(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Presentation
Colony Bankcorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a bank holding company located in Fitzgerald, Georgia. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Colony Bank, Fitzgerald, Georgia (the “Bank”). The “Company” or “our,” as used herein, includes Colony Bank, except where the context requires otherwise.
In July 2019, a new subsidiary of the Company was incorporated under the name Colony Risk Management, Inc. Colony Risk Management, Inc. is a subsidiary of the Company and is located in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is a captive insurance subsidiary which insures various liability and property damage policies for the Company and its related subsidiaries. Colony Risk Management is regulated by the State of Nevada Division of Insurance.
All adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements, have been included and fairly and accurately present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles and practices utilized in the commercial banking industry for interim financial information and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information or notes required for complete financial statements.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“2021 Form 10-K”).
Nature of Operations
The Bank provides a full range of retail, commercial and mortgage banking services for consumers and small- to medium-size businesses located primarily in central, south and coastal Georgia. The Bank is headquartered in Fitzgerald, Georgia with banking and mortgage offices in Albany, Ashburn, Athens, Broxton, Centerville, Columbus, Cordele, Douglas, Eastman, Fitzgerald, LaGrange, Leesburg, Macon, Moultrie, Quitman, Rochelle, Savannah, Soperton, Statesboro, Sylvester, Tifton, Valdosta and Warner Robins. Lending and investing activities are funded primarily by deposits gathered through its retail banking office network.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans and fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including goodwill impairment.
Reclassifications
In certain instances, amounts reported in prior years’ consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to statement presentations selected for 2022. Such reclassifications have not materially affected previously reported stockholders’ equity or net income.
Adjustments
A goodwill adjustment was made within the one year period allowed after the acquisition for $4,000 related to deferred taxes.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
Concentrations of credit risk can exist in relation to individual borrowers or groups of borrowers, certain types of collateral, certain types of industries, or certain geographic regions. The Company has a concentration in real estate loans as well as a geographic concentration that could pose an adverse credit risk. At March 31, 2022, approximately 87% of the Company’s loan portfolio was concentrated in loans secured by real estate. A substantial portion of borrowers’ ability to honor their contractual obligations is dependent upon the viability of the real estate economic sector. Management continues to monitor these concentrations and has considered these concentrations in its allowance for loan loss analysis.
The success of the Company is dependent, to a certain extent, upon the economic conditions in the geographic markets it serves. Adverse changes in the economic conditions in these geographic markets would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The operating results of the Company depend primarily on its net interest income. Accordingly, operations are subject to risks and uncertainties surrounding the exposure to changes in the interest rate environment.
At times, the Company may have cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions in excess of federal deposit insurance limits. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions whose credit ratings are monitored by management to minimize credit risk.
Changes in Accounting Principles and Effects of New Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). This ASU sets forth a “current expected credit loss” ("CECL") model which requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supported forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost and applies to some off-balance sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On October 16, 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") voted to extend the delay of the effective date of this ASU for smaller reporting companies, such as the Company, until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is in the process of working with a third party vendor using their software solution to assist with adoption. The Company is also currently gathering necessary data to implement this change and is continuing to assess the impact of the adoption of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments are effective for the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The provisions of ASU 2020-04 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company transferred certain agency-issued securities from the available-for-sale to held-to-maturity portfolio on January 1, 2022 having a book value of approximately $320.1 million and a market value of approximately $309.7 million. As of the date of transfer, the related pre-tax net unrecognized losses of approximately $10.4 million within the accumulated other comprehensive loss balance are being amortized over the remaining term of the securities using the effective interest method. This transfer was completed after careful consideration of the Company’s intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. Factors used in assessing the ability to hold these securities to maturity were future liquidity needs and sources of funding.
The amortized cost and fair value of investment securities as of March 31, 2022, by contractual maturity, are shown hereafter. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities for certain investments because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. This is often the case with mortgage-backed securities,

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
At March 31, 2022, there were 343 available-for-sale securities and 77 held-to-maturity securities that had unrealized losses. These securities are guaranteed by either the U.S. Government, other governments or U.S. corporations. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. As management has the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future if classified as available-for-sale, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

Commercial and industrial loans are extended to a diverse group of businesses within the Company’s market area. These loans are often underwritten based on the borrower’s ability to service the debt from income from the business. Real estate construction loans often require loan funds to be advanced prior to completion of the project. Due to uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs, changes in interest rates and other economic conditions, these loans often pose a higher risk than other types of loans. Consumer loans are originated at the Bank level.
Credit Quality Indicators. As part of the ongoing monitoring of the credit quality of the loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (1) the risk grade assigned to commercial and consumer loans, (2) the level of classified commercial loans, (3) net charge-offs, (4) nonperforming loans, and (5) the general economic conditions in the Company’s geographic markets.
The Company uses a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 10. A description of the general characteristics of the grades is as follows:
Grades 1, 2 and 3 - Borrowers with these assigned risk grades range from virtual absence of risk to minimal risk. Such loans may be secured by Company-issued and controlled certificates of deposit or properly margined equity securities or bonds. Other loans comprising these grades are made to companies that have been in existence for a long period of time with many years of consecutive profits and strong equity, good liquidity, excellent debt service ability and unblemished past performance, or to exceptionally strong individuals with collateral of unquestioned value that fully secures the loans. Loans in this category fall into the “pass” classification.
Grades 4 and 5 - Loans assigned these “pass” risk grades are made to borrowers with acceptable credit quality and risk. The risk ranges from loans with no significant weaknesses in repayment capacity and collateral protection to acceptable loans with one or more risk factors considered to be more than average. These loans are also included in into the “pass” classification.

14

COLONY BANKCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Grade 6 - This grade includes “special mention” loans on management’s watch list and is intended to be used on a temporary basis for pass grade loans where risk-modifying action is intended in the short-term.
Grades 7 and 8 - These grades includes “substandard” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines. This category includes borrowers with well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the payment of the debt in accordance with the agreed terms. Loans considered to be impaired are assigned grade 8, and these loans often have assigned loss allocations as part of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Generally, loans on which interest accrual has been stopped would be included in this grade.
Grades 9 and 10 - These grades correspond to regulatory classification definitions of “doubtful” and “loss,” respectively. In practice, any loan with these grades would be for a very short period of time, and generally the Company has no loans with these assigned grades. Management manages the Company’s problem loans in such a way that uncollectible loans or uncollectible portions of loans are charged off immediately with any residual, collectible amounts assigned a risk grade of 7 or 8. 
The following table presents the loan portfolio, excluding purchased loans, by credit quality indicator (risk grade) as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Those loans with a risk grade of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 have been combined in the pass column for presentation purposes.

A loan’s risk grade is assigned at loan origination and is based on the financial strength of the borrower and the type of collateral. Loan risk grades are subject to review at various times throughout the year as part of the Company’s ongoing loan review process. Loans with an assigned risk grade of six or below and an outstanding balance of $250,000 or more are reassessed on a quarterly basis. During this reassessment process individual reserves may be identified and placed against certain loans which are not considered impaired.
In assessing the overall economic condition of the markets in which it operates, the Company monitors the unemployment rates for its major service areas. The unemployment rates are reviewed on a quarterly basis as part of the allowance for loan loss determination.
Loans are placed on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days past due or when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory guidelines. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
The restructuring of a loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") if both the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company has granted a concession to the terms of the loan. Concessions may include interest rate reductions to below market interest rates, principal forgiveness, restructuring amortization schedules and other actions intended to minimize potential losses.
As discussed in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, which are included in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K, once a loan is identified as a TDR, it is accounted for as an impaired loan. The Company had no unfunded commitments to lend to a customer that has a troubled debt restructured loan as of March 31, 2022. The Company had no loans restructured during the three month period ended March 31, 2022. Loans modified in a TDR are considered to be in default once the loan becomes 90 days past due. A TDR may cease being classified as impaired if the loan is subsequently modified at market terms and, has performed according to the modified terms for at least six months, and there has not been any prior principal forgiveness on a cumulative basis.
The Company had no loans that subsequently defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

The following tables detail activity in the allowance for loan losses, segregated by class of loan, for the three month periods ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other loan categories and periodically may result in reallocation within the provision categories.

Management continually evaluates the allowance for loan losses methodology seeking to refine and enhance this process as appropriate, and it is likely that the methodology will continue to evolve over time.
The Company determines its individual reserves during its quarterly review of substandard loans. This process involves reviewing all loans with a risk grade of 6 or greater and an outstanding balance of $250,000 or more, regardless of the loans impairment classification.

(5) Borrowings
The following table presents information regarding the Company’s outstanding borrowings at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) have maturities ranging from 2023 to 2029 and interest rates ranging from 1.01% to 3.51%. As collateral on the outstanding FHLB advances, the Company has provided a blanket lien on its portfolio of qualifying residential first mortgage loans, commercial loans, multifamily loans and HELOC loans. At March 31,

COLONY BANKCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
2022, the lendable collateral of those loans pledged is $93.2 million. At March 31, 2022, the Company had remaining credit availability from the FHLB of $619.3 million. The Company may be required to pledge additional qualifying collateral in order to utilize the full amount of the remaining credit line.
On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into two borrowing arrangements with a correspondent bank for $10.0 million each. The term note is secured by the Bank’s stock, expiring on May 1, 2024, and bears a fixed interest rate of 4.70%. The line of credit is also secured by the Bank’s stock, expiring on July 30, 2022, and bears a variable interest rate of Wall Street Journal Prime minus 0.40%.The proceeds were used for the acquisition of LBC Bancshares, Inc. and its subsidiary, Calumet Bank. As of March 31, 2022, the term note and the line of credit were closed and had zero balances, as both were paid off with the proceeds from the Company's public offering of its common stock completed on February 10, 2022. At December 31, 2021 the outstanding balances of the term note and the line of credit totaled $7.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively.
The Company's debentures issued in connection with trust preferred securities are recorded as subordinated debentures on the consolidated balance sheets, but, subject to certain limitations, qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $24.2 million of debentures underlying trust preferred securities were outstanding. The proceeds from the offerings were used to fund certain acquisitions, pay off holding company debt and inject capital into the bank subsidiary. The debentures underlying the trust preferred securities require quarterly interest payments.
The aggregate stated maturities of other borrowed money at March 31, 2022 are as follows:

The Company also has available federal funds lines of credit with various financial institutions totaling $53.0 million, none of which were outstanding at March 31, 2022.
The Company has the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) of Atlanta utilizing the discount window. The discount window is an instrument of monetary policy that allows eligible institutions to borrow money from the FRB on a short-term basis to meet temporary liquidity shortages caused by internal or external disruptions. At March 31, 2022, the Company had borrowing capacity available under this arrangement, with no outstanding balances. The Company would be required to pledge certain available-for-sale investment securities as collateral under this agreement.

(7) Commitments and Contingencies
Credit-Related Financial Instruments. The Company is a party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include cash or cash equivalents, negotiable instruments, real estate, accounts receivable, inventory, oil, gas and mineral interests, property, plant, and equipment.
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 the following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:  
Contract Amount
(dollars in thousands)March 31, 2022December 31, 2021
Loan commitments$374,598 $318,853 
Letters of credit5,040 4,869 
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

25

COLONY BANKCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Unfunded commitments under commercial lines of credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These lines of credit are uncollateralized and usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed.
Standby and performance letters of credit are conditional lending commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. Essentially all letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
Legal Contingencies. In the ordinary course of business, there are various legal proceedings pending against the Company and the Bank. As of March 31, 2022, the aggregate liabilities, if any, arising from such proceedings would not, in the opinion of management, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position.

(8) Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting standards in the U.S. require disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The assumptions used in the estimation of the fair value of the Company and the Bank’s financial instruments are detailed hereafter. Where quoted prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted cash flows and other valuation techniques. The use of discounted cash flows can be significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows.
Generally accepted accounting principles related to Fair Value Measurements define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1          inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2          inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3          inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and represent the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
The following disclosures should not be considered a surrogate of the liquidation value of the Company, but rather a good-faith estimate of the increase or decrease in value of financial instruments held by the Company since purchase, origination or issuance.
Cash and short-term investments – For cash, due from banks, bank-owned deposits and federal funds sold, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value and is classified as Level 1.
Investment securities – Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices where available and classified as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments and classified as Level 2. If a comparable is not available, the investment securities are classified as Level 3.
Other investments, at cost– The fair value of other bank stock approximates carrying value and is classified as Level 2. Fair values for investment funds are based on quoted market prices where available and classified as Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments and classified as Level 2 If a comparable is not available, the investment securities are classified as Level 3.

26

COLONY BANKCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Loans held for sale – The fair value of loans held for sale is determined on outstanding commitments from third party investors in the secondary markets and is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Loans – The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings. For variable rate loans, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Most loans are classified as Level 3.
Deposit liabilities – The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date and is classified as Level 2. The fair value of deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities and is classified as Level 2.
Federal Home Loan Bank advances– The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar advances would be obtained. Federal Home Loan Bank advances are classified as Level 2.
Other borrowings – The fair value of other borrowings is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows using an estimated interest rate based on current rates available to the Company for debt of similar remaining maturities and collateral terms. Other borrowings is classified as Level 2 due to their expected maturities.
Disclosures of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis, are required in the financial statements.

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

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:
Securities – Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 inputs include securities that have quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Examples of such instruments, which would generally be classified within level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, include certain collateralized mortgage and debt obligations and certain high-yield debt securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. When measuring fair value, the valuation techniques available under the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach are used. The Company’s evaluations are based on market data and the Company employs combinations of these approaches for its valuation methods depending on the asset class.
Impaired Loans – Impaired loans are those loans which the Company has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Other Real Estate Owned – Other real estate owned assets are adjusted to fair value less estimated selling costs upon transfer of the loans to other real estate owned. Typically, an external, third-party appraisal is performed on the collateral upon transfer into the other real estate owned account to determine the asset’s fair value. Subsequent adjustments to the collateral’s value may be based upon either updated third-party appraisals or management’s knowledge of the collateral and the current real estate market conditions. Appraised amounts used in determining the asset’s fair value, whether internally or externally prepared, are discounted 10% to account for selling and marketing costs. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Because of the high degree of judgment required in estimating the fair value of other real estate owned assets and because of the relationship between fair value and general economic conditions, we consider the fair value of other real estate owned assets to be highly sensitive to changes in market conditions.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring and Nonrecurring Basis – The following table presents the recorded amount of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall. The table below includes only impaired loans with a specific reserve and only other real estate properties with a valuation allowance at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Those impaired loans and other real estate properties are shown net of the related specific reserves and valuation allowances.

(9) Segment Information
The Company’s operating segments include banking, mortgage banking and small business specialty lending division. The reportable segments are determined by the products and services offered, and internal reporting. The Bank segment derives its revenues from the delivery of full-service financial services, including retail and commercial banking services and deposit accounts. The Mortgage Banking segment derives its revenues from the origination and sales of residential mortgage loans held for sale. The Small Business Specialty Lending Division segment derives its revenue from the origination, sales and servicing of Small Business Administration loans and other government guaranteed loans. Segment performance is evaluated using net interest income and noninterest income. Income taxes are allocated based on income before income taxes, and indirect expenses (includes management fees) are allocated based on various internal factors for each segment. Transactions among segments are made at fair value. Information reported internally for performance assessment follows. The following tables present information reported internally for performance assessment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

(10) Regulatory Capital Matters
The amount of dividends payable to the parent company from the subsidiary bank is limited by various banking regulatory agencies. Upon approval by regulatory authorities, the Bank may pay cash dividends to the parent company in excess of regulatory limitations.
The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and, possibly, additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.  As of March 31, 2022, the interim final Basel III rules (“Basel III”) require the Company to also maintain minimum amounts and ratios of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets.  These amounts and ratios as defined in regulations are presented hereafter.  Management believes, as of March 31, 2022, the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  In the opinion of management, there are no events or conditions since prior notification of capital adequacy from the regulators that have changed the institution’s category.
The Basel III rules also require the implementation of a new capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital.  The capital conservation buffer was phased in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increase each subsequent year by 0.625% until reaching its final level of 2.5% on January 1, 2019.
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve raised the threshold for determining applicable of the Small Bank Holding Company and Savings and Loan Company Policy Statement in August 2018 from $1 billion to $3 billion in consolidated total assets to provide regulatory burden relief, therefore, the Company is no longer subject to the minimum capital requirements on a consolidated basis.
The following table summarizes regulatory capital information as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 on a consolidated basis and for the subsidiary, as defined.  Regulatory capital ratios for March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The purpose of this discussion and analysis is to focus on significant changes in the financial condition of Colony Bankcorp, Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiary, Colony Bank, from December 31, 2021 through March 31, 2022 and on our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's 2021 Form 10-K, and information presented elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing in Item 1.
Forward-looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “might,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “strive,” “projection,” “goal,” “target,” “outlook,” “aim,” “would,” “annualized” and “outlook,” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control, particularly with regard to developments related to the COVID-19 (and the variants thereof) pandemic. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
A number of important factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements, including those factors discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report and the following: 
business and economic conditions, particularly those affecting the financial services industry and our primary market areas;
the impact of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic on our business;
the risk that a future economic downturn and contraction could have a material adverse effect on our capital, financial condition, credit quality, results of operations and future growth, including the risk that the strength of the current economic recovery could be weakened by the continued impact of COVID-19 and by current supply chain challenges;
adverse results from current or future litigation, regulatory examinations or other legal and/or regulatory actions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including as a result of our participation in and execution of government programs related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including, but not limited to, the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP");
factors that can impact the performance of our loan portfolio, including real estate values and liquidity in our primary market areas, the financial health of our borrowers and the success of various projects that we finance;
concentration of our loan portfolio in real estate loans and changes in the prices, values and sales volumes of commercial and residential real estate;
credit and lending risks associated with our construction and development, commercial real estate, commercial and industrial and residential real estate loan portfolios;
our ability to attract sufficient loans that meet prudent credit standards, including in our construction and development, commercial and industrial and owner-occupied commercial real estate loan categories;
our ability to attract and maintain business banking relationships with well-qualified businesses, real estate developers and investors with proven track records in our market areas;
36


changes in interest rate environment, including changes to the federal funds rate, and competition in our markets may result in increased funding costs or reduced earning assets yields, thus reducing our margins and net interest income;
our ability to successfully manage our credit risk and the sufficiency of our allowance for loan losses;
the adequacy of our reserves (including allowance for loan losses) and the appropriateness of our methodology for calculating such reserves;
our ability to successfully execute our business strategy to achieve profitable growth;
the concentration of our business within our geographic areas of operation in Georgia and neighboring markets;
our focus on small and mid-sized businesses;
our ability to manage our growth;
our ability to increase our operating efficiency;
liquidity issues, including fluctuations in the fair value and liquidity of the securities we hold for sale and our ability to raise additional capital, if necessary;
failure to maintain adequate liquidity and regulatory capital and comply with evolving federal and state banking regulations;
risks that our cost of funding could increase, in the event we are unable to continue to attract stable, low-cost deposits and reduce our cost of deposits;
inability of our risk management framework to effectively mitigate credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, price risk, compliance risk, operational risk, strategic risk and reputational risk;
inflation, interest rate, securities market and monetary fluctuations and the respective impact on our financial condition and results of operation;
the makeup of our asset mix and investments;
external economic, political and/or market factors, such as changes in monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve, inflation or deflation, changes in the demand for loans, and fluctuations in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits, which may have an adverse impact on our financial condition;
the risks relating to the recently completed acquisition including, without limitation: unexpected transaction costs, including the costs of integrating operations; the risks that the businesses will not be integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; the potential failure to fully or timely realize expected revenues and revenue synergies, including as the result of revenues being lower than expected;

uncertainty related to the transition away from the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”);
continued or increasing competition from other financial institutions (including fintech companies), credit unions, and non-bank financial services companies, many of which are subject to different regulations than we are;
challenges arising from unsuccessful attempts to expand into new geographic markets, products, or services;
restraints on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to us, which could limit our liquidity;
increased capital requirements imposed by banking regulators, which may require us to raise capital at a time when capital is not available on favorable terms or at all;
a failure in the internal controls we have implemented to address the risks inherent to the business of banking;

37


inaccuracies in our assumptions about future events, which could result in material differences between our financial projections and actual financial performance;
changes in our management personnel or our inability to retain motivate and hire qualified management personnel;
the dependence of our operating model on our ability to attract and retain experienced and talented bankers in each of our markets, which may be impacted as a result of labor shortages;
our ability to identify and address cyber-security risks, fraud and systems errors;
disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events, failures or interruptions in, or attacks on, our information technology systems;
disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events affecting the third-party vendors who perform several of our critical processing functions;
an inability to keep pace with the rate of technological advances due to a lack of resources to invest in new technologies;
fraudulent and negligent acts by our clients, employees or vendors and our ability to identify and address such acts;
risks related to potential acquisitions;
the impact of any claims or legal actions to which we may be subject, including any effect on our reputation;
compliance with governmental and regulatory requirements, including the Dodd-Frank Act and others relating to banking, consumer protection, securities and tax matters, and our ability to maintain licenses required in connection with commercial mortgage origination, sale and servicing operations;
changes in the scope and cost of FDIC insurance and other coverage;
changes in our accounting standards;
changes in tariffs and trade barriers;
changes in federal tax law or policy;
the effects of war or other conflicts (including the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine), acts of terrorism, natural disasters, health emergencies, epidemics or pandemics, or other catastrophic events that may affect general economic conditions; and
other risks and factors identified in our 2021 Form 10-K, and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022, and in any of the Company's other reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and available on its website at www.sec.gov.
The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Because of these risks and other uncertainties, our actual future results, performance or achievement, or industry results, may be materially different from the results indicated by the forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, our past results of operations are not necessarily indicative of our future results. You should not rely on any forward looking statements, which represent our beliefs, assumptions and estimates only as of the dates on which they were made, as predictions of future events. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Overview
The following discussion and analysis presents the more significant factors affecting the Company’s financial condition as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and results of operations for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2022

38


and 2021. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements, notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report.
At March 31, 2022, the Company had total consolidated assets of $2.7 billion, total loans of $1.3 billion, total deposits of $2.4 billion, and stockholders’ equity of $250.3 million. The Company reported net income of $5.3 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the first three months of 2022, compared to net income of $4.9 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the first three months of 2021. The increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily driven by the increase in volume of taxable and tax-exempt investment securities and loans, acquisition of SouthCrest Financial Group, Inc. ("SouthCrest"), a decrease in provision for loan loss and an increase in interchange fees and gain on sale of SBA loans.
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis increased to $19.3 million for the first three months of 2022, compared to $14.4 million for the first three months of 2021, primarily due to an increase in investment securities and loan volume. The net interest margin decreased to 3.13% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from 3.50% for the same period in 2021. The reason for the decrease in net interest margin is primarily due to a decrease in yield on loans offset by slight decrease in deposit and borrowing rates.
The provision for loan losses was $50,000 for the first three months of 2022, compared to $500,000 for the first three months of 2021. Net charge-offs for the first three months of 2022 were $41,000 compared to net recoveries of $66,000 for the same period in 2021. As of March 31, 2022, Colony’s allowance for loan losses was $12.9 million, or 0.95% of total loans, compared to $12.9 million, or 0.96% of total loans, at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, nonperforming assets were $6.5 million and $5.8 million, or 0.24% and 0.21% of total assets, respectively.
Noninterest income of $9.2 million for the first quarter of 2022 was up $576,000 or 6.7%, from the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to increases in service charges, interchange fees and gain on sale of SBA loans, offset by a decrease in mortgage fee income. See "Table 3 - Noninterest income" for more detail and discussion on the primary drivers to the increase in noninterest income.
For the first quarter of 2022, noninterest expense was $21.8 million, an increase of $6.0 million, or 38.16%, from the same period in 2021. Increases in noninterest expense are in part due to changes to the Company's organizational structure, along with acquisition expenses related to the SouthCrest merger. Those expenses that were the primary contributors to the increase year over year include salaries and employee benefits. See "Table 4 - Noninterest expense" for more detail and discussion on the primary drivers to the increase in noninterest expense.
On February 10, 2022, the Company completed a public offering of approximately 3.85 million shares of its common stock with aggregate proceeds totaling $63.5 million. The offering generated net proceeds of approximately $59.3 million, which were used to fund the repayment of the Company's existing term note and the line of credit and for other general corporate purposes.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with GAAP and conform to general practices within the banking industry. We have identified certain of its accounting policies as “critical accounting policies,” consisting of those related to business combinations, allowance for loan losses and income taxes. In determining which accounting policies are critical in nature, we have identified the policies that require significant judgment or involve complex estimates. It is management's practice to discuss critical accounting policies with the Board of Directors' Audit Committee on a periodic basis, including the development, selection, implementation and disclosure of the critical accounting policies. The application of these policies has a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. Our financial results could differ significantly if different judgments or estimates are used in the application of these policies. All accounting policies described in Note 1 of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021, which are included in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K should be reviewed for a greater understanding of how we record and report our financial performance. There have been no significant changes to the Significant Accounting Policies as described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, which are included in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K.

Results of Operations
We reported net income and diluted earnings per share of $5.3 million and $0.34, respectively, for the first three months of 2022. This compared to net income and diluted earnings per share of $4.9 million and $0.52, respectively, for the same period in 2021.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on assets and the interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds, is the single largest component of total revenue. Management strives to optimize this income while balancing interest rate, credit and liquidity risks.
The banking industry uses two key ratios to measure relative profitability of net interest income. The net interest spread measures the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The interest rate spread eliminates the effect of noninterest-bearing deposits and gives a direct perspective on the effect of market interest rate movements. The net interest margin is an indication of the profitability of a company's balance sheet and is defined as net interest income as a percent of average total interest-earning assets, which includes the positive effect of funding a portion of interest-earning assets with noninterest-bearing deposits and stockholders' equity.
Fully taxable equivalent net interest income for the first quarter of 2022 and 2021 was $19.3 million and $14.4 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to an increase in volume of securities and loans. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2022 and 2021 was 3.13% and 3.50% respectively. The decrease in net interest margin for the first three months of 2022 compared to 2021 is a result of the decrease in loan yields and higher borrowing yields, offset by lower yields paid on deposits.
The following tables indicate the relationship between interest income and interest expense and the average amounts of assets and liabilities for the periods indicated. As shown in the tables, both average assets and average liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in average assets was primarily driven by the increase in the purchasing of investment securities of $573.6 million as well as an increase in loans of $283.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The loan increase is primarily due to the SouthCrest acquisition. The increase in average liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was funded primarily through an increase in deposits from the SouthCrest merger during the last half of 2021.The net interest spread, as well as the net interest margin, will be impacted by future changes in short-term and long-term interest rate levels, as well as the impact from the competitive environment.
The yield on total interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 0.35% in the first quarter of 2021 to 0.23% in the first quarter of 2022. The main driver for the decrease is the deposit rates decreases over 2021 and run-off of higher yielding time deposits throughout 2021 into the first quarter of 2022. In March of 2020, the Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") lowered interest rates twice for a total reduction of 150 basis points in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which was the most aggressive action taken by the FOMC since the financial crisis in 2008. In March 2022, the FOMC raised the rate 25 basis points.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses is based on management's evaluation of probable, inherent losses in the loan portfolio and unfunded commitments and the corresponding analysis of the allowance for loan losses at quarter-end. Provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $50,000 compared to $500,000 for the same period in 2021, respectively. The amount of provision expense recorded in each period was the amount required such that the total allowance for loan losses reflected the appropriate balance, in the estimation of management, sufficient to cover probable, inherent loan losses in the loan portfolio. The decrease in provision for loan losses in the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021 is largely due to the reserve levels that have already been established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. See the section captioned “Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses” elsewhere in this discussion for further analysis of the provision for loan losses.

Total noninterest income$9,152 $8,576 $576 6.72 %
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, noninterest income increased $576,000, compared to the same periods in 2021. The primary reason for this increase was due to increases in almost all noninterest income accounts offset by the decrease in mortgage fee income.
Service charges on deposit accounts. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, services charges on deposits increased $603,000, or 49.3%, compared to the same period in 2021. This increase in service charges on deposits was primarily attributable to the additional deposits acquired from SouthCrest acquisition.
Mortgage Fee Income. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, mortgage fee income was $2.9 million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 27.1%, compared to the same period in 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, there was a continued increase in the demand for mortgage rate locks and mortgage closings due to a historically low interest rate environment. As the rates started to increase in first quarter of 2022, the demand slowed down.
Gain on Sale of SBA loans. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, net realized gains on the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans totaled $1.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The small increase in 2022 was a result of continued growth in the Small Business Specialty Lending division compared to the same period in 2021.
Interchange Fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, interchange fee income was $2.0 million, an increase of $470,000, or 30.7%, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in interchange fees was primarily attributable growth of customers from the SouthCrest acquisition and the continued success with the Discover® Card program.

Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $21.8 million, up $6.0 million, or 38.2%, from the same period in 2021. Increases in salaries and employee benefits, information technology expenses, and acquisition expenses accounted for the majority of these increases.
Salaries and Employee Benefits. Salaries and employee benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased $3.3 million, or 33.3%, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in 2022 is primarily attributable to the salary and employee benefits from the additional employees from the SouthCrest acquisition compared to the same period in 2021.
Acquisition-related Expenses. Acquisition-related expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased $448,000, or 254.5%, compared to the same period in 2021. Increases are primarily attributed to amortization of intangibles related to the SouthCrest and insurance acquisitions that occurred in 2021.
Information technology Expenses. Information technology expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased $762,000, or 47.9%, compared to the same period in 2021. These increases relate to increases in data processing costs from SouthCrest merger and software costs due to the implementation of new software platforms used in various areas of the bank.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates were a federal tax rate of 17.0% and a Georgia state tax rate of 1.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and federal tax rate of 21% and a Georgia tax rate of 5.75% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The largest driver of the federal rate difference is tax exempt income primarily from BOLI and tax exempt interest. The largest driver of the state difference is the benefit of Georgia state tax credits as well as filing in other states with lower tax rates.
Balance Sheet Review
Total assets remained stable at $2.7 billion at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses
At March 31, 2022, gross loans outstanding (excluding loans held for sale) were $1.4 billion, an increase of $16.1 million, or 1.2%, compared to $1.3 billion at December 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, PPP loans totaling approximately $8.3 million were forgiven through the SBA.
At March 31, 2022, approximately 71.9% of our loans are secured by commercial real estate. The following table presents a summary of the loan portfolio as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

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

45


management is able to effectively evaluate the portfolio by risk, which management believes is the most effective way to analyze the loan portfolio and thus analyze the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.
The allowance for loan losses is established by examining (1) the large classified loans, nonaccrual loans and loans considered impaired and evaluating them individually to determine the specific reserve allocation and (2) the remainder of the loan portfolio to allocate a portion of the allowance based on past loss experience and the economic conditions for the particular loan category. The Company also considers other factors such as changes in lending policies and procedures; changes in national, regional and/or local economic and business conditions; changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; changes in the experience, ability and depth of either the market president or lending staff; changes in the volume and severity of past-due and classified loans; changes in the quality of the loan review system; and other factors management deems appropriate.
The allowance for loan losses was $12.9 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $12.7 million at March 31, 2021, an increase of $226,000, or 1.8%. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 0.96% and 1.19% at March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The quarterly provision was $50,000 compared to $500,000 at March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively. The amount of provision expense recorded in each period was the amount required such that the total allowance for loan losses reflected the appropriate balance, in the estimation of management, sufficient to cover probable, inherent losses in the loan portfolio. The primary reason for the decrease in allowance to loans as a percentage for loans is primarily due to the SouthCrest acquisition and additional loans that came with that acquisition without corresponding reserves. The decrease in the provision over the same period in 2021 is due to the additional reserve levels calculated in the prior period in response to the social and economic disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021.
Additional information about the Company’s allowance for loan losses is provided in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2022, included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Nonperforming Assets
Asset quality experienced some decline during the first three months of 2022. Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more, repossessed personal property and other real estate owned ("OREO"). Nonaccrual loans totaled $6.2 million at March 31, 2022, an increase of $722,000, or 13.3%, from $5.4 million at December 31, 2021. There were no loans contractually past due 90 days or more and still accruing for either period presented. At March 31, 2022, OREO totaled $246,000, a decrease of $35,000, or 12.5%, compared with $281,000 at December 31, 2021. The decrease in OREO was due to a donation of assets during the first three months of 2022. At the end of the first quarter 2022, total nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets increased to 0.24% compared with 0.21% at December 31, 2021.
Generally, loans are placed on non-accrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question, as well as when required by regulatory requirements. Loans to a customer whose financial condition has deteriorated are considered for non-accrual status whether or not the loan is 90 days or more past due. Once interest accruals are discontinued, accrued but uncollected interest is charged to current year operations. Subsequent loan payments made on nonaccrual loans are recorded as a reduction of principal, and interest income is recorded only after principal recovery is reasonably assured. Classification of a loan as nonaccrual does not preclude the ultimate collection of loan principal or interest.
Foreclosed property is initially recorded at fair value, less estimated costs to sell. If the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, at the time of foreclosure is less than the loan balance, the deficiency is charged against the allowance for loan losses. If the lesser of the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, or the listed selling price, less the costs to sell, of the foreclosed property decreases during the holding period, a valuation allowance is established with a charge to foreclosed property expense. When the foreclosed property is sold, a gain or loss is recognized on the sale for the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the property.
Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows:

The restructuring of a loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring (" TDR") if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the Company has granted the borrower a concession that we would not consider otherwise. At March 31, 2022, TDRs decreased slightly to $7.2 million from $7.3 million reported at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022, $870,000 in TDRs were considered nonperforming and at December 31, 2021, all TDRs were performing according to their modified terms and were therefore not considered to be nonperforming assets.

Deposits
Deposits at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows:

Noninterest-bearing deposits$557,985 $552,576 
Interest-bearing deposits883,159 930,811

Other time269,662 275,821 
Total deposits$2,350,786 $2,374,608 
Total deposits decreased $23.8 million to $2.35 billion at March 31, 2022 from $2.37 billion at December 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2022, 23.7% of total deposits were comprised of noninterest-bearing accounts and 76.3% comprised of interest-bearing deposit accounts, compared to 23.3% and 76.7% as of December 31, 2021, respectively. The decline in our deposits is due the combination of spending of government stimulus programs, PPP loan proceeds previously retained on deposits by corporate borrowers, and customer expense and savings habits in response to the winding down of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We had $884,000 and $883,000 in brokered deposits at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We use brokered deposits, subject to certain limitations and requirements, as a source of funding to support our asset growth and augment the deposits generated from our branch network, which are our principal source of funding. Our level of brokered deposits varies from time to time depending on competitive interest rate conditions and other factors, and tends to increase as a percentage of total deposits when the brokered deposits are less costly than issuing internet certificates of deposit or borrowing from the FHLB.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company is a party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. The type of collateral held varies, but may include cash or cash equivalents, unimproved or improved real estate, personal property or other acceptable collateral.
See Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2022, included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, for a table setting forth the financial instruments that were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk and more information regarding our off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Liquidity
An important part of the Bank's liquidity resides in the asset portion of the balance sheet, which provides liquidity primarily through loan interest and principal repayments and the maturities and sales of securities, as well as the ability to use these assets as collateral for borrowings on a secured basis.
The Bank's main source of liquidity is customer interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposit accounts. Liquidity is also available from wholesale funding sources consisting primarily of Federal funds purchased, FHLB advances and brokered deposits. These sources of liquidity are generally short-term in nature and are used as necessary to fund asset growth and meet other short-term liquidity needs.
To plan for contingent sources of funding not satisfied by both local and out-of-market deposit balances, the Company and the Bank have established multiple borrowing sources to augment their funds management. The Company has borrowing capacity through membership of the Federal Home Loan Bank program. The Bank has also established overnight borrowing for Federal Funds purchased through various correspondent banks.

Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $156.4 million and $197.2 million, respectively. This decrease is primarily attributable to the deployment of funds that came from PPP loans and the repayment of Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”). Management believes the various funding sources discussed above are adequate to meet the Company’s liquidity needs without any material adverse impact on our operating results.
On February 10, 2022, the Company completed a public offering of approximately $63.5 million of its common stock. The offering generated net proceeds of approximately $59.3 million, which were used to fund the repayment of the Company's existing term note and the line of credit and for other general corporate purposes.
Liquidity management involves the matching of cash flow requirements of customers and the ability of the Company to manage those requirements. These requirements of customers include, but are not limited to, deposits being withdrawn or providing assurance to borrowers that sufficient funds are available to meet their credit needs. We strive to maintain an adequate liquidity position by managing the balances and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities so that the balance we have in short-term assets at any given time will adequately cover any reasonably anticipated need for funds. Additionally, we maintain relationships with correspondent banks, which could provide funds on short notice, if needed. We have also invested in FHLB stock for the purpose of establishing credit lines with the FHLB. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $51.7 million of outstanding advances from the FHLB. Based on the values of loans pledged as collateral, we had $619.3 million and $574.7 million of additional borrowing availability with the FHLB at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
The Company is a separate entity from the Bank, and as such it must provide for its own liquidity. The Company is responsible for the payment of dividends declared for its common shareholders and payment of interest and principal on any outstanding debt or trust preferred securities. These obligations are met through internal capital resources such as service fees and dividends from the Bank, which are limited by applicable laws and regulations.

Capital Resources
The Bank is required under federal law to maintain certain minimum capital levels based on ratios of capital to total assets and capital to risk-weighted assets. The required capital ratios are minimums, and the federal banking agencies may determine that a banking organization, based on its size, complexity or risk profile, must maintain a higher level of capital in order to operate in a safe and sound manner. Risks such as concentration of credit risks and the risk arising from non-traditional activities, as well as the institution’s exposure to a decline in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates, and an institution’s ability to manage those risks are important factors that are to be taken into account by the federal banking agencies in assessing an institution’s overall capital adequacy.
The table below summarizes the capital requirements applicable to the Bank in order to be considered “well-capitalized” from a regulatory perspective, as well as the Bank’s capital ratios as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and was considered to be “well-capitalized” as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There have been no conditions or events since December 31, 2021 that management believes would change this classification.

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