Use of Estimates	2. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to change in the near term, including novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 and its associated variants (“COVID-19”) related changes, are used in connection with the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the evaluation of goodwill for impairment, the review of the need for a valuation allowance of the Company’s deferred tax assets and the fair value of financial instruments. In response to COVID-19, the Company actively assist customers by providing modifications in the form of deferrals of interest, principal and/or escrow for terms ranging from one to thirty months. At September 30, 2021, we had 38 active forbearances for loans with an aggregate outstanding loan balance of approximately $162.0 million resulting in total deferment of $9.5 million in principal, interest and escrow, down from 134 active forbearances for loans with an aggregate outstanding loan balance of $364.4 million at December 31, 2020. The Company actively participated in the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), closing $310.3 million of these loans since the beginning of the program, with $179.5 million of those PPP loans forgiven by the SBA as of September 30, 2021, of which $66.5 million were forgiven during the recent quarter. Pursuant to the CARES Act and later modified by Consolidated Appropriations Act, certain loan modifications are not classified as “troubled debt restructuring” (“TDR”), if the related loans were not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. The Company has elected not to consider as TDR loans temporarily modified for borrowers directly impacted by COVID-19 where the above criteria was met. As such, these loans are considered current and continue to accrue interest at their original contractual terms until the completion of the applicable deferred periods, following which the borrowers will resume making payments and normal delinquency-based non-accrual policies will apply. The majority of the active forbearances are expected to be resolved by the end of 2021.
