Note 1 — Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations. The accounting and reporting practices of First Business Financial Services, Inc. (the “Corporation”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Business Bank (“FBB”), First Business Bank – Milwaukee (“FBB – Milwaukee”) and Alterra Bank (“Alterra”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). FBB, FBB – Milwaukee and Alterra are sometimes referred to together as the “Banks.” FBB operates as a commercial banking institution in the Madison, Wisconsin market, consisting primarily of Dane County and the surrounding areas, with loan production offices in Northeast Wisconsin. FBB also offers trust and investment services through First Business Trust & Investments (“FBTI”), a division of FBB. FBB – Milwaukee operates as a commercial banking institution in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin market, consisting primarily of Waukesha County and the surrounding areas, with a loan production office in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Alterra operates as a commercial banking institution in the Kansas City market and the surrounding areas. The Banks provide a full range of financial services to businesses, business owners, executives, professionals and high net worth individuals. The Banks are subject to competition from other financial institutions and service providers and are also subject to state and federal regulations. FBB has the following wholly-owned subsidiaries: First Business Capital Corp. (“FBCC”), First Madison Investment Corp. (“FMIC”), First Business Equipment Finance, LLC (“FBEF”), Rimrock Road Investment Fund, LLC (“Rimrock Road”) and BOC Investment, LLC (“BOC”). FMIC is located in and was formed under the laws of the state of Nevada. FBB-Milwaukee has one subsidiary, FBB – Milwaukee Real Estate, LLC (“FBBMRE”).
Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. In accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, the Corporation’s ownership interest in FBFS Statutory Trust II (“Trust II”) has not been consolidated into the financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Management of the Corporation is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that could significantly change in the near-term include the value of foreclosed property, lease residuals, property under operating leases, securities, income taxes and the level of the allowance for loan and lease losses. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2015. Certain amounts in prior periods may have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of the issuance of the Consolidated Financial Statements. No significant subsequent events have occurred through this date requiring adjustment to the financial statements or disclosures.
The Corporation has not changed its significant accounting and reporting policies from those disclosed in the Corporation’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 except as described further below in this Note 1.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 666).” The ASU is a converged standard between the FASB and the IASB that provides a single comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers across transactions and industries. The primary objective of the ASU is revenue recognition that represents the transfer of 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 ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” This ASU requires a reporting entity to treat a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting. For all entities, ASU 2014-12 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2014-12 may be

adopted either prospectively for share-based payment awards granted or modified on or after the effective date, or retrospectively, using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach would apply to share-based payment awards outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements on adoption, and to all new or modified awards thereafter. While the Corporation does not have any performance-based awards outstanding as of the reporting date, the Corporation’s equity incentive plan does allow for such awards. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” This ASU describes how an entity should assess its ability to meet obligations and sets rules for how this information should be disclosed in the financial statements. The standard provides accounting guidance that will be used along with existing auditing standards. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis.” This ASU changes the way reporting enterprises evaluate whether (a) they should consolidate limited partnerships and similar entities, (b) fees paid to a decision maker or service provider are variable interests in a variable interest entity (VIE), and (c) variable interests in a VIE held by related parties of the reporting enterprise require the reporting enterprise to consolidate the VIE. It also eliminates the VIE consolidation model based on majority exposure to variability that applied to certain investment companies and similar entities. The new guidance excludes money market funds that are required to comply with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and similar entities from the U.S. GAAP consolidation requirements. The new consolidation guidance is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. At the effective date, all previous consolidation analysis that the guidance affects must be reconsidered. This includes the consolidation analysis for all VIEs and for all limited partnerships and similar entities that previously were consolidated by the general partner even though the entities were not VIEs. Early adoption is permitted, including early adoption in an interim period. If a reporting enterprise chooses to early adopt in an interim period, adjustments resulting from the revised consolidation analysis must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This ASU intends to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement.” This ASU provides explicit guidance to help companies evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement. The new guidance clarifies that if a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, the customer should account for the license consistent with its accounting for other software licenses. If the arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. An entity can elect to adopt the amendments either prospectively for all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date, or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent).” This ASU will eliminate the requirement to categorize investments in the fair value hierarchy if their fair value is measured at net asset value (NAV) per share (or its equivalent) using the practical expedient in the FASB’s fair value measurement guidance. Reporting entities are required to adopt the ASU retrospectively. The effective date for public business entities is fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard but does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 2 — Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share are computed using the two-class method. Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the applicable period, excluding outstanding participating securities. Participating securities include unvested restricted shares. Unvested restricted shares are considered participating securities because holders of these securities receive non-forfeitable dividends at the same rate as holders of the Corporation’s common stock. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares adjusted for reallocation of undistributed earnings of unvested restricted shares by the weighted average number of shares determined for the basic earnings per common share computation plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method.
For both the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no average anti-dilutive employee share-based awards.

Note 3 — Share-Based Compensation
The Corporation adopted the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) during the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation and provides for the grant of equity ownership opportunities through incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options (together, “Stock Options”), restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalent units, and any other type of award permitted by the Plan. As of June 30, 2015, 178,738 shares were available for future grants under the Plan. Shares covered by awards that expire, terminate or lapse will again be available for the grant of awards under the Plan. The Corporation may issue new shares and shares from treasury for shares delivered under the Plan.

Stock Options
The Corporation may grant Stock Options to senior executives and other employees under the Plan. Stock Options generally have an exercise price that is equal to the fair value of the common shares on the date the option is awarded. Stock Options granted under the Plan are subject to graded vesting, generally ranging from 4 years to 8 years, and have a contractual term of 10 years. For any new awards issued, compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period for the entire award on a straight-line basis. No Stock Options have been granted since the Corporation became a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and no Stock Options have been modified, repurchased or canceled since such time. For that reason, no stock-based compensation related to Stock Options was recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. As of June 30, 2015, all Stock Options granted and not previously forfeited have vested. The benefits of tax deductions as a result of disqualifying dispositions upon exercise of stock options are recognized as a financing cash flow.
Stock Option activity for the year ended December 31, 2014 and six months ended June 30, 2015 was as follows:

|  | Options |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)

Restricted Stock
Under the Plan, the Corporation may grant restricted shares to plan participants, subject to forfeiture upon the occurrence of certain events until the dates specified in the participant’s award agreement. While the restricted shares are subject to forfeiture, the participant may exercise full voting rights and will receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to the restricted shares. The restricted shares granted under the Plan are subject to graded vesting. Compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period of generally four years for the entire award on a straight-line basis. Upon vesting of restricted share awards, the benefit of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation expense is recognized as a financing cash flow activity.

(“GNMA”). Collateralized mortgage obligations - government-sponsored enterprises include securities guaranteed by the FHLMC and the FNMA. Asset-backed securities represent securities issued by the Student Loan Marketing Association (“SLMA”) which are 97% guaranteed by the U.S. government. Municipal obligations include securities issued by various municipalities located primarily within the State of Wisconsin and are primarily general obligation bonds that are tax-exempt in nature. There were no sales of securities available-for-sale for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, securities with a fair value of $28.0 million and $32.7 million, respectively, were pledged to secure interest rate swap contracts, outstanding Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances, if any, and additional FHLB availability.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities by contractual maturity at June 30, 2015 are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers have the right to call or prepay certain obligations without call or prepayment penalties.

The tables below show the Corporation’s gross unrealized losses and fair value of available-for-sale investments with unrealized losses, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual investments were in a continuous loss position at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Corporation held 66 and 59 available-for-sale securities that were in an unrealized loss position, respectively. Such securities have not experienced credit rating downgrades; however, they have primarily declined in value due to the current interest rate environment. At June 30, 2015, the Corporation held 17 available-for-sale securities that had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or greater.
The Corporation also has not specifically identified available-for-sale securities in a loss position that it intends to sell in the near term and does not believe that it will be required to sell any such securities. It is expected that the Corporation will recover the entire amortized cost basis of each security based upon an evaluation of the present value of the expected future cash flows. Accordingly, no other than temporary impairment was recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

There were four held-to-maturity securities that were in a continuous unrecognized loss position for twelve months or greater as of June 30, 2015. It is expected that the Corporation will recover the entire amortized cost basis of each held-to-maturity security based upon an evaluation of the present value of the expected future cash flows.

(1) | Includes residential real estate loans held for sale totaling $331,000 as of June 30, 2015 and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2014.

(2) | Includes guaranteed portion of SBA loans held for sale totaling $638,000 as of June 30, 2015.

(3) | Includes guaranteed portion of SBA loans held for sale totaling $305,000 as of June 30, 2015.

Loans transferred to third parties consist of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans as well as participation interests in other originated loans. The total principal amount of loans transferred during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $32.0 million and $6.6 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, $46.6 million and $11.7 million of loans were transferred to third parties, respectively. Each of the transfers of these financial assets met the qualifications for sale accounting, including the requirements specific to loan participations, and therefore all of the loans transferred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 have been derecognized in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. The Corporation has a continuing involvement in each of the agreements by way of relationship management and servicing the loans; however, there are no further obligations to the third-party participant required of the Corporation in the event of a borrower’s default, other than standard representations and warranties related to sold amounts. The guaranteed portion of SBA loans were transferred at their fair value and the related gain was recognized upon the transfer as non-interest income in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. No gain or loss was recognized on participation interests in other originated loans as they were transferred at or near the date of loan origination and the payments received for servicing the portion of the loans participated represents adequate compensation. The total amount of loan participations purchased on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $475,000 and $482,000, respectively.
The total amount of outstanding loans transferred to third parties as loan participations sold at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $140.0 million and $116.6 million, respectively, all of which was treated as a sale and derecognized under the applicable accounting guidance in effect at the time of the transfers of the financial assets. The Corporation’s continuing involvement with these loans is by way of partial ownership, relationship management and all servicing responsibilities. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the total amount of the Corporation’s partial ownership of loans on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheets was $98.4 million and $96.4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, $1.0 million loans in this participation sold portfolio were considered impaired as compared to $1.2 million as of December 31, 2014. The Corporation does not share in the participant’s portion of the charge-offs.

The Corporation sells residential real estate loans, servicing released, in the secondary market. The total principal amount of residential real estate loans sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $10.3 million and $19.5 million, respectively. No residential real estate loans were originated or sold during the three months ended June 30, 2014. Each of the transfers of these financial assets met the qualifications for sale accounting, and therefore all of the loans transferred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 have been derecognized in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. The Corporation has a continuing involvement in each of the transactions by way of relationship management; however, there are no further obligations of the Corporation in the event of a borrower’s default, other than standard representations and warranties related to the sold amount. The loans were transferred at their fair value and the related gain was recognized as non-interest income upon the transfer in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
ASC 310-30, Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, applies to purchased loans with evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination for which it is probable at acquisition that the Corporation will be unable to collect all contractually required payments are considered to be credit impaired. Purchased credit-impaired loans are initially recorded at fair value, which is estimated by discounting the cash flows expected to be collected at the acquisition date. Because the estimate of expected cash flows reflects an estimate of future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loans, an allowance for credit losses is not recorded at the acquisition date. The excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value, referred to as the accretable yield, is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan on a level-yield basis, contingent on the subsequent evaluation of future expected cash flows. The difference between the contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. A subsequent decrease in the estimate of cash flows expected to be received on purchased credit-impaired loans generally results in the recognition of an allowance for credit losses. Subsequent increases in cash flows result in reversal of any nonaccretable difference (or allowance for loan and lease losses to the extent any has been recorded) with a positive impact on interest income subsequently recognized. The measurement of cash flows involves assumptions and judgments for interest rates, prepayments, default rates, loss severity, and collateral values. All of these factors are inherently subjective and significant changes in the cash flow estimates over the life of the loan can result.
The following table reflects the contractually required payments receivable and fair value of the Corporation’s purchased credit impaired loans as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

Credit underwriting through a committee process is a key component of the Corporation’s operating philosophy. Business development officers have relatively low individual lending authority limits, and thus a significant portion of the Corporation’s new credit extensions require approval from a loan approval committee regardless of the type of loan or lease, asset quality grade of the credit, amount of the credit, or the related complexities of each proposal. In addition, the Corporation makes every effort to ensure that there is appropriate collateral at the time of origination to protect the Corporation’s interest in the related loan or lease.
Each credit is evaluated for proper risk rating upon origination, at the time of each subsequent renewal, upon receipt and evaluation of updated financial information from the Corporation’s borrowers, or as other circumstances dictate. The Corporation uses a nine grade risk rating system to monitor the ongoing credit quality of its loans and leases. The risk rating grades follow a consistent definition, and are then applied to specific loan types based on the nature of the loan. Each risk rating is subjective and, depending on the size and nature of the credit, subject to various levels of review and concurrence on the stated risk rating. In addition to its nine grade risk rating system, the Corporation groups loans into four loan and related risk categories which determine the level and nature of review by management.
Category I — Loans and leases in this category are performing in accordance with the terms of the contract and generally exhibit no immediate concerns regarding the security and viability of the underlying collateral, financial stability of the borrower, integrity or strength of the borrower’s management team or the industry in which the borrower operates. Loans and leases in this category are not subject to additional monitoring procedures above and beyond what is required at the origination or renewal of the loan or lease. The Corporation monitors Category I loans and leases through payment performance, continued maintenance of its personal relationships with such borrowers and continued review of such borrowers’ compliance with the terms of their respective agreements.
Category II — Loans and leases in this category are beginning to show signs of deterioration in one or more of the Corporation’s core underwriting criteria such as financial stability, management strength, industry trends and collateral values. Management will place credits in this category to allow for proactive monitoring and resolution with the borrower to possibly mitigate the area of concern and prevent further deterioration or risk of loss to the Corporation. Category II loans are considered performing but are monitored frequently by the assigned business development officer and by subcommittees of the Banks’ loan committees.

Table of Contents
Category III — Loans and leases in this category are identified by management as warranting special attention. However, the balance in this category is not intended to represent the amount of adversely classified assets held by the Banks. Category III loans and leases generally exhibit undesirable characteristics such as evidence of adverse financial trends and conditions, managerial problems, deteriorating economic conditions within the related industry, or evidence of adverse public filings and may exhibit collateral shortfall positions. Management continues to believe that it will collect all required principal and interest in accordance with the original terms of the contracts relating to the loans and leases in this category, and therefore Category III loans are considered performing with no specific reserves established for this category. Category III loans are monitored by management and loan committees of the Banks on a monthly basis and the Banks’ Boards of Directors at each of their regularly scheduled meetings.
Category IV — Loans and leases in this category are considered to be impaired. Impaired loans and leases have been placed on non-accrual as management has determined that it is unlikely that the Banks will receive the required principal and interest in accordance with the contractual terms of the agreement. Impaired loans are individually evaluated to assess the need for the establishment of specific reserves or charge-offs. When analyzing the adequacy of collateral, the Corporation obtains external appraisals at least annually for impaired loans and leases. External appraisals are obtained from the Corporation’s approved appraiser listing and are independently reviewed to monitor the quality of such appraisals. To the extent a collateral shortfall position is present, a specific reserve or charge-off will be recorded to reflect the magnitude of the impairment. Loans and leases in this category are monitored by management and loan committees of the Banks on a monthly basis and the Banks’ Boards of Directors at each of their regularly scheduled meetings.
Utilizing regulatory classification terminology, the Corporation identified $10.6 million and $27.1 million of loans and leases as Substandard as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. No loans were considered Special Mention, Doubtful or Loss as of either June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014. The population of Substandard loans are a subset of Category III and Category IV loans.

The difference between the loans and leases recorded investment and the unpaid principal balance of $3.8 million and $4.4 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 represents partial charge-offs resulting from confirmed losses due to the value of the collateral securing the loans and leases being below the carrying values of the loans and leases. Impaired loans and leases also included $1.9 million and $2.0 million of loans as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 that were performing troubled debt restructurings, and thus, while not on non-accrual, were reported as impaired, due to the concession in terms. When a loan is placed on non-accrual, interest accrual is discontinued and previously accrued but uncollected interest is deducted from interest income. Cash payments collected on non-accrual loans are first applied to principal. Foregone interest represents the interest that was contractually due on the note but not received or recorded. To the extent the amount of principal on a non-accrual note is fully collected and additional cash is received, the Corporation will recognize interest income.
To determine the level and composition of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Corporation breaks out the portfolio by segments and risk ratings. First, the Corporation evaluates loans and leases for potential impairment classification. The Corporation analyzes each loan and lease determined to be impaired on an individual basis to determine a specific reserve based upon the estimated value of the underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans, or alternatively, the present value of expected cash flows. The Corporation applies historical trends from established risk factors to each category of loans and leases that has not been individually evaluated for the purpose of establishing the general portion of the allowance.
A summary of the activity in the allowance for loan and lease losses by portfolio segment is as follows:

Note 8 — Fair Value Disclosures
The Corporation determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC Topic 820, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received in an orderly transaction that is not a forced liquidation or distressed sale at the measurement date and is based on exit prices. Fair value includes assumptions about risk such as nonperformance risk in liability fair values and is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.
Level 1 — Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Corporation has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included with Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; 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 assets or liabilities.
Level 3 — Level 3 inputs are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Corporation’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Impaired loans which are collateral dependent were written down to their net realizable value of $8.8 million and $8.6 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, through the establishment of specific reserves or by recording charge-offs when the carrying value exceeded the fair value. Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach, or cost approach were used to measure fair value and primarily included observable inputs for the individual impaired loans being evaluated such as current appraisals, recent sales of similar assets or other observable market data, and are reflected within Level 2 of the hierarchy. In cases where an input is unobservable, specifically discounts applied to appraisal values to adjust such values to current market conditions or to reflect net realizable value, the impaired loan balance is reflected within Level 3 of the hierarchy. The quantification of unobservable inputs for Level 3 impaired loan values range from 10% - 100%. The weighted average of those unobservable inputs as of the measurement date of June 30, 2015 was 44%. The majority of the impaired loans in the Level 3 category are considered collateral dependent loans.
Loan servicing rights represent the asset retained upon sale of the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans. When SBA loans are sold, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value with the income statement effect recorded in gains on sales of loans. The servicing rights are subsequently measured using the amortization method, which requires amortization into interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans.
The Corporation periodically reviews this portfolio for impairment and engages a third-party valuation firm to assess the fair value of the overall servicing rights portfolio. Loan servicing rights do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. While sales of loan servicing rights do occur, the precise terms and conditions typically are not readily available to allow for a “quoted price for similar assets” comparison. Accordingly, the Corporation utilizes an independent valuation from a third party which uses a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of its loan servicing rights. The valuation model incorporates prepayment assumptions to project loan servicing rights cash flows based on the current interest rate scenario, which is then discounted to estimate an expected fair value of the loan servicing rights. The valuation model considers portfolio characteristics of the underlying serviced portion of the SBA loans and uses the following significant unobservable inputs: (1) constant prepayment rate (“CPR”) assumptions based on the SBA sold pools historical CPR as quoted in Bloomberg and (2) a discount rate of 10%. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, loan servicing rights are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the estimated fair value of the Corporation’s loan servicing asset was $1.2 million and $943,000, respectively.

Foreclosed properties, upon initial recognition, are re-measured and reported at fair value through a charge-off to the allowance for loan and lease losses, if deemed necessary, based upon the fair value of the foreclosed property. The fair value of a foreclosed property, upon initial recognition, is estimated using a market approach or Level 2 inputs based on observable market data, typically a current appraisal, or Level 3 inputs based upon assumptions specific to the individual property or equipment. Level 3 inputs typically include unobservable inputs such as management-applied discounts used to further reduce values to a net realizable value and may be used in situations when observable inputs become stale. Foreclosed property fair value inputs may transition to Level 1 upon receipt of an accepted offer for the sale of the related foreclosed property.
As of June 30, 2015, there were no foreclosed properties supported by a Level 3 valuation. Subsequent impairments of foreclosed properties are recorded as a loss on foreclosed properties. Based upon an evaluation of value of certain of the Corporation’s foreclosed properties, impairment losses of $1,000 were recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The activity of the Corporation’s foreclosed properties is summarized as follows:

Disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate that value, is required whether or not recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments are excluded from the disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent the underlying value of the Corporation.
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported for cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits held by the Corporation, accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximate fair value because of their immediate availability and because they do not present unanticipated credit concerns. The carrying value of commercial paper, included in the cash and cash equivalents category, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity structure of the instrument. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Corporation held $8.5 million and $10.4 million, respectively, of commercial paper. The fair value of commercial paper is considered a Level 3 input due to the lack of available independent pricing sources. The carrying value of brokered certificates of deposit purchased is equivalent to the purchase price of the instruments as the Corporation has not elected a fair value option for these instruments. The fair value of brokered certificates of deposits purchased is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows using a discount rate reflective of rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Corporation held $6.7 million and $6.9 million, respectively, of brokered certificates of deposits.

Table of Contents
Securities: The fair value measurements of investment securities are determined by a third-party pricing service which considers observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the securities’ terms and conditions, among other things. The fair value measurements are subject to independent verification to another pricing source on a quarterly basis to review for reasonableness. Any significant differences in pricing are reviewed with appropriate members of management who have the relevant technical expertise to assess the results. The Corporation has determined that these valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. When the independent pricing service does not provide a fair value measurement for a particular security, the Corporation will estimate the fair value based on specific information about each security. Fair values derived in this manner are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Loans Held for Sale: Loans held for sale, which consist of residential real estate mortgage loans and the guaranteed portion of SBA loans, are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. The estimated fair value was based on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics.
Loans and Leases: The fair value estimation process for the loan portfolio uses an exit price concept and reflects discounts that the Corporation believes are consistent with liquidity discounts in the market place. Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. The fair value of performing and nonperforming loans is calculated by discounting scheduled and expected cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the portfolio of loans and then applying a discount factor based upon the embedded credit risk of the loan and the fair value of collateral securing nonperforming loans when the loan is collateral dependent. The estimate of maturity is based on the Banks’ historical experience with repayments for each loan classification, modified, as required, by an estimate of the effect of current economic and lending conditions. Significant unobservable inputs include, but are not limited to, discounts (investor yield premiums) applied to fair value calculations to further determine the exit price value of a portfolio of loans.
Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank Stock: The carrying amount of FHLB and FRB stock equals its fair value because the shares may be redeemed by the FHLB and the FRB at their carrying amount of $100 per share.
Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance: The carrying amount of the cash surrender value of life insurance approximates its fair value as the carrying value represents the current settlement amount.
Deposits: The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as demand deposits and money market accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value estimates do not include the intangible value that results from the funding provided by deposit liabilities compared to borrowing funds in the market.
Borrowed Funds: Market rates currently available to the Corporation and Banks for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt.
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risks: The fair value of the Corporation’s off-balance-sheet instruments is based on quoted market prices and fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the credit standing of the related counterparty. Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are generally not marketable. Furthermore, interest rates on any amounts drawn under such commitments would generally be established at market rates at the time of the draw. Fair value would principally derive from the present value of fees received for those products.
Interest Rate Swaps: The carrying amount and fair value of existing derivative financial instruments are based upon independent valuation models, which use widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative contract. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Corporation incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Corporation considers the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees.
Limitations: Fair value estimates are made at a discrete point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Corporation’s entire holding of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Corporation’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss

experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on existing balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and are not considered in the estimates.
Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments
The Corporation offers interest rate swap products directly to qualified commercial borrowers. The Corporation economically hedges client derivative transactions by entering into offsetting interest rate swap contracts executed with a third party. Derivative transactions executed as part of this program are not designated as accounting hedge relationships and are marked to market through earnings each period. The derivative contracts have mirror-image terms, which results in the positions’ changes in fair value primarily offsetting through earnings each period. The credit risk and risk of non-performance embedded in the fair value calculations is different between the dealer counterparties and the commercial borrowers, which may result in a difference in the changes in the fair value of the mirror-image swaps. The Corporation incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own non-performance risk and the counterparty’s risk in the fair value measurements. When evaluating the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effects of non-performance and credit risk, the Corporation considers the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements such as collateral postings, thresholds and guarantees.
At June 30, 2015, the aggregate amortizing notional value of interest rate swaps with various commercial borrowers was 27.3 million. The Corporation receives fixed rates and pays floating rates based upon LIBOR on the swaps with commercial borrowers. These interest rate swaps mature in March, 2016 through February, 2023. Commercial borrower swaps are completed independently with each borrower and are not subject to master netting arrangements. These commercial borrower swaps were reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a derivative asset of $519,000 and are included in accrued interest receivable and other assets. In the event of default on a commercial borrower interest rate swap by the counterparty, a right of offset exists to allow the commercial borrower to set off amounts due against the related commercial loan. As of June 30, 2015, no interest rate swaps were in default and therefore all values for the commercial borrower swaps are recorded on a gross basis within the Corporation’s financial position.
At June 30, 2015, the aggregate amortizing notional value of interest rate swaps with dealer counterparties was also 27.3 million. The Corporation pays fixed rates and receives floating rates based upon LIBOR on the swaps with dealer counterparties. These interest rate swaps mature in March, 2016 through February, 2023. Dealer counterparty swaps are subject to master netting agreements among the contracts within each of the Banks and are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a net derivative liability of $519,000, included in accrued interest payable and other liabilities as of June 30, 2015. The gross amount of dealer counterparty swaps, without regard to the enforceable master netting agreement, was a derivative liability of $519,000, included in accrued interest payable and other liabilities as of June 30, 2015. No right of offset exists with the dealer counterparty swaps.
The table below provides information about the location and fair value of the Corporation’s derivative instruments as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

No derivative instruments held by the Corporation for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were considered hedging instruments. All changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in other non-interest income. Given the mirror-image terms of the outstanding derivative portfolio, the change in fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 had an insignificant impact on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income.
Note 10 — Regulatory Capital
The Corporation and the Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by Federal, State of Wisconsin and State of Kansas banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions on the part of regulators, that if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Banks’ assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory practices. The Corporation’s and the Banks’ capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. The Corporation regularly reviews and updates when appropriate its Capital and Liquidity Action Plan (the “Capital Plan”), which is designed to help ensure appropriate capital adequacy, to plan for future capital needs and to ensure that the Corporation serves as a source of financial strength to the Banks. The Corporation’s and the Banks’ Boards of Directors and management teams adhere to the appropriate regulatory guidelines on decisions which affect their respective capital positions, including but not limited to, decisions relating to the payment of dividends and increasing indebtedness.
As a bank holding company, the Corporation’s ability to pay dividends is affected by the policies and enforcement powers of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve system (the “Federal Reserve”). Federal Reserve guidance urges companies to strongly consider eliminating, deferring or significantly reducing dividends if: (i) net income available to common shareholders for the past four quarters, net of dividends previously paid during that period, is not sufficient to fully fund the dividend; (ii) the prospective rate of earnings retention is not consistent with the bank holding company’s capital needs and overall current prospective financial condition; or (iii) the bank holding company will not meet, or is in danger of not meeting, its minimum regulatory capital ratios. Management intends, when appropriate under regulatory guidelines, to consult with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and provide it with information on the Corporation’s then-current and prospective earnings and capital position in advance of declaring any cash dividends. As a Wisconsin corporation, the Corporation is subject to the limitations of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law, which prohibit the Corporation from paying dividends if such payment would: (i) render the Corporation unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or (ii) result in the Corporation’s assets being less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount needed to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of any stockholders with preferential rights superior to those stockholders receiving the dividend.
The Banks are also subject to certain legal, regulatory and other restrictions on their ability to pay dividends to the Corporation. As a bank holding company, the payment of dividends by the Banks to the Corporation is one of the sources of funds the Corporation could use to pay dividends, if any, in the future and to make other payments. Future dividend decisions by the Banks and the Corporation will continue to be subject to compliance with various legal, regulatory and other restrictions as defined from time to time.
Qualitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation and the Banks to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total, common equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. These risk-based capital requirements presently address credit risk related to both recorded and off-balance-sheet commitments and obligations. Management believes, as of June 30, 2015, that the Corporation and the Banks met all applicable capital adequacy requirements.
In July 2013, the FRB and the FDIC approved the final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s (“BCBS”) capital guidelines for U.S. banks. These rules are applicable to all financial institutions that are subject to minimum capital requirements, including federal and state banks and savings and loan associations, as well as bank and savings and loan holding companies other than “small bank holding companies” (generally non-publicly traded bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $1 billion). Under the final rules, minimum requirements will increase for both the quantity and quality of capital held by the Corporation. The rules include a new common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets minimum ratio of 4.5%, raise the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0%, require a minimum ratio of Total Capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%, and require a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%. The rules also permit banking organizations with less than $15 billion to retain, through one-time election, the existing treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income, which would not affect regulatory capital. The Corporation elected to retain this treatment, which reduces the volatility of regulatory capital ratios. A new capital conservation buffer, comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital, is also established above the regulatory minimum capital requirements. This capital conservation buffer

will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increase each subsequent year by an additional 0.625% until reaching its final level of 2.5% on January 1, 2019.
The phase-in period for the final rules became effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with all of the final rules’ requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule, to be fully phased-in by January 1, 2019. As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation’s and the Bank’s capital levels remained characterized as well capitalized under the new rules.
The following table summarizes the Corporation’s and Banks’ capital ratios and the ratios required by their federal regulators at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively:

Overview
We are a registered bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Wisconsin and are engaged in the commercial banking business through our wholly-owned banking subsidiaries, FBB, FBB-Milwaukee and Alterra. All of our operations are conducted through the Banks and certain subsidiaries of FBB. We operate as a business bank focusing on delivering a full line of commercial banking products and services tailored to meet the specific needs of small- and medium-sized businesses, business owners, executives, professionals and high net worth individuals. Business lines include commercial lending, SBA lending, asset-based lending, equipment financing, factoring, residential mortgage lending, trust and investment services, treasury management services and a broad range of deposit products. We do not utilize a branch network to attract retail clients. Our operating philosophy is focused on local decision-making and local client service from each of our primary banking locations in Madison, Brookfield and Appleton, Wisconsin and Leawood, Kansas combined with the efficiency of centralized administrative functions, such as credit, information technology, marketing, finance and accounting and human resources. We have a unique niche business-banking model and we consistently operate within this model to provide value-added financial solutions to our clients through the high touch service of our experienced staff.
For the remainder of 2015, we plan to continue to diligently focus on maintaining asset quality while organically growing our loan and lease portfolio, increasing the number and volume of transaction accounts to support ongoing efforts to increase fee revenue associated with treasury management services, trust and investment services and SBA lending activity and investing in and utilizing technology to support these initiatives. While we grow, we will maintain our efficient operating model and we believe timely investments in technology and people are imperative as we continue to drive operational efficiency to keep pace with our strategic growth trajectory. We believe this strategy will continue to create opportunities to increase market share and capitalize on economic expansion in our core Wisconsin and Kansas City markets.

Results of Operations
Top Line Revenue
Top line revenue is comprised of net interest income and non-interest income. This measurement is also commonly referred to as operating revenue. Top line revenue increased 39.2% and 41.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the acquisition of Alterra, which was completed on November 1, 2014. The components of top line revenue were as follows:

Return on Average Assets and Return on Average Equity
ROAA for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased to 0.93% compared to 1.09% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. ROAA for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was 0.96% compared to 1.07% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decline in ROAA for both time periods presented was primarily due to the increase in total average assets exceeding the increase in net income primarily due to the acquisition of Alterra. Total average assets for the three months ended 2015 increased 29.9% year over year while net income increased 10.1%. Total average assets for the six months ended 2015 increased 31.1% year over year while net income increased 17.7%. ROAA is a critical metric used by us to measure the profitability of our organization and how efficiently our assets are deployed. It is a measurement that allows us to better benchmark our profitability to our peers without the need to consider different degrees of leverage which can ultimately influence return on equity measures.
ROAE for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was 10.73% compared to 12.29% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. ROAE for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was 11.35% compared to 12.15% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decline was primarily due to the growth of our average equity outpacing the improvement in our net income for the comparable periods which can be directly attributable to the acquisition of Alterra and the issuance of 360,081 shares of common stock as a portion of consideration paid in the transaction. We view return on average equity to be an important measure of profitability, and we continue to focus on improving our return to our shareholders by enhancing the overall profitability of our client relationships, controlling our expenses and minimizing our credit costs.
Efficiency Ratio
Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure representing non-interest expense excluding the effects of losses or gains on foreclosed properties and amortization of other intangible assets, if any, divided by top line revenue. In the judgment of our management, the efficiency ratio allows investors and analysts to better assess the Corporation’s operating expenses in relation to its top line revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with certain one-time and other discrete items. The information provided below reconciles the efficiency ratio to its most comparable GAAP measure.
Total non-interest expense, in particular professional fees, increased in line with expectations as we continue to search for a permanent Chief Financial Officer and a new Chief Accounting Officer as well as invest in solutions that will drive operational efficiency. Management expects to continue investing in products and technology to support strategic growth initiatives. Please refer to the Non-Interest Expense section below for further discussion on the primary drivers of the year-over-year increase in the efficiency ratio.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income levels depend on the amounts of and yields on interest-earning assets as compared to the amounts of and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is sensitive to changes in market rates of interest and the asset/liability management processes to prepare for and respond to such changes.
The following table provides information with respect to (1) the change in net interest income attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume) and (2) the change in net interest income attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period of 2014. The change in net interest income attributable to changes in rate and volume (changes in rate multiplied by changes in volume) has been allocated to the rate and volume changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each.

Comparison of Net Interest Income for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Net interest income increased $3.4 million, or 31.4%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to the addition of Alterra and the corresponding favorable volume variance on the loan and the lease portfolio, partially offset by an overall unfavorable variance on interest-bearing liabilities.
The yield on average earning assets for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was 4.46% compared to 4.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in the yield on average earning assets was attributable to several factors. The total loans and leases receivable yield was 5.06% for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to 5.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 primarily due to the addition of the Alterra loan portfolio at yields greater than that of the Wisconsin-based portfolio. This benefit was partially offset by fixed rate commercial real estate loans renewing at current market rates subject to competitive pricing pressures, an increase in average short-term investments in the form of excess cash held on deposit at the FRB and a 29 basis point decrease in the yield on average mortgage-related securities.
The overall weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 1.02% for the three months ended June 30, 2015, a decrease of 6 basis points from 1.08% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in the overall rate on the interest-bearing liabilities was primarily caused by a decrease in rate paid on our wholesale deposits as well as our in-market certificates of deposit. This decrease was partially offset by an unfavorable rate variance on the money market account deposit category and by the addition of other borrowings resulting from the $15.0 million of subordinated debt issued on August 26, 2014 at a rate that is significantly higher than our average cost of funds.
The weighted average rate paid on our interest-bearing deposits was 0.83% for the three months ended June 30, 2015, a decrease of 11 basis points from 0.94% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in the weighted average rate paid on our interest-bearing deposits was primarily driven by the replacement of maturing wholesale deposits with in-market deposit relationships at lower current rates. The continued low rate environment combined with the maturity structure of our wholesale deposits continues to provide us the opportunity to manage our liability structure in both term and rate to deliver an enhanced net interest margin. Further, the addition of Alterra in-market deposits combined with our continued success of attracting in-market deposits in our Wisconsin-based markets contributed to the overall decline in our cost of funds. Average in-market client deposits - comprised of all transaction accounts, money market accounts and non-wholesale deposits - increased 44.3% to $1.027 billion for the period ended June 30, 2015 from $712.2 million for the period ended June 30, 2014 primarily attributable to the acquisition of Alterra.
Net interest margin increased nine basis points to 3.61% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to 3.52% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net accretion/amortization on the Alterra purchase accounting adjustments of $542,000, partially offset by continued competitive pricing pressure on the loan and lease portfolio, drove a favorable impact of 12 basis points in net interest margin. Management expects the net accretion/amortization to remain volatile in future quarters due to the uncertain nature of loan prepayments. In addition, the changing mix of our deposit base reduced our overall cost of funds and positively affected our net interest margin by approximately ten basis points, offsetting the nine basis point decrease related to the declining yield on our investment portfolio. Other factors, primarily the issuance of $15.0 million of subordinated debt on August 26, 2014, negatively influenced the net interest margin by four basis points in the aggregate.
Comparison of Net Interest Income for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Net interest income increased $7.5 million, or 34.8%, during the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to the addition of Alterra and the corresponding favorable rate and volume variances on the loan and the lease portfolio, partially offset by an overall unfavorable variance on interest-bearing liabilities.
The yield on average earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was 4.54% compared to 4.43% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The reasons for the increase in the yield on average earning assets are consistent with explanations provided for the second quarter results discussed above.
The overall weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 1.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2015, a decrease of six basis points from 1.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The reasons for the decrease in the overall weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities are consistent with explanations provided for the second quarter results discussed above.
Net interest margin increased 15 basis points to 3.70% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to 3.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net accretion/amortization on the Alterra purchase accounting adjustments of $1.8 million,

partially offset by continued competitive pricing pressure on the loan and lease portfolio, drove a favorable impact of 19 basis points in net interest margin. In addition, the changing mix of our deposit base reduced our overall cost of funds and positively affected our net interest margin by approximately nine basis points, offsetting the nine basis point decrease related to the declining yield on our investment portfolio. Other factors, primarily the issuance of the subordinated debt, negatively influenced the net interest margin by four basis points in the aggregate.
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
We determine our provision for loan and lease losses based upon credit risk and other subjective factors pursuant to our allowance for loan and lease loss methodology, the magnitude of current and historical net charge-offs recorded and the amount of reserves established for impaired loans that present collateral shortfall positions.
We recorded provision expense of $520,000 and negative provision of $91,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Provision for the three months ended June 30, 2015 primarily reflects additions commensurate with growth, partially offset by a reduction of the loss factors applied in calculating the probable losses within the loan and lease portfolio for which a reserve should be established, primarily due to improving macro and microeconomic factors.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the factors influencing the provision for loan and lease losses were the following:

|  | For the Three Months Ended June 30, |  | For the Six Months Ended June 30,
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
|  | (In Thousands)
Components of the provision for loan and lease losses: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Net additions of specific reserves on impaired loans |  | $ | 243 |  |  | $ | 99 |  |  | $ | 252 |  |  | $ | 205 |
Net decrease in allowance for loan and lease loss reserve due to subjective factor changes |  | (693 | ) |  | (496 | ) |  | (693 | ) |  | (502 | )
Charge-offs in excess of specific reserves |  | 24 |  |  | — |  |  | 348 |  |  | — |
Recoveries |  | (70 | ) |  | (6 | ) |  | (75 | ) |  | (26 | )
Change in inherent risk of the loan and lease portfolio |  | 1,016 |  |  | 312 |  |  | 1,372 |  |  | 412 |
Total provision for loan and lease losses |  | $ | 520 |  |  | $ | (91 | ) |  | $ | 1,204 |  |  | $ | 89 |

The net additions of specific reserves on impaired loans represents the new specific reserves established on impaired loans for which, although collateral shortfalls are present, we believe we will recover our principal, offset by any release of previously established reserves that are no longer required. A decrease in allowance for loan and lease losses reserves due to subjective factor changes reflects management’s evaluation of the level of risk within the portfolio based upon the level and trend of certain criteria such as delinquencies, volume and average loan size, average risk rating, technical defaults, geographic concentrations, loans and leases on management attention watch lists, unemployment rates in our market areas, experience in credit granting functions, and changes in underwriting standards. As our asset quality metrics improve and the level and trend of the factors improve for a sustained period of time, the level of general reserve due to these factors may be reduced, causing an overall reduction in the level of the required reserve deemed to be appropriate by management. Conversely, increases in the level and trend of these factors may warrant an increase to our overall allowance for loan loss. Charge-offs in excess of specific reserves represent an additional provision for loan and lease losses required to maintain the allowance for loan and leases at a level deemed appropriate by management. This amount is net of the release of any specific reserve that may have already been provided. Charge-offs in excess of specific reserves can occur in situations where: (i) a loan has previously been partially written down to its estimated fair value and continues to decline, (ii) rapid deterioration of a credit requires an immediate partial or full charge-off, or (iii) the specific reserve was not adequate to cover the amount of the required charge-off. Change in the inherent risk of the portfolio can be influenced by portfolio growth or by migration in and out of an impaired loan classification where a specific evaluation of a particular credit may be required rather than the application of a general reserve ratio. Refer to Asset Quality for further information regarding the overall credit quality of our loan and lease portfolio.

Non-interest Income
Comparison of Non-Interest Income for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Non-interest income increased $1.8 million, or 75.0%, to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, from $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to increased fees earned for trust and investment services and the additional fee income related to the acquisition of Alterra, specifically gain on the sale of loans.
Trust and investment services fee income increased by $169,000, or 15.2%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. This increase was primarily driven by the amount of assets under management and administration as well as the mix of business at different fee structures and can be positively or negatively influenced by the timing and magnitude of volatility within the capital markets. At June 30, 2015, we had $800.6 million of trust assets under management compared to $773.2 million at December 31, 2014 and $703.6 million at June 30, 2014. Assets under administration were $197.3 million at June 30, 2015 compared to $186.5 million at December 31, 2014 and $186.0 million at June 30, 2014.
Services charges on deposits increased by $93,000, or 15.5%, to $693,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $600,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in services charges on deposits was primarily due to the acquisition of Alterra, and the related increase in transaction accounts, in addition to the increase in transaction accounts in our Wisconsin markets.
Loan fees increased by $119,000, or 31.3%, to $499,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $380,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in loan fees was primarily due to the acquisition of Alterra and the related increase in fee income on our SBA and residential mortgage business lines.
Gain on sale of loans for the three months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $1.1 million, an increase of $1.1 million from the same period in 2014, attributable to $222,000 from the sale of the residential real estate loans originated in our Kansas City market and $842,000 from the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans originated in our Kansas City and Wisconsin markets.
Other non-interest income increased by $294,000 to $353,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $59,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in other income was primarily due to gains recognized on the termination of leased assets and the unwinding of the reserve for unfunded commitments resulting from the fair value purchase accounting adjustments associated with the Alterra transaction. The remaining reserve for unfunded commitments was $99,000 as of June 30, 2015. Should the commitment be withdrawn for any reason or become fully funded prior to maturity, we will accelerate the remaining liability accordingly.
Comparison of Non-Interest Income for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Non-interest income increased $3.3 million, or 70.4%, to $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, from $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to increased fees earned for trust and investment services and the additional fee income related to the acquisition of Alterra, specifically gain on the sale of loans.
Trust and investment services fee income increased by $308,000, or 14.1%, to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Consistent with the second quarter results discussed above, trust and investment services fee income was primarily driven by the amount of assets under management as market values continue to increase. Assets under management can be positively or negatively influenced by the timing and magnitude of volatility within the equity markets, which will therefore influence the level of fee income recognized.
Services charges on deposits increased by $222,000, or 19.0%, to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in services charges on deposits was due to the acquisition of Alterra in addition to the increase in transaction accounts in our Wisconsin markets.
Loan fees increased by $232,000, or 30.2%, to $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $769,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The reasons for the increase in loan fees are consistent with explanations provided for the second quarter results discussed above.
Gain on sale of loans and leases for the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $1.7 million, an increase of $1.7 million from the same period in 2014. Consistent with the second quarter results discussed above, the increase in gain on sale of loans and leases was attributable to $370,000 from the sale of the residential real estate loans originated in our Kansas City

market and $1.3 million from the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans originated in our Kansas City and Wisconsin markets.
Other non-interest income increased by $760,000 to $909,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $149,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The reasons for the increase in other non-interest income are consistent with explanations provided for the second quarter results discussed above.
Non-Interest Expense
Comparison of Non-Interest Expense for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Non-interest expense increase d by $4.2 million, or 54.5%, to $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $7.7 million for the comparable period of 2014. The acquisition of Alterra was the primary driver for the increase in all non-interest expense categories. Compensation, professional fees and marketing expenses comprise the majority of the overall increase.
Compensation expense increased by $2.2 million, or 46.0%, to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. In addition to the increase related to Alterra, the overall increase reflects growth in compensation costs related to annual merit increases, employee benefit costs and incentive compensation accruals on a larger base of employees than in the comparative period of the prior year. Full time equivalent employees as of June 30, 2015 were 219, up 45.0% from 151 at June 30, 2014. Most of the increase was the result of the Alterra acquisition. Excluding Alterra, full time equivalent employees as of June 30, 2015 increased by 20 compared to June 30, 2014. As opportunities arise, we expect to continue investing in talent to support our strategic growth efforts, both in the form of additional business development officers and operational staff.
Professional fees expense increased by $620,000, or 69.3%, to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $895,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to the addition of Alterra and our ongoing strategy to invest in technology-based corporate initiatives as we continue to implement solutions that will drive operational efficiency. For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, professional fees specifically related to information technology (“IT”) projects increased $326,000. In addition, fees paid to other outside service providers increased $253,000 primarily due to temp-to-hire employees required to support our strategic IT initiatives. The largest remaining item in the variance was an increase in recruiting expenses related to our search for a permanent Chief Financial Officer and new Chief Accounting Officer, offset by a decrease in merger-related costs of $287,000.
Marketing expense increased by $337,000, or 92.6%, to $701,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $364,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The acquisition of Alterra was the primary driver for the increase.
Comparison of Non-Interest Expense for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Non-interest expense increased by $8.1 million, or 52.0%, to $23.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $15.6 million for the comparable period of 2014. The acquisition of Alterra was the primary driver for the increase in all non-interest expense categories. Compensation, professional fees and marketing expenses comprise the majority of the overall increase.
Compensation expense increased by $4.5 million, or 45.7%, to $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The reasons for the increase in compensation expense are consistent with explanations provided for the second quarter results discussed above.
Professional fees expense increased by $1.0 million, or 64.0%, to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Consistent with the second quarter results discussed above, professional fees specifically related to IT projects increased $437,000. In addition, fees paid to other outside service providers increased $287,000 primarily due to temp-to-hire employees required to support our strategic IT initiatives while fees paid to our external auditors increased by $147,000 primarily due to the additional services required to complete the acquisition of Alterra. The largest item in the remaining variance is an increase in recruiting expenses related to our search for a new Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, partially offset by a decrease in merger-related costs of $209,000.
Marketing expense increased by $632,000, or 88.9%, to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $711,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The acquisition of Alterra was the primary driver for the increase.

Generally, the provision for income taxes is determined by applying an estimated annual effective income tax rate to income before taxes and adjusting for discrete items. Typically, the rate is based on the most recent annualized forecast of pre-tax income, book versus tax differences and tax credits, if any. If we conclude that a reliable estimated annual effective tax rate cannot be determined, the actual effective tax rate for the year-to-date period may be used. We re-evaluate the income tax rates each quarter. Therefore, the current projected effective tax rate for the entire year may change.
Financial Condition
General
Our total assets increased by $54.2 million, or 3.3%, to $1.684 billion as of June 30, 2015 compared to $1.629 billion at December 31, 2014. The increase in total assets was primarily driven by growth in our loan and lease portfolio.
Short-term investments
Short-term investments decreased by $12.3 million, or 14.0%, to $76.0 million at June 30, 2015 from $88.4 million at December 31, 2014. Our short-term investments primarily consist of interest-bearing deposits held at the FRB. We value the safety and soundness provided by the FRB and therefore we incorporate short-term investments in our on-balance-sheet liquidity program. As of June 30, 2015, our total investment in commercial paper, which is also considered a short-term investment, was $8.5 million as compared to $10.4 million at December 31, 2014. We approach our decisions to purchase commercial paper with similar rigor and underwriting standards applied to our loan and lease portfolio. The original maturities of the commercial paper are usually sixty days or less and provide an attractive yield in comparison to other short-term alternatives. These investments also assist us in maintaining a shorter duration of our overall investment portfolio which we believe is necessary to take advantage of an anticipated rising-rate environment. In general, the level of our short-term investments will be influenced by the timing of deposit gathering, scheduled maturities of wholesale deposits, funding of loan growth when opportunities are presented and the level of our available-for-sale securities portfolio. Please refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources for further discussion.
Securities
Total securities, including available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, decreased by $491,000 to $185.8 million at June 30, 2015 compared to $186.3 million at December 31, 2014. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we recognized unrealized holding losses of $145,000 before income taxes through other comprehensive income. As of June 30, 2015, our overall securities portfolio, including available-for-sale securities and held-to-maturity securities, had an estimated weighted average maturity of 3.09 years. Generally, our investment philosophy remains unchanged from our statements made in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We use a third-party pricing service as our primary source of market prices for our securities portfolio. On a quarterly basis, we validate the reasonableness of prices received from this source through independent verification of a representative sample of the portfolio, data integrity validation through comparison of current price to prior period prices, and an expectation-based analysis of movement in prices based upon the changes in the related yield curves and other market factors. No securities within our portfolio were deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2015. There were no sales of securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.
Loans and Leases Receivable
Loans and leases receivable, net of allowance for loan and lease losses, increased by $68.9 million, or 5.4%, to $1.335 billion at June 30, 2015 from $1.266 billion at December 31, 2014 with the majority of the growth distributed relatively evenly between our commercial and industrial and commercial real estate portfolios. We continue to have a concentration in commercial real estate, as commercial real estate loans represent approximately 62% of our total loans as of June 30, 2015. Over the past five years there has been a generally declining trend in this concentration level as we continue to direct our efforts toward growing our commercial and industrial portfolio. The types of loans and leases we originate and the various risks associated with these originations remain consistent with information previously outlined in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Our commercial and industrial portfolio increased $38.2 million, or 9.2%, to $454.9 million at June 30, 2015 from $416.7 million at December 31, 2014 while our commercial real estate portfolio increased by $32.3 million, or 4.0%, to $844.1 million at June 30, 2015 from $811.8 million at December 31, 2014. We believe loan growth relative to prior years reflects improvement in economic activity within our markets, in addition to the ability of our business development teams to capture market share from the competition. While we continue to experience significant competition as banks operating in our primary geographic area attempt to deploy excess liquidity, we remain committed to our underwriting standards. We expect our new loan and lease activity to be more than adequate to replace normal amortization and to continue to grow in future quarters.
Non-performing loans increased $5.4 million, or 55.2%, to $15.2 million, compared to $9.8 million at December 31, 2014, primarily due to one $6.2 million relationship identified as impaired in the second quarter. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, we granted a concession to the client and considered the loans to be troubled debt restructurings. Management believes this increase is not systemic in nature or indicative of a trend of increasing non-performing loans. Further, management expects the outcome of this relationship to be consistent with results experienced historically due to an aggressive and disciplined credit resolution process. As a result, the Company's non-performing loans as a percentage of total gross loans and leases measured 1.12% and 0.76% at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Likewise, the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets increased to 1.01% at June 30, 2015, compared to 0.70% at December 31, 2014. We do not expect any material changes in non-accrual loans as a percentage of gross loans and leases; however, we may experience some volatility from time to time. Please refer to Asset Quality for additional information.
Deposits
As of June 30, 2015, deposits increased by $32.8 million to $1.471 billion from $1.438 billion at December 31, 2014. The increase in deposits was primarily due to an increase in the level of in-market deposits, specifically non-interest-bearing transaction accounts, which increased by $16.7 million to $221.1 million at June 30, 2015 from $204.3 million at December 31, 2014, and partially due to a $12.5 million increase in the level of money market accounts to $588.2 million at June 30, 2015 from $575.8 million at December 31, 2014. Deposit ending balances associated with in-market relationships will fluctuate based upon maturity of time deposits, client demands for the use of their cash, our ability to service and maintain client relationships and new client deposit relationships.
Our strategic efforts continue to be focused on adding in-market relationships and related transaction deposit accounts. We measure the success of deposit gathering efforts based on our ability to maintain the average balances of our in-market deposit accounts consistent with our current period mix and recent trends. Our Banks’ in-market deposits, consisting of all transaction accounts, money market accounts and non-wholesale deposits, are obtained primarily from the South Central, Northeastern and Southeastern regions of Wisconsin and the greater Kansas City area. Of our total year-to-date average deposits, approximately $1.043 billion, or 71.0%, were considered in-market deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This compares to in-market deposits of $724.0 million, or 64.1%, for the year-to-date average at June 30, 2014.
The Corporation’s operating range of wholesale deposits to total deposits is 30%-40%. As of June 30, 2015, the ratio of wholesale deposits to total deposits was 30.2%. We will continue to use wholesale deposits in specific maturity periods needed, typically three to five years, to effectively mitigate interest rate risk measured through our asset/liability management process and to support asset growth initiatives while taking into consideration our operating goals and desired level of

wholesale deposits. Refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources for further information regarding our use and monitoring of wholesale deposits.
FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings
As of June 30, 2015, FHLB advances and other borrowings increased by $13.4 million, or 39.4%, to $47.4 million from $34.0 million at December 31, 2014. The primary reason for the increase in borrowings was due to a two-week advance of $13.0 million from the FHLB with a maturity date of July 13, 2015 at a rate of 0.16%. We routinely utilize short-term advances from the FHLB in order to provide the appropriate time to accumulate wholesale deposits in an orderly manner.

A summary of our non-accrual loan and lease activity from December 31, 2014 through June 30, 2015 is as follows:

(1) | Balance includes $6.2 million considered performing impaired loans with interest income recognized on a cash basis as of June 30, 2015. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Corporation granted a concession to the client and considered the loans to be troubled debt restructurings.

We use a wide variety of available metrics to assess the overall asset quality of the portfolio and no one metric is used independently to make a final conclusion as to the asset quality of the portfolio. As of June 30, 2015, non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets increased to 1.01% from 0.70% at December 31, 2014. This is primarily due to one $6.2 million relationship identified as impaired in the second quarter. We believe this increase is not systemic in nature or indicative of a trend of increasing non-performing loans. We expect the outcome of this relationship to be consistent with results experienced historically due to an aggressive and disciplined credit resolution process. This increase was partially offset by cash collections on previously identified impaired loans and a partial charge-off on one commercial loan.
We also monitor early stage delinquencies to assist in the identification of potential future problems. As of June 30, 2015, the payment performance did not point to any new areas of concern, as approximately 99.7% of the loan and lease portfolio was in a current payment status. This metric can change rapidly however, if factors unknown to us change. We also monitor our asset quality through our established credit quality indicator categories. We are generally seeing positive trends with improving percentages of loans and leases in our higher quality loan categories which is indicative of overall credit quality improvement. While overall asset quality has improved, we will continue to actively monitor the credit quality of our loan and lease portfolios. Through this monitoring effort, we may identify additional loans and leases for which the borrowers or lessees are having difficulties making the required principal and interest payments based upon factors including, but not limited to, the inability to sell the underlying collateral, inadequate cash flow from the operations of the underlying businesses, liquidation events, or bankruptcy filings. We generally work proactively with our impaired loan borrowers to find meaningful solutions to difficult situations that are in the best interests of the Banks. Given our current low level of non-accrual loans, any meaningful improvement in reducing this balance further will likely be at a slower pace than what has been accomplished over the last several years. We expect to demonstrate an overall declining trend of non-accrual loan balances; however, we may experience some volatility in this trend from time to time.

Allowance for loan and lease losses.
The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of gross loans and leases was 1.12% as of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we recorded net charge-offs on impaired loans and leases of approximately $334,000, comprised of $408,000 of charge-offs and $74,000 of recoveries. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded net recoveries on impaired loans and leases of approximately $25,000, comprised of no charge-offs and $25,000 of recoveries.
While charge-offs have been relatively low in recent periods, we will continue to experience some level of periodic charge-offs in the future as exit strategies are considered and executed. Loans and leases with previously established specific reserves may ultimately result in a charge-off under a variety of scenarios. There have been no substantive changes to our methodology for estimating the appropriate level of allowance for loan and lease loss reserves from what was previously outlined in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based upon this methodology, which includes actively monitoring the asset quality and inherent risks within the loan and lease portfolio, management concluded that an allowance for loan and lease losses of $15.2 million, or 1.12% of total loans and leases, was appropriate as of June 30, 2015. Given ongoing complexities with current workout situations and the measured pace of improvement in economic conditions, further charge-offs and increased provisions for loan and lease losses may be recorded if additional facts and circumstances lead us to a different conclusion. In addition, various federal and state regulatory agencies review appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses. These agencies could require certain loan and lease balances to be classified differently or charged off if their credit evaluations differ from those of management, based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.
53

Table of Contents
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our allowance for loan and lease losses to total non-accrual loans and leases was 100.01% and 146.33%, respectively. Impaired loans and leases exhibit weaknesses that inhibit repayment in compliance with the original terms of the note or lease. However, the measurement of impairment on loans and leases may not always result in a specific reserve included in the allowance for loan and lease losses. As part of the underwriting process, as well as our ongoing monitoring efforts, we endeavor to have appropriate collateral to protect our interest in the related loan or lease. As a result of this practice, a significant portion of our outstanding balance of non-performing loans or leases either does not require additional specific reserves or requires only a minimal amount of required specific reserve, as we believe the loans and leases are adequately collateralized as of the measurement period. In addition, management is proactive in recording charge-offs to bring loans to their net realizable value in situations where it is determined with certainty that we will not recover the entire amount of our principal. This practice may lead to a lower allowance for loan and lease loss to non-accrual loans and leases ratio as compared to our peers or industry expectations. In general, as asset quality remains strong, our allowance for loan and lease loss is measured more through general characteristics, including historical loss experience of our portfolio rather than through specific identification and we therefore expect to see this ratio to rise. As was the case with the $6.2 million relationship identified in the second quarter of 2015, if we identify additional impaired loans which are adequately collateralized and therefore require no specific or general reserve, this ratio could fall. Given our business practices and evaluation of our existing loan and lease portfolio, we believe this coverage ratio is appropriate for the probable losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio as of June 30, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Corporation expects to meet its liquidity needs through existing cash on hand, established cash flow sources, its third party senior line of credit and dividends received from the Banks. While the Banks are subject to certain regulatory limitations regarding their ability to pay dividends to the Corporation, we do not believe that the Corporation will be adversely affected by these dividend limitations. The Corporation’s principal liquidity requirements at June 30, 2015 were the interest payments due on subordinated and junior subordinated notes. In April 2015, FBB declared a dividend in the amount of $2.0 million bringing year-to-date dividend declarations to $4.0 million through June 30, 2015. During the year ended December 31, 2014, FBB declared and paid dividends totaling $8.0 million. The capital ratios of the Corporation and its subsidiaries continue to meet all applicable regulatory capital adequacy requirements. The Corporation’s and the Banks’ respective Boards of Directors and management teams adhere to the appropriate regulatory guidelines on decisions which affect their capital positions, including but not limited to, decisions relating to the payment of dividends and increasing indebtedness.
The Banks maintain liquidity by obtaining funds from several sources. The Banks’ primary sources of funds are principal and interest repayments on loans receivable and mortgage-related securities, deposits and other borrowings, such as federal funds and FHLB advances. The scheduled payments of loans and mortgage-related securities are generally a predictable source of funds. Deposit flows and loan prepayments, however, are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
We view on-balance-sheet liquidity as a critical element to maintaining adequate liquidity to meet our cash and collateral obligations. We define our on-balance-sheet liquidity as the total of our short-term investments, our unencumbered securities fair value and our unencumbered pledged loans. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our immediate on-balance-sheet liquidity was $299.5 million and $290.8 million, respectively. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Banks had $60.7 million and $70.5 million on deposit with the FRB, respectively. Any excess funds not used for loan funding or satisfying other cash obligations were maintained as part of our on-balance-sheet liquidity in our interest-bearing accounts with the FRB, as we value the safety and soundness provided by the FRB. We plan to utilize excess liquidity to fund loan and lease portfolio growth, pay down maturing debt, allow run-off of maturing brokered certificates of deposit, or invest in securities to maintain adequate liquidity at an improved margin.
We had $444.5 million of outstanding wholesale deposits at June 30, 2015, compared to $427.3 million of wholesale deposits as of December 31, 2014, which represented 30.2% and 29.7%, respectively, of the ending balance of total deposits. While we are committed to our continued efforts to raise in-market deposits and maintain our overall mix of wholesale deposits and in-market deposits, wholesale deposits continue to be an efficient source of funding for the Banks and allow them to gather funds across a larger geographic base at price levels and maturities that are more attractive than local time deposits when required to raise a similar level of in-market deposits within a short time period. Access to such deposits allows us the flexibility to refrain from pursuing single-service deposit relationships in markets that have experienced unfavorable pricing levels. In addition, the administrative costs associated with wholesale deposits are considerably lower than those that would be incurred to administer a similar level of local deposits with a similar maturity structure. During the time frames necessary to accumulate wholesale deposits in an orderly manner, we will use FHLB short-term advances to meet our temporary funding needs. The FHLB short-term advances will typically have terms of one week to one month to cover the overall expected funding demands.
Our in-market relationships remain stable; however, deposit balances associated with those relationships will fluctuate. We expect to establish new client relationships and continue marketing efforts aimed at increasing the balances in existing clients’ deposit accounts. Nonetheless, we will continue to use wholesale deposits in specific maturity periods, typically three to five years, needed to effectively mitigate the interest rate risk measured through our asset/liability management process or in shorter time periods if in-market deposit balances decline. In order to provide for ongoing liquidity and funding, all of our wholesale deposits are certificates of deposit which do not allow for withdrawal at the option of the depositor before the stated maturity with the exception of deposits accumulated through the internet listing service which have the same early withdrawal privileges and fees as do our other in-market deposits. The Banks limit the percentage of wholesale deposits to total deposits in accordance with liquidity policies approved by their respective Boards of Directors. The Corporation’s overall operating range of wholesale deposits to total deposits is 30%-40%. The Banks were in compliance with their respective policy limits as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
The Banks were able to access the wholesale deposit market as needed at rates and terms comparable to market standards during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. In the event there is a disruption in the availability of wholesale deposits at maturity, the Banks have managed the maturity structure, in compliance with our approved liquidity policy, so at least one year of maturities could be funded through on-balance-sheet liquidity. These potential funding sources include deposits with the FRB and borrowings from the FHLB or Federal Reserve Discount Window utilizing currently unencumbered securities and acceptable loans as collateral. As of June 30, 2015, the available liquidity was in excess of the stated policy

Table of Contents
minimum. As on-balance-sheet liquidity is utilized to fund growth, asset quality remains stable and the ratio of in-market deposits to total deposits remains within an acceptable range, management may consider reducing the number of months of maturity coverage slightly while remaining confident in its ability to manage the maturities of wholesale deposits in the event of a disruption in the wholesale market. We believe the Banks will also have access to the unused federal funds lines, cash flows from borrower repayments and cash flows from security maturities. The Banks also have the ability to raise local market deposits by offering attractive rates to generate the level required to fulfill their liquidity needs.
The Banks are required by federal regulation to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations. We believe the Banks have sufficient liquidity to match the balance of net withdrawable deposits and short-term borrowings in light of present economic conditions and deposit flows.
During the six months ended June 30, 2015, operating activities resulted in a net cash inflow of $10.8 million. Operating cash flows included net income of $8.1 million. Net cash used in investing activities for the the six months ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $69.8 million which consisted of cash outflows to fund net loan growth and reinvestment of cash flows within purchases of additional securities available-for-sale offset by cash inflows from maturities, redemptions and paydowns of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $44.7 million primarily from net increases in deposits and the use of FHLB short-term advances to meet our temporary funding needs. Please refer to the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for further details regarding significant sources of cash flow for the Corporation.
Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2015, there were no significant changes to our contractual obligations and off-balance-sheet arrangements disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. We continue to believe that we have adequate capital and liquidity available from various sources to fund projected contractual obligations and commitments.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest rate risk, or market risk, arises from exposure of our financial position to changes in interest rates. It is our strategy to reduce the impact of interest rate risk on net interest margin and net interest income by maintaining a favorable match between the maturities and repricing dates of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. This strategy is monitored by the Banks’ respective Asset/Liability Management Committees, in accordance with policies approved by the Banks’ respective Boards of Directors. These committees meet regularly to review the sensitivity of each Bank’s assets and liabilities to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs and sources, and pricing and funding strategies.
We use two techniques to measure interest rate risk. The first is simulation of earnings. In this measurement technique the balance sheet is modeled as an ongoing entity whereby future growth, pricing, and funding assumptions are implemented. These assumptions are modeled under different rate scenarios that include a simultaneous, instant and sustained change in interest rates. The second measurement technique used is static gap analysis. Gap analysis involves measurement of the difference in asset and liability repricing on a cumulative basis within a specified time frame. In general, a positive gap indicates that more interest-earning assets than interest-bearing liabilities reprice/mature in a time frame and a negative gap indicates the opposite. In addition to the gap position, other determinants of net interest income are the shape of the yield curve, general rate levels and the corresponding effect of contractual interest rate floors, reinvestment spreads, balance sheet growth and mix and interest rate spreads. We manage the structure of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities by adjusting their mix, yield, maturity and/or repricing characteristics based on market conditions. Currently, we do not employ any derivatives to assist in managing our interest rate risk exposure; however, management has the authorization, as permitted within applicable approved policies, and ability to utilize such instruments should they be appropriate to manage interest rate exposure.
The process of asset and liability management requires management to make a number of assumptions as to when an asset or liability will reprice or mature. Management believes that its assumptions approximate actual experience and considers them reasonable, although the actual amortization and repayment of assets and liabilities may vary substantially. Our economic sensitivity to changes in interest rates at June 30, 2015 has not changed materially since December 31, 2014.
