Overview


  First Internet Bancorp ("we," "our," "us," or the "Company") is a financial
holding company with $4.3 billion in total assets as of September 30, 2022, that
conducts its primary business activities through its wholly owned subsidiary,
First Internet Bank of Indiana, an Indiana chartered bank (the "Bank"). The Bank
was the first state-chartered, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC")
insured Internet bank and commenced banking operations in 1999. The Company was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Indiana on September 15, 2005. On
March 21, 2006, we consummated a plan of exchange by which we acquired all of
the outstanding shares of the Bank.

  The Bank has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: First Internet Public Finance
Corp., an Indiana corporation that provides a range of public and municipal
finance lending and leasing products to governmental entities throughout the
United States and acquires securities issued by state and local governments and
other municipalities; JKH Realty Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company that manages other real estate owned ("OREO") properties as needed; and
SPF15, Inc., an Indiana corporation that owns real estate used primarily for the
Bank's principal office.

We offer a wide range of commercial, small business, consumer and municipal
banking products and services. We conduct our consumer and small business
deposit operations primarily through digital channels on a nationwide basis and
have no traditional branch offices. Our residential mortgage products are
offered nationwide primarily through a digital direct-to-consumer platform and
are supplemented with Central Indiana-based mortgage and construction lending.
Our consumer lending products are primarily originated on a nationwide basis
through relationships with dealerships and financing partners.

Our commercial banking products and services are delivered through a
relationship banking model and include commercial and industrial ("C&I"),
construction and investor commercial real estate, single tenant lease financing,
public finance, healthcare finance, small business lending, franchise finance
and commercial deposits and treasury management. Our C&I team provides credit
solutions such as lines of credit, term loans, owner-occupied commercial real
estate loans and corporate credit cards on a regional basis to commercial
borrowers primarily in the Midwest and Southwest regions of the United States.
We primarily offer construction and investor commercial real estate loans within
Central Indiana or on a regional basis and single tenant lease financing on a
nationwide basis. Our public finance team provides a range of public and
municipal lending and leasing products to government entities on a nationwide
basis. Our healthcare finance team was established in conjunction with our
strategic partnership with Provide, Inc. (formerly known as Lendeavor, Inc.), a
San Francisco-based technology-enabled lender to healthcare practices, which
provided lending on a nationwide basis for healthcare practice finance or
acquisition, acquisition or refinancing of owner-occupied commercial real estate
and equipment purchases. In the third quarter 2021, Provide was acquired by a
super-regional financial institution. Subsequent to Provide being acquired, the
acquiring institution has retained most, if not all, of Provide's loan
origination activity and our healthcare finance loan balances have declined. Our
franchise finance business was established in July 2021 in conjunction with our
business relationship with ApplePie Capital, a financial technology ("fintech")
company that specializes in providing financing to franchisees in various
industry segments. Our commercial deposits and treasury management team works
with the other commercial teams to provide deposit products and treasury
management services to our commercial and municipal lending customers as well as
pursues commercial deposit opportunities in business segments where we have no
credit relationships.

We believe that we can differentiate ourselves from larger financial
institutions by providing a full suite of services to emerging small businesses
and entrepreneurs on a nationwide basis. We have recruited experienced small
business sales, credit and operations personnel to expand our capabilities in
small business lending and U.S. government guaranteed lending programs. We
continue to scale up this business with the goal of driving increased earnings
and profitability in future periods.

We plan to expand our fintech partnerships. With the rapid evolution of
technology that enables consumers and small businesses to manage their finances
digitally, fintechs are addressing a significantly growing marketplace. Fintechs
have created robust digital offerings, unburdened by legacy technology
architecture, to address growing customer expectations. Through partnerships
with selected fintechs, we believe our ability to win and retain consumer and
small business relationships will be significantly enhanced. Furthermore, we
believe partnering with select fintechs will allow us to further diversify our
revenue sources, acquire lower-cost deposits and pursue additional asset
generation capabilities.

ended September 30, 2022 from $36.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2021.

The increase in total interest income for the third quarter 2022 compared to
third quarter 2021 was due primarily to a $4.5 million, or 15.0%, increase in
interest earned on loans, $0.9 million, or 241.6%, increase in income from other
earning assets and a $0.7 million, or 25.8%, increase in interest earned on
securities. The increase in income from loans was due primarily to a 29 bp
increase in the yield earned on loans, as well as an increase of $219.5 million,
or 7.4%, in the average balance of loans compared to the third quarter 2021. The
yield earned on other earning assets increased 235 bps, partially offset by a
decrease in the average balance of other earning assets of $290.6 million, or
60.7%. The decrease in the average balance of other earning assets was due
primarily to lower cash balances. The average balance of securities decreased
$107.0 million, or 15.0%, while the yield earned on the securities portfolio
increased 68 bps for the third quarter 2022 compared to the third quarter 2021.
The increase in the yields earned on loans, other earning assets and securities
was due to the rise in interest rates throughout 2022.

                                       47
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The increase in total interest income for the nine months ended September 30,
2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was due primarily to
an $8.4 million, or 9.2%, increase in interest earned on loans, a $1.8 million,
or 26.3%, increase in interest earned on securities and a $1.4 million, or
128.3%, increase in income from other earning assets. The increase in income
from loans was due primarily to a 31 bp increase in the yield earned on loans,
as well as a $41.0 million, or 1.4%, increase in the average balance of loans.
The average balance of securities increased $12.2 million, or 2.0%, and the
yield earned on the securities portfolio increased 35 bps for the nine months
ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
In addition, the yield earned on other earning assets increased 71 bps, but was
partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of other earning assets of
$157.1 million, or 32.9%. The decrease in the average balance of other earning
assets was due primarily to lower cash balances. The increase in the yields
earned on loans, securities and other earning assets was due to the rise in
interest rates throughout 2022.

The increase in total interest expense for the third quarter 2022 compared to
the third quarter 2021 was due primarily to an increase of $3.0 million, or
199.0%, in interest expense associated with money market accounts and a $0.4
million, or 267.3%, increase in interest expense associated with
interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by a $0.9 million, or 17.5%,
decrease in interest expense related to certificates and brokered deposits.
Additionally, the Company added Banking-as-a-Service ("BaaS") deposits in 2022,
which increased interest expense by $0.9 million. The increase in interest
expense related to money market accounts was driven primarily by an increase of
92 bps in the cost of these deposits, partially offset by a decrease in the
average balance of these deposits of $128.4 million, or 8.6%. The increase in
interest expense related to interest-bearing demand deposits was due primarily
to approximately $100.0 million in deposits with a contractual term of five
years and a fixed rate of 1.15% pursuant to a new customer relationship in 2022.
Interest expense on certificates and brokered deposits decreased due to a $340.9
million, or 24.7%, decrease in the average balance of these deposits, partially
offset by an increase of 15 bps in the cost of these deposits. The decrease in
certificates and brokered deposit balances was driven by the Company's pricing
strategy to reduce the level of these higher cost deposits. The increase in the
cost of money market accounts and certificates and brokered deposits, as well as
the cost of BaaS deposits, was due to the rise in interest rates throughout
2022.

The decrease in total interest expense for the nine months ended September 30,
2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was driven primarily
by a $6.1 million, or 33.2%, decrease in interest expense related to
certificates and brokered deposits, partially offset by a $3.6 million, or
82.6%, increase in interest expense associated with money market accounts and a
$1.0 million, or 236.2%, increase in interest expense associated with
interest-bearing demand deposits. Additionally, the Company added BaaS deposits
in 2022, which increased interest expense by $1.0 million. Interest expense on
certificates and brokered deposits decreased due to a decline of 24 bps in the
cost of these deposits, as well as a $324.9 million, or 22.5%, decrease in
average balance of these deposits. The decrease in certificates and brokered
deposit balances was driven by the Company's pricing strategy to reduce the
level of these higher cost deposits. The increase in interest expense related to
money market accounts was driven primarily by an increase of 35 bps in the cost
of these deposits, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of
these deposits of $11.6 million, or 0.8%. The increase in interest expense
related to interest-bearing demand deposits was due primarily to approximately
$100.0 million in deposits with a contractual term of five years and a fixed
rate of 1.15% pursuant to a new customer relationship in 2022. The increase in
the cost of money market accounts, as well as the cost of BaaS deposits,
reflects the increase in interest rates throughout 2022

Overall, the cost of total interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter
2022 increased 39 bps to 1.67% from 1.28% for the third quarter 2021. The cost
of total interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30,
2022 remained flat with the nine months ended September 30, 2021 at 1.32%. The
increase in the cost of funds for the third quarter 2022 reflects the rapid rise
in interest rates throughout 2022.

Net interest margin ("NIM") was 2.40% for the third quarter 2022 compared to
2.00% for the third quarter 2021, an increase of 40 bps. On a fully-taxable
equivalent ("FTE") basis, NIM was 2.53% for the third quarter 2022 compared to
2.13% for the third quarter 2021, an increase of 40 bps. The increase in third
quarter 2022 NIM and FTE NIM compared to the third quarter 2021 reflects the
increase in earning asset yields noted above, partially offset by the increase
in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

NIM was 2.52% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2.05% for
the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 47 bps. On a
fully-taxable equivalent basis, NIM was 2.65% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2022, compared to 2.19% for the nine months ended September 30,
2021, an increase of 46 bps. The increase in NIM for the nine months ended
September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflects
the increase in earning asset yields noted above, as the cost of
interest-bearing liabilities remained stable.

During the third quarter 2022, noninterest income was $4.3 million, representing
a decrease of $3.5 million, or 44.8%, compared to $7.8 million for the third
quarter 2021. The decrease in noninterest income was due primarily to a decrease
in revenue from mortgage banking activities and a decrease in other noninterest
income, partially offset by an increase in loan servicing revenue. The decline
in mortgage banking revenue was due primarily to decreases in interest rate
locks, sold loan volumes and gain-on-sale margins driven by the increase in
interest rates throughout 2022. The decrease in other noninterest income is due
primarily to a distribution from the Company's investment in a Small Business
Investment Company fund that occurred during the three months ended September
30, 2021. The increase in loan servicing revenue was due to growth in the
balance of the Company's SBA 7(a) servicing portfolio.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, noninterest income was $15.5
million, representing a decrease of $9.7 million, or 38.6%, compared to $25.2
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in
noninterest income was due primarily to a decrease in revenue from mortgage
banking activities and a decrease of $2.5 million from the gain on sale of
premises and equipment resulting from the sale of the Company's former
headquarters that occurred in the second quarter 2021, partially offset by a
$1.0 million, or 14.1%, increase in gain on sale of loans. The decrease in
mortgage banking activities was due mainly to decreases in interest rate locks,
sold loan volumes and gain-on-sale margins driven by the increase in interest
rates throughout 2022. The increase in gain on sale of loans was due to an
increase in the volume of U.S. SBA 7(a) guaranteed loan sales, as well as a gain
on the sale of $14.4 million of single tenant lease financing loans in 2022.

                                       49
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Noninterest expense for the third quarter 2022 was $18.0 million, compared to
$14.5 million for the third quarter 2021. The increase of $3.5 million, or
24.5%, was due primarily to increases of $1.1 million, or 12.1%, in salaries and
employee benefits, $1.1 million, or 2.9%, in premises and equipment, and $0.8
million, or 2.0%, in loan expenses. The higher salaries and employee benefits
expense was due mainly to an increase in headcount as well as an increase in
medical claims expense.The increase in premises and equipment was primarily
related to costs associated with the Company's new corporate headquarters, as
well as investments in technology, software maintenance and a write-down of
software. The increase in loan expenses was due mainly to servicing fees related
to the growth in franchise finance loans.

Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $54.8
million, compared to $44.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase of $9.9 million, or 22.1%, was due primarily to increases of $3.1
million in salaries and employee benefits, $2.9 million in premises and
equipment, $2.0 million in loan expenses and $1.1 million in consulting and
professional fees. The higher salaries and employee benefits expense was due
primarily to an increase in headcount, higher medical claims expense, a $0.5
million discretionary inflation bonus paid to certain employees and $0.3 million
of accelerated equity compensation related to employees who retired during the
year. The increase in premises and equipment was due mainly to costs associated
with the Company's new corporate headquarters, as well as investments in
technology, software maintenance and a write-down of software. The increase in
loan expenses was due primarily to servicing fees related to tax refund advance
loans and franchise finance loans. The increase in consulting and professional
fees was due primarily to a $0.9 million consulting fee associated with a
special project.

Income tax provision was $1.0 million for the third quarter 2022, resulting in
an effective tax rate of 10.5%, compared to a tax provision of $2.2 million for
the third quarter 2021 and an effective tax rate of 15.5%. Income tax provision
was $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, resulting in an
effective tax rate of 12.2%, compared to an income tax provision of $6.5
million, or an effective tax rate of 15.3%, for the nine months ended September
30, 2021. The lower income tax provision and effective tax rate during the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2022 is the result of the decline in
noninterest income, resulting in a higher proportion of tax exempt income to
total pre-tax income.

Total assets increased $53.4 million, or 1.3%, to $4.3 billion at September 30,
2022 compared to $4.2 billion at December 31, 2021. The increase was due
primarily to increases in loan balances, partially offset by decreases in total
securities balances and cash balances.

As of September 30, 2022, total shareholders' equity was $360.9 million, a
decrease of $19.5 million, or 5.1%, compared to December 31, 2021, due primarily
to stock repurchase activity and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive
loss resulting from a decline in the value of the available-for-sale securities
portfolio caused by the continued rise in interest rates during the year. This
was partially offset by the net income earned during the year and an increase in
the value of interest rate swaps classified as cash flow hedges. Tangible common
equity totaled $356.2 million as of September 30, 2022, representing a decrease
of $19.5 million, or 5.2%, compared to December 31, 2021. The ratio of total
shareholders' equity to total assets decreased to 8.46% as of September 30, 2022
from 9.03% as of December 31, 2021, and the ratio of tangible common equity to
tangible assets decreased to 8.36% as of September 30, 2022 from 8.93% as of
December 31, 2021.

Book value per common share decreased 0.4% to $38.84 as of September 30, 2022
from $38.99 as of December 31, 2021. Tangible book value per share decreased
0.4% to $38.34 as of September 30, 2022 from $38.51 as of December 31, 2021. The
slight decline in both book value per common share and tangible book value per
share reflects the declines in total
                                       50

swaps associated with public finance loans as of September 30, 2022, June 30,
2022, March 31, 2022, December 31, 2021, and September 30, 2021, respectively.


Total loans were $3.3 billion as of September 30, 2022, an increase of $368.2
million, or 12.8%, compared to December 31, 2021. Total commercial loan balances
were $2.5 billion as of September 30, 2022, up $171.2 million, or 7.2%, from
December 31, 2021. Total consumer loan balances were $672.2 million as of
September 30, 2022, an increase of $202.3 million, or 43.1%, compared to
December 31, 2021. Compared to December 31, 2021, the increase in commercial
loan balances was driven by growth in franchise finance, investor commercial
real estate, single tenant lease financing, public finance, commercial and
industrial and small business lending. The increase was partially offset by net
payoffs in healthcare finance and owner-occupied commercial real estate loans.
The increase in consumer loans was due to higher balances in the residential
mortgage, home equity, trailers, recreational vehicles and other consumer loan
portfolios.

Franchise finance was established in July 2021 in partnership with ApplePie
Capital
, a leading provider of growth financing to franchisees in various
industry segments across the country. Through this relationship, we have funded
$234.1 million in total originations since inception.

Total nonperforming loans declined $1.4 million, or 18.9%, to $6.0 million as of
September 30, 2022 compared to $7.4 million as of December 31, 2021 due
primarily to upgrades and payoffs in the owner-occupied commercial real estate
and commercial and industrial loan portfolios, partially offset by SBA loans
placed on nonaccrual during 2022. Total nonperforming assets declined $2.6
million, or 30.3%, as of September 30, 2022, compared to December 31, 2021, due
primarily to the upgrades and payoffs discussed above, as well as the decline in
other real estate owned ("OREO") discussed below.

Total troubled debt restructurings $ 4,752 $ 4,814

$ 4,858 $ 4,185 $ 3,393

Total TDRs as of September 30, 2022 were $4.8 million, up $0.6 million from
December 31, 2021. The increase was driven by one residential mortgage loan that
became a TDR in 2022.


   As of September 30, 2022, the Company did not own any OREO. As of December
31, 2021, the Company had one single tenant lease financing property in OREO
with a carrying value of $1.2 million. During the first quarter 2022, the
Company reached a settlement agreement with the guarantor, which resulted in the
Company recovering $1.2 million in excess of the carrying value of OREO.

Non-TDR Loan Modifications due to COVID-19


  The "Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial
Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus" was issued by
our banking regulators on March 22, 2020. This guidance encourages financial
institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet
their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of COVID-19.

  Additionally, Section 4013 of the CARES Act further provides that loan
modifications due to the impact of COVID-19 that would otherwise be classified
as TDRs under GAAP will not be so classified. Modifications within the scope of
this relief were in effect from the period beginning March 1, 2020 until January
1, 2022.

In accordance with this guidance, the Company offered modifications to
borrowers who were both impacted by COVID-19 and current on all principal and
interest payments. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had no loans as
non-TDR loan modifications due to COVID-19.

U.S. Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program


Section 1102 of the CARES Act created the PPP, which is jointly administered by
the SBA and the Department of the Treasury. The PPP is designed to provide a
direct incentive to small businesses to retain employees on their payroll during
COVID-19 as well as to help cover certain utility costs and rent payments. These
loans may be forgiven if certain conditions are satisfied and are fully
guaranteed by the SBA. In 2020, as a preferred SBA lender, we assisted our
clients in participating in the PPP to help them maintain their workforce in an
uncertain and challenging environment. The loans originated in 2020 bear an
interest rate of 1.00%, and we received gross origination fees of approximately
$2.3 million. The Company received this fee revenue from the SBA in late June
2020, and it was deferred over the life of the PPP loans and recognized as
interest income. The Company began processing applications for forgiveness from
this round beginning in December 2020 and 100% of loan balances had been
forgiven as of December 31, 2021.

On December 27, 2020, $285 billion in additional funding was allocated to the
PPP through the passage of the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses,
Nonprofits, and Venues Act. The Company began offering PPP loans again in 2021
and continued until the program's funds were depleted. These loans may be
forgiven if certain conditions are satisfied and are fully guaranteed by the
SBA. The loans originated during 2021 bear an interest rate of 1.00% and the
Company received gross origination fees of approximately $1.3 million. The
Company received this fee revenue from the SBA during 2021, and it was deferred
over the life of the PPP loans and recognized as interest income. The Company
began processing applications for forgiveness from this round beginning in May
2021 and 100% of loan balances had been forgiven as of September 30, 2022.

  The allowance for loan losses was $29.9 million as of September 30, 2022,
compared to $27.8 million as of December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses
as a percentage of total loans, including and excluding PPP loans, was 0.92% at
September 30, 2022, compared to 0.96%, or 0.97% when excluding PPP loans, at
December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of
nonperforming loans increased to 497.3% as of September 30, 2022, compared to
376.2% as of December 31, 2021.

Net charge-offs of $0.2 million were recognized during the third quarter 2022,
resulting in net charge-offs to average loans of 0.02%, compared to net
recoveries to average loans of 0.01% for the third quarter 2021.


The provision for loan losses in the third quarter 2022 was $0.9 million,
compared to a $29 thousand credit for the third quarter 2021. The provision for
the third quarter 2022 was driven primarily by growth in the loan portfolio,
partially offset by reductions in specific reserves due to positive developments
on certain monitored loans.

The approximate fair value of available-for-sale investment securities decreased
$209.5 million, or 34.7%, to $393.6 million as of September 30, 2022, compared
to $603.0 million as of December 31, 2021. The decrease was due primarily to
decreases of $154.0 million in agency mortgage-backed securities - residential,
$19.8 million in agency mortgage-backed securities - commercial, $13.5 million
in municipal securities, and $12.7 million in U.S. Government-sponsored
agencies. The decrease in agency mortgage-backed securities - residential and
agency mortgage-backed securities - commercial was due primarily to the transfer
of $96.2 million of these securities from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity
in the first quarter 2022, as well as a decline in fair value resulting from the
continued rise in interest rates. The decreases in other securities types were
also driven by a decline in value resulting from the continued rise in interest
rates, as well as net paydown activity.

Accrued Income and Other Assets


  Accrued income and other assets decreased $3.4 million, or 7.2%, to $43.5
million at September 30, 2022 compared to $46.9 million at December 31, 2021.
The decrease was primarily related to a decrease of $15.7 million in cash
pledged as collateral and $7.7 million in deferred tax assets, partially offset
by increases of $9.3 million in derivative assets, $8.6 million in income tax
receivable, and $2.1 million in investment fund partnerships. As of September
30, 2022 the Company had no pledged cash collateral compared to $15.7 million,
as of December 31, 2021. Cash collateral is pledged to counterparties on
interest rate swap agreements as security for its obligations related to these
agreements. Collateral posted and received is dependent on the fair value of the
underlying agreements as of the respective date.

Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities


  Accrued expenses and other liabilities decreased $15.9 million, or 52.0%, to
$14.7 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $30.5 million at December 31,
2021. The decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities was due primarily
to decreases of $13.9 million, or 97.3%, in derivative liabilities and $3.9
million in accrued taxes, partially offset by increases of $1.8 million, or
0.3%, in other liabilities and $0.1 million in accrued salary and benefits.

Total deposits increased $13.7 million, or 0.4%, to $3.2 billion as of
September 30, 2022, compared to $3.2 billion as of December 31, 2021. This
increase was due primarily to increases of $113.2 million, or 37.8%, in brokered
deposits, $96.3 million in BaaS - brokered deposits, $89.8 million, or 36.2%, in
interest-bearing demand deposits and $25.1 million, or 21.4%, in
noninterest-bearing deposits, partially offset by decreases of $197.1 million,
or 20.3%, in certificates of deposits, $105.8 million, or 7.1% in money market
accounts and $7.8 million, or 13.0%, in savings accounts. The increase in
brokered deposits was due to accessing certain deposit channels during the third
quarter 2022 to support balance sheet liquidity and manage interest rate risk.
The increase in BaaS brokered deposits was due to a relationship established in
the first quarter 2022. The increase in the balance of interest-bearing demand
deposits was due primarily to a new customer relationship from the first quarter
of 2022 with approximately $100.0 million in deposits with a contractual term of
five years and a fixed rate of 1.15%. The decrease in the balance of
certificates of deposits was due to the maturity of higher-cost balances and
reduced pricing strategies designed to limit the volume of new production. The
decrease in money market accounts was due primarily to certain customer activity
that can be periodically volatile.

Recent Debt Offerings


  In August 2021, the Company issued $60.0 million aggregate principal amount of
3.75% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2031 (the "2031 Notes") in a
private placement. The 2031 Notes initially bear a fixed interest rate of 3.75%
per year to, but excluding, September 1, 2026, and thereafter a floating rate
equal to the then-current benchmark rate (initially three-month Term SOFR plus
3.11%). The 2031 Notes are scheduled to mature on September 1, 2031. The 2031
Notes are unsecured subordinated obligations of the Company and may be repaid,
without penalty, on any interest payment date on or after September 1, 2026. The
2031 Notes are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital under regulatory
guidelines. Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement between the
Company and the initial purchasers of the 2031 Notes, the Company offered to
exchange the 2031 Notes for subordinated notes that are registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and have substantially the same terms as the
2031 Notes. On December 30, 2021, the Company completed an exchange of $59.3
million principal amount of the unregistered 2031 Notes for registered 2031
Notes in satisfaction of its obligations under the registration rights
agreement. Holders of $0.7 million of unregistered 2031 Notes did not
participate in the exchange.

Regulatory Capital Requirements


The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by state and federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines
and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve
quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet
items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and
classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about
components, risk weighting and other factors.

The Basel III Capital Rules became effective for the Company and the Bank on
January 1, 2015, subject to a phase-in period for certain provisions.
Quantitative measures established by the Basel III Capital Rules to ensure
capital adequacy require the maintenance of minimum amounts and ratios of Common
Equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital and Total capital, as defined in the
regulations, to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to adjusted
quarterly average assets ("Leverage Ratio").

                                       58
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Basel III Capital Rules were fully phased in on January 1, 2019 and require
the Company and the Bank to maintain: 1) a minimum ratio of Common Equity Tier 1
capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%, plus a 2.5% "capital conservation
buffer" (resulting in a minimum ratio of Common Equity Tier 1 capital to
risk-weighted assets of 7.0%); 2) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to
risk-weighted assets of 6.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer (resulting in
a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5%); 3) a minimum ratio of Total capital to
risk-weighted assets of 8.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer (resulting in
a minimum Total capital ratio of 10.5%); and 4) a minimum Leverage Ratio of
4.0%.

The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of
economic stress. Failure to maintain the minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital
ratio plus the capital conservation buffer will result in potential restrictions
on a banking institution's ability to pay dividends, repurchase stock and/or pay
discretionary compensation to its employees.

The following tables present actual and required capital ratios as of
September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 for the Company and the Bank under the
Basel III Capital Rules. The minimum required capital amounts presented include
the minimum required capital levels as of September 30, 2022 and December 31,
2021, which are based on the Basel III Capital Rules. Capital levels required to
be considered well capitalized are based upon prompt corrective action
regulations, as amended to reflect the changes under the Basel III Capital
Rules.

Shareholders’ Dividends


The Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share of
common stock payable October 17, 2022 to shareholders of record as of
September 30, 2022. The Company expects to continue to pay cash dividends on a
quarterly basis; however, the declaration and amount of any future cash
dividends will be subject to the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and
will depend upon many factors, including the Company's results of operations,
financial condition, capital requirements, regulatory and contractual
restrictions (including with respect to the Company's outstanding subordinated
debt), business strategy and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of
Directors.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $107.0 million principal amount of
subordinated debt outstanding evidenced by the 2029 Notes, 2030 Note and 2031
Notes. The agreements that govern our outstanding subordinated debt prohibit the
Company from paying any dividends on its common stock or making any other
distributions to shareholders at any time when there shall have occurred, and be
continuing to occur, an event of default under the applicable agreement. If an
event of default were to occur and the Company did not cure it, the Company
would be prohibited from paying any dividends or making any other distributions
to shareholders or from redeeming or repurchasing any common stock.

Capital Resources


The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet
its cash and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months and
longer. The Company may explore strategic alternatives, including additional
asset, deposit or revenue generation channels that complement our commercial and
consumer banking platforms, which may require additional capital. If the Company
is unable to secure such capital at favorable terms, its ability to take
advantage of such opportunities could be adversely affected.

On October 20, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock
repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $30.0 million of the
Company's outstanding common stock from time to time on the open market or in
privately negotiated transactions. In October 2022, the Company's Board of
Directors increased the authorization to $35.0 million. Under this program, the
Company repurchased 100,000 shares at a total cost of $4.4 million during 2021,
103,703 shares at a total cost of $5.1 million during the first quarter 2022,
294,464 shares at a total cost of $11.1 million during the second quarter 2022
and 120,000 shares at a total cost of $4.4 million during the third quarter
2022. The stock repurchase authorization is scheduled to expire on December 31,
2022. Various factors determine the amount and timing of our share repurchases,
including our capital requirements, organic growth and other strategic
opportunities, economic and market conditions (including the trading price of
our stock), and regulatory and legal considerations. See Part II, Item 2, of
this report for information regarding recent repurchase activity and our
remaining authority under the program.

Liquidity


Liquidity management is the process used by the Company to manage the continuing
flow of funds necessary to meet its financial commitments on a timely basis and
at a reasonable cost while also maintaining safe and sound operations.
Liquidity, represented by cash and investment securities, is a product of the
Company's operating, investing and financing activities. The primary sources of
funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and investment
securities, maturing loans and investment securities, access to wholesale
funding sources and collateralized borrowings. While scheduled payments and
maturities of loans and investment securities are relatively predictable sources
of funds, deposit flows are greatly influenced by interest rates, general
economic conditions and competition. Therefore, the Company supplements deposit
growth and enhances interest rate risk management through borrowings and
wholesale funding, which are generally advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank
("FHLB") and brokered deposits.

The Company holds cash and investment securities that qualify as liquid assets
to maintain adequate liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations and meet its
financial commitments. At September 30, 2022, on a consolidated basis, the
Company had $614.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and investment
securities available-for-sale and $23.1 million in loans held-for-sale that were
generally available for its cash needs. The Company can also generate funds from
wholesale funding sources and collateralized borrowings. At September 30, 2022,
the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $473.7 million from the FHLB,
the Federal Reserve and correspondent bank Fed Funds lines of credit.

                                       60
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its
own liquidity. In addition to its operating expenses, the Company is responsible
for paying any dividends declared to its common shareholders and interest and
principal on outstanding debt. The Company's primary sources of funds are cash
maintained at the holding company level and dividends from the Bank, the payment
of which is subject to regulatory limits. At September 30, 2022, the Company, on
an unconsolidated basis, had $25.7 million in cash generally available for its
cash needs, which is in excess of its current annual regular shareholder
dividend and operating expenses.

The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing financial
commitments, including withdrawals by depositors, credit commitments to
borrowers, operating expenses and capital expenditures. At September 30, 2022,
approved outstanding loan commitments, including unused lines of credit and

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures


This Management's Discussion and Analysis contains financial information
determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial
measures, specifically tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible book
value per common share, tangible common equity to tangible assets, average
tangible common equity, return on average tangible common equity, total interest
income - FTE, adjusted total interest income - FTE, net interest income - FTE,
adjusted net interest income, adjusted net interest income - FTE, net interest
margin - FTE, adjusted net interest margin, adjusted net interest margin - FTE,
provision (benefit) for loan losses, excluding tax refund advance loans, average
loans, excluding tax refund advance loans, net (recoveries) charge-offs to
average loans, excluding tax refund advance loans, loans, excluding PPP loans,
allowance for loan losses to loans, excluding PPP loans, adjusted noninterest
expense, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted income tax provision,
adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on
average assets, adjusted return on average shareholders' equity, adjusted return
on average tangible common equity, adjusted effective income tax rate, income
before income taxes, excluding tax refund advance loans, income tax provision,
excluding tax refund advance loans, and net income, excluding tax refund advance
loans are used by the Company's management to measure the strength of its
capital and analyze profitability, including its ability to generate earnings on
tangible capital invested by its shareholders. The Company also believes that it
is a standard practice in the banking industry to present total interest income,
net interest income and net interest margin on a fully-taxable equivalent basis,
as those measures provide useful information for peer comparisons. Although the
Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater
understanding of its business, they should not be considered a substitute for
financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily
comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that may be presented by other
companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the following table
for the last five completed fiscal quarters and the nine months ended September
30, 2022 and 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no material changes in the Company’s critical accounting
policies or estimates from those disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2021.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 15 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into financial
transactions to extend credit, interest rate swap agreements and forms of
commitments that may be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. Interest rate
swaps are arranged to receive hedge accounting treatment and are classified as
either fair value or cash flow hedges. Fair value hedges are purchased to
convert certain fixed rate assets to floating rate. Cash flow hedges are used to
convert certain variable rate liabilities into fixed rate liabilities. At both
September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had interest rate swaps
with notional amounts of $260.0 million. Additionally, we enter into forward
contracts related to our mortgage banking business to hedge the exposures we
have from commitments to extend new residential mortgage loans to our customers
and from our mortgage loans held-for-sale. At September 30, 2022 and
December 31, 2021, the Company had commitments to sell residential real estate
loans of $27.8 million and $72.8 million, respectively. These contracts mature
in less than one year. Refer to Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial
statements for additional information about derivative financial instruments.
