FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). In addition, First US Bancshares, Inc. (“Bancshares” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), through its senior management, from time to time makes forward-looking statements concerning its expected future operations, performance and other developments. The words “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “continues” and similar expressions are indicative of forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the Company’s best judgment based on current information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Certain factors that could affect the accuracy of such forward-looking statements and cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements are identified in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and forward-looking statements contained herein or in other public statements of the Company or its senior management should be considered in light of those factors. Such factors may include adverse developments in the financial services industry; the effects of any government shutdown; loan losses may be greater than anticipated; our ability to ensure that sufficient cash flow and liquid assets are available to satisfy current and future financial obligations; the impact of national and local market conditions on the Company’s business and operations; strong competition in the banking industry; the impact of changes in interest rates and monetary policy on the Company’s performance and financial condition; the pending discontinuation of LIBOR as an interest rate benchmark; the impact of technological changes in the banking and financial service industries and potential information system failures; cybersecurity and data privacy threats; the costs of complying with extensive governmental regulation; the risk that internal controls and procedures might fail or be circumvented; the impact of changing tax laws on the Company’s financial results; the potential impact of climate change and related legislative and regulatory initiatives; the possibility that acquisitions may not produce anticipated results and result in unforeseen integration difficulties; the rate of growth (or lack thereof) in the economy generally and in the Company’s service areas; the volatility of our stock price and our dependence on the soundness of other financial institutions; and other risk factors described from time to time in the Company’s public filings, including, but not limited to, the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Relative to the Company’s dividend policy, the payment of cash dividends is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be determined in light of then-current conditions, including the Company’s earnings, leverage, operations, financial conditions, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. In the future, the Board of Directors may change the Company’s dividend policy, including the frequency or amount of any dividend, in light of then-existing conditions.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONS OLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.
GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First US Bancshares, Inc. (“Bancshares”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). Bancshares is the parent holding company of First US Bank (the “Bank”). The Company and the Bank are both headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama. The Bank operates a finance company subsidiary, Acceptance Loan Company, Inc. (“ALC”). Management has determined that the Bank and ALC comprise Bancshares’ two reportable operating segments. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. During the third quarter of 2021, ALC ceased new business development and permanently closed its 20 branch lending locations in Alabama and Mississippi to the public. ALC continues to service its remaining portfolio of loans from its headquarters in Mobile, Alabama.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature, except for the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as discussed below. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. While certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), management believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the "Company's 2022 Form 10-K").

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the prior period consolidated financial statements and the notes to the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2023 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or net cash flow.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Certain significant accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K.

Adoption of ASC 326

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as subsequently updated for certain clarifications, targeted relief and codification improvements. ASC 326 replaces the previous "incurred loss" model for measuring credit losses, which required allowances for current known and inherent losses within the loan portfolio, with an "expected loss" model. The newly adopted current expected credit loss ("CECL") model requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain off-balance-sheet credit exposures based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. ASC 326 also requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization's portfolio. In addition, ASC 326 includes certain changes to the accounting for available-for-sale securities including the requirement to present credit losses as an allowance rather than as a direct write-down.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. Upon adoption, the Company recognized an increase in the allowance for credit losses (including both loans and unfunded lending commitments) of $2.4 million, which included an after-tax cumulative effect decrease to retained earnings totaling $1.8 million. Operating results for periods after January 1, 2023 are presented in accordance with ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable standards and the accounting policies described in Note 2 of the Company's 2022 Form 10-K. In connection with the adoption of ASC 326, the Company revised certain accounting policies and implemented certain accounting policy elections. The revised accounting policies are described below.

Loans and Leases Held for Investment

Loans and leases held for investment (“loans”) represent financial instruments that the Company has the intent and the ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff. Loans are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses. Amortized cost is the principal balance outstanding, net of purchase premiums and discounts, fair value hedge accounting adjustments, as well as deferred loan fees and costs. Accrued interest receivable on loans and leases is reported separately on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments.

At the time a loan is 90 days delinquent, it is placed on nonaccrual status unless it is well-secured and in process of collection. Interest income is discontinued on all loans on nonaccrual status. Past-due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are moved to nonaccrual status, or charged off at an earlier date, if collection of principal and interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not received on loans on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery methods, until qualifying for return to accrual. Under the cash-basis method, interest income is recorded when the payment is received in cash. Under the cost-recovery method, interest income is not recognized until the loan balance is reduced to zero. Loans are returned to accrual status when all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Allowance for Credit Losses – Loans and Leases

The allowance for credit losses is a contra-asset valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans are charged off against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged off and expected to be charged off. The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases is adjusted through the provision for (recovery of) credit losses.

Management estimates the allowance balance by using relevant available information from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in loan-specific risk characteristics such as changes in economic and business conditions, underwriting standards, portfolio mix, and delinquency level. Considerations related to environmental conditions include reasonable and supportable current and forecasted data related to economic factors such as inflation, unemployment levels, and interest rates.

The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not included in the collective evaluation. When management determines that foreclosure is probable or when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty as of the reporting date and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for estimated selling costs as appropriate.

Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modifications unless renewal options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company, or management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a loan modification will be made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty.

Additional information related to the factors considered in evaluating credit losses on loans and leases is included in Note 4.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The following categories of off-balance sheet credit exposures have been identified: unfunded loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees (collectively, “unfunded lending commitments”). The allowance for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments is adjusted through the provision for (recovery of) credit losses. The estimate may include consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded, as well as reasonable practical expedients or industry practices to assist in the evaluation of estimated funding amounts.

Additional information related to the factors considered in evaluating credit losses on unfunded lending commitments is included in Note 4.

Allowance for Credit Losses – Investment Securities Held-to-Maturity

Expected credit losses on held-to-maturity debt securities are measured on a collective basis by major security type. Accrued interest receivable on held-to-maturity securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses on investment securities held-to-maturity is adjusted through the provision for (recovery of) credit losses.

Additional information related to the factors considered in evaluating credit losses in the held-to-maturity investment portfolio is included in Note 3.

Allowance for Credit Losses – Investment Securities Available-for-Sale

For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For debt securities available-for-sale that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes in the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in the provision for (recovery of) credit losses. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of an available-for-sale security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Additional information related to the factors considered in evaluating credit losses in the available-for-sale investment portfolio is included in Note 3.

Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding ("basic shares"). Included in basic shares are stock equivalent shares that have been accrued as of the balance sheet date as deferred compensation for members of Bancshares’ Board of Directors under the Non-Employee Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan (as defined below and discussed further in Note 9). Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, adjusted for the effect of potentially dilutive stock awards outstanding during the period ("dilutive shares"). The dilutive shares consist of unexercised nonqualified stock option grants issued to employees and members of Bancshares’ Board of Directors pursuant to the Company's Incentive Plan (as defined below and discussed further in Note 10).

The following table reflects the weighted average shares used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share for the periods presented.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income consists of net income, as well as unrealized holding gains and losses that arise during the period associated with the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio and the effective portion of cash flow hedge derivatives. In the calculation of comprehensive income, reclassification adjustments are made for gains or losses realized in the statement of operations associated with the sale of available-for-sale securities or settlement of derivative contracts.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

Reference Rate Reform

ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." These ASUs provide temporary relief, in the form of optional expedients and exceptions, for applying GAAP to modifications of contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate (e.g. LIBOR) reforms. Historically, the Company has utilized LIBOR, among other indexes, as a reference rate for underwriting certain variable rate loans and interest rate hedging instruments. Since the issuance of this guidance, cessation of U.S. dollar LIBOR was extended to June 30, 2023. Accordingly, in December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which deferred the sunset date of ASC Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The amendments in this update provide optional expedients designed to provide relief from accounting analysis and the impacts that may otherwise be required for modifications to agreements necessitated by reference rate reform. The optional expedients provided by the update include guidance related to modifications of contracts within the scope of ASC Topics 310, Receivables, and 470, Debt, that indicates the modifications should be accounted for by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s contracts referencing LIBOR were limited to certain variable-rate loan agreements. Management has implemented a process to convert the agreements to another reference rate at the next applicable reset date. Due to the prospective nature of the implementation of the revised guidance, the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Portfolio Layer Hedging Method

ASU 2022-01, "Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method - Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)." In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01. The amendments in this standard expand the current last-of-layer method of hedge accounting to allow multiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio. The Company adopted ASU 2022-01 on January 1, 2023. Due to the prospective nature of the implementation of this revised guidance, the adoption of this standard update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Intangibles and Goodwill

ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” Issued in January 2017, ASU 2017-04 simplifies the manner in which an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity, prior to the amendments in ASU 2017-04, had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities, including unrecognized assets and liabilities, in accordance with the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. However, under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should (1) perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and (2) recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, with the understanding that the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, ASU 2017-04 removes the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails such qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. As originally issued, ASU 2017-04 was effective prospectively for annual, or any interim, goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. On October 16, 2019, the FASB approved a delay in the implementation of ASU 2017-04 by three years for smaller reporting companies, including the Company. The ASU became effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard update did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Current Expected Credit Loss Accounting Guidance

ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." Issued in June 2016, ASU 2016-13 removed the thresholds that entities previously applied to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. Known as the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) model, the revised guidance removed all recognition thresholds under previously used incurred loss models and requires entities to recognize an allowance for lifetime expected credit losses. The standard also added disclosure requirements intended to enable users of the financial statements to understand credit risk in the portfolio and how management monitors credit quality, management’s estimate of expected credit losses, and changes in the estimate of credit losses during the period. In addition, the standard made changes to the accounting for available for sale debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on available for sale debt securities if management does not intend to sell and does not believe that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell. As originally issued, ASU 2016-13 was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and for interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with institutions required to apply the changes through a cumulative-effect adjustment to their retained earnings balance as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. On October 16, 2019, the FASB approved a delay in the implementation of ASU 2016-13 by three years for smaller reporting companies, including the Company. The standard became effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, and the Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment that increased the allowance for credit losses by approximately $2.1 million. In addition, the Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment that increased other liabilities by $0.3 million as an allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments. In accordance with transition accounting guidance, the transition adjustments were recorded directly to retained earnings (net of tax) during the first quarter of 2023 and did not impact then-current period earnings.

Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures

ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) and Vintage Disclosures.” Issued in March 2022, ASU 2022-02 seeks to improve the decision usefulness of information provided to investors concerning certain loan refinancings, restructurings and write-offs. The ASU eliminated the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the CECL accounting model and enhanced the disclosure requirements for loan refinancings and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require disclosure of current-period gross write-offs for financing receivables and net investment in leases by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. The Company adopted the amendments of ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023, concurrent with the adoption of the CECL accounting model. The amendments of ASU 2022-02 include only changes to certain financial statement disclosures; and, therefore, adoption of ASU 2022-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

For purposes of the maturity table, mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been allocated over maturity groupings based on the weighted-average contractual maturities of underlying collateral. The mortgage-backed securities generally mature earlier than their weighted-average contractual maturities because of principal prepayments.

Available-for-Sale Considerations

For any securities classified as available-for-sale that are in an unrealized loss position as of the balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether or not it intends to sell the security, or more-likely-than-not will be required to sell the security, before recovery of its amortized cost basis which would require a write-down to fair value through net income.

As of June 30, 2023, 101 available-for-sale debt securities had been in a loss position for more than 12 months, and 12 available-for-sale debt securities had been in a loss position for less than 12 months. As of December 31, 2022, 37 available-for-sale debt securities had been in a loss position for more than 12 months, and 75 available-for-sale debt securities had been in a loss position for less than 12 months. The increase in the number of debt securities in a loss position for greater than 12 months was due to the sustained higher interest rate environment during the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had the current intent and ability to retain its investments for a period of time that management believes to be sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery of fair value. As of June 30, 2023, the losses for all available-for-sale securities were considered to be a direct result of the effect that the prevailing interest rate environment had on the value of debt securities and were not related to the creditworthiness of the issuers. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses was considered necessary related to available-for-sale securities as of June 30, 2023.

Held-to-Maturity Considerations

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the CECL accounting model to evaluate credit losses in the held-to-maturity investment portfolio. Each quarter, management evaluates the portfolio on a collective basis by major security type to determine whether an allowance for credit losses is needed. Qualitative factors are used in the Company’s credit loss assessments, including current and forecasted economic conditions, the characteristics of the debt issuer, and the historic ability of the issuer to make contractual principal and interest payments. Based on these evaluations, no allowance for credit losses was recorded by the Company for the held-to-maturity investment portfolio upon adoption of the CECL accounting model or as of June 30, 2023.

Pledged Securities

Investment securities with a carrying value of $43.9 million and $54.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes.

LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

Portfolio Segments

The Company has divided the loan portfolio into the following portfolio segments based on risk characteristics:

Construction, land development and other land loans – Commercial construction, land and land development loans include loans for the development of residential housing projects, loans for the development of commercial and industrial use property, loans for the purchase and improvement of raw land and loans primarily for agricultural production that are secured by farmland. These loans are secured in whole or in part by the underlying real estate collateral and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowing entity.

Secured by 1-4 family residential properties – These loans include conventional mortgage loans on one-to-four family residential properties. These properties may serve as the borrower’s primary residence, vacation home or investment property. Also included in this portfolio are home equity loans and lines of credit. This type of lending, which is secured by a first or second mortgage on the borrower’s residence, allows customers to borrow against the equity in their home.

Secured by multi-family residential properties – This portfolio segment includes mortgage loans secured by apartment buildings.

Secured by non-farm, non-residential properties – This portfolio segment includes real estate loans secured by commercial and industrial properties, office or mixed-use facilities, strip shopping centers or other commercial property. These loans are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowing entity.

Commercial and industrial loans and leases – This portfolio segment includes loans and leases to commercial customers for use in the normal course of business. These credits may be loans, lines of credit and leases to financially strong borrowers, secured by inventories, equipment or receivables, and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowing entity.

Direct consumer – This portfolio segment includes a variety of secured and unsecured personal loans, including automobile loans, loans for household and personal purposes and all other direct consumer installment loans.

17

Branch retail – This portfolio segment includes loans secured by collateral purchased by consumers at retail stores with whom ALC had an established relationship through its branch network to provide financing for the retail products sold if applicable underwriting standards were met. The collateral securing these loans generally includes personal property items such as furniture, ATVs and home appliances.

Indirect c onsumer – This portfolio segment includes loans secured by collateral purchased by consumers at retail stores with whom the Company has an established relationship to provide financing for the retail products sold if applicable underwriting standards are met. The collateral securing these loans generally includes recreational vehicles, campers, boats, horse trailers and cargo trailers.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the composition of the loan portfolio by reporting segment and portfolio segment was as follows:

Related Party Loans

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank makes loans to certain officers and directors of the Company, including companies with which they are associated. These loans are made on the same terms as those prevailing for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. Management believes that such loans do not represent more than a normal risk of collectability, nor do they present other unfavorable features. The aggregate balances of such related party loans and commitments were $1.4 million and $0.2 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there was one new loan to these parties and no repayments made. During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no new loans to these parties, and repayments by active related parties totaled $0.1 million.

Allowances for Credit Losses

Effective J anuary 1, 2023, the Company adopted the CECL model to account for credit losses on financial instruments, including loans and leases held for investment, as well as off-balance sheet credit exposures including unfunded lending commitments. In accordance with the CECL accounting guidance, the Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment totaling $2.4 million, of which $1.8 million (net of tax) was recorded through retained earnings upon adoption of the model. This amount included estimates for credit losses associated with both loan and lease receivables, as well as unfunded lending commitments. Prospectively, following the date of adoption, all adjustments for credit losses are required to be recorded as a provision for (recovery of) credit losses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.

Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans and Leases

Determining the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses is complex and requires judgment by management about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall loan portfolio, or particular segments of the portfolio, in the context of factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance and credit loss expense in those future periods. The level of the allowance is influenced by loan volumes and mix, historical credit loss experience, average remaining life of portfolio segments, asset quality characteristics, delinquency status, and other conditions including reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions and qualitative adjustment factors based on management’s understanding of various attributes that could impact life-of-loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The methodology to estimate losses includes two basic components: (1) an asset-specific component for individual loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with other loans, and (2) a pooled component for estimated expected credit losses for loans that share similar risk characteristics.

Loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans are evaluated on an individual basis. The process for determining whether a loan should be evaluated on an individual basis begins with a determination of credit rating. All loans graded substandard or worse with a total commitment of $0.5 million or more are evaluated on an individual basis. At management's discretion, other loans may be evaluated, including loans less than $0.5 million, if management determines that the loans exhibit unique risk characteristics. For loans individually evaluated, the allowance is based primarily on the fair value of the underlying collateral, utilizing independent third-party appraisals, and assessment of borrower guarantees.

For estimating the component of the allowance for credit losses that share similar risk characteristics, loans are segregated into loan segments or categories that share risk characteristics. Loans are designated into pooled segments based on product types, business lines, collateral, and other risk characteristics. For all pooled loan categories, the Company uses a loss-rate methodology to calculate estimated life-of-loan and lease credit losses. This methodology focuses on historical credit loss rates applied over the estimated weighted average remaining life of each loan segment, adjusted by qualitative factors, to estimate life-of-loan losses for each pooled segment. The qualitative factors utilized include, among others, reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic data, including inflation and unemployment levels, as well as interest rates.

The Company’s cumulative-effect adjustment upon the adoption of CECL increased the Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans and leases by $2.1 million. Subsequent to January 1, 2023, the Company recorded additional increases to the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases totaling $0.5 million which were included in the provision for credit losses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Allowance for Credit Losses - Unfunded Lending Commitments

Unfunded lending commitments are off-balance sheet arrangements that represent unconditional commitments of the Company to lend to a borrower that are unfunded as of the balance sheet date. These may include unfunded loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees. The CECL accounting guidance requires that an estimate of expected credit loss be measured on commitments in which an entity is exposed to credit risk via a present contractual obligation to extend credit unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the issuer. For the Company, unconditional lending commitments generally include unfunded term loan agreements, home equity lines of credit, lines of credit, and demand deposit account overdraft protection.

The Company’s cumulative-effect adjustment upon the adoption of CECL included a reserve for unfunded commitments of $0.3 million. As of June 30, 2023, the reserve, which is recorded in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, totaled $0.4 million. No reserve for unfunded commitments was recorded by the Company as of December 31, 2022.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company utilizes a credit grading system that provides a uniform framework for establishing and monitoring credit risk in the loan portfolio. Under this system, construction, land, multi-family real estate, other commercial real estate, and commercial and industrial loans are graded based on pre-determined risk metrics and categorized into one of nine risk grades. These risk grades can be summarized into categories described as pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss, as described in further detail below.

•
Pass (Risk Grades 1-5): Loans in this category include obligations in which the probability of default is considered low.
•
Special Mention (Risk Grade 6): Loans in this category exhibit potential credit weaknesses or downward trends deserving management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention loans are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Although a special mention asset has a higher probability of default than pass-rated categories, its default is not imminent.
•
Substandard (Risk Grade 7): Loans in this category have defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly liquidation of debt. A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Normal repayment from the borrower is in jeopardy, although no loss of principal is envisioned. There is a distinct possibility that a partial loss of interest and/or principal will occur if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified as substandard.
•
Doubtful (Risk Grade 8): Loans classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses found in substandard loans, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection of debt in full, based on currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable or improbable. Serious problems exist such that partial loss of principal is likely; however, because of certain important, reasonably specific pending factors that may work to strengthen the assets, the loans’ classification as estimated losses is deferred until a more exact status may be determined. Such pending factors may include proposed merger, acquisition or liquidation procedures, capital injection, perfection of liens on additional collateral and refinancing plans. Loans classified as doubtful may include loans to borrowers that have demonstrated a history of failing to live up to agreements. The Company did not have any loans classified as Doubtful (Risk Grade 8) as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
•
Loss (Risk Grade 9): Loans are classified in this category when borrowers are deemed incapable of repayment of unsecured debt. Loans to such borrowers are considered uncollectable and of such little value that continuance as active assets of the Company is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not prudent to defer writing off these assets, even though partial recovery may be realized in the future. The Company did not have any loans classified as Loss (Risk Grade 9) as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Because residential real estate and consumer loans are more uniform in nature, each loan is categorized into one of two risk grades, depending on whether the loan is considered to be performing or nonperforming. Performing loans are loans that are paying principal and interest in accordance with a contractual agreement.

Loan Modifications Made to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

From time to time, the Company may modify the terms of loan agreements with borrowers that are experiencing financial difficulties. Modification of the terms of such loans typically include one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; or a permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan. No modifications in 2023 or 2022 resulted in the permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not modify any loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, and there were no payment defaults on loans that were modified in the previous twelve months.

5.
OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED AND REPOSSESSED ASSETS

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate and certain other assets acquired in foreclosure are reported at the net realizable value of the property, less estimated costs to sell. The following table summarizes foreclosed property activity as of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | June 30, 2022 |
|  | (Dollars in Thousands) |
Beginning balance |  | $ | 686 |  |  | $ | 2,149 |
Additions |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Sales proceeds |  |  | — |  |  |  | (2,206 | )

Net gains |  |  | — |  |  |  | 334 |
Impairment |  |  | (69 | ) |  |  | (1 | )
Ending balance |  | $ | 617 |  |  | $ | 276 |

Valuation adjustments are recorded in other non-interest expense and are primarily post-foreclosure write-downs that are a result of continued declining property values based on updated appraisals or other indications of value, such as offers to purchase. Net realizable value less estimated costs to sell of foreclosed residential real estate held by the Company was $20 thousand and zero as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. In addition, the Company held zero and $18 thousand in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate that were in the process of foreclosure as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Repossessed Assets

The Company also acquires assets through the repossession of the underlying collateral of loans in default. The following table summarizes repossessed asset activity as of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | June 30, 2022 |
|  | (Dollars in Thousands) |
Beginning balance |  | $ | 83 |  |  | $ | 154 |

6.
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more often if circumstances warrant. If, as a result of impairment testing, it is determined that the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, impairment is indicated, and goodwill must be written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Goodwill, originally recorded as a result of the Company's acquisition of The Peoples Bank ("TPB") in 2018, totaled $7.4 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Goodwill impairment was neither indicated nor recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or the year ended December 31, 2022.

Core deposit premiums are amortized over a seven-year period and are periodically evaluated, at least annually, as to the recoverability of their carrying value. Core deposit premiums of $2.0 million were recorded during 2018 as part of the TPB acquisition.

The Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets (carrying basis and accumulated amortization) as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:

|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |
|  | (Dollars in Thousands) |
Goodwill |  | $ | 7,435 |  |  | $ | 7,435 |
Core deposit intangible: |  |  |  |  |  |
Gross carrying amount |  |  | 2,048 |  |  |  | 2,048 |
Accumulated amortization |  |  | (1,792 | ) |  |  | (1,682 | )
Core deposit intangible, net |  |  | 256 |  |  |  | 366 |
Total |  | $ | 7,691 |  |  | $ | 7,801 |

The Company’s estimated remaining amortization expense on intangible assets as of June 30, 2023 was as follows:

|  | Amortization Expense |
|  | (Dollars in Thousands) |
2023 |  | $ | 85 |
2024 |  |  | 122 |
2025 |  |  | 49 |
Total |  | $ | 256 |

The net carrying amount of the Company’s core deposit premiums is not considered recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from use and eventual disposition. That assessment is based on the carrying amount of the intangible assets subject to amortization at the date on which it is tested for recoverability. Intangible assets subject to amortization are tested by the Company for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.

BORROWINGS

Short-Term Borrowings

Short-term borrowings consist of federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and short-term FHLB advances with original maturities of one year or less.

•
Federal funds purchased, which represent unsecured lines of credit that generally mature within one to four days, are available to the Bank through arrangements with correspondent banks and the Federal Reserve. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no federal funds purchased outstanding.
•
Securities sold under repurchase agreements, which are secured borrowings, generally are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. The Bank may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. The Bank monitors the fair value of the underlying securities on a daily basis. There were no securities sold under repurchase agreements as of June 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, securities sold under repurchase agreements totaled $38 thousand.
•
Short-term FHLB advances are secured borrowings available to the Bank as an alternative funding source. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Bank had $30.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, in outstanding FHLB advances with original maturities of less than one year.

29

Long-Term Borrowings

FHLB Advances

The Company may use FHLB advances with original maturities of more than one year as an alternative to funding sources with similar maturities, such as certificates of deposit or other deposit programs. These advances generally offer more attractive rates than other mid-term financing options. They are also flexible, allowing the Company to quickly obtain the necessary maturities and rates that best suit its overall asset/liability strategy. FHLB advances with an original maturity of more than one year are classified as long-term. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did no t have any long-term FHLB advances outstanding.

Subordinated Debt

On October 1, 2021, the Company completed a private placement of $11.0 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes that will mature on October 1, 2031 (the “Notes”). The Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.50% per annum for the first five years, after which the interest rate will be reset quarterly to a benchmark interest rate per annum which, subject to certain conditions provided in the Notes, will be equal to the then current three-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 275 basis points. The Company used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repurchasing of the Company’s common stock, and supporting organic growth plans, including the maintenance of capital ratios. Net of unamortized debt issuance costs, the Notes were recorded as long-term borrowings totaling $10.8 million and $10.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The table below provides additional information related to the Notes as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

|  | June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
|  | (Dollars in Thousands) |
Balance at period-end |  | $ | 10,763 |  |  | $ | 10,690 |
Average balance during the period |  | $ | 10,757 |  |  | $ | 10,683 |
Maximum month-end balance during the year |  | $ | 10,763 |  |  | $ | 10,690 |
Average rate paid during the period, including amortization of debt issuance costs |  |  | 4.16 | % |  |  | 4.16 | %
Weighted average remaining maturity (in years) |  |  | 8.25 |  |  |  | 9.25 |

Available Credit

As an additional funding source, the Company has available unused lines of credit with correspondent banks, the Federal Reserve and the FHLB. Certain of these funding sources are subject to underlying collateral. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s available unused lines of credit consisted of the following:

Available Unused Lines of Credit |  | Collateral Requirements |  | June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Correspondent banks |  | None |  | $28.0 million |  | $45.0 million
FHLB advances (1) |  | Subject to collateral |  | $248.0 million |  | $246.8 million
Federal Reserve |  | Subject to collateral |  | (2) |  | (2)

(1)
These amounts represent the total remaining credit the Company has from the FHLB, but this credit can only be utilized to the extent that underlying collateral exists. The total lendable collateral value of assets pledged (including loans and investment securities) associated with FHLB advances and letters of credit totaled $71.0 million and $68.2 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company’s collateral exposure with the FHLB in the form of advances and letters of credit was $60.0 million and $50.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, leaving an excess of collateral of $11.0 million and $18.2 million, respectively, available to utilize for additional credit as of the respective dates. The Company also has the ability to pledge additional assets to increase the availability of borrowings.
(2)
The Company has access to the Federal Reserve’s discount window and its Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP), the latter of which was established during the first quarter of 2023 in response to the liquidity events that occurred in the banking industry. Both the discount window and the BTFP allow borrowing on pledged collateral that includes eligible investment securities and, in certain circumstances, eligible loans. The discount window allows borrowing under 90-day terms, while borrowing terms under the BTFP are up to one year. The BTFP also allows investment securities to be pledged as collateral at 100% of par value when par value is greater than fair value.

8.
INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes was $1.3 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was 24.1% and 24.4%, respectively, for the same periods. The effective tax rate is impacted by recurring permanent differences, such as those associated with bank-owned life insurance and tax-exempt investment and loan income.

The Company had a net deferred tax asset of $6.1 million and $5.2 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The net deferred tax asset, which is included on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheet in other assets, is impacted by changes in the fair value of securities available-for-sale and cash flow hedges, changes in net operating loss carryforwards and other book-to-tax temporary differences. The net deferred tax asset increased by $0.6 million as a result of the cumulative effect adjustment to adopt ASC 326, effective January 1, 2023.

9.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS

Supplemental Retirement Benefits

The Company has entered into supplemental retirement compensation benefits agreements with certain directors and former executive officers. The measurement of the liability under these agreements includes estimates involving life expectancy, length of time before retirement and the expected returns on the bank-owned life insurance policies used to fund those agreements. Should these estimates prove to be materially wrong, the cost of these agreements could change accordingly. The related deferred compensation obligation to these directors and executive officers included in other liabilities was $3.0 million and $3.1 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Non-Employee Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan

Non-employee directors may elect to defer payment of all or any portion of their director fees under Bancshares’ Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferral Plan”). The Deferral Plan permits non-employee directors to invest their directors’ fees and to receive the adjusted value of the deferred amounts in cash and/or shares of Bancshares’ common stock, as applicable. Neither Bancshares nor the Bank makes any contribution to participants’ accounts under the Deferral Plan. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, a total of 109,277 and 114,190 shares of Bancshares common stock, respectively, were being held as stock equivalents in connection with the Deferral Plan. All deferred fees and shares of Bancshares common stock are reflected as compensation expense in the period earned. The Company classifies all deferred directors’ fees allocated to be paid in shares as equity as additional paid-in capital. The Company may use issued shares or shares of treasury stock to satisfy these obligations when due.

10.
STOCK AWARDS

In 2013, Bancshares’ shareholders authorized the Company, under the direction of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to provide share-based compensation awards to eligible employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates pursuant to the 2013 Incentive Plan. Available award types included stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, and performance share awards. The 2013 Incentive Plan, as amended in 2019, expired in March 2023. In April 2023, Bancshares’ shareholders approved the 2023 Incentive Plan, which authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant substantially the same types of share-based awards to eligible employees, directors and consultants. Collectively, the 2013 Incentive Plan and the 2023 Incentive Plan are herein referred to as the Company’s “Incentive Plan.” In accordance with the Incentive Plan, shares of common stock available for issuance pursuant to the grants may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner. Since the origination of the Incentive Plan, through June 30, 2023, only stock options and restricted stock have been granted. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, stock-based compensation expense related to stock awards totaled $0.3 million, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

31

Stock Options

Stock option awards have been granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant and have vesting periods ranging from one to three years, with 10-year contractual terms. The Company recognizes the cost of services received in exchange for stock option awards based on the grant date fair value of the award, with compensation expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the award’s vesting period. The fair value of outstanding awards was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company did no t grant any stock option awards during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity for the periods presented.

|  | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | June 30, 2022 |

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding (calculated as the amount by which the market value of underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option) was $0.1 and $0.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Restricted Stock

During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 57,300 shares and 45,938 shares, respectively, of restricted stock were granted. The Company recognizes the cost of services received in exchange for restricted stock awards based on the grant date closing price of the stock, with compensation expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the award’s vesting period.

11.
LEASES

The Bank and ALC are involved in a number of operating leases, primarily for branch locations. Branch leases have remaining lease terms ranging from two years to six years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to five years, and some of which include an option to terminate the lease within one year. The Bank also leases certain office facilities to third parties and classifies these leases as operating leases.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of certain balance sheet assets and liabilities. In the normal course of business, the Company also uses derivative financial instruments to add stability to interest income or expense and to manage its exposure to movements in interest rates. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enters into transactions that have a qualifying hedge relationship. The Company’s hedging strategies involving interest rate derivatives are classified as either cash flow hedges or fair value hedges, depending upon the rate characteristic of the hedged item.

Active Hedges

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company entered into three forward interest rate swap contracts on a pool of fixed rate indirect consumer loans. Each of the three hedge contracts has a $10.0 million notional amount. The interest rate swaps were designated as derivative instruments in fair value hedges with the objective of effectively converting a pool of fixed rate indirect consumer loans to a variable rate throughout the hedge durations in accordance with the portfolio layer method. Under the contractual arrangements, for each swap, the Company pays a fixed interest rate and receives a variable interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), on the notional amounts, with monthly net settlements.

33

Hedges Terminated in 2023

In February 2023, the Company voluntarily terminated four interest rates swap agreements each with notional amounts of $10.0 million, or an aggregate amount of $40.0 million. Two of the swaps were previously designated as cash flow hedges, while two were previously designated as fair value hedges. The termination of the cash flow hedges resulted in a net unrealized gain totaling $1.1 million. The unrealized gain was initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, and is being reclassified to reduce interest expense over the original terms of the swap contracts. The termination of the fair value hedges resulted in an unrealized gain totaling $1.0 million which is being reclassified to increase interest income over the original terms of the swap contracts.

Hedge Terminated in 2022

In May 2022, the Company voluntarily terminated one interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $10.0 million. The swap was previously designated as a cash flow hedge. The termination resulted in a net unrealized gain of $0.3 million. The unrealized gain was initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, and is being reclassified to reduce interest expense over the original term of the swap contract.

SEGMENT REPORTING

Under ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, certain information is disclosed for the two reportable operating segments of Bancshares: the Bank and ALC. The reportable segments were determined using the internal management reporting system. These segments comprise Bancshares’ and the Bank’s significant subsidiaries. The accounting policies for each segment are the same as those described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K, as amended in 2023 by the adoption of ASC 326 as discussed in Note 2. The segment results include certain overhead allocations and intercompany transactions that were recorded at current market prices. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated to determine the consolidated balances. The results for the two reportable segments of the Company are included in the tables below.

GUARANTEES, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Credit

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party for commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making these commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

In the normal course of business, there are outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and others, that are not included in the consolidated financial statements. The financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the financial statements. A summary of these commitments and contingent liabilities is presented below:

|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |
|  | (Dollars in Thousands) |
Standby letters of credit |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Standby performance letters of credit |  | $ | 531 |  |  | $ | 556 |
Commitments to extend credit |  | $ | 167,258 |  |  | $ | 186,169 |

Standby letters of credit and standby performance letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Bank generally to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The Bank has recourse against the customer for any amount that it is required to pay to a third party under a standby letter of credit or standby performance letter of credit. Revenues are recognized over the lives of the standby letters of credit and standby performance letters of credit. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the potential amounts of future payments that the Bank could be required to make under its standby letters of credit and standby performance letters of credit, which represent the Bank’s total credit risk in these categories, are included in the table above.

A commitment to extend credit is an agreement to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon the extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

In accordance with the adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, the Company recorded a reserve for unfunded commitments of $0.3 million. The reserve, which is included in other liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet, totaled $0.4 million as of June 30, 2023. Additional discussion related to the calculation of the reserve for unfunded commitments is included in Note 4.

However, the Company maintains stop-loss coverage with third-party insurers to limit the Company’s individual claim and total exposure related to self-insurance. The Company estimates a liability for the ultimate costs to settle known claims, as well as claims incurred but not yet reported, as of the balance sheet date. The Company’s recorded estimated liability for self-insurance is based on the insurance companies' incurred loss estimates and management’s judgment, including assumptions and evaluation of factors related to the frequency and severity of claims, the Company’s claims development history and the Company’s claims settlement practices. The assessment of loss contingencies and self-insurance reserves is a highly subjective process that requires judgments about future events. Contingencies are reviewed at least quarterly to determine the adequacy of self-insurance accruals. Self-insurance accruals totaled $0.2 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The ultimate settlement of loss contingencies and self-insurance reserves may differ significantly from amounts accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Litigation

The Company is party to certain ordinary course litigation from time to time, and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all such litigation. In the opinion of the Company, based on review and consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such ordinary course litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The assumptions used in the Company’s estimation of the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are detailed below. The following disclosures should not be considered a representation of the liquidation value of the Company, but rather represent a good-faith estimate of the increase or decrease in value of financial instruments held by the Company since purchase, origination or issuance.

Fair Value Hierarchy

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods, including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair value. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

•
Level 1 — Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

•
Level 2 — Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities.
•
Level 3 — Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market exchange, dealer or broker-traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.

The Company rarely transfers assets and liabilities measured at fair value between Level 1 and Level 2 measurements. Trading account assets and securities available-for-sale may be periodically transferred to or from Level 3 valuation based on management’s conclusion regarding the best method of pricing for an individual security. Such transfers are accounted for as if they occurred at the beginning of a reporting period. There were no such transfers during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or the year ended December 31, 2022.

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

Securities Available-for-Sale

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include U.S. Treasury securities. Level 2 securities include agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset-backed and other securities. Level 2 fair values are obtained from quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. In certain cases, where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Interest Rate Derivative Agreements

Interest rate derivative agreements are used by the Company to mitigate risk associated with changes in interest rates. The fair value of these agreements is based on information obtained from third-party financial institutions. This information is periodically evaluated by the Company and, as necessary, corroborated against other third-party valuations. The Company classifies these derivative assets within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Fair Value Measurements on a Non-recurring Basis

Collateral Dependent Loans

Collateral dependent loans are measured at the fair value of the collateral securing the loan less estimated selling costs. The fair value of real estate collateral is determined based on real estate appraisals, which are generally based on recent sales of comparable properties which are then adjusted for property specific factors. Non-real estate collateral value is based on various sources, including third party asset valuations and internally determined values based on cost, adjusted for depreciation and other judgmentally determined discount factors. Collateral dependent loans are classified as Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy due to the unobservable inputs used in determining their fair value, such as collateral values and the borrower's underlying financial condition.

OREO and Other Assets Held-for-Sale

OREO consists of properties obtained through foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans and is recorded at net realizable value, less estimated cost to sell. Estimates of fair value are generally based on third-party appraisals of the property and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The appraisals are sometimes discounted based on management’s knowledge of the property and/or changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal. Such discounts are typically significant unobservable inputs for determining fair value.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, included within OREO were certain assets that were formerly included as premises and equipment but have been removed from service, and as of the balance sheet date, were designated as assets to be disposed of by sale. These include assets associated with branches of the Bank and ALC that have been closed. When an asset is designated as held-for-sale, the Company ceases depreciation of the asset, and the asset is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less estimated cost to sell. Estimates of fair value are generally based on third-party appraisals of the property and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The appraisals are sometimes discounted based on management’s knowledge of the property and/or changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal. Such discounts are typically unobservable inputs for determining fair value.

The following table presents the balances of impaired loans, OREO and other assets held-for-sale measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs

The following table presents information regarding assets and liabilities measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of June 30, 2023. The table includes the valuation techniques and the significant unobservable inputs utilized. The range of each unobservable input and the weighted average within the range utilized as of June 30, 2023 are both included. Following the table is a description of the valuation technique and the sensitivity of the technique to changes in the significant unobservable input.

|  | Level 3 Significant Unobservable Input Assumptions
|  | Fair Value June 30, 2023 |  |  | Valuation Technique |  | Unobservable Input |  | Quantitative Range of Unobservable Inputs (Weighted Average)
|  | (Dollars in Thousands) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Non-recurring fair value measurements: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Collateral dependent loans |  | $ | 91 |  |  | Multiple data points, including discount to appraised value of collateral based on recent market activity |  | Appraisal comparability adjustment (discount) |  | 9%-10% |  | (9.5%)
OREO and other assets held-for-sale |  | $ | 617 |  |  | Discount to appraised value of property based on recent market activity for sales of similar properties |  | Appraisal comparability adjustment (discount) |  | 9%-10% |  | (9.5%)

Collateral Dependent Loans

Collateral dependent loans are valued based on multiple data points indicating the fair value for each loan. The primary data point is the appraisal value of the underlying collateral, to which a discount is applied. Management establishes this discount or comparability adjustment based on recent sales of similar property types. As liquidity in the market increases or decreases, the comparability adjustment and the resulting asset valuation are impacted.

OREO

OREO under a binding contract for sale is valued based on contract price. If no sales contract is pending for a specific property, management establishes a comparability adjustment to the appraised value based on historical activity, considering proceeds for properties sold versus the corresponding appraised value. Increases or decreases in realization for properties sold impact the comparability adjustment for similar assets remaining on the balance sheet.

Other Assets Held-for-Sale

Assets designated as held-for-sale that are under a binding contract are valued based on the contract price. If no sales contract is pending for a specific property, management establishes a comparability adjustment to the appraised value based on historical activity, considering proceeds for properties sold versus the corresponding appraised value. Increases or decreases in realization for properties sold impact the comparability adjustment for similar assets remaining on the balance sheet.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:

Cash, due from banks and federal funds sold: The carrying amount of cash, due from banks and federal funds sold approximates fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock: Based on the redemption provision of the FHLB, the stock has no quoted market value and is carried at cost.

Investment securities: Fair values of investment securities are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on market prices of comparable instruments.

Derivative instruments: The fair value of derivative instruments is based on information obtained from a third-party financial institution. This information is periodically evaluated by the Company and, as necessary, corroborated against other third-party information.

Accrued interest receivable and payable: The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates fair value.

Loans, net: The fair value of loans is estimated on an exit price basis incorporating contractual cash flow, prepayment discount spreads, credit loss and liquidity premiums.

Demand and savings deposits: The fair values of demand deposits are equal to the carrying value of such deposits. Demand deposits include non-interest-bearing demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and money market demand accounts.

Time deposits: The fair values of relatively short-term time deposits are equal to their carrying values. Discounted cash flows are used to value long-term time deposits. The discount rate used is based on interest rates currently offered by the Company on comparable deposits as to amount and term.

Short-term borrowings: These borrowings may consist of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and the floating rate borrowings from the FHLB account. Due to the short-term nature of these borrowings, fair values approximate carrying values.

Long-term debt: The fair value of this debt is estimated using discounted cash flows based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements as of the determination date.

Off-balance sheet instruments: The carrying amount of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit approximates fair value. The carrying amount of the off-balance sheet financial instruments is based on fees currently charged to enter into such agreements.

The estimated fair value and related carrying or notional amounts, as well as the level within the fair value hierarchy, of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:

|  | June 30, 2023 |

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

First US Bancshares, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bancshares” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is a bank holding company with its principal offices in Birmingham, Alabama. Bancshares operates one commercial banking subsidiary, First US Bank (the “Bank”). As of June 30, 2023, the Bank operated and served its customers through 15 banking offices located in Birmingham, Butler, Calera, Centreville, Gilbertown, Grove Hill, Harpersville, Jackson, Thomasville, Tuscaloosa and Woodstock, Alabama; Knoxville and Powell, Tennessee; and Rose Hill, Virginia. In addition, the Bank operates loan production offices in Mobile, Alabama and the Chattanooga, Tennessee area. The Bank provides a wide range of commercial banking services to small- and medium-sized businesses, property managers, business executives, professionals and other individuals. The Bank also performs indirect lending through third-party retailers and currently conducts this lending in 17 states, including Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia.

The Bank owns all of the stock of Acceptance Loan Company, Inc., an Alabama corporation (“ALC”). ALC is a finance company headquartered in Mobile, Alabama. During the third quarter of 2021, ALC ceased new business development and permanently closed its 20 branch lending locations in Alabama and Mississippi to the public. ALC continues to service its remaining portfolio of loans from its headquarters.

Delivery of the best possible financial services to customers remains an overall operational focus of the Company. The Company recognizes that attention to detail and responsiveness to customers’ desires are critical to customer satisfaction. The Company continues to upgrade technology, both in its financial services and in the training of its 153 full-time equivalent employees (as of June 30, 2023), to ensure customer satisfaction and convenience.

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make subjective judgments associated with estimates. These estimates are necessary to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and general banking practices. These estimates include accounting for the allowance for credit losses, the right-of-use asset and lease liability, the value of other real estate owned and certain collateral-dependent loans, consideration related to goodwill impairment testing and deferred tax asset valuation. A description of these estimates, which significantly affect the determination of the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, is set forth in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's 2022 Form 10-K, as amended in 2023 by the adoption of ASC 326, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as discussed in Note 2, “Basis of Presentation,” in the Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The emphasis of this discussion is a comparison of assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity as of June 30, 2023 to December 31, 2022, while comparing income and expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

All yields and ratios presented and discussed herein are recorded and presented on the accrual basis and not on the tax-equivalent basis, unless otherwise indicated.

This information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in Bancshares’ the Company's 2022 Form 10-K. As used in the following discussion, the words “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Bancshares and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

RECENT MARKET CONDITIONS

During the six months ended June 30, 2023 the banking industry saw a significant level of volatility due to notable banking failures that occurred primarily during the first quarter of 2023, as well as ongoing increases in interest rates that have generally led to contraction of net interest margin throughout the industry. While year-over-year inflation levels have continued to ease from 40-year highs that were reached during 2022, inflation remains elevated over the Federal Reserve’s long run target. In its ongoing effort to reduce inflation levels, the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) has continued to raise the target federal funds rate, with three additional increases of 25 basis points during the first six months of 2023. On July 26, 2023, the FRB again raised the target rate by 25 basis points, representing the eleventh increase since the FRB began its current cycle of increases in March 2022. As of July 26, 2023, the target federal funds rate was 5.25% to 5.50%.

As interest rates have increased, competitive pressures have also increased, particularly related to deposit pricing. Due primarily to the rising cost of funding, net interest margin compressed significantly throughout the banking industry during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The substantial pace and magnitude of changes in interest rates introduced a higher level of uncertainty throughout the banking industry, and the impact that such change will have on the Company’s future operating results cannot be predicted with certainty. During this still-ongoing and still-volatile transition period, the yield curve has become significantly inverted at times, indicating substantial economic uncertainty, including the possibility of economic recession. The unusual yield curve effects, including inversion, may continue. Further, if the rate of inflation remains elevated or accelerates, the Company’s operations could be impacted by, among other things, accelerating cost of goods and services, including the cost of salaries and benefits. Additionally, the Company’s borrowers could be negatively impacted by rising expense levels, leading to deterioration of credit quality and/or reductions in the Company’s lending activity. The higher interest rate environment has also led to unrealized losses in the Company's investment portfolio, which consists primarily of fixed-rate instruments.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Strategic Focus and Impact on Asset Quality

Since late 2021, the Company has benefited from strategic initiatives implemented in the third quarter of 2021 that were designed to improve operating efficiency, focus the Company’s loan growth activities, and fortify asset quality. The most significant component of these initiatives was the cessation of new business at ALC. This initiative, which included the closure of ALC’s branch lending locations in September 2021, served to significantly decrease the Company’s non-interest expense beginning in 2022, and is expected to substantially improve the Company’s consumer lending asset quality as ALC’s remaining loans pay down over time. Historically, ALC’s loans have produced significantly higher levels of charge-offs than the Bank’s other loan portfolios.

As of June 30, 2023, remaining loans at ALC totaled $14.2 million, compared to $20.2 million as of December 31, 2022. During the first half of 2023, the Company began to realize substantially lower levels of net charge-offs associated with ALC loans as compared to prior periods. Net charge-offs on ALC loans totaled $0.2 million, or 2.61% of average loans, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.1 million, or 6.36% of average loans, during the six months ended June 30, 2022. While ALC’s loans have decreased, management has continued to focus the Company’s loan growth activities on other consumer portfolios of higher credit quality. In recent years, the Company’s primary vehicle for consumer loan growth has been through the Bank’s indirect consumer lending program, which now operates in 17 states and consists of loans collateralized by recreational vehicles, campers, boats, horse trailers and cargo trailers. As of June 30, 2023, loans obtained through the indirect program totaled $300.2 million, compared to $266.6 million as of December 31, 2022. The weighted average credit score of loans in the indirect program totaled 770 as of June 30, 2023, and the weighted average credit score of loans added to the portfolio during the first six months of 2023 totaled 792. While net charge-offs in the indirect portfolio have increased in 2023 compared to 2022, loss percentages remain relatively low compared to ALC's historic levels. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans in the indirect portfolio totaled 0.20% during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 0.08% during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The reductions in ALC’s lending portfolio and growth in consumer lending of more favorable credit quality through the indirect program have contributed to substantial improvement in the credit quality of the Company’s consumer portfolio since late 2021 and, accordingly, has led to improvement in the Company’s overall asset quality.

The discussion that follows summarizes the most significant activity that drove changes in the Company’s net income during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Net Interest Income and Margin

Net interest income increased by $1.2 million, or 7.0%, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was due to a combination of margin expansion that occurred primarily during the latter half of 2022, as well as growth in loans that occurred over both the last six months of 2022 and the first six months of 2023. Interest income increased by $6.1 million, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The average rate on earning assets totaled 5.33% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 4.25% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Loans, the most significant contributor to the Company’s interest income, averaged $781.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $697.7 million during the corresponding period of 2022.

The increase in interest income was partially offset by increases in funding costs amid the rising interest rate environment. Total interest expense increased by $4.8 million, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the corresponding period of 2022. The increased expense was mostly driven by higher interest rates as average total funding costs increased to 1.37% during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 0.32% during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $0.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The reduction resulted primarily from reduced charge-off levels comparing the two periods, mostly related to ALC’s loans which have continued to reduce following implementation of the cessation of business strategy. The Company’s net charge-offs totaled $0.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The reduction included a decrease of $0.9 million in net charge-offs associated with ALC’s portfolio, partially offset by an increase in net charge-offs associated with the indirect consumer portfolio totaling $0.2 million. The Company’s net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans totaled 0.14% during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 0.34% during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income totaled $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The modest reduction between the two periods resulted primarily from decreases in ATM fee income and service charges associated with deposit accounts,

47

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense totaled $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase resulted from increases in various expense categories, as well as nonrecurring gains on sale of other real estate that offset expenses during the first six months of 2022 that were not repeated during the first six months of 2023. Increased expenses were partially offset by a reduction in salary and benefits expense of 2.3% comparing the two periods.

Balance Sheet Levels

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s assets totaled $1,068.1 million, compared to $994.7 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of 7.4%.

Loans

Total loans increased by $40.6 million, or 5.2%, as of June 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022. Loan volume increases were driven primarily by growth in construction, consumer indirect, and to a lesser extent, commercial real estate loans (secured by non-farm, non-residential properties). The increase in the construction category was primarily attributable to growth in construction fundings on multi-family residential projects, while the growth in the commercial real estate category reflected ongoing economic growth in the Company’s service territories, albeit at a slowing pace. Growth in indirect consumer lending was consistent with continued demand for the products collateralized through the Company's indirect program. Indirect loan growth tends to be seasonal due to its emphasis on outdoor recreational products, with growth typically more pronounced in the spring and early summer months. The products collateralized through the Company's indirect program continue to be focused on recreational vehicles, campers, boats, horse trailers and cargo trailers. As of June 30, 2023, the Company conducted indirect lending in 17 states. This loan growth during the first six months of 2023 was partially offset by decreases in the multi-family residential, and other commercial and consumer categories. Loans in the direct consumer and branch retail consumer categories decreased since December 31, 2022 as expected, as these loans comprise the majority of ALC’s remaining loan balances.

Deposit Growth

Deposits totaled $932.6 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $870.0 million as of December 31, 2022. The year-to-date growth included an increase of $71.9 million in interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decrease of $9.3 million in noninterest-bearing deposits. The year-to-date shift to interest-bearing deposits is consistent with deposit holders seeking to maximize interest earnings on their accounts. In addition, deposit growth for the first six months of 2023 included growth of $40.2 million in wholesale brokered deposits that were acquired in order to further enhance the Company’s liquidity position following the bank failures that occurred primarily during the first quarter of 2023. As of June 30, 2023, core deposits, which exclude time deposits of $250 thousand or more and all brokered deposits, totaled $785.7 million, or 84.2% of total deposits, compared to $778.1 million, or 89.4% of total deposits, as of December 31, 2022.

Deployment of Funds

Management seeks to deploy earning assets in an efficient manner to maximize net interest income while maintaining appropriate levels of liquidity to protect the safety and soundness of the organization. Management’s decisions during the first six months of 2023, particularly following the bank failures that occurred in the banking industry, were focused on maintaining the Company’s strong liquidity position. As part of this focus, management elected to hold higher levels of cash and cash equivalents and did not seek to re-deploy excess cash into the Company’s investment securities portfolio during the period. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $74.7 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $30.2 million as of December 31, 2022. Investment securities, including both the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios, totaled $124.4 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $132.7 million as of December 31, 2022. The expected average life of securities in the investment portfolio was 3.6 years as of June 30, 2023, compared to 3.5 years as of December 31, 2022. Management will continue to evaluate opportunities to invest excess cash balances within the context of anticipated loan and deposit growth and current liquidity needs.

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity increased by $0.6 million, or 0.7%, as of June 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022. The increase in shareholders’ equity resulted from earnings, net of dividends paid, partially offset by the CECL transition adjustment which reduced retained earnings by $1.8 million, net of tax, as well as a net increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $1.4 million associated with fair value declines in the available-for-sale investment portfolio and reclassification adjustments associated with terminated interest rate swaps.

Cash Dividends

The Company declared cash dividends totaling $0.10 per share on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to cash dividends totaling $0.06 per share on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

48

Regulatory Capital

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Bank continued to maintain capital ratios at higher levels than required to be considered a “well-capitalized” institution under applicable banking regulations. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank’s common equity Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios were each 10.96%. Its total capital ratio was 12.21%, and its Tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.19%.

Liquidity

As of June 30, 2023, the Company continued to maintain excess funding capacity sufficient to provide adequate liquidity for loan growth, capital expenditures and ongoing operations. The Company benefits from a strong core deposit base, a liquid investment securities portfolio and access to funding from a variety of sources, including federal funds lines, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances and brokered deposits. In addition, the Company has access to the Federal Reserve’s discount window and its Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP), the latter of which was established in response to the recent liquidity events that have occurred in the banking industry. Both the discount window and the BTFP allow borrowing on pledged collateral that includes eligible investment securities and, in certain circumstances, eligible loans.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is calculated as the difference between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Fluctuations in interest rates, as well as volume and mix changes in earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, can materially impact net interest income. The Company’s earning assets consist of loans, taxable and tax-exempt investments, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, federal funds sold by the Bank and interest-bearing deposits in banks. Interest-bearing liabilities consist of interest-bearing demand deposits and savings and time deposits, as well as short- and long-term borrowings.

The following tables show the average balances of each principal category of assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Additionally, the tables provide an analysis of interest revenue or expense associated with each category, along with the accompanying yield or rate percentage. Net interest margin is calculated for each period presented as net interest income divided by average total interest-earning assets.

Interest income increased by $6.1 million, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Of the increase, $4.1 million was attributable to higher average yields on interest-earning assets, while $2.0 million was attributable to growth in average loan volume comparing the two periods. The increase in average yield was attributable to the rise in market interest rates that began in 2022 and has continued in 2023. The increase in interest income associated with loan volume increases was attributable to loan growth during the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $40.6 million, or 5.2%.

The increase in interest income was partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $4.8 million, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Of the increase, $4.4 million was attributable to the rise in market interest rates, while $0.4 million was attributable to growth in interest-bearing liabilities, primarily time deposits and borrowings. During the latter half of 2022 and through the first six months of 2023, the Company has focused a portion of its deposit marketing efforts on growth in time deposits of various maturities in an effort to increase the predictability of funding cash flows. Additionally, the Company has utilized wholesale brokered deposits and short-term FHLB borrowings to a larger extent, particularly during the six months ended June 30, 2023, in order to enhance the Company’s on-balance sheet liquidity position. Efforts to enhance the Company’s on-balance sheet liquidity were taken primarily as precautionary measures in the wake of liquidity events that impacted the banking industry primarily during the first quarter of 2023.

The rising market interest rate environment has had, and continues to have, a significant impact on the Company and the banking industry in general. Beginning in March 2022 and through June 30, 2023, the Federal Open Market Committee raised the federal funds rate by a total of 500 basis points, and on July 26, 2023, raised the rate by an additional 25 basis points. Statements by Federal Reserve officials have indicated that further interest rate increases are possible to address ongoing inflationary pressures. While the Company has generally been positioned to benefit from the rising interest rate environment that has occurred, the Company’s net interest margin began to decline during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased at a faster pace than interest-earning assets. Further, in connection with the liquidity events that occurred in the banking industry during the first quarter of 2023, competition for deposits has intensified significantly. This increased competition, coupled with the volatility of the banking industry, has introduced additional uncertainty into the market. Should market interest rates continue to rise or reduce at significant levels, the Company’s net interest income could be negatively impacted.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $0.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The year-to-date decrease in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily the result of the cessation of business strategy at ALC, which has led to significantly reduced net charge-offs as ALC’s loans have paid down. Net charge-offs on ALC loans totaled $0.2 million, or 2.61% of average loans, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.1 million, or 6.36% of average loans, during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

While the Company experienced improved charge-off metrics during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, the timing of charge-offs, economic developments, and other factors that could impact the provision for credit losses cannot be fully predicted with certainty. Sustained levels of high inflation, combined with the recent rapid rise in market interest rates, could negatively impact the Company’s borrowers, which could lead to increased provisions for credit losses in the future.

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the CECL model to account for credit losses on financial instruments, including loans and leases, unfunded commitments and held-to-maturity securities. The adoption of the CECL model resulted in a transition adjustment totaling $2.4 million, increasing the Company’s allowance for credit losses by $2.1 million, and establishing a reserve for unfunded commitments of $0.3 million. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s allowance for credit losses totaled 1.42% of total loans, compared to 1.22% as of December 31, 2022. While management believes that the allowance for credit losses, as well as the reserve for unfunded commitments, was sufficient to absorb life-of-loan credit losses based on circumstances existing as of the balance sheet date, combined with reasonable and supportable forecasts, the determination of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Changing economic circumstances or forecasts, or changes in management’s judgments and estimates, could result in additional credit loss expense in future periods.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income represents fees and income derived from sources other than interest-earning assets. The following table presents the major components of non-interest income for the periods indicated:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |

The Company’s non-interest income was relatively consistent comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the six months ended June 30, 2022. In recent periods, the Company’s sources of non-interest revenue have not fluctuated significantly, with the exception of nonrecurring increases or decreases that have occurred from time to time due to gains or losses on sales of assets or other nonrecurring sources. The majority of the Company’s sources of non-interest income are relatively stable and are not expected to change significantly in the near term. However, non-interest revenues earned from service charges and other fees on deposit accounts have generally declined in recent years for a number of reasons, including a changing regulatory environment associated with these types of revenues. Management continues to evaluate opportunities to add non-interest revenue streams or grow existing streams; however, significant growth in non-interest income is not expected in the near term.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense represents expenses incurred from sources other than interest-bearing liabilities. The following table presents the major components of non-interest expense for the periods indicated:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | $ Change |  |  | % Change |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | $ Change |  |  | % Change |

The Company’s non-interest expense increased by 3.5% comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The majority of the increase resulted from nonrecurring gains on the sale of properties that reduced other real/estate expense in 2022, but were not repeated in 2023. In addition, the Company has experienced increases in other categories commensurate with the inflationary environment. Increases in certain categories of non-interest expense were partially offset by decreases in other categories, most notably salaries and employee benefits which decreased by 2.3%, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2023 to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The reduction in salaries and benefits expense resulted from the impact of the strategic initiatives undertaken by the Company beginning in the third quarter of 2021 to, among other things, improve the Company’s operating efficiency. These initiatives reduced the Company’s non-interest expense profile significantly in 2022 and, in some expense areas such as salaries and benefits, continued to benefit the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2023. However, the current inflationary environment is expected to continue to put upward pressure on non-interest expenses. Accordingly, management will remain focused on efforts to streamline business processes in an effort to continue to improve the Company’s overall efficiency levels.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $1.3 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and the Company’s effective tax rate was 24.1% and 24.4%, respectively, for the same periods.

The effective tax rate is impacted by recurring items, such as changes in tax-exempt interest income earned from bank-qualified municipal bonds and loans and the cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance. Management makes decisions about whether to invest in tax-exempt instruments on a case-by-case basis after considering a number of factors, including investment return, credit quality and the consistency of such investments with the Company’s overall strategy. The Company’s effective tax rate is expected to fluctuate commensurate with the level of these investments as compared to total pre-tax income.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

Investment Securities

The investment securities portfolio is used by management to provide liquidity, to generate interest income and for use as collateral for public deposits and wholesale funding. Risk and return can be adjusted by altering the duration, composition and/or balance of the portfolio. The expected average life of securities in the investment portfolio was 3.6 years and 3.5 years as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Available-for-sale securities are recorded at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains or losses recognized, net of taxes, in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a separate component of shareholders’ equity. As of June 30, 2023, available-for-sale securities totaled $122.9 million, or 98.8% of the total investment portfolio, compared to $130.8 million, or 98.6% of the total investment portfolio, as of December 31, 2022. Available-for-sale securities consisted of residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, U.S. Treasury securities, corporate bonds, obligations of U.S. government-sponsored agencies, and obligations of state and political subdivisions.

Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost and represent securities that the Company both intends and has the ability to hold to maturity. As of June 30, 2023, held-to-maturity securities totaled $1.5 million, or 1.2% of the total investment portfolio, compared to $1.9 million, or 1.4% of the total investment portfolio, as of December 31, 2022. Held-to-maturity securities consisted of commercial mortgage-backed securities, obligations of U.S. government-sponsored agencies, and obligations of state and political subdivisions.

Due to the increasing interest rate environment, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, gross unrealized losses increased, particularly within the Company’s available-for-sale portfolio. Gross unrealized losses in the available-for-sale portfolio totaled $12.6 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $11.1 million as of December 31, 2022. Unrealized losses within the available-for-sale portfolio were recognized, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company evaluated both the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios for credit loss in accordance with the revised accounting guidance of ASC 326. Based on these evaluations, management concluded that no credit losses were included in either portfolio and that the unrealized losses in both portfolios resulted from the prevailing interest rate environment.

Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company’s total loan portfolio increased by $40.6 million, or 5.2%, as of June 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022. The tables below summarize loan balances by portfolio category, as well as the allowance for credit losses, as of the end of each of the most recent five quarters as of June 30, 2023:

The adoption of CECL was most impactful on the Company’s consumer indirect loan portfolio due primarily to the extension of the loss estimate period to the estimated life of loans in this category. As of both January 1, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the estimated average remaining life of the indirect portfolio was between four and five years. The branch retail portfolio, which represents indirect lending conducted by ALC, was similarly impacted by the transition to CECL. In addition, the Company’s consumer portfolios were impacted by current economic forecasts using data provided by the Federal Reserve on inflation, unemployment, and the forecasted movement of interest rates.

Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments

In connection with the adoption of the CECL accounting model, the Company also reserved approximately $0.3 million in other liabilities for unfunded lending commitments. Unfunded lending commitments are off-balance sheet arrangements that represent unconditional commitments of the Company to lend to a borrower that are unfunded as of the balance sheet date. These may include unfunded loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees. The CECL accounting guidance requires that an estimate of expected credit loss be measured on commitments in which an entity is exposed to credit risk via a present contractual obligation to extend credit unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the issuer. For the Company, unconditional lending commitments generally include unfunded term loan agreements, home equity lines of credit, lines of credit, and demand deposit account overdraft protection. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s reserve for unfunded commitments, which is recorded in other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, totaled $0.4 million. No reserve for unfunded commitments was recorded by the Company as of December 31, 2022.

Allocation of Allowance for Credit Losses

While no portion of the allowance for credit losses is in any way restricted to any individual loan or group of loans and the entire allowance is available to absorb losses from any and all loans, the following table shows an allocation of the allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |

Total allowance for credit losses |  | $ | 11,536 |  |  |  | 100.0 | % |  |  | 100.0 | % |  | $ | 9,422 |  |  |  | 100.0 | % |  |  | 100.0 | %

Deposits

Total deposits increased to $932.6 million as of June 30, 2023, from $870.0 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of 7.2%. Core deposits, which exclude time deposits of $250 thousand or more and all brokered deposits, provide a relatively stable funding source that supports earning assets. Core deposits totaled $785.7 million, or 84.2% of total deposits, as of June 30, 2023, compared to $778.1 million, or 89.4% of total deposits, as of December 31, 2022.

Core deposits, have historically been the Company’s primary source of funding and have enabled the Company to successfully meet both short-term and long-term liquidity needs. Management anticipates that core deposits will continue to be the Company’s primary source of funding in the future. Management will continue to monitor deposit levels closely to help ensure an adequate level of funding for the Company’s activities. However, various economic and competitive factors could affect this funding source in the future, including increased competition from other financial institutions in deposit gathering, national and local economic conditions and interest rate policies adopted by the Federal Reserve and other central banks.

57

Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities

Other interest-bearing liabilities consist of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, FHLB advances, and subordinated debt that are used by the Company as an alternative source of funds. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, other interest-bearing liabilities represented 4.6% of average interest-bearing liabilities, compared to 2.8% during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was due to an increase in the Company's usage of short-term FHLB advances during 2023 to enhance the Company’s liquidity position in the wake of banking failures that took place primarily in the first quarter of 2023.

Shareholders’ Equity

As of June 30, 2023, shareholders’ equity totaled $85.7 million, or 8.0% of total assets, compared to $85.1 million, or 8.6% of total assets, as of December 31, 2022. The increase in shareholders’ equity resulted from earnings, net of dividends paid, partially offset by the CECL transition adjustment which reduced retained earnings by $1.8 million, net of tax, as well as a net increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $1.4 million associated with fair value declines in the available-for-sale investment portfolio and reclassification adjustments associated with terminated interest rate swaps.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company declared dividends totaling $0.10 per common share, or approximately $0.6 million in aggregate amount, compared to $0.06 per common share, or approximately $0.4 million in aggregate amount, during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Bancshares’ Board of Directors evaluates dividend payments based on the Company’s level of earnings and the desire to maintain a strong capital base, as well as regulatory requirements relating to the payment of dividends.

58

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The asset portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily from the following sources: (1) excess cash and interest-bearing deposits in banks, (2) federal funds sold, (3) principal payments and maturities of loans and (4) principal payments and maturities from the investment portfolio. Loans maturing or repricing in one year or less amounted to $227.8 million as of June 30, 2023 and $212.5 million as of December 31, 2022. Investment securities forecasted to mature or reprice in one year or less were estimated to be $20.5 million and $7.1 million of the investment portfolio as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Although some securities in the investment portfolio have legal final maturities exceeding 10 years, a substantial percentage of the portfolio provides monthly principal and interest payments and consists of securities that are readily marketable and easily convertible into cash on short notice. The investment securities portfolio had an estimated average life of 3.6 years and 3.5 years as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. However, management does not rely solely upon the investment portfolio to generate cash flows to fund loans, capital expenditures, dividends, debt repayment and other cash requirements. These activities are also funded by cash flows from loan payments, as well as increases in deposits and short-term borrowings.

The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity through interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing deposit accounts, which represent the Company’s primary sources of funds. In addition, federal funds purchased, FHLB advances, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and short-term and long-term borrowings are additional sources of available liquidity. Liquidity management involves the continual monitoring of the sources and uses of funds to maintain an acceptable cash position. Long-term liquidity management focuses on considerations related to the total balance sheet structure. The Bank manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a desired deposit balance.

The Company had $30.0 million and $20.0 million of outstanding borrowings under FHLB advances as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In addition, on October 1, 2021, the Company completed a private placement of $11.0 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes that will mature on October 1, 2031. Net of unamortized debt issuance costs, the subordinated notes were recorded as long-term borrowings totaling $10.8 million and $10.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Company had up to $248.0 million and $246.8 million in remaining unused credit from the FHLB (subject to available collateral, which may include eligible investment securities and loans) as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In addition, the Company had $28.0 million and $45.0 million in unused established federal funds lines as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Company also has access to the Federal Reserve’s discount window and its Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP), the latter of which was established during the first quarter of 2023 in response to liquidity events that occurred in the banking industry. Both the discount window and the BTFP allow borrowing on pledged collateral that includes eligible investment securities and, in certain circumstances, eligible loans. The discount window allows borrowing under 90-day terms, while borrowing terms under the BTFP are up to one year. The BTFP also allows investment securities to be pledged as collateral at 100% of par value when par value is greater than fair value. Although management periodically tests the Company’s ability to access cash from the Federal Reserve, the Company had no balances outstanding under either the discount window or BTFP as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

59

RESPONSE TO RECENT LIQUIDITY EVENTS

In response to heightened liquidity concerns for the banking industry, during the first quarter of 2023, management undertook procedures designed to enhance the Company’s liquidity position, including holding higher levels of on-balance sheet cash. During the second quarter of 2023, management further enhanced on-balance sheet liquidity levels primarily through growth in unencumbered deposits. Although the liquidity events that have occurred in 2023 have strained the banking industry as a whole, the Company’s management remains confident in the stability of the Company’s core deposit base which has served as the Company’s primary funding source for many years. Excluding wholesale brokered deposits, as of June 30, 2023, the Company had over 29 thousand deposit accounts with an average balance of approximately $28.4 thousand per account. Estimated uninsured deposits (calculated as deposit amounts per deposit holder in excess of $250 thousand, the maximum amount of federal deposit insurance, and excluding deposits secured by pledged assets) totaled $161.7 million, or 17.3% of total deposits, as of June 30, 2023, compared to $148.3 million, or 17.1% of total deposits, as of December 31, 2022.

The table below provides information on the Company’s on-balance sheet liquidity, as well as readily available sources of liquidity as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

| June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |
| (Dollars in Thousands) |
| (Unaudited) |  |  | (Unaudited) |
Liquidity from cash and federal funds sold: |  |  |  |  |
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 74,668 |  |  | $ | 30,152 |
Federal funds sold |  | 721 |  |  |  | 1,768 |
Liquidity from cash and federal funds sold |  | 75,389 |  |  |  | 31,920 |
Liquidity from pledgeable investment securities: |  |  |  |  |
Investment securities available-for sale, at fair value |  | 122,933 |  |  |  | 130,795 |
Investment securities held-to-maturity, at amortized cost |  | 1,471 |  |  |  | 1,862 |
Less: securities pledged |  | (43,893 | ) |  |  | (54,717 | )
Less: estimated collateral value discounts |  | (10,653 | ) |  |  | (7,833 | )
Liquidity from pledgeable investment securities |  | 69,858 |  |  |  | 70,107 |
Liquidity from unused lendable collateral (loans) at FHLB |  | 10,996 |  |  |  | 18,215 |
Unsecured lines of credit with banks |  | 28,000 |  |  |  | 45,000 |
Total readily available liquidity | $ | 184,243 |  |  | $ | 165,242 |

The table calculates readily available sources of liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents, federal funds sold, and other liquidity sources. Certain of the measures have not been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”); however, management believes that the non-GAAP measures are beneficial to the reader as they enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s liquidity position and can be used as a supplement to GAAP-based measures of liquidity. Specifically, liquidity from pledgeable investment securities and total readily available liquidity are non-GAAP measures used by management and regulators to analyze a portion of the Company's liquidity. Pledgeable investment securities are considered by management as a readily available source of liquidity since the Company has the ability to pledge the securities with the FHLB or Federal Reserve to obtain immediate funding. Both available-for-sale and held-for-maturity securities may be pledged at fair value with the FHLB and through the Federal Reserve discount window. The amounts shown as liquidity from pledgeable investment securities represents total investment securities as recorded on the balance sheet, less reductions for securities already pledged and discounts expected to be taken by the lender to determine collateral value. The calculations are intended to reflect minimum levels of liquidity readily available to the Company through the pledging of investment securities, and do not contemplate the additional available liquidity that could be available from the Federal Reserve through the BTFP. The non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in this Quarterly Report should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes that the Company has adequate sources of liquidity to cover its contractual obligations and commitments over the next twelve months.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATI VE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary purpose of managing interest rate risk is to invest capital effectively and preserve the value created by the Company’s core banking business. This is accomplished through the development and implementation of lending, funding, pricing and hedging strategies designed to maximize net interest income performance under varying interest rate environments, subject to liquidity and interest rate risk guidelines. Effective interest rate sensitivity management ensures that both assets and liabilities respond to changes in interest rates within an acceptable timeframe, thereby minimizing the effect of such interest rate movements on short- and long-term net interest margin and net interest income.

Financial simulation models are the primary tools used by the Asset/Liability Committee of the Bank’s board of directors to measure interest rate exposure. Using a wide range of scenarios, management is provided with extensive information on the potential impact on net interest income caused by changes in interest rates. In these simulations, assumptions are made about the direction and volatility of interest rates, the slope of the yield curve and the changing composition of the Company’s balance sheet resulting from both strategic plans and customer behavior. Simulation models also incorporate management’s assumptions regarding such factors as loan and deposit growth, pricing, prepayment speeds and spreads between interest rates paid on deposits and charged on loans. Because of limitations inherent in any approach used to measure interest rate risk, simulation results are not intended as a forecast of the actual effect of a change in market interest rates on our results but rather as a means to better plan and execute appropriate asset-liability management strategies and manage our interest rate risk.

Assessing Short-Term Interest Rate Risk – Net Interest Margin Simulation

On a quarterly basis, management simulates how changes in short- and long-term interest rates will impact future profitability, as reflected by changes in the Bank’s net interest margin and net interest income. The tables below depict how, as of June 30, 2023, pre-tax net interest margin and net interest income are forecasted to change over timeframes of one year and two years under the six listed interest rate scenarios. The interest rate scenarios contemplate immediate and parallel shifts in short- and long-term interest rates.

Average Change in Net Interest Margin from Level Interest Rate Forecast (basis points, pre-tax):

|  | 1 Year |  |  | 2 Years |
+1% |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | 5 |
+2% |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | 5 |
+3% |  |  | (8 | ) |  |  | (7 | )
-1% |  |  | (8 | ) |  |  | (8 | )
-2% |  |  | (20 | ) |  |  | (22 | )
-3% |  |  | (33 | ) |  |  | (36 | )

Cumulative Change in Net Interest Income from Level Interest Rate Forecast (dollars in thousands, pre-tax):

|  | 1 Year |  |  | 2 Years |
+1% |  | $ | 516 |  |  | $ | 1,095 |
+2% |  |  | 516 |  |  |  | 1,108 |

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Bancshares maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Bancshares’ reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to Bancshares’ management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Bancshares’ management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Bancshares’ disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2023, pursuant to the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, Bancshares’ management concluded, as of June 30, 2023, that Bancshares’ disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in Bancshares’ periodic filings with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in Bancshares’ internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is a party to certain ordinary course litigation, and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all such litigation. In the opinion of the Company, based on review and consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such ordinary course litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

A list of factors that could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition and/or operating results is included in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Company's 2022 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to such risk factors, except as set forth below. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, such as recent bank failures or concerns involving liquidity, may have a material effect on the Company’s operations.

Recent events relating to the failures of certain banking entities in March and April 2023, including Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank, have caused general uncertainty and concern regarding the liquidity adequacy of the banking sector as a whole. Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty, or other relationships. We have exposure to many different counterparties, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including brokers and dealers, banks, investment banks, mutual funds, and other institutional entities. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, have led to market-wide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or client. Any such losses could be material and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we anticipate increased regulatory scrutiny and new regulations directed towards regional banks, and potentially community banks of similar size to us, designed to address the recent negative developments in the banking industry, all of which may increase our costs of doing business and reduce our profitability. In addition, the cost of resolving recent bank failures may prompt the FDIC to increase its premium above the recently increased levels or to issue additional special assessments.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUI TY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The following table sets forth purchases made by or on behalf of Bancshares or any “affiliated purchaser,” as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) of the Exchange Act, of shares of Bancshares’ common stock during the second quarter of 2023:
