PEOPLES BANCORP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Peoples" refers to Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries collectively, except where the context indicates the reference relates solely to Peoples Bancorp Inc.) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, these financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Peoples’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 ("Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K").
The accounting and reporting policies followed in the presentation of the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those described in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2021 Form 10-K, as updated by the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022 (this "Form 10-Q").  Management has evaluated all significant events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2022 for potential recognition or disclosure in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.  In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information for the periods and at the dates indicated.  Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.  The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2021, contained herein, has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in Peoples’ 2021 Form 10-K. 
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, due in part to seasonal variations and unusual or infrequently occurring items.
New Accounting Pronouncements: From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by Peoples as of the required effective dates. The following paragraphs related to new pronouncements should be read in conjunction with "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2021 Form 10-K. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes the impact of any recently issued standards, including those issued but not yet effective, will not have a material impact on Peoples' financial statements taken as a whole.
Accounting Standards Updated ("ASU") ASU 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying US GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. This guidance was further updated by ASU 2021-01. This update is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. This ASU was early adopted as of September 30, 2021, and does not have a significant impact on Peoples' Consolidated Financial Statements, but is expected to reduce the accounting burden of assessing contracts impacted by reference rate reform.
ASU 2022-01 - Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method - Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). This ASU clarifies the guidance in ASC 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios of financial assets. This ASU expands and clarifies the current guidance on accounting for fair value hedge basis adjustments under the portfolio layer method for both single-layer and multiple-layer hedges. For entities that have already adopted ASU 2017-12, as Peoples has, the amendments in ASU 2022-01 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this ASU may also be early adopted, including adoption in any interim period. Peoples is currently evaluating the impact of the amendments in this ASU on Peoples' consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2022-02 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings ("TDRs") and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance on troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) for creditors and amends the guidance on disclosures to include current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. This ASU also updates the requirements related to accounting for credit losses under ASC 326 and adds enhanced disclosures for creditors with respect to loan refinancings and restructurings for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. For entities that have already adopted ASU 2016-13, as Peoples has, the amendments in ASU 2022-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this ASU may also be early adopted, including adoption in any interim period. Peoples is currently evaluating the impact of the amendments in this ASU on Peoples' consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

9
Table of Contents
Fair value represents the amount expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in its principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with fair value accounting guidance, Peoples measures, records and reports various types of assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or a non-recurring basis in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Those assets and liabilities are presented below in the sections entitled “Assets and Liabilities Required to be Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis” and “Assets and Liabilities Required to be Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis.”
Depending on the nature of the asset or the liability, Peoples uses various valuation methodologies and assumptions to estimate fair value. The measurement of fair value under US GAAP uses a hierarchy, which is described in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K.
Assets and liabilities are assigned to a level within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of significant input used to measure fair value. Assets and liabilities may change levels within the fair value hierarchy due to market conditions or other circumstances. Those transfers are recognized on the date of the event that prompted the transfer. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the periods presented.
Assets and Liabilities Required to be Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table provides the fair value for assets and liabilities required to be measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets by level in the fair value hierarchy.

Available-for-Sale Investment Securities: The fair values used by Peoples are obtained from an independent pricing service and represent either quoted market prices for the identical securities (Level 1) or fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatility, LIBOR (or other relevant) yield curves, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2). Management reviews the valuation methodology and quality controls utilized by the pricing services in management's overall assessment of the reasonableness of the fair values provided, and challenges prices when management believes a material discrepancy in pricing exists.
Equity Investment Securities: The fair values of Peoples' equity investment securities are obtained from quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) or quoted prices in less active markets (Level 2).
Derivative Assets and Liabilities: Derivative assets and liabilities are recognized on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value within "Other assets", and "Accrued expenses and other liabilities", respectively. The fair value for derivative financial instruments is determined based on market prices, broker-dealer quotations on similar products, or other related input parameters (Level 2).

(b) Included in "Other intangible assets" on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Servicing rights are carried at the lower of cost or market value.
(c) Peoples established a valuation allowance on servicing rights of $6 at June 30, 2022 and $12 at December 31, 2021. The fair value of the servicing rights on 10-year fixed rate loans was less than the carrying value.

Collateral Dependent Loans: Loans for which repayment is dependent upon the operation or sale of collateral, as the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty are considered collateral dependent. Peoples utilizes outside third-party appraisal services to value the underlying collateral, for which Peoples uses to report the loans at their fair value (Level 3).
Loans Held for Sale: Loans originated and intended to be sold in the secondary market, generally one-to-four family residential loans, are carried, in aggregate, at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. Peoples uses a valuation model using quoted market prices of similar instruments in arriving at the fair value (Level 2).
Other Real Estate Owned: OREO, included in "Other assets" on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, is comprised primarily of commercial and residential real estate properties acquired by Peoples in satisfaction of a loan. OREO obtained in satisfaction of a loan is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell the property. The carrying value of OREO is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis, but is based on recent real estate appraisals and is updated at least annually. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including the comparable sales approach and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available (Level 3).
Servicing Rights: Servicing rights are included in "Other intangible assets" on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of servicing rights is determined by using a discounted cash flow model, which estimates the present value of the future net cash flows of the servicing portfolio based on various factors, such as servicing costs, expected prepayment speeds and discount rates (Level 3). The carrying value of servicing rights is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis. Peoples assesses the carrying value of servicing rights quarterly for impairment.

For certain financial assets and liabilities, carrying value approximates fair value due to the nature of the financial instrument.  These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, and overnight borrowings.  Peoples used the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of the following financial instruments:
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, balances due from other banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, federal funds sold and other short-term investments with original maturities of ninety days or less. The carrying amount for cash on hand and balances due from banks is a reasonable estimate of fair value (Level 1).
Held-to-Maturity Investment Securities: The fair values used by Peoples are obtained from an independent pricing service and represent fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatility, relevant yield curves, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2). Management reviews the valuation methodology and quality controls utilized by the pricing services in management's overall assessment of the reasonableness of the fair values provided, and challenges prices when management believes a material discrepancy in pricing exists.

Table of Contents
Other Investment Securities: Other investment securities at cost are not recorded at fair value as they are not marketable securities. Other investment securities at fair value are valued using quoted prices in an active market (Level 1) or quoted prices in less active markets (Level 2).
Loans and Leases, Net of Deferred Fees and Costs: The fair value of portfolio loans and leases assumes sale of the underlying notes to a third-party financial investor. Accordingly, this value is not necessarily the value to Peoples if the notes were held-to-maturity.  Peoples considered interest rate, credit and market factors in estimating the fair value of loans and leases (Level 3). Fair values for loans and leases are estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discount rates take into account interest rates currently being offered to customers for loans and leases with similar terms, the credit risk associated with the loans and leases and other market factors, including liquidity.
Bank Owned Life Insurance: Peoples' bank owned life insurance policies are recorded at their cash surrender value (Level 2). Peoples recognizes tax-exempt income from the periodic increases in the cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.
Deposits: The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit ("CDs") is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation based on current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities (Level 2). Demand and other non-fixed-maturity deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation based on maturity, attrition and re-pricing assumptions.
Short-term Borrowings: The fair value of short-term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on rates currently available to Peoples for borrowings with similar terms (Level 2). 
Long-term Borrowings: The fair value of long-term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on rates currently available to Peoples for borrowings with similar terms (Level 2). 
Certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are not required to be measured or reported at fair value can be subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).  These financial assets and liabilities include the following: customer relationships, the deposit base, and other information required to compute Peoples’ aggregate fair value, which are not included in the above information.  Accordingly, the above fair values are not intended to represent the aggregate fair value of Peoples.

Management evaluates available-for-sale investment securities for an allowance for credit losses on a quarterly basis.  At June 30, 2022, management concluded that no individual securities at an unrealized loss position required an allowance for credit losses. At June 30, 2022, Peoples did not have the intent to sell, nor was it more likely than not that Peoples would be required to sell, any of the securities with an unrealized loss prior to recovery. Further, the unrealized losses at both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were largely attributable to changes in market interest rates and spreads since the securities were purchased, and were not credit-related losses. Accrued interest receivable is not included in investment securities balances, and is presented in the “Other assets” line of the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, with no recorded allowance for credit losses. Interest receivable on investment securities was $6.3 million at June 30, 2022 and $5.5 million at December 31, 2021.
At June 30, 2022, approximately 99% of the mortgage-backed securities with a market value that had been at an unrealized loss position for twelve months or more were issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies. The remaining 1%, or three positions, consisted of privately issued mortgage-backed securities with all of the underlying mortgages originated prior to 2004. All three positions had a fair value of less than 90% of its book value. Management analyzed the underlying credit quality of these mortgage-

Table of Contents
backed securities and concluded the unrealized losses were primarily attributable to the floating rate nature of these investments and the low remaining number of loans underlying these securities.
The unrealized loss with respect to the one bank-issued trust preferred securities that had been in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or more at June 30, 2022 was attributable to the subordinated nature of the debt.
The table below presents the amortized cost, fair value and total weighted-average yield of available-for-sale securities by contractual maturity at June 30, 2022.  The weighted-average yields are based on the amortized cost.  In some cases, the issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without call or prepayment penalties prior to the contractual maturity date.

Management evaluates held-to-maturity investment securities for an allowance for credit losses on a quarterly basis. The majority of Peoples' held-to-maturity investment securities are obligations of states and political subdivisions with the remaining securities issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies. Peoples analyzed these securities using cumulative default rate averages for investment grade municipal securities. Peoples recorded $286,000 of allowance for credit losses for held-to-maturity securities at each of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, Peoples recognized a loss of $18,000 and a gain of $73,000, respectively, for the change in fair value of equity securities in "Other non-interest income".
At June 30, 2022, Peoples' investment in equity investment securities was comprised largely of common stocks issued by various unrelated bank holding companies. There were no equity investment securities of a single issuer that exceeded 10% of Peoples' stockholders' equity.
Pledged Securities
Peoples has pledged available-for-sale investment securities and held-to-maturity investment securities to secure public and trust department deposits, and repurchase agreements in accordance with federal and state requirements.  Peoples has also pledged available-for-sale investment securities to secure additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB and the FRB as well as to derivative counterparties as collateral on unrealized interest rate swaps.

Note 4 Loans and Leases
Peoples' loan portfolio consists of various types of loans and leases originated primarily as a result of lending opportunities within Peoples' footprint. Peoples also originates insurance premium finance loans and leases nationwide through its Peoples Premium Finance and North Star Leasing divisions, and Vantage Financial, LLC ("Vantage") subsidiary, respectively. Loans and leases throughout this document are referred to as "total loans" and "loans held for investment".

The major classifications of loan balances (in each case, net of deferred fees and costs) excluding loans held for sale, were as follows:

On March 7, 2022, Peoples completed the acquisition of Vantage, which included $157.5 million of leases. During the first six months of 2022, Peoples experienced elevated levels of payoffs and amortization of previously-acquired loans, which partially offset organic loan growth.
Peoples is a Small Business Administration ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") lender. At June 30, 2022, the PPP loans had an amortized cost of $15.2 million, and were included in the commercial and industrial loan balances. As of June 30, 2022, deferred loan origination fees, net of deferred origination costs, totaled $0.4 million for PPP loans. During the second quarter of 2022, Peoples recorded amortization of net deferred loan origination fees of $0.6 million on PPP loans compared to $3.4 million for the second quarter of 2021. The remaining net deferred loan origination fees will be amortized over the life of the respective loans, or until forgiven by the SBA, and will be recognized in "Net interest income".
Accrued interest receivable is not included within the loan balances, but is presented in the “Other assets” line of the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, with no recorded allowance for credit losses. Total interest receivable on loans was $12.0 million at both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans
A loan is considered past due if any required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were required to be made under the terms of the loan agreement. A loan may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loan is considered past due.
The amortized cost of loans on nonaccrual status and of loans delinquent for 90 days or more and accruing was as follows:

(a) There were $2.3 million of nonaccrual loans for which there was no allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2022 and $2.6 million at December 31, 2021.
During the first six months of 2022, nonaccrual loans declined compared to December 31, 2021, which was primarily due to the payoff of one commercial relationship, coupled with other smaller reductions. The increase in accruing loans 90+ days past due, compared to December 31, 2021, was the result of the additional leases acquired in the Vantage acquisition, the majority of which related to in-process renewals. As of June 30, 2022, the short-term modifications, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment for current borrowers Peoples had made were insignificant. Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), borrowers are considered current if they are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. As such, these modifications made in accordance with the CARES Act were not included in Peoples' nonaccrual or accruing loans 90+ days past due at June 30, 2022.
The amount of interest income recognized on loans past due 90 days or more during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.7 million.

Pledged Loans
Peoples has pledged certain loans secured by one-to-four family and multifamily residential mortgages, home equity lines of credit and commercial real estate loans under a blanket collateral agreement to secure borrowings from the FHLB. Peoples also has pledged eligible commercial and industrial loans to secure borrowings with the FRB. Loans pledged are summarized as follows:

Credit Quality Indicators
As discussed in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K, Peoples categorizes the majority of its loans into risk categories based upon an established risk grading matrix using a scale of 1 to 8. Loan grades are assigned at the time a new loan or lending commitment is extended by Peoples and may be changed at any time when circumstances warrant. Loans to borrowers with an aggregate unpaid principal balance in excess of $1.0 million are reviewed at least on an annual basis for possible credit deterioration. Loan relationships whose aggregate credit exposure to Peoples is equal to or less than $1.0 million are reviewed on an event driven basis. Triggers for review include knowledge of adverse events affecting the borrower's business, receipt of financial statements indicating deteriorating credit quality or other similar events. Adversely classified loans are reviewed on a quarterly basis. A description of the general characteristics of the risk grades used by Peoples, including loans and leases acquired from Vantage and Premier, is as follows:
“Pass” (grades 1 through 4): Loans in this risk category involve borrowers of acceptable-to-strong credit quality and risk who have the apparent ability to satisfy their loan obligations. Loans in this risk grade would possess sufficient mitigating factors, such as adequate collateral or strong guarantors possessing the capacity to repay the loan if required, for any weakness that may exist.
“Special Mention” (grade 5): Loans in this risk grade are the equivalent of the regulatory definition of “Other Assets Especially Mentioned.” Loans in this risk category possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness, which requires a high level of management attention. Potential weaknesses include declining trends in operating earnings and cash flows and/or reliance on a secondary source of repayment. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in noticeable deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or in Peoples' credit position.
“Substandard” (grade 6): Loans in this risk grade are inadequately protected by the borrower's current financial condition and payment capability or the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have one or more well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly repayment of the loans. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that Peoples will sustain some loss if the weaknesses are not corrected.
“Doubtful” (grade 7): Loans in this risk grade have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or orderly repayment in full, on the basis of current existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain

20
Table of Contents
important and reasonably specific factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the exposure, classification of each of these loans as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.
“Loss” (grade 8): Loans in this risk grade are considered to be non-collectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This does not mean a loan has absolutely no recovery value, but rather it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future. Charge-offs against the allowance for credit losses are taken during the period in which the loan becomes uncollectible. Consequently, Peoples typically does not maintain a recorded investment in loans within this category.
Consumer loans and other smaller-balance loans are evaluated and categorized as “substandard,” or “loss” consistent with the regulatory definitions and requirements of these classes. Leases are categorized as "special mention", "substandard", or "loss" based upon delinquency status and the prospect of collecting the remaining net investment balance owed under the lease. All other loans not evaluated individually, nor meeting the regulatory conditions to be categorized as described above, would be considered as “pass" for disclosure purposes.
The following table summarizes the risk category of loans within Peoples' loan portfolio, including acquired loans, based upon the most recent analysis performed at June 30, 2022:

Collateral Dependent Loans
Peoples has certain loans for which repayment is dependent upon the operation or sale of collateral, as the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The underlying collateral can vary based upon the type of loan. The following provides more detail about the types of collateral that secure collateral dependent loans:
• Construction loans are typically secured by owner occupied commercial real estate or non-owner occupied investment real estate. Typically, owner occupied construction loans are secured by office buildings, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and other commercial and industrial properties that are in process of construction. Non-owner occupied commercial construction loans are generally secured by office buildings and complexes, multi-family complexes, land under development, and other commercial and industrial real estate in process of construction.
•Commercial real estate loans can be secured by either owner occupied commercial real estate or non-owner occupied investment commercial real estate. Typically, owner occupied commercial real estate loans are secured by office buildings, warehouses, manufacturing facilities and other commercial and industrial properties occupied by operating companies. Non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans are generally secured by office buildings and complexes, retail facilities, multifamily complexes, land under development, industrial properties, as well as other commercial or industrial real estate.
•Commercial and industrial loans are generally secured by equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, and other commercial property.
•Residential real estate loans are typically secured by first mortgages, and in some cases could be secured by a second mortgage.
•Home equity lines of credit are generally secured by second mortgages on residential real estate property.
•Consumer loans are generally secured by automobiles, motorcycles, recreational vehicles and other personal property. Some consumer loans are unsecured and have no underlying collateral.
•Leases are secured by commercial equipment and other essential business assets.
•Premium finance loans are secured by the unearned portion of the insurance premium being financed.
The following table details Peoples' amortized cost of collateral dependent loans:

Total collateral dependent loans$16,179 $50,119 
The decrease in collateral dependent loans at June 30, 2022, compared to December 31, 2021, was primarily due to three large commercial relationships that were no longer considered collateral dependent at June 30, 2022.

On March 22, 2020, federal and state government banking regulators issued a joint statement, with which the FASB concurred as to the approach, regarding accounting for loan modifications for borrowers affected by COVID-19. In this guidance, short-term modifications, made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19, to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not considered TDRs. This includes short-term modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment which are insignificant. Under the guidance, the borrowers that are considered to be current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. In addition, modification or deferral programs mandated by the U.S. federal government or any state government related to COVID-19 are not in the scope of accounting for TDRs, as defined in ASC 310-40.
Peoples had two loans totaling $16,000 that were modified as TDRs during the past twelve months that subsequently defaulted (i.e., 90 days or more past due following a modification during the year).
Peoples had no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified in a TDR.

Note 8 Employee Benefit Plans
Peoples sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all employees hired before January 1, 2010.  The plan provides retirement benefits based on an employee’s years of service and compensation.  For employees hired before January 1, 2003, the amount of postretirement benefit is based on the employee’s average monthly compensation over the highest five consecutive years out of the employee’s last ten years with Peoples while an eligible employee.  For employees hired on or after January 1, 2003, the amount of postretirement benefit is based on 2% of the employee’s annual compensation during the years 2003 through 2009, plus accrued interest.  Effective January 1, 2010, the pension plan was closed to new entrants.  Effective March 1, 2011, the accrual of pension plan benefits for all participants was frozen. Peoples recognized this freeze as a curtailment as of December 31, 2010 and March 1, 2011, under the terms of the pension plan. Effective July 1, 2013, a participant in the pension plan who is employed by Peoples may elect to receive or to commence receiving such person's retirement benefits as of the later of such person's normal retirement date or the first day of the month first following the date such person makes an election to receive his or her retirement benefits.
Peoples also provides post-retirement health and life insurance benefits to certain former employees and directors. Only those individuals who retired before January 27, 2012 were eligible for life insurance benefits. As of January 1, 2011, all retirees who desire to participate in the Peoples Bank medical plan do so by electing COBRA, which provides up to 18 months of coverage; retirees over the age of 65 also have the option to pay to participate in a group Medicare supplemental plan. Peoples only pays 100% of the cost of health benefits for those individuals who retired before January 1, 1993. For all others, the retiree is responsible for most, if not all, of the cost of the health benefits. Peoples’ policy is to fund the cost of the benefits as they arise.
The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, which was determined as of January 1, 2022, is 7.0%. The following table details the components of the net periodic cost for the plan described above, which is included in salaries and employee benefit costs on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations:

Under US GAAP, Peoples is required to recognize a settlement gain or loss when the aggregate amount of lump-sum distributions to participants equals or exceeds the sum of the service and interest cost components of the net periodic pension cost. The amount of settlement gain or loss recognized is the pro rata amount of the unrealized gain or loss existing immediately prior to the settlement. In general, both the projected benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets are required to be remeasured in order to determine the settlement gain or loss.
Peoples did not record a settlement charge for the six months ended June 30, 2022 or June 30, 2021 under the noncontributory defined benefit pension plan.

Note 10 Derivative Financial Instruments
Peoples utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset/liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements. The fair value of derivative financial instruments is included in the "Other assets" and the "Accrued expenses and other liabilities" lines in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, while cash activity related to these derivative financial instruments is included in the activity in "Net cash provided by operating activities" in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities - Risk Management Objective of Using Derivative Financial Instruments
Peoples is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. Peoples principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. Peoples manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its assets and liabilities. Peoples also manages interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, Peoples enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known or expected cash amounts, the values of which are determined by interest rates. Peoples’ derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of Peoples' known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to certain variable rate borrowings. Peoples also has interest rate derivative financial instruments that result from a service provided to certain qualifying customers and, therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in Peoples' assets or liabilities. Peoples manages a matched book with respect to customer-related derivative financial instruments in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Peoples' objectives in using interest rate derivative financial instruments are to add stability to interest income and expense, and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, Peoples has entered into interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Peoples making fixed payments. At June 30, 2022, Peoples had entered into thirteen interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional value of $125.0 million. Peoples will pay a fixed rate of interest for up to ten years while receiving a floating rate component of interest equal to the three-month LIBOR rate. The interest received on the floating rate component is intended to offset the interest paid on rolling three-month brokered CDs and 90-day FHLB Advances, which will continue to be rolled through the life of the swaps. At June 30, 2022, the interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of $85.0 million in brokered demand deposits, which are expected to be extended every 90 days through the maturity dates of the swaps. The remaining $40.0 million of interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of 90-day FHLB Advances.

35
Table of Contents
For derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges, the effective and ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of each derivative financial instrument is reported in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income ("AOCI") (outside of earnings), net of tax, and are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made or received on Peoples' variable-rate liabilities. Peoples assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the hedging derivative financial instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged transaction. The reset dates and the payment dates on the 90-day advances or brokered CDs are matched to the reset dates and payment dates on the receipt of the three-month LIBOR floating portion of the swaps to ensure effectiveness of the cash flow hedge. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, Peoples had recorded reclassifications of losses to earnings of $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, Peoples recorded reclassifications of losses to earnings of $1.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively. During the next twelve months, Peoples estimates that $1.2 million of AOCI will be reclassified as a reduction to interest expense.

Non-Designated Hedges
Peoples maintains an interest rate protection program for commercial loan customers, which was established in 2010. Under this program, Peoples originates variable rate loans with interest rate swaps, where the customer enters into an interest rate swap with Peoples on terms that match the terms of the loan. By entering into the interest rate swap with the customer, Peoples Bank effectively provides the customer with a fixed rate loan while creating a variable rate asset for Peoples Bank. Peoples Bank offsets its exposure in the swap by entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with an unaffiliated institution. These interest rate swaps do not qualify as designated hedges; therefore, each swap is accounted for as a standalone derivative financial instrument. These interest rate swaps did not have a material impact on Peoples' results of operations or financial condition at or for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and as of or for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The following table reflects the non-designated hedges, which are included in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value:

Pledged Collateral
Peoples pledges or receives collateral for all interest rate swaps. When the fair value of Peoples' interest rate swaps is in a net liability position, Peoples must pledge collateral, and, when the fair value of Peoples' interest rate swaps is in a net asset position, the respective counterparties must pledge collateral. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Peoples had no cash pledged, while the counterparties had $10.0 million of cash pledged at June 30, 2022 and none pledged at December 31, 2021. Peoples had no pledged investment securities and $28.1 million in investment securities at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, while the counterparties had pledged $3.2 million at June 30, 2022 and none at December 31, 2021.
Note 11 Stock-Based Compensation
Under the Peoples Bancorp Inc. Third Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Plan (the "2006 Equity Plan"), Peoples may grant, among other awards, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted common share awards, stock appreciation rights, performance units and unrestricted common share awards to employees and non-employee directors. The total number of common shares available under the 2006 Equity Plan is 891,340.  The maximum number of common shares that can be issued for incentive stock options is 500,000 common shares.  Since February 2009, Peoples has granted restricted common shares to employees, and periodically to non-employee directors, subject to the terms and conditions prescribed by the 2006 Equity Plan. Additionally, in 2021, Peoples granted unrestricted common shares to non-employee directors (in addition to their directors' fees paid in common shares). In general, common shares issued in connection with stock-based awards are issued from treasury shares to the extent available.  If no treasury shares are available, common shares are issued from authorized but unissued common shares.
Restricted Common Shares
 Under the 2006 Equity Plan, Peoples may award restricted common shares to officers, key employees and non-employee directors.  In general, the restrictions on the restricted common shares awarded to employees expire after periods ranging from one to five years. Since 2018, common shares awarded to non-employee directors have vested immediately upon grant with no restrictions. In the first six months of 2022, Peoples granted an aggregate of 154,645 restricted common shares subject to performance-based vesting to officers and key employees with restrictions that will lapse three years after the grant date; provided that in order for the restricted common shares to vest in full, Peoples must have reported positive net income and maintained a well-capitalized status by regulatory standards for each of the three fiscal years preceding the vesting date.
The following table summarizes the changes to Peoples’ restricted common shares for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the total intrinsic value for restricted common shares released was $3.5 million compared to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Stock-Based Compensation
Peoples recognizes stock-based compensation, which is included as a component of Peoples’ salaries and employee benefit costs, for restricted and unrestricted common shares, as well as purchases made by participants in the employee stock purchase plan. For restricted common shares, Peoples recognizes stock-based compensation based on the estimated fair value of the awards expected to vest on the grant date. The estimated fair value is then expensed over the vesting period, which is normally three years. For performance unit awards, Peoples recognizes stock-based compensation over the performance period, based on the portion of the

awards that was expected to vest based on the expected level of achievement of the two performance goals. Peoples also has an employee stock purchase plan whereby employees can purchase Peoples' common shares at a discount of 15%. The following table summarizes the amount of stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefit recognized for each period:

Restricted common shares were the primary form of stock-based compensation awards granted by Peoples in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The fair value of restricted common share awards on the grant date is the market price of Peoples' common shares on that date. Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted common share awards was $5.3 million at June 30, 2022, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.

Peoples records contract assets for income that has been recognized over a period of time for fulfillment of performance obligations, but has not yet been received related to electronic banking income and certain insurance income. This income typically relates to bonuses for which Peoples is eligible, but will not receive until a certain time in the future. Peoples records contract liabilities for payments received for commission income related to the sale of insurance policies, for which the performance obligations have not yet been fulfilled. The contract liabilities are recognized as income over time, during the period in which the performance obligations are fulfilled, which is over the insurance policy period. Peoples also records contract liabilities for bonuses received related to electronic banking income, for which the performance obligations have not yet been fulfilled. The contract liabilities are recognized as income over time, during the period in which the performance obligations are fulfilled related to electronic banking income.

Note 13 Acquisitions
Elite Agency, Inc
On April 1, 2022, Peoples Insurance acquired substantially all of the assets and rights of an insurance agency with five locations in eastern Kentucky and certain rights to related customer accounts, which were previously developed and maintained by Elite Agency, Inc. ("Elite"), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement between Peoples Insurance and Elite. Total consideration for this transaction was $3.8 million. Peoples recognized preliminary intangibles of $2.1 million, primarily comprised of a customer relationship intangible.
Vantage Financial, LLC
On March 7, 2022, Peoples Bank purchased 100% of the equity of Vantage, a nationwide provider of equipment financing headquartered in Excelsior, Minnesota. Peoples Bank acquired assets comprising Vantage's lease business, including $157.5 million in leases and certain third-party debt in the amount of $107.1 million. Under the terms of the agreement, Peoples Bank paid cash consideration of $54.0 million, and also repaid $28.9 million in recourse debt on behalf of Vantage, for total consideration of $82.9 million. Vantage offers mid-ticket equipment leases, primarily for business essential information technology equipment across a wide-array of industries.
Peoples recorded acquisition-related expenses during the first six months of 2022 of $1.5 million related to the Vantage acquisition, which included $1.1 million in professional fees.
The following table provides the preliminary purchase price calculation as of the date of the acquisition of Vantage, and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values, and the amounts are subject to adjustment for up to one year after March 7, 2022.

The goodwill recorded in connection with the Vantage acquisition is related to expected synergies to be gained from the combination of Vantage with Peoples' operations. The employees retained from the Vantage acquisition should allow Peoples to continue to grow the lease portfolio, along with Peoples' resources, and should benefit Peoples in future periods. During Peoples' evaluation of intangible assets, it was determined that an assembled workforce intangible asset was not separately recognizable and was included in goodwill.

Premier Financial Bancorp, Inc.
On September 17, 2021, Peoples completed its merger with Premier. Premier merged into Peoples, and Premier’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Premier Bank, Inc., and Citizens Deposit Bank and Trust, Inc., which combined operated 48 branches in Kentucky, Maryland, Ohio, Virginia, West Virginia and Washington, D.C., merged into Peoples’ wholly-owned subsidiary, Peoples Bank. As consideration, Premier shareholders were paid 0.58 common shares of Peoples for each full share of Premier that was owned at the acquisition date, resulting in the issuance of 8,589,685 common shares by Peoples, or $261.9 million. Peoples accounted for this transaction as a business combination under the acquisition method. Peoples completed the merger in an effort to diversify and expand its franchise, and further enhance its size and scale. Peoples believes the growth potential, and attractive market areas will benefit its future financial performance.
Peoples recorded acquisition-related expenses related to the Premier merger during the first six months of 2022 of $427,000.
Peoples recorded the estimate of fair value based on initial valuations available at September 17, 2021, and has revised fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities in the periods since based on subsequent information obtained where those facts and circumstances existed as of the acquisition date. The estimates of fair value are subject to adjustment for up to one year after September 17, 2021. Valuations subject to change include loans and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Loans acquired by Peoples in a business combination that have evidence of more than insignificant credit deterioration, which includes loans that Peoples believes it is probable that Peoples will be unable to collect all contractually required payments, are considered "purchased credit deteriorated" loans. Acquired purchased credit deteriorated loans are reported net of the unamortized fair value adjustment. These loans are recorded at the purchase price, and an allowance for credit losses is determined based upon discrete credit marks, along with discounted cash flow models based upon similar pools of loans, using a similar methodology as for other loans.

NS Leasing, LLC
Peoples Bank entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated March 24, 2021 with NS Leasing, LLC, which is headquartered in Burlington, Vermont, and does business as “North Star Leasing”. The transaction closed after the end of business on March 31, 2021 and Peoples Bank began operating the acquired business as a division of Peoples Bank on April 1, 2021. Peoples Bank acquired assets comprising NSL’s equipment finance business and assumed from NSL certain specified liabilities for total cash consideration of $116.5 million, plus a potential earnout payment to NSL of up to $3.1 million. Peoples Bank acquired $83.3 million in leases and satisfied, on behalf of NSL, certain third-party debt in the amount of $69.1 million. NSL underwrites, originates and services equipment leases and equipment financing agreements to businesses throughout the United States. Peoples recorded goodwill in the amount of $24.7 million and other intangibles of $14.0 million, which included a customer relationship intangible, a trade-name intangible and non-compete agreements related to this transaction. Peoples also recorded and paid an earn-out provision of approximately $3.0 million. Peoples accounted for this transaction as a business combination under the acquisition method.
The recorded goodwill associated with the NSL acquisition is related to expected synergies and operational efficiencies to be gained from the combination of NSL with Peoples' operations. The employees retained from the NSL acquisition should allow Peoples to continue to grow the lease portfolio, along with Peoples' resources, and should benefit Peoples in future periods. During Peoples' evaluation of intangible assets, it was determined that an assembled workforce intangible asset was not separately recognizable and was included in goodwill.

Leases acquired by Peoples in a business combination that have evidence of more than insignificant credit deterioration, which includes leases that Peoples believes it is probable that Peoples will be unable to collect all contractually required payments, are considered "purchased credit deteriorated" leases. These leases are recorded at the purchase price, and an allowance for credit losses is determined using the same methodology as for other leases. Acquired purchased credit deteriorated leases are reported net of the unamortized fair value adjustment.

Note 14 Leases
Peoples has elected certain practical expedients, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 842 - Leases ("ASC 842"). As a lessor, Peoples has made an accounting policy election to exclude from consideration in the contract, and from variable payments not included in the consideration in the contract, all sales and other similar taxes assessed. Peoples has also made an accounting policy election to account for each separate lease component of a contract and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component for all leases subject to ASC 842.
Lessor Arrangements
Leases originated by Peoples, that Peoples has the positive intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or to maturity or payoff, are reported at the net investment of the lease, net of initial direct costs, charge-offs and an allowance for credit losses. Peoples considers leases past due if any required principal or interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were required to be made under the terms of the lease agreement. Upon detection of the reduced ability of a lessee to meet cash flow obligations, leases are typically charged down to the net realizable value, with the residual balance placed on nonaccrual status. Leases deemed to be uncollectable are charged against the allowance for credit losses, while recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to the allowance for credit losses.
Peoples began originating leases with the acquisition of leases from NSL in the second quarter of 2021, and expanded its lease portfolio with the acquisition of Vantage in the first quarter of 2022. The leases acquired from NSL were determined to be sales-type leases, as the premise for the leases is dollar buy-out, whereby the lessee pays one dollar at maturity of the lease to purchase the equipment. Originated leases continue to be classified as sales-type leases. These leases do not typically contain residual value guarantees; however, if a lease contains a residual value guarantee, Peoples reduces its residual asset risk by obtaining a security deposit from the lessee. The leases acquired from Vantage were determined to be either sales-type or direct financing leases based primarily on whether they included a dollar buy-out or a fair market value buy-out, respectively. As a lessor, Peoples originates commercial equipment leases either directly to the customer or indirectly through vendor programs. Equipment leases consist of automotive, construction, health care, manufacturing, office, restaurant, information technology and other equipment. These leases include estimated residual value, which are assessed for impairment as part of the allowance for credit losses. Other non-interest income noted in the table below includes gain on the early termination of leases, syndicated leases, and other fees. Additional information regarding Peoples' leases can be found in "Note 4 Loans and Leases."

Lessee Arrangements
Peoples leases certain banking facilities and equipment under various agreements with original terms providing for fixed monthly payments over periods generally ranging from two to thirty years. Certain leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Only those renewal and termination options which Peoples is reasonably certain of exercising are included in the calculation of the lease liability. Certain leases contain rent escalation clauses calling for rent increases over the term of the lease, which are included in the calculation of the lease liability.  At June 30, 2022, Peoples did not have any leases that met the criteria for finance leases. Right of Use ("ROU") assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement or remeasurement date of a lease based on the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. Operating lease ROU assets include lease payments made at or before the commencement date and initial indirect costs. Operating lease ROU assets exclude lease incentives. Short-term leases of certain facilities and equipment, with lease terms of 12 months or less, are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and do not have a ROU asset or lease liability.
The table below details Peoples' lease expense, which is included in "Net occupancy and equipment expense" in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations:

Short-term lease expense179 100 347 172 
Total lease expense$839 $450 $1,610 $852 
Peoples utilizes an incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments for each lease, as the lease agreements do not provide an implicit rate. The estimated incremental borrowing rate reflects a secured rate and is based on the term of the lease and the interest rate environment at the lease commencement or remeasurement date.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) represents an overview of the results of operations and financial condition of Peoples for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto.
Certain statements in this Form 10-Q, which are not historical fact, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements are identified by the fact they are not historical facts and include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "may," "feel," "expect," "believe," "plan," "will," "will likely," "would," "should," "could," "project," "goal," "target," "potential," "seek," "intend," "continue," "remain," and similar expressions.
These forward-looking statements reflect management's current expectations based on all information available to management and its knowledge of Peoples' business and operations. Additionally, Peoples' financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. These factors include, but are not limited to:
(1)the ever-changing effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic - the duration, extent and severity of which are impossible to predict, including the possibility of further resurgence in the spread of COVID-19 or variants thereof - on economies (local, national and international), supply chains and markets, on the labor market, including the potential for a sustained reduction in labor force participation, and on Peoples' customers, counterparties, employees and third-party service providers, as well as the effects of various responses of governmental and nongovernmental authorities to the COVID-19 pandemic, including public health actions directed toward the containment of the COVID-19 pandemic (such as quarantines, shut downs and other restrictions on travel and commercial, social and other activities), the availability, effectiveness and acceptance of vaccines, and the implementation of fiscal stimulus packages, which could adversely impact sales volumes, add volatility to the global stock markets, and increase loan delinquencies and defaults;
(2)changes in the interest rate environment due to economic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors and/or the fiscal and monetary policy measures undertaken by the U.S. government and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board") in response to such economic conditions, which may adversely impact market interest rates, the interest rate yield curve, interest margins, loan demand and interest rate sensitivity;
(3)the effects of inflationary pressures and the impact of rising interest rates on borrowers’ liquidity and ability to repay;
(4)the success, impact, and timing of the implementation of Peoples' business strategies and Peoples' ability to manage strategic initiatives, including the completion and successful integration of planned acquisitions, including the recently-completed merger with Premier and the recently-completed acquisitions of NSL and Vantage, and the expansion of commercial and consumer lending activities, in light of the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on customers' operations and financial condition;
(5)competitive pressures among financial institutions, or from non-financial institutions, which may increase significantly, including product and pricing pressures, which can in turn impact Peoples' credit spreads, changes to third-party relationships and revenues, changes in the manner of providing services, customer acquisition and retention pressures, and Peoples' ability to attract, develop and retain qualified professionals;
(6)uncertainty regarding the nature, timing, cost, and effect of legislative or regulatory changes or actions, or deposit insurance premium levels, promulgated and to be promulgated by governmental and regulatory agencies in the State of Ohio, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which may subject Peoples, its subsidiaries, or one or more acquired companies to a variety of new and more stringent legal and regulatory requirements which adversely affect their respective businesses, including in particular the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated under the CARES Act, and the follow-up legislation enacted as the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, and the Basel III regulatory capital reform;
(7)the effects of easing restrictions on participants in the financial services industry;
(8)local, regional, national and international economic conditions (including the impact of potential or imposed tariffs, a U.S. withdrawal from or significant renegotiation of trade agreements, trade wars and other changes in trade regulations, and changes in the relationship of the U.S. and its global trading partners) and the impact these conditions may have on Peoples, its customers and its counterparties, and Peoples' assessment of the impact, which may be different than anticipated;
(9)Peoples may issue equity securities in connection with future acquisitions, which could cause ownership and economic dilution to Peoples' current shareholders;

Table of Contents
(10)changes in prepayment speeds, loan originations, levels of nonperforming assets, delinquent loans, charge-offs, and customer and other counterparties' performance and creditworthiness generally, which may be less favorable than expected in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and adversely impact the amount of interest income generated;

(12)future credit quality and performance, including expectations regarding future credit losses and the allowance for credit losses;

(16)adverse changes in the conditions and trends in the financial markets, including the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related responses by governmental and nongovernmental authorities to the pandemic, which may adversely affect the fair value of securities within Peoples' investment portfolio, the interest rate sensitivity of Peoples' consolidated balance sheet, and the income generated by Peoples' trust and investment activities;
(17)the volatility from quarter to quarter of mortgage banking income, whether due to interest rates, demand, the fair value of mortgage loans, or other factors;
(18)Peoples' ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries;

(24)changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits, whether due to changes in retail distribution strategies, consumer preferences and behavior, changes in business and economic conditions (including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic), legislative or regulatory initiatives (including those in response to the COVID-19 pandemic), or other factors, which may be different than anticipated;

Business Overview
The following discussion and analysis of Peoples’ Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is presented to provide insight into management’s assessment of the financial condition and results of operations.
Peoples is a diversified financial services holding company that makes available a complete line of banking, trust and investment, insurance, premium financing and equipment leasing solutions through its subsidiaries.  Peoples provides services through traditional offices, ATMs, mobile banking and telephone and internet-based banking.  Peoples offers a complete array of insurance products through Peoples Insurance Agency, LLC. a subsidiary of Peoples Bank. Brokerage services are offered by Peoples exclusively through an unaffiliated registered broker-dealer located at Peoples Bank's offices.   Peoples Bank offers insurance premium finance lending nationwide through its Peoples Premium Finance division. Peoples also offers lease financing through its North Star Leasing division and through Vantage, a subsidiary of Peoples Bank. As of June 30, 2022, Peoples had 136 locations, including 117 full-service bank branches in Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Virginia, Washington D.C. and Maryland. Peoples Bank is subject to regulation and examination primarily by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions (the "ODFI"), the Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB") of Cleveland and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). Peoples Bank must also follow the regulations promulgated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the "CFPB") which regulates consumer financial products and services and certain financial services providers. Peoples Insurance is subject to regulation by the Ohio Department of Insurance and the state insurance regulatory agencies of those states in which Peoples Insurance may do business.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of Peoples conform to US GAAP.  The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.  Note 1 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements describes Peoples' significant account policies. Management has identified the accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to understanding Peoples’ Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and MD&A at June 30, 2022, which have been disclosed in Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K and updated in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in this Form 10-Q. This Management's Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the policies disclosed in Peoples’ 2021 Form 10-K.

(“Premier Bank”) and Citizens Deposit Bank and Trust, Inc. (“Citizens”). Under the terms and subject to the conditions of the definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 26, 2021 ("Merger Agreement"), Premier merged with and into Peoples (the “Premier Merger”), and Premier Bank and Citizens subsequently merged with and into Peoples’ wholly-owned subsidiary, Peoples Bank, in a transaction valued at $261.9 million.

The transaction closed after the end of business on March 31, 2021 and Peoples Bank began operating the acquired business as North Star Leasing, a division of Peoples Bank, on April 1, 2021. Peoples Bank acquired assets comprising NSL's equipment finance business, including $83.3 million in leases and satisfied, on behalf of NSL, certain third-party debt in the amount of $69.1 million. Peoples Bank paid total consideration of $116.6 million, plus an earn-out payment to NSL of up to $3.1 million. Based in Burlington, Vermont, the North Star Leasing division underwrites, originates and services equipment leases and equipment financing agreements to businesses throughout the United States. Peoples recorded goodwill in the amount of $24.7 million and other intangibles of $14.0 million, which included a customer relationship intangible, a trade-name intangible and non-compete agreements related to this transaction.
◦Peoples began originating loans during the second quarter of 2020, and continued to originate loans during the first five months of 2021 under the loan guarantee program created under the CARES Act, called the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"). These loans were targeted to provide small businesses with financial support to cover payroll and certain other specified types of expenses for a specified period of time. Loans made under the PPP are fully guaranteed by the Small Business Administration ("SBA"). As of June 30, 2022, Peoples had $15.2 million aggregate principal amount in PPP loans outstanding (including $5.6 million acquired in the Premier Merger), which were included in commercial and industrial loan balances, compared to $41.9 million (including $15.0 million acquired in the Premier Merger) at March 31, 2022. Peoples recognized interest income of $0.6 million for deferred loan fees/costs and $79,000 of interest income on PPP loans during the second quarter of 2022, compared to $1.2 million and $154,000, respectively, for the first quarter of 2022, and $3.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2021. During the first six months of 2022, Peoples recognized interest income of $1.8 million for deferred loan fee/cost accretion and $232,000 of interest income on PPP loans, compared to $8.1 million for deferred loan/ fee costs accretion and $1.6 million of interest income during the first six months of 2021.
◦During the second quarter of 2022, Peoples recorded a recovery of credit losses of $0.8 million, compared to a recovery of credit losses of $6.8 million in the linked quarter and a provision for credit losses of $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2021. For the first half of 2022, Peoples recorded a recovery of credit losses of $7.6 million compared to a recovery of credit losses of $1.7 million for 2021. The release of credit losses for the first two quarters of 2022 was driven by improvements in economic forecasts, coupled with loan payoffs and sales during certain periods. For more information, please refer to the section titled "RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Recovery of) Provision for Credit Losses" found later in this discussion.
◦During the second quarter of 2022, Peoples incurred $0.6 million of acquisition-related expenses, compared to $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2021. For the first six months of 2022, Peoples incurred $2.0 million of acquisition-related expenses compared to $4.3 million for 2021. The acquisition-related expenses in 2022 were primarily related to the Vantage acquisition, while the 2021 expenses were primarily related to the NSL acquisition and the Premier Merger.
◦In an effort to stimulate an economy that was being adversely impacted by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the benchmark Federal Funds Target Rate in two separate actions in the first quarter of 2020 to a range of 0% - 0.25% as of March 31, 2020 and maintained this rate until March 16, 2022. The Federal Reserve Board increased the Federal Funds Target Rate range to 0.25% to 0.50% on March 16, 2022, to 0.75% to 1.00% on May 4, 2022, to 1.50% to 1.75% on June 15, 2022, and has stated it anticipates continuing to raise rates throughout 2022.
The impact of these transactions and events, where material, is discussed in the applicable sections of this MD&A.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Peoples reported net income of $24.9 million for the second quarter of 2022, representing earnings per diluted common share of $0.88. In comparison, Peoples recognized earnings per diluted common share of $0.84 for the first quarter of 2022, and earnings per diluted common share of $0.51 for the second quarter of 2021. Peoples recorded net income of $48.5 million, or $1.72 per diluted common share for the six months ended 2022, compared to $25.6 million, or $1.31 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Non-core items, and the related tax effect of each, in net income primarily included acquisition and COVID-related expenses. Non-core items negatively impacted earnings per diluted common share by $0.02 for the second quarter of 2022, $0.04 for the first quarter of 2022, and $0.10 for the second quarter of 2021. Non-core items negatively impacted earnings per diluted share by $0.06 and $0.21 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Net interest income was $61.5 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $7.2 million, or 13%, compared to the linked quarter. Net interest margin was 3.84% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 3.41% for the linked quarter. The increase in net interest income and net interest margin reflects the positive impact of accretion income, net of amortization expense, coupled with the recent increases in market interest rates, which expanded loan yields by 44 basis points compared to the linked quarter. Net interest income for the second quarter of 2022 increased $21.8 million, or 55%, compared to the second quarter of 2021. Net interest margin increased 39 basis points compared to 3.45% for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2021 was driven by the increases in market interest rates and the acquisitions of Premier and Vantage. For the first six months of 2022, net interest income increased $40.5 million, or 54%, compared to the first six months of 2021, while net interest margin increased 27 basis points to 3.63%. The increase in net interest income was driven by the acquisitions of Premier and Vantage, core growth, and an increase in market interest rates.
Accretion income, net of amortization expense, from acquisitions was $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2022, $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, which added 25 basis points, 17 basis points and 7 basis points, respectively, to net interest margin. The increase in accretion income for the current quarter was a result of the acquisition of Vantage. Accretion income, net of amortization expense, from acquisitions was $6.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which added 21 and 6 basis points, respectively, to net interest margin. The increase in accretion income for the first six months of 2022 compared to 2021 was a result of the acquisitions of NSL, Premier, and Vantage.
The recovery of credit losses was $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to a recovery of credit losses of $6.8 million for the linked quarter and a provision for credit losses of $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2021. The release of credit losses in the second quarter of 2022 was largely attributable to a reduction in reserves for individually analyzed loans coupled with changes in loss drivers. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2022 were $1.5 million, or 0.14% of average total loans annualized, compared to net charge-offs of $1.9 million, or 0.17% of average total loans annualized, for the linked quarter and net charge-offs of $0.8 million, or 0.09% of average total loans annualized, for the second quarter of 2021. For additional information on credit trends and the allowance for credit losses, see the "FINANCIAL CONDITION - Allowance for Credit Losses" section below.
The recovery of credit losses during the first six months of 2022 was $7.6 million, compared to a recovery of credit losses of $1.7 million for the first six months of 2021. Net charge-offs for the first six months of 2022 were $3.5 million, or 0.15% of average total loans annualized, compared to net charge-offs of $1.8 million, or 0.11% annualized, for the first six months of 2021. The recovery of credit losses during the first half of 2022 was primarily due to the impact of economic assumptions used in the CECL model, while the recovery of credit losses during the first half of 2021 was impacted by economic assumptions used in the CECL model, offset by the day-one allowance for credit losses required from the acquisition of NSL in the second quarter of 2021.
Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, for the second quarter of 2022 declined $0.5 million compared to the linked quarter. The decrease in non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, was the result of lower insurance income, which included annual performance-based insurance commissions of $1.3 million that are recognized in the first quarter of each year. The decrease was partially offset by an increase of $0.4 million in bank owned life insurance income, which includes $248,000 recognized on a one-time death benefit and an additional $30.0 million of new investment in bank owned life insurance policies. Compared to the second quarter of 2021, non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, increased $3.4 million. Deposit account service charges increased $1.5 million and electronic banking income increased $1.0 million. The increase in deposit account service charges was primarily attributable to overdraft and NSF fees driven by a larger customer base following the Premier Merger. Electronic banking income increased in the second quarter of 2022 due to an increase in the interchange income earned from customers' debit card usage, driven partially by customers added in the Premier Merger.
For the first six months of 2022, total non-interest income, excluding gains and losses, increased $6.2 million, or 19%, compared to the first six months of 2021. The increase was driven by growth of $3.0 million, or 73%, in deposit account service charges and $2.3 million, or 28%, in electronic banking income.

Total non-interest expense decreased $1.7 million, or 3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the linked quarter. The decrease in total non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2022 was attributable to decreases in professional fees, acquisition-related expenses, net occupancy and equipment expense, and FDIC insurance premiums. Total non-interest expense in the second and first quarter of 2022 also contained non-core expenses, including acquisition-related expenses of $0.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Compared to the second quarter of 2021, total non-interest expense increased $10.0 million, or 25%, primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefit costs of $5.7 million, an increase in net occupancy and equipment expense of $1.5 million, an increase in amortization of intangible assets of $0.7 million, and an increase in FDIC insurance premiums of $0.7 million. Those increases were primarily the result of the Premier Merger and the acquisition of the equipment financing business from Vantage.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, total non-interest expense increased $23.6 million, or 30%, compared to the first six months of 2021. The variance was driven by an increase of $12.6 million in salaries and employee benefits costs, $3.2 million in net occupancy and equipment expense, $1.8 million in amortization of other intangible assets, and $1.5 million in electronic banking expense.
The efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2022 was 58.8%, compared to 66.8% for the linked quarter, and 68.6% for the second quarter of 2021. The change in the efficiency ratio compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to the increases in accretion and market interest rates coupled with decreases in professional fees, acquisition-related expenses, salaries and employee benefits, net occupancy and equipment expense, and FDIC insurance premiums. The efficiency ratio, adjusted for non-core items, was 58.0% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 64.8% for the linked quarter and 64.0% for the second quarter of 2021. The efficiency ratio is typically higher in the first quarter of the year driven by the higher salaries and employee benefit costs, specifically by higher payroll taxes, employer contributions to health savings accounts and stock-based compensation expenses for certain employees. Peoples continues to focus on controlling expenses, while recognizing some necessary costs in order to continue growing the business.
Peoples recorded income tax expense of $6.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to income tax expense of $6.0 million for the linked quarter and income tax expense of $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in income tax expense for the second quarter of 2022, compared to income tax expense for the linked quarter, was due to an increase its pre-tax income and increase in the effective tax rates. The increase in income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, was largely driven by higher pre-tax income and increased effective tax rates.
At June 30, 2022, total assets were $7.28 billion, compared to $7.06 billion at December 31, 2021 and $5.07 billion at June 30, 2021. The growth in total assets of 3% compared to December 31, 2021 was largely attributable to the Vantage acquisition, which added $157.5 million in leases as of the acquisition date. The 44% increase compared to June 30, 2021 was driven primarily by $1.1 billion of loans and $0.6 billion of investment securities added in the Premier Merger as of the merger date, along with leases acquired from Vantage of $157.5 million. The allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2022 decreased to $52.4 million, or 1.14% of total loans, primarily driven by due to continued improvement in economic factors and changes in loss drivers used in the CECL model, compared to $64.0 million and 1.43%, respectively, at December 31, 2021, and $47.9 million and 1.42%, respectively, at June 30, 2021.
Total liabilities were $6.49 billion at June 30, 2022, up from $6.22 billion at December 31, 2021 and $4.48 billion at June 30, 2021. The increase in total liabilities compared to December 31, 2021 was primarily due to increases of $110.8 million in governmental deposit accounts and $43.3 million in savings accounts, and $74.6 million of long-term borrowings assumed from Vantage. Also contributing to the increase compared to June 30, 2021 were $1.82 billion in deposits acquired in the Premier Merger.
Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 2022 decreased by $21.5 million compared to March 31, 2022, which reflected an other comprehensive loss of $30.7 million and dividends paid of $10.8 million, partially offset by net income for the quarter of $24.9 million. Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 2022 decreased by $58.2 million compared to December 31, 2021, which was due to an other comprehensive loss of $81.7 million and dividends paid of $20.9 million, partially offset by net income of $48.5 million for the first six months of 2022. The other comprehensive losses were the result of the changes in the market value of available-for-sale investment securities, which were driven by changes in market interest rates.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the amount by which interest income exceeds interest expense, remains Peoples' largest source of revenue.  The amount of net interest income earned by Peoples each quarter is affected by various factors, including changes in market interest rates due to the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy, the level and degree of pricing competition for loans and deposits in Peoples’ markets, and the amount and composition of Peoples' earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. 
Net interest margin, which is calculated by dividing FTE net interest income by average interest-earning assets, serves as an important measurement of the net revenue stream generated by the volume, mix and pricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  FTE net interest income is calculated by increasing interest income to convert tax-exempt income earned on

obligations of states and political subdivisions and tax-exempt loans to the pre-tax equivalent of taxable income using a blended federal and state corporate income tax rate of 23.3% for 2022 and using a federal corporate income tax rate of 21% for 2021.

(e)Interest related to interest rate swap transactions is included, as appropriate to the transaction, in interest expense on short-term FHLB advances and interest expense on brokered deposits for the periods presented in which FHLB advances and brokered deposits were being utilized.
Peoples' average balances compared to prior periods have been impacted by recent acquisitions, which included: (i) Vantage on March 7, 2022, which added to average lease and borrowed funds balances; (ii) Premier on September 17, 2021, which added to average short-term investments, average total investment securities, average total loans and average total deposits; and (iii) NSL on April 1, 2021, which added to average lease balances. Peoples has maintained high cash balances in recent periods due to an influx of deposits, coupled with PPP proceeds.

Compared to the linked quarter, net interest income increased 13% and net interest margin expanded by 43 basis points. Both increases were driven higher by accretion income from acquisitions and the recent rise in market interest rates. Loan yields grew by

Table of Contents
44 basis points, of which 34 basis points was attributable to higher accretion income. Deposit costs remained stable, while borrowing costs increased by 57 basis points and was mostly related to the acquired borrowings from the Vantage acquisition.
Net interest income grew 55% over the prior year quarter and net interest margin increased 39 basis points. The recent acquisitions have positively impacted net interest income, coupled with organic growth and the increase in market interest rates. During the second quarter of 2022, compared to the prior year quarter, loan yields grew 44 basis points due to the rising interest rate environment, while deposit costs declined 15 basis points driven by a reduction in higher-interest bearing deposits, and borrowing costs increased 82 basis points as a result of the non-recourse debt assumed in the acquisition of Vantage.
For the first half of 2022, net interest income and net interest margin grew 54% and 27 basis points, respectively, compared to 2021. During that same time, loan yields increased 34 basis points, which was partially offset by higher borrowing costs. Net interest income has been positively impacted due to the acquisitions in recent periods. Net interest income and net interest margin both have been negatively impacted by the excess liquidity environment present in the financial services sector since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic by way of increased low yielding cash reserves.
Peoples recognized interest income on deferred loan fees/costs associated with PPP loans of $0.6 million, $1.2 million and $3.4 million during the second and first quarters of 2022 and the second quarter of 2021, respectively, along with $79,000, $154,000, and $0.8 million of interest earned on PPP loans, during the respective periods. For the first half of 2022, interest income recognized on deferred loan fees/costs related to PPP loans was $1.8 million, and interest earned was $232,000, compared to $8.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively, for the first half of 2021. The interest income recognized on PPP loans added 2 basis points, 5 basis points and 15 basis points to net interest margin for the second and first quarters of 2022 and the second quarter of 2021, respectively, while adding 4 basis points and 21 basis points to net interest margin for the first half of 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Accretion income, net of amortization expense, from acquisitions was $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2022, $2.7 million for the linked quarter and $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, which added 25 basis points, 17 basis points and 7 basis points, respectively, to net interest margin. For the first half of 2022, accretion income totaled $6.7 million and added 21 basis points to net interest margin compared to $1.2 million and 6 basis points for the first half of 2021, with the increase from the prior year due to the acquired loans and leases from the Premier Merger and Vantage acquisition, respectively.

(a) Presented on an annualized basis.
The (recovery of) provision for credit losses recorded represents the amount needed to maintain the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses based on management’s quarterly estimates. For the second quarter of 2022, the recovery of credit losses was driven by the reduction in allowance for individually analyzed loans, as well as changes in loss drivers used in the CECL model.
For the first quarter of 2022, the recovery of credit losses was related to an improvement in the economic forecast, along with payoffs of several loans during the quarter, which were partially offset by $387,000 for the establishment of an allowance for credit losses for the non-purchased credit deteriorated leases from the Vantage acquisition.
The provision for credit losses recorded during the second quarter of 2021 was primarily due to the day-one allowance for credit losses of $3.3 million related to the leases acquired from NSL. Excluding leases, the reduction of specific reserves on individually evaluated loans positively impacted the allowance for credit losses for the second quarter of 2021.
For the first half of 2022, the recovery of credit losses was mostly due to improvements in the economic forecast and loss drivers, coupled with releases of allowance for credit losses on individually analyzed loans. For the first six months of 2021, the recovery of credit losses was associated with improved economic forecasts compared to prior periods, which was partially offset by the establishment of the allowance for credit losses for acquired leases.
Additional information regarding changes in the allowance for credit losses and loan credit quality can be found later in this MD&A under the caption “FINANCIAL CONDITION - Allowance for Credit Losses.”

Net (Loss) Gain Included in Total Non-Interest Income
Net (loss) gains includes losses and gains on investment securities, asset disposals and other transactions, which are recognized in total non-interest income. The following table details Peoples’ net losses and gains for the periods presented:

Net loss on other transactions — (104)— (104)— 
Net loss on asset disposals and other transactions$(152)$(127)$(124)$(279)$(151)
Losses on asset disposals and other transactions increased in the second quarter relative to the linked and prior year quarters, driven by losses on repossessed assets, losses on the sale of investment securities and losses on the sale of OREO properties acquired from Premier. During the first three months of 2022, Peoples sold several investment securities, resulting in a net gain on investment securities. This gain was offset by a net loss on other transactions primarily driven by an adjustment to the gain on sale of loans recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021, which was driven by changes to the acquisition-date fair value of Premier loans acquired that were subsequently sold.
During the second quarter of 2021, net loss on other assets was due to a market value write-down of $208,000 related to a closed office that was held for sale, which was partially offset by a net gain of $76,000 on repossessed assets. For the first six months of 2021, net loss on investment securities was recorded due to the sale of investment securities in order to reinvest proceeds into higher yielding investment securities.
Total Non-Interest Income, Excluding Net Gains and Losses
Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, comprised 24% of Peoples' total revenues (defined as net interest income plus total non-interest income excluding net gains and losses) for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 27% for the linked quarter and 29% for the prior year quarter. For the first half of 2022, total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, totaled 26% of total revenues compared to 31% for 2021. The decline in this ratio compared to the prior periods was primarily due to higher net interest income associated with the recent acquisition of Vantage and Premier Merger, coupled with the increase in the market interest rate environment.
For the second quarter of 2022, electronic banking income comprised the largest portion of Peoples' total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses. Peoples' electronic banking ("e-banking") services include ATM and debit cards, direct deposit services, internet and mobile banking, and remote deposit capture, and serve as alternative delivery channels to traditional sales offices for providing services to clients. The following table details Peoples' e-banking income:

E-banking income$5,419 $5,253 $4,418 $10,672 $8,329 
Peoples' e-banking income is derived largely from ATM and debit cards, as other services are mainly provided at no charge to customers. The amount of e-banking income is largely dependent on the timing and volume of customer activity. E-banking income increased compared to the linked quarter primarily due to increased customer activity. Compared to the prior year quarter and first half of 2021, e-banking income grew 23% and 28%, respectively, from increased customer activity, coupled with the addition of the Premier customers during the third quarter of 2021.

Insurance income declined compared to the linked quarter, and was mostly due to the recognition of $1.3 million of annual performance-based insurance commissions recorded during the first quarter of each year. Compared to the prior year quarter, insurance income grew due to additional customers, while the decline compared to the first half of 2021 was driven by lower performance-based commissions.
Peoples' fiduciary income and brokerage income continued to be based primarily upon the value of assets under administration and management, with additional income generated from transaction commissions, cross-selling of products and additional retirement plan services business. The following tables detail Peoples’ trust and investment income and related assets under administration and management:

Trust and investment income$4,246 $4,276 $4,220 $8,522 $8,065 
Fiduciary income and brokerage income were mostly flat in the current quarter relative to the linked quarter, with the timing of brokerage fee income mitigating the decrease in assets under management, and fees for tax preparation and estate services mitigating the decrease in trust assets. An improvement in the values of assets under administration and management, coupled with new accounts added, contributed to the growth in trust and investment income compared to the first half of 2021.

The amount of deposit account service charges, particularly fees for overdrafts and non-sufficient funds, is largely dependent on the timing and volume of customer activity. Management periodically evaluates its cost recovery fees to ensure they are reasonable based on operational costs and similar to fees charged in Peoples' markets by competitors. Deposit account service charges increased compared to the linked quarter, prior year quarter and first half of 2021 due to increased customer activity in recent quarters, compared to the very low levels of early 2021 associated with fiscal stimulus payments and PPP loan proceeds provided to customers, along with changed customer spending habits due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Also contributing to the increase compared to the prior year quarter and first half of 2021 was the additional customers associated with the Premier Merger.

Other non-interest income1,294 1,326 803 2,620 1,461 
Mortgage banking income is comprised mostly of net gains from the origination and sale of real estate loans in the secondary market, and, to a lesser extent, servicing income for loans sold with servicing retained. As a result, the amount of income recognized by Peoples is largely dependent on customer demand and long-term interest rates for residential real estate loans offered in the secondary market. Mortgage banking income declined compared to the linked quarter, prior year quarter and first half of 2021 due to the increased interest rate environment in recent quarters and a lower volume of new loan originations due to the lack of inventory of homes for sale.
In the second quarter of 2022, Peoples sold $4.6 million in loans to the secondary market with servicing retained and $6.1 million in loans with servicing released, compared to $7.2 million and $7.9 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2022, and $15.8 million and $7.8 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2021. For the first half of 2021, Peoples sold $33.0 million in loans to the secondary market with servicing retained, and $17.4 million in servicing released.
Bank owned life insurance income for the current quarter included a $248,000 death benefit related to the cash surrender value of the underlying policy. Peoples also invested an additional $30.0 million in bank owned life insurance policies during the second quarter of 2022. For the first half of 2022, the increased bank owned life insurance income compared to the first half of 2021, was due to the aforementioned death benefit proceeds and additional investment.
Commercial loan swap fees are largely dependent on timing, interest rates, and the volume of customer activity. During the second quarter of 2022, commercial loan swap fees increased as a result of several new commercial loan swaps in the period, driven by the recent increases in interest rates, compared to less activity in the linked and prior year quarter, and first half of 2021.
Other non-interest income was relatively flat compared to the linked quarter. Compared to the prior year quarter and first half of 2021, other non-interest income increased 61% and 79%, respectively, due to fee income recognized with the leasing divisions.
Non-Interest Expense
Salaries and employee benefit costs remain Peoples' largest non-interest expense, accounting for over one-half of total non-interest expense.  The following table details Peoples' salaries and employee benefit costs:

Base salaries and wages increased 4% compared to the linked quarter and increased 36% compared to the second quarter of 2021. The increases for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the linked quarter and the prior year quarter were driven by the additional salaries associated with the acquisition of Vantage, and the Premier Merger, respectively.
The increase in sales-based and incentive compensation for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to sales incentives earned by Vantage employees.

Table of Contents
The decrease in employee benefits for second quarter of 2022, compared to the linked quarter, was primarily due to annual contributions to employee health benefit accounts which occur primary in the first quarter of each year. The increase in employee benefits compared to the second quarter of 2021 was due to higher medical costs with the addition of the Premier and Vantage employees.
Payroll taxes and other employment costs decreased compared to the first quarter of 2022, primarily driven by higher payroll taxes recognized in the first quarter of each year. Those costs increased for the first half of the year relative to the prior year period due to the additional associates retained from the Premier Merger, and North Star and Vantage acquisitions.
Stock-based compensation is generally recognized over the vesting period, which generally ranges from immediate vesting to vesting at the end of three years, adjusted for an estimate of the portion of awards that will be forfeited. At the vesting date, an adjustment is made to increase or reverse expense for the amount of actual forfeitures compared to the estimate. Stock grants to retirement eligible grantees are expensed either immediately or over a shorter period than three years. The majority of Peoples' stock-based compensation is attributable to annual equity-based incentive awards to employees, which are awarded in the first quarter of each year and are based upon Peoples achieving certain performance goals during the prior year. Stock-based compensation for the second quarter of 2022 decreased compared to the linked quarter, which included expense related to stock grants to retirement eligible individuals and the annual vesting of prior stock grants. Stock-based compensation for the first half of the year increased 21% compared to the first half of the prior year due to employees added in the acquisition of Vantage and the Premier Merger.
Deferred personnel costs represent the portion of current period salaries and employee benefit costs considered to be direct loan origination costs.  These costs are capitalized and recognized over the life of the loan as a yield adjustment in interest income.  As a result, the amount of deferred personnel costs for each period corresponds directly with the volume of loan originations, coupled with the average deferred costs per loan that are updated annually at the beginning of each year. Higher deferred personnel costs compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to an increase in loan origination volume.
Peoples' net occupancy and equipment expense was comprised of the following:

Depreciation on capitalized assets declined compared to the linked quarter as a result of certain capitalized assets and improvements reaching the end of their depreciable lives, coupled with lower repairs and maintenance costs from snow removal expenses compared to the first quarter of 2022. Compared to the second quarter and first half of 2021, net occupancy and equipment expense increased 45% and 49%, respectively, with the increases driven by the additional geographic locations from recent acquisitions.

Professional fees decreased $1.4 million from the linked quarter and second quarter of 2021 primarily due to lower acquisition-related expenses. Professional fees for the first half of the year decreased $1.1 million compared to the first half of the prior year, primarily driven by acquisition-related expenses related to the Premier Merger which had been realized in the prior year.

Data processing and software expense increased relative to prior year periods, driven by software upgrades and implementation of new systems, coupled with the increased size of Peoples' organization.
E-banking expense increased compared to the second quarter of 2021 and first half of 2021, and is correlated to e-banking income, which also increased over those same periods.
Amortization of other intangible assets is associated with acquisition-related activity, and grew 19% compared to the linked quarter, due to the Vantage acquisition. Compared to the second quarter of 2021, amortization of other intangible assets increased $0.7 million as Peoples merged with Premier, and acquired Vantage on September 17, 2021 and March 7, 2022, respectively. Amortization of other intangible assets grew 88% versus the first half 2021 due to the Premier Merger, and the acquisitions of North Star and Vantage.
Peoples' FDIC insurance premiums decreased compared to the linked quarter, as Peoples recognized a prior year adjustment in the first quarter relating to its larger assessment base as a result of the liabilities assumed from Premier. FDIC insurance premiums increased compared to the prior year quarter, as Peoples recorded increased premiums after the acquisition of Premier.
Marketing expense declined 14% compared to the linked quarter, and increased 27% versus the prior year quarter. The decrease from the linked quarter was mainly due to a vendor credit related to prior year customer debit card spend. The increase relative to the prior year quarter was driven by higher public relations and media spend associated with the acquisition of Premier, and recent community-based spend in celebration of Peoples' 120th anniversary.
Other loan expenses decreased $0.4 million compared to the linked quarter driven by the timing of the reimbursement of appraisal costs. Compared to the first half of 2021, other loan expenses grew 34% and were mostly related to higher indirect lending volume and increased collection expense driven by the Premier Merger.
Peoples is subject to state franchise taxes, which are based largely on Peoples' equity, in the states where Peoples has a physical presence. Franchise tax expense also includes the Ohio Financial Institution Tax ("FIT"), which is a business privilege tax that is imposed on financial institutions organized for profit and doing business in Ohio. The Ohio FIT is based on the total equity capital in proportion to the taxpayer's gross receipts in Ohio as of the most recent year-end. The increase versus the linked quarter was driven by a credit received in the first quarter of 2022 for an overpayment of the prior year's franchise taxes.
Communications expense increased 68% compared to the second quarter of 2021 and 91% compared to the first half of 2021. The growth relative to those periods was due to upgraded networking to certain branches (including new branches acquired from Premier coupled with the addition of the NSL and Vantage locations acquired) and increased costs compared to the prior periods among certain vendors that provide communication services.
Other non-interest expense increased 33% compared to the prior year quarter and 34% versus the first half of 2021 driven by higher ongoing costs associated with Peoples' recent acquisitions, mostly due to increased postage, travel and entertainment, insurance and supplies expense.
Income Tax Expense
Peoples recorded an income tax expense of $6.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to income tax expense of $6.0 million for the linked quarter and income tax expense of $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in income tax expense for the second quarter of 2022, compared to the linked quarter, was due to an increase in Peoples' effective tax rate driven by an expansion of its footprint associated with the acquisition of Vantage, and higher pre-tax income. The increase in income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, was largely driven by higher pre-tax income.
Additional information regarding income taxes can be found in "Note 13 Income Taxes" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K.
Pre-Provision Net Revenue (Non-US GAAP)
Pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR") has become a key financial measure used by state and federal bank regulatory agencies when assessing the capital adequacy of financial institutions. PPNR is defined as net interest income plus total non-interest income, excluding all gains and losses, minus total non-interest expense. As a result, PPNR represents the earnings capacity that can be either retained in order to build capital or used to absorb unexpected losses and preserve existing capital. This ratio represents a Non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the provision for (recovery of) credit losses and all gains and losses included in earnings.

The increase in PPNR compared to the linked quarter was driven by increased net interest income reflecting the positive impact of recent increase in market interest rates. PPNR grew compared to the second quarter of 2021 and first half of 2021, mostly due to the impact of the Premier Merger and the Vantage and NSL acquisitions improving net interest income, the recent increases in market interest rates, and higher non-interest income.
Core Non-Interest Expense (Non-US GAAP)
Core non-interest expense is a financial measure used to evaluate Peoples' recurring expense stream. This measure is Non-US GAAP since it excludes the impact of all acquisition-related expenses, severance expenses, COVID-19-related expenses and a Peoples Bank Foundation, Inc. contribution.

Efficiency Ratio (Non-US GAAP)
The efficiency ratio is a key financial measure used to monitor performance. The efficiency ratio is calculated as total non-interest expense (less amortization of other intangible assets) as a percentage of fully tax-equivalent net interest income plus total non-interest income excluding net gains and losses. This measure is Non-US GAAP since it excludes amortization of other intangible assets and all gains and losses included in earnings, and uses fully tax-equivalent net interest income.

The efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2022 decreased compared to the linked quarter, due to higher net interest income driven by increases in market interest rates, coupled with decreases in acquisition-related expenses, salaries and employee benefits, and FDIC insurance premiums. The efficiency ratio, adjusted for non-core items, also decreased and the decrease was attributable to the items previously mentioned. Additionally, compared to the second quarter of 2021 and the first half of 2021, the efficiency ratio and adjusted efficiency ratio, both declined due to improvements in net interest income from the recent acquisitions, coupled with higher non-interest income, outpacing increases in total non-interest expense.
Return on Average Assets Adjusted for Non-Core Items Ratio (Non-US GAAP)
In addition to return on average assets, management uses return on average assets adjusted for non-core items to monitor performance. The return on average assets adjusted for non-core items ratio represents a Non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the after-tax impact of all gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, severance expenses, COVID-19-related expenses and a Peoples Bank Foundation, Inc. contribution.

Return on Average Tangible Equity Ratio (Non-US GAAP)
The return on average tangible equity ratio is a key financial measure used to monitor performance. This ratio is calculated as annualized net income (less the after-tax impact of amortization of other intangible assets) divided by average tangible equity. This measure is Non-US GAAP since it excludes amortization of other intangible assets from earnings and the impact of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on total stockholders' equity.

The return on average stockholders' equity and average tangible equity ratios were higher in the current quarter and the first half of 2022 relative to all prior periods, due to higher total net interest income driven by the recent increases in market interest rates and loans and leases added in the Premier Merger and acquisitions of Vantage and NSL, coupled with higher non-interest income. At the same time, the average tangible equity was negatively impacted by the Vantage acquisition, for which People did not issue any equity, and recorded additional goodwill and other intangible assets. Additionally, average tangible equity declined compared to the first quarter of 2022 due to a higher accumulated other comprehensive loss during the second quarter of 2022 as a result of the impact of the interest rate environment on the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At June 30, 2022, Peoples' interest-bearing deposits in other banks had decreased $35.2 million from December 31, 2021. Peoples paid $82.9 million in cash for the Vantage acquisition during the first quarter of 2022. The total cash and cash equivalents balance included $297.4 million of excess cash reserves being maintained at the FRB of Cleveland at June 30, 2022, compared to $318.1 million at December 31, 2021. The amount of excess cash reserves maintained is dependent upon Peoples' daily liquidity position, which is driven primarily by changes in deposit and loan balances.
Through the first six months of 2022, Peoples' total cash and cash equivalents decreased $17.3 million as Peoples had net cash used in investing activities of $196.0 million, which more than offset cash provided by financing activities of $116.0 million and by operating activities of $62.7 million. Peoples' investing activities reflected purchases of available-for-sale investment securities totaling $233.1 million, cash outflows for business combinations of $85.8 million, net of a decrease in loans held for investment of $70.9 million and proceeds from principal payments, calls and prepayments of available-for-sale investment securities of $112.8 million. The cash provided by financing activities was largely driven by increases in short-term borrowings of $154.9 million, and in interest-bearing deposits of $46.5 million, the latter of which was driven by higher governmental deposits, which are seasonal in nature.
Further information regarding the management of Peoples' liquidity position can be found later in this discussion under “Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity.”

For the first quarter of 2022, total investment securities increased compared to the prior quarter, largely due to investments made in U.S. Treasury and government agencies' obligations, in an effort to deploy cash, improve investment yields and reduce risk, partially offset by the reduction in market value of available-for-sale securities driven by the recent increases in market interest rates.

Table of Contents
Period-end total loan balances at June 30, 2022 increased $28.8 million compared to March 31, 2022, and were driven by increases of $38.3 million in consumer indirect loans and $47.4 million in leases, $15.5 million of which related to a purchase accounting adjustment on the Vantage portfolio, partially offset by a reduction in construction loans of $35.7 million. The acquired loan decrease was driven by payoffs of commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans in the Premier Merger.
The increase in loans at September 30, 2021, compared to June 30, 2021, was primarily due to the Premier Merger, which added $1.1 billion in loans. The increase in leases from December 31, 2021 to March 31,2022, was driven by leases acquired from Vantage.
Loan Concentration
Peoples categorizes its commercial loans according to standard industry classifications and monitors for concentrations in a single industry or multiple industries that could be impacted by changes in economic conditions in a similar manner. Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to be spread over a diverse range of businesses from all sectors of the economy, with no single industry comprising over 10% of Peoples' total loan portfolio.
Loans secured by commercial real estate, including commercial construction loans, continued to comprise the largest portion of Peoples' loan portfolio. The following tables provide information regarding the largest concentrations of commercial construction loans and commercial real estate loans within the loan portfolio at June 30, 2022:

(a) All other outstanding balances are less than 2% of the total loan portfolio.
Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to focus on lending opportunities within Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, Washington, D.C. and Maryland. In all other states, the aggregate outstanding balances of commercial loans in each state were less than 4% of total loans at both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The repayment of premium finance loans are secured by the underlying insurance policy prepaid premium, and therefore, have no geographical impact from a repayment perspective. The repayment of leases is secured by the underlying equipment collateral and not real estate, which mitigates geographic risk.
Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program
In March 2020, the CARES Act created the PPP targeted to provide small businesses with support to cover payroll and certain other specified expenses. Loans made under the PPP are fully guaranteed by the SBA. The PPP loans also afford borrowers forgiveness up to the principal amount of the PPP covered loan, plus accrued interest, if the loan proceeds are used to retain workers

and maintain payroll and/or to make certain mortgage interest, lease and utility payments, and certain other criteria are satisfied. The SBA will reimburse PPP lenders for any amount of a PPP covered loan that is forgiven, and PPP lenders will not be held liable for any representations made by PPP borrowers in connection with their requests for loan forgiveness.
Peoples is a PPP participating lender, and the PPP loans originated are included in commercial and industrial loans. Peoples also recorded deferred loan origination fees related to the PPP loans, net of deferred loan origination costs, which will be amortized over the life of the respective loans, or until forgiven by the SBA, and will be recognized in net interest income. The following tables detail Peoples' PPP loans and related income:

Allowance for Credit Losses
The amount of the allowance for credit losses at the end of each period represents management's estimate of expected losses from existing loans based upon its quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio. While this process involves allocations being made to specific loans and pools of loans, the entire allowance is available for all losses expected within the loan portfolio.
The following details management's allocation of the allowance for credit losses:

The allowance for credit losses declined at June 30, 2022 compared to March 31, 2022, as a result of improved loss drivers and releases related to individually analyzed loans. The reduction in the allowance for credit losses compared to December 31, 2021 was due to improvements in economic forecasts and loss drivers, along with reductions in loan balances from acquired loans due to payoffs during the quarter. Peoples recorded $387,000 of provision for credit losses during the first quarter of 2022 to establish the allowance for credit losses for non-purchase credit deteriorated leases acquired from Vantage.
The increase in the allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2021, compared to June 30, 2021, was related to the provision for credit losses recorded in the amount of $11.0 million in order to establish an allowance for credit losses for non-purchased credit deteriorated loans of $10.6 million, and a liability for unfunded commitments of $0.4 million, both relating to the Premier Merger. Peoples also recorded a $22.3 million increase in the allowance for credit losses during the third quarter of 2021 related to the purchased credit deteriorated loans acquired from Premier.
Additional information regarding Peoples' allowance for credit losses can be found in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K and "Note 4 Loans and Leases" of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Compared to March 31, 2022, Peoples' NPAs declined to 0.64%, from 0.65%, with the reduction primarily attributable to a reduction in nonaccrual commercial and industrial loans offset by an increase in past due leases. Loans 90+ days past due and accruing increased compared to December 31, 2021, mostly due to the Vantage acquisition. During the second quarter of 2022, criticized loans, which are those categorized as special mention, substandard or doubtful, declined $8.9 million, while classified loans, which are those categorized as substandard or doubtful, grew $6.0 million.
During the third quarter of 2021, nonperforming assets, criticized and classified loans increased due to the Premier Merger.
On March 22, 2020, federal and state government banking regulators issued a joint statement, with which the FASB concurred as to the approach, regarding accounting for loan modifications for borrowers affected by COVID-19. In this guidance, short-term modifications, made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19, to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not considered TDRs. This includes short-term modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment which are insignificant. Under the guidance, borrowers that are considered to be current are those that were less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. In addition, modification or deferral programs mandated by the U.S. federal government or any state government related to COVID-19 are not TDRs within the scope of ASC 310-40.
On August 3, 2020, federal and state banking regulators issued a joint statement, encouraging financial institutions to consider prudent accommodation options to mitigate losses for the borrower and financial institution beyond the initial accommodation period. In this guidance, institutions should also provide consumers with available options for repaying missed payments at the end of their accommodation to avoid delinquencies, as well as options for changes to terms to support sustainable and affordable payments for the long term. These considerations should also include prudent risk management practices at the financial institution based on the credit risk of the borrower. Peoples is actively working with its customers to address any further accommodation needs while carefully evaluating the associated credit risk of the borrowers.

(a)The sum of amounts presented is considered total demand deposits.
At June 30, 2022, period-end deposits decreased $73.7 million, or 1%, compared to March 31, 2022, and increased $1.7 billion, or 40%, compared to June 30, 2021. The decrease was driven by a decline in interest bearing transaction accounts of $36.2 million, a decrease in retail certificates of deposits of $28.7 million, and a decrease of $11.0 million in money market deposit accounts. The increase in total deposits at September 30, 2021, compared to June 30, 2021, was driven by deposits acquired from Premier. Total deposits in periods presented through March 31, 2022, were higher due to customers maintaining larger balances, as a result of PPP loan proceeds, fiscal stimulus payments and changes in customer spending habits in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. In quarterly periods prior to June 30, 2022, Peoples experienced increases in most low-cost deposit categories.
Peoples reduced its reliance on brokered deposits in each quarterly period, beginning after June 30, 2021. This decline was largely due to the increase in deposit balances from customers, which allowed Peoples to reduce its position in the higher-cost brokered CDs during each period. As part of its funding strategy, Peoples hedges 90-day brokered deposits with interest rate swaps. The swaps pay a fixed rate of interest while receiving three-month LIBOR, which offsets the rate on the brokered deposits. As of June 30, 2022, Peoples had thirteen effective interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $125.0 million, of which $85.0 million were designated as cash flow hedges of overnight brokered deposits, which are expected to be extended every 90 days through the maturity dates of the swaps. The remaining $40.0 million of interest rate swaps hedged 90-day FHLB advances, which are also expected to be extended every 90 days through the maturity dates of the swaps. Peoples continually evaluates the overall balance sheet position given the interest rate environment.

Borrowed funds, in total, which include overnight borrowings, are mainly a function of loan growth and changes in total deposit balances. Borrowed funds increased compared to March 31, 2022, driven by a large individual customer deposit, thereby increasing retail repurchase agreements at June 30, 2022. The increase in total borrowed funds at September 30, 2021, compared to June 30, 2021, was primarily due to the addition of $63.8 million retail repurchase agreements from Premier.

Capital/Stockholders’ Equity
At June 30, 2022, capital levels for both Peoples and Peoples Bank remained substantially higher than the minimum amounts needed to be considered "well capitalized" institutions under applicable banking regulations. These higher capital levels reflect Peoples' desire to maintain a strong capital position. In order to avoid limitations on dividends, equity repurchases and compensation, Peoples must exceed the three minimum required ratios by at least the capital conservation buffer of 2.50%, which applies to the common equity tier 1 ("CET1") ratio, the tier 1 capital ratio and the total risk-based capital ratio. At June 30, 2022, Peoples had a capital conservation buffer of 4.81%.

Peoples' regulatory capital and related ratio levels improved during the second quarter of 2022 driven by higher net interest income. The ratios were negatively impacted in the prior quarter by the cash acquisition of Vantage, for which Peoples recorded goodwill and intangible assets for which the impact was partially offset by net income exceeding dividends declared during the period. Regulatory capital ratios increased as of September 30, 2021, compared to June 30, 2021, due to the Premier Merger, which included an equity issuance of $261.9 million.
In addition to traditional capital measurements, management uses tangible capital measures to evaluate the adequacy of Peoples' stockholders' equity. Such ratios represent Non-US GAAP financial measures since their calculation removes the impact of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on amounts reported in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Management believes this information is useful to investors since it facilitates the comparison of Peoples' operating performance, financial condition and trends to peers, especially those without a similar level of intangible assets to that of Peoples. Further, intangible assets generally are difficult to convert into cash, especially during a financial crisis, and could decrease substantially in value should there be deterioration in the overall franchise value. As a result, tangible equity represents a conservative measure of the capacity for Peoples to incur losses but remain solvent.

Tangible book value per common share declined to $16.21 at June 30, 2022, compared to $16.39 at March 31, 2022. The change in tangible book value per common share was due to tangible equity declining as a result of other comprehensive losses recognized on available-for-sale investment securities, which were driven by changes in market interest rates. Also contributing to the decline compared to December 31, 2021, was a $81.7 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The increase in tangible equity to tangible assets at September 30, 2021, was attributable to the Premier Merger, and related equity issued.
Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity
While Peoples is exposed to various business risks, the risks relating to interest rate sensitivity and liquidity are major risks that can materially impact future results of operations and financial condition due to their complexity and dynamic nature. The objective of Peoples' asset-liability management function is to measure and manage these risks in order to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent capital adequacy, liquidity and safety. This objective requires Peoples to focus on interest rate risk exposure and adequate liquidity through its management of the mix of assets and liabilities, their related cash flows and the rates earned and paid on those assets and liabilities. Ultimately, the asset-liability management function is intended to guide management in the acquisition and disposition of earning assets and selection of appropriate funding sources.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk ("IRR") is one of the most significant risks arising in the normal course of business of financial services companies like Peoples. IRR is the potential for economic loss due to future interest rate changes that can impact the earnings stream, as well as market values, of financial assets and liabilities. Peoples' exposure to IRR is due primarily to differences in the maturity or repricing of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, other factors, such as prepayments of loans and investment securities, or early withdrawal of deposits, can affect Peoples' exposure to IRR and increase interest costs or reduce revenue streams.
Peoples has assigned overall management of IRR to its Asset-Liability Committee (the “ALCO”), which has established an IRR management policy that sets minimum requirements and guidelines for monitoring and managing the level of IRR. The methods used by the ALCO to assess IRR remain largely unchanged from those disclosed in Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K.

(100)(16,168)(6.4)%(8,615)(4.1)%(58,315)(4.2)%(91,568)(7.4)%
Estimated changes in net interest income and the economic value of equity are partially driven by assumptions regarding the rate at which non-maturity deposits will reprice given a move in short-term interest rates, as well as assumptions regarding prepayment speeds on mortgage-backed securities. These and other modeling assumptions are monitored closely by Peoples on an ongoing basis.
With respect to investment prepayment speeds, the assumptions used are the results of a third-party prepayment model which projects the rate at which the underlying mortgages will prepay. These prepayment speeds affect the amount forecasted for cash flow reinvestment, premium amortization, and discount accretion assumed in interest rate risk modeling results. This prepayment activity is generally the result of refinancing activity and tends to increase as longer term interest rates decline, and decrease as interest rates increase. The assumptions in the interest rate risk model could be incorrect, leading to either a lesser or greater impact on net interest income or asset duration.
While parallel interest rate shock scenarios are useful in assessing the level of IRR inherent in the balance sheet, interest rates typically move in a nonparallel manner with differences in the timing, direction and magnitude of changes in short-term and long-term interest rates. Thus, any benefit that might occur as a result of the Federal Reserve increasing short-term interest rates in the future could be offset by an inverse movement in long-term rates, and vice versa. For this reason, Peoples considers other interest rate scenarios in addition to analyzing the impact of parallel yield curve shifts. These include various flattening and steepening scenarios in which short-term and long-term rates move in different directions with varying magnitude. Peoples believes these scenarios to be more reflective of how interest rates change versus the severe parallel rate shocks described above. Given the shape of market yield curves at June 30, 2022, consideration of the bear steepener and bull flattener scenarios provides insights which were not captured by parallel shifts. These scenarios were evaluated as the current environment suggests these may be possible outcomes for the trajectory of interest rates.
The bear steepener scenario highlights the risk to net interest income and the economic value of equity when short-term rates remain constant while long-term rates rise. In such a scenario, Peoples' deposit and borrowing costs, which are generally correlated with short-term rates, remain constant, while asset yields, which are correlated with long-term rates, rise. Increased asset yields would not be offset by increases in deposit or funding costs; resulting in an increased amount of net interest income and higher net interest margin. At June 30, 2022, the bear steepener scenario resulted in an increase in both net interest income and the economic value of equity of 0.1% and 2.9%, respectively.
The bull flattener scenario highlights the risk to net interest income and the economic value of equity when short-term rates remain constant while long-term rates fall. In such a scenario, Peoples’ deposit and borrowing costs, which are correlated with short-term rates, remain constant while asset yields, which are correlated with long-term rates, fall. Asset yields driven lower by increased investment securities premium amortization would not be offset by reductions in deposit or funding costs; resulting in a decreased amount of net interest income and lower net interest margin. At June 30, 2022, the bull flattener scenario resulted in small decreases in net interest income and the economic value of equity of -0.1% and -0.1%, respectively. Peoples was within its policy limitations for this alternative scenario as of June 30, 2022, which set the maximum allowable downside exposure as 5.0% of net interest income and 10.0% of economic value of equity.
Peoples has entered into interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Peoples making fixed payments. As of June 30, 2022, Peoples had entered into thirteen interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional value of $125.0 million. Additional information regarding Peoples’ interest rate swaps can be found in “Note 10 Derivative Financial Instruments” of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
At June 30, 2022, Peoples' Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet was positioned to benefit from rising interest rates in terms of the potential impact on net interest income. The table above illustrates this point as changes to net interest income increase in the rising rate scenarios. While the heavy concentration of floating rate loans remains the largest contributor to the level of asset sensitivity, the decrease in economic value of equity asset sensitivity, as measured, from December 31, 2021 was largely attributable to increased effective duration in the investment securities portfolio.

Liquidity
In addition to IRR management, another major objective of the ALCO is to maintain a sufficient level of liquidity. The methods used by the ALCO to monitor and evaluate the adequacy of Peoples Bank's liquidity position remain unchanged from those disclosed in Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K.
At June 30, 2022, Peoples Bank had liquid assets of $383.4 million, which represented 4.7% of total assets and unfunded loan commitments. Peoples also had an additional $248.0 million of unpledged investment securities not included in the measurement of liquid assets.
Management believes the current balance of cash and cash equivalents, anticipated investment portfolio cash flows and the availability of other funding sources, will allow Peoples to meet anticipated cash obligations, as well as special needs and off-balance sheet commitments.
Off-Balance Sheet Activities and Contractual Obligations
In the normal course of business, Peoples is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk necessary to meet the financing needs of Peoples' customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contract amounts of these instruments express the extent of involvement Peoples has in these financial instruments.
Loan Commitments and Standby Letters of Credit
Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of Peoples' customers. Standby letters of credit are instruments issued by Peoples Bank guaranteeing the beneficiary payment by Peoples Bank in the event of default by Peoples Bank's customer in the performance of an obligation or service. Historically, most loan commitments and standby letters of credit expire unused. Peoples Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counter-party to the financial instrument for loan commitments and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Peoples Bank uses the same underwriting standards in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The amount of collateral obtained is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.
Peoples Bank routinely engages in activities that involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These activities are part of Peoples Bank's normal course of business and include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments, interest rate contracts and commitments to make additional capital contributions in low-income housing tax credit investments. Traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments continue to represent the most significant off-balance sheet exposure.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Peoples' management, with the participation of Peoples' President and Chief Executive Officer and Peoples’ Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, has evaluated the effectiveness of Peoples’ disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2022.  Based upon that evaluation, Peoples’ President and Chief Executive Officer and Peoples’ Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have concluded that:
(a)information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be accumulated and communicated to Peoples’ management, including its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure;
(b)information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and
(c)as previously disclosed within "ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES" of Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K, Peoples did not design effective controls supporting acquired purchased credit deteriorated loan accounting and the related allowance for credit losses aggregated to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting; and
(d)as part of Peoples' efforts to remediate the material weakness described above, new controls and procedures have been designed and are in process of being implemented. Therefore, Peoples' President and Chief Executive Officer, and its Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, Peoples' disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Despite the foregoing, Management has concluded the financial statements fairly present in all material respects, Peoples' financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in conformity with US GAAP.
 Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The remediation activities described above, and discussed in further detail in "ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES" of Peoples' 2021 Form 10-K and under "ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS" in Part II of Peoples' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2022, are changes in Peoples' internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during Peoples' fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022. These changes may materially affect, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Peoples’ internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of their respective businesses or operations, Peoples or one of its subsidiaries may be named as a plaintiff, a defendant, or a party to a legal proceeding or any of their respective properties may be subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings and various actual and potential claims.  In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, Peoples cannot state what the eventual outcome of any such matters will be. However, based on management's current knowledge and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of Peoples.
