide future capital contributions totaling $1.8 million as of June 30, 2014, are expected to be paid through 2022. These investments are reviewed periodically for impairment. No impairment losses have been recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 resulting from the forfeiture or ineligibility of tax credits.
Troubled debt restructured loans – For certain troubled commercial loans, we restructure the terms of the borrower’s debt in an effort to increase the probability of collecting amounts contractually due. Following a TDR, the borrower entity typically meets the definition of a VIE as the initial determination of whether an entity is a VIE must be reconsidered and economic events have proven that the entity’s equity is not sufficient to permit it to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or a restructuring of the terms of its financing. As we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact such troubled commercial borrowers’ operations, we are not considered the primary beneficiary even in situations where, based on the size of the financing provided, we are exposed to potentially significant benefits and losses of the borrowing entity. We have no contractual requirements to provide financial support to the borrowing entities beyond certain funding commitments established upon restructuring of the terms of the debt. Our interests in the troubled commercial borrowers include outstanding
loans and related derivative assets. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to these interests plus any additional future funding commitments.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION

The PrivateBank and Trust Company (the "Bank" or the "PrivateBank"), the bank subsidiary of PrivateBancorp, provides customized business and personal financial services to middle market companies and business owners, executives, entrepreneurs and families in all the markets and communities it serves. As of June 30, 2014, we had 33 offices located in ten states, primarily in the Midwest, with a majority of our business conducted in the greater Chicago market.

We offer clients a full range of lending, treasury management, capital markets and other banking products to meet their commercial needs, and residential mortgage banking, private banking, asset management services to meet their personal needs.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes presented elsewhere in this report, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. Unless otherwise stated, all earnings per share data included in this section and through the remainder of this discussion are presented on a diluted basis.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this report that are not historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements represent management's beliefs and expectations regarding future events, such as our anticipated future financial results, credit quality, revenues, expenses, or other financial items, and the impact of business plans and strategies or legislative or regulatory actions. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "may," "might," "will," "should," "could," "would," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "intend," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "project," "potential," or "continue" or other comparable terminology.
Our ability to predict results or the actual effects of future plans, strategies or events is inherently uncertain. Factors which could cause actual results to differ from those reflected in forward-looking statements include:
| |
• | continued uncertainty regarding U.S. and global economic outlook that may impact market conditions or prolong weakness in demand for certain banking products and services; |
| |
• | unanticipated developments in pending or prospective loan transactions or greater than expected paydowns or payoffs of existing loans; |
| |
• | unanticipated changes in interest rates; |
| |
• | competitive pressures in the financial services industry that may affect the pricing of the Company’s loan and deposit products as well as its services; |
| |
• | unforeseen credit quality problems or changing economic conditions that could result in charge-offs greater than we have anticipated in our allowance for loan losses or changes in value of our investments; |
| |
• | lack of sufficient or cost-effective sources of liquidity or funding as and when needed; |
| |
• | loss of key personnel or an inability to recruit and retain appropriate talent; |
| |
• | greater than anticipated costs associated with the implementation of regulatory changes or satisfying heightened regulatory expectations; or |
| |
• | failures or disruptions to our data processing or other information or operational systems, including the potential impact of disruptions or breaches at our third party service providers. |
These factors should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on our forward-looking statements. Readers should also consider the risks, assumptions and uncertainties set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of this Form 10-Q, as well as those set forth in our subsequent periodic and current reports filed with the SEC. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and we assume
no obligation to update any of these statements in light of new information, future events or otherwise unless required under the federal securities laws.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), and our accounting policies are consistent with predominant practices in the financial services industry. Critical accounting policies are those policies that require management to make the most significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments based on information available at the date of the financial statements that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future changes in information may affect these estimates, assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Management has determined that our accounting policies with respect to the allowance for loan losses, goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes and fair value measurements are the accounting areas requiring subjective or complex judgments that are most important to our financial position and results of operations, and, as such, are considered to be critical accounting policies. For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” presented in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the section titled “Critical Accounting Policies” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2013.
USE OF NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This report contains both U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures include net interest income, net interest margin, net revenue, operating profit, and efficiency ratio all on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, return on average tangible common equity, Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets,, tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tangible book value. We believe that presenting these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures will provide information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance, our business, and performance trends and facilitates comparisons with the performance of others in the banking industry. Where non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, can be found in Table 28. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-U.S. GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
SECOND QUARTER OVERVIEW
For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we reported net income available to common stockholders of $40.8 million, an $11.9 million increase, or 41%, compared to $28.9 million for the second quarter of 2013, and an 18% increase compared to the first quarter 2014 of $34.5 million. Diluted earnings per share was $0.52, an increase of 41% compared to $0.37 per share in the second quarter 2013, and an increase of 18% compared to $0.44 in the previous quarter. Net income available to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $75.3 million, compared to $56.2 million, a 34% increase from the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share was $0.96, a 33% increase compared to $0.72 per diluted share in the same period last year. As a result of second quarter 2014 financial results, our annualized return on average assets grew to 1.14% and our annualized return on average common equity grew to 11.88%, both meaningful improvements from the year ago quarter when these performance ratios were 0.86% and 9.28%, respectively. Our efficiency ratio improved to 52.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, compared to 57.9% in the second quarter 2013.
Compared to the second quarter 2013, the increase in earnings for the current quarter was driven primarily by a reduction in credit- related costs, including lower provision for loan losses and net foreclosed property expenses and higher net interest income which was largely due to loan growth over the past four quarters. These same factors contributed to the increase in operating profit of $11.6 million to $67.9 million for second quarter 2014 compared to $56.3 million for second quarter 2013. Net revenue was $143.4 million, up $9.8 million from the second quarter 2013 as average loan growth and lower funding costs offset the impact of declining loan yields. Net interest income for second quarter 2014 increased $8.6 million compared to the second quarter 2013, benefiting from reduced deposit costs and the prepayment of $120.0 million subordinated debt in fourth quarter 2013. Net interest margin decreased one basis point to 3.21% for second quarter 2014 compared to 3.22% for the year ago quarter due to lower loan and security yields, somewhat offset by a continued decline in funding costs. Non-interest income increased compared to the second quarter 2013 primarily due to an increase in syndication fee revenue offset by a decline in capital markets income and mortgage banking revenue. Non-interest expenses declined from the prior year quarter, primarily resulting from a meaningful decline in various credit-related costs in line with reduced other real estate owned ("OREO") and problem loans and the absence of $3.0 million in one-time charges recognized in second quarter 2013.
Nonperforming asset quality metrics as of June 30, 2014 continue to improve from levels at year end 2013 with the 21% decline in nonperforming assets largely attributable to payoffs and paydowns of nonperforming loans. At June 30, 2014, other real estate owned was $19.8 million, a reduction of $8.7 million from December 31, 2013. Nonperforming assets to total assets were 0.66% at June 30, 2014, compared to 0.87% at December 31, 2013. At June 30, 2014 our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.32%, compared to 1.34% at December 31, 2013. Net charge-offs totaled $2.3 million in second quarter 2014 as compared to $14.1 million in the second quarter 2013, while the provision for loan losses declined for the eleventh consecutive quarter by $6.3 million to $2.0 million in the second quarter 2014 compared to $8.3 million for second quarter 2013. The provision for loan loss expense in the second quarter 2014 benefited from the release of specific reserves previously established for certain problem credits resolved in the second quarter 2014.
Total loans grew 5% to $11.1 billion at June 30, 2014 from 10.6 billion at year end 2013 and primarily driven by commercial and industrial loans to new clients. Total commercial and industrial loans comprised 68% of total loans at June 30, 2014 compared to 67% at year end 2013 and 66% a year ago. Excluded from total loans at June 30, 2014, were $80.7 million of loans held-for-sale, composed of $60.4 million in commercial credits funded in the second quarter 2014 that are expected to be syndicated and mortgage loans to be sold in the third quarter 2014.
Total deposits at June 30, 2014 increased 2% to $12.2 billion from year end 2013 primarily driven by increases in noninterest-bearing deposits and money market accounts. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits, which typically have been higher in the second half of the year, comprised 28% of total deposits at June 30, 2014, up 2% from year end. Given the commercial focus of our core business strategy, a majority of our deposit base is comprised of corporate accounts, which are typically larger than retail accounts, and are heavily influenced by the cash positions of our commercial middle market clients, which will fluctuate based on their business needs.
Please refer to the remaining sections of "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for greater discussion of the various components of our 2014 performance, statement of financial condition and liquidity.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the primary source of the Company's revenue. Net interest income is the difference between interest income and fees earned on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investments, and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings, which are used to fund those assets. Net interest income is affected by the volume, pricing, mix and maturity of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities; the volume and value of noninterest-bearing sources of funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and equity; the use of derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk; the sensitivity of the balance sheet to fluctuations in interest rates, including characteristics such as fixed or variable nature of the financial instruments, contractual maturities, repricing frequencies, and loan repayment behavior; and asset quality.
Interest rate spread and net interest margin are utilized to measure and explain changes in net interest income. Interest rate spread is the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities that fund those assets. Net interest margin is expressed as the percentage of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. The net interest margin exceeds the interest rate spread because noninterest-bearing sources of funds, principally noninterest-bearing demand deposits and equity, also support interest-earning assets.
The accounting policies underlying the recognition of interest income on loans, securities, and other interest-earning assets are included in Note 1 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
For purposes of this discussion, net interest income and any ratios or metrics that include net interest income as a component, such as net interest margin, have been adjusted to a fully tax-equivalent basis to more appropriately compare the returns on certain tax-exempt securities to those on taxable securities, assuming a federal income tax rate of 35%. The effect of the tax-equivalent adjustment is presented at the bottom of the following table.
Table 2 summarizes the changes in our average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as well as the average interest rates earned and paid on these assets and liabilities, respectively, for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The table also presents the trend in net interest margin on a quarterly basis for 2014 and 2013, including the tax-equivalent yields on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, Table 2 details variances in income and expense for each of the major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and indicates the extent to which such variances are attributable to volume and rate changes.

(1) | For purposes of this table, changes which are not due solely to volume changes or rate changes are allocated to such categories in proportion to the absolute amounts of the change in each. |
| |
(2) | Interest income included $6.6 million and $6.3 million in net loan fees for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |
| |
(3) | Interest income and yields are presented on a tax-equivalent basis, assuming a federal income tax rate of 35%. |
| |
(4) | Average loans on a nonaccrual basis for the recognition of interest income totaled $86.7 million and $125.3 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and are included in loans for purposes of this analysis. Interest foregone on impaired loans was estimated to be approximately $836,000 and $1.2 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, calculated based on the average loan portfolio yield for the respective period. |
| |
(5) | Covered interest-earning assets consist of loans acquired through a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC")-assisted transaction that are subject to a loss share agreement and the related indemnification asset. Refer to the section entitled "Covered Assets" for a detailed discussion. |
Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased $8.6 million, or 8%, to $113.1 million for second quarter 2014, compared to $104.5 million for the second quarter 2013. Interest income for the second quarter 2014 increased $7.3 million compared to the same period a year ago primarily due to $932.6 million in higher average loan balances. The increase in net interest income also benefited from a $1.3 million decrease in interest expense driven primarily by a $1.1 million reduction in interest costs on long-term debt attributable in part to the retirement of $120 million of subordinated debt in fourth quarter 2013.
Average interest-earning assets grew $1.1 billion from the prior year period primarily driven by an $849.5 million increase in average commercial loan balances from the prior year period. Average interest-bearing deposits grew $496.1 million from the prior year period reflecting an increase in money market and savings deposits. Average short-term debt declined $127.7 million as average short-term FHLB advances were higher in second quarter 2013, and average long-term debt increased $127.9 million in second quarter 2014 reflecting the net effect of actions taken during fourth quarter 2013, including the prepayment of subordinated debt, and $247.0 million increase in long-term FHLB advances compared to the prior year period.
Net interest margin was 3.21% for the second quarter 2014, down 1 basis point from 3.22% for second quarter 2013 as the decline in loan and securities yields more than offset the improvements in cost of funds. Our loan yields continue to be negatively impacted by decreases in LIBOR as well as downward pricing pressure on renewals in this competitive environment. Loan yields benefited from our commercial loan hedging program, which contributed 8 basis points in the quarter, compared to 5 basis points in second quarter 2013, and had an overall positive effect on net interest margin of 7 basis points in second quarter 2014 and 4 basis points in second quarter 2013. Further, our loan portfolio mix continues to shift toward commercial loans, which include specialty lines such as healthcare and engineering and construction, and can command pricing premiums due to elevated complexity and risk and the industry expertise required. The 9 basis points reduction on cost of funds for the quarter was driven in part by reduced cost of deposits, which declined by 2 basis points, and reduced borrowing costs. It was offset in part by a 2 basis points reduction in the value of noninterest-bearing deposits. Average noninterest-bearing deposits and average equity, our principal sources of noninterest-bearing funds, increased in total by $514.1 million from second quarter 2013, but the lower interest rate environment continues to reduce their value within the net interest margin.
In the continued low rate environment with pressure on loan yields, competition remains strong which has influenced loan pricing. Further loan yields may be impacted quarter to quarter by fluctuations in loan fees and interest income recognized driven by among other things, recovery of interest on nonaccrual loans, acceleration of unamortized origination fees upon payoff or refinance, prepayment fees and other fees received on certain event driven actions in accordance with the loan agreement. Loan yields may drift down 1 to 2 basis points each quarter until there is a meaningful increase in rates, although quarterly changes in loan fees caused by early prepayments and other events may cause some volatility. Despite the highly competitive environment, we maintain a selective and disciplined approach to structure, pricing and overall returns as we selectively add and develop new client relationships. As discussed above, we continue to see some downward pressure on loan renewals, which remain very competitive, and have resulted in a compression on overall loan yields. We do not anticipate significant benefit to net interest margin in the near
term from further downward repricing of deposits as the nature and composition of our deposit base may not reprice downward at the same pace as competitor banks, which have a greater concentration in retail deposits.

(1) | For purposes of this table, changes which are not due solely to volume changes or rate changes are allocated to such categories in proportion to the absolute amounts of the change in each. |
| |
(2) | Interest income included $12.7 million and $11.5 million in loan fees for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |
| |
(3) | Interest income and yields are presented on a tax-equivalent basis, assuming a federal income tax rate of 35%. |
| |
(4) | Average loans on a nonaccrual basis totaled $89.3 million and $131.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and are included in loans for purposes of this analysis. Interest foregone on nonperforming loans was estimated to be approximately $1.7 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, based on the average loan portfolio yield for the respective period. |
| |
(5) | Covered interest-earning assets consist of loans acquired through a FDIC-assisted transaction that are subject to a loss share agreement and the related indemnification asset. Refer to the section entitled "Covered Assets" for a detailed discussion. |
As shown in Table 3 net interest margin was 3.22% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 3.20% for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Tax-equivalent net interest income increased $14.3 million to $222.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $208.4 million for the prior year period. The year-over-year increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to the $910.3 million in growth in average loans and securities offset by lower yields on loans and securities combined with less interest income earned on the covered asset portfolio primarily due to reduced loan balances. Also contributing to the increase in net interest margin is the reduction in cost of funds.
Provision for loan losses
The provision for loan losses, excluding the provision for covered loans, totaled $2.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, down from $8.3 million for the same period in 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the provision for loan losses declined by 70%, totaling $5.5 million compared to $18.5 million for the same period in 2013. The provision for loan losses is a function of our allowance for loan loss methodology used to determine the allowance deemed adequate to cover inherent loan losses after net charge-offs have been deducted. The current period provision compared to the prior year quarter benefited from continuing portfolio improvement in overall credit metrics, reduced requirement for specific reserves on a smaller population of impaired loans, and the release of specific reserves previously established for problem credits resolved in the second quarter 2014. Impaired loans were $109.6 million at June 30, 2014, down 36% from $170.0 million at June 30, 2013. In addition, the current period provision benefited from decreased charge-offs. Net charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 totaled $2.3 million compared to net charge-offs of $14.1 million for the same period in 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 net charge-offs declined 93%, totaling $2.1 million compared to $31.7 million for the same period in 2013. For further analysis and information on how we determine the appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses and analysis of credit quality, see "Critical Accounting Policies" and "Credit Quality Management and Allowance for Loan Losses."
Provision for covered loan losses
For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the we recorded a reduction in the allowance for covered loan losses related to the loans purchased under the FDIC-assisted transaction loss share agreement in the amount of $1.7 million compared to a provision of $534,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the release for covered loan losses was $1.4 million, compared to a provision of $743,000 of our allowance for covered loan losses for the prior year period. The release for both the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014 was attributable to the recording of covered loan recoveries, which is not anticipated to be recurring in future periods. The provision for covered loan losses represents the 20% portion of expected losses on covered loans that would not be subject to reimbursement by the FDIC. For further information regarding the FDIC-assisted transaction, see "Covered Assets."
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income is derived from a number of sources related to our banking activities, including mortgage banking income, fees from our Asset Management business, the sale of derivative products to clients through our capital markets group, treasury management fees, loan and credit-related fees and syndication fees. The following table presents a break-out of these multiple sources of revenue.

Second quarter 2014 compared to second quarter 2013
Non-interest income for second quarter 2014 totaled $30.3 million, increasing $1.3 million, or 4% compared to the second quarter 2013, with increases in syndication fees, loan, letter of credit and commitment fees and treasury management primarily contributing to the current quarter growth. These increases were partially offset by lower mortgage banking, capital markets and asset management income. Excluding net securities gains, non-interest income increased $1.2 million to $30.1 million for second quarter 2014, compared to $28.9 million for second quarter 2013.
Asset management fee revenue declined $360,000, or 8%, from second quarter 2013. Strong client growth and market improvement mitigated the impact of the sale of Lodestar in fourth quarter 2013. The following table presents the composition of assets under management and administration ("AUMA"), as of the dates shown.

(1) | Includes $550.6 million of assets from Lodestar, of which $288.9 million at June 30, 2014 was retained subsequent to the sale, primarily in custody assets. |
AUMA grew to $6.4 billion during the quarter compared to $5.7 billion at December 31, 2013 and $5.4 billion at June 30, 2013. Growth for both comparative periods is primarily attributable to continued client acquisition and cross-selling asset management
services to new clients, and to a lesser extent the overall stock market improvements. The pricing on asset management accounts varies depending on the type of services provided. Managed fee income includes fees earned on investment management, personal trust and estate administration, and retirement plan and brokerage services. Custodial fee income includes fees earned on "qualified custodian," escrow accounts, and standard custody, all of which have significantly lower fees recognized than on managed assets. Fees earned on "qualified custodian" and escrow assets are typically a flat fee structure while standard custody and managed assets are generally based on the market value of the assets on the last day of the prior quarter or month and therefore subject to volatility.
Revenue from our mortgage banking business, which includes gains on loans sold and certain mortgage related loan fees, declined to $2.6 million, compared to $3.2 million for second quarter 2013. The decline is due to a lower volume of loan sales offset slightly by improving spreads in the current quarter compared to the prior year comparative period. Application volumes are down in the current quarter compared to a year ago comparative period as demand for refinancings have slowed in the industry. We sold $87.3 million of mortgage loans in the secondary market, generating gains of $2.1 million, in second quarter 2014 compared to $135.4 million of mortgage loans sold, generating gains of $2.8 million, in the prior year period. Purchase activity increased during second quarter 2014, while refinancing activity declined compared to the second quarter 2013. The current interest rate environment will continue to pressure refinancing activity, while application volumes are expected to benefit third quarter 2014 fee revenue as we have seen a rise in application volume on a sequential quarter basis.
Capital markets products income declined $1.0 million from second quarter 2013 and included a negative $250,000 CVA in the current quarter compared to a positive CVA of $1.9 million for the second quarter 2013. The CVA represents the credit component of fair value with regard to both client-based derivatives and the related matched derivatives with interbank dealer counterparties. Exclusive of CVA, capital markets products income increased $1.1 million, or 26%, compared to second quarter 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to a higher level of foreign exchange-related activity on higher trading volume, increased notional amounts and increased international acquisitions by our clients. In addition, interest rate swap transactions were up compared to the prior year quarter in response to an increase in loan activity. Our capital markets business opportunities are sensitive to our clients' outlook on short-term interest rates.
Treasury management income increased $467,000, or 8%, from second quarter 2013. Revenue growth for these services is driven by the acquisition of new middle-market lending clients as an expansion to their credit relationship with the Bank, and influenced by the nature of the client's business, though often subject to a three-to-six month lag of implementation. The increase reflects ongoing success in cross-selling treasury management services to new commercial clients as we continue to build client relationships and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in our earnings credit rate (the rate applied to balances maintained in the client's deposit account to offset activity charges) in the latter part of 2013 and through second quarter 2014. Similar to loan originations, we have experienced increased competition with treasury management services.
Loan, letter of credit, and commitment fees increased $524,000, or 12%, from second quarter 2013, primarily due to a $152,000, or 8%, increase in standby letter of credit fees and a $175,000, or 9%, increase in unused commitment fees. The majority of our unused commitment fees related to revolving facilities, which at June 30, 2014 totaled $7.8 billion, of which $4.0 billion were unused. In comparison, at June 30, 2013, commitments related to revolving facilities totaled $7.1 billion, of which $3.9 billion were unused.
Syndication fees increased $2.3 million, or 73%, to $5.4 million from second quarter 2013, reaching its highest revenue in an individual quarter. During the second quarter 2014, we participated in 17 led or co-led syndicated loan transactions, three of which were new during the quarter, retaining $295.0 million in commitments, resulting in $5.4 million of syndication fee revenue. The prior year period included 15 led or co-led syndicated loan transactions, four of which were new during the quarter, retaining $336.1 million in commitments, resulting in $3.1 million of syndication fee revenue. Syndication fees tend to fluctuate period to period depending on market conditions, loan origination trends, and portfolio management decisions. As of June 30, 2014, we had $60.4 million in commercial loans classified as held-for-sale that are expected to be syndicated in third quarter 2014, and contribute to non-interest income.
Six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to six months ended June 30, 2013
Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $56.5 million, declining 5% compared to $59.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013, with declines in asset management fees, mortgage banking, capital markets revenue and other income more than offsetting growth in syndication fees, treasury management, and loan, letter of credit and commitment fees. Excluding net securities gains, non-interest income decreased $2.7 million, or 5%, to $56.0 million compared to six months ended June 30, 2013.
Asset management fee revenue declined 4% to $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the previous year like period. Growth in AUMA, improved market performance, new client relationships (which helped increase managed assets),
and an increase in core custodial assets partially offset the absence of fees from Lodestar in the current year period as a result of the sale of Lodestar at year end 2013 (see AUMA table above).
Revenue from our mortgage banking business declined 42% to $4.3 million in the current year to date period, compared to $7.4 million in the previous year period. The decrease resulted from the lower volume of loans sold partially offset by improved margins for the current year to date period compared to the prior year period. We sold $145.0 million of mortgage loans in the secondary market, generating gains of $3.4 million, in the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $301.6 million of mortgage loans sold, generating gains of $6.2 million, for the prior year period.
Capital markets income declined $2.0 million in the current year to date period compared to the previous year like period and included a negative $316,000 CVA in 2014 compared to a positive CVA of $2.1 million for the like period in 2013. Exclusive of CVA adjustments, year-over-year capital markets income increased by $446,000, or 5%, to $9.4 million in the current period compared to $9.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013. Compared to the prior year period, the increase was primarily attributable to a higher level of foreign exchange-related activity, offset by a shift in product mix by clients into interest rate transactions with lower margins and a lower level of loan origination-related swap activity.
Treasury management income increased $1.1 million, or 9%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase reflected the on-boarding of new clients as a result of ongoing success in cross-selling treasury management services to new commercial clients and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in our earnings credit rate in the latter part of 2013.
Loan, letter of credit, and commitment fees increased $1.1 million, or 13%, from the six months ended June 30, 2013, due to higher levels of standby letter of credit and unused commitment fees compared to the prior year period.
Syndication fees increased $1.8 million, or 26%, from the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase is attributable to a greater amount of fees recognized on a higher volume of transactions and improved pricing from both planned and opportunistic transactions related to the high level of fourth quarter 2013 loan origination activity and deals in the first six months of 2014.
Deposit service charges and fees and other income declined $1.2 million, or 34%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the prior year period, largely due to the recognition of a $1.1 million gain on loan disposition recognized in the first quarter 2013.

Second quarter 2014 compared to second quarter 2013
Non-interest expense declined by $1.8 million, or 2%, for second quarter 2014 as compared to second quarter 2013. The decline reflects lower credit-related costs (i.e. net foreclosed property expense and loan and collection expense) attributable to a lower level of nonperforming assets as well as lower provision for unfunded commitment reserves. In addition, the second quarter 2013 other expenses included a one-time charges of $3.0 million related to restructuring costs and a charge on repurchased loans. The current period improvements were substantially offset by higher compensation expense, professional services expense, net occupancy and insurance expenses in second quarter 2014.
Compensation expense increased $4.6 million, or 11%, over second quarter 2013, due to more employees, a full quarter's impact of annual salary adjustments and increased performance-based incentives including our bonus program and other revenue-related compensation plans. Shared-based compensation expense increased $656,000 in connection with the full implementation of annual award programs which began in 2011. The year over year increase was partially offset by lower mortgage banking commission due to reduced mortgage revenue and the elimination of incentive compensation included in the prior year period for our investment management subsidiary sold at year end.
Professional services expense, which includes fees paid for legal services in connection with corporate activities, accounting, and consulting services, increased $1.1 million, or 63%, from second quarter 2013, due to the increase in risk management and technology consulting services.
Net foreclosed property expense, which includes write-downs on foreclosed properties, gains and losses on sales of foreclosed properties, and property ownership costs associated with the maintenance of OREO, declined $2.8 million, or 50%, compared to second quarter 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.9 million reduction in OREO write-downs and $778,000 reduction in net losses on sales of OREO from the prior year quarter. Net losses on sale were $62,000 on $2.6 million of OREO sold in second quarter 2014, as compared to net gains of $716,000 on $14.0 million of OREO sold in second quarter 2013. In addition, property ownership costs, such as property management and real estate taxes, were down $259,000 from the prior year quarter as the population of OREO had declined from $57.1 million at June 30, 2013 to $19.8 million at June 30, 2014. Refer to the "Foreclosed Real Estate" discussion in the "Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality" section below for more information regarding our OREO portfolio and valuation process.
Insurance expense increased $212,000, or 8%, from second quarter 2013 largely due to the prior year quarter included approximately $150,000 in refunds on previously paid deposit insurance assessments. In addition, for second quarter 2014, the FDIC deposit insurance assessment model was impacted by overall asset growth, increase in composition of certain loan classifications and changes in deposit mix compared to June 30, 2013.
Loan and collection expense, which consists of certain non-reimbursable costs associated with loan origination and servicing activities and loan remediation costs (including associated legal fees) of problem loans, declined $707,000, or 31%, from second quarter 2013. In second quarter 2014, workout-related costs declined $412,000 on a lower nonperforming loan base, while non-workout loan expenses decreased $296,000 from reduced volumes of mortgage activity coupled with lower credit-related costs on new and renewed loans.
Other expenses declined $4.0 million, or 53%, from second quarter 2013. Other expenses include bank charges, costs associated with the CDARS® product offering, intangible asset amortization, education-related costs, subscriptions, provision for unfunded commitments, and miscellaneous losses and expenses. The decline was primarily related to $3.0 million of non-recurring charges included in second quarter 2013 relating to restructuring costs and a charge on repurchased loans. The current quarter also benefited from an $807,000 reduction of the unfunded commitments provision as certain specific reserves for unfunded commitments were reduced during the second quarter of 2014.
Our efficiency ratio was 52.6% for second quarter 2014, improving from 57.9% for second quarter 2013, reflecting higher revenues and lower non-interest expenses. We expect our efficiency ratio to remain in the mid-50 percent range as our revenues and expenses maintain this proportionate relationship.
Six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to six months ended June 30, 2013
Non-interest expense declined $5.0 million, or 3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the prior year period, due to declines in net foreclosed property expense, loan and collection expense, lower provision for unfunded commitment reserves, and lower other expense due to nonrecurring charges in the prior period and were partially offset by higher compensation and professional expense.
Compensation expense increased overall by $6.0 million, or 7%, from the prior year period due to additional staff, annual salary adjustments and increased incentive compensation based on improved performance. Share-based costs increased $1.5 million, or 24% reflecting full implementation of annual equity award programs which began in 2011. Incentive compensation and commissions increased $787,000 from the prior period due to improved performance. Payroll taxes, insurance and retirement costs were up by $534,000, or 5%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 due to increased base compensation.
Net foreclosed property expenses declined $6.6 million, or 54%, compared to the prior year period. The decline in net foreclosed property expenses was primarily due to $6.9 million in lower OREO valuation write-downs compared to the prior year period. In addition, property ownership costs were down $835,000 from the prior year period as the OREO portfolio declined $37.3 million from June 30, 2013. Finally, net losses on sales of OREO was $379,000 on properties with a net book value of $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to net losses of $48,000 on properties with a net book value of $23.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
Insurance costs increased $576,000, or 11%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the prior year period and was primarily due to $843,000 prior period refunds on previously paid FDIC deposit insurance assessments recorded in six months ended June 30, 2013, and was partially offset by higher FDIC deposit insurance in 2014 due to overall asset growth, increase in certain loan classifications and a shift in our deposit mix.
Loan and collection expense declined $2.4 million, or 48%, from the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decline was primarily due to lower costs related to a lower level of problem loans.
Other operating expenses declined $4.3 million, or 32%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the prior year period largely due to $3.0 million of non-recurring charges that were incurred during the first six months of 2013 relating to restructuring costs and a charge on repurchased loans. Other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 also benefited from a $2 million decrease in provision for unfunded commitments.
Income Taxes
Our provision for income taxes includes both federal and state income tax expense. For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we recorded an income tax provision of $26.0 million on pre-tax income of $66.8 million (equal to a 38.9% effective tax rate) compared to an income tax provision of $17.7 million on pre-tax income of $46.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 (equal to a 38.0% effective tax rate).
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, income tax expense totaled $47.0 million on pre-tax income of $122.3 million (equal to a 38.4% effective tax rate) compared to an income tax provision of $34.6 million on pre-tax income of $90.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 (equal to a 38.1% effective tax rate).
The increase in our effective tax rate in the second quarter 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 was primarily due to lower tax-exempt income in relation to pre-tax income and tax changes in the current quarter from repricing our state deferred tax assets.
Net deferred tax assets totaled $88.6 million at June 30, 2014. We have concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized and no valuation allowance was recorded. This conclusion was based in part on the fact that the Company has cumulative book income for financial statement purposes at June 30, 2014, measured on a trailing three-year basis. In addition, we considered the Company's recent earnings history, on both a book and tax basis, and our outlook for earnings and taxable income in future periods.
For calendar year 2014, we currently expect the effective tax rate to be in the range of 38-39%, although a number of factors will continue to influence that estimate.
Operating Segments Results
We have three primary business segments: Banking, Asset Management, and Holding Company Activities.
Banking
Our Banking segment is the Company's most significant segment, as it represents 89% of consolidated total assets and generates nearly all of the Company's net income. The net income for the Banking segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 was $46.4 million, an increase of $11.9 million from net income of $34.5 million for the prior year period. The increase in net income for
the Banking segment was primarily due to an $8.7 million increase in net interest income due to 10% loan growth since the prior year period and $8.5 million decline in the provision for loan and covered loan losses compared to the prior year period, largely driven by improvements in credit quality metrics and increased recoveries.
Total loans for the Banking segment were $11.1 billion and $10.6 billion at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Total deposits increased slightly from December 31, 2013 levels of $12.1 billion to $12.3 billion at June 30, 2014.
Asset Management
The Asset Management segment (formerly named Trust and Investments) includes investment management, personal trust and estate administration, custodial and escrow, retirement plans and brokerage services.
Net income from Asset Management increased to $664,000 for second quarter 2014 from $580,000 for the prior year period. The prior year period includes fees and costs generated by our investment management subsidiary that we sold in December 2013. During second quarter 2014, the Asset Management segment partially replaced fees lost from the sale at an overall lower cost to the segment, contributing to the 14% increase in net income for the current period. This was achieved through continued client acquisition and overall stock market improvements. AUMA grew to $6.4 billion at June 30, 2014 from $5.7 billion at December 31, 2013 benefiting from growth in both managed and custody assets.
Holding Company Activities
The Holding Company Activities segment consists of parent company-only activity and intersegment eliminations. The Holding Company’s most significant asset is its investment in its bank subsidiary. Undistributed earnings relating to this investment is not included in the Holding Company financial results. Holding Company financial results are represented primarily by interest expense on borrowings and operating expenses. Recurring operating expenses consist primarily of compensation expense allocated to the Holding Company and professional fees. The Holding Company Activities segment reported a net loss of $6.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, and was largely comparable to a net loss of $6.1 million for the prior year period. The Holding Company had $92.9 million in cash at June 30, 2014, compared to $55.9 million at December 31, 2013 and included the receipt of $50 million in dividends from the Bank during first quarter 2014.
Additional information about our operating segments are also discussed in Note 17 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Investment Portfolio Management
We manage our investment portfolio to maximize the return on invested funds within acceptable risk guidelines, to meet pledging and liquidity requirements, and to adjust balance sheet interest rate sensitivity to attempt to serve as some protection of net interest income levels against the impact of changes in interest rates.
We may adjust the size and composition of our securities portfolio according to a number of factors, including expected liquidity needs, the current and forecasted interest rate environment, our actual and anticipated balance sheet growth rate, the relative value of various segments of the securities markets, and the broader economic and regulatory environment.
Investments are comprised of debt securities. Our debt securities portfolio is primarily comprised of U.S Treasury and Agency securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed pools, collateralized mortgage obligations, and state and municipal bonds.
Debt securities that are classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value and may be sold as part of our asset/liability management strategy in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs or significant prepayment risk. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities represent the difference between the aggregated cost and fair value of the portfolio and are reported, on an after-tax basis, as a separate component of equity in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). This balance sheet component will fluctuate as current market interest rates and conditions change, with such changes affecting the aggregate fair value of the portfolio. In periods of significant market volatility we may experience significant changes in AOCI.
Debt securities that are classified as held-to-maturity are securities that we have the ability and intent to hold until maturity and are accounted for using historical cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

As of June 30, 2014, our securities portfolio totaled $2.6 billion, an increase from $2.5 billion at December 31, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, purchases of securities totaled $309.8 million, with $111.1 million in the available-for-sale portfolio and $198.7 million in the held-to-maturity portfolio. The current year purchases in the investment portfolio primarily represent the reinvestment of proceeds from sales, maturities and paydowns in largely similar agency-guaranteed residential mortgage-backed securities and state and municipal securities, as well as purchases of residential agency guaranteed mortgage-backed securities, state and municipal securities and U.S. Treasury securities.
In conjunction with ongoing portfolio management and rebalancing activities, during the six months ended June 30, 2014, we sold $73.7 million in primarily residential mortgage-backed securities, treasury and collateralized mortgage obligations, resulting in a net securities gain of $527,000.
Investments in collateralized mortgage obligations and residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities comprised 81% of the total portfolio at June 30, 2014. All of the mortgage-backed securities are backed by U.S. Government agencies or issued by U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises. All residential mortgage-backed securities are composed of fixed-rate, fully-amortizing collateral with final maturities of 30 years or less.
Investments in debt instruments of state and local municipalities comprised 11% of the total portfolio at June 30, 2014. This type of security has historically experienced very low default rates and provided a predictable cash flow since it generally is not subject to significant prepayment. Insurance companies regularly provide credit enhancement to improve the credit rating and liquidity of a municipal bond issuance. Management considers the credit enhancement and underlying municipality credit strength when evaluating a purchase or sale decision.
At June 30, 2014, our reported equity reflected unrealized net securities gains on available-for-sale securities, net of tax, of $21.9 million, an increase of $8.9 million from December 31, 2013 due to decreases in certain interest rates. We continue to add, as needed, to the held-to-maturity portfolio to mitigate the potential future AOCI volatility of adding bonds to the available-for-sale portfolio in a low interest rate environment.
The following table summarizes activity in the Company's investment securities portfolio during 2014. There were no transfers of securities between investment categories during the year.

LOAN PORTFOLIO AND CREDIT QUALITY (excluding covered assets)
The following discussion of our loan portfolio and credit quality excludes covered assets. Covered assets represent assets acquired through an FDIC-assisted transaction that are subject to a loss share agreement and are presented separately on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. For additional discussion of covered assets, refer to "Covered Assets" further in "Management’s Discussion and Analysis" and Note 6 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements."
Portfolio Composition
Total loans were $11.1 billion at June 30, 2014 compared to $10.6 billion at December 31, 2013. Loans grew by $492.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014, with the growth primarily in commercial and industrial loans, which increased $439.5 million from year end 2013. For the trailing twelve quarters, the Company has averaged approximately just over $200.0 million in quarterly loan growth. New client activity for the first six months of 2014 of $756.6 million and net increased borrowings from existing clients contributed to loan growth during the fist half of 2014 and was primarily mitigated by payoffs. Construction loans increased $66.9 million from year end 2013, as an increase in construction activity influenced greater construction line utilization. Revolving line usage at June 30, 2014 was 49%, up 3 basis points from December 31, 2013 usage of 46%.
Our second quarter loan growth was strong despite the level of competition in our markets from both bank and nonbank companies amid continuing low loan demand. Overall loan growth from quarter-to-quarter continues to be impacted by the heightened competition which is affecting borrowers' expectations regarding both pricing and structure. Our strategy is to maintain a disciplined approach to pricing and structuring new credit opportunities and continue to develop comprehensive client relationships.
Much of our recent loan growth has been focused in commercial and industrial, which has resulted in an increase of these loans as a percentage of the total loan portfolio, representing 68% at June 30, 2014. The commercial and industrial portfolio generally provide us higher yields, principally in specialty lines such as healthcare, engineering and construction, than other segments of our total loan portfolio and provide greater potential for cross-selling of other products and services.
In the normal course of our business, we are involved in loan participation and syndication transactions that include a number of banks, primarily to maintain and build client relationships with a view to cross-selling products and originating loans for the borrowers in the future. Although we may strive to lead or co-lead the arrangement, we will also participate with other banks when we have a relationship with the borrower. These transactions also allow us to decrease our credit exposure linked to individual client relationships or loan concentrations by industry, type or size. Of our $11.1 billion in total loans at June 30, 2014, we were party to $2.2 billion in shared national credits ("SNCs") which are transactions typically led by larger institutions. At June 30, 2014, total syndications and participations outstanding were $3.7 billion, including SNCs, and of this total, we were the lead or co-lead on transactions with $1.5 billion outstanding at quarter end.
The following table presents the composition of our loan portfolio at the dates shown.

The following table summarizes the composition of our commercial loan portfolio at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Our commercial loan portfolio is categorized in the table based on our most significant industry segments, as classified pursuant to the North American Industrial Classification System standard industry description. These categories are based on the nature of the client's ongoing business activity as opposed to the collateral underlying an individual loan. To the extent that a client's underlying business activity changes, classification differences between periods will arise.

One of the largest segments within our commercial lending business is the healthcare industry. We have a specialized niche in the assisted living, skilled nursing, and residential care segment of the healthcare industry. Loan relationships to these providers tend to be larger extensions of credit with borrowers primarily represented by for-profit businesses. At June 30, 2014, 23% of the commercial loan portfolio and 16% of the total loan portfolio was composed of loans extended primarily to operators in this segment to finance the working capital needs and cost of facilities providing such services. The facilities securing the loans are dependent, in part, on the receipt of payments and reimbursements under government contracts for services provided. Our clients and their ability to service debt may be adversely impacted by the financial health of state or federal payors. In recent years, there have been reductions in the reimbursement rates in certain states and certain government entities are taking longer to reimburse. To date, despite some impact on client cash flows, the healthcare loan portfolio segment has experienced minimal defaults and losses.
Our manufacturing portfolio, representing 23% of our commercial and industrial lending business at June 30, 2014, is well diversified among sub-industry and product types with particular focus in serving clients in our primary market segments. The manufacturing industry segment is a key component of our core business strategy. As the general market environment for manufacturing has improved over the past several years, the manufacturing segment of the portfolio has been a key influence on the stabilizing credit performance in the commercial portfolio.
At June 30, 2014, approximately 9%, or $986.4 million of our total loan portfolio was characterized as higher-risk (also referred to as leveraged loans) commercial and industrial loans, as defined for regulatory purposes, compared to 8% or $847.0 million as of December 31, 2013. Higher-risk commercial and industrial loans are primarily underwritten on the recurring earnings of the borrower that manifest elevated cash flow leverage metrics as defined by the FDIC in late 2012. Higher-risk commercial and industrial are spread across multiple industries, generally command higher loan yields as a premium for underwriting the additional risk due to their leveraged position, and typically have lower collateral coverage than similar commercial and industrial loans that are not classified as higher-risk. As a result, in the event of default, the loss potential may be greater for these types of loans versus similar commercial and industrial loans that are not classified as higher-risk.
The following table summarizes our commercial real estate and construction loan portfolios by collateral type at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Of the combined commercial real estate and construction portfolios, the three largest categories at June 30, 2014 were retail, multi-family, and office real estate, which represent 22%, 21% and 17%, respectively of the combined portfolios. Our commercial real estate and construction portfolio strategy is focused on achieving market share in core real estate classes in geographically diverse but key market segments. From an overall portfolio performance perspective, these assets continue to perform at a satisfactory level.
Within the commercial real estate portfolio, our exposure to land loans totaled $171.6 million at June 30, 2014, declining $44.6 million, or 21%, from $216.2 million at December 31, 2013. Land remains an illiquid asset class as buyers and sellers may hold divergent future development outlooks for the land, therefore affecting saleability and market prices. As a percentage of the commercial real estate portfolio, land loans were 7% at June 30, 2014 and 9% at December 31, 2013.
The construction portfolio totaled $360.3 million at June 30, 2014, an increase of $66.9 million, compared to $293.4 million at December 31, 2013 with most significant increases in the multi-family and healthcare categories. The increase was driven by increased market activity as companies have additional capital to deploy, which has pushed values higher for properties in demand. Additionally, construction activity for retail, apartments and urban-infill continues to influence increased construction line utilization.

For further analysis and information related to interest sensitivity, see Item 3 "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of this Form 10-Q.
Delinquent Loans, Special Mention and Potential Problem Loans, Restructured Loans and Nonperforming Assets
Loans are reported delinquent if the required principal and interest payments have not been received within 30 days of the date such payments are due. Delinquency can be driven by either failure of the borrower to make payments within the term of the loan or failure to make the final payment at maturity. The majority of our loans are not fully amortizing over the term. As a result, a sizeable final repayment is often required at maturity. If a borrower lacks refinancing options or the ability to pay, the loan may become delinquent in connection with its maturity.
Loans considered special mention are performing in accordance with the contractual terms but demonstrate potential weakness that if left unresolved, may result in deterioration in the Company’s credit position and/or the repayment prospects for the credit. Borrowers rated special mention may exhibit adverse operating trends, high leverage, tight liquidity, or other credit concerns. These loans continue to accrue interest.
Potential problem loans, like special mention, are loans that are performing in accordance with contractual terms, but for which management has some level of concern (greater than that of special mention loans) about the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms in future periods. These loans continue to accrue interest but the ultimate collection of these loans in full is questionable due to the same conditions that characterize a special mention credit. These credits may also have somewhat increased risk profiles as a result of the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or guarantors or the collateral pledged. These loans generally have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize collection of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not resolved. Although potential problem loans require additional attention by management, they may never become nonperforming.
Special mention and potential problem loans as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are presented in Tables 13 and 17.
Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and real estate that has been acquired primarily through foreclosure proceedings and are awaiting disposition and are presented in Table 13. Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual loans, including restructured loans that remain on nonaccrual. We specifically exclude restructured loans that accrue interest from our definition of nonperforming loans.
All loans are placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest payments become 90 days past due or earlier if management deems the collectability of the principal or interest to be in question prior to the loans becoming 90 days past due. When interest accruals are discontinued, accrued but uncollected interest is reversed, reducing interest income. Subsequent receipts on nonaccrual loans are recorded in the financial statements as a reduction of principal, and interest income is only recorded on a cash basis if the remaining recorded investment after charge-offs is deemed fully collectible. Classification of a loan as nonaccrual does not necessarily preclude the ultimate collection of loan principal and/or interest. Nonperforming loans are presented in Tables 13, 14, 15, and 17. Restructured loans that are accruing interest are also included in Table 13 and 16.
As part of our ongoing risk management practices and in certain circumstances, we may extend or modify the terms of a loan to maximize the collection of amounts due when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. The modification may consist of reduction in interest rate, extension of the maturity date, reduction in the principal balance, or other action intended to minimize potential losses and maximize our chances of a more successful recovery on a troubled loan. When we make such concessions as part of a modification, we report the loan as a TDR and account for the interest due in accordance with our TDR policy. Restructured loans can involve loans remaining on nonaccrual, moving to nonaccrual, or continuing on accrual status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the borrower. The TDR is classified as an accruing TDR if the borrower has demonstrated the ability to meet the new terms of the restructuring as evidenced by a minimum of six months of performance in compliance with the restructured terms or if the borrower's performance prior to the restructuring or other significant events at the time of the restructuring supports returning or maintaining the loan on accrual status. TDRs accrue interest as long as the borrower complies with the revised terms and conditions and management is reasonably assured as to the collectability of principal and interest; otherwise, the restructured loan will be classified as nonaccrual. The TDR classification is removed when the loan is either fully repaid or is re-underwritten at market terms and an evaluation of the loan determines that it does not meet the definition of a TDR under current accounting guidance (i.e., the new terms do not represent a concession, the borrower is no longer experiencing financial difficulty, and the re-underwriting is executed at current market terms for new debt with similar risk). The composition of our restructured loans by loan category and current period activity for restructured loans accruing interest are presented in Tables 13 and 16.
Foreclosed real estate ("OREO") represents properties acquired as the result of borrower defaults on loans secured by a mortgage on real property. Refer to the following "Foreclosed Real Estate" section for additional discussion regarding our OREO assets.
As a result of our focused efforts in improving asset quality, we have seen a majority of our nonperforming asset credit quality metrics within the past two to three quarters hit their lowest levels since 2008 and begin to largely level off. Nonperforming assets declined 21% from the prior year end to $96.4 million at June 30, 2014 and declined 46% from June 30, 2013. The improvement in nonperforming assets was largely attributable to paydowns and payoffs. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were 0.66% at June 30, 2014, down from 0.87% at December 31, 2013.
OREO declined $8.7 million, or 31%, to $19.8 million from $28.5 million at December 31, 2013, as inflows to OREO were more than offset by sales of OREO and valuation adjustments as we continue to dispose and settle these properties. Refer to "Foreclosed Real Estate" below for further discussion on OREO.
Nonperforming loans totaled $76.6 million at June 30, 2014, down 18% from $94.2 million at December 31, 2013 and down 37% from June 30, 2013. Nonperforming loan inflows which are primarily comprised of potential problem loans moving through the workout process (i.e., moving from potential problem to nonperforming status) have steadily declined nearly every quarter since second quarter 2010, troughed in first quarter 2014 at $14.9 million and increased slightly by $1.4 million to $16.3 million in second quarter 2014. As shown in Table 14, second quarter 2014 nonperforming loan inflows were more than offset by problem loan resolutions (paydowns, payoffs, and return to accruing status), dispositions, and charge-offs. As shown in Table 15, which provides the nonperforming loan stratification by size, three nonperforming loans in excess of $5.0 million comprised 34% of our total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2014. Nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans was 0.69% at June 30, 2014, down from 0.89% at December 31, 2013 and 1.20% at June 30, 2013.
Disposition activity during the six months ended June 30, 2014 included the disposition of $32.5 million in problem assets, including $25.7 million in nonperforming loans, and $6.8 million in OREO. As of June 30, 2014, problem loans (which include special mention, potential problem, and nonperforming loans) increased 20% from $267.3 million at December 31, 2013 to $321.5 million at June 30, 2014 and reflected the growth of our commercial loan portfolio. Because our loan portfolio contains loans that may be larger in size in order to accommodate the financing needs of some of our borrowers, changes in the performance of larger
credits could create volatility and fluctuations in our credit quality metrics, including nonperforming loans, special mention and problem loans, and accruing TDR loans.
Accruing TDRs totaled $33.0 million at June 30, 2014, increasing $12.8 million, or 63%, from $20.2 million at December 31, 2013. As presented in the accruing TDR rollforward at Table 16, new accruing TDRs totaling $17.9 million were added during the first six months of 2014, of which $10 million related to a single borrower.
The following table provides a comparison of our nonperforming assets, restructured loans accruing interest, special mention, potential problem and past due loans for the past five periods.

| |
(2) | For the five quarters presented, the Company re-underwrote three loans totaling $2.4 million that, at the time of re-underwriting, were at market term and an evaluation of the loans determined that they did not meet the definition of a TDR under current accounting guidance because the loans qualified as pass-rated credits due to the strengthened financial condition of the borrowers. All of the loans were re-underwritten in conjunction with the loan maturity. None of the loans had principal or interest forgiveness at the time the loans were originally classified as a TDR. |

Foreclosed Real Estate
OREO represents property acquired as the result of borrower defaults on loans secured by a mortgage on real property. At foreclosure, OREO is recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs, which establishes a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, OREO is evaluated on a periodic basis and reported at fair value less estimated costs to sell, not to exceed the new cost basis, by current appraisals, as well as the review of comparable sales and other estimates of fair value obtained principally from independent sources, changes in absorption rates or market conditions from the time of the latest appraisal received or previous re-evaluation performed, and anticipated sales values considering management's plans for disposition. Write-downs are recorded for subsequent declines in fair value less estimated selling costs and are included in non-interest expense along with other expenses related to maintaining the properties.
Table 18 presents a rollforward of OREO for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and Table 19 presents the composition of OREO properties by categories at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

OREO totaled $19.8 million at June 30, 2014, down 31% from $28.5 million at December 31, 2013. During the second quarter 2014, inflows into OREO of $1.1 million were more than offset by OREO sales as we continue to dispose and settle these properties. Valuation adjustments on OREO for the second quarter 2014 were $2.3 million, down $3.9 million from second quarter 2013. At June 30, 2014, OREO land parcels, currently a fairly illiquid asset class, represented the largest portion of OREO at 52%. Office/industrial properties, the next largest OREO asset class, represented 32% of the total OREO.
During the second quarter 2014, properties sold primarily consisted of office/industrial properties, land parcels, and single family homes with a net book value of $2.6 million at a loss of $62,000. Our ability to sell commercial property that we acquire through foreclosure in a cost effective and timely manner is dependent on a number of factors including but not limited to, valuations, buyer interest, market liquidity, the pace and timing of the overall recovery of the economy, activity levels in the real estate market and real estate inventory coming into the market for sale. Gains or losses as a percent of net book value on sales of OREO property may fluctuate in future quarters should we alter our approach on individual or larger group dispositions of properties based on individual property characteristics or relevant market factors as part of our overall strategy to maximize economic recovery from OREO. Valuation adjustments may also fluctuate based on market pricing and stability.
Credit Quality Management and Allowance for Loan Losses
We maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level management believes is sufficient to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is assessed quarterly and represents an accounting estimate of probable losses in the portfolio at each balance sheet date based on a review of available and relevant information at that time. The allowance is not a prediction of our actual credit losses going forward. The allowance contains provisions for probable losses that have been identified
relating to specific borrowing relationships that are considered to be impaired (the "specific component" of the allowance), as well as probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio that are not specifically identified (the "general allocated component" of the allowance), which is determined using a methodology that is a function of quantitative and qualitative factors and management judgment applied to defined segments of our loan portfolio.
The specific component of the allowance relates to impaired loans. Impaired loans consist of nonaccrual loans (which include nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs")) and loans classified as accruing TDRs. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, management believes that either it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement or it has been classified as a TDR. All loans that are over 90 days past due in principal or interest are placed on nonaccrual status. Management may also place some loans on nonaccrual status before they are 90 days past due if they meet the above definition of "nonaccrual." Once a loan is determined to be impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the loan’s observable fair value, the fair value of the underlying collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral-dependent, or the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. Impaired loans exceeding $500,000 are evaluated individually while smaller loans are evaluated as pools using historical loss experience as well as management’s loss expectations for the respective asset class and product type. If the estimated fair value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest, net of deferred loan fees and costs and unamortized premium or discount), impairment is recognized by creating a specific reserve as a component of the allowance for loan losses. The recognition of any reserve required on new impaired loans is recorded in the same quarter in which the transfer of the loan to nonaccrual status occurred. All impaired loans are reviewed quarterly for any changes that would affect the specific reserve. Any impaired loan in which a determination has been made that the economic value is permanently reduced is charged-off against the allowance for loan losses to reflect its current economic value in the period in which the determination has been made.
At the time a collateral-dependent loan is initially determined to be impaired, we review the existing collateral appraisal. If the most recent appraisal is greater than one-year old, a new appraisal is obtained on the underlying collateral. The Company generally obtains "as is" appraisal values for use in the evaluation of collateral-dependent impaired loans. Appraisals for collateral-dependent impaired loans in excess of $500,000 are updated with new independent appraisals at least annually and are formally reviewed by our internal appraisal department. Additional diligence is also performed at the six-month interval between annual appraisals. If during the course of the six-month review process there is evidence supporting a meaningful decline in the value of collateral, the appraised value is either internally adjusted downward or a new appraisal is required to support the value of the impaired loan.
In addition to the appraisal, both borrower and market-specific factors are taken into consideration, which may result in obtaining more frequent appraisal updates or internal assessments. Appraisals are conducted by third-party independent appraisers under internal direction and engagement. Appraisals are either reviewed internally by our appraisal department or are sent to an outside firm if appropriate. Both levels of review involve a scope appropriate for the complexity and risk associated with the loan and its collateral. As part of our internal review process, we consider other factors or recent developments that could adjust the valuations indicated in the appraisals or internal reviews. To validate the reasonableness of the appraisals obtained, we may consider many factors, including a comparison of the appraised value to the actual sales price of similar properties, relevant comparable sale price listings, broker opinions, and local or regional real estate valuation and sales data.
As of June 30, 2014, the average appraisal age used in the impaired loan valuation process was approximately 176 days. The amount of impaired assets which, by policy, requires an independent appraisal, but does not have a current external appraisal at June 30, 2014 due to the timing of the receipt of the appraisal is not material. In situations such as this, we perform an internal assessment to determine if a probable impairment reserve is required for the account based on our experience in the related asset class and type.
The general allocated component of the allowance is determined using a methodology that is a function of quantitative and qualitative factors applied to segments of our loan portfolio. The methodology takes into account at a product level originating line of business (transformational or legacy), year of origination, the risk-rating migration of the loans, and historical default and loss history of similar products. Using this information, the methodology produces credit metrics which provide a range of possible reserve amounts by product type. Use of the loss emergence period information by product type provides an important reference point for determining the appropriate range of reserves for a specific product category. We consider the appropriate balance of the general allocated component of the reserve within these ranges based on a variety of internal and external quantitative and qualitative factors to reflect data or timeframes not captured by the model as well as market and economic data, estimate of the loss emergence period and management judgment. We consider relevant factors related to individual product types and will also consider, when appropriate, changes in lending practices, changes in business or economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of loans, changes in staffing or management, changes in the quality of our results from loan reviews, changes in collateral values, concentration risks, and other external factors such as legal or regulatory matters relevant to management’s assessment of required
reserve levels. In certain instances, these additional factors and judgments may lead to management’s conclusion that the appropriate level of the reserve is outside the range determined through the quantitative framework with respect to a given product type.
The Bank has limited exposure with a related junior collateral position in any product type with the exception of home equity lines of credit ("HELOCs"). This product is by definition usually secured in the junior position to the first mortgage on the related property. The Bank evaluates the allowance for loan losses for HELOCs as one of our six primary, segregated product types and considers the potential impact of the junior security position (as opposed to our generally senior position in all other product types) in setting final allocated reserve amounts for this product. Our allowance reflects the performance and loss history unique to our portfolio.
In our evaluation of the quantitatively-determined range and the adequacy of the allowance at June 30, 2014, we considered a number of factors for each product that included, but were not limited to, the following:
| |
• | for the commercial portfolio, the pace of growth in the commercial loan sector, portfolio credit performance, impact of competition on loan structures, the existence of larger individual credits and specialized industry concentrations, comparison of our default rates to overall U.S. industry averages at industry subsets, default emergence from recent years compared to historical stressed periods, the loss emergence period, results of "back testing" of model results versus actual recent charge-off history, recent rating migrations into problem loan categories and other portfolio trends, as well as general macroeconomic indicators, such as GDP, employment trends and manufacturing activity, which still are susceptible to sustainability risk; |
| |
• | for the commercial real estate portfolio, the potential impact of general commercial real estate trends, particularly occupancy and leasing rate trends, charge-off severity, nonperforming loan inflows, default likelihood in our book versus the general U.S. averages, loss emergence period, default emergence from recent years compared to historical stressed periods, results of "back testing" of model results versus recent charge-off history, collateral value changes in commercial real estate, and the impact that a negative general macroeconomic condition could have on this sector; |
| |
• | for the construction portfolio, construction employment, industry experience on construction loan losses, loss emergence period, construction spending rates, and improved valuation basis of the recent growth in the portfolio; and |
| |
• | for the residential, home equity, and personal portfolios, home price indices and delinquency rates, loss emergence period, and general economic conditions and interest rate trends which impact these products. |
In determining our June 30, 2014 reserve levels, we established a general reserve level which was higher than our model's output range, in total. This judgment was influenced primarily by recent indicators in our transformational commercial portfolio, specifically, (i) increased velocity into criticized loan categories specifically from larger loan sizes in the portfolio which can cause volatility in the reserve requirement, (ii) the impact of competition on loan structures, (iii) a slight degradation in the portfolio's weighted average risk rating, and (iv) the lengthening of the loss emergence period. At the same time, management did not provide a meaningful qualitative adjustment to the model output for transformational commercial real estate loans compared to prior periods as a result of improving portfolio attributes (including a decrease in weighted average risk rating, loss given default and criticized and non-performing loan inflows) and improvement evident in the commercial real estate markets.
Management also considers the amount and characteristics of the accruing TDRs removed from the general reserve formulas as a proxy for potentially heightened risk in the portfolio when establishing final reserve requirements.
The establishment of the allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of judgment and includes an inherent level of imprecision given the difficulty of identifying all the factors impacting loan repayment and the timing of when losses actually occur. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond our control, including, but not limited to, client performance, the economy, changes in interest rates and property values, and the interpretation by regulatory authorities of loan classifications.
Although we determine the amount of each element of the allowance separately and consider this process to be an important credit management tool, the entire allowance for loan losses is available for the entire loan portfolio.
Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and reviews the underlying methodology with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors quarterly. As of June 30, 2014, management concluded the allowance for loan losses was adequate (i.e., sufficient to absorb losses that are inherent in the portfolio at that date, including those loans not yet identifiable).
As an integral part of their examination process, various federal and state regulatory agencies also review the allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require that certain loan balances be classified differently or charged off when their credit evaluations differ from those of management, based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.
The accounting policies underlying the establishment and maintenance of the allowance for loan losses through provisions charged to operating expense are discussed more fully in Note 1 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
The following table presents changes in the allowance for loan losses, excluding covered assets, for the periods presented.

Gross charge-offs declined 69% to $4.7 million for the second quarter 2014 from $15.0 million for the year ago period and down slightly from $4.9 million for first quarter 2014. Commercial comprised 46% of total charge-offs, while commercial real estate comprised 44% of total charge-offs in the second quarter 2014. Total recoveries for the second quarter 2014 returned to a more normalized level following an elevated level for the prior two quarters which was primarily attributable to recoveries on a single commercial credit that was previously charged-off and no longer included in outstanding loans.
The allowance for loan losses increased $3.4 million to $146.5 million at June 30, 2014 from $143.1 million at December 31, 2013. The change in allowance levels was influenced by a decline in nonperforming loans offset by loan growth, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, some increase in potential problem and special mention loan balances, and changes in the quantitative component of the allowance factors. The provision for loan losses for the quarter declined to $2.0 million, compared to $3.4 million for the prior quarter and $8.3 million for second quarter 2013, and was aided by $2.4 million in recoveries of
previously charged-off loans and the release of specific reserves established for problem credits resolved in the second quarter 2014. The provision for loan losses may fluctuate quarter to quarter based on loan growth and unevenness in credit quality due to size of individual credits. The allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio was 1.32% at June 30, 2014 and 1.34% at December 31, 2013.

Under our methodology, the allowance for loan losses is comprised of the following components:
General Allocated Component of the Allowance
The general allocated component of the allowance increased by $7.3 million, or 6%, from $120.7 million at December 31, 2013 to $128.0 million at June 30, 2014. The increase in the general allocated reserve was primarily influenced by the increased reserve needs to reflect the growing loan portfolio and changes in the credit quality of the existing portfolio for certain segments. In addition, lower loss rates are being applied to a larger portion of the total loan portfolio as the portfolio is becoming more weighted in transformational loans, where our historical credit performance has been better, and less weighted in legacy loans, where historical performance has been weaker.
Specific Component of the Allowance
The specific reserve requirements are the summation of individual reserves related to impaired loans that are analyzed on an account by account basis at the balance sheet date. Once a loan is determined to be impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the loan's observable fair value; fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated selling costs, if the loan is collateral-dependent; or the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. At June 30, 2014, the specific component of the allowance totaled $18.5 million, down from $22.4 million at December 31, 2013 with the decrease being largely driven by a release of specific reserves established for problem credits resolved in the second quarter 2014. At June 30, 2014, impaired loans totaled $109.6 million of which over 90% are collateral-dependent. Of the $109.6 million in impaired loans at June 30, 2014, 46% required a specific reserve, compared to 60% at December 31, 2013 of the $114.4 million in total impaired loans.
Reserve for Unfunded Commitments
In addition to the allowance for loan losses, we maintain a reserve for unfunded commitments at a level we believe to be sufficient to absorb estimated probable losses related to unfunded credit facilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, our reserve for unfunded commitments increased $157,000 from $9.2 million at December 31, 2013 to $9.4 million and consisted of $9.1
million in general reserve and the remaining $281,000 in specific reserves at June 30, 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, general reserves increased $671,000 driven by higher unfunded commitment levels and an increase in the likelihood of certain product categories to draw on unused lines and loss factors. This was partially offset by a release in the specific reserve of $514,000 related to an individual credit. Net adjustments to the reserve for unfunded commitments are included in other non-interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Unfunded commitments, excluding covered assets, totaled $5.1 billion and $5.0 billion at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. At June 30, 2014, unfunded commitments with maturities of less than one year approximated $1.6 billion. For further information on our unfunded commitments, refer to Note 15 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
COVERED ASSETS
Covered assets represent purchased loans and foreclosed loan collateral covered under a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC as a result of the 2009 FDIC-assisted acquisition of the former Founders Bank from the FDIC. Under the loss share agreement, generally the FDIC will assume 80% of the first $173 million of credit losses and 95% of the credit losses in excess of $173 million, in both cases relating to assets that existed on the date of acquisition. The loss share agreement expires on September 30, 2014 for non-residential mortgage loans and September 30, 2019 for residential mortgage loans. At the time of expiration, the loans will transfer into the respective asset class within our held for investment loan portfolio. We do not expect a material impact to our financial results from the expiration of the loss share agreement on non-residential mortgage loans.
The carrying amounts of covered assets as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are presented in the following table.

Net covered assets | $ | 66,672 |
| | $ | 96,235 |
|
Net covered assets declined by $29.6 million, or 31%, from $96.2 million at December 31, 2013 to $66.7 million at June 30, 2014. The reduction was primarily attributable to $20.9 million in principal paydowns, net of advances, as well as the impact of such on the evaluation of expected cash flows and discount accretion levels. In addition, the estimated loss reimbursements by the FDIC ("the FDIC indemnification receivable") further contributed to the reduction as a result of loss claims paid by the FDIC and amortization of the receivable. The allowance for covered loan losses declined by $2.1 million to $14.4 million at June 30, 2014 from $16.5 million at December 31, 2013, largely due to $1.7 million in recoveries, as well as the payoff of certain covered loan pools and the change in expected cash flows on certain covered loan pools lowered the allowance requirement. As of June 30, 2014, the FDIC had reimbursed the Company $120.3 million in losses under the loss share agreement.
Covered loan delinquencies total $2.0 million at June 30, 2014, an increase of $346,000 from $1.7 million at December 31, 2013. Nonaccrual covered loans declined by $3.8 million, or 24%, from $15.6 million as of December 31, 2013 to $11.8 million as of June 30, 2014. Covered loan delinquencies and nonaccrual loans exclude purchased impaired loans which are accounted for on a pool basis. Since each purchased impaired pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate expectation of cash flows, the past due status of the pools, or that of individual loans within the pools, is not meaningful. Because we are recognizing interest income on each pool of such loans, they are all considered to be performing. Covered assets are excluded from the asset quality presentation of our originated loan portfolio, given the loss share indemnification from the FDIC.
FUNDING AND LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT
We have implemented various policies to manage our liquidity position in order to meet our cash flow requirements and maintain sufficient capacity to meet our clients’ needs and accommodate fluctuations in asset and liability levels due to changes in our business operations as well as unanticipated events. We also have in place contingency funding plans designed to allow us to operate through a period of stress when access to normal sources of funding may be constrained. As part of our asset/liability management strategy, we utilize a variety of funding sources in an effort to optimize the balance of duration risk, cost, liquidity risk and contingency planning.
The Bank’s principal sources of funds are client deposits, including large institutional deposits, brokered time deposits, wholesale borrowings, and cash from operations. The Bank’s principal uses of funds include funding growth in the core asset portfolios, including loans, and to a lesser extent, our investment portfolio, which is used primarily to manage liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The primary sources of funding for the Holding Company include dividends when received from its bank subsidiary, intercompany tax reimbursements from the Bank, and proceeds from the issuance of senior and subordinated debt, as well as equity. During first quarter 2014, the Bank paid a $50 million dividend to the Holding Company. In September 2013, the Company entered into a 364-day revolving line of credit with a group of commercial banks allowing borrowings of up to $60.0 million as an additional source of working capital. At June 30, 2014, no amounts have been drawn on the facility. Net liquid assets at the Holding Company totaled $92.9 million at June 30, 2014 and $55.9 million at December 31, 2013.
We consider client deposits our core funding source. At June 30, 2014, 80% of our total assets were funded by deposits we consider client deposits, compared to 82% at December 31, 2013. We define client deposits as all deposits other than non-client traditional brokered time deposits and non-client CDARS® (as described in the footnotes to Table 24 below). Client deposits include omnibus accounts maintained by financial service companies and other firms comprised of underlying deposits of their customers, some of which may be classified as brokered deposits for regulatory purposes. While we expect overall liquidity in the banking system to remain high while the economy recovers and market factors improve, the level of our client deposits may fluctuate significantly based on client needs and other economic, market or regulatory factors, including deposit insurance limits. If client deposits decline, we would expect to rely on other sources of liquidity, including wholesale funding.
Given the commercial focus of our core business strategy, a majority of our deposit base is comprised of corporate accounts which are typically larger than retail accounts. We offer a suite of deposit and cash management products and services that support our efforts to attract and retain corporate client accounts, resulting in a concentration of large deposits in our funding base.
The following table presents a comparison of our large deposit relationships as of the dates shown.

Commercial deposits are held in various deposit products we offer, including interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing demand deposits, CDARS®, savings and money market accounts. The CDARS® deposit program allows clients to obtain greater FDIC deposit insurance for time deposits in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. Through our community banking and private wealth groups, we offer a variety of personal banking products, including checking, savings and money market accounts and CDs, which serve as an additional source of client deposits.
We take deposit concentration risk into account in managing our liquid asset levels. Liquid assets refer to cash on hand, federal funds sold and securities. Net liquid assets represent the sum of the liquid asset categories less the amount of such assets pledged to secure public funds and other deposits that require collateral, and for other purposes as required or permitted by law. Net liquid assets at the Bank were $2.5 billion and $2.4 billion at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
We maintain liquidity at levels we believe sufficient to meet anticipated client liquidity needs, fund anticipated loan growth, selectively purchase securities and investments, and opportunistically pay down wholesale funds. Client deposit movements respond to their business and liquidity requirements, which are in part cyclical, to market and economic conditions, and to the pricing and types of deposits offered by the Bank.
While we first look toward internally generated deposits as our funding source, we also utilize FHLB funding and other wholesale funding, including brokered time deposits, as needed to enhance liquidity and to fund asset growth. Brokered time deposits are deposits that are primarily sourced from unrelated financial institutions by a third party. Brokered time deposits can vary in term from one month to several years and have the benefit of being a source of longer-term funding. Our asset/liability management policy currently limits our use of brokered deposits, excluding client CDARS® and other client related brokered deposits, to levels no more than 25% of total deposits, and total brokered deposits (as defined for regulatory reporting purposes) to levels no more than 40% of total deposits. Brokered deposits exclusive of client CDARS® and other client related brokered deposits were 5% and 3% of total deposits at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. At June 30, 2014, total brokered deposits were $1.5 billion and included $343.0 million of certain client accounts that are omnibus in nature representing underlying accounts of their customers that are placed in interest-bearing demand deposits, money market accounts and time deposits of the Bank.
Our cash flows are comprised of three classifications: cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing activities, and cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from operating activities primarily include results of operations for the period, adjusted for items in net income that did not impact cash. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $83.1 million
from the prior year period to $42.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Cash flows from investing activities reflect the impact of loans and investments acquired for our interest-earning asset portfolios and asset maturities and sales. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net cash used in investing activities was $523.5 million, compared to $196.4 million for the prior year period. This change in cash flows primarily represents larger amounts of cash redeployed towards the funding of loans in the six months ended June 30, 2014 than the prior year period. Cash flows from financing activities include transactions and events whereby cash is obtained from and/or paid to depositors, creditors or investors. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $448.2 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $572.3 million for the prior year period. The current period financing cash flows primarily represents a net increase in FHLB advances of $230.0 million, and a $222.6 million increase in deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to support 2014 loan growth.

Deposits
The primary source of our deposit base is middle market commercial client relationships from a diversified industry base in our markets. Due to our middle market commercial banking focused business model, our client deposit base provides access to larger deposit balances that result in a concentrated deposit base.

(1) | The CDARS® deposit program is a deposit services arrangement that effectively achieves FDIC deposit insurance for jumbo deposit relationships. These deposits are classified as brokered time deposits for regulatory deposit purposes; however, we classify certain of these deposits as client CDARS® due to the source being our client relationships and are, therefore, not client other brokered time deposits. We also participate in a non-client CDARS® program that is more like a non-client traditional brokered time deposit program. |

Total deposits at June 30, 2014 increased by $222.6 million from year end 2013, primarily driven by a 5% increase in money market accounts and a 7% increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. The deposit balances of our commercial clients may fluctuate depending on their cash management and liquidity needs. Client deposits as a percentage of total deposits were 95% and 97% of deposits at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The deposit to loan ratio was 109.9% at June 30, 2014 compared to 112.9% at December 31, 2013.
Total brokered time deposits were $1.3 billion at June 30, 2014, up $51.2 million from December 31, 2013. Brokered time deposits fluctuate based upon the Bank's general funding needs related to deposits, loans and other funding needs. Brokered time deposits at June 30, 2014 included $667.7 million in client deposits, representing over 50% of total brokered time deposits.
Public balances, denoting the funds held on account for municipalities and other public entities, are included as a part of our total deposits. We enter into specific agreements with certain public customers to pledge collateral, primarily securities, in support of the balances on account. These relationships may provide cross-sell opportunities with treasury management, as well as other business referral opportunities. At June 30, 2014, we had public funds on account totaling $901.2 million, of which approximately 22% were collateralized with securities. At December 31, 2013, public fund balances totaled $965.4 million. Changes in balances are influenced by the tax collection activities of the various municipalities as well as the general level of interest rates.

Over the past several years in the generally low interest rate environment, our clients have tended to keep the maturities of their deposits short, and short-term certificates of deposit have generally been renewed on terms and with maturities of similar duration. In the event that time deposits are not renewed, we expect to replace those deposits with brokered time deposits, or borrowed money sufficient to meet our funding needs.
Short-term and Secured Borrowings and Long-term Debt
Short-term borrowings at June 30, 2014 totaled $233.0 million, up 231.0 million from the $2.0 million at December 31, 2013. Short-term borrowings represent borrowings that mature in one year or less and at June 30, 2014 consisted solely of FHLB advances.
We may continue to use FHLB advances to meet our funding needs although we may choose to use brokered time deposits as an alternative depending on cost and certain other factors.
Also included in short-term and secured borrowings on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition are amounts related to certain loan participation agreements on loans we originated that were classified as secured borrowings as they did not qualify for sale accounting treatment. As of June 30, 2014, these loan participation agreements totaled $2.3 million. A corresponding amount was recorded within loans on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Long-term debt, which is comprised of junior subordinated debentures, subordinated debt, and the long-term portion of FHLB advances, totaled $626.8 million at June 30, 2014 and $627.8 million at December 31, 2013. The weighted average interest rate on $257.0 million outstanding FHLB advances at June 30, 2014 was 0.21%. The earliest scheduled maturity of long term-debt is $252.0 million of FHLB advances due in December 2015.
In addition to on-balance sheet funding and other liquid assets such as cash and investment securities, we maintain access to various external sources of funding, which assist in the prudent management of funding costs, interest rate risk, and anticipated funding needs or other considerations. Some sources of funding are accessible same-day while others require advance notice. Funds that are immediately accessible include Federal Fund counterparty lines, which are uncommitted lines of credit from other financial institutions, and the borrowing term is typically overnight. Availability of Federal Fund lines fluctuate based on market conditions and counterparty relationship strength. Unused overnight Fed Funds borrowings available for use totaled $610.0 million at June 30, 2014 and $520.0 million at December 31, 2013, respectively.
We had borrowing capacity of $858.3 million with the FHLB Chicago at June 30, 2014, of which $378.0 million was available, subject to the additional investment in FHLB Chicago stock required. The borrowing capacity is subject to change based on the availability of acceptable collateral to pledge and the level of our investment in FHLB Chicago stock. This borrowing source may be utilized by the Bank for short-term funding needs, including overnight advances as well as long-term funding needs.
Repurchase agreements ("Repos") are also an immediate source of funding in which we pledge assets to a counterparty against which we can borrow with the agreement to repurchase at a specified date in the future. Repos can vary in term, from overnight to longer, but are regarded as short-term in nature.
The discount window at the FRB is an additional source of overnight funding. We maintain access to the discount window by pledging loans as collateral to the FRB. Funding availability is primarily dictated by the amount of loans pledged, but also impacted by the margin applied to the loans by the FRB. The amount of loans pledged to the FRB can fluctuate due to the availability of loans eligible under the FRB’s criteria which include stipulations of documentation requirements, credit quality, payment status and other criteria. At June 30, 2014, we had $452.0 million in borrowing capacity through the FRB discount window’s primary credit program compared to $621.9 million at December 31, 2013.
CAPITAL
Equity totaled $1.4 billion at June 30, 2014, increasing by $95.9 million compared to December 31, 2013, and is primarily due to net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 of $75.3 million, along with a $13.6 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, which is mainly associated with an increase in market values on our available-for-sale investment portfolio.
Capital Management
Under applicable regulatory capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank are subject to various capital requirements adopted and administered by the federal banking agencies. These guidelines specify minimum capital ratios calculated in accordance with the definitions in the guidelines, including the leverage ratio which is Tier 1 capital as a percentage of adjusted average assets, and the Tier 1 capital ratio and the total capital ratio each as a percentage of risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet items that have been weighted according to broad risk categories. These minimum ratios are shown in the table below.
To satisfy safety and soundness standards, banking institutions are expected to maintain capital levels in excess of the regulatory minimums depending on the risk inherent in the balance sheet, regulatory expectations and the changing risk profile of business activities. Under our capital management policy, we conduct periodic stress testing of our capital adequacy and target capital ratios at levels above regulatory minimums that we believe are appropriate based on various other risk considerations, including the current operating and economic environment and outlook, internal risk guidelines, and our strategic objectives as well as regulatory expectations.
The following table presents information about our capital measures and the related regulatory capital guidelines.

(2) | For purposes of our presentation, we calculate this ratio under currently effective requirements and without giving effect to the final Basel III capital rules adopted and issued by the Federal Reserve Board in July 2013, which are effective January 1, 2014 with compliance required January 1, 2015. |
As of June 30, 2014, all of our $244.8 million of outstanding junior subordinated debentures ("Debentures") held by trusts that issued trust preferred securities, which as a percentage of Tier 1 capital was 16%, are included in Tier 1 capital. The Tier 1 qualifying amount is limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital as defined under FRB regulations. Under the final regulatory capital rules issued in 2013, the Tier 1 capital treatment for the Company's trust preferred securities will be grandfathered, subject to the 25% limitation of Tier 1 capital. In the event we make an acquisition and the resulting organization has total consolidated assets of $15 billion or more, the Tier 1 capital treatment for these instruments will be subject to the phase-out schedule for bank holding companies with greater than $15 billion in total assets. All of our outstanding trust preferred securities are callable by us and we may, from time to time, redeem some or all of these securities with internal resources or with other instruments depending on market conditions and other factors.
For a full description of our Debentures and subordinated debt, refer to Notes 9 and 10 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
Dividends
We declared dividends of $0.01 per common share during the second quarter 2014, unchanged from 2013. Based on the closing stock price at June 30, 2014 of $29.06, the annualized dividend yield on our common stock was 0.14%. The dividend payout ratio, which represents the percentage of common dividends declared to stockholders to basic earnings per share, was 1.92% for the second quarter 2014 compared to 2.70% for the second quarter 2013. While we have no current plans to raise dividends on our
common stock, our Board of Directors regularly evaluates our dividend payout ratio, taking into consideration internal capital guidelines, and our strategic objectives and business plans.
For additional information regarding limitations and restrictions on our ability to pay dividends, refer to the "Supervision and Regulation" and "Risk Factors" sections of our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Stock Repurchases and Shares Issued in Connection with Share-Based Compensation Plans
We currently do not have a stock repurchase program in place; however, we have repurchased shares in connection with the administration of our employee benefit plans. Under the terms of these plans, we accept shares of common stock from plan participants if they elect to surrender previously-owned shares upon exercise of options to cover the exercise price or, in the case of both restricted shares of common stock or stock options, the withholding of shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations associated with the vesting of restricted shares or exercise of stock options. During the second quarter 2014, we repurchased 37,091 shares with an average value of $31.24 per share.
The Company issues shares from treasury, when available, or new shares to fulfill its obligation to issue shares granted pursuant to the share-based compensation plans. The Company held 32,000 and 274,000 shares in the treasury at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The reduction in shares held is primarily attributable to the annual granting of restricted stock awards in February 2014 as part of the Company's 2013 annual incentive and 2014 long-term incentive programs as well as for stock option exercises during the first half of 2014.
NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release contains both U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP based financial measures. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures include net interest income, net interest margin, net revenue, operating profit, and efficiency ratio all on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, return on average tangible common equity, Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tangible book value. We believe that presenting these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures will provide information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance, our business, and performance trends and facilitates comparisons with the performance of others in the banking industry.
We use net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating various performance measures by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments assuming a 35% tax rate. Management believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income as it enhances comparability to net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources, and accordingly believes that providing this measure may be useful for peer comparison purposes.
In addition to capital ratios defined by banking regulators, we also consider various measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy, including return on average tangible common equity, Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tangible book value. These calculations are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by banking regulators for both absolute and comparative purposes. All of these measures exclude the ending balances of goodwill and other intangibles while certain of these ratios exclude preferred capital components. Because U.S. GAAP does not include capital ratio measures, we believe there are no comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures to these ratios. We believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are relevant because they provide information that is helpful in assessing the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions. Additionally, presentation of these measures allows readers to compare certain aspects of our capitalization to other companies. However, because there are no standardized definitions for these ratios, our calculations may not be comparable with other companies, and this may affect the usefulness of these measures to investors. Calculations of the Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets ratio contained herein exclude the effect of the final Basel III capital rules adopted and issued by the Federal Reserve Board in July 2013, which are effective January 1, 2014 with compliance required January 1, 2015.
Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under U.S. GAAP. As a result, we encourage readers to consider our Consolidated Financial Statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
The following table reconciles non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to U.S. GAAP.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a continuing part of our asset/liability management, we attempt to manage the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on our net interest income. This effort entails providing a reasonable balance between interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and maintenance of yield. We may manage interest rate risk by structuring the asset and liability characteristics of our balance sheet and/or by executing derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. We initiated the use of interest rate derivatives as part of our asset liability management strategy in July 2011 to hedge interest rate risk in our primarily floating-rate loan portfolio and, depending on market conditions, we may expand this program and enter into additional interest rate swaps.
Interest rate changes do not affect all categories of assets and liabilities equally or simultaneously. There are other factors that are difficult to measure and predict that would influence the effect of interest rate fluctuations on our Consolidated Statements of Income.
The majority of our interest-earning assets are floating-rate instruments. At June 30, 2014, approximately 77% of the total loan portfolio is indexed to LIBOR, 18% of the total loan portfolio is indexed to the prime rate, and another 1% of the total loan portfolio otherwise adjusts with other reference interest rates. Of the $7.5 billion in loans maturing after one year with a floating interest rate, $1.3 billion are subject to interest rate floors, of which 91% are in effect at June 30, 2014 and are reflected in the interest sensitivity analysis below. It is anticipated that as loans renew at maturity, it will be difficult to maintain existing floors given the competitive environment. To manage the interest rate risk of our balance sheet, we have the ability to use a combination of financial instruments, including medium-term and short-term financings, variable-rate debt instruments, fixed-rate loans and securities and interest rate swaps.
We use a simulation model to estimate the potential impact of various interest rate changes on our income statement and our interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability portfolios. The starting point of the analysis is the current size and nature of these portfolios at the beginning of the measurement period as well as the then-current applicable pricing structures. During the twelve-month measurement period, the model will re-price assets and liabilities based on the contractual terms and market rates in effect at the beginning of the measurement period and assuming instantaneous parallel shifts in the applicable yield curves and instruments remain at that new interest rate through the end of the twelve-month measurement period. The model only analyzes changes in the portfolios based on assets and liabilities at the beginning of the measurement period and does not assume any changes from growth or business plans over the following twelve months.
The sensitivity analysis is based on numerous assumptions including: the nature and timing of interest rate levels including the shape of the yield curve, prepayments on loans and securities, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, reinvestment/replacement of asset and liability cash flows and others. While our assumptions are developed based upon current economic and local market conditions, we cannot make any assurances as to the predictive nature of these assumptions including how client preferences or competitor influences might change. In addition, the simulation model assumes certain one-time instantaneous interest rate shifts that are consistent across all yield curves and do not continue to increase over the measurement period. As such, these assumptions and modeling reflect an estimation of the sensitivity to interest rates or market risk and do not predict the timing and direction of interest rates or the shape and steepness of the yield curves. Therefore, the actual results may differ materially from these simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.
Modeling the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in market interest rates is highly dependent on numerous assumptions incorporated into the modeling process. These assumptions are periodically reviewed and updated in the context of various internal and external factors including balance sheet changes, product offerings, product mix, external micro- and macro-economic factors, anticipated client behavior and anticipated Company and market pricing behavior, all of which may occur in dynamic and non-linear fashion. During 2013 and the second quarter 2014, we conducted historical deposit re-pricing and deposit lifespan/retention analyses and adjusted our forward-looking assumptions related to client and market behavior. Based on our analyses and judgments, we modified the core deposit product repricing characteristics and retention periods, as well as average life estimates, used in our interest rate risk modeling which reflects higher interest rate sensitivity of our deposits.
Based on our current simulation modeling assumptions, the following table shows the estimated impact of an immediate change in interest rates as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Percent change | | -1.8 | % | | 3.7 | % | | 6.9 | % | | 14.5 | % | | 22.5 | % |
The table above illustrates the estimated impact to our net interest income over a one-year period is reflected in dollar terms and percentage change. As an example, if there had been an instantaneous parallel shift in the yield curve of +100 basis points on June 30, 2014, net interest income would increase by $29.6 million or 7.2% over a twelve-month period, as compared to a net interest income increase of $27.6 million, or 6.9%, if there had been an instantaneous parallel shift of +100 basis points at December 31, 2013. The change in the overall interest rate asset sensitivity at June 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013, is primarily due to balance sheet migrations into rate sensitive assets funded by offsetting migrations to rate-sensitive liabilities since December 31, 2013. Additionally, assumptions modified in 2013 and the first half of 2014 had the impact of reducing overall asset sensitivity as we identified certain liabilities that demonstrated increased rate sensitivity, particularly in rate shock environments of higher magnitude. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, assets migrated from rate-sensitive short-term investments into loans and investment securities, however the rate sensitivity of assets was generally constant. This effect was furthered by the continued expansion of the hedging program. Based on the modeling, the Company remains in an asset sensitive position and would benefit from a rise in interest rates. We will continue to periodically review and refine, as appropriate, the assumptions used in our interest rate risk modeling.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation Date"), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In June 2013, we were served with a complaint naming the Bank as an additional defendant in a lawsuit pending in the Circuit Court of the 21st Judicial Circuit, Kankakee County, Illinois known as Maas vs. Marek et. al. The lawsuit, brought by the beneficiaries of two trusts for which the Bank is serving as the successor trustee, seeks reimbursement of penalties and interest assessed by the IRS due to the late payment of certain generation skipping taxes by the trusts, as well as certain related attorney fees and other damages. The other named defendants include legal and accounting professionals that provided services related to the matters involved. In January 2014, the Circuit Court denied the Bank’s motion to dismiss, and the matter is now in the discovery process. Thereafter, the parties have agreed to participate in court-ordered non-binding mediation. Although we are not able to predict the likelihood of an adverse outcome, we currently anticipate that ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
As of June 30, 2014, there were various other legal proceedings pending against the Company and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of these proceedings will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
