C&F FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). They do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the C&F Financial Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (2022 Annual Report).  The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to U.S. GAAP and to predominant practices within the banking industry and are primarily disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report, except as described in Note 2 related to the adoption of new accounting standards.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of C&F Financial Corporation (the Corporation), its direct wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens and Farmers Bank (the Bank or C&F Bank) and indirect subsidiaries that are wholly-owned or controlled. Subsidiaries that are less than wholly owned are fully consolidated if they are controlled by the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries, and the portion of any subsidiary not owned by the Corporation is reported as noncontrolling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Corporation owns all of the common stock of C&F Financial Statutory Trust I, C&F Financial Statutory Trust II and Central Virginia Bankshares Statutory Trust I, all of which are unconsolidated subsidiaries. The subordinated debt owed to these trusts is reported as liabilities of the Corporation.  

Nature of Operations: The Corporation is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Corporation owns all of the stock of its subsidiary, C&F Bank, which is an independent commercial bank chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

C&F Bank has five wholly-owned subsidiaries: C&F Mortgage Corporation (C&F Mortgage), C&F Finance Company (C&F Finance), C&F Wealth Management Corporation (C&F Wealth Management), C&F Insurance Services, Inc. (C&F Insurance) and CVB Title Services, Inc. (CVB Title), all incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. C&F Mortgage, organized in September 1995, originates and sells residential mortgages, provides mortgage loan origination services to third-party lenders and, through its subsidiary Certified Appraisals LLC, provides ancillary mortgage loan production services for residential appraisals. C&F Mortgage owns a 51 percent interest in C&F Select LLC, which was organized in January 2019 and is also engaged in the business of originating and selling residential mortgages. C&F Finance, acquired in September 2002, is a finance company purchasing automobile, marine and recreational vehicle (RV) loans through indirect lending programs. C&F Wealth Management, organized in April 1995, is a full-service brokerage firm offering a comprehensive range of wealth management services and insurance products through third-party service providers. C&F Insurance and CVB Title were organized for the primary purpose of owning equity interests in an independent insurance agency and a full service title and settlement agency, respectively. Business segment data is presented in Note 11.

Basis of Presentation: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses and evaluation of goodwill for impairment. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations in these financial statements, have been made.

Reclassification: Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.  None of these reclassifications are considered material and did not affect net income or total equity.

8

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Corporation recognizes derivative financial instruments at fair value as either an other asset or other liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments include (1) interest rate swaps that qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges on the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes, (2) interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers and dealer counterparties and (3) interest rate contracts arising from mortgage banking activities, including interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) on mortgage loans. The gain or loss on the Corporation’s cash flow hedges is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of deferred income taxes, and reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. IRLCs and interest rate swaps with loan customers and dealer counterparties are not designated as hedging instruments, and therefore changes in the fair value of these instruments are reported as noninterest income. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are described more fully in Note 13.

Recent Significant Accounting Pronouncements:

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.”  Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. This guidance provides temporary, optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential burden in accounting for modifications of loan contracts, borrowings, hedging relationships and other transactions related to reference rate reform associated with the LIBOR transition if certain criteria are met. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024 and can be adopted at an instrument level. The Corporation has utilized certain optional expedients and exceptions under Topic 848 in the case of modifications to certain loans, borrowings and cash flow hedges during 2022 and 2023. These modifications have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not currently expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 2: Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments,” ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief,” ASU 2019-10, “Financial instruments—Credit losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)—Effective dates,” ASU 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,” ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842),” ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments”  and ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (collectively, ASC 326).

ASC 326 introduced an approach based on current expected credit losses (CECL) to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, replacing the incurred loss methodology from prior GAAP. It also applies to unfunded commitments to extend credit, including loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and other similar instruments. It modified the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provided for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination.  It also modified the measurement principles for modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, including how the allowance for credit losses (ACL) is measured for such loans.

The amendments of ASC 326, upon adoption, were applied on a modified retrospective basis, recording an increase in the reported balance of loans and the allowance for credit losses on loans, recognizing a liability for credit losses on commitments to extend credit, and reducing total equity of both the Corporation and of C&F Bank, which resulted in a reduction of regulatory capital of C&F Bank.  As a result of adopting ASC 326, the Corporation recorded a decrease to opening retained earnings of $1.1 million.

9

ASC 326 also replaced the Corporation’s previous accounting policies for purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loans and troubled-debt restructurings (TDRs). With the adoption of ASC 326, loans previously designated as PCI loans were designated as purchased loans with credit deterioration (PCD loans). The Corporation adopted ASC 326 using the prospective transition approach for PCD loans that were previously identified as PCI and accounted for under ASC 310-30. On January 1, 2023, the Corporation’s PCD loans were adjusted to reflect the addition of $604,000 of expected credit losses to the amortized cost basis of the loans and a corresponding increase to the ACL. The remaining noncredit discount, the difference between the adjusted amortized cost basis and the outstanding principal balance on PCD loans, will be accreted into interest income over the estimated remaining lives of the loans using the effective interest rate method. The evaluation of the ACL will include PCD loans together with other loans that share similar risk characteristics, rather than using the separate pools that were used under PCI accounting. The adoption of ASC 326 also replaced previous TDR accounting guidance, and the evaluation of the ACL will include loans previously designated as TDRs together with other loans that share similar risk characteristics.    

The adoption of ASC 326 did not affect the carrying value of debt securities or the amount of unrealized gains and losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Upon adoption of ASC 326, the Corporation did not have any securities included in its portfolio where other-than-temporary-impairments had previously been recognized or that required an ACL.

The following table illustrates the impact of adopting ASC 326.

The following accounting policies have been updated in connection with the adoption of ASC 326 and apply to periods beginning after December 31, 2022. Accounting policies applying to prior periods are described in the 2022 Annual Report, as discussed above.

Securities: Investments in debt securities are classified as either held to maturity, available for sale, or trading, based on management’s intent. Currently all of the Corporation’s debt securities are classified as available for sale. Available for sale debt securities are carried at estimated fair value with the corresponding unrealized gains and losses recognized in

10

other comprehensive income (loss). Gains or losses are recognized in net income on the trade date using the amortized cost of the specific security sold. Purchase premiums are recognized in interest income using the effective interest rate method over the period from purchase to maturity or, for callable securities, the earliest call date, and purchase discounts are recognized in the same manner from purchase to maturity.  

Impairment of debt securities occurs when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost. The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis. For debt securities available for sale, impairment is recognized in its entirety in net income if either (i) we intend to sell the security or (ii) it is more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If, however, the Corporation does not intend to sell the security and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Corporation will be required to sell the security before recovery, the Corporation evaluates unrealized losses to determine whether a decline in fair value below amortized cost basis is a result of a credit loss, which occurs when the amortized cost basis of the security exceeds the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security, or other factors such as changes in market interest rates. If a credit loss exists, an allowance for credit losses is recorded that reflects the amount of the impairment related to credit losses, limited by the amount by which the security’s amortized cost basis exceeds its fair value. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in net income in the period of change and are included in provision for credit losses. Changes in the fair value of debt securities available for sale not resulting from credit losses are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The Corporation regularly reviews unrealized losses in its investments in securities and cash flows expected to be collected from impaired securities based on criteria including the extent to which market value is below amortized cost, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer, the Corporation’s intention with regard to holding the security to maturity and the likelihood that the Corporation would be required to sell the security before recovery.

Loans Held for Investment: The Corporation makes mortgage, commercial and consumer loans to customers. The Corporation’s recorded investment in loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally is reported at the unpaid principal balances adjusted for charges-offs, unearned discounts, any deferred fees or costs on originated loans, and the allowance for credit losses. The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis. Interest on loans is credited to operations based on the principal amount outstanding. Loan fees and origination costs are deferred and the net amount is amortized as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield using the level-yield method. The Corporation is amortizing these amounts over the estimated life of the related loans.

Loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition. In the case of loans that have experienced more than insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination as of the acquisition date, the loan’s amortized cost basis is increased above estimated fair value by the amount of expected credit losses as of the acquisition date, and a corresponding allowance for credit losses is also recorded. Any remaining non-credit discount or premium for such purchased loans with credit deterioration (or PCD loans) and any fair value discount or premium for non-PCD loans is accreted or amortized as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans using the level-yield method. There is no allowance for credit losses established at the acquisition date for non-PCD loans.

A loan’s past due status is based on the contractual due date of the most delinquent payment due.  Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when the collection of principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, or earlier, if collection is uncertain based on an evaluation of the net realizable value of the collateral and the financial strength of the borrower. Any accrued interest receivable on loans placed on nonaccrual status is reversed by an adjustment to interest income.  Loans greater than 90 days past due may remain on accrual status if management determines it has adequate collateral to cover the principal and interest. For those loans that are carried on nonaccrual status, payments are first applied to principal outstanding.  A loan may be returned to accrual status if the borrower has demonstrated a sustained period of repayment performance in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan and there is reasonable assurance the borrower will continue to make payments as agreed.  These policies are applied consistently across our loan portfolio.

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has entered into commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets when they are funded.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans: The allowance for credit losses on loans is established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance for credit losses for the

11

difference between the carrying value of the loan and the estimated net realizable value or fair value of the collateral, if collateral dependent, when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance represents management’s current estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual term of loans held for investment, and is recorded at an amount that, in management’s judgment, reduces the recorded investment in loans to the net amount expected to be collected. No allowance for credit loss is recorded on accrued interest receivable and amounts written-off are reversed by an adjustment to interest income. Management’s judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of historical loan losses, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts relevant to the collectability of loans. Loans that share common risk characteristics are evaluated collectively using a discounted cash flow approach for all loans except for overdraft balances, which are evaluated using a loss rate approach.  The discounted cash flow approach used by the Corporation utilizes loan-level cash flow projections and pool-level assumptions.

For commercial (except for loans to states and political subdivisions) and consumer loans, cash flow projections and estimated expected losses are based in part on twelve-month forecasts of the national unemployment rate that are reasonable and supportable and external observations of historical loan losses. Forecasts of the national unemployment rate are derived from the Federal Open Markets Committee of the Federal Reserve Board and incorporated into the estimate of expected credit losses using a statistical regression analysis. For periods beyond those for which reasonable and supportable forecasts are available, projections are based on a reversion of the national unemployment rate from the last forecast to a historical average level over the following six months. Cash flow projections and estimated expected losses for loans to states and political subdivisions are based on external loss observations for state and municipal debt obligations. For consumer finance loans, cash flow projections and estimated expected losses reflect historical average loss experience based on internal observations for auto loans and based on external loss observations for marine and recreational vehicle loans.

Management’s estimate of the allowance for credit losses on loans that are collectively evaluated also includes a qualitative assessment of available information relevant to assessing collectability that is not captured in the loss estimation process. Factors considered by management include changes and expected changes in general market, economic and business conditions; the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; the volume and severity of delinquencies and adversely classified loan balances and the value of underlying collateral. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.  The evaluation also considers the following risk characteristics that are inherent in the loan portfolio:

● Commercial loans are comprised of mortgage loans on commercial real estate, real estate acquisition, development and constructions loans, and other business lending, and carry risks associated with the successful operation of a business or a real estate project and changes in the value of collateral. In addition to other risks associated with the ownership of real estate, the repayment of these loans may be dependent upon the profitability and cash flows of the business or project. Construction loans, which include loans to individuals for the construction of a residence that generally will be occupied by the borrower, also bear the risk that the general contractor, who may or may not be a loan customer, may be unable to finish the construction project as planned because of financial pressure unrelated to the project. In addition, there is risk associated with the value of collateral other than real estate which may depreciate over time and cannot be appraised with as much precision.

● Consumer loans are comprised primarily of residential mortgage loans and home equity lines secured by residential real estate and carry risks associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral.

● Consumer finance loans are comprised of indirect financing for purchases of automobiles and marine and recreational vehicles (RVs) and carry risks associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral, which are typically rapidly-depreciating vehicles. Consumer finance loans are more likely than real estate loans to be immediately adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy.

12

Loans that do not share common risk characteristics with other loans are evaluated individually and are not included in the collective analysis. The allowance for credit losses on loans that are individually evaluated may be estimated based on their expected cash flows, or, in the case of loans for which repayment is expected substantially through the operation or sale of collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, may be measured based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell.

Reserve for Unfunded Commitments: The Corporation records a reserve, reported in other liabilities, for expected credit losses on commitments to extend credit that are not unconditionally cancelable by the Corporation.  The reserve for unfunded commitments is measured based on the principles utilized in estimating the allowance for credit losses on loans and an estimate of the amount of unfunded commitments expected to be advanced. Changes in the reserve for unfunded commitments are recorded through the provision for credit losses.

NOTE 3: Securities

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326, which made changes to accounting for available for sale debt securities whereby credit losses should be presented as an allowance, rather than as a write-down when management does not intend to sell and does not believe that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell prior to maturity. In addition, ASC 326 requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to measure an expected credit loss under the CECL methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. All securities information presented as of March 31, 2023 is in accordance with ASC 326. All securities information presented as of December 31, 2022 or a prior date is presented in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. For further discussion on the Corporation’s accounting policies and policy elections related to the accounting standard update refer to Note 1 and Note 2.

The Corporation’s debt securities, all of which are classified as available for sale, are summarized as follows:

The Corporation pledges securities primarily to secure public deposits, repurchase agreements and lines of credit that provide liquidity to the Corporation and C&F Bank. Securities with an aggregate amortized cost of $442.64 million and an aggregate fair value of $409.40 million were pledged at March 31, 2023. Securities with an aggregate amortized cost of $237.15 million and an aggregate fair value of $213.58 million were pledged at December 31, 2022.

Securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2023, by duration of the period of the unrealized loss, are shown below.

There were 538 debt securities with a fair value below the amortized cost basis, totaling $468.29 million of aggregate fair value as of March 31, 2023. The Corporation concluded that a credit loss does not exist in its securities portfolio at March 31, 2023, and no impairment loss has been recognized based on the fact that (1) changes in fair value were caused primarily by fluctuations in interest rates, (2) securities with unrealized losses had generally high credit quality, (3) the Corporation intends to hold these investments in debt securities to maturity and it is more-likely-than-not that the Corporation will not be required to sell these investments before a recovery of its investment, and (4) issuers have continued to make timely payments of principal and interest. Additionally, the Corporation’s mortgage-backed securities are entirely issued by either U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises.  Collectively, these entities provide a guarantee, which is either explicitly or implicitly supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, that investors in such mortgage-backed securities will receive timely principal and interest payments.

The Corporation’s investment in restricted stock totaled $5.83 million at March 31, 2023 and $1.12 million at December 31, 2022 and consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) stock.  Restricted stock is generally viewed as a long-term investment, which is carried at cost because there is no market for the stock other than the FHLBs. Therefore, when evaluating restricted stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing any temporary decline in value. The Corporation did not consider its investment in restricted stock to be impaired at March 31, 2023 and no impairment has been recognized.

NOTE 4: Loans

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables. For further discussion on the Corporation’s accounting policies and policy elections related to the accounting standard update see Note 1 and Note 2. All loan information presented as of March 31, 2023 is in accordance with ASC 326. All loan information presented as of December 31, 2022 or a prior date is presented in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.

The Corporation’s loans are stated at their face amount, net of deferred fees and costs and discounts, and consist of the classes of loans included in the table below. The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable, totaling $6.3 million at March 31, 2023, from the amortized cost basis of loans.

1 For the purposes of the table above, “Current” includes loans that are 1-29 days past due.

The table above includes nonaccrual loans that are current of $164,000, 60-89 days past due of $98,000 and 90+ days past due of $647,000.

The following table shows the Corporation’s amortized cost basis of loans on nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Corporation recognized $19,000 of interest income on loans on nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2023 and had no reversal of interest income upon placing loans on nonaccrual status during the three months ended March 31, 2023. All nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2023 had an allowance for credit loss.

Occasionally, the Corporation modifies loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties by providing principal forgiveness, term extensions, interest rate reductions or other-than-insignificant payment delays. As the effect of most modifications is already included in the allowance for credit losses due to the measurement methodologies used in its estimate, the allowance for credit losses is typically not adjusted upon modification. When principal forgiveness is provided at modification, the amount forgiven is charged against the allowance for credit losses.  In some cases, the Corporation may provide multiple types of modifications on one loan and when multiple types of modifications occur within the same period, the combination of modifications is separately reported.

Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty (or modified loans) during the three months ended March 31, 2023 included a combination of term extensions and interest rate reductions of commercial real estate loans with a recorded investment of $47,000, or less than one percent of all commercial real estate loans, at March 31, 2023.  The modified loans’ weighted-average interest rate was reduced from 8.75 percent to 8.0 percent and the weighted-average term extension was 4.9 years.

The Corporation closely monitors the performance of modified loans to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts.  Upon the determination that all or a portion of a modified loan is uncollectible, that amount is charged against the allowance for credit losses. There were no payment defaults during the three months ended March 31, 2023 of modified loans that were modified during the previous twelve months and all are current as of March 31, 2023.

NOTE 5: Allowance for Credit Losses

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost. For further discussion on the Corporation’s accounting policies and policy elections related to the accounting standard update see Note 1 and Note 2. All allowance for credit loss information presented as of March 31, 2023 is in accordance with ASC 326. All allowance for credit loss information presented as of December 31, 2022 or a prior date is presented in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.

The following table shows the allowance for credit losses activity by loan portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2023:

Commercial and consumer loans are assigned loan classification ratings based on their credit quality and risk of loss. These loan ratings are reviewed on a quarterly basis and updated as new information becomes available. The characteristics of these loan ratings are as follows:

● Pass rated loans are to persons or business entities with an acceptable financial condition, appropriate collateral margins, appropriate cash flow to service the existing loan, and an appropriate leverage ratio. The borrower has paid all obligations as agreed and it is expected that this type of payment history will continue. When necessary, acceptable personal guarantors support the loan.

18

● Special mention loans have a specific, identified weakness in the borrower’s operations and in the borrower’s ability to generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis. The borrower’s recent payment history may be characterized by late payments. The Corporation’s risk exposure is mitigated by collateral supporting the loan. The collateral is considered to be well-margined, well maintained, accessible and readily marketable.

● Substandard loans are considered to have specific and well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the viability of the Corporation’s credit extension. The payment history for the loan has been inconsistent and the expected or projected primary repayment source may be inadequate to service the loan. The estimated net liquidation value of the collateral pledged and/or ability of the personal guarantor(s) to pay the loan may not adequately protect the Corporation. There is a distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies associated with the loan are not corrected in the near term. A substandard loan would not automatically meet the Corporation’s definition of impaired unless the loan is significantly past due and the borrower’s performance and financial condition provide evidence that it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due.

● Substandard nonaccrual loans have the same characteristics as substandard loans; however, they have a nonaccrual classification because it is probable that the Corporation will not be able to collect all amounts due.

● Doubtful rated loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan that is classified substandard but with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high.

● Loss rated loans are not considered collectible under normal circumstances and there is no realistic expectation for any future payment on the loan. Loss rated loans are fully charged off.

For consumer finance loans, the Corporation utilizes credit scores based on the methods developed and defined by the Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) as a key indicator of the risk of loss to manage the portfolio and estimate the allowance for credit losses.  A FICO Score is a three-digit number based on the information in an applicant’s credit reports. It helps lenders determine how likely an applicant is to repay a loan. This, in turn, affects the loan amount that may be approved, repayment terms, and interest rate. Consumer finance loans are assigned a credit rating based on borrowers’ credit scores at the time of origination and are categorized within ranges of credit ratings used internally that parallel FICO Score rating bands. The Corporation monitors the consumer finance loan portfolio by past due status (refer to Note 4) and by credit rating at the time of origination, which the Corporation believes serves as a relevant indicator of aggregate credit quality and risk of loan defaults in the portfolio based upon the use of FICO Scores over time for loan approval decisions and through experience analyzing loss patterns. The characteristics of these credit ratings are as follows:

● Very Good and Good credit rated borrowers are near or above the average FICO Score of consumers. Borrowers generally have limited to no prior credit difficulties or have shown extensive creditworthiness over a recent period of time.

● Fairly Good and Fair credit rated borrowers are approaching or slightly below the average FICO Score of consumers but typically have a credit profile acceptable to most lenders. Borrowers may have experienced minor credit difficulties or have a relatively limited credit history.

● Marginal credit rated borrowers are well below the average FICO Score of consumers. Borrowers may have limited access to traditional financing due to having experienced prior credit difficulties or have a limited credit history. The risk of future charge-offs is higher.

1 Gross charge-offs of other consumer loans for the three months ended March 31, 2023 included $81,000 of demand deposit overdrafts that originated in 2023.

22

Gross charge-offs increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to higher charge-offs within the consumer finance-automobile portfolio segment as a result of an increase in the number of delinquent loans following a period of historically low delinquencies during the COVID-19 pandemic, a decline in wholesale values of used automobiles from a recent peak during the COVID-19 pandemic and continued recent challenges in repossessing automobiles due to a decline in the number of repossession agencies, which results in a fully charged-off loan when the automobile cannot be repossessed.

As of March 31, 2023, the Corporation had no collateral dependent loans for which repayment was expected to be derived substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

The components of the Corporation’s EPS calculations are as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Dollars in thousands)	2023		2022
Net income attributable to C&F Financial Corporation	$	6,441	$	5,629
Weighted average shares outstanding—basic and diluted		3,464,895		3,547,780

The Corporation has applied the two-class method of computing basic and diluted EPS for each period presented because the Corporation’s unvested restricted shares outstanding contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends equal to dividends on the Corporation’s common stock.  Accordingly, the weighted average number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS includes both vested and unvested shares outstanding.

NOTE 10: Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. U.S. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. U.S. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three levels. These levels are:

● Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt securities traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasury securities.

● Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

● Level 3—Valuation is determined using model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Corporation’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the respective asset or liability. Valuation techniques may include the use of pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

U.S. GAAP allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value (the fair value option) for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis.  The Corporation has elected to use fair value accounting for its entire portfolio of loans held for sale (LHFS).

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following describes the valuation techniques and inputs used by the Corporation in determining the fair value of certain assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

Securities available for sale. The Corporation primarily values its investment portfolio using Level 2 fair value measurements, but may also use Level 1 or Level 3 measurements if required by the composition of the portfolio. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Corporation’s entire securities portfolio was comprised of investments in debt securities classified as available for sale, which were valued using Level 2 fair value measurements. The Corporation has contracted with third party portfolio accounting service vendors for valuation of its securities portfolio. The vendors’ sources for security valuation are ICE Data Services (ICE), Refinitiv, and Bloomberg Valuation Service (BVAL).  Each source provides opinions, known as evaluated prices, as to the value of individual securities based on model-based pricing techniques that are partially based on available market data, including prices for similar instruments in active markets and prices for identical assets in markets that are not active. ICE provides evaluated prices for the Corporation’s obligations of states and political subdivisions category of securities.  ICE uses proprietary pricing models and pricing systems, mathematical tools and judgment to determine an evaluated price for a security based upon a hierarchy of market information regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.  Refinitiv and BVAL provide evaluated prices for the Corporation’s U.S. treasury, government agencies and corporations, mortgage-backed, and corporate categories of securities.  U.S. treasury securities and fixed-rate callable securities of U.S. government agencies and corporations are individually evaluated on an option adjusted spread basis for callable issues or on a nominal spread basis incorporating the term structure of agency market spreads and the appropriate risk free benchmark curve for non-callable issues.  Pass-through mortgage-backed securities (MBS) in the mortgage-backed category are grouped into aggregate categories defined by issuer program, weighted average coupon, and weighted average maturity.  Each aggregate is benchmarked to relative to-be-announced mortgage-backed securities (TBA securities) or other benchmark prices. TBA securities prices are obtained from market makers and live trading systems. Collateralized mortgage obligations in the mortgage-backed category are individually evaluated based upon a hierarchy of security specific information and market data regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.  Each evaluation is determined using an option adjusted spread and

29

prepayment model based on volatility-driven, multi-dimensional spread tables. Fixed-rate securities issued by the Small Business Association in the mortgage backed category are individually evaluated based upon a hierarchy of security specific information and market data regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.

Other investments. The Corporation holds equity investments in funds that provide debt and equity financing to small businesses. These investments are recorded at fair value and included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.  Changes in fair value are recognized in net income.  The funds are managed by investment companies, and the net asset value of each fund is reported regularly by the investment companies. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the combined fair value of these investments was $2.24 million and $2.16 million, respectively.  These investments, measured at net asset value, are not presented in the tables below related to fair value measurements. Changes in fair value of these investments resulted in the recognition of unrealized gains of $115,000 and $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Corporation also holds certain equity investments consisting of equity interests in an independent insurance agency and a full service title and settlement agency (collectively, the agencies). These investments are subject to contractual sale restrictions that only permit the sale of the investments back to the agencies themselves.  These investments are recorded at fair value and included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of these investments was $3.43 million and $3.65 million, respectively. These investments are recorded at fair value based on the contractual redemption value of Corporation’s proportionate share of the agencies’ equity.  Changes in fair value are recognized in net income and resulted in the recognition of unrealized losses of $11,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.  The Corporation’s investments in these agencies are classified as Level 2.

Loans held for sale. Fair value of the Corporation’s LHFS is based on observable market prices for similar instruments traded in the secondary mortgage loan markets in which the Corporation conducts business. The Corporation’s portfolio of LHFS is classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset - IRLCs. The Corporation recognizes IRLCs at fair value. Fair value of IRLCs is based on either (i) the price of the underlying loans obtained from an investor for loans that will be delivered on a best efforts basis or (ii) the observable price for individual loans traded in the secondary market for loans that will be delivered on a mandatory basis. All of the Corporation’s IRLCs are classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset/liability – interest rate swaps on loans. The Corporation recognizes interest rate swaps at fair value.  The Corporation has contracted with a third party vendor to provide valuations for these interest rate swaps using the discounted cash flow method. All of the Corporation’s interest rate swaps on loans are classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset/liability – cash flow hedges. The Corporation recognizes cash flow hedges at fair value. The Corporation has contracted with a third party vendor to provide valuations for these cash flow hedges using the discounted cash flow method.  All of the Corporation’s cash flow hedges are classified as Level 2.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Corporation may be required, from time to time, to measure and recognize certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following describes the valuation techniques and inputs used by the Corporation in determining the fair value of certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO). Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure. Initial fair value is based upon appraisals the Corporation obtains from independent licensed appraisers. Subsequent to foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations of the foreclosed assets based on updated appraisals, general market conditions, recent sales of similar properties, length of time the properties have been held, and our ability and intent with regard to continued ownership of the properties. The Corporation may incur additional write-downs of foreclosed assets to fair value less estimated costs to sell if valuations indicate a further deterioration in market conditions. As such, the Corporation records OREO as a nonrecurring fair value measurement classified as Level 3.

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there was no OREO that was measured at fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not required to be measured and reported at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Corporation. The Corporation uses the exit price notion in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following tables reflect the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments whether or not recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value.

NOTE 11: Business Segments

The Corporation operates in a decentralized fashion in three business segments: community banking, mortgage banking and consumer finance. The community banking segment comprises C&F Bank, C&F Wealth Management, C&F Insurance and CVB Title.  Revenues from community banking operations consist primarily of net interest income related to investments in loans and securities and outstanding deposits and borrowings, fees earned on deposit accounts, debit card interchange activity, and net revenues from offering wealth management services and insurance products through third-party service providers.  Through C&F Mortgage, mortgage banking operating revenues consist principally of gains on sales of loans in the secondary market, mortgage banking fee income related to loan originations, fees earned by providing mortgage loan origination functions to third-party lenders, and net interest income on mortgage loans held for sale. Revenues from consumer finance operations through C&F Finance consist primarily of net interest income earned on purchased retail installment sales contracts.

33

The standalone Corporation’s revenues and expenses are comprised primarily of interest expense associated with the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes and subordinated debt, general corporate expenses, and changes in the value of the rabbi trust and deferred compensation liability related to its nonqualified deferred compensation plan.  The results of the Corporation, which includes funding and operating costs that are not allocated to the business segments, are included in the column labeled “Other” in the tables below.

The community banking segment extends two warehouse lines of credit to the mortgage banking segment, providing a portion of the funds needed to originate mortgage loans. The community banking segment charges the mortgage banking segment interest at the daily FHLB advance rate plus a spread ranging from 50 basis points to 175 basis points. The community banking segment also provides the consumer finance segment with a portion of the funds needed to purchase loan contracts by means of variable rate notes that carry interest at one-month term SOFR plus 211.5 basis points, with a floor of 3.5 percent and a ceiling of 6.0 percent, and fixed rate notes that carry interest at rates ranging from 2.8 percent to 5.1 percent. The community banking segment acquires certain residential real estate loans from the mortgage banking segment at prices similar to those paid by third-party investors. These transactions are eliminated to reach consolidated totals. In addition to unallocated expenses recorded by the holding company, certain overhead costs are incurred by the community banking segment and are not allocated to the mortgage banking and consumer finance segments.

NOTE 12: Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Corporation enters into commitments to extend credit in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, including loan commitments and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.  Collateral is obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the customer.

Loan commitments are agreements to extend credit to a customer provided that there are no violations of the terms of the contract prior to funding. Commitments have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the customer. Because many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of loan commitments at the Bank was $413.78 million at March 31, 2023 and $394.75 million at December 31, 2022, which does not include IRLCs at the mortgage banking segment, which are discussed in Note 13.

Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The total contract amount of standby letters of credit, whose contract amounts represent credit risk, was $15.06 million at March 31, 2023 and $16.26 million at December 31, 2022.

The mortgage banking segment sells the majority of the residential mortgage loans it originates to third-party investors. Additionally, the community banking segment purchases residential mortgage loans from the mortgage banking segment under terms and conditions similar to third-party investors. As is customary in the industry, the agreements with these investors require the mortgage banking segment to extend representations and warranties with respect to program compliance, borrower misrepresentation, fraud, and early payment performance. Under the agreements, the investors are entitled to make loss claims and repurchase requests of the mortgage banking segment for loans that contain covered deficiencies. The mortgage banking segment has obtained early payment default recourse waivers for a portion of its business. Recourse periods for early payment default for the remaining investors vary from 90 days up to one year. Recourse periods for borrower misrepresentation or fraud, or underwriting error do not have a stated time limit. The mortgage banking segment maintains an allowance for indemnifications that represents management’s estimate of losses that are probable of arising under these recourse provisions. As performance data for loans that have been sold is not made available to the mortgage banking segment by the investors, the estimate of potential losses is inherently subjective and is based on historical indemnification payments and management’s assessment of current conditions that may contribute to indemnified losses on mortgage loans that have been sold in the secondary market.  For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Corporation recorded no provision for indemnifications and a reversal of provision for

35

indemnifications of $583,000, respectively, which is included in “Noninterest Expenses – Other” on the Consolidated Statements of Income. No indemnification payments were made during the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022. The allowance for indemnifications was $2.39 million at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

NOTE 13: Derivative Financial Instruments

The Corporation uses derivative financial instruments primarily to manage risks to the Corporation associated with changing interest rates, and to assist customers with their risk management objectives. The Corporation designates certain interest rate swaps as hedging instruments in qualifying cash flow hedges.  The changes in fair value of these designated hedging instruments is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss).  Derivative contracts that are not designated in a qualifying hedging relationship include customer accommodation loan swaps and contracts related to mortgage banking activities.

Cash flow hedges.  The Corporation designates interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges when they are used to manage exposure to variability in cash flows on variable rate borrowings such as the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes. These interest rate swaps are derivative financial instruments that manage the risk of variability in cash flows by exchanging variable-rate interest payments on a notional amount of the Corporation’s borrowings for fixed-rate interest payments.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are expected to be highly effective in offsetting the effect of changes in interest rates on the amount of variable-rate interest payments, and the Corporation assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship quarterly. If the Corporation determines that a cash flow hedge is no longer highly effective, future changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument would be reported in earnings. As of March 31, 2023, the Corporation has designated cash flow hedges to manage its exposure to variability in cash flows on certain variable rate borrowings for periods that end between June 2024 and June 2029.

All interest rate swaps were entered into with counterparties that met the Corporation’s credit standards and the agreements contain collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Corporation believes that the credit risk inherent in these derivative contracts is not significant.

Unrealized gains or losses recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) related to cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. When a designated hedging instrument is terminated and the hedged interest payments remain probable of occurring, any remaining unrecognized gain or loss in other comprehensive income (loss) is reclassified into earnings in the period(s) during which the forecasted interest payments affect earnings.  Amounts reclassified into earnings and interest receivable or payable under designated interest rate swaps are reported in interest expense.  The Corporation does not expect any unrealized losses related to cash flow hedges to be reclassified into earnings in the next twelve months.  

Loan swaps.  The Bank also enters into interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers to meet their interest rate risk management needs. The Bank simultaneously enters into interest rate swaps with dealer counterparties, with identical notional amounts and offsetting terms. The net result of these interest rate swaps is that the customer pays a fixed rate of interest and the Corporation receives a floating rate. These back-to-back loan swaps are derivative financial instruments and are reported at fair value in “other assets” and “other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Changes in the fair value of loan swaps are recorded in other noninterest income and sum to zero because of the offsetting terms of swaps with borrowers and swaps with dealer counterparties.

Mortgage banking.  The mortgage banking segment enters into IRLCs with customers to originate loans for which the interest rates are determined (or “locked”) prior to funding. The mortgage banking segment is exposed to interest rate risk through fixed-rate IRLCs and mortgage loans from the time that interest rates are locked until the loans are sold in the secondary market. The mortgage banking segment mitigates this interest rate risk by entering into forward sales contracts with investors, which at times includes the community banking segment, at the time that interest rates are locked for mortgage loans to be delivered on a best efforts basis. IRLCs are derivative financial instruments and are reported at fair value in other assets and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, along with the changes in fair value of the related forward sales of loans.  Changes in the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives are recorded as a component of gains on sales of loans.

36

At March 31, 2023, the mortgage banking segment had $70.54 million of IRLCs and $30.12 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $100.66 million in mortgage loans.  

At December 31, 2022, the mortgage banking segment had $42.28 million of IRLCs and $16.41 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $58.69 million in mortgage loans.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion supplements and provides information about the major components of the results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources of the Corporation. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition to current and historical information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to our future business, financial condition or results of operations. For a description of certain factors that may have a significant impact on our future business, financial condition or results of operations, see “Cautionary Statement About Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion and analysis.

OVERVIEW

Our primary financial goals are to maximize the Corporation’s earnings and to deploy capital in profitable growth initiatives that will enhance long-term shareholder value. We track three primary financial performance measures in order to assess the level of success in achieving these goals: (1) return on average assets (ROA), (2) return on average equity (ROE), and (3) growth in earnings.  In addition to these financial performance measures, we track the performance of the Corporation’s three business segments:  community banking, mortgage banking, and consumer finance.  We also actively manage our capital through growth, dividends and share repurchases, while considering the need to maintain a strong capital position.

The following table presents selected financial performance highlights for the periods indicated:

Consolidated net income increased $762,000 for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to higher net income of the community banking segment, partially offset by lower net income of the mortgage banking segment and the consumer finance segment.

A discussion of the performance of our business segments is included under the heading “Business Segments” in the “Results of Operations” section of this discussion and analysis.

39

Key highlights for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are as follows.

● Community banking segment loans grew $37.6 million, or 13.0 percent annualized, and $162.8 million, or 15.7%, compared to December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively;

● Consumer finance segment loans grew $601 thousand, or less than 1 percent annualized, and $78.4 million, or 19.8%, compared to December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively;

● Deposits decreased $8.1 million, or 1.6 percent annualized, and increased $26.1 million, or 1.3%, compared to December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively;

● The community banking segment’s borrowing availability increased to $658.3 million at March 31, 2023, up from $432.6 million at December 31, 2022;

● Uninsured deposits, excluding intercompany cash holdings and public deposits, which are secured with pledged investments, were approximately $418.8 million, or 21.0 percent of total deposits at March 31, 2023;

● The community banking segment recorded provision for credit losses of $450,000 for the first quarter of 2023 and recorded net reversals of provision for credit losses of $700,000 for the first quarter of 2022;

● The consumer finance segment recorded provision for credit losses of $1.6 million and $350,000 for the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively;

● Consolidated annualized net interest margin was 4.52 percent for the first quarter of 2023, compared to 3.93 percent and 4.65 percent for the first quarter of 2022 and fourth quarter of 2022, respectively;

● The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 1.77 percent of average total loans for the first quarter of 2023, compared to 0.04 percent for the first quarter of 2022;

● Mortgage banking segment loan originations increased 3.3 percent and decreased 39.0 percent for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 and first quarter of 2022, respectively; and

● On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) methodology for estimating credit losses, which resulted in a decrease to opening retained earnings of $1.1 million.

Capital Management and Dividends

Total equity was $203.2 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $196.2 million at December 31, 2022. Under regulatory capital standards, the Corporation’s tier 1 capital and total capital ratios at March 31, 2023 were 12.6 percent and 15.1 percent, respectively, compared to 12.8 percent and 15.4 percent, respectively, at December 31, 2022. At March 31, 2023, the book value per share of the Corporation’s common stock was $58.81, and tangible book value per share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was $51.03, compared to $56.27 and $48.54, respectively, at December 31, 2022.  

Total equity increased $7.0 million at March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022, due primarily to net income and lower unrealized losses in the market value of securities available for sale, which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive loss.  The Corporation’s securities available for sale are fixed income debt securities, and their unrealized loss position is a result of rising market interest rates since they were purchased. The Corporation expects to recover its investments in debt securities through scheduled payments of principal and interest, and unrealized losses are not expected to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Corporation or the Bank.

For the first quarter of 2023, the Corporation’s 44 cents per share cash dividend equated to a payout ratio of 23.7 percent of earnings per share. The Board of Directors of the Corporation continually reviews the amount of cash dividends per share and the resulting dividend payout ratio in light of changes in economic conditions, current and future capital levels and requirements and expected future earnings. In making its decision on the payment of dividends on the Corporation’s common stock, the Corporation’s Board of Directors considers operating results, financial condition, capital adequacy, regulatory requirements, shareholder returns, and other factors.

The Corporation has a share repurchase program that was authorized by the Board of Directors in November 2022 to repurchase up to $10.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock through December 31, 2023.  During the first quarter of 2023, the Corporation repurchased 35,984 shares, or $2.1 million of its common stock under this share repurchase program.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Those accounting policies with the greatest uncertainty and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments affecting the application of these policies, and the greatest likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions, or using different assumptions, are described below.

Allowance for Credit Losses: We establish the allowance for credit losses through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance for credit losses for the difference between the carrying value of the loan and the estimated net realizable value or fair value of the collateral, if collateral dependent, when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance represents management’s current estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual term of loans held for investment, and is recorded at an amount that, in management’s judgment, reduces the recorded investment in loans to the net amount expected to be collected. Management’s judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of historical loan losses, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts relevant to the collectability of loans. The measurement of the allowance for credit losses on commercial and consumer loans is based in part on forecasts of the national unemployment rate, which we believe to be indicative of risk factors related to the collectability of commercial and consumer loans. In addition, management’s estimate of expected credit losses is based on the remaining life of loans held for investment, and changes in expected prepayment behavior may result in changes in the remaining life of loans and expected credit losses. Management also assesses the risk of credit losses arising from changes in general market, economic and business conditions; the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; the volume and severity of delinquencies and adversely classified loan balances and the value of underlying collateral in determining the recorded balance of the allowance for credit losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective because it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. In evaluating the level of the allowance, we consider a range of possible assumptions and outcomes related to the various factors identified above. The level of the allowance is particularly sensitive to changes in the actual and forecasted national unemployment rate and changes in current conditions or reasonably expected future conditions affecting the collectability of loans.

Goodwill: The Corporation's goodwill was recognized in connection with past business combinations and is reported at the community banking segment and the consumer finance segment. The Corporation reviews the carrying value of goodwill at least annually or more frequently if certain impairment indicators exist. In testing goodwill for impairment, the Corporation may first consider qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we conclude that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then no further testing is required and the goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. If the Corporation elects to bypass the qualitative assessment or if we conclude that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value to determine whether an impairment exists. In the last evaluation of goodwill at the community banking segment and the consumer finance segment, which was the annual evaluation in the fourth quarter of 2022, the Corporation concluded that no impairment existed based on an assessment of qualitative factors.

For further information concerning accounting policies, refer to Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” under the heading “Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

The following table shows the average balance sheets, the amounts of interest earned on earning assets, with related yields, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, with related rates, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent that was applicable for all periods presented. Average balances of securities

41

available for sale are included at amortized cost. Loans include loans held for sale. Loans placed on a nonaccrual status are included in the balances and are included in the computation of yields, but had no material effect.

Accretion and amortization of fair value purchase adjustments related to business combinations are included in the computation of yields on loans and investments and on the costs of deposits and borrowings. The accretion contributed approximately 8 basis points and 5 basis points to the yields on community banking segment loans and total loans, respectively, for the first quarter of 2023, and 4 basis points to both the yield on total earning assets and net interest margin for the first quarter of 2023, compared to approximately 14 basis points and 10 basis points to the yields on community banking segment loans and total loans, respectively, for the first quarter of 2022, and 7 basis points to both the yield on total earning assets and net interest margin, for the first quarter of 2022.

The following table shows the direct causes of the period-to-period changes in the components of net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis. The Corporation calculates the rate and volume variances using a formula prescribed by the SEC. Rate/volume variances, the third element

Net interest income, on a taxable-equivalent basis, for the first quarter of 2023 increased to $25.2 million, compared to $20.6 million for the first quarter of 2022, due primarily to an increase in net interest margin and higher average balances of earning assets.  Annualized net interest margin increased 59 basis points to 4.52 percent for the first quarter of 2023, relative to the first quarter of 2022, due primarily to the effect of rising interest rates on yields of earning assets, which repriced more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by rising costs associated with deposits and higher average balances of higher cost borrowings. The yield on interest-earning assets increased by 104 basis points for the first quarter of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022.  The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 64 basis points for the first quarter of 2023, compared to the same period of 2022.  Average earning assets increased $126.9 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022.

Average loans, which includes both loans held for investment and loans held for sale, increased $202.0 million to $1.7 billion for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Average loans at the community banking segment increased $148.8 million, or 14.5 percent, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in average loans at the community banking segment resulted primarily from growth in the commercial real estate and residential mortgage segments of the loan portfolio. Average loans at the consumer finance segment increased $94.1 million, or 24.7 percent, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to growth in the automobile segment of the loan portfolio. Average loans at the mortgage banking segment, which consist primarily of loans held for sale, decreased $40.9 million, or 68.2 percent, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to lower mortgage loan production volume as a result of conditions in the mortgage markets and rising interest rates on mortgage loans.

The community banking segment average loan yield increased 81 basis points to 4.95 percent for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to the effects of rising interest rates. The consumer finance segment average loan yield decreased 37 basis points to 9.82 percent for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due to the consumer finance segment continuing to pursue loan contracts of higher credit quality and lower average yields. On a linked quarter basis, the trend of falling yields on consumer finance loans reversed in the first quarter of 2023 as new loan originations were brought on at higher interest rates, due to current higher market interest rates. Average

consumer finance segment loan yield increased by 19 basis points for the first quarter of 2023 from 9.63 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2022. The mortgage banking segment average loan yield increased 299 basis points to 6.29 percent for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due to higher mortgage interest rates.

Average securities available for sale increased $154.0 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to higher purchases of securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, government agencies and corporations and obligations of states and political subdivisions. The average yield on the securities portfolio on a taxable-equivalent basis increased 60 basis points to 2.30 percent for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022, due primarily to rising interest rates during 2022, which allowed for purchases of securities at higher yields.

Average interest-bearing deposits in other banks, consisting primarily of excess cash reserves maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank, decreased $229.1 million for the first quarter of 2023 due primarily to utilizing cash to fund growth in loans and securities. The average yield on interest-bearing deposits in other banks increased 258 basis points for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to rising interest rates during 2022.  The Federal Reserve Bank increased the interest rate on excess cash reserve balances from 0.15 percent at December 31, 2021 to 4.40 percent by the end of 2022 and to 4.90 percent by the end of the first quarter of 2023.

Average money market, savings and interest-bearing demand deposits increased $37.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to growth in consumer and business checking. Average time deposits increased $18.9 million for the first quarter of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to customers seeking higher yielding opportunities as a result of rising interest rates paid on time deposits.  Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $5.8 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.  The average cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 54 basis point for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to higher rates on deposits.

Average borrowings increased $52.3 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to increases in short-term Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) borrowings to support lending activities. The average cost of borrowings increased 81 basis points for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 with the mix of borrowings shifting from lower cost repurchase agreements to FHLB borrowings.

The Corporation believes that higher interest rates will continue to have a positive effect on yields of variable rate loans, new loan originations and purchases of securities available for sale. The Corporation also expects the cost of deposits to continue to rise amid competition for deposits and due to repricing of time deposits upon maturity, and that a portion of the Corporation’s funding will continue to be drawn from borrowings in the near term, resulting in a higher cost of funds.  The rate of increase in the cost of funds is expected to exceed the increase in interest-earning asset yields, therefore decreasing net interest margin for the remainder of the 2023. The effect of these factors on the Corporation’s net interest margin will depend on a number of factors, including the Corporation’s ability to continue to grow loans at the community banking segment and consumer finance segment and competition for loans and the Corporation’s ability to compete for deposits and its reliance on borrowings. The Corporation can give no assurance as to the timing or extent of further increases in market interest rates or the impact of rising interest rates or any other factor on the Corporation's net interest margin.  Alternatively, if market interest rates begin to decline, the Corporation’s net interest margin would be adversely affected as the Corporation generally expects its assets to reprice more quickly than its deposits and borrowings.

Total noninterest income increased $714,000, or 10.6 percent, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was due primarily to fluctuations in unrealized gains and losses related to the Corporation’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan, included in other (loss) income, net and higher debit card interchange fees, partially offset by lower volume of mortgage loan production, which resulted in lower gains on sales of loans and mortgage banking fee income.

The Corporation recognized unrealized gains related to its nonqualified deferred compensation plan of $767,000 for the first quarter of 2023 compared to unrealized losses of $1.3 million for the same period in 2022. Unrealized gains and losses in the Corporation’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan are offset by changes in deferred compensation, recorded in salaries and employee benefits expense.

Total noninterest expenses increased $2.2 million, or 10.8 percent, in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits related to increases in line with employment market conditions and increased deferred compensation, partially offset by lower expenses tied to mortgage loan production volume reported in mortgage banking loan processing expenses and reversal of provision for indemnifications in 2022.

Changes in deferred compensation liabilities increased salaries and employee benefits expense by $767,000 in the first quarter of 2023 and decreased salaries and employee benefits expense by $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2022, and were offset in both periods by unrealized gains and losses, respectively, recorded in noninterest income.

Income Taxes

The Corporation’s consolidated effective income tax rate was 18.3 percent and 21.7 percent for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Corporation’s consolidated effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 was lower compared to the same period in 2022 primarily as a result of a lower share of income at the consumer finance and mortgage banking segments, which are subject to state income taxes.

Business Segments

The Corporation operates in a decentralized manner in three business segments: community banking, mortgage banking and consumer finance.  An overview of the financial results for each of the Corporation’s business segments is presented below.

Community Banking:  The community banking segment comprises C&F Bank, C&F Wealth Management, C&F Insurance and CVB Title.  The following table presents the community banking segment operating results for the periods indicated.

Net income	$	6,418	$	3,517

The community banking segment reported net income of $6.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2022. The increase of $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was due primarily to higher net interest income, partially offset by (1) an increase in provision for credit losses, (2) higher salaries and employee benefits which increased in line with employment market conditions, and (3) an increase in FDIC assessment expenses due primarily to statutory increases applicable to all insured depository institutions, recorded in other expenses.

Net interest income for the community banking segment increased by $5.5 million to $19.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was due primarily to the effects of rising interest rates during 2022 on asset yields, including on variable rate loans to the consumer finance segment and higher average balances of interest-earning assets, including loans and securities. While the community banking segment expects loan yields to continue to rise, the cost of deposits is expected to rise at a faster pace therefore decreasing net interest margin for the remainder of the 2023.

The community banking segment recorded $450,000 in provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2023 due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio. The community banking segment recorded a net reversal of provision for credit losses of $700,000 for the same period in 2022 due primarily to the resolution of certain impaired loans, which resulted in no losses being realized, and the reduction of certain qualitative adjustments to reserves. Noninterest income decreased for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of lower wealth management services income and investment income in other equity interests, partially offset by higher debit card interchange income.  Noninterest expenses increased during the same period, driven primarily by higher salaries and employee benefits and FDIC assessment expenses.

The mortgage banking segment reported net income of $227,000 for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $866,000 for the same period in 2022. The decrease in net income of the mortgage banking segment for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was due primarily to lower volume of mortgage loan originations and reversal of provision for indemnifications in 2022, which is included in other expenses, partially offset by lower expenses tied to mortgage loan origination volume such as salaries and benefits, loan processing and data processing.

The following table presents mortgage loan originations and mortgage loans sold for the periods indicated.

1 Total mortgage loan originations does not include mortgage lender services.

2 Lock-adjusted originations includes an estimate of the effect of changes in the volume of mortgage loan applications in process that have not closed, net of volume not expected to close.

The rapid rise in mortgage interest rates during 2022, combined with higher home prices, has led to a substantial decline in mortgage loan originations for the mortgage industry.  Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment decreased 39.0 percent for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.  Gains on sales of loans, while

48

driven in part by mortgage loan originations, also includes the effects of changes in locked loan commitments, which reflect the volume of mortgage loan applications that are in process and have not closed. Lock-adjusted originations for the mortgage banking segment decreased 32.2 percent for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Locked loan commitments were $70.5 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $42.3 million at December 31, 2022 and $103.5 million at March 31, 2022.  Mortgage lender services fee income is derived from providing mortgage origination functions to third-party mortgage lenders for a fee. Mortgage lender services fee income increased for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of an increase in the number of institutional customers.

The mortgage banking segment recorded no provision for indemnification losses for the first quarter of 2023 compared to a reversal of provision for indemnification losses of $583,000 for the same period in 2022.  The release of indemnification reserves in the first quarter of 2022 was due primarily to improvement in the mortgage banking segment’s assessment of borrower payment performance and other factors affecting expected losses on mortgage loans sold in the secondary market.  The mortgage banking segment increased reserves for indemnification losses during 2020 based on widespread forbearance on mortgage loans and economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic.  To date, the mortgage banking segment has not made any payments for indemnification losses since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and management believes that the indemnification reserve is sufficient to absorb losses related to loans that have been sold in the secondary market.

Consumer Finance:  The following table presents the consumer finance operating results for the periods indicated.

Income tax expense		197		770
Net income	$	509	$	2,062

The consumer finance segment reported net income of $509,000 for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease in consumer finance segment net income for the first quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, was due primarily to margin compression resulting from increased borrowing costs on variable rate loans from the community banking segment and lower average yields on automobile loans and higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by loan growth.  Average loans outstanding increased $94.1 million, or 24.7%, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.

Provision for credit losses increased as a result of increased net charge-offs due primarily to an increase in the number of delinquent loans following a period of historically low delinquencies during the COVID-19 pandemic, a decline in wholesale values of used automobiles from a recent peak during the COVID-19 pandemic and continued recent challenges in repossessing automobiles due to a decline in the number of repossession agencies, which results in a fully charged-off

49

loan when the automobile cannot be repossessed. If loan performance deteriorates, resulting in further elevated delinquencies or net charge-offs, or if values of used vehicles decline, provision for credit losses may increase in future periods.

ASSET QUALITY

Allowance and Provision for Credit Losses

We conduct an analysis of the collectability of the loan portfolio on a regular basis. We use this analysis to assess the sufficiency of the allowance for credit losses on loans and to determine the necessary provision for credit losses.  

Upon adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, the Corporation segmented the loan portfolio into three loan portfolios based on common risk characteristics. The allowance for credit losses represents management’s current estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual term of loans held for investment, and is recorded at an amount that, in management’s judgment, reduces the recorded investment in loans to the net amount expected to be collected. Management’s judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of historical loan losses, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts relevant to the collectability of loans. Loans that share common risk characteristics are evaluated collectively using a discounted cash flow approach for all loans except for overdraft balances, which are evaluated using a loss rate approach.  The discounted cash flow approach used by the Corporation utilizes loan-level cash flow projections and pool-level assumptions.

For commercial (except for loans to states and political subdivisions) and consumer loans, cash flow projections and estimated expected losses are based in part on forecasts of the national unemployment rate that are reasonable and supportable and external observations of historical loan losses. Forecasts of the national unemployment rate are derived from the Federal Open Markets Committee of the Federal Reserve Board. For periods beyond those for which reasonable and supportable forecasts are available, projections are based on a reversion of the national unemployment rate from the last forecast to a historical average level over the following six months. Cash flow projections and estimated expected losses for loans to states and political subdivisions are based on external loss observations for state and municipal debt obligations. For consumer finance loans, cash flow projections and estimated expected losses reflect historical average loss experience based on internal observations for auto loans and based on external loss observations for marine and recreational vehicle loans.

Management’s estimate of the allowance for credit losses on loans that are collectively evaluated also includes a qualitative assessment of available information relevant to assessing collectability that is not captured in the loss estimation process. Factors considered by management include changes and expected changes in general market, economic and business conditions; the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; the volume and severity of delinquencies and adversely classified loan balances and the value of underlying collateral. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.  The evaluation also considers the following risk characteristics that are inherent in the loan portfolio:

● Commercial loans are comprised of mortgage loans on commercial real estate, real estate acquisition, development and constructions loans, and other business lending, and carry risks associated with the successful operation of a business or a real estate project and changes in the value of collateral. In addition to other risks associated with the ownership of real estate, the repayment of these loans may be dependent upon the profitability and cash flows of the business or project. Construction loans, which include loans to individuals for the construction of a residence that generally will be occupied by the borrower, also bear the risk that the general contractor, who may or may not be a loan customer, may be unable to finish the construction project as planned because of financial pressure unrelated to the project. In addition, there is risk associated with the value of collateral other than real estate which may depreciate over time and cannot be appraised with as much precision.

● Consumer loans are comprised primarily of residential mortgage loans and home equity lines secured by residential real estate and carry risks associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral.

50

● Consumer finance loans are comprised of indirect financing for purchases of automobiles and marine and recreational vehicles (RVs) and carry risks associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral, which are typically rapidly-depreciating vehicles. Consumer finance loans are more likely than real estate loans to be immediately adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy.

Allowance for Credit Losses Methodology – Commercial and Consumer. The review process generally begins with management assigning loan ratings to individual loans and identifying problem loans to be reviewed on an individual basis. This review of individual loans is limited to those loans that have specific risk characteristics not shared by other loans or that may result in significant losses to the Corporation, while all other loans, which may include delinquent loans and loans classified as special mention or substandard, are evaluated collectively in pools that share common risk characteristics. The allowance for loans that are individually evaluated may be estimated based on their expected cash flows, or, in the case of loans for which repayment is expected substantially through the operation or sale of collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, may be measured based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. For these collateral dependent loans, we obtain an updated appraisal if we do not have a current one on file.  Appraisals are performed by independent third party appraisers with relevant industry experience.  We may make adjustments to the appraised value based on recent sales of similar properties or general market conditions when appropriate. 

Commercial and consumer loans are assigned loan classification ratings based on their credit quality and risk of loss. These loan ratings are reviewed on a quarterly basis and updated as new information becomes available. The characteristics of these loan ratings are as follows:

● Pass rated loans are to persons or business entities with an acceptable financial condition, appropriate collateral margins, appropriate cash flow to service the existing loan, and an appropriate leverage ratio. The borrower has paid all obligations as agreed and it is expected that this type of payment history will continue. When necessary, acceptable personal guarantors support the loan.

● Special mention loans have a specific, identified weakness in the borrower’s operations and in the borrower’s ability to generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis. The borrower’s recent payment history may be characterized by late payments. The Corporation’s risk exposure is mitigated by collateral supporting the loan. The collateral is considered to be well-margined, well maintained, accessible and readily marketable.

● Substandard loans are considered to have specific and well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the viability of the Corporation’s credit extension. The payment history for the loan has been inconsistent and the expected or projected primary repayment source may be inadequate to service the loan. The estimated net liquidation value of the collateral pledged and/or ability of the personal guarantor(s) to pay the loan may not adequately protect the Corporation. There is a distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies associated with the loan are not corrected in the near term. A substandard loan would not automatically meet the Corporation’s definition of impaired unless the loan is significantly past due and the borrower’s performance and financial condition provide evidence that it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due.

● Substandard nonaccrual loans have the same characteristics as substandard loans; however, they have a nonaccrual classification because it is probable that the Corporation will not be able to collect all amounts due.

● Doubtful rated loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan that is classified substandard but with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high.

Loss rated loans are not considered collectible under normal circumstances and there is no realistic expectation for any future payment on the loan. Loss rated loans are fully charged off.

Allowance for Credit Losses Methodology – Consumer Finance. Cash flow projections and estimated expected losses reflect historical average loss experience based on internal observations for auto loans and based on external loss

51

observations for marine and recreational vehicle loans. Automobile loans are evaluated in pools of loans that share the same internal credit rating based on borrowers’ credit scores at origination. The Corporation utilizes credit scores based on the methods developed and defined by the Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) as a key indicator of the risk of loss to manage the portfolio and estimate the allowance for credit losses.  A FICO Score is a three-digit number based on the information in an applicant’s credit reports. It helps lenders determine how likely an applicant is to repay a loan. This, in turn, affects the loan amount that may be approved, repayment terms, and interest rate. The Corporation obtains FICO Scores in the credit reports provided by the car dealers that accept the consumer auto loan application, which may have been generated by any of the three major credit reporting bureaus, and also independently obtains a credit report on the borrower directly from Experian or Transunion. The Corporation utilizes an industry-specific FICO Score which is optimized for automobile credit products. Consumer finance loans are assigned a credit rating based on borrowers’ credit scores at the time of origination and are categorized within ranges of credit ratings used internally that parallel FICO Score rating bands. The Corporation monitors the consumer finance loan portfolio by past due status and by credit rating at the time of origination, which the Corporation believes serves as a relevant indicator of aggregate credit quality and risk of loan defaults in the portfolio based upon the use of FICO Scores over time for loan approval decisions and through experience analyzing loss patterns. The characteristics of these credit ratings are as follows:

● Very Good and Good credit rated borrowers are near or above the average FICO Score of consumers. Borrowers generally have limited to no prior credit difficulties or have shown extensive creditworthiness over a recent period of time.

● Fairly Good and Fair credit rated borrowers are approaching or slightly below the average FICO Score of consumers but typically have a credit profile acceptable to most lenders. Borrowers may have experienced minor credit difficulties or have a relatively limited credit history.

● Marginal credit rated borrowers are well below the average FICO Score of consumers. Borrowers may have limited access to traditional financing due to having experienced prior credit difficulties or have a limited credit history. The risk of future charge-offs is higher.

In accordance with its policies and guidelines and consistent with industry practices, the consumer finance segment, at times, offers payment deferrals, whereby the borrower is allowed to move up to two payments within a twelve-month rolling period to the end of the loan. A fee will be collected for extensions only in states that permit it. An account for which all delinquent payments are deferred is classified as current at the time the deferment is granted and therefore is not included as a delinquent account. Thereafter, such an account is aged based on the timely payment of future installments in the same manner as any other account. We evaluate the results of this deferment strategy based upon the amount of cash installments that are collected on accounts after they have been deferred versus the extent to which the collateral underlying the deferred accounts has depreciated over the same period of time. Based on this evaluation, we believe that payment deferrals granted according to our policies and guidelines are an effective portfolio management technique and result in higher ultimate cash collections. Payment deferrals may affect the ultimate timing of when an account is charged off. Increased use of deferrals may result in a lengthening of the loss confirmation period, which would increase expectations of credit losses inherent in the portfolio and therefore increase the allowance for credit losses and related provision for credit losses.

The allowance for credit losses represents an amount that, in our judgment, reduces the recorded investment in loans to the net amount expected to be collected. The provision for credit losses increases the allowance, and loans charged off, net of recoveries, reduce the allowance. Balances and ratios presented as of March 31, 2023 are in accordance with ASC 326, whereas balances and ratios presented as of December 31, 2022 or a prior date are presented in accordance with the previously applicable GAAP.

Loans are required to be measured at amortized cost and to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Off balance sheet credit exposures, including loan commitments, are not recorded on balance sheet, but expected credit losses arising from off balance sheet credit exposures are recorded as a reserve for unfunded commitments and reported in Other Liabilities. Credit losses on available for sale debt securities are accounted for as an allowance for credit losses, which is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value and the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The allowance for credit losses on loans and available for sale debt securities and the reserve for unfunded commitments are established through a provision for credit losses charged against earnings. Amounts reported for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are in accordance with ASC 326, whereas amounts reported for periods prior to January 1, 2023 are presented in accordance with the previously applicable GAAP.

The increase in non-pass rated loans at March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was due primarily to the day-one amortized cost basis adjustment on certain purchased loans with credit deterioration (PCD loans) upon the adoption of ASC 326 of $580,000, partially offset by repayments.

The community banking segment’s nonaccrual loans were $262,000 at March 31, 2023 compared to $115,000 at December 31, 2022.  The community banking segment recorded $450,000 in provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2023 due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio. The community banking segment recorded a net reversal of provision for credit losses of $700,000 for the same period in 2022 due primarily to the resolution of certain impaired loans, which resulted in no losses being realized, and the reduction of certain qualitative adjustments to reserves. At March 31, 2023, the allowance for credit losses increased to $15.0 million, compared to an allowance for loan losses of $14.5 million at December 31, 2022, due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio and the adoption of CECL, which resulted in an implementation adjustment on January 1, 2023 of $85,000. Management believes that the level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected.

Nonaccrual loans at the consumer finance segment were $647,000 at March 31, 2023, compared to $925,000 at December 31, 2022. Nonaccrual consumer finance loans remain low relative to the allowance for credit losses and the total consumer finance loan portfolio because the consumer finance segment generally initiates repossession of loan collateral once a loan becomes more than 60 days delinquent.  Repossessed vehicles of the consumer finance segment are classified as other assets and consist only of vehicles the Corporation has the legal right to sell.  Prior to the reclassification from loans to repossessed vehicles, the difference between the carrying amount of each loan and the fair value of each vehicle (i.e. the deficiency) is charged against the allowance for credit losses. At March 31, 2023, repossessed vehicles available for sale totaled $499,000, compared to $352,000 at December 31, 2022.

The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 1.77 percent of average total loans for the first quarter of 2023, compared to 0.59 percent for the year ended December 31, 2022, due primarily to an increase in the number of delinquent loans following a period of historically low delinquencies during the COVID-19 pandemic, a decline in wholesale values of used automobiles from a recent peak during the COVID-19 pandemic and continued recent challenges in repossessing automobiles due to a decline in the number of repossession agencies, which results in a fully charged-off loan when the automobile cannot be repossessed.  At March 31, 2023, total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans was 2.33 percent, compared to 2.78 percent at December 31, 2022 and 1.71 percent at March 31, 2022.  The allowance for credit losses was $25.9 million at March 31, 2023, compared to an allowance for loan losses of $26.0 million at December 31, 2022. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans decreased to 5.45 percent at March 31, 2023, compared to an allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans of 5.47 percent at December 31, 2022, primarily as a result of growth in loans with stronger credit quality while balances of loans with lower credit quality declined, partially offset by the adoption of CECL, which resulted in an implementation adjustment on January 1, 2023 of $406,000.  

As discussed above, the consumer finance segment at times offers payment deferrals to borrowers as a portfolio management technique to achieve higher ultimate cash collections on select loan accounts. Average amounts of payment deferrals on a monthly basis, which are not included in delinquent loans, were 1.60 percent and 1.50 percent as a percentage of average automobile loans outstanding for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively.  

The consumer finance segment is an indirect lender that provides automobile financing through lending programs that are designed to serve customers in both the prime and “non-prime” markets, including those who may have limited access to traditional automobile financing due to having experienced prior credit difficulties. The preferred automobile is a later

57

model, low mileage used vehicle because the value of new vehicles typically depreciates rapidly. In addition to automobile financing, marine and RV loan contracts are also purchased on an indirect basis through a referral program administered by a third party. The marine and RV loan contracts are for prime loans averaging less than $50,000 made to individuals with higher credit scores.

The consumer finance segment’s focus has included non-prime borrowers and, therefore, the anticipated rates of delinquencies, defaults, repossessions and losses on the consumer finance loans are higher than those experienced in the general automobile finance industry and could be more dramatically affected by changes in general economic conditions. Changes in economic conditions may also affect consumer demand for used automobiles and values of automobiles securing outstanding loans, due to changes in demand or changes in levels of inventory of used automobiles, which may directly affect the amount of a loss incurred by the consumer finance segment in the event of default. While we manage the higher risk inherent in loans made to non-prime borrowers through the underwriting criteria, portfolio management and collection methods employed by the consumer finance segment, we cannot guarantee that these criteria or methods will afford adequate protection against these risks. Beginning in 2016 with the consumer finance segment’s implementation of a scorecard model for purchasing loan contracts, the credit-worthiness of borrowers at origination has improved for automobile loans purchased and the level of credit losses experienced has decreased. We cannot provide any assurance that the consumer finance segment’s net charge-off ratio will not increase in future periods.  However, we believe that the current allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected on existing consumer finance segment loans that may become uncollectible. If factors influencing the consumer finance segment result in higher net charge-off ratios in future periods, the consumer finance segment may need to increase the level of its allowance for credit losses through additional provisions for credit losses, which could negatively affect future earnings of the consumer finance segment.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

At March 31, 2023, the Corporation had total assets of $2.4 billion, which was an increase of $108.0 million since December 31, 2022. The increase was attributable primarily to growth in loans held for investment and loans held for sale, funded in part by accessing brokered deposits and short-term borrowings. The significant components of the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheets are discussed below.

Securities

The investment portfolio plays a primary role in the management of the Corporation’s interest rate sensitivity. In addition, the portfolio serves as a source of liquidity and is used as needed to meet collateral requirements. The investment portfolio consists of securities available for sale, which may be sold in response to changes in market interest rates, changes in prepayment risk, increases in loan demand, general liquidity needs and other similar factors. These securities are carried at estimated fair value. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all securities in the Corporation’s investment portfolio were classified as available for sale.

Table 18 sets forth the composition of the Corporation’s securities available for sale in dollar amounts at fair value and as a percentage of the Corporation’s total securities available for sale at the dates indicated.

Securities available for sale increased by $1.0 million to $513.6 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $512.6 million at December 31, 2022, due primarily to purchases of obligations of states and political subdivisions. Net unrealized losses in the market value of securities available for sale were $37.9 million at March 31, 2023 and net unrealized losses in the market value of securities available for sale were $44.5 million at December 31, 2022.  The increase in market value of securities available for sale during the first quarter of 2023 was primarily a result of decreases in unrealized losses.

For more information about the Corporation's securities available for sale, including information about securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, see Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” under the heading “Note 3: Securities” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Table 19 presents additional information pertaining to the composition of the securities portfolio at amortized cost, by the earlier of contractual maturity or expected maturity.  Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

1. Yields on tax-exempt securities have been computed on a taxable-equivalent basis using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent. The weighted average yield is calculated based on the relative amortized costs of the securities.

Deposits

The Corporation’s predominant source of funds is depository accounts, which are comprised of demand deposits, savings and money market accounts and time deposits. The Corporation’s deposits are principally provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served.

During the first three months of 2023, deposits decreased $8.1 million to $2.00 billion at March 31, 2023. Noninterest bearing demand deposits decreased $9.1 million, savings and interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $113.1 million, and time deposits increased $114.1 million during the same period. This decrease in savings and interest-bearing demand deposits was due in part to a shift in balances toward time deposits as interest rates increased and to seasonal factors related to public deposits, which tend to increase with tax collections primarily in the fourth quarter of each year and decline with spending thereafter. The Corporation had $147.0 million in public deposits at March 31, 2023 compared to $178.9 million at December 31, 2022.

61

The Corporation had $25.0 million in brokered money market and time deposits outstanding at March 31, 2023 compared to $5,000 at December 31, 2022.  While traditional deposits declined during the first quarter of 2023, the Corporation may rely on brokered deposits on a limited basis as a means of maintaining and diversifying liquidity and funding sources.

Borrowings

Borrowings increased to $201.0 million at March 31, 2023 from $92.1 million at December 31, 2022 due primarily to increased short-term borrowings from the FHLB to support lending activities.

Liquidity

The objective of the Corporation’s liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to satisfy the credit needs of our customers and the demands of our depositors, creditors and investors. Stable core deposits and a strong capital position are the components of a solid foundation for the Corporation’s liquidity position. Additional sources of liquidity available to the Corporation include cash flows from operations, loan payments and payoffs, deposit growth, maturities, calls and sales of securities, the issuance of brokered certificates of deposit and the capacity to borrow additional funds.

Liquid assets, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits at other banks and nonpledged securities available for sale, totaled $188.4 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $325.7 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease in liquid assets was due in part to pledging additional securities available for sale in secured funding arrangements, as described below. The Corporation’s funding sources, including capacity, amount outstanding and amount available at March 31, 2023 are presented in Table 20.  The Corporation’s capacity and amount available increased $333.6 million and $225.7 million, respectively, from December 31, 2022 as a result of pledging additional assets, including loans and securities available for sale, in order to increase funding capacity under secured funding arrangements with the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank.

We have no reason to believe these arrangements will not be renewed at maturity. Additional loans and securities are available that can be pledged as collateral for future borrowings from the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank above the current lendable collateral value. Our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity may be affected by numerous factors, including economic conditions nationally and in our markets. Depending on our liquidity levels, our capital position, conditions in the capital markets, our business operations and initiatives, and other factors, we may from time to time consider the issuance of debt, equity or other securities or other possible capital market transactions, the proceeds of which could provide additional liquidity for our operations.

Uninsured deposits represent amounts above the FDIC limit. As of March 31, 2023, the Corporation’s uninsured deposits were approximately $584.1 million, or 29.3 percent of total deposits. Adjusted to exclude intercompany cash holdings and public deposits, which are secured with pledged investments, amounts uninsured were approximately $418.8 million, or 21.0 percent of total deposits at March 31, 2023. The Corporation’s borrowing availability as of March 31, 2023 was $658.3 million, exceeding uninsured deposits and adjusted uninsured deposits by $74.2 million and $239.5 million, respectively.

62

As a result of the Corporation’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes that the Corporation maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its operational requirements and contractual obligations.

Capital Resources

The disclosure below presents the Corporation’s and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios under currently applicable regulatory capital standards.  Under the small bank holding company policy statement of the Federal Reserve Board, which applies to certain bank holding companies with consolidated total assets of less than $3 billion, the Corporation is not subject to regulatory capital requirements. The table below reflects the Corporation’s consolidated capital as determined under regulations that apply to bank holding companies that are not small bank holding companies and minimum capital requirements that would apply to the Corporation if it were not a small bank holding company.  Although the minimum regulatory capital requirements are not applicable to the Corporation, the Corporation calculates these ratios for its own planning and monitoring purposes. Total risk-weighted assets at March 31, 2023 for the Corporation were $1.87 billion and for the Bank were $1.85 billion. Total risk-weighted assets at December 31, 2022 for the Corporation were $1.82 billion and for the Bank were $1.80 billion. As of March 31, 2023, the Corporation and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

The regulatory risk-based capital amounts presented above include:  (1) common equity tier 1 capital (CET1) which consists principally of common stock (including surplus) and retained earnings with adjustments for goodwill and intangible assets; (2) Tier 1 capital which consists principally of CET1 plus the Corporation’s “grandfathered” trust preferred securities; and (3) Tier 2 capital which consists principally of Tier 1 capital plus a limited amount of the allowance for credit losses and $24.0 million of outstanding subordinated notes of the Corporation, of which $4 million was subsequently repaid by the Corporation on April 1, 2023. The Total Capital ratio, Tier  1 Capital ratio and CET1 ratio are calculated as a percentage of risk-weighted assets.  The Tier 1 Leverage ratio is calculated as a percentage of average tangible assets.  In addition, the Corporation has made the one-time irrevocable election to continue treating accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) under regulatory standards that were in place prior to the Basel III Final Rule in order to eliminate volatility of regulatory capital that can result from fluctuations in AOCI and the inclusion of AOCI in regulatory capital, as would otherwise be required under the Basel III Capital Rule.  As a result of this election, changes in AOCI, including unrealized losses on securities available for sale, do not affect regulatory capital amounts shown in the table above for the Corporation or the Bank. For additional information about the Basel III Final Rules, see “Item 1. Business” under the heading “Regulation and Supervision” and “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” under the heading “Note 17: Regulatory Requirements and Restrictions” in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Basel III rules established a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5 percent above the regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios, which is not included in the table above.  Including the capital conservation buffer, the minimum ratios are a common equity Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 7.0 percent, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 8.5 percent, and a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5 percent.  The Corporation and the Bank exceeded these ratios at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The Corporation’s capital resources are impacted by its share repurchase programs. Under the 2022 Repurchase Program which was authorized by the Corporation’s Board of Directors during the fourth quarter of 2022, the Corporation is authorized to purchase up to $10.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock.  Repurchases under the 2022 Repurchase Program may be made through privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and/or Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and shares repurchased will be returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of common stock. The timing, number and purchase price of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management in its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the shares, general market and economic conditions, applicable legal requirements and other conditions, and there is no assurance that the Corporation will purchase any shares under the 2022 Repurchase Program. The 2022 Repurchase Program is authorized through December 31, 2023, and, as of March 31, 2023, there was $7.5 million remaining available for repurchases of the Corporation’s common stock under the 2022 Repurchase Program.

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326.  Regulatory capital rules permitted C&F Bank to phase-in the day-one effects of adopting ASC 326 over a 3-year transition period.  C&F Bank elected not to take the phase-in but rather to reduce its regulatory capital in the first quarter of 2023 for the day-one effects of adopting ASC 326 in the amount of $1.1 million.

USE OF CERTAIN NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to GAAP in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Corporation’s performance. These include net tangible income attributable to the Corporation,  ROTCE, tangible book value per share, and the following fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) measures: interest income on loans-FTE, interest income on securities-FTE, total interest income-FTE and net interest income-FTE. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent that was applicable for all periods presented.

Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different

64

sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation to evaluate and measure the Corporation’s performance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below.

Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from historical results or those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements, or that the beliefs, assumptions and expectations underlying such forward-looking statements will be proven to be accurate. Forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this report and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date on which the statement was made, except as otherwise required by law.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Corporation’s primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility.  A description of the Corporation’s interest rate risk and its asset/liability management process for monitoring and managing this risk can be found in Item 7A of Part II in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.  The Corporation recognizes that recent increases in interest rates and other changes have affected its sensitivity to interest rate risk as measured by the simulation analysis and economic value of equity analysis included in Item 7A of Part II in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.  The Corporation’s process for monitoring and managing this risk remains consistent with the description provided as of December 31, 2022, and the Corporation’s risk profile with respect to interest rates as of March 31, 2023 has not changed materially compared to December 31, 2022.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Corporation’s 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 the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Corporation or its subsidiary to disclose material information required to be set forth in the Corporation’s periodic reports.

The Corporation adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” and related updates,

67

as described further in Note 2 to the consolidated interim financial statements, effective January 1, 2023. Related to the adoption of these new accounting standards, the Corporation modified certain internal controls and designed and implemented certain new internal controls over the measurement of the allowance for credit losses on loans and the reserve for unfunded commitments and related disclosures. New internal controls related primarily to the modeling of expected credit losses on loans, including controls over critical data and other inputs and model results. There were no other changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes in the risk factors faced by the Corporation from those disclosed in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as set forth below.

Our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected by developments impacting the financial services industry, such as recent bank failures or concerns involving liquidity.

Recent events in the financial services industry (including the closures of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank) have caused general uncertainty and concern regarding the adequacy of liquidity of the financial services industry generally. While we rely on different sources of funding to meet potential liquidity needs, our business strategies are largely based on access to funding from customer deposits and supplemental funding provided by wholesale or other secondary liquidity sources. Deposit levels may be affected by various industry factors, including interest rates paid by competitors, general interest rate levels, returns available to customers on alternative investments, conditions in the financial services industry specifically and general economic conditions that impact the amount of liquidity in the economy and savings levels, and also by factors that impact customers’ perception of our financial condition and capital and liquidity levels. In response to the closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Treasury approved actions enabling the FDIC to complete its resolution of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in a manner that fully protected depositors by utilizing the Deposit Insurance Fund, and the Federal Reserve announced it would make available additional funding for eligible depository institutions to help assure banks have the ability to meet the needs of their depositors. It is uncertain whether these steps by the banking regulators will be sufficient to calm the financial markets and financial services industry generally, prevent further bank closures, or reduce the risk of deposit outflows, and particularly sudden deposit outflows, from banks. As a result of this uncertainty, we face the potential for deposit outflows, increased borrowing and funding costs, and increased competition for liquidity, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our financial performance or financial condition.

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The Corporation’s Board of Directors authorized a program, effective December 1, 2022, to repurchase up to $10.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock through December 31, 2023 (the 2022 Repurchase Program).  Repurchases under the 2022 Repurchase Program may be made through privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and/or Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act and shares repurchased will be returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of common stock. There were 35,984 shares repurchased under the 2022 Repurchase Program during the first quarter of 2023.  As of March 31, 2023, the Corporation has made aggregate common stock repurchases of 43,947 shares for an aggregate cost of $2.5 million under the 2022 Repurchase Program.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). They do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the C&F Financial Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (2022 Annual Report).  The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to U.S. GAAP and to predominant practices within the banking industry and are primarily disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report, except as described in Note 2 related to the adoption of new accounting standards.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of C&F Financial Corporation (the Corporation), its direct wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens and Farmers Bank (the Bank or C&F Bank) and indirect subsidiaries that are wholly-owned or controlled. Subsidiaries that are less than wholly owned are fully consolidated if they are controlled by the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries, and the portion of any subsidiary not owned by the Corporation is reported as noncontrolling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Corporation owns all of the common stock of C&F Financial Statutory Trust I, C&F Financial Statutory Trust II and Central Virginia Bankshares Statutory Trust I, all of which are unconsolidated subsidiaries. The subordinated debt owed to these trusts is reported as liabilities of the Corporation.  

Nature of Operations: The Corporation is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Corporation owns all of the stock of its subsidiary, C&F Bank, which is an independent commercial bank chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

C&F Bank has five wholly-owned subsidiaries: C&F Mortgage Corporation (C&F Mortgage), C&F Finance Company (C&F Finance), C&F Wealth Management Corporation (C&F Wealth Management), C&F Insurance Services, Inc. (C&F Insurance) and CVB Title Services, Inc. (CVB Title), all incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. C&F Mortgage, organized in September 1995, originates and sells residential mortgages, provides mortgage loan origination services to third-party lenders and, through its subsidiary Certified Appraisals LLC, provides ancillary mortgage loan production services for residential appraisals. C&F Mortgage owns a 51 percent interest in C&F Select LLC, which was organized in January 2019 and is also engaged in the business of originating and selling residential mortgages. C&F Finance, acquired in September 2002, is a finance company purchasing automobile, marine and recreational vehicle (RV) loans through indirect lending programs. C&F Wealth Management, organized in April 1995, is a full-service brokerage firm offering a comprehensive range of wealth management services and insurance products through third-party service providers. C&F Insurance and CVB Title were organized for the primary purpose of owning equity interests in an independent insurance agency and a full service title and settlement agency, respectively. Business segment data is presented in Note 11.

Basis of Presentation: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses and evaluation of goodwill for impairment. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations in these financial statements, have been made.

Reclassification: Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.  None of these reclassifications are considered material and did not affect net income or total equity.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Corporation recognizes derivative financial instruments at fair value as either an other asset or other liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments include (1) interest rate swaps that qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges on the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes, (2) interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers and dealer counterparties and (3) interest rate contracts arising from mortgage banking activities, including interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) on mortgage loans. The gain or loss on the Corporation’s cash flow hedges is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of deferred income taxes, and reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. IRLCs and interest rate swaps with loan customers and dealer counterparties are not designated as hedging instruments, and therefore changes in the fair value of these instruments are reported as noninterest income. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are described more fully in Note 13.

Recent Significant Accounting Pronouncements:

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.”  Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. This guidance provides temporary, optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential burden in accounting for modifications of loan contracts, borrowings, hedging relationships and other transactions related to reference rate reform associated with the LIBOR transition if certain criteria are met. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024 and can be adopted at an instrument level. The Corporation has utilized certain optional expedients and exceptions under Topic 848 in the case of modifications to certain loans, borrowings and cash flow hedges during 2022 and 2023. These modifications have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not currently expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

NOTE 2: Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments,” ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief,” ASU 2019-10, “Financial instruments—Credit losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)—Effective dates,” ASU 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,” ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842),” ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments”  and ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (collectively, ASC 326).

ASC 326 introduced an approach based on current expected credit losses (CECL) to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, replacing the incurred loss methodology from prior GAAP. It also applies to unfunded commitments to extend credit, including loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and other similar instruments. It modified the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provided for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination.  It also modified the measurement principles for modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, including how the allowance for credit losses (ACL) is measured for such loans.

The amendments of ASC 326, upon adoption, were applied on a modified retrospective basis, recording an increase in the reported balance of loans and the allowance for credit losses on loans, recognizing a liability for credit losses on commitments to extend credit, and reducing total equity of both the Corporation and of C&F Bank, which resulted in a reduction of regulatory capital of C&F Bank.  As a result of adopting ASC 326, the Corporation recorded a decrease to opening retained earnings of $1.1 million.

ASC 326 also replaced the Corporation’s previous accounting policies for purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loans and troubled-debt restructurings (TDRs). With the adoption of ASC 326, loans previously designated as PCI loans were designated as purchased loans with credit deterioration (PCD loans). The Corporation adopted ASC 326 using the prospective transition approach for PCD loans that were previously identified as PCI and accounted for under ASC 310-30. On January 1, 2023, the Corporation’s PCD loans were adjusted to reflect the addition of $604,000 of expected credit losses to the amortized cost basis of the loans and a corresponding increase to the ACL. The remaining noncredit discount, the difference between the adjusted amortized cost basis and the outstanding principal balance on PCD loans, will be accreted into interest income over the estimated remaining lives of the loans using the effective interest rate method. The evaluation of the ACL will include PCD loans together with other loans that share similar risk characteristics, rather than using the separate pools that were used under PCI accounting. The adoption of ASC 326 also replaced previous TDR accounting guidance, and the evaluation of the ACL will include loans previously designated as TDRs together with other loans that share similar risk characteristics.    

The adoption of ASC 326 did not affect the carrying value of debt securities or the amount of unrealized gains and losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Upon adoption of ASC 326, the Corporation did not have any securities included in its portfolio where other-than-temporary-impairments had previously been recognized or that required an ACL.

The following table illustrates the impact of adopting ASC 326.

The following accounting policies have been updated in connection with the adoption of ASC 326 and apply to periods beginning after December 31, 2022. Accounting policies applying to prior periods are described in the 2022 Annual Report, as discussed above.

Securities: Investments in debt securities are classified as either held to maturity, available for sale, or trading, based on management’s intent. Currently all of the Corporation’s debt securities are classified as available for sale. Available for sale debt securities are carried at estimated fair value with the corresponding unrealized gains and losses recognized in

other comprehensive income (loss). Gains or losses are recognized in net income on the trade date using the amortized cost of the specific security sold. Purchase premiums are recognized in interest income using the effective interest rate method over the period from purchase to maturity or, for callable securities, the earliest call date, and purchase discounts are recognized in the same manner from purchase to maturity.  

Impairment of debt securities occurs when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost. The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis. For debt securities available for sale, impairment is recognized in its entirety in net income if either (i) we intend to sell the security or (ii) it is more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If, however, the Corporation does not intend to sell the security and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Corporation will be required to sell the security before recovery, the Corporation evaluates unrealized losses to determine whether a decline in fair value below amortized cost basis is a result of a credit loss, which occurs when the amortized cost basis of the security exceeds the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security, or other factors such as changes in market interest rates. If a credit loss exists, an allowance for credit losses is recorded that reflects the amount of the impairment related to credit losses, limited by the amount by which the security’s amortized cost basis exceeds its fair value. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in net income in the period of change and are included in provision for credit losses. Changes in the fair value of debt securities available for sale not resulting from credit losses are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The Corporation regularly reviews unrealized losses in its investments in securities and cash flows expected to be collected from impaired securities based on criteria including the extent to which market value is below amortized cost, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer, the Corporation’s intention with regard to holding the security to maturity and the likelihood that the Corporation would be required to sell the security before recovery.

Loans Held for Investment: The Corporation makes mortgage, commercial and consumer loans to customers. The Corporation’s recorded investment in loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally is reported at the unpaid principal balances adjusted for charges-offs, unearned discounts, any deferred fees or costs on originated loans, and the allowance for credit losses. The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis. Interest on loans is credited to operations based on the principal amount outstanding. Loan fees and origination costs are deferred and the net amount is amortized as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield using the level-yield method. The Corporation is amortizing these amounts over the estimated life of the related loans.

Loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition. In the case of loans that have experienced more than insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination as of the acquisition date, the loan’s amortized cost basis is increased above estimated fair value by the amount of expected credit losses as of the acquisition date, and a corresponding allowance for credit losses is also recorded. Any remaining non-credit discount or premium for such purchased loans with credit deterioration (or PCD loans) and any fair value discount or premium for non-PCD loans is accreted or amortized as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans using the level-yield method. There is no allowance for credit losses established at the acquisition date for non-PCD loans.

A loan’s past due status is based on the contractual due date of the most delinquent payment due.  Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when the collection of principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, or earlier, if collection is uncertain based on an evaluation of the net realizable value of the collateral and the financial strength of the borrower. Any accrued interest receivable on loans placed on nonaccrual status is reversed by an adjustment to interest income.  Loans greater than 90 days past due may remain on accrual status if management determines it has adequate collateral to cover the principal and interest. For those loans that are carried on nonaccrual status, payments are first applied to principal outstanding.  A loan may be returned to accrual status if the borrower has demonstrated a sustained period of repayment performance in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan and there is reasonable assurance the borrower will continue to make payments as agreed.  These policies are applied consistently across our loan portfolio.

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has entered into commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets when they are funded.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans: The allowance for credit losses on loans is established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance for credit losses for the

difference between the carrying value of the loan and the estimated net realizable value or fair value of the collateral, if collateral dependent, when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance represents management’s current estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual term of loans held for investment, and is recorded at an amount that, in management’s judgment, reduces the recorded investment in loans to the net amount expected to be collected. No allowance for credit loss is recorded on accrued interest receivable and amounts written-off are reversed by an adjustment to interest income. Management’s judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of historical loan losses, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts relevant to the collectability of loans. Loans that share common risk characteristics are evaluated collectively using a discounted cash flow approach for all loans except for overdraft balances, which are evaluated using a loss rate approach.  The discounted cash flow approach used by the Corporation utilizes loan-level cash flow projections and pool-level assumptions.

For commercial (except for loans to states and political subdivisions) and consumer loans, cash flow projections and estimated expected losses are based in part on twelve-month forecasts of the national unemployment rate that are reasonable and supportable and external observations of historical loan losses. Forecasts of the national unemployment rate are derived from the Federal Open Markets Committee of the Federal Reserve Board and incorporated into the estimate of expected credit losses using a statistical regression analysis. For periods beyond those for which reasonable and supportable forecasts are available, projections are based on a reversion of the national unemployment rate from the last forecast to a historical average level over the following six months. Cash flow projections and estimated expected losses for loans to states and political subdivisions are based on external loss observations for state and municipal debt obligations. For consumer finance loans, cash flow projections and estimated expected losses reflect historical average loss experience based on internal observations for auto loans and based on external loss observations for marine and recreational vehicle loans.

Management’s estimate of the allowance for credit losses on loans that are collectively evaluated also includes a qualitative assessment of available information relevant to assessing collectability that is not captured in the loss estimation process. Factors considered by management include changes and expected changes in general market, economic and business conditions; the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; the volume and severity of delinquencies and adversely classified loan balances and the value of underlying collateral. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.  The evaluation also considers the following risk characteristics that are inherent in the loan portfolio:

● Commercial loans are comprised of mortgage loans on commercial real estate, real estate acquisition, development and constructions loans, and other business lending, and carry risks associated with the successful operation of a business or a real estate project and changes in the value of collateral. In addition to other risks associated with the ownership of real estate, the repayment of these loans may be dependent upon the profitability and cash flows of the business or project. Construction loans, which include loans to individuals for the construction of a residence that generally will be occupied by the borrower, also bear the risk that the general contractor, who may or may not be a loan customer, may be unable to finish the construction project as planned because of financial pressure unrelated to the project. In addition, there is risk associated with the value of collateral other than real estate which may depreciate over time and cannot be appraised with as much precision.

● Consumer loans are comprised primarily of residential mortgage loans and home equity lines secured by residential real estate and carry risks associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral.

● Consumer finance loans are comprised of indirect financing for purchases of automobiles and marine and recreational vehicles (RVs) and carry risks associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral, which are typically rapidly-depreciating vehicles. Consumer finance loans are more likely than real estate loans to be immediately adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy.

Loans that do not share common risk characteristics with other loans are evaluated individually and are not included in the collective analysis. The allowance for credit losses on loans that are individually evaluated may be estimated based on their expected cash flows, or, in the case of loans for which repayment is expected substantially through the operation or sale of collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, may be measured based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell.

Reserve for Unfunded Commitments: The Corporation records a reserve, reported in other liabilities, for expected credit losses on commitments to extend credit that are not unconditionally cancelable by the Corporation.  The reserve for unfunded commitments is measured based on the principles utilized in estimating the allowance for credit losses on loans and an estimate of the amount of unfunded commitments expected to be advanced. Changes in the reserve for unfunded commitments are recorded through the provision for credit losses.

NOTE 3: Securities

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326, which made changes to accounting for available for sale debt securities whereby credit losses should be presented as an allowance, rather than as a write-down when management does not intend to sell and does not believe that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell prior to maturity. In addition, ASC 326 requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to measure an expected credit loss under the CECL methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. All securities information presented as of March 31, 2023 is in accordance with ASC 326. All securities information presented as of December 31, 2022 or a prior date is presented in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. For further discussion on the Corporation’s accounting policies and policy elections related to the accounting standard update refer to Note 1 and Note 2.

The Corporation’s debt securities, all of which are classified as available for sale, are summarized as follows:

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities at March 31, 2023, by the earlier of contractual maturity or expected maturity, are shown below. The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable, totaling $2.6

million at March 31, 2023, from the amortized cost basis of securities.  Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

The Corporation pledges securities primarily to secure public deposits, repurchase agreements and lines of credit that provide liquidity to the Corporation and C&F Bank. Securities with an aggregate amortized cost of $442.64 million and an aggregate fair value of $409.40 million were pledged at March 31, 2023. Securities with an aggregate amortized cost of $237.15 million and an aggregate fair value of $213.58 million were pledged at December 31, 2022.

Securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2023, by duration of the period of the unrealized loss, are shown below.

There were 538 debt securities with a fair value below the amortized cost basis, totaling $468.29 million of aggregate fair value as of March 31, 2023. The Corporation concluded that a credit loss does not exist in its securities portfolio at March 31, 2023, and no impairment loss has been recognized based on the fact that (1) changes in fair value were caused primarily by fluctuations in interest rates, (2) securities with unrealized losses had generally high credit quality, (3) the Corporation intends to hold these investments in debt securities to maturity and it is more-likely-than-not that the Corporation will not be required to sell these investments before a recovery of its investment, and (4) issuers have continued to make timely payments of principal and interest. Additionally, the Corporation’s mortgage-backed securities are entirely issued by either U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises.  Collectively, these entities provide a guarantee, which is either explicitly or implicitly supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, that investors in such mortgage-backed securities will receive timely principal and interest payments. 

Securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2022, by duration of the period of the unrealized loss, are shown below.

The Corporation’s investment in restricted stock totaled $5.83 million at March 31, 2023 and $1.12 million at December 31, 2022 and consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) stock.  Restricted stock is generally viewed as a long-term investment, which is carried at cost because there is no market for the stock other than the FHLBs. Therefore, when evaluating restricted stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing any temporary decline in value. The Corporation did not consider its investment in restricted stock to be impaired at March 31, 2023 and no impairment has been recognized.

NOTE 4: Loans

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables. For further discussion on the Corporation’s accounting policies and policy elections related to the accounting standard update see Note 1 and Note 2. All loan information presented as of March 31, 2023 is in accordance with ASC 326. All loan information presented as of December 31, 2022 or a prior date is presented in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.

The Corporation’s loans are stated at their face amount, net of deferred fees and costs and discounts, and consist of the classes of loans included in the table below. The Corporation has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable, totaling $6.3 million at March 31, 2023, from the amortized cost basis of loans.

1 For the purposes of the table above, “Current” includes loans that are 1-29 days past due.

The table above includes nonaccrual loans that are current of $164,000, 60-89 days past due of $98,000 and 90+ days past due of $647,000.

The following table shows the Corporation’s amortized cost basis of loans on nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Corporation recognized $19,000 of interest income on loans on nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2023 and had no reversal of interest income upon placing loans on nonaccrual status during the three months ended March 31, 2023. All nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2023 had an allowance for credit loss.

Occasionally, the Corporation modifies loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties by providing principal forgiveness, term extensions, interest rate reductions or other-than-insignificant payment delays. As the effect of most modifications is already included in the allowance for credit losses due to the measurement methodologies used in its estimate, the allowance for credit losses is typically not adjusted upon modification. When principal forgiveness is provided at modification, the amount forgiven is charged against the allowance for credit losses.  In some cases, the Corporation may provide multiple types of modifications on one loan and when multiple types of modifications occur within the same period, the combination of modifications is separately reported.

Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty (or modified loans) during the three months ended March 31, 2023 included a combination of term extensions and interest rate reductions of commercial real estate loans with a recorded investment of $47,000, or less than one percent of all commercial real estate loans, at March 31, 2023.  The modified loans’ weighted-average interest rate was reduced from 8.75 percent to 8.0 percent and the weighted-average term extension was 4.9 years.

The Corporation closely monitors the performance of modified loans to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts.  Upon the determination that all or a portion of a modified loan is uncollectible, that amount is charged against the allowance for credit losses. There were no payment defaults during the three months ended March 31, 2023 of modified loans that were modified during the previous twelve months and all are current as of March 31, 2023.

Prior to the adoption of ASC 326

Allowance for Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses

NOTE 5: Allowance for Credit Losses

On January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted ASC 326. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost. For further discussion on the Corporation’s accounting policies and policy elections related to the accounting standard update see Note 1 and Note 2. All allowance for credit loss information presented as of March 31, 2023 is in accordance with ASC 326. All allowance for credit loss information presented as of December 31, 2022 or a prior date is presented in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.

The following table shows the allowance for credit losses activity by loan portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2023:

Commercial and consumer loans are assigned loan classification ratings based on their credit quality and risk of loss. These loan ratings are reviewed on a quarterly basis and updated as new information becomes available. The characteristics of these loan ratings are as follows:

● Pass rated loans are to persons or business entities with an acceptable financial condition, appropriate collateral margins, appropriate cash flow to service the existing loan, and an appropriate leverage ratio. The borrower has paid all obligations as agreed and it is expected that this type of payment history will continue. When necessary, acceptable personal guarantors support the loan.

● Special mention loans have a specific, identified weakness in the borrower’s operations and in the borrower’s ability to generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis. The borrower’s recent payment history may be characterized by late payments. The Corporation’s risk exposure is mitigated by collateral supporting the loan. The collateral is considered to be well-margined, well maintained, accessible and readily marketable.

● Substandard loans are considered to have specific and well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the viability of the Corporation’s credit extension. The payment history for the loan has been inconsistent and the expected or projected primary repayment source may be inadequate to service the loan. The estimated net liquidation value of the collateral pledged and/or ability of the personal guarantor(s) to pay the loan may not adequately protect the Corporation. There is a distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies associated with the loan are not corrected in the near term. A substandard loan would not automatically meet the Corporation’s definition of impaired unless the loan is significantly past due and the borrower’s performance and financial condition provide evidence that it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due.

● Substandard nonaccrual loans have the same characteristics as substandard loans; however, they have a nonaccrual classification because it is probable that the Corporation will not be able to collect all amounts due.

● Doubtful rated loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan that is classified substandard but with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high.

● Loss rated loans are not considered collectible under normal circumstances and there is no realistic expectation for any future payment on the loan. Loss rated loans are fully charged off.

For consumer finance loans, the Corporation utilizes credit scores based on the methods developed and defined by the Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) as a key indicator of the risk of loss to manage the portfolio and estimate the allowance for credit losses.  A FICO Score is a three-digit number based on the information in an applicant’s credit reports. It helps lenders determine how likely an applicant is to repay a loan. This, in turn, affects the loan amount that may be approved, repayment terms, and interest rate. Consumer finance loans are assigned a credit rating based on borrowers’ credit scores at the time of origination and are categorized within ranges of credit ratings used internally that parallel FICO Score rating bands. The Corporation monitors the consumer finance loan portfolio by past due status (refer to Note 4) and by credit rating at the time of origination, which the Corporation believes serves as a relevant indicator of aggregate credit quality and risk of loan defaults in the portfolio based upon the use of FICO Scores over time for loan approval decisions and through experience analyzing loss patterns. The characteristics of these credit ratings are as follows:

● Very Good and Good credit rated borrowers are near or above the average FICO Score of consumers. Borrowers generally have limited to no prior credit difficulties or have shown extensive creditworthiness over a recent period of time.

● Fairly Good and Fair credit rated borrowers are approaching or slightly below the average FICO Score of consumers but typically have a credit profile acceptable to most lenders. Borrowers may have experienced minor credit difficulties or have a relatively limited credit history.

● Marginal credit rated borrowers are well below the average FICO Score of consumers. Borrowers may have limited access to traditional financing due to having experienced prior credit difficulties or have a limited credit history. The risk of future charge-offs is higher.

1 Gross charge-offs of other consumer loans for the three months ended March 31, 2023 included $81,000 of demand deposit overdrafts that originated in 2023.

Gross charge-offs increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due primarily to higher charge-offs within the consumer finance-automobile portfolio segment as a result of an increase in the number of delinquent loans following a period of historically low delinquencies during the COVID-19 pandemic, a decline in wholesale values of used automobiles from a recent peak during the COVID-19 pandemic and continued recent challenges in repossessing automobiles due to a decline in the number of repossession agencies, which results in a fully charged-off loan when the automobile cannot be repossessed.

As of March 31, 2023, the Corporation had no collateral dependent loans for which repayment was expected to be derived substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

NOTE 10: Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. U.S. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. U.S. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three levels. These levels are:

● Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt securities traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasury securities.

● Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

● Level 3—Valuation is determined using model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Corporation’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the respective asset or liability. Valuation techniques may include the use of pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

U.S. GAAP allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value (the fair value option) for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis.  The Corporation has elected to use fair value accounting for its entire portfolio of loans held for sale (LHFS).

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following describes the valuation techniques and inputs used by the Corporation in determining the fair value of certain assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

Securities available for sale. The Corporation primarily values its investment portfolio using Level 2 fair value measurements, but may also use Level 1 or Level 3 measurements if required by the composition of the portfolio. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Corporation’s entire securities portfolio was comprised of investments in debt securities classified as available for sale, which were valued using Level 2 fair value measurements. The Corporation has contracted with third party portfolio accounting service vendors for valuation of its securities portfolio. The vendors’ sources for security valuation are ICE Data Services (ICE), Refinitiv, and Bloomberg Valuation Service (BVAL).  Each source provides opinions, known as evaluated prices, as to the value of individual securities based on model-based pricing techniques that are partially based on available market data, including prices for similar instruments in active markets and prices for identical assets in markets that are not active. ICE provides evaluated prices for the Corporation’s obligations of states and political subdivisions category of securities.  ICE uses proprietary pricing models and pricing systems, mathematical tools and judgment to determine an evaluated price for a security based upon a hierarchy of market information regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.  Refinitiv and BVAL provide evaluated prices for the Corporation’s U.S. treasury, government agencies and corporations, mortgage-backed, and corporate categories of securities.  U.S. treasury securities and fixed-rate callable securities of U.S. government agencies and corporations are individually evaluated on an option adjusted spread basis for callable issues or on a nominal spread basis incorporating the term structure of agency market spreads and the appropriate risk free benchmark curve for non-callable issues.  Pass-through mortgage-backed securities (MBS) in the mortgage-backed category are grouped into aggregate categories defined by issuer program, weighted average coupon, and weighted average maturity.  Each aggregate is benchmarked to relative to-be-announced mortgage-backed securities (TBA securities) or other benchmark prices. TBA securities prices are obtained from market makers and live trading systems. Collateralized mortgage obligations in the mortgage-backed category are individually evaluated based upon a hierarchy of security specific information and market data regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.  Each evaluation is determined using an option adjusted spread and

prepayment model based on volatility-driven, multi-dimensional spread tables. Fixed-rate securities issued by the Small Business Association in the mortgage backed category are individually evaluated based upon a hierarchy of security specific information and market data regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.

Other investments. The Corporation holds equity investments in funds that provide debt and equity financing to small businesses. These investments are recorded at fair value and included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.  Changes in fair value are recognized in net income.  The funds are managed by investment companies, and the net asset value of each fund is reported regularly by the investment companies. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the combined fair value of these investments was $2.24 million and $2.16 million, respectively.  These investments, measured at net asset value, are not presented in the tables below related to fair value measurements. Changes in fair value of these investments resulted in the recognition of unrealized gains of $115,000 and $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Corporation also holds certain equity investments consisting of equity interests in an independent insurance agency and a full service title and settlement agency (collectively, the agencies). These investments are subject to contractual sale restrictions that only permit the sale of the investments back to the agencies themselves.  These investments are recorded at fair value and included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of these investments was $3.43 million and $3.65 million, respectively. These investments are recorded at fair value based on the contractual redemption value of Corporation’s proportionate share of the agencies’ equity.  Changes in fair value are recognized in net income and resulted in the recognition of unrealized losses of $11,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.  The Corporation’s investments in these agencies are classified as Level 2.

Loans held for sale. Fair value of the Corporation’s LHFS is based on observable market prices for similar instruments traded in the secondary mortgage loan markets in which the Corporation conducts business. The Corporation’s portfolio of LHFS is classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset - IRLCs. The Corporation recognizes IRLCs at fair value. Fair value of IRLCs is based on either (i) the price of the underlying loans obtained from an investor for loans that will be delivered on a best efforts basis or (ii) the observable price for individual loans traded in the secondary market for loans that will be delivered on a mandatory basis. All of the Corporation’s IRLCs are classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset/liability – interest rate swaps on loans. The Corporation recognizes interest rate swaps at fair value.  The Corporation has contracted with a third party vendor to provide valuations for these interest rate swaps using the discounted cash flow method. All of the Corporation’s interest rate swaps on loans are classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset/liability – cash flow hedges. The Corporation recognizes cash flow hedges at fair value. The Corporation has contracted with a third party vendor to provide valuations for these cash flow hedges using the discounted cash flow method.  All of the Corporation’s cash flow hedges are classified as Level 2.

The following table presents the balances of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of forward sales of mortgage loans were not material to the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Corporation may be required, from time to time, to measure and recognize certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following describes the valuation techniques and inputs used by the Corporation in determining the fair value of certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO). Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure. Initial fair value is based upon appraisals the Corporation obtains from independent licensed appraisers. Subsequent to foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations of the foreclosed assets based on updated appraisals, general market conditions, recent sales of similar properties, length of time the properties have been held, and our ability and intent with regard to continued ownership of the properties. The Corporation may incur additional write-downs of foreclosed assets to fair value less estimated costs to sell if valuations indicate a further deterioration in market conditions. As such, the Corporation records OREO as a nonrecurring fair value measurement classified as Level 3.

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there was no OREO that was measured at fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not required to be measured and reported at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Corporation. The Corporation uses the exit price notion in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following tables reflect the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments whether or not recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value.

NOTE 11: Business Segments

The Corporation operates in a decentralized fashion in three business segments: community banking, mortgage banking and consumer finance. The community banking segment comprises C&F Bank, C&F Wealth Management, C&F Insurance and CVB Title.  Revenues from community banking operations consist primarily of net interest income related to investments in loans and securities and outstanding deposits and borrowings, fees earned on deposit accounts, debit card interchange activity, and net revenues from offering wealth management services and insurance products through third-party service providers.  Through C&F Mortgage, mortgage banking operating revenues consist principally of gains on sales of loans in the secondary market, mortgage banking fee income related to loan originations, fees earned by providing mortgage loan origination functions to third-party lenders, and net interest income on mortgage loans held for sale. Revenues from consumer finance operations through C&F Finance consist primarily of net interest income earned on purchased retail installment sales contracts.

The standalone Corporation’s revenues and expenses are comprised primarily of interest expense associated with the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes and subordinated debt, general corporate expenses, and changes in the value of the rabbi trust and deferred compensation liability related to its nonqualified deferred compensation plan.  The results of the Corporation, which includes funding and operating costs that are not allocated to the business segments, are included in the column labeled “Other” in the tables below.

The community banking segment extends two warehouse lines of credit to the mortgage banking segment, providing a portion of the funds needed to originate mortgage loans. The community banking segment charges the mortgage banking segment interest at the daily FHLB advance rate plus a spread ranging from 50 basis points to 175 basis points. The community banking segment also provides the consumer finance segment with a portion of the funds needed to purchase loan contracts by means of variable rate notes that carry interest at one-month term SOFR plus 211.5 basis points, with a floor of 3.5 percent and a ceiling of 6.0 percent, and fixed rate notes that carry interest at rates ranging from 2.8 percent to 5.1 percent. The community banking segment acquires certain residential real estate loans from the mortgage banking segment at prices similar to those paid by third-party investors. These transactions are eliminated to reach consolidated totals. In addition to unallocated expenses recorded by the holding company, certain overhead costs are incurred by the community banking segment and are not allocated to the mortgage banking and consumer finance segments.

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

NOTE 12: Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Corporation enters into commitments to extend credit in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, including loan commitments and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.  Collateral is obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the customer.

Loan commitments are agreements to extend credit to a customer provided that there are no violations of the terms of the contract prior to funding. Commitments have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the customer. Because many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of loan commitments at the Bank was $413.78 million at March 31, 2023 and $394.75 million at December 31, 2022, which does not include IRLCs at the mortgage banking segment, which are discussed in Note 13.

Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The total contract amount of standby letters of credit, whose contract amounts represent credit risk, was $15.06 million at March 31, 2023 and $16.26 million at December 31, 2022.

The mortgage banking segment sells the majority of the residential mortgage loans it originates to third-party investors. Additionally, the community banking segment purchases residential mortgage loans from the mortgage banking segment under terms and conditions similar to third-party investors. As is customary in the industry, the agreements with these investors require the mortgage banking segment to extend representations and warranties with respect to program compliance, borrower misrepresentation, fraud, and early payment performance. Under the agreements, the investors are entitled to make loss claims and repurchase requests of the mortgage banking segment for loans that contain covered deficiencies. The mortgage banking segment has obtained early payment default recourse waivers for a portion of its business. Recourse periods for early payment default for the remaining investors vary from 90 days up to one year. Recourse periods for borrower misrepresentation or fraud, or underwriting error do not have a stated time limit. The mortgage banking segment maintains an allowance for indemnifications that represents management’s estimate of losses that are probable of arising under these recourse provisions. As performance data for loans that have been sold is not made available to the mortgage banking segment by the investors, the estimate of potential losses is inherently subjective and is based on historical indemnification payments and management’s assessment of current conditions that may contribute to indemnified losses on mortgage loans that have been sold in the secondary market.  For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Corporation recorded no provision for indemnifications and a reversal of provision for

indemnifications of $583,000, respectively, which is included in “Noninterest Expenses – Other” on the Consolidated Statements of Income. No indemnification payments were made during the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022. The allowance for indemnifications was $2.39 million at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

NOTE 13: Derivative Financial Instruments

The Corporation uses derivative financial instruments primarily to manage risks to the Corporation associated with changing interest rates, and to assist customers with their risk management objectives. The Corporation designates certain interest rate swaps as hedging instruments in qualifying cash flow hedges.  The changes in fair value of these designated hedging instruments is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss).  Derivative contracts that are not designated in a qualifying hedging relationship include customer accommodation loan swaps and contracts related to mortgage banking activities.

Cash flow hedges.  The Corporation designates interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges when they are used to manage exposure to variability in cash flows on variable rate borrowings such as the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes. These interest rate swaps are derivative financial instruments that manage the risk of variability in cash flows by exchanging variable-rate interest payments on a notional amount of the Corporation’s borrowings for fixed-rate interest payments.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are expected to be highly effective in offsetting the effect of changes in interest rates on the amount of variable-rate interest payments, and the Corporation assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship quarterly. If the Corporation determines that a cash flow hedge is no longer highly effective, future changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument would be reported in earnings. As of March 31, 2023, the Corporation has designated cash flow hedges to manage its exposure to variability in cash flows on certain variable rate borrowings for periods that end between June 2024 and June 2029.

All interest rate swaps were entered into with counterparties that met the Corporation’s credit standards and the agreements contain collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Corporation believes that the credit risk inherent in these derivative contracts is not significant.

Unrealized gains or losses recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) related to cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. When a designated hedging instrument is terminated and the hedged interest payments remain probable of occurring, any remaining unrecognized gain or loss in other comprehensive income (loss) is reclassified into earnings in the period(s) during which the forecasted interest payments affect earnings.  Amounts reclassified into earnings and interest receivable or payable under designated interest rate swaps are reported in interest expense.  The Corporation does not expect any unrealized losses related to cash flow hedges to be reclassified into earnings in the next twelve months.  

Loan swaps.  The Bank also enters into interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers to meet their interest rate risk management needs. The Bank simultaneously enters into interest rate swaps with dealer counterparties, with identical notional amounts and offsetting terms. The net result of these interest rate swaps is that the customer pays a fixed rate of interest and the Corporation receives a floating rate. These back-to-back loan swaps are derivative financial instruments and are reported at fair value in “other assets” and “other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Changes in the fair value of loan swaps are recorded in other noninterest income and sum to zero because of the offsetting terms of swaps with borrowers and swaps with dealer counterparties.

Mortgage banking.  The mortgage banking segment enters into IRLCs with customers to originate loans for which the interest rates are determined (or “locked”) prior to funding. The mortgage banking segment is exposed to interest rate risk through fixed-rate IRLCs and mortgage loans from the time that interest rates are locked until the loans are sold in the secondary market. The mortgage banking segment mitigates this interest rate risk by entering into forward sales contracts with investors, which at times includes the community banking segment, at the time that interest rates are locked for mortgage loans to be delivered on a best efforts basis. IRLCs are derivative financial instruments and are reported at fair value in other assets and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, along with the changes in fair value of the related forward sales of loans.  Changes in the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives are recorded as a component of gains on sales of loans.

At March 31, 2023, the mortgage banking segment had $70.54 million of IRLCs and $30.12 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $100.66 million in mortgage loans.  

At December 31, 2022, the mortgage banking segment had $42.28 million of IRLCs and $16.41 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $58.69 million in mortgage loans.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). They do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the C&F Financial Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (2022 Annual Report).  The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to U.S. GAAP and to predominant practices within the banking industry and are primarily disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report, except as described in Note 2 related to the adoption of new accounting standards.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of C&F Financial Corporation (the Corporation), its direct wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens and Farmers Bank (the Bank or C&F Bank) and indirect subsidiaries that are wholly-owned or controlled. Subsidiaries that are less than wholly owned are fully consolidated if they are controlled by the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries, and the portion of any subsidiary not owned by the Corporation is reported as noncontrolling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Corporation owns all of the common stock of C&F Financial Statutory Trust I, C&F Financial Statutory Trust II and Central Virginia Bankshares Statutory Trust I, all of which are unconsolidated subsidiaries. The subordinated debt owed to these trusts is reported as liabilities of the Corporation.  

Nature of Operations

Nature of Operations: The Corporation is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Corporation owns all of the stock of its subsidiary, C&F Bank, which is an independent commercial bank chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

C&F Bank has five wholly-owned subsidiaries: C&F Mortgage Corporation (C&F Mortgage), C&F Finance Company (C&F Finance), C&F Wealth Management Corporation (C&F Wealth Management), C&F Insurance Services, Inc. (C&F Insurance) and CVB Title Services, Inc. (CVB Title), all incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. C&F Mortgage, organized in September 1995, originates and sells residential mortgages, provides mortgage loan origination services to third-party lenders and, through its subsidiary Certified Appraisals LLC, provides ancillary mortgage loan production services for residential appraisals. C&F Mortgage owns a 51 percent interest in C&F Select LLC, which was organized in January 2019 and is also engaged in the business of originating and selling residential mortgages. C&F Finance, acquired in September 2002, is a finance company purchasing automobile, marine and recreational vehicle (RV) loans through indirect lending programs. C&F Wealth Management, organized in April 1995, is a full-service brokerage firm offering a comprehensive range of wealth management services and insurance products through third-party service providers. C&F Insurance and CVB Title were organized for the primary purpose of owning equity interests in an independent insurance agency and a full service title and settlement agency, respectively. Business segment data is presented in Note 11.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses and evaluation of goodwill for impairment. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations in these financial statements, have been made.

Reclassification

Reclassification: Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.  None of these reclassifications are considered material and did not affect net income or total equity.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Corporation recognizes derivative financial instruments at fair value as either an other asset or other liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments include (1) interest rate swaps that qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges on the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes, (2) interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers and dealer counterparties and (3) interest rate contracts arising from mortgage banking activities, including interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) on mortgage loans. The gain or loss on the Corporation’s cash flow hedges is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of deferred income taxes, and reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. IRLCs and interest rate swaps with loan customers and dealer counterparties are not designated as hedging instruments, and therefore changes in the fair value of these instruments are reported as noninterest income. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are described more fully in Note 13.

Recent Significant Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Significant Accounting Pronouncements:

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.”  Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. This guidance provides temporary, optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential burden in accounting for modifications of loan contracts, borrowings, hedging relationships and other transactions related to reference rate reform associated with the LIBOR transition if certain criteria are met. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024 and can be adopted at an instrument level. The Corporation has utilized certain optional expedients and exceptions under Topic 848 in the case of modifications to certain loans, borrowings and cash flow hedges during 2022 and 2023. These modifications have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not currently expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
