FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and exhibits thereto, contains estimates, predictions, opinions, projections and other “forward-looking statements” as that phrase is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, without limitation, references to the Company’s predictions or expectations of future business or financial performance as well as its goals and objectives for future operations, financial and business trends, business prospects and management’s outlook or expectations for earnings, revenues, expenses, capital levels, liquidity levels, asset quality or other future financial or business performance, strategies or expectations. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “project” and similar expressions, among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on various assumptions (some of which may be beyond the Company’s control) and are subject to risks and uncertainties (which change over time) and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently anticipated. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:


•	those related to difficult market conditions and unfavorable economic trends in the United States generally, and particularly in the markets in which the Company operates and in which its loans are concentrated, including the effects of declines in housing markets, an increase in unemployment levels and slowdowns in economic growth;


•	the Company’s level of nonperforming assets and the costs associated with resolving problem loans including litigation and other costs;


•	possible additional loan losses and impairment in the collectability of loans;


•	changes in market interest rates, which may increase funding costs and reduce earning asset yields and thus reduce margin;


•	the impact of changes in interest rates and the credit quality and strength of underlying collateral and the effect of such changes on the market value of the Company’s investment securities portfolio;


•	the credit risk associated with the substantial amount of commercial real estate, construction and land development and commercial and industrial loans in our loan portfolio;


•	the extensive federal and state regulation, supervision and examination governing almost every aspect of the Company’s operations including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations issued in accordance with this statute and potential expenses associated with complying with such regulations;


•	the Company’s ability to comply with applicable capital and liquidity requirements (including the finalized Basel III capital standards), including our ability to generate liquidity internally or raise capital on favorable terms;


•	possible changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies, laws and regulations and other activities of governments, agencies, and similar organizations;


•	conditions in the financial markets that may limit the Company’s access to additional funding to meet its liquidity needs;


•	any impairment of the Company’s goodwill or other intangible assets;


•	failure of the financial and operational controls of the Company’s Cash Connect^® division;


•	the success of the Company’s growth plans, including the successful integration of past and future acquisitions;


•	the Company’s ability to fully realize the cost savings and other benefits of its acquisitions, and to manage risks related to, business disruption following those acquisitions, and post-acquisition customer acceptance of the Company’s products and services and related customer disintermediation;


•	negative perceptions or publicity with respect to the Company’s trust and wealth management business;


•	system failure or cybersecurity breaches of the Company’s network;


•	the Company’s ability to recruit and retain key employees;


•	the effects of problems encountered by other financial institutions that adversely affect the Company or the banking industry generally;


•	the effects of weather and natural disasters such as floods, droughts, wind, tornadoes and hurricanes as well as effects from geopolitical instability and man-made disasters including terrorist attacks;


•	possible changes in the speed of loan prepayments by the Company’s customers and loan origination or sales volumes;


•	possible changes in the speed of prepayments of mortgage-backed securities due to changes in the interest rate environment, and the related acceleration of premium amortization on prepayments in the event that prepayments accelerate;


•	regulatory limits on the Company’s ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries and pay dividends to its stockholders;

Table of Contents


•	the effects of any reputational, credit, interest rate, market, operational, legal, liquidity, regulatory and compliance risk resulting from developments related to any of the risks discussed above; and


•	the effects of other risks and uncertainties, discussed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.

We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. The Company disclaims any duty to revise or update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Company for any reason, except as specifically required by law.

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms "WSFS", "the Company", "registrant", "we", "us", and "our" mean WSFS Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, unless the context indicates otherwise.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2018

(UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

General

Our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of WSFS Financial Corporation (the Company or WSFS), Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (WSFS Bank or the Bank), WSFS Wealth Management, LLC (Powdermill), WSFS Capital Management, LLC (West Capital), Cypress Capital Management, LLC (Cypress) and Christiana Trust Company of Delaware (Christiana Trust DE). We also have one unconsolidated subsidiary, WSFS Capital Trust III. WSFS Bank has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: WSFS Wealth Investments, 1832 Holdings, Inc. and Monarch Entity Services LLC.

Overview

Founded in 1832, the Bank is one of the ten oldest bank and trust companies continuously operating under the same name in the United States (U.S.). We provide residential and commercial real estate, commercial and consumer lending services, as well as retail deposit and cash management services. Lending activities are funded primarily with customer deposits and borrowings. In addition, we offer a variety of wealth management and trust services to personal and corporate customers. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insures our customers’ deposits to their legal maximums. We serve our customers primarily from our 77 offices located in Delaware (46), Pennsylvania (29), Virginia (1) and Nevada (1) and through our website at www.wsfsbank.com. Information on our website is not incorporated by reference into this quarterly report.

In preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Amounts subject to significant estimates include the allowance for loan losses and reserves for lending related commitments, goodwill, intangible assets, post-retirement benefit obligations, the fair value of financial instruments, and other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI). Among other effects, changes to these estimates could result in future impairments of investment securities, goodwill and intangible assets and establishment of the allowance and lending related commitments as well as increased post-retirement benefits expense.

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the U.S., prevailing practices within the banking industry for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X (Rule 10-01). Rule 10-01 does not require us to include all information and notes that would be required in audited financial statements. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2018. These unaudited, interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K) that was filed with the SEC on March 1, 2018 and is available at www.sec.gov or on our website at http://investors.wsfsbank.com/financials.cfm. All significant intercompany transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

Significant Accounting Policies:

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements are disclosed in our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Those significant accounting policies are unchanged at March 31, 2018 except as described below:

Equity Securities

We account for our investments in equity securities in accordance with ASC 321-10 "Investments - Equity Securities." Our equity securities are classified into two categories and accounted for as follows:


•	Equity securities with a readily determinable fair value are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Any dividends received are recorded in interest income.


•	Equity securities without a readily determinable fair value are reported at their cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Any dividends received are recorded in interest income.

Table of Contents

Equity investments include our investment in Visa Class B shares and certain other equity investments. The fair value of equity investments with readily determinable fair values is primarily obtained from third-party pricing services. For equity investments without readily determinable fair values, when an orderly transaction for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer is identified, we use the valuation techniques permitted under ASC 820 Fair Value to evaluate the observed transaction(s) and adjust the fair value of the equity investment.

ASC 321-10 also provides guidance related to accounting for impairment of equity securities without readily determinable fair values. The qualitative assessment to determine whether impairment exists requires the use of our judgment in certain circumstances. If, after completing the qualitative assessment we conclude an equity investment without a readily determinable fair value is impaired, a loss for the difference between the equity investment’s carrying value and its fair value may be recognized as a reduction to noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Senior Debt

On September 1, 2017, we redeemed $55.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.25% senior notes due 2019 which were issued in 2012 (the 2012 senior notes). The 2012 senior notes were repaid using a portion of the proceeds from our 2016 issuance of senior unsecured fixed-to-floating rate notes (the 2016 senior notes). We recorded noninterest expense of $0.7 million due to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs in connection with this redemption.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Guidance Adopted in 2018

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. ASU No. 2014-09 will require an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers using a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of the contracts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. This amendment defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Gross versus Net), which amends the principal versus agent guidance and clarifies that the analysis must focus on whether the entity has control of the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer. In addition, the FASB issued ASU Nos. 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and 2016-12, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, both of which provide additional clarification of certain provisions in Topic 606. These ASC updates were effective for public business entities annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or retrospectively with the cumulative effect transition method. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2018. Consistent with the transition guidance in ASC 606, results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented in accordance with ASC 606, while prior period amounts are reported in accordance with ASC 605. For revenue streams determined to be within the scope of the new standard, we concluded that the adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements at the time of adoption. See Note 2 for additional disclosures resulting from our adoption of this standard.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This amendment requires that equity investments be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. When fair value is not readily determinable an entity may elect to measure the equity investment at cost, minus impairment, plus or minus any change in the investment’s observable price. For financial liabilities that are measured at fair value, the amendment requires an entity to present separately, in other comprehensive income, any change in fair value resulting from a change in instrument specific credit risk. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The standard requires retrospective application for equity investments with readily determinable fair values and prospective application for equity investments without readily determinable fair values. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis for its equity investments without readily determinable fair values, and the adoption of the standard did not have an effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements at the time of adoption. Subsequent to the filing of our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we identified observable transactions related to an equity investment without a readily determinable fair value. These identified, observable transactions required the revaluation of this equity investment. The results of the revaluation was recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income. See Note 11 for further information.

Table of Contents

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 represents the Emerging Issues Task Force’s final consensus on eight issues related to the classification of cash payments and receipts in the statement of cash flows for a number of common transactions. The consensus also clarifies when identifiable cash flows should be separated versus classified based on their predominant source or use. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis and the adoption did not have an effect on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU 2017-01 provides a new, two-step framework for determining whether a transaction is accounted for as an acquisition (or disposal) of assets or a business. The first step is evaluating whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the transaction is not considered a business. Also, in order to be considered a business, the transaction would need to include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The guidance is effective for public entities in annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for transactions that have not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or been made available for issuance. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis with no impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements at the time of adoption.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. ASU 2017-05 provides clarification of the scope of ASC 610-20. Specifically, the new guidance clarifies that ASC 610-20 applies to nonfinancial assets which do not meet the definition of a business or not-for-profit activity. Further, the new guidance clarifies that a financial asset is within the scope of ASC 610-20 if it meets the definition of an in-substance nonfinancial asset which is defined as a financial asset promised to a counterparty in a contract where substantially all of the assets promised are nonfinancial. Finally, the new guidance clarifies that each distinct nonfinancial asset and in-substance nonfinancial asset should be derecognized when the counterparty obtains control of it. The guidance is effective in annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted for all entities, but not before annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis and the adoption did not have an effect on its Consolidated Financial Statements at the time of adoption.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The new guidance requires that the service cost component of net periodic pension cost be disclosed with other compensation costs in the income statement. For all other cost components, an entity must either separately disclose the other cost components in separate line item(s) outside a subtotal of income from operations in the income statement or disclose the line item(s) used to present the other cost components in the income statement. The guidance is effective in annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis with no impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements at the time of adoption.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Scope of Modification Accounting. The new guidance clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. If the award’s fair value, vesting conditions and classification remain the same immediately before and after the change, modification accounting is not applied. Additionally, the guidance does not require valuation before or after the change if the change does not affect any of the inputs to the model used to value the award. The guidance is effective in annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied on a prospective basis to awards modified on or after the adoption date. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis with no impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements at the time of adoption.

Accounting Guidance Pending Adoption at March 31, 2018

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU revises the accounting related to lessee accounting. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. The new lease guidance also simplifies the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Adoption using the modified retrospective transition approach is required for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company does not plan to early adopt this guidance. The Company is in the process of identifying our complete lease population as defined by this guidance and expects to complete this analysis in the second quarter. The Company continues to evaluate our internal systems, accounting policies, processes and related internal controls for potential impacts. To date, our preliminary review suggests that adoption will result in additional assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition which may require modification of the Company's internal systems, accounting policies, processes and related internal controls to allow for the calculation of the lease liability and right-of-use asset as required by this guidance. The Company will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with an expected credit loss methodology and requires consideration of a broader range of information to determine credit loss estimates. Financial assets measured at amortized cost will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by using an allowance for credit losses. Purchased credit impaired loans will receive an allowance account at the acquisition date that represents a component of the purchase price allocation. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses, with such allowance limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not plan to early adopt this guidance. The Company's cross-functional team from Finance, Credit and IT are leading the implementation efforts to evaluate the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements, internal systems, accounting policies, processes and related internal controls. To date, our preliminary review of this guidance suggests that adoption may materially increase the allowance for loan losses and decrease capital levels; however, the extent of these impacts will depend on the asset quality of the portfolio and significant estimates and judgments made by management at the time of adoption. The team is currently completing due diligence on acceptable methodologies under the guidance and potential software solutions which could support the methodologies. The Company will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2020.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing the hypothetical purchase price allocation. The new guidance requires an impairment of goodwill be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, up to the amount of goodwill recorded. The guidance is effective in annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests with measurement dates after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the application of this guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The new guidance requires the amortization period for certain non-contingent callable debt securities held at a premium to end at the earliest call date of the debt security. If the call option is not exercised at the earliest call date, the guidance requires the debt security's effective yield to be reset based on the contractual payment terms of the debt security. The guidance is effective in annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Use of the modified retrospective method, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, is required. In the period of adoption, a change in accounting principle disclosure is required. The Company does not expect the application of this guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The new guidance changes both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. Specifically, the guidance eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and also aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. Additionally, the new guidance provides entities the ability to apply hedge accounting to additional hedging strategies. The guidance is effective in annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the application of this guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. NONINTEREST INCOME

We adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 606. The standard applies to certain revenue streams included in noninterest income on our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income, discussed in more detail below. See Note 1 for further information about our adoption of ASU 2014-09, and Note 13 for further information about the disaggregation of noninterest income by segment.

Credit/debit card and ATM income

The following table presents the components of credit/debit card and ATM income:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018		2017
Bailment fees	$	6,093	$	4,703
Interchange fees	3,460		3,198
Other card and ATM fees	252		230
Total credit/debit card and ATM income	$	9,805	$	8,131

Credit/debit card and ATM income is primarily composed of bailment fees which are earned from bailment arrangements with our customers. Bailment arrangements are legal relationships in which property is delivered to another party's temporary custody and control without a transfer of ownership. The party receiving the property (the bailee) has possession and control of the property and is obligated to take reasonable care of the property. The party who transferred the property (the bailor) retains ownership interest of the property. In the event that the bailee files for bankruptcy protection, the property is not included in the bailee's assets. The bailee pays an agreed-upon fee for the use of the bailor's property in exchange for the bailor allowing use of the assets at the bailee's site. Bailment fees are earned from cash that is owned by WSFS but available for customers' use at an offsite location, such as cash located in an ATM at a customer's place of business. This revenue stream generates fee income through monthly billing for bailment services.

Credit/debit card and ATM income also includes interchange fees. Interchange fees are paid by a merchant's bank to a bank that issued the debit or credit card used in a transaction to compensate the issuing bank for the value and benefit the merchant receives from accepting electronic payments. These revenue streams generate fee income at the time a transaction occurs and are recorded as revenue at the time of the transaction.

Investment management and fiduciary income

The following table presents the components of investment management and fiduciary income:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018		2017
Trust fees	$	5,248	$	4,296
Wealth management and advisory fees	3,941		3,743
Total investment management and fiduciary income	$	9,189	$	8,039

Investment management and fiduciary income is primarily composed of trust fees and wealth management fees. Trust fees are based on revenue earned from investment and trustee services to families and individuals across the U.S.; custody, escrow and trustee services on structured finance transactions; indenture trustee, administrative agent and collateral agent services to institutions and corporations; and commercial domicile and independent director services. Most fees are flat fees, except for a portion of personal and corporate trustee fees where we earn a percentage of assets under management. This revenue stream primarily generates fee income through monthly, quarterly and annual billing for services provided.

Wealth management fees consists of fees from Cypress Capital, West Capital, Powdermill, Wealth Client Management and WSFS Investment Group (WIG). Wealth management fees are based on revenue earned from services including asset management, financial planning, family office, and brokerage. The fees are based on the market value of assets, are assessed as a flat fee, or are brokerage commissions. This revenue stream primarily generates fee income through quarterly and annual billing for the services.

Deposit service charges

The following table presents the components of deposit service charges:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018		2017
Service fees	$	2,580	$	2,396
Return and overdraft fees	1,884		1,845
Other deposit service fees	166		156
Total deposit service charges	$	4,630	$	4,397

Deposit service charges includes revenue earned from our core deposit products, certificates of deposit, and brokered deposits. We generate revenues from deposit service charges primarily through service charges and overdraft fees. Service charges consist primarily of monthly account maintenance fees, cash management fees, foreign ATM fees and other maintenance fees. All of these revenue streams generate fee income through service charges for monthly account maintenance and similar items, transfer fees, late fees, overlimit fees, and stop payment fees. Revenue is recorded at the time of the transaction.

Other income

The following table presents the components of other income:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018		2017
Managed service fees	2,826		2,619
Currency preparation	725		683
ATM insurance	590		697
Miscellaneous products and services	1,767		1,197
Total other income	$	5,908	$	5,196

Other income primarily consists of managed services, currency preparation, ATM insurance and other miscellaneous products and services offered by the Bank. These fees are primarily generated through monthly billings or at the time of the transaction.

Arrangements with multiple performance obligations

Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, we allocate revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We generally determine standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers.

Practical expedients and exemptions

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Mortgage-backed securities (MBS) may have expected maturities that differ from their contractual maturities. These differences arise because issuers may have the right to call securities and borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalty.

Investment securities with fair market values aggregating $619.0 million and $688.2 million were pledged as collateral for retail customer repurchase agreements, municipal deposits, and other obligations as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we sold $7.0 million of debt securities categorized as available for sale, resulting in realized gains of less than $0.1 million and no realized losses. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we sold $263.0 million of debt securities categorized as available for sale, resulting in realized gains of $0.3 million and one security with an immaterial realized loss. The cost basis of all debt securities sales is based on the specific identification method.

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, our debt securities portfolio had remaining unamortized premiums of $13.9 million and $14.1 million, respectively, and unaccreted discounts of $1.3 million as of both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

At March 31, 2018, we owned debt securities totaling $945.3 million for which the amortized cost basis exceeded fair value. Total unrealized losses on these securities were $26.9 million at March 31, 2018. The temporary impairment is the result of changes in market interest rates subsequent to purchase. Our investment portfolio is reviewed each quarter for indications of OTTI. This review includes analyzing the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been lower than the amortized cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which may influence the operations of the issuer and our intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for full recovery of the unrealized loss. We evaluate our intent and ability to hold debt securities based upon our investment strategy for the particular type of security and our cash flow needs, liquidity position, capital adequacy and interest rate risk position. We do not have the intent to sell, nor is it more likely-than-not we will be required to sell these securities before we are able to recover the amortized cost basis.

All debt securities, with the exception of one having a fair value of $0.8 million at March 31, 2018, were AA-rated or better at the time of purchase and remained investment grade at March 31, 2018. All securities were evaluated for OTTI at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The result of this evaluation showed no OTTI as of March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017. The estimated weighted average duration of MBS was 5.42 years at March 31, 2018.

6. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES AND CREDIT QUALITY INFORMATION

Allowance for Loan Losses

We maintain an allowance for loan losses which represents our best estimate of probable losses in our loan portfolio. As losses are realized, they are charged to this allowance. We established our allowance in accordance with guidance provided in the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 102 (SAB 102), Selected Loan Loss Allowance Methodology and Documentation Issues, ASC 450, Contingencies and ASC 310, Receivables. When we have reason to believe it is probable that we will not be able to collect all contractually due amounts of principal and interest, loans are evaluated for impairment on an individual basis and a specific allocation of the allowance is assigned in accordance with ASC 310-10. We also maintain an allowance for loan losses on acquired loans when: (i) for loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, there is deterioration in credit quality subsequent to acquisition and (ii) for loans accounted for under ASC 310-20, the inherent losses in the loans exceed the remaining credit discount recorded at the time of acquisition. The determination of the allowance for loan losses requires significant judgment reflecting our best estimate of impairment related to specifically identified impaired loans as well as probable loan losses in the remaining loan portfolio. Our evaluation is based on a continuing review of these portfolios. The following are included in our allowance for loan losses:


•	Specific reserves for impaired loans


•	An allowance for each pool of homogenous loans based on historical loss experience


•	Adjustments for qualitative and environmental factors allocated to pools of homogenous loans

When it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due (interest and principal) in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement, it assigns a specific reserve to that loan, if necessary. Unless loans are well-secured and collection is imminent, loans greater than 90 days past due are deemed impaired and their respective reserves are generally charged-off once the loss has been confirmed. Estimated specific reserves are based on collateral values, estimates of future cash flows or market valuations. We charge loans off when they are deemed to be uncollectible. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, net charge-offs totaled $3.4 million, or 0.29%, of average loans annualized, and $2.1 million, or 0.19%, of average loans annualized, respectively.

Allowances for pooled homogeneous loans, that are not deemed impaired, are based on historical net loss experience. Estimated losses for pooled portfolios are determined differently for commercial loan pools and retail loan pools. Commercial loans are pooled as follows: commercial, owner-occupied commercial, commercial mortgages and construction. Each pool is further segmented by internally assessed risk ratings. Loan losses for commercial loans are estimated by determining the probability of default and expected loss severity upon default. The probability of default is calculated based on the historical rate of migration to impaired status during the last 29 quarters. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we increased the look-back period to 29 quarters from the 28 quarters used at December 31, 2017. This increase in the look-back period allows us to continue to anchor to the fourth quarter of 2010 to ensure that the core reserves calculated by the ALLL model are adequately considering the losses within a full credit cycle.

Loss severity upon default is calculated as the actual loan losses (net of recoveries) on impaired loans in their respective pool during the same time frame. Retail loans are pooled into the following segments: residential mortgage, consumer secured and consumer unsecured loans. Pooled reserves for retail loans are calculated based solely on average net loss rates over the same 29 quarter look-back period.

Qualitative adjustment factors consider various current internal and external conditions which are allocated among loan types and take into consideration:


•	Current underwriting policies, staff, and portfolio mix,


•	Internal trends of delinquency, nonaccrual and criticized loans by segment,


•	Risk rating accuracy, control and regulatory assessments/environment,


•	General economic conditions - locally and nationally,


•	Market trends impacting collateral values, and


•	The competitive environment, as it could impact loan structure and underwriting.

The above factors are based on their relative standing compared to the period in which historic losses are used in core reserve estimates and current directional trends. Qualitative factors in our model can add to or subtract from core reserves.

The allowance methodology uses a loss emergence period (LEP), which is the period of time between an event that triggers the probability of a loss and the confirmation of the loss. We estimate the commercial LEP to be approximately nine quarters as of March 31, 2018. Our residential mortgage and consumer LEP remained at four quarters as of March 31, 2018. We evaluate LEP quarterly for reasonableness and complete a detailed historical analysis of our LEP annually for our commercial portfolio and review the current four quarter LEP for the retail portfolio to determine the continued reasonableness of this assumption.

Table of Contents

Our loan officers and risk managers meet at least quarterly to discuss and review the conditions and risks associated with individual problem loans. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review our loan ratings and allowance for loan losses and the Bank’s internal loan review department performs loan reviews.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans

Nonaccruing loans are those on which the accrual of interest has ceased. Typically, we discontinue accrual of interest on originated loans after payments become more than 90 days past due or earlier if we do not expect the full collection of principal or interest in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. Interest accrued but not collected at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed and charged against interest income. In addition, the accretion of net deferred loan fees and amortization of net deferred loan costs is suspended when a loan is placed on nonaccrual status. Subsequent cash receipts are applied either to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on our assessment of the ultimate collectability of principal and interest. Loans greater than 90 days past due and still accruing are defined as loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments, but which remain in accrual status because they are considered well secured and are in the process of collection.

Impaired Loans

Loans for which it is probable we will not collect all principal and interest due according to their contractual terms, which is assessed based on the credit characteristics of the loan and/or payment status, are measured for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SAB 102 and FASB ASC 310, Receivables (ASC 310). The amount of impairment is required to be measured using one of three methods: (1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (2) the fair value of collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent or (3) the loan’s observable market price. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, a related allowance is allocated for the impairment.

Interest income of $0.3 million was recognized on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2018. Interest income of $0.3 million was recognized on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

As of March 31, 2018, there were 38 residential loans and 10 commercial loans in the process of foreclosure. The total outstanding balance on the loans was $3.3 million and $6.1 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2017, there were 33 residential loans and 8 commercial loans in the process of foreclosure. The total outstanding balance on the loans was $2.9 million and $6.0 million, respectively.

Reserves on Acquired Nonimpaired Loans

In accordance with FASB ASC 310, loans acquired by the Bank through its mergers with First National Bank of Wyoming, Alliance Bancorp, Inc. (Alliance) and Penn Liberty are required to be reflected on the balance sheet at their fair values on the date of acquisition as opposed to their contractual values. Therefore, on the date of acquisition establishing an allowance for acquired loans is prohibited. After the acquisition date the Bank performs a separate allowance analysis on a quarterly basis to determine if an allowance for loan loss is necessary. Should the credit risk calculated exceed the purchased loan portfolio’s remaining credit mark, additional reserves will be added to the Bank’s allowance. When a purchased loan becomes impaired after its acquisition, it is evaluated as part of the Bank’s reserve analysis and a specific reserve is established to be included in the Bank’s allowance.

Table of Contents

Credit Quality Indicators

Below is a description of each of our risk ratings for all commercial loans:


•	Pass. These borrowers currently show no indication of deterioration or potential problems and their loans are considered fully collectible

•

Special Mention. Borrowers have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. Borrowers in this category may be experiencing adverse operating trends, for example, declining revenues or margins, high leverage, tight liquidity, or increasing inventory without increasing sales. These adverse trends can have a potential negative effect on the borrower’s repayment capacity. These assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Bank to significant risk that would warrant a more severe rating. Borrowers in this category may also be experiencing significant management problems, pending litigation, or other structural credit weaknesses.

•

Substandard. Borrowers have well-defined weaknesses that require extensive oversight by management. Borrowers in this category may exhibit one or more of the following: inadequate debt service coverage, unprofitable operations, insufficient liquidity, high leverage, and weak or inadequate capitalization. Relationships in this category are not adequately protected by the sound financial worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged on the loan, if any. A distinct possibility exists that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

•

Doubtful. Borrowers have well-defined weaknesses inherent in the Substandard category with the added characteristic that the possibility of loss is extremely high. Current circumstances in the credit relationship make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable. A doubtful asset has some pending event that may strengthen the asset that defers the loss classification. Such impending events include: perfecting liens on additional collateral, obtaining collateral valuations, an acquisition or liquidation preceding, proposed merger, or refinancing plan.


•	Loss. Borrowers are uncollectible or of such negligible value that continuance as a bankable asset is not supportable. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical to defer writing off this asset even though partial recovery may be recognized sometime in the future.

Residential and Consumer Loans

The residential and consumer loan portfolios are monitored on an ongoing basis using delinquency information and loan type as credit quality indicators. These credit quality indicators are assessed in the aggregate in these relatively homogeneous portfolios. Loans that are greater than 90 days past due are generally considered nonperforming and placed on nonaccrual status.

The following tables provide an analysis of loans by portfolio segment based on the credit quality indicators used to determine the Allowance for Loan Loss.

8. ASSOCIATE BENEFIT PLANS

Postretirement Medical Benefits

We share certain costs of providing health and life insurance benefits to eligible retired Associates (employees) and their eligible dependents. Previously, all Associates were eligible for these benefits if they reached normal retirement age while working for us. Effective March 31, 2014, we changed the eligibility of this plan to include only those Associates who have achieved ten years of service with us as of March 31, 2014. As of December 31, 2014, we began to use the mortality table issued by the Office of the Actuary of the U.S. Bureau of Census in October 2014 in our calculation.

We account for our obligations under the provisions of FASB ASC 715, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (ASC 715). ASC 715 requires that we recognize the costs of these benefits over an Associate’s active working career. Amortization of unrecognized net gains or losses resulting from experience different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions is included as a component of net periodic benefit cost over the remaining service period of active employees to the extent that such gains and losses exceed 10% of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation, as of the beginning of the year. We recognize our net periodic benefit cost in Salaries, benefits and other compensation in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following are disclosures of the net periodic benefit cost components of postretirement medical benefits measured at January 1, 2018 and 2017.

Alliance Associate Pension Plan

During the fourth quarter of 2015, we completed the acquisition of Alliance and its wholly owned subsidiary, Alliance Bank, headquartered in Broomall, Pennsylvania. At the time of the acquisition we assumed the Alliance pension plan offered to its current associates.

The following table shows the net periodic benefit cost components for the Alliance Associate Pension Plan benefits measured at January 1, 2018.

9. INCOME TAXES

We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). ASC 740 requires the recording of deferred income taxes that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. We exercise significant judgment in the evaluation of the amount and timing of the recognition of the resulting tax assets and liabilities. The judgments and estimates required for the evaluation are updated based on changes in business factors and the tax laws. If actual results differ from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating the amount and timing of tax recognized, there can be no assurance that additional expenses will not be required in future periods.

ASC 740 prescribes a minimum probability threshold that a tax position must meet before a financial statement benefit is recognized. We recognize, when applicable, interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the financial statements. Assessment of uncertain tax positions under ASC 740 requires careful consideration of the technical merits of a position based on our analysis of tax regulations and interpretations.

We accounted for the tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted on December 22, 2017, on a provisional basis. At December 31, 2017, the accounting for certain income tax effects was incomplete, but we determined reasonable estimates for those effects which were included in the financial statements. We expect to complete the accounting during 2018 in accordance with the one year measurement period.

There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2018. We record interest and penalties on potential income tax deficiencies as income tax expense. Our federal and state tax returns for the 2014 through 2017 tax years are subject to examination as of March 31, 2018. We do not expect to record or realize any material unrecognized tax benefits during 2018.

As a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2014-01, “Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects,” the amortization of our low-income housing credit investments has been reflected as income tax expense. Accordingly, $0.5 million of such amortization has been reflected as income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2017.

The amount of affordable housing tax credits, amortization and tax benefits recorded as income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $0.4 million, $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The carrying value of the investment in affordable housing credits is $13.3 million at March 31, 2018, compared to $13.8 million at December 31, 2017.

10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we issued stock-based compensation awards to certain associates including stock options and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The number of shares reserved for issuance under our 2013 Incentive Plan (2013 Plan) is 2,096,535. At March 31, 2018, there were 276,508 shares available for future grants under the 2013 Plan.

We record stock-based compensation expense related to awards granted to associates in Salaries, benefits and other compensation; expense related to awards granted to directors is recorded in Other operating expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Total stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $1.0 million ($0.8 million after tax) and $0.9 million ($0.6 million after tax), respectively.

Stock Options

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we awarded 72,521 stock options to certain Associates with a weighted average exercise price of $48.33. Stock options granted during 2018 vest in 25% per annum increments, start to become exercisable one year from the grant date and expire seven years from the grant date. We issue new shares upon the exercise of options.

We determine the grant date fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The model requires the use of numerous assumptions, many of which are subjective. The expected term was derived from historical exercise patterns and represents the amount of time that stock options granted are expected to be outstanding. Other significant assumptions used to determine the grant date fair value of options granted in 2018 include volatility measured using the fluctuation in month end closing stock prices over a period which corresponds with the average expected option life; a weighted-average risk-free rate of return (zero coupon treasury yield); and a dividend yield indicative of our current dividend rate.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the assumptions we used to value options awarded during the three months ended March 31, 2018:



	March 31, 2018
Expected term (in years)	5.3
Volatility	23.0	%
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate	2.69	%
Dividend yield	0.74	%

The total amount of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options as of March 31, 2018 was $1.3 million. The weighted-average period over which the expense is expected to be recognized is 2.84 years. During the first quarter of 2018, we recognized $0.3 million of compensation expense related to these awards.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units

During three months ended March 31, 2018, we awarded 44,177 RSUs to certain Associates with a grant date fair value per unit of $48.40. RSUs are granted at no cost to the recipient and generally vest over a four year period. All outstanding awards granted to senior executives vest over no less than a four year period. The 2013 Plan allows for awards with vesting periods less than four years subject to Board approval. The fair value of RSUs is equal to the fair value of our Common Stock on the date of grant.

The total amount of compensation cost to be recognized relating to non-vested restricted stock as of March 31, 2018 was $3.8 million. The weighted average period over which the expense is expected to be recognized is 2.91 years. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized $0.6 million of compensation cost related to these awards.

11. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:


•	Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

•

Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.


•	Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Table of Contents

The following tables present financial instruments carried at fair value as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 by level in the valuation hierarchy (as described above):

Table of Contents

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Fair value is based on quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on internally developed models or obtained from third parties that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include unobservable parameters. Our valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While we believe our valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Available-for-sale securities

As of March 31, 2018, securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. Included in the Level 2 total are $907.8 million in Federal Agency MBS. We believe that this Level 2 designation is appropriate for these securities under ASC 820-10 as, with almost all fixed income securities, none are exchange traded, and all are priced by correlation to observed market data. For these securities we obtain fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, U.S. government and agency yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the security’s terms and conditions, among other factors.

Other investments

Other investments includes our investments in equity securities with and without readily determinable fair values. Equity investments with readily determinable fair values are categorized as Level 1. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values, which includes our Visa Class B shares, are categorized as Level 3. Our Visa Class B ownership includes shares acquired at no cost from our prior participation in Visa’s network while Visa operated as a cooperative as well as shares subsequently acquired through private transactions and auctions.

Our equity investments without readily determinable fair values are held at cost, and are adjusted for any observable transactions during the reporting period. As a result of our adoption of ASU 2016-01 and observable market transactions, we recorded an unrealized gain on these shares of $15.3 million as of March 31, 2018. See Note 4 for further information.

Other real estate owned

Other real estate owned consists of loan collateral which has been repossessed through foreclosure or other measures. Initially, foreclosed assets are recorded at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically and the assets may be marked down further, reflecting a new cost basis. The fair value of our real estate owned was estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals obtained from third parties.

Loans held for sale

The fair value of our loans held for sale is based on estimates using Level 2 inputs. These inputs are based on pricing information obtained from wholesale mortgage banks and brokers and applied to loans with similar interest rates and maturities.

Impaired loans

We evaluate and value impaired loans at the time the loan is identified as impaired, and the fair values of such loans are estimated using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Each loan’s collateral has a unique appraisal and management’s discount of the value is based on the factors unique to each impaired loan. The significant unobservable input in determining the fair value is management’s subjective discount on appraisals of the collateral securing the loan, which typically ranges from 10% - 20%. Collateral may consist of real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable and the value of these assets is determined based on the appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by us. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, estimated costs to sell, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business.

The gross amount of impaired loans, which are measured for impairment by either calculating the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or determining the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans was $59.9 million and $62.1 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The valuation allowance on impaired loans was $3.8 million as of March 31, 2018 and $5.0 million as of December 31, 2017.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The reported fair values of financial instruments are based on a variety of factors. In certain cases, fair values represent quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments. In other cases, fair values have been estimated based on assumptions regarding the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows that are discounted to reflect current market rates and varying degrees of risk. Accordingly, the fair values may not represent actual values of the financial instruments that could have been realized as of period-end or that will be realized in the future.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and cash equivalents

For cash and short-term investment securities, including due from banks, federal funds sold or purchased under agreements to resell and interest-bearing deposits with other banks, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment securities

Fair value is estimated using quoted prices for similar securities, which we obtain from a third party vendor. We utilize one of the largest providers of securities pricing to the industry and management periodically assesses the inputs used by this vendor to price the various types of securities owned by us to validate the vendor’s methodology as described above in available-for-sale securities.

Other investments

Other investments includes our investments in equity securities with and without readily determinable fair values (see discussion in “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities” section above).

Loans held for sale

Loans held for sale are carried at their fair value (see discussion in “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities” section above).

Loans

Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type: commercial, commercial mortgages, owner-occupied commercial, construction, residential mortgages and consumer. For loans that reprice frequently, the book value approximates fair value. The fair values of other types of loans, with the exception of reverse mortgages, are estimated by discounting expected cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with comparable credit ratings and for similar remaining maturities. The fair values of reverse mortgages are based on the net present value of the expected cash flows using a discount rate specific to the reverse mortgages portfolio. The fair value of nonperforming loans is based on recent external appraisals of the underlying collateral. Estimated cash flows, discounted using a rate commensurate with current rates and the risk associated with the estimated cash flows, are utilized if appraisals are not available. This technique does not contemplate an exit price.

Stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Pittsburgh

The fair value of FHLB stock is assumed to be equal to its cost basis, since the stock is non-marketable but redeemable at its par value.

Other assets

Other assets includes, among other things, investments in subsidiaries, prepaid expenses, interest and fee income receivable, derivative financial instruments and deferred tax assets (see discussion in “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities” section above).

Table of Contents

Deposits

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, money market and interest-bearing demand deposits, is assumed to be equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using rates currently offered for deposits with comparable remaining maturities.

Borrowed funds

Rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt.

Other Liabilities

Other liabilities includes, among others, cash flow derivatives and derivative on the residential mortgage held for sale pipeline. Valuation of our cash flow derivative is obtained from an independent pricing service and also from the derivative counterparty. Valuation for the residential mortgage held for sale pipeline is based on valuation of the loans held for sale portfolio as described above in Loans held for sale.

Off-balance sheet instruments

The fair value of off-balance sheet instruments, including commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, approximates the recorded net deferred fee amounts, which are not significant. Because commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are generally not assignable by either us or the borrower, they only have value to us and the borrower.

The book value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments are as follows:

12. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

We are exposed to certain risks arising from both economic conditions and our business operations. We principally manage our exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our assets and liabilities. We manage a matched book with respect to our derivative instruments in order to minimize our net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Our cash flow hedging program began in the third quarter of 2016.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments

The table below presents the fair value of our derivative financial instruments as well as their location on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of March 31, 2018.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest income and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of fixed amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecast transaction affects earnings. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with a variable rate loan pool. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we did not record any hedge ineffectiveness.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives are reclassified to interest income as interest payments are received on our variable-rate pooled loans. During the next twelve months, we estimate that $0.8 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest income. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, $0.1 million was reclassified into interest income.

We are hedging our exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions over a maximum period of 1 month (excluding forecasted transactions related to the payment of variable interest on existing financial instruments).

As of March 31, 2018, we had three outstanding interest rate derivatives with a notional of $75 million that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

Credit risk-related Contingent Features

We have agreements with certain of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if we default on any of our indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations.

We also have agreements with certain of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if we fail to maintain our status as a well/adequately capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and we would be required to settle our obligations under the agreements.

As of March 31, 2018, the termination value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $(4.2) million. We have minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain of our derivative counterparties, and have posted collateral of $4.5 million against our obligations under these agreements. If we had breached any of these provisions at March 31, 2018, we could have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at the termination value.

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION

As defined in FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting (ASC 280), an operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision makers to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. We evaluate performance based on pretax net income relative to resources used, and allocate resources based on these results. The accounting policies applicable to our segments are those that apply to our preparation of the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Based on these criteria, we have identified three segments: WSFS Bank, Cash Connect^®, and Wealth Management.

The WSFS Bank segment provides financial products to commercial and retail customers. Retail and Commercial Banking, Commercial Real Estate Lending and other banking business units are operating departments of WSFS Bank. These departments share the same regulator, the same market, many of the same customers and provide similar products and services through the general infrastructure of the Bank. Accordingly, these departments are not considered discrete segments and are appropriately aggregated within the WSFS Bank segment in accordance with ASC 280.

Cash Connect^® provides ATM vault cash and smart safe and cash logistics services through strategic partnerships with several of the largest networks, manufacturers and service providers in the ATM industry. Cash Connect^® services non-bank and WSFS-branded ATMs and retail safes nationwide. The balance sheet category “Cash in non-owned ATMs” includes cash from which fee income is earned through bailment arrangements with customers of Cash Connect^®.

The Wealth Management segment provides a broad array of fiduciary, investment management, credit and deposit products to clients through six business lines. WSFS Wealth Investments provides insurance and brokerage products primarily to our retail banking clients. Cypress, a registered investment adviser whose primary market segment is high-net-worth individuals, offers a "balanced" investment style focused on preservation of capital and providing current income. West Capital, a registered investment adviser, is a fee-only wealth management firm which operates under a multi-family office philosophy and provides fully-customized solutions tailored to the unique needs of institutions and high-net-worth individuals. Christiana Trust provides fiduciary and investment services to personal trust clients, and trustee, agency, bankruptcy administration, custodial and commercial domicile services to corporate and institutional clients. Powdermill is a multi-family office that specializes in providing unique, independent solutions to high-net-worth individuals, families and corporate executives through a coordinated, centralized approach. WSFS Wealth Client Management serves high-net-worth clients by delivering credit and deposit products and partnering with other business units to deliver investment management and fiduciary products and services.

14. INDEMNIFICATIONS AND GUARANTEES

Secondary Market Loan Sales

Given the current interest rate environment and our overall asset and liability management approach, we typically sell newly originated residential mortgage loans in the secondary market to mortgage loan aggregators and on a more limited basis, to government sponsored entities (GSEs) such as FHLMC, FNMA, and the FHLB. Loans held for sale are reflected on our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at fair value with changes in the value reflected in our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. Gains and losses are recognized at the time of sale. We periodically retain the servicing rights on residential mortgage loans sold which results in monthly service fee income. The mortgage servicing rights are included in our intangible assets in our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Otherwise, we sell loans with servicing released on a nonrecourse basis. Rate-locked loan commitments that we intend to sell in the secondary market are accounted for as derivatives under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815).

We do not sell loans with recourse, except for standard loan sale contract provisions covering violations of representations and warranties and, under certain circumstances, early payment default by the borrower. These are customary repurchase provisions in the secondary market for residential mortgage loan sales. These provisions may include either an indemnification from loss or the repurchase of the loans. Repurchases and losses have been rare and no provision is made for losses at the time of sale. There were no such repurchases for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Swap Guarantees

We entered into agreements with four unrelated financial institutions whereby those financial institutions entered into interest rate derivative contracts (interest rate swap transactions) with customers referred to them by us. Under the terms of the agreements, those financial institutions have recourse to us for any exposure created under each swap transaction in the event that the customer defaults on the swap agreement and the agreement is in a paying position to the third-party financial institution. This is a customary arrangement that allows us to provide access to interest rate swap transactions for our customers without creating the swap ourselves. These swap guarantees are accounted for as credit derivatives.

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 129 and 134 variable-rate to fixed-rate swap transactions between the third party financial institutions and our customers. The initial notional aggregate amount was approximately $558.3 million at March 31, 2018 compared to $561.8 million at December 31, 2017. At March 31, 2018 maturities ranged from under one year to ten years. The aggregate market value of these swaps to the customers was a liability of $4.7 million at March 31, 2018 and $3.3 million at December 31, 2017. We had no reserves for the swap guarantees as of March 31, 2018.

15. CHANGE IN ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

Accumulated other comprehensive loss includes unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments, unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges, as well as unrecognized prior service costs, transition costs, and actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit pension plans. Changes to accumulated other comprehensive loss are presented net of tax as a component of stockholders' equity. Amounts that are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss are recorded on the Consolidated Statement of Income either as a gain or loss.

Changes to accumulated other comprehensive loss by component are shown net of taxes in the following tables for the period indicated:

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In the ordinary course of business, from time to time we enter into transactions with related parties, including, but not limited to, our officers and directors. These transactions are made on substantially the same terms and conditions, including interest rates and collateral requirements, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other customers. They do not, in the opinion of management, involve greater than normal credit risk or include other unfavorable features.

The outstanding balances of loans to related parties at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $2.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Total deposits from related parties at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $6.9 million and $5.4 million, respectively. During the first quarter of 2018, new loans and credit line advances to related parties were $0.8 million and repayments were less than $0.1 million.

17. LEGAL AND OTHER PROCEEDINGS

In accordance with the current accounting standards for loss contingencies, we establish reserves for litigation-related matters that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities when it is probable that a loss associated with a claim or proceeding has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Litigation claims and proceedings of all types are subject to many uncertain factors that generally cannot be predicted with assurance. In addition, our defense of litigation claims may result in legal fees, which we expense as incurred.

As previously disclosed, on February 27, 2018, we entered into a settlement agreement with Universitas Education, LLC (Universitas) to resolve claims related to services provided by Christiana Bank and Trust Company (Christiana Trust) prior to its acquisition by WSFS in December 2010. In accordance with the settlement agreement, we paid Universitas $12.0 million to fully settle the claims. WSFS will pursue all of its rights and remedies to recover this settlement payment and related costs, including by enforcing the indemnity right in the 2010 purchase agreement by which we acquired Christiana Trust. Additionally, we have taken steps to recover expenses from various insurance carriers. We intend to pursue all claims that we have for full restitution of this settlement.

There were no material changes or additions to other significant pending legal or other proceedings involving us other than those arising out of routine operations.

As a provider of trust services to our clients, we are exposed to operational, reputation-related and legal risks due to the inherent complexity of the trust business. To mitigate these risks, we rely on the hiring, development and retention of experienced Associates, financial controls, managerial oversight, and other risk management practices. Also, from time to time our trust business may give rise to disputes with clients and we may be exposed to litigation which could result in significant costs. The ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Financial Condition

Total assets decreased $11.6 million, or less than 1.0%, to $6.99 billion at March 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017. Bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) decreased $97.2 million, or 94.4%, due to the previously disclosed planned policy surrender. Loans held for sale decreased $15.1 million, or 49%, consistent with our strategy to sell most newly originated residential mortgages in the secondary market. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $12.8 million, or 2%, primarily due to improved cash optimization at Cash Connect^® resulting in lower cash balances in non-owned ATMs. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $70.3 million, or 8% in available-for-sale investment securities, due to our redeployment of cash received from the surrender of our BOLI policies into mortgage-backed securities. Net loans, excluding loans held for sale, increased $29.4 million, or 1%, primarily due to increases in commercial and consumer loans, partially offset by a decline in residential mortgages. In addition, as of March 31, 2018, we recorded an initial valuation adjustment of $15.3 million to our equity investment in Visa Class B shares as a result of our adoption of ASU 2016-01 (see Notes 1 and 11 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information).

Total liabilities decreased $33.5 million, or 1%, to $6.24 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2018. FHLB advances decreased $122.8 million, or 17% partially offset by an increase of $97.0 million in federal funds purchased and an increase of $20.2 million, or 58%, in other borrowed funds. Deposits decreased $45.1 million, or 1%, including a decrease of $69.2 million in customer deposits, partially offset by an increase of $24.1 million in brokered deposits. The decline in deposits includes a $55.0 million decrease in public funding account balances, which is consistent with historical seasonal trends. Other liabilities increased $14.7 million or 17%, primarily due to the timing of settlement of purchases of debt securities from the proceeds of the planned surrender of our BOLI policies.

Capital Resources

Share Repurchases: During the first quarter of 2018, WSFS repurchased 70,000 shares of common stock at an average price of $49.69 as part of our 5% share buyback program approved by the Board of Directors during the fourth quarter of 2015. WSFS has 629,194 shares, or more than 2% of outstanding shares, remaining to repurchase under this authorization.

Stockholders’ equity increased $21.9 million between December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $37.4 million and an increase of $3.6 million related to the issuance of stock based compensation and stock option expense. These were partially offset by a decline in the fair value of our available-for-sale securities portfolio of $11.8 million, year-to-date stock buybacks of $3.5 million and the payment of common stock dividends of $2.8 million.

Book value per share of common stock was $23.72 at March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.66, or 3% from $23.06 at December 31, 2017. Tangible book value per share of common stock (a non-GAAP financial measure) was $17.75 at March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.69, or 4%, from $17.06 at December 31, 2017. We believe tangible common book value per share helps management and investors better understand and assess changes from period to period in stockholders’ equity exclusive of changes in intangible assets. This non-GAAP data should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. For a reconciliation of tangible common book value per share to book value per share in accordance with GAAP, see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measure to GAAP Measure."

Regulators have established five capital tiers: well-capitalized, adequately-capitalized, under-capitalized, significantly under-capitalized, and critically under-capitalized. A depository institution’s capital tier depends on its capital levels in relation to various relevant capital measures, which include leveraged and risk-based capital measures and certain other factors. Depository institutions that are not classified as well-capitalized are subject to various restrictions regarding capital distributions, payment of management fees, acceptance of brokered deposits and other operating activities.

Regulatory capital requirements for the Bank and the Company include a minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.50% of risk-weighted assets, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.00% of risk-weighted assets, a minimum Total capital ratio of 8.00% of risk-weighted assets and a minimum Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 4.00% of average assets.

Not included in the Bank’s capital, the Company separately held $38.5 million in cash to support share repurchases, potential dividends, acquisitions, strategic growth plans and other general corporate purposes.

As shown in the table above, as of March 31, 2018, the Bank and the Company were in compliance with regulatory capital requirements and exceeded the amounts required to be considered “well capitalized” as defined in the regulations.

Liquidity

We manage our liquidity and funding needs through our Treasury function and our Asset/Liability Committee. We have a policy that separately addresses liquidity, and management monitors our adherence to policy limits. Also, liquidity risk management is a primary area of examination by the banking regulators.

We have ready access to several funding sources to fund growth and meet our liquidity needs. Among these are cash from operations, retail deposit programs, loan repayments, FHLB borrowings, repurchase agreements, access to the Federal Discount Window, and access to the brokered deposit market as well as other wholesale funding avenues. In addition, we have a large portfolio of high-quality, liquid investments, primarily short-duration mortgage-backed securities, that provide a near-continuous source of cash flow to meet current cash needs, or can be sold to meet larger discrete needs for cash. We believe these sources are sufficient to meet our funding needs as well as maintain required and prudent levels of liquidity over the next twelve months.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, cash and cash equivalents decreased $12.8 million to $711.1 million from $723.9 million as of December 31, 2017. Cash provided by operating activities was $62.5 million, reflecting the cash impact of earnings and increased sales of loans held for sale during the three months ended March 31, 2018. Cash used for investing activities was $20.8 million, primarily due to $86.5 million in net cash paid for debt securities and increased lending of $34.0 million, partially offset by $96.4 million received from the planned surrender of our BOLI policies. Cash used for financing activities was $54.5 million, primarily due to a $24.9 million net decrease in deposits, $122.8 million used to repay FHLB advances, $3.5 million for repurchase of common stock and cash paid for dividends of $2.8 million, partially offset by $97.0 million for receipts from federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase, and $2.6 million for the issuance and exercise of common stock options.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS

Nonperforming assets include nonaccruing loans, OREO and restructured loans. Nonaccruing loans are those on which we no longer accrue interest. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status immediately if, in the opinion of management, collection is doubtful, or when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and the value of the collateral is insufficient to cover principal and interest. Interest accrued but not collected at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed and charged against interest income. In addition, the amortization of net deferred loan fees is suspended when a loan is placed on nonaccrual status. Subsequent cash receipts are applied either to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on management’s assessment of the ultimate collectability of principal and interest. Past due loans are defined as loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments but which remain in accrual status because they are considered well secured and in the process of collection.

Nonperforming assets decreased $2.1 million between December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018. This reduction was primarily due to the partial charge-off in the amount of $2.5 million on one large C&I relationship. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.84% at both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

The following table summarizes the changes in nonperforming assets during the periods indicated:

The timely identification of problem loans is a key element in our strategy to manage our loan portfolio. Problem loans are all criticized, classified and nonperforming loans and other real estate owned. Timely identification enables us to take appropriate action and, accordingly, minimize losses. An asset review system established to monitor the asset quality of our loans and investments in real estate portfolios facilitates the identification of problem assets. In general, this system utilizes guidelines established by federal regulation.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

The matching of maturities or repricing periods of interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities to promote a favorable interest rate spread and mitigate exposure to fluctuations in interest rates is our primary tool for achieving our asset/liability management strategies. We regularly review our interest rate sensitivity and adjust the sensitivity within acceptable tolerance ranges. At March 31, 2018, interest-earning liabilities exceeded interest-bearing assets that mature or reprice within one year (interest-sensitive gap) by $59.7 million. Our interest-sensitive assets as a percentage of interest-sensitive liabilities within the one-year window decreased from 98.24% at December 31, 2017 to 98.12% at March 31, 2018. Likewise, the one-year interest-sensitive gap as a percentage of total assets decreased from (0.81%) at December 31, 2017 to (0.86%) at March 31, 2018. The low rate level of sensitivity reflects our continuing efforts to effectively manage interest rate risk.

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in our lending, investing, and funding activities. To that end, we actively monitor and manage our interest rate risk exposure. One measure, which we are required to perform by federal regulation, measures the impact of an immediate change in interest rates in 100 basis point increments on the economic value of equity ratio. The economic value of the equity ratio is defined as the economic value of the estimated cash flows from assets and liabilities as a percentage of economic value of cash flows from total assets.

The following table shows the estimated impact of immediate changes in interest rates on our net interest margin and economic value of equity ratio at the specified levels at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

⁽³⁾	Sensitivity indicated by a decrease of 200 or 300 basis points is not deemed meaningful (NMF) given the low absolute level of interest rates in the periods presented.

We also engage in other business activities that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For example, mortgage banking revenues and expenses can fluctuate with changing interest rates. These fluctuations are difficult to model and estimate.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended March 31, 2018: Net income was $37.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with $18.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $57.7 million, an increase of $4.6 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017, due primarily to loan portfolio growth, higher interest income from mortgage-backed securities due to higher purchases in the quarter, and lower interest expense on senior debt due to our redemption of the 2012 senior notes during the third quarter of 2017, partially offset by higher interest expense on deposits and FHLB advances. Noninterest income increased $19.4 million to $47.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to $15.3 million of unrealized gain related to our Visa Class B shares resulting from our adoption of ASU 2016-01 as well as growth across all business lines. See “Noninterest (Fee) Income” for further information. Noninterest expense increased $1.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily reflecting higher employee-related and ongoing operating costs to support our organic and acquisition growth offset by the fraud loss recovery. See “Noninterest Expense” for further information.

Table of Contents

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, net interest income increased $4.6 million, or 9% from the three months ended March 31, 2017. Net interest margin was 4.01% for the first quarter of 2018, an 11 basis point increase compared to 3.90% for the first quarter of 2017. The increase in net interest margin includes the positive effects of the overall higher short-term interest rate environment, the redemption of $55.0 million of the 2012 senior notes in late third quarter 2017, and changes in balance sheet growth and mix, partially offset by an anticipated decline in purchase loan accretion due to payments on and maturities of acquired loans.

Provision/Allowance for Loan Losses

We maintain an allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level based on our assessment of estimable and probable losses in the loan portfolio. Our evaluation is based on a review of the portfolio and requires significant, complex and difficult judgments. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we recorded a provision for loan losses of $3.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Provision for the first quarter of 2018 increased $1.5 million from the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to the restructuring of a large, non-performing commercial relationship and related charge-off during the period.

Our allowance for loan losses is based on the inherent risk of our loans and various other factors including but not limited to, collateral values, trends in asset quality, level of delinquent loans and concentrations. In addition, regional economic conditions are taken into consideration. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

The allowance for loan losses was $40.8 million at March 31, 2018 and $40.6 million at December 31, 2017. The allowance for loan losses and provision reflects the addition of reserves related to an increase of $29.3 million in total net loans (excluding reverse mortgages) at March 31, 2018 when compared to December 31, 2017 as well as loan downgrades and a modest increase in qualitative adjustment factors, partially offset by several loan upgrades. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total gross loans was 0.84% at both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. This ratio excluding the impact of all purchased loans would have been 0.96% and 0.97% at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The ratio of net charge-offs to total gross loans net of unearned income, which excludes loans held for sale and reverse mortgages, was 0.29% and 0.22% (annualized) at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

See Note 6 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Noninterest (Fee) Income

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company earned noninterest income of $47.5 million, an increase of $19.4 million, or 69%, compared to $28.1 million in the first quarter of 2017. Included in this increase is an unrealized gain of $15.3 million related to our adoption of ASU 2016-01 and its impact on the valuation of our equity investment in Visa Class B shares. The remaining increase was primarily due to growth across all business lines, including an increase of $1.7 million in credit/debit card and ATM income, an increase of $1.2 million in investment management and fiduciary income, an increase of $1.0 million related to our traditional banking business, and an increase of $0.6 million from mortgage banking activities. See Notes 1 and 11 to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about our adoption of ASU 2016-01.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2018 was $53.4 million, an increase of $1.9 million, or 4%, from $51.5 million in the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to higher employee-related and ongoing operating costs of $3.7 million to support our organic and acquisition growth, partially offset by a fraud loss recovery of $1.7 million recorded during the quarter.

Income Taxes

We and our subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and separate state income tax returns. Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with ASC 740, which requires the recording of deferred income taxes for tax consequences of temporary differences. We recorded an income tax expense of $10.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to an income tax expense of $8.6 million for the same period in 2017.

Our effective tax rate was 22.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to 31.2% during the same period in 2017. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 decreased primarily due to the reduction in the statutory federal corporate rate from 35% to 21% effective for 2018. Further, the tax benefit related to stock-based compensation activity during the quarter pursuant to ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), decreased as compared to the prior quarter since the corporate tax rate declined. The tax benefit recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $0.6 million compared to $1.3 million for the comparable period in 2017.

The effective tax rate reflects the recognition of certain tax benefits in the financial statements including those benefits from tax-exempt interest income, federal low-income housing tax credits, and excess tax benefits from recognized stock compensation. These tax benefits are offset by the tax effect of stock-based compensation expense related to incentive stock options, nondeductible acquisition costs and a provision for state income tax expense.

We frequently analyze our projections of taxable income and make adjustments to our provision for income taxes accordingly.

Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations at March 31, 2018 did not significantly change from our contractual obligations at December 31, 2017, which are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, and at March 31, 2017, which are disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURE TO GAAP MEASURE

The following table provides a reconciliation of tangible common book value per share of common stock to book value per share of common stock, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We believe this measure helps management and investors better understand and assess changes from period to period in stockholders’ equity exclusive of changes in intangible assets.

Stockholders’ equity	$	746,279	$	724,345
Less: Goodwill and other intangible assets	187,790		188,444
Tangible common equity (numerator)	$	558,489	$	535,901
Shares of common stock outstanding (denominator)	31,463		31,418

Goodwill and other intangible assets	5.97		6.00
Tangible book value per share of common stock	$	17.75	$	17.06

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. We regularly evaluate these estimates and assumptions including those used to determine the allowance for loan losses, deferred taxes, fair value measurements, goodwill and other intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other factors and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These form the basis for making judgments on the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although our current estimates contemplate current economic conditions and how we expect them to change in the future, for the remainder of 2018, it is possible that actual conditions may be worse than anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For further discussion of our critical accounting estimates, see the "Management's Discussion and Analysis - Critical Accounting Estimates" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS

General

As a federally chartered savings institution the Bank is subject to regulation by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), an independent agency in the executive branch of the U.S. government, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve) and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), collectively referred to as the Federal banking agencies. The lending activities and other investments of the Bank must comply with various federal regulatory requirements. The OCC periodically examines the Bank for compliance with regulatory requirements. The FDIC also has the authority to conduct special examinations of the Bank. The Bank is required to file periodic reports with the OCC describing its activities and financial condition. The Bank is also subject to certain reserve requirements promulgated by the FHFA and the Federal Reserve.

Basel III

In 2013, the Federal banking agencies approved the final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision capital guidelines for U.S. banking organizations. Under the final rules as of January 2015, minimum requirements increased for both the quantity and quality of capital maintained by the Company and the Bank. The rules included a new common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets minimum ratio of 4.5%, raised the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0%, required a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 10.0%, and required a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%. The final rule also established a new capital conservation buffer, comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital, above the regulatory minimum capital requirements. The phase-in of the capital conservation buffer began on January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each subsequent year by an additional 0.625% until reaching its final level of 2.50% on January 1, 2019. For 2017, the capital conservation buffer is 1.25%. The final rules also revised the standards for an insured depository institution to be “well-capitalized” under the banking agencies’ prompt corrective action framework, requiring a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.5%, Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.0% and total capital ratio of 10.0%, while leaving unchanged the existing 5.0% leverage ratio requirement. Strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments were also implemented under the final rules. Newly issued trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock may no longer be included in Tier 1 capital. However, for depository institution holding companies of less than $15 billion in total consolidated assets, such as the Company, most outstanding trust preferred securities and other non-qualifying securities issued prior to May 19, 2010 are permanently grandfathered to be included in Tier 1 capital (up to a limit of 25% of Tier 1 capital, excluding non-qualifying capital instruments). As of March 31, 2018, we had approximately $67.0 million of trust preferred securities outstanding, all of which are counted as Tier 1 capital.

The phase-in period for the final rules began for us on January 1, 2015. Full compliance with all of the final rule’s requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule is required by January 1, 2019. As of March 31, 2018, the Company and the Bank met the applicable standards, and the Bank was “well-capitalized” under the prompt corrective action rules.

In 2014, the Federal banking agencies adopted a “liquidity coverage ratio” requirement (LCR) for large internationally active banking organizations, and in 2016, the agencies proposed a “net stable funding ratio” standard (NSFR) for the same group of institutions. The LCR measures an organizations’ ability to meet liquidity demands over a 30-day horizon; the NSFR would test the same capacity over a one-year horizon. Neither requirement applies directly to the Company or the Bank, but the policies embedded in them may inform the work of the examiners as they consider our liquidity.

London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”)

In 2017, a committee of private-market derivative participants and their regulators convened by the Federal Reserve, the Alternative Reference Rate Committee (“ARRC”), was created to identify an alternative reference interest rates to replace LIBOR.

Table of Contents

The ARRC announced a Secured Overnight Funding Rate (“SOFR”), a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasury securities, as its preferred alternative to LIBOR. The Chief Executive of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced its intention to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR to the administrator of LIBOR after 2021. Subsequently, the Federal Reserve announced final plans for the production of SOFR, which resulted in the commencement of its published rates by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on April 2, 2018.
