Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Presentation
Colony Bankcorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a bank holding company located in Fitzgerald, Georgia. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Colony Bank, Fitzgerald, Georgia (the “Bank”). The “Company” or “our,” as used herein, includes Colony Bank, except where the context requires otherwise.
In July 2019, a new subsidiary of the Company was incorporated under the name Colony Risk Management, Inc. Colony Risk Management, Inc. is a subsidiary of the Company and is located in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is a captive insurance subsidiary which insures various liability and property damage policies for the Company and its related subsidiaries. Colony Risk Management is regulated by the State of Nevada Division of Insurance.
All adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements, have been included and fairly and accurately present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles and practices utilized in the commercial banking industry for interim financial information and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information or notes required for complete financial statements.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“2022 Form 10-K”).
Nature of Operations
The Bank provides a full range of retail, commercial and mortgage banking services for consumers and small- to medium-size businesses located primarily in north central, south and coastal Georgia and in Alabama through a loan production office. The Bank is headquartered in Fitzgerald, Georgia with banking and mortgage offices in Albany, Ashburn, Athens, Broxton, Centerville, Columbus, Cordele, Douglas, Eastman, Fitzgerald, LaGrange, Leesburg, Macon, Moultrie, Quitman, Rochelle, Savannah, Soperton, Statesboro, Sylvester, Tifton, Valdosta and Warner Robins and a loan production office in Birmingham, Alabama. Lending and investing activities are funded primarily by deposits gathered through its retail banking office network.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans and fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including goodwill impairment.
Reclassifications
In certain instances, amounts reported in prior years’ consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to statement presentations selected for 2023. Such reclassifications have not materially affected previously reported stockholders’ equity or net income.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
Concentrations of credit risk can exist in relation to individual borrowers or groups of borrowers, certain types of collateral, certain types of industries, or certain geographic regions. The Company has a concentration in real estate loans as well as a geographic concentration that could pose an adverse credit risk. At June 30, 2023, approximately 85% of the Company’s loan portfolio was concentrated in loans secured by real estate. A substantial portion of borrowers’ ability to honor their contractual obligations is dependent upon the viability of the real estate economic sector. Management continues to monitor these concentrations and has considered these concentrations in its allowance for credit loss analysis.
The success of the Company is dependent, to a certain extent, upon the economic conditions in the geographic markets it serves. Adverse changes in the economic conditions in these geographic markets would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The operating results of the Company depend primarily on its net interest income. Accordingly, operations are subject to risks and uncertainties surrounding the exposure to changes in the interest rate environment.
At times, the Company may have cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions in excess of federal deposit insurance limits. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions whose credit ratings are monitored by management to minimize credit risk.
Allowance for Credit Losses ("ACL") – Loans
The current expected credit loss (“CECL”) approach requires an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). It replaces the incurred loss approach’s threshold that delayed the recognition of a credit loss until it was probable a loss event was incurred. The estimate of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts. Historical loss experience is generally the starting point for estimating expected credit losses. The Company then considers whether the historical loss experience should be adjusted for asset-specific risk characteristics or current conditions at the reporting date that did not exist over the historical period used. The Company also considers future economic conditions and portfolio performance as part of a reasonable and supportable forecast period.
The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans' amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
Management determines the ACL balance using relevant available information from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit behaviors along with model judgments provide the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to modeled loss estimates may be made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in economic conditions, property values, or other relevant factors. For the majority of loans and leases the ACL is calculated using a discounted cash flow methodology applied at a loan level with a one-year reasonable and supportable forecast period and a two-year straight-line reversion period.
The ACL-loans is measured on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company has identified the following portfolio segments and calculates the ACL for each using a discounted cash flow methodology at the loan level, with loss rates, prepayment assumptions and curtailment assumptions driven by each loan’s collateral type:
•Construction, land & land development - Risks common to construction, land & development loans are cost overruns, changes in market demand for property, inadequate long-term financing arrangements and declines in real estate values.
•Other commercial real estate - Loans in this category are susceptible to business failure and general economic conditions declines in real estate value, declines in occupancy rates, and lack of suitable alternative use for the property.
•Commercial, financial & agricultural - Risks to this loan category include the inability to monitor the condition of the collateral, which often consists of inventory, accounts receivable and other non-real estate assets. Equipment and inventory obsolescence can also pose a risk. Declines in general economic conditions and other events can cause cash flows to fall to levels insufficient to service debt.

COLONY BANKCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
•Residential real estate - Residential real estate loans are susceptible to weakening general economic conditions, increases in unemployment rates and declining real estate values.
•Consumer and other - Risks common to consumer direct loans include unemployment and changes in local economic conditions as well as the inability to monitor collateral consisting of personal property.
When management determines that foreclosure is probable or when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty at the reporting date and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.
Allowance for Credit Losses – Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures
Management estimates expected credit losses on commitments to extend credit over the contractual period during which the Company is exposed to credit risk on the underlying commitments. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. The ACL is calculated using the same aggregate reserve rates calculated for the funded portion of loans at the portfolio level applied to the amount of commitments expected to fund.
Allowance for Credit Losses – Held-to-Maturity Securities ("HTM")
Management measures current expected credit losses on HTM debt securities on a collective basis by major security type. The estimate of current expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Management classifies the HTM portfolio into the following major security types: U.S. Treasuries, U.S. agencies and state, county and municipal, and mortgage-backed securities. Accrued interest receivable on HTM debt is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
All of the residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities held by the Company as HTM are issued by U.S. Government agencies and government sponsored entities. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. The state and political subdivision securities are also highly rated by major rating agencies.
Allowance for Credit Losses – Available-for-Sale Securities ("AFS")
For AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security's amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an ACL is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any amount of unrealized loss that has not been recorded through an ACL is recognized in other comprehensive income. Accrued interest receivable on AFS debt securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
Changes in the ACL are recorded as provision for (or reversal of) credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of an AFS security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

Derivatives
The Company records cash flow hedges at the inception of a derivative contract based on management’s intentions and belief as to the likely effectiveness of the hedge. Cash flow hedges represent a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability. For a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in OCI and is reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The changes in the fair value of a derivative that is not highly effective in hedging the expected cash flows of the hedged item are recognized immediately as interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.
Net cash settlements on derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in interest income or interest expense, based on the item being hedged. Net cash settlements on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported in noninterest income or noninterest expense. Cash flows from hedges are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows in the same manner as the items being hedged.
The Company formally documents the relationship between derivatives and hedged items, as well as the risk management objective and the strategy for undertaking hedge transactions at the inception of the hedging relationship. This documentation includes linking cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative instruments that are used are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. The Company discontinues hedge accounting when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative is settled or terminated, a hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable, a hedged firm commitment is no longer firm or treatment of the derivative as a hedge is no longer appropriate or intended.
When hedge accounting is discontinued, subsequent changes in fair value of the derivative are recorded as interest expense. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued but the hedged cash flows or forecasted transactions are still expected to occur, gains or losses that were accumulated in OCI are amortized into earnings over the same periods which the hedged transactions will affect earnings.
Changes in Accounting Principles
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended, was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2023, which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842 on leases. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on available-for-sale debt securities management does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell.
The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, and off-balance sheet credit exposures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2023 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. The Company recorded a net decrease to retained earnings of $1.2 million, net of tax, as of January 1, 2023 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 326, primarily related to credit losses for unfunded commitments.
ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2023. This ASU provides guidance on eliminating the requirement for classification of and disclosures around troubled debt restructurings (TDRs). The purpose of this guidance is to eliminate unnecessary and overly-complex disclosures of loans that are already incorporated into the allowance for credit losses and related disclosures while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no loan modifications that met the requirements of this disclosure. This ASU further requires the disclosure of current-period gross charge-offs by year of origination. Current period gross charge-offs are included in the term loan vintage table in Note 3 - Loans.

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” ASU 2023-02 permits reporting entities to elect to account for their tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. ASU 2023-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. ASU 2023-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities disclosed throughout this note. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accrued interest receivable for available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities totaled $2.5 million and $2.6 million, and $1.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, and is included in the "other assets" line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

The Company transferred certain agency-issued securities from the available-for-sale to held-to-maturity portfolio on January 1, 2022 and September 1, 2022, having a combined book value of approximately $511.0 million and a combined market value of approximately $477.0 million. As of the date of each transfer, the related pre-tax net unrecognized losses of approximately $34.0 million within the accumulated other comprehensive loss balance are being amortized over the remaining term of the securities using the effective interest method. This transfer was completed after careful consideration of the Company’s intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. Factors used in assessing the ability to hold these securities to maturity were future liquidity needs and sources of funding. The Company has had no other transfers of securities since September 1, 2022.
The amortized cost and fair value of investment securities as of June 30, 2023, by contractual maturity, are shown hereafter. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities for certain investments because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. This is often the case with mortgage-backed securities, which are disclosed separately in the table below.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

COLONY BANKCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
At June 30, 2023, there were 286 available-for-sale securities and 154 held-to-maturity securities that had unrealized losses. These securities are guaranteed by either the U.S. Government, other governments or U.S. corporations. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. As management has the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future if classified as available-for-sale, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.
The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), as amended on January 1, 2023 which included evaluation of expected credit losses on debt securities. As part of the Company's calculated credit losses, the allowance for credit losses on investment securities was determined to be de minimis due to the high credit quality of the portfolio, which includes securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government agencies and high quality municipalities. Therefore, no allowance for credit losses was recorded as of June 30, 2023. See Note 1 for additional details on the allowance for credit losses as it relates to the securities portfolio.

The Company elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of loans disclosed throughout this note. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accrued interest receivable for loans totaled $7.1 million and $6.8 million, respectively, and is included in the "other assets" line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Commercial, financial & agricultural loans are extended to a diverse group of businesses within the Company’s market area. These loans are often underwritten based on the borrower’s ability to service the debt from income from the business. Real estate construction loans often require loan funds to be advanced prior to completion of the project. Due to uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs, changes in interest rates and other economic conditions, these loans often pose a higher risk than other types of loans.

Credit Quality Indicators. As part of the ongoing monitoring of the credit quality of the loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (1) the risk grade assigned to commercial and consumer loans, (2) the level of classified commercial loans, (3) net charge-offs, (4) nonperforming loans, and (5) the general economic conditions in the Company’s geographic markets.
The Company uses a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 10. A description of the general characteristics of the grades is as follows:
•Grades 1, 2 and 3 - Borrowers with these assigned risk grades range from virtual absence of risk to minimal risk. Such loans may be secured by Company-issued and controlled certificates of deposit or properly margined equity securities or bonds. Other loans comprising these grades are made to companies that have been in existence for a long period of time with many years of consecutive profits and strong equity, good liquidity, excellent debt service ability and unblemished past performance, or to exceptionally strong individuals with collateral of unquestioned value that fully secures the loans. Loans in this category fall into the “pass” classification.
•Grades 4 and 5 - Loans assigned these “pass” risk grades are made to borrowers with acceptable credit quality and risk. The risk ranges from loans with no significant weaknesses in repayment capacity and collateral protection to acceptable loans with one or more risk factors considered to be more than average. These loans are also included in into the “pass” classification.
•Grade 6 - This grade includes “special mention” loans on management’s watch list and is intended to be used on a temporary basis for pass grade loans where risk-modifying action is intended in the short-term.
•Grades 7 and 8 - These grades includes “substandard” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines. This category includes borrowers with well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the payment of the debt in accordance with the agreed terms. Loans considered to be impaired are assigned grade 8, and these loans often have assigned loss allocations as part of the allowance for credit losses. Generally, loans on which interest accrual has been stopped would be included in this grade.
•Grades 9 and 10 - These grades correspond to regulatory classification definitions of “doubtful” and “loss,” respectively. In practice, any loan with these grades would be for a very short period of time, and generally the Company has no loans with these assigned grades. Management manages the Company’s problem loans in such a way that uncollectible loans or uncollectible portions of loans are charged off immediately with any residual, collectible amounts assigned a risk grade of 7 or 8. 
The following table presents the loan portfolio segregated by class of loans and the risk category of term loans by vintage year, which is the year of origination or most recent renewal, as of June 30, 2023. Those loans with a risk grade of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 have been combined in the pass column for presentation purposes. There were no loans with a risk rating of "doubtful" or "loss" at June 30, 2023.

A loan’s risk grade is assigned at loan origination and is based on the financial strength of the borrower and the type of collateral. Loan risk grades are subject to review at various times throughout the year as part of the Company’s ongoing loan review process. Loans with an assigned risk grade of six or below and an outstanding balance of $500,000 or more are reassessed on a quarterly basis. During this reassessment process individual reserves may be identified and placed against certain loans which are not considered impaired.
In assessing the overall economic condition of the markets in which it operates, the Company monitors the unemployment rates for its major service areas. The unemployment rates are reviewed on a quarterly basis as part of the allowance for credit loss determination.
Loans are placed on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days past due or when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory guidelines. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due.
Collateral-Dependent Loans
We classify a loan as collateral-dependent when our borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, and we expect repayment to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of collateral. Our commercial loans have collateral that is comprised of real estate and business assets. Our consumer loans have collateral that is substantially comprised of residential real estate.
There were no significant changes in the extent to which collateral secures our collateral-dependent loans during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023.

The allowance for credit losses incorporates an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and is recorded on each asset upon asset origination or acquisition. The starting point for the estimate of the allowance for credit losses is historical loss information, which includes losses from modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The Company uses a discounted cash flow model to determine the allowance for credit losses. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of a modification.
Because the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses because of the measurement methodologies used to estimate the allowance, a change to the allowance for credit losses is generally not recorded upon modification. Occasionally, the Company modifies loans by providing principal forgiveness on certain of its real estate loans. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amortized cost basis of the asset is written off against the allowance for credit losses. The amount of the principal forgiveness is deemed to be uncollectible; therefore, that portion of the loan is written off, resulting in a reduction of the amortized cost basis and a corresponding adjustment to the allowance for credit losses.
In some cases, the Company will modify a certain loan by providing multiple types of concessions. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted. Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan, or portion of a loan, has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan, or portion of the loan, is written off.
The Company had no loans that were modified due to financial difficulty during the three or six month periods ended June 30, 2023.
Prior to the adoption of ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023, the restructuring of a loan was considered a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") if both the borrower was experiencing financial difficulties and the Company had granted a concession to the terms of the loan. Concessions may have included interest rate reductions to below market interest rates, principal forgiveness, restructured amortization schedules and other actions intended to minimize potential losses.
As discussed in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K, once a loan was identified as a TDR, it was accounted for as an impaired loan. The Company had no unfunded commitments to lend to a customer that had a troubled debt restructured loan as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. Loans modified in a TDR were considered to be in default once the loan became 90 days past due. A TDR ceased being classified as impaired if the loan was subsequently modified at market terms and, had performed according to the modified terms for at least six months, and there had not been any prior principal forgiveness on a cumulative basis.
The Company had no loans that subsequently defaulted during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

As of June 30, 2023, Colony used a one-year reasonable and supportable forecast period. The changes in loss rates used as the basis for the estimate of credit losses during this period were modeled using historical data from peer banks and macroeconomic forecast data obtained from a third party vendor, which were then applied to Colony's recent default experience as a starting point. As of June 30, 2023, the Company expects that the markets in which it operates will experience a decline in economic conditions and an increase in the unemployment rate and level and trend of delinquencies, over the next two years. Management adjusted the historical loss experience for these expectations. No reversion adjustments were necessary, as the starting point for the Company's estimate was a cumulative loss rate covering the expected contractual term of the portfolio.
The following table represents the recorded investment in loans by portfolio segment and the balance of the allowance assigned to each segment based on the incurred loss methodology of evaluating the loans for impairment as of December 31, 2022.

The Company determines its individual reserves during its quarterly review of substandard loans. This process involves reviewing all loans with a risk grade of 6 or greater and an outstanding balance of $500,000 or more, regardless of the loans impairment classification.
The Company maintains an allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures such as unfunded balances for existing lines of credit, commitments to extend future credit, as well as both standby and commercial letters of credit when there is a contractual obligation to extend credit and when this extension of credit is not unconditionally cancellable. The allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense.

The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur, which is based on a historical funding study derived from internal information, and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life, which are the same loss rates that are used in computing the allowance for credit losses on loans. The allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments is separately classified on the balance sheet within Other liabilities.

(5) Derivatives
As part of its asset liability management activities, the Company may enter into interest rate swaps to help manage its interest rate risk position and mitigate exposure to the variability of future cash flows or other forecasted transactions. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company utilized interest rate swaps to hedge the variability of cash flows due to changes in interest rates on certain variable rate liabilities.
The notional amount of an interest rate swap does not represent the amount exchanged by the parties. The exchange of cash flows is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the interest rate swap agreements.
On June 23, 2023, the Company entered into a five-year interest rate swap with a notional amount totaling $25.0 million. On June 26, 2023 the Company entered into a three-year interest rate swap with a notional amount totaling $25.0 million. Both of the swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of certain variable rate liabilities.
A gain was recorded on the swap transactions, which totaled $9,000 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. Amounts reported in accumulated OCI related to swaps are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Bank's variable rate liabilities.
The following table presents the amounts recorded in the consolidated statements of income and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income relating to the interest rate swaps for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Other borrowings 63,399  78,352 
$ 218,399  $ 203,352 
Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) have maturities ranging from 2023 to 2028 and interest rates ranging from 3.69% to 5.41%. As collateral on the outstanding FHLB advances, the Company has provided a blanket lien on its portfolio of qualifying residential first mortgage loans, commercial loans, multifamily loans and HELOC loans. At June 30, 2023, the lendable collateral of those loans pledged is $252.3 million. At June 30, 2023, the Company had remaining credit availability from the FHLB of $591.9 million. The Company may be required to pledge additional qualifying collateral in order to utilize the full amount of the remaining credit line.
The Company's debentures issued in connection with trust preferred securities are recorded as other borrowings on the consolidated balance sheets, but, subject to certain limitations, qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $24.2 million of debentures underlying trust preferred securities were outstanding. The proceeds from the offerings were used to fund certain acquisitions, pay off holding company debt and inject capital into the bank subsidiary. The debentures underlying the trust preferred securities require quarterly interest payments.
On May 20, 2022, the Company completed a private placement of $40.0 million in fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due 2032 (the "Notes"). The Notes will bear a fixed rate of 5.25% for the first five years and will reset quarterly thereafter to then current three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 265 basis points for the five-year floating term. The Company is entitled to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, on any interest payment date on or after May 20, 2027, or at any time, in whole or in part, upon certain other specified events. At June 30, 2023, $39.1 million of the Notes, net of debt issuance costs were outstanding.
The aggregate stated maturities of other borrowed money at June 30, 2023 are as follows:

The Company also has available federal funds lines of credit with various financial institutions totaling $64.5 million, with no outstanding balance at June 30, 2023.
The Company has the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) of Atlanta utilizing the discount window. The discount window is an instrument of monetary policy that allows eligible institutions to borrow money from the FRB on a short-term basis to meet temporary liquidity shortages caused by internal or external disruptions. At June 30, 2023, the Company had $56.9 million borrowing capacity available under this arrangement, with no outstanding balances. The Company would be required to pledge certain available-for-sale investment securities as collateral under this agreement.
The Company also has the ability to participate in the FRB Term Funding Program, a new form of one-year emergency funding, with an available line of $100.0 million. The Company would be required to purchase Treasury securities or other debt obligations. The Company has not utilized this source of funding as of June 30, 2023.

(8) Commitments and Contingencies
Credit-Related Financial Instruments. The Company is a party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include cash or cash equivalents, negotiable instruments, real estate, accounts receivable, inventory, oil, gas and mineral interests, property, plant, and equipment.
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

COLONY BANKCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
 
Contract Amount
(dollars in thousands) June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Loan commitments $ 402,984  $ 379,997 
Letters of credit 4,284  3,333 
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.
Unfunded commitments under commercial lines of credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These lines of credit are uncollateralized and usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed.
Standby and performance letters of credit are conditional lending commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. Essentially all letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
Legal Contingencies. In the ordinary course of business, there are various legal proceedings pending against the Company and the Bank. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate liabilities, if any, arising from such proceedings would not, in the opinion of management, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position.

(9) Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting standards in the U.S. require disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The assumptions used in the estimation of the fair value of the Company and the Bank’s financial instruments are detailed hereafter. Where quoted prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted cash flows and other valuation techniques. The use of discounted cash flows can be significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows.
Generally accepted accounting principles related to Fair Value Measurements define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
•Level 1          inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
•Level 2          inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
•Level 3          inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and represent the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

The following disclosures should not be considered a surrogate of the liquidation value of the Company, but rather a good-faith estimate of the increase or decrease in value of financial instruments held by the Company since purchase, origination or issuance.
Cash and short-term investments – For cash, due from banks, bank-owned deposits and federal funds sold, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value and is classified as Level 1.
Investment securities – Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices where available and classified as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments and classified as Level 2. If a comparable is not available, the investment securities are classified as Level 3.
Other investments, at cost– The fair value of other bank stock approximates carrying value and is classified as Level 2. Fair values for investment funds are based on quoted market prices where available and classified as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments and classified as Level 2. If a comparable is not available, the investment securities are classified as Level 3.
Loans held for sale – The fair value of loans held for sale is determined on outstanding commitments from third party investors in the secondary markets and is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Loans – The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings. For variable rate loans, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Most loans are classified as Level 3.
Derivative instruments – The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The interest rate swaps are classified as Level 2.
Deposit liabilities – The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date and is classified as Level 2. The fair value of deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities and is classified as Level 2.
Federal funds purchased – The carrying amounts of Federal funds purchased approximate fair value and are classified as Level 2.
Federal Home Loan Bank advances– The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar advances would be obtained. Federal Home Loan Bank advances are classified as Level 2.
Other borrowings – The fair value of other borrowings is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows using an estimated interest rate based on current rates available to the Company for debt of similar remaining maturities and collateral terms. Other borrowings is classified as Level 2 due to their expected maturities.
Disclosures of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis, are required in the financial statements.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on many judgments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on existing on and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments include deferred income taxes and premises and equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:
Securities – Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 inputs include securities that have quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Examples of such instruments, which would generally be classified within level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, include certain collateralized mortgage and debt obligations and certain high-yield debt securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. When measuring fair value, the valuation techniques available under the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach are used. The Company’s evaluations are based on market data and the Company employs combinations of these approaches for its valuation methods depending on the asset class.
Collateral dependent impaired loans – Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, impaired loans were those loans which the Company measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value was generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets were included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that was significant to the fair value measurements.
Other Real Estate Owned – Other real estate owned assets are adjusted to fair value less estimated selling costs upon transfer of the loans to other real estate owned. Typically, an external, third-party appraisal is performed on the collateral upon transfer into the other real estate owned account to determine the asset’s fair value. Subsequent adjustments to the collateral’s value may be based upon either updated third-party appraisals or management’s knowledge of the collateral and the current real estate market conditions. Appraised amounts used in determining the asset’s fair value, whether internally or externally prepared, are discounted 10% to account for selling and marketing costs. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Because of the high degree of judgment required in estimating the fair value of other real estate owned assets and because of the relationship between fair value and general economic conditions, we consider the fair value of other real estate owned assets to be highly sensitive to changes in market conditions.

(10) Segment Information
The Company’s operating segments include banking, mortgage banking and small business specialty lending division. The reportable segments are determined by the products and services offered, and internal reporting. The Bank segment derives its revenues from the delivery of full-service financial services, including retail and commercial banking services and deposit accounts. The Mortgage Banking segment derives its revenues from the origination and sales of residential mortgage loans held for sale. The Small Business Specialty Lending Division segment derives its revenue from the origination, sales and servicing of Small Business Administration loans and other government guaranteed loans. Segment performance is evaluated using net interest income and noninterest income. Income taxes are allocated based on income before income taxes, and indirect expenses (includes management fees) are allocated based on various internal factors for each segment. Transactions among segments are made at fair value. Information reported internally for performance assessment follows. The following tables present information reported internally for performance assessment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023

(11) Regulatory Capital Matters
The amount of dividends payable to the parent company from the subsidiary bank is limited by various banking regulatory agencies. Upon approval by regulatory authorities, the Bank may pay cash dividends to the parent company in excess of regulatory limitations.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company and the Bank were categorized as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action in effect at such time. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Company and the Bank must have exceeded the well-capitalized guideline ratios in effect at the time, as set forth in the tables below, and have met certain other requirements. Management believes that the Company and the Bank exceeded all well-capitalized requirements at June 30, 2023, and there have been no conditions or events since quarter-end that would change the status of well-capitalized.
The following tables summarize regulatory capital information as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 on a consolidated basis and for the subsidiary, as defined.  Regulatory capital ratios for June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were calculated in accordance with the Basel III rules.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The purpose of this discussion and analysis is to focus on significant changes in the financial condition of Colony Bankcorp, Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiary, Colony Bank, from December 31, 2022 through June 30, 2023 and on our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's 2022 Form 10-K, and information presented elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing in Item 1.
Forward-looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “might,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “strive,” “projection,” “goal,” “target,” “outlook,” “aim,” “would,” “annualized” and “outlook,” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
A number of important factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements, including those factors discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the following: 
•the impact of current and future economic and market conditions generally (including seasonality) and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our primary market areas, including the effects of inflationary pressures, changes in interest rates, slowdowns in economic growth, and the potential for high unemployment rates, as well as the financial stress on borrowers and changes to customer and client behavior (including the velocity of loan repayment) and credit risk as a result of the foregoing

•changes in interest rate environment (including changes to the federal funds rate, the level and composition of deposits (as well as the cost of, and competition for, deposits), loan demand, liquidity and the values of loan collateral, securities and market fluctuations, and interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities), and competition in our markets may result in increased funding costs or reduced earning assets yields, thus reducing our margins and net interest income;

•our ability to comply with applicable capital and liquidity requirements, including our ability to generate liquidity internally or raise capital on favorable terms, including continued access to the debt and equity capital markets;

•the risk that a future economic downturn and contraction, including a recession, could have a material adverse effect on our capital, financial condition, credit quality, results of operations and future growth, including the risk that the strength of the current economic environment could be weakened by the impact of rising interest rates, supply chain challenges and inflation;
•factors that can impact the performance of our loan portfolio, including real estate values and liquidity in our primary market areas, the financial health of our borrowers and the success of various projects that we finance;
•concentration of our loan portfolio in real estate loans and changes in the prices, values and sales volumes of commercial and residential real estate;
•weakness in the real estate market, which can affect, among other things, the value of collateral securing mortgage loans, mortgage loan originations and delinquencies, and mortgage fee income;

•credit and lending risks associated with our construction and development, commercial real estate, commercial and industrial and residential real estate loan portfolios;
41


•negative impact in our mortgage banking services, including declines in our mortgage originations or profitability due to rising interest rates and increased competition and regulation, the Bank’s or third party’s failure to satisfy mortgage servicing obligations, loan modifications, the effects of judicial or regulatory requirements or guidance, and the possibility of the Bank being required to repurchase mortgage loans or indemnify buyers;

•our ability to attract sufficient loans that meet prudent credit standards, including in our construction and development, commercial and industrial and owner-occupied commercial real estate loan categories;
•our ability to attract and maintain business banking relationships with well-qualified businesses, real estate developers and investors with proven track records in our market areas;
•our ability to successfully manage our credit risk and the sufficiency of our allowance for credit losses ("ACL"), including the implementation of the Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") model;
•the adequacy of our reserves (including allowance for credit losses) and the appropriateness of our methodology for calculating such reserves;
•our ability to successfully execute our business strategy to achieve profitable growth;
•the concentration of our business within our geographic areas of operation in Georgia and Alabama and neighboring markets;
•our focus on small and mid-sized businesses;
•our ability to manage our growth;
•our ability to increase our operating efficiency;
•significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets and the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment securities;
•risks that our cost of funding could increase, in the event we are unable to continue to attract stable, low-cost deposits and reduce our cost of deposits;
•inability of our risk management framework to effectively mitigate credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, price risk, compliance risk, operational risk, strategic risk and reputational risk;
•our ability to maintain expenses in line with current projections;
•the makeup of our asset mix and investments;
•external economic, political and/or market factors, such as changes in monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve, the impact of the recent U.S. credit rating downgrade, inflation or deflation, changes in the demand for loans, and fluctuations in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits, which may have an adverse impact on our financial condition;
•the risks relating to past acquisition including, without limitation: unexpected transaction costs, including the costs of integrating operations; the risks that the businesses will not be integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; the potential failure to fully or timely realize expected revenues and revenue synergies, including as the result of revenues being lower than expected;

•uncertainty related to the transition away from the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”);

•continued or increasing competition from other financial institutions (including fintech companies), credit unions, and non-bank financial services companies, many of which are subject to different regulations than we are;
•challenges arising from unsuccessful attempts to expand into new geographic markets, products, or services;

42


•restraints on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to us, which could limit our liquidity;
•increased capital requirements imposed by banking regulators, which may require us to raise capital at a time when capital is not available on favorable terms or at all;
•a failure in the internal controls we have implemented to address the risks inherent to the business of banking;
•inaccuracies in our assumptions about future events, which could result in material differences between our financial projections and actual financial performance;
•changes in our management personnel or our inability to retain motivate and hire qualified management personnel;
•the dependence of our operating model on our ability to attract and retain experienced and talented bankers in each of our markets, which may be impacted as a result of labor shortages;
•our ability to identify and address cyber-security risks, fraud and systems errors;
•disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events, failures or interruptions in, or attacks on, our information technology systems;
•disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events affecting the third-party vendors who perform several of our critical processing functions;
•an inability to keep pace with the rate of technological advances due to a lack of resources to invest in new technologies;
•fraudulent and negligent acts by our clients, employees or vendors and our ability to identify and address such acts;
•risks related to potential acquisitions;
•the impact of any claims or legal actions to which we may be subject, including any effect on our reputation;
•compliance with governmental and regulatory requirements, including the Dodd-Frank Act and others relating to banking, consumer protection, securities and tax matters, and our ability to maintain licenses required in connection with commercial mortgage origination, sale and servicing operations;
•changes in the scope and cost of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance and other coverage;
•changes in our accounting standards;
•changes in tariffs and trade barriers;
•changes in federal tax law or policy;
•the institution and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings against us or to which we may become subject to;
•the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes;
•examinations by our regulatory authorities;
•the effects of war or other conflicts (including the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine), acts of terrorism, acts of God, natural disasters, health emergencies, epidemics or pandemics, climate changes, or other catastrophic events that may affect general economic conditions;
•the risks related to environmental, social and governance ("ESG") strategies and initiatives, the scope and pace of which could alter the Company's reputation and shareholder, associate, customer and third-party affiliations; and

43


•other risks and factors identified in our 2022 Form 10-K, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023, and in any of the Company's other reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and available on its website at www.sec.gov.
The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview
The following discussion and analysis presents the more significant factors affecting the Company’s financial condition as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and results of operations for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements, notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report.
At June 30, 2023, the Company had total consolidated assets of $3.1 billion, total loans, net of $1.8 billion, total deposits of $2.6 billion, and stockholders’ equity of $239.5 million. The Company reported net income of $5.3 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and $10.3 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2023 compared to net income of $3.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and $8.7 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2022. The increase in net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods ended June 30, 2022 was the result of the continued initiative to reduce noninterest expenses, primarily through a reduction in force which decreased compensation expense, offset by decreases in mortgage fee income and gains on sales of SBA loans.
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $19.3 million for both the second quarter of 2023 and 2022. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $40.1 million, compared to $38.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Although there was no change overall for the comparable quarterly periods and only a moderate increase in year to date comparisons, increases can be seen in both income on interest earning assets offset by expenses on interest bearing liabilities due to the significant rise in interest rates period over period. Income on interest earning assets increased $9.6 million to $30.9 million for the second quarter of 2023 and $17.8 million, to $59.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, each compared to the respective periods in 2022. Expense on interest bearing liabilities increased $9.6 million to $11.6 million for the second quarter of 2023 and $16.3 million, to $19.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, each compared to the respective periods in 2022.
Provision for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $200,000 and $1.1 million, which represents $430,000 and $1.2 million in provision for credit losses on loans and $230,000 and $91,000 in release of credit losses on unfunded commitments, respectively. This is compared to $1.1 million and $1.2 million for the same periods in 2022, which represents provision for loan losses. For the second quarter of 2023, there were net recoveries of $37,000 compared to net charge-offs of $56,000 for the same period in 2022. Net charge-offs for the first six months of 2023 were $200,000 compared to $97,000 for the same period in 2022. Colony’s allowance for credit losses on loans was $17.1 million, or 0.93% of total loans, compared to $16.1 million, or 0.93% of total loans, at December 31, 2022. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, nonperforming assets were $11.9 million and $6.4 million, or 0.38% and 0.22% of total assets, respectively.
Noninterest income of $9.0 million for the second quarter of 2023 was down $1.1 million, or 10.88%, from the second quarter of 2022. Noninterest income of $16.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was down $2.6 million, or 13.46% compared to the same period of 2022. These decreases were primarily due to decreases in both mortgage fee income and SBSL loan sales. See "Table 3 - Noninterest income" for more detail and discussion on the primary drivers to the decrease in noninterest income.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest expense was $21.4 million, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 12.44%, from the same period in 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest expense was $42.6 million, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 7.96%, from the same period in 2022. Decreases in noninterest expense were a result of overall decreases in salaries and employee benefits expenses related to the reduction in force mentioned above along with lower commissions and bonus expenses.

44


Data processing expense also decreased as a result of cost savings upon renewal of the core processing contract. See "Table 4 - Noninterest expense" for more detail and discussion on the primary drivers to the decrease in noninterest expense.
In June 2023, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts of $25.0 million each. Both were designated as cash flow hedges to mitigate against rising interest rates and help protect funding costs in future quarters.
Economic Conditions
The economic conditions and growth prospects for our markets, even against the headwinds of inflation and recessionary concerns, continue to reflect a solid and positive overall outlook with economic activity close to pre-pandemic levels. Increasing interest rates and rising building costs have caused some slowing of the highly robust single family housing market, however, there continues to be a shortage of housing in several Georgia markets. Worker shortages especially in the restaurant, hospitality and retail industries combined with supply chain disruptions impacting numerous industries and inflationary conditions has had some impact on the level of economic growth. Ongoing higher inflation levels and higher interest rates could have a negative impact on both our consumer and commercial borrowers.
CECL Adoption

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC Topic 326 which replaces the incurred loss approach for measuring credit losses with an expected loss model, referred to the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model. CECL applies to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost and certain off-balance-sheet credit exposures, which include, but are not limited to, loans, leases, held-to-maturity securities, loan commitments and financial guarantees. The adoption of this guidance resulted in a decrease of the allowance for credit losses on loans of $53,000, the creation of an allowance for unfunded commitments of $1.7 million and a reduction of retained earnings of $1.2 million, net of the increase in deferred tax assets of $410,000.

Going forward, the impact of utilizing the CECL approach to calculate the allowance for credit losses will be significantly influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of our loan portfolio, as well as the prevailing economic conditions and forecasts utilized. Material changes to these and other relevant factors may result in greater volatility to the provision for credit losses, and therefore, greater volatility to our reported earnings. See Notes 1 and 3 of our consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023, included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, for additional information on the on the allowance for credit losses and the allowance for unfunded commitments.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with GAAP and conform to general practices within the banking industry. We have identified certain of its accounting policies as “critical accounting policies,” consisting of those related to business combinations, allowance for credit losses and income taxes. In determining which accounting policies are critical in nature, we have identified the policies that require significant judgment or involve complex estimates. It is management's practice to discuss critical accounting policies with the Board of Directors' Audit Committee on a periodic basis, including the development, selection, implementation and disclosure of the critical accounting policies. The application of these policies has a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. Our financial results could differ significantly if different judgments or estimates are used in the application of these policies. All accounting policies described in Note 1 of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K should be reviewed for a greater understanding of how we record and report our financial performance. Other than our methodology for estimating allowance for credit losses (mentioned below), there have been no significant changes to the Significant Accounting Policies as described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K.
Reserve for Credit Losses

A consequence of lending activities is that we may incur credit losses. The amount of such losses will vary depending upon the risk characteristics of the loan lease portfolio as affected by economic conditions such as rising interest rates and the financial performance of borrower.

The reserve for credit losses consists of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) and the allowance for unfunded commitments. As a result of our January 1, 2023 adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, and its related amendments, our methodology for estimating the reserve for credit losses changed significantly from December 31, 2022. The standard replaced the “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” approach known as the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”).

45


The CECL approach requires an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). It removes the incurred loss approach’s threshold that delayed the recognition of a credit loss until it was “probable” a loss event was “incurred.”

The estimate of expected credit losses under the CECL approach is based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts. Historical loss experience is generally the starting point for estimating expected credit losses. We then consider whether the historical loss experience should be adjusted for asset-specific risk characteristics or current conditions at the reporting date that did not exist over the period from which historical experience was used. Finally, we consider forecasts about future economic conditions that are reasonable and supportable. The allowance for unfunded commitments represents the expected credit losses on off-balance sheet commitments such as unfunded commitments to extend credit. This allowance is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the CECL model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur.

Management’s evaluation of the appropriateness of the reserve for credit losses is often the most critical of accounting estimates for a financial institution. Our determination of the amount of the reserve for credit losses is a critical accounting estimate as it requires significant reliance on the credit risk rating we assign to individual borrowers, the use of estimates and significant judgment as to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, reliance on historical loss rates on homogenous portfolios, consideration of our quantitative and qualitative evaluation of economic factors, and the reliance on our reasonable and supportable forecasts. The reserve for credit losses attributable to each portfolio segment also includes an amount for inherent risks not reflected in the historical analyses. Relevant factors include, but are not limited to, concentrations of credit risk (geographic, large borrower, and industry), local/regional economic trends and conditions, changes in underwriting standards, changes in collateral values, experience and depth of lending staff, trends in delinquencies, and the volume and terms of loans.

Recent Industry Developments

During the first half of 2023, the banking industry experienced significant volatility with multiple high-profile bank failures and industry wide concerns related to liquidity, deposit outflows, uninsured deposit concentrations, unrealized securities losses and eroding consumer confidence in the banking system. Despite these negative industry developments, the Company’s liquidity position and balance sheet remains robust. The Company’s total deposits increased by 5.47% as compared to December 31, 2022, to $2.63 billion at June 30, 2023 as we experienced minimal deposit outflow in the first half of 2023. The Company’s uninsured deposits represented 30.73% of total Bank deposits at June 30, 2023 compared to 34.85% of total Bank deposits at December 31, 2022. The Company also took a number of preemptive actions, which included proactive outreach to clients and actions to maximize its funding sources in response to these recent developments. Furthermore, the Company’s capital remains strong with common equity Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 11.12% and 14.86%, respectively, as of June 30, 2023.

Results of Operations
We reported net income and diluted earnings per share of $5.3 million and $0.30, respectively, for the second quarter of 2023. This compares to net income and diluted earnings per share of $3.4 million and $0.19, respectively, for the same period in 2022. We reported net income and diluted earnings per share of $10.3 million and $0.59, respectively, for the first six months of 2023. This compares to net income and diluted earnings per share of $8.7 million and $0.52, respectively, for the same period in 2022.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on assets and the interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds, is the single largest component of total revenue. Management strives to optimize this income while balancing interest rate, credit and liquidity risks.
The banking industry uses two key ratios to measure relative profitability of net interest income. The net interest spread measures the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The interest rate spread eliminates the effect of noninterest-bearing deposits and gives a direct perspective on the effect of market interest rate movements. The net interest margin is an indication of the profitability of a company's balance sheet and is defined as net interest income as a percent of average total interest-earning assets, which includes the positive effect of funding a portion of interest-earning assets with noninterest-bearing deposits and stockholders' equity.

46


Fully taxable equivalent net interest income for the second quarter of 2023 and 2022 was $19.3 million for both periods. Although there was no change overall for the comparable quarterly periods, increases can be seen in rates on loans and securities, offset by rates paid on deposits and borrowings. The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2023 and 2022 was 2.77% and 3.15%, respectively. This decrease in net interest margin for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 is primarily a result of the increase in higher borrowing yields as well as higher yields paid on deposits, that outpaced the increase in rates on loans and investments.
Fully taxable equivalent net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $40.1 million and $38.6 million, respectively. This increase is primarily due to an increase in rates on loans and securities, partially offset by rates paid on deposits. The net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was 2.92% and 3.15% respectively. This decrease in net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 is primarily a result of the increase in higher borrowing yields as well as higher yields paid on deposits, that outpaced the increase in rates on loans and investments
The following tables indicates the relationship between interest income and interest expense and the average amounts of assets and liabilities for the periods indicated. As shown in the tables, both average assets and average liabilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 increased compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in average assets was primarily driven by the increase in the loan portfolio of $407.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, which primarily reflects organic loan growth, partially offset by a decrease of $66.1 million in the securities portfolio and a decrease in deposits in banks and short term investments of $799,000. The increase in average liabilities for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was funded through an increase in interest bearing deposits of $266.3 million, borrowings of $150.7 million. The increase in average assets was primarily driven by the increase in the loan portfolio of $412.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, which primarily reflects organic loan growth, partially offset by a decrease of $59.2 million in the securities portfolio and a decrease in deposits in banks and short term investments of $54.7 million. The increase in average liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was funded through an increase in interest bearing deposits of $197.8 million and borrowings of $149.7 million. The net interest spread, as well as the net interest margin, will continue to be impacted by future changes in short-term and long-term interest rate levels, as well as the impact from the competitive environment.
The yield on total interest-bearing liabilities increased from 0.43% in the second quarter of 2022 to 2.04% in the second quarter of 2023. The yield on total interest-bearing liabilities increased from 0.33% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to 1.77% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 due to increases in the federal funds interest rate during 2022 and 2023. Since June 2022, the Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") has raised the interest rate 350 basis points through June 30, 2023.

Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses is based on management's evaluation of probable, inherent losses in the loan portfolio and unfunded commitments and the corresponding analysis of the allowance for credit losses at quarter-end. Provision for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $200,000 and $1.1 million compared to $1.1 million and $1.2 million for the same period in 2022, respectively. The amount of provision expense recorded in each period was the amount required such that the total allowance for credit losses reflected the appropriate balance, in the estimation of management, sufficient to cover expected credit losses over the expected life of a loan exposure and unfunded commitments where the likelihood is that funding will occur. The provision for credit losses for quarter ended June 30, 2023 includes $430,000 in provision for credit losses on loans and $230,000 in release of credit losses on unfunded commitments. The provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $1.2 million in credit losses on loans and $91,000 in release of credit losses on unfunded commitments. See the section captioned “Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses” elsewhere in this discussion for further analysis of the provision for credit losses.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest income decreased $1.1 million and $2.6 million compared to the same periods in 2022. The primary reason for the three and six month decreases were due to decreases in both mortgage fee income and gains on sales of SBA loans, partially offset by an increase in other noninterest income.
Service charges on deposit accounts. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, services charges on deposits was $2.0 million and $3.9 million compared to $1.9 million and $3.7 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $132,000 and $221,000, respectively. These increases in service charges on deposits can be attributed to the Company's strong retail banking center footprint and our ability to continue to grow core deposits.
Mortgage Fee Income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, mortgage fee income was $2.0 million and $3.2 million compared to $2.7 million and $5.6 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $722,000, and $2.5 million, respectively. These decreases in mortgage fee income were the result of rising interest rates which has caused a slowdown in the demand for mortgage products and thus a decrease in mortgage fee income.
Gain on Sales of SBA loans. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, net realized gains on the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans totaled $1.1 million and $2.2 million compared to the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $758,000 and $1.4 million, respectively. These decreases are related to the shift in the Company's production towards adjustable rate portfolio products which caused a decrease in our secondary market production and in turn a decrease in the gain on sales of SBA loans.
Interchange Fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, interchange fee income was $2.1 million and $4.2 million compared to $2.2 million and $4.2 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $28,000 and an increase of $39,000, respectively. These slight movements in interchange fees are the result of customer use of our MasterCard and Discover card programs whose buying habits can fluctuate between periods.
Other noninterest income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, other noninterest income was $1.3 million and $2.4 million compared to $1.0 million and $1.4 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $278,000, and $1.0 million, respectively. The increase in other noninterest income for the second quarter 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily attributable to an increase in gains on sales of assets of $94,000, an increase in merchant services income of $63,000 along with increases in SBA servicing and other related fee income. The increase in other noninterest for the six months ended June 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was attributable to equity investment market valuation gains in the first half of 2023 of $94,000 compared to market valuation losses of $264,000 in the first half of 2022 along with increases in SBA servicing and other related fee income. Also, increases were noted in income from the merchant services and wealth advisor divisions.

Total noninterest expense $ 21,432  $ 24,476  $ (3,044) (12.4) % $ 42,597  $ 46,282  $ (3,685) (8.0) %
Noninterest expense decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 by $3.0 million and $3.7 million compared to the same periods in 2022. Decreases were seen in all categories for the three month period and in all but advertising and public relations for the six month period.
Salaries and employee benefits. Salaries and employee benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $13.3 million and $26.0 million compared to $15.1 million and $28.3 million and for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $1.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively. These decreases in salaries and employee benefits expenses are related to a reduction in force initiative along with lower commissions and bonus expenses.
Information technology expenses. Information technology expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.0 million and $4.3 million compared to $2.5 million and $4.9 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $548,000 and $561,000, respectively. These decreases relate to a decrease in data processing expenses due to a renewed contract with the Company's core processor resulting in cost savings which is partially offset by increased software expenses.
Professional fees. Professional fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $881,000 and $1.6 million compared to $1.1 million and $1.9 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $192,000 and $350,000, respectively. These decreases are the result of lower consulting and legal fees in 2023 compared to 2022 which included fees associated with the acquisition of SouthCrest Financial Group, Inc.
Advertising and public relations. Advertising and public relations expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $673,000 and $1.7 million compared to $695,000 and $1.5 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $22,000 for the three month period and an increase of $202,000 for the six month period, respectively. This increase for the six month period is the result of a donation to the Georgia Scholarship Program during the first quarter of 2023.
Communications. Communications expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $192,000 and $486,000 compared to $417,000 and $854,000 for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $225,000 and $368,000, respectively. The decrease for both periods is the result of telephone service related to the acquisition of SouthCrest Financial Group, Inc. that was paid through the end of the contract in June 2022.
Other noninterest expenses. Other noninterest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.8 million and $5.4 million compared to $3.1 million and $5.5 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $224,000 and $114,000, respectively. These decreases relate primarily to decreased servicing rights valuation, travel and entertainment and printing and supplies, partially offset by increases in SBA broker fees, other loan related costs and city and county taxes.

52


Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $1.2 million and $2.3 million compared to $234,000 and $1.4 million for the same periods in 2022. The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were 18.4% and 18.3% compared to 6.4% and 13.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The largest driver of the difference is the tax exempt income primarily from BOLI and tax exempt interest along with the favorable tax impact of the donation made to the Georgia Scholarship Program during the first quarter of 2023 and Georgia state tax credits in 2022.
Balance Sheet Review
Total assets increased to $3.1 billion at June 30, 2023 from $2.9 billion at December 31, 2022.

Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses
At June 30, 2023, gross loans outstanding (excluding loans held for sale) were $1.8 billion, an increase of $101.7 million, or 5.9%, compared to $1.7 billion at December 31, 2022.
At June 30, 2023, approximately 66.9% of our loans are secured by commercial real estate. While we have seen significant growth in the commercial real estate portfolio over the past several months, we have now shifted our focus away from commercial real estate lending for 2023. We are starting to see our loan pipelines decrease as we continue to increase loan pricing and maintain tightened credit standards.
The following table presents a summary of the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The Company's risk mitigation processes include an independent loan review designed to evaluate the credit risk in the loan portfolio and to ensure credit grade accuracy. The analysis serves as a tool to assist management in assessing the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. Loans classified as "substandard" are loans which are inadequately protected by the current credit worthiness and paying capacity of the borrower and/or the collateral pledged. These assets exhibit well-defined weaknesses or are showing signs there is a distinct possibility the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. These weaknesses may be characterized by past due performance, operating losses and/or questionable collateral values. Loans classified as "doubtful" are those loans that have characteristics similar to substandard loans but have an increased risk of loss. Loans classified as "loss" are those loans which are considered uncollectible and are in the process of being charged off.
The Company regularly monitors the composition of the loan portfolio as part of its evaluation over the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. The Company focuses on the following loan categories: (1) construction, land & land development; (2) commercial, financial & agricultural; (3) other commercial real estate; (4) residential real estate; and (5) consumer and other.
The allowance for credit losses for loans is a reserve established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses for loans is based on management’s evaluation of the size and composition of the loan portfolio, the level of non-performing and past-due loans, historical trends of charged off loans and recoveries, prevailing economic conditions and other factors management deems appropriate. The Company’s management has established an allowance for credit losses for loans which it believes is adequate to cover expected credit losses over the expected life of a loan exposure and unfunded commitments where the likelihood is that funding will occur. Based on a credit evaluation of the loan portfolio, management presents a quarterly review of the allowance for credit losses for loans and allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments to the Company’s Board of Directors, which primarily focuses on risk by evaluating individual loans in certain risk categories.

53


These categories have also been established by management and take the form of loan grades. By grading the loan portfolio in this manner the Company’s management is able to effectively evaluate the portfolio by risk, which management believes is the most effective way to analyze the loan portfolio and thus analyze the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses on loans.
The allowance for credit losses on loans is established by examining (1) the large classified loans, nonaccrual loans and loans considered impaired and evaluating them individually to determine the specific reserve allocation and (2) the remainder of the loan portfolio to allocate a portion of the allowance based on past loss experience and the economic conditions for the particular loan category. The Company also considers other factors such as changes in lending policies and procedures; changes in national, regional and/or local economic and business conditions; changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; changes in the experience, ability and depth of either the market president or lending staff; changes in the volume and severity of past-due and classified loans; changes in the quality of the loan review system; and other factors management deems appropriate.
The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. The ACL is calculated using the same aggregate reserve rates calculated for the funded portion of loans at the portfolio level applied to the amount of commitments expected to fund.
The allowance for credit losses on loans was $17.1 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $12.9 million at June 30, 2022, an increase of $4.2 million, or 32.1%. The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of loans was 0.93% and 0.96% at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The provision for credit losses was $200,000 compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The provision for credit losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 includes $430,000 in credit losses on loans and a release of $230,000 in credit losses on unfunded commitments. The provision for credit losses was $1.1 million compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $1.2 million in credit losses on loans and a release of $91,000 in credit losses on unfunded commitments. The amount of provision expense recorded in each period was the amount required such that the total allowance for credit losses reflected the appropriate balance, in the estimation of management, that was sufficient to cover expected credit losses on loans over the expected life of a loan exposure and unfunded commitments where the likelihood is that funding will occur. The primary reason for the decrease in allowance to loans as a percentage for loans and provision is primarily due to the Bank's slowdown in loan growth, with a portion of that loan growth being the funding of loan commitments that were previously reserved for under the CECL methodology..
Additional information about the Company’s allowance for credit losses is provided in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Nonperforming Assets
Asset quality experienced a slight decrease during the first six months of 2023. Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more, repossessed personal property and other real estate owned ("OREO"). Nonaccrual loans totaled $11.1 million at June 30, 2023, an increase of $5.4 million, or 94.3%, from $5.7 million at December 31, 2022. There were no loans contractually past due 90 days or more and still accruing or any repossessed personal property for either period presented. OREO totaled $792,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $651,000 at December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, total nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets increased to 0.38% compared with 0.22% at December 31, 2022. The increase in nonperforming assets was primarily due to the repurchase of the government guaranteed portion of nonperforming loans, which were repurchased as part of the liquidation process and have no expected losses.
Generally, loans are placed on non-accrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question, as well as when required by regulatory requirements. Loans to a customer whose financial condition has deteriorated are considered for non-accrual status whether or not the loan is 90 days or more past due. Once interest accruals are discontinued, accrued but uncollected interest is charged to current year operations. Subsequent loan payments made on nonaccrual loans are recorded as a reduction of principal, and interest income is recorded only after principal recovery is reasonably assured. Classification of a loan as nonaccrual does not preclude the ultimate collection of loan principal or interest.
Foreclosed property is initially recorded at fair value, less estimated costs to sell. If the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, at the time of foreclosure is less than the loan balance, the deficiency is charged against the allowance for credit losses on loans. If the lesser of the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, or the listed selling price, less the costs to sell, of the foreclosed property decreases during the holding period, a valuation allowance is established with a charge to foreclosed property expense. When the foreclosed property is sold, a gain or loss is recognized on the sale for the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the property.
Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:

Deposits
Deposits at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:
Table 9 - Deposits
(dollars in thousands) June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Noninterest-bearing deposits $ 541,119  $ 569,170 
Interest-bearing deposits 733,708  831,152 
Savings 659,137  617,135 
Time, $250,000 and over 184,459  114,780 
Other time 508,788  358,760 
Total deposits $ 2,627,211  $ 2,490,997 
Total deposits increased $136.2 million to $2.63 billion at June 30, 2023 from $2.49 billion at December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, 20.6% of total deposits were comprised of noninterest-bearing accounts and 79.4% were comprised of interest-bearing deposit accounts, compared to 22.8% and 77.2% as of December 31, 2022, respectively. The increase in our deposits is due primarily to the increase in rates the Company offers on its deposit products coupled with the Company's diversified core deposit base and long customer relationships. While the market is experiencing repricing of deposits, we have not seen any significant outflows. An increase in brokered deposits used to fund loan growth has also contributed to the overall increase in deposits.
We had $112.4 million and $50.8 million in brokered deposits at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We use brokered deposits, subject to certain limitations and requirements, as a source of funding to support our asset growth and augment the deposits generated from our branch network, which are our principal source of funding. Our level of brokered deposits varies from time to time depending on competitive interest rate conditions and other factors, and tends to increase as a percentage of total deposits when the brokered deposits are less costly than issuing internet certificates of deposit or borrowing from the FHLB.
The Company's estimated uninsured deposits were $817.8 million at June 30, 2023, or 30.73% of total Bank deposits compared to $882.2 million at December 31, 2022, or 34.85% of total Bank deposits. Adjusted uninsured deposit estimate (which excludes deposits collateralized by public funds and internal accounts) were $489.9 million at June 30, 2023, or 18.41% of total Bank deposits compared to $531.7 million at December 31, 2022, or 21.01% of total Bank deposits. Adjusted uninsured deposits represent a small percentage of our overall deposits, which increases the stability of our deposit base and lowers our overall funding risk.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company is a party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. The type of collateral held varies, but may include cash or cash equivalents, unimproved or improved real estate, personal property or other acceptable collateral.
See Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023, included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, for a table setting forth the financial instruments that were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk and more information regarding our off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

57


Liquidity
An important part of the Bank's liquidity resides in the asset portion of the balance sheet, which provides liquidity primarily through loan interest and principal repayments and the maturities and sales of securities, as well as the ability to use these assets as collateral for borrowings on a secured basis.
The Bank's main source of liquidity is customer interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposit accounts. Liquidity is also available from wholesale funding sources consisting primarily of Federal funds purchased, FHLB advances and brokered deposits. These sources of liquidity are generally short-term in nature and are used as necessary to fund asset growth and meet other short-term liquidity needs. The Company also has access to the FRB Term Funding Program which offers loans to eligible depository institutions of up to one year in length.
To plan for contingent sources of funding not satisfied by both local and out-of-market deposit balances, the Company and the Bank have established multiple borrowing sources to augment their funds management. The Company has borrowing capacity through membership of the FHLB program. The Bank has also established overnight borrowing for Federal Funds purchased through various correspondent banks. There were no outstanding balances of Federal Funds purchased at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $154.8 million and $80.7 million, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents has increased since year end 2022, primarily due to increases in deposits. Management believes the various funding sources discussed above are adequate to meet the Company’s liquidity needs without any material adverse impact on our operating results.
Liquidity management involves the matching of cash flow requirements of customers and the ability of the Company to manage those requirements. These requirements of customers include, but are not limited to, deposits being withdrawn or providing assurance to borrowers that sufficient funds are available to meet their credit needs. We strive to maintain an adequate liquidity position by managing the balances and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities so that the balance we have in short-term assets at any given time will adequately cover any reasonably anticipated need for funds. Additionally, we maintain relationships with correspondent banks, which could provide funds on short notice, if needed. We have also invested in FHLB stock for the purpose of establishing credit lines with the FHLB. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $155.0 million and $125.0 million, respectively, of outstanding advances from the FHLB. Based on the values of loans pledged as collateral, we had $591.9 million and $574.7 million of additional borrowing availability with the FHLB at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Other sources of liquidity include overnight borrowings from the Federal Reserve Discount Window, as well as access to the FRB Term Funding Program, of $56.9 million and $100.0 million, respectively, of which there was no outstanding balance on either facility at June 30, 2023. The Company also had unencumbered securities of $436.3 million and $121.2 million in FRB Reserves as of June 30, 2023. Unencumbered investment securities provide the ability to either be pledged as collateral with borrowing sources or sold and converted to cash.
The Company is a separate entity from the Bank, and as such it must provide for its own liquidity. The Company is responsible for the payment of dividends declared for its common shareholders and payment of interest and principal on any outstanding debt or trust preferred securities. These obligations are met through internal capital resources such as service fees and dividends from the Bank, which are limited by applicable laws and regulations.

Capital Resources
The Company and the Bank are required under federal law to maintain certain minimum capital levels based on ratios of capital to total assets and capital to risk-weighted assets. The required capital ratios are minimums, and the federal banking agencies may determine that a banking organization, based on its size, complexity or risk profile, must maintain a higher level of capital in order to operate in a safe and sound manner. Risks such as concentration of credit risks and the risk arising from non-traditional activities, as well as the institution’s exposure to a decline in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates, and an institution’s ability to manage those risks are important factors that are to be taken into account by the federal banking agencies in assessing an institution’s overall capital adequacy.
The table below summarizes the capital requirements applicable to the Company and the Bank in order to be considered “well-capitalized” from a regulatory perspective, as well as the Company's and the Bank’s capital ratios as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company and the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and was considered to be “well-capitalized” as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. There have been no conditions or events since June 30, 2023 that management believes would change this classification.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's primary market risk exposures are credit risk, interest rate risk, and to a lesser degree, liquidity risk. The Bank operates under an Asset Liability Management Policy which is approved by the ALCO, which is a Board committee that meets regularly. The policy outlines limits on interest rate risk in terms of changes in net interest income and changes in the net market values of assets and liabilities over certain changes in interest rate environments. These measurements are made through a simulation model which projects the impact of changes in interest rates on the Bank's assets and liabilities. The policy also outlines responsibility for monitoring interest rate risk and the process for the approval, implementation and monitoring of interest rate risk strategies to achieve the Bank's interest rate risk objectives.
The following table presents our interest sensitivity position at the dates indicated.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for ensuring that information the Company is required to disclose in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's senior management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
