FULTON FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation have been prepared in conformity with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The Corporation evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing of this Form 10-Q with the SEC.

CECL Adoption

On January 1, 2020, the Corporation adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The Corporation adopted CECL using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, net of investments in leases and OBS credit exposures. The Corporation recorded an increase of $58.3 million to the ACL on January 1, 2020 as a result of the adoption of CECL. Retained earnings decreased $43.8 million and deferred tax assets increased by $12.4 million. Included in the $58.3 million increase to the ACL was $2.1 million for certain OBS credit exposures that was previously recognized in other liabilities before the adoption of CECL.

CARES Act and Consolidated Appropriations Act - 2021

On March 27, 2020 the CARES Act was signed into law. The CARES Act includes an option for financial institutions to suspend the requirements of GAAP for certain loan modifications that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR. Certain conditions must be met with respect to the loan modification including that the modification is related to COVID-19 and the modified loan was not more than 30 days past due on December 31, 2019. On December 27, 2020, the 2021 Consolidated Appropriations Act was signed into law and this Act extended the relief for TDR treatment that was set to expire on December 31, 2020 to the earlier of 60 days after the national emergency termination date or January 1, 2022. The Corporation is applying the option under the CARES act for all loan modifications that qualify.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2021, the Corporation adopted ASC Update 2019-12 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The Corporation adopted this standards update effective with its March 31, 2021 quarterly report on Form 10-Q and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2021, the Corporation adopted ASC Update 2021-01 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). This update permits entities to apply optional expedients in Topic 848 to derivative instruments modified because of LIBOR transition affected by changes to the interest rates used for discounting, margining or contract price alignment due to reference rate reform. This update was effective upon issuance and entities may elect to apply the guidance to modifications either retrospectively, as of any date from the beginning of any interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively to new modifications from any date in an interim period that includes or is subsequent to January 7, 2021. The Corporation adopted this standards update retrospectively effective with its March 31, 2021 quarterly report on Form 10-Q and the adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the 2020 consolidated financial statements and notes have been reclassified to conform to the 2021 presentation.

NOTE 2 – Restrictions on Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Bank is required to maintain reserves against its deposit liabilities. Prior to March 2020, reserves were in the form of cash and balances with the FRB. The FRB suspended cash reserve requirements effective March 26, 2020.

In addition, cash collateral is posted by the Corporation with counterparties to secure derivative and other contracts. The amounts of such cash collateral as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $269.6 million and $408.1 million, respectively.

(1) No HTM securities were in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2020.

The Corporation’s collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed securities have contractual terms that generally do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. The change in fair value of these securities is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality. The Corporation does not have the intent to sell and does not believe it will more likely than not be required to sell any of these securities prior to a recovery of their fair value to amortized cost. Therefore, the Corporation does not have an ACL for these investments as of June 30, 2021.

Based on management’s evaluations, no ACL was required for municipal securities, corporate debt securities or ARCs as of June 30, 2021. The Corporation does not have the intent to sell and does not believe it will more likely than not be required to sell any of these securities prior to a recovery of their fair value to amortized cost, which may be at maturity.

The Corporation segments its loan portfolio by "portfolio segments," as presented in the table above. Certain portfolio segments are further disaggregated by "class segment" for the purpose of estimating credit losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the measurement of its ACL. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any outstanding accrued interest is reversed against interest income.

Loans: The ACL for loans is an estimate of the expected losses to be realized over the life of the loans in the portfolio. The ACL is determined for two distinct categories of loans: 1) loans evaluated collectively for expected credit losses and 2) loans evaluated individually for expected credit losses.

Loans Evaluated Collectively: Loans evaluated collectively for expected credit losses include loans on accrual status, excluding accruing TDRs, and loans initially evaluated individually, but determined not to have enhanced credit risk characteristics. This category includes loans on non-accrual status and TDRs where the total commitment amount is less than $1 million. The ACL is estimated by applying a PD and LGD to the EAD at the loan level. In order to determine the PD, LGD, and EAD calculation inputs:

Loans are aggregated into pools based on similar risk characteristics.
The PD and LGD rates are determined by historical credit loss experience for each pool of loans.
The loan segment PD rates are estimated using six econometric regression models that use the Corporation’s historical credit loss experience and incorporate reasonable and supportable economic forecasts for various macroeconomic variables that are statistically correlated with expected loss behavior in the loan segment.
The reasonable and supportable forecast for each macroeconomic variable is sourced from an external third party and is applied over the contractual term of the Corporation’s loan portfolio. The Corporation’s economic forecast considers the general health of the economy, the interest rate environment, real estate pricing and market risk.
A single baseline forecast scenario is used for each macroeconomic variable.
The loan segment lifetime LGD rates are estimated using a loss rate approach based on the Corporation’s historical charge-off experience and the balance at the time of loan default.
The LGD rates are adjusted for the Corporation’s recovery experience.
To calculate the EAD, the corporation estimates contractual cash flows over the remaining life of each loan. Certain cash flow assumptions are established for each loan using maturity date, amortization schedule and interest rate. In addition, a prepayment rate is used in determining the EAD estimate.
Loans Evaluated Individually: Loans evaluated individually for expected credit losses include loans on non-accrual status and TDRs where the commitment amount equals or exceeds $1.0 million. The required ACL for such loans is determined using either the present value of expected future cash flows, observable market price or the fair value of collateral.
14


Loans evaluated individually may have specific allocations of the ACL assigned if the measured value of the loan using one of the noted techniques is less than its current carrying value. For loans measured using the fair value of collateral, if the analysis determines that sufficient collateral value would be available for repayment of the debt, then no allocations would be assigned to those loans. Collateral could be in the form of real estate or business assets, such as accounts receivable or inventory, in the case of commercial and industrial loans. Commercial and industrial loans may also be secured by real estate.

For loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through appraisals performed by third-party appraisers, discounted to arrive at expected net sale proceeds. For collateral dependent loans, estimated real estate fair values are also net of estimated selling costs. When a real estate secured loan is impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including: the age of the most recent appraisal; the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal; the condition of the property; the Corporation’s experience and knowledge of the real estate market; the purpose of the loan; market factors; payment status; the strength of any guarantors; and the existence and age of other indications of value such as broker price opinions, among others. The Corporation generally obtains updated appraisals performed by third-party appraisers for impaired loans secured predominantly by real estate every 12 months.

When updated appraisals are not obtained for loans secured by real estate, fair values are estimated based on the original appraisal values, as long as the original appraisal indicated an acceptable loan-to-value position and there has not been a significant deterioration in the collateral value since the original appraisal was performed.

For loans with principal balances greater than or equal to $1.0 million secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable or inventory, estimated fair values are determined based on borrower financial statements, inventory listings, accounts receivable agings or borrowing base certificates. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets. Liquidation or collection discounts are applied to these assets based upon existing loan evaluation policies.

Management regularly reviews loans in the portfolio to assess credit quality indicators and to determine appropriate loan classification. For commercial loans, commercial mortgages and construction loans to commercial borrowers, an internal risk rating process is used. The Corporation believes that internal risk ratings are the most relevant credit quality indicator for these types of loans. The migration of loans through the various internal risk rating categories is a significant component of the ACL methodology for these loans, which bases the PD on this migration. Assigning risk ratings involves judgment. Risk ratings may be changed based on ongoing monitoring procedures, or if specific loan review assessments identify a deterioration or an improvement in the loan.

The ACL is reviewed to evaluate its appropriateness in relation to the overall risk profile of the loan portfolio. The Corporation considers risk factors such as: local and national economic conditions; trends in delinquencies and non-accrual loans; the diversity of borrower industry types; and the composition of the portfolio by loan type.

Qualitative and Other Adjustments to ACL: In addition to the quantitative credit loss estimates for loans evaluated collectively, qualitative factors that may not be fully captured in the quantitative results are also evaluated. These qualitative factors include changes in lending policy, the nature and volume of the portfolio, overall business conditions in the economy, credit concentrations, specific industry risks, competition, model imprecision and legal and regulatory requirements. Qualitative adjustments are judgmental and are based on management’s knowledge of the portfolio and the markets in which the Corporation operates. Qualitative adjustments are evaluated and approved on a quarterly basis. Additionally, the ACL includes other allowance categories that are not directly incorporated in the quantitative results. These categories include but are not limited to loans-in-process, trade acceptances and overdrafts.

OBS Credit Exposures: The ACL for OBS credit exposures is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. This portion of the ACL represents management’s estimate of expected losses in its unfunded loan commitments and other OBS credit exposures. The ACL specific to unfunded commitments is determined by estimating future draws and applying the expected loss rates on those draws. Future draws are based on historical averages of utilization rates (i.e., the likelihood of draws taken). The ACL for OBS credit exposures is increased or decreased by charges or reductions to expense, through the provision for credit losses.

Several factors as of the end of the second quarter of 2021 in comparison to the end of the fourth quarter of 2020, including improved economic forecasts, reduced the level of the ACL determined to be necessary as of June 30, 2021, resulting in the negative provision for credit losses for the both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The higher provision expense during the first six months of 2020 was largely driven by the overall downturn in economic forecasts due to COVID-19, resulting in higher expected future credit losses under CECL. Qualitative adjustments during the first six months of 2020 increased compared to those at the time of the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020 primarily as a result of uncertainties related to the economic impact of COVID-19. These uncertainties included consideration for the future performance of loans that received deferrals or forbearances as a result of COVID-19 and the impact COVID-19 had on certain industries where the quantitative models did not appear to be fully capturing the appropriate level of risk at that time. PPP loans issued are fully guaranteed by the SBA and, as such, no ACL was recorded against the PPP loan portfolio.
Non-accrual Loans

All loans individually evaluated for impairment are measured for losses on a quarterly basis. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, substantially all of the Corporation’s individually evaluated loans with total commitments greater than or equal to $1.0 million were measured based on the estimated fair value of each loan’s collateral, if any. Collateral could be in the form of real estate, in the case of commercial mortgages and construction loans, or business assets, such as accounts receivable
17


or inventory, in the case of commercial and industrial loans. Commercial and industrial loans may also be secured by real estate.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, approximately 81% and 83%, respectively, of loans evaluated individually for impairment with principal balances greater than or equal to $1.0 million, whose primary collateral consisted of real estate, were measured at estimated fair value using appraisals performed by state certified third-party appraisers that had been updated in the preceding 12 months.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were $61.2 million and $68.6 million, respectively, of non-accrual loans that did not have a related allowance for credit losses. The estimated fair values of the collateral securing these loans exceeded their carrying amount, or the loans were previously charged down to realizable collateral values. Accordingly, no specific valuation allowance was considered to be necessary.

Asset Quality

Maintaining an appropriate ACL is dependent on various factors, including the ability to identify potential problem loans in a timely manner. For commercial construction, residential construction, commercial and industrial, and commercial real estate, an internal risk rating process is used. The Corporation believes that internal risk ratings are the most relevant credit quality indicator for these types of loans. The migration of loans through the various internal risk rating categories is a significant component of the ACL methodology for these loans, which bases the probability of default on this migration. Assigning risk ratings involves judgment. The Corporation's loan review officers provide a separate assessment of risk rating accuracy. Risk ratings may be changed based on the ongoing monitoring procedures performed by loan officers or credit administration staff or if specific loan review assessments identify a deterioration or an improvement in the loans.

The following is a summary of the Corporation's internal risk rating categories:

Pass: These loans do not currently pose undue credit risk and can range from the highest to average quality, depending     on the degree of potential risk.

Special Mention: These loans have a heightened credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a classification of Substandard. Loans in this category are currently acceptable but, are nevertheless potentially weak.

Substandard or Lower: These loans are inadequately protected by current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower. There exists a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the normal repayment of the debt.

The Corporation does not assign internal risk ratings to smaller balance, homogeneous loans, such as home equity, residential mortgage, construction loans to individuals secured by residential real estate, consumer and equipment lease financing. For these loans, the most relevant credit quality indicator is delinquency status. The migration of loans through the various delinquency status categories is a significant component of the ACL methodology for those loans, which bases the PD on this migration.

Collateral-Dependent Loans

A financial asset is considered to be collateral-dependent when the debtor is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale or operation of the collateral. For all classes of financial assets deemed collateral-dependent, the Corporation elected the practical expedient to estimate expected credit losses based on the collateral’s fair value less cost to sell. In most cases, the Corporation records a partial charge-off to reduce the loan’s carrying value to the collateral’s fair value less cost to sell. Substantially all of the collateral supporting collateral-dependent financial assets consists
23


of various types of real estate, including residential properties, commercial properties, such as retail centers, office buildings, and lodging, agriculture land, and vacant land.

MSRs represent the economic value of contractual rights to service mortgage loans that have been sold. The total portfolio of mortgage loans serviced by the Corporation for unrelated third parties was $4.4 billion and $4.7 billion as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Actual and expected prepayments of the underlying mortgage loans can impact the fair values of the MSRs. The Corporation accounts for MSRs at the lower of amortized cost or fair value.

The fair value of MSRs is estimated by discounting the estimated cash flows from servicing income, net of expense, over the expected life of the underlying loans at a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with these assets. Expected life is based on the contractual terms of the loans, as adjusted for prepayment projections. The fair values of MSRs were $29.5 million and $28.2 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Based on its fair value analysis as of June 30, 2021, the Corporation determined that a $2.2 million increase to the valuation allowance was required for the three months ended June 30, 2021, resulting in a total valuation allowance of $6.6 million as of June 30, 2021. The $2.2 million increase to the valuation allowance was recorded as a reduction to mortgage banking income on the consolidated statements of income for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Based on its fair value analysis as of March 31, 2021 the Corporation had determined that a $6.1 million reduction to the valuation allowance was required as of March 31, 2021; the net $3.9 million decrease to the valuation allowance was recorded as an increase to mortgage banking income on the consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

NOTE 6 – Derivative Financial Instruments

The Corporation manages its exposure to certain interest rate and foreign currency risks through the use of derivatives. Certain of the Corporation's outstanding derivative contracts are designated as hedges, and none are entered into for speculative purposes. The Corporation does enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risks, even if hedge accounting does not apply or the Corporation elects not to apply hedge accounting.

The Corporation records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Corporation has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. For derivatives where hedge accounting is applied, changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. For derivatives where hedge accounting does not apply, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings as components of interest income, non-interest income or non-interest expense on the consolidated statements of income.

25


Derivative contracts create counterparty credit risk with both the Corporation's customers and with institutional derivative counterparties. The Corporation manages counterparty credit risk through its credit approval processes, monitoring procedures and obtaining adequate collateral, when the Corporation determines it is appropriate to do so and in accordance with counterparty contracts.

For each of the derivatives, gross derivative assets and liabilities are recorded in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets. Related gains and losses on these derivative instruments are recorded in other changes, net on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives

In connection with its mortgage banking activities, the Corporation enters into commitments to originate certain fixed-rate residential mortgage loans for customers, also referred to as interest rate locks. In addition, the Corporation enters into forward commitments for the future sales or purchases of mortgage-backed securities to or from third-party counterparties to hedge the effect of changes in interest rates on the values of both the interest rate locks and mortgage loans held for sale. Forward sales commitments may also be in the form of commitments to sell individual mortgage loans at a fixed price at a future date. The amount necessary to settle each interest rate lock is based on the price that secondary market investors would pay for loans with similar characteristics, including interest rate and term, as of the date fair value is measured.

Interest Rate Swaps - Non-Designated Hedges

The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers to meet their interest rate risk management needs. The Corporation simultaneously enters into interest rate swaps with dealer counterparties, with identical notional amounts and terms. The net result of these interest rate swaps is that the customer pays a fixed rate of interest and the Corporation receives a floating rate. As the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. The Corporation’s existing credit derivatives result from participations in interest rate swaps provided by external lenders as part of loan participation arrangements, therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Corporation’s assets or liabilities. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Corporation provides to certain lenders which participate in loans. The Corporation is required to clear all eligible interest rate swap contracts with a clearing agent and is subject to the regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Corporation’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to reduce volatility in net interest income and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Corporation primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. During the first quarter of 2021, the Corporation entered into interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing floating rate loans. These hedge contracts involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Corporation making floating-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the unrealized gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCI and subsequently reclassified into interest income in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest income as interest payments are made on the Corporation’s variable-rate liabilities. During the next twelve months, the Corporation estimates that an additional $3.4 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest income.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Corporation enters into foreign exchange contracts to accommodate the needs of its customers. Foreign exchange contracts are commitments to buy or sell foreign currency on a specific date at a contractual price. The Corporation limits its foreign exchange exposure with customers by entering into contracts with institutional counterparties to mitigate its foreign exchange risk. The Corporation also holds certain amounts of foreign currency with international correspondent banks ("Foreign Currency Nostro Accounts"). The Corporation limits the total overnight net foreign currency open positions, which is defined as an aggregate of all outstanding contracts and Foreign Currency Nostro Account balances, to $500,000.

Balance Sheet Offsetting

Although certain financial assets and liabilities may be eligible for offset on the consolidated balance sheets because they are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements, the Corporation elects to not offset such qualifying assets and liabilities.

The Corporation is a party to interest rate swaps with financial institution counterparties and customers. Under these agreements, the Corporation has the right to net-settle multiple contracts with the same counterparty in the event of default on, or termination of, any one contract. Cash collateral is posted by the party with a net liability position in accordance with contract thresholds and can be used to settle the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements in the event of default. A daily settlement occurs through a clearing agent for changes in the fair value of centrally cleared derivatives. Not all of the derivatives are required to be cleared daily through a clearing agent. As a result, the total fair values of interest rate swap derivative assets and liabilities recognized on the consolidated balance sheet are not equal and offsetting.

The Corporation is also a party to foreign currency exchange contracts with financial institution counterparties, under which the Corporation has the right to net-settle multiple contracts with the same counterparty in the event of default on, or termination of, any one contract. As with interest rate swaps, collateral is posted by the party with a net liability position in accordance with contract thresholds and can be used to settle the fair value of the foreign currency exchange contracts in the event of default.

The Corporation also enters into agreements with customers in which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities, referred to as repurchase agreements. Under these agreements, the Corporation may transfer legal control over the assets but still maintain effective control through agreements that both entitle and obligate the Corporation to repurchase the assets. Therefore, repurchase agreements are reported as secured borrowings, classified in short-term borrowings on the consolidated balance sheets, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain classified with AFS investment securities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation has no intention of setting off these amounts, therefore, these repurchase agreements are not eligible for offset.

As of June 30, 2021, the fair value of derivatives were in a net asset position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements and as such the Corporation did not post any collateral to its derivative counterparty.

(2)Amounts represent cash collateral received from the counterparty or posted by the Corporation on interest rate swap transactions and foreign exchange contracts with financial institution counterparties. Interest rate swaps with customers are collateralized by the same collateral securing the underlying loans to those borrowers. Cash and securities collateral amounts are included in the table only to the extent of the net derivative fair values.


NOTE 7 – Tax Credit Investments

TCIs are primarily for investments promoting qualified affordable housing projects and investments in community development entities. Investments in these projects generate a return primarily through the realization of federal income tax credits and deductions for operating losses over a specified time period.

The TCIs are included in other assets, with any unfunded equity commitments recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Certain TCIs qualify for the proportional amortization method and are amortized over the period the Corporation expects to receive the tax credits, with the expense included within income taxes on the consolidated statements of income. Other TCIs are accounted for under the equity method of accounting, with amortization included within non-interest expense on the consolidated statements of income. This amortization includes equity in partnership losses and the systematic write-down of investments over the period in which income tax credits are earned. All of the TCIs are evaluated for impairment at the end of each reporting period.

NOTE 9 – Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value using the following three categories (from highest to lowest priority):

Level 1 – Inputs that represent quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs that represent quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, or quoted prices for identical instruments in non-active markets. Also includes valuation techniques whose inputs are derived principally from observable market data other than quoted prices, such as interest rates or other market-corroborated means.
Level 3 – Inputs that are largely unobservable, as little or no market data exists for the instrument being valued.








33


All assets and liabilities measured at fair value on both a recurring and nonrecurring basis have been categorized into the above three levels. The following tables present assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and reported on the consolidated balance sheets:

The valuation techniques used to measure fair value for the items in the preceding tables are as follows:
Loans held for sale – This category includes mortgage loans held for sale that are measured at fair value. Fair values as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were based on the price that secondary market investors were offering for loans with similar characteristics. See "Note 6 - Derivative Financial Instruments" for details related to the Corporation’s election to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.
Available for sale investment securities – Included in this asset category are debt securities. Level 2 investment securities are valued by a third-party pricing service. The pricing service uses pricing models that vary based on asset class and incorporate available market information, including quoted prices of investment securities with similar characteristics. Because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, pricing models use available information, as applicable, through processes such as benchmark yield curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing.
Standard market inputs include: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data, including market research publications. For certain security types, additional inputs may be used, or some of the standard market inputs may not be applicable.
U.S. Government securities – These securities are classified as Level 1. Fair values are based on quoted prices with active markets.
U.S. Government sponsored agency securities/State and municipal securities/Collateralized mortgage obligations/Residential mortgage-backed securities/Commercial mortgage-backed securities – These debt securities are classified as Level 2. Fair values are determined by a third-party pricing service, as detailed above.

Corporate debt securities – This category consists of subordinated debt and senior debt issued by financial institutions ($367.0 million at June 30, 2021 and $362.8 million at December 31, 2020) and other corporate debt issued by non-financial institutions ($4.3 million at June 30, 2021 and $4.4 million at December 31, 2020).

Auction rate securities – Due to their illiquidity, ARCs are classified as Level 3 investment securities and are valued through the use of an expected cash flows model prepared by a third-party valuation expert. The assumptions used in preparing the expected cash flows model include estimates for coupon rates, time to maturity and market rates of return. The most significant unobservable input to the expected cash flows model is an assumed return to market liquidity sometime in the next five years. If the assumed return to market liquidity was lengthened beyond the next five years, this would result in a decrease in the fair value of these ARCs. The Corporation believes that the trusts underlying the ARCs will self-liquidate as student loans are repaid. All of the loans underlying the ARCs have principal payments which are guaranteed by the federal government. Level 3 fair values are tested by management through the performance of a trend analysis of the market price and discount rate. Changes in the price and discount rates are compared to changes in market data, including bond ratings, parity ratios, balances and delinquency levels.
Investments held in Rabbi Trust – This category consists of mutual funds that are held in trust for employee deferred compensation plans that the Corporation has elected to measure at fair value. Shares of mutual funds are valued based on net asset value, which represent quoted market prices for the underlying shares held in the mutual funds, and as such, are classified as Level 1.
Derivative assets – Fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts classified as Level 1 assets ($232,000 at June 30, 2021 and $323,000 at December 31, 2020). The mutual funds and foreign exchange prices used to measure these items at fair value are based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 assets, representing the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives in the form of interest rate locks and forward commitments with secondary market investors ($3.6 million at June 30, 2021 and $8.0 million at December 31, 2020) and the fair value of interest rate swaps ($212.1 million at June 30, 2021 and $331.0 million at December 31, 2020). The fair values of the Corporation’s interest rate locks, forward commitments and interest rate swaps represent the amounts that would be required to settle the derivative financial instruments at the balance sheet date. See "Note 6 - Derivative Financial Instruments," for additional information.

Deferred compensation liabilities – Fair value of amounts due to employees under deferred compensation plans, classified as Level 1 liabilities and are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of these liabilities are determined in the same manner as the related assets, as described under the heading "Investments held in Rabbi Trust" above.

Derivative liabilities – Level 1 liabilities, representing the fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts ($193,000 at June 30, 2021 and $280,000 at December 31, 2020).

Level 2 liabilities, representing the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives in the form of interest rate locks and forward commitments with secondary market investors ($221,000 at June 30, 2021 and $2.3 million at December 31, 2020) and the fair value of interest rate swaps ($107.2 million at June 30, 2021 and $165.2 million at December 31, 2020).
The fair values of these liabilities are determined in the same manner as the related assets, as described under the heading "Derivative assets" above.

Certain assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, but are subject to fair value measurement in certain circumstances, such as upon their acquisition or when there is evidence of impairment. The following table presents Level 3 financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:
  June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
  (in thousands)
Loans, net $ 129,542  $ 116,584 
OREO 2,779  4,178 
MSRs (1)

Total assets $ 161,783  $ 149,007 
(1)Amounts shown are estimated fair value. MSRs are recorded on the Corporation's consolidated balance sheets at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. See "Note 5 - Mortgage Servicing Rights" for additional information.
36


The valuation techniques used to measure fair value for the items in the table above are as follows:
Net Loans – This category consists of loans that were individually evaluated for impairment and have been classified as Level 3 assets. See "Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses," for additional details.
OREO – This category consists of OREO classified as Level 3 assets, for which the fair values were based on estimated selling prices less estimated selling costs for similar assets in active markets.
MSRs - This category consists of MSRs, which were initially recorded at fair value upon the sale of residential mortgage loans to secondary market investors, and subsequently carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. MSRs are amortized as a reduction to servicing income over the estimated lives of the underlying loans. MSRs are stratified by product type and evaluated for impairment by comparing each stratum's carrying amount to its estimated fair value. Fair values are determined at the end of each quarter through a discounted cash flows valuation performed by a third-party valuation expert. Significant inputs to the valuation included expected net servicing income, the discount rate and the expected life of the underlying loans. Expected life is based on the contractual terms of the loans, as adjusted for prepayment projections. The weighted average annual constant prepayment rate and the weighted average discount rate used in the June 30, 2021 valuation were 17.8% and 9.0%, respectively. Management reviews the reasonableness of the significant inputs to the third-party valuation in comparison to market data. See "Note 5 - Mortgage Servicing Rights," for additional information.

In 2007, the Corporation received the Visa Shares in connection with a corporate restructuring undertaken by Visa, Inc. in contemplation of its initial public offering. These securities were considered equity securities without readily determinable fair values. As such, the approximately 133,000 Visa Shares owned were carried at a zero cost basis. During the first quarter of 2021, the Corporation sold all of its Visa Shares and recognized a $34.0 million gain.
The following tables present the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments for the current period. A general description of the methods and assumptions used to estimate such fair values follows:

Fair values of financial instruments are significantly affected by the assumptions used, principally the timing of future cash flows and discount rates. Because assumptions are inherently subjective in nature, the estimated fair values cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent market quotes and, in many cases, the estimated fair values could not necessarily be realized in an immediate sale or settlement of the instrument. The aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent management’s estimate of the underlying value of the Corporation.
For short-term financial instruments, defined as those with remaining maturities of 90 days or less, and excluding those recorded at fair value on the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheets, book value was considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

The following instruments are predominantly short-term:
Assets    Liabilities
Cash and cash equivalents    Demand and savings deposits
Accrued interest receivable    Short-term borrowings
   Accrued interest payable

FRB and FHLB stock represent restricted investments and are carried at cost on the consolidated balance sheets, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

As of June 30, 2021, fair values for loans and time deposits were estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates, as adjusted for liquidity considerations, at which similar loans would be made to borrowers and similar deposits would be issued to customers for the same remaining maturities. Fair values of loans also include estimated credit losses that would be assumed in a market transaction, which represents estimated exit prices.

Brokered deposits consists of demand and saving deposits, which are classified as Level 1, and time deposits, which are classified as Level 2. The fair value of these deposits are determined in a manner consistent with the respective type of deposits discussed above.

NOTE 10 – Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

Diluted net income per share is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the incremental number of shares added as a result of converting common stock equivalents, calculated using the treasury stock method. The Corporation’s common stock equivalents consist of outstanding stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, and PSUs. PSUs are required to be included in weighted average diluted shares outstanding if performance measures, as defined in each PSU award agreement, are met as of the end of the period.

A reconciliation of weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share follows (in thousands, except per share data):
Three months ended June 30 Six months ended June 30
  2021 2020 2021 2020

NOTE 11 – Stock-Based Compensation

The Corporation grants equity awards to employees in the form of stock options, restricted stock, RSUs or PSUs under its Amended and Restated Equity and Cash Incentive Compensation Plan ("Employee Equity Plan"). Recent grants of equity awards under the Employee Equity Plan have generally been limited to RSUs and PSUs. In addition, employees may purchase stock under the Corporation’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The fair value of equity awards granted to employees is recognized as compensation expense over the period during which employees are required to provide service in exchange for such awards. Compensation expense for PSUs is also recognized over the period during which employees are required to provide service in exchange for such awards, however, compensation expense may vary based on the expectations for actual performance relative to defined performance measures.

The Corporation also grants equity awards to non-employee members of its board of directors and subsidiary bank boards of directors under the 2011 Directors’ Equity Participation Plan, which was amended and approved by shareholders as the Amended and Restated Directors’ Equity Participation Plan in 2019 ("Directors’ Plan"). Under the Directors’ Plan, the Corporation can grant equity awards to non-employee holding company and subsidiary bank directors in the form of stock options, restricted stock, RSUs or common stock. Recent grants of equity awards under the Directors’ Plan have been limited to RSUs.

Equity awards under the Employee Equity Plan are generally granted annually and become fully vested over or after a three-year vesting period. The vesting period for non-performance-based awards represents the period during which employees are required to provide service in exchange for such awards. Equity awards under the Directors' Plan are generally granted annually and become fully vested after a one-year vesting period. Certain events, as defined in the Employee Equity Plan and the Directors' Plan, result in the acceleration of the vesting of equity awards.

Fair values for RSUs and a majority of PSUs are based on the trading price of the Corporation’s stock on the date of grant and earn dividend equivalents during the vesting period, which are forfeitable if the awards do not vest. The fair value of certain PSUs are estimated through the use of the Monte Carlo valuation methodology as of the date of grant.

As of June 30, 2021, the Employee Equity Plan had 8.8 million shares reserved for future grants through 2023, and the Directors’ Plan had approximately 126,000 shares reserved for future grants through 2029.

The Corporation recognizes the funded status of its Pension Plan and Postretirement Plan on the consolidated balance sheets and recognizes the change in that funded status through other comprehensive income.

NOTE 13 – Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.

Those financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheets. Exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is represented by the outstanding amount of those instruments.

The Corporation records a reserve for unfunded lending commitments, included in ACL - OBS credit exposures, which represents management’s estimate of credit losses associated with unused commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the ACL - OBS credit exposures for unfunded lending commitments was $10.1 million and $9.1 million, respectively. See "Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses," for additional details.

The following table presents the Corporation's commitments to extend credit and letters of credit:
June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
  (in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit $ 9,003,425  $ 8,651,055 
Standby letters of credit 314,921  298,750 
Commercial letters of credit 56,862  56,229 

Residential Lending

The Corporation originates and sells residential mortgages to secondary market investors. The Corporation provides customary representations and warranties to secondary market investors that specify, among other things, that the loans have been underwritten to the standards of the secondary market investor. The Corporation may be required to repurchase specific loans, or reimburse the investor for a credit loss incurred on a sold loan if it is determined that the representations and warranties have not been met. Under some agreements with secondary market investors, the Corporation may have additional credit exposure beyond customary representations and warranties, based on the specific terms of those agreements.

The Corporation maintains a reserve for estimated losses related to loans sold to investors in other liabilities. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the total reserve for losses on residential mortgage loans sold was $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, including reserves for both representation and warranty and credit loss exposures. In addition, a component of ACL - OBS credit exposures of $4.7 million and $5.3 million, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, related to additional credit exposures for potential loan repurchases.

Legal Proceedings

The Corporation is involved in various pending and threatened claims and other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business activities. The Corporation evaluates the possible impact of these matters, taking into consideration the most recent information available. A loss reserve is established for those matters for which the Corporation believes a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. Once established, the reserve is adjusted as appropriate to reflect any subsequent developments. Actual losses with respect to any such matter may be more or less than the amount estimated by the Corporation. For matters where a loss is not probable, or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated by the Corporation, no loss reserve is established.

In addition, from time to time, the Corporation is involved in investigations or other forms of regulatory or governmental inquiry covering a range of possible issues and, in some cases, these may be part of similar reviews of the specified activities of other companies. These inquiries or investigations could lead to administrative, civil or criminal proceedings involving the Corporation, and could result in fines, penalties, restitution, other types of sanctions or restrictions, or the need for the Corporation to undertake remedial actions, or to alter its business, financial or accounting practices. The Corporation’s practice is to cooperate fully with regulatory and governmental inquiries and investigations.

As of the date of this report, the Corporation believes that any liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, which may result from the final outcomes of pending legal proceedings, or regulatory or governmental inquiries or investigations, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Corporation. However, legal proceedings, inquiries and investigations are often unpredictable, and it is possible that the ultimate resolution of any such matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the Corporation’s results of operations in any future period, depending, in part, upon the size of the loss or liability imposed and the operating results for the period, and could have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s business. In addition, regardless of the ultimate outcome of any such legal proceeding, inquiry or investigation, any such matter could cause the Corporation to incur additional expenses, which could be significant, and possibly material, to the Corporation’s results of operations in any future period.

Kress v. Fulton Bank, N.A.

On October 15, 2019, a former Fulton Bank teller supervisor, D. Kress filed a putative collective and class action lawsuit on behalf of herself and other teller supervisors, tellers, and other similar non-exempt employees in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, D. Kress v. Fulton Bank, N.A., Case No. 1:19-cv-18985. Fulton Bank accepted summons without a formal service of process on January 20, 2020. The lawsuit alleges that Fulton Bank did not record or otherwise account for the amount of time D. Kress and putative collective and class members spent conducting branch opening security procedures. The allegation is that, as a result, Fulton Bank did not properly compensate those employees for their regular and overtime wages. The lawsuit alleges that by doing so, Fulton violated: (i) the federal Fair Labor Standards Act and seeks back overtime wages
41


for a period of three years, liquidated damages and attorney fees and costs; (ii) the New Jersey State Wage and Hour Law and seeks back overtime wages for a period of six years, treble damages and attorney fees and costs; and (iii) the New Jersey Wage Payment Law and seeks back wages for a period of six years, treble damages and attorney fees and costs. The lawsuit also asserts New Jersey common law claims seeking compensatory damages and interest. The Corporation and counsel representing plaintiffs ("Plaintiffs’ Counsel") have reached and executed a formal Settlement Agreement to resolve this lawsuit. Plaintiffs’ Counsel has filed a Motion for Preliminary Approval of Class and Collective Settlement and Provisional Certification of Settlement Class and Collective ("the Motion") with the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey ("the Court"). The Corporation is not able to provide any assurance that the Court will grant the Motion. If the Court does grant the Motion, the Settlement Agreement will be administered according to its terms and thereafter subject to final approval by the Court. The financial terms of the Settlement Agreement are not expected to be material to the Corporation. The Corporation established an accrued liability during the third quarter of 2020 for the costs expected to be incurred in connection with the Settlement Agreement.

NOTE 14 – Long-Term Borrowings

On March 30, 2021, pursuant to a cash tender offer, the Corporation purchased $75.0 million and $60.0 million of its subordinated notes which mature on November 15, 2024 and its senior notes which mature on March 16, 2022, respectively. The subordinated notes carry a fixed rate of 4.50% and an effective rate of 4.87% and the senior notes carry a fixed rate of 3.60% and an effective rate of 3.95%. The Corporation incurred $11.3 million in debt extinguishment costs and expensed $841,000 of unamortized discount costs. In addition, during the first quarter of 2021, the Corporation prepaid $536.0 million of long-term FHLB advances and incurred $20.9 million in prepayment penalties.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("Management’s Discussion") relates to Fulton Financial Corporation, a financial holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act and incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1982, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Management’s Discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other financial information presented in this report.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Corporation has made, and may continue to make, certain forward-looking statements with respect to its financial condition, results of operations and business. Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "may," "should," "will," "could," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," "continue," "anticipates," "believes," "plans," "expects," "future," "intends," "projects," the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements may include projections of, or guidance on, the Corporation's future financial performance, expected levels of future expenses, including future credit losses, anticipated growth strategies, descriptions of new business initiatives and anticipated trends in the Corporation's business or financial results.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts, nor assurance of future performance. Instead, they are based on current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of the Corporation's business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Corporation's control, and actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not unduly rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement is based only on information currently available and speaks only as of the date when made. The Corporation undertakes no obligation, other than as required by law, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Many factors could affect future financial results including, without limitation:

the impact of adverse conditions in the economy and financial markets on the performance of the Corporation’s loan portfolio and demand for the Corporation’s products and services;
the scope and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic, the Corporation’s participation in the PPP and other COVID-19 relief programs, and the direct and indirect impacts of the pandemic on the Corporation, its customers and third parties;
the determination of the ACL, which depends significantly upon assumptions and judgments with respect to a variety of factors, including the performance of the loan portfolio, the weighted-average remaining lives of different classifications of loans within the loan portfolio and current and forecasted economic conditions, among other factors;
increases in non-performing assets, which may require the Corporation to increase the allowance for credit losses, charge off loans and incur elevated collection and carrying costs related to such non-performing assets;
investment securities gains and losses, including other-than-temporary declines in the value of securities which may result in charges to earnings;
the effects of market interest rates, and the relative balances of interest rate-sensitive assets to interest rate-sensitive liabilities, on net interest margin and net interest income;
the planned phasing out of LIBOR as a benchmark reference rate;
the effects of changes in interest rates on demand for the Corporation’s products and services;
the effects of changes in interest rates or disruptions in liquidity markets on the Corporation’s sources of funding;
the effects of the extensive level of regulation and supervision to which the Corporation and Fulton Bank are subject;
the effects of the significant amounts of time and expense associated with regulatory compliance and risk management;
the potential for negative consequences resulting from regulatory violations, investigations and examinations, or failure to comply with the BSA, the Patriot Act and related AML requirements, including potential supervisory actions, the assessment of fines and penalties, the imposition of sanctions or restrictions, the need to undertake remedial actions and possible damage to the Corporation’s reputation;
the continuing impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on the Corporation’s business and results of operations;
the effects of, and uncertainty surrounding, new legislation, changes in regulation and government policy, which could result in significant changes in banking and financial services regulation;
the effects of actions by the federal government, including those of the Federal Reserve Board and other government agencies, that impact money supply and market interest rates;
the effects of changes in U.S. federal, state or local tax laws;
the effects of negative publicity on the Corporation’s reputation;
the effects of adverse outcomes in litigation and governmental or administrative proceedings;
43


the potential to incur losses in connection with repurchase and indemnification payments related to sold loans;
the Corporation’s ability to achieve its growth plans;
completed and potential acquisitions may affect costs and the Corporation may not be able to successfully integrate the acquired business or realize the anticipated benefits from such acquisitions;
the potential effects of climate change and related government policies on the Corporation’s business and results of operations;
the Corporation’s ability to implement, from time to time, measures intended to manage growth in non-interest expenses and improve the efficiency of its operations and realize the intended effects of those initiatives;
the effects of competition on deposit rates and growth, loan rates and growth and net interest margin;
the Corporation’s ability to manage the level of non-interest expenses, including salaries and employee benefits expenses, operating risk losses and goodwill impairment;
the effects of changes in accounting policies, standards, and interpretations on the Corporation’s reporting of its financial condition and results of operations;
the impact of operational risks, including the risk of human error, inadequate or failed internal processes and systems, computer and telecommunications systems failures, faulty or incomplete data and an inadequate risk management framework;
the impact of failures of third parties upon which the Corporation relies to perform in accordance with contractual arrangements;
the failure or circumvention of the Corporation’s system of internal controls;
the loss of, or failure to safeguard, confidential or proprietary information;
the Corporation’s failure to identify and to address cyber-security risks, including data breaches and cyber-attacks;
the Corporation’s ability to keep pace with technological changes;
the Corporation’s ability to attract and retain talented personnel;
capital and liquidity strategies, including the Corporation’s ability to comply with applicable capital and liquidity requirements, and the Corporation’s ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms;
the Corporation’s reliance on its subsidiaries for substantially all of its revenues and its ability to pay dividends or other distributions; and
the effects of any downgrade in the Corporation’s or Fulton Bank’s credit ratings on their borrowing costs or access to capital markets.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Corporation generates the majority of its revenue through net interest income, or the difference between interest earned on loans, investments and other interest-earning assets, and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Growth in net interest income is dependent upon balance sheet growth and maintaining or increasing the net interest margin, which is FTE net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The Corporation also generates revenue through fees earned on the various services and products offered to its customers and through gains on sales of assets, such as loans, investments, or properties. Offsetting these revenue sources are provisions for credit losses on loans and OBS credit risks, non-interest expenses and income taxes.

COVID-19 Pandemic

Beginning in first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused substantial disruptions in economic and social activity, both globally and in the United States. The spread of COVID-19, and related governmental actions to mandate or encourage temporary closures of businesses, quarantines, social distancing, "stay at home" orders and other restrictions on in-person operations and activities, have caused severe disruptions in the U.S. economy, which, in turn, disrupted the business, activities, and operations of the Corporation’s customers, as well as the Corporation’s own business and operations. The resulting impacts of the pandemic on consumers, including elevated levels of unemployment and changes in consumer behavior, as well as disruptions in national and global supply chains, have continued to cause changes in consumer and business spending, borrowing needs and saving habits, which have and will likely continue to affect the demand for loans and other products and services the Corporation offers, as well as the creditworthiness of its borrowers.

While economic activity has rebounded as much of the national economy has “reopened,” there is still significant uncertainty concerning the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as their impact on the U.S. economy and the Corporation’s customers, vendors and counterparties. The extent to which the pandemic impacts the Corporation’s results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the continuing severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, whether there are additional outbreaks of COVID-19 or the emergence of more virulent COVID-19 variants, and the actions taken to respond to any such future developments. Moreover, although multiple COVID-19 vaccines have received regulatory approval and are currently being distributed, it is too early to know how quickly and broadly these vaccines can be distributed and will be accepted and how effective they will be in mitigating the adverse social and economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Corporation’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. In an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, the Corporation adjusted service models at certain of its financial center locations, including limiting some locations to drive-up and ATM services only, offering lobby access by
45


appointment only, and encouraging the Corporation’s customers to use electronic banking platforms. Approximately 25% of the Corporation’s locations are expected to provide lobby access by appointment only on a long-term basis.

As the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded in the first quarter of 2020, a significant portion of the Corporation’s employees transitioned to working remotely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which, in addition to requiring added support from the Corporation’s information technology infrastructure, increases cybersecurity risks. The Corporation has announced plans for the majority of its employees currently working remotely to return to onsite or hybrid onsite-remote working arrangements late in the third quarter of 2021.

COVID-19 has significantly affected the financial markets and has resulted in a number of responses by the U.S. government, including reductions in interest rates by the FOMC. These reductions in interest rates, especially if prolonged, could adversely affect the Corporation’s net interest income and margins and the Corporation’s profitability.

The CARES Act was enacted in March 2020 and, among other provisions, authorized the SBA to guarantee loans under the PPP for small businesses that meet eligibility requirements in order to keep their workers on the payroll and fund specified operating expenses. Subsequent legislation extended the authority of the SBA to guaranty loans under the PPP through August 8, 2020. In December 2020, the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act reauthorized the SBA to guarantee loans under the PPP through March 31, 2021, and the PPP Extension Act of 2021 extended that authorization through June 30, 2021 for applications received by the SBA prior to June 1, 2021. From the inception of the PPP through June 30, 2021, the Corporation funded a total of approximately $2.7 billion of loans under the PPP. Through June 30, 2021, a total of $1.6 billion of those PPP loans have qualified for loan forgiveness and have been repaid by the SBA.

A series of stimulus payments to eligible consumers, enhanced unemployment benefits provided by the federal government and traditional, state-provided unemployment compensation, as well as other forms of relief provided to consumers and businesses, have helped to limit some of the adverse impacts of COVID-19 and, together with other factors, have contributed to significant growth in the Corporation’s customer deposit balances since the pandemic began. The reduction, expiration or discontinuation of these measures may adversely impact the recovery of economic activity and the ability of borrowers to meet their payment and other obligations to the Corporation, either of which could require the Corporation to increase the ACL through provisions for credit losses. Further, if economic activity continues to recover, and consumer spending and business investment increase, customers may be less likely to maintain deposit balances with the Corporation at recent levels, which might require the Corporation to increase its reliance on alternative or higher-cost sources of funding.

The impact of COVID-19 on the Corporation’s financial results is evolving and uncertain. The Corporation has limited exposure to some of the industries that were initially most significantly impacted by COVID-19, such as hospitality and food services, energy and entertainment, and most of these loans are secured by real estate and other forms of collateral. While many areas of the economy continue to exhibit signs of recovery, the lingering effects of the pandemic, particularly in certain sectors of the economy, or a resurgence in COVID-19 infections that prompts the continuation or imposition of governmental restrictions on activities, may result in decreased demand for the Corporation’s loan products. In addition, the decline in economic activity occurring due to COVID-19 and the actions by the FOMC with respect to interest rates are likely to affect the Corporation’s net interest income, non-interest income and credit-related losses for an uncertain period of time. See additional discussion in "Results of Operations" and "Financial Condition" of Management's Discussion.

Financial Highlights

Following is a summary of the financial highlights for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021:

Net Income Available to Common Shareholders and Net Income Per Share - Net income available to common shareholders was $62.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a $22.8 million increase compared to $39.6 million for the same period of 2020. Diluted net income per share was $0.38, a $0.14 increase compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in net income during the second quarter of 2021 was primarily a result of a negative provision for credit losses, an increase in net interest income and lower non-interest expenses, partially offset by lower non-interest income, net investment securities gains, higher income taxes and the preferred stock dividend as discussed below.

Net income available to common shareholders was $132.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a $67.3 million increase compared to $65.6 million for the same period of 2020. Diluted net income per share was $0.81, a $0.41 increase compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in net income during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily a result of a negative provision for credit losses, an increase in net interest income, non-
46


interest income, and net investment securities gains, partially offset by higher non-interest expenses, higher income taxes and the preferred stock dividend as discussed below.

Net Interest Income - Net interest income increased $9.6 million, or 6.3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and increased $13.0 million, or 4.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. The increases resulted from reduced long-term borrowings, lower rates on interest-bearing liabilities and higher volumes of interest-earning assets, primarily loans, partially offset by lower yields on interest-earning assets. Overall, the net interest margin decreased 8 bp and 25 bp for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively compared to the same periods in 2020.

Net Interest Margin - For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the decreases in the net interest margin reflected the net impact of 35 bp and 58 bp, respectively, decreases in yields on interest-earning assets, partially offset by 28 bp and 35 bp, respectively, decreases in the cost of funds.

Loan Growth - Average Net Loans grew by $574.8 million, or 3.1%, and $1.3 billion, or 7.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increases were driven largely by the issuance of PPP loans and growth in the real estate commercial and residential mortgage portfolios.

Deposit Growth - Average deposits grew $2.5 billion, or 12.9%, and $3.2 billion, or 17.8%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively compared to the same periods in 2020. The increases were driven by growth in all deposit categories except time deposits. The increases in average total demand and savings accounts were driven by strong customer liquidity.

Provision for Credit Losses - The provision for credit losses was a negative $3.5 million and a negative $9.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, decreases of $23.1 million and $72.6 million, respectively, from the same periods of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, improved economic forecasts and other factors compared to those as of both March 31, 2021, for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, for the six months ended June 30, 2021, reduced the level of the ACL determined to be necessary at the end of the second quarter of 2021. The higher provision for credit losses in the first half of 2020 was primarily driven by the assessment of the initial estimated impacts of COVID-19, as reflected in economic forecasts, on the level of expected credit losses.

Asset Quality - Non-performing assets increased $5.2 million, or 3.4%, as of June 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020, and were 0.60% and 0.58% of total assets, respectively, as of those dates. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans outstanding were 0.15% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 0.09% for the same period in 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, annualized net charge-offs to average loans outstanding were 0.14% and 0.17%, respectively.

Balance Sheet Restructuring - During the first quarter of 2021, the Corporation completed a balance sheet restructuring that included a $34.0 million gain on sale of Visa Shares, offset by other securities losses of $400,000, debt extinguishment costs of $32.6 million and a write-off of $841,000 recognized in net interest income in connection with the cash tender offer for certain of its outstanding senior and subordinated notes and the prepayment of certain term FHLB advances. See Note 14, "Long-Term Debt," in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the tender of certain outstanding senior and subordinated notes.

Non-interest Income - For the three months ended June 30, 2021, non-interest income, excluding net investment securities gains, decreased $1.1 million, or 2.0%, as compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease in the 2021 period was primarily the result of mortgage banking income, which decreased $7.1 million, driven by a reduction in gain-on-sale spreads of mortgages sold as well as a $2.2 million addition to the valuation allowance for MSRs. Partially offsetting this decrease were wealth management fees, which increased $4.2 million, or 31.5%, resulting from an increase in client asset levels and overall market performance, and higher. commercial and consumer banking revenues.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, non-interest income, excluding net investment securities gains, increased $6.3 million, or 5.8%, as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in the 2021 period was primarily the result of wealth management fees, which increased $6.5 million, or 22.9%, resulting from an increase in client asset levels and overall market performance, consumer banking revenues and mortgage banking income, partially offset by lower commercial banking income, driven primarily by a decrease in capital markets income, consisting primarily of fees earned on commercial loan interest rate swaps.
47


Non-interest Expense - Non-interest expense decreased $2.2 million, or 1.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease during the quarter was largely driven by lower salaries and employee benefits and lower debt extinguishment costs. In the second quarter of 2020, the Corporation redeemed long-term FHLB advances, which resulted in prepayment penalties of $2.9 million. Increases were recognized in data processing and software expenses and state taxes.

Non-interest expense increased $33.7 million, or 11.8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was largely driven by debt extinguishment costs recorded in the first quarter of 2021, in connection with the balance sheet restructuring discussed above, compared to $2.9 million of debt extinguishment costs recognized in the second quarter of 2020. Higher data processing and software, state taxes and other outside services also contributed to the increase, partially offset by lower professional fees.

In 2020, the Corporation completed a strategic operating expense review, which resulted in a number of cost-saving initiatives that were expected to result in annual expense savings of $25 million, these expense reductions were fully realized by the end of the second quarter of 2021. The expense reductions occurred primarily within salaries and employee benefits and net occupancy expense categories. The Corporation has been reinvesting a portion of the cost savings to accelerate digital transformation initiatives.

Income Taxes - Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $12.0 million, a $5.5 million increase from $6.5 million for the same period in 2020. The Corporation’s ETR was 15.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 14.2% in the same period of 2020. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $25.9 million, a $16.6 million increase from $9.3 million for the same period in 2020. The Corporation’s ETR was 15.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 12.4% in the same period of 2020. The increase in income tax expense primarily resulted from an increase in income before taxes, while net favorable permanent differences were relatively the same compared to the same periods of 2020. The ETR is generally lower than the federal statutory rate of 21% due to tax-exempt interest income earned on loans, investments in tax-free municipal securities and investments in community development projects that generate tax credits under various federal programs.

Supplemental Reporting of Non-GAAP Based Financial Measures

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains supplemental financial information, as detailed below, which has been derived by methods other than GAAP. The Corporation has presented these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Corporation's results of operations and financial condition. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Corporation evaluates its performance internally, and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of the Corporation and companies in the Corporation's industry. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, are also useful to investors to evaluate the Corporation's results. Investors should recognize that the Corporation's presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures at other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, and the Corporation strongly encourages a review of its consolidated financial statements in their entirety. Following are reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

Note: Changes which are partially attributable to both volume and rate are allocated to the volume and rate components presented above based on the percentage of direct changes that are attributable to each component.

The general level of interest rates has remained at or near historic lows since March 2020 as a result of the FOMC reducing the Fed Funds Rate to near zero and taking other monetary policy actions in response to COVID-19. As summarized in the preceding table, the 35 bp decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets drove a $14.2 million decrease in FTE interest income that was partially offset by the impact of a $2.0 billion, or 9.2%, increase in average interest-earning assets, primarily PPP loans, which contributed $10.1 million to FTE interest income. The yield on the loan portfolio decreased 20 bp, or 5.7%, from the second quarter of 2020, as variable and certain adjustable rate loans repriced to lower rates, and yields on new loan originations generally were lower than the average yield on the loan portfolio. Adjustable rate loans reprice on dates specified in the loan agreements, which may be later than the date the Fed Funds Rate and related loan index rates increase or decrease. As a result, the impact of changes in index rates, primarily the prime rate and LIBOR, on adjustable rate loans may not be fully realized until future periods.

Interest expense decreased $13.7 million primarily due to the 36 bp decrease in the rate on average interest-bearing liabilities. The rates on average interest-bearing demand deposits and savings deposits decreased 11 bp and 16 bp, respectively, which contributed $1.6 million and $2.4 million to the decrease in interest expense, respectively. The cost of average time deposits decreased 62 bp and the average balance of time deposits decreased $621.4 million, which contributed $3.5 million and $2.3 million to the decrease in interest expense, respectively. In addition, the $734.6 million decrease in average long-term borrowings resulted in a $6.6 million decrease in interest expense, partially offset by the 90 bp increase in the average rate on long-term borrowings, which contributed $2.5 million of additional interest expense. As discussed in the "Overview" section of Management's Discussion, the Corporation completed a balance sheet restructuring in March of 2021, which included the prepayment of $535.0 million of FHLB advances and the cash tender offer for $75.0 million and $60.0 million of subordinated debt and senior notes, respectively.

(1) Includes average PPP loans of $1.5 billion and $1.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
(2) Consists of overdrafts and net origination fees and costs.

Average loans increased $574.8 million, or 3.1%, compared to the same period of 2020. The increase was driven largely by growth in the commercial and residential mortgage and construction portfolios, partially offset by decreases in the commercial and industrial and home equity portfolios. The decrease in the commercial and industrial portfolio was the net result of the forgiveness of $639.0 million of loans originated under the PPP and the origination of $60.0 million of new PPP loans, as well as reduced utilization of lines of credit.

The average cost of total deposits decreased 21 bp, to 0.15%, for the second quarter of 2021, compared to 0.36% for the same period of 2020, mainly as a result of reductions in deposit rates, due to the continued low interest rate environment, and growth in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. This decrease in the average cost of deposits contributed $7.6 million to the reduction of interest expense. Average total deposits increased $2.5 billion, or 12.9%, primarily driven by increases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand and saving accounts, partially offset by a $621.4 million, or 23.7%, decrease in time deposits.

(1) Includes repurchase agreements and short-term promissory notes.
(2) Consists of FHLB advances and other borrowings with original terms of less than one year.

Average total short-term borrowings decreased $193.7 million, or 27.4%, in the second quarter of 2021, compared to the same period of 2020, primarily as a result of excess funding provided by higher deposit balances.

Average total long-term borrowings decreased $734.6 million, or 54.0%, in the second quarter of 2021, compared to the same period of 2020, primarily as a result of the balance sheet restructuring completed in March of 2021, which included the prepayment of $536.0 million of long-term FHLB advances and the cash tender offer for $75.0 million and $60.0 million of the Corporation's outstanding subordinated and senior notes, respectively. This reduction in long-term borrowings contributed $6.6 million to the reduction of interest expense during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period a year ago.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was a negative $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $23.1 million from the same period of 2020. Several factors as of the end of the second quarter of 2021 in comparison to the end of the fourth quarter of 2020, including improved economic forecasts, reduced the level of the ACL determined to be necessary at the end of the second quarter of 2021, resulting in the negative provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2021. The $19.6 million provision expense for credit losses in the second quarter of 2020 was the result of several factors, most notably, the overall uncertainty in economic forecasts due to COVID-19.

Non-interest income, before net investment securities gains, decreased $1.1 million, or 2.0%, in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020.

Total commercial banking increased $381,000, or 2.3%, compared to the same period in 2020, driven by increases in other commercial banking income, primarily SBA income and merchant and card income, partially offset by decreases in capital markets revenue, which consists primarily of commercial loan interest rate swaps.

Total consumer banking income increased $1.7 million, or 18.8%, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily driven by higher overdraft fees and an increase in card income.

Wealth management revenues increased $4.2 million, or 31.5%, primarily resulting from growth in brokerage income due to an increase in client asset levels and improved overall market performance.

Mortgage banking income decreased $7.1 million, or 71.5%, as a result of decreased gains on sales of mortgage loans, driven by lower mortgage sales and gain-on-sale spreads on loans sold. This was slightly offset by an increase in mortgage servicing income, which was negatively impacted by a $2.2 million addition to the valuation allowance for MSRs in the second quarter of 2021 compared to a $6.6 million addition during the same period last year.

Net investment securities gain were $3.0 million lower compared to the second quarter of 2020.

Note: Changes which are partially attributable to both volume and rate are allocated to the volume and rate components presented above based on the percentage of direct changes that are attributable to each component.

The general level of interest rates has remained at or near historic lows since March 2020 as a result of the FOMC reducing the Fed Funds Rate to near zero and taking other monetary policy actions in response to COVID-19. As summarized in the preceding table, the 58 bp decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets drove a $53.4 million decrease in FTE interest income that was partially offset by the impact of a $2.9 billion, or 13.7%, increase in average interest-earning assets which contributed $34.6 million to FTE interest income. The yield on the loan portfolio decreased 44 bp, or 11.3%, from the same period of 2020, as variable and certain adjustable rate loans repriced to lower rates and yields on new loan originations generally were lower than the average yield on the loan portfolio. Adjustable rate loans reprice on dates specified in the loan agreements, which may be later than the date the Fed Funds Rate and related loan index rates increase or decrease. As a result, the impact of changes in index rates, primarily the prime rate and LIBOR, on adjustable rate loans may not be fully realized until future periods.

Interest expense decreased $31.8 million primarily due to the 43 bp decrease in the rate on average interest-bearing liabilities. The rates on average interest-bearing demand deposits and savings deposits decreased 26 bp and 31 bp, respectively, which contributed $7.3 million and $9.1 million to the decrease in interest expense, respectively. The cost of average time deposits decreased 60 bp and the average balance of time deposits decreased $616.5 million, which contributed $7.0 million and $4.7 million to the decrease in interest expense, respectively. In addition, the $463.2 million decrease in average short-term borrowings and the $265.1 million decrease in average long-term borrowings resulted in $4.3 million and $1.6 million decreases in interest expense, respectively. As discussed in the "Overview" section of Management's Discussion, the Corporation completed a balance sheet restructuring in March of 2021, which included the prepayment of $535.0 million of FHLB advances and the cash tender offer for $75.0 million and $60.0 million of subordinated debt and senior notes, respectively.

(2) Consists of overdrafts and net origination fees and costs.

Average loans increased $1.3 billion, or 7.7%, compared to the same period of 2020. The increase was driven largely by growth in the commercial and residential mortgage portfolios, the commercial and industrial portfolio, as a result of loans originated under the PPP, and construction portfolio. Excluding loans originated under the PPP, commercial and industrial loan balances declined. The increases were partially offset by decreases in the home equity, equipment lease financing and consumer portfolios as well as other loans.

Average deposits and average interest rates, by type, are summarized in the following table:

The average cost of total deposits decreased 31 bp to 0.17% for the first half of 2021 compared to 0.48% for the same period of 2020, mainly as a result of reductions in deposit rates due to the continued low interest rate environment, and growth in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. This decrease in the average cost of deposits contributed $24.4 million to the reduction of interest expense. Average total deposits increased $3.2 billion, or 17.8%, primarily driven by increases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand and saving accounts, partially offset by a $616.5 million, or 22.9%, decrease in time deposits.

(2) Consists of FHLB borrowings with original term of less than one year.

Average total short-term borrowings decreased $463.2 million, or 46.1%, during the first six months of 2021, compared to the same period of 2020 primarily as a result of excess funding provided by growth in deposit balances.

Average total long-term borrowings decreased $265.1 million, or 21.9%, in the first half of 2021, compared to the same period of 2020 primarily as a result of the balance sheet restructuring competed in March of 2021, which included the prepayment of $536.0 million of long-term FHLB advances and the cash tender offer for $75.0 million and $60.0 million of the Corporation's outstanding subordinated and senior notes, respectively. This reduction in long-term borrowings contributed $4.4 million to the reduction of interest expense, partially offset by the impact of a 52 bp increase in the rate on average long-term borrowings during the first half of 2021.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was a negative $9.0 million for the first six months of 2021, a decrease of $72.6 million from the same period of 2020. Several factors as of the six months ended June 30, 2021 in comparison to the end of the fourth quarter of 2020, including improved economic forecasts, reduced the level of the ACL determined to be necessary at the end of the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $63.6 million provision for credit losses during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was the result of several factors, most notably, the overall uncertainty in economic forecasts due to COVID-19.

Non-interest income, before net investment securities gains, increased $6.3 million, or 5.8%, during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020.

Commercial banking decreased $1.7 million, or 4.8%, compared to the same period in 2020, driven by a decrease in capital markets revenue, which consists primarily of fees earned on commercial loan interest rate swaps, partially offset by increases in merchant and card, cash management and other commercial banking.

Consumer banking increased $1.2 million, or 6.1%, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily driven by an increase in card income.

Wealth management revenues increased $6.5 million, or 22.9%, primarily resulting from growth in brokerage income due to an increase in client asset levels and improved overall market performance.

Mortgage banking income increased $600,000, or 3.7%, driven by an increase in mortgage servicing income, partially offset by a decrease in gains on sales of mortgage loans. The increase in mortgage servicing income was driven by a $3.9 million decrease to the valuation allowance for MSRs compared to a $7.7 million increase to the valuation allowance for the same period in 2020. The decrease in gains on sales of mortgage loans reflected decreases in both the volume of loans sold and lower spreads realized on mortgages sold.

Investment securities gains, net, were $33.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of a $34.0 million gain on the sale of the Visa Shares that was part of the balance sheet restructuring as discussed in the "Overviews" section of Management's Discussion.

Data processing and software increased $3.7 million, or 15.3%, reflecting costs related to technology initiatives.

State taxes increased $3.0 million, or 50.9%, primarily as a result of an increase in the accrual for PA shares tax expense resulting from increased capital levels.

Professional fees decreased $2.1 million, or 27.9%, primarily due to a decrease in legal fees. The Corporation incurs fees related to various legal matters in the normal course of business. These fees can fluctuate based on timing and the extent of these matters.

Debt extinguishment costs increased $29.7 million as a result of $20.9 million in prepayment penalties incurred upon the prepayment of long-term FHLB advances and $11.3 million of expenses associated with the cash tender offer to purchase subordinated and senior notes as part of the balance sheet restructuring discussed in the "Overview" section of Management's Discussion.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $25.9 million, a $16.6 million increase from $9.3 million for the same period in 2020. The Corporation’s ETR was 15.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to 12.4% in the same period of 2020. The increase in income tax expense and the ETR primarily resulted from an increase in income before taxes, while net favorable permanent differences were relatively the same compared to the same period of 2020.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The $56.2 million, or 3.0%, increase in cash and cash equivalents mainly resulted from additional cash maintained at the FRB due to the Corporation's excess liquidity position.

FRB and FHLB Stock

The $29.5 million, or 32.0%, decrease in FRB and FHLB stock was the result of a decrease in FHLB stock required due to the prepayment of long-term FHLB advances, as mentioned in the "Overview" section of Management's Discussion, and a decrease in the usage of FHLB letters of credit.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale decreased $42.0 million, or 50.0%, primarily as the result of the Corporation's decision to hold a greater proportion of the residential mortgage loans it originated in the loan portfolio, rather than selling those loans in the secondary market.

The increase was partially offset by $376.2 million of residential and commercial mortgage backed securities transferred from the AFS classification to the HTM classification. In addition, the Corporation sold ARCs with an estimated fair value of $24.6 million during the first quarter of 2021.

Total HTM securities increased $546.0 million, primarily as a result of the above mentioned transfer of AFS securities as well as purchases of additional mortgage-backed securities.

Net Loans decreased $314.1 million, or 1.7%, in comparison to December 31, 2020, primarily due the forgiveness of approximately $1.2 billion PPP loans during the first six months of 2021. Growth in the commercial and residential mortgage portfolios and construction loans partially offset decreases in the commercial and industrial and other loan portfolios.

The increase in the residential mortgage portfolio was the result of continued growth in originations and the strategic decision by the Corporation to hold a greater proportion of the originations on its balance sheet. The decrease in the commercial and industrial loan portfolio was impacted by the net effect of the forgiveness of approximately $1.2 billion of PPP loans and the origination of approximately $753 million of new PPP loans during the first six months of 2021.

Construction loans include loans to commercial borrowers secured by commercial real estate, loans to commercial borrowers secured by residential real estate, and other construction loans, which are loans to individuals secured by residential real estate. Approximately $8.2 billion, or 44.2%, of the loan portfolio was in commercial mortgage and construction loans as of June 30, 2021. The Corporation's internal policy limited its maximum total lending commitment to an individual borrowing relationship to $55 million as of June 30, 2021. In addition, the Corporation has established lower total lending limits for certain types of lending commitments, and lower total lending limits based on the Corporation's internal risk rating of an individual borrowing relationship at the time the lending commitment is approved.

The Corporation has limited exposure to some of the industries that were initially most significantly impacted by COVID-19, such as hospitality, energy and entertainment, and most of these loans are secured by real estate and other forms of collateral.

The ability to identify potential problem loans in a timely manner is important to maintaining an adequate ACL. For commercial loans, commercial mortgages and construction loans to commercial borrowers, an internal risk rating process is used to monitor credit quality. The evaluation of credit risk for residential mortgages, home equity loans, construction loans to individuals and consumer loans is based on payment history, through the monitoring of delinquency levels and trends. For a description of the Corporation's risk ratings, see Note 4, "Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses," in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Total internally risk-rated loans were $13.1 billion, of which $1.1 billion were criticized and classified, as of June 30, 2021, and $13.7 billion, of which $961.1 million were criticized and classified, as of December 31, 2020. The following table presents internal risk ratings for commercial and industrial loans, real estate - commercial mortgages and real estate - construction loans to commercial borrowers with internal risk ratings of Special Mention (1) or Substandard or lower (2):

The provision for credit losses, specific to loans, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was negative $4.0 million and negative $9.4 million, respectively, compared to a provision expense of $22.2 million and $62.4 million, respectively, recorded in the same periods of 2020. Several factors during the first six months of 2021 in comparison to the end of the fourth quarter of 2020, including improved economic forecasts, reduced the level of the ACL determined to be necessary at the end of both the first and second quarters of 2021. The higher provision during the first six months of 2020 was largely driven by the overall downturn in economic forecasts due to COVID-19, resulting in higher expected future credit losses under CECL. The

See Note 4, "Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses," in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the provision for credit losses.

In addition, net loan charge offs in the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased $2.8 million compared to the same period of 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net loan charge offs decreased $2.1 million compared to the same period of 2020.

(1) Includes repurchase agreements and short-term promissory notes.

Total short-term borrowings decreased $96.3 million, or 15.3%. The decrease in short-term borrowings was a result of higher balances of deposits, reducing the need for short-term borrowings. Total long-term borrowings decreased $669.1 million. As discussed in the "Overview" section of Management's Discussion, as part of a balance sheet restructuring, the Corporation prepaid $536.0 million of long-term FHLB advances and completed a cash tender offer for $75.0 million of 4.50% subordinated debt due in 2024 and $60.0 million of 3.60% senior notes due in 2022. Also, See Note 14, "Long-Term Debt," in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

Shareholders' Equity

Total shareholders’ equity increased $76.1 million during the first six months of 2021. The increase was due primarily to $138.0 million of net income, partially offset by $45.6 million of common stock cash dividends, a $17.9 million decrease in AOCI, mainly due to declines in fair values of AFS securities, and $5.2 million of preferred stock dividends.

In February 2021, the Corporation's board of directors approved a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Corporation is authorized to repurchase up to $75.0 million of its outstanding shares of common stock, or approximately 3.2% of its outstanding shares, through December 31, 2021. Under the repurchase program, repurchased shares are added to treasury stock, at cost. As permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements, and subject to market conditions and other factors, purchases may be made from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, including, without limitation, through accelerated share repurchase transactions. The repurchase program may be discontinued at any time. No repurchases of common stock were made under this program during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Regulatory Capital

The Corporation and its subsidiary bank, Fulton Bank, are subject to regulatory capital requirements ("Capital Rules") administered by banking regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements could result in certain actions by regulators that could have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

The Capital Rules require the Corporation and Fulton Bank to:

Meet a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.50% of risk-weighted assets;

Meet a minimum Tier 1 Leverage capital ratio of 4.00% of average assets;

Meet a minimum Total capital ratio of 8.00% of risk-weighted assets and a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.00% of risk-weighted assets;
Maintain a "capital conservation buffer" of 2.50% above the minimum risk-based capital requirements, which must be maintained to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments; and
Comply with a revised definition of capital to improve the ability of regulatory capital instruments to absorb losses. Certain non-qualifying capital instruments, including cumulative preferred stock and TruPS, are excluded as a component of Tier 1 capital for institutions of the Corporation's size.
69


The Capital Rules use a standardized approach for risk weightings that expands the risk-weightings for assets and off-balance sheet exposures from the previous 0%, 20%, 50% and 100% categories to a much larger and more risk-sensitive number of categories, depending on the nature of the assets and off-balance sheet exposures and resulting in higher risk weightings for a variety of asset categories.

As of June 30, 2021, the Corporation's capital levels met the fully phased-in minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffers, as prescribed in the Capital Rules.

In March 2020, the banking regulators amended the optional CECL Transition Rule to allow banks to add back to regulatory capital the decrease recorded to retained earnings at the CECL adoption date, or January 1, 2020 for the Corporation, plus 25% of additions to the ACL over the next two years. These amounts will then be phased in as reductions to regulatory capital over the following three years, or 2022 - 2024. Prior to this amendment, the regulatory capital impact of adopting CECL was to be phased in over a 3-year period beginning in 2020. The Corporation elected to apply the amended rule to the regulatory capital treatment for the adoption of CECL.

As of June 30, 2021, Fulton Bank met the well capitalized requirements under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, Common Equity Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the regulation. There were no other conditions or events since June 30, 2021 that management believes have changed the Corporation's capital categories.

The following table summarizes the Corporation’s capital ratios in comparison to regulatory requirements:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to economic loss that arises from changes in the values of certain financial instruments. The types of market risk exposures generally faced by financial institutions include interest rate risk, equity market price risk, debt security market price risk, foreign currency price risk and commodity price risk. Due to the nature of its operations, foreign currency price risk and commodity price risk are not significant to the Corporation.

Interest Rate Risk, Asset/Liability Management and Liquidity

Interest rate risk creates exposure in two primary areas. First, changes in rates have an impact on the Corporation’s liquidity position and could affect its ability to meet obligations and continue to grow. Second, movements in interest rates can create fluctuations in the Corporation’s net interest income and changes in the economic value of its equity.

The Corporation employs various management techniques to minimize its exposure to interest rate risk. An ALCO is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity and liquidity positions of the Corporation, approving asset and liability management policies, and overseeing the formulation and implementation of strategies regarding balance sheet positions.

Simulation of net interest income is performed for the next 12-month period. A variety of interest rate scenarios are used to measure the effects of sudden and gradual movements upward and downward in the yield curve. These results are compared to the results obtained in a flat or unchanged interest rate scenario. Simulation of net interest income is used primarily to measure the Corporation’s short-term earnings exposure to rate movements. The Corporation’s policy limits the potential exposure of net interest income, in a non-parallel instantaneous shock, to 10% of the base case net interest income for a 100 bp shock in interest rates, 15% for a 200 bp shock, 20% for a 300 bp shock and 25% for a 400 bp shock. A "shock" is an immediate upward or downward movement of interest rates. The shocks do not take into account changes in customer behavior that could result in changes to mix and/or volumes in the balance sheet, nor does it take into account the potential effects of competition on the pricing of deposits and loans over the forward 12-month period.
70


Contractual maturities and repricing opportunities of loans are incorporated in the simulation model as are prepayment assumptions, maturity data and call options within the investment portfolio. Assumptions based on past experience are incorporated into the model for non-maturity deposit accounts. The assumptions used are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure future net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from the model's simulated results due to timing, amount and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and the application and timing of various management strategies.

The following table summarizes the expected impact of abrupt interest rate changes, that is, a non-parallel instantaneous shock, on net interest income as of June 30, 2021 (due to the current level of interest rates, the downward shock scenarios are not shown):
Rate Shock(1)
Annual change
in net interest income
% change in net interest income
+400 bp + $186.1 million 30.4%
+300 bp + $139.5 million 22.7%
+200 bp + $92.4 million 15.1%
+100 bp + $44.6 million 7.3%

(1)These results include the effect of implicit and explicit interest rate floors that limit further reduction in interest rates.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers to meet their interest rate risk management needs. The Corporation simultaneously enters into interest rate swaps with dealer counterparties, with identical notional amounts and terms. The net result of these interest rate swaps is that the customer pays a fixed rate of interest and the Corporation receives a floating rate. These interest rate swaps are derivative financial instruments and the gross fair values are recorded in other assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, with changes in fair value during the period recorded in other non-interest expense on the consolidated statements of income.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Corporation’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to reduce volatility in net interest income and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Corporation primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. During the first quarter of 2021, the Corporation entered into interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing floating rate loans. These hedge contracts involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Corporation making floating-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

Liquidity

The Corporation must maintain a sufficient level of liquid assets to meet the cash needs of its customers, who, as depositors, may want to withdraw funds or who, as borrowers, need credit availability. Liquidity is provided on a continuous basis through scheduled and unscheduled principal and interest payments on investments and outstanding loans and through the availability of deposits and borrowings. The Corporation also maintains secondary sources that provide liquidity on a secured and unsecured basis to meet short-term and long-term needs.

The Corporation maintains liquidity sources in the form of interest-bearing deposits and customer funding (repurchase agreements and short-term promissory notes). The Corporation can access additional liquidity from these sources, if necessary, by increasing the rates of interest paid on those instruments. The positive impact to liquidity resulting from paying higher interest rates could have a detrimental impact on the net interest margin and net interest income if rates on interest-earning assets do not experience a proportionate increase. Borrowing availability with the FHLB and the FRB, along with federal funds lines at various correspondent banks, provides the Corporation with additional liquidity.

Fulton Bank is a member of the FHLB and has access to FHLB overnight and term credit facilities. As of June 30, 2021, the Corporation had $3.0 million of borrowings outstanding from the FHLB with an additional borrowing capacity of approximately $5.4 billion under these facilities. Advances from the FHLB are secured by qualifying commercial real estate and residential mortgage loans, investments and other assets.
71


As of June 30, 2021, the Corporation had aggregate federal funds lines of $2.1 billion, with no outstanding borrowings. A combination of commercial real estate loans, commercial loans and securities are pledged to the FRB of Philadelphia to provide access to FRB Discount Window borrowings. As of June 30, 2021, the Corporation had $799.2 million of collateralized borrowing availability at the Discount Window, and no outstanding borrowings.

Liquidity must also be managed at the Corporation parent company level. For safety and soundness reasons, banking regulations limit the amount of cash that can be transferred from a subsidiary bank to the parent company in the form of loans and dividends. Generally, these limitations are based on the subsidiary bank's regulatory capital levels and its net income. Management continues to monitor the liquidity and capital needs of the parent company and will implement appropriate strategies, as necessary, to remain sufficiently capitalized and to meet its cash needs.

The Corporation’s sources and uses of funds were discussed in general terms in the "Net Interest Income" section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis. The consolidated statements of cash flows provide additional information. The Corporation’s operating activities during the first six months of 2021 provided $233.6 million of cash, mainly due to net income of $138.0 million, and by the net impact of other operating activities. Cash used in investing activities was $217.3 million, mainly due to net increases in investments, partially offset by net decreases in loans. Cash provided by financing activities was $39.9 million due to increases in demand and savings deposits, partially offset by the repayments of long-term borrowings and decreases in time deposits and short-term borrowings.

Debt Security Market Price Risk

Debt security market price risk is the risk that changes in the values of debt securities, unrelated to interest rate changes, could have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Corporation. The Corporation’s debt security investments consist primarily of U.S. government sponsored agency issued residential mortgage-backed and commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, state and municipal securities, auction rate securities and corporate debt securities. All of the Corporation's investments in residential mortgage-backed and commercial mortgage-backed and collateralized mortgage obligations have principal payments that are guaranteed by U.S. government sponsored agencies.

State and Municipal Securities

As of June 30, 2021, the Corporation owned securities issued by various states and municipalities with a total a fair value of $1.1 billion. Uncertainty with respect to the financial strength of state and municipal bond insurers places emphasis on the underlying strength of issuers. Pressure on local tax revenues of issuers due to adverse economic conditions could have an adverse impact on the underlying credit quality of issuers. The Corporation evaluates existing and potential holdings primarily based on the underlying creditworthiness of the issuing state or municipality and then, to a lesser extent, on any credit enhancement. State and municipal securities can be supported by the general obligation of the issuing state or municipality, allowing the securities to be repaid by any means available to the issuing state or municipality. As of June 30, 2021, substantially all of state and municipal securities were supported by the general obligation of corresponding states or municipalities. Approximately 65% of these securities were school district issuances, which are also supported by the states of the issuing municipalities.

Auction Rate Securities

As of June 30, 2021, the Corporation’s investments in ARCs had a cost basis of $76.4 million and an estimated fair value of $74.8 million. The fair values of the ARCs currently in the portfolio were derived using significant unobservable inputs based on an expected cash flows model which produced fair values that may not represent those that could be expected from settlement of these investments in the current market. The expected cash flows model produced fair values which assumed a return to market liquidity sometime within the next five years. The Corporation believes that the trusts underlying the ARCs will self-liquidate as student loans are repaid.

The credit quality of the underlying debt associated with the ARCs is also a factor in the determination of their estimated fair value. As of June 30, 2021, all of the ARCs were rated above investment grade. All of the loans underlying the ARCs have principal payments which are guaranteed by the federal government.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon that evaluation, the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There have been no changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
