Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation

Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") conducts its business activities primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiary bank, Blue Ridge Bank, National Association (the "Bank") and its wealth and trust management subsidiary, BRB Financial Group, Inc. (the “Financial Group”). The Company exists primarily for the purposes of holding the stock of its subsidiaries, the Bank and the Financial Group.

The Company sold its majority interest in MoneyWise Payroll Solutions, Inc. (“MoneyWise”) to the holder of the minority interest in MoneyWise in the first quarter of 2022. Asset and liability balances and income statement amounts related to MoneyWise are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Bank and the Financial Group and were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to general practices within the banking industry. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In March 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved a three-for-two stock split (“Stock Split”) effected in the form of a 50 % stock dividend on the Company’s common stock outstanding paid on April 30, 2021 to shareholders of record as of April 20, 2021 . Cash was paid in lieu of fractional shares based on the closing price of common stock on the record date. References made to outstanding shares or per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and disclosures have been adjusted to reflect the Stock Split for all periods presented, unless otherwise noted.

On January 31, 2021, the Company completed a merger with Bay Banks of Virginia, Inc. (“Bay Banks”), a bank holding company conducting substantially all its operations through its bank subsidiary, Virginia Commonwealth Bank, and the Financial Group (formerly VCB Financial Group, Inc.). Immediately following the Company’s merger with Bay Banks, Bay Banks’ subsidiary bank was merged with and into the Bank, while the Financial Group became a subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the “Bay Banks Merger”). Information contained herein as of March 31, 2022 includes the balances of Bay Banks. Information for the periods in the year ended and as of December 31, 2021 includes the operations of Bay Banks only for the period immediately following the effective date of the Bay Banks Merger (January 31, 2021) through December 31, 2021.

On January 1, 2022, the Company changed its accounting method for mortgage servicing rights ("MSR") assets from the amortization method to the fair value measurement method under Accounting Standards Codification 860 Transfers and Servicing. This change in accounting method, which was an irrevocable election, was prospective in nature and resulted in an after-tax difference in carrying values of its MSR assets under the two methods at the beginning of the quarter. Consequently, a positive $ 3.5 million cumulative effect adjustment was recorded to stockholders’ equity as of January 1, 2022.

Certain amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations. The reclassifications had no effect on net income, net income per share, total assets, total liabilities, or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.

Note 2 – Amendments to the Accounting Standards Codification

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this ASU, among other things, require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. In addition, the ASU amends the

accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The Company will be required to apply the guidance for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has formed a cross-functional working group, supported by a third-party consultant, which is implementing the requirements of ASU 2016-13 by the adoption date.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This ASU addresses issues raised by stakeholders during the implementation of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. Among other narrow-scope improvements, the new ASU clarifies guidance around how to report expected recoveries. “Expected recoveries” describes a situation in which an organization recognizes a full or partial write-off of the amortized cost basis of a financial asset, but then later determines that the amount written off, or a portion of that amount, will in fact be recovered. While applying the credit losses standard, stakeholders questioned whether expected recoveries were permitted on assets that had already shown credit deterioration at the time of purchase (also known as purchased credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) assets). In response to this question, the ASU permits organizations to record expected recoveries on PCD assets. In addition to other narrow technical improvements, the ASU also reinforces existing guidance that prohibits organizations from recording negative allowances for available-for-sale debt securities. The ASU includes effective dates and transition requirements that vary depending on whether or not an entity has already adopted ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2019-11 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company reviews for other-than-temporary impairment of its investment securities portfolio at least quarterly. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, with the exception of one security, all securities in an unrealized loss position were of investment grade. In addition, the amount of unrealized loss for the security was not significant. Investment securities with unrealized losses are generally a result of pricing changes due to recent changes in the interest rate environment and not as a result of permanent credit impairment. Contractual cash flows for the mortgage-backed securities are guaranteed and/or funded by the U.S. government. Municipal securities show no indication that the contractual cash flows will not be received when due. The Company does not intend to sell nor does it believe that it will be required to sell any of its temporarily impaired securities prior to the recovery of the amortized cost.

Restricted equity investments consisted of stock in the FHLB (carrying value of $ 1.8 million and $ 1.7 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively), stock in the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond ("FRB") (carrying value of $ 6.1 million at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021), and stock in the Bank’s correspondent bank (carrying value of $ 468 thousand at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021). Restricted equity investments are carried at cost.

The Company also has various other equity investments, including shares in other financial institutions and fintech companies, totaling $ 23.9 million and $ 14.2 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which are carried at fair value with any gain or loss reported in the consolidated income statements each reporting period. As no actively-traded market exists for substantially all of the Company's other equity investments, fair value adjustments are determined by reviewing recent observable market transactions, such as stock or equity transactions, that are substantially similar to the Company's existing investments. Other equity investments are also periodically evaluated for impairment using information obtained either directly from the investee or from a third-party broker. If an impairment

has been identified, the carrying value of the investment is written down to its estimated fair market value through a charge to earnings. As of March 31, 2022, no impairment on other equity investments has been recorded.

The Company also holds investments in early-stage focused investment funds, small business investment companies ("SBIC"), and low-income housing partnerships, which are reported in other investments on the consolidated balance sheets.

The tables above exclude gross PPP loans of $ 22.9 million and $ 30.7 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government; therefore, the Company recorded no allowance for loan losses ("ALL") for these loans as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. In future periods, the Company may be required to establish an ALL for these loans, which would result in a provision for loan losses charged to earnings.

Impaired loans also include certain loans that have been modified in troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as non-performing at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months. The Company had nine TDRs totaling $ 673 thousand as of March 31, 2022 and eight TDRs totaling $ 688 thousand as of December 31, 2021.

No residential mortgage loans were in the process of foreclosure as of March 31, 2022.

Note 5 – Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 12 years. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company's goodwill totaled $ 26.8 million.

The following table presents information on amortizable intangible assets included on the consolidated balance sheets as of the dates stated.


	As of March 31, 2022
(Dollars in thousands)	Gross Carrying Value		Accumulated Amortization			Net Carrying Value
Core deposit intangibles	$	9,626	$	( 3,279	)	$	6,347

Total	$	12,581	$	( 5,126	)	$	7,455

	As of December 31, 2021
(Dollars in thousands)	Gross Carrying Value		Accumulated Amortization			Net Carrying Value
Core deposit intangibles	$	9,626	$	( 2,908	)	$	6,718
Other amortizable intangibles		2,659		( 1,783	)		876
Total	$	12,285	$	( 4,691	)	$	7,594

Included in other amortizable intangibles were loan servicing assets of $ 620 thousand and $ 362 thousand at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, related to the sale of the government guaranteed portion of certain loans that the Company continues to service. Loan servicing assets of $ 297 thousand and $ 266 thousand were added during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. The amortization of these intangibles is included in interest and fees on loans in the consolidated statement of income.

The Company retains servicing rights on mortgages originated and sold to the secondary market. Beginning January 1, 2022, the Company elected the fair value measurement method for accounting for MSR assets, pursuant to which assets are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value at each reporting period. Prior to this, MSR assets were recorded under the amortization method, which required that MSR assets be recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. As of March 31, 2022, the fair value of MSR assets was $ 27.7 million, and at December 31, 2021, the carrying value of MSR assets under the amortization method was $ 16.5 million.

Note 6 – Borrowings

FHLB Borrowings

The Bank has a lin e of credit from the FHLB secured by pledged qualifying real estate loans and certain pledged securities. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, based on pledged collateral, the line totaled $ 315.1 million and $ 358.1 million, respectively. The FHLB will lend up to 30 % of the Bank’s total assets as of the prior quarter end, subject to certain eligibility requirements, including adequate collateral. The Bank had borrowings from the FHLB that totaled $ 10.0 million at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The interest rate on the borrowing was 0.56 % and the maturity date is February 28, 2030 . FHLB borrowings required the Bank to hold $ 1.8 million and $ 1.7 million of FHLB stock at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which is included in restricted equity investments on the consolidated balance sheets. The Bank also has letters of credit with the FHLB in the amount of $ 85.0 million for the purpose of collateral for public deposits with the Treasury Board of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Outstanding letters of credit reduce the available balance of the borrowing facility with the FHLB, which was $ 220.1 million as of March 31, 2022.

FRB Borrowings

In the second quarter of 2020, the Company began participating in the FRB’s PPPLF, which allowed banks to pledge PPP loans as collateral in exchange for advances. The PPPLF advances are at 100 % of the PPP loan value and term, have a fixed annual cost of 35 basis points, and receive favorable regulatory capital treatment. As of March 31, 2022, FRB borrowings pursuant to the PPPLF were $ 15.2 million with maturities ranging from less than one year to over three years .

Other Borrowings

The Company had unsecured lines of credit with correspondent banks, which totaled $ 44.0 million at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. These lines bear interest at the prevailing rates for such loans and are cancellable any time by the correspondent bank. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, no ne of these lines of credit with correspondent banks were drawn upon.

The Company had $ 40.0 million of subordinated notes, net, outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company's subordinated notes are comprised of an issuance in October 2019 and maturing October 15, 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and an issuance in May 2020 and maturing June 1, 2030 (the "2030 Note". As of March 31, 2022, the net carrying amount of the 2029 Notes was $ 25.3 million, inclusive of a $ 830 thousand purchase accounting adjustment (premium) . For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the effective interest rate on the 2029 Notes was 5.1 % and 4.7 %, respectively, inclusive of the amortization of the purchase accounting adjustment (premium). As of March 31, 2022, the net carrying amount of the 2030 Note, including capitalized, unamortized debt issuance costs, was $ 14.7 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the effective interest rate on the 2030 Note was 6.1 %.

Note 7 – Derivatives

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to accommodate the needs of its banking customers. The Company mitigates the interest rate risk entering into these swap agreements by entering into equal and offsetting swap agreements with highly-rated third-party financial institutions. These back-to-back swap agreements are free-standing derivatives and are recorded at fair value in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets (asset positions are included in other assets and liability positions are included in other liabilities).

The following tables present the notional and fair value of interest rate swap agreements for the dates stated.

As part of its efforts to sell originated government guaranteed and conventional residential mortgages into the secondary market, the Bank had entered into $ 70.9 million and $ 64.8 million of rate lock commitments with borrowers, net of expected fallout, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and $ 38.4 million and $ 113.6 million of closed loan inventory waiting for sale, which were hedged by $ 95.5 million and $ 169.5 million in forward to-be-announced mortgage-backed securities as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Mortgage derivative assets totaled $ 2.1 million and $ 1.9 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and mortgage derivative liabilities, which are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, were $ 0 and $ 75 thousand as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Note 8 – Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has granted restricted stock awards ("RSAs") to employees and directors under the Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan. RSAs are considered fixed awards as the number of shares and fair value is known at the date of grant, and the fair value of the award at the grant date is amortized over the requisite service period, which is generally three years. Compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of operations related to RSAs, net of forfeitures, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $ 355 thousand and $ 167 thousand, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense related to the restricted stock awards as of March 31, 2022 totaled $ 2.1 million .

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, 1,183 stock options were exercised resulting in 56,424 options outstanding as of March 31, 2022. These options were assumed by the Company in connection with the Bay Banks Merger.

Note 9 – Leases

The Company’s long-term lease agreements are classified as operating leases. Certain of these leases offer the option to extend the lease term and such extensions are included in the calculation of the lease liabilities to the extent the options are reasonably assured of being exercised. The lease agreements do not provide for residual value guarantees and have no restrictions or covenants that would impact dividends or require incurring additional financial obligations.

Note 10 – Fair Value

The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on 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 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 Company records fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and determines fair value disclosures utilizing a definition of fair value of assets and liabilities that states that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Additional considerations are involved to determine the fair value of financial assets in markets that are not active.

The Company uses a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on these two types of inputs are as follows:


Level 1 –		Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 –		Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.
Level 3 –		Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements:

Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. The carrying value of restricted FRB and FHLB stock approximates fair value based upon the redemption provisions of each entity and is therefore excluded from the following table.

Mortgage servicing rights

A third-party model is used to determine the fair value of the Company’s MSR assets. The model establishes pools of performing loans, calculates projected future cash flows for each pool, and applies a discount rate to each pool. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company was servicing approximately $ 2.08 billion and $ 1.91 billion of loans, respectively. Loans are segregated into homogenous pools based on loan term, interest rates, and other similar characteristics. Cash flows are then estimated based on net servicing fee income and utilizing assumed servicing costs and prepayment speeds. The weighted average net servicing fee income of the portfolio was 28.3 basis points as of March 31, 2022. Estimated base annual servicing costs were $ 65.00 to $ 80.00 per loan depending on the guarantor. Prepayment speeds in the model are based on empirically derived data for mortgage pool factors and differences between a mortgage pool’s weighted average coupon and its current mortgage rate. The weighted average prepayment speed assumption used in the fair value model was 8.65 % as of March 31, 2022. A base discount rate of 8.5 % to 10.5 %

( 8.81 % weighted average discount rate) was then applied to each pool’s projected future cash flows as of March 31, 2022. The discount rate is intended to represent the estimated market yield for the highest quality grade of comparable servicing. MSR assets are classified as Level 3.

As previously noted, t he Company changed its accounting method for MSR assets from the amortization method to the fair value measurement method effective January 1, 2022. This was a prospective change in accounting method; therefore, the carrying value of the MSR assets in periods prior to January 1, 2022 are stated at amortized cost. Accordingly, the following table presents a reconciliation between the amortized cost and fair value of MSR assets as of and for the period stated.

Rabbi trust assets

The Company's rabbi trust is associated with a deferred compensation plan. The assets held by the rabbi trust are invested at the direction of the individual participants and are generally invested in marketable investment securities, such as common stocks and mutual funds or short-term investments (e.g., cash) (Level 1). Rabbi trust assets and the associated deferred compensation plan liability are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets.

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative instruments used to hedge residential mortgage loans held for sale and the related interest rate lock commitments include forward commitments to sell mortgage loans and are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The fair values of derivative financial instruments are based on derivative market data inputs as of the valuation date and the underlying value of mortgage loans for rate lock commitments.

The Company has interest rate swap assets and liabilities associated with certain customer commercial loans. The interest rate swap asset with the customer is offset with an equal swap agreement with a highly-rated third-party financial institution (i.e., "back-to-back"). Both the interest rate swap assets and liabilities are free-standing derivatives and are recorded at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs.

The following tables present the balances of financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the dates stated.

As of March 31, 2022, 13 corporate bonds totaling $ 8.1 million and 6 mortgage backed securities totaling $ 7.8 million were reported at their respective purchase prices and as Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy as there were no observable market prices for similar investments.

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or the write-down of individual assets.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.

Impaired Loans

Impaired loans with specific reserves are carried at fair value. Fair value is based on the discounted cash flows of the loan or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell, if the loan is collateral-dependent. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. Any given loan may have multiple types of collateral; however, the majority of the Company’s loan collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is generally determined utilizing a market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral value is significantly adjusted due to differences in the comparable properties or is discounted by the Company because of lack of marketability, then the fair value is considered Level 3. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant or the net book value on the applicable business’s financial statements if not considered significant. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the consolidated statements of operations.

As of March 31, 2022, one impaired loan was evaluated using an Enterprise Value ("EV") technique, as the Company owns a portion of a nationally syndicated loan. EV is estimated using a multiple of earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"). EBITDA estimates were developed based on historical and projected performance of this company while the EV multiple was derived based on publicly available data of the borrower's respective peer companies and industry (Level 3).

Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans originated or purchased and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at estimated market value in the aggregate (i.e., loans held for sale). Changes in fair value are recognized in residential mortgage banking income, net on the consolidated statements of operations (Level 2).

Certain consumer loans originated by the Company and sourced by fintech partners are classified on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as held for sale. These loans are originated by the Bank and either sold directly to the applicable fintech partner or another investor at par, generally up to 10 days from origination. Due to relatively short time between origination and sale, these loans are held at cost, which approximates fair value (Level 2).

Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO")

Certain assets such as OREO are measured at fair value less estimated costs to sell. Valuation of OREO is generally determined using current appraisals from independent appraisers, a Level 2 input. If current appraisals cannot be obtained prior to reporting dates, or if declines in value are identified after a recent appraisal is received, appraisal values are discounted, resulting in Level 3 estimates. If the Company markets the property with a real estate agent or broker, estimated selling costs reduce the listing price, resulting in a valuation based on Level 3 inputs.

The following tables summarize assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of the dates stated.

Fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practical to estimate the value is based upon the characteristics of the instruments and relevant market information. Financial instruments include cash, evidence of ownership in an entity, or contracts that convey or impose on an entity that contractual right or obligation to either receive or deliver cash for another financial instrument. The information used to determine fair value is highly subjective and judgmental in nature and, therefore, the results may not be precise. Subjective factors include, among other things, estimates of cash flows, risk characteristics, credit quality, and interest rates, all of which are subject to change. Since the fair value is estimated as of the balance sheet date, the amounts that will actually be realized or paid upon settlement or maturity on these various instruments could be significantly different.

The following tables present the estimated fair values, related carrying amounts, and valuation level of the financial instruments as of the dates stated.

Note 11 – Minimum Regulatory Capital

The final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's capital guidelines for U.S. banks (the “Basel III rules”) were fully phased-in at January 1, 2019. Under the Basel III rules, the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios of 2.50 % for all ratios, except the tier 1 leverage ratio. If a banking organization dips into its capital conservation buffer, it is subject to limitations on certain activities, including payment of dividends, share repurchases, and discretionary compensation to certain officers. Management believes as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized; although, these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. At March 31, 2022, the most recent regulatory notification categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution's category.

The following tables present the capital and capital ratios to which the Bank is subject and the amounts and ratios to be adequately and well capitalized as of the dates stated. Adequately capitalized ratios include the conversation buffer, if applicable.

Note 12 – Commitments & Contingencies

In the ordinary course of operations, the Company is party to legal proceedings. Based upon information currently available, management believes that such legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Also, in the ordinary course of operations, the Company offers various financial products to its customers to meet their credit and liquidity needs. These instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and stand-by letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional commitments as it does for on-balance sheet commitments.

Subject to its normal credit standards and risk monitoring procedures, the Company makes contractual commitments to extend credit. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had outstanding loan commitments of $ 496.2 million and $ 475.1 million, respectively.

Conditional commitments are issued by the Company in the form of performance stand-by letters of credit, which guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, commitments under outstanding performance stand-by letters of credit totaled $ 77 thousand and $ 655 thousand, respectively. Additionally, the Company issues financial stand-by letters of credit, which guarantee payment to the underlying beneficiary (i.e., third party) if the customer fails to meet its designated financial obligation. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, commitments under outstanding financial stand-by letters of credit totaled $ 4.7 million and $ 4.5 million, respectively. The credit risk of issuing stand-by letters of credit can be greater than the risk involved in extending loans to customers.

Reserves for unfunded commitments to borrowers as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $ 1.0 million and $ 962 thousand, respectively, and are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company invests in various partnerships and limited liability companies, many of which invest in early-stage companies operating in fintech businesses. Pursuant to these investments, the Company commits to an investment amount that may be fulfilled in future periods. At March 31, 2022, the Company has future commitments outstanding totaling $ 7.7 million related to these investments.

The Company also has investments in various SBIC funds. The Company's obligations to these funds are satisfied in the form of capital calls that occur during the commitment period. As of March 31, 2022, the Company's remaining capital commitments associated with its investments in SBIC funds totaled $ 9.0 million.

Note 13 – Earnings Per Share

The following table shows the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") and the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in computing EPS and the effect on the weighted average number of shares outstanding of dilutive potential common stock. Basic EPS amounts are computed by dividing net income (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator). Diluted EPS amounts assume the conversion, exercise, or issuance of all potential common stock instruments, unless the effect would be to reduce the loss or increase earnings per common share. Potential dilutive common stock instruments include exercisable stock options. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, stock options for 0 shares and 75,410 shares of the Company’s common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effects would have been anti-dilutive, respectively. Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic and dilutive, for the period ended March 31, 2021 are adjusted to reflect the 3-for-2 stock split effective April 30, 2021.

Note 14 – Business Segments

The Company has three reportable business segments: commercial banking, mortgage banking, and holding company activities. The commercial banking business segment makes loans to and generates deposits from individuals and businesses, while offering a wide array of general banking activities to its customers. It is distinct from the Company's mortgage banking division, which concentrates on individual, wholesale, and participated mortgage lending, and sales activities. Activities at the holding company or parent level are primarily associated with investments, borrowings, and certain noninterest expenses.

The following tables present statement of operations items and assets by segment as of and for the periods stated.

Note 16 – Legal Matters

On August 12, 2019, a former employee of Virginia Community Bankshares, Inc. (“VCB”) and participant in its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “VCB ESOP”) filed a class action complaint against VCB, Virginia Community Bank, and certain individuals associated with the VCB ESOP in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia, Charlottesville Division. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to VCB ESOP participants in violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The complaint alleges that the VCB ESOP incurred damages “that approach or exceed $ 12 million.” The Company automatically assumed any liability of VCB in connection with this litigation as a result of its 2019 acquisition of VCB. The outcome of this litigation is uncertain, and the plaintiff and other individuals may file additional lawsuits related to the VCB ESOP. The Company believes the claims are without merit and no loss has been accrued for this lawsuit.

Note 17 – Subsequent Events

On April 6, 2022 , the board of directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $ 0.1225 per share, which was paid on April 29, 2022 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on April 18, 2022 .

General

There were no changes to the Critical Accounting Policies disclosed in Item 7 of the 2021 Form 10-K, except for an irrevocable change in accounting method for mortgage servicing rights ("MSR") assets from the amortization method to the fair value measurement method under Accounting Standards Codification 860 Transfers and Servicing. See Part I, Item 1, Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation for more information.

Comparison of Financial Condition as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021

Total assets were $2.72 billion as of March 31, 2022, an increase of $59 million from $2.67 billion at December 31, 2021. Loans held for investment, excluding PPP loans, increased $66.2 million to $1.84 billion at March 31, 2022 from $1.78 billion at December 31, 2021, an annualized growth rate of 14.9%.

Total deposits as of March 31, 2022 were $2.35 billion, an increase of $56.3 million from December 31, 2021. The increase in the first three months of 2022 was primarily due to noninterest-bearing demand deposits, primarily related to the Company’s fintech partnerships.

Total stockholders’ equity increased by $1.3 million to $278.5 million as of March 31, 2022 compared to $277.1 million at December 31, 2021. The fair value of the Company’s portfolio of available for sale securities declined in the first quarter of 2022, primarily as a result of an increase in market interest rates, resulting in an after-tax decline in stockholders’ equity of $17.9 million . This decrease was offset by net income of $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and a positive $3.5 million cumulative effect adjustment recorded to stockholders’ equity as of January 1, 2022 to account for the change in accounting method for MSR assets, as noted previously.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company reported net income from continuing operations of $17.4 million, or $0.93 earnings per diluted common share, compared to $4.2 million, or $0.28 earnings per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Net income before income taxes for the first quarter of 2022 included $9.4 million of fair value adjustments for the Company's equity investments, primarily in certain fintech companies. Income from MSRs was $6.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $3.4 million compared to the same period of 2021.

Net income before income taxes included merger-related expenses of $50 thousand and $9.0 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, the former attributable to the now-terminated FVCBankcorp, Inc. merger and the latter attributable to the completed Bay Banks Merger.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income is the amount by which interest earned on assets exceeds the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities and is the Company’s primary revenue source. Net interest income is thereby affected by overall balance sheet growth, changes in interest rates, and changes in the mix of investments, loans, deposits, and borrowings. The Company’s principal interest-earning assets are loans to businesses, real estate investors, and individuals as well as its investment securities portfolio. Interest-bearing liabilities consist primarily of negotiable order of withdrawal and savings accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, and Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond ("FRB") advances. Generally, changes in net interest income are measured by the net interest rate spread and the net interest margin. Net interest rate spread is the difference between the rate earned on interest-earning assets and the rate incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin represents the difference between interest income and interest expense calculated as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.

The following table presents the average balance sheets for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Also shown are the amounts of interest earned on interest-earning assets, with related tax-equivalent yields, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, with related rates, as well as a volume and rate analysis of changes in net interest income for the periods stated.

Average interest-earning assets were $2.44 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $2.33 billion for the same period of 2021, a $111.6 million increase. This increase was primarily attributable to organic loan growth and loans acquired in the Bay Banks Merger as of the effective date of the merger and higher average balances of securities, partially offset by significantly lower average balances of PPP loans. Total interest income (on a taxable equivalent basis) increased $3.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 from the same period of 2021. This increase was primarily due to higher average balances of interest-earnings assets, and higher accretion of purchase accounting adjustments (discounts) on acquired loans, partially offset by lower PPP interest and fee income. Interest income in the 2022 and 2021 periods included the amortization of PPP processing fees, net of costs, of $329 thousand and $3.3 million, respectively. Interest income in the first quarters of 2022 and 2021 included accretion of discounts on acquired loans of $2.7 million and $359 thousand, respectively.

Average interest-bearing liabilities were $1.63 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $1.73 billion for the same period of 2021, a $100.2 million decrease. Most of this decrease was attributable to a decline in average balances of FHLB and FRB borrowings of $127.5 million and $332.4 million, respectively, partially offset by higher average balances of interest-bearing deposits. FHLB advances were reduced in the fourth quarter of 2021 commensurate with the termination of interest rate swaps, while FRB advances were reduced as PPP loans were forgiven. Interest expense decreased by $426 thousand to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. Cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 0.52% for the first quarter of 2022 from 0.59% for the first quarter of 2021, partially due to the redemption of subordinated notes in the second and third quarters of 2021. Cost of funds were 0.36% and 0.45% for the first quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Interest expense in the first quarters of 2022 and 2021 included the amortization of fair value adjustments (premium) on assumed time deposits of $474 thousand and $697 thousand, respectively, which was a reduction to interest expense.

Net interest income (on a taxable equivalent basis) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $23.7 million compared to $20.0 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $3.7 million. Net interest margin was 3.88% and 3.43% for first quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Accretion and amortization of purchase accounting adjustments had a 53 and 17 basis point positive effect on net interest margin for the same respective periods. PPP loan processing fees, net of costs, and interest income, along with the corresponding funding costs through the FRB Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF"), had a 2 and 6 basis point positive effect on the Company’s net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2022 compared to $0 for the same period of 2021. The $2.5 million provision in the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to additional reserves for loan growth and higher specific reserves for three relationships.

Noninterest Income . The following table presents a summary of noninterest income and the dollar and percentage change for the periods presented.


	For the three months ended
(Dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021		Change $			Change %

Wealth and trust management		391		602		(211	)		(35.0	%)
Service charges on deposit accounts		315		327		(12	)		(3.7	%)
Increase in cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance		272		164		108			65.9	%
Bank and purchase card, net		422		300		122			40.7	%
Other		2,344		400		1,944			486.0	%
Total noninterest income	$	24,094	$	15,539	$	8,555			55.1	%

Income from fair value adjustments of other equity investments in the first quarter of 2022 was attributable to the Company's equity investments, primarily in certain fintech companies. The Company records certain equity investments at fair value when an observable market event occurs, such as the issuance or transfer of shares of substantially similar investments. The decline in residential mortgage banking income was primarily due to lower mortgage volumes in the first quarter of 2022 ($151.4 million) compared to the first quarter of 2021 ($361.4 million). The decline in mortgage volumes was primarily attributable to a decline in demand for mortgages as market interest rates increased significantly in the first quarter 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. Partially offsetting the decline in residential mortgage banking income was higher income from MSR assets, of which $3.8 million was for the fair value adjustment and $2.9 million for new servicing rights retained. Generally, as market interest rates increase, the value of MSR assets increase as the underlying mortgages are less likely to be refinanced or curtailed. Other noninterest income in the first quarter of 2022 includes a net gain on sale of assets of $404 thousand, primarily attributable to the sale of a former branch location, and fee income from fintech partnerships of $740 thousand (compared to $0 for the same period of 2021).

Noninterest Expense. The following tables present a summary of noninterest expense and the dollar and percentage change for the periods stated.


	For the three months ended
(Dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021		Change $			Change %

Total noninterest expense	$	22,689	$	30,235	$	(7,546	)		(25.0	%)

Excluding merger-related expenses, noninterest expense increased $1.4 million for the three months March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. Higher salaries and employee benefits for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 were primarily attributable to employees added to support the Company’s noninterest income business lines, particularly the fintech business, and additional commercial lenders, partially offset by lower salaries and employee benefit expenses attributable to the mortgage banking division. Other increases in noninterest expenses in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 were partially attributable to the 2021 period including expenses only from the effective date of the Bay Banks Merger, January 31, 2021.

Income Tax Expense . Income tax expense from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $5.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 22.8% and 20.3% for the respective periods. The higher effective income tax rate for the 2022 period was primarily the result of tax provisions made for state income taxes, as the Company expanded its operations, primarily its mortgage banking division, into various states.

Analysis of Financial Condition

Loan Portfolio. The Company makes loans to commercial entities and to individuals. Loan terms vary as to interest rate, repayment, and collateral requirements based on the type of loan and the creditworthiness of the borrower. Credit risk tends to be geographically concentrated in that a majority of the loans are to borrowers located in the markets served by the Company. All loans are underwritten within specific lending policy guidelines that are designed to maximize the Company’s profitability within an acceptable level of business risk.

The following table presents the Company’s loan portfolio by category of loan and the percentage of loans in each category to total loans as of the dates stated.

Although the PPP loans have established terms of one or five years depending on the program under which they were funded, the Company believes that the majority of PPP loans will be forgiven prior to their full term, in accordance with the terms of the program.

Allowance for Loan Losses . Management believes that the Company’s allowance for loan losses ("ALL") was adequate as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There can be no assurance, however, that adjustments to the ALL will not be required in the future. Changes in the economic assumptions underlying management’s estimates and judgments; adverse developments in the economy, on a national basis or in the Company’s market area; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; and changes in the circumstances of particular borrowers are criteria that could increase the level of the ALL required, resulting in charges to the provision for loan losses.

The following table presents an analysis of the change in the ALL by loan type as of and for the periods stated.

The ALL includes specific allowances for impaired loans and a general allowance applicable to all loan categories; however, management has allocated the ALL by loan type to provide an indication of the relative risk characteristics of the loan portfolio. The allocation is an estimate and should not be interpreted as an indication that charge-offs will occur in these amounts, or that the allocation indicates future trends, and does not restrict the usage of the allowance for any specific loan or category. The following table presents the allocation of the ALL by loan category and as a percentage of each category as of the dates stated.

The information in the table above excludes PPP loans, which carry no ALL as they are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government.

Nonperforming Assets. Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest, and other real estate owned (“OREO”).

OREO includes properties that have been substantively repossessed or acquired in complete or partial satisfaction of a loan. Such properties, which are held for resale, are carried at the lower of cost or fair market value, including a reduction for the estimated selling expenses.

Impaired loans also include certain loans that have been modified as troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include

reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six month s. The Company reported $673 thousand and $688 thousand of TDRs as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. All of these TDRs were performing in accordance with their modified terms at the respective dates and therefore excluded from the nonperforming loan and non-performing asset figures in the table below.

The following table presents summary information pertaining to nonperforming assets and certain asset quality ratios as of the dates stated.

(1) Excludes PCI loans and accruing TDRs

The decrease in the ratio of ALL to total loans held for investment, excluding PPP loans, at March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021 was primarily attributable to a partial charge-off of a nonaccrual commercial loan related to one relationship, partially offset by reserve needs for loan growth in the first quarter of 2022. The remaining purchase accounting adjustments (discounts) related to loans acquired in the Bay Banks Merger and earlier acquisitions by the Company were $13.5 million and $16.2 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Investment Securities. The investment portfolio is used as a source of interest income, credit risk diversification, and liquidity, as well as to manage rate sensitivity and provide collateral for short-term borrowings. Securities in the investment portfolio classified as securities available for sale may be sold in response to changes in market interest rates, changes in the securities’ prepayment risk, increased loan demand, general liquidity needs, and other similar factors, and are carried at estimated fair value. The fair value of the Company’s investment securities available for sale was $375.5 million as of March 31, 2022, a slight increase from $373.5 million at December 31, 2021. Primarily as a result of a significant increase in market interest rates in the first quarter of 2022, the value of the Company’s portfolio of securities available for sale declined approximately $22.6 million. This decline in value was offset by investment purchases, net of investment paydowns, totaling $24.9 million in the first quarter of 2022.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the majority of the investment securities portfolio consisted of securities rated as investment grade by a leading rating agency. Investment grade securities are judged to have a low risk of default. Investment securities pledged to secure public deposits totaled $0 and $8.7 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, securities with a fair value of $20.0 million and $23.1 million, respectively, were pledged to secure the Bank’s borrowing facility with the FHLB.

Investment securities with unrealized losses are generally a result of pricing changes due to changes in the current interest rate environment and not as a result of permanent credit impairment. Contractual cash flows for the agency mortgage-backed securities are guaranteed and/or funded by the U.S. government. Municipal securities show no indication that the contractual cash flows will not be received when due. The Company does not intend to sell nor does it believe that it will be required to sell any of its temporarily impaired securities prior to the recovery of the amortized cost. No other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized for the securities as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Restricted equity investments consisted of stock in the FHLB (carrying basis $1.8 million and $1.7 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively), stock in the FRB (carrying basis of $6.1 million at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively), and stock in the Company’s correspondent bank (carrying basis of $468 thousand at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021). Restricted equity investments are carried at cost. The Company holds various other equity investments, including shares in other financial institutions and fintech companies, totaling $23.9 million and $14.2 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which are carried at fair value with any gain or loss reported in the consolidated statements of operations each reporting period.

The Company also holds investments in early-stage focused investment funds, small business investment companies ("SBIC") , and low-income housing partnerships, which are reported in other investments on the consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents information about the Company’s investment portfolio for the periods stated.

Deposits. The principal sources of funds for the Company are core deposits (demand deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, money market accounts, savings deposits, and certificates of deposit), primarily from its market area. The Company’s deposit base includes transaction accounts, time and savings accounts, and other accounts that customers use for cash management purposes and which provide the Company with a source of fee income and cross-marketing opportunities as well as a low-cost source of funds. Time and savings accounts, including money market deposit accounts, also provide a relatively stable low-cost source of funding.

Total deposits as of March 31, 2022 were $2.35 billion, an increase of $56.3 million from December 31, 2021, of which $60.4 million was attributable to noninterest-bearing demand deposit growth primarily related to the Company's fintech partnerships. The Company's expanding relationships with fintech partners have resulted in approximately $329 million of deposits as of March 31, 2022, up from $189 million as of December 31, 2021.

Approximately 19.4% of the Company’s deposits as of March 31, 2022 were composed of time deposits compared to 21.7% as of December 31, 2021. In contrast, approximately 32.6% of the Company’s deposits as of March 31, 2022 were composed of noninterest-bearing demand deposits compared to 30.7% as of December 31, 2021. The increase in this ratio was primarily attributable to the Company's relationships with fintech partners, as noted previously.

The following table presents maturities of time deposits for certificate of deposits of $250 thousand or greater as of the dates stated.

FRB borrowings		17,901		632,540		245,196		0.32	%

FHLB advances are secured by collateral consisting of a blanket lien on qualifying loans in the Company’s residential, multi-family, and commercial real estate mortgage loan portfolios, as well as selected investment securities.

FRB borrowings through the PPPLF are secured by loans the Bank originated under the PPP. The PPPLF advances are at the full PPP loan value and term, have a fixed annual cost of 35 basis points, and receive favorable regulatory capital treatment.

Subordinated notes, net, totaled $40.0 million as of both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Liquidity . Liquidity is essential to the Company’s business. The Company’s liquidity could be impaired by unforeseen outflows of cash, including deposits or the inability to access the capital markets. This situation may arise due to circumstances that the Company may be unable to control, such as general market disruption, negative views about the Company or the financial services industry generally, or an operational problem that affects the Company or a third party. The Company’s ability to borrow from other financial institutions on favorable terms or at all could be adversely affected by disruptions in the capital markets or other events.

The Company has established a formal liquidity contingency plan that provides guidelines for liquidity management. Pursuant to the Company’s liquidity management program, it first determines its current liquidity position and then forecasts liquidity based on anticipated changes in the balance sheet. In this forecast, the Company expects to maintain a liquidity cushion. Management then stress tests the Company’s liquidity position under several different stress scenarios, from moderate to severe. Guidelines for the forecasted liquidity cushion and for liquidity cushions for each stress scenario have been established. Management also monitors the Company’s liquidity position through cash flow forecasting and believes its level of liquidity and capital is adequate to conduct the business of the Company.

Deposits are the primary source of the Company’s liquidity. Cash flow from amortizing assets or maturing assets provides funding to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers. The Company has unsecured federal fund lines available with correspondent banks for overnight borrowing totaling $44.0 million as of both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. These lines bear interest at the prevailing rates for such loan and are cancellable any time by the correspondent Bank. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, none of these lines of credit with correspondent banks were drawn upon.

In addition to deposits and federal funds lines, the Company has access to various wholesale funding markets. These markets include the brokered certificate of deposit market, listing service deposit market, and the federal funds market. The Company is a member of the IntraFi Network (formerly, Promontory Interfinancial Network), which allows banking customers to access Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) insurance protection through the Bank on deposits that exceed FDIC insurance limits. The Company also has one-way authority with the IntraFi Network for both Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service and Insured Cash Sweep products which provides the Company the ability to access additional wholesale funding as needed.

The Company also maintains secured lines of credit with the FHLB and the FRB under which the Company can borrow up to the allowable amount for the collateral pledged. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a credit line available of $315.1 million with the FHLB with outstanding advances totaling $10.0 million and letters of credit totaling $85.0 million, leaving the remaining credit availability of $220.1 million as of the same date. The letters of credit are for the benefits of the Commonwealth of Virginia to secure public deposits.

The Company utilized the FRB PPPLF to partially fund PPP loans, which collateralize the advances. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, FRB borrowings under this facility totaled $15.2 million and $17.9 million, respectively.

Capital. Capital adequacy is an important measure of financial stability and performance. The Company’s objectives are to maintain a level of capitalization that is sufficient to sustain asset growth and promote depositor and investor confidence.

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, financial institutions must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. A financial institution's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Pursuant to the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's capital guidelines for U.S. banks (the “Basel III rules”), the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.50% above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios for all ratios, except the tier 1 leverage ratio. If a banking organization dips into its capital conservation buffer, it is subject to limitations on certain activities, including payment of dividends, share repurchases, and discretionary compensation to certain officers. Management believes as of March 31, 2022, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirement to which it is subject.

The following tables present the capital and capital ratios to which the Bank is subject and the amounts and ratios to be adequately and well capitalized for the dates stated. Adequately capitalized ratios include the conversation buffer, if applicable.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

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 drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include real estate and income producing commercial properties. The approved commitments to extend credit that was available but unused as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaled $496.2 million and $475.1 million, respectively.

Conditional commitments are issued by the Company in the form of performance stand-by letters of credit, which guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, commitments under outstanding performance stand-by letters of credit totaled $77 thousand and $655 thousand, respectively. Additionally, the Company issues financial stand-by letters of credit, which guarantee payment to the underlying beneficiary (i.e., third party) if the customer fails to meet its designated financial obligation. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, commitments under outstanding financial stand-by letters of credit totaled $4.7 million and $4.5

million, respectively. The credit risk of issuing stand-by letters of credit can be greater than the risk involved in extending loans to customers.

Reserves for unfunded commitments as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $1.0 million and $962 thousand, respectively, and are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balances sheets.

The Company invests in various partnerships and limited liability companies, many of which invest in early-stage companies. Pursuant to these investments, the Company commits to an investment amount that may be fulfilled in future periods, pursuant to capital calls. At March 31, 2022, the Company had future commitments outstanding totaling $7.7 million related to these investments.

Interest Rate Risk Management

As a financial institution, the Company is exposed to various business risks, including interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and value arising from volatility in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricing and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities arising from embedded options, such as borrowers' ability to prepay loans and depositors' ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity, changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion, and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries and other market-based index rates. The Company’s goal is to maximize net interest income without incurring excessive interest rate risk. Management of net interest income and interest rate risk must be consistent with the level of capital and liquidity that the Bank maintains. The Company manages interest rate risk through an asset and liability committee comprised of members of its board of directors and management (the “ALCO”). The ALCO is responsible for monitoring the Company’s interest rate risk in conjunction with liquidity and capital management.

The Company employs an independent consulting firm to model its interest rate sensitivity that uses a net interest income simulation model as its primary tool to measure interest rate sensitivity. Assumptions for modeling are developed based on expected activity in the balance sheet. For maturing assets, assumptions are created for the redeployment of these assets. For maturing liabilities, assumptions are developed for the replacement of these funding sources. Assumptions are also developed for assets and liabilities that could reprice during the modeled time period. These assumptions also cover how management expects rates to change on non-maturity deposits such as interest checking, money market checking, savings accounts, as well as certificates of deposit. Based on inputs that include the current balance sheet, the current level of interest rates, and the developed assumptions, the model produces an expected level of net interest income assuming that market rates remain unchanged. This is considered the base case. The model then simulates the impact on net interest income based on specific changes in interest rates. The rate simulations are performed for a two-year period and include rapid rate changes of down 100 basis points to 200 basis points and up 100 basis points to 400 basis points. The results of these simulations are then compared to the base case.


	March 31, 2022
	Instantaneous Parallel Rate Shock Scenario
	Change in Net Interest Income - Year 1					Change in Net Interest Income - Year 2
Change in interest rates:
+400 basis points	$	9,159		10.3	%	$	16,859		18.9	%
+300 basis points		8,062		9.1	%		13,833		15.5	%
+200 basis points		6,188		7.0	%		10,121		11.3	%

-100 basis points		(2,603	)	(2.9	%)		(4,493	)	(5.0	%)
-200 basis points		(3,930	)	(4.4	%)		(6,592	)	(7.4	%)

Stress testing the balance sheet and net interest income using instantaneous parallel shock movements in the yield curve of 100 to 400 basis points is a regulatory and banking industry practice. However, these stress tests may not represent a realistic forecast of future interest rate movements in the yield curve. In addition, instantaneous parallel interest rate shock modeling is not a predictor of actual future performance of earnings. It is a financial metric used to manage interest rate risk and track the movement of the Company’s interest rate risk position over a historical time frame for comparison purposes.

The asset and liability repricing characteristics of the Company’s assets and liabilities will have a significant impact on its future interest rate risk profile .

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitati ve Disclosures about Market Risk

This information is incorporated herein by reference to the information in section "Interest Rate Risk Management" within Part I, Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods required by the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on and as of the date of such evaluation, the aforementioned officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Company’s management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
