MERIDIAN CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1)    Basis of Presentation
The Corporation’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been included.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Amounts subject to significant estimates are items such as the allowance for loan losses, lending related commitments, the fair value of financial instruments, other-than-temporary impairments of investment securities, and the valuations of goodwill, intangible assets, and servicing assets.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021), subsequently filed quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K that update or provide information in addition to the information included in Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings, if any.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any other period.

(2)    Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period reduced by unearned ESOP Plan shares and treasury shares. Diluted earnings per common share takes into account the potential dilution computed pursuant to the treasury stock method that could occur if stock options were exercised and converted into common stock and if restricted stock awards were vested, and SERP plan liabilities were satisfied with common shares. The effects of stock options are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which the effect would be anti-dilutive.

Although the Corporation’s investment portfolio overall is in a net unrealized loss position at September 30, 2022, the temporary impairment in the above noted securities is primarily the result of changes in market interest rates subsequent to purchase and it is more likely than not that the Corporation will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery to satisfy liquidity needs, and therefore, no securities are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.
During the quarter-ended March 31, 2022, $27.7 million of municipal securities, previously classified as available-for-sale on the balance sheet, were transferred to the held-to-maturity portfolio at fair value. After transfer, $1.3 million of unrealized losses remain in accumulated other comprehensive income. No gain or loss was recognized as a result of the transfer.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, securities having a fair value of $76.5 million and $92.2 million, respectively, were specifically pledged as collateral for public funds, the FRB discount window program, FHLB borrowings and other purposes. The FHLB has a blanket lien on non-pledged, mortgage-related loans and securities as part of the Corporation’s borrowing agreement with the FHLB.

Fair Value Option for Residential Mortgage Real Estate Loans
Residential mortgage real estate loans that were originated by the Corporation and intended for sale in the secondary market to permanent investors, but were either repurchased or unsalable due to defect, and that the Corporation has the ability and intent to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are carried at fair value pursuant to the Corporation's election of the fair value option for these loans. The remaining loans, net of fees and costs are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of deferred fees or costs, since the original intent for these loans was to hold them until payoff or maturity.

Foreclosed and Repossessed Assets
At September 30, 2022, there were no consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties (included in loans, net of fees and costs on the Consolidated Balance Sheets) for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process.
Risks and Uncertainties
We have no particular credit concentration. Our commercial loans have been proactively managed in an effort to achieve a balanced portfolio with no unusual exposure to one industry. Additionally, most of our lending activity occurs within our primary market areas which are concentrated in southeastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland as well as other contiguous markets and represents a geographic concentration. Additionally, our loan portfolio is concentrated in commercial loans. Commercial loans are generally viewed as having more inherent risk of default than residential real estate loans or other consumer loans. Also, the commercial loan balance per borrower is typically larger than that for residential real estate loans and consumer loans, implying higher potential losses on an individual loan basis.

(5)    Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (the “Allowance”)
The Allowance is evaluated on at least a quarterly basis, as losses are estimated to be probable and incurred. The provision for loan and lease losses increase or decrease the ALLL, if deemed necessary. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the Allowance, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the Allowance.
The Allowance is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that are probable and estimable. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the Allowance is based on known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revisions as more information becomes available.

Loans and Leases by Credit Ratings
As part of the process of determining the Allowance to the different segments of the loan and lease portfolio, Management considers certain credit quality indicators. For the commercial mortgage, construction and commercial and industrial loan segments, periodic reviews of the individual loans are performed by Management. The results of these reviews are reflected in the risk grade assigned to each loan. These internally assigned grades are as follows:
•Pass – Loans considered to be satisfactory with no indications of deterioration.
•Special mention – Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves Management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
•Substandard – Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize
14
the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
•Doubtful – Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with 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. Loan balances classified as doubtful have been reduced by partial charge-offs and are carried at their net realizable values.
The following tables detail the carrying value of loans and leases by portfolio segment based on the credit quality indicators used to determine the allowance for loan and lease losses at the dates indicated:

Troubled Debt Restructuring
The restructuring of a loan is considered a TDR if both of the following conditions are met: (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, and (ii) the creditor has granted a concession. The most common concessions granted include one or more modifications to the terms of the debt, such as (a) a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the debt, (b) an extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, (c) a temporary period of interest-only payments, (d) a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or remaining term of the loan, and (e) for leases, a reduced lease payment. A less common concession granted is the forgiveness of a portion of the principal.
The determination of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties takes into account not only the current financial condition of the borrower, but also the potential financial condition of the borrower, were a concession not granted. The determination of whether a concession has been granted is very subjective in nature. For example, simply extending the term of a loan at its original interest rate or even at a higher interest rate could be interpreted as a concession unless the borrower could readily obtain similar credit terms from a different lender.

(6)    Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt
The Corporation’s short-term borrowings generally consist of federal funds purchased and short-term borrowings extended under agreements with the FHLB or other correspondent banks. The Corporation has two unsecured Federal funds borrowing facilities with correspondent banks: one of $24 million and one of $15 million. Federal funds purchased generally represent one-day borrowings. The Corporation had $0 in Federal funds purchased at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Corporation also has a facility with the Federal Reserve Bank discount window of $9.2 million. This facility is fully secured by investment securities. There were no borrowings under this at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Corporation had no long-term debt as of September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.
The FHLB has also issued $74.8 million of letters of credit to the Corporation for the benefit of the Corporation’s public deposit funds and loan customers. These letters of credit expire throughout the remainder of 2022.
The Corporation has a maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB of $529.0 million as of September 30, 2022 and $505.4 million as of December 31, 2021. All advances and letters of credit from the FHLB are secured by a blanket lien on non-pledged, mortgage-related loans and securities as part of the Corporation’s borrowing agreement with the FHLB.

(7)    Servicing Assets
The Corporation sells certain residential mortgage loans and the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans to third parties and retains servicing rights and receives servicing fees. All such transfers are accounted for as sales. When the Corporation sells a residential mortgage loan, it does not retain any portion of that loan and its continuing involvement in such transfers is limited to certain servicing responsibilities. While the Corporation may retain a portion of certain sold SBA loans, its continuing involvement in the portion of the loan that was sold is limited to certain servicing responsibilities. When the contractual servicing fees on loans sold with servicing retained are expected to be more than adequate compensation to a servicer for performing the servicing, a capitalized servicing asset is recognized.
Residential Mortgage Loans
The related MSR asset is amortized over the period of the estimated future net servicing life of the underlying assets. MSRs are evaluated quarterly for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to their amortized cost. Impairment is recognized on the income statement to the extent the fair value is less than the capitalized amount of the MSR. The Corporation serviced $1.0 billion of residential mortgage loans as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Corporation recognized servicing fee income of $643 thousand and $1.9 million compared to $562 thousand and $1.4 million, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

The Corporation uses assumptions and estimates in determining the fair value of MSRs. These assumptions include prepayment speeds and discount rates. The assumptions used in the valuation were based on input from buyers, brokers and other qualified personnel, as well as market knowledge. At September 30, 2022, the key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Corporation’s MSRs included a lifetime constant prepayment rate equal to 7.11% and a discount rate equal to 9.50%. At December 31, 2021, the key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Corporation’s MSRs included a lifetime constant prepayment rate equal to 7.23% and a discount rate equal to 9.00%. Due in part to market volatility as interest rates increased, the prepayment speed assumption has decreased from December 31, 2021 to September 30, 2022. As interest rates have started to increase and the number of mortgage refinancings have started to decline, model inputs have been adjusted to align the MSRs fair value with market conditions.

Also, in this table, the effect of an adverse variation in a articular assumption on the fair value of the MSRs is calculated without changing any other assumption; while in reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments), which may magnify or counteract the effect of the change.
SBA Loans
SBA loan servicing assets are amortized over the period of the estimated future net servicing life of the underlying assets. SBA loan servicing assets are evaluated quarterly for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to their amortized cost. Impairment is recognized on the income statement to the extent the fair value is less than the capitalized amount of the SBA loan servicing asset. The Corporation serviced $156.3 million and $115.1 million of SBA loans, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Corporation uses assumptions and estimates in determining the fair value of SBA loan servicing rights. These assumptions include prepayment speeds, discount rates, and other assumptions. The assumptions used in the valuation were based on input from buyers, brokers and other qualified personnel, as well as market knowledge. At September 30, 2022, the key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Corporation’s SBA loan servicing rights included a lifetime constant prepayment rate equal to 12.88% and a discount rate equal to 12.24%. At December 31, 2021, the key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Corporation’s SBA
19
loan servicing rights included a lifetime constant prepayment rate equal to 12.38% and a discount rate equal to 9.01%. The change in valuation allowance due to impairment, noted in the tables above, was largely due to the increased prepayment speed experienced in the current year periods and the rising interest rate environment.

Also, in this table, the effect of an adverse variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the SBA servicing rights is calculated without changing any other assumption; while in reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments), which may magnify or counteract the effect of the change.

(8)    Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
The Corporation uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities. The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Corporation’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.
The fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation techniques or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.
In accordance with this guidance, the Corporation groups its financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Valuation is based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The valuation may be based on 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 for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 – Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
20
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Securities
The fair value of securities available-for-sale (carried at fair value) and held to maturity (carried at amortized cost) are determined by matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.
Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
The fair value of loans held for sale is based on secondary market prices.
Mortgage Loans Held for Investment
The fair value of mortgage loans held for investment is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The fair values of forward commitments and interest rate swaps are based on market pricing and therefore are considered Level 2. Derivatives classified as Level 3 consist of interest rate lock commitments related to mortgage loan commitments. The determination of fair value includes assumptions related to the likelihood that a commitment will ultimately result in a closed loan, which is a significant unobservable assumption. A significant increase or decrease in the external market price would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

Below is management’s estimate of the fair value of all financial instruments, whether carried at cost or fair value on the Corporation’s balance sheet. The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Corporation since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Corporation’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the Corporation’s financial instruments:
22
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.
Loans Receivable
The fair value of loans receivable is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair value below is reflective of an exit price.
Servicing Assets
The Corporation estimates the fair value of mortgage servicing rights and SBA loan servicing rights using discounted cash flow models that calculate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model uses readily available prepayment speed assumptions for the interest rates of the portfolios serviced. These servicing rights are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy based upon management’s assessment of the inputs. The Corporation reviews the servicing rights portfolios on a quarterly basis for impairment.
Impaired Loans
Impaired loans are those in which the Corporation has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third‑party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. Non-real estate collateral may be valued 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. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted in accordance with the Allowance policy.
Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.
Deposit Liabilities
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
Short-Term Borrowings
The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.
Subordinated Debt
Fair values of junior subordinated debt are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on market rates currently offered on such debt with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity.
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
Off-balance sheet instruments are primarily comprised of loan commitments, which are generally priced at market at the time of funding. Fees on commitments to extend credit and stand-by letters of credit are deemed to be immaterial and these instruments are expected to be settled at face value or expire unused. It is impractical to assign any fair value to these instruments and as a result they are not included in the table below. Fair values assigned to the notional value of interest rate lock commitments and forward sale contracts are based on market quotes.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The fair value of forward commitments and interest rate swaps is based on market pricing and therefore are considered Level 2. Derivatives classified as Level 3 consist of interest rate lock commitments related to mortgage loan commitments. The determination of fair value includes assumptions related to the likelihood that a commitment will ultimately result in a closed loan, which is a significant unobservable assumption. A significant increase or decrease in the external market price would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

(9)    Derivative Financial Instruments
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Corporation is exposed to certain risk arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Corporation principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Corporation manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Corporation enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Corporation’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Corporation’s loan portfolio.
Mortgage Banking Derivatives
In connection with its mortgage banking activities, the Corporation enters into commitments to originate certain fixed rate residential mortgage loans for customers, also referred to as interest rate locks. In addition, the Corporation enters into forward commitments for the future sales or purchases of mortgage-backed securities to or from third-party counterparties to hedge the effect of changes in interest rates on the values of both the interest rate locks and mortgage loans held for sale. Forward sales commitments may also be in the form of commitments to sell individual mortgage loans or interest rate locks at a fixed price at a future date. The amount necessary to settle each interest rate lock is based on the price that secondary market investors would pay for loans with similar characteristics, including interest rate and term, as of the date fair value is measured. Interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments are recorded within other assets/liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, with changes in fair values during the period recorded within net change in the fair value of derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of income.
Customer Derivatives – Interest Rate Swaps
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Corporation provides to certain customers to swap a fixed rate product for a variable rate product, or vice versa. The Corporation executes interest rate derivatives with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate derivatives are simultaneously hedged by offsetting derivatives that the Corporation executes with a third party, such that the Corporation minimizes its net interest rate risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

(10)    Segments
ASC Topic 280 – Segment Reporting identifies operating segments as components of an enterprise which are evaluated regularly by the Corporation’s Chief Operating Decision Maker, our Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Corporation has applied the aggregation criterion set forth in this codification to the results of its operations.
Our Banking segment (“Bank”) consists of commercial and retail banking. The Banking segment generates interest income from its lending (including leasing) and investing activities and is dependent on the gathering of lower cost deposits from its branch network or borrowed funds from other sources for funding its loans, resulting in the generation of net interest income. The Banking segment also derives revenues from other sources including gains on the sale of available for sale investment securities, service charges on deposit accounts, cash sweep fees, overdraft fees, BOLI income, title insurance fees, and other less significant non-interest income.
Meridian Wealth (“Wealth”), a registered investment advisor and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, provides a comprehensive array of wealth management services and products and the trusted guidance to help its clients and our banking customers prepare for the future. The unit generates non-interest income through advisory fees.
Meridian’s mortgage banking segment (“Mortgage”) consists of 13 loan production offices throughout suburban Philadelphia and Maryland. The Mortgage segment originates 1 – 4 family residential mortgages and sells nearly all of its production to third party investors. The unit generates net interest income on the loans it originates and holds temporarily, then earns fee income (primarily gain on sales) at the time of the sale. The unit also recognizes income from document preparation fees, changes in portfolio pipeline fair values and related net hedging gains (losses).
The table below summarizes income and expenses, directly attributable to each business line, which have been included in the statement of operations. Total assets for each segment is also provided.

(11)    Leases
On January 1, 2022, the Corporation adopted ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), “Leases”, as further explained in Note 12, Recent Accounting Pronouncements. The Corporation’s operating leases consist of various retail branch locations and loan production offices. As of September 30, 2022, the Corporation’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 8 months to 13 years, including extension options that the Corporation is reasonably certain will be exercised.
The Corporation’s leases include fixed rental payments, and certain of our leases also include variable rental payments where lease payments may increase at pre-determined dates based on the change in the consumer price index. The Corporation’s lease agreements include gross leases as well as leases in which we make separate payments to the lessor for items such as the property taxes assessed on the property or a portion of the common area maintenance associated with the property. We have elected the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components for all of our building leases. The Corporation also elected to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases.
As of September 30, 2022 the Corporation’s ROU assets and related lease liabilities were $9.5 million and $9.4 million, respectively. These amounts are included within other assets and other liabilities, respectively.
The components of lease expense were as follows:

Total operating lease liabilities$9,363 
As of September 30, 2022, the weighted-average remaining lease term, including extension options that the Corporation is reasonably certain will be exercised for all operating leases is 6.33 years.
Because we generally do not have access to the rate implicit in the lease, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The weighted average discount rate associated with operating leases as of September 30, 2022 is 2.61%.
As of September 30, 2022, the Corporation had not entered into any material leases that have not yet commenced.

(12)    Recent Accounting Pronouncements
As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, the Corporation is permitted an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. We have elected to take advantage of this extended transition period, which means that the financial statements included herein, as well as financial statements that we file up to the date we lose this designation (December 31, 2022) will not be subject to all new or revised accounting standards generally applicable to public companies for the transition period. As a filer under the JOBS Act, we will implement new accounting standards subject to the effective dates required for non-public entities
Pronouncements Adopted in 2022:
FASB ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), “Leases”
Issued in February 2016, ASU 2016-02 revises the accounting related to lessee accounting. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize a lease ROU liability and a ROU asset for all leases. The new lease guidance also simplifies the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In June 2020, the FASB approved a delay for the implementation of the ASU. Accordingly, the amendments in this update are effective for the Corporation for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. On January 1, 2022 the Corporation recognized a right-of-use asset and a lease obligation liability on the consolidated statement of financial condition. The adoption of the ASU was on a prospective basis and therefore comparative prior periods are still presented under ASC 840. Refer to footnote 11 - leases, for further details.

Pronouncements Not Yet Effective as of September 30, 2022:
FASB ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326), “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”
Issued in June 2016, ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how companies measure and recognize credit impairment for many financial assets. This ASU requires businesses and other organizations to measure the current expected credit losses on financial assets, such as loans, net investments in leases, certain debt securities, bond insurance and other receivables. The amendments affect entities holding financial assets and net investments in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. Current GAAP requires an incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The amendments in this ASU replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonableness and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. An entity should apply the amendments through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (modified retrospective approach). Acquired credit impaired loans for which the guidance in ASC Topic 310-30 has been previously applied should prospectively apply the guidance in this ASU. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized before the effective date. In October 2019, the FASB approved a delay for the implementation of the ASU. Accordingly, as an emerging growth company, the Corporation’s effective date for the implementation of the ASU will be January 1, 2023. The Corporation expects to recognize a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to the allowance for credit losses as of the date of adoption. While the Corporation anticipates the allowance for credit losses will increase under current model assumptions, it expects the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13 will be influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of its loan and investment securities portfolios, as well as general economic conditions and
28
forecasts at the date of adoption. Management is currently running parallel tests under different methods and using various assumptions to determine the best approach for when we adopt this ASU, and has engaged a third party vendor to perform a model validation prior to adoption.
FASB ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments”
Issued in April 2019, ASU 2019-04 clarifies certain aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments (addressed by ASUs 2016-13, 2017-12, and 2016-01, respectively). The amendments to estimating expected credit losses (ASU 2016-13), in particular, how a company considers recoveries and extension options when estimating expected credit losses, are the most relevant to the Corporation. The ASU clarifies that (1) the estimate of expected credit losses should include expected recoveries of financial assets, including recoveries of amounts expected to be written off and those previously written off, and (2) that contractual extension or renewal options that are not unconditionally cancellable by the lender are considered when determining the contractual term over which expected credit losses are measured. Management is considering the impact of ASU 2019-04 while considering the impact of ASU 2016-13 as discussed above.
FASB ASU 2020-04 (Topic 848), “Reference Rate Reform (“ASC 848”): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”
Issued in March 2020, ASU 2020-04 contains optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The Corporation does not have a significant concentration of loans, derivative contracts, borrowings or other financial instruments with attributes that are either directly or indirectly dependent on LIBOR. The guidance under ASC-848 will be available for a limited time, generally through December 31, 2022. The Corporation expects to adopt the LIBOR transition relief allowed under this standard.
FASB ASU 2020-06, “Debt With Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”
This ASU clarifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The amendments in this update reduce the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the cash conversion model and the beneficial conversion feature models. For public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer (excluding smaller reporting entities), the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2021, and interim periods within. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2023, and interim periods within. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than for fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2020. The Company does not expect this to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
FASB ASU 2022-02, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures."
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures." The amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted CECL and enhance the disclosure requirements for modifications of receivables made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases in the existing vintage disclosures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 or January 1, 2023 for the Corporation, including interim periods within those fiscal years for entities that have adopted CECL. Early adoption is permitted if an entity has adopted CECL. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the amendments but does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting policies are described in detail in the "Critical Accounting Policies" section within Item 7 of our 2021 Annual Form Form 10-K. The SEC defines "critical accounting policies" as those that require application of management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in future periods. There have been no material changes in these policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Executive Overview

30
•Non-interest income decreased $37.2 million, or 52.4%, to $33.7 million driven by a $40.9 million decrease in mortgage banking income and a $2.5 million decline in the fair value on loans held-for-investment, partially offset by an increase of $4.8 million in the fair value of derivatives and loans held-for-sale and a $2.5 million increase in net gains on hedging activity related to mortgage banking activity.
•Non-interest expense decreased $18.6 million, or 23.2% to $61.4 million as the result of a $20.2 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits tied to a decrease in variable compensation in our mortgage segment.

Net income is comprised of five major elements:
•Net Interest Income, or the difference between the interest income earned on loans, leases and investments and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds;
•Provision For Loan and Lease Losses, or the amount added to the Allowance to provide for estimated inherent losses on portfolio loans and leases;
•Non-interest Income, which is made up primarily of mortgage banking income, wealth management income, SBA loan sale income, fair value adjustments, gains and losses from the sale of loans, gains and losses from the sale of investment securities available for sale and other fees from loan and deposit services;
•Non-interest Expense, which consists primarily of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, professional fees, advertising & promotion, data processing, information technology, loan expenses, and other operating expenses; and
•Income Taxes, which include state and federal jurisdictions.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income is an integral source of the Corporation’s revenue. The tables below present a summary for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, of the Corporation’s average balances and yields earned on its interest-earning assets and the rates paid on its interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin is the net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The net interest spread is the difference between the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The difference between the net interest margin and the net interest spread is the result of net free funding sources such as non-interest bearing deposits and stockholders’ equity.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Same Period in 2021
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021, tax-equivalent interest income increased $4.7 million as favorable rate and volume changes contributed $2.7 million, and $1.9 million, respectively. The favorable change in rates was driven by increased yield on loans held for sale (up 205 basis points) and loans held for investment (up 57 basis points) that favorably impact interest income by $2.4 million, combined. The loans held for investment average balances increased $195.4 million, leading to a favorable volume impact on interest income of $2.5 million, while the decline in loans held for sale average balances of $73.0 million had an unfavorable impact to interest income of $727 thousand as shown in the table above. Within the loans held for investment portfolio, average balances on commercial loans and leases increased $33.6 million, and $54.0 million, respectively, construction loans were up $65.3 million, and residential real estate loans average balances increased $78.2 million, while the average balance of PPP loans decreased $132.4 million as such loans continue to be forgiven by the SBA.

On the funding side, interest expense increased $2.9 million due to the impact from rate hikes issued by the Fed, which were partially offset by volume declines on borrowings. The cost of deposits were up across the board, causing a $2.5 million increase to interest expense. The cost of interest-bearing demand deposits, money market and savings accounts and time deposits increased 114 basis points, 63 basis points and 86 basis points, respectively, while the cost of borrowings increased 210 basis points. Money market/savings accounts and time deposit average balances increased $71.7 million, and $124.4 million, respectively, while interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $49.1 million on average, and borrowings decreased $69.8 million on average.

Overall, the $1.8 million increase in net interest income was derived by volume changes as the impact from increased average earning assets and the $41.1 million in free funding outpaced the increase in average interest bearing liabilities.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Same Period in 2021
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021, tax-equivalent interest income increased $7.7 million as positive rate changes on average earning assets contributed $4.4 million and favorable volume changes helped to increase interest income by $3.3 million. The favorable change in interest income due to rate changes was driven by growth in the loans held for sale (increase of 122 basis points) and the overall loans held for investment portfolio (increase of 29 basis points). This large
34
increase in the yield on loans held for sale was the result of interest rates hovering at historical lows throughout much of 2021, but then as the Fed raised interest rates in 2022, the yield benefited from this action. The $3.3 million positive impact that volume changes had to interest income was largely the result of loan average balance increases, which contributed $5.2 million to interest income, offset by a decline in the volume of loans held or sale which had an unfavorable impact of $2.3 million on interest income. The increase in loans held for investment average balances were led by an increases in commercial loans, small business loans and leases of $30 million, $58.1 million, and $56.5 million, respectively, construction loans of $50.8 million, and residential loans held for investment of $47.3 million, offset somewhat by a $152.3 million decline in PPP loan balances as they continue to be forgiven by the SBA.

On the funding side, interest expense increased $2.9 million. The cost of deposits was up, having a $2.9 million negative effect on interest expense. The cost of interest-bearing demand deposits, money market and savings deposits, and time deposits increased 26 basis points, 21 basis points, and 30 basis points, respectively, while the cost of borrowings increased 170 basis points. Money market and savings accounts, and time deposits increased $93.5 million, and $61.8 million on average respectively, while interest bearing demand deposits and borrowings were down $9.2 million and $115.1 million on average, respectively, leading to a $70 thousand increase in interest expense.

Overall, the $4.8 million increase in net interest income was derived by volume changes as the impact from increased average earning assets and the $42.9 million in free funding outpaced the increase in average interest bearing liabilities.


PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Same Period in 2021
The provision for loan losses decreased $71 thousand due to decreases in specific reserves on non-performing loans as the underlying credit quality improved and certain qualitative factors improved as well, partially offset by providing for continued loan growth and charge-offs on small ticket equipment leases.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Same Period in 2021
The provision for loan losses increased $451 thousand to provide for the significant level of loan growth year over year, partially offset by the impact of decreases to specific reserves and qualitative factors noted above.

Asset Quality Summary
Meridian's credit culture is strong and asset quality remains a primary focus of management. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets declined to 1.20% as of September 30, 2022, from 1.34% as of December 31, 2021. There was no other real estate property included in non-performing assets for either period. Total non-performing loans were $23.1 million and $23.0 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, however subsequent to September 30, 2022, principal payments of $3.2 million and $307 thousand on a non-performing loan relationship were received.
Meridian realized net charge-offs of 0.10% of total average loans for the year ending September 30, 2022 which is higher than the 0.01% over the same period in 2021. Charge-offs amounted to $431 thousand for the quarter ending September 30, 2022, while recoveries were $74 thousand during this quarter. Nearly all of the charge-offs for the quarter ending September 30, 2022 were from small ticket equipment leases, while recoveries were split between commercial loans and home equity loans. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans held for investment, excluding loans at fair value and PPP loans (a non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation in the Appendix), was 1.20% as of September 30, 2022 and 1.46% as of December 31, 2021. As of September 30, 2022 there were specific reserves of $2.8 million against a non-performing loans, down from $3.2 million as of December 31, 2021 due to improvement in the underlying credit quality for certain loans, as discussed in the above paragraph.
The Corporation continues to be diligent in its credit underwriting process and proactive with its loan review process, including the engagement of the services of an independent outside loan review firm, which helps identify developing credit issues. Proactive steps that are taken include the procurement of additional collateral (preferably outside the current loan structure) whenever possible and frequent contact with the borrower. The Corporation believes that timely identification of credit issues and appropriate actions early in the process serve to mitigate overall risk of loss.

Other1,219 1,057 162 15.3 %
Total non-interest income$10,224 $22,122 $(11,898)(53.8)%
Total non-interest income decreased $11.9 million due primarily to lower income from our mortgage segment, which was impacted by lower levels of mortgage loan originations in a rising rate environment and a lack of housing inventory. Partially offsetting the impact of the decline in mortgage banking income were net changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and loans held-for-sale, along with an improvement in net gains on hedging activity which increased $2.3 million, combined.
SBA loan income decreased $1.7 million as a higher volume of SBA loans were sold into the secondary market in the prior year comparable quarter: $20.8 million of loans were sold in the quarter-ending September 30, 2022 compared to $25.0 million in loans sold in the quarter-ending September 30, 2021. Contributing to lower SBA loan income, margins on the SBA loan sales decreased from the prior year due to the upward movement in interest rates, which drove SBA loan prices down.
The net change in the fair value of loans held-for-investment decreased to a loss of $886 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to a gain of $37 thousand for the comparable prior year quarter, due to the negative impact the rising interest rate environment had on the fair value of the loans in portfolio that are held at fair value. Other non-interest income was up $162 thousand due to increases in title fee income, FHLB stock dividend income and broker fee income.

Total non-interest expense decreased largely attributable to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense at the mortgage segment, which recognized decreased and variable compensation. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase in salaries & benefits expense for the bank and wealth segments due to an increase in FTEs and a higher level of stock-based compensation expense year-over-year.
Advertising and promotion expense increased $545 thousand as the result of a renewed and focused priority placed on business development and community outreach efforts. Information technology expense increased $941 thousand due to cybersecurity improvements, cloud-based costs and other software upgrades, all as a result of growth.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $1.7 million, as compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease in income tax expense was attributable to the decrease in earnings, period over period. Our effective tax rate was 22.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 23.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $4.9 million, as compared to $8.5 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease in income tax expense was attributable to the decrease in earnings, period over period. Our effective tax rate was 22.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 23.5% for the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

While noninterest-bearing deposits increased $15.6 million over this period, the largest increase was in time deposits, $211.5 million, or 18.0%, largely from retail and wholesale time deposits due to more favorable interest rates.

Capital
Consolidated stockholders’ equity of the Corporation was $151.2 million, or 7.9% of total assets as of September 30, 2022, as compared to $165.4 million, or 9.7% of total assets as of December 31, 2021.
Period end numbers show a tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio (a non-GAAP measure) of 7.7% for the Corporation and 9.6% for the Bank. Tangible book value per share (a non-GAAP measure) was $25.16 as of September 30, 2022, compared with 26.37 as of December 31, 2021. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures is below.

Under the Community Bank Leverage Ratio framework, a community banking organization that is less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, and has limited amounts of certain assets and off-balance sheet exposures, and a CBLR greater than 9% can elect to report a single regulatory capital ratio. The Corporation has elected to be measured under this framework for Bank capital adequacy and had ratios of 10.52% and 11.51% at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Corporation is exempt from CBLR. The bank regulatory agencies temporarily lowered the CBLR to 8% as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Liquidity
Management maintains liquidity to meet depositors’ needs for funds, to satisfy or fund loan commitments, and for other operating purposes. Meridian’s foundation for liquidity is a stable and loyal customer deposit base, cash and cash equivalents, and a marketable investment portfolio that provides periodic cash flow through regular maturities and amortization or that can be used as collateral to secure funding. In addition, as part of its liquidity management, Meridian maintains a segment of commercial loan assets that are comprised of shared national credits (“SNCs”), which have a national market and can be sold in a timely manner. Meridian’s available liquidity, which totaled $264.7 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $263.6 million at December 31, 2021, includes investments, SNCs, Federal funds sold, mortgages held-for-sale and cash and cash equivalents, less the amount of securities required to be pledged for certain liabilities. Meridian also anticipates scheduled payments and prepayments on its loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios.
In addition, Meridian maintains borrowing arrangements with various correspondent banks, the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia to meet short-term liquidity needs. Through its relationship at the Federal Reserve, Meridian had available credit of approximately $9.2 million at September 30, 2022. At September 30, 2022, Meridian had no borrowings from the Federal Reserve. As a member of the FHLB, we are eligible to borrow up to a specific credit limit, which is determined by the amount of our residential mortgages, commercial mortgages and other loans that have been pledged as collateral. As of September 30, 2022, Meridian’s maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB was $529.2 million. At September 30, 2022, Meridian had borrowed $23.4 million and the FHLB had issued letters of credit, on Meridian’s behalf, totaling $74.8 million against its available credit lines. At September 30, 2022, Meridian also had available $39 million of unsecured federal funds lines of credit with other financial institutions as well as $214.7 million of available short or long term funding through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) program and $333.1 million of available short or long term funding through brokered CD arrangements. Management believes that Meridian has adequate resources to meet its short-term and long-term funding requirements.

Discussion of Segments
As of September 30, 2022, the Corporation has three principal segments as defined by FASB ASC 280, “Segment Reporting.” The segments are Banking, Mortgage Banking and Wealth Management (see Note 10 in the accompanying Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements).
The Banking Segment recorded income before tax of $7.5 million and $22.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to income before tax of $8.3 million and $23.5 million for the same periods in 2021. The Banking Segment provided 100.6% and 101.4% of the Corporation’s pre-tax profit for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022, as compared to 69.0% and 65.9% for the same period in 2021.
The Wealth Management Segment recorded income before tax of $552 thousand and $1.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to income before tax of $432 thousand and $796 thousand for the same periods in 2021. The increase in income in this segment came from an increase in customer based as the number of accounts grew 2.5% and 4.5%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
The Mortgage Banking Segment recorded a loss before tax of $603 thousand and a loss before tax of $2.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to income before tax of $3.6 million and $12.1 million for the same periods in 2021. Mortgage Banking income and expenses related to loan originations and sales decreased due to lower origination volume.

Off Balance Sheet Risk
The Corporation 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, standby letters of credit, and loan repurchase commitments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. Total commitments to extend credit at September 30, 2022 were $505.9 million as compared to $486.6 million at December 31, 2021.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation to a customer for a third party. Such standby letters of credit are issued to support private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is similar to that involved in granting loan facilities to customers. The Corporation’s obligation under standby letters of credit at September 30, 2022 amounted to $21.5 million as compared to $26.0 million at December 31, 2021.
Estimated fair values of the Corporation’s off-balance sheet instruments are based on fees and rates currently charged to enter into similar loan agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. Since fees and rates charged for off-balance sheet items are at market levels when set, there is no material difference between the stated amount and the estimated fair value of off-balance sheet instruments.
In certain circumstances the Corporation may be required to repurchase residential mortgage loans from investors under the terms of loan sale agreements. Generally, these circumstances include the breach of representations and warranties made to investors regarding borrower default or early payment, as well as a violation of the applicable federal, state, or local lending laws. The Corporation agrees to repurchase loans if the representations and warranties made with respect to such loans are breached. Based on the obligations described above, the Corporation repurchased one loan totaling $126 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and seven loans totaling $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and repurchased one loan in the amount of $115 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and four loans totaling $561 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Meridian believes that non-GAAP measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators and analysts to evaluate performance trends and the adequacy of common equity. This non-GAAP disclosure has limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for performance and financial condition measures determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Meridian’s results as reported under GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
Our management used the measure of the tangible common equity ratio to assess our capital strength. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because, by removing the impact of our goodwill and other intangible assets, it allows investors to more easily assess our capital adequacy. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for any regulatory capital ratios and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following is a reconciliation of the allowance for loan losses to total loans held for investment ratio at September 30, 2022. This is considered a non-GAAP measure as the calculation excludes the impact of loans held for investment that are fair valued and the impact of PPP loans as these loan types are not included in the allowance for loan losses calculation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Simulations of Net Interest Income
We use a simulation model on a quarterly basis to measure and evaluate potential changes in our net interest income resulting from various hypothetical interest rate scenarios. Our model incorporates various assumptions that management believes to be reasonable, but which may have a significant impact on results such as:
•The timing of changes in interest rates;
•Shifts or rotations in the yield curve;
•Repricing characteristics for market rate sensitive instruments on the balance sheet;
•Differing sensitivities of financial instruments due to differing underlying rate indices;
•Varying timing of loan prepayments for different interest rate scenarios;
•The effect of interest rate floors, periodic loan caps and lifetime loan caps;
•Overall growth rates and product mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Because of the limitations inherent in any approach used to measure interest rate risk, simulated results are not intended to be used as a forecast of the actual effect of a change in market interest rates on our results, but rather as a means to better plan and execute appropriate Asset / Liability Management (“ALM”) strategies.
Potential increase (decrease) to our net interest income between a flat interest rate scenario and hypothetical rising and declining interest rate scenarios, measured over a one-year period as of the dates indicated, are presented in the following table which assuming rate shifts occur upward and downward on the yield curve in even increments over the first twelve months (ramp) followed by rates held constant thereafter.
Nine Months Ended

No Change
-100 basis points over next 12 months(1.40)%(0.68)%
-200 basis points over next 12 months(3.19)%(3.03)%
The above interest rate simulation suggests that the Corporation’s balance sheet is asset sensitive as of September 30, 2022. In its current position, the table indicates that a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have a positive impact from rising rates on net interest income over the next 12 months as well as in a 200 and 300 basis point increase. The simulated exposure to a change in interest rates is contained, manageable and well within policy guidelines. The results continue to drive our funding strategy of increasing relationship-based accounts (core deposits) and utilizing term deposits to fund short to medium duration assets.
42
Simulation of economic value of equity
To quantify the amount of capital required to absorb potential losses in value of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities resulting from adverse market movements, we calculate economic value of equity on a quarterly basis. We define economic value of equity as the net present value of our balance sheet’s cash flow, and we calculate economic value of equity by discounting anticipated principal and interest cash flows under the prevailing and hypothetical interest rate environments. Potential changes to our economic value of equity between a flat rate scenario and hypothetical rising and declining rate scenarios are presented in the following table. The projections assume shifts upward and downward in the yield curve of 100, 200 and 300 basis points occurring immediately.
Changes in Market Interest RatesSeptember 30,
2022		September 30,
2021
+300 basis points 5 %62 %
+200 basis points6 %47 %
+100 basis points4 %28 %
No Change
-100 basis points(9)%(41)%
-200 basis points(25)%(103)%
This economic value of equity profile at September 30, 2022 suggests that we would experience a positive effect from an increase in rates, and that the impact would remain stable as rates continue to rise. Conversely, we would experience a negative effect from a decrease in rates. While an instantaneous shift in interest rates is used in this analysis to provide an estimate of exposure, we believe that a gradual shift in interest rates would have a much more modest impact. Since economic value of equity measures the discounted present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments, the change in economic value of equity does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon.
The results of our net interest income and economic value of equity simulation analysis are purely hypothetical, and a variety of factors might cause actual results to differ substantially from what is depicted. For example, if the timing and magnitude of interest rate changes differ from that projected, our net interest income might vary significantly. Non-parallel yield curve shifts or changes in interest rate spreads would also cause our net interest income to be different from that projected. An increasing interest rate environment could reduce projected net interest income if deposits and other short-term interest-bearing liabilities reprice faster than expected or faster than our interest-earning assets. Actual results could differ from those projected if we grow interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities faster or slower than estimated, or otherwise change its mix of products. Actual results could also differ from those projected if we experience substantially different repayment speeds in our loan portfolio than those assumed in the simulation model. Furthermore, the results do not take into account the impact of changes in loan prepayment rates on loan discount accretion. If prepayment rates were to increase on our loans, we would recognize any remaining loan discounts into interest income. This would result in a current period offset to declining net interest income caused by higher rate loans prepaying. Finally, these simulation results do not contemplate all the actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes to our loan, investment, deposit, funding or other strategies.
Finally, these simulation results do not contemplate all the actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes to our loan, investment, deposit, funding or other strategies.
Management has and continues to employ strategies to mitigate risk in the Net Interest Income and Economic Value simulations. Strategies include actively lowering deposit and funding rates, adding and maintaining interest rate floors on assets and lengthening liabilities in the low rate environment.
