Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Employee Benefit Plans | Employee Benefit Plans Employee Savings Plan Substantially all of the Company's employees are eligible to participate in the Umpqua Bank 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan, a defined contribution and profit sharing plan sponsored by the Company. Employees may elect to have a portion of their salary contributed to the plan in conformity with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. At the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, the Company may elect to make matching and/or profit sharing contributions to the Umpqua Bank 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan based on profits of the Bank. The Company's contributions charged to expense including the match and profit sharing amounted to $20.9 million, $10.6 million, and $10.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The Company maintains an ESP Plan in which substantially all employees of historical Columbia were eligible to participate, prior to the Merger. The ESP Plan provided participants the opportunity to purchase common stock of the Company at a discounted price. Under the ESP Plan, participants purchased common stock of the Company for 90% of the lowest price on either the first or last day in the look-back period of six months from January 1st through June 30th of 2023. A 10% discount was recognized by the Company as compensation expense and did not have a material impact on net income or earnings per common share. Participants of the ESP Plan purchased 58,440 shares for $1.2 million in 2023. At December 31, 2023, there were 27,206 shares available for purchase under the ESP Plan. Supplemental Retirement/Deferred Compensation Plans The Company has established a Supplemental Retirement & Deferred Compensation Plan, a nonqualified deferred compensation plan to help supplement the retirement income of certain highly compensated executives selected by resolution of the Board. The SRP/DCP has two components, a supplemental retirement plan and a deferred compensation plan. The Company may make discretionary contributions to the SRP. The SRP balances as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $517,000 and $568,000, respectively, and are recorded in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Under the DCP, eligible officers may elect to defer up to 50% of their salary into a plan account. The DCP balance was $13.1 million and $9.7 million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In addition, the Company has established a supplemental retirement plan for the former Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors. The balance for this plan was $16.7 million and $8.7 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed a SERP, which is unsecured and unfunded and there are no program assets. The SERP projected benefit obligation, which represents the vested net present value of future payments to individuals under the plan, is accrued over the estimated remaining term of employment of the participants and has been determined by actuarial valuation using a discount rate of 5.02% for 2023. Additional assumptions and features of the plan are a normal retirement age of 65 and a 2% annual cost of living benefit adjustment. The projected benefit obligation of $18.8 million is included in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Acquired Plans In connection with prior acquisitions, the Bank assumed liability for certain salary continuation, supplemental retirement, and deferred compensation plans for key employees, retired employees, and directors of acquired institutions. Subsequent to the effective date of these acquisitions, no additional contributions were made to these plans. These plans are unfunded and provide for the payment of a specified amount on a monthly basis for a specified period (generally 10 to 20 years) after retirement. In the event of a participant employee's death prior to or during retirement, the Bank, in certain cases, is obligated to pay to the designated beneficiary the benefits set forth under the plans. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, liabilities recorded for the estimated present value of future plan benefits totaled $49.0 million and $25.6 million, respectively, and are recorded in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, expense recorded for these benefits totaled $4.8 million, $1.5 million, and $2.2 million, respectively. Rabbi Trusts The Bank has established, for the SRP/DCP plan noted above, and sponsors, for some deferred compensation plans assumed in connection with prior mergers, irrevocable trusts commonly referred to as rabbi trusts. The trust assets (generally trading assets) are consolidated in the Company's balance sheets and the associated liability (which equals the related asset balances) is included in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The asset and liability balances related to these trusts as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $13.7 million and $11.4 million, respectively. Bank-Owned Life Insurance The Bank has purchased, or acquired through mergers, life insurance policies in connection with the implementation of certain executive supplemental income, salary continuation and deferred compensation retirement plans. These policies provide protection against the adverse financial effects that could result from the death of a key employee and provide tax-exempt income to offset expenses associated with the plans. It is the Bank's intent to hold these policies as a long-term investment. However, there will be an income tax impact if the Bank chooses to surrender certain policies. Although the lives of individual current or former management-level employees are insured, the Bank is the owner and sole or partial beneficiary. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the cash surrender value of these policies was $680.9 million and $331.8 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Bank also had liabilities for post-retirement benefits payable to other partial beneficiaries under some of these life insurance policies of $6.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The Bank is exposed to credit risk to the extent an insurance company is unable to fulfill its financial obligations under a policy. In order to mitigate this risk, the Bank uses a variety of insurance companies and regularly monitors their financial condition.
