FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may relate to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of OFG Bancorp (“we,” “our,” “us” or “OFG”), including, but not limited to, statements with respect to the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, delinquency trends, market risk and the impact of interest rate changes, capital markets conditions, capital adequacy and liquidity, and the effect of legal proceedings and new accounting standards on OFG’s financial condition and results of operations. All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature are forward-looking, and the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continues,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “project” and similar expressions and future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “might,” “can,” “may,” or similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions by management that are difficult to predict. Various factors, some of which by their nature are beyond OFG’s control, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to:

 the rate of growth in the economy and employment levels, as well as general business and economic conditions;

 changes in interest rates, as well as the magnitude of such changes;

 a credit default by municipalities of the government of Puerto Rico;

 amendments to the fiscal plan approved by the Financial Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico;

 determinations in the court-supervised debt-restructuring process under Title III of PROMESA for the Puerto Rico government and all of its agencies, including some of its public corporations;

 unforeseen or catastrophic events, including extreme weather events, other natural disasters, man-made disasters or the emergence of pandemics, which could cause a disruption in our operations or other adverse consequences for our business;

 the impact of property, credit and other losses in Puerto Rico as a result of hurricanes, earthquakes and other natural disasters;

 the amount of government, private and philanthropic financial assistance for the reconstruction of Puerto Rico’s critical infrastructure, which suffered catastrophic damages caused by hurricane Maria in 2017 and earthquakes in 2020;

 the pace and magnitude of Puerto Rico’s economic recovery;

 the fiscal and monetary policies of the federal government and its agencies;

 changes in federal bank regulatory and supervisory policies, including required levels of capital;

 the relative strength or weakness of the commercial and consumer credit sectors and the real estate market in Puerto Rico;

 the performance of the stock and bond markets;

 competition in the financial services industry;

 possible legislative, tax or regulatory changes;

 the emergence of widespread health emergencies or pandemics, including the magnitude and duration of the Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on the United States, Puerto Rico, and/or global economy, financial market conditions and our business, results of operations and financial condition; and

 the impact of the actions taken by federal and local governmental authorities to try and contain the Covid-19 virus and its variants or address the impact of the virus on the United States and Puerto Rico economy (including, without limitation, the CARES Act), and the resulting effect of all of such items on our operations, liquidity and capital position, and on the financial condition of our borrowers and other customers.

Other possible events or factors that could cause results or performance to differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements include the following: negative economic conditions that adversely affect the general economy, housing prices, the job market, consumer confidence and spending habits which may affect, among other things, the level of non-performing assets, charge-offs and provision expense; changes in interest rates and market liquidity which may reduce interest margins, impact funding sources and affect the ability to originate and distribute financial products in the primary and secondary markets; adverse movements and volatility in debt and equity capital markets; changes in market rates and prices which may adversely impact the value of financial assets and liabilities; risk of impairment of investment securities, goodwill, other intangible assets or deferred tax assets; liabilities resulting from litigation and regulatory investigations; changes in accounting standards, rules and interpretations; increased competition; OFG’s ability to grow its core businesses; decisions to downsize, sell or close units or otherwise change OFG’s business mix; and management’s ability to identify and manage these and other risks.

All forward-looking statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are based upon information available to OFG as of the date of this report, and other than as required by law, including the requirements of applicable securities laws, OFG assumes no obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

OFG is a publicly-owned financial holding company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. OFG operates through various subsidiaries including, a commercial bank, Oriental Bank (the “Bank”), a securities broker-dealer, Oriental Financial Services LLC (“Oriental Financial Services”), an insurance agency, Oriental Insurance, LLC (“Oriental Insurance”), and a retirement plan administrator, Oriental Pension Consultants, Inc. (“OPC”), and OFG Ventures LLC (“OFG Ventures”). OFG also has a special purpose entity, Oriental Financial (PR) Statutory Trust II (the “Statutory Trust II”) through which it issued trust preferred securities. Through its operating subsidiaries and their respective divisions, OFG provides a wide range of banking and financial services such as commercial, consumer and mortgage lending, leasing, auto loans, financial planning, insurance sales, money management and investment banking and brokerage services, as well as corporate and individual trust services.

On April 30, 2010, the Bank acquired certain assets and assumed certain deposits and other liabilities of Eurobank, a Puerto Rico commercial bank, in an FDIC-assisted acquisition. On February 6, 2017, the Bank and the FDIC agreed to terminate the shared-loss agreements related to the Eurobank Acquisition. On December 18, 2012, OFG acquired a group of Puerto Rico-based entities that included Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria Puerto Rico (“BBVAPR”), a Puerto Rico commercial bank, as well as a securities broker-dealer and an insurance agency, which is referred to herein as the “BBVAPR Acquisition.” On December 31, 2019, OFG purchased from the BNS all outstanding common stock of Scotiabank de Puerto Rico (“SBPR”). Immediately following the closing of the Scotiabank Acquisition, OFG merged SBPR with and into Oriental Bank, with Oriental Bank continuing as the surviving entity. As part of this transaction, Oriental Bank also acquired the U.S. Virgin Islands banking operations of BNS through an acquisition of certain assets and an assumption of certain liabilities, and certain loans and assumed certain liabilities from BNS’s Puerto Rico branch. This transaction is referred to as the “Scotiabank PR & USVI Acquisition.” These acquired businesses have been integrated for financial reporting purposes.

During March 2020, a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of Coronavirus (Covid-19). The pandemic has significantly impacted economic conditions in P.R. and the U.S., creating significant uncertainties. To address the economic impact in the U.S., in March and April 2020, the President signed into law four economic stimulus packages to provide relief to businesses and individuals, including the $2.2 trillion Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). On December 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, a $900 billion coronavirus relief bill as part of a larger $1.4 trillion omnibus spending and appropriations bill. Refer to Management Discussion and Analysis for additional information. On March 11, 2021, the President signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, a $1.9 trillion coronavirus rescue package designed to facilitate the United States’ recovery from the devastating economic and health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The package includes direct stimulus payments of $1,400, extends unemployment compensation, continues eviction and foreclosure moratoriums, and increases the Child Tax Credit while making it fully refundable. It provides funds for state and local governments to help compensate for lost tax revenues, money for schools from kindergarten through eighth grade to safely reopen amid the pandemic and subsidizes Covid-19 testing and vaccination programs.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of OFG have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with guidance provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of OFG on a consolidated basis, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The Company evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of its quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the SEC and has recorded or disclosed those material events or transactions as described within the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.

Significant Accounting Policies

OFG’s significant accounting and reporting policies can be found in Note 1 of the Company’s annual financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 .

New Accounting Updates Adopted in 2021

Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)

On January 1, 2021, OFG adopted ASU 2019-12 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which removes certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intra-period tax allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The ASU also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. Our adoption of this standard did not have an impact on our financial statements.

Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method And Joint Ventures (Topic 323), And Derivatives And Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying The Interactions Between Topic 321, Topic 323, And Topic 815 (A Consensus Of The Emerging Issues Task Force)

On January 1, 2021, OFG adopted ASU 2020-01, which clarifies accounting for certain equity method investments (ASU 2020-01) clarifies the interactions between Topic 321 (equity securities), Topic 323 (equity method and joint ventures) and Topic 815 (derivatives and hedge accounting). The ASU addresses the accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. Our adoption of this standard did not an impact on our financial statements.

Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (Topic 848)

On January 1, 2021, OFG adopted ASU 2020-04, which provides accounting relief from the future impact of the cessation of LIBOR by, among other things, providing optional expedients to treat contract modifications resulting from such reference rate reform as a continuation of the existing contract and for hedging relationships to not be de-designated resulting from such changes provided certain criteria are met. Our adoption of this standard did not have an impact on our contracts that referenced to Libor rate. OFG will continue to monitor to identify when these changes take effect in order to take advantage of this ASU.

NOTE 2 – RESTRICTED CASH

The following table includes the composition of OFG’s restricted cash:

	March 31,		December 31,
	2021		2020
	(In thousands)
Cash pledged as collateral to other financial institutions to secure:
Regulatory requirements	$	-	$	325
Obligations under agreement of loans sold with recourse		1,050		1,050
	$	1,050	$	1,375

At both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank’s international banking entities held short-term highly liquid securities in the amount of $ 305 thousand and $ 325 thousand as the legal reserve required for international banking entities under Puerto Rico law. In addition, as part of the Scotiabank PR & USVI acquisition on December 31, 2020, cash of $ 325 thousand was held for the acquired international banking entity that was retained as part of the integration. These instruments cannot be withdrawn or transferred without the prior written approval of the OCFI.

OFG has a contract with FNMA which requires collateral to guarantee the repurchase, if necessary, of loans sold with recourse. At both, March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG delivered as collateral cash amounting to approximately $ 1.1 million.

The Bank is required by Puerto Rico law to maintain average weekly reserve balances to cover demand deposits. The amount of those minimum average reserve balances for the week that covered March 31, 2021 was $ 441.5 million (December 31, 2020 - $ 408.5 million). At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank complied with this requirement. Cash and due from bank as well as other short-term, highly liquid securities, are used to cover the required average reserve balances.

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Money Market Investments

OFG considers as cash equivalents all money market instruments that are not pledged and that have maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, money market instruments included as part of cash and cash equivalents amounted to $ 11.4 million and $ 11.9 million, respectively.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

Effective January 1, 2020, OFG adopted the new accounting standard for credit losses that requires evaluation of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity debt securities for any expected losses with recognition of an allowance for credit losses, when applicable. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all securities held by OFG are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies that have a zero-credit loss assumption.

The amortized cost and fair value of OFG’s investment securities at March 31, 2021, by contractual maturity, are shown in the next table. Securities not due on a single contractual maturity date, such as collateralized mortgage obligations, are classified in the period of final contractual maturity.

The tables below present the aging of the amortized cost of loans held for investment at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, by class of loans. Mortgage loans past due include $ 40.8 million and $ 56.2 million, respectively, of delinquent loans in the GNMA buy-back option program. Servicers of loans underlying GNMA mortgage-backed securities must report as their own assets the defaulted loans that they have the option (but not the obligation) to repurchase, even when they elect not to exercise that option.

Delinquent residential mortgage loans insured or guaranteed under applicable FHA and VA programs are classified as non-performing loans when they become 90 days or more past due but are not placed in non-accrual status until they become 12 months or more past due, since they are insured loans. Therefore, those loans are included as non-performing loans but excluded from non-accrual loans.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31 2020, loans whose terms have been extended and which were classified as troubled-debt restructurings that were not included in non-accrual loans amounted to $ 119.5 million and $ 109.2 million, respectively, as they were performing under their new terms.

Modifications

OFG offers various types of concessions when modifying a loan. Concessions made to the original contractual terms of the loan typically consists of the deferral of interest and/or principal payments due to deterioration in the borrowers' financial condition. In these cases, the principal balance on the TDR had matured and/or was in default at the time of restructure. The amount of outstanding commitments to lend additional funds to commercial borrowers whose terms have been modified in TDRs amounted to $ 3.7 million and $ 7.7 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021, the recorded investment on residential mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that were in the process of foreclosure amounted to $ 26.6 million. OFG commences the foreclosure process on residential real estate loans when a borrower becomes 120 days delinquent. Puerto Rico and the USVI require the foreclosure to be processed through the state’s court. Foreclosure timelines vary according to local jurisdiction law and investor guidelines. Occasionally, foreclosures may be delayed due to, among other reasons, mandatory mediations, bankruptcy, court delays and title issues.

Credit Quality Indicators

OFG categorizes its loans into loan grades based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as economic conditions, portfolio risk characteristics, prior loss experience, and the results of periodic credit reviews of individual loans.

OFG uses the following definitions for loan grades:

Pass: Loans classified as “pass” have a well-defined primary source of repayment very likely to be sufficient, with no apparent risk, strong financial position, minimal operating risk, profitability, liquidity and capitalization better than industry standards.

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 paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the 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, questionable and improbable.

Loss: Loans classified as “loss” are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this worthless loan even though partial recovery may be effected in the future.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass loans.

NOTE 5 – ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

On January 1, 2020, OFG adopted the new accounting standard that requires the measurement of the allowance for credit losses to be based on management’s best estimate of lifetime expected credit losses inherent in OFG’s relevant financial assets. Upon adoption of the new accounting standard, OFG recorded a $ 89.7 million increase in the allowance for credit losses on January 1, 2020. For Non-PCD loans, which represents 70 % of the total loan portfolio, a $ 39.2 million allowance was recorded. For PCD loans, which represents 30 % of the total loan portfolio, a $ 50.5 million adjustment was made through the allowance and loan balances with no impact in capital.

The allowance for credit losses is estimated using quantitative methods that consider a variety of factors such as historical loss experience, the current credit quality of the portfolio as well as an economic outlook over the life of the loan. Also included in the ACL are qualitative reserves to cover losses that are expected but, in OFG's assessment, may not be adequately represented in the quantitative methods or the economic assumptions. In its loss forecasting framework, OFG incorporates forward-looking information through the use of macroeconomic scenarios applied over the forecasted life of the assets. The scenarios that are chosen each quarter and the amount of weighting given to each scenario depend on a variety of factors including recent economic events, leading economic indicators, views of internal as well as third-party economists and industry trends.

At March 31, 2021, OFG used a probability weighted scenario approach using Moody’s Economic Forecast Scenarios as it is expected that Puerto Rico’s economic performance should be close to the baseline scenario, and to a lesser extent to the S3 (pessimistic) scenario. In addition, the allowance for credit losses at March 31, 2021 continues to include qualitative reserves for certain segments that OFG views as higher risk that may not be fully recognized through its quantitative models such as commercial loans concentrated in certain industries. There are still many unknowns including the duration of the impact of Covid-19 on the economy and the results of the government fiscal and monetary actions.

Decrease in fair value due to 10% adverse change	$	( 2,150 )
Decrease in fair value due to 20% adverse change	$	( 4,136 )

These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. As the figures indicate, changes in fair value based on a 10% variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in this table, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the retained interest is calculated without changing any other assumption.

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 offset the sensitivities. Mortgage banking activities, a component of total banking and financial service revenue in the consolidated statements of operations, include the changes from period to period in the fair value of the mortgage loan servicing rights, which may result from changes in the valuation model inputs or assumptions (principally reflecting changes in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions) and other changes, including changes due to collection/realization of expected cash flows.

Servicing fee income is based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and is recorded as income when earned. Servicing fees on mortgage loans for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 totaled $ 5.2 million and $ 4.8 million, respectively.

Interest Rate Swaps

OFG enters into interest rate swap contracts to hedge the variability of future interest cash flows of forecasted wholesale borrowings attributable to changes in a predetermined variable index rate. The interest rate swaps effectively fix OFG’s interest payments on an amount of forecasted interest expense attributable to the variable index rate corresponding to the swap notional stated rate. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges for the forecasted wholesale borrowing transactions and are properly documented as such; therefore, qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. Any gain or loss associated with the effective portion of the cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into operations in the period during which the hedged forecasted transactions affect earnings. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent there is no significant ineffectiveness in the cash flow hedging relationships. Currently, OFG does not expect to reclassify any amount included in other comprehensive income related to these interest rate swaps to operations in the next twelve months.

The following table shows a summary of these swaps and their terms at March 31, 2021:

Accumulated unrealized losses of $ 1.5 million and $ 1.7 million were recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the valuation of these swaps at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and the related liability is being reflected in the consolidated statements of financial condition.

Interest Rate Caps

OFG has entered into interest rate cap transactions with various clients with floating-rate debt who wish to protect their financial results against increases in interest rates. In these cases, OFG simultaneously enters into mirror-image interest rate cap transactions with financial counterparties. None of these cap transactions qualify for hedge accounting, and therefore, they are marked to market through earnings. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the outstanding total notional amount of interest rate caps was $ 26.6 million and $ 40.4 million, respectively. At both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the interest rate caps sold to clients represented a liability with zero value. At both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the interest rate caps purchased as mirror-images represented an asset of zero value.

NOTE 9 — GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG had $ 86.1 million of goodwill allocated as follows: $ 84.1 million to the banking segment and $ 2.0 million to the wealth management segment (refer to Note 24 for the definition of OFG’s reportable business segments). There were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Goodwill recorded in connection with the BBVAPR Acquisition and the FDIC-assisted Eurobank Acquisition is not amortized to expense but is tested at least annually for impairment. No goodwill was recorded in connection with the Scotiabank PR & USVI Acquisition. A quantitative annual impairment test is not required if, based on a qualitative analysis, OFG determines that the existence of events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired. OFG performs annual goodwill impairment test as of October 31 and monitors for interim triggering events on an ongoing basis. OFG tests for impairment by first allocating its goodwill and other assets and liabilities, as necessary, to defined reporting segments. A fair value is then determined for each reporting segment. If the fair values of the reporting segments exceed their book values, no write-down of the recorded goodwill is necessary.

Reporting segment valuation is inherently subjective, with a number of factors based on assumptions and management judgments or estimates. Actual values may differ significantly from such estimates. Among these are future growth rates for the reporting units, selection of comparable market transactions, discount rates and earnings capitalization rates. Changes in assumptions and results due to economic conditions, industry factors, and reporting unit performance and cash flow projections could result in different assessments of the fair values of reporting segments and could result in impairment charges. If an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting segment below its carrying amount, an interim impairment test is required.

Relevant events and circumstances for evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting segment is less than its carrying amount may include macroeconomic conditions (such as a further deterioration of the Puerto Rico economy or the liquidity for Puerto Rico securities or loans secured by assets in Puerto Rico), adverse changes in legal factors or in the business climate, adverse actions by a regulator, unanticipated competition, the loss of key employees, natural disasters, or similar events.

OFG performed its annual impairment review of goodwill during the fourth quarters of 2020 using October 31, 2020, respectively, as the annual evaluation date and concluded that there was no impairment at 2020. There were no additional events that caused OFG to perform interim testing during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

NOTE 14 — INCOME TAXES

OFG is subject to the provisions of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code of 2011, as amended (the “Code”), which imposes a maximum statutory corporate tax rate of 37.5 % on a corporation’s net taxable income. Under the Code, all corporations are treated as separate taxable entities and are not entitled to file consolidated tax returns. Such entities are subject to Puerto Rico regular income tax or the alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) on income earned from all sources pursuant to the Code. The AMT is payable if it exceeds regular income tax. The excess of AMT over regular income tax paid in any one year may be used to offset regular income tax in future years, subject to certain limitations.

OFG also has operations in the United States mainland through its wholly owned subsidiary, OPC, a retirement plan administrator based in Florida. In October 2017, OFG expanded its operations in the United States through the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary, OFG USA. In addition, in March 2019, OFG incorporated in Delaware OFG Ventures, a limited liability company, which will hold new investments; also, on December 31, 2019, OFG established a new branch in USVI acquired as a result of the Scotiabank PR & USVI Acquisition. The United States subsidiaries are subject to federal income taxes at the corporate level, while the USVI branch is subject to the federal income taxes under a mirror system and a 10 % surtax included in the maximum tax rate. OPC is subject to Florida state taxes, OFG USA is subject to North Carolina state taxes, and current investments in OFG Ventures are subject to state taxes in Missouri.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG’s net deferred tax asset amounted to $ 154.5 million and $ 162.5 million, respectively. In assessing the realizability of the deferred tax asset, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax asset is mainly dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax asset is deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that OFG will realize the deferred tax asset, net of the existing valuation allowances recorded at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The amount of the deferred tax asset that is considered realizable could be reduced in the near term if there are changes in estimates of future taxable income.

OFG maintained an effective tax rate lower than the statutory rate for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 of 31.9 % and 14.2 %, respectively. The current effective tax rate was lower than statutory tax rates mainly due to the exempt income and income taxed at preferential tax rates.

OFG classifies unrecognized tax benefits in other liabilities. These gross unrecognized tax benefits would affect the effective tax rate if realized. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, unrecognized tax benefits amounted to $ 746 thousand and $ 1.9 million, respectively.

Income tax expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, was $ 14.2 million and $ 297 thousand, respectively.

NOTE 15 — REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Regulatory Capital Requirements

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

Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, federal banking regulators adopted capital rules based on the framework of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in “Basel III: A Global Regulatory Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” (“Basel III”), which became effective January 1, 2015 for OFG and the Bank (subject to certain phase-in periods through January 1, 2019) and that replaced their general risk-based capital rules, advanced approaches rule, market risk rule, and leverage rules. Among other matters, the Basel III capital rules: (i) introduce a capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1” (“CET1”) and related regulatory capital ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets; (ii) specify that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 capital” instruments meeting certain revised requirements; (iii) mandate that most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of capital; and (iv) expand the scope of the deductions from and adjustments to capital as compared to prior regulations. The Basel III capital rules prescribe a new standardized approach for risk weightings that expand the risk-weighting categories from the previous four Basel I-derived categories (0%, 20%, 50% and 100%) to a larger and more risk-sensitive number of categories, depending on the nature of the assets, and resulting in higher risk weights for a variety of asset classes.

Pursuant to the Basel III capital rules, the minimum capital ratios requirements are as follows:

4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted assets;

OFG BANCORP

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

6.0% Tier 1 capital (that is, CET1 plus Additional Tier 1 capital) to risk-weighted assets;

8.0% Total capital (that is, Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital) to risk-weighted assets; and

4.0% Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets as reported on consolidated financial statements (known

as the “leverage ratio”).

In July 2019, the federal banking regulatory agencies adopted a final rule, pursuant to the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 that simplifies for non-advanced approaches banking organizations simplifies the regulatory capital treatment for mortgage servicing assets (“MSAs”) and certain deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences (temporary difference DTAs). It increases CET1 capital threshold deductions from 10% to 25% and removes the aggregate 15% CET1 threshold deduction. However, it retains the 250% risk weight applicable to non-deducted amounts of MSAs and temporary difference DTAs. In November 2019, the agencies jointly issued a final rule that permits insured depository institutions and depository institution holding companies to implement the simplifications to the capital rule on January 1, 2020, rather than April 1, 2020. These banking organizations may elect to use the revised effective date of January 1, 2020 or wait until the quarter beginning April 1, 2020. OFG elected to early implement the simplifications to the capital rule on January 1, 2020. The simplification rule increased the capital ratios.

On January 1, 2020, OFG adopted CECL with the initial implementation adjustment to Non-PCD loans and off-balance sheet instruments against retained earnings. On March 27, 2020, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, U.S. banking regulators issued an interim final rule that OFG adopted to delay for two years the initial adoption impact of CECL on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period to phase out the aggregate amount of the capital benefit provided during 2020 and 2021 (i.e., a five-year transition period). During the two-year delay, OFG will add back to CET1 capital 100 percent of the initial adoption impact of CECL plus 25 percent of the cumulative quarterly changes in the allowance for credit losses (i.e., quarterly transitional amounts). After two years, starting on January 1, 2022, the quarterly transitional amounts along with the initial adoption impact of CECL will be phased out of CET1 capital over the three-year period.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG and the Bank are “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well capitalized,” an institution must maintain minimum CET1 risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, total risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the tables presented below.

On March 29, 2021 OFG announced the redemption of all three series of currently outstanding preferred stock, each at a redemption price of $ 25.00 per share. The Series A and Series B Preferred Stock were redeemed on April 30, 2021, and the Series D Preferred Stock will be redeemed on July 15, 2021.

Additional Paid-in Capital

Additional paid-in capital represents contributed capital in excess of par value of common and preferred stock net of the costs of issuance. As of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, accumulated issuance costs charged against additional paid-in capital amounted to $ 13.6 million and $ 10.1 million for common and preferred stock, respectively.

Legal Surplus

The Puerto Rico Banking Act requires that a minimum of 10% of the Bank’s net income for the year be transferred to a reserve fund until such fund (legal surplus) equals the total paid in capital on common and preferred stock. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Bank’s legal surplus amounted to $ 106.2 million and $ 103.3 million, respectively. The amount transferred to the legal surplus account is not available for the payment of dividends to shareholders.

Treasury Stock

Under OFG’s current stock repurchase program, it is authorized to purchase in the open market up to $ 5.5 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. The shares of common stock repurchased are to be held by OFG as treasury shares. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, OFG repurchased 175,000 shares under this program for a total of $ 2.2 million, at an average price of $ 12.69 per share. OFG did not purchase any shares of its common stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 other than through its publicly announced stock repurchase program. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, OFG did no t repurchased any shares.

At March 31, 2021 the number of shares that may yet be purchased under the $ 70 million program is estimated at 243,609 and was calculated by dividing the remaining balance of $ 5.5 million by $ 22.62 (closing price of OFG’s common stock at March 31, 2021).

NOTE 19 – GUARANTEES

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the notional amount of the obligations undertaken in issuing the guarantees under standby letters of credit represented a liability of $ 20.6 million and $ 19.5 million, respectively.

OFG has a liability for residential mortgage loans sold subject to credit recourse pursuant to GNMA’s and FNMA’s residential mortgage loan sales and securitization programs. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unpaid principal balance of residential mortgage loans sold subject to credit recourse was $ 131.5 million and $ 135.3 million, respectively.

The following table shows the changes in OFG’s liability for estimated losses from these credit recourse agreements, included in the consolidated statements of financial condition during the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 .

	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2021		2020
	(In thousands)
Balance at beginning of period	$	218	$	985
Net (charge-offs/terminations) recoveries		( 23 )		( 79 )
Balance at end of period	$	195	$	906

The estimated losses to be absorbed under the credit recourse arrangements were recorded as a liability when the credit recourse was assumed and are updated on a quarterly basis. The expected loss, which represents the amount expected to be lost on a given loan, considers the probability of default and loss severity. The probability of default represents the probability that a loan in good standing would become 120 days delinquent, in which case OFG is obligated to repurchase the loan.

If a borrower defaults, pursuant to the credit recourse provided, OFG is required to repurchase the loan or reimburse the third-party investor for the incurred loss. The maximum potential amount of future payments that OFG would be required to make under the recourse arrangements is equivalent to the total outstanding balance of the residential mortgage loans serviced with recourse and interest, if applicable. During the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, OFG repurchased $ 980 thousand and $ 479 thousand, respectively, in mortgage loans subject to credit recourse. If a borrower defaults, OFG has rights to the underlying collateral securing the mortgage loan. OFG suffers losses on these mortgage loans when the proceeds from a foreclosure sale of the collateral property are less than the outstanding principal balance of the loan, any uncollected interest advanced, and the costs of holding and disposing the related property. At March 31, 2021, OFG’s liability for estimated credit losses related to loans sold with credit recourse amounted to $ 195 thousand (December 31, 2020– $ 218 thousand).

When OFG sells or securitizes mortgage loans, it generally makes customary representations and warranties regarding the characteristics of the loans sold. OFG's mortgage operations division groups conforming mortgage loans into pools which are exchanged for FNMA and GNMA mortgage-backed securities, which are generally sold to private investors, or are sold directly to FNMA or other private investors for cash. As required under such mortgage backed securities programs, quality review procedures are performed by OFG to ensure that asset guideline qualifications are met. To the extent the loans do not meet specified characteristics, OFG may be required to repurchase such loans or indemnify for losses and bear any subsequent loss related to the loans. During the quarters ended March 31, 2021 , OFG repurchased $ 12.6 million (March 31, 2020 – $ 8.4 million) of unpaid principal balance in mortgage loans , excluding mortgage loans subject to credit recourse provision referred above. At both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG had a $ 2.6 million liability for the estimated credit losses related to these loans.

During the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, OFG recognized $ 22 thousand in gains, and $ 14 thousand in losses, net of reserves, respectively, from the repurchase of residential mortgage loans sold subject to credit recourse, and $ 1.3 million and $ 405 thousand, respectively, in losses from the repurchase of residential mortgage loans as a result of breaches of customary representations and warranties.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

Servicing agreements relating to the mortgage-backed securities programs of FNMA and GNMA, and to mortgage loans sold or serviced to certain other investors, including the FHLMC, require OFG to advance funds to make scheduled payments of principal, interest, taxes and insurance, if such payments have not been received from the borrowers. At March 31, 2021 , OFG serviced $ 5.5 billion (December 31, 2020 - $ 5.4 billion) in mortgage loans for third parties. OFG generally recovers funds advanced pursuant to these arrangements from the mortgage owner, from liquidation proceeds when the mortgage loan is foreclosed or, in the case of FHA/VA loans, under the applicable FHA and VA insurance and guarantees programs. However, in the meantime, OFG must absorb the cost of the funds it advances during the time the advance is outstanding. OFG must also bear the costs of attempting to collect on delinquent and defaulted mortgage loans. In addition, if a defaulted loan is not cured, the mortgage loan would be canceled as part of the foreclosure proceedings and OFG would not receive any future servicing income with respect to that loan. At March 31, 2021 , the outstanding balance of funds advanced by OFG under such mortgage loan servicing agreements was approximately $ 19.1 million (December 31, 2020 - $ 20.7 million). To the extent the mortgage loans underlying OFG's servicing portfolio experience increased delinquencies, OFG would be required to dedicate additional cash resources to comply with its obligation to advance funds as well as incur additional administrative costs related to increases in collection efforts.

NOTE 20— COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Loan Commitments

In the normal course of business, OFG becomes a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby and commercial letters of credit, and financial guarantees. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The contract or notional amount of those instruments reflects the extent of OFG’s involvement in particular types of financial instruments.

OFG’s exposure to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, including commitments under credit card arrangements, and commercial letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amounts of those instruments, which do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. In addition, the measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are identified. OFG uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Credit-related financial instruments at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were as follows:

	March 31,		December 31,
	2021		2020
	(In thousands)
Commitments to extend credit	$	1,108,614	$	1,133,503
Commercial letters of credit		349		225

Commitments to extend credit represent 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. OFG evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by OFG upon the extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, commitments to extend credit consisted mainly of undisbursed available amounts on commercial lines of credit, construction loans, and revolving credit card arrangements. Since many of the unused commitments are expected to expire unused or be only partially used, the total amount of these unused commitments does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Commercial letters of credit are issued or confirmed to guarantee payment of customers’ payables or receivables in short-term international trade transactions. Generally, drafts will be drawn when the underlying transaction is consummated as intended. However, the short-term nature of this instrument serves to mitigate the risk associated with these contracts.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

The summary of instruments that are considered financial guarantees in accordance with the authoritative guidance related to guarantor’s accounting and disclosure requirements for guarantees, including indirect guarantees of indebtedness of others, at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, is as follows:

	March 31,		December 31,
	2021		2020
	(In thousands)
Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees	$	20,632	$	19,476
Loans sold with recourse		131,539		135,252

Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are written conditional commitments issued by OFG to guarantee the payment and/or performance of a customer to a third party (“beneficiary”). If the customer fails to comply with the agreement, the beneficiary may draw on the standby letter of credit or financial guarantee as a remedy. The amount of credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit in the event of non-performance is the face amount of the letter of credit or financial guarantee. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by OFG upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

On January 1, 2020, OFG adopted CECL, which requires the measurement of the allowance for credit losses to be based on management’s best estimate of expected credit losses inherent in all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. Upon adoption, OFG recognized an increase in the off-balance sheet allowance of $ 0.2 million with the corresponding decrease in retained earnings. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures corresponding to commitments to extend credit and stand by letters of credit amounted to $ 1.2 million and $ 1.1 million, respectively, and is included in other liabilities in the statement of financial condition.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG maintained other non-credit commitments amounting to $ 11.9 million and $ 9.0 million, respectively, primarily for the acquisition of other investments.

Contingencies

OFG and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of legal proceedings incidental to their business. In the ordinary course of business, OFG and its subsidiaries are also subject to governmental and regulatory examinations. Certain subsidiaries of OFG, including the Bank (and its subsidiary, OIB), Oriental Financial Services, and Oriental Insurance, are subject to regulation by various U.S., Puerto Rico and other regulators.

OFG seeks to resolve all arbitration, litigation and regulatory matters in the manner management believes is in the best interests of OFG and its shareholders, and contests allegations of liability or wrongdoing and, where applicable, the amount of damages or scope of any penalties or other relief sought as appropriate in each pending matter.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, OFG establishes an accrued liability when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. As a matter develops, OFG, in conjunction with any outside counsel handling the matter, evaluates on an ongoing basis whether such matter presents a loss contingency that is probable and estimable. Once the loss contingency is deemed to be both probable and estimable, OFG will establish an accrued liability and record a corresponding amount of expense. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, this accrued liability amounted to $ 7.8 million and $ 8.1 million, respectively. OFG continues to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the amount of the accrued liability that has been previously established.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

Subject to the accounting and disclosure framework under the provisions of ASC 450, it is the opinion of OFG’s management, based on current knowledge and after taking into account its current legal accruals, that the eventual outcome of all matters would not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated statements of financial condition of OFG. Nonetheless, given the substantial or indeterminate amounts sought in certain of these matters, and the inherent unpredictability of such matters, an adverse outcome in certain of these matters could, from time to time, have a material adverse effect on OFG’s consolidated results of operations or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods. OFG has evaluated all arbitration, litigation and regulatory matters where the likelihood of a potential loss is deemed reasonably possible. OFG has determined that the estimate of the reasonably possible loss is not significant.

NOTE 21 — OPERATING LEASES

Substantially all leases in which OFG is the lessee are comprised of real estate property for branches, ATM locations, and office space with terms extending through 2038. OFG’s leases do not contain residual value guarantees or material variable lease payments. All leases are classified as operating leases and are included on the consolidated statements of financial condition as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability. OFG leases to others certain space in its principal offices for terms extending through 2023; all are operating leases.

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a Q&A document on accounting for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The FASB staff noted that entities may elect to not evaluate whether certain concessions provided by lessors to mitigate the effects of Covid-19 on lessees are lease modifications. This option is intended to reduce the operational challenges of individually assessing every Covid-19 related lease concession to determine whether it results in having to apply Topic 842 lease modification guidance. This election is available only for concessions related to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic that do not result in a substantial increase in either the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the lessee. For entities that choose this election, they may account for the concession as if no changes to the lease contract were made. Under that accounting, a lessor would continue to recognize income. OFG has elected to apply the relief provided by the FASB not to evaluate individual contracts. OFG also elected not to apply the lease modification framework for concessions granted.

OFG, as lessor, leases and subleases real property to lessee tenants under operating leases. As of March 31, 2021, no material lease concessions have been granted to lessees. OFG, as lessee, also leases real estate property for branch locations, ATM locations, and office space. As of March 31, 2021, OFG has not requested any lease concessions.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, OFG decided to consolidate several branches as a result of the Scotiabank PR & USVI Acquisition and modified certain lease contracts. These contracts were evaluated under Topic 842 lease modification guidance and removed from books, as they were considered short-term at December 31, 2020.

NOTE 22 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

OFG follows the fair value measurement framework under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) .

Fair Value Measurement

The fair value measurement framework defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This framework also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Money market investments

The fair value of money market investments is based on the carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated statements of financial condition as these are reasonable estimates of fair value given the short-term nature of the instruments.

Investment securities

The fair value of investment securities is based on valuations obtained from an independent pricing provider, ICE Data Pricing (formerly known as IDC). ICE is a well-recognized pricing company and an established leader in financial information. Such securities are classified as Level 1 or Level 2 depending on the basis for determining fair value. If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon externally developed models that use both observable and unobservable inputs depending on the market activity of the instrument, and such securities are classified as Level 3. At March 31, 2021 and 2020, OFG did not have investment securities classified as Level 3.

Derivative instruments

The fair value of the interest rate swaps is largely a function of the financial market’s expectations regarding the future direction of interest rates. Accordingly, current market values are not necessarily indicative of the future impact of derivative instruments on earnings. This will depend, for the most part, on the shape of the yield curve, the level of interest rates, as well as the expectations for rates in the future. The fair value of most of these derivative instruments is based on observable market parameters, which include discounting the instruments’ cash flows using the U.S. dollar LIBOR-based discount rates, and also applying yield curves that account for the industry sector and the credit rating of the counterparty and/or OFG. Certain other derivative instruments with limited market activity are valued using externally developed models that consider unobservable market parameters. Based on their valuation methodology, derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 or Level 3.

Servicing assets

Servicing assets do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. Servicing assets are priced using a discounted cash flow model. The valuation model considers servicing fees, portfolio characteristics, prepayment assumptions, delinquency rates, late charges, other ancillary revenues, cost to service and other economic factors. Due to the unobservable nature of certain valuation inputs, the servicing rights are classified as Level 3.

Foreclosed real estate

Foreclosed real estate includes real estate properties securing residential mortgage and commercial loans. The fair value of foreclosed real estate may be determined using an external appraisal, broker price option or an internal valuation. These foreclosed assets are classified as Level 3 given certain internal adjustments that may be made to external appraisals.

Other repossessed assets

Other repossessed assets include repossessed automobiles. The fair value of the repossessed automobiles may be determined using internal valuation and an external appraisal. These repossessed assets are classified as Level 3 given certain internal adjustments that may be made to external appraisals.

Information about Sensitivity to Changes in Significant Unobservable Inputs

Servicing assets – The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of OFG’s servicing assets are constant prepayment rates and discount rates. 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 offset the sensitivities. Mortgage banking activities, a component of total banking and financial service revenue in the consolidated statements of operations, include the changes from period to period in the fair value of the mortgage loan servicing rights, which may result from changes in the valuation model inputs or assumptions (principally reflecting changes in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions) and other changes, including changes due to collection/realization of expected cash flows.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The information about the estimated fair value of financial instruments required by GAAP is presented hereunder. The aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent management’s estimate of the underlying value of OFG.

The estimated fair value is subjective in nature, involves uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could affect these fair value estimates. The fair value estimates do not take into consideration the value of future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments. Other significant tangible and intangible assets that are not considered financial instruments are the value of long-term customer relationships of retail deposits, and premises and equipment.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of significant financial instruments at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

• Cash and cash equivalents (including money market investments and time deposits with other banks), restricted cash, accrued interest receivable, accounts receivable and other assets, accrued expenses and other liabilities, and other borrowings have been valued at the carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated statements of financial condition as these are reasonable estimates of fair value given the short-term nature of the instruments.

• Investments in FHLB-NY stock are valued at their redemption value.

• The fair value of investment securities, including trading securities and other investments, is based on quoted market prices, when available or prices provided from contracted pricing providers, or market prices provided by recognized broker-dealers. If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon externally developed models that use both observable and unobservable inputs depending on the market activity of the instrument.

• The fair value of servicing asset is estimated by using a cash flow valuation model which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows, taking into consideration actual and expected loan prepayment rates, discount rates, servicing costs, and other economic factors, which are determined based on current market conditions.

• The fair values of the derivative instruments, which include interest rate swaps and forward-settlement swaps, are based on the net discounted value of the contractual projected cash flows of both the pay-fixed receive-variable legs of the contracts. The projected cash flows are based on the forward yield curve and discounted using current estimated market rates.

• The fair value of the loan portfolio (including loans held-for-sale and non-performing loans) is based on the exit market price, which is estimated by segregating by type, such as mortgage, commercial, consumer, auto and leasing. Each loan segment is further segmented into fixed and adjustable interest rates. The fair value is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows, adjusted for prepayment estimates (voluntary and involuntary), if any, using estimated current market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan.

• The fair value of demand deposits and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of the contractual cash flows, using estimated current market discount rates for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

• The fair value of long-term borrowings, which include securities sold under agreements to repurchase, advances from FHLB, and subordinated capital notes is based on the discounted value of the contractual cash flows using current estimated market discount rates for borrowings with similar terms, remaining maturities and put dates.

OFG BANCORP

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

OFG recognizes the revenue from banking services, wealth management and mortgage banking based on the nature and timing of revenue streams from contracts with customer:

Banking Service Revenues

Electronic banking fees are credit and debit card processing services, use of the Bank’s ATMs by non-customers, debit card interchange income and service charges on deposit accounts. Revenue is recorded once the contracted service has been provided.

Service charges on checking and saving accounts as consumer periodic maintenance revenue is recognized once the service is rendered, while overdraft and late charges revenue are recorded after the contracted service has been provided.

Other income as credit life commissions, servicing and other loan fees, international fees, and miscellaneous fees recognized as banking services revenue are out of the scope of ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers .

Wealth Management Revenue

Insurance income from commissions and sale of annuities are recorded once the sale has been completed.

Brokers fees consist of two categories:

 Sales commissions generated by advisors for their clients’ purchases and sales of securities and other investment products, which are collected once the stand-alone transactions are completed at trade date or as earned, and managed account fees which are fees charged to advisors’ clients’ accounts on the Company corporate advisory platform. These revenues do not cover future services, as a result there is no need to allocate the amount received to any other service.

 Fees for providing distribution services related to mutual funds, net of compensation paid to a service provider who provides such services, as well as trailer fees (also known as 12b-1 fees). These fees are considered variable and are recognized over time, as the uncertainty of the fees to be received is resolved as the net asset value of the mutual fund is determined and investor activity occurs. Fees do not cover future services, as a result there is no need to allocate the amount received to any other service.

Retirement plan and administration fees are revenues related to the payment received from the clients of OPC for assistance with the planning, design and administration of retirement plans, acting as third-party administrator for such plans, and daily record keeping services of retirement plans. Fees are collected once the stand-alone transaction was completed at trade date. Fees do not cover future services, as a result there is no need to allocate the amount received to any other service.

Trust fees are revenues related to fiduciary services provided to 401K retirement plans, a unit investment trust, and retirement plans, which include investment management, payment of distributions, if any, safekeeping, custodial services of plan assets, servicing of Trust officers, on-going due diligence of the Trust, and recordkeeping of transactions. Fees are billed based on services contracted. Negotiated fees are detailed in the contract. Fees collected in advance, are amortized over the term of the contract. Fees are collected on a monthly basis once the administrative service has been completed. Monthly fee does not include future services.

Investment banking fees as compensation fees are out of the scope of ASC 606.

Mortgage Banking Activities

Mortgage banking activities as servicing fees, gain on sale of mortgage loans valuation and other are out of the scope of ASC 606.

NOTE 24 – BUSINESS SEGMENTS

OFG segregates its businesses into the following major reportable segments of business: Banking, Wealth Management, and Treasury. Management established the reportable segments based on the internal reporting used to evaluate performance and to assess where to allocate resources. Other factors such as OFG’s organization, nature of its products, distribution channels and economic characteristics of the products were also considered in the determination of the reportable segments. OFG measures the performance of these reportable segments based on pre-established goals of different financial parameters such as net income, net interest income, loan production, and fees generated. OFG’s methodology for allocating non-interest expenses among segments is based on several factors such as revenue, employee headcount, occupied space, dedicated services or time, among others. These factors are reviewed on a periodical basis and may change if the conditions warrant.

Banking includes the Bank’s branches and traditional banking products such as deposits and commercial, consumer and mortgage loans. Mortgage banking activities are carried out by the Bank’s mortgage banking division, whose principal activity is to originate mortgage loans for OFG’s own portfolio. As part of its mortgage banking activities, OFG may sell loans directly into the secondary market or securitize conforming loans into mortgage-backed securities.

Wealth Management is comprised of the Bank’s trust division, Oriental Financial Services, Oriental Insurance, and OPC. The core operations of this segment are financial planning, money management and investment banking, brokerage services, insurance sales activity, corporate and individual trust and retirement services, as well as retirement plan administration services.

The Treasury segment encompasses all of OFG’s asset/liability management activities, such as purchases and sales of investment securities, interest rate risk management, derivatives, and borrowings. Intersegment sales and transfers, if any, are accounted for as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current market prices.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion of OFG’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the “Selected Financial Data” and OFG’s consolidated financial statements and related notes. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Risk Factors,” and "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 and set forth in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “2020 Form 10-K”), for discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.

Other factors not identified above, including those described under the headings in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31 may also cause actual results to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements.

OFG is a publicly-owned financial holding company that provides a full range of banking and financial services through its subsidiaries, including commercial, consumer, auto and mortgage lending; checking and savings accounts; financial planning, insurance and securities brokerage services; and corporate and individual trust and retirement services. OFG operates through three major business segments: Banking, Wealth Management, and Treasury, and distinguishes itself based on quality service. OFG has 54 branches in Puerto Rico, 2 branches in the USVI, a subsidiary in Boca Raton, Florida, and a non-bank operating subsidiary in Cornelius, North Carolina. OFG’s long-term goal is to strengthen its banking and financial services franchise by expanding its lending businesses, increasing the level of integration in the marketing and delivery of banking and financial services, maintaining effective asset-liability management, growing non-interest revenue from banking and financial services, and improving operating efficiencies.

OFG’s diversified mix of businesses and products generates both the interest income traditionally associated with a banking institution and non-interest income traditionally associated with a financial services institution (generated by such businesses as securities brokerage, fiduciary services, investment banking, insurance agency, and retirement plan administration). Although all of these businesses, to varying degrees, are affected by interest rate and financial market fluctuations and other external factors, OFG’s commitment is to continue producing a balanced and growing revenue stream.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Covid-19 Pandemic 2020

In the first quarter of 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of Covid-19 a pandemic. OFG has been, and may continue to be, impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Puerto Rico’s economy is improving as more people get vaccinated and restrictive measures have eased. However, uncertainty remains about the duration of the pandemic and the timing and strength of the global economy’s recovery. To address the economic impact in the U.S., in March and April 2020, the President signed into law four economic stimulus packages to provide relief to businesses and individuals, including the $2.2 trillion Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). Among other measures, the CARES Act provided $349 billion funding for the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”), which provides loans to small businesses to keep their employees on payroll and make other eligible payments. The original funding for the PPP was fully allocated by mid-April 2020, with additional funding made available on April 24, 2020 under the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act. On December 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, a $900 billion coronavirus relief bill as part of a larger $1.4 trillion omnibus spending and appropriations bill. This bill clarifies certain aspects of the first round of PPP and reopens another round of PPP funding for the hardest hit businesses. It also extends until March 31, 2021 the opportunity for employers to seek tax credits for wages paid for Families First Coronavirus Response Act qualifying emergency paid sick leave or emergency paid Family and Medical Leave Act. The new Coronavirus Relief Act also impacts the real estate sector through new rounds of rental assistance and an extension of the federal eviction moratorium. On March 11, 2021, the President signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, a $1.9 trillion coronavirus rescue package designed to facilitate the United States’ recovery from the devastating economic and health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The package includes direct stimulus payments of $1,400, extends unemployment compensation, continues eviction and foreclosure moratoriums, and increases the Child Tax Credit while making it fully refundable. It provides funds for state and local governments to help compensate for lost tax revenues, money for schools from kindergarten through eighth grade to safely reopen amid the pandemic and subsidizes Covid-19 testing and vaccination programs. The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) will receive an additional $7.25 billion, and more nonprofits will now be allowed to apply for forgivable loans to help cover payroll and other operating expenses. The PPP's application

deadline was extended to May 31, 2021. This bill provides an estimated funding between $10 to $12 billion for Puerto Rico in the following provisions: state and local aids, K-12 public schools, disaster relief fund, nutrition assistance, higher education emergency relief fund, Child Tax Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit, stimulus payments, federal pandemic unemployment compensation plus up, child care, emergency rental, mortgage and utilities assistance, urban transit funding, low income home energy assistance program, Coronavirus capital projects fund, airport improvement program, broadband (e-rate), rural and paratransit funding, and home delivered and congregate food.

On April 9, 2020, the Federal Reserve Board provided additional funding sources for small and mid-sized businesses as well as for state and local governments as they work through cash flow stresses caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board has taken other steps to provide fiscal and monetary stimuli, including reducing the federal funds rate and the interest rate on the Federal Reserve’s discount window and implementing programs to promote liquidity in certain securities markets. The Federal Reserve Board, along with other federal banking regulators, has also issued interagency guidance to financial institutions that are working with borrowers affected by Covid-19.

As the pandemic evolves, we continue to evaluate protocols and processes in place to execute our business continuity plans and help promote the health and safety of our employees and clients. We also continue to support the communities we serve by engaging in various initiatives to help those affected by Covid-19. OFG has implemented the following protocols and processes:

 Enhancing workplace safety by providing protective gear, increased sanitation and enforcing social distancing.

 Operating our businesses from remote locations, leveraging our business continuity plans and capabilities that include having approximately 50% of employees work from home, and other employees operating using pre-planned contingency strategies for critical site-based operations. These capabilities have allowed us to continue to service our clients. We will continue to manage the increased operational risk related to the execution of our business continuity plans in accordance with our Risk Framework and Operational Risk Management Program. We also have increased investments to create secure hybrid (work from office/work from home) infrastructure.

 Expanding health insurance and benefits for employees, including coverage of the Covid-19 tests and related telemedicine, opening insurance networks of laboratories, pharmacies and doctors to ease employee access, and providing safety kits to all employees for personal or family use. Enabled vaccinations for more than 40% of our staff.

 Providing uninterrupted and excellent levels of service, achieved through several channels, including, phone, digital, branch appointments, ATMs, interactive ATMs, and drive-thru tellers, while maintaining employee and customer safety and social distancing. OFG was the first bank in Puerto Rico and the USVI to establish consumer and business relief programs accessible online to clients affected by Covid-19 and scheduling appointments at most branches through its webpage.

 Offering assistance to our commercial, consumer and small business clients affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, which included payment deferrals, doubling the amount that can be withdrawn or transferred via online banking and mobile check deposit, participation in the CARES Act and Federal Reserve lending programs for businesses, including the SBA PPP, and continuing to provide access to the important financial services on which our clients rely.

 Launching a digital portal, to make it fast and easy for our commercial clients to apply for PPP loan forgiveness.

In connection with reviewing our financial condition in light of the pandemic, we evaluated our assets, including goodwill and other intangibles, for potential impairment. Based upon our review as of March 31, 2021, no impairments have been recorded and there have been no significant changes in fair value hierarchy classifications. We have also elected to delay for two years the phase-in of the capital impact from our adoption of the new accounting standard on credit losses. For more information, see Regulatory Capital section in the MD&A.

On April 7, 2020, the federal banking agencies along with the National Credit Union Administration, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, in consultation with the state financial regulators, issued an interagency statement revising a March 22, 2020 interagency statement on loan modifications and the reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by the Covid-19 pandemic (the “Interagency Statement”). The Interagency Statement reconfirmed that efforts to work with borrowers where the loans are prudently underwritten, and not considered past due or carried on nonaccrual status, should not result in the loans automatically being considered modified in a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) for accounting and financial reporting purposes, or for purposes of their respective risk-based capital rules, which would otherwise require financial institutions subject to the capital rules to hold more capital. The Interagency Statement also clarified the interaction between its previous guidance and Section 4013 of the CARES Act, which provides certain financial institutions with the option to suspend the application of accounting guidance for TDRs for a limited period of time for loan modifications made to address the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

OFG granted various forms of assistance to customers and clients impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, including payment deferrals. The majority of OFG’s Covid-19 related loan modifications have not been considered TDRs as:


•	they represent short-term or other insignificant modifications, whether under OFG’s regular loan modification assessments or the Interagency Statement guidance, or

•	OFG has elected to apply the option to suspend the application of accounting guidance for TDRs as provided under Section 4013 of the CARES Act.

To the extent that certain modifications do not meet any of the above criteria, OFG accounts for them as TDRs.

As of March 31, 2021, OFG had processed Covid-19 payment deferrals for more than 47,000 retail customers for $2.2 billion dollars. For our commercial customers, we had processed relief on $642.6 million dollars in loans. Deferrals have decreased from 30% of total loans in the second quarter of 2020 to 1% of total loans in the first quarter of 2021. As of March 31, 2021, OFG had loans subject to Covid-19 payment deferrals as follows:

	Covid-19 Moratoriums				% of Total Population
	Amount		Count		% of Total Population
	(Dollars in thousands)
Mortgage	$	18,654		186		1%
Commercial		63,076		15		3%
Total	$	81,730		201		1%

Mortgage loans in the payment deferral program above consist of FHA and VA insured mortgage loans. Most commercial loans represent well-capitalized customers in the hospitality industry.

Additionally, OFG is a lender for the SBA PPP, a CARES Act program, and other SBA, Federal Reserve Board or United States Treasury programs that have been created in response to the pandemic and may be a lender for programs created in the future. These programs are new and their effects on the Company’s business are uncertain. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, OFG approved 2,638 PPP loans amounting to $126.3 million.

Although the macroeconomic outlook for the first quarter of 2021 has improved from reduced Covid-19 related government restrictions on economic activity, combined with growing liquidity from the federal stimulus programs Puerto Rico is receiving related to the recovery from hurricane Maria in 2017, the early 2020 earthquakes, and now the Covid-19 pandemic, the future direct and indirect impact of Covid-19 on our businesses, results of operations and financial condition remain uncertain. Should current economic conditions persist or deteriorate, this macroeconomic environment may have an adverse effect on our businesses, results of operations and financial condition. For more information on how the risks related to the Covid-19 pandemic may adversely affect our businesses, results of operations and financial condition, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, of our 2020 Form 10-K.

London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”)

On July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates the LIBOR, publicly announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. In March 2021, the FCA, which regulates LIBOR, announced the dates for the cessation of all LIBOR benchmark settings currently published by the ICE Benchmark Administration. The FCA confirmed that publication of all Euro and Swiss Franc LIBOR settings and most British Pound Sterling and Japanese Yen LIBOR settings will cease or become no longer representative of the underlying market the rates seek to measure (i.e., non-representative) immediately after December 31, 2021, and most U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will become non-representative immediately after June 30, 2023. It is expected that a transition away from the widespread use of LIBOR to alternative rates will occur over the course of the next several years.

OFG’s LIBOR exposure is mainly concentrated within its commercial loan portfolio, representing 8% of total loans held for investment at March 31, 2021. OFG has identified its LIBOR-based contracts that will be impacted by the cessation of LIBOR and is incorporating fallback language in negotiated contracts and incorporating a non-LIBOR reference rate and/or fallback language in new contracts to prepare for these changes. Furthermore, management has established a LIBOR transition team to lead OFG in the execution of its project plan. Nevertheless, uncertainty remains as to the nature of replacement choices potential changes or other reforms. For more information on the expected replacement of LIBOR, see Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2020 Form 10-K.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses in the consolidated financial statements. Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which we use management judgment and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our financial statements. We provide a summary of our significant accounting policies in “Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our 2020 Form 10-K.

In the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section of our 2020 Form 10-K, we identified several accounting policies as critical, including the following, because they require significant judgments and assumptions about highly complex and inherently uncertain matters and the use of reasonably different estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our reported results of operations or financial condition:

 Business Combinations

 Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

 Acquisition Accounting for Loans

We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changing conditions. There have been no material changes in the methods used to formulate these critical accounting estimates from those discussed in our 2020 Form 10-K.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

First quarter 2021 results reflected strong core performance based on the continued success of OFG’s strategies focusing on agility and service. Our results also reflected the federal stimulus, increased liquidity, and an improving Puerto Rico economy as more people get vaccinated.

OFG benefitted from strong new loan generation and deposit growth, significantly reduced cost of funds, a more efficient operating structure, and the release of some COVID-related loan reserves.

OFG followed up last year’s efforts to help small businesses and their employees with another $126 million in Paycheck Protection Program loans. Our proprietary PPP portal enables clients to apply for funds, receive them, and then apply for forgiveness, quickly and easily, and all online.

Performance metrics improved with a loan yield of 6.61%, return on average assets of 1.21%, return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity of 13.11%, and an efficiency ratio of 60.84%. Credit metrics also improved as net charge-offs, delinquency rates, and loan deferrals all fell.

OFG’s capital strategies are working well. In January, we increased the regular quarterly cash dividend 14%. In March, we announced the redemption of all three outstanding series of preferred stock, which will improve our capital structure, enable us to effectively deploy excess liquidity, and increase net income available to shareholders.

As of March 31, 2021, OFG more than earned back all the tangible book value per common share dilution involved in the Scotiabank acquisition significantly ahead of schedule.

As Puerto Rico and USVI continue experiencing stronger signs of economic revival, at OFG we are strategically well-positioned to benefit from and play a major part in this long-awaited development.

First quarter of 2021:

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is a function of the difference between rates earned on OFG’s interest-earning assets and rates paid on its interest-bearing liabilities (interest rate spread) and the relative amounts of its interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (interest rate margin). OFG constantly monitors the composition and re-pricing of its assets and liabilities to maintain its net interest income at adequate levels.

Comparison of the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

Net interest income of $98.2 million decreased $6.9 million from $105.1 million. Interest rate spread decreased 67 basis points to 4.21% from 4.88% and net interest margin decreased 68 basis points to 4.26% from 4.94%. These decreases are mainly due to the net effect of a decrease of 100 basis points in the average yield of total interest-earning assets and a decrease of 33 basis points in the total average cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

Net interest income was positively impacted by:

 Lower interest expense from deposits by $4.6 million, mainly related to pricing changes implemented during fourth quarter of 2020 and to the maturity and cancelation of higher cost time and brokered deposits; and

 Lower interest expense in borrowings by $1.2 million, reflecting the maturity and early extinguishment of repurchase agreements during the year 2020.

Net interest income was adversely impacted by:

 Lower interest income from loans by $8.2 million, reflecting lower balances in the mortgage and consumer portfolios, and the effect of Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts on variable rate commercial loans, partially offset by interest income of $1.6 million from unamortized yield for $92 million of forgiven PPP loans; and

 Lower interest income from interest bearing cash and investment securities by $4.5 million, mainly impacted by the Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts.

Total non-interest income, net	$	30,407	$	31,450	-3.3%

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income is affected by the amount of the Bank’s trust department assets under management, transactions generated by clients’ financial assets serviced by OFG’s the securities broker-dealer and insurance agency subsidiaries, the level of mortgage banking activities, fees generated from loans and deposit accounts, and gains on sales of assets.

Comparison of quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

OFG recorded non-interest income, net, in the amount of $30.4 million, compared to $31.5 million, a decrease of 3.3%, or $1.0 million. The decrease in non-interest income was mainly due to:

 A $4.7 million gain recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 on the sales of mortgage-backed securities amounting to $316.0 million. There were no sales of securities during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

The decrease in non-interest income was offset by:

 An increase of $2.3 million in mortgage-banking activities, as quarterly mortgage-servicing rights valuation and gains on loans sold increased by $1.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively;

 An increase of $875 thousand in other non-interest income, mainly related to serviced loans receivable recoveries of $610 thousand, charged-off during the Scotiabank PR & USVI Acquisition; and

 An increase of $780 thousand in banking service revenues, mainly from higher transaction volume in electronic banking.

Non-Interest Expenses

Comparison of quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

Non-interest expense was $77.7 million, representing a decrease of 11.1%, or $9.7 million, compared to $87.3 million.

Non-interest expenses were positively impacted by:

 Lower compensation and employee benefits by $2.9 million, reflecting lower employee count and a $1.3 million Covid-19 employee tax credit;

 Decrease in foreclosed real estate and other repossessed assets expenses by $1.6 million reflecting higher valuation adjustments and higher gains on sales;

 Decrease in electronic banking charges by $1.4 million driven by lower credit card merchant fees;

 Decrease in professional and service fees by $1.3 million from lower supervisory examination fees and audit fees as a result of Scotiabank’s system conversions in 2020; and

 Lower insurance expenses by $1.0 million, mainly related to a decrease in the FDIC Deposit Insurance Assessment (SAIF).

The efficiency ratio improved to 60.84% from 66.49%. The efficiency ratio measures how much of OFG’s revenues is used to pay operating expenses. OFG computes its efficiency ratio by dividing non-interest expenses by the sum of its net interest income and

non-interest income, but excluding gains on the sale of investment securities, derivatives gains or losses, other gains and losses, and other income that may be considered volatile in nature. Management believes that the exclusion of those items permits consistent comparability. Amounts presented as part of non-interest income that are excluded from the efficiency ratio computation for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 amounted to $955 thousand and $5.2 million, respectively.

Provision for Credit Losses

Comparison of quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

Based on an analysis of the credit quality and the composition of OFG’s loan portfolio, management determined that the provision for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was adequate to maintain the allowance for credit losses at an appropriate level to provide for expected credit losses based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risks.

Provision for credit losses decreased $40.8 million from $48.5 million to $6.3 million. The prior year quarter provision included a $34.1 million provision to incorporate changes in the macro-economic scenario and qualitative adjustments as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Current quarter provision included a $3.7 million release of last year’s Covid-19 related loan reserves and $3.5 million for a commercial loan in workout prior to the pandemic.

Income Taxes

Comparison of quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

OFG’s effective tax rate (ETR) was 31.9% in 2021 compared to 14.2% in 2020. The increase in ETR is mainly related to an increase in the projected proportion of taxable income to total income as per management’s projections for the year 2021.

Business Segments

OFG segregates its businesses into the following major reportable segments: Banking, Wealth Management, and Treasury. Management established the reportable segments based on the internal reporting used to evaluate performance and to assess where to allocate resources. Other factors such as OFG’s organization, nature of its products, distribution channels and economic characteristics of its services were also considered in the determination of the reportable segments. OFG measures the performance of these reportable segments based on pre-established goals of different financial parameters such as net income, net interest income, loan production, and fees generated. OFG’s methodology for allocating non-interest expenses among segments is based on several factors such as revenue, employee headcount, occupied space, dedicated services or time, among others. Following are the results of operations and the selected financial information by operating segment for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Comparison of quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

Banking

OFG's banking segment net income before taxes increased $45.2 million from a loss of $6.2 million to income of $39.1 million, mainly reflecting:

 Decrease in provision for credit losses by $40.5 million, mainly due to prior year quarter $34.1 million provision to incorporate changes in the macro-economic scenario and qualitative adjustments as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and the current quarter $3.7 million provision release of last year’s Covid-19 related loan reserves, partially offset by a $3.5 million provision for a commercial loan in workout prior to the pandemic;

 Decrease in non-interest expenses by $8.7 million mainly in compensation and employee benefits, professional and service fees, foreclosed real estate and other repossessed assets expenses, electronic banking charges, and insurance expenses.

Partially offset by:

Wealth Management

Wealth management segment revenue consists of commissions and fees from fiduciary activities, and securities brokerage and insurance activities. Net income before taxes from this segment increased $908 thousand, mainly from a decrease in claims and settlements accruals as a result of claim settled in favor of OFG during the quarter that was previously reserved.

Treasury

Treasury segment net income before taxes decreased by $3.6 million, mainly reflecting:

 A gain of $4.7 million on the sales of securities recorded in prior year quarter. There were no sales of securities during the quarter ended March 31, 2021; and

 Lower interest income from interest bearing cash and investment securities by $1.6 million, mainly impacted by the Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts.

Partially offset by:

 Lower interest expenses in borrowings by $2.1 million, reflecting the maturity and early extinguishment of repurchase agreements during 2020.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Assets Owned

At March 31, 2021, OFG’s total assets amounted to $10.153 billion representing an increase of 3.3%, when compared to $9.826 billion at December 31, 2020. Cash and due from banks and investments portfolios increased by $254.3 million and $152.9 million, respectively, while loans decreased by $69.2 million.

Cash and cash equivalents of $2.409 billion increased by $253.8 million primarily because of the influx of both commercial and retail deposits from increased liquidity in the economy as a result of government stimulus programs.

OFG’s loan portfolio is comprised of residential mortgage loans, commercial loans collateralized by mortgages on real estate, other commercial and industrial loans, consumer loans, and auto loans. At March 31, 2021, OFG’s loan portfolio decreased by 1.1% mainly due to loan portfolios run-off. PCD loan portfolio, excluding allowance for credits losses, decreased $69.0 million to $1.703 billion at March 31, 2021. This decrease was offset by loan production in the first quarter of 2021 of $527.6 million, compared to $280.8 million in the year ago quarter, driven by mortgage and commercial lending, including $126.3 million PPP loan originations, which reflected an increase in our Non-PCD portfolio of $4.5 million, excluding allowance for credits losses, when compared to $4.890 billion at December 31, 2020.

Financial Assets Managed

OFG’s financial assets include those managed by OFG’s trust division, retirement plan administration subsidiary, and assets gathered by its broker-dealer and insurance subsidiaries. OFG’s trust division offers various types of individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”) and manages 401(k) and Keogh retirement plans and custodian and corporate trust accounts, while the retirement plan administration subsidiary manages private retirement plans. At March 31, 2021, the total assets managed by OFG’s trust division and retirement plan administration subsidiary amounted to $3.556 billion, compared to $3.476 billion at December 31, 2020. OFG’s broker-dealer subsidiary offers a wide array of investment alternatives to its client base, such as tax-advantaged fixed income securities, mutual funds, stocks, bonds and money management wrap-fee programs. At March 31, 2021, total assets gathered by the broker-dealer and insurance agency subsidiaries from their customers’ investment accounts amounted to $2.553 billion, compared to $2.474 billion at December 31, 2020. This increase is mainly due to increased liquidity and improvement in the local economy as a result of government incentives in light of Covid-19 pandemic.

Goodwill

OFG’s goodwill is not amortized to expense but is tested at least annually for impairment. A quantitative annual impairment test is not required if, based on a qualitative analysis, OFG determines that the existence of events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired. OFG completes its annual goodwill impairment test as of October 31 of each year. OFG tests for impairment by first allocating its goodwill and other assets and liabilities, as necessary, to defined reporting units. A fair value is then determined for each reporting unit. If the fair values of the reporting units exceed their book values, no write-down of the recorded goodwill is necessary.

In connection with reviewing our financial condition given the pandemic, we evaluated our assets, including goodwill and other intangibles, for potential impairment. Based upon our review as of March 31, 2021, no impairments have been recorded.

As of March 31, 2021, OFG had $86.1 million of goodwill allocated as follows: $84.1 million to the banking segment and $2.0 million to the wealth management segment. Please refer to Note 9 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets for more information on the annual goodwill impairment test.

Credit Risk Management

Allowance for Credit Losses

OFG maintains an allowance for credit losses at a level that management considers adequate to provide for probable losses based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risks. OFG’s allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) policy provides for a detailed quarterly analysis of expected credit losses.

On January 1, 2020, OFG adopted the new CECL accounting standard that requires the measurement of the allowance for credit losses to be based on management’s best estimate of future expected credit losses inherent in the Company’s relevant financial assets.

The allowance for credit losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 included a $34.1 million provision to incorporate changes in the macro-economic scenario and qualitative adjustments as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The allowance for credit losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 included a $3.7 million provision release of last year’s Covid-19 related loan reserves and a $3.5 million provision for a commercial loan in workout prior to the pandemic.

Tables 7 through 9 set forth an analysis of activity in the allowance for credit losses for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 and present selected credit loss statistics for March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. In addition, Table 5 sets forth the composition of the loan portfolio.

Please refer to the “Provision for Credit Losses” section in the MD&A for a more detailed analysis of provisions for credit losses.

Non-performing Assets

OFG’s non-performing assets include non-performing loans and foreclosed real estate (see Tables 10 and 11). At March 31, 2021, OFG had $135.9 million of non-accrual loans, including $35.9 million PCD loans accounted for under ASU 2016-13, compared to $147.9 million at December 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, loans whose terms have been extended and which are classified as troubled-debt restructurings that are not included in non-performing assets amounted to $100.0 million and $109.2 million, respectively.

Delinquent residential mortgage loans insured or guaranteed under applicable FHA and VA programs are classified as non-performing loans when they become 90 days or more past due, but are not placed in non-accrual status until they become 12 months or more past due, since they are insured loans. Therefore, these loans are included as non-performing loans but excluded from non-accrual loans.

At March 31, 2021, OFG’s non-performing assets decreased by 1.8% to $162.7 million (1.60% of total assets) from $165.6 million (1.69% of total assets) at December 31, 2020. Foreclosed real estate and other repossessed assets amounting to $15.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively, at March 31, 2021, increased from $11.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2020, recorded at fair value. OFG does not expect non-performing loans to result in significantly higher losses. At March 31, 2021, the allowance coverage ratio to non-performing loans was 140.0% (134.6% at December 31, 2020).

Upon adoption of CECL, OFG elected to maintain pools of loans that were previously accounted for under ASC 310-30 and will continue to account for these pools as a unit of account. As such, for PCD loans the determination of nonaccrual or accrual status is made at the pool level, not the individual loan level. Upon adoption of CECL, the allowance for credit losses was determined for each pool and added to the pool’s carrying amount to establish a new amortized cost basis. The difference between the unpaid principal balance of the pool and the new amortized cost basis is the non-credit premium or discount which will be amortized interest income over the remaining life of the pool. On a quarterly basis, management will monitor the composition and behavior of the pools to assess the ability for cash flow estimation and timing. If based on the analysis performed, the pool is classified as non-accrual the accretion/amortization of the non-credit (discount) premium will cease.

OFG follows a conservative residential mortgage lending policy, with more than 90% of its residential mortgage portfolio consisting of fixed-rate, fully amortizing, fully documented loans that do not have the level of risk associated with subprime loans offered by certain major U.S. mortgage loan originators. Furthermore, OFG has never been active in negative amortization loans or adjustable rate mortgage loans, including those with teaser rates.

The following items comprise non-performing loans held for investment, Non-PCD and PCDs:

Commercial loans — At March 31, 2021, OFG’s non-performing commercial loans amounted to $85.8 million (59.5 % of OFG’s non-performing loans), a 2.9% increase from $83.4 million at December 31, 2020 (54.8% of OFG’s non-performing loans). Non-PCD commercial loans are placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days or more past due and are written-down, if necessary, based on the specific evaluation of the underlying collateral, if any.

Residential mortgage loans —At March 31, 2021, OFG’s non-performing mortgage loans totaled $43.7 million (30.3% of OFG’s non-performing loans), a 1.7% increase from $43.0 million (28.3% of OFG’s non-performing loans) at December 31, 2020. Non-PCD residential mortgage loans are placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days or more past due and are written-down, if necessary, based on the specific evaluation of the collateral underlying the loan, except for FHA and VA insured mortgage loans which are placed in non-accrual when they become 12 months or more past due.

Consumer loans —At March 31, 2021, OFG’s non-performing consumer loans amounted to $2.9 million (2.0% of OFG’s non-performing loans), a 41.9% decrease from $5.0 million at December 31, 2020 (3.3% of OFG’s non-performing loans). Non-PCD consumer loans are placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past due and written-off when payments are delinquent 120 days in personal loans and 180 days in credit cards and personal lines of credit.

Auto loans and leases —At March 31, 2021, OFG’s non-performing auto loans and leases amounted to $11.8 million (8.2% of OFG’s total non-performing loans), a decrease of 43.0% from $20.8 million at December 31, 2020 (13.6% of OFG’s total non-performing loans). Non-PCD auto loans and leases are placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past due, partially written-off to collateral value when payments are delinquent 120 days, and fully written-off when payments are delinquent 180 days.

OFG has two mortgage loan modification programs. These are the Loss Mitigation Program and the Non-Conforming Mortgage Loan Program. Both programs are intended to help responsible homeowners to remain in their homes and avoid foreclosure, while also reducing OFG’s losses on non-performing mortgage loans.

The Loss Mitigation Program helps mortgage borrowers who are or will become financially unable to meet the current or scheduled mortgage payments. Loans that qualify under this program are those guaranteed by FHA, VA, RURAL, PRHFA, conventional loans guaranteed by Mortgage Guaranty Insurance Corporation (MGIC), conventional loans sold to FNMA and FHLMC, and conventional loans retained by OFG. The program offers diversified alternatives such as regular or reduced payment plans, payment moratorium, mortgage loan modification, partial claims (only FHA), short sale, and deed in lieu of foreclosure.

The Non-Conforming Mortgage Loan Program is for non-conforming mortgages, including balloon payment, interest only/interest first, variable interest rate, adjustable interest rate and other qualified loans. Non-conforming mortgage loan portfolios are segregated into the following categories: performing loans that meet secondary market requirement and are refinanced under the credit underwriting guidelines of FHA/VA/FNMA/ FHLMC, and performing loans not meeting secondary market guidelines processed pursuant OFG’s current credit and underwriting guidelines. OFG achieved an affordable and sustainable monthly payment by taking specific, sequential, and necessary steps such as reducing the interest rate, extending the loan term, capitalizing arrearages, deferring the payment of principal or, if the borrower qualifies, refinancing the loan.

In order to apply for any of our loan modification programs, if the borrower is active in Chapter 13 bankruptcy, it must request an authorization from the bankruptcy trustee to allow for the loan modification. Borrowers with discharged Chapter 7 bankruptcies may also apply. Loans in these programs are evaluated by designated underwriters for troubled-debt restructuring classification if OFG grants a concession for legal or economic reasons due to the debtor’s financial difficulties.

(a) CECL replaces the concept of purchased credit impaired loans (PCI assets) with the concept of purchased financial assets with credit deterioration (PCD assets). An entity records a PCD asset at the purchase price plus the allowance for credit losses expected at the time of acquisition. Under this method, there is no credit loss expense affecting net income on acquisition. Changes in estimates of expected credit losses after acquisition are recognized as credit loss expense (or reversal of credit loss expense) in subsequent periods as they arise.

Liabilities and Funding Sources

As shown in Table 12 above, at March 31, 2021, OFG’s total liabilities were $9.045 billion, 3.5% more than the $8.740 billion reported at December 31, 2020. Deposits and borrowings, OFG’s funding sources, amounted to $8.858 billion at March 31, 2021 versus $8.518 billion at December 31, 2020, a 4.0% increase, mainly from higher core deposits by $355.3 million, while time deposits, brokered deposits and borrowings decreased by $139.0 million, $14.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

At March 31, 2021, deposits represented 99% and borrowings represented 1% of interest-bearing liabilities. At March 31, 2021, deposits, the largest category of OFG’s interest-bearing liabilities, were $8.757 billion, an increase of 4.1% from $8.416 billion at December 31, 2020, reflecting higher commercial deposits from existing and new clients and higher retail deposits as a result of increased liquidity in the economy.

Borrowings consist mainly of FHLB-NY advances and subordinated capital notes. The overall declines in time deposits, brokered deposits and borrowings are part of the strategy to replace higher cost funding with lower cost core deposits.

Stockholders’ Equity

At March 31, 2021, OFG’s total stockholders’ equity was $1.108 billion, a 2.1% increase when compared to $1.086 billion at December 31, 2020. This increase in stockholders’ equity reflects increases in legal surplus of $2.9 million, in retained earnings of $22.1 million, in treasury stock of $2.0 million and in additional paid-in capital of $283 thousand offset by, a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $4.8 million. Book value per share was $19.90 at March 31, 2021 compared to $19.54 at December 31, 2020.

From December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021, tangible common equity to tangible total assets decreased from 9.00% to 8.95%, leverage capital ratio increased from 10.30% to 10.48%, common equity tier 1 capital ratio increased from 13.08% to 13.56%, tier 1 risk-based capital ratio increased from 14.78% to 15.28%, and total risk-based capital ratio increased from 16.04% to 16.54%.

Regulatory Capital

OFG and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC. The current risk-based capital standards applicable to OFG and the Bank (“Basel III capital rules”), which have been effective since January 1, 2015, are based on the final capital framework for strengthening international capital standards, known as Basel III, of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. As of March 31, 2021, the capital ratios of OFG and the Bank continue to exceed the minimum requirements for being “well-capitalized” under the Basel III capital rules.

On January 1, 2020, the Company implemented CECL using the modified retrospective approach. As a result, a $39.2 million allowance for credit losses was recorded for Non-PCD loans and $0.2 million for unused commitments with the corresponding adjustment reducing retained earnings, net of a $13.9 million deferred tax effect. For more information, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements. On March 27, 2020, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, U.S. banking regulators issued an interim final rule that the Company adopted to delay for two years the initial adoption impact of CECL on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period to phase out the aggregate amount of the capital benefit provided during 2020 and 2021 (i.e., a five-year transition period). During the two-year delay, OFG will add back to common equity tier 1 (“CET1”) capital 100% of the initial adoption impact of CECL plus 25% of the cumulative quarterly changes in the allowance for credit losses (i.e., quarterly transitional amounts). After two years, starting on January 1, 2022, the quarterly transitional amounts along with the initial adoption impact of CECL will be phased out of CET1 capital over a three-year period.

In July 2019, the federal banking regulatory agencies adopted a final rule, pursuant to the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996, that simplifies for non-advanced approaches banking organizations the regulatory capital treatment for mortgage servicing assets (“MSAs”) and certain deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences (temporary difference DTAs). It increases CET1 capital threshold deductions from 10% to 25% and removes the aggregate 15% CET1 threshold deduction. However, it retains the 250% risk weight applicable to non-deducted amounts of MSAs and temporary difference DTAs. On January 1, 2020, the Company elected to early implement the simplifications to the capital rule.

On November 13, 2019, the agencies jointly issued a final rule to simplify regulatory capital requirements for qualifying community banking organizations, as required by the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act. Under the final rule, depository institutions and depository institution holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a leverage ratio (equal to tier 1 capital divided by average total consolidated assets) of greater than 9 percent, will be eligible to opt into the community bank leverage ratio framework (qualifying community banking organizations). Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the community bank leverage ratio framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9 percent will be considered to have satisfied the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ capital rules be considered to have met the well-capitalized ratio requirements for purposes of section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. The final rule was effective on January 1, 2020. Even though OFG qualified for this ratio, the Company elected to opt-out.

The risk-based capital ratios presented in Table 13, which include common equity tier 1, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage capital as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, are calculated based on the Basel III capital rules related to the measurement of capital, risk-weighted assets and average assets.

The following are OFG’s consolidated capital ratios under the Basel III capital rules at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

The tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP measures and, unlike tier 1 capital and common equity tier 1 capital, are not codified in the federal banking regulations. Management and many stock analysts use the tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations. Neither tangible common equity nor tangible assets or related measures should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for stockholders’ equity, total assets or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which OFG calculates its tangible common equity, tangible assets and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. To mitigate these limitations, OFG has procedures in place to calculate these measures using the appropriate GAAP or regulatory components. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

Under OFG’s current stock repurchase program, it is authorized to purchase in the open market up to $5.5 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. The shares of common stock repurchased are to be held by OFG as treasury shares. In the quarter ended March 31, 2020, OFG repurchased 175,000 shares under this program for a total of $2.2 million, at an average price of $12.69 per share. OFG did not repurchase any shares of its common stock in the quarter ended on March 31, 2020, other than through its publicly announced stock repurchase program. There were no stock repurchases by OFG in the quarter ended on March 31, 2021.

At March 31, 2021, the number of shares that may yet be purchased under such program is estimated at 243,609 and was calculated by dividing the remaining balance of $5.5 million by $22.62 (closing price of OFG's common stock at March 31, 2021).

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related data presented herein (except for certain non-GAAP measures as previously indicated) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.

Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services since such prices are affected by inflation.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Background

OFG’s risk management policies are established by its Board of Directors (the “Board”) and implemented by management through the adoption of a risk management program, which is overseen and monitored by the Chief Risk and Compliance Officer, the Board’s Risk and Compliance Committee and the executive Risk and Compliance Team. OFG has continued to refine and enhance its risk management program by strengthening policies, processes and procedures necessary to maintain effective risk management.

All aspects of OFG’s business activities are susceptible to risk. Consequently, risk identification and monitoring are essential to risk management. As more fully discussed below, OFG’s primary risk exposures include market, interest rate, credit, liquidity, operational and concentration risks.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk to earnings or capital arising from adverse movements in market rates or prices, such as interest rates or prices. OFG evaluates market risk together with interest rate risk. OFG’s financial results and capital levels are constantly exposed to market risk. The Board and management are primarily responsible for ensuring that the market risk assumed by OFG complies with the guidelines established by policies approved by the Board. The Board has delegated the management of this risk to the Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”) which is composed of certain executive officers from the business, treasury and finance areas. One of ALCO’s primary goals is to ensure that the market risk assumed by OFG is within the parameters established in such policies.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the exposure of OFG’s earnings or capital to adverse movements in interest rates. It is a predominant market risk in terms of its potential impact on earnings. OFG manages its asset/liability position in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on net interest income. ALCO oversees interest rate risk, liquidity management and other related matters.

In executing its responsibilities, ALCO examines current and expected conditions in global financial markets, competition and prevailing rates in the local deposit market, liquidity, unrealized gains and losses in securities, recent or proposed changes to the investment portfolio, alternative funding sources and their costs, hedging and the possible purchase of derivatives such as swaps, and any tax or regulatory issues which may be pertinent to these areas.

On a quarterly basis, OFG performs a net interest income simulation analysis on a consolidated basis to estimate the potential change in future earnings from projected changes in interest rates. These simulations are carried out over a five-year time horizon, assuming certain gradual upward and downward interest rate movements, achieved during a twelve-month period. Instantaneous interest rate movements are also modeled. Simulations are carried out in two ways:

(i) using a static balance sheet as OFG had on the simulation date, and

(ii) using a dynamic balance sheet based on recent organic growth patterns and core business strategies.

The balance sheet is divided into groups of assets and liabilities detailed by maturity or re-pricing and their corresponding interest yields and costs. As interest rates rise or fall, these simulations incorporate expected future lending rates, current and expected future funding sources and costs, the possible exercise of options, changes in prepayment rates, deposits decay and other factors which may be important in projecting the future growth of net interest income.

OFG uses a software application to project future movements in OFG’s balance sheet and income statement. The starting point of the projections generally corresponds to the actual values of the balance sheet on the date of the simulations.

100

These simulations are complex and use many assumptions that are intended to reflect the general behavior of OFG over the period in question. There can be no assurance that actual events will match these assumptions in all cases. For this reason, the results of these simulations are only approximations of the true sensitivity of net interest income to changes in market interest rates. The following table presents the results of the simulations at March 31, 2021 for the most likely scenario, assuming a one-year time horizon:

	Net Interest Income Risk (one-year projection)
	Static Balance Sheet			Growing Simulation
	Amount		Percent	Amount		Percent
	Change		Change	Change		Change
Change in interest rate	(Dollars in thousands)
+ 200 Basis points	$	35,418	9.09%	$	31,479	8.13%
+ 100 Basis points	$	17,867	4.58%	$	15,825	4.09%
- 50 Basis points	$	(5,735)	-1.47%	$	(5,584)	-1.44%

Future net interest income could be affected by OFG’s investments in callable securities, prepayment risk related to mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities, and any structured repurchase agreements and advances from the FHLB-NY in which it may enter into from time to time. As part of the strategy to limit the interest rate risk and reduce the re-pricing gaps of OFG’s assets and liabilities, OFG has executed certain transactions which include extending the maturity and the re-pricing frequency of the liabilities to longer terms reducing the amounts of its structured repurchase agreements and entering into hedge-designated swaps to hedge the variability of future interest cash flows of forecasted wholesale borrowings that only consist of advances from the FHLB-NY as of March 31, 2021.

OFG maintains an overall interest rate risk management strategy that incorporates the use of derivative instruments to minimize significant unplanned fluctuations in earnings that are caused by interest rate volatility. OFG’s goal is to manage interest rate sensitivity by modifying the repricing or maturity characteristics of certain balance sheet assets and liabilities so that the net interest margin is not, on a material basis, adversely affected by movements in interest rates. As a result of interest rate fluctuations, hedged fixed-rate assets and liabilities will appreciate or depreciate in market value. Also, for some fixed-rate assets or liabilities, the effect of this variability in earnings is expected to be substantially offset by OFG’s gains and losses on the derivative instruments that are linked to the forecasted cash flows of these hedged assets and liabilities. OFG considers its strategic use of derivatives to be a prudent method of managing interest-rate sensitivity as it reduces the exposure of earnings and the market value of its equity to undue risk posed by changes in interest rates. The effect of this unrealized appreciation or depreciation is expected to be substantially offset by OFG’s gains or losses on the derivative instruments that are linked to these hedged assets and liabilities. Another result of interest rate fluctuation is that the contractual interest income and interest expense of hedged variable-rate assets and liabilities, respectively, will increase or decrease.

Derivative instruments that are used as part of OFG’s interest risk management strategy include interest rate swaps and option contracts that have indices related to the pricing of specific balance sheet assets and liabilities. Interest rate swaps generally involve the exchange of fixed and variable-rate interest payments between two parties based on a common notional principal amount and maturity date. Interest rate options represent contracts that allow the holder of the option to (i) receive cash or (ii) purchase, sell, or enter into a financial instrument at a specified price within a specified period. Some purchased option contracts give OFG the right to enter into interest rate swaps and cap and floor agreements with the writer of the option. In addition, OFG enters into certain transactions that contain embedded derivatives. When the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract, it is bifurcated and carried at fair value.

101

Following is a summary of certain strategies, including derivative activities, currently used by OFG to manage interest rate risk:

Interest rate swaps and wholesale borrowings — OFG uses interest rate swaps to hedge the variability of interest cash flows of certain advances from the FHLB-NY that are tied to a variable rate index. The interest rate swaps effectively fix OFG’s interest payments on these borrowings. As of March 31, 2021, OFG had $29.8 million in interest rate swaps at an average rate of 2.42% designated as cash flow hedges for $64.5 million in advances from the FHLB-NY that reprice or are being rolled over on a monthly basis. A derivative liability of $1.5 million was recognized at March 31, 2021 related to the valuation of these swaps.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the possibility of loss arising from a borrower or counterparty in a credit-related contract failing to perform in accordance with its terms. The principal source of credit risk for OFG is its lending activities. In Puerto Rico, OFG’s principal market, economic conditions are very challenging, as they have been for over a decade, due to a shrinking population, a protracted economic recession, a housing sector that remains under pressure, the Puerto Rico government’s fiscal and liquidity crisis, and the payment defaults on various Puerto Rico government bonds, with severe austerity measures expected for the Puerto Rico government to be able to restructure its debts under the supervision of the federally-created Fiscal Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico. In addition, as was demonstrated by the January 2020 earthquakes and hurricanes Irma and Maria in September 2017, Puerto Rico is susceptible to natural disasters, which can have a disproportionate impact because of the logistical difficulties of bringing relief to an island far from the United States mainland. Possible future climate changes may increase this risk. Moreover, the Puerto Rico government's fiscal challenges and Puerto Rico's unique relationship with the United States also complicate any relief efforts after a natural disaster. These events increase credit risk as debtors may no longer be capable of operating their businesses and the collateral securing OFG's loans may suffer significant damages.

OFG manages its credit risk through a comprehensive credit policy which establishes sound underwriting standards by monitoring and evaluating loan portfolio quality, and by the constant assessment of reserves and loan concentrations. OFG also employs proactive collection and loss mitigation practices.

OFG may also encounter risk of default in relation to its securities portfolio. The securities held by OFG are all agency mortgage-backed securities. Thus, these instruments are guaranteed by mortgages, a U.S. government-sponsored entity, or the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.

OFG’s executive Credit Risk Team, composed of its Chief Operating Officer, Chief Risk and Compliance Officer, and other senior executives, has primary responsibility for setting strategies to achieve OFG’s credit risk goals and objectives. Those goals and objectives are set forth in OFG’s Credit Policy as approved by the Board.

In the year 2020 and during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Covid-19 pandemic has negatively impacted economic activity in Puerto Rico, the U.S. and around the world. Nevertheless, we did not see meaningful impacts to loan portfolio delinquencies, nonperforming loans or charge-offs in the quarter ended March 31, 2021 as a result of the pandemic. To provide relief to individuals and businesses in the U.S., in March and April 2020, the President signed into law four economic stimulus packages, including the CARES Act. Further, on December 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, a $900 billion coronavirus relief bill as part of a larger $1.4 trillion omnibus spending and appropriations bill. The federal banking regulatory agencies also issued interagency guidance to financial institutions that are working with borrowers affected by Covid-19. The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was signed into law by President Biden on March 11, 2021. The current eviction and foreclosure moratoriums, which end on March 31, 2021, will not be extended under the plan. However, additional funding will provide relief to those behind on mortgages, rent, and utility bills.

To support our customers, we have implemented various loan modification programs and other forms of support, including offering loan payment deferrals, waiver of certain fees and pausing foreclosure sales, evictions and repossessions. For a description of the loan modification programs that we have implemented, see Recent Developments – Covid-19 Pandemic 2020 of the MD&A in this quarterly report. For information on the accounting for loan modifications related to the Covid-19 pandemic, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 2020 10-K Annual Report.

102

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk of OFG not being able to generate sufficient cash from either assets or liabilities to meet obligations as they become due without incurring substantial losses. The Board has established a policy to manage this risk. OFG’s cash requirements principally consist of deposit withdrawals, contractual loan funding, repayment of borrowings as these mature, and funding of new and existing investments as required.

OFG’s business requires continuous access to various funding sources. While OFG is able to fund its operations through deposits as well as through advances from the FHLB-NY and other alternative sources, OFG’s business is dependent upon other external wholesale funding sources. OFG has selectively reduced its use of certain wholesale funding sources, such as repurchase agreements and brokered deposits. As of March 31, 2021, OFG had $11.0 million in brokered deposits.

Brokered deposits are typically offered through an intermediary to small retail investors. OFG’s ability to continue to attract brokered deposits is subject to variability based upon a number of factors, including volume and volatility in the global securities markets, OFG’s credit rating, and the relative interest rates that it is prepared to pay for these liabilities. Brokered deposits are generally considered a less stable source of funding than core deposits obtained through retail bank branches. Investors in brokered deposits are generally more sensitive to interest rates and will generally move funds from one depository institution to another based on small differences in interest rates offered on deposits. As a result of the increase in core deposits from the Scotiabank PR & USVI Acquisition and organic growth, OFG has been limiting the offering of brokered deposits.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates, bear variable interest rate and may require payment of a fee. Since the commitments may expire unexercised, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. OFG evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by OFG upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Loan commitments, which represent unused lines of credit, decreased to $1.109 billion at March 31, 2021 as compared to $1.134 billion at December 31, 2020, while letters of credit provided to customers increased to $21.0 million as compared to $19.7 million at December 31, 2020. Loans sold with recourse at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 amounted to $131.5 million and $135.3 million, respectively. In addition, at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, OFG maintained other non-credit commitments amounting to $11.9 million and $9.0 million, respectively, primarily for the acquisition of other investments.

Our liquidity risk management practices have allowed us to effectively manage the market stress that began in the first quarter of 2020 from the Covid-19 pandemic. Requests for loan payment deferrals rose in the second quarter of 2020. Nevertheless, most payment deferrals ended in the third quarter of 2020, with only 1% of total loans remaining at March 31, 2021 compared to 30% at June 30, 2020. Even though OFG’s liquidity has been impacted by loan principal and interest payment deferrals that have been granted for certain customers due to Covid-19, liquidity has been growing from the federal stimulus programs Puerto Rico is receiving following 2017’s Hurricane Maria, the early 2020 earthquakes, and now the Covid-19 pandemic. In the case of loans serviced by OFG for FNMA, OFG is required to advance to the owners the payment of principal and interest on a scheduled basis for six months even when such payment was not collected from the borrower due to payment forbearance granted or payment delinquency. Such amounts advanced are recorded as a receivable by OFG and are expected to be collected from the borrower and/or government agency (FNMA). Additionally, liquidity could be adversely impacted if customers withdraw significant deposit balances due to Covid-19 concerns.

Although OFG expects to have continued access to credit from the foregoing sources of funds, there can be no assurance that such financing sources will continue to be available or will be available on favorable terms. In a period of financial disruption or if negative developments occur with respect to OFG, the availability and cost of OFG’s funding sources could be adversely affected. In that event, OFG’s cost of funds may increase, thereby reducing its net interest income, or OFG may need to dispose of a portion of its investment portfolio, which depending upon market conditions, could result in realizing a loss or experiencing other adverse accounting consequences upon any such dispositions. OFG’s efforts to monitor and manage liquidity risk may not be successful to deal with dramatic or unanticipated changes in the global securities markets or other reductions in liquidity driven by OFG or market-related events. In the event that such sources of funds are reduced or eliminated, and OFG is not able to replace these on a cost-effective basis, OFG may be forced to curtail or cease its loan origination business and treasury activities, which would have a material adverse effect on its operations and financial condition.

As of March 31, 2021, OFG had approximately $2.4 billion in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $297.0 million in investment securities that are not pledged as collateral, and $785.5 million in borrowing capacity at the FHLB-NY.

103

Operational Risk

Operational risk is the risk of loss from inadequate or failed internal processes, personnel and systems or from external events. All functions, products and services of OFG are susceptible to operational risk.

OFG faces ongoing and emerging risk and regulatory pressure related to the activities that surround the delivery of banking and financial products and services. Coupled with external influences such as the risk of natural disasters, market conditions, security risks, and legal risks, the potential for operational and reputational loss has increased. In order to mitigate and control operational risk, OFG has developed, and continues to enhance, specific internal controls, policies and procedures that are designed to identify and manage operational risk at appropriate levels throughout the organization. The purpose of these policies and procedures is to provide reasonable assurance that OFG’s business operations are functioning within established limits.

OFG classifies operational risk into two major categories: business specific and corporate-wide affecting all business lines. For business specific risks, a risk assessment group works with the various business units to ensure consistency in policies, processes and assessments. With respect to corporate-wide risks, such as information security, business recovery, legal and compliance, OFG has specialized groups, such as Information Security, Enterprise Risk Management, Corporate Compliance, Information Technology, Legal and Operations. These groups assist the lines of business in the development and implementation of risk management practices specific to the needs of the business groups. All these matters are reviewed and discussed in the executive Risk and Compliance Team. OFG also has a Business Continuity Plan to address situations where its capacity to perform critical functions is affected. Under such circumstances, a Crisis Management Team is activated to restore such critical functions within established timeframes.

The Business Continuity Plan has allowed us to effectively manage the operational disruption that began in the first quarter of 2020 from the Covid-19 pandemic. For more information on the effects of the pandemic, see Recent Developments – Covid-19 Pandemic 2020 of the MD&A in this quarterly report.

OFG is subject to extensive United States federal and Puerto Rico regulations, and this regulatory scrutiny has been significantly increasing over the last several years. OFG has established and continues to enhance procedures based on legal and regulatory requirements that are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. OFG has a corporate compliance function headed by a Chief Risk and Compliance Officer who reports to the Chief Executive Officer and supervises the BSA Officer and Regulatory Compliance Officer. The Chief Risk and Compliance Officer is responsible for the oversight of regulatory compliance and implementation of a company-wide compliance program, including the Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering compliance program.

Concentration Risk

Most of OFG’s business activities and a significant portion of its credit exposure are concentrated in Puerto Rico. As a consequence, OFG’s profitability and financial condition may be adversely affected by an extended economic slowdown, adverse political, fiscal or economic developments in Puerto Rico, or the effects of a natural disaster, all of which could result in a reduction in loan originations, an increase in non-performing assets, an increase in foreclosure losses on mortgage loans, and a reduction in the value of its loans and loan servicing portfolio.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of OFG’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of OFG’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon such evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that, as of the end of such period, OFG’s disclosure controls and procedures provided reasonable assurance of effectiveness in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by OFG in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within OFG to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in OFG’s periodic reports.

104

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in Oriental’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Oriental’s internal control over financial reporting.

105

PART - II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 . LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

OFG and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of legal proceedings incidental to their business. OFG is vigorously contesting such claims. Based upon a review by legal counsel and the development of these matters to date, management is of the opinion that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, resulting from these claims will not have a material adverse effect on OFG’s financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Oriental’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
