Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT REPORTING

SEGMENT REPORTINGCurrently, the Company conducts business in three operating segments - Community Banking, Insurance, and Investment Management. Each of the operating segments is a strategic business unit that offers different products and services. The Insurance and Investment Management segments were businesses that were acquired in separate transactions where management of the acquired business was retained. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the Company. However, the segment data reflects inter-segment transactions and balances.

The Community Banking segment is conducted through the Bank and involves delivering a broad range of financial products and services, including various loan and deposit products, to both individuals and businesses. Parent company income and assets are included in the Community Banking segment, as the majority of parent company functions are related to this segment. Major revenue sources include net interest income, gains on sales of mortgage loans, trust income fees, and service charges on deposit accounts. Expenses include personnel, occupancy, marketing, equipment, and other expenses. Non-cash charges associated with amortization of intangibles were $1.1 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Insurance segment is conducted through Sandy Spring Insurance Corporation, a subsidiary of the Bank. Sandy Spring Insurance Corporation operates Sandy Spring Insurance, a general insurance agency located in Annapolis, Maryland, and Neff and Associates, located in Ocean City, Maryland. Major sources of revenue are insurance commissions from commercial lines, personal lines, and medical liability lines. Expenses include personnel, occupancy, support charges, and other expenses. Non-cash charges associated with amortization of intangibles were immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

The Investment Management segment is conducted through West Financial and RPJ, subsidiaries of the Bank. These asset management and financial planning firms, located in McLean, Virginia and Falls Church, Virginia, respectively, provide comprehensive investment management and financial planning to individuals, families, small businesses and associations, including cash flow analysis, investment review, tax planning, retirement planning, insurance analysis and estate planning. West Financial and RPJ had approximately $3.9 billion in combined assets under management as of March 31, 2022. Major revenue sources include non-interest income earned on the above services. Expenses include personnel, occupancy, support charges, and other expenses. Non-cash charges associated with amortization of intangibles were $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
