AMERIS BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2022
 
 i 
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 i 
Nature of Business

Ameris Bancorp (the “Company” or “Ameris”) is a financial holding company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Ameris conducts substantially all of its operations through its wholly owned banking subsidiary, Ameris Bank (the “Bank”). At June 30, 2022, the Bank operated  i 164 branches in select markets in Georgia, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina. Our business model capitalizes on the efficiencies of a large financial services company, while still providing the community with the personalized banking service expected by our customers. We manage our Bank through a balance of decentralized management responsibilities and efficient centralized operating systems, products and loan underwriting standards. The Company’s Board of Directors and senior managers establish corporate policy, strategy and administrative policies. Within our established guidelines and policies, the banker closest to the customer responds to the differing needs and demands of his or her unique market.
 / 

 i 
Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Ameris have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statement presentation. The interim consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited but reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 i Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash items in process of collection, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in banks, federal funds sold and restricted cash. Restricted cash held for securitization investors, which are reported on the Company's consolidated balance sheets in cash and due from banks, was $ i 0 and $ i 43.0 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 i Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform with the current year presentations. The reclassifications had no effect on net income or shareholders' equity as previously reported.

 i 
Accounting Standards Pending Adoption

ASU No. 2022-02 – Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures ("ASU 2022-02"). ASU 2022-02 eliminates the troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") measurement and recognition guidance and requires that entities evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan consistent with the accounting for other loan modifications. Additional disclosures relating to modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are required under ASU 2022-02. ASU 2022-02 also requires disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. ASU 2022-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments of ASU 2022-02 should be adopted prospectively. The amendments related to the recognition and measurement of TDRs may optionally be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method.

Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the consolidated financial statements of adopting ASU 2022-02.

ASU No. 2021-01 – Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope ("ASU 2021-01"). ASU 2021-01 clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. ASU 2021-01 also amends the expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 to capture the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and to tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition. Because the guidance is intended to assist stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period, it is in effect for a limited time, from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the consolidated financial statements of adopting ASU 2021-01.

ASU No. 2020-04 – Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance, for a limited time, to ease the potential burden in accounting for or recognizing the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments, which are elective, provide expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate that is expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The optional expedients for contract modifications apply consistently for all contracts or transactions within the relevant Codification Topic, Subtopic, or Industry Subtopic that contains the guidance that otherwise would be required to be applied, while those for hedging relationships can be elected on an individual hedging relationship basis. Because the guidance is intended to assist stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period, it is in effect for a limited time, from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has established a working committee with representatives from relevant functional areas to inventory the contracts and accounts that are tied to LIBOR and develop a transition plan for the affected items. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the consolidated financial statements of adopting ASU 2020-04.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s held-to-maturity security portfolio consisted of  i 19 securities,  i 19 of which were in an unrealized loss position. At June 30, 2022, the Company held  i 13 mortgage-backed securities and  i six state, county and municipal securities that were in an unrealized loss position.

During 2022 and 2021, the Company received timely and current interest and principal payments on all of the securities classified as corporate debt securities. The Company’s investments in subordinated debt include investments in regional and super-regional banks on which the Company prepares regular analysis through review of financial information and credit ratings. Investments in preferred securities are also concentrated in the preferred obligations of regional and super-regional banks through non-pooled investment structures. The Company did not have investments in “pooled” trust preferred securities at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all of the Company’s mortgage-backed securities were obligations of government-sponsored agencies.

Management and the Company’s Asset and Liability Committee (the “ALCO Committee”) evaluate available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation, to determine if credit-related impairment exists. Management first evaluates whether they intend to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell an impaired security before recovering its amortized cost basis. If either criteria is met, the entire amount of unrealized loss is recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security's amortized cost basis. If either of the above criteria is not met, management evaluates whether the decline in fair value is attributable to credit or resulted from other factors. The Company does not intend to sell these available-for-sale investment securities at an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2022, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery or maturity. Based on the results of management's review, at June 30, 2022, management determined that $ i 88,000 was attributable to credit impairment and an allowance for credit losses was recorded.  i The remaining $ i 16.7 million in unrealized loss was determined to be from factors other than credit. /

The Company recorded an allowance for credit losses of $ i 0 and $ i 214,000 related to deferred interest on loans modified under its Disaster Relief Program at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Nonaccrual and Past-Due Loans

A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when, in management’s judgment, the collection of the interest income appears doubtful. Interest receivable that has been accrued and is subsequently determined to have doubtful collectability is charged to interest income. Interest on loans that are classified as nonaccrual is subsequently applied to principal until the loans are returned to accrual status. The Company’s loan policy states that a nonaccrual loan may be returned to accrual status when (i) none of its principal and interest is due and unpaid, and the Company expects repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest, or (ii) it otherwise becomes well secured and in the process of collection. Restoration to accrual status on any given loan must be supported by a well-documented credit evaluation of the borrower’s financial condition and the prospects for full repayment, approved by the Company’s Chief Credit Officer. Past-due loans are loans whose principal or interest is past due 30 days or more. In some cases, where borrowers are experiencing financial difficulties, loans may be restructured to provide terms significantly different from the original contractual terms.

Collateral-Dependent Loans

Collateral-dependent loans are loans where repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. If the Company determines that foreclosure is probable, these loans are written down to the lower of cost or fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the present value of expected cash flows from the operation of the collateral. The Company may, in the alternative, measure the allowance for credit loss as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the estimated fair value of the collateral.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company uses a nine category risk grading system to assign a risk grade to each loan in the portfolio. The following is a description of the general characteristics of the grades:

Pass (Grades 1 - 5) – These grades represent acceptable credit risk to the Company based on factors including creditworthiness of the borrower, current performance and nature of the collateral.

Other Assets Especially Mentioned (Grade 6) – This grade includes loans that exhibit potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard (Grade 7) – This grade represents loans which are inadequately protected by the current credit worthiness and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. These assets exhibit a well-defined weakness or are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. These weaknesses may be characterized by past due performance, operating losses or questionable collateral values.

Doubtful (Grade 8) – This grade includes loans which exhibit all of the characteristics of a substandard loan with the added provision that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable or improbable.

Loss (Grade 9) – This grade is assigned to loans which are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as active assets of the Bank is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing it off.

 i The following tables present the loan portfolio's amortized cost by class of financing receivable, risk grade and year of origination (in thousands) as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Generally, current period renewals of credit are underwritten again at the point of renewal and considered current period originations for purposes of the tables below. The Company had an immaterial amount of revolving loans which converted to term loans and the amortized cost basis of those loans is included in the applicable origination year. There were  i  i no /  loans risk graded 9 at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. /

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The restructuring of a loan is considered a “troubled debt restructuring” if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the Company has granted a concession. Concessions may include interest rate reductions to below market
17


interest rates, principal forgiveness, restructuring amortization schedules and other actions intended to minimize potential losses.

The Company’s policy requires a restructure request to be supported by a current, well-documented credit evaluation of the borrower’s financial condition and a collateral evaluation that is no older than six months from the date of the restructure. Key factors of that evaluation include the documentation of current, recurring cash flows, support provided by the guarantor(s) and the current valuation of the collateral. If the appraisal in the file is older than six months, an evaluation must be made as to the continued reasonableness of the valuation. For certain income-producing properties, current rent rolls and/or other income information can be utilized to support the appraisal valuation, when coupled with documented cap rates within our markets and a physical inspection of the collateral to validate the current condition.

The Company’s policy states that in the event a loan has been identified as a troubled debt restructuring, it should be assigned a grade of substandard until such time the borrower has demonstrated the ability to service the loan payments based on the restructured terms – generally defined as six months of satisfactory payment history. Missed payments under the original loan terms are not considered under the new structure; however, subsequent missed payments are considered non-performance and are not considered toward the six month required term of satisfactory payment history.

In the normal course of business, the Company modifies loans with a modification of the interest rate or terms that are not deemed to be troubled debt restructurings because the borrower is not experiencing financial difficulty. The Company modified loans in the first six months of 2022 and 2021 totaling $ i 214.8 million and $ i 220.8 million, respectively, under such parameters.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a balance of $ i 41.8 million and $ i 76.6 million, respectively, in troubled debt restructurings. The Company has recorded $ i 698,000 and $ i 654,000 in previous charge-offs on such loans at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company’s balance in the allowance for credit losses allocated to such troubled debt restructurings was $ i 2.5 million and $ i 10.5 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022, the Company did not have any commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose terms have been modified in troubled restructurings.

The following table presents the loans by class modified as troubled debt restructurings which occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. These modifications did not have a material impact on the Company’s allowance for credit losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

The allowance for credit losses represents an allowance for expected losses over the remaining contractual life of the assets. The contractual term does not consider extensions, renewals or modifications unless the Company reasonably expects to execute a troubled debt restructuring with a borrower. The Company segregates the loan portfolio by type of loan and utilizes this segregation in evaluating exposure to risks within the portfolio.

Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the collection of a loan’s principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance. Consumer loans are charged off in accordance with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council’s (the “FFIEC”) Uniform Retail Credit Classification and Account Management Policy. Commercial loans are charged off when they are deemed uncollectible, which usually involves a triggering event within the collection effort. If the loan is collateral dependent, the loss is more easily identified and is charged off when it is identified, usually based upon receipt of an appraisal. However, when a loan has guarantor support, the Company may carry the estimated loss as a reserve against the loan while collection efforts with the guarantor are pursued. If, after collection efforts with the guarantor are complete, the deficiency is still considered uncollectible, the loss is charged off and any further collections are
19


treated as recoveries. In all situations, when a loan is downgraded to an Asset Quality Rating of 9 (Loss per the regulatory guidance), the uncollectible portion is charged off.

The Company’s methodologies for estimating the allowance for credit losses consider available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The methodologies apply historical loss information, adjusted for asset-specific characteristics, economic conditions at the measurement date, and forecasts about future economic conditions expected to exist through the contractual lives of the financial assets that are reasonable and supportable, to the identified pools of loans with similar risk characteristics for which the historical loss experience was observed. The Company utilizes a one year reasonable and supportable forecast period. The Company’s methodologies revert back to historical loss information on a straight-line basis over four quarters after the reasonable and supportable forecast period.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the allowance for credit losses increased due to organic loan growth, partially offset by improvement in forecasted macroeconomic factors. The allowance for credit losses was determined at June 30, 2022 using a weighting of four economic forecasts from Moody's. The Moody's Consensus scenario was weighted at 20%, the downside 75th percentile S-2 scenario was weighted at 30%, the downside 90th percentile S-3 scenario was weighted at 20%, and the stagflation scenario was weighted at 30%. The allowance for credit losses was determined at December 31, 2021 using a weighting of five economic forecasts from Moody's. The Moody's baseline scenario was weighted at 10%, the downside 75th percentile S-2 scenario was weighted at 10%, the downside 90th percentile S-3 scenario was weighted at 50%, the slower trend growth scenario was weighted at 20% and the stagflation scenario was weighted at 10%. The current forecast reflects, among other things, improvements in forecast levels of home prices, commercial real estate prices and unemployment compared with the forecast at December 31, 2021.

The following tables detail activity and end of period balances in the allowance for credit losses by portfolio segment for the periods indicated. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

NOTE 4 – SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE

The Company classifies the sales of securities under agreements to repurchase as short-term borrowings. The amounts received under these agreements are reflected as a liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and the securities underlying these agreements are included in investment securities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all securities sold under agreements to repurchase mature on a daily basis. The market value of the securities fluctuates on a daily basis due to market conditions. The Company monitors the market value of the securities underlying these agreements on a daily basis and is required to transfer additional securities if the market value falls below the repurchase agreement price. The Company maintains an unpledged securities portfolio that it believes is sufficient to protect against a decline in the market value of the securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

 i 
The following is a summary of the Company’s securities sold under agreements to repurchase at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE MEASURES

The fair value of an asset or liability is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various assets and liabilities. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not
24


be realized in an immediate settlement of the asset or liability. The accounting standard for disclosures about the fair value measures excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

 i 
The Company's loans held for sale under the fair value option are comprised of the following:

(dollars in thousands)June 30, 2022December 31, 2021
Mortgage loans held for sale$ i 555,039 $ i 1,247,997 
SBA loans held for sale i 626  i 6,635 
Total loans held for sale$ i 555,665 $ i 1,254,632 
 / 

The Company has elected to record mortgage loans held for sale at fair value in order to eliminate the complexities and inherent difficulties of achieving hedge accounting and to better align reported results with the underlying economic changes in value of the loans and related hedge instruments. This election impacts the timing and recognition of origination fees and costs, as well as servicing value, which are now recognized in earnings at the time of origination. Interest income on mortgage loans held for sale is recorded on an accrual basis in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income under the heading interest income – interest and fees on loans. The servicing value is included in the fair value of the interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) with borrowers. The mark to market adjustments related to mortgage loans held for sale and the associated economic hedges are captured in mortgage banking activities.

A net gain of $ i 11.2 million and a net loss of $ i 32.7 million resulting from changes in fair value of these mortgage loans was recorded in income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, a net gain of $ i 10.0 million and a net loss of $ i 15.1 million, respectively, resulting from changes in fair value of these mortgage loans was recorded in income. A net losses of $ i 27.1 million and $ i 1.2 million, respectively, resulting from changes in the fair value of the related derivative financial instruments used to hedge exposure to the market-related risks associated with these mortgage loans was recorded in income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, net losses of $ i 45.1 million and $ i 17.6 million, respectively, resulting from changes in the fair value of the related derivative financial instruments was recorded in income. The changes in fair value of both mortgage loans held for sale and the related derivative financial instruments are recorded in mortgage banking activity in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company’s valuation of mortgage loans held for sale incorporates an assumption for credit risk; however, given the short-term period that the Company holds these loans, valuation adjustments attributable to instrument-specific credit risk is nominal.

The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available-for-sale, loans held for sale under the fair value option and derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. From time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair
25


value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as collateral-dependent loans, loan servicing rights and OREO. Additionally, the Company is required to disclose, but not record, the fair value of other financial instruments.

 i 
The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Loan Commitments

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. They involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Company’s balance sheets.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.  i A summary of the Company’s commitments is as follows:

(dollars in thousands)June 30, 2022December 31, 2021
Commitments to extend credit$ i 5,420,227 $ i 4,328,749 
Unused home equity lines of credit i 303,428  i 272,029 
Financial standby letters of credit i 30,272  i 36,184 
Mortgage interest rate lock commitments i 320,320  i 417,126 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. These commitments, predominantly at variable interest rates, 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
 / 
28


drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. Collateral is required in instances which the Company deems necessary. The Company has not been required to perform on any material financial standby letters of credit and the Company has not incurred any losses on financial standby letters of credit for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments which is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.  i The following table presents activity in the allowance for unfunded commitments for the periods presented:

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

Other Commitments

As of June 30, 2022, letters of credit issued by the FHLB totaling $ i 400.0 million were used to guarantee the Bank’s performance related to a portion of its public fund deposit balances.

Litigation and Regulatory Contingencies

From time to time, the Company and the Bank are subject to various legal proceedings, claims and disputes that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company and the Bank are also subject to regulatory examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries and investigations in the ordinary course of business. Based on the Company’s current knowledge and advice of counsel, management presently does not believe that the liabilities arising from these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these legal matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition for any particular period.

The Company’s management and its legal counsel periodically assess contingent liabilities, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant and unprecedented economic dislocation in the United States. As a result of the pandemic, many commercial customers experienced varying levels of disruptions or restrictions on their business activities, and many consumers experienced interrupted income or unemployment. We have outstanding loans to borrowers in certain industries that have been particularly susceptible to the effects of the pandemic, such as hotels, restaurants and other retail businesses. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it remains difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business. The United States government has taken steps to attempt to mitigate some of the more severe anticipated economic effects of the pandemic, including the passage of the CARES Act and subsequent legislation, but
29


there can be no assurance that such steps will be sufficiently effective or achieve their desired results on a long-term basis. The extent of such impact from the COVID-19 pandemic and related mitigation efforts will depend on future developments, which remain uncertain, including, but not limited to, the potential for a resurgence or additional waves or variants of the coronavirus, actions to contain or treat the virus and how quickly normal economic and operating conditions resume in a sustainable manner. This could cause a material, adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, including increases in loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures; decreases in the value of collateral securing our loans; increases in our allowance for credit losses; and decreases in the value of our intangible assets.

NOTE 10 – SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has the following  i five reportable segments: Banking Division, Retail Mortgage Division, Warehouse Lending Division, SBA Division and Premium Finance Division. The Banking Division derives its revenues from the delivery of full-service financial services, including commercial loans, consumer loans and deposit accounts. The Retail Mortgage Division derives its revenues from the origination, sales and servicing of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. The Warehouse Lending Division derives its revenues from the origination and servicing of warehouse lines to other businesses that are secured by underlying one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. The SBA Division derives its revenues from the origination, sales and servicing of SBA loans. The Premium Finance Division derives its revenues from the origination and servicing of commercial insurance premium finance loans.

The Banking, Retail Mortgage, Warehouse Lending, SBA and Premium Finance Divisions are managed as separate business units because of the different products and services they provide. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on profit or loss from operations. There are no material intersegment sales or transfers.

NOTE 11 – LOAN SERVICING RIGHTS

The Company sells certain residential mortgage loans and SBA loans to third parties. All such transfers are accounted for as sales and the continuing involvement in the loans sold is limited to certain servicing responsibilities. The Company has also acquired portfolios of residential mortgage, SBA and indirect automobile loans serviced for others. Loan servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently recorded at the lower of cost or fair value and are amortized over the remaining service life of the loans, with consideration given to prepayment assumptions. Loan servicing rights are recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

 i 
The carrying value of the loan servicing rights assets is shown in the table below:

Residential Mortgage Loans

The Company sells certain first-lien residential mortgage loans to third party investors, primarily the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”). The Company retains the related mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) and receives servicing fees on certain of these loans. The net gain on loan sales, MSRs amortization and recoveries/impairment, and ongoing servicing fees on the portfolio of loans serviced for others are recorded in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as part of mortgage banking activity.

During the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded servicing fee income of $ i 18.7 million and $ i 35.8 million, respectively. During the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded servicing fee income of $ i 11.3 million and $ i 21.5 million, respectively. Servicing fee income includes servicing fees, late fees and ancillary fees earned for each period.

The sensitivity calculations above are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future performance. As indicated, changes in fair value based on adverse changes in model inputs and/or assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of a change in input or assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. In addition, the effect of an adverse variation in a particular input or assumption on the value of the residential mortgage servicing rights is calculated without changing any other input or assumption. In reality, a change in another factor may magnify or counteract the effect of the change in the first.

SBA Loans

All sales of SBA loans, consisting of the guaranteed portion, are executed on a servicing retained basis. These loans, which are partially guaranteed by the SBA, are generally secured by business property such as real estate, inventory, equipment and accounts receivable. The net gain on SBA loan sales, amortization and impairment/recoveries of servicing rights, and ongoing servicing fees are recorded in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as part of other noninterest income.

Indirect Automobile Loans

The Company previously acquired a portfolio of indirect automobile loans serviced for others. These loans, or portions of loans, were sold on a servicing retained basis. Amortization and impairment/recoveries of servicing rights, and ongoing servicing fees are recorded in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as part of other noninterest income. The Company is not actively originating or selling indirect automobile loans.

Overview

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected the financial condition and results of operations of the Company as reflected in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022, as compared with December 31, 2021, and operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. These comments should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere herein.

This discussion contains certain performance measures determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Management of the Company uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures are useful when evaluating the underlying performance and efficiency of the Company’s operations and balance sheet. The Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results with prior periods and demonstrate the effects of significant gains and charges in the current period. The Company’s management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company’s financial performance without the impact of unusual items that may obscure trends in the Company’s underlying performance. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Non-GAAP measures include adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share. The Company calculates the regulatory capital ratios using current regulatory report instructions. The Company’s management uses these measures to assess the quality of capital and believes that investors may find them useful in their evaluation of the Company. These capital measures may or may not be necessarily comparable to similar capital measures that may be presented by other companies.

On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for the second quarter of 2022 was $192.3 million, an increase of $29.3 million, or 18.0%, compared with $163.0 million reported in the same quarter in 2021. The higher net interest income is primarily a result of growth in investment securities and loans complemented by disciplined deposit repricing. Average interest earning assets increased $1.46 billion, or 7.5%, from $19.59 billion in the second quarter of 2021 to $21.06 billion for the second quarter of 2022. This growth in interest earning assets resulted primarily from organic loan growth, loans acquired from Balboa Capital and excess liquidity from deposit growth. The Company’s net interest margin during the second quarter of 2022 was 3.66%, up 32 basis points from 3.34% reported in the second quarter of 2021. Loan production in the lines of business (including retail mortgage, warehouse lending, SBA and premium finance) amounted to $5.3 billion during the second quarter of 2022, with weighted average yields of 4.29%, compared with $6.4 billion and 3.36%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2021. Loan production in the banking division amounted to $1.1 billion during the second quarter of 2022, with weighted average yields of 5.24%, compared with $911.3 million and 3.75%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2021.

Total interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased to $203.5 million during the second quarter of 2022, compared with $174.9 million in the same quarter of 2021.  Yields on earning assets increased to 3.88% during the second quarter of 2022, compared with 3.58% reported in the second quarter of 2021. During the second quarter of 2022, loans comprised 84.6% of average earning assets, compared with 83.0% in the same quarter of 2021. Yields on loans decreased to 4.32% in the second quarter of 2022, compared with 4.33% in the same period of 2021. Accretion income for the second quarter of 2022 was negative $379,000, compared with $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2021.

The yield on total interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 0.41% in the second quarter of 2021 to 0.37% in the second quarter of 2022. Total funding costs, inclusive of noninterest-bearing demand deposits, decreased to 0.22% in the second quarter of 2022, compared with 0.26% during the second quarter of 2021. Deposit costs decreased from 0.13% in the second quarter of 2021 to 0.10% in the second quarter of 2022. Non-deposit funding costs increased from 4.41% in the second quarter of 2021 to 4.55% in the second quarter of 2022.

Provision for Credit Losses

The Company’s provision for credit losses during the second quarter of 2022 amounted to $14.9 million, compared with a provision of $142,000 in the second quarter of 2021. This increase was attributable to organic growth in loans during the quarter. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2022 was comprised of $13.2 million related to loans, $1.8 million related to unfunded commitments and negative $82,000 related to other credit losses, compared with negative $899,000 related to loans, $1.3 million related to unfunded commitments and negative $258,000 related to other credit losses for the second quarter of 2021. Non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets increased from 0.43% at December 31, 2021 to 0.56% at June 30, 2022. The increase in non-performing assets is primarily attributable to an increase in nonaccruing loans as a result of rebooked GNMA loans, which the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase, and one commercial real estate loan totaling $10.4 million. The Company recognized net charge-offs on loans during the second quarter of 2022 of approximately $1.8 million, or 0.04% of average loans on an annualized basis, compared with net charge-offs of approximately $2.6 million, or 0.07%, in the second quarter of 2021. The Company’s total allowance for credit losses on loans at June 30, 2022 was $172.6 million, or 0.98% of total loans, compared with $167.6 million, or 1.06% of total loans, at December 31, 2021. This increase is primarily attributable to organic growth in loans, partially offset by improvement in forecast economic conditions.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income for the second quarter of 2022 was $83.8 million, a decrease of $5.4 million, or 6.0%, from the $89.2 million reported in the second quarter of 2021.  Income from mortgage banking activities was $58.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $11.5 million, or 16.3%, from $70.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. Total production in the second quarter of 2022 amounted to $1.73 billion, compared with $2.39 billion in the same quarter of 2021, while spread (gain on sale) decreased to 2.36% in the current quarter, compared with 2.77% in the same quarter of 2021. The retail mortgage open pipeline finished the second quarter of 2022 at $832.3 million, compared with $1.41 billion at March 31, 2022 and $1.75 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2021. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $141,000, or 1.3%, to $11.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $11.0 million in the second quarter of 2021. This increase in service charges on deposit accounts is due primarily to an increase in volume, particularly in business accounts.

Other noninterest income increased $5.7 million, or 82.7%, to $12.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $6.9 million during the second quarter of 2021. The increase in other noninterest income was primarily attributable to fee income from Balboa of $5.3 million and an increase in BOLI income of $614,000, partially offset by a decrease in gains on sales of SBA loans of $1.1 million.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2022 increased $6.4 million, or 4.7%, to $142.2 million, compared with $135.8 million in the same quarter 2021. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $4.0 million, or 4.6%, from $85.5 million in the second quarter of 2021 to $81.5 million in the second quarter of 2022, due primarily to decreases in variable compensation tied to mortgage production of $11.4 million, partially offset by salaries and employee benefits related to Balboa of $10.9 million. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $1.9 million, or 17.9%, to $12.7 million for the second quarter of 2022,
40


compared with $10.8 million in the second quarter of 2021, due primarily to additional expenses related to Balboa and an increase in real estate taxes. Data processing and communications expenses increased $278,000, or 2.3%, to $12.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $11.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. Advertising and marketing expense was $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily related to a new marketing campaign. Amortization of intangible assets increased $1.1 million, or 26.5%, from $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2021 to $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. This increase was primarily related to intangibles from the acquisition of Balboa Capital Corporation in December 2021, partially offset by a reduction in core deposit intangible amortization. Loan servicing expenses increased $5.0 million, or 101.9%, from $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2021 to $9.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily attributable to additional mortgage loans serviced resulting from strong mortgage production over the previous year. Other noninterest expenses increased $1.0 million, or 6.5%, from $16.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 to $17.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, due primarily to an increase of $1.2 million in legal fees and an increase in insurance expense to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") of $385,000. These increases in other noninterest expenses were partially offset by a decrease in problem loan expenses of $125,000 resulting from an increase in net gains on OREO.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense is influenced by the statutory rate, the amount of taxable income, the amount of tax-exempt income and the amount of nondeductible expenses.  For the second quarter of 2022, the Company reported income tax expense of $28.0 million, compared with $26.9 million in the same period of 2021. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ending June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 23.7% and 23.3%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily a result of increased state taxes in the second quarter of 2022 resulting from shifts in apportionment related to the Balboa Capital acquisition.

On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $365.9 million, an increase of $36.7 million, or 11.2%, compared with $329.2 million reported in the same period of 2021. The higher net interest income is a result of growth in average earning assets and disciplined deposit pricing. Average interest earning assets increased $1.81 billion, or 9.4%, from $19.23 billion in the first six months of 2021 to $21.04 billion for the first six months of 2022. This growth in interest earning assets resulted primarily from organic growth in average loans and loans acquired from Balboa Capital. The Company’s net interest margin during the first six months of 2022 was 3.51%, up six basis points from 3.45% reported for the first six months of 2021. Loan production in the lines of business (including retail mortgage, warehouse lending, SBA and premium finance) amounted to $10.0 billion during the first six months of 2022, with weighted average yields of 3.98%, compared with $13.9 billion and 3.25%, respectively, during the first six months of 2021. Loan production yields in the lines of business were negatively impacted seven basis points during the first six months of 2021 by originations of Paycheck Protection Program loans in our SBA division. Loan production in the banking division amounted to $1.9 billion during the first six months of 2022 with weighted average yields of 5.21%, compared with $1.5 billion and 3.77%, respectively, during the first six months of 2021.

Total interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased to $387.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared with $354.0 million in the same period of 2021. Yields on earning assets increased to 3.72% during the first six months of 2022, compared with 3.71% reported in the same period of 2021. During the first six months of 2022, loans comprised 82.5% of average earning assets, compared with 83.2% in the same period of 2021. Yields on loans decreased to
44


4.34% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared with 4.43% in the same period of 2021. Accretion income for the first six months of 2022 was $627,000, compared with $10.6 million in the first six months of 2021.

The yield on total interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 0.44% during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 0.37% in the same period of 2022. Total funding costs, inclusive of noninterest-bearing demand deposits, decreased to 0.22% in the first six months of 2022, compared with 0.28% during the same period of 2021. Deposit costs decreased from 0.14% in the first six months of 2021 to 0.09% in the same period of 2022. Non-deposit funding costs increased from 4.44% in the first six months of 2021 to 4.47% in the same period of 2022. The increase in non-deposit funding costs was driven primarily by an increase in index rates. Average balances of interest bearing deposits and their respective costs for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are shown below:

Provision for Credit Losses
 
The Company’s provision for credit losses during the six months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $21.2 million, compared with negative $28.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to organic growth in loans during the first six months of 2022 and a release of reserves in the six months ended June 30, 2021 which resulted from an improved economic forecast, particularly levels of unemployment, home prices and gross domestic product. The provision for credit losses for the first six months of 2022 was comprised of $10.5 million related to loans, $10.8 million related to unfunded commitments and negative $126,000 related to other credit losses compared with negative $17.5 million related to loans, negative $10.5 million related to unfunded commitments and negative $431,000 related to other credit losses for the same period in 2021. Non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets increased from 0.43% at December 31, 2021 to 0.56% at June 30, 2022. The increase in non-performing assets is primarily attributable to an increase in nonaccruing loans as a result of rebooked GNMA loans, which the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase, and one commercial real estate loan totaling $10.4 million. Net charge-offs on loans during the first six months of 2022 were $5.4 million, or 0.07% of average loans on an annualized basis, compared with approximately $6.9 million, or 0.10%, in the first six months of 2021. The Company’s total allowance for credit losses on loans at June 30, 2022 was $172.6 million, or 0.98% of total loans, compared with $167.6 million, or 1.06% of total loans, at December 31, 2021. This increase is primarily attributable to organic growth in loans, partially offset by improvement in forecast economic conditions.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $170.8 million, a decrease of $36.5 million, or 17.6%, from the $207.2 million reported for the six months ended June 30, 2021.  Income from mortgage banking activities decreased $47.0 million, or 27.9%, from $168.7 million in the first six months of 2021 to $121.7 million in the same period of 2022. Total production in the first six months of 2022 amounted to $3.26 billion, compared with $5.03 billion in the same period of 2021, while spread (gain on sale) decreased to 2.63% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared with 3.39% in the same period of 2021. The retail mortgage open pipeline was $832.3 million at June 30, 2022, compared with $1.62 billion at December 31, 2021 and $1.75 billion at June 30, 2021. Mortgage-related activities was positively impacted during the first six months of 2022 by a recovery of previous mortgage servicing right impairment of $20.5 million, compared with a recovery of $11.4 million for the same period in 2021.

Other noninterest income increased $10.1 million, or 69.1%, to $24.7 million for the first six months of 2022, compared with $14.6 million during the same period of 2021. The increase in other noninterest income was primarily attributable to an increase in fee income from Balboa Capital of $9.0 million, an increase in BOLI income of $1.6 million and an increase in trust income of $473,000, partially offset by a decrease of $603,000 in gain on BOLI proceeds.
45



Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased $1.5 million, or 0.5%, to $286.0 million, compared with $284.6 million in the same period of 2021. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $15.7 million, or 8.6%, from $181.5 million in the first six months of 2021 to $165.8 million in the same period of 2022 due primarily to decreases in variable compensation tied to mortgage production and overtime in our mortgage division of $27.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in salaries and employee benefits related to Balboa Capital of $17.6 million. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $2.9 million, or 12.7%, to $25.5 million for the first six months of 2022, compared with $22.6 million in the same period of 2021, due primarily to the addition of Balboa Capital and an increase in real estate taxes. Data processing and communications expenses increased $966,000, or 4.1%, to $24.7 million in the first six months of 2022, from $23.8 million reported in the same period of 2021. Credit resolution-related expenses decreased $1.6 million, or 140.1%, from $1.2 million in the first six months of 2021 to negative $469,000 in the same period of 2022. This decrease in credit resolution-related expenses primarily resulted from an increase in gain on sale of OREO properties of $1.2 million. Advertising and marketing expense was $5.1 million in the first six months of 2022, compared with $3.4 million in the first six months of 2021. Amortization of intangible assets increased $2.1 million, or 26.1%, from $8.2 million in the first six months of 2021 to $10.3 million in the first six months of 2022. This increase was primarily related to amortization of intangibles from the acquisition of Balboa Capital Corporation in December 2021, partially offset by a reduction in core deposit intangible amortization. There were $977,000 in merger and conversion charges in the first six months of 2022, compared with none in the same period in 2021. Loan servicing expenses increased $8.0 million, or 74.2%, from $10.8 million in the first six months of 2021 to $18.8 million in the same period of 2022, primarily attributable to additional mortgage loans serviced resulting from strong mortgage production over the previous year. Other noninterest expenses increased $2.0 million, or 6.2%, from $33.2 million in the first six months of 2021 to $35.2 million in the same period of 2022, due primarily to an increase of $2.9 million in legal fees and an increase of $1.3 million in FDIC insurance expense. These increases in other noninterest expenses were partially offset by decreases in other losses of $569,000 and variable expenses tied to production in our mortgage division.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense is influenced by the statutory rate, the amount of taxable income, the amount of tax-exempt income and the amount of nondeductible expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company reported income tax expense of $55.7 million, compared with $64.6 million in the same period of 2021. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 24.5% and 23.3%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily a result of a discrete charge to the Company's state tax liability and nondeductible merger and conversion charges incurred during the first six months of 2022.

Financial Condition as of June 30, 2022

Securities

Debt securities classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of the related deferred tax effect. Securities available-for-sale may be bought and sold in response to changes in market conditions, including, but not limited to, fluctuations in interest rates, changes in securities' prepayment risk, increases in loan demand, general liquidity needs and positioning the portfolio to take advantage of market conditions that create more economically attractive returns. Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity based on management's positive intent and ability to hold such securities to maturity and are carried at amortized cost. Restricted equity securities are classified as other investment securities and are carried at cost and are periodically evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recovery of par value or cost basis.

The amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recognized in interest income using methods approximating the interest method over the expected life of the securities. Realized gains and losses, determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are included in earnings on the trade date. 

Management and the Company’s ALCO Committee evaluate available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation, to determine if credit-related impairment exists. Management first evaluates whether they intend to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell an impaired security before recovering its amortized cost basis. If either criteria is met, the entire amount of unrealized loss is recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security's amortized cost basis. If either of the above criteria is not met, management evaluates whether the decline in fair value is attributable to credit or resulted from other factors. If credit-related impairment exists, the Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses, limited to the amount by which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment not recognized through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax, as a non credit-related impairment. The Company does not intend to sell these available-for-sale investment securities at an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2022, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery or maturity. Based on the results of management's review, at June 30, 2022, management determined that $88,000 was attributable to credit impairment and, accordingly, an allowance for credit losses was established. The remaining $16.7 million in unrealized loss was determined to be from factors other than credit.

The Company's held-to-maturity securities have no expected credit losses, and no related allowance for credit losses has been established.

Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses

At June 30, 2022, gross loans outstanding (including loans and loans held for sale) were $18.12 billion, up $987.8 million from $17.13 billion reported at December 31, 2021. Loans increased $1.69 billion, or 10.6%, from $15.87 billion at December 31, 2021 to $17.56 billion at June 30, 2022, driven primarily by organic growth. Loans held for sale decreased from $1.25 billion at December 31, 2021 to $555.7 million at June 30, 2022 primarily in our mortgage division.

The Company regularly monitors the composition of the loan portfolio to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on loans in light of the impact that changes in the economic environment may have on the loan portfolio. The Company focuses on the following loan categories: (1) commercial, financial and agricultural; (2) consumer installment; (3) indirect automobile; (4) mortgage warehouse; (5) municipal; (6) premium finance; (7) construction and development related real estate; (8) commercial and farmland real estate; and (9) residential real estate. The Company’s management has strategically located its branches in select markets in Georgia, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina to take advantage of the growth in these areas.

The Company’s risk management processes include a loan review program designed to evaluate the credit risk in the loan portfolio and ensure credit grade accuracy. Through the loan review process, the Company conducts (1) a loan portfolio summary analysis, (2) charge-off and recovery analysis, (3) trends in accruing problem loan analysis, and (4) problem and past-due loan analysis. This analysis process serves as a tool to assist management in assessing the overall quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the ACL. Loans classified as “substandard” are loans which are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged. These assets exhibit a well-defined weakness or are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. These weaknesses may be characterized by past due performance, operating losses and/or questionable collateral values. Loans classified as “doubtful” are those loans that have characteristics similar to substandard loans but have an increased risk of loss. Loans classified as “loss” are those loans which are considered uncollectible and are in the process of being charged off.

The Company estimates the ACL on loans based on the underlying assets’ amortized cost basis, which is the amount at which the financing receivable is originated or acquired, adjusted for applicable accretion or amortization of premium, discount, and net deferred fees or costs, collection of cash, and charge-offs. In the event that collection of principal becomes uncertain, the Company has policies in place to reverse accrued interest in a timely manner. Therefore, the Company has made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the measurement of ACL, except for loans modified under the Disaster Relief Program.

Expected credit losses are reflected in the ACL through a charge to credit loss expense. When the Company deems all or a portion of a financial asset to be uncollectible the appropriate amount is written off and the ACL is reduced by the same amount. The Company applies judgment to determine when a financial asset is deemed uncollectible; however, generally speaking, an asset will be considered uncollectible no later than when all efforts at collection have been exhausted. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the ACL when received.

The Company measures expected credit losses of financial assets on a collective (pool) basis, when the financial assets share similar risk characteristics. Depending on the nature of the pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, the Company currently uses the DCF method or the PD×LGD method which may be adjusted for qualitative factors.

The Company’s methodologies for estimating the ACL consider available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The methodologies apply historical loss information, adjusted for asset-specific characteristics, economic conditions at the measurement date, and forecasts about future economic conditions expected to exist through the contractual lives of the financial assets that are reasonable and supportable, to the identified pools of financial assets with similar risk characteristics for which the historical loss experience was observed. The Company’s methodologies revert back to historical loss information on a straight-line basis over four quarters when the Company can no longer develop reasonable and supportable forecasts.

At the end of the second quarter of 2022, the ACL on loans totaled $172.6 million, or 0.98% of loans, compared with $167.6 million, or 1.06% of loans, at December 31, 2021. Our nonaccrual loans increased from $85.3 million at December 31, 2021 to $122.9 million at June 30, 2022. The increase in nonaccrual loans is attributable to rebooked GNMA loans, which the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase, and one commercial real estate loan totaling $10.4 million. For the first six months of 2022, our net charge off ratio as a percentage of average loans decreased to 0.07%, compared with 0.10% for the first six months of 2021. The total provision for credit losses for the first six months of 2022 was $21.2 million, increasing from a provision release of $28.4 million recorded for the first six months of 2021. Our ratio of total nonperforming assets to total assets increased from 0.43% at December 31, 2021 to 0.56% at June 30, 2022.

Non-Performing Assets

Non-performing assets include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more, repossessed personal property, and OREO. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management has concerns relating to the ability to collect the principal and interest and generally when such loans are 90 days or more past due. Management performs a detailed review and valuation assessment of non-performing loans over $250,000 on a quarterly basis. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current income.

Nonaccrual loans totaled $122.9 million at June 30, 2022, an increase of $37.6 million, or 44.2%, from $85.3 million at December 31, 2021. Accruing loans delinquent 90 days or more totaled $8.5 million at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $4.1 million, or 32.5%, compared with $12.6 million at December 31, 2021. At June 30, 2022, OREO totaled $835,000, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 78.1%, compared with $3.8 million at December 31, 2021. Management regularly assesses the valuation of OREO through periodic reappraisal and through inquiries received in the marketing process.  At the end of the second quarter of 2022, total non-performing assets as a percent of total assets increased to 0.56% compared with 0.43% at December 31, 2021.

Non-performing assets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows:

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The restructuring of a loan is considered a “troubled debt restructuring” if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the Company has granted a concession.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a balance of $41.8 million and $76.6 million, respectively, in troubled debt restructurings. These totals do not include COVID-19 loan modifications accounted for under Section 4013 of the CARES Act. The following table presents the amount of troubled debt restructurings by loan class classified separately as accrual and nonaccrual at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Commercial Lending Practices

The federal bank regulatory agencies previously issued interagency guidance on commercial real estate lending and prudent risk management practices. This guidance defines commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans as loans secured by raw land, land development and construction (including one-to-four family residential construction), multi-family property and non-farm nonresidential property where the primary or a significant source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property, excluding owner-occupied properties (loans for which 50% or more of the source of repayment is derived from the ongoing operations and activities conducted by the party, or affiliate of the party, who owns the property) or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing or permanent financing of the property. Loans for owner-occupied CRE are generally excluded from the CRE guidance.

The CRE guidance is applicable when either:

(1)total loans for construction, land development, and other land, net of owner-occupied loans, represent 100% or more of a tier I capital plus allowance for credit losses on loans and leases; or
(2)total loans secured by multifamily and nonfarm nonresidential properties and loans for construction, land development, and other land, net of owner-occupied loans, represent 300% or more of a bank’s tier I capital plus allowance for credit losses on loans and leases.

Banks that are subject to the CRE guidance criteria are required to implement enhanced strategic planning, CRE underwriting policies, risk management and internal controls, portfolio stress testing, risk exposure limits, and other policies, including management compensation and incentives, to address the CRE risks. Higher allowances for loan losses and capital levels may also be appropriate.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company exhibited a concentration in the CRE loan category based on Federal Reserve Call codes. The primary risks of CRE lending are:

54


(1)within CRE loans, construction and development loans are somewhat dependent upon continued strength in demand for residential real estate, which is reliant on favorable real estate mortgage rates and changing population demographics;
(2)on average, CRE loan sizes are generally larger than non-CRE loan types; and
(3)certain construction and development loans may be less predictable and more difficult to evaluate and monitor.

The following table outlines CRE loan categories and CRE loans as a percentage of total loans as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The loan categories and concentrations below are based on Federal Reserve Call codes:

Short-Term Investments

The Company’s short-term investments are comprised of federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits in banks. At June 30, 2022, the Company’s short-term investments were $1.96 billion, compared with $3.76 billion at December 31, 2021. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $5.0 million in federal funds sold and $1.96 billion was in interest-bearing deposit balances at correspondent banks and the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company has forward contracts and IRLCs to economically hedge changes in the value of the mortgage inventory due to changes in market interest rates. The fair value of these instruments amounted to an asset of $10.1 million and $11.9 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and a liability of $0 and $710,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Capital

Common Stock Repurchase Program

On September 19, 2019, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $100.0 million of its outstanding common stock through October 31, 2020. On October 22, 2020 and again on October 28, 2021, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved the extension of the share repurchase program for an additional year in each instance. As a result, the Company is currently authorized to engage in repurchases through October 31, 2022.  Repurchases of shares must be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made from time to time in the open market or by negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of repurchases will be based on a variety of factors, including share acquisition price, regulatory limitations and other market and economic factors. The program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares. As of June 30, 2022, $41.7 million, or 952,910 shares of the Company's common stock, had been repurchased under the program.

Capital Management

Capital management consists of providing equity to support both current and anticipated future operations. The capital resources of the Company are monitored on a periodic basis by state and federal regulatory authorities.

Under the regulatory capital frameworks adopted by the Federal Reserve Board (the "FRB") and the FDIC, the Company and the Bank must each maintain a common equity Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets ratio of at least 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets ratio of at least 6%, a total capital to total risk-weighted assets ratio of at least 8% and a leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets of at least 4%. The Company and the Bank are also required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital of at least 2.5% of risk-weighted assets in addition to the minimum risk-based capital ratios in order to avoid certain restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments.

In March 2020, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the FRB and the FDIC issued an interim final rule that delays the estimated impact on regulatory capital stemming from the implementation of CECL. The interim final rule provides banking organizations that implement CECL in 2020 the option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL’s effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology’s effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period. As a result, the Company and Bank elected the five-year transition relief allowed under the interim final rule effective March 31, 2020.

As of June 30, 2022, under the regulatory capital standards, the Bank was considered “well capitalized” under all capital measurements. The following table sets forth the regulatory capital ratios of for the Company and the Bank at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity

The Company’s primary market risk exposures are credit risk, interest rate risk, and to a lesser degree, liquidity risk. The Bank operates under an Asset Liability Management Policy approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and the ALCO Committee. The policy outlines limits on interest rate risk in terms of changes in net interest income and changes in the net market values of assets and liabilities over certain changes in interest rate environments. These measurements are made through a simulation model which projects the impact of changes in interest rates on the Bank’s assets and liabilities. The policy also outlines responsibility for monitoring interest rate risk, and the process for the approval, implementation and monitoring of interest rate risk strategies to achieve the Bank’s interest rate risk objectives.

The ALCO Committee is comprised of senior officers of Ameris. The ALCO Committee makes all strategic decisions with respect to the sources and uses of funds that may affect net interest income, including net interest spread and net interest margin. The objective of the ALCO Committee is to identify the interest rate, liquidity and market value risks of the Company’s balance sheet and use reasonable methods approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and executive management to minimize those identified risks.

The normal course of business activity exposes the Company to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is managed within an overall asset and liability framework for the Company. The principal objectives of asset and liability management are to predict the sensitivity of net interest spreads to potential changes in interest rates, control risk and enhance profitability. Funding positions are kept within predetermined limits designed to properly manage risk and liquidity. The Company employs sensitivity analysis
56


in the form of a net interest income simulation to help characterize the market risk arising from changes in interest rates. In addition, fluctuations in interest rates usually result in changes in the fair market value of the Company’s financial instruments, cash flows and net interest income. The Company’s interest rate risk position is managed by the ALCO Committee.

The Company uses a simulation modeling process to measure interest rate risk and evaluate potential strategies. Interest rate scenario models are prepared using software created and licensed from an outside vendor. The Company’s simulation includes all financial assets and liabilities. Simulation results quantify interest rate risk under various interest rate scenarios. Management then develops and implements appropriate strategies. The ALCO Committee has determined that an acceptable level of interest rate risk would be for net interest income to increase/decrease no more than 20% given a change in selected interest rates of 200 basis points over any 24-month period.

Liquidity management involves the matching of the cash flow requirements of customers, who may be either depositors desiring to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs, and the ability of Ameris to manage those requirements. The Company strives to maintain an adequate liquidity position by managing the balances and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities so that the balance it has in short-term assets at any given time will adequately cover any reasonably anticipated immediate need for funds. Additionally, the Bank maintains relationships with correspondent banks, which could provide funds on short notice, if needed. The Company has invested in FHLB stock for the purpose of establishing credit lines with the FHLB. The credit availability to the Bank is equal to 30% of the Bank’s total assets as reported on the most recent quarterly financial information submitted to the regulators subject to the pledging of sufficient collateral. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net carrying value of the Company’s other borrowings was $425.6 million and $739.9 million, respectively.

The following liquidity ratios compare certain assets and liabilities to total deposits or total assets:

Interest-bearing deposits to total deposits58.02%59.82%60.46%59.56%61.75%

The liquidity resources of the Company are monitored continuously by the ALCO Committee and on a periodic basis by state and federal regulatory authorities. As determined under guidelines established by these regulatory authorities, the Company’s and the Bank’s liquidity ratios at June 30, 2022 were considered satisfactory. The Company is aware of no events or trends likely to result in a material change in liquidity.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company is exposed only to U.S. dollar interest rate changes, and, accordingly, the Company manages exposure by considering the possible changes in the net interest margin. The Company does not have any trading instruments nor does it classify any portion of the investment portfolio as held for trading. The Company’s hedging activities are limited to cash flow hedges and are part of the Company’s program to manage interest rate sensitivity.

The Company also had forward contracts and IRLCs to economically hedge changes in the value of the mortgage inventory due to changes in market interest rates. The fair value of these instruments amounted to an asset of approximately $10.1 million and $11.9 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and a liability of $0 and $710,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company has no exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk and other market risks.

Interest rates play a major part in the net interest income of a financial institution. The sensitivity to rate changes is known as “interest rate risk.” The repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities can influence the changes in net interest income. As part of the Company’s asset/liability management program, the timing of repriced assets and liabilities is referred to as “gap management.”

The Company uses simulation analysis to monitor changes in net interest income due to changes in market interest rates. The simulation of rising, declining and flat interest rate scenarios allows management to monitor and adjust interest rate sensitivity to minimize the impact of market interest rate swings. The analysis of the impact on net interest income over a 12-month and
57


24-month period is subjected to gradual and parallel shocks of 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis point increases and decreases in market rates and is monitored on a quarterly basis.

Additional information required by Item 305 of Regulation S-K is set forth under Part I, Item 2 of this report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report, as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
