Surges in illnesses, including but not limited to COVID-19 cases, may increase the risk of maintaining adequate staffing in our banking centers and other key areas. Our allowance for credit losses and fair value adjustments may prove to be insufficient to absorb losses inherent in our loan or other real estate owned (“OREO”) portfolio.

Additionally, a change in our accounting estimates, such as our ability to realize deferred tax assets, the need for a valuation allowance or the recoverability of the goodwill recorded at the time of our acquisitions, could have a material adverse effect on our financial results. Our business is highly susceptible to credit risk and fluctuations in the value of real estate and other collateral securing such credit. As a lender, we are exposed to the risk that our clients will be unable to repay their loans according to their terms and that the collateral securing the payment of their loans (if any) may not be sufficient to assure repayment.

Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations, even if the failure follows good faith effort or reflects a difference in interpretation, could subject us to restrictions on our business activities, fines and other penalties, any of which could materially and adversely affect us. We also anticipate increased regulatory scrutiny in the course of routine examinations and otherwise and any new regulations directed towards banks of similar size to the Banks, designed to address the recent negative developments in the banking industry, all of which may increase our costs of doing business and reduce our profitability.

However, as a lender, we are exposed to the risk that our clients will be unable to repay their loans according to their terms and that the collateral securing the payment of their loans (if any) may not be sufficient to assure repayment.
Removed
We may 25 Table of Contents incur debt in the future and that debt may also be sensitive to interest rates and any increase in interest rates could materially and adversely affect us.
Added
Our credit standards, procedures and policies may not prevent us from incurring substantial credit losses. ​ A significant portion of our loan portfolio is secured by real estate and any deterioration in real estate values or credit quality or elevated levels of non-performing assets would ultimately have a negative impact on the quality of our loan portfolio.
Removed
On June 30, 2023, LIBOR will cease to be published. Our internal working group began indexing new retail adjustable rate mortgages to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) in the third quarter of 2020 and are addressing LIBOR-based commercial loans, including adhering to the ISDA IBOR Fallbacks Protocol as needed.
Added
In addition, with heightened interest rates and inflationary pressures, our clients could be impacted by the rising costs of goods and services in their households and businesses, which may have a negative impact on their ability to repay their loans with us. 22 Table of Contents ​ We depend on our executive officers and key personnel to implement our strategy and could be harmed by the loss of their services. ​ The execution of our strategy depends in large part on the skills of our executive management team and our ability to motivate and retain these and other key personnel, including key personnel added through mergers and acquisitions.
Removed
We stopped originating LIBOR-based products in the fourth quarter of 2021 and are using substitute interest rates such as Prime and SOFR. While many of our client relationships still involve products based on LIBOR, we are working to correctly transition these products to substitute interest rates with as little impact to our clients as possible.
Added
These events could have a material adverse effect on the Company. ​ We provide our clients with the ability to bank remotely, including via online, mobile and phone.
Removed
While we believe we have prepared as much as possible for the transition from LIBOR, there can be no assurances that we and other market participants will be adequately prepared for an actual discontinuation of benchmarks, including LIBOR, that may have an unpredictable impact on contractual mechanics (including, but not limited to, interest rates to be paid to or by us), which may also result in adversely affecting our financial condition or results of operations.
Added
While we have also experienced losses due to apparent fraud or other crimes, thus far such losses have been relatively insignificant.
Removed
In addition, such transition may result in litigation with counterparties impacted by the transition as well as increased regulatory scrutiny and other adverse consequences. ​ We are highly dependent on the internet, cloud technologies and third-party providers.
Added
We may see increased rates of repurchase or indemnification demands or indemnification as a result of self-reporting of identified errors in our mortgage loan portfolio. For instance, as part of our normal review process, we discovered irregularities in mortgage loan applications in one of our offices that prompted an internal investigation.

Investments where we have the ability to exercise significant influence but not control over the operating and financial policies of the investee are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. For investments accounted for under the equity method, we increase or decrease our investment by our proportionate share of the investee’s net income or loss.
Added
Non-marketable securities also include direct investments in convertible preferred stock. As the convertible preferred stock does not have a readily determinable fair value, it is carried at cost. We periodically evaluate our non-marketable securities investments for impairment.
Added
The results of testing our investments for potential impairment may be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including market conditions, general economic conditions and unfavorable changes in the businesses underlying the investments, which may lead to a partial or full impairment of our fintech investments.
Added
Impairments or write-downs of these assets may result in charges that adversely affect our results of operations. ​ The financial technology companies in which we invest often have the need for substantial additional capital to support expansion or to achieve or maintain a competitive position.
Added
Less established companies tend to have lower capitalization and fewer resources and, therefore, are often more vulnerable to financial failure. These companies may be dependent upon the success of one product or service, a unique distribution channel, or the effectiveness of a manager or management team.
Added
The failure of this one product, service or distribution channel, or the loss or ineffectiveness of a key executive or executives within the management team may have a materially adverse impact on such companies. ​ The possibility that the companies in which we invest will not be able to commercialize their technology or product concept presents a risk that our investment may become impaired.
Added
These companies tend to lack management depth, to have limited or no history of operations and to not have attained profitability. Additionally, although some of these companies may already have a commercially successful product or product line at the time of investment, technology products and services often have a more limited market or life span than products in other industries.
Added
Thus, the ultimate success of these companies may depend on their ability to continually innovate in increasingly competitive markets. Most of the companies in which we invest will require substantial additional equity financing to satisfy their continuing growth and working capital requirements.
Added
Each round of venture financing is typically intended to provide a company with enough capital to reach the next stage of development. The circumstances or market conditions under which such companies will seek additional capital is unpredictable.
Added
It is possible that one or more of such companies will not be able to raise additional financing or may be able to do so only at a price or on terms which are unfavorable. ​ Risks Relating to our Growth Strategy ​ We may not be able to effectively manage our growth or other expansionary activity. ​ Our expansionary activity, whether through de novo branching, acquisitions (including Cambr), organic growth or the implementation of our digital banking strategy has placed, and may continue to place, significant demands on our operations and management.
Added
These risks include pending and future laws and regulations that may adversely impact our business, as well as supervisory and other actions that may be taken against us by our regulators.
Added
Among other things, there may be an increased focus by both regulators and investors on deposit composition and classification, the level of uninsured deposits, losses embedded in the held-to-maturity portion of our securities portfolio (if any), contingent liquidity, CRE composition and concentration, capital position and our general oversight and internal control structures regarding the foregoing.
Added
As a result, the Banks could face increased scrutiny or be viewed as higher risk by regulators and the investor community. ​ We will be subject to increased regulation once our total consolidated assets exceed $10 billion. ​ Federal law imposes heightened requirements on bank holding companies and depository institutions that exceed $10 billion in total consolidated assets.
Added
An insured depository institution with $10 billion or more in total assets is subject to supervision, examination, and enforcement with respect to consumer protection laws by the CFPB. Additionally, other regulatory requirements apply to insured depository institution holding companies and insured depository institutions with $10 billion or more in total consolidated assets, please refer to Item 1: Supervision and Regulation.
Added
Further, deposit insurance assessment rates are calculated differently, and may be higher, for insured depository institutions with $10 billion or more in total consolidated assets. ​ 33 Table of Contents Debit card interchange fee restrictions set forth in section 1075 of the Dodd-Frank Act, known as the Durbin Amendment, as implemented by regulations of the Federal Reserve, cap the maximum debit interchange fee that an issuer may receive per transaction.
Added
Debit card issuers with less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets are exempt from these interchange fee restrictions.
Added
The exemption for small issuers ceases to apply as of July 1 of the year following the calendar year in which the issuer’s total consolidated assets exceed $10 billion. ​ As of December 31, 2023, we had total assets of $9.9 billion.
Added
In 2024, our assets may exceed $10 billion at which time we will be subject to the heightened regulatory and financial impacts. We have incurred and will continue to incur additional costs to implement processes, procedures, and monitoring of compliance with these increased regulatory requirements.
Added
Any future additional assessments, increases or required prepayments in FDIC insurance premiums may materially and adversely affect us, including by reducing our profitability or limiting our ability to pursue certain business opportunities.
Added
The significant losses incurred by the Deposit Insurance Fund managed by the FDIC, in connection with recent developments are required by law to be recovered through one or more special assessments on depository institutions and, potentially, their holding companies.
