Capital Bank Financial Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


1. Basis of Presentation
Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations
Capital Bank Financial Corp. (“CBF” or the “Company”; formerly known as North American Financial Holdings, Inc.) is a bank holding company incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in Florida whose business is conducted primarily through Capital Bank, National Association (“Capital Bank, NA” or the “Bank”). CBF has a total of 162 full service banking offices located in Florida, North and South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements (unaudited) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals and disclosures considered necessary for a fair interim presentation have been included. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For further information refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
Out of Period Adjustments
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a correction of an error resulting from the state net operating loss that the Company was not entitled to subsequent to the 2011 Green Bankshares acquisition. The impact of this correction decreased deferred tax assets and increased goodwill by $2.5 million. After evaluating the quantitative and qualitative aspects of this error, the Company concluded that its prior period financial statements were not materially misstated.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)—Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern". The amendments in this update provide guidance in U.S. GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this update apply to all entities and will be effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-14, "Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructuring by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40)—Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure". The amendment in this update requires that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if certain conditions are met. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments in this update affect creditors that hold government-guaranteed mortgage loans, including those guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"), and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs ("VA"). This ASU will be effective for the annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718)—Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period”. This update provides specific guidance on whether to treat a performance target that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition that affects vesting or as a nonvesting condition that affects the grant-date fair value of an award. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, “Transfers and Servicing (topic 860)—Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financing, and Disclosures”. This update changes the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and linked repurchase financings to secured borrowing accounting, which is consistent with the accounting for other repurchase agreements. The amendments also require two new disclosures. The first disclosure requires an entity to disclose information on transfers accounted for as sales in transactions that are economically similar to repurchase agreements. The second disclosure provides increased transparency about the types of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. The accounting changes in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. The disclosure for certain transactions accounted for as a sale is required to be presented for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and the disclosure for repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions accounted for as secured borrowings is required to be presented for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-9, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. This update clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. This ASU, which does not apply to financial instruments, is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine the impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-4, “Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructuring by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” This update clarifies that when an in-substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1)the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2)the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-1, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” This ASU allows for use of the proportional amortization method for qualified affordable housing projects if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, the initial cost of the investment is amortized in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and the net investment performance is recognized in the income statement as a component of income tax expense. This ASU provides for a practical expedient, which allows for amortization of only expected tax credits over the period tax credits are expected to be received. This method is permitted if it produces a measurement that is substantially similar to the measurement that would result from using both tax credits and other tax benefits. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share is computed as net income attributable to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options and unvested restricted shares computed using the treasury stock method. Earnings per share have been computed based on the following:

Proceeds from sales of securities were $22.3 million and $172.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Gross gains of $0.3 million and $1.4 million were realized on sales of these investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Gross losses of $0.8 million were realized on sales of these investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Proceeds from sales of securities were $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Gross gains of $0.2 million were realized on sales of these investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
During the third quarter of 2013, the Company transferred $511.0 million of available-for-sale securities to held-to-maturity securities, reflecting the Company’s intent and ability to hold those securities to maturity. Transfers of investment securities into the held-to-maturity category from the available-for-sale category are accounted for at fair value at the date of transfer. The related $9.7 million of unrealized holding loss, net of tax, that was included in the transfer is retained in other comprehensive income (loss) and is being amortized as an adjustment to interest income over the remaining life of the securities. There were no gains or losses recognized as a result of this transfer.
The estimated fair value of investment securities at September 30, 2014 , by contractual maturity, is shown in the table that follows. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or repay obligations without call or prepayment penalties. Debt securities not due at a single maturity date are shown separately.

As of September 30, 2014, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of 130 securities, 40 of which were in an unrealized loss position. The majority of unrealized losses are related to the Company’s mortgage-backed securities.
The majority of the mortgage-backed securities at September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013 were issued by U.S. government-sponsored entities and agencies, which the government has affirmed its commitment to support. Unrealized losses associated with these securities are attributable to changes in interest rates and illiquidity, and not credit quality, and because the Company does not have the intent to sell these mortgage-backed securities and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
At December 31, 2013, we owned a collateralized debt obligation (“CDO”) collateralized by trust preferred securities issued primarily by banks and several insurance companies. We sold our investment in the CDO on January 7, 2014. Proceeds from the sale were $0.8 million and gross gains were $0.3 million.
Investment securities having carrying values of approximately $314.1 million and $313.5 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, were pledged to secure public funds on deposit, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and for other purposes as required by law.

Total loans include $6.4 million and $8.0 million of 1-4 family residential loans held for sale and $9.2 million and $3.8 million of net deferred loan origination costs and fees as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
As of September 30, 2014, other loans include $46.5 million, $47.3 million and $2.1 million of farm land, state and political subdivision obligations and deposit customer overdrafts, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, other loans include $49.7 million, $36.2 million and $2.2 million of farm land, state and political subdivision obligations and deposit customer overdrafts, respectively.
Covered loans represent loans acquired from the FDIC subject to loss sharing agreements. Covered loans are further broken out into (i) loans acquired with evidence of credit impairment (“Purchased Credit Impaired or PCI Loans”) and (ii) non-PCI loans. Loans originated or purchased by the Company (“New Loans”) and loans acquired through the purchase of CBKN, GRNB, SCMF and TIBB, are not subject to the loss sharing agreements and are classified as “non covered.” Additionally, certain consumer loans acquired through the acquisition of First National Bank of the South, Metro Bank and Turnberry Bank (collectively, the “Failed Banks”) from the FDIC, are specifically excluded from the loss sharing agreements.
The Company designates loans as PCI by evaluating both qualitative and quantitative factors. At the time of acquisition, the Company accounted for the PCI loans by segregating each portfolio into loan pools with similar risk characteristics. Over the lives of the acquired PCI loans, the Company continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected on each loan pool. The Company evaluates, at each balance sheet date, whether its estimates of the present value of the cash flows from the loan pools, determined using the effective interest rates, has decreased, such that the present value of such cash flows is less than the recorded investment of the pool, and if so, recognizes a provision for loan loss in its consolidated statement of income, unless interest rate driven. Additionally, if we have favorable changes in our estimates of cash flows expected to be collected for a loan pool such that the then-present value exceeds the recorded investment of that pool, we will first reverse any previously established allowance for loan losses for the pool. If such estimate exceeds the amount of any previously established allowance, we will accrete future interest income over the remaining life of the pool at a rate which, when used to discount the expected cash flows, results in the then-present value of such cash flows equaling the recorded investment of the pool at the time of the revised estimate.
The table below presents a roll forward of accretable yield and income expected to be earned related to PCI loans and the amount of non-accretable difference at the end of the period. Nonaccretable difference represents estimated contractually required payments in excess of estimated cash flows expected to be collected. The accretable yield represents the excess of estimated cash flows expected to be collected over the carrying amount of the PCI loans. Other represents reductions of accretable yield due to non-credit events such as interest rate reductions on variable rate PCI loans and prepayment activity on PCI loans.

The accretable yield is accreted into interest income over the estimated life of the PCI loans using the level yield method. The accretable yield will change due to changes in: 
The estimate of the remaining life of PCI loans which may change the amount of future interest income, and possibly principal, expected to be collected;
The estimate of the amount of contractually required principal and interest payments over the estimated life that will not be collected (the nonaccretable difference); and
Indices for PCI loans with variable rates of interest.
For PCI loans, the impact of loan modifications is included in the evaluation of expected cash flows for subsequent decreases or increases of cash flows. For variable rate PCI loans, expected future cash flows will be recalculated as the rates adjust over the lives of the loans. At acquisition, the expected future cash flows were based on the variable rates that were in effect at that time.
Because of the loss protection provided by the FDIC, the risks of covered loans and foreclosed real estate are significantly different from those assets not covered under the loss share agreement. Refer to Note 7 – Other Real Estate Owned for the covered balances of other real estate owned.

Pooled PCI loans are not classified as nonaccrual as they are considered to be accruing because their interest income relates to the accretable yield recognized under accounting for purchased credit-impaired loans and not to contractual interest payments.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed at origination and upon identification of a material change for all loans, on an annual basis for commercial loans exceeding $0.5 million and at least quarterly for loans not rated Pass. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
 
Pass —These loans range from superior quality with minimal credit risk to loans requiring heightened management attention but that are still an acceptable risk and continue to perform as contracted.
Special Mention —Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard —Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful —Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Troubled Debt Restructuring
If a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, the Bank may consider, in certain circumstances, modifying the terms of their loan to maximize collection of amounts due. A troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) typically involves either a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan, an extension of the loan’s maturity date(s) with a stated rate lower than the current market rate for a new loan with similar risk, or in limited circumstances, a reduction of the principal balance of the loan or the loan’s accrued interest. Upon modification of a loan, the Bank measures the related impairment as the excess of the recorded investment in the loan over the discounted expected future cash flows. The present value of expected future cash flows is discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. If the impairment analysis results in a loss, an allowance for loan losses is established for the loan. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, loans modified in TDRs were nominal. Because of the immateriality of the amount and the nature of the modifications, the modifications did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or on the determination of the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2014. The Company had loans modified in TDRs with recorded investments of $1.2 million and $3.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. The Company had loans modified in TDRs with recorded investments of $1.2 million and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

6. FDIC Indemnification Asset
The Company has recorded an indemnification asset related to loss sharing agreements entered into with the FDIC wherein the FDIC will reimburse the Company for certain amounts related to certain acquired loans and other real estate owned should the Company experience a loss. Under the loss sharing arrangements, the FDIC has agreed to absorb 80% of all future credit losses and workout expenses on these assets which occur prior to the expiration of the loss sharing agreements. These agreements resulted from the purchase of the Failed Banks.
The loss sharing agreements consist of three (one for each Failed Bank) single-family shared-loss agreements and three (one for each Failed Bank) commercial and other loans shared-loss agreements. The single family shared-loss agreements provide for FDIC loss sharing and our reimbursement for recoveries to the FDIC for ten years from July 16, 2010 for single-family residential loans. The commercial shared-loss agreements provide for FDIC loss sharing for five years from July 16, 2010 and our reimbursement for recoveries to the FDIC for eight years from July 16, 2010 for all other covered assets.
The following is a summary of the activity in the FDIC indemnification asset:

8. Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Short-Term Borrowings
Short-term borrowings include securities sold under agreements to repurchase and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”).
The Bank has securities sold under agreements to repurchase with customers. These agreements are collateralized by investment securities of the United States Government or its agencies which are chosen by the Bank. The amounts outstanding at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were $23.8 million and $24.9 million, respectively.
The Bank invests in FHLB stock for the purpose of establishing credit lines with the FHLB. The credit availability to the Bank is based on a percentage of the Bank’s total assets as reported on the most recent quarterly financial information submitted to the regulators subject to the pledging of sufficient collateral. The Bank’s collateral with the FHLB consists of a blanket floating lien pledge of the Bank’s residential 1-4 family mortgage, multifamily, home equity line of credit and commercial real estate secured loans. The amounts of eligible collateral at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 provided for incremental borrowing availability of up to $58.7 million and $95.4 million, respectively.
At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Bank had $25.7 million and $25.6 million in letters of credit issued by the FHLB respectively, of which $25.2 million are used as collateral for public fund deposits in lieu of pledging securities to the State of Florida.
The advances as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of the following:

Subordinated Debentures
Through its acquisitions of CBKN, GRNB, SCMF and TIBB, the Company assumed thirteen separate pooled offerings of trust preferred securities. The Company is not considered the primary beneficiary of the trusts (variable interest entities), therefore the trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but rather the subordinated debentures are presented as liabilities. The trusts consist of wholly-owned statutory trust subsidiaries for the purpose of issuing the trust preferred securities. The trusts used the proceeds from the issuance of trust preferred securities to acquire junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures of the Company. The trust preferred securities essentially mirror the debt securities, carrying a cumulative preferred dividend equal to the interest rate on the debt securities. The debt securities and the trust preferred securities each have 30-year lives. The trust preferred securities and the debt securities are callable by the Company or the trust, at their respective option after a period of time, and at varying premiums and sooner in specific events, subject to prior approval by the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”), if then required. Deferral of interest payments on the trust preferred securities is allowed for up to 60 months without being considered an event of default. On March 18, 2013, the Company called and redeemed $34.5 million of trust preferred securities issued by SCMF, which had a fixed interest rate of 7.95%. The prepayment resulted in a $0.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt. On September 7, 2013 the Company called and redeemed $8.0 million of trust preferred securities issued by TIBB, which had a fixed interest rate of 10.60% The prepayment resulted in a $0.4 million gain on extinguishment of debt.
The subordinated debentures as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of the following:

10. Shareholders’ Equity and Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements
The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements results in certain discretionary and required actions by regulators that could have an effect on the Company’s operations. The regulations require the Company and the Bank to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
To be considered well capitalized or adequately capitalized as defined under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must maintain minimum Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and Total Risk-based ratios. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Bank maintained capital ratios exceeding the requirement to be considered well capitalized. These minimum ratios along with the actual ratios for the Company and the Bank are presented in the following tables:

In August 2010, Capital Bank, NA entered into an Operating Agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC Operating Agreement”). At present, the OCC Operating Agreement requires Capital Bank, NA to maintain total capital equal to at least 12% of risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 capital equal to at least 11% of risk-weighted assets and a minimum leverage ratio of 10% (Tier 1 Capital ratio).
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company and the Bank met all capital requirements to which they were subject. Tier 1 Capital for the Company includes trust preferred securities to the extent allowable.
The OCC Operating Agreement prohibited Capital Bank, NA from paying a dividend to the Company for three years following the acquisition of the Failed Banks and, now that the three-year period elapsed, imposes other restrictions on Capital Bank’s ability to pay dividends, including requiring prior approval from the OCC before any distribution is made. Dividends that may be paid by a national bank are limited to that bank’s retained net profits for the preceding two years plus retained net profits up to the date of any dividend declaration in the current calendar year. On September 5, 2013 and July 8, 2014, the OCC approved dividends to the Company by its subsidiary Capital Bank N.A., of $105.0 million and $56.0 million, respectively.
Share Repurchases
During 2013 and 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized stock repurchase plans of up to $200.0 million. Stock repurchases may be made from time to time, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The approved stock repurchase programs do not obligate the Company to repurchase any particular amount of shares, and the programs may be extended, modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company repurchased $19.5 million, or 819,773 common shares at an average price of $23.78 per share and $85.4 million, or 3,586,771 common shares at average price of $23.80 per share, respectively.
As of September 30, 2014, the Company has repurchased a total of $155.3 million, or 7,348,088 common shares at an average price of $21.14 per share with $44.7 million of remaining availability for future share repurchases.
The Company accounts for treasury stock using the cost method as a reduction of shareholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and statement of changes in shareholders’ equity.

11. Stock-Based Compensation
As of September 30, 2014, the Company had two compensation plans, the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan ("the "2010 Plan") and the 2013 Omnibus Compensation Plan (the “2013 Plan”) under which shares of its common stock are issuable in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, stock bonus awards and other incentive awards. The 2010 Plan was replaced by the 2013 Plan and no further awards may be made pursuant to the 2010 Plan.
The 2013 Plan was effective May 22, 2013 and expires on May 22, 2023, the tenth anniversary of the effective date. The maximum number of shares of common stock of the Company that may be optioned or awarded under this plan is 2,639,000 shares. Awards under this plan may be made to any person selected by the Compensation Committee.
The following table summarizes the components and classification of stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

The tax benefit related to stock-based compensation expense arising from restricted stock awards and non-qualified stock options was $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $0.9 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Stock Options
Under the 2010 Plan and 2013 Plan, the exercise price for common stock must equal at least 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the day an option is granted. The exercise price under an incentive stock option granted to a person owning stock representing more than 10% of the common stock must equal at least 110% of the fair market value at the date of grant, and such option is not exercisable after five years from the date the incentive stock option was granted. The Board of Directors may, at its discretion, provide that an option not be exercised in whole or in part for any period or periods of time as specified in the option agreements. No option may be exercised after the expiration of ten years from the date it is granted. No stock options were granted under these plans during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 264,000 options were granted to employees. These options vest over service periods of 2 years. The fair value of each option is estimated as of the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. This model requires the input of subjective assumptions that will usually have a significant impact on the fair value estimate. The dividend yield assumption is consistent with management expectations of dividend distributions based upon the Company’s business plan at the date of grant. The risk-free interest rate was developed using the U.S. Treasury yield curve for a period equal to the expected life of the options on the grant date. The expected option life for the current period grants was estimated using the vesting period, the term of the option and estimates of future exercise behavior patterns. The volatility was estimated using a peer group assessment for periods approximating the expected option life. Appropriate weight is attributed to financial theory, according to which the volatility of an institution’s equity should be related to the volatility of its assets and the entity’s financial leverage.

ASC 718 requires the recognition of stock-based compensation for the number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, stock based compensation expense was recorded based upon assumptions that the Company would experience no forfeitures. This assumption of forfeitures will be reassessed in subsequent periods based on historical forfeiture rates and may change based on new facts and circumstances. Any changes in assumptions will be accounted for prospectively in the period of change.
A summary of the stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

Restricted Stock
Restricted stock provides the grantee with voting, dividend and anti-dilution rights equivalent to common shareholders, but is restricted from transfer until vested, at which time all restrictions are removed. The terms of the restricted stock awards granted to employees provide for vesting upon the achievement of stock price goals as follows: (1) one-third at $25.00 per share; (2) one-third at $28.00 per share; and (3) one-third at $32.00 per share. Achievement of stock price goals is generally defined as the average closing price of the shares for any consecutive 30-day trading period exceeding the applicable price target. The value of the restricted stock is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the implied service periods. No restricted stock awards were granted under the 2013 Plan during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
On May 21, 2013, 4,000 restricted stock awards were granted under the 2010 Plan. The fair value of the restricted stock was estimated to be equal to the closing stock price on the grant date.
On April 2, 2014, 405,133 restricted stock awards vested upon achievement of the $25.00 stock price goal. The Company recognized $1.7 million in excess tax benefits related to the vesting of such awards.The following table summarizes unvested restricted stock activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013:

The Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate method in computing its interim tax provision. This effective tax rate is based on forecasted annual pre-tax income, permanent tax differences and statutory tax rates. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the effective income tax rates were 38%. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the effective income tax rates were 44% and 43%, respectively. The higher prior year effective income tax rates were mainly due to the impact of a $1.5 million charge to income tax expense as a result of changes in certain statutory rates that were enacted into law during the three months ended September 30, 2013.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax of the states of Florida, New York, South and North Carolina and Tennessee. The net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were $139.4 million and $166.8 million, respectively. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is required when it is considered more likely than not that all or part of the benefit related to such assets will not be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considered both positive and negative evidence in concluding that no valuation allowance was necessary at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts recorded for uncertain tax positions.

13. Fair Value
FASB guidance on fair value measurements defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires fair value disclosures for certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis.
This guidance defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
This guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements to maximize the use of observable inputs, that is, inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.




38

Capital Bank Financial Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Level 1:
Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity can access as of the measurement date.
Level 2:
Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3:
Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
Cash & cash equivalents
For cash & cash equivalents, the carrying value is primarily utilized as a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Derivative financial instruments
Fair values for forward loan sales agreements are based upon the amounts required to settle the contracts. Fair values for commitments to originate loans held for sale are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. Fair values for fixed-rate commitments also consider the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates.
Valuation of Investment Securities
The fair values of available-for-sale, held-to-maturity and trading securities are determined by: 1) obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges when available (Level 1 inputs); 2) matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the financial markets to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs); and 3) for certain other debt securities that are not actively traded, custom discounted cash flow modeling (Level 3 inputs).
As of September 30, 2014, Capital Bank held industrial revenue bonds which are floating rate issues. Since there is no active secondary market for the trading of the bonds, the Company has developed a model to estimate fair value. This model determines an appropriate discount rate for the bonds based on current market rates for liquid corporate bonds with an equivalent credit rating plus an estimated illiquidity factor, and calculates the present value of expected future cash flows using this discount rate.
Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. The fair values of mortgage loans held for sale are based on commitments on hand from investors within the secondary market for loans with similar characteristics. As such, the fair value adjustment for mortgage loans held for sale is classified as nonrecurring Level 2.
Valuation of Impaired Loans and Other Real Estate Owned
The fair value of collateral dependent impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses and other real estate owned is generally based on recent real estate appraisals and other available observable market information. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach.
The Company generally uses independent external appraisers in this process who routinely make adjustments 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. The Company’s policy is to update appraisals, at a minimum, annually for classified assets, which include collateral dependent loans and OREO. We consider appraisals dated within the past 12 months to be current and do not typically make adjustments to such appraisals. In the Company’s process for reviewing third-party prepared appraisals, any differences of opinion on values, assumptions or adjustments to comparable sales data are typically reconciled directly with the independent appraiser prior to acceptance of the final appraisal.

Sensitivity to Changes in Significant Unobservable Inputs
As discussed above, as of September 30, 2014, the Company owns industrial revenue bonds, which require recurring fair value estimates categorized within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of these securities are incorporated in the discounted cash flow modeling valuation. Rates utilized in the modeling of these securities are estimated based upon a variety of factors including the market yields of other non-investment grade corporate debt. Significant changes in any inputs in isolation would result in significantly different fair value estimates.

Capital Bank Financial Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)



The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:
Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, receivable from FDIC, derivatives, noncontractual demand deposits and certain short-term borrowings. As it is not practicable to determine the fair value of Federal Reserve, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, FDIC indemnification asset and correspondent bank’s stocks due to restrictions placed on transferability, the estimated fair value is equal to their carrying amount. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes and, if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security and information about the issuer including estimates of discounted cash flows when necessary. For fixed rate loans or contractual deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life, adjusted for the allowance for loan losses. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or underlying collateral values. Fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance sheet items that include commitments to extend credit to fund commercial, consumer, real estate construction and real estate-mortgage loans and to fund standby letters of credit is considered nominal.
14. Derivative Instruments
The Company has derivative financial instruments acquired in its purchase of SCMF, primarily in the form of interest rate swaps. The forward loan sales contracts are derived from loans held for sale or in the Company’s pipeline. These transactions involve both credit and market risk.
The Company’s derivative instrument contracts which are recorded in other assets and other liabilities on the Company’s balance sheets consist of the following:

The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. None of the derivatives held are designated as hedging instruments or otherwise qualify for hedge accounting treatment and all changes in fair value are recognized in non-interest income or non-interest expense during the period of change.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded $29 thousand and $1.8 million, respectively, in non-interest income, and $14 thousand and $49 thousand, respectively, in non-interest expense as a result of changes in fair value of derivatives. The interest rate swaps associated with certificates of deposit were terminated in September 2014, and, as a result, the Company recognized a $0.3 million loss in non-interest expense.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the company recorded $(0.3) million and $(0.7) million in non-interest income, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.4 million in non-interest expense, respectively, as a result of changes in fair value of derivatives.
The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to these agreements. The Company controls the credit risk of its financial contracts through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures and agreements that specify collateral levels to be maintained by the Company and the counterparties. These collateral levels are based on the credit rating of the counterparties.
The primary objective for each of these contracts is to minimize risk. Interest rate risk being the primary risk for the interest rate swaps and forward loan sales contracts.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain of the matters discussed under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, may involve known and unknown risk, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results described in such forward-looking statements. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “predicts,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “estimate,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “intends” and similar words or phrases. Actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation: market and economic conditions, the management of our growth, the risks associated with Capital Bank, N.A.’s loan portfolio and real estate holdings, local economic conditions affecting retail and commercial real estate, the Company’s geographic concentration in the southeastern region of the United States, restrictions imposed by Capital Bank, N.A’s loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, the assumptions and judgments required by loss share accounting and the acquisition method of accounting, competition within the industry, dependence on key personnel, government legislation and regulation, the risks associated with identification, completion and integration of any future acquisitions, and risks related to Capital Bank, N.A.’s technology and information systems. Additional factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward looking statements, include but are not limited to, the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Our financial information is prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Application of these principles requires management to make complex and subjective estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the following discussion and in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. For more information on our accounting policies and estimates, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
The following discussion addresses the factors that have affected the financial condition and results of operations of the Company as reflected in the unaudited consolidated statement of condition as of September 30, 2014, and statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. Except as noted in tables or otherwise, dollar amounts in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are in millions.
The following discussion pertains to our historical results, which includes the operations of First National Bank of the South, Metro Bank, Turnberry Bank (collectively, the “Failed Banks”), TIB Financial, Capital Bank Corp., Green Bankshares and Southern Community Financial subsequent to our acquisition of each such entity. Throughout this discussion we collectively refer to the above acquisitions as the “acquisitions” and we refer to loans originated or purchased by Capital Bank, N.A. as “new loans” or “originated loans”.

Application of these principles requires management to make complex and subjective estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the following discussion and in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. For a full description of income statement metrics and balance sheet drivers used to evaluate our business such as, Net Interest Income, Provision for Loan Losses, Non-Interest Income, Non-Interest Expense, Net Income, Loan Growth, Asset Quality, Deposit Growth, Capital and Liquidity, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
Quarterly Summary
For the three months ended September 30, 2014, we had net income of $13.2 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, an increase of 8% and 23% over the second quarter and prior year third quarter, respectively. Results include the following non-core items: $0.3 million of contingent value right (“CVR”) expense; $0.2 million of net gains on sales of investment securities; and $0.1 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with original founders awards.
Operating and financial highlights for the quarter include the following:
Loan portfolio grew sequentially at an 9% annualized rate;
New loans of $445.1 million, up 53% year over year and 35% year to date;
Nonperforming loans declined sequentially at a 75% annualized rate;
Legacy credit expenses declined 55% year over year;
Efficiency and core efficiency ratios declined to 72.0% and 71.6%, respectively;

Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the largest component of our income and is affected by the interest rate environment and the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Our interest-earning assets include loans, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and investment securities. Our interest-bearing liabilities include deposits, subordinated debentures, repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings.
Three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to three months ended June 30, 2014
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $0.6 million, or 0.9%, to $61.4 million from $60.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The sequential increase was due to increased loan balances and investment securities yields. The net interest margin declined 12 basis points to 4.14% from 4.26% and the net interest spread declined to 4.01% from 4.12%. Loan yields declined to 5.17% from 5.40% mainly due to the lower yield on new loans as compared to the yields of our legacy portfolio. New loans were $445.1 million with an average yield of 3.59%, up from 3.50% in the second quarter of 2014. The increase in investment securities yields was mainly due to the repositioning of a portion of our portfolio into agency-backed commercial mortgage-backed securities as part of our strategy to manage the bank’s overall interest rate risk position. Deposits remained consistent at $5.2 billion. The cost of core deposits remained flat at 0.14% and the cost of funds remained flat at 0.45%.

Interest income and rates include the effects of a tax equivalent adjustment using applicable statutory tax rates in adjusting tax-exempt interest on tax-exempt investment securities and loans to a fully taxable basis. Average loan volumes include non-performing assets which results in the impact of the non-accrual of interest being reflected in the change in average rate.

For each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided with respect to changes due to average volumes and changes due to rates, with the changes in both volumes and rates allocated to these two categories based on the proportionate absolute changes in each category.
Three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to three months ended September 30, 2013
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 declined by $4.0 million, or 6.1%, to $61.4 million from $65.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decline was mainly due to lower yields on new loans as compared to the yields of our legacy portfolio, partially offset by an increase in loan balances and yields on investment securities, and declines in time deposits and long-term borrowings. The net interest margin declined 31 basis points to 4.14% from 4.45% and the net interest spread declined to 4.01% from 4.32%. Loan yields declined to 5.17% from 5.93% mainly due to lower yields on new loans replacing higher yield legacy loans. For the trailing twelve months, new loans were $1.8 billion with an average yield of 3.66%. The cost of core deposits remained flat at 0.14%. The cost of funds declined to 0.45% from 0.51% for the prior year third quarter due to the continued planned shrinkage of high-cost legacy time deposits and the reduction in high coupon trust preferred debt prepaid in in the prior year. Average time deposit balances declined $287.7 million, or 17%, and their average rates declined five basis points.

Nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2013
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 declined by $13.1 million, or 6.6%, to $184.7 million from $197.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decline was mainly due to lower yields on new loans as compared to the yields of our legacy portfolio, partially offset by a decline in high-cost legacy time deposits, higher investment securities yields, and the prepayment of high coupon trust preferred securities during 2013. The net interest margin declined eleven basis points to 4.26% from 4.37% and the net interest spread declined to 4.14% from 4.23%. Loan yields declined to 5.41% from 6.04%, mainly due to our new loan portfolio replacing higher yield legacy loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, new loans were $1.1 billion with an average yield of 3.65% as compared to new loans of $844.4 million with an average yield of 4.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Investment securities yields increased due to the repositioning of our investment portfolio in higher yield investment securities. The cost of core deposits remained flat at 0.14%. The cost of funds declined to 0.45% from 0.56% at September 30, 2013, as a result of continued planned shrinkage of high-cost legacy time deposits and the $42.5 million prepayment of trust preferred securities in 2013. Average time deposit balances declined $450.8 million, or 25%, and their average rates declined thirteen basis points.

Interest income and rates include the effects of a tax equivalent adjustment using applicable statutory tax rates in adjusting tax-exempt interest on tax-exempt investment securities and loans to a fully taxable basis. Average loan volumes include non-performing assets which results in the impact of the non-accrual of interest being reflected in the change in average rate.
(2)
Includes Federal Reserve Bank, Federal Home Loan Bank and Bankers Bank stock.
(3)
For each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided with respect to changes due to average volumes and changes due to rates, with the changes in both volumes and rates allocated to these two categories based on the proportionate absolute changes in each category.

Three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to three months ended September 30, 2013.
The provision (reversal) for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $(1.3) million compared to a provision of $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The reversal of impairment was mainly due to improvements in our expectations of future cash flows on PCI loans resulting from higher than anticipated payoffs across all market areas and product types. Improvement in cash flows resulted in a $2.4 million and a $1.8 million reversal of impairment for covered and non-covered loans, respectively. In contrast, in the prior year, estimation of cash flows resulted in $0.2 million reversal of impairment in covered loans and $0.1 million additional impairment for non-covered loans, respectively.

51


Nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2013.
The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $48 thousand compared to $10.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The improvement was mainly due to the reversal of provision associated with PCI loans and a lower level of net charge offs on new loans. The reversal of impairment associated with PCI loans was mainly due to improvements in our expectations of future cash flows resulting from higher than anticipated payoffs across all market areas and product types. Improvement in cash flows for non-covered and covered loans resulted in a $5.4 million and $2.2 million reversals of impairment, respectively. In contrast, in the prior year, improvement in cash flows for covered loans resulted in a $3.4 million reversal of impairment, partially offset by $2.7 million in increased impairment of non-covered loans. For our new loan portfolio, a $7.8 million charge off was recorded during the nine months of the prior year related to a single commercial credit relationship associated with suspected fraud. Charge offs declined to $4.6 million from $11.7 million in the prior year.

Covered loan pools are comprised of loans acquired in acquisition of the Failed Banks with loans types guaranteed by the FDIC under loss sharing agreements. Accordingly, certain pools classified as covered may include individual loans which are not, or are no longer covered.
(2)
Loan balance represents the recorded investment of all loans in the covered and non-covered pools, respectively. Not all covered loans are classified as PCI.

Non-interest Income
Three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to three months ended September 30, 2013
Non-interest income declined $5.3 million to $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from $15.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decline was mainly due to lower credit loss expectations in our legacy loan portfolios, which resulted in an increase of $3.4 million in FDIC indemnification asset amortization, and the absence of a $1.5 million gain recorded in the prior year upon exchange of two small investment company partnership interests and a $0.9 million insurance recovery. Contributing to the decline was a $0.5 million, or 8%, decline in service charges on deposit accounts as a result of a 9% decline in average balances of customer overdrafts. Partially offsetting this decline was an increase of $0.6 million in gains on sales of investment securities, and an increase of $0.4 million in investment advisory and trust fees due to increased assets under management and advisory commissions.
Nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2013
Non-interest income declined $6.5 million to $33.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $39.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decline was mainly due to lower credit loss expectations in our legacy loan portfolios, which resulted in a $4.3 million increase in FDIC indemnification asset amortization, and a $2.0 million decline in service charges on deposit accounts, a result of a 16% decline in average balances on customer overdrafts. Contributing to the decline was a $1.2 million decline in mortgage fees, as residential mortgage loans sold declined to $111.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $145.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, in addition to the absence of the prior year $1.5 million gain and the $0.9 million insurance recovery discussed above. Partially offsetting this decline was an increase of $2.0 million in investment advisory and trust fees due to increased assets under management and advisory commissions, and an increase of $0.5 million in gains on sales of investment securities.

Non-interest Expense
Three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to three months ended September 30, 2013
Non-interest expense declined $7.8 million, or 13%, to $51.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from $59.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decline was mainly due to a $4.9 million decline in the OREO valuation expense, foreclosed asset and loan workout expense components of our legacy credit expenses, which is reflecting the continued resolution of special assets. Contributing to the decline was a $0.9 million decline in stock-based compensation expense mainly associated with original founders awards, and a $0.9 million decline in professional fees. Partially offsetting this decline was an increase of $1.1 million in CVR expense as a result of our most recent estimate of expected credit losses from our legacy portfolios, and the absence of $0.4 million of prior year gains on extinguishment of debt. The CVR liability is measured each quarter and is payable after the fifth anniversary of the consummation of the respective acquisition and the current amount of the liability represents the expected payout discounted at an estimated market discount rate from the payout date to the reporting date.
OREO sales during the three months resulted in $15.8 million in cash proceeds, including $0.2 million in gains, reducing our OREO balance by 6.2% from June 30, 2014.
Salaries and employee benefits remained relatively flat for the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2013.
Net occupancy expense declined $0.4 million as a result of our continued focus on consolidating facilities, partially offset by contractual increases in operating lease costs.
Other operating expense declined $1.8 million due to a decline in operational charge-offs, amortization of intangibles, and insurance costs.
Nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2013
Non-interest expense declined $22.0 million, or 12%, to $157.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $180.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decline was mainly due to a $14.3 million decrease in the OREO valuation expense, foreclosed asset and loan workout expense components of our total legacy credit expenses, which is reflecting the continued resolution of special assets. Contributing to the decline was a $2.1 million decline in stock-based compensation expense mainly associated with original founders awards, a $1.8 million decline in professional fees, and a $1.2 million decline in CVR expense as a result of our most recent estimate of expected credit losses from our legacy portfolios.

53


OREO sales during the nine months resulted in $60.2 million in cash proceeds, including $4.1 million in gains, reducing our OREO balance by 30% from December 31, 2013.
Salaries and employee benefits increased $3.4 million, mainly due to an increase in compensation as a result of higher incentive compensation and employee benefits due to increasing healthcare costs.
Net occupancy expense declined $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as a result of our continued focus on consolidating facilities, partially offset by contractual increases in operating lease costs.
Other operating expense declined $4.5 million mainly due to a decline in operational charge-offs, amortization of intangibles, and insurance costs.

Our efficiency ratios for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 72.03% and 73.47%, respectively. Our core efficiency ratios for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 71.62% and 73.51%, respectively. Our efficiency ratios for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 72.46% and 75.76%, respectively. Our core efficiency ratios for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 71.39% and 73.05%, respectively.
The core efficiency ratio, which equals core non-interest expense divided by core net revenues (net interest income plus core non-interest income), for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

The core efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure which we believe provides analysts and investors with information useful in understanding our business and evaluating our operating efficiency. We monitor the core efficiency ratio to evaluate and control operating costs. The core efficiency ratio is also a measure utilized by our Board of Directors in measuring management’s performance in controlling operating costs in comparison to peers. This non-GAAP measure has inherent limitations and is not required to be uniformly applied. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. This non-GAAP measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies and should not be viewed as a substitute for non-interest expense.

Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $8.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The effective income tax rates were 38% and 44% for these periods, respectively. The provision for income taxes was $22.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and $20.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The effective income tax rates were 38% and 43% for these periods, respectively. The higher prior year effective income tax rates were mainly due to the impact of a $1.5 million charge to income tax expense as a result of changes in certain statutory rates that were enacted into law during the three months ended September 30, 2013.
At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no amounts recorded for uncertain tax positions and no unrecognized tax benefits. We do not expect to identify any unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months.

Financial Condition
Our assets totaled $6.7 billion at September 30, 2014 and $6.6 billion at December 31, 2013. Total loans increased $271.7 million to $4.8 billion at September 30, 2014 compared to $4.6 billion at December 31, 2013. The increase in total loans was due to $1.1 billion of new loans, partially offset by $227.8 million in resolutions of problem loans and $639.8 million in net principal repayments. Investment securities declined by $119.0 million mainly due to principal cash flows retained and redeployed to fund loan growth. Total deposits were $5.2 billion at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Time deposits declined by $17.4 million as a result of continued planned shrinkage in high-cost legacy time deposits, which declined by $222.7 million, partially offset by an increase in lower cost brokered time deposits of $205.4 million. The net increase in demand deposit and non-interest bearing accounts of $70.5 million increased our core deposits to 72.4% of total deposits at September 30, 2014 compared to 72.1% at December 31, 2013. Borrowed funds, consisting of FHLB advances, short-term borrowings, notes payable and subordinated debentures, totaled $389.4 million and $259.7 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The increase in borrowed funds was mainly due to $129.9 million of new short-term FHLB advances.

55


Shareholders’ equity was $1.1 billion at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. During 2013 and 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized stock repurchase plans of up to $200.0 million. Stock repurchases may be made from time to time, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The approved stock repurchase programs do not obligate the Company to repurchase any particular amount of shares, and the programs may be extended, modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.
During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company repurchased $19.5 million, or 819,773 common shares at an average price of $23.78 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company repurchased $85.4 million, or 3,586,771 common shares at an average price of $23.80 per share. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has repurchased a total of $155.3 million or 7,348,088 common shares at an average price of $21.14 per share, and had $44.7 million of remaining availability for future share repurchases.

Loans
Our loan portfolio is our primary earning asset. Our strategy is to grow the loan portfolio by originating commercial and consumer loans that we believe to be of high quality, that comply with our conservative credit policies and that produce revenues consistent with our financial objectives. Additionally, we have worked to reduce excessive concentrations in commercial real estate loans, which were the predominant portion of the acquisitions’ legacy portfolios, in order to achieve a more diversified portfolio mix.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, our loan portfolio increased by $271.7 million due to $1.1 billion of new loans, partially offset by $227.8 million in resolutions of problem loans and $639.8 million in net principal repayments. New and acquired non-impaired loans now represent 69% of our total loan portfolio as compared to 59% at December 31, 2013. The composition of new loan production is indicative of our business strategy of emphasizing commercial and industrial and consumer loans. As illustrated in the table below, commercial loans and consumer and other loans represented approximately 43.4% and 36.2%, respectively, of new loan production for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. We expect that this production will be more balanced going forward, as we have substantially reduced our concentration in commercial real estate loans.

We underwrite commercial real estate loans based on the value of the collateral, the ratio of debt service to property income and the creditworthiness of tenants. Due to the inherent risk of commercial real estate lending, we underwrite loans selectively. Accordingly, we have reduced the concentration in our portfolio over time, which had characterized our acquired loan portfolios.
Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennessee accounted for 33.4%, 11.8%, 29.6% and 25.2% of our new loans, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Tennessee accounted for 22.6%, 16.7%, 45.1% and 15.6% of our new loans, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Of the new loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, $101.2 million related to purchased high quality residential loans.

Asset Quality
Consistent with our strategy of operating with a sound risk profile, we have focused on originating loans we believe to be of high quality, disposing of non-performing assets as rapidly as possible, and reducing the size of our legacy commercial real estate loan portfolio. To achieve these objectives, we underwrite new loans and manage existing loans in accordance with our underwriting standards under the direction of our Chief Credit Officer. Additionally, we have assigned senior credit officers to oversee the Florida, Tennessee and Carolinas markets, and we have established a special assets division to dispose of legacy problem loans and OREO.
We refer to our loans covered under loss sharing agreements with the FDIC as “covered loans.” These are the legacy loans of Metro Bank, Turnberry Bank, and First National Bank of the South where the FDIC reimburses us for 80% of net charge-offs and OREO losses over a five-year period for commercial loans and a ten-year period for residential loans. We refer to all other loans as “non-covered loans.” These are new loans we originate or purchase, loans acquired through the acquisitions of Capital Bank, TIB Bank, Green Bankshares and Southern Community Financial and certain loans of the Failed Banks that we acquired, which are not covered by any loss sharing agreement.

Covered Loans
As of September 30, 2014, covered loans were $220.8 million, representing 4.6% of our loan portfolio of which 0.6% were past due 30-89 days, 10.6% were greater than 90 days past due and still accruing/accreting and 0.4% were nonaccrual. As of December 31, 2013, covered loans were $285.4 million, representing 6.3% of our loan portfolio of which 0.3% were past due 30-89 days, 14.2% were greater than 90 days past due and still accruing/accreting and 0.5% were nonaccrual. The status of these loans reflects the severity of the real estate downturn and the excessive concentrations in commercial real estate and poor quality underwriting that characterized the banks we acquired from the FDIC under their prior business models. We have recorded these loans at estimated fair value reflecting expected lifetime losses estimated as of their acquisition date. Actual claims for reimbursement filed with the FDIC for incurred losses on covered loans but not yet paid were $3.5 million at September 30, 2014.
We manage credit risk associated with loans covered under loss sharing agreements in the same manner as credit risk associated with non-covered loans. This includes following consistent policies and procedures relating to the process of working with borrowers in efforts to resolve problem loans resulting in the lowest losses possible and collection including foreclosure, repossession and the ultimate liquidation of any applicable underlying collateral. The loss sharing agreements also contain certain restrictions and conditions which, among other things, provide that certain credit risk management strategies such as loan sales, under certain conditions, could be prohibited under the agreements and may lead to the termination of coverage of any applicable losses on the related loans. Accordingly, actions taken by management in the process of prudently managing credit risk and borrower relationships, including, but not limited to, the renewal of covered loans for periods extending beyond the expiration of the applicable loss sharing agreement, the extension of additional credit or the making of certain modifications of loan terms, can lead to the termination of coverage under the loss sharing agreements for these particular loans.
Collection of loss claims under the loss sharing agreements requires extensive and specific recordkeeping and incremental quarterly reporting to the FDIC on the status of covered loans. The loss claims filed and the related reporting on covered loans to the FDIC are subject to review and approval by the FDIC and various subcontractors utilized by the FDIC. The requirements for such reporting and interpretations thereof are occasionally revised by the FDIC and its subcontractors. Such changes along with our ability to comply with the requirements and revisions require interpretation and can lead to delays in the collection of claims on losses incurred. Claims filed by us for losses realized through September 30, 2014, totaling $128.3 million have been collected from the FDIC. Additionally, the loss sharing agreements provide for regular examination of compliance with loss sharing agreements including reviews of relevant policies and procedures and detailed audits of claims filed. Noncompliance with the provisions of the loss sharing agreements can lead to termination of the agreements.
Non-Covered Loans
As of September 30, 2014, non-covered loans were $4.6 billion, representing 95.4% of our loan portfolio, of which 0.3% were past due 30-89 days, 3.0% were greater than 90 days past due and still accruing/accreting and 0.2% were nonaccrual. As of December 31, 2013, non-covered loans were $4.3 billion, representing 93.7% of our loan portfolio, of which 0.5% were past due 30-89 days, 5.0% were greater than 90 days past due and still accruing/accreting and 0.2% were nonaccrual.
As a large percentage of the non-covered loans are acquired impaired loans, these loans have also been affected by the real estate downturn and excessive commercial real estate concentrations. However, the credit quality of these loans is generally higher than that of the covered loans. In connection with the acquisitions, we applied acquisition accounting adjustments to the non-covered loans not originated by us to reflect estimates at the time of acquisition of the expected lifetime losses of such loans.

Of the loans past due greater than 90 days and still in accruing/accreting status as of September 30, 2014, $23.4 million (or approximately 14.5%) were loans covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. Of the loans past due greater than 90 days and still in accruing/accreting status as of December 31, 2013, $40.4 million (or approximately 15.9%) were loans covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. All of the covered and non-covered loans classified as delinquent 90 days or more accruing/accreting are entirely comprised of components of PCI loan pools. There were no non-PCI loans included in this category at the end of each period presented.
Total non-performing loans as of September 30, 2014 declined by $93.3 million, or 35%, to $172.3 million as compared to $265.6 million at December 31, 2013. The change in non-performing loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was attributable to $94.1 million in resolutions and $30.4 million in transfers to other real estate owned through foreclosures or receipt of deeds in lieu of foreclosures. Partially offsetting these decreases were $31.2 million of loans that became non-performing.



During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, of the loans we foreclosed, or received deeds in lieu of foreclosure, approximately 45.3% consisted of commercial real estate loans and approximately 10.6% were associated with the covered loans in South Carolina.

The customer-owed principal balances and carrying amounts as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are set forth in the tables below:

Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses
At September 30, 2014, the allowance for loan losses was $52.3 million, of which $30.2 million was associated with PCI loans and $22.1 million related to new loans or acquired non-PCI loans. At September 30, 2014, the allowance for loan losses represents 1.08% of our total $4.8 billion loan portfolio. At December 31, 2013, the allowance for loan losses was $56.9 million of which $19.0 million related to new loans or acquired non-PCI loans, and $37.9 million was associated with PCI loans. At December 31, 2013, the allowance for loan losses represented 1.25% of our total $4.6 billion loan portfolio.
For non PCI loans, the allowance for loan losses reflects an allowance for probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. Our formalized process for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the resultant need, if any, for periodic provisions to the allowance charged to income, includes both individual loan analysis and loan pool analysis. Individual loan analysis are periodically performed on loan relationships of a significant size, or when otherwise deemed necessary, and are performed primarily on commercial real estate and other commercial loans. The result is that commercial real estate loans and commercial loans are divided into the following risk categories: Pass, Special Mention, Substandard and Loss. The allowance consists of specific and general components. When appropriate, a specific reserve will be established for individual loans based upon the risk classifications and the estimated potential for loss. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired.
Home equity loans, indirect auto loans, residential loans and consumer loans generally are not analyzed individually or separately identified for impairment disclosures. These loans are grouped into pools and assigned risk categories based on their current payment status and management’s assessment of risk inherent in the various types of loans. The allocations are based on the same factors mentioned above. However, should such loans exceeding certain size thresholds exhibit signs of impairment; they are individually evaluated for impairment.
For PCI loans, the allowance for loan losses is a measure of impairment based upon our most recent estimates of expected cash flows. Our estimation of expected cash flows, which is used to determine the need for provisions to or reversals of the allowance every reporting period, is determined by assigning probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”) assumptions, amongst other assumptions such as prepayment speeds and recovery or liquidation timing. For commercial real estate and other commercial loans, we generally assign PD assumptions through the mapping of the following loan level risk ratings: Pass, Watch, Sub-Performing and Non-Performing. For home equity loans, residential loans, and consumer loans, PD is determined by mapping payment performance and delinquency status to market based default assumptions. Estimated loan to value ratios, determined using current appraisals and/or real estate indices, are used to derive loss given default assumptions for real estate collateralized loans.
Senior management and our Board of Directors review this calculation and the underlying assumptions on a routine basis not less frequently than quarterly.
The provision for loan losses is a charge to income in the current period to establish or replenish the allowance and maintain it at a level that management has determined to be adequate to absorb estimated incurred losses in the loan portfolio for new loans. A provision for loan losses is also required for any unfavorable changes in expected cash flows related to pools of purchased impaired loans. The provision for loan losses and expectations of cash flows may be impacted by many factors, including changes in the value of real estate collateralizing loans, net charge-offs and credit losses incurred, changes in loans outstanding, changes in impaired loans, historical loss rates and the mix of loan types.
As the majority of our acquired loans are considered PCI loans, our provision for loan losses in future periods for acquired loans will be most significantly influenced in the short term by the differences between the actual credit losses resulting from the resolution of problem loans and the estimated credit losses used in determining the estimated fair values of purchased impaired loans as of their acquisition dates. For new loans, the provision for loan losses will be affected by the loss potential of impaired loans and trends in the delinquency of loans, non-performing loans and net charge offs, which cannot be reasonably predicted. Refer to Provision for loan losses section for further discussion.
Management continuously monitors and actively manages the credit quality of the entire loan portfolio and will continue to recognize the provision required to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level.

No portion of the allowance allocated to non-PCI loans is in any way restricted to any individual loan or group of new loans or non-PCI loans, and the entirety of such allowance is available to absorb probable incurred credit losses from any and all such loans. The following table represents management’s best estimate of the allocation of the allowance for loan losses for non-PCI loans to the various segments of the loan portfolio based on information available as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Criticized and Classified Loans
Loans with the following attributes are categorized as criticized and classified loans: (1) a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention; (2) inadequate protection by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged; or (3) weaknesses which make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The following table summarizes criticized and classified loans at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

 (1) PCI and non-PCI loans are included in the balances presented.
Total criticized and classified loans declined $171.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as a result of $30.4 million in transfers to other real estate owned and $209.6 million of pay downs, charge offs and upgrades. Loan downgrades of $68.8 million partially offset the decline.
Impaired Loans
Non-performing loans and impaired loans are defined differently. Some loans may be included in both categories, whereas other loans may only be included in one category. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the loan contract. Generally, residential mortgages, commercial and commercial real estate loans exceeding certain size thresholds established by management are individually evaluated for impairment. Non-accrual loans and restructured loans where loan term concessions benefiting the borrowers have been made are generally designated as impaired.
Within the context of the accounting for impaired loans described in the preceding paragraph, other than the PCI loans described above, as of September 30, 2014, there were 22 loans individually evaluated for impairment and 11 deemed impaired with a related allowance for loan losses of $34 thousand. At December 31, 2013, there were 28 loans individually evaluated for impairment and 7 deemed impaired with a related allowance for loan losses of $0.5 million. The specific reserve at December 31, 2013 was primarily related to a commercial loan with a balance $1.8 million.
Due to the pool method of accounting for purchased credit impaired loans, non-performing PCI loans are reported as 90 days past due and still accruing/accreting. Going forward, additional acquired loans not classified as purchased credit impaired and new loans originated by us may become impaired and will be classified as such. Impaired loans also include loans which were not classified as non-accrual, but otherwise meet the criteria for classification as an impaired loan (i.e., loans for which the collection of all principal and interest amounts as specified in the original loan contract are not expected, or where management has substantial doubt that the collection will be as specified, but is still expected to occur in its entirety). In our evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, we consider (1) purchased credit impaired loans and loans classified as impaired, (2) our historical portfolio loss experience and trends and (3) certain other quantitative and qualitative factors.

Non-Performing Assets
Non-performing assets include accruing/accreting loans delinquent 90 days or more, non-accrual loans and investment securities, repossessed personal property and other real estate. Non-PCI loans and investments in debt securities are placed on non-accrual status when management has concerns relating to the ability to collect the principal and interest and generally when such assets are 90 days past due. Non-performing assets were as follows:

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, covered and non-covered loans classified as delinquent 90 days or more and accruing/accreting are entirely comprised of components of PCI loan pools. There were no non-PCI loans included in this category at the end of each period presented. In addition to the discussion in the previous section, please refer to Note 4. Loans in our consolidated financial statements for a description of the accounting for pooled PCI loans.
Total non-performing assets at September 30, 2014 declined by $133.2 million to $262.7 million compared to $395.9 million at December 31, 2013. The change in non-performing assets was mainly attributable to a decline in non-performing loans and other real estate owned of $93.3 million and $39.1 million, respectively. The decline in non-performing loans was due to $94.1 million in resolutions and $30.4 million in transfers to other real estate owned through foreclosures or receipt of deeds in lieu of foreclosures, offset by $31.2 million of loans that became non-performing. The decline in other real estate owned was mainly due to sales of $60.2 million, partially offset by valuation adjustments and acquisitions as noted above.

Investment Securities
Investment securities represent a significant portion of our assets. We invest in a variety of securities including obligations of U.S. government agencies, U.S. government-sponsored entities, including mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states or political subdivisions, privately issued mortgage-backed securities, bank eligible corporate obligations, mutual funds and limited types of equity securities.
Our investment activities are governed internally by a written, board-approved policy. The investment policy is carried out by our Treasury department. Investment strategies are reviewed by the Risk Committee of the Board based on the interest rate environment, balance sheet mix, actual and anticipated loan demand, funding opportunities and our overall interest rate sensitivity. In general, the investment portfolio is managed in a manner appropriate to the attainment of the following goals: (1) to provide a margin of liquid assets sufficient to meet unanticipated deposit and loan fluctuations and overall funds management objectives; (2) to provide eligible securities to secure public funds and other borrowings; and (3) to manage interest rate risk and earn the maximum return on funds invested that is commensurate with meeting our first two goals.
Our investment securities consisted primarily of U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, which expose us to a lower degree of credit and liquidity risk. The following tables set forth our investment securities as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Contractual maturities of investment securities at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or repay obligations without call or prepayment penalties. Other securities include mortgage-backed securities and marketable equity securities which are not due at a single maturity date.

We regularly review each investment security for impairment based on criteria that include the extent to which cost exceeds the estimated fair value, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer(s) and our ability and intention with regard to holding the security to maturity. Future declines in the fair value of securities may result in impairment charges which may be material to our financial condition and results of operations. More specifically, our impairment analysis is based on the following: (1) whether it is “more likely than not” we would have to sell a security prior to recovery of the amortized cost; (2) whether we intend to sell the security; and (3) whether or not we expect to recover our recorded investment on an amortized cost basis based on credit characteristics of the investment. If, based upon our analysis, any of those conditions exist for a given security; we would generally be required to record an impairment charge in the amount of the difference between the carrying amounts and estimated fair value of such security. Based on our analysis, there were no investment securities considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
At December 31, 2013, we owned a collateralized debt obligation (“CDO”) collateralized by trust preferred securities issued primarily by banks and several insurance companies. We sold our investment in the CDO on January 7, 2014. Proceeds from the sale were $0.8 million and gross gains were $0.3 million.

Deposits
Our strategy is to fund asset growth primarily with low-cost customer deposits in order to maintain a stable liquidity profile and net interest margin.
As of September 30, 2014, our core deposits, which we define as demand deposits, savings and money market accounts, increased by $7.8 million as compared to December 31, 2013. Net new checking account growth contributed to the increase in core deposits during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, as we are building our deposit base around service-oriented customer relationships. The average contractual rate on core deposits remained flat at 0.14%.
Time deposit balances declined by $17.4 million as compared to December 31, 2013. At September 30, 2014, our wholesale time deposits increased by $205.4 million as compared to December 31, 2013, providing a lower cost source of funding as compared with higher rate legacy time deposits. The $222.7 million net decrease in retail certificates of deposit accounts was primarily a result of continued planned shrinkage in these high-cost legacy time deposits. The average contractual rate on time deposits decreased to 1.05% from 1.18% at December 31, 2013.
The following table sets forth the balances and average contractual rates payable to customers on our deposits, segmented by account type as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Capital Resources and Liquidity
Capital Resources
In order to maintain a conservative risk profile, we operate with a prudent cushion of capital in relation to regulatory requirements and to the risk of our assets and business model. For planning purposes, we expect to operate with a minimum capital target equal to an 8% leverage ratio (defined as Tier 1 capital equal to 8% of average tangible assets), which would be in excess of regulatory standards for “well-capitalized” banks. We believe the 8% target is appropriate for our business model because of our conservative loan underwriting policies, investment portfolio composition, funding strategy, interest rate risk management limits and liquidity risk profile and because of the experience of our senior management team and Board of Directors.
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had 13.93% and 14.82% tangible common equity ratios, respectively. We calculate tangible common equity, tangible assets and the tangible common equity ratio, which are non-GAAP measures, because we believe they are useful for both investors and management as these are measures commonly used by financial institutions, regulators and investors to measure the capital adequacy of financial institutions. The tangible common equity ratio is calculated as tangible common shareholders’ equity divided by tangible assets. Tangible common equity is calculated as total shareholders’ equity less preferred stock and less goodwill and other intangible assets, net, and tangible assets are total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets, net. We believe these measures facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company’s capital over time and in comparison to its competitors.
These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations and are not required to be uniformly applied. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies and should not be viewed as a substitute for shareholders’ equity or total assets. The following table provides reconciliations of tangible common equity and tangible common equity ratio to GAAP total common shareholders’ equity and tangible assets to GAAP total assets:

The Company operates with a significant level of excess capital above regulatory requirements (see the table below for the historical capital ratios as well as minimum and well capitalized ratio requirements).

72


As of September 30, 2014, we had a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 14.4%, which provides us with $282.1 million in excess capital relative to the 10% Tier 1 leverage ratio required under our OCC Operating Agreement and $410.3 million in excess capital relative to our longer-term target of 8%.
As of September 30, 2014, Capital Bank, N.A. had a 13.4% Tier 1 leverage ratio, an 17.1% Tier 1 risk-based ratio and an 18.2% total risk-based capital ratio.
As of December 31, 2013, we had a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 14.9%, which provides us with $314.3 million in excess capital relative to the 10% Tier 1 leverage ratio required under the OCC Operating Agreement and $441.4 million in excess capital relative to our longer-term target of 8%.
As of December 31, 2013, Capital Bank, N.A. had a 13.4% Tier 1 leverage ratio, an 17.7% Tier 1 risk-based ratio and an 18.9% total risk-based capital ratio.
At present, the OCC Operating Agreement requires Capital Bank, N.A. to maintain total capital equal to at least 12% of risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 capital equal to at least 11% of risk-weighted assets and a minimum leverage ratio of 10% (Tier 1 Capital ratio). We expect to operate under this capital standard until we demonstrate that we have stabilized our acquired operations, improved our profitability and reduced legacy problem assets.
The minimum ratios along with the actual ratios for us and Capital Bank, N.A. as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are presented in the following tables.

In July 2013, the U.S. banking regulators adopted a final rule which implements the Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, and certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The final rule establishes an integrated regulatory capital framework and introduces the “Standardized Approach” for risk weighted assets, which will replace the Basel I risk-based guidance for determining risk-weighted assets as of January 1, 2015 (the date we expect to become subject to the new rules). We do not believe adoption of the final rules and relevant provisions will have a significant impact on our operations.
Liquidity
Liquidity involves our ability to raise funds to support asset growth or reduce assets to meet deposit withdrawals and other borrowing needs, to maintain reserve requirements and to otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. To mitigate liquidity risk, our strategy is to fund asset growth primarily with low-cost customer deposits. We also operate under a liquidity policy and contingent liquidity plan that requires us to monitor indicators of potential liquidity risk, utilize cash flow projection models to forecast liquidity needs, identify alternative back-up sources of liquidity and maintain a predetermined cushion of cash and liquid securities at 15% of total assets.
Our liquidity needs are met primarily by our cash position, growth in core deposits and cash flow from our amortizing investment and loan portfolios (including scheduled payments, prepayments, and maturities from portfolios of loans and investment securities). Our ability to borrow funds from non-deposit sources provides additional flexibility in meeting our liquidity needs. Short-term borrowings include federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements and brokered deposits. We also utilize longer-term borrowings when management determines that the pricing and maturity options available through these sources create cost effective options for funding asset growth and satisfying capital needs. Our long-term borrowings include structured repurchase agreements and subordinated notes underlying our trust preferred securities.
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, cash and liquid securities totaled 17.9%, and 20.0% of assets, respectively providing us with $193.7 million and $328.7 million, respectively, of excess liquidity relative to our planning target. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the ratio of wholesale to total funding was 12.8% and 7.2% respectively, which is below our planning target of 15%. In addition to maintaining a stable core deposit base, we maintain adequate liquidity primarily through the use of investment securities, short term investments such as federal funds sold and unused borrowing capacity. We hold investments in FHLB stock for the purpose of maintaining credit lines with the FHLB. The credit availability is based on a percentage of the subsidiary bank’s total assets as reported in their most recent quarterly financial information submitted to the FHLB and subject to the pledging of sufficient collateral.
At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were $226.1 million and $96.3 million, respectively, in FHLB advances outstanding. In addition, we had $25.7 million and $25.6 million in letters of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Collateral available under our agreements with the FHLB provided for incremental borrowing availability of up to approximately $58.7 million and $95.4 million, respectively.
We believe that we have adequate funding sources through unused borrowing capacity from the FHLB, unpledged investment securities, cash on hand and on deposit in other financial institutions, loan principal repayment and potential asset maturities and sales to meet our foreseeable liquidity requirements and contractual obligations.
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our holding company had cash of approximately $73.6 million and $109.9 million, respectively. This cash is available for providing capital support to our subsidiary bank and for other general corporate purposes, including potential future acquisitions. The decline in cash at our holding company was primarily due to the repurchase of $85.4 million of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Partially offsetting this decline was $56.0 million of dividends to the Company by its subsidiary Capital Bank N.A., which was approved by the OCC on July 8, 2014.
We calculate tangible book value, and tangible book value per share, which are non-GAAP measures because we believe they are useful for both investors and management as these are measures commonly used by financial institutions, regulators and investors to measure the capital adequacy of financial institutions. Tangible book value is equal to book value less goodwill and core deposit intangibles, net of related deferred tax liabilities. We believe these measures facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company’s capital over time and in comparison to its competitors. These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations and are not required to be uniformly applied. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyzes of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies and should not be viewed as a substitute for total shareholders’ equity. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of tangible book value and tangible book value per share to total shareholders’ equity, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk Management
The Company pursues a conservative strategy with respect to interest rate risk management, with the goal of minimizing the risk that interest rate volatility will negatively impact our financial results. Due to the current low level of interest rates, we regard rising interest rates as the most likely source of risk and accordingly have sought to maintain an asset-sensitive position.
There are several components to our conservative interest rate strategy. First, we avoid holding loans with long duration. At September 30, 2014, approximately 52% of the loan portfolio was variable rate and of the remaining fixed rate loans, the vast majority had terms of five years or less. Second, the purpose of our securities portfolio is to provide liquidity and to manage interest rate sensitivity, and as such we limit its duration. At September 30, 2014, securities accounted for 16% of assets, and the effective duration of the portfolio was 3.6 years with limited extension risk to 3.8 years in a plus 300 immediate parallel shift in interest rates. We utilize average life estimates based on prepayment rates obtained from an independent source. Third, we seek to fund the Bank, to the extent possible, with long-duration core deposits, and within core deposits, we emphasize checking account balances as the most stable and least risky source of funds. At September 30, 2014, core deposits accounted for 72% of total deposits, and checking balances accounted for 62% of core deposits.
We continuously monitor the Bank’s interest rate risk profile through our Asset Liability Committee, which consists of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Credit Officer, Chief of Strategic Planning, Treasurer, business unit heads and certain other officers. To manage interest rate risk, our Board of Directors has established quantitative and qualitative guidelines with respect to our net interest income exposure and how predefined interest rate shocks affect our financial performance, measured in terms of forecast net interest income and economic value of equity, which is the intrinsic value of assets, less the intrinsic value of liabilities. Under our policy, these predefined rate shocks include minus 300, minus 200, minus 100, plus 100, plus 200 and plus 300 basis point immediate parallel shifts in interest rates.
If a predefined immediate parallel rate shock cannot be modeled due to the low level of interest rates, a proportional rate shock and policy limit applies and all other declining rate shocks will be suspended until such scenarios can be modeled. Because of the current low level of interest rates, the minus 100, minus 200 and minus 300 rate shocks have been suspended. The maximum negative impact on forecast net interest income and economic value of equity in a minus 25 basis point immediate parallel shift in interest rates is measured on a proportional basis. In addition to monitoring our compliance with these policies, management undertakes additional analysis, considering a wide range of possible interest rate fluctuations, including changes in the shape of the yield curve, and assessing the sensitivity of these results to key assumptions, including the behavior of depositors and loan customers.
Based upon the current interest rate environment, as of September 30, 2014, our sensitivity to interest rate risk was as follows:

We used many assumptions to calculate the impact of changes in interest rates on our portfolio, and actual results may not be similar to projections due to several factors, including the timing and frequency of rate changes, market conditions and the shape of the yield curve. Actual results may also differ due to our actions, if any, in response to the changing rates. In calculating these exposures, we use an interest rate simulation model which is validated by third-party reviewers on an annual basis.
In the event the model indicates an unacceptable level of risk, we may take a number of actions to reduce this risk, including changing the terms, pricing, and conditions of new loans and deposits, the sale of a portion of our available-for-sale investment portfolio or the use of risk management strategies such as interest rate swaps and caps. As of September 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all of the limits and policies established by our Board of Directors for active scenarios.

Inflation Risk Management
Inflation has an important impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry and creates a need to increase equity capital to higher than normal levels in order to maintain an appropriate equity-to-assets ratio. We cope with the effects of inflation by managing our interest rate sensitivity position through our asset/liability management program, and by periodically adjusting our pricing of services and banking products to take into consideration current costs.
