Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1: Significant Accounting Policies ​ Nature of Operations ​ First Busey Corporation, a Nevada corporation organized in 1980, is a $12.6 billion financial holding company headquartered in Champaign, Illinois. Our common stock is traded on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “BUSE.” ​ The Company operates and reports its business in three segments: Banking, FirsTech, and Wealth Management. ​ Banking ​ The Banking operating segment provides a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers through the Company’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Busey Bank, with 58 banking centers in Illinois; the St. Louis, Missouri metropolitan area; southwest Florida; and Indianapolis, Indiana. ​ FirsTech ​ The FirsTech operating segment provides comprehensive and innovative payment technology solutions that include, but are not limited to, text-based mobile bill pay; electronic payment concentration delivered to Automated Clearing House networks, money management, and credit card networks; walk-in payment processing for customers at retail pay agents; customer service payments made over a telephone; direct debit services; and lockbox remittance processing for customers to make payments by mail. FirsTech also provides additional tools to help clients with billing, reconciliation, bill reminders, and treasury services. ​ Wealth Management ​ The Wealth Management operating segment provides a full range of asset management, investment, brokerage, fiduciary, philanthropic advisory, tax preparation, and farm management services to individuals, businesses, and foundations. ​ Basis of Financial Statement Presentation ​ These unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2021 Annual Report. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements serve to update our 2021 Annual Report and may not include all information and notes necessary to constitute a complete set of financial statements. ​ We prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. We have eliminated intercompany accounts and transactions. We have also reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations. ​ In our opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments needed to present fairly our results for the interim periods. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period. ​ Use of Estimates ​ In preparing the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, the Company’s management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates which are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the fair value of debt securities available for sale, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, goodwill, income taxes, and the determination of the ACL. ​ Change in Accounting Principle ​ Effective January 1, 2022, the Company elected to account for all newly originated loans held for sale at LOCOM. Prior to this change, the Company accounted for loans held for sale at fair value. In the first quarter of 2022, this change did not have a material impact on our results of operations. ​ Impact of Recently Adopted Accounting Standards ​ ASU 2021-10 “Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance” establishes disclosure requirements for transactions with a government that have been accounted for by analogizing to a grant or contribution accounting model. Disclosures required under this standard include 1) the types of transactions, 2) the accounting for those transactions, and 3) the effect of those transactions on the consolidated financial statements. This update is effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2022, and applies prospectively to all transactions within the scope of the amendments that are reflected in financial statements at the date of initial application and new transactions that are entered into after the date of initial application. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on First Busey’s financial position or results of operations. ​ ASU 2021-05 “Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments” amends the lessor’s classification of certain leases under ASC Topic 842. Under this updated guidance, leases that would otherwise be classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease must be classified by a lessor as an operating lease when the following conditions are met: 1) the contract includes variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate and 2) classification as a sales-type or direct financing lease would result in recognition of a selling loss at lease commencement. This guidance was effective for First Busey beginning January 1, 2022, and was applied on a prospective basis. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. ​ ASU 2021-04 “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options” clarifies how an issuer should account for modifications or exchanges of equity-classified written call options (i.e. a warrant to purchase the issuer’s common stock). This accounting standard requires the issuer to treat a modification of an equity-classified warrant that does not cause the warrant to become liability-classified as an exchange of the original warrant for a new warrant. This guidance applies whether the modification is structured as an amendment to the terms and conditions of the warrant or as termination of the original warrant and issuance of a new warrant. This guidance was effective for First Busey beginning January 1, 2022, and was applied on a prospective basis. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. ​ Recently Issued Accounting Standards ​ ASU 2022-02 “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” eliminates the TDR accounting model for creditors that have already adopted CECL. In lieu of the TDR accounting model, loan refinancing and restructuring guidance in ASC Subtopic 310-20 “Investments—Debt Securities” will apply to all loan modifications, including those made for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. This standard also enhances disclosure requirements related to certain loan modifications. Additionally, this standard introduces new requirements to disclose gross write-off information in the vintage disclosures of financing receivables by credit quality indicator and class of financing receivable by year of origination. This standard applies prospectively. For the transition method related to the recognition and measurement of TDRs, there is an option to apply a modified retrospective transition method, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. This standard is effective for First Busey beginning January 1, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. First Busey has not yet selected an adoption date and is currently evaluating the potential effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. ​ ASU 2022-01 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging—Portfolio Layer Method” replaces the current last-of-layer hedge accounting method with an expanded portfolio layer method that permits multiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio. The scope of the portfolio layer method is also expanded to include non-prepayable financial assets. This update also provides additional guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of hedge basis adjustments that are applicable to the portfolio layer method, and specifies how hedge basis adjustments should be considered when determining credit losses for the assets included in the closed portfolio. Amendments related to hedge basis adjustments which are included in this standard apply on a modified retrospective basis by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on the initial application date. Amendments related to disclosure which are included in this standard may be applied on a prospective basis from the initial application date, or on a retrospective basis to each prior period presented after the date of adoption of the amendments in ASU 2017-12 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” This standard is effective for First Busey beginning January 1, 2023, and may be early adopted. First Busey has not yet selected an adoption date and is currently evaluating the potential effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. ​ ASU 2021-08 “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers” requires measurement and recognition in accordance with ASC Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” for contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination. This update is effective for First Busey beginning January 1, 2023, and may be adopted early. This standard applies prospectively to all business combinations that occur on or after the date it is adopted and, if applicable, retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs on or after the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application. First Busey has not yet selected an adoption date and is currently evaluating the potential effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. ​ COVID-19 ​ Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, First Busey operated as an essential community resource, providing approximately $1.1 billion in payroll assistance for small businesses and select nonprofits through low-interest, 100% government-guaranteed loans as part of the PPP. First Busey had $32.5 million in PPP loans outstanding, with an amortized cost of $31.8 million, as of March 31, 2022. In comparison, First Busey had $76.9 million in PPP loans outstanding, with an amortized cost of $75.0 million, as of December 31, 2021. ​ Subsequent Events ​ The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through the date the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report were issued. There were no significant subsequent events for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, through the filing date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements.
