NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

Triumph Bancorp, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Triumph”, or the “Company” as applicable) is a financial holding company headquartered in Dallas, Texas. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Triumph CRA Holdings, LLC (“TCRA”), TBK Bank, SSB (“TBK Bank”), TBK Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary Advance Business Capital LLC, which currently operates under the d/b/a of Triumph Business Capital (“TBC”), and TBK Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary Triumph Insurance Group, Inc. (“TIG”).

On March 16, 2018, the Company sold the assets of Triumph Healthcare Finance (“THF”) and exited its healthcare asset-based lending line of business. THF operated within the Company’s TBK Bank subsidiary. See Note 2 – Business Combinations and Divestitures for details of the THF sale and its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with guidance provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the condensed financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation. Transactions between the subsidiaries have been eliminated. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.

The Company has three reportable segments consisting of Banking, Factoring, and Corporate. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer uses segment results to make operating and strategic decisions.

Premises and Equipment

The Company leases certain properties and equipment under operating leases. For leases in effect upon adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” at January 1, 2019 and for any leases commencing thereafter, the Company recognizes a liability to make lease payments, the “lease liability”, and an asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term, the “right-of-use asset”. The lease liability is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The right-of-use asset is measured at the amount of the lease liability adjusted for the remaining balance of any lease incentives received, any cumulative prepaid or accrued rent if the lease payments are uneven throughout the lease term, any unamortized initial direct costs, and any impairment of the right-of-use-asset. Operating lease expense consists of a single lease cost calculated so that the remaining cost of the lease is allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis, variable lease payments not included in the lease liability, and any impairment of the right-of-use asset.

Certain of the Company’s leases contain options to renew the lease; however, these renewal options are not included in the calculation of the lease liabilities as they are not reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company’s leases do not contain residual value guarantees or material variable lease payments. The Company does not have any material restrictions or covenants imposed by leases that would impact the Company’s ability to pay dividends or cause the Company to incur additional financial obligations.

The Company has made an accounting policy election to not apply the recognition requirements in Topic 842 to short-term leases. The Company has also elected to use the practical expedient to make an accounting policy election for property leases to include both lease and nonlease components as a single component and account for it as a lease.

The Company’s leases are not complex; therefore there were no significant assumptions or judgements made in applying the requirements of Topic 842, including the determination of whether the contracts contained a lease, the allocation of consideration in the contracts between lease and nonlease components, and the determination of the discount rates for the leases.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). The FASB issued this ASU to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under current U.S. GAAP and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2019. ASU 2016-02 provides for a modified retrospective transition approach requiring lessees to recognize and measure leases on the balance sheet at the beginning of either the earliest period presented or as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company elected to apply ASU 2016-02 as of the beginning of the period of adoption (January 1, 2019) and will not restate comparative periods. Adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in the recognition of lease liabilities totaling $21,918,000 and the recognition of right-of-use assets totaling $22,123,000 as of the date of adoption. Lease liabilities and right-of-use assets are reflected in other liabilities and other assets, respectively. The initial balance sheet gross up upon adoption was primarily related to operating leases of certain real estate properties. The Company has no finance leases or material subleases or leasing arrangements for which it is the lessor of property or equipment. The Company has elected to apply the package of practical expedients allowed by the new standard under which the Company need not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are leases or contain leases, the Company need not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing lease, and the Company need not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. Adoption of ASU 2016-02 does not materially change the Company’s recognition of lease expense. See Note 5 – Leases for additional disclosures related to leases.

Newly Issued, But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 makes significant changes to the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments presented on an amortized cost basis and disclosures about them. The new current expected credit loss (CECL) impairment model will require an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the contractual life of an instrument, which considers reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions. The standard provides significant flexibility and requires a high degree of judgment throughout the estimation process including, but not limited to, pooling financial assets with similar risk characteristics and adjusting the relevant historical loss information in order to develop an estimate of expected lifetime losses. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2019, and interim periods within those years for public business entities that are SEC filers. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. ASU 2016-13 permits the use of estimation techniques that are practical and relevant to the Company’s circumstances, as long as they are applied consistently over time and faithfully estimate expected credit losses in accordance with the standard. The ASU lists several common credit loss methods that are acceptable such as a discounted cash flow (DCF) method, loss-rate method and roll-rate method. Parallel runs will continue to be enhanced throughout 2019 as the processes, controls and policies are finalized.

The Company’s cross-functional implementation team continues to make progress in accordance with the Company’s implementation plan for adoption. The Company has developed new expected credit loss estimation models. Depending on the nature of each identified pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, the Company currently plans on implementing a DCF method or a loss-rate method to estimate expected credit losses. Incorporating reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions into the estimate of expected credit losses will require significant judgment, such as selecting economic variables and forecast scenarios as well as determining the appropriate length of the forecast horizon. Management will estimate credit losses over a forecast horizon and revert to long term historical loss experience on a straight line basis. Management will select economic variables it believes to be most relevant based on the composition of the loan portfolio, likely to include forecasted levels of employment, retail sales, and gross domestic product. Management currently intends to leverage economic projections from a reputable and independent third party to inform its reasonable and supportable forecasts over the one-year forecast period. Other internal and external indicators of economic forecasts will also be considered by management when developing the forecast metrics.

The ultimate impact of ASU 2016-13 will depend on the composition of the portfolio and economic conditions and forecasts at the time of adoption. It could also be subject to further regulatory or accounting guidance and other management validation and judgments. Based on our loan portfolio at September 30, 2019 and management’s current expectation of future economic conditions, the balances of the allowance for credit losses and retained earnings are not expected to materially change upon adoption of ASU 2016-13. More specifically, the allowance for credit losses is expected to increase slightly for the real estate lending portfolios given their longer contractual maturities relative to the loan portfolio as a whole. The commercial and industrial portfolios and the factored receivables portfolio make up the majority of the loan portfolio and consist of loans and lending arrangements with relatively short contractual maturities that are expected to result in a slight reduction to the allowance for credit losses. This estimated impact at adoption also includes certain qualitative adjustments to the allowance for credit losses.

Management does not currently expect to record any allowance for credit losses on available for sale securities and does not currently expect that the allowance for credit losses on held to maturity securities will be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASU 2016-13. The ultimate impact will depend upon the nature and characteristics of our securities portfolios (including issuer specific matters) at the adoption date, the macroeconomic conditions and forecasts at that date, and other management judgments.

NOTE 2 – Business combinations AND DIVESTITURES

First Bancorp of Durango, Inc. and Southern Colorado Corp.

Effective September 8, 2018 the Company acquired (i) First Bancorp of Durango, Inc. (“FBD”) and its community banking subsidiaries, The First National Bank of Durango and Bank of New Mexico and (ii) Southern Colorado Corp. (“SCC”) and its community banking subsidiary, Citizens Bank of Pagosa Springs, in all-cash transactions. The acquisitions expanded the Company’s market in Colorado and into New Mexico and further diversified the Company’s loan, customer, and deposit base.

The goodwill in these acquisitions resulted from expected synergies and expansion in the Colorado market and into the New Mexico market. The goodwill will be deducted for tax purposes. The intangible assets recognized in the transactions will be amortized utilizing an accelerated method over their ten year estimated useful lives.

ICC’s net assets acquired were allocated to the Company’s Factoring segment whose factoring operations were significantly expanded as a result of the transaction. The Company has recognized goodwill of $42,975,000, which was calculated as the excess of both the fair value of cash consideration exchanged and the fair value of the contingent liability assumed as compared to the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired and was allocated to the Company’s Factoring segment. The goodwill in this acquisition resulted from expected synergies and expansion in the factoring market. The goodwill will be deducted for tax purposes. The intangible assets recognized include a customer relationship intangible asset with an acquisition date fair value of $13,500,000 which will be amortized utilizing an accelerated method over its eight year estimated useful life and a trade name intangible asset with an acquisition date fair value of $420,000 which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over its three year estimated useful life.

Consideration paid included contingent consideration with an acquisition date fair value of $20,000,000. The contingent consideration is based on a proprietary index designed to approximate the rise and fall of transportation invoice prices subsequent to acquisition and is correlated to historical monthly movements in average invoice prices historically experienced by ICC. At the end of a 30 month earnout period, a final average index price will be calculated and the contingent consideration will be settled in cash based on the final average index price. Final contingent consideration payout will range from $0 to $22,000,000 and the fair value of the associated liability will be remeasured each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income. The fair value of the contingent consideration was $21,426,000 at September 30, 2019.

Revenue and earnings of ICC since the acquisition date have not been disclosed as the acquired company was merged into the Company and separate financial information is not readily available.

Expenses related to the acquisition, including professional fees and other transaction costs, totaling $1,094,000 were recorded in noninterest expense in the consolidated statements of income during the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Management evaluates debt securities for other than temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

At September 30, 2019, the Company had 78 debt securities in an unrealized loss position. Management does not have the intent to sell any of these securities and believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Management does not believe that any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2019, management believes that the unrealized losses detailed in the previous table are temporary and no other than temporary impairment loss has been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

The difference between the recorded investment and the unpaid principal balance is primarily (1) premiums and discounts associated with acquisition date fair value adjustments on acquired loans (both PCI and non-PCI) totaling $15,820,000 and $19,514,000 at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and (2) net deferred origination and factoring fees totaling $2,302,000 and $2,579,000 at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had $57,850,000 and $58,566,000, respectively, of customer reserves associated with factored receivables. These amounts represent customer reserves held to settle any payment disputes or collection shortfalls, may be used to pay customers’ obligations to various third parties as directed by the customer, are periodically released to or withdrawn by customers, and are reported as deposits in the consolidated balance sheets.

Loans with carrying amounts of $1,150,097,000 and $847,523,000 at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, were pledged to secure Federal Home Loan Bank borrowing capacity.

Credit Quality Information

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, including: current collateral and financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk on a regular basis. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as consumer loans, are analyzed primarily based on payment status. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass – Pass rated loans have low to average risk and are not otherwise classified.

Classified – Classified loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Certain classified loans have the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

PCI – At acquisition, PCI loans had the characteristics of classified loans and it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required principal and interest payments would not be collected. The Company evaluates these loans on a projected cash flow basis with this evaluation performed quarterly.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans is as follows:

NOTE 7 – Variable Interest Entities

Collateralized Loan Obligation Funds – Closed

The Company holds investments in the subordinated notes of the following closed Collateralized Loan Obligation (“CLO”) funds:

	Offering	Offering
(Dollars in thousands)	Date	Amount
Trinitas CLO IV, LTD (Trinitas IV)	June 2, 2016	$	406,650
Trinitas CLO V, LTD (Trinitas V)	September 22, 2016	$	409,000
Trinitas CLO VI, LTD (Trinitas VI)	June 20, 2017	$	717,100

The carrying amounts of the Company’s investments in the subordinated notes of the CLO funds, which represent the Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the CLO funds, totaled $8,517,000 and $8,487,000 at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and are classified as held to maturity securities within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The Company performed a consolidation analysis to confirm whether the Company was required to consolidate the assets, liabilities, equity or operations of the closed CLO funds in its financial statements. The Company concluded that the closed CLO funds were variable interest entities and that the Company holds variable interests in the entities in the form of its investments in the subordinated notes of entities. However, the Company also concluded that the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance. As a result, the Company was not the primary beneficiary and therefore was not required to consolidate the assets, liabilities, equity, or operations of the closed CLO funds in the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 8 - Legal Contingencies

Various legal claims have arisen from time to time in the normal course of business which, in the opinion of management, will have no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 9 - OFF-BALANCE SHEET LOAN COMMITMENTS

From time to time, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.

The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet financial instruments.

The contractual amounts of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk were as follows:

	September 30, 2019						December 31, 2018
(Dollars in thousands)	Fixed Rate		Variable Rate		Total		Fixed Rate		Variable Rate		Total
Unused lines of credit	$	51,403	$	440,565	$	491,968	$	69,053	$	433,667	$	502,720
Standby letters of credit	$	6,484	$	5,183	$	11,667	$	2,285	$	3,931	$	6,216
Commitments to purchase loans	$	—	$	40,250	$	40,250	$	—	$	—	$	—
Mortgage warehouse commitments	$	—	$	391,615	$	391,615	$	—	$	266,458	$	266,458

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being fully drawn upon, the total commitment amounts disclosed above do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if considered necessary by the Company, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. In the event of nonperformance by the customer, the Company has rights to the underlying collateral, which can include commercial real estate, physical plant and property, inventory, receivables, cash and marketable securities. The credit risk to the Company in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to its customers.

Commitments to purchase loans represent loans purchased by the Company that have not yet settled.

Mortgage warehouse commitments are unconditionally cancellable and represent the unused capacity on mortgage warehouse facilities the Company has approved. The Company reserves the right to refuse to buy any mortgage loans offered for sale by a customer, for any reason, at the Company’s sole and absolute discretion.

The Company records an allowance for loan and lease losses on off-balance sheet lending-related commitments through a charge to other noninterest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of income. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the allowance for loan and lease losses on off-balance sheet lending-related commitments totaled $655,000 and $538,000, respectively, and was included in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

In addition to the commitments above, the Company had overdraft protection available in the amounts of $2,693,000 and $3,087,000 at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

NOTE 10 - Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

TRIUMPH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The methods of determining the fair value of assets and liabilities presented in this note are consistent with our methodologies disclosed in Note 15 of the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized in the table below.

There were no transfers between levels during 2019 or 2018.

On June 2, 2018, the Company acquired substantially all of the operating assets of, and assumed certain liabilities associated with, Interstate Capital Corporation’s (“ICC”) accounts receivable factoring business and other related financial services. Consideration for the acquisition included contingent consideration, which is based on a proprietary index designed to approximate the rise and fall of transportation invoice prices subsequent to acquisition. The index is calculated by a third party data analytics firm and is correlated to monthly movements in average invoice prices historically experienced by ICC. At the end of a 30 month earnout period after closing, a final average index price will be calculated and the contingent consideration will be settled in cash based on the final average index price, with a payout ranging from $0 to $22,000,000. The fair value of the contingent consideration is calculated each reporting period, and changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are recorded in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the ICC contingent consideration liability was the only recurring fair value measurement with Level 3 unobservable inputs. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value calculation of the contingent consideration resulted in a payout of $22,000,000, and discount rates of 2.1% and 2.9%, respectively, were applied to calculate the present value of the contingent consideration. A reconciliation of the opening balance to the closing balance of the fair value of the contingent consideration is as follows:

Impaired Loans with Specific Allocation of ALLL: A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due pursuant to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured by estimating the fair value of the loan based on the present value of expected cash flows, the market price of the loan, or the underlying fair value of the loan’s collateral. For real estate loans, fair value of the impaired loan’s collateral is determined by third party appraisals, which are then adjusted for the estimated selling and closing costs related to liquidation of the collateral. For this asset class, the actual valuation methods (income, sales comparable, or cost) vary based on the status of the project or property. For example, land is generally based on the sales comparable method while construction is based on the income and/or sales comparable methods. The unobservable inputs may vary depending on the individual assets with no one of the three methods being the predominant approach. The Company reviews the third party appraisal for appropriateness and adjusts the value downward to consider selling and closing costs, which typically range from 5% to 8% of the appraised value. For non-real estate loans, fair value of the impaired loan’s collateral may be determined using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business.

OREO: OREO is primarily comprised of real estate acquired in partial or full satisfaction of loans. OREO is recorded at its estimated fair value less estimated selling and closing costs at the date of transfer, with any excess of the related loan balance over the fair value less expected selling costs charged to the ALLL. Subsequent changes in fair value are reported as adjustments to the carrying amount and are recorded against earnings. The Company outsources the valuation of OREO with material balances to third party appraisers. For this asset class, the actual valuation methods (income, sales comparable, or cost) vary based on the status of the project or property. For example, land is generally based on the sales comparable method while construction is based on the income and/or sales comparable methods. The unobservable inputs may vary depending on the individual assets with no one of the three methods being the predominant approach. The Company reviews the third party appraisal for appropriateness and adjusts the value downward to consider selling and closing costs, which typically range from 5% to 8% of the appraised value.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were as follows:

NOTE 11 - Regulatory Matters

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and TBK Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s or TBK Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and TBK Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and TBK Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total, common equity Tier 1, and Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company and TBK Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, TBK Bank’s capital ratios exceeded those levels necessary to be categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well capitalized,” TBK Bank must maintain minimum total risk based, common equity Tier 1 risk based, Tier 1 risk based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since September 30, 2019 that management believes have changed TBK Bank’s category.

Beginning in January 2016, the implementation of the capital conservation buffer set forth by the Basel III regulatory capital framework was effective for the Company starting at 0.625% of risk weighted assets above the minimum risk based capital ratio requirements and increasing 0.625% each year thereafter, until it reached 2.5% on January 1, 2019. The capital conservation buffer was 2.5% and 1.875% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress and requires increased capital levels for the purpose of capital distributions and other payments. Failure to meet the full amount of the buffer will result in restrictions on the Company’s ability to make capital distributions, including dividend payments and stock repurchases, and to pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s and TBK Bank’s risk based capital exceeded the required capital conservation buffer.

PSUs granted to employees under the Omnibus Incentive Plan vest after three to five years. The number of shares issued upon vesting will range from 0% to 175% of the PSUs granted based on the Company’s relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) as compared to the TSR of a specified group of peer banks. Compensation expense for the PSUs will be recognized over the vesting period of the awards based on the fair value of the award at the grant date. The fair value of PSUs granted is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. Expected volatilities were determined based on the historical volatilities of the Company and the specified peer group. The risk-free interest rate for the performance period was derived from the Treasury constant maturities yield curve on the valuation date.

Weighted average fair value per share of options granted	$	10.03	$	13.22

Stock options awarded to employees under the Omnibus Incentive Plan are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant, vest over four years, and have ten year contractual terms. The fair value of stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatilities were determined based on a blend of the Company’s historical volatility and historical volatilities of a peer group of companies with a similar size, industry, stage of life cycle, and capital structure. The expected term of the options granted was determined based on the SEC simplified method, which calculates the expected term as the mid-point between the weighted average time to vesting and the contractual term. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the options was derived from the Treasury constant maturity yield curve on the valuation date.

The fair value of the stock options granted was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019			2018
Risk-free interest rate		2.33	%		2.85	%
Expected term	6.25 years			6.25 years
Expected stock price volatility		27.46	%		28.07	%
Dividend yield		—			—

As of September 30, 2019, there was $454,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining period of 2.69 years.

The following table presents the Company’s operating segments. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Note 1 of the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K. Transactions between segments consist primarily of borrowed funds. Beginning in 2019, intersegment interest expense is allocated to the Factoring segment based on Federal Home Loan Bank advance rates. Prior to 2019, intersegment interest was calculated based on the Company’s prime rate. The provision for loan loss is allocated based on the segment’s allowance for loan loss determination. Noninterest income and expense directly attributable to a segment are assigned to it. Taxes are paid on a consolidated basis but not allocated for segment purposes. The Factoring segment includes only factoring originated by TBC. General factoring services not originated through TBC are included in the Banking segment.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s interim consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and other detailed information appearing in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. To the extent that this discussion describes prior performance, the descriptions relate only to the periods listed, which may not be indicative of our future financial outcomes. In addition to historical information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause results to differ materially from management’s expectations.

Overview

We are a financial holding company headquartered in Dallas, Texas and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act. Through our wholly owned bank subsidiary, TBK Bank, we offer traditional banking services, commercial finance product lines focused on businesses that require specialized financial solutions and national lending product lines that further diversify our lending operations. Our traditional banking offerings include a full suite of lending and deposit products and services focused on our local market areas. These activities generate a stable source of core deposits and a diverse asset base to support our overall operations. Our commercial finance product lines generate attractive returns and include factoring, asset-based lending, and equipment lending products offered on a nationwide basis. Our national lending product lines provide further asset base diversification and include mortgage warehouse, liquid credit, and premium finance offered on a nationwide basis. As of September 30, 2019, we had consolidated total assets of $5.040 billion, total loans held for investment of $4.209 billion, total deposits of $3.698 billion and total stockholders’ equity of $633.7 million.

A key element of our strategy is to supplement the asset generation capacity in our community banking markets with commercial finance product lines which are offered on a nationwide basis and which serve to enhance the overall yield of our portfolio. These products include our factoring services, provided principally in the transportation sector, and our asset-based lending and equipment finance products. Year to date, our aggregate outstanding balances for these products has increased $92.2 million, or 7.8%, to $1.276 billion as of September 30, 2019, due to organic growth. The following table sets forth our commercial finance product lines:

	September 30,		December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)	2019		2018
Commercial finance
Commercial - Equipment	$	429,412	$	352,037
Commercial - Asset-based lending		247,026		214,110
Factored receivables		599,651		617,791
Total commercial finance loans	$	1,276,089	$	1,183,938

Our national lending product lines include mortgage warehouse, liquid credit, and premium finance. Mortgage warehouse lending provides portfolio diversification by allowing unaffiliated mortgage originators to close one-to-four family real estate loans in their own name and manage cash flow needs until the loans are sold to investors. Our liquid credit portfolio, which consists of broadly syndicated shared national credits, provides an accordion feature allowing us to opportunistically scale our loan portfolio. Premium finance provides a lending product that complements our commercial finance products. The following table sets forth our national lending lines:

	September 30,		December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)	2019		2018
National lending
Mortgage warehouse	$	587,697	$	313,664
Commercial - Liquid credit		37,386		963
Commercial - Premium finance		101,562		72,302
Total national lending loans	$	726,645	$	386,929

Most of our products and services share basic processes and have similar economic characteristics. However, our factoring subsidiary, Triumph Business Capital, operates in a highly specialized niche and earns substantially higher yields on its factored accounts receivable portfolio than our other lending products. This business also has a legacy and structure as a standalone company. We have determined our reportable segments are Banking, Factoring, and Corporate. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our Banking segment generated 69% of our total revenue (comprised of interest and noninterest income), our Factoring segment generated 30% of our total revenue, and our Corporate segment generated 1% of our total revenue.

2019 Items of Note

Warehouse Solutions, Inc. Investment

In October 2019, TBK Bank signed a definitive agreement to make a minority equity investment of $8 million in Warehouse Solutions, Inc. (“WSI”). WSI provides technology solutions to help reduce supply chain costs for a global client base across multiple industries.

Stock Repurchase Program

On October 29, 2018, we announced that our board of directors had authorized us to repurchase up to $25.0 million of our outstanding common stock in open market transactions or through privately negotiated transactions. No repurchases were made under this program during the year ended December 31, 2018; however, during the six months ended June 30, 2019, we repurchased into treasury stock 838,141 shares at an average price of $29.74 for a total of $24.9 million, which effectively completed our previously announced $25.0 million repurchase program. On July 17, 2019, our board of directors authorized us to repurchase up to an additional $25.0 million of our outstanding common stock. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased into treasury stock 850,093 shares at an average price of $29.38 for a total of $25.0 million, which effectively completed our previously announced $25.0 million repurchase program. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased into treasury stock 1,688,234 shares at an average price of $29.56 for a total of $49.9 million.

On October 16, 2019 our board of directors authorized us to repurchase up to an additional $50.0 million of our outstanding common stock. We may repurchase these shares from time to time in open market transactions or through privately negotiated transactions at our discretion. The amount, timing and nature of any share repurchases will be based on a variety of factors, including the trading price of our common stock, applicable securities laws restrictions, regulatory limitations and market and economic factors. This repurchase program is authorized for a period of up to one year and does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares. The repurchase program may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time, at our discretion.

2018 Items of Note

First Bancorp of Durango, Inc. and Southern Colorado Corp.

Effective September 8, 2018, we acquired First Bancorp of Durango, Inc. (“FBD”) and its two community banking subsidiaries, The First National Bank of Durango and Bank of New Mexico, which were merged into TBK Bank upon closing, in an all-cash transaction for $134.7 million. On the same date, we acquired Southern Colorado Corp. (“SCC”) and its community banking subsidiary, Citizens Bank of Pagosa Springs, which was merged into TBK Bank upon closing, in an all-cash transaction for $13.3 million. As part of the FBD and SCC acquisitions, we acquired a combined $287.8 million of loans held for investment, assumed a combined $674.7 million of deposits, and recorded a combined $14.1 million of core deposit intangible assets and $72.1 million of goodwill.

Interstate Capital Corporation

On June 2, 2018 we acquired substantially all of the operating assets of, and assumed certain liabilities associated with, Interstate Capital Corporation’s (“ICC”) accounts receivable factoring business and other related financial services for total consideration of $180.3 million, which was comprised of $160.3 million in cash and contingent consideration with an initial fair value of $20.0 million. As part of the ICC acquisition, we acquired $131.0 million of factored receivables and recorded $13.9 million of intangible assets and $43.0 million of goodwill.

Common Stock Offering

On April 12, 2018, we completed an underwritten common stock offering issuing 5.4 million shares of our common stock, including 0.7 million shares sold pursuant to the underwriters' full exercise of their option to purchase additional shares, at $37.50 per share for total gross proceeds of $202.7 million. Net proceeds after underwriting discounts and offering expenses were $192.1 million. A significant portion of the net proceeds of this offering were used to fund the FBD, SCC and ICC acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

Triumph Healthcare Finance

On January 19, 2018, we entered into an agreement to sell the assets (the “Disposal Group”) of Triumph Healthcare Finance (“THF”) and exit the healthcare asset-based lending line of business. The decision to sell THF was made prior to the end of the fourth quarter of 2017, and at December 31, 2017, the fair value of the Disposal Group exceeded its carrying amount. As a result of this decision, the $71.4 million carrying amount of the Disposal Group was transferred to assets held for sale as of December 31, 2017. The sale was finalized on March 16, 2018 and resulted in a net pre-tax contribution to earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $1.1 million, or approximately $0.8 million net of tax.

The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company include the following:

•

“Adjusted diluted earnings per common share” is defined as adjusted net income available to common stockholders divided by adjusted weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. Excluded from net income available to common stockholders are material gains and expenses related to merger and acquisition-related activities, including divestitures, net of tax. In our judgment, the adjustments made to net income available to common stockholders allow management and investors to better assess our performance in relation to our core net income by removing the volatility associated with certain acquisition-related items and other discrete items that are unrelated to our core business. Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding are adjusted as a result of changes in their dilutive properties given the gain and expense adjustments described herein.

•

“Tangible common stockholders’ equity” is defined as common stockholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets.

•

“Total tangible assets” is defined as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets.

•

“Tangible book value per share” is defined as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by total common shares outstanding. This measure is important to investors interested in changes from period-to-period in book value per share exclusive of changes in intangible assets.

•

“Tangible common stockholders’ equity ratio” is defined as the ratio of tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by total tangible assets. We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in relative changes from period-to period in common equity and total assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets.

•

“Return on average tangible common equity” is defined as net income available to common stockholders divided by average tangible common stockholders’ equity.

•

“Adjusted efficiency ratio” is defined as noninterest expenses divided by our operating revenue, which is equal to net interest income plus noninterest income. Also excluded are material gains and expenses related to merger and acquisition-related activities, including divestitures. In our judgment, the adjustments made to operating revenue allow management and investors to better assess our performance in relation to our core operating revenue by removing the volatility associated with certain acquisition-related items and other discrete items that are unrelated to our core business.

•

“Adjusted net noninterest expense to average total assets” is defined as noninterest expenses net of noninterest income divided by total average assets. Excluded are material gains and expenses related to merger and acquisition-related activities, including divestitures. This metric is used by our management to better assess our operating efficiency.

GAAP Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Results of Operations

Three months ended September 30, 2019 compared with three months ended September 30, 2018.

Net Income

We earned net income of $14.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $9.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $5.1 million.

As discussed in the Third Quarter 2019 Overview above, there were no merger and acquisition related activities during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and therefore, no adjustments were made to net income to arrive at an adjusted net income for the period. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2018 include the results of operations of the assets acquired from FBD and SCC since the September 8, 2018 acquisition date and were impacted by $5.9 million of transaction costs associated with the acquisitions included in noninterest expense. Excluding the transaction costs, net of taxes, we earned adjusted net income of $13.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $14.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $0.7 million. The adjusted increase was primarily the result of a $3.0 million increase in net interest income, a $3.9 million decrease in provision for loan losses, a $1.7 million increase in noninterest income, and a $1.2 million decrease in adjusted income tax expense offset in part by a $9.1 million increase in adjusted noninterest expense.

Details of the changes in the various components of net income are further discussed below.

Net Interest Income

Our operating results depend primarily on our net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest earning assets, including loans and securities, and interest expense incurred on interest bearing liabilities, including deposits and other borrowed funds. Interest rate fluctuations, as well as changes in the amount and type of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, combine to affect net interest income. Our net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, referred to as a “volume change.” It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest earning assets and rates paid on interest bearing liabilities, referred to as a “rate change.”

The following table presents the distribution of average assets, liabilities and equity, as well as interest income and fees earned on average interest earning assets and interest expense paid on average interest bearing liabilities:

The following table presents loan yields earned on our community banking, commercial finance, and national lending loan portfolios:

We earned net interest income of $64.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $61.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $3.0 million, or 4.9%, primarily driven by the following factors.

Interest income increased $7.7 million, or 10.7%, as a result of an increase in average interest earning assets of $674.5 million, or 18.1%, which was attributable to the impact of the FBD and SCC acquisitions which closed during the last month of the third quarter of 2018 and contributed $287.8 million of loans and $270.7 million of securities. Additional interest income also resulted from organic growth in our loan portfolio. The average balance of our higher yielding commercial finance loans increased $24.7 million, or 2.1%, from $1.184 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $1.209 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Our average mortgage warehouse lending balance was $417.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $289.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. We also experienced increased average balances in our other community banking lending products, including commercial real estate and general commercial and industrial loans, due to organic growth period over period. A component of interest income consists of discount accretion on acquired loan portfolios. We recognized discount accretion on purchased loans of $1.2 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Interest expense increased $4.7 million, or 46.8%, as a result of growth in customer deposits and other borrowings as well as higher average rates. Average total interest bearing deposits increased $658.8 million, or 28.9%, primarily due to $674.7 million of customer deposits assumed in the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Excluding the acquired customer deposits, we also experienced growth in our certificates of deposit as these higher cost deposit products were used to fund our growth period over period. We decreased our use of brokered deposits and other interest bearing borrowings, consisting primarily of FHLB advances, period over period however, the decrease in the average balance was offset by an increase in average rate.

Net interest margin decreased to 5.85% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from 6.59% for the three months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of 74 basis points or 11.2%.

Our net interest margin was impacted by a decrease in our yield on interest earning assets of 48 basis points to 7.17% for the three months ended September 30, 2019. This decrease was driven by a change in the overall mix within our loan portfolio period over period which drove a 70 basis point reduction in our loan yield to 7.63% for the same period. Our higher yielding average commercial finance products as a percentage of the total loan portfolio decreased from 36.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to 30.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 contributing to the overall decrease in yield on our loan portfolio. Average factored receivables as a percentage of the total commercial finance portfolio also decreased from 50.6% at September 30, 2018 to 47.9% at September 30, 2019. Our transportation factoring balances, which generate a higher yield than our non-transportation factoring balances, increased as a percentage of the overall factoring portfolio to 79% at September 30, 2019 compared to 78% at September 30, 2018. Yields on all non-loan interest earning assets increased slightly period over period partially offset the impact in decreased loan yield.

The decrease in our net interest margin was also impacted by an increase in our average cost of interest bearing liabilities of 29 basis points. This increase was caused by an increased use of higher rate certificates of deposit to fund our growth period over period, and higher rates on short term and floating rate FHLB advances as well as brokered deposits resulting from higher interest rates in the macro economy.

The following table shows the effects that changes in average balances (volume) and average interest rates (rate) had on the interest earned on our interest earning assets and the interest incurred on our interest bearing liabilities:

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is the amount of expense that, based on our judgment, is required to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) at an appropriate level to absorb estimated incurred losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The determination of the amount of the allowance is complex and involves a high degree of judgment and subjectivity.

Our ALLL was $31.9 million as of September 30, 2019 versus $27.6 million as of December 31, 2018, representing an ALLL to total loans ratio of 0.76% and 0.76% respectively.

Our provision for loan losses was $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of $3.9 million, or 57.4%.

The decrease in provision for loan losses was the result of decreased net charge-offs and more stable reserve rates during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. Net charge-offs decreased $3.7 million from $4.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $0.4 for the same period of 2019. Approximately $0.3 million and $0.7 million of the charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, had specific reserves previously recorded. Charge-offs were elevated during the three months ended September 30, 2018, due to a $4.0 million charge-off on a single asset based lending relationship that resulted from fraudulent conduct believed to be perpetrated by one or more employees of the borrower. In addition, the charge-off resulted in an increase in the estimated rate of the allowance for loan loss reserves recorded against the remaining asset based lending portfolio for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Slightly offsetting the decrease in provision for loan loss period over period was an increase in net new specific reserves of $0.7 million from $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $1.2 million for the same period of 2019.

Noninterest Income

The following table presents our major categories of noninterest income:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2019			2018			$ Change			% Change
Service charges on deposits	$	1,937		$	1,412		$	525			37.2	%
Card income		2,015			1,877			138			7.4	%
Net OREO gains (losses) and valuation adjustments		(56	)		65			(121	)		(186.2	%)
Net gains (losses) on sale of securities		19			—			19			100.0	%
Fee income		1,624			1,593			31			1.9	%
Insurance commissions		1,247			1,113			134			12.0	%
Other		956			(1	)		957		N/M
Total noninterest income	$	7,742		$	6,059		$	1,683			27.8	%

Noninterest income increased $1.7 million, or 27.8%. Changes in selected components of noninterest income in the above table are discussed below.

•

Service charges on deposits. Service charges on deposit accounts, including overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees, increased $0.5 million, or 37.2%, primarily due to additional service charges associated with the increase in customer deposits due to the FBD and SCC acquisitions and organic growth in deposits.

•

Card Income. Debit and credit card income increased $0.1 million, or 7.4%, primarily due to additional customer debit and credit card activity associated with the increase in issued cards resulting from the FBD and SCC acquisitions as well as cards issued to existing customers. This increase was offset by a $0.4 million incentive payment from our debit card provider for the achievement of certain growth goals recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2018. No such incentive payment was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

•

Other. Other noninterest income, consisting of income associated with bank-owned life insurance and other miscellaneous activities, increased $1.0 million primarily due to increased operations resulting from acquisition and organic growth. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, other noninterest income was reduced by a $0.5 million increase in the liability for contingent consideration related to the acquisition of ICC and a $0.3 million write-down on signage and other assets related to rebranding of Triumph Community Bank to our standardized TBK Bank brand. There were no significant items within in the components of other noninterest income during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Noninterest Expense

The following table presents our major categories of noninterest expense:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2019			2018		$ Change			% Change
Salaries and employee benefits	$	28,717		$	24,695	$	4,022			16.3	%
Occupancy, furniture and equipment		4,505			3,553		952			26.8	%
FDIC insurance and other regulatory assessments		(2	)		363		(365	)		(100.6	%)
Professional fees		1,969			3,384		(1,415	)		(41.8	%)
Amortization of intangible assets		2,228			2,064		164			7.9	%
Advertising and promotion		1,379			1,609		(230	)		(14.3	%)
Communications and technology		5,382			7,252		(1,870	)		(25.8	%)
Travel and entertainment		1,350			1,168		182			15.6	%
Other		6,625			4,858		1,767			36.4	%
Total noninterest expense	$	52,153		$	48,946	$	3,207			6.6	%

Noninterest expense increased $3.2 million, or 6.6%. Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was impacted by $5.9 million of transaction costs associated with the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Excluding the FBD and SCC transaction costs, we incurred adjusted noninterest expense of $43.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, resulting in an adjusted net increase in noninterest expense of $9.2 million, or 21.4%, period over period. Details of the more significant changes in the various components of noninterest expense are further discussed below.

•

Salaries and Employee Benefits. Salaries and employee benefits expenses increased $4.0 million, or 16.3%, which is primarily due to an increase in the total size of our workforce between these periods as our average full-time equivalent employees were 1,104.7 and 1,023.3 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Sources of this increased headcount were primarily employees added through the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Other factors contributing to the increase in salaries and employee benefits include merit increases for existing employees, higher health insurance benefit costs, incentive compensation, and 401(k) expense.

•

Occupancy, Furniture and Equipment. Occupancy, furniture and equipment expenses increased $1.0 million, or 26.8%, primarily due to a full quarter of expenses associated with the infrastructure and facilities added through the FBD and SCC acquisitions.

•

FDIC Insurance and Other Regulatory Assessments. FDIC insurance and other regulatory assessments decreased $0.4 million, or 100.6% due to the application of a $0.3 million small bank credit by the FDIC during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

•

Professional Fees. Professional fees, which are primarily comprised of external audit, tax, consulting, and legal fees, decreased $1.4 million, or 41.8%, primarily due to $1.4 million of professional fees incurred in connection with the FBD and SCC acquisitions during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

•

Communications and Technology. Communications and technology expenses decreased $1.9 million, or 25.8%, primarily as a result of $3.1 million in information technology deconversion and termination fees related to our acquisition of FBD and SCC that were recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2018. Partially offsetting this decrease was increased communications and technology expenses related to our increased usage and transaction volumes resulting from the FBD, SCC and ICC acquisitions as well as growth in our organic operations.

•

Other. Other noninterest expense includes loan-related expenses, software amortization, training and recruiting, postage, insurance, business travel and subscription services. Other noninterest expense increased $1.8 million, or 36.4%, primarily due to increased operations resulting from the FBD and SCC acquisitions as well as organic growth in the business. There were no significant increases or decreases in the individual components of other noninterest expense period over period.

Income Taxes

The amount of income tax expense is influenced by the amount of pre-tax income, the amount of tax-exempt income and the effect of changes in valuation allowances maintained against deferred tax benefits.

Income tax expense increased $0.3 million, or 10.3%, from $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The effective tax rate was 18% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to 24% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in the effective tax rate period over period is principally due to an income tax benefit of approximately $0.8 million related to changes in the sourcing location of income and other items during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Operating Segment Results

Our reportable segments are Banking, Factoring, and Corporate, which have been determined based upon their business processes and economic characteristics. This determination also gave consideration to the structure and management of various product lines. The Banking segment includes the operations of TBK Bank. Our Banking segment derives its revenue principally from investments in interest earning assets as well as noninterest income typical for the banking industry. The Banking segment also includes certain factored receivables which are purchased by TBK Bank. The Factoring segment includes the operations of Triumph Business Capital with revenue derived from factoring services. Corporate includes holding company financing and investment activities and management and administrative expenses to support the overall operations of the Company.

Reported segments and the financial information of the reported segments are not necessarily comparable with similar information reported by other financial institutions. Additionally, because of the interrelationships of the various segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities. Changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and procedures may result in future changes to previously reported segment financial data. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Note 1 of the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K. Transactions between segments consist primarily of borrowed funds. Beginning in 2019, intersegment interest expense is allocated to the Factoring segment based on Federal Home Loan Bank advance rates. Prior to 2019, intersegment interest was calculated based on the Company’s prime rate. The provision for loan loss is allocated based on the segment’s ALLL determination. Noninterest income and expense directly attributable to a segment are assigned accordingly. Taxes are paid on a consolidated basis and are not allocated for segment purposes.

Our Banking segment’s operating income increased $3.8 million, or 59.3%.

Interest income increased primarily as a result of increases in the balances of our interest earning assets, primarily loans, due to the continued growth of our commercial finance products and general commercial loans. In addition, we acquired a combined $287.8 million of loans and $270.7 million of investment securities in our Banking segment as part of the FBD and SCC acquisitions which closed during the last month of the third quarter of 2018. Average loans in our Banking segment increased 20.7% from $3.206 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $3.869 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Interest expense increased primarily as a result of higher average rates and growth in average customer deposits and other borrowings due to a combined $674.7 million of customer deposits assumed in the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Excluding the acquired customer deposits, we also experienced growth in our certificates of deposit as these higher cost deposit products were used to fund our growth period over period. We decreased our use of brokered deposits and other interest bearing borrowings, consisting primarily of FHLB advances, period over period however, the decrease in the average balance was offset by an increase in average rate.

The decrease in provision for loan losses was the result of decreased net charge-offs and more stable reserve rates during the three months ended September 30, 2019 at our Banking segment compared to the same period of 2018. Net charge-offs decreased $3.5 million from $3.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $0.4 for the same period of 2019. Approximately $0.1 million and $0.7 million of the charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, had specific reserves previously recorded. Charge-offs were elevated at our banking segment during the three months ended September 30, 2018, due to the $4.0 million charge-off on a single asset based lending relationship discussed in the Provision section above. The charge-off resulted in an increase in the estimated rate of the allowance for loan loss reserves recorded against the remaining asset based lending portfolio for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Slightly offsetting the decrease in provision for loan loss period over period was an increase in net new specific reserves of $0.2 million from $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $0.3 million for the same period of 2019. Additionally, loans in our Banking segment grew at a faster pace for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 which, when combined with changes in the mix of our portfolio and loss factors used partially offset the decrease in our provision for loan losses in the current period.

Noninterest expense increased due to incremental costs associated with the growth in our Banking segment personnel and infrastructure in conjunction with our acquisitions of FBD and SCC, as well as personnel, facilities and infrastructure to support the continued organic growth in our lending operations. In addition, increases due to merit increases for existing employees, higher health insurance benefit costs, incentive compensation, and 401(k) expense contributed to the increase.

Our Factoring segment’s operating income increased $0.5 million, or 5.2%.

Our average invoice size decreased 9.4% from $1,796 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $1,628 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, while the number of invoices purchased increased 6.5% period over period.

Net interest income increased primarily due to a $3.4 million decrease in the interest expense allocated to our Factoring segment. Prior to 2019, intersegment interest was calculated based on the Company’s prime rate. Beginning in 2019, intersegment interest expense is allocated to the Factoring segment based on lower Federal Home Loan Bank advance rates which contributed to the increase in net interest income. Interest income at our factoring segment decreased primarily due to a 6.0% decrease in overall average net funds employed in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018. Net funds employed represent factored receivable balances net of customer reserves. We hold customer reserves to settle any payment disputes or collection shortfalls. They may be also be used to pay customers’ obligations to various third parties as directed by the customer or periodically released to or withdrawn by customers. Customer reserves are reported as deposits in our consolidated balance sheet. The decrease in average NFE was the result of a 9.4% decrease in average invoice size reflecting what the Company believes to be a decrease in transportation demand during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018 due to a combination of macroeconomic factors that caused record demand in the transportation sector in 2018. Demand appears to have settled into a more traditional pattern throughout 2019. These macroeconomic factors influenced invoice prices and utilization, both of which impact NFE and period end balances in our factoring portfolio. These macroeconomic circumstances are evidenced by an increase in the number of invoices purchased by our Factoring segment during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, but a decrease in the total dollar value of invoices purchased during the same periods. Our transportation factoring balances, which typically generate a higher yield than our non-transportation factoring balances, as a percentage of the overall Factoring segment portfolio were flat at 83% during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

The increase in provision for loan losses was primarily the result of higher growth in the ending balance of the factored receivables portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The ending balance of the factored receivables portfolio at our Factoring segment grew $17.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to ending balance growth of $2.4 million over the same time period in 2018. We experienced no significant net charge-offs during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $0.2 million for the same period in 2018. Further, net new allowances on specific at-risk balances at our Factoring segment increased by $0.5 million to $0.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $0.4 million of net new allowances recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

The increase in noninterest income was primarily driven by a $0.5 million increase on our liability for contingent consideration due to the sellers of ICC upon remeasurement of the liability at September 30, 2018 compared to a $0.1 million impact upon remeasurement at September 30, 2019. Noninterest expense was relatively flat period over period reflecting the macroeconomic factors previously discussed.

The Corporate segment reported an operating loss of $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to an operating loss of $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in operating loss was primarily driven by $1.3 million of FBD and SCC-related transaction costs recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2018 with no comparable costs recorded during the corresponding period of 2019. There were no other significant fluctuations in accounts in our Corporate segment period over period.

Results of Operations

Nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with nine months ended September 30, 2018

Net Income

We earned net income of $41.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $33.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $8.2 million.

There were no merger and acquisition related activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and therefore, no adjustments were made to net income to arrive at an adjusted net income for the period. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 include the results of operations of the assets acquired from FBD, SCC, and ICC since their respective acquisition dates and were impacted by a combined $7.0 million of transaction costs associated with the acquisitions included in noninterest expense. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were also impacted by the sale of THF during March 2018, which resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale in the amount of $1.1 million included in noninterest income.

Excluding the tax-effected impact of the FBD, SCC, and ICC transaction costs and the THF sale transaction, we earned adjusted net income of $38.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $41.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $3.7 million. The adjusted increase was primarily the result of a $27.3 million increase in net interest income, a $6.7 million decrease in the provision for loan losses, and a $7.8 million increase in adjusted noninterest income, offset in part by a $38.0 million increase in adjusted noninterest expense and a $0.1 million increase in adjusted income tax expense.

Details of the changes in the various components of net income are further discussed below.

We earned net interest income of $189.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $162.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $27.3 million, or 16.8%, primarily driven by the following factors.

Interest income increased $42.9 million, or 22.9%, as a result of an increase in total average interest earning assets of $815.5 million, or 23.9%, which was attributable to the impact of the FBD and SCC acquisitions which closed during the last month of the third quarter of 2018 and contributed $287.8 million of loans and $270.7 million of securities. Additional interest income also resulted from organic growth in our loan portfolio. The average balance of our higher yielding commercial finance loans increased $143.7 million, or 14.0%, from $1.024 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $1.167 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Additionally, our average mortgage warehouse lending balance was $317.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $238.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. We also experienced increased average balances in our other community banking lending products, including commercial real estate and general commercial and industrial loans, due to organic growth period over period. A component of interest income consists of discount accretion on acquired loan portfolios. We recognized discount accretion on purchased loans of $4.0 million and $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Interest expense increased $15.5 million, or 62.2%, as a result of growth in customer deposits and other borrowings as well as higher average rates. Average total interest bearing deposits increased $721.9 million, or 34.4%, primarily due to $674.7 million of customer deposits assumed in the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Excluding the acquired customer deposits, we also experienced growth in our certificates of deposit and brokered deposits as these higher cost deposit products were used to fund our growth period over period. We decreased our use of other interest bearing borrowings, consisting primarily of FHLB advances, period over period however, the decrease in the average balance was more than offset by an increase in the average rate.

Net interest margin decreased to 5.99% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from 6.35% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of 36 basis points, or 5.7%.

The decrease in our net interest margin primarily resulted from an increase in our average cost of interest bearing liabilities of 36 basis points. This increase was caused by an increased use of higher rate certificates of deposit and brokered deposits to fund our growth period over period, and higher rates on short term and floating rate FHLB advances as a result of higher interest rates in the macro economy. This increase was partially offset by a change in the mix of our interest bearing deposits resulting from lower cost customer deposits assumed in the FBD and SCC acquisitions.

Our net interest margin was also impacted by a decrease in yield on our interest earning assets of 6 basis points to 7.27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This decrease was driven by a change in the overall mix within our loan portfolio period over period which drove a 20 basis point reduction in our loan yield to 7.85% for the same period. Our higher yielding average commercial finance products as a percentage of the total loan portfolio decreased from 34.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 31.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 contributing to the overall decrease in yield on our loan portfolio. Average factored receivables as a percentage of the total commercial finance portfolio increased from 46.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 49.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 partially offsetting the decrease in loan yields. Further, our transportation factoring balances, which generate a higher yield than our non-transportation factoring balances, increased as a percentage of the overall factoring portfolio to 79% at September 30, 2019 compared to 78% at September 30, 2018.

Provision for Loan Losses

Our ALLL was $31.9 million as of September 30, 2019 versus $27.6 million as of December 31, 2018, representing an ALLL to total loans ratio of 0.76% and 0.76% respectively.

Our provision for loan losses was $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $14.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of $6.7 million, or 46.9%.

The decrease in provision for loan losses was the result of decreased net charge-offs, the prior period impact of ICC, and more stable reserve rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. Net charge-offs decreased $2.6 million from $5.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $3.2 for the same period of 2019. Approximately $2.2 million and $1.6 million of the charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, had specific reserves previously recorded. Charge-offs were elevated during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, due to a $4.0 million charge-off on a single asset based lending relationship that resulted from fraudulent conduct believed to be perpetrated by one or more employees of the borrower. In addition, the charge-off resulted in an increase in the estimated rate of the allowance for loan loss reserves recorded against the remaining asset based lending portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Acquired ICC factored receivables were recorded through purchase accounting without an allowance. Given the short term nature of factored receivables, ICC contributed $1.8 million in provision for loan loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to provide for turnover of the receivables subsequent to acquisition as well as portfolio growth. Slightly offsetting the decrease in provision for loan loss period over period was an increase in net new specific reserves of $0.3 million from $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $3.5 million for the same period of 2019.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, outstanding loans increased $600.8 million from December 31, 2018. Excluding the aforementioned impact of the FBD and SCC acquisitions, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, outstanding loans increased $413.4 million from December 31, 2017. The larger increase in loan balances within the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as well as changes in the mix of our portfolio and loss factors used partially offset the decrease in our provision for loan losses in the current period. Given the short term nature of factored receivables, the loan growth figures for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were not adjusted for the acquisition of ICC.

Noninterest Income

The following table presents our major categories of noninterest income:

Total noninterest income	$	22,903	$	16,176		$	6,727			41.6	%

Noninterest income increased $6.7 million, or 41.6%. Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was impacted by the realization of the $1.1 million gain associated with the sale of THF in the first quarter of 2018. Excluding the gain on sale of THF, we earned adjusted noninterest income of $15.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, resulting in an adjusted increase in noninterest income of $7.8 million, or 51.7%, period over period. Changes in selected components of noninterest income in the above table are discussed below.

•

Service Charges on Deposits. Service charges on deposit accounts, including overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees, increased $1.5 million, or 39.2%, primarily due to additional service charges associated with the increase in customer deposits due to the FBD and SCC acquisitions and organic growth in deposits.

•

Card Income. Debit and credit card income increased $1.4 million, or 31.3%, primarily due to additional customer debit and credit card activity associated with the increase in issued cards resulting from the FBD and SCC acquisitions as well as cards issued to existing customers. This increase was offset by a $0.4 million incentive payment from our debit card provider for the achievement of certain growth goals recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. No such incentive payment was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

•

Net OREO gains (losses) and valuation adjustments. Net OREO gains (losses) and valuation adjustments, which represents gains and losses on loans transferred to OREO, gains and losses on the sale of OREO, and valuation adjustments recorded due to the subsequent change in fair value less costs to sell of OREO, reflect increased gains of $0.9 million. OREO activity on any individual assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was not significant.

•

Fee income. Fee income increased $1.2 million, or 35.3%, primarily due to increased check and wire fees resulting from the FBD and SCC acquisitions as well as a full year to date impact of the ICC acquisition.

•

Other. Other noninterest income, including income associated with bank-owned life insurance and other miscellaneous activities, increased $2.0 million, or 137.2% primarily due to increased operations resulting from acquisition and organic growth. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, other noninterest income was reduced by a $0.5 million increase in the liability for contingent consideration related to the acquisition of ICC and a $0.3 million write-down on signage and other assets related to rebranding of Triumph Community Bank to our standardized TBK Bank brand. There were no significant items in the components of other noninterest income during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Noninterest expense increased $31.0 million, or 25.8%. Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was impacted by $1.1 million of transaction costs associated with the ICC acquisition and $5.9 million of transaction costs associated with the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Excluding the ICC, FBD, and SCC transaction costs, we incurred adjusted noninterest expense of $113.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, resulting in an adjusted net increase in noninterest expense of $38.0 million, or 33.5% period over period. Details of the more significant changes in the various components of noninterest expense are further discussed below.

•

Salaries and Employee Benefits. Salaries and employee benefits expenses increased $18.7 million, or 28.9%. We experienced a significant increase in the total size of our workforce between these periods as our average full-time equivalent employees were 1,124.9 and 904.5 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Sources of this increased headcount were primarily employees added through the FBD, SCC and ICC acquisitions. Other factors contributing to the increase in salaries and employee benefits include merit increases for existing employees, higher health insurance benefit costs, incentive compensation, and 401(k) expense.

•

Occupancy, Furniture and Equipment. Occupancy, furniture and equipment expenses increased $3.9 million, or 40.6%, primarily due to expenses associated with the infrastructure and facilities added through the FBD, SCC and ICC acquisitions.

•

FDIC Insurance and Other Regulatory Assessments. FDIC insurance and other regulatory assessments decreased $0.3 million, or 36.5%, primarily due to the application of a small bank credit by the FDIC during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

•

Professional Fees. Professional fees, which are primarily comprised of external audit, tax, consulting, and legal fees, decreased $1.7 million, or 24.2% primarily due to $1.1 million of professional fees incurred in connection with the ICC acquisition and $1.4 million of professional fees incurred in connection with the FBD and SCC acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 that were not incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

•

Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets increased $2.4 million, or 53.6%, primarily due to the full 2019 period impact of the addition of intangible assets resulting from the FBD, SCC, and ICC acquisitions.

•

Advertising and promotion. Advertising and promotion expenses increased $0.8 million, or 21.4%, primarily due to advertising and brand-awareness activities in our branch network as well as various internal initiatives associated with the overall growth of operations.

•

Communications and Technology. Communications and technology expenses increased $1.4 million, or 9.8%, primarily as a result of increased usage and transaction volumes resulting from the FBD, SCC and ICC acquisitions as well as growth in our organic operations. Partially offsetting this increase was $3.1 million in information technology deconversion and termination fees related to our acquisition of FBD and SCC that were recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and not incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

•

Travel and entertainment. Travel and entertainment expenses increased $0.8 million, or 25.7%, primarily due to increased travel in the normal course of business as a result of our expanded operations.

•

Other. Other noninterest expense includes loan-related expenses, software amortization, training and recruiting, postage, insurance, business travel and subscription services. Other noninterest expense increased $5.1 million, or 40.3%. Loan related expense increased $0.9 million, bank service charges increased $0.6 million, debit and credit card expense increased $0.7 million and software amortization expense increased $0.7 million primarily due to increased operations resulting from the FBD, SCC, and ICC acquisitions as well as organic growth in the business.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense increased $1.5 million, or 14.9%, from $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $11.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in income tax expense period over period is consistent with the increase in pre-tax income for the same periods. The effective tax rate was 22% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 23% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Our Banking segment’s operating income decreased $0.7 million, or 2.3%.

Interest income increased primarily as a result of increases in the balances of our interest earning assets, primarily loans, due to the growth of our commercial finance products and general commercial loans. In addition, we acquired a combined $287.8 million of loans and $270.7 million of investment securities in our Banking segment as part of the FBD and SCC acquisitions which closed during the last month of the third quarter of 2018. Average loans in our Banking segment increased 25.9% from $2.901 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $3.653 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Interest expense increased primarily as a result of higher rates and growth in average customer deposits and other borrowings due to $674.7 million of customer deposits assumed in the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Excluding the acquired customer deposits, we also experienced growth in our certificates of deposit and brokered deposits as these higher cost deposit products were used to fund our growth period over period. We decreased our use of other interest bearing borrowings, consisting primarily of FHLB advances, period over period however, the decrease in the average balance was more than offset by an increase in the average rate.

The decrease in provision for loan losses was the result of decreased net charge-offs, more stable reserve rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018, and decreased net new specific reserves. Net charge-offs decreased $3.1 million from $4.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $1.8 for the same period of 2019. Approximately $0.6 million and $1.2 million of the Banking segment charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, had specific reserves previously recorded. Charge-offs were elevated during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, due to a $4.0 million charge-off on a single asset based lending relationship discussed in the Provision section above. The charge-off resulted in an increase in the estimated rate of the allowance for loan loss reserves recorded against the remaining asset based lending portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Net new specific reserves at our Banking segment decreased $1.0 million from $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $0.8 million for the same period of 2019. Additionally, loans in our Banking segment grew at a faster pace for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 which, when combined with changes in the mix of our portfolio and loss factors used partially offset the decrease in our provision for loan losses in the current period.

Noninterest income at our Banking segment increased primarily due to additional service charges, fee income and card income associated with the increase in customer deposit and credit/debit card accounts acquired in the FBD and SCC acquisitions. Included in other non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is a $0.4 million gain related to an interest in the sale of a property owned by a borrower. The increase in noninterest income period over period was partially offset by a $1.1 million pre-tax gain on the sale of THF during the first quarter of 2018.

Our Factoring segment’s operating income increased $9.9 million, or 55.8%.

Our average invoice size decreased 7.6% from $1,773 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $1,638 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019; however, the number of invoices purchased increased 26.8% period over period.

Net interest income increased due to an 18.3% increase in overall average net funds employed during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The increase in NFE was the result of a full year to date impact of the ICC acquisition as well as organic growth in the factored receivables portfolio. However, the Company believes this growth was offset in part by a decrease in transportation demand during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to a combination of macroeconomic factors that caused record demand in the transportation sector in 2018. Demand appears to have settled into a more traditional pattern throughout 2019. These macroeconomic factors influenced invoice prices and utilization, both of which impact NFE and period end balances in our factoring portfolio. Prior to 2019, intersegment interest was calculated based on the Company’s prime rate. Beginning in 2019, intersegment interest expense is allocated to the Factoring segment based on lower Federal Home Loan Bank advance rates which also contributed to the increase in net interest income. In addition to increased purchases, yield on average net funds employed increased period over period as a result of higher yielding clients in the ICC book, and to a lesser extent more balances on which fees are charged on days outstanding. Our transportation factoring balances, which typically generate a higher yield than our non-transportation factoring balances, as a percentage of the overall Factoring segment portfolio were flat at 83% during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

The decrease in provision for loan losses was primarily the result of lower growth in the ending balance of the factored receivables portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The ending balance of the factored receivables portfolio at our Factoring segment contracted $26.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to ending balance growth of $233.7 million over the same time period in 2018 driven by the acquisition of ICC. We experienced higher total net charge-offs of $1.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $0.8 million for the same period in 2018 however, reserves on current period charge-offs were fully established in a prior period while $0.5 million of reserves were established on the 2019 charge-offs. The decrease in provision for loan losses was partially offset by increased net new allowances on specific at-risk balances at our Factoring segment of $2.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to an increase of $1.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

The increase in noninterest expense was driven primarily by increased personnel, operating and technology costs incurred in connection with a full year to date impact of the ICC acquisition and growth in our factoring portfolio, particularly the increase in the number of clients and number of invoices processed period over period. Reflected in our Factoring segment’s noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 is $1.1 million in transaction costs related to the ICC acquisition. The increase in noninterest income was also the result of continued growth in the client portfolio.

The Corporate segment reported an operating loss of $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to an operating loss of $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 The decrease in operating loss was primarily driven by $1.3 million of FBD and SCC-related transaction costs recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 with no comparable costs recorded during the corresponding period of 2019. There were no other significant fluctuations in accounts in our Corporate segment period over period.

Commercial Real Estate Loans. Our commercial real estate loans increased $123.5 million, or 12.4%, due to new loan origination activity offset by paydowns for the period.

Construction and Development Loans. Our construction and development loans decreased $15.4 million, or 8.6%, due to paydowns and conversion of certain construction and development loans to commercial real estate loans at construction completion. The decrease was slightly offset by origination activity during the period.

Residential Real Estate Loans. Our one-to-four family residential loans decreased $3.8 million, or 2.0%, due primarily to paydowns that were offset by modest origination activity.

Farmland Loans. Our farmland loans decreased $9.1 million, or 5.3%, due to paydowns for the period that outpaced new loan origination activity.

Commercial Loans. Our commercial loans held for investment increased $254.5 million, or 22.8%, due to significant organic growth in all lines of commercial lending with the exception of agriculture lending which was relatively flat period over period. Our other commercial lending products, comprised primarily of general commercial loans originated in our community banking markets, increased $78.2 million, or 23.5% as a result of organic growth in the portfolio.

Factored Receivables. Our factored receivables decreased $18.1 million, or 2.9%. See discussion of our factoring subsidiary in the Operating Segment Results for analysis of the key drivers impacting the change in the ending factored receivables balance during the period.

Consumer Loans. Our consumer loans decreased $4.9 million, or 16.3%, due to paydowns in excess of new loan origination activity during the period.

Mortgage Warehouse. Our mortgage warehouse facilities increased $274.0 million, or 87.4%, due to higher utilization by our clients driven by typical seasonality associated with the mortgage business during the period. Client utilization of mortgage warehouse facilities may experience significant fluctuation on a day-to-day basis given mortgage origination market conditions. Our average mortgage warehouse lending balance was $417.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $289.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and $317.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $238.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

As of September 30, 2019, most of the Company’s non-factoring business activity is with customers located within certain states. The states of Colorado (23%), Texas (27%), Illinois (14%), and Iowa (7%) make up 71% of the Company’s gross loans, excluding factored receivables. Therefore, the Company’s exposure to credit risk is affected by changes in the economies in these states. At December 31, 2018, the states of Colorado (27%), Texas (24%), Illinois (15%) and Iowa (7%) made up 73% of the Company’s gross loans, excluding factored receivables.

Further, a majority (79%) of our factored receivables, representing approximately 11% of our total loan portfolio as of September 30, 2019, are receivables purchased from trucking fleets, owner-operators, and freight brokers in the transportation industry. Although such concentration may cause our future interest income with respect to our factoring operations to be correlated with demand for the transportation industry in the United States generally, and small-to-mid-sized operators in such industry specifically, we feel that the credit risk with respect to our outstanding portfolio is appropriately mitigated as we limit the amount of receivables acquired from individual debtors and creditors thereby achieving diversification across a number of companies and industries. At December 31, 2018, 79% of our factored receivables, representing approximately 14% of our total loan portfolio, were receivables purchased from trucking fleets, owner-operators, and freight brokers in the transportation industry.

Nonperforming Assets

We have established procedures to assist us in maintaining the overall quality of our loan portfolio. In addition, we have adopted underwriting guidelines to be followed by our lending officers and require senior management review of proposed extensions of credit exceeding certain thresholds. When delinquencies exist, we monitor them for any negative or adverse trends. Our loan review procedures include approval of lending policies and underwriting guidelines by the board of directors of our bank subsidiary, independent loan review, approval of large credit relationships by our bank subsidiary’s Management Loan Committee and loan quality documentation procedures. We, like other financial institutions, are subject to the risk that our loan portfolio will be subject to increasing pressures from deteriorating borrower credit due to general economic conditions.

The following table sets forth the allocation of our nonperforming assets among our different asset categories as of the dates indicated. We classify nonperforming assets as nonaccrual loans, loans modified under restructurings as a result of the borrower experiencing financial difficulties (“TDR”), factored receivables greater than 90 days past due, OREO, and other repossessed assets. The balances of nonperforming loans reflect the recorded investment in these assets, including deductions for purchase discounts.

Nonperforming loans, including nonaccrual PCI loans, increased $6.1 million, or 17.1%, primarily due to the additions of three commercial real estate loan relationships totaling $5.6 million, a $3.5 million farmland relationship, a $2.1 million commercial lending relationship secured by equipment and real estate and a $1.5 million equipment lending relationship to nonaccrual during the period. Additionally, a $1.8 million factored receivable relationship that was current at December 31, 2018 was greater than 90 days past due at September 30, 2019. These increases in nonperforming loans were partially offset by the removal of a $3.6 million nonaccrual asset based lending loan that was paid in full during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and a $1.7 million real estate construction loan that was also paid in full over the same time period. Also offsetting the increase in nonperforming loans is a partial paydown of $3.3 million as part of a troubled debt restructuring on a commercial loan relationship. The restructured loan relationship has a remaining book balance of $1.9 million and carries a 90% government guarantee. The remaining activity in nonperforming loans was also impacted by additions and removals of smaller credits to and from nonperforming loans.

OREO increased $0.8 million, or 38.3%, due to the addition of individually insignificant OREO properties as well as valuation adjustments made throughout the period.

As a result of the above activity and growth in our total assets and total loans held for investment, the ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans held for investment remained flat at 1.00% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and our ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets increased to 0.91% at September 30, 2019 compared to 0.84% at December 31, 2018.

Past due loans to total loans held for investment increased to 2.47% at September 30, 2019 compared to 2.41% at December 31, 2018, primarily as a result of above activity and growth in our total loans.

Potential problem loans consist of loans that are performing in accordance with contractual terms but for which management has concerns about the ability of an obligor to continue to comply with repayment terms because of the obligor’s potential operating or financial difficulties. Management monitors these loans and reviews their performance on a regular basis. Potential problem loans contain potential weaknesses that could improve, persist or further deteriorate. At September 30, 2019, we had $26.7 million in loans of this type which are not included in any of the nonperforming loan categories.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

ALLL is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the ALLL when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the ALLL. Management estimates the ALLL balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the ALLL may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off.

In addition, the product types associated with fluctuations within the loan portfolio also contribute to the allowance allocation, as different loan products require different levels of ALLL based upon their credit risk characteristics. Loan loss valuation allowances are recorded on specific at-risk balances, typically consisting of impaired loans and factored invoices greater than 90 days past due with negative cash reserves.

Under accounting standards for business combinations, acquired loans are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition. This fair value adjustment eliminates any of the seller’s ALLL associated with such loans as of the purchase date as any credit exposure associated with such loans is incorporated into the fair value adjustment. A provision for loan losses is recorded for the emergence of new incurred and estimable losses on acquired loans after the acquisition date in excess of the recorded discount.

The following table sets forth the ALLL by category of loan:

	September 30, 2019								December 31, 2018

The ALLL increased $4.3 million, or 15.7%, which was driven by $3.2 million of net charge-offs (which carried a reserve of $2.2 million at the time of charge-off), $3.5 million of net new specific allowances recorded on impaired loans and growth in the underlying portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The change in the ALLL during the period was also impacted by changes in the mix of our loan portfolio as well as changes to loss factors.

The following table presents the unpaid principal and recorded investment for loans at September 30, 2019. The difference between the unpaid principal balance and recorded investment is principally (1) premiums and discounts associated with acquisition date fair value adjustments on acquired loans (both PCI and non-PCI) totaling $15.8 million at September 30, 2019, and (2) net deferred origination costs and fees totaling $2.3 million at September 30, 2019. The net difference can provide protection from credit loss in addition to the ALLL as future potential charge-offs for an individual loan is limited to the recorded investment plus unpaid accrued interest.

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had on deposit $57.9 million and $58.6 million, respectively, of customer reserves associated with factored receivables. These deposits represent customer reserves held to settle any payment disputes or collection shortfalls, may be used to pay customers’ obligations to various third parties as directed by the customer, are periodically released to or withdrawn by customers, and are reported as deposits on our consolidated balance sheets.

Quarter to date net loans charged off decreased $3.7 million primarily due to a $4.0 million charge-off on a single asset based lending relationship during the three months ended September 30, 2018. Refer to the Provision for Loan Losses discussion for further details regarding the charge-off. Remaining charge-off and recovery activity during the periods was insignificant individually and in the aggregate.

Year to date net loans charged off decreased $2.5 million, or 43.7%, primarily due to primarily due to the aforementioned $4.0 million charge-off on a single asset based lending relationship during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Remaining charge-off and recovery activity during the periods was insignificant individually and in the aggregate.

Securities

As of September 30, 2019, we held equity securities with a fair value of $5.5 million, an increase of $0.5 million from $5.0 million at December 31, 2018. These securities represent investments in a publicly traded Community Reinvestment Act mutual fund and are subject to market pricing volatility, with changes in fair value reflected in earnings.

As of September 30, 2019, we held debt securities classified as available for sale with a fair value of $302.9 million, a decrease of $33.5 million from $336.4 million at December 31, 2018. The decrease is attributable to the sale of lower yielding state and municipal securities which were replaced by higher yielding CLO securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Remaining activity in our available for sale debt security portfolio during the period was not significant. Our available for sale securities can be used for pledging to secure FHLB borrowings and public deposits, or can be sold to meet liquidity needs.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we held investments classified as held to maturity with an amortized cost of $8.5 million. These held to maturity securities represent a minority investment in the unrated subordinated notes of issued CLOs managed by Trinitas Capital Management.

Our total deposits increased $247.5 million, or 7.2%, primarily due to growth in certificates of deposit and noninterest bearing demand deposits. The growth in these products was partially offset by decreases in several other deposit products during the period. As of September 30, 2019, interest bearing demand deposits, noninterest bearing deposits, money market deposits and savings deposits accounted for 57% of our total deposits, while individual retirement accounts, certificates of deposit, and brokered deposits made up 43% of total deposits.

Our FHLB advances are collateralized by assets, including a blanket pledge of certain loans. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $619.2 million and $516.4 million, respectively, in unused and available advances from the FHLB.

Subordinated Notes

On September 30, 2016, we issued $50.0 million of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”). The Notes initially bear interest at 6.50% per annum, are payable semi-annually in arrears, to, but excluding, September 30, 2021, and, thereafter and to, but excluding, the maturity date or earlier redemption, interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears, at an annual floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR as determined for the applicable quarterly period, plus 5.345%. We may, at our option, beginning on September 30, 2021 and on any scheduled interest payment date thereafter, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

The Notes are included on our consolidated balance sheet as liabilities; however, for regulatory purposes, the carrying value of these obligations is eligible for inclusion in Tier 2 regulatory capital.

Issuance costs related to the Notes totaled $1.3 million, including an underwriting discount of 1.5%, or $0.8 million, and have been netted against the subordinated notes liability on the consolidated balance sheets. The underwriting discount and other debt issuance costs are being amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the Notes as a component of interest expense. The carrying value of the Notes totaled $49.0 million at September 30, 2019.

Junior Subordinated Debentures

The following provides a summary of our junior subordinated debentures as of September 30, 2019:

(Dollars in thousands)	Face Value		Carrying Value		Maturity Date	Interest Rate
National Bancshares Capital Trust II	$	15,464	$	13,064	September 2033	LIBOR + 3.00%
National Bancshares Capital Trust III		17,526		12,722	July 2036	LIBOR + 1.64%
ColoEast Capital Trust I		5,155		3,526	September 2035	LIBOR + 1.60%
ColoEast Capital Trust II		6,700		4,608	March 2037	LIBOR + 1.79%
Valley Bancorp Statutory Trust I		3,093		2,864	September 2032	LIBOR + 3.40%
Valley Bancorp Statutory Trust II		3,093		2,659	July 2034	LIBOR + 2.75%
	$	51,031	$	39,443

These debentures are unsecured obligations and were issued to trusts that are unconsolidated subsidiaries. The trusts in turn issued trust preferred securities with identical payment terms to unrelated investors. The debentures may be called by the Company at par plus any accrued but unpaid interest; however, we have no current plans to redeem them prior to maturity. Interest on the debentures is calculated quarterly, based on a contractual rate equal to three month LIBOR plus a weighted average spread of 2.24%. As part of the purchase accounting adjustments made with the National Bancshares, Inc. acquisition on October 15, 2013, the ColoEast acquisition on August 1, 2016, and the Valley acquisition on December 9, 2017, we adjusted the carrying value of the junior subordinated debentures to fair value as of the respective acquisition dates. The discounts on the debentures will continue to be amortized through maturity and recognized as a component of interest expense.

The debentures are included on our consolidated balance sheet as liabilities; however, for regulatory purposes, these obligations are eligible for inclusion in regulatory capital, subject to certain limitations. All of the carrying value of $39.4 million was allowed in the calculation of Tier I capital as of September 30, 2019.

Capital Resources and Liquidity Management

Capital Resources

Our stockholders’ equity totaled $633.7 million as of September 30, 2019, compared to $636.6 million as of December 31, 2018, a decrease of $2.9 million. Stockholders’ equity decreased during this period primarily due to 1,688,234 shares of common stock repurchased into treasury stock during the period under our stock repurchase programs at an average price of $29.56, for a total of $49.9 million, offset in part by net income for the period of $41.8 million.

Liquidity Management

We define liquidity as our ability to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand, deposit withdrawals, or other cash demands and disbursement needs, and otherwise to operate on an ongoing basis.

We manage liquidity at the holding company level as well as that of our bank subsidiary. The management of liquidity at both levels is critical, because the holding company and our bank subsidiary have different funding needs and sources, and each is subject to regulatory guidelines and requirements which require minimum levels of liquidity. We believe that our liquidity ratios meet or exceed those guidelines and that our present position is adequate to meet our current and future liquidity needs.

Our liquidity requirements are met primarily through cash flow from operations, receipt of pre-paid and maturing balances in our loan and investment portfolios, debt financing and increases in customer deposits. Our liquidity position is supported by management of liquid assets and liabilities and access to other sources of funds. Liquid assets include cash, interest earning deposits in banks, federal funds sold, securities available for sale and maturing or prepaying balances in our investment and loan portfolios. Liquid liabilities include core deposits, federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements and other borrowings. Other sources of funds include the sale of loans, brokered deposits, the issuance of additional collateralized borrowings such as FHLB advances, the issuance of debt securities and the issuance of common securities. For additional information regarding our operating, investing and financing cash flows, see the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows provided in our consolidated financial statements.

In addition to the liquidity provided by the sources described above, our subsidiary bank maintains correspondent relationships with other banks in order to sell loans or purchase overnight funds should additional liquidity be needed. As of September 30, 2019, TBK Bank had unsecured federal funds lines of credit with seven unaffiliated banks totaling $137.5 million, with no amounts advanced against those lines at that time.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

Our capital management consists of providing equity to support our current and future operations. We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s or TBK Bank’s financial statements. For further information regarding our regulatory capital requirements, see Note 11 – Regulatory Matters in the accompanying condensed notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and other commitments to make future payments as of September 30, 2019. The amount of the obligations presented in the table reflects principal amounts only and excludes the amount of interest we are obligated to pay. Also excluded from the table are a number of obligations to be settled in cash. These excluded items are reflected in our consolidated balance sheet and include deposits with no stated maturity, trade payables, and accrued interest payable.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, we enter into various transactions, which, in accordance with GAAP, are not included in our consolidated balance sheets. We enter into these transactions to meet the financing needs of our customers. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and standby and commercial letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. For further information, see Note 9 – Off-Balance Sheet Loan Commitments in the accompanying condensed notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our accounting policies are fundamental to understanding our management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition. We have identified certain significant accounting policies which involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in making certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. The significant accounting policy which we believe to be the most critical in preparing our consolidated financial statements is the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Since December 31, 2018, there have been no changes in critical accounting policies as further described under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Form 10-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying condensed notes to consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for details of recently issued accounting pronouncements and their expected impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking statements pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “would” and “outlook,” or the negative version of those words or other comparable of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

There are or will be important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements, including, but are not limited to, the following:

•

business and economic conditions generally and in the bank and non-bank financial services industries, nationally and within our local market areas;

•

our ability to mitigate our risk exposures;

•

our ability to maintain our historical earnings trends;

•

risks related to the integration of acquired businesses (including our acquisitions of First Bancorp of Durango, Inc., Southern Colorado Corp., and the operating assets of Interstate Capital Corporation and certain of its affiliates) and any future acquisitions;

•

our ability to successfully identify and address the risks associated with our recent, pending and possible future acquisitions, and the risks that our prior and planned future acquisitions make it more difficult for investors to evaluate our business, financial condition and results of operations, and impairs our ability to accurately forecast our future performance;

•

changes in management personnel;

•

interest rate risk;

•

concentration of our factoring services in the transportation industry;

•

credit risk associated with our loan portfolio;

•

lack of seasoning in our loan portfolio;

•

deteriorating asset quality and higher loan charge-offs;

•

time and effort necessary to resolve nonperforming assets;

•

inaccuracy of the assumptions and estimates we make in establishing reserves for probable loan losses and other estimates;

•

lack of liquidity;

•

fluctuations in the fair value and liquidity of the securities we hold for sale;

•

impairment of investment securities, goodwill, other intangible assets or deferred tax assets;

•

our risk management strategies;

•

environmental liability associated with our lending activities;

•

increased competition in the bank and non-bank financial services industries, nationally, regionally or locally, which may adversely affect pricing and terms;

•

the accuracy of our financial statements and related disclosures;

•

material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting;

•

system failures or failures to prevent breaches of our network security;

•

the institution and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings against us or to which we become subject;

•

changes in carry-forwards of net operating losses;

•

changes in federal tax law or policy;

•

the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes, including changes in banking, securities and tax laws and regulations, such as the Dodd-Frank Act and their application by our regulators;

•

governmental monetary and fiscal policies;

•

changes in the scope and cost of FDIC, insurance and other coverages;

•

failure to receive regulatory approval for future acquisitions; and

•

increases in our capital requirements.

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate.

Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Risk

The principal objective of our asset and liability management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk within the balance sheet and pursue a controlled assumption of interest rate risk while maximizing net income and preserving adequate levels of liquidity and capital. The board of directors of our subsidiary bank has oversight of our asset and liability management function, which is managed by our Chief Financial Officer. Our Chief Financial Officer meets with our senior executive management team regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to market interest rate changes, local and national market conditions and market interest rates. That group also reviews our liquidity, capital, deposit mix, loan mix and investment positions.

As a financial institution, our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities, and the fair value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which have a short term to maturity. Interest rate risk is the potential of economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair values.

We manage our exposure to interest rates primarily by structuring our balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. We do not typically enter into derivative contracts for the purpose of managing interest rate risk, but we may elect to do so in the future. Based upon the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.

We use an interest rate risk simulation model to test the interest rate sensitivity of net interest income and the balance sheet. Instantaneous parallel rate shift scenarios are modeled and utilized to evaluate risk and establish exposure limits for acceptable changes in projected net interest margin. These scenarios, known as rate shocks, simulate an instantaneous change in interest rates and use various assumptions, including, but not limited to, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, and reinvestment and replacement of asset and liability cash flows. We also analyze the economic value of equity as a secondary measure of interest rate risk. This is a complementary measure to net interest income where the calculated value is the result of the fair value of assets less the fair value of liabilities. The economic value of equity is a longer term view of interest rate risk because it measures the present value of all future cash flows. The impact of changes in interest rates on this calculation is analyzed for the risk to our future earnings and is used in conjunction with the analyses on net interest income.

The following table summarizes simulated change in net interest income versus unchanged rates as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:


	September 30, 2019						December 31, 2018
	Following 12 Months			Months 13-24			Following 12 Months			Months 13-24
+400 basis points		14.9	%		9.9	%		6.8	%		4.7	%
+300 basis points		11.1	%		7.2	%		5.0	%		3.4	%
+200 basis points		7.3	%		4.6	%		3.2	%		2.2	%
+100 basis points		3.4	%		1.9	%		1.4	%		0.9	%
Flat rates		0.0	%		0.0	%		0.0	%		0.0	%
-100 basis points		(4.4	%)		(4.7	%)		(2.4	%)		(2.1	%)

The following table presents the change in our economic value of equity as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, assuming immediate parallel shifts in interest rates:

	Economic Value of Equity at Risk (%)
	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018
+400 basis points		26.7	%		10.6	%
+300 basis points		22.1	%		9.8	%
+200 basis points		16.4	%		8.2	%
+100 basis points		9.1	%		3.7	%
Flat rates		0.0	%		0.0	%
-100 basis points		(12.2	%)		(5.2	%)

Many assumptions are used to calculate the impact of interest rate fluctuations. Actual results may be significantly different than our projections due to several factors, including the timing and frequency of rate changes, market conditions and the shape of the yield curve. The computations of interest rate risk shown above do not include actions that our management may undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates, and actual results may also differ due to any actions taken in response to the changing rates.

As part of our asset/liability management strategy, our management has emphasized the origination of shorter duration loans as well as variable rate loans to limit the negative exposure to a rate increase. We also desire to acquire deposit transaction accounts, particularly noninterest or low interest-bearing non-maturity deposit accounts, whose cost is less sensitive to changes in interest rates. We intend to focus our strategy on utilizing our deposit base and operating platform to increase these deposit transaction accounts.

ITEM 4

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply judgment in evaluating its controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time we are a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of our business. We are not presently party to any legal proceedings the resolution of which we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results of operation, cash flows or capital levels.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in the Company’s risk factors from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

The Company may repurchase these shares from time to time in open market transactions or through privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion. The amount, timing and nature of any share repurchases will be based on a variety of factors, including the trading price of the Company’s common stock, applicable securities laws restrictions, regulatory limitations and market and economic factors. This repurchase program is authorized for a period of up to one year and does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares. The repurchase program may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time, at the Company’s discretion.
