Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Back-to-Back Swaps

The Company offers interest rate swaps when requested by customers to allow them to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on their variable rate loans. Upon entering into these swaps, the Company enters into offsetting positions with counterparties in order to minimize the interest rate risk. These back-to-back swaps qualify as freestanding financial derivatives with the fair values reported in Other Assets and Other Liabilities. The Company is party to master netting arrangements with its financial institution counterparties; however, the Company does not offset assets and liabilities under the arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes. Gains and losses on these back-to-back swaps, which offset, are recorded through noninterest income. No net gains or losses have been recognized to date on these instruments. As of December 31, 2022, the interest rate swaps had an aggregate notional value of $312.8 million, with a fair value of $23.1 million recorded in Other Assets and Other Liabilities. As of December 31, 2021, the interest rate swaps had an aggregate notional value of $175.4 million with a fair value of $8.0 million. The weighted average maturity was 6.7 years at both December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Interest Rate Floors Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

The Company has entered into interest rate floor contracts to mitigate exposure to the variability of future cash flows due to changes in interest rates on certain segments of its variable-rate loans. During 2020, the Company entered into two interest rate floor contracts, each with a notional amount of $150.0 million, maturing in October 2023 and November 2023. The Company considers these derivatives to be highly effective at achieving offsetting changes in cash flows attributable to changes in interest

rates and has designated them as cash flow hedges. Therefore, changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recognized in other comprehensive income. Amortization of the premium paid on cash flow hedges is recognized in earnings over the term of the hedge in the same caption as the hedged item. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the interest rate floors had a fair value of $2 thousand and $0.3 million, respectively, and are recorded in Other Assets in the consolidated balance sheet. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized losses through other comprehensive income of $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and reclassified $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, out of accumulated other comprehensive income and into interest income. Over the next 12 months the Company expects to reclassify $0.5 million from accumulated other comprehensive income into interest income related to these agreements.
