VALLEY NATIONAL BANCORP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial state
ments of Valley National Bancorp, a New Jersey Corporation (Valley) include the accounts of Valley National Bank (the Bank) and all other entities in which Valley has a controlling financial interest. All inter-company transactions and balances have been e
liminated. The accounting and reporting policies of Valley conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and general practices within the financial services industry. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, Valley does not consolidate statutory trusts established for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and related trust common securities. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly Valley’s financial position, results of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows at June 30, 2023 and for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or any subsequent interim period.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and industry practice have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Valley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Significant Estimates.
In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. Material estimates that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgment and are particularly susceptible to change include: the allowance for credit losses, the evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment and income taxes. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are deemed necessary. While management uses its best judgment, actual amounts or results could differ significantly from those estimates. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these material estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Also, future amounts and values could differ materially from those estimates due to changes in values and circumstances after the balance sheet date
.

Business Combinations
Acquisitions
Bank Leumi Le-Israel Corporation.
On April 1, 2022, Valley completed its acquisition of Bank Leumi Le-Israel Corporation, the U.S. subsidiary of Bank
Leumi Le-Israel B.M., and parent company of Bank Leumi USA, collectively referred to as "Bank Leumi USA". Bank Leumi USA maintained its headquarters in New York City with commercial banking offices in Chicago, Los Angeles, Palo Alto, and Aventura, Florida. The common shareholders of Bank Leumi USA received
3.8025
shares of Valley common stock and $
5.08
in cash for each Bank Leumi USA common share that they owned. As a result, Valley issued approximately
85
million shares of common stock and paid $
113.4
million in cash in the transaction. Based on Valley’s closing stock price on March 31, 2022, the
transaction was valued at
$
1.2
billion, inclusive of the value of options. As a result of the acquisition, Bank Leumi Le-Israel B.M. owned approximately
14
percent of Valley's common stock as of
April 1, 2022
.
Merger expenses, primarily consisting of salary and employee benefit expense, totaled $
4.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. There were
no
merger expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Merger expenses totaled $
54.5
million and $
58.9
million
for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively,
9
and largely consisted of salary and employee benefit expense, professional and legal fees and technology related costs within non-interest expense on the consolidated statements of income.
The following table sets forth assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Bank Leumi USA acquisition, at their estimated fair values as of the closing date of the transaction:

with exercise
prices that exceed the average market price per share of Valley’s common stock during the periods presented may have an anti-dilutive effect on the diluted earnings per common share calculation and therefore are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation along with restricted stock units. Potential anti-dilutive weighted common shares totaled approximately
7.2
million and
2.2
million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and
3.0

New Authoritative Accounting Guidance
New Accounting Guidance Adopted in 2023
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2022-01, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging –Portfolio Layer Method” expands and clarifies the current guidance on accounting for fair value hedge basis adjustments under the portfolio layer method for both single-layer and multiple-layer hedges. This method allows entities to designate multiple hedging relationships with a single closed portfolio, and therefore a larger portion of the interest rate risk associated with such a portfolio is eligible to be hedged. ASU No. 2022-01 also clarifies that no assets may be added to a closed portfolio once it is designated in a portfolio layer method hedge. Valley adopted ASU No. 2022-01 on January 1, 2023 and the guidance did not have a significant impact on Valley's consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” eliminates the troubled debt restructuring (TDR) accounting model for creditors, such as Valley, that
12
have adopted Topic 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” ASU No. 2022-02 requires all loan modifications to be accounted for under the general loan modification guidance in Subtopic 310-20. On a prospective basis, entities are subject to new disclosure requirements covering modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Public business entities within the scope of the Topic 326 vintage disclosure requirements are also required to prospectively disclose current-period gross write-off information by vintage. Entities can elect to adopt the guidance on TDRs using either a prospective or modified retrospective transition method. Valley adopted ASU No. 2022-02 on January 1, 2023 and elected to apply the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of ASU No. 2022-02 resulted in a $
1.4
million decrease in the allowance for loan losses, and a $
990
thousand increase to retained earnings, net of taxes. See Note
8
for required disclosures.
New Accounting Guidance Issued in 2023
ASU No. 2023-02, Investments –“Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method,” is intended to improve the accounting and disclosures for investments in certain tax credit structures. ASU No. 2023-02 allows the option to apply the proportional amortization method to account for investments made primarily for the purpose of receiving income tax credits and other income tax benefits when certain requirements are met. ASU No. 2023-02 will be effective on January 1, 2024 and it can be early adopted in any interim period. The new guidance can also be applied either on a modified retrospective or a retrospective basis, with any adjustments resulting from adoption recognized in earnings on the date of adoption. Valley is currently evaluating the impact of ASU No. 2023-02, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on Valley's consolidated financial statements.
Note 6.
Fair Value Measurement of Assets and Liabilities
ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement” establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
•
Level 1
- Unadjusted exchange quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, or identical liabilities traded as assets that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
•
Level 2
- Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly (i.e., quoted prices on similar assets) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
•
Level 3
- Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring and Non-Recurring Basis
The following tables present the assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as reported on the consolidated statements of financial condition at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The assets presented under “non-recurring fair value measurements” in the tables below are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments under certain circumstances (e.g., when an impairment loss is recognized).

Derivative financial instruments are included in this category.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following valuation techniques were used for financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis. All the valuation techniques described below apply to the unpaid principal balance, excluding any accrued interest or dividends at the measurement date. Interest income and expense are recorded within the consolidated statements of income depending on the nature of the instrument using the effective interest method based on acquired discount or premium.
Equity securitie
s. The fair value of equity securities consists of a publicly traded mutual fund, a Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) investment fund and an investment related to the development of new financial technologies that are carried at quoted prices in active markets.
15
Equity securities at NAV
. Valley also has privately held CRA funds at fair value measured at NAV using the most recently available financial information from the investee. Investments measured at NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient are excluded from fair value hierarchy levels in the tables above.
Trading debt securities
. The fair value of trading debt securitie
s, consisting of U.S. Treasury securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs at
June 30, 2023. At December 31, 2022, trading debt securities consisted of
U.S. Treasury securities and municipal bonds reported at fair value utilizing
Level 1
and Level 2 inputs, respectively. The prices for municipal bonds investments were derived from market quotations and matrix pricing obtained through an independent pricing service. Management reviews the data and assumptions used in pricing the securities by its third-party provider to
ensure the highest level of significant inputs are derived from market observable data.
Available for sale debt securities.
U.S. Treasury securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs. The majority of other investment securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The prices for these instruments are obtained through an independent pricing service or dealer market participants with whom Valley has historically transacted both purchases and sales of investment securities. Prices obtained from these sources include prices derived from market quotations and matrix pricing. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. Management reviews the data and assumptions used in pricing the securities by its third-party provider to ensure the highest level of significant inputs are derived from market observable data. In addition, Valley reviews the volume and level of activity for all available for sale debt securities and attempts to identify transactions which may not be orderly or reflective of a significant level of activity and volume.
Loans held for sale.
Residential mortgage loans originated for sale are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The fair values were calculated utilizing quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The market prices represent a delivery price, which reflects the underlying price each institution would pay Valley for an immediate sale of an aggregate pool of mortgages. Non-performance risk did not materially impact the fair value of mortgage loans held for sale at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 based on the short duration these assets were held, and the credit quality of these loans.
Derivatives.
Derivatives are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The fair values of Valley’s derivatives are determined using third-party prices that are based on discounted cash flow analysis using observed market inputs, such as the Overnight Index Swap and Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) curves. The fair value of mortgage banking derivatives, consisting of interest rate lock commitments to fund residential mortgage loans and forward commitments for the future delivery of such loans (including certain loans held for sale at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022), is determined based on the current market prices for similar instruments. The fair values of most of the derivatives incorporate credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, to account for potential nonperformance risk of Valley and its counterparties. The credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of Valley’s derivatives at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis
The following valuation techniques were used for certain non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, including collateral dependent loans reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral and foreclosed assets, which are reported at fair value upon initial recognition or subsequent impairment as described below.
Non-performing loans held for sale
. Valley transferred
one
non-performing construction loan totaling $
10.0
million, net of charge-offs, to loans held for sale at June 30, 2023. The transfer at the loan's fair value resulted in a $
4.2
million charge-off to the allowance of loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The fair value of the loan was determined using Level 2 inputs, including bids from a third party broker engaged to solicit interest from potential purchasers. The broker coordinated loan level due diligence with interested parties and established a
16
formal bidding process in which each participant was required to provide an indicative non-binding bid. Fair value was determined based on a non-binding sale agreement selected by Valley during the bidding process that is expected to close during the third quarter 2023.
Collateral dependent loans
. Collateral dependent loans are loans when foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and substantially all of the repayment is expected from the collateral. Collateral dependent loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs, consisting of individual third-party appraisals that may be adjusted based on certain discounting criteria. Certain real estate appraisals may be discounted based on specific market data by location and property type. At June 30, 2023, collateral dependent loans were individually re-measured and reported at fair value through direct loan charge-offs to the allowance for loan losses based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. At June 30, 2023, collateral dependent loans with a total amortized cost of $
125.0
million, including our taxi medallion loan portfolio, were reduced by specific allowance for loan losses allocations totaling $
61.0
million to a reported total net carrying amount of $
64.0
million.
Foreclosed assets
. Certain foreclosed assets (consisting of other real estate owned and other repossessed assets included in other assets), upon initial recognition and transfer from loans, are re-measured and reported at fair value using Level 3 inputs, consisting of a third-party appraisal less estimated cost to sell. When an asset is acquired, the excess of the loan balance over fair value, less estimated selling costs, is charged to the allowance for loan losses. If further declines in the estimated fair value of the asset occur, an asset is re-measured and reported at fair value through a write-down recorded in non-interest expense.
There were
no
adjustments to the appraisals of foreclosed assets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Other Fair Value Disclosures
ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis.
The fair value estimates presented in the following table were based on pertinent market data and relevant information on the financial instruments available as of the valuation date. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire portfolio of financial instruments. Because no market exists for a portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates may be based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on existing balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. For instance, Valley has certain fee-generating business lines (e.g., its mortgage servicing operations, trust and investment management departments) that were not considered in these estimates since these activities are not financial instruments. In addition, the tax implications 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.

Within the available for sale debt securities portfolio, the total number of security positions in an unrealized loss position was
725
and
730
at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of available for sale debt securities that were pledged to secure public deposits, repurchase agreements, lines of credit, and for other purposes required by law was $
847.1
million.
The contractual maturities of available for sale debt securities at June 30, 2023 are set forth in the following table. Maturities may differ from contractual maturities in residential mortgage-backed securities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be prepaid without any penalties. Therefore, residential mortgage-backed securities are not included in the maturity categories in the following summary.

The weighted average remaining expected life for residential mortgage-backed securities available for sale was

years at June 30, 2023.
Impairment Analysis of Available For Sale Debt Securities
Valley's available for sale debt securities portfolio includes corporate bonds and revenue bonds, among other securities. These types of securities may pose a higher risk of future impairment charges by Valley as a result of the changes in market interest rates, unpredictable nature of the U.S. economy and their potential negative effect on the future performance of the security issuers.
Available for sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions are evaluated for impairment related to credit losses on a quarterly basis. Based on a comparison of the present value of expected cash flows to the amortized cost, Valley recognized a credit related impairment of one corporate bond issued by Signature Bank resulting in a provision for credit losses and full charge-off of the bond totaling $
5.0
million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Valley also evaluated available for sale debt securities that are in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2023 included in the table above and has determined that the declines in fair value are mainly attributable to interest rates, credit spreads, market volatility and liquidity conditions, not credit quality or other factors. There was
no
impairment recognized during the
three months ended
June 30, 2023 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
The following table details the activity in the allowance for credit losses for the
six months ended
June 30, 2023.

Valley does not intend to sell any of its available for sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, and it is more likely than not that Valley will not be required to sell any of its securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis. None of the available for sale debt securities were past due as of June 30, 2023 and there was no allowance for credit losses for available for sale debt securities at June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022.

The contractual maturities of investments in debt securities held to maturity at June 30, 2023 are set forth in the table below. Maturities may differ from contractual maturities in residential mortgage-backed securities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be prepaid without any penalties. Therefore, residential mortgage-backed securities are not included in the maturity categories in the following summary.

Obligations of states and political subdivisions include municipal bonds and revenue bonds issued by various municipal corporations. At June 30, 2023, most of the obligations of states and political subdivisions were rated investment grade and a large portion of the "non-rated" category included tax exempt mortgage securities (TEMS) secured by Ginnie Mae securities. Trust preferred securities consist of non-rated single-issuer securities, issued by bank holding companies. Corporate and other debt securities in the non-rated category mostly consist of high quality foreign issued bonds.
Allowance for Credit Losses for Held to Maturity Debt Securities
Valley has a zero-loss expectation for certain securities within the held to maturity portfolio, and therefore it is not required to estimate an allowance for credit losses related to these securities under the CECL standard. After an evaluation of qualitative factors, Valley identified the following securities types which it believes qualify for this exclusion: U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, residential mortgage-backed securities issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and TEMS collateralized municipal bonds.

Credit Risk Management
For all of its loan types, Valley adheres to a credit policy designed to minimize credit risk while generating the maximum income given the level of risk appetite. Management reviews and approves these policies and procedures on a regular basis with subsequent approval by the Board of Directors annually. Credit authority relating to a
26
significant dollar percentage of the overall portfolio is centralized and controlled by the Credit Risk Management Division and by the Credit Committee. A reporting system supplements the management review process by providing management with frequent reports concerning loan production, loan quality, internal loan classification, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies, non-performing, and potential problem loans. Loan portfolio diversification is an important factor utilized by Valley to manage its risk across business sectors and through cyclical economic circumstances. Additionally, Valley does not accept crypto assets as loan collateral for any of its loan portfolio classes. See Valley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for further details.

Credit quality indicators.
Valley utilizes an internal loan classification system as a means of reporting problem loans within commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, and construction loan portfolio classes. Under Valley’s internal risk rating system, loan relationships could be classified as "Pass," "Special Mention," "Substandard," "Doubtful," and "Loss." Substandard loans include loans that exhibit well-defined weakness and are characterized by the distinct possibility that Valley will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as Doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, based on currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans classified as Loss are those considered uncollectible with insignificant value and are charged-off immediately to the allowance for loan losses, and, therefore, not presented in the table below. Loans that do not currently pose a sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but pose weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention are deemed Special Mention. Pass rated loans do not currently pose any identified risk and can range from the highest to average quality, depending on the degree of potential risk. Risk ratings are updated any time the situation warrants.
28
The following table presents the internal loan classification risk by loan portfolio class by origination year based on the most recent analysis performed at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, as well as the gross loan charge-offs by year of origination for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.
From time to time, Valley may
extend, restructure, or otherwise modify the terms of existing loans, on a case-by-case basis, to remain competitive and retain certain customers, as well as assist other customers who may be experiencing financial difficulties. Prior to 2023, a loan was classified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) if the borrower was experiencing financial difficulties and a concession has been made at the time of such modification.
Effective January 1, 2023, Valley adopted ASU No. 2022-02 which eliminated the accounting guidance for TDR loans while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan modifications by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Valley adopted ASU No. 2022-02 using the modified retrospective transition method. At the date of adoption, Valley was no longer required to utilize a loan-level discounted cash flow approach for determining the allowance for certain modified loans previously classified as TDR loans. As a result, Valley elected to utilize its collective reserve methodology for pools of loans that share common risk characteristic for determining the reserves for the modified loans formerly classified as TDR loans. This change resulted in the recognition of a cumulative-effect adjustment which decreased the allowance for loan losses with an offsetting entry to retained earnings, net of deferred taxes, at January 1, 2023.

The following table shows the amortized cost basis of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty at June 30, 2023 that were modified during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, disaggregated by class of financing receivable and type of modification. Each of the types of modifications was less than one percent of their respective loan categories.

Collateral dependent loans.
Loans are collateral-dependent when the debtor is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale or operation of the collateral. When Valley determines that foreclosure is probable, the collateral dependent loan balances are written down to the estimated current fair value (less estimated selling costs) resulting in an immediate charge-off to the allowance, excluding any consideration for personal guarantees that may be pursued in the Bank’s collection process.

During the second quarter 2023, Valley performed the annual goodwill impairment test at its normal assessment date. The results of the 2023 annual impairment test resulted in
no
impairment of goodwill. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no triggering events that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any reporting unit below its carrying amount. There was no impairment of goodwill recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Loan servicing rights are accounted for using the amortization method. Under this method, Valley amortizes the loan servicing assets over the period of the economic life of the assets arising from estimated net servicing revenues. On a quarterly basis, Valley stratifies its loan servicing assets into groupings based on risk characteristics and assesses each group for impairment based on fair value. Impairment charges on loan servicing rights are recognized in earnings when the book value of a stratified group of loan servicing rights exceeds its estimated fair value. There was
no
net impairment recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Core deposits are amortized using an accelerated method over a period of
10.0
years. The line item labeled “Other” included in the table above primarily consists of customer lists, certain financial asset servicing contracts and covenants not to compete, which are amortized over their expected lives generally using a straight-line method and have a weighted average amortization period of approximately
13.4
years.
Valley evaluates core deposits and other intangibles for impairment when an indication of impairment exists.
No

Stock–Based Compensation
On April 25, 2023, Valley's shareholders approved the Valley National Bancorp 2023 Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2023 Plan). The purpose of the 2023 Plan is to provide additional long-term incentives to employees, directors and officers whose contributions are essential to the continued growth and success of Valley. Upon shareholder approval of the 2023 Plan, Valley ceased granting awards under the Valley National Bancorp 2021 Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2021 Plan). Under the 2023 Plan, Valley may issue awards to its officers, employees and non-employee directors in amounts up to
14.5
million shares of common stock, less one share for every share granted after December 31, 2022 under the 2021 Plan.
Restricted stock units are awarded as performance-based RSUs and time-based RSUs. The perfor
mance-based RSU awards are granted to certain officers and include RSUs with vesting conditions based upon certain levels of growth in Valley's tangible book value per share, plus dividends; and RSUs, with vesting conditions based upon Valley's total shareholder return as compared to its peer group.
The table below summarizes RSU awards granted and average grant date fair values for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Note 13.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Valley enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest and currency rates.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk.
Valley’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, Valley uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the payment of either fixed or variable-rate amounts in exchange for the receipt of variable or fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty, respectively.
During the second quarter 2023, Valley terminated
six
interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $
600
million. The terminated swaps, originally maturing between November 2024 to November 2026, were used to hedge the changes in cash flows associated with certain variable rate loans. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain totaling $
3.6
million reported in
accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders' equity
that will be amortized to interest income over the life of the previously hedged loans.
Fair Value Hedges of Fixed Rate Assets and Liabilities.
Valley is exposed to changes in the fair value of fixed-rate subordinated debt due to changes in interest rates. Valley uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in fair value on fixed rate debt instruments attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate. Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges involve the receipt of variable rate payments from a counterparty in exchange for Valley making fixed rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. For derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings.
Non-designated Hedges.
Derivatives not designated as hedges may be used to manage Valley’s exposure to interest rate movements or to provide a service to customers but do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting under U.S. GAAP. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not entered into for speculative purposes. Valley executes interest rate swaps with commercial lending customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. These interest rate swaps with customers are simultaneously offset by interest rate swaps that Valley executes with a third party, such that Valley minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As these interest rate swaps do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings.
Valley sometimes enters into risk participation agreements with external lenders where the banks are sharing their risk of default on the interest rate swaps on participated loans. Valley either pays or receives a fee depending on the participation type. Risk participation agreements are credit derivatives not designated as hedges. Credit derivatives are not speculative and are not used to manage interest rate risk in assets or liabilities. Changes in the fair value in credit derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. At June 30, 2023, Valley had
36
credit swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $
492.8
million related to risk participation agreements.
At June 30, 2023, Valley had
two
“steepener” swaps, each with a current notional amount of $
10.4
million where the receive rate on the swap mirrors the pay rate on the brokered deposits and the rates paid on these types of hybrid instruments are based on a formula derived from the spread between the long and short ends of the constant maturity swap (CMS) rate curve. Although these types of instruments do not meet the hedge accounting requirements, the change in fair value of both the bifurcated derivative and the stand alone swap tend to move in
41
opposite directions with changes in the three-month LIBOR rate (modified to the three-month Term SOFR rate effective July 1, 2023) and, therefore, provide an effective economic hedge.
Valley regularly enters into mortgage banking derivatives which are non-designated hedges. These derivatives include interest rate lock commitments provided to customers to fund certain residential mortgage loans to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of such loans. Valley enters into forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans when interest rate lock commitments are entered into in order to economically hedge the effect of future changes in interest rate on Valley's commitments to fund the loans as well as on its portfolio of mortgage loans held for sale.
Valley enters into foreign currency forward and option contracts, primarily to accommodate our customers, that are not designated as hedging instruments. Upon the origination of a certain foreign currency denominated transactions (including foreign currency holdings and non-U.S. dollar denominated loans) with a client, we enter into a respective hedging contract with a third party financial institution to mitigate the economic impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation.

During the second quarter 2023, certain cash flow hedges and other non-designated derivative hedging instruments previously cleared through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and London Clearing House were no longer subject to the variation margin netting under the single-unit of account
.
At December 31, 2022, fair value of these non-designated derivative instruments were reported net of variation margin as settlements using a single-unit of account.

Collateral Requirements and Credit Risk Related Contingent Features
. By using derivatives, Valley is exposed to credit risk if counterparties to the derivative contracts do not perform as expected. Management attempts to minimize counterparty credit risk through credit approvals, limits, monitoring procedures and obtaining collateral where appropriate. Credit risk exposure associated with derivative contracts is managed at Valley in conjunction with Valley’s consolidated counterparty risk management process. Valley’s counterparties and the risk limits monitored by management are periodically reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors.
Valley has agreements with its derivative counterparties providing that if Valley defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then Valley could also be declared in default on its derivative counterparty agreements. Additionally, Valley has an agreement with several of its derivative counterparties that contains provisions that require Valley’s debt to maintain an investment grade credit rating from each of the major credit rating agencies from which it receives a credit rating. If Valley’s credit rating is reduced below investment grade, or such rating is withdrawn or suspended, then the counterparties could terminate the derivative positions and Valley would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. As of June 30, 2023, Valley was in compliance with all of the provisions of its derivative counterparty agreements. The aggregate fair value of all derivative financial instruments with credit risk-related contingent features in a net liability position at June 30, 2023 was not material. Valley has derivative counterparty agreements that require minimum collateral posting thresholds for certain counterparties.
Note 14.
Balance Sheet Offsetting
Certain financial instruments, including certain over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives (mostly interest rate swaps) and repurchase agreements (accounted for as secured long-term borrowings), may be eligible for offset in the consolidated statements of financial condition and/or subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. OTC derivatives include interest rate swaps executed and settled bilaterally with counterparties without the use of an organized exchange or central clearing house (presented in the table below). The credit risk associated with bilateral OTC derivatives is managed through obtaining collateral and enforceable master netting agreements.
Valley is party to master netting arrangements with its financial institution counterparties; however, Valley does not offset assets and liabilities under these arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes. The master netting arrangements provide for a single net settlement of all swap agreements, as well as collateral, in the event of default on, or termination of, any one contract. Collateral, usually in the form of cash or marketable investment securities, is posted by the counterparty with net liability positions in accordance with contract thresholds. Master repurchase agreements which include “right of set-off” provisions generally have a legally enforceable right to offset recognized amounts. In such cases, the collateral would be used to settle the fair value of the swap or repurchase agreement should Valley be in default. The total amount of collateral held or pledged cannot exceed the net derivative fair values with the counterparty.

Tax Credit Investments
Valley’s tax credit investments are primarily related to investments promoting qualified affordable housing projects, and other investments related to community development and renewable energy sources. Some of these tax-advantaged investments support Valley’s regulatory compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act. Valley’s investments in these entities generate a return primarily through the realization of federal income tax credits, and other tax benefits, such as tax deductions from operating losses of the investments, over specified time periods. These tax credits and deductions are recognized as a reduction of income tax expense.
Valley’s tax credit investments are carried in other assets on the consolidated statements of financial condition. Valley’s unfunded capital and other commitments related to the tax credit investments are carried in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. Valley recognizes amortization of tax credit investments, including impairment losses, within non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income using the equity method of accounting. After initial measurement, the carrying amounts of tax credit investments with non-readily determinable fair values are increased to reflect Valley's share of income of the investee and are reduced to reflect its share of losses of the investee, dividends received and impairments, if applicable.
The following table presents the balances of Valley’s affordable housing tax credit investments, other tax credit investments, and related unfunded commitments at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Operating Segments
Valley manages its business operations under reportable segments consisting of Consumer Banking, Commercial Banking and Treasury and Corporate Other. Each operating segment is reviewed routinely for its asset growth, contribution to income before income taxes and return on average interest earning assets and impairment (if events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to realize the carrying amount). Valley regularly assesses its strategic plans, operations and reporting structures to identify its reportable segments and no changes to the reportable segments were determined necessary d
uring the first half of 2023.
Consumer Banking is mainly comprised of residential mortgages and automobile loans, and to a lesser extent, secured personal lines of credit, home equity loans and other consumer loans. The duration of the residential mortgage loan portfolio is subject to movements in the market level of interest rates and forecasted prepayment speeds. The average weighted life of the automobile loans within the portfolio is relatively unaffected by movements in the market level of interest rates. However, the average life may be impacted by new loans as a result of the availability of credit within the automobile marketplace and consumer demand for purchasing new or used automobiles. Consumer Banking also includes the Wealth Management and Insurance Services Division, comprised of trust, asset management, brokerage, insurance and tax credit advisory services.
Commercial Banking is comprised of floating rate and adjustable rate commercial and industrial loans and construction loans, as well as fixed rate owner occupied and commercial real estate loans. Due to the portfolio’s interest rate characteristics, Commercial Banking is Valley’s operating segment that is most sensitive to movements in market interest rates.
Treasury and Corporate Other largely consists of the Treasury managed held to maturity debt securities and available for sale debt securities portfolios mainly utilized in the liquidity management needs of our lending segments and income and expense items resulting from support functions not directly attributable to a specific segment. Interest income is generated through investments in various types of securities (mainly comprised of fixed rate securities) and interest-bearing deposits with other banks (primarily the Federal Reserve Bank of New York). Expenses related to the branch network, all other components of retail banking, along with the back office departments of the Bank are allocated from Treasury and Corporate Other to the Consumer and Commercial Banking segments. Interest expense and internal transfer expense (for general corporate expenses) are allocated to each operating segment utilizing a transfer pricing methodology, which involves the allocation of operating and
46
funding costs based on each segment's respective mix of average interest earning assets and or liabilities outstanding for the period.
The accounting for each segment includes internal accounting policies designed to measure consistent and reasonable financial reporting and may result in income and expense measurements that differ from amounts under U.S. GAAP. The financial reporting for each segment contains allocations and reporting in line with Valley’s operations, which may not necessarily be comparable to any other financial institution. Furthermore, changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and procedures may result in changes in reported segment financial data.
The following tables represent the financial data for Valley’s operating segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following MD&A should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this report. The words "Valley," the "Company," "we," "our" and "us" refer to Valley National Bancorp and its subsidiaries, unless we indicate otherwise. Additionally, Valley’s principal subsidiary, Valley National Bank, is commonly referred to as the “Bank” in this MD&A.
The MD&A contains supplemental financial information, described in the sections that follow, which has been determined by methods other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) that management uses in its analysis of our performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance, our business and performance trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of others in the financial services industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for or superior to financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may also be calculated differently from similar measures disclosed by other companies.

•
a prolonged downturn in the economy, mainly in New Jersey, New York, Florida, Alabama, California, and Illinois, as well as an unexpected decline in commercial real estate values within our market areas; and
•
unexpected significant declines in the loan portfolio due to the lack of economic expansion, increased competition, large prepayments, changes in regulatory lending guidance or other factors.

We undertake no duty to update any forward-looking statement to conform the statement to actual results or changes in our expectations. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Valley’s accounting policies are fundamental to understanding management’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management has made estimates, judgments and assumptions in accordance with these policies that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. At June 30, 2023, we identified our policies on the allowance for credit losses, goodwill and other intangible assets, and income taxes to be critical accounting policies because management has to make subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because it is likely that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. Management has reviewed the application of these policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of Valley’s Board of Directors. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described in detail in Part II, Item 7 in Valley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and there have been no material changes in such policies and estimates since the date of such report.
New Authoritative Accounting Guidance
See Note 5
to the consolidated financial statements for a description of new authoritative accounting guidance, including the respective dates of adoption and effects on results of operations and financial condition.

Executive Summary
Company Overview.
A
t June 30, 2023, Valley had consolidated total assets of approximately $61.7 billion, total net loans of $49.4 billion, total deposits of $49.6 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $6.6 billion. Valley operates many convenient branch office locations and commercial banking offices in northern and central New Jersey, the New York City Boroughs of Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, Long Island, Westchester County, New York, Florida, California, Alabama and Illinois. Of our current 230 branch network, 56 percent, 18 percent, and 18 percent of the branches are in New Jersey, New York and Florida, respectively, with the remaining 8 percent of the branches in Alabama, California, and Illinois combined. We have grown significantly both in asset size and locations over the past several years both through organic efforts and bank acquisitions, including our acquisition of Bank Leumi USA on April 1, 2022.
Industry Developments.
The combination of rapidly rising interest rates, increased competition and economic uncertainty continues to weigh on the banking industry in the wake of the recent bank failures. We have consistently operated the Bank with a focus on diversification to maintain stability through various economic cycles. During the second quarter 2023, we continued to position our balance sheet to mitigate potential risks from the market uncertainty affecting the banking industry in general and Valley, its clients and communities in particular.
•
Total assets decreased to
$61.7 billion at June 30, 2023, a decrease of 4.1 percent from March 31, 2023. Liquidity remained strong with total liquid assets of approximate
ly
$13.1 billion
at June 30, 2023, representing
6.0 percent
of interest earning assets.
We continue to maintain significant access to readily available, diverse funding sources to fulfill both short-term and long-term funding needs. See "Bank Liquidity" section for additional information.
•
Total deposits increased $2.0 billion to $49.6 billion at June 30, 2023 as compared to $47.6 billion at March 31, 2023 largely due to higher CD balances. See the "Deposits and Other Borrowings" section for more details.
•
Capital remained strong with ratios of both Valley and the Bank exceeding all capital adequacy requirements at June 30, 2023. Total shareholders' equity increased $63.6 million to $6.6 billion at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023. See the "Capital Adequacy" section for additional details.
•
Total loans increased $1.2 billion, or 10.0 percent on an annualized basis to $49.9 billion at June 30, 2023 from March 31, 2023 mainly due to continued organic loan growth in commercial loan categories and relatively low levels of prepayment activity during the second quarter 2023. See "Loan Portfolio" section for more information.
•
Asset quality continued to reflect our disciplined underwriting and lending practices during the second quarter
2023. Non-performing assets (NPAs) as a percentage of total loans and NPAs totaled 0.51 percent and 0.50 percent at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. See the "Non-Performing Assets" section for additional information.
•
Total investment securities were $5.1 billion, or 8.2 percent of total assets, at June 30, 2023 and remained relatively unchanged as compared to March 31, 2023. See the "Investment Securities Portfolio" section for more details.
Quarterly Results.
Net income for the second quarter 2023 was $139.1 million, or $0.27 per diluted common share as compared to $96.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted common share, for the second quarter 2022. The $42.6 million increase in quarterly net income as compared to the same quarter one year ago was mainly due to the following changes:
•
a $37.9 million decrease in our provision for credit losses mainly due to a provision related to non-PCD loans and unfunded credit commitments acquired from Bank Leumi USA in the second quarter 2022;
51
•
a $1.6 million increase in net interest income mainly due to increased yields on both new loan originations and adjustable-rate loans and higher average loan balances, largely offset by the increased cost of deposits;
•
a $1.5 million increase in non-interest income primarily due to an increase in capital markets fees and
wealth
management and trust fees, partially offset by lower n
et gains on sales of loans
; and
•
a $16.8 million decrease
in non-interest expense was due, in part, to a $40.2 million decrease in merger expenses, partially offset by a $11.2 million restructuring charge and various other increases;
These items were partially offset by:
•
a $15.2 million increase in income tax expense mostly due to higher pre-tax income in the
second quarter 2023
.
See the "Net Interest Income", "Non-Interest Income", "Non-Interest Expense" and "Income Taxes" sections below for more details on the impact of the items above on our second quarter 2023 results.
U.S. Economic Conditions.
During t
he second quarter 2023, real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate
of 2.4 percent as compared to an increase of 2.0 percent during the first quarter 2023. The 2.4 percent increase in real GDP reflected robust consumer spending, private inventory investment, nonresidential fixed
investment, and government spending, as well as improved supply chain. Inflation moderately cooled, but remained well above the Federal Reserve’s target of 2 percent in the second quarter 2023.
During the first quarter 2023, the Federal Reserve raised the target range for the federal funds rate by an additional 25 basis points in May 2023 and paused rate increases in June to observe the full impact of its changes over the past year. In July 2023, the Federal Reserve raised the target again by another 25 basis points to a range of 5.25 to 5.5 percent.
The 10-year U.S. Treasury note yield ended the second quarter 2023 at 3.81 percent, or 33 basis points higher as compared to the first quarter 2023, and the 2-year U.S. Treasury note yield ended the second quarter 2023 at 4.87 percent, or 81 basis points higher as compared to the first quarter 2023.
For all U.S. commercial banks, commercial and industrial loans decreased approximately by 1.3 percent at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023, while consumer loans increased by 1.3 percent. Alternatively, demand for commercial real estate loans remained flat compared to the prior quarter. Overall the commercial real estate market was constricted by the financial environment this quarter as rising interest rates eroded investment profitability. Despite higher mortgage rates, demand for residential real estate remained steady, although sales were constrained by low inventories.
While many economic measures continue to defy recessionary concerns, further increases in market interest rates, the inverted yield curve, high inflation, and the potential for additional fallout from the recent banking crisis, including bank regulatory actions, among other factors, have added a higher level of uncertainty to the future path of the U.S. economy and created a challenging banking environment. Should economic conditions deteriorate, causing business activity, spending and investment to decline, it may adversely impact our financial results, as highlighted in this MD&A.
Deposits and Other Borrowings
Overall, average deposits increased by
$311.6 million
to $47.5 billion for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the first quarter 2023
mostly due to higher time deposits driven by successful retail CD generation and increased utilization of fully insured indirect customer (i.e., brokered) deposits, partially offset by a decrease in average non-interest bearing deposits. The decline in non-interest bearing deposits was largely due to a moderate shift in customer balances to our interest bearing deposit products in a rising interest rate environment and outflows due to attractive investment alternatives to deposits in the marketplace.
Average non-interest-bearing deposits; savings,

NOW and money market deposits; and time deposits represented approximately 27 percent, 47 percent and 26 percent of total deposits as of June 30, 2023, respectively.
Actual ending balances for deposits increased $2.0 billion to approximately $49.6 billion at June 30, 2023 from March 31, 2023 mainly due to a $3.8 billion increase in time deposits, partially offset by decreases in non-interest bearing deposits, and savings, NOW and money market deposits totaling $1.1 billion and $626.1 million, respectively. The increase in time deposits from March 31, 2023 was partially driven by higher fully-insured indirect customer CD balances at June 30, 2023. Total fully-insured indirect customer deposits, consisting of both brokered time deposit and money market accounts, increased $3.2 billion to $10.3 billion at June 30, 2023 from March 31, 2023. Non-interest bearing deposits; savings, NOW and money market deposits; and time deposits represented approximately 25 percent, 45 percent and 30 percent of total deposits as of June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to 29 percent, 48 percent and 23 percent of total deposits as of March 31, 2023, respectively.

Total estimated uninsured deposits, excluding collateralized government deposits and intercompany deposits (i.e., deposits eliminated in consolidation), totaled approximately $12.1 billion, or 24 percent of total deposits, at June 30, 2023 as compared to $14.9 billion, or 31 percent of total deposits, at March 31, 2023.
While our diversified commercial and consumer deposit base has remained relatively stable during the early stages of
the third quarter 2023, deposit gathering initiatives could remain challenging due to market competition, attractive investment alternatives, such as U.S. Treasury securities, and other factors. As a result, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to maintain deposit levels at or near those reported at June 30, 2023.

Average short-term borrowings increased $1.1 billion during the second quarter 2023 as compared to the first quarter 2023 mostly due to the higher utilization of FHLB advances in March 2023 to increase our excess liquidity
53
position. Average long-term borrowings (including junior subordinated debentures issued to capital trusts
which are presented separately on the consolidated statements of financial condition) increased $652.9 million as compared to the first
quarter 2023 mainly due to
the
new FHLB advances issued in March 2023 and the second quarter 2023.
Actual ending balances for short-term borrowings decreased $5.3 billion to $1.1 billion at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023 mainly due to maturities and repayment of FHLB advances. In March 2023, we increased our short-term borrowings to bolster our liquidity position out of an abundance of caution in the wake of the two bank failures and subsequently managed these balances to a lower level during the second quarter 2023, partially through the greater use of time deposits. We continue to closely monitor changes in the current banking environment and have substantial access to additional liquidity. Actual ending balances for long-term borrowings totaled $2.4 billion at June 30, 2023 and remained relatively unchanged as compared to March 31, 2023. See the "Bank Liquidity" section for more details on our available funding sources.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The table below presents selected performance indicators, their comparative non-GAAP measures and the (non-GAAP) efficiency ratio for the periods indicated. Valley believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to both management and investors in understanding its underlying operational performance, business, and performance trends, and may facilitate comparisons of current and prior performance with the performance of others in the financial services industry. Management utilizes these measures for internal planning, forecasting and analysis purposes. Management believes that Valley’s presentation and discussion of this supplemental information, together with the accompanying reconciliations to the GAAP financial measures, also allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for or superior to financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may also be calculated differently from similar measures disclosed by other companies.

In addition to the items used to calculate net income, as adjusted, in the table above, our net income is, from time to time, impacted by fluctuations in the level of net gains on sales of loans, wealth management fees, and swap fees recognized from commercial loan customer transactions reported in capital markets fees. These amounts can vary widely from period to period due to, among other factors, the amount of residential mortgage loans originated for sale, loan portfolio sales, brokerage fees, and commercial loan customer demand for certain products. See the “Non-Interest Income” section below for more details.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis totaling $421.3 million for the second quarter 2023 decreased $16.2 million as compared to the first quarter 2023 and increased $1.7 million as compared to the second quarter 2022. The decrease as compared to the first quarter 2023 was mainly due to a $3.3 billion increase in average interest bearing liabilities and higher interest rates on most interest bearing deposit products and short-term borrowings, partially offset by higher loan yields. As a result, interest expense increased $83.5 million to $367.7 million for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the first quarter 2023. Interest income on a tax equivalent basis increased $67.3 million to $789.0 million in the second quarter 2023 as compared to the first quarter 2023. The increase was mostly due to higher yields on both new originations and adjustable rate loans in our portfolio and a $1.6 billion increase in average loan balances driven by organic new loan volumes and a continuation of slower loan prepayments.
Average interest earning assets increased $8.5 billion to $57.4 billion for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022 mainly due to a $6.9 billion increase in average loan balances and $1.4 billion increase in average interest bearing cash balances largely due to higher excess cash held overnight as part of our prudent liquidity management navigating the fallout from the recent bank failures. Compared to the first quarter 2023,
57
average interest earning assets increased by $2.0 billion during the second quarter 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.6 billion increase in average loan balances mainly due to organic commercial loan growth and a $351.6 million increase in average interest bearing cash as compared to the prior linked quarter.
Average interest bearing liabilities increased $11.2 billion to $40.9 billion for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022 mainly due to increases of $8.1 billion and $2.3 billion in average time deposits and short-term borrowings, respectively. The increases in average time deposits and short-term borrowings were largely due to the enhanced liquidity management efforts during the first half of 2023, including increased usage of fully FDIC-insured indirect customer CD and successful retail CD initiatives. As compared to the first quarter 2023, average interest bearing liabilities increased by $3.3 billion in the second quarter 2023 largely due to a $2.5 billion increase in average time deposits mainly driven by increased usage of fully FDIC-insured indirect customer CD and successful retail CD initiatives, as well as an increase in short-term borrowings, as part of our funding and liquidity sources. See additional information under "Deposits and Other Borrowings" in the Executive Summary section above.
Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis of 2.94 percent for the second quarter 2023 decreased by 22 basis points and 49 basis points from 3.16 percent and 3.43 percent for the first quarter 2023 and the second quarter 2022, respecti
vely. The decrease as compared to the first quarter 2023 was largely driven by higher interest rates on interest bearing deposits and short-term borrowings, partially offset by a 29 basis point increase in the yield on average interest earning assets.
The yield on average loans increased by 30 basis points to 5.78 percent for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the first quarter 2023 largely due to higher interest rates on new originations and adjustable rate loans. The yields on average taxable and non-taxable investments also increased 13 basis points and 16 basis points, respectively, from the first quarter 2023 mostly due to investment maturities and prepayments redeployed into new higher yielding securities during the first half of 2023. Our cost of total average deposits increased to 2.45 percent for the second quarter 2023 from 1.96 percent and 0.19 percent for the first quarter 2023 and the second quarter 2022, respectively. The overall cost of average interest bearing liabilities also increased 57 basis points to 3.59 percent for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the first quarter 2023 primarily driven by the rising market interest rates on deposits during the first half of 2023.
Based upon our current estimates at June 30, 2023
,
we anticipate net interest income growth in the low single digits (i.e., less than 10
percent) for the full year of 2023
, revised down fro
m 16 to 18 percent previously estimated in the M
D&A of Valley's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. While we are seeing initial signs of stabilization in net interest income and margin as compared to the declines in both experienced in the first quarter 2023, we cannot provide any assurances with respect to the future trajectory of market interest rates or that our net interest margin or income will remain at the levels reported for the
second quarter 2023.

Wealth management and trust fees income increased $1.6 million and $6.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022. The increase as compared to the second quarter 2022 was mainly driven by higher revenues generated by our advisory firm, Dudley Ventures, LLC, specializing in the investment and management of tax credit investments. The increase for the
six months ended
June 30, 2023 was largely related to higher brokerage fees related to our broker dealer subsidiary, Valley Financial Management, Inc., acquired on April 1, 2022 from Bank Leumi USA. Brokerage fees totaled $9.7 million and $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Capital markets income increased $2.3 million and decreased $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022 mainly due to changes in volume of interest rate swap transactions executed for commercial loan customers.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $4.7 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2023
compared to the same period in
2022 largely due to the additional deposit accounts acquired from Bank Leumi USA on April 1, 2022.
Net gains on sales of loans decreased $2.4 million and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022 mostly due to lower loan sale volumes as we continued to retain a higher percentage of new loan volumes during the first half of 2023. During the
six months ended
June 30, 2023, we sold $71.8 million of residential mortgage loans as compared to $326.2 million for same period in 2022.
Other non-interest income increased $6.9 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2023
as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was mostly due to incremental increases in several operating non-interest income categories caused by the acquisition of Bank Leumi USA and organic growth of our business operations over the last 12 months.

Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense decreased $16.8 million and increased $58.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022.

Salary and employee benefits expense decreased $5.2 million and increased $32.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022. As compared to second quarter 2022, the decline was largely due to decreases in cash incentive compensation expense and Bank Leumi USA merger related costs (which totaled $28.0 million in the second quarter 2022), partially offset by higher salary expense and a restructuring charge of $11.2 million, consisting of severance expense related to recent workforce reductions. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by higher headcount from the Bank Leumi USA acquisition and organic growth in our operations, the aforementioned restructuring charge, and inflationary pressures on our overall labor costs. These increases were partially offset by lower cash incentive compensation expense and merger related costs. The merger related costs totaled $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to $28.0 million for the same period in 2022.
Net occupancy expense increased $3.5 million and $4.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022 mainly driven by increased lease expense.
Technology, furniture and equipment expense decreased $17.4 million and $6.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022. The second quarter 2023 decrease was largely due to Bank Leumi USA merger related expenses (largely consisting of technology related costs) totaling $15.3 million for the second quarter 2022. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was mainly due to decline in merger related expense, partially offset by higher depreciation expense as compared to the same period in 2022.
FDIC insurance assessment expense increased $5.1 million and $10.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 2022 mainly due to growth in our balance sheet, as well as a two basis point increase in the initial base rate effective for 2023.
Amortization of other intangible assets increased $4.5 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2023
as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly due to higher amortization expense of core deposits and other intangible assets resulting from Bank Leumi USA acquisition. See Note

to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Professional and legal fees decreased $9.0 million and $6.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022, largely due to declines in merger related expense, partially offset by higher technology transformation consulting and managed services. Within the category, merger
63
related expenses (related to the Bank Leumi USA acquisition) totaled $11.4 million and $12.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Other non-interest expense increased $6.0 million and $17.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022 primarily due to general increases in several categories caused by our acquired and organic growth in operations, higher charitable contributions, and increased charges related to collateral liabilities in connection with derivative transactions.
We continuously monitor and closely manage our non-interest expense in an effort to optimize our operating efficiency.
To offset the current headwinds impacting our net interest income and margin, we began the implementation of a new cost saving initiative in late June 2023. The identified cost savings are expected to primarily come from workforce reductions, more efficient third-party consulting and service usage, and specific technology cost reductions. As noted above, we incurred
$11.2 million of severance expense
associated with these efforts during the second quarter 2023. Overall, the new initiative is expected to generate more than $40 million of annual pre-tax cost savings and be realized over the next 12 months.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense totaled $51.8 million for the second quarter 2023 as compared to $57.2 million and $36.6 million for the first quarter 2023 and second quarter 2022, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 27.1 percent, 28.1 percent and 27.5 percent for the second quarter 2023, first quarter 2023 and second quarter 2022, respectively. The decline in the effective tax rate in the second quarter 2023
was primarily due to the release of a state valuation allowance related to New Jersey net operating loss carryforwards.
U.S. GAAP requires that any change in judgment or change in measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period be recognized as a discrete event in the quarter in which it occurs, rather than being recognized as a change in effective tax rate for the current year. Our adherence to these tax guidelines may result in volatile effective income tax rates in future quarterly and annual periods. Factors that could impact management’s judgment include changes in income, tax laws and regulations and tax planning strategies.
Operating Segments
Valley manages its business operations under reportable segments consisting of Consumer Banking, Commercial Banking and Treasury and Corporate Other. Each operating segment is reviewed routinely for its asset growth, contribution to income before income taxes and return on average interest earning assets and impairment (if events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to realize the carrying amount). Valley regularly assesses its strategic plans, operations and reporting structures to identify its reportable segments and no changes to the reportable segments were determined necessary during the first half of 2023.
The accounting for each segment includes internal accounting policies designed to measure consistent and reasonable financial reporting and may result in income and expense measurements that differ from amounts under U.S. GAAP. The financial reporting for each segment contains allocations and reporting in line with Valley’s operations, which may not necessarily be comparable to those of any other financial institution. Furthermore, changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and procedures may result in changes in reported segment financial data.

Consumer Banking
Consumer Banking represented 18.0 percent of our loan portfolio at June 30, 2023, and was mainly comprised of residential mortgage loans and automobile loans, and to a lesser extent, home equity loans, secured personal lines of credit and other consumer loans (including credit card loans). The duration of the residential mortgage loan portfolio (which represented 11.1 percent of our loan portfolio at June 30, 2023) is subject to movements in the market level of interest rates and forecasted prepayment speeds. The weighted average life of the automobile loans (which represented 3.3 percent of total loans at June 30, 2023) is relatively unaffected by movements in the market level of interest rates. However, the average life may be impacted by new loans as a result of the availability of credit within the automobile marketplace and consumer demand for purchasing new or used automobiles. Consumer Banking also includes the Wealth Management and Insurance Services Division, comprised of trust, asset management, brokerage, insurance and tax credit advisory services.
Average interest earning assets within Consumer Banking
increased
$937.2 million to $8.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022
. The increase was largely due to new residential mortgage loan volumes originated for investment rather than sale over the last 12-month period, and, to a lesser extent, growth in home equity and secured personal lines of credit.
Income before income taxes for Consumer Banking decreased $1.5 million to $12.2 million for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022 mainly driven by lower net interest income and, to a lesser extent, an increase in non-interest expense. Net interest income decreased $23.0 million in the second quarter 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022 due to additional interest expense generated from higher average deposit and other borrowing balances, as well as an increase in the cost of such interest bearing liabilities
. The negative impact of these items was partially offset by an increase in non-interest income and lower internal transfer expense. Non-interest income increased
$8.4 million mainly due to increases in wealth management and trust fees, capital markets and service charges on deposit accounts, partially offset by lower gains on sales of loans.
Internal transfer expense decreased $15.6 million
for the second quarter 2023 as
compared to the second quarter 2022 due to the lower allocation of non-interest expense over the same period. The provision for loan losses decreased $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023
due to a decrease in non-economic qualitative factors as compared to one year ago. See further details in the “Allowance for Credit Losses” section of this MD&A.
65
Net interest margin on the Consumer Banking portfolio decreased 134 basis points to 1.60 percent for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022 mainly due to a 224 basis point increase in the costs associated with our funding sou
rces, partially offset by
a 90 basis point increase in the yield on average loans
. The increase in our funding costs was mainly driven by higher interest rates on most of our interest bearing commercial and retail deposit products, increased utilization of fully FDIC-insured indirect customer deposits and higher cost of other borrowings held during the
second quarter 2023
. The 90 basis point increase in loan yield was largely due to higher yielding new loan volumes and adjustable rate loans in our portfolio. See the "Executive Summary" and the "Net Interest Income" sections above for more details on our net interest margin and funding sources.
The return on average interest earning assets before income taxes for the consumer banking segment was 0.55 percent for the second quarter 2023 compared to 0.69 percent for the second quarter 2022.
Commercial Banking
Commercial Banking is comprised of floating rate and adjustable rate commercial and industrial loans and construction loans, as well as fixed rate owner occupied and commercial real estate loans. Due to the portfolio’s interest rate characteristics, Commercial Banking is Valley’s business segment that is most sensitive to movements in market interest rates. Commercial and industrial loans totaled approximately $9.3 billion and represented 18.6 percent of the total loan portfolio at June 30, 2023. Commercial real estate loans and construction loans totaled $31.6 billion and represented 63.4 percent of the total loan portfolio at June 30, 2023.
Average interest earning assets in Commercial Banking increased $6.0 billion to $40.6 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022 primarily due to strong organic loan growth concentrated in the commercial real estate loan portfolio.
Income before income taxes for Commercial Banking increased $120.5 million to $247.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022 mainly due to an increase in net interest income and decreases in the provision for credit losses and internal transfer expense, partially offset by higher non-interest expense.
Net
interest income for this segment increased $41.0 million to $373.7 million for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to higher average commercial loan balances and higher interest rates on new and adjustable loans. Internal transfer expense decreased $55.0 million to $102.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022.
The provision for credit losses decreased $35.5 million to $2.8 million as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly due to elevated provision for credit losses for the
second quarter 2022
related to non-PCD loans and unfunded credit commitments acquired from Bank Leumi USA. See details in the "Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans" section of this MD&A. Non-interest expense increased $10.9 million to $35.4 million for
three months ended June 30, 2023
as compared to the second quarter 2022.
The net interest margin for this segment decreased 16 basis poin
ts to 3.69 percent for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022 due to a 224 basis point increase in the cost of our funding sources, partially offset by a 208 basis point increase in the yield on average loans.
The return on average interest earning assets before income taxes for the commercial banking segment was 2.44 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 1.47 percent for the same period in 2022.
Treasury and Corporate Other
Treasury and Corporate Other largely consists of the Treasury managed held to maturity and available for sale debt securities portfolios mainly utilized in the liquidity management needs of our lending segments and income and expense items resulting from support functions not directly attributable to a specific segment. Interest income is generated through investments in various types of securities (mainly comprised of fixed rate securities) and interest-bearing deposits with other banks (primarily the Federal Reserve Bank of New York). Expenses related to the branch network, all other components of retail banking, along with the back office departments of the Bank are allocated from Treasury and Corporate Other to the Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking segments. Interest
66
expense and internal transfer expense (for general corporate expenses) are allocated to each business segment utilizing a transfer pricing methodology, which involves the allocation of operating and funding costs based on each segment's respective mix of average interest earning assets and/or liabilities outstanding for the period. Other items disclosed in this segment include net gains and losses on available for sale and held to maturity securities transactions, interest expense related to subordinated notes, amortization of tax credit investments, as well as other non-core items, including merger expenses.
Average interest earning assets within Treasury and Corporate Other increased $1.5 billion to $7.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023 mainly due to a $1.4 billion increase in average overnight interest bearing deposits with banks as compared to the same period in 2022. Our average overnight cash levels increased in the second quarter
2023 as a cautionary liquidity manageme
nt measure resulting from the bank failures in March and April 2023.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, loss before income taxes in this segment totaled $68.8 million compared to $7.7 million for the same period in 2022. The $61.1 million increase in the pre-tax loss during the second quarter 2023 period was mainly due to lower internal transfer income and net interest income, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest expense. The internal transfer income decreased $70.6 million to $124.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period a year ago due to the lower allocation of non-interest expense over the same period. Non-interest expense decreased $32.1 million to $224.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly attributable to merger expenses incurred during the second quarter 2022 resulting from the Bank Leumi USA acquisition. See further details in the "Non-Interest Income" and "Non-Interest Expense" sections of this MD&A.
The net interest margin for this segment decreased 93 basis points to 1.19 percent for the second quarter 2023 as compared to the second quarter 2022 due to a 224 basis point increase in cost of our funding sources, partially offset by a 131 basis point increase in the yield on average investments. The increase in the yield on average investments as compared to the same period a year ago was largely driven by new higher yielding investments and a reduction in premium amortization expense mostly caused by slower principal repayments in the rising interest rate environment.

Consumer Banking
Consumer Banking's average interest earning assets increased $988.1 million to $8.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was largely due to new residential mortgage loan volumes originated for investment rather than sale over the last 12-month period, as well as growth in home equity loans and secured personal lines of credit.
Income before income taxes generated by Consumer Banking decreased $23.4 million to $13.2 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly driven by lower net interest income, and, to a lesser extent, increases in non-interest expense and the provision for loan losses. Net interest income decreased $37.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly due to additional interest expense generated from higher average deposit balances, as well as an increase in interest rate
s on such balances.
The provision for loan losses increased $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023
due to additional reserves related to residential loan growth, and changes in the economic forecast component within our CECL model as compared to one year ago. See further details in the “Allowance for Credit Losses” section of this MD&A. The negative impact of these items was partially offset by an
$8.9 million increase in non-interest income coupled with a $13.4 million decrease in the internal transfer expense f
or the
six months ended June 30, 2023
as
compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in non-interest income was mainly driven by increases in wealth management and trust fees and service charges on deposit accounts.
Net interest margin on the Consumer Banking portfolio decreased 116 basis points to
1.76 percent
for the
six months ended June 30, 2023
as compared to the same period one year ago mainly due to a 202 basis point increase in the costs associated with our funding sources, partially offset by an 86 basis point increase in the yield on average loans. The 86 basis point increase in loan yield was largely due to higher yielding new loan volumes and adjustable rate loans in our portfolio. See the "Executive Summary" and the "Net Interest Income" sections above for more details on our net interest margin and funding sources.
The return on average interest earning assets before income taxes for the consumer banking segment was 0.30 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 0.93 percent
as compared to the same period one year ago
.
Commercial Banking
Average interest earning assets in Commercial Banking increased $9.1 billion to $39.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. This increase was
primarily due to strong organic loan growth, especially in the commercial real estate portfolio over the 12-month period ended June 30, 2023, as well as loans acquired from Bank Leumi USA on April 1, 2022.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, income before income taxes for Commercial Banking increased $207.2 million to $471.1 million as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly due to an increase in net interest income and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by higher non-interest expense. Net interest income increased $172.6 million to $751.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to higher average commercial loan balances and higher interest rates on new and adjustable loans.
T
he provision for credit losses decreased $34.1 million to $5.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to $39.9 million for the same period in 2022
mainly due to a provision for non-PCD loans and unfunded credit commitments acquired from Bank Leumi in the second quarter 2022. See details in the "Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans" section of this MD&A. Non-interest expense increased $21.6 million to
$71.1 million
for the
six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly due to acquired and organic growth in our commercial operations
.
See further details in the "Non-Interest Income" and "Non-Interest Expense" sections of this MD&A.
The net interest margin for this segment increased 1 basis point to 3.78 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 due to a 203 basis point increase in yield on average loans, partially offset by a 202 basis point increase in the cost of our funding sources.
68
The return on average interest earning assets before income taxes for the commercial banking segment was 2.37 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 1.72 percent for the same period in 2022.
Treasury and Corporate Other
Treasury and Corporate Other's average interest earning assets increased $1.7 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 mainly due to investment securities acquired from Bank Leumi USA, as well as other select new investment securities purchases over the last 12-month period
.
Average interest bearing deposits with banks increased $47.5 million as compared to the same period in 2022 due to additional cash held as a cautionary liquidity management measur
e starting in March 2023 and through most of the second quarter 2023.
The loss before income taxes for this segment totaled $89.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to $11.5 million for the same period in 2022. The $78.3 million increase in pre-tax loss was mainly due to an increase in non-interest expense and decreases in both net interest income and internal transfer income, partially offset by higher non-interest income. Non-interest expense increased $30.4 million to $442.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 largely due to expenses related to our expanded banking operations and organic business growth including higher salary and employee benefits expense, technology, furniture and equipment and professional and legal fees. Internal transfer income decreased $36.7 million to $286.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 due to the higher allocation of non-interest expense over the same period. Non-interest income increased $8.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 mostly due to incremental increases in several operating non-interest income categories caused by acquired and organic growth of our business operations over the last 12-month period. See further details in the "Non-Interest Income" and "Non-Interest Expense" sections of this MD&A.
Provision for credit losses increased $4.4 million mainly due to a corporate bond issued by Signature Bank within our AFS debt securities portfolio that was fully charged-off during the first quarter 2023.
Treasury and Corporate Other's net interest margin decreased 46 basis points to 1.35 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 due to a 202 basis point increase in cost of our funding sources, partially offset by a 156 basis point increase in the yield on average investments. The increased yield on average investments as compared to the same period in 2022 was largely driven by new higher yielding investments and a reduction in premium amortization expense mostly caused by slower principal repayments in the rising interest rate environment.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
Interest Rate Risk
Our success is largely dependent upon our ability to manage interest rate risk. Interest rate risk can be defined as the exposure of our interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities to the movement in interest rates. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee is responsible for managing such risks and establishing policies that monitor and coordinate our sources and uses of funds. Asset/Liability management is a continuous process due to the constant change in interest rate risk factors. In assessing the appropriate interest rate risk levels for us, management weighs the potential benefit of each risk management activity within the desired parameters of liquidity, capital levels and management’s tolerance for exposure to income fluctuations. Many of the actions undertaken by management utilize fair value analysis and attempt to achieve consistent accounting and economic benefits for financial assets and their related funding sources. We have predominantly focused on managing our interest rate risk by attempting to match the inherent risk and cash flows of financial assets and liabilities. Specifically, management employs multiple risk management activities such as optimizing the level of new residential mortgage originations retained in our mortgage portfolio through increasing or decreasing loan sales in the secondary market, product pricing levels, the desired maturity levels for new originations, the composition levels of both our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, as well as several other risk management activities.
69
We use a simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to movements in interest rates. The simulation model projects net interest income based on various interest rate scenarios over a 12-month and 24-month period. The model is based on the actual maturity and re-pricing characteristics of rate sensitive assets and liabilities. The model incorporates certain assumptions which management believes to be reasonable regarding the impact of changing interest rates and the prepayment assumptions of certain assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2023. The model assumes immediate changes in interest rates without any proactive change in the composition or size of the balance sheet, or other future actions that management might undertake to mitigate this risk. In the model, the forecasted shape of the yield curve remains static as of June 30, 2023. The impact of interest rate derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, is also included in the model.
Our simulation model is based on market interest rates and prepayment speeds prevalent in the market as of June 30, 2023. Although the size of Valley’s balance sheet is forecasted to remain static as of June 30, 2023 in our model, the composition is adjusted to reflect new interest earning assets and funding originations coupled with rate spreads utilizing our actual originations during the second quarter 2023. The model also utilizes an immediate parallel shift in market interest rates at June 30, 2023.
The assumptions used in the net interest income simulation are inherently uncertain. Actual results may differ significantly from those presented in the table below due to the frequency and timing of changes in interest rates and changes in spreads between maturity and re-pricing categories. Overall, our net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and cash flows from our loan and investment portfolios. We actively manage these cash flows in conjunction with our liability mix, duration and interest rates to optimize the net interest income, while structuring the balance sheet in response to actual or potential changes in interest rates. Additionally, our net interest income is impacted by the level of competition within our marketplace. Competition can negatively impact the level of interest rates attainable on loans and increase the cost of deposits, which may result in downward pressure on our net interest margin in future periods. Other factors, including, but not limited to, the slope of the yield curve and projected cash flows will impact our net interest income results and may increase or decrease the level of asset sensitivity of our balance sheet.
Convexity is a measure of how the duration of a financial instrument changes as market interest rates change. Potential movements in the convexity of bonds held in our investment portfolio, as well as the duration of the loan portfolio may have a positive or negative impact on our net interest income in varying interest rate environments. As a result, the increase or decrease in forecasted net interest income may not have a linear relationship to the results reflected in the table below. Management cannot provide any assurance about the actual effect of changes in interest rates on our net interest income.
The following table reflects management’s expectations of the change in our net interest income over the next 12- month period considering the aforementioned assumptions. While an instantaneous and severe shift in interest rates was used in this simulation model, we believe that any actual shift in interest rates would likely be more gradual and would therefore have a more modest impact than shown in the table below.

As noted in the table above, a 100 basis point immediate increase in interest rates combined with a static balance sheet where the size, mix, and proportions of assets and liabilities remain unchanged is projected to increase net
70
interest income over the next 12-month period by 3.99 percent. Management believes the interest rate sensitivity of our balance sheet remains within an acceptable tolerance range at June 30, 2023. However, the level of net interest income sensitivity may increase or decrease in the future as a result of several factors, including potential changes in our balance sheet strategies, the slope of the yield curve and projected cash flows.
Liquidity and Cash Requirements
Bank Liquidity
Liquidity measures Valley's ability to satisfy its current and future cash flow needs. Our objective is to have liquidity available to fulfill loan demands, repay deposits and other liabilities, and execute balance sheet strategies in all market conditions while adhering to internal controls and income targets. Valley's liquidity program is managed by the Treasury Department and routinely monitored by the Asset and Liability Management Committee and two board committees. Among other actions, Treasury actively monitors Valley's current liquidity profile, sources and stability of funding, availability of assets for pledging or sale, opportunities to gather additional funds, and anticipated future funding needs, including the level of unfunded commitments.
The Bank adheres to certain
internal liquidity measures including ratios of loans to deposits below 110 percent and wholesale funding to total funding below 25 percent, as summarized in the table below. Management maintains flexibility to temporarily exceed these thresholds in certain operating environments.
The following table presents Valley's loan to deposits and wholesale funding to total funding ratios at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Valley's short and long-term cash requirements include contractual obligations under borrowings, deposits, payments related to leases, capital expenditures and other purchase commitments. In the ordinary course of operations, the Bank also enters into various financial obligations, including contractual obligations that may require future cash payments. Management believes the Bank has the ability to generate and obtain adequate amounts of cash to meet its short-term and long-term obligations as they come due by utilizing various cash resources described below.
On the asset side of the balance sheet, the Bank has numerous sources of liquid funds in the form of cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with banks (including the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) and other sources.

(2) Includes a
pproximately $847 million and $333 million of various investment securities that were pledged to counterparties to support our earning asset funding strategies at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Total liquid assets represented 6.0 percent and 4.6 percent of earning assets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Other sources of funds on the asset side are derived from scheduled loan payments of principal and interest, as well as prepayments received. At June 30, 2023, estimated cash inflows from total loans are projected to be approximately
$14.7 billion
over the next 12-month period. As a contingency plan for any liquidity constraints, liquidity could also be derived from the sale of conforming residential mortgages from our loan portfolio or alleviated from the temporary curtail
ment of lending activities. We anticipate the receipt of approx
imately
$386.2 million
in principal payments from securities in the total investment portfolio at June 30, 2023 over the next 12-month period due to normally scheduled principal repayments and expected prepayments of certain securities, primarily residential mortgage-backed securities.
On the liability side of the balance sheet, we utilize multiple sources of funds to meet liquidity needs, including retail and commercial deposits, fully FDIC-insured indirect customer deposits, collateralized municipal deposits, and short-term and long-term borrowings. Our core deposit base, which generally excludes all fully insured indirect customer deposits, as well as retail certificates of deposit over $250 thousand, represents the largest of these source
s. Average core deposits totaled approximately
$42.0 billion
and $38.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2022, respectively, representing 74.6 percent and 79.2 percent of average interest earning assets for the respective periods. The level of interest bearing deposits is affected by interest rates offered, which is often influenced by our need for funds, rates prevailing in the capital markets, competition, and the need to manage interest rate risk sensitivity.
In addition to customer deposits, the Bank has ample access to readily available borrowing sources available
to supplement its
current and projected funding needs.

FHLB and FRB borrowings are collateralized by certain pledged securities, including but not limited to U.S. government and agency mortgage-backed securities and blanket qualifying first lien on certain real estate and residential mortgage secured loans.
Additionally, the Federal Reserve established the Bank Term Funding Program on March 12, 2023 as a funding source for eligible depository institutions. The Program can provide short-term liquidity (up to one year) against the par value of certain high-quality collateral, such as U.S. Treasury securities, and eliminate the potential need for an
72
institution to sell those securities in times of stress. Advances under the Program can be requested until March 11, 2024. This Program is currently another short-term liquidity source for Valley. Valley had no outstanding borrowings under the Program at June 30, 2023.
Corporation Liquidity
Valley’s recurring cash requirements primarily consist of dividends to preferred and common shareholders and interest expense on subordinated notes and junior subordinated debentures issued to capital trusts. As part of our ongoing asset/liability management strategies, Valley could also use cash to repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock under its share repurchase program or redeem its callable junior subordinated debentures and subordinated notes (including $125 million of 5.125 percent subordinated notes which are maturing on September 27, 2023). Valley's cash needs are routinely satisfied by dividends collected from the Bank. Projected cash flows from the Bank are expected to be adequate to pay preferred and common dividends, if declared, and interest expense payable to subordinated note holders and capital trusts, given the current capital levels and current profitable operations of the Bank. In addition to dividends received from the Bank, Valley can satisfy its cash requirements by utilizing its own cash and potential new funds borrowed from outside sources or capital issuances. Valley also has the right to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debentures, and therefore distributions on its trust preferred securities for consecutive quarterly periods of up to five years, but not beyond the stated maturity dates, and subject to other conditions.
Investment Securities Portfolio
As of June 30, 2023, we had $61.0 million, $1.2 billion, and $3.8 billion in equity, available for sale debt securities and held to maturity debt securities, respectively. The available for sale and held to maturity debt securities portfolios, which comprise the majority of the securities we own, include: U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, tax-exempt and taxable issuances of states and political subdivisions, residential mortgage-backed securities, single-issuer trust preferred securities principally issued by bank holding companies and high quality corporate bonds. Among other securities, our available for sale debt securities include securities such as bank issued and other corporate bonds, as well as municipal special revenue bonds, which may pose a higher risk of future impairment charges to us as a result of the uncertain economic environment and its potential negative effect on the future performance of the security issuers. The equity securities consisted
of two
publicly traded mutual funds, CRA investments and several other equity investments we have made in companies that develop new financial technologies and in partnerships that invest in such companies. Our CRA and other equity investments are a mix of both publicly traded entities and privately held entities. We also had $3.4 million of trading debt securities at June 30, 2023 consisting of U.S. Treasury securities.
We continually evaluate our investment securities portfolio in response to established asset/liability management objectives, changing market conditions that could affect profitability, and the level of interest rate risk to which we are exposed to. These evaluations may cause us to change the level of funds we deploy into investment securities, change the composition of our investment securities portfolio, and change the proportion of investments primarily made into the available for sale and held to maturity debt securities portfolios.
Allowance for Credit Losses and Impairment Analysis
Available for sale debt securities.
Available for sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions are evaluated for impairment related to credit losses at least quarterly. In assessing whether a credit loss exists, we compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Declines in fair value that have not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses,
73
such as declines due to changes in market interest rates, are recorded through other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes.
We have evaluated all available for sale debt securities that are in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and determined that the declines in fair value were mainly attributable to changes in market v
olatility, due to factors such as interest rates and spread factors, but not attributable to credit quality or other factors. Based on a comparison of the present value of expected cash flows to the amortized cost, Valley recognized a credit related impairment of one corporate bond
issued by Signature Bank
resulting in both a provision for credit losses and full charge-off of the security totaling $5.0 million during the
six months ended
June 30, 2023. There was no other impairment recognized within the available for sale debt securities portfolio during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
Valley does not intend to sell any of its
available for sale debt securities
in an unrealized loss position prior to
recovery of our amortized cost basis, and it is more likely than not that Valley will not be required to sell any of its securities prior to recovery of our amortized cost basis. None of the
available for sale debt securities
were past due as of June 30, 2023 and t
here was no allowance for credit losses for available for sale debt securities at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Held to maturity debt securities.
Valley estimates the expected credit losses on held to maturity debt securities that have loss expectations using a discounted cash flow model developed by a third party. Valley has a zero-loss expectation for certain securities within the held to maturity portfolio, including U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. agency securities, residential mortgage-backed securities issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and collateralized municipal bonds.
To measure the expected credit losses on held to maturity debt securities that have loss expectations, Valley estimates the expected credit losses using a discounted cash flow model developed by a third party
. Assumptions used in the model for pools of securities with common risk characteristics include the historical lifetime probability of default and severity of loss in the event of default, with the model incorporating several economic cycles of loss history data to calculate expected credit losses given default at the individual security level. Held to maturity debt securities were carried net of an allowance for credit losses totaling approximately $1.4 million and $1.6 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Investment grades.
The investment grades in the table below reflect the most current independent analysis performed by third parties of each security as of the date presented and not necessarily the investment grades at the date of our purchase of the securities. For many securities, the rating agencies may not have performed an independent analysis of the tranches owned by us, but rather an analysis of the entire investment pool. For this and other reasons, we believe the assigned investment grades may not accurately reflect the actual credit quality of each security and should not be viewed in isolation as a measure of the quality of our investment portfolio.

Rated using external rating agencies. Ratings categories include the entire range. For example, “A rated” includes A+, A, and A-. Split rated securities with two ratings are categorized at the higher of the rating levels.
The unrealized losses in the AAA and AA rated categories of both the available for sale and held to maturity debt securities portfolios (in the above table) were largely related to residential mortgage-backed securities issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and continued to be driven by the rising interest rate environment during the last 12 months. The investment securities available for sale and held to maturity portfolio included $120.6 million and $178.8 million, respectively, of investments not rated by the rating agencies with aggregate unrealized losses of $13.8 million and $16.0 million, respectively, at June 30, 2023. The unrealized losses within non-rated available for sale debt securities mostly related to several large corporate bonds negatively impacted by rising interest rates, and not changes in underlying credit. The unrealized losses within non-rated held to maturity debt
securities mostly related to four single-issuer bank trust preferred issuances with a combined amortized cost of $36.1 million and several corporate and other debt securities.

Includes net unearned discount and deferred loan fees of $119.1 million, $125.4 million and $120.5 million at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Total loans increased $1.2 billion, or 10.0 percent on an annualized basis
to $49.9 billion at June 30, 2023 from March 31, 2023
mainly due to continued organic loan growth in commercial loan categories and relatively low levels of loan prepayment activity during the
second quarter 2023
. Residential mortgage loans held for sale at fair value totaled $23.0 million and $17.2 million at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. At June 30, 2023, loans held for sale also included one non-performing construction loan totaling $10.0 million, net of charge-offs, transferred from the loan portfolio during the second quarter 2023.
Commercial and industrial loans increased
$243.4 million
to $9.3 billion at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023. The organic and diverse growth was mainly a result of new loan volumes from our pre-existing long-term customer base.
Commercial real estate loans (excluding construction loans) increased
$742.0 million
to $27.8 billion at June 30, 2023 from March 31, 2023
reflecting solid organic growth mainly within non-owner occupied and multi-family loans across our geographic market areas. At
June 30, 2023
, commercial real estate loans collateralized by office buildings were approximately
$3.2 billion
of the
$27.8 billion
portfolio. These loans are geographically disbursed largely across Florida, Alabama, New Jersey, New York, and Manhattan with a combined weighted average loan to value ratio of 52 percent and debt service coverage ratio of 1.78.
Construction loans increased only
$89.8 million
to $3.8 billion at June 30, 2023 from March 31, 2023 and was largely due to advances on pre-existing construction loan projects in New Jersey, New York and Florida.
Residential mortgage loans increased $74.1 million, or 5.4 percent on an annualized basis, during the second quarter 2023 as we largely originated new loans for the held for investment portfolio rather than for sale.
New and refinanced residential mortgage loan originations totaled $188.0 million
for the second quarter 2023 as compared to
76
$194.4 million
and
$540.7 million
for the first quarter 2023 and second quarter 2022, respectively. Florida originations totaled $63.2 million and represented 33.61 percent of total residential mortgage loan originations in the quarter. During the second quarter 2023, we retained approximately 73.2 percent of the total residential mortgage originations in our held for investment loan portfolio. Of the total originations in the second quarter 2023, $50.4 million of residential mortgage loans were originated for sale rather than held for investment as compared to $61.9 million during the
second quarter 2022
. Additionally, the volume of both new and refinanced loan applicat
ions has remained relatively low in the early stages of the third quarter 2023 due
to the high level of mortgage interest rates and tight housing inventories and may challenge our ability to grow this loan category.
Home equity loans increased by $18.9 million to $535.5 million at June 30, 2023 compared to March 31, 2023 as a result of lower new originations and line utilization in an unfavorable high interest rate environment.
Automobile loans decreased by $84.3 million, or 19.6 percent on an annualized basis, to $1.6 billion at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023 largely due to continued low consumer demand for
new and used vehicle financing because of the higher interest rate environment. During the second quarter 2023, the interest rates on new car loans reached the highest level since 2008. We originated $16.2 million in auto loans through our Florida dealership network during the second quarter 2023 as compared to $31.5 million in the first quarter 2023. Of the total originations, our Florida dealership network represented approximately 20 percent of new loans, during the second quarter 2023. Despite adequate new automobile inventories available to consumers, we anticipate that the impact of inflation on average new vehicle prices coupled with rising interest rates could continue to have a negative impact on our ability to grow this loan category during the third quarter 2023.
Other consumer loans increased $133.5 million to $1.3 billion at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023
mainly due to moderate growth in our collateralized personal lines of credit portfolio.
A significant part of our lendin
g is in northern and central New Jersey, New York City, Long Island and Florida. To mitigate our geographic risks, we make efforts to maintain a diversified portfolio as to type of borrower and loan to guard against a potential downward turn in any one economic sector.
Annualized loan growth slowed to 10 percent during the second quarter 2023 from 16 percent in the first quarter 2023 as we worked through the majority of the strong loan pipeline that was present at the beginning of 2023. We will continue to be selective on the lending side and generally supportive of compelling projects led by our high quality and tenured customer base. Moving forward, we anticipate moderate levels of overall loan growth in the mid to high single digits on an annualized basis for the remainder of 2023.
Non-performing Assets
Non-performing assets (NPA) include non-accrual loans, other real estate owned (OREO), and other repossessed assets (which primarily consist of automobiles and taxi medallions) at June 30, 2023. Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when they become past due in excess of 90 days as to payment of principal or interest. Exceptions to the non-accrual policy may be permitted if the loan is sufficiently collateralized and in the process of collection. OREO is acquired through foreclosure on loans secured by land or real estate. OREO and other repossessed assets are reported at lower of cost or fair value, less estimated cost to sell.
Our NPAs increased $11.2 million to $256.1 million at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023
mostly due to increases in both non-accrual commercial real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by decreases in construction loans and residential mortgage loans.
NPAs as a percentage of total loans and NPAs totaled 0.51 percent and 0.50 percent at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively (as shown in the table below). Our total NPAs has remained relatively low as a percentage of the total loan portfolio and the level of NPAs, which is reflective of our consistent approach to the loan underwriting criteria for both Valley originated loans and loans purchased from third parties. For additional details, see the "Credit quality indicators" section in Note
8
to the consolidated financial statements.

Our lending strategy is based on underwriting standards designed to maintain high credit quality and we remain optimistic regarding the overall future performance of our loan portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our overall credit trends have remained stable, and our business and borrowers continued to demonstrate resilience and growth despite the recent challenges across the banking system, slower economic growth, elevated inflation and the overall uncertain economy
.
However, management cannot provide assurance that the non-performing assets will not materially increase from the levels reported at June 30, 2023 due to the aforementioned or other factors potentially impacting our lending customers.

Loans past due 30 to 59 days decreased $20.9 million to $33.8 million at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023
due, in part, to the commercial real estate loans totaling $10.2 million included in this delinquency category at March 31, 2023 that reclassified to non-accrual loans at June 30, 2023. Commercial and industrial loans 30 to 59 days past due decreased $14.5 million mainly due to improved performance during the second quarter 2023.
Loans past due 60 to 89 days decreased $14.8 million to $12.9 million at June 30, 2023
as compared to March 31, 2023 largely due to a commercial and industrial loan relationship totaling $21.2 million included in this delinquency category at March 31, 2023 that became current to all its contractual payments at June 30, 2023.
Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest decreased $2.8 million to $15.0 million at June 30, 2023 as compared to March 31, 2023 mainly due to decreases in the commercial and industrial and construction loan categories, partially offset by one new matured commercial real estate loan of $2.2 million expected to be paid off in the near term. All loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest are well-secured and in the process of collection.
Non-accrual loans increased
$12.1 million to $254.1 million at June 30, 2023 as compared to $242.0 million at March 31, 2023 mostly driven by an increase in the commercial real estate loan category.
Non-accrual commercial real estate loans increased $14.8 million to $82.7 million at June 30, 2023 due, in part, to the aforementioned migration of two loans totaling $10.2 million from the 30 to 59 days past due delinquency category at March 31, 2023 and one new $4.5 million non-performing loan at June 30, 2023. Non-accrual construction loans decreased $5.6 million to $63.0 million at June 30, 2023 from March 31, 2023 primarily due to the $4.2 million partial charge-off of one loan, which was transferred to loans held for sale at June 30, 2023.
Although the timing of collection is uncertain, management believes that the majority of the non-accrual loans at June 30, 2023, are well secured and largely collectible based in part, on our quarterly review of collateral dependent loans and the valuation of the underlying collateral, if applicable. Any estimated shortfall in each collateral valuation results in an allocation of specific reserves within our allowance for credit losses for loans.
Non-performing taxi medallion
loans totaled $65.8 million of the $84.4 million non-accrual commercial and industrial loans at June 30, 2023. At June 30, 2023, all taxi medallion loans in the loan portfolio were on non-accrual status and had related reserves of $41.7 million, or 63.4 percent of such loans, within the allowance for loan losses. Potential further declines in the market valuation of taxi medallions and the c
urrent operating environment mainly within New York City may negatively impact the performance of this portfolio.
OREO properties totaled $824 thousand at June 30, 2023 and decreased $365 thousand as compared to March 31, 2023. Th
e sales of OREO p
roperties and net gains on sales of OREO during t
he three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
were not material. The residential mortgage and consumer loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process totale
d
$454 thousand
and
$2.6 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans
The allowance for credit losses (ACL) for loans includes the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments. Under CECL, our methodology to establish the allowance for loan losses has two basic components: (i) a collective reserve component for estimated expected credit losses for pools of loans that share common risk characteristics and (ii) an individual reserve component for loans that do not share risk characteristics, consisting of collateral dependent loans. Valley also maintains a separate allowance for unfunded credit commitments mainly consisting of undisbursed non-cancellable lines of credit, new loan commitments and commercial standby letters of credit.
Valley
estimated the collective ACL using a current expected credit losses methodology which is based on relevant information about historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the loan balances. In estimating the component of the allowance on a collective basis, we use a transition matrix model which calculates an expected life of loan loss percentage for each loan pool by generating
79
probability of default and loss given default metrics. The metrics are based on the migration of loans within the commercial and industrial loan categories from performing to loss by credit quality rating or delinquency categories using historical life-of-loan analysis periods for each loan portfolio pool and the severity of loss based on the aggregate net lifetime losses. The model's expected losses based on loss history are adjusted for qualitative factors. Among other things, these adjustments include and account for differences in: (i) the impact of the reasonable and supportable economic forecast, relative probability weightings and reversion period, (ii) other asset specific risks to the extent that they do not exist in the historical loss information, and (iii) net expected recoveries of charged-off loan balances. These adjustments are based on qualitative factors not reflected in the quantitative model but are likely to impact the measurement of estimated credit losses. The expected lifetime loss rate is the life of loan loss percentage from the transition matrix model plus the impact of the adjustments for qualitative factors. The expected credit losses are the product of multiplying the model’s expected lifetime loss rate by the exposure at default at period end on an undiscounted basis.
Valley utilizes a two-year reasonable and supportable forecast period followed by a one-year period over which estimated losses revert to historical loss experience for the remaining life of the loan on a straight-line basis. The forecasts consist of a multi-scenario economic forecast model to estimate future credit losses and is governed by a cross-functional committee. The committee meets each quarter to determine which economic scenarios developed by Moody's will be incorporated into the model, as well as the relative probability weightings of the selected scenarios, based upon all readily available information. The model projects economic variables under each scenario based on detailed statistical analyses. We have identified and selected key variables that most closely correlated to our historical credit performance, which include: GDP, unemployment and the Case-Shiller Home Price Index.
At June 30, 2023, Valley continued to maintain the majority of its probability weighting used in the economic forecast to the Moody’s Baseline scenario with less emphasis on the S-3 downside and S-4 adverse scenarios. However, the standalone Moody's Baseline scenario reflected a more pessimistic outlook as compared to March 31, 2023 in terms of GDP growth, unemployment levels and potential near term negative economic impacts given the present uncertain economic conditions.
At June 30, 2023, the Moody's Baseline forecast included the following specific assumptions:
•
GDP expansion of approximately 0.6 percent in the third quarter 2023;
•
Unemployment of 3.6 percent in the third quarter 2023 and 3.8 to 4.3 percent over the remainder of the forecast period ending in the second quarter 2025;
•
Continued concerns about increased debt burden pushed by rising interest rates, high inflation, and elevated house prices;
•
Consumer spending remained a source of growth and its contribution grew to the largest in nearly two years, as the cost-of-living adjusted boosted after-tax income adding another 2.5 percent to growth;
•
The Federal Reserve opted to pause its rate hikes in June 2023,
keeping the federal funds rate at 5 - 5.25 percent
with possible additional reductions in 2023; and
•
Inflation remains elevated but continues to trend downward, while reporting at approximately 4 percent in May 2023.

Net loan charge-offs totaled $8.6 million for the second quarter 2023 as compared to $30.4 million and $2.3 million for
the first quarter 2023 and the second quarter 2022, respectively.
The decrease from
the first quarter 2023 was mainly due to the elevated net loan charges-offs during the
first quarter 2023 largely related to one commercial and industrial loan participation charged-off.
Gross charge-offs totaled $11.3 million for the second quarter 2023 and included the $4.2 million partial charge-off related to the valuation of a non-performing construction loan transferred
from the held for investment loan portfolio to loans held for sale at
June 30, 2023. This construction loan had specific reserves of $5.2 million within the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2023 and, as a result, the partial charge-off was fully reserved for prior to the second quarter 2023.
The amount of net loan charge-offs (as presented in the above table) and the low level of individual loan charge-offs for the second quarter 2023 continued to trend within management's expectations for the credit quality of the loan portfolio at June 30, 2023.

The allowance for credit losses for loans, comprised of our allowance for loan losses and unfunded credit commitments, as a percentage of total loans was 0.92 percent at June 30, 2023 as compared to 0.95 percent and 1.13 percent at March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. During the second quarter 2023, the provision for credit losses for loans tota
led $6.3 million as
compared to $9.5 million and $43.7 million for the first quarter 2023 and second quarter 2022, respectively.
At June 30, 2023,
our allowance for credit losses for loans as a percentage of total loans decreased as compared to March 31, 2023 as higher economic forecast reserves driven by a more pessimistic Moody's Baseline outlook was more than offset by lower non-economic qualitative reserves for commercial loans
. The net impact of other changes in quantitative reserves for each loan category was not significant to the total allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2023
.
Capital Adequacy
A significant measure of the strength of a financial institution is its shareholders’ equity. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, shareholders’ equity totaled approximately $6.6 billion and $6.4 billion, which represented 10.7 percent and 11.1 percent of total assets, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, total shareholders’ equity increased by approximately
$174.4 million
primarily due to the following:
•
net income of $285.6 million,
•
a
$7.7 million in
crease attributable to the effect of our stock incentive plan,
•
additional capital issued totaling
$3.8 million,
•
a $990 thousand net cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for the adoption of ASU 2022-02, partially offset by
•
cash dividends declared on common and preferred stock totaling a combined
$120.9 million,
83
•
repurchases of
$2.1 million
of our common stock with these shares held in treasury stock and
•
other comprehensive loss of
$745 thousand.
Valley and Valley National Bank are subject to the regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Bank and the OCC. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Valley and Valley National Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of common equity Tier 1 capital, total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and Tier 1 capital to average assets, as defined in the regulations.
We are required to maintain common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 4.5 percent, Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 6.0 percent, ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0 percent, and a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0 percent, plus a 2.5 percent capital conservation buffer added to the minimum requirements for capital adequacy purposes. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Valley and Valley National Bank exceeded all capital adequacy requirements (see table below).
For regulatory capital purposes, in accordance with the Federal Reserve Board’s final interim rule as of April 3, 2020, we deferred 100 percent of the CECL Day 1 impact to shareholders' equity plus 25 percent of the reserve build (i.e., provision for credit losses less net charge-offs) for a two-year period ending January 1, 2022. On January 1, 2022, the deferral amount totaling $47.3 million after-tax started to be phased-in by 25 percent and will increase 25 percent per year until fully phased-in on January 1, 2025. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $23.6 million of the $47.3 million deferral amount was recognized as a reduction to regulatory capital and, as a result, decreased our risk-based capital ratios by approximately 6 basis points.

Typically, our primary source of capital growth is through retention of earnings. Our rate of earnings retention is derived by dividing undistributed earnings per common share by earnings (or net income available to common shareholders) per common share. Our retention ratio was approximately 60.0 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to 61.4 percent for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Cash dividends declared amounted to $0.22 per common share for each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Board is committed to examining and weighing relevant facts and considerations, including its commitment to shareholder value, each time it makes a cash dividend decision.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations and Other Matters
For a discussion of Valley’s off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations see information included in Valley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 in the MD&A section - “Liquidity and Cash Requirements” and Notes

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk refers to potential losses arising from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, and commodity prices. Valley’s market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk. See pa
ge

for
a discussion of interest rate risk.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
(a) Disclosure control and procedures.
Valley maintains disclosure controls and procedures which, consistent with Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), are defined to mean controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that Valley files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to Valley’s management, including Valley’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Valley’s CEO and CFO, with the assistance of other members of Valley’s management, have evaluated the effectiveness of Valley’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, Valley’s CEO and CFO have concluded that Valley’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
Valley’s CEO and CFO have also concluded that there have not been any changes in Valley’s internal control over financial reporting in the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Valley’s internal control over financial reporting.
Valley’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A system of internal control, no matter how well conceived and operated, provides reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system of internal control are met. The design of a system of internal control reflects resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because there are inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Valley have been or will be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns occur because of a simple error or mistake. Controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of internal control is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, we are a party to various outstanding legal proceedings and claims. There have been no material changes in the legal proceedings, if any, previously disclosed under Part I, Item 3 of Valley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Item 1A.
Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in the section titled "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of Valley’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as described below, and previously disclosed in Valley’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023:
Our financial results and condition may be adversely impacted by recent events in the banking industry or any future similar events.
Recent events impacting the banking industry, including the bank failures in March and April 2023, have resulted in significant disruption and volatility in the capital markets, reduced current valuations of bank securities, and decreased confidence in banks among depositors and other counterparties as well as investors. These events occurred in the context of rapidly rising interest rates which, among other things, have resulted in unrealized losses in longer duration debt securities and loans held by banks, increased competition for deposits and potentially increased the risk of recession. These events have had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock.
While the Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC took steps to ensure that depositors of recently failed banks would have access to their insured and uninsured deposits, and to facilitate sales of certain failed banks, there is no assurance that these or similar actions will restore customer confidence in the banking system, and we may be further impacted by concerns regarding the soundness of other financial institutions, or other future bank failures or disruptions. Any loss of client deposits or changes in our credit ratings could increase the cost of funding, limit access to capital markets or negatively impact our overall liquidity or capitalization. The cost of resolving the recent bank failures may also prompt the FDIC to increase its premiums above current levels or to issue additional special assessments.
These recent events and any future similar events may also result in changes to laws or regulations governing bank holding companies and banks, including higher capital requirements, or the imposition of restrictions through supervisory or enforcement activities, which could materially impact our business.
