FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Part I of this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are statements that include projections, predictions, expectations or beliefs about future events or results or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. Further, forward-looking statements are intended to speak only as of the date made. Such statements are often characterized by the use of qualifying words (and their derivatives) such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” or other statements concerning our opinions or judgment about future events. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, as they will depend on many factors about which we are unsure, including many factors which are beyond our control. Factors that could influence the accuracy of such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the financial success or changing strategies of our customers, our level of success in integrating acquisitions, actions of government regulators, the level of market interest rates, geopolitical influences and general economic conditions. For additional information about factors that could affect the matters discussed in this paragraph, see the “Risk Factors” section of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Item 1A of Part II of this report.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)

Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Bancorp (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary First Bank (the “Bank”). The Bank has three wholly owned subsidiaries that are fully consolidated, SBA Complete, Inc. (“SBA Complete”), Magnolia Financial, Inc. ("Magnolia Financial"), and First Troy SPE, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes necessary for complete financial statements in accordance with GAAP. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2023, the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Any such adjustments were of a normal, recurring nature. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Operating results for interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
Reference is made to Note 1 of the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for a discussion of accounting policies and other relevant information with respect to the financial statements.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022 consolidated financial statements to be comparable to September 30, 2023. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.
The Company has evaluated all subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2023
ASU 2022-02, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures." The amendments contained in this Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings ("TDR") by creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. This ASU also requires entities to disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 effective January 1, 2023 using a modified retrospective transition approach for the amendments related to the recognition and measurement of TDRs. The impact of the adoption resulted in an immaterial change to the allowance for credit losses ("ACL"), thus no adjustment to retained earnings was recorded. Disclosures have been updated to reflect information on loan modifications given to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty as presented in Note 4. TDR disclosures are presented for comparative periods only and are not required to be updated in current periods. Additionally, the current year vintage disclosure included in Note 4 has been updated to reflect gross charge-offs by year of origination for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
ASU 2022-03, "Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions." This ASU clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security, and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The Company adopted ASU 2022-03 January 1, 2023 with no material impact on its financial statements.
ASU 2022-06, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848." In 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provided optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform. The objective of the guidance in Topic 848 was to provide relief during the temporary transition period and the FASB included a sunset provision based on expectations of when the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") would cease being

Page 11
published. The United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority has extended the intended LIBOR cessation date from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2023. As such, ASU 2022-06 deferred the sunset date previously set to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848; moreover, it applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2022-06 was adopted upon issuance. The Company will continue to elect various optional expedients for contract modifications affected by rate reference reform through the effective date of this guidance with no material effect on its financial statements.
Accounting Standards Pending Adoption
ASU 2023-02, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method” permits reporting entities to elect to account for their tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2023-02 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 2 – Acquisitions
On January 1, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of GrandSouth Bancorporation ("GrandSouth"), in an all-stock transaction pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the "Merger Agreement"), dated June 21, 2022, between the Company and GrandSouth. At the closing of the transaction, GrandSouth merged into the Company. Following the merger of the Company and GrandSouth, GrandSouth Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GrandSouth, merged into the Bank with the Bank being the surviving entity. The results of GrandSouth are included beginning on the January 1, 2023 acquisition date.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of common and preferred stock of GrandSouth issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the acquisition was converted into 0.91 shares of the Company's common stock. As a result, the Company issued 5,032,834 shares of the Company common stock effective January 1, 2023. In addition, GrandSouth common stock options outstanding at the merger effective time were converted to options to acquire 0.91 shares of the Company's common stock resulting in 542,345 options with an average exercise price of approximately $20.14. The total consideration transferred at the close of the transaction was $229.5 million which was determined based on the number of shares issued and the closing market price of the Company's stock immediately prior to the merger effective time of $42.84. In addition to the stock issued, the fair value of the converted stock options calculated in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805-30-55 was included in the total consideration of the transaction.

As a result of the merger, eight branches in South Carolina were added to the Company's branch network. The acquisition accomplished the Company's strategic initiative to expand its presence in South Carolina, specifically in the high-growth markets of the state including Greenville, Charleston and Columbia. Significant synergies were anticipated to be gained from the acquisition, with asset growth and revenue enhancement opportunities from the new markets and expanded customer base. Accordingly, the Company recognized goodwill in the transaction related primarily to the reasons noted, as well as the positive earnings of GrandSouth.
This transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations, and accordingly, the assets acquired, intangible assets identified, and liabilities assumed of GrandSouth were recorded based on estimates of fair values as of January 1, 2023. The determination of fair value requires management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions, and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. Estimated fair values were based on management’s best estimates, using the information available at the date of acquisition, including the use of third-party valuation specialists. Management has finalized the valuations of all acquired assets and liabilities assumed in the GrandSouth acquisition.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of acquired assets, identified intangible assets, and liabilities assumed as of January 1, 2023. Following the table is a discussion of valuation approaches utilized in

Page 12
estimating the fair values in accordance with ASC 805-10, "Business Combinations." The $114.5 million in goodwill that resulted from this transaction is non-deductible for tax purposes.

Less: Total consideration229,489 
Goodwill recorded related to acquisition of GrandSouth$114,487 

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed included in the table above.

Cash and cash equivalents: This consists primarily of cash and due from banks, and interest-bearing deposits with banks. The carrying amount of these assets was a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.

Securities available for sale: Fair value of securities was measured based on quoted market prices, where available. If a quoted market price was not available, fair value was estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities and adjusted for differences between the quoted instrument and the instrument being valued. Substantially all of the securities acquired from GrandSouth were liquidated at their recorded fair value upon close of the transaction or shortly thereafter. There was no gain or loss recorded on the sale of acquired securities.

Loans: Fair value of loans acquired was based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including loan type and related collateral, classification status, remaining term of the loan, fixed or variable interest rate, amortization status, and current discount rates. Expected cash flows were derived using inputs consistent with management's assessment of credit risk for allowance measurement, including estimated future credit losses and estimated prepayments. A total fair value mark of $29.5 million was recorded. Purchased loans with financial deterioration ("PCD loans") were determined based primarily on internal grades, delinquency status, and other evidence of credit deterioration. The Company calculated the "Day 1" allowance of $5.6 million on PCD loans in accordance with its current expected credit loss model ("CECL") and reclassified that amount from the fair value mark to establish the initial ACL on PCD loans. The following table presents additional information related to the acquired loan portfolio at the acquisition date:


Page 13
($ in thousands)January 1, 2023
PCD Loans:
Par value$152,487 
Allowance for credit losses(5,610)
Non-credit discount(1,370)
Purchase price145,507 
Non-PCD Loans:
Fair Value845,716 
Gross contractual amounts receivable865,132 
Estimate of contractual cash flows not expected to be collected22,542 

Premises: Land and buildings held for use were valued at appraised values, which reflected considerations of recent disposition values for similar property types with adjustments for characteristics of individual properties.

Intangible assets: Core deposit intangible ("CDI") asset represents the value of the relationships with deposit customers. The fair value for the core deposit intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of deposit base, net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits and an estimate of the cost associated with alternative funding sources. The discount rates used for CDI assets were based on market rates. The CDI is being amortized over 10 years utilizing the sum of the months digits accelerated method, which results in a weighted-average amortization period of approximately 41 months.

Lease Assets and Lease Liabilities: Lease assets and lease liabilities were measured using a methodology that involved estimating the future lease payments over the remaining lease term with discounting using a discount rate. The lease term was determined for individual leases based on management's assessment of the probability of exercising existing renewal options.

Deposits: The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits by definition equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. Fair values for time deposits were estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis applying interest rates currently offered to the contractual interest rates on such time deposits.

Borrowings: The fair values of long-term debt instruments were estimated based on quoted market prices for instrument if available, or for similar instruments if not available.

Supplemental Pro Forma Financial Information

The following table presents certain pro forma information as if GrandSouth had been acquired on January 1, 2022. These results combine the historical results of GrandSouth with the Company’s results and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2022.

Merger-related costs related to this acquisition of $13.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were recorded by the Company and were excluded from the pro forma information below. There were no merger costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023. In addition, no adjustments have been made to such pro forma information to eliminate the provision for loan losses recorded by GrandSouth in the amount of $1.1 million and $1.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Pro forma information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was adjusted to eliminate the following: 1) the non-PCD provision for loan losses recorded on the acquisition date of $12.2 million and 2) the initial recording of a provision for credit losses associated with GrandSouth’s unfunded commitments of $1.9 million. If the GrandSouth acquisition had occurred at the beginning of 2022, the acquisition date credit loss reserve amounts would have been included in the fair value measurements of GrandSouth and also included in the goodwill calculation.

The following table also discloses the impact of the acquisition of GrandSouth from the acquisition date of January 1, 2023 through September 30, 2023. These amounts are included in the Company’s consolidated financial

statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Merger-related costs have been excluded from these amounts and the provisions for credit loss amounts associated with non-PCD loans and unfunded commitments that were discussed above have also been excluded.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company's securities portfolio held 656 securities of which 652 securities were in an unrealized loss position. As of December 31, 2022, the Company's securities portfolio held 666 securities of which 644 securities were in an unrealized loss position.
In the above tables, all of the securities that were in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are bonds that the Company has determined are in a loss position due primarily to interest rate factors and not credit quality concerns. In arriving at this conclusion, the Company reviewed third-party credit ratings and considered the severity of the impairment. The state and local government investments are comprised almost entirely of highly-rated municipal bonds issued by state and local governments throughout the nation. The Company has no significant concentrations of bond holdings from one state or local government entity. Nearly all of our mortgage-backed securities were issued by Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"), Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA"), Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"), or the Small Business Administration ("SBA"), each of which is a government agency or GSE and guarantees the repayment of the securities. The Company does not intend to sell these securities, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities before recovery of the amortized cost.
At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company determined that expected credit losses associated with held to maturity debt securities were insignificant.
The book values and approximate fair values of investment securities at September 30, 2023, by contractual maturity, are summarized in the table below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, investment securities with carrying values of $1.6 billion and $758.0 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral for public deposits or at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond ("Federal Reserve") as security on lines of credit.
At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than U.S. Government and its agencies or GSEs, in an amount greater than 10% of shareholders' equity.
There were no sales of investment securities during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2023 with the exception of securities acquired from GrandSouth as discussed in Note 2. There was no gain or loss associated with the sale of acquired securities.
Included in “Other assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are investments in Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve stock totaling $55.4 million and $39.6 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These investments do not have readily determinable fair values. The FHLB stock had a cost and fair value of $22.6 million and $14.7 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and serves as part of the collateral for the Company’s line of credit with the FHLB and is also a requirement for membership in the FHLB system. The Federal Reserve stock had a cost and fair value of $32.8 million and $24.9 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is a requirement for Federal Reserve member bank qualification. Periodically, both the FHLB and Federal Reserve recalculate the Company’s required level of holdings, and the Company either buys more stock or redeems a portion of the stock at cost. The Company determined that neither stock was impaired at either period end.
The Company owns 12,356 Class B shares of Visa, Inc. (“Visa”) stock that were received upon Visa’s initial public offering. These shares are expected to convert into Class A Visa shares subsequent to the settlement of certain litigation against Visa, to which the Company is not a party. The Class B shares have transfer restrictions, and the conversion rate into Class A shares is periodically adjusted as Visa settles litigation. The conversion rate at September 30, 2023 was 1.5875, which means the Company would have received approximately 19,615 Class A shares if the stock had converted on that date. This Class B stock does not have a readily determinable fair value and is carried at zero. If a readily determinable fair value becomes available for the Class B shares, or upon their conversion to Class A shares, the Company will adjust the carrying value of the stock to its market value with a credit to earnings.

Collateral dependent loans are loans for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The Company reviews individually evaluated loans on nonaccrual with a net book balance of $500,000 or greater for designation as collateral dependent loans, as well as certain other loans that may still be accruing interest and/or are less than $500,000 in size that management of the Company designates as having higher risk. These loans do not share common risk characteristics and are not included within the collectively evaluated loans for determining the ACL.

Under CECL, for collateral dependent loans, the Company has adopted the practical expedient to measure the ACL based on the fair value of collateral. The ACL is calculated on an individual loan basis based on the shortfall between the fair value of the loan's collateral, which is adjusted for liquidation costs/discounts, and amortized cost. If the fair value of the collateral exceeds the amortized cost, no allowance is required.

The Company's policy is to obtain third-party appraisals on any significant pieces of collateral. For loans secured by real estate, the Company's policy is to write nonaccrual loans down to 90% of the appraised value, which considers estimated selling costs that are usually incurred when disposing of real estate collateral. For real estate collateral that is in industries which may be undergoing heightened stress due to economic or other external factors, the Company may reduce the collateral values by an additional 10-25% of appraised value to recognize additional

Page 21
discounts that are estimated to be incurred in a near-term sale. For non real estate collateral secured loans, the Company generally writes nonaccrual loans down to 75% of the appraised value, which provides for selling costs and liquidity discounts that are usually incurred when disposing of non real estate collateral. For reviewed loans that are not on nonaccrual basis, the Company assigns a specific allowance based on the parameters noted above.

The Company does not believe that there is significant excess collateral for any of the loan types noted above.

The following tables presents the activity in the ACL on loans for each of the periods indicated. Fluctuations in the ACL each period are based on loan mix and growth, changes in the levels of nonperforming loans, economic forecasts impacting loss drivers, other assumptions and inputs to the CECL model, and as occurred in 2023, adjustments for acquired loan portfolios. Much of the change to the level of ACL during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is attributed to the acquisition of GrandSouth. In addition to the "Day 1" allowance recorded for PCD loans of $5.6 million, the Company recorded a "Day 2" initial provision of $12.2 million related to the non-PCD loans in the GrandSouth portfolio. The balance of the change was a result of loan growth during the period and updated prepayment speed estimates in the CECL model. The higher rate environment has resulted in slower prepayments, thus increasing the projected ACL required.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company tracks credit quality based on its internal risk ratings. Upon origination, a loan is assigned an initial risk grade, which is generally based on several factors such as the borrower’s credit score, the loan-to-value ratio, the debt-to-income ratio, etc. Loans that are risk-graded as substandard during the origination process are declined. After loans are initially graded, they are monitored regularly for credit quality based on many factors, such as payment history, the borrower’s financial status, and changes in collateral value. Loans can be downgraded or upgraded depending on management’s evaluation of these factors. Internal risk-grading policies are consistent throughout each loan type.
The following describes the Company’s internal risk grades in ascending order of likelihood of loss:
Risk GradeDescription
Pass:
1Loans with virtually no risk, including cash secured loans.
2Loans with documented significant overall financial strength.  These loans have minimum chance of loss due to the presence of multiple sources of repayment – each clearly sufficient to satisfy the obligation.
3Loans with documented satisfactory overall financial strength.  These loans have a low loss potential due to presence of at least two clearly identified sources of repayment – each of which is sufficient to satisfy the obligation under the present circumstances.
4Loans to borrowers with acceptable financial condition.  These loans could have signs of minor operational weaknesses, lack of adequate financial information, or loans supported by collateral with questionable value or marketability.  
5Loans that represent above average risk due to minor weaknesses and warrant closer scrutiny by management.  Collateral is generally required and felt to provide reasonable coverage with realizable liquidation values in normal circumstances.  Repayment performance is satisfactory.
P
(Pass)		Consumer loans that are of satisfactory credit quality with borrowers who exhibit good personal credit history, average personal financial strength and moderate debt levels.  These loans generally conform to Bank policy, but may include approved mitigated exceptions to the guidelines.  
Special Mention:
6Existing loans with defined weaknesses in primary source of repayment that, if not corrected, could cause a loss to the Bank.
Classified:
7An existing loan inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any.  These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt.
8Loans that have a well-defined weakness that make the collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable.  Loss appears imminent, but the exact amount and timing is uncertain.
9Loans that are considered uncollectible and are in the process of being charged-off.  This grade is a temporary grade assigned for administrative purposes until the charge-off is completed.
F
(Fail)		Consumer loans with a well-defined weakness, such as exceptions of any kind with no mitigating factors, history of paying outside the terms of the note, insufficient income to support the current level of debt, etc.

In the tables that follow, substantially all of the "Classified" loans have grades of 7 or Fail, with those categories having similar levels of risk.

The tables below present the Company’s recorded investment in loans by credit quality indicators by year of origination or renewal as of the periods indicated. Acquired loans are presented in the year originated, not in the year of acquisition.

Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
Effective January 1, 2023, we adopted ASU 2022-02 which eliminated the accounting guidance for TDRs and requires disclosures for certain loan modifications when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.
Occasionally, the Company modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress as a part of our loss mitigation activities. Various types of modification may be offered including principal forgiveness, term extension, payment delays, or interest rate reductions. In some cases, the Company will modify a certain loan by providing multiple types of concessions. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession may be granted. For loans included in the “combination” columns below, multiple types of modifications have been made on the same loan within the current reporting period.

The followings tables present the amortized cost basis at September 30, 2023 of the loans modified during the three and nine months then ended for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, by loan category and type of concession granted.

The Company closely monitors the performance of the loans that are modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts.

None of the modifications made for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are considered to have had a payment default.
Upon the Company’s determination that a modified loan (or portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is written off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the ACL is adjusted by the same amount.
TDR Disclosures Prior to the Adoption of ASU 2022-02
The restructuring of a loan was considered a TDR if both (i) the borrower was experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the creditor had granted a concession. Concessions may have included interest rate reductions or below market interest rates, principal forgiveness, extension of terms and other actions intended to minimize potential losses.
The vast majority of the Company’s TDRs modified during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to interest rate reductions combined with extension of terms. The Company does not generally grant principal forgiveness.

Page 28
The Company’s TDRs are classified as either nonaccrual or accruing based on the loan’s payment status. The TDRs that were nonaccrual were reported within the nonaccrual loan totals presented previously.
The following table presents information related to loans modified in a TDR during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

There were no accruing TDRs that were modified in the twelve months preceding September 30, 2022 and that defaulted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Most of the Company's business activity is with customers located within the markets where it has banking operations. Therefore, the Company’s exposure to credit risk is significantly affected by changes in the economy within its markets. Approximately 88% of the Company's loan portfolio is secured by real estate and is therefore susceptible to changes in real estate valuations.
Allowance for Unfunded Loan Commitments
In addition to the ACL on loans, the Company maintains an allowance for lending-related commitments such as unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. 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 allowance for lending-related commitments on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for unfunded commitments expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur, which is based on a historical funding study derived from internal information, and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life, which are the same loss rates that are used in computing the ACL on loans. The allowance for unfunded loan commitments of $11.8 million and $13.3 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, were separately classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheets within "Other liabilities."
The following table presents the balance and activity in the allowance for unfunded loan commitments for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022:

Customer lists are generally amortized over five years and core deposit intangibles are generally amortized over 10 years, both at an accelerated rate.
Amortization expense of all other intangible assets, excluding the SBA servicing assets, totaled $2.0 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $6.1 million and $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
SBA servicing assets are recorded for the portions of SBA loans that the Company has sold but continues to service for a fee. Servicing assets are initially recorded at fair value and amortized over the expected lives of the related loans and are tested for impairment on a quarterly basis. SBA servicing asset amortization expense is recorded within noninterest income as an offset to SBA servicing fees within the line item "Other service charges, commissions, and fees."

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company serviced SBA loans totaling $364.9 million and $392.4 million, respectively, for others. There were no other loans serviced in any period presented.
Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on at least an annual basis, with the annual evaluation occurring as of October 31 of each year. Goodwill is also evaluated for impairment any time there is a triggering event indicating that impairment may have occurred. No triggering events were identified during 2023 to date or in 2022, and therefore, the Company did not perform interim impairment evaluations in either of those periods. The Company's most recent evaluation of goodwill, which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2022, indicated that there was no goodwill impairment.

Note 7 – Leases
The Company enters into leases in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2023, the Company leased 17 bank branch offices for which the land and buildings are leased and ten branch offices for which the land is leased but the buildings are owned. The Company also leases office space for several operational departments. All of the Company’s leases are operating leases under applicable accounting standards and the lease agreements have maturity dates ranging from January 2024 through May 2076, some of which include options for multiple five- and ten-year extensions. The weighted average remaining life of the lease term for these leases was 19.6 years as of September 30, 2023. Certain of the Company's lease agreements include variable lease payments based on changes in inflation, with the impact of that factor being insignificant to the Company's total lease expense. As permitted by applicable accounting standards, the Company has elected not to recognize leases with original lease terms of twelve months or less (short-term leases) on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The short-term lease cost for each period presented was insignificant.
Leases are classified as either operating or finance leases at the lease commencement date, and as previously noted, all of the Company's leases have been determined to be operating leases. Lease expense for operating leases and short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable lease term. Right-of-use assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities

Page 33
are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.
The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, on a collateralized basis, at lease commencement to calculate the present value of lease payments when the rate implicit in the lease is not known. The weighted average discount rate for leases was 3.16% as of September 30, 2023.
Total operating lease expenses were $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $17.6 million and $18.3 million as of September 30, 2023, respectively, and were $18.7 million and $19.4 million as of December 31, 2022, respectively.

Note 8 – Pension Plans
The Company sponsored two defined benefit pension plans – a qualified retirement plan (the “Pension Plan”) which was generally available to all employees, and a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) which was for the benefit of certain senior management executives of the Company. Effective December 31, 2012, the Company froze both plans for all participants. Although no previously accrued benefits were lost, no additional accruals of benefits under these plans for service subsequent to 2012 have been made.
The Company recorded periodic pension cost totaling $51,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $152,000 and $153,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The following table contains the components of the pension cost:

Page 34

The service cost component of net periodic pension cost is included in salaries and benefits expense and all other components of net periodic pension cost are included in other noninterest expense.
The Company’s funding policy with respect to the SERP is to fund the related benefits from the operating cash flow of the Company.
The Company’s contributions to the Pension Plan are based on computations by independent actuarial consultants and are intended to be deductible for income tax purposes. The Company did not contribute to the Pension Plan in the first nine months of 2023 and does not expect to contribute to the Pension Plan in the remainder of 2023. On March 27, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved termination of the Pension Plan to be effective during the calendar year 2023 and a termination cost estimate of $2.4 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2023 in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. On July 31, 2023, the Pension Plan was amended to terminate the Plan as of that date. The Company is in the process of taking appropriate actions necessary to liquidate the Pension Plan which is anticipated to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Note 9 – Fair Value
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal and most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) of identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for financial instruments measured at fair value.
Presold Mortgages in Process of Settlement — The fair value is based on the committed price that an investor has agreed to pay for the loan and is considered a Level 1 input.
Securities Available for Sale — When quoted market prices are available in an active market, the securities are classified as Level 1 in the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, but fair values can be estimated by observing quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, the securities are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy. Most of the fair values for the Company’s Level 2 securities are determined by our third-party bond accounting provider using matrix pricing. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities. For the Company, Level 2 securities include U.S. Treasury bonds, mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed obligations, GSEs, and corporate bonds. In cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Individually evaluated loans — Fair values for individually evaluated loans are measured on a non-recurring basis and are based on (1) the underlying collateral values securing the loans, adjusted for estimated selling costs, or (2) the net present value ("PV") of the cash flows expected to be received for such loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is generally determined by third-party appraisers using an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed third party appraiser (Level 3). The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable borrower’s financial statements if not considered significant. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivable collateral are based on borrower financial statement balances or aging reports on a discounted basis as appropriate (Level 3). Appraisals used in this analysis are generally obtained at least annually based on when the loans first became impaired, and thus the appraisals are not necessarily as of the period ends presented. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for credit losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Foreclosed real estate — Foreclosed real estate, consisting of properties obtained through foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, is reported at the lower of cost or fair value. Fair value is measured on a non-recurring basis and is based upon independent market prices or current appraisals that are generally prepared using an income or market valuation approach and conducted by an independent, licensed third party appraiser, adjusted for estimated selling costs (Level 3). Appraisals used in this analysis are generally obtained at least annually based on when the assets were acquired, and thus the appraisals are not necessarily as of the period ends presented. At the time of foreclosure, any excess of the loan balance over the fair value of the real estate held as collateral is treated as a charge against the ACL. For any real estate valuations

Page 36
subsequent to foreclosure, any excess of the real estate recorded value over the fair value of the real estate is treated as a foreclosed real estate write-down on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2023, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows:

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no highly liquid market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.

accounts, income taxes currently payable and other various accrued expenses. In addition, the income tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates.
Note 10 – Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recorded total stock-based compensation expense of $1.2 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $3.4 million and $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized $278,000 and $170,000 of income tax benefits related to stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $798,000 and $445,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
At September 30, 2023, the sole equity-based compensation plan of the Company was the First Bancorp 2014 Equity Plan (the "Equity Plan"), which was approved by shareholders on May 8, 2014. As of September 30, 2023, the Equity Plan had 205,498 shares remaining available for grant.
The Equity Plan is intended to serve as a means to attract, retain and motivate key employees and directors and to associate the interests of the plans' participants with those of the Company and its shareholders. The Equity Plan allows for both grants of stock options and other types of equity-based compensation, including stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted performance stock, unrestricted stock, and performance units.
Recent equity awards to employees have been made in the form of shares of restricted stock awards with service vesting conditions only. Compensation expense for these awards is recorded over the requisite service periods. Upon forfeiture, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed. Upon a change in control (as defined in the Equity Plan), unless the awards remain outstanding or substitute equivalent awards are provided, the awards become immediately vested.
Certain of the Company’s equity grants contain terms that provide for an annual or cliff vesting schedule whereby portions of the award vest in increments over the requisite service period. The Company recognizes compensation expense for awards with vesting schedules on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each incremental award. Compensation expense is based on the estimated number of stock awards that will ultimately vest. Over the past five years, there have been insignificant amounts of forfeitures, and therefore the Company assumes that all awards granted with service conditions only will vest.
In addition to employee equity awards, the Company's practice is to grant common shares, valued at approximately $37,500 for the current year, to each non-employee director (currently 14 in total) in June of each year. Compensation expense associated with these director awards is recognized on the date of award since there are no vesting conditions.
The following table presents information regarding the activity for the first nine months of 2023 related to the Company’s outstanding restricted stock awards:

Total unrecognized compensation expense as of September 30, 2023 amounted to $6.1 million with a weighted-average remaining term of 2.0 years. For the nonvested awards that were outstanding at September 30, 2023, the Company expects to record $3.6 million in compensation expense in the next twelve months, $1.2 million of which is expected to be recorded in the remaining quarter of 2023.

The expected life is based on historical exercises and forfeitures experience of the grantees. The volatility is based on historical price volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based on a U.S. Treasury instrument with a life that is similar to the expected life of the option grant.
At September 30, 2023, the Company had no unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options. All unexercised options expire ten years after the applicable original grant dates under the GrandSouth stock option plan.

Note 13 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers

All of the Company’s revenues that are in the scope of the “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” accounting standard (“ASC 606”) are recognized within noninterest income. The following table presents the Company’s sources of noninterest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Items outside the scope of ASC 606 are noted as such.

Total noninterest income$15,177 16,912 42,948 53,427 
A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606 is detailed below.
Service charges on deposit accounts: The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Maintenance and activity fees include account maintenance fees and transaction-based fees. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of the month,

Page 42
representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer’s account balance.
Other service charges and fees: The Company earns interchange income on its customers’ debit and credit card usage and earns fees from other services utilized by its customers. Interchange income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as MasterCard. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder. Interchange fees are offset with interchange expenses and are presented on a net basis. Other service charges include revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier’s checks, ATM surcharge fees, and other services. The Company’s performance obligation for fees, exchange, and other service charges are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.
Commissions from the sales of financial products: The Company earns commissions from the sale of wealth management products which primarily consist of commissions received on financial product sales, such as annuities. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied upon the issuance of the financial product. Shortly after the policy is issued, the carrier remits the commission payment to the Company, and the Company recognizes the revenue. The Company also earns some fees from asset management, which is billed quarterly for services rendered in the most recent period, for which the performance obligation has been satisfied.
SBA consulting fees: The Company earns fees for its consulting services related to the origination of SBA loans. Fees are based on a percentage of the dollar amount of the originated loans and are recorded when the performance obligation has been satisfied.
The Company has made no significant judgments in applying the revenue guidance prescribed in ASC 606 that affect the determination of the amount and timing of revenue from the above-described contracts with customers.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Recent Developments and Acquisitions
On January 1, 2023, we acquired GrandSouth, a community bank headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina, in an all-stock transaction. The terms of the Merger Agreement provided that each share of common and preferred stock of GrandSouth issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the acquisition was converted into 0.91 shares of the Company's common stock. As a result, the Company issued 5,032,834 shares of the Company's common stock effective January 1, 2023. In addition, GrandSouth common stock options outstanding at the merger effective time were converted to options to acquire 0.91 shares of the Company's common stock resulting in 542,345 options with an average exercise price of approximately $20.14.

The GrandSouth acquisition contributed $1.02 billion in loans and $1.05 billion in deposits, with eight branches in South Carolina being added to the Company's branch network. The acquisition accomplished the Company's strategic initiative to expand its presence in South Carolina, specifically in the the high-growth markets of the state including Greenville, Charleston and Columbia.

Highlights of the results for the quarter and year-to-date period are presented below (refer also to additional discussion in the "Results of Operations" and "Financial Condition" sections following). Comparisons for the financial periods presented are impacted by the GrandSouth acquisition.

Overview and Highlights at and for Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

We earned net income of $29.9 million, or $0.73 diluted EPS, during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to net income of $37.9 million, or $1.06 diluted EPS, for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Higher cost of funds was the primary driver to the lower income for the current year as compared to the prior year.


Page 43
•Net interest income for the third quarter of 2023 was $84.7 million, a 0.7% decrease from the $85.3 million recorded in the third quarter of 2022. The decrease in net interest income from the prior year period was driven by higher cost of funds, partially offset by higher earning assets related to both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic growth.
•Net interest margin ("NIM") on a tax-equivalent basis decreased in the third quarter of 2023 to 2.97% from 3.40% for the third quarter of 2022 related to the higher cost of funds, partially offset by increases in market interest rates driving higher yields on loans and increased loan accretion.
•Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.7 million, or 10.3%, from the comparable period of 2022 primarily related to lower bankcard revenues and lower other gains.
•Noninterest expense increased $13.5 million, or 27.8%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the prior year period driven by higher personnel expense, intangible amortization, and increased general operating expenses resulting from the GrandSouth acquisition.

Overview and Highlights at and for Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

We earned net income of $74.5 million, or $1.81 diluted EPS, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to net income of $108.5 million, or $3.04 diluted EPS, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
•Net interest income for nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $264.2 million, a 9.9% increase from the $240.5 million recorded for the comparable period of 2022. The increase in net interest income was driven by higher earning assets related to both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic growth, partially offset by lower NIM between periods.
•NIM on a tax-equivalent basis decreased to 3.12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 3.27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to higher cost of funds driven by increases in market rates and competition for deposits. Higher rates on interest-bearing liabilities were partially offset by increased loan yields from market rate increases and pricing on new loans, combined with increased loan discount accretion.
•For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $14.9 million in provision for credit losses which was directly related to: (1) a one-time provision of $12.2 million for non-credit deteriorated loans; and (2) a one-time initial provision for unfunded commitments of $1.9 million for loans acquired from GrandSouth.
•Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 totaled $42.9 million, a decrease of $10.5 million, or 19.6%, from the comparable period of 2022 primarily related to lower bankcard revenues, declines in SBA loan sale gains and lower other gains.
•Noninterest expense increased $48.4 million, or 32.4%, to $198.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year period driven by higher personnel expense, merger expenses, and increased general operating expenses resulting from the GrandSouth acquisition.

Total assets at September 30, 2023 amounted to $12.0 billion, a 12.7% increase from December 31, 2022, driven primarily by the acquisition of GrandSouth. The primary balance sheet changes are presented below.
•Total loans amounted to $8.0 billion at September 30, 2023, with acquired balances contributing $1.02 billion and organic growth of $341.8 million, for an annualized organic growth rate (exclusive of acquired loans) of 5.9% from December 31, 2022.
•Total deposits were $10.2 billion at September 30, 2023, an increase of $1.0 billion from December 31, 2022. Acquired deposits contributed $1.05 billion while organic market growth (excluding wholesale funding) totaled $220.7 million since year end for an annualized growth rate of 3.0%. Wholesale brokered deposits decreased $249.4 million from year end.
•Credit quality continued to be strong at September 30, 2023, with a NPA to total assets ratio of 0.32% as of September 30, 2023 down from 0.39% for the comparable period of 2022.
•Our on-balance sheet liquidity ratio was 14.4% at September 30, 2023. Available off-balance sheet sources totaled $2.2 billion at quarter end, resulting in a total liquidity ratio of 30.2%.

Page 44
•We remain well-capitalized by all regulatory standards with a total common equity Tier 1 ratio of 12.93% and total risk-based capital ratio of 15.26%.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The accounting principles we follow and our methods of applying these principles conform with GAAP and with general practices followed by the banking industry. Certain of these principles involve a significant amount of judgment and may involve the use of estimates based on our best assumptions at the time of the estimation. We have identified the accounting policies discussed below as being more sensitive in terms of judgments and estimates taking into account their overall potential impact to our consolidated financial statements.
The following should be read in conjunction with our significant accounting policies as presented in Note 1 of the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Allowance for Unfunded Commitments
The ACL represents management’s current estimate of credit losses for the remaining estimated life of financial instruments. We perform periodic and systematic detailed reviews of the loan portfolio to identify trends and to assess the overall collectability of the portfolio. We believe the accounting estimate related to the ACL is a “critical accounting estimate” as: (1) changes in it can materially affect the provision for credit losses and net income; (2) it requires management to predict borrowers’ likelihood or capacity to repay, including evaluation of inherently uncertain future economic conditions; (3) the value of underlying collateral must be estimated on collateral-dependent loans; (4) prepayment activity must be projected to estimate the life of loans that often are shorter than contractual terms; and (5) it requires estimation of a reasonable and supportable forecast period for credit losses. Accordingly, this is a highly subjective process and requires significant judgment since it is difficult to evaluate current and future economic conditions in relation to an overall credit cycle and estimate the timing and extent of loss events that are expected to occur prior to the end of a loan’s estimated life.
Our ACL is assessed at each balance sheet date and adjustments are recorded in the provision for credit losses. The ACL is estimated based on loan level characteristics using historical loss rates, a reasonable and supportable economic forecast, and assumptions of probability of default and loss given default. Loan balances considered uncollectible are charged-off against the ACL. There are many factors affecting the ACL, some of which are quantitative, while others require qualitative judgment. Although management believes its process for determining the ACL adequately considers all the potential factors that could potentially result in credit losses, the process includes subjective elements and is susceptible to significant change. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management estimates, additional provision for credit losses could be required that could adversely affect our earnings or financial position in future periods.
PCD loans represent assets that are acquired with evidence of more than insignificant credit quality deterioration since origination as of the acquisition date. At acquisition, an allowance on PCD loans is booked directly to the ACL. Any subsequent changes in the ACL on PCD loans is recorded through the provision for credit losses.
We believe that the ACL is adequate to absorb the expected life of loan credit losses on the portfolio of loans as of the balance sheet date. Actual losses incurred may differ materially from our estimates. For example, inflationary pressures and recessionary concerns leading to macroeconomic deterioration of the economy, higher unemployment and declines in real estate and other asset valuations could affect our loss experience and assumptions utilized in our model.
We estimate expected credit losses on unfunded commitments to extend credit over the contractual period in which we are exposed to credit risk on the underlying commitments, unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable. The allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures, which is included in "Other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, is adjusted for as an increase or decrease to the provision for unfunded commitments. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. The methodology is based on a loss rate approach that starts with the probability of funding based on historical experience. Similar to methodology discussed above related to the loans receivable portfolio, adjustments are made to the historical losses for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
Additional information on the loan portfolio and ACL can be found in the “Nonperforming Assets” and “Allowance for Credit Losses and Loan Loss Experience” sections below.

Page 45
Business Combinations and Goodwill
We believe that the accounting for business combinations, goodwill, and other intangible assets also involves a higher degree of judgment than most other significant accounting policies. Pursuant to applicable accounting guidance, we recognize assets acquired, including identified intangible assets, and the liabilities assumed in acquisitions at their fair values as of the acquisition date, with the related transaction costs expensed in the period incurred. Specified items such as acquired operating lease assets and liabilities as lessee, employee benefit plans, and income-tax related balances are recognized in accordance with accounting guidance that results in measurements that may differ from fair value. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed often involves estimates based on internal or third-party valuations which include appraisals, discounted cash flow analysis, or other valuation techniques that may include estimates of attrition, inflation, asset growth rates, discount rates, credit risk, multiples of earnings, or other relevant factors. The determination of fair value may require us to make point-in-time estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions, and other future events that can be volatile in nature and challenging to assess. While we use the best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, the estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement.
The primary identifiable intangible asset we typically record in connection with a whole bank or bank branch acquisition is the value of the core deposit intangibles which represents the estimated value of the long-term deposit relationships acquired in the transaction. Determining the amount of identifiable intangible assets and their average lives involves multiple assumptions and estimates and is typically determined by performing a discounted cash flow analysis, which involves a combination of any or all of the following assumptions: customer attrition/runoff, alternative funding costs, deposit servicing costs, and discount rates. The core deposit intangibles are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the deposit accounts based on a method that we believe reasonably approximates the anticipated benefit stream from this intangible. The estimated useful lives are periodically reviewed for reasonableness and have generally been estimated to have a life ranging from seven to ten years, with an accelerated rate of amortization. We review identifiable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Our policy is that an impairment loss is recognized, equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and its fair value, if the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Estimating future cash flows involves the use of multiple estimates and assumptions, such as those listed above.
The ACL for PCD loans is recognized within business combination accounting with no initial impact to net income. Changes in estimates of expected credit losses on PCD loans after acquisition are recognized as provision expense (or reversal of provision expense) in subsequent periods as they arise. The ACL for non-PCD loans is recognized as provision expense in the same reporting period as the business combination. Estimated loan losses for acquired loans are determined using methodologies and applying estimates and assumptions that were described previously in the "Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Allowance for Unfunded Commitments" foregoing section.
Non-PCD loans acquired are generally estimated at fair value using a discounted cash flow approach with assumptions of discount rate, remaining life, prepayments, probability of default, and loss given default. The actual cash flows on these loans could differ materially from the fair value estimates. The amount we record as the fair values for the loans is generally less than the contractual unpaid principal balance due from the borrowers, with the difference being referred to as the “discount” on the acquired loans. Discounts on acquired non-PCD loans are accreted to interest income over their estimated remaining lives, which may include prepayment estimates in certain circumstances.
Similarly, premiums or discounts on acquired debt are accreted or amortized to interest expense over their remaining lives. Actual accretion or amortization of premiums and discounts from a business acquisition may differ materially from our estimates impacting our operating results.
Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the excess of the purchase price over the sum of the estimated fair values of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired less the estimated fair value of the liabilities assumed. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life and is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. At each reporting date between annual goodwill impairment tests, we consider potential indicators of impairment. During 2023, there were no triggers warranting interim impairment assessments and, for the most recent annual assessment which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2022, we concluded that it was more likely than not that the fair value exceeded its carrying value.

Net interest income is our largest source of revenue and is the difference between the interest earned on interest-earning assets (generally loans and investment securities) and the interest expense incurred in connection with interest-bearing liabilities (generally deposits and borrowed funds). Changes in the net interest income are the result of changes in volume and the net interest spread which affects NIM. Volume refers to the average dollar levels of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest spread refers to the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. NIM refers to net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets and is influenced by the level and relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is also influenced by external factors such as local economic conditions, competition for loans and deposits, and market interest rates.
For internal purposes, we evaluate our NIM on a tax-equivalent basis by adding the tax benefit realized from tax-exempt loans and securities to reported interest income then dividing by total average earning assets. We believe that analysis of NIM on a tax-equivalent basis is useful and appropriate because it allows a comparison of net interest income in different periods without taking into account the different mix of taxable versus non-taxable loans and investments that may have existed during those periods.
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 amounted to $84.7 million, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 0.7%, from the $85.3 million recorded in the third quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by higher cost of funds, partially offset by higher average earning assets from both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic growth. Average interest-earning assets for the second quarter of 2023 increased 13.7% from the comparable period of the prior year, with growth primarily in loans. Somewhat offsetting the impact of the higher earning assets was the reduction in our NIM which, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased from 3.40% for the third quarter of 2022 to 2.97% for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Overall, as demonstrated in the table above, despite the higher earning asset volumes arising from both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic growth, the compression in NIM drove the decrease in net interest income.
•Market interest rates increased 225 basis points between September 2022 and September 2023 to result in an average prime rate of 8.43% for three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 5.35% for the prior year period.
•Average loan volumes for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $1.5 billion higher than the same period in 2022. In addition to higher volumes arising from both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic loan growth, interest rates on loans increased 83 basis points to 5.32% for the third quarter of 2023, resulting in an increase in loan interest income of $34.3 million.
•Primarily due to higher market rates and increased average balances related in large part to the GrandSouth acquisition, deposit interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $30.8 million compared to the same period in 2022. Average interest-bearing deposit balances increased $1.1 billion while rates on those deposits increased 182 basis points as compared to the same period in the prior year.
•The combination of higher rates on borrowings, up 189 basis points in the third quarter of 2023 from the third quarter of 2022 due to increasing market rates and the increase in volume of borrowings between periods drove the $5.4 million increase in interest expense. Average borrowings increased $328.6 million in the third quarter of 2023 due in large part to the higher levels of short-term borrowings utilized as needed to fund loan growth and manage fluctuations in deposit balances.
•The decrease in NIM was directly related to higher cost of funds, partially offset by higher loan yields from market rate increases and improved pricing on new loans, combined with increased loan discount accretion.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 amounted to $264.2 million, an increase of $23.7 million, or 9.9%, from the $240.5 million recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was driven by higher average earning assets from both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic growth. Our tax-equivalent NIM fell to 3.12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 3.27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as discussed further below.

Overall, as demonstrated in the table above, higher earning asset volumes, arising from both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic growth, partially offset by the reduction in NIM, drove the increase in net interest income.
•Market interest rates increased 225 basis points between September 2022 and September 2023 to result in an average prime rate of 8.09% for nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 4.20% for the prior year period.
•Average loan volumes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $1.6 billion higher than the same period in 2022 due to both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic loan growth. In addition, interest rates on loans increased 92 basis points to 5.27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, resulting in an increase in loan interest income of $107.3 million.
•Primarily due to higher market rates and increased average balances related in large part to the GrandSouth acquisition, deposit interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $73.7 million compared to the same period in 2022. Average interest-bearing deposit balances increased $858.3 million while rates on those deposits increased 150 basis points as compared to the same period in the prior year.
•The combination of higher rates on borrowings, up 211 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 due to increasing market rates, and the increase in volume of borrowings between periods drove the $17.0 million increase in interest expense on borrowings. Average borrowings increased $371.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 due in large part to the higher levels of short-term borrowings utilized as needed to fund loan growth and manage fluctuations in deposit balances.
•NIM decreased 15 basis points between the comparable periods as higher loan yields from market rate increases and improved pricing on new loans, combined with increased loan discount accretion was more than offset by the higher cost of funds, also driven by increases in market rates and competition for deposits.

Our NIM for all periods benefited from net accretion income, primarily associated with purchase accounting discounts on loans, and premiums/discounts on deposits and borrowings associated with acquisitions. Presented in the table below is the amount of purchase accounting adjustments which impacted net interest income in each time period presented.

The increase in loan discount accretion on acquired loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior year was related to the GrandSouth acquisition which added $23.9 million in accretable discount as of the acquisition date. Generally, the level of loan discount accretion will decline each year due to the natural paydowns in acquired loan portfolios. At September 30, 2023 and 2022, unaccreted loan discounts on purchased loans amounted to $26.5 million and $12.5 million, respectively.
In addition to the loan discount accretion recorded on acquired loans, we recorded accretion on the discounts associated with the retained unguaranteed portions of SBA loans sold in the secondary market. The level of SBA loan discount accretion will vary relative to fluctuations in the SBA loan portfolio. At September 30, 2023 and 2022, the unaccreted loan discounts on SBA loans amounted to $4.0 million and $4.6 million, respectively.

Provision for Credit Losses and Provision for Unfunded Commitments
The provisions for credit losses represents our current estimate of life of loan credit losses in the loan portfolio and unfunded loan commitments. Our estimate of credit losses is determined using a complex model that relies on reasonable and supportable forecasts and historical loss information to determine the balance of the ACL and resulting provision for credit losses. The provision for unfunded commitments represents expected losses on unfunded loan commitments that are expected to result in outstanding loan balances. The allowance for unfunded commitments is included in "Other liabilities" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The amount of provision recorded in each period was the amount required such that the total ACL reflected the appropriate balance as determined under CECL. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a $1.2 million provision for loan losses while $5.1 million was recognized for the comparable period of 2022. The provision for the current quarter was driven in part by the loan growth experienced during the period, combined with updated prepayment speed estimates which are a key assumption in the CECL model. The higher interest rate environment has resulted in slower prepayment speed estimates, thus increasing the projected ACL required. Loss driver assumptions were also updated with the lower loss rate estimates resulting in offsetting reductions to the ACL reserve estimate. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 included a one-time loan loss provision of $12.2 million recorded to establish an initial ACL for non-PCD loans acquired from GrandSouth in accordance with our CECL model. This was the primary contributor to the provision for the year to date period which totaled $16.4 million. The balance of the change was related to the updated prepayment speeds previously discussed.
In addition, a reversal of provision for unfunded commitments of $1.2 million was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2023 related primarily to a reduction in the amount of available lines of credit outstanding. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 included a one-time initial provision for unfunded commitments of $1.9 million required for the GrandSouth acquisition which substantially offset the reversal recognized in the third quarter of 2023. For the same period in 2022, there was a reversal of provision for unfunded commitments of $1.2 million, related primarily to fluctuations in commitment levels combined with updated loss rate factors.
Additional discussion of our asset quality and credit metrics, which impact our provision for credit losses, is provided in the "Nonperforming Assets" and "Allowance for Credit Losses and Loan Loss Experience" sections following.
Noninterest Income
Our noninterest income amounted to $15.2 million and $16.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $42.9 million and $53.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Included in noninterest income were amounts totaling $0.9 million and $2.7 million in other gains for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1.4 million and $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Other gains are considered "non-core" as they are generally outside the normal course of business.
The following table presents the primary components of noninterest income. The drivers of larger fluctuations between periods are discussed below the table.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased $0.5 million, or 11.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, and increased $1.6 million, or 14.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The increase was driven by the higher number of new customers and transaction accounts generating fees from both the GrandSouth acquisition and organic growth.
Other service charges and fees - bankcard interchange income, net represents interchange income from debit and credit card transactions, net of associated interchange expense, and decreased $0.8 million, or 25.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 and decreased $5.3 million, or 42.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was a result of the Durbin Amendment limitation on debit card interchange fees becoming applicable to the Company beginning in July 2022.
Other service charges and fees - other includes items such as ATM charges, wire transfer fees, safety deposit box rentals, fees from sales of personalized checks, and check cashing fees. Revenue fluctuates based primarily on customer activity, number of accounts and volume of transactions in each period. Also included in this category is SBA guarantee servicing fees and related servicing rights amortization which fluctuate based on the volume of and prepayment speeds on SBA loans serviced which have slowed down in the current year. The increase in this item for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $0.8 million, or 9.4%, was due in large part to lower MSR amortization expense given the current high interest rate environment.
Fees from presold mortgage loans amounted to $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 13.6%, from the same time period in 2022. Mortgage fees decreased $0.7 million, or 34.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period due to the general increase in market interest rates starting in 2022 which have resulted in continued lower volumes of home mortgage refinancing and new originations into 2023.
SBA loan sale gains increased $0.6 million, or 129.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 while year to date results continue to lag with a decrease of $2.5 million, or 55.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to slower loan originations earlier in the current year combined with lower premiums available on SBA loan sales given the current market conditions.
Other gains, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 consisted primarily of death benefits realized on BOLI policies. There were no large or unusual transactions in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 giving rise to gains or losses.

Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses totaled $62.2 million and $48.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $198.0 million and $149.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Included in noninterest expenses were merger and acquisition costs totaling zero and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $13.5 million and $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The merger and acquisition costs were primarily related to the GrandSouth acquisition and are considered "non-core" as they are outside the normal course of business. It is not expected that there will be material additional merger and acquisition charges. The following table presents the primary components of noninterest expenses:

In general, the 27.8% and 32.4% increases for the quarter and year to date period, respectively, in noninterest expenses were driven by by increased salary and benefit expense (up $7.4 million and $18.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year) and other facilities and support-related costs associated with the acquisition of eight GrandSouth branch locations and related branch and support personnel.
In addition, contributing to the higher noninterest expense in the current year periods were merger and acquisition expenses of zero and $13.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and higher intangible amortization related to the GrandSouth acquisition, which increased $1.1 million and $3.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in the prior year, respectively.
Also contributing to higher noninterest expense were increases in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 for data processing, professional fees, software expense, and advertising, as well as travel and training (included in "other operating expenses") related to the GrandSouth acquisition, including the transition of new customers and overlapping pre-conversion costs associated with the core processing system prior to the full system integration late in the quarter. Included in the increase for "other operating expenses" is FDIC insurance premiums which increased $1.4 million and $3.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The higher FDIC insurance premiums were a function of acquired deposits from GrandSouth combined with the general FDIC rate increase effective January 1, 2023. Non-credit losses increased $0.7 million and $2.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year driven by an increase in check fraud experienced in the current year.
Also included in "other operating expenses" is a one-time charge of $2.4 million for the estimated termination costs associated with the Company's pension plan which we anticipate exiting during the fourth quarter of 2023.
Income Taxes
We recorded income tax expense of $7.8 million and $10.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 20.6% and 21.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $19.8 million and $28.4 million, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 21.0% and 20.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The fluctuations in effective tax rate between periods was attributable primarily to the amount of merger and acquisition expenses recorded each period resulting in non-deductible adjustments for tax purposes.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets at September 30, 2023 amounted to $12.0 billion, a $1.4 billion, or 12.7%, increase from December 31, 2022 due in large part to the GrandSouth acquisition, combined with organic growth during the year.
Total loans at September 30, 2023 amounted to $8.0 billion, a $1.4 billion, or 20.4%, increase from December 31, 2022 related primarily to the GrandSouth acquisition which contributed $1.02 billion to the increase. Organic growth (exclusive of acquired loans) amounted to $341.8 million for the first nine months of 2023 or an annualized growth rate of 5.9%. The mix of our loan portfolio remained substantially the same at September 30, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022. The majority of our real estate loans were personal and commercial loans where real estate provides additional security for the loan. Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements presents additional detailed information regarding our mix of loans. We have no notable concentrations in geographies or industries, including in office or hospitality categories. The Company's exposure to non-owner occupied commercial office loans represents approximately 5.8% of the total portfolio and the average size of these loans is $1.4 million. Non-owner occupied office loans are generally in non-metro markets and the top 10 loans in this category represent less than 2% of the total loan portfolio.
The composition of our investment portfolio remained substantially the same as at December 31, 2022, and continued to reflect our investment strategy of maintaining an appropriate level of liquidity while providing a stable source of income. The investment portfolio also provides a balance to interest rate risk and credit risk in other categories of the balance sheet while providing a vehicle for the investment of available funds, furnishing liquidity, and supplying securities to pledge as required collateral for certain deposits. Total investment securities decreased $220.3 million from December 31, 2022 to total $2.6 billion at September 30, 2023 due to the utilization of cash flows from amortizing securities to fund loan growth. There were no purchases of investment securities during the the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and sales were limited to those investment securities acquired from GrandSouth which were liquidated at their recorded fair value upon close of the transaction or shortly thereafter. There was no gain or loss recorded on the sale of acquired securities.
The unrealized loss on available for sale securities totaled $521.7 million, representing a deterioration (higher unrealized loss) of $77.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company has the intent to hold, and will not be required to sell, investments with unrealized losses until maturity or recovery of the amortized cost as market conditions change. Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements presents additional detailed information regarding our mix of investments and the unrealized losses for each category.
We invest primarily in securities issued by GSEs including FHLMC, FNMA, GNMA, and SBA, each of which guarantees the repayment of the securities. Nearly all of our mortgage-backed securities are issued by GSEs and are traded in liquid secondary markets. The state and local government investments are comprised almost entirely of highly-rated municipal bonds issued by state and local governments throughout the nation. We have no significant concentration of bond holdings from one state or local government entity. We have evaluated the unrealized losses on individual securities at September 30, 2023 and determined them to be of a temporary nature due primarily to interest rate factors and not credit quality concerns. In arriving at this conclusion, we reviewed third-party credit ratings and considered the severity of the impairment.
Total deposits amounted to $10.2 billion at September 30, 2023, an increase of $1.0 billion, or 10.9%, from December 31, 2022. Deposits acquired from GrandSouth contributed $1.05 billion while organic market growth (excluding wholesale funding) totaled $220.7 million since year end for an annualized growth rate of 3.0%. Brokered deposits decreased $249.4 from year end. We continue to have a diversified and granular deposit base which has remained stable with continued growth in core deposits, primarily money market accounts. As of September 30, 2023, the estimated insured deposits totaled $6.4 billion or 63.0% of total deposits. In addition, we had collateralized deposits at that date of $804.6 million such that approximately 70.9% of our total deposits were insured or collateralized at September 30, 2023.
Our deposit mix has remained consistent historically and has not significantly changed with the addition of GrandSouth as presented in the table below. There has been no notable shift in deposits from noninterest-bearing to interest-bearing during 2023 to date other than from the acquired deposits driving a moderate change in mix.

Nonperforming Assets
NPAs are defined as nonaccrual loans, modifications to borrowers in financial distress, loans past due 90 or more days and still accruing interest, foreclosed real estate, and prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-02, accruing TDRs. NPAs are summarized as follows:

As shown in the table above, total NPAs increased slightly from year end related primarily to the $0.5 million increase in foreclosed real estate as of September 30, 2023. At September 30, 2023, total nonaccrual loans amounted to $26.9 million, a decrease of $1.6 million from $28.5 million at December 31, 2022. Modifications to borrowers experiencing financial distress, which replaced the accounting for TDRs, increased as additional loans have been modified throughout the year.
"Commercial and industrial" is the largest category of nonaccrual loans, at $9.8 million, or 36.4% of total nonaccrual loans, followed by "Commercial real estate - owner occupied" at $8.0 million, or 29.7% of total nonaccrual loans. Included in those categories are nonaccrual SBA loans totaling $14.3 million at September 30, 2023, or 53.3%, of total nonaccrual loans which have $5.7 million in guarantees from the SBA.
As reflected in Note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, total classified loans increased 6.0% to $51.4 million at September 30, 2023 compared to $48.5 million at December 31, 2022. The majority of the increase was attributable to commercial real estate and home equity loans. Special mention loans declined 5.6%

Page 56
from $39.0 million at December 31, 2022 to $36.8 million at September 30, 2023. The majority of the decrease was attributable to commercial real estate loans.
Allowance for Credit Losses and Loan Loss Experience
Our ACL is based on the total amount of loan losses that are expected over the remaining life of the loan portfolio. Our estimate of credit losses on loans is determined using a complex model that relies on reasonable and supportable forecasts and historical loss information to determine the balance of the ACL and resulting provision for credit losses. The ACL is measured on a collective pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist based primarily on discounted cash flows computed for each loan in a pool based on its individual characteristics. When we determine that foreclosure is probable or when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty 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 selling costs as appropriate. We have reviewed the collateral for our nonperforming assets, including nonaccrual loans, and have included this review among the factors considered in the evaluation of the ACL.
We have no foreign loans and do not engage in significant lease financing or highly leveraged transactions. Commercial loans are diversified among a variety of industries. The majority of our real estate loans are primarily personal and commercial loans where real estate provides additional security for the loan. Collateral for virtually all of these loans is located within our principal market area.
Fluctuations in the ACL each period are based on loan mix and growth, changes in the levels of nonperforming loans, charge-off and recovery activity, economic forecasts impacting loss drivers, other assumptions and inputs to the CECL model, and as occurred in 2023, adjustments for acquired loan portfolios. Our ACL increased $17.2 million at September 30, 2023, as compared to year end, to a total of $108.2 million. The increase was driven by the acquisition of GrandSouth as discussed previously in the "Provision for Credit Losses" section above and in Note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Purchase accounting adjustments included a "Day 1" ACL of $5.6 million recorded for PCD loans and an initial "Day 2" provision for loan losses of $12.2 million related to non-PCD loans in the GrandSouth portfolio. Increases in the ACL related to loan growth and updated prepayment speed estimates in the CECL model were offset by net charge-off activity during the period.
For the periods indicated, the following table summarizes our balances of loans outstanding, average loans outstanding, ACL, charge-offs and recoveries, and key ratios:

We believe the ACL is adequate at each period end presented. It must be emphasized, however, that the determination of the allowances using our procedures and methods rests upon various judgments and assumptions about economic conditions and other factors affecting loans. No assurance can be given that we will not in any particular period sustain loan losses that are sizable in relation to the amounts reserved or that subsequent evaluations of the loan portfolio, in light of conditions and factors then prevailing, will not require significant changes in the ACL or future charges to earnings. See “Critical Accounting Policies – Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

Page 57
and Allowance for Unfunded Commitments” in Note 1 to the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for more information.
In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our ACL and the value of our collateral-dependent loans. Such agencies may require us to recognize adjustments to the ACL based on their judgments about information available at the time of their examinations.
Allowance for Unfunded Commitments
In addition to the ACL on loans, we maintain an allowance for lending-related commitments such as unfunded loan commitments. We estimate expected credit losses associated with these commitments over the contractual period in which we are exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable. The allowance for lending-related commitments on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for unfunded commitments expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a reversal of provision for unfunded commitments of $1.5 million, which includes an initial provision of $1.9 million for the acquisition of GrandSouth and a provision reversal of $3.4 million related to decreases in the levels and fluctuations in the mix of outstanding loan commitments. For the comparable period of 2022, we recognized a reversal of provision for unfunded commitments of $1.2 million related to lower levels of unfunded commitments for the period. The allowance for unfunded commitments of $11.8 million and $13.3 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, are classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheets within "Other liabilities."

Liquidity, Commitments, and Contingencies
Our liquidity is determined by our ability to convert assets to cash or acquire alternative sources of funds to meet the needs of our customers who are withdrawing or borrowing funds, and to maintain required reserve levels, pay expenses and operate the Company on an ongoing basis. Our primary liquidity sources are net income from operations, cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and other short-term investments. Our securities portfolio has a high percentage of amortizing mortgage-backed securities generating monthly cash flows. In addition, the portfolio is comprised almost entirely of readily marketable securities, which could also be sold to provide cash. We also maintain available lines of credit from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve, as well as federal funds lines from several correspondent banks which are summarized below.
At September 30, 2023, the Company had three sources of readily available borrowing capacity:
•An approximately $1.4 billion line of credit with the FHLB (of which $301.7 million and $221.8 million were outstanding at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively);
•An approximately $825.9 million line of credit through the Federal Reserve's discount window and its Bank Term Funding Program (of which none was outstanding at September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022); and,
•Federal funds lines with several correspondent banks totaling $265.0 million (of which none were outstanding at September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022).
Our overall on-balance sheet liquidity ratio was 14.4% at September 30, 2023. compared to 26.0% at December 31, 2022. We define our liquidity ratio as net liquid assets (cash, unpledged securities and other marketable assets) as a percentage of our net liabilities (unpledged deposits and borrowings). The decrease in on-balance sheet liquidity is primarily related to the higher level of investment securities pledged during the year to date to increase our borrowing availability. Our total liquidity ratio, including the $2.2 billion in available lines of credit at quarter end, was 30.2% as of September 30, 2023. The increase in available lines of credit during 2023 was a result of additional loan and security collateral being transferred to the FHLB and the Federal Reserve to enhance the levels of off-balance sheet liquidity availability to meet demands, as necessary. We believe our liquidity sources, including unused lines of credit, are at an acceptable level and remain adequate to meet our operating needs in the foreseeable future.

Page 58
The amount and timing of our contractual obligations and commercial commitments have not changed materially since December 31, 2022, the detail of which is presented in the Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments table of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, we are not involved in any legal proceedings that, in our opinion, could have a material effect on our consolidated financial position.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments
Off-balance sheet arrangements include transactions, agreements, or other contractual arrangements pursuant to which we have obligations or provide guarantees on behalf of an unconsolidated entity. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements of this kind other than letters of credit and repayment guarantees associated with our trust preferred securities.
Derivative financial instruments include futures, forwards, interest rate swaps, options contracts, and other financial instruments with similar characteristics. We have not engaged in significant derivative activities through September 30, 2023.
Capital Resources
The Company is regulated by the Federal Reserve and is subject to the securities registration and public reporting regulations of the SEC. Our banking subsidiary is also regulated by the Federal Reserve and the North Carolina Office of the Commissioner of Banks ("NCCOB"). We must comply with regulatory capital requirements established by the Federal Reserve and the NCCOB. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. We are not aware of any recommendations of regulatory authorities or otherwise which, if they were to be implemented, would have a material effect on our liquidity, capital resources, or operations.
Under Basel III standards and capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
The Federal Reserve's capital standards require us to maintain minimum ratios of “common equity tier 1” capital to total risk-weighted assets, “tier 1” capital to total risk-weighted assets, and total capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.50%, 6.00% and 8.00%, respectively. Common equity tier 1 capital is comprised of common stock and related surplus, plus retained earnings, and is reduced by goodwill and other intangible assets, net of associated deferred tax liabilities. Tier 1 capital is comprised of common equity tier 1 capital plus "additional tier 1 capital", which includes non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and trust preferred securities. Total risk-based capital is comprised of tier 1 capital plus qualifying subordinated debentures, and certain adjustments, the largest of which is our ACL and allowance for unfunded commitments. The Company has elected to exclude AOCI related primarily to available for sale securities from common equity tier 1 capital. Risk-weighted assets refer to our on- and off-balance sheet exposures, adjusted for their related risk levels using formulas set forth in Federal Reserve regulations.
In addition to the risk-based capital requirements described above, we are subject to a leverage capital requirement, which calls for a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital (as defined above) to quarterly average total assets of 3.00% to 5.00%, depending upon the institution’s composite ratings as determined by its regulators. The Federal Reserve has not advised us of any requirement specifically applicable to us.
At September 30, 2023, our capital ratios exceeded the regulatory minimum ratios discussed above. The common equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets capital ratios at September 30, 2023 declined as compared to year end related primarily to the GrandSouth acquisition and organic asset growth. The increase in the Tier 1 leverage ratio as of September 30, 2023 as compared to that of year end is related to Tier 1 capital growing at a faster rate than quarterly average tangible assets. The following table presents the capital ratios for the Company and the regulatory minimums discussed above for the periods indicated:

The Bank is also subject to capital requirements that do not vary materially from the Company’s capital ratios presented above. At September 30, 2023, the Bank exceeded the minimum ratios established by the regulatory authorities.
In addition to the regulatory capital requirements, we monitor the Company's tangible common equity ratio which is a non-GAAP measurement calculated as total capital less intangible assets, as a percent of total assets net of intangible assets. AOCI is included in the Company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio which was 6.49% at September 30, 2023, an increase of ten basis points from December 31, 2022 due to higher earnings and improvement the level of AOCI.
Stock Repurchase Plans
During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company did not maintain, adopt, modify or terminate a stock repurchase plan operated under the provisions of Rules 10b-18 or Rule 10b5-1(c) of the SEC or otherwise.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates, and equity prices. The Company’s market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk inherent in the normal course of lending and deposit-taking activities. We are also exposed to market risk in our investing activities. We do not have any trading assets or activities.
Interest Rate Risk
Net interest income is our most significant component of earnings and we consider interest rate risk to be our most significant market risk. Our goal is to structure our asset/liability composition to maximize net interest income while managing interest rate risk so as to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and capital in either a rising or declining interest rate environment. Profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact our earnings because the interest rates of the underlying assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis.
Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of three complementary modeling tools: static gap analysis, earnings simulation modeling, and economic value simulation (net present value estimation). Each of these models measures changes in a variety of interest rate scenarios. While each of the interest rate risk models has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive view of the magnitude of our interest rate risk, the level of risk through time, and the amount of exposure to changes in certain interest rate relationships. Static gap, which measures aggregate repricing values, is less utilized because it only measures the magnitude of the timing differences and does not address repricing lags, market influences, or management actions. Earnings simulation and economic value models, which more effectively measure the cash flow and optionality impacts, are utilized by management on a regular basis and are discussed further below. From the various model results and our

Page 60
expectations regarding future interest rate movements, the national, regional and local economies, and other financial and business risk factors, we quantify the overall magnitude of interest sensitivity risk and then determine appropriate strategies and practices governing asset growth and pricing, funding sources and pricing, and off-balance sheet commitments.
Earnings Simulation Analysis
We use net interest income simulations which measure the short-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest. The model calculates an earnings estimate based on current and projected balances and rates, incorporating our current financial position with assumptions regarding future business to calculate net interest income under varying hypothetical rate scenarios. This method is subject to the accuracy of the assumptions that underlie the process, but it provides a better analysis of the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates than other analyses, such as the static gap analysis.
Assumptions used in the model are derived from historical trends and management’s outlook. The model assumes a static balance sheet with cash flows reinvested in similar instruments to maintain the balance sheet levels and current composition. Actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for our balance sheet instruments are input to the model. The model incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the impact of changing interest rates on the prepayment rate of certain assets and liabilities. Because these assumptions are inherently uncertain, actual results may differ from simulated results.
Different interest rate scenarios and yield curves are used to measure the sensitivity of earnings to changing interest rates in both a "shocked" instantaneous move and a "ramped" move of rates. Interest rates on different asset and liability accounts move differently when the prime rate changes and such assumptions are reflected in the different rate scenarios. The model does not take into account any future actions that management may take to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes, and it is our strategy to proactively change the volume and mix of our balance sheet in order to mitigate our interest rate risk.
There has been no significant change in the Company's estimated net interest income sensitivity position from December 31, 2022. From a net interest income perspective, the Company has been fairly neutral historically with no significant change in the short-term (within a twelve-month period) and within the lower ranges (+ - 100-200 basis points) of interest rate changes. Starting in 2022, the Company's sensitivity position shifted somewhat such that, in the short-term it is projected that net interest income will likely fall in both a rising and falling rate environment. This position is due in part to the changing market characteristics of certain loan and deposit products as well as to the current shape of the yield curve. The rapid rate increases in 2022 resulted in a steepening of the yield curve on the short end (within one year), while the longer end of the curve has inverted between one and ten years, meaning that the yield on short-term instruments (less than one year) are higher than longer-term instruments (ten years). A flat or inverted interest rate curve is an unfavorable interest rate environment for many financial institutions, including the Bank, as short-term interest rates generally drive our deposit pricing and longer-term interest rates generally drive loan pricing. When these rates converge or invert, the profit spread we realize between loan yields and deposit rates narrows, which pressures our NIM.
With regard to rising rates, with an immediate increase or shock in market rates over the short-term (twelve month horizon), we would expect to realize a decline in net interest income, although not to the extent projected in a declining rate environment. This is due in part to the composition of our loan portfolio which is comprised of approximately 20% variable rate loans which could immediately reprice, thus limiting the magnitude of the impact of rate increases given that the majority of our portfolio is at fixed rates. In addition, the model includes an assumption of a quick repricing up of the funding base in a rising rate environment, and our recent shift to higher-cost wholesale funding and short-term borrowings in our funding mix has lead to a narrowing of the interest rate spread in the projection. As previously noted, these assumptions are inherently uncertain, and actual results may differ from simulated results. While we believe rates may increase again moderately in the remainder of 2023, the consensus is that the market rates may begin to stabilize and there is a possibility that the Federal Reserve may start to reduce rates in 2024. We would expect net interest income to decline somewhat in a decreasing interest rate environment, as interest-earning assets reprice to lower rates and interest-bearing deposits repricing may lag given continued market competition for deposits.
Economic Value Simulation
Economic value simulation is used to calculate the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities over different interest rate environments. Economic values are calculated based on discounted cash flow analysis. The net economic

Page 61
value of equity is the economic value of all assets minus the economic value of all liabilities assuming a liquidation of the current balance sheet. The change in net economic value over different rate environments is an indication of the longer-term earnings capability of the balance sheet. The same assumptions are generally used in the economic value simulation as in the earnings simulation, including immediate and parallel rate shocks and static assumptions for deposit average decay rate and average lives.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s economic value of equity ("EVE") was generally liability sensitive in a rising interest rate environment, such that the value of EVE would decline in rising rates. The effect is similar in a falling rate scenario, although to a lower degree. The increase in EVE exposure to rising rates which occurred starting in 2022 was primarily due to the composition of the consolidated balance sheets combined with the pricing characteristics and assumptions of certain deposits. Specifically, starting in 2022, non-maturity deposits, generally with lower betas, have decreased and were replaced with short-term FHLB advances. There has been no material change to the composition of the balance sheet or our deposits and funding mix since year end as such, no significant change to Company's estimated EVE position.
Additional discussion concerning our exposure to interest rate risk is presented in Item 7A of the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Inflation
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires the financial position and operating results to be measured principally in terms of historic dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.
Nearly all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature, and as such, changes in interest rates (as discussed above) generally affect the financial condition of the Company to a greater degree than changes in the rate of inflation. Although interest rates are influenced by changes in the inflation rate, they do not necessarily change at the same rate or in the same magnitude as the inflation rate. Inflation affects the Company’s results of operations mainly through increased operating costs, and the impact of inflation on banks in general is normally not as significant as its influence on those businesses that have large investments in plant and inventories. We review pricing of our products and services, as well as our controllable operating and labor costs in light of current and expected costs due to inflation, to mitigate the inflationary impact on financial performance to the extent possible.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on the evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in allowing timely decisions regarding disclosure to be made about material information required to be included in our periodic reports with the SEC. In addition, no change in our internal control over financial reporting has occurred during, or subsequent to, the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information
Item 1 – Legal Proceedings
Various legal proceedings may arise in the ordinary course of business and may be pending or threatened against the Company and its subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are involved in any pending legal proceedings that management believes are material to the Company or its consolidated financial position.  If an exposure were to be identified, it is the Company’s policy to establish and accrue appropriate reserves during the accounting period in which a loss is deemed to be probable and the amount is determinable.

Investing in shares of our common stock involves certain risks, including those identified and described in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as well as cautionary statements contained in this Form 10-Q, including those under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements” set forth in the forepart of this Form 10-Q, risks and matters described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the SEC.

Under the Clawback Policy, the Company may recoup from the Covered Officers erroneously awarded compensation received within a look-back period of the three completed fiscal years preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement to correct a material error.
