AMERIS BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Ameris Bancorp (the Company or Ameris) is a financial holding company headquartered in Moultrie, Georgia. Ameris conducts substantially all of its operations through its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Ameris Bank (the Bank). At June 30, 2014, the Bank operated 74 branches in select markets in Georgia, Alabama, Florida and South Carolina. Our business model capitalizes on the efficiencies of a large financial services company while still providing the community with the personalized banking service expected by our customers. We manage our Bank through a balance of decentralized management responsibilities and efficient centralized operating systems, products and loan underwriting standards. The Companys Board of Directors and senior managers establish corporate policy, strategy and administrative policies. Within the Companys established guidelines and policies, the banker closest to the customer responds to the differing needs and demands of their his or her market.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Ameris have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation. The interim consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto and the report of our registered independent public accounting firm included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 provides guidance that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective prospectively, for annual and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on the Companys results of operations, financial position or disclosures.
ASU 2014-04 Receivables Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (ASU 2014-04). ASU 2014-04 clarifies when
a creditor should reclassify mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate from loans to other real estate owned. It defines when an
in-substance repossession or foreclosure has occurred and when a creditor is considered to have
received physical possession of residential real estate collateralizing a mortgage loan. ASU 2014-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2014, and early adoption is permitted. It can be applied either prospectively or
using a modified retrospective transition method. The Company is evaluating the impact this standard may have on the Companys results of operations, financial position or disclosures.
ASU 2013-11 - Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU 2013-11). ASU 2013-11 requires that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward. However, if a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. ASU 2013-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of these revisions did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations, financial position or disclosures.

NOTE 2 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
On June 30, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of The Coastal Bankshares, Inc. (Coastal), a bank holding company headquartered in Savannah, Georgia. Upon consummation of the acquisition, Coastal was merged with and into the Company, with Ameris as the surviving entity in the merger. At that time, Coastals wholly owned banking subsidiary, The Coastal Bank, was also merged with and into the Bank. The acquisition grew the Companys existing market presence, as Coastal Bank had a total of six banking locations in Chatham, Liberty and Effingham Counties, Georgia. Coastals common shareholders received 0.4671 of a share of the Companys common stock in exchange for each share of Coastals common stock. As a result, the Company issued 1,598,987 common shares at a fair value of $34.5 million and paid $2.8 million cash in exchange for outstanding warrants.
The acquisition of Coastal was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. Assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at their respective acquisition date fair values. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair values. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding the closing date fair values becomes available. Management continues to evaluate fair value adjustments related to loans, other real estate owned and deferred tax assets. Management is in the process of estimating the deferred tax assets resulting from differences in the carrying values of acquired assets and assumed liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their basis for income tax purposes. This estimate will also reflect acquired net operating loss carryforwards and other acquired assets with built-in losses that are expected to be settled or otherwise recovered in future periods where the realization of such benefits would be subject to section 382 limitations. Accordingly, as of the date of acquisition, the Company has not established a deferred tax asset, as management is still performing its assessment of the realization of the benefits from the settlement or recovery of certain of these acquired assets and net operating losses are expected to be subject to section 382 limitations.
The following table presents the assets acquired and liabilities of Coastal assumed as of June 30, 2014 and their initial fair value estimates. The fair value adjustments shown in the following table continue to be evaluated by management and may be subject to further adjustment:

On December 23, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of The Prosperity Banking Company (Prosperity), a bank holding company headquartered in Saint Augustine, Florida. Upon consummation of the acquisition, Prosperity was merged with and into the Company, with Ameris as the surviving entity in the merger. At that time, Prosperitys wholly owned banking subsidiary, Prosperity Bank, was also merged with and into the Bank. Prosperity Bank had a total of 12 banking locations, with the majority of the franchise concentrated in northeast Florida. Prosperitys common shareholders were entitled to elect to receive either 3.125 shares of the Companys common stock or $41.50 in cash in exchange for each share of Prosperitys voting common stock. As a result of Prosperity shareholders elections, the Company issued 1,168,918 common shares at a fair value of $24.6 million.
The acquisition of Prosperity was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. Assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at their respective acquisition date fair values. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair values. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding the closing date fair values becomes available.

NOTE 3 INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The Companys investment policy blends the Companys liquidity needs and interest rate risk management with its desire to increase income and provide funds for expected growth in loans. The investment securities portfolio consists primarily of U.S. government sponsored mortgage-backed securities and agencies, state, county and municipal securities and corporate debt securities. The Companys portfolio and investing philosophy concentrate activities in obligations where the credit risk is limited. For the small portion of the Companys portfolio found to present credit risk, the Company has reviewed the investments and financial performance of the obligors and believes the credit risk to be acceptable.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities available for sale at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 are presented below:

Management and the Companys Asset and Liability Committee (the ALCO Committee) evaluate securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. While the majority of the unrealized losses on debt securities relate to changes in interest rates, corporate debt securities have also been affected by reduced levels of liquidity and higher risk premiums. Occasionally, management engages independent third parties to evaluate the Companys position in certain corporate debt securities to aid management and the ALCO Committee in its determination regarding the status of impairment. The Company believes that each investment poses minimal credit risk and further, that the Company does not intend to sell these investment securities at an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2014, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery or maturity. Therefore, at June 30, 2014, these investments are not considered impaired on an other-than-temporary basis.
At December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of the Companys mortgage-backed securities were obligations of government-sponsored agencies.
The following table is a summary of sales activities in the Companys investment securities available for sale for the six months ended June 30, 2014, year ended December 31, 2013 and six months ended June 30, 2013:

NOTE 4 LOANS
The Company engages in a full complement of lending activities, including real estate-related loans, agriculture-related loans, commercial and financial loans and consumer installment loans within select markets in Georgia, Alabama, Florida and South Carolina. Ameris concentrates the majority of its lending activities in real estate loans. While risk of loss in the Companys portfolio is primarily tied to the credit quality of the various borrowers, risk of loss may increase due to factors beyond the Companys control, such as local, regional and/or national economic downturns. General conditions in the real estate market may also impact the relative risk in the real estate portfolio.
Commercial, financial and agricultural loans include both secured and unsecured loans for working capital, expansion, crop production, and other business purposes. Short-term working capital loans are secured by non-real estate collateral such as accounts receivable, crops, inventory and equipment. The Company evaluates the financial strength, cash flow, management, credit history of the borrower and the quality of the collateral securing the loan. The Bank often requires personal guarantees and secondary sources of repayment on commercial, financial and agricultural loans.
Real estate loans include construction and development loans, commercial and farmland loans and residential loans. Construction and development loans include loans for the development of residential neighborhoods, construction of one-to-four family residential construction loans to builders and consumers, and commercial real estate construction loans, primarily for owner-occupied properties. The Company limits its construction lending risk through adherence to established underwriting procedures. Commercial real estate loans include loans secured by owner-occupied commercial buildings for office, storage, retail, farmland and warehouse space. They also include non-owner occupied commercial buildings such as leased retail and office space. Commercial real estate loans may be larger in size and may involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. Payments on such loans are often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties. The Companys residential loans represent permanent mortgage financing and are secured by residential properties located within the Banks market areas.
Consumer installment loans and other loans include automobile loans, boat and recreational vehicle financing, and both secured and unsecured personal loans. Consumer loans carry greater risks than other loans, as the collateral can consist of rapidly depreciating assets such as automobiles and equipment that may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the loan in the case of default.
Loans are stated at unpaid balances, net of unearned income and deferred loan fees. Balances within the major loans receivable categories are presented in the following table, excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans:

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans
A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when, in managements judgment, the collection of the interest income appears doubtful. Interest receivable that has been accrued and is subsequently determined to have doubtful collectability is charged against interest income. Interest payments on nonaccrual loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured, in which case interest is recognized on a cash basis. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. Nonaccrual loans are loans whose principal or interest is past due 90 days or more. In some cases, where borrowers are experiencing financial difficulties, loans may be restructured to provide terms significantly different from the original contractual terms.
The following table presents an analysis of loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis, excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans:

Impaired Loans
Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreements. When determining if the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement, the Company considers the borrowers capacity to pay, which includes such factors as the borrowers current financial statements, an analysis of global cash flow sufficient to pay all debt obligations and an evaluation of secondary sources of repayment, such as guarantor support and collateral value. Impaired loans include loans on nonaccrual status and troubled debt restructurings. The Company individually assesses for impairment all nonaccrual loans greater than $200,000 and rated substandard or worse and all troubled debt restructurings greater than $100,000. If a loan is deemed impaired, a specific valuation allowance is allocated, if necessary, so that the loan is reported net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loans existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured, in which case interest is recognized on a cash basis.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company uses a nine category risk grading system to assign a risk grade to each loan in the portfolio. Every loan is assigned a risk rating, with the exception of credit card receivables and overdraft protection loans which are treated as pools for risk rating purposes. Relationships greater than $250,000 are reviewed annually by the Banks independent internal loan review department or an independent third party loan review firm. The following is a description of the general characteristics of the grades:
Grade 10 Prime Credit This grade represents loans to the Companys most creditworthy borrowers or loans that are secured by cash or cash equivalents.
Grade 15 Good Credit This grade includes loans that exhibit one or more characteristics better than that of a Satisfactory Credit. Generally, the debt service coverage and borrowers liquidity is materially better than required by the Companys loan policy.
Grade 20 Satisfactory Credit This grade is assigned to loans to borrowers who exhibit satisfactory credit histories, contain acceptable loan structures and demonstrate ability to repay.
Grade 23 Performing, Under-Collateralized Credit This grade is assigned to loans that are currently performing and supported by adequate financial information that reflects repayment capacity but exhibit a loan-to-value ratio greater than 110%, based on a documented collateral valuation.
20
Grade 25 Minimum Acceptable Credit This grade includes loans which exhibit all the characteristics of a Satisfactory Credit, but warrant more than normal level of banker supervision due to (i) circumstances which elevate the risks of performance (such as start-up operations, untested management, heavy leverage and interim losses); (ii) adverse, extraordinary events that have affected, or could affect, the borrowers cash flow, financial condition, ability to continue operating profitability or refinancing (such as death of principal, fire and divorce); (iii) loans that require more than the normal servicing requirements (such as any type of construction financing, acquisition and development loans, accounts receivable or inventory loans and floor plan loans); (iv) existing technical exceptions which raise some doubts about the Banks perfection in its collateral position or the continued financial capacity of the borrower; or (v) improvements in formerly criticized borrowers, which may warrant banker supervision.
Grade 30 Other Asset Especially Mentioned This grade includes loans that exhibit potential weaknesses that deserve managements close attention. If left uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Companys credit position at some future date.
Grade 40 Substandard This grade represents loans which are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. These assets exhibit a well-defined weakness or are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. These weaknesses may be characterized by past due performance, operating losses or questionable collateral values.
Grade 50 Doubtful This grade includes loans which exhibit all of the characteristics of a substandard loan with the added provision that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable or improbable.
Grade 60 Loss This grade is assigned to loans which are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as active assets of the Bank is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loss has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing it off.
The following table presents the loan portfolio, excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans, by risk grade as of June 30, 2014.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
The restructuring of a loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the Company has granted a concession. Concessions may include interest rate reductions to below market interest rates, principal forgiveness, restructuring amortization schedules and other actions intended to minimize potential losses. The Company has exhibited the greatest success for rehabilitation of a loan by a reduction in the rate alone (maintaining the amortization of the debt) or a combination of a rate reduction and the forbearance of previously past due interest or principal. This has most typically been evidenced in certain commercial real estate loans whereby a disruption in the borrowers cash flow resulted in an extended past due status, of which the borrower was unable to catch up completely as the cash flow of the property ultimately stabilized at a level lower than its original level. A reduction in rate, coupled with a forbearance of unpaid principal and/or interest, allowed the net cash flows to service the debt under the modified terms.
The Companys policy requires a restructure request to be supported by a current, well-documented credit evaluation of the borrowers financial condition and a collateral evaluation that is no older than six months from the date of the restructure. Key factors of that evaluation include the documentation of current, recurring cash flows, support provided by the guarantor(s) and the current valuation of the collateral. If the appraisal on file is older than six months, an evaluation must be made as to the continued reasonableness of the valuation. For certain income-producing properties, current rent rolls and/or other income information can be utilized to support the appraisal valuation, when coupled with documented cap rates within our markets and a physical inspection of the collateral to validate the current condition.
The Companys policy states in the event a loan has been identified as a troubled debt restructuring, it should be assigned a grade of substandard and placed on nonaccrual status until such time that the borrower has demonstrated the ability to service the loan payments based on the restructured terms generally defined as six months of satisfactory payment history. Missed payments under the original loan terms are not considered under the new structure; however, subsequent missed payments are considered non-performance and are not considered toward the six month required term of satisfactory payment history. The Companys loan policy states that a nonaccrual loan may be returned to accrual status when (i) none of its principal and interest is due and unpaid, and the Company expects repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest, or (ii) it otherwise becomes well secured and in the process of collection. Restoration to accrual status on any given loan must be supported by a well-documented credit evaluation of the borrowers financial condition and the prospects for full repayment, approved by the Companys Senior Credit Officer.
In the normal course of business, the Company renews loans with a modification of the interest rate or terms that are not deemed as troubled debt restructurings because the borrower is not experiencing financial difficulty. The Company modified loans in the first six months of 2014 and 2013 totaling $8.4 million and $20.7 million, respectively, under such parameters. In addition, the Company offers consumer loan customers an annual skip-a-pay program that is based on certain qualifying parameters and not based on financial difficulties. The Company does not treat these as troubled debt restructurings.
As of June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, the Company had a balance of $21.1 million, $20.9 million and $20.6 million, respectively, in troubled debt restructurings, excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans. The Company has recorded $3.0 million, $2.1 million and $2.0 million in previous charge-offs on such loans at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The Companys balance in the allowance for loan losses allocated to such troubled debt restructurings was $398,000, $432,000 and $482,000 at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. At June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose terms have been modified in troubled restructurings. Troubled debt restructurings with an outstanding balance of $130,218 at December 31, 2013 defaulted during the first six months of 2014 and these defaults did not have a material impact on the Companys allowance for loan loss.

Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses represents an allowance for probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is evaluated periodically based on a review of all significant loans, with a particular emphasis on non-accruing, past due and other loans that management believes might be potentially impaired or warrant additional attention. The Company segregates the loan portfolio by type of loan and utilizes this segregation in evaluating exposure to risks within the portfolio. In addition, based on internal reviews and external reviews performed by independent auditors and regulatory authorities, the Company further segregates the loan portfolio by loan grades based on an assessment of risk for a particular loan or group of loans. Certain reviewed loans are assigned specific allowances when a review of relevant data determines that a general allocation is not sufficient or when the review affords management the opportunity to adjust the amount of exposure in a given credit. In establishing allowances, management considers historical loan loss experience but adjusts this data with a significant emphasis on data such as current loan quality trends, current economic conditions and other factors in the markets where the Company operates. Factors considered include, among others, current valuations of real estate in their markets, unemployment rates, the effect of weather conditions on agricultural related entities and other significant local economic events.
The Company has developed a methodology for determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses which is monitored by the Companys Chief Credit Officer. Procedures provide for the assignment of a risk rating for every loan included in the total loan portfolio, with the exception of credit card receivables and overdraft protection loans which are treated as pools for risk rating purposes. The risk rating schedule provides nine ratings of which five ratings are classified as pass ratings and four ratings are classified as criticized ratings. Each risk rating is assigned a percentage factor to be applied to the loan balance to determine the adequate amount of reserve. Relationships greater than $250,000 are reviewed annually by the Banks independent internal loan review department or an independent third party loan review firm. As a result of these loan reviews, certain loans may be identified as having deteriorating credit quality. Other loans that surface as problem loans may also be assigned specific reserves. Past due loans are assigned risk ratings based on the number of days past due. The calculation of the allowance for loan losses, including underlying data and assumptions, is reviewed regularly by the Companys Chief Financial Officer and the loan review department.
Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the collection of a loans principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance. Consumer loans are charged-off in accordance with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Councils (FFIEC) Uniform Retail Credit Classification and Account Management Policy. Commercial loans are charged-off when they are deemed uncollectible, which usually involves a triggering event within the collection effort. If the loan is collateral dependent, the loss is more easily identified and is charged-off when it is identified, usually based upon receipt of an appraisal. However, when a loan has guarantor support, the Company may carry the estimated loss as a reserve against the loan while collection efforts with the guarantor are pursued. If, after collection efforts with the guarantor are complete, the deficiency is still considered uncollectible, the loss is charged-off and any further collections are treated as recoveries. In all situations, when a loan is downgraded to an Asset Quality Rating of 60 (Loss per the regulatory guidance), the uncollectible portion is charged-off.
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the year ended December 31, 2013 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded provision for loan loss expense of $593,000, $1.5 million and $790,000, respectively, to account for losses where the initial estimate of cash flows was found to be excessive on loans acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions. These amounts are excluded from the rollforwards below but are reflected in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. Charge-offs on purchased covered loans are recorded when impairment is recorded and provision expense is recorded net of the indemnification by the FDIC loss-share agreements.

The following table details activity in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the six months ended June 30, 2014, the year ended December 31, 2013 and the six months ended June 30, 2013. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

NOTE 5 ASSETS ACQUIRED IN FDIC-ASSISTED ACQUISITIONS
From October 2009 through July 2012, the Company participated in ten FDIC-assisted acquisitions whereby the Company purchased certain failed institutions out of the FDICs receivership. These institutions include the following:
Bank Acquired |
Location: | Branches: | Date Acquired | |||
American United Bank (AUB) | Lawrenceville, Ga. | 1 | October 23, 2009 | |||
United Security Bank (USB) | Sparta, Ga. | 2 | November 6, 2009 | |||
Satilla Community Bank (SCB) | St. Marys, Ga. | 1 | May 14, 2010 | |||
First Bank of Jacksonville (FBJ) | Jacksonville, Fl. | 2 | October 22, 2010 | |||
Tifton Banking Company (TBC) | Tifton, Ga. | 1 | November 12, 2010 | |||
Darby Bank & Trust (DBT) | Vidalia, Ga. | 7 | November 12, 2010 | |||
High Trust Bank (HTB) | Stockbridge, Ga. | 2 | July 15, 2011 | |||
One Georgia Bank (OGB) | Midtown Atlanta, Ga. | 1 | July 15, 2011 | |||
Central Bank of Georgia (CBG) | Ellaville, Ga. | 5 | February 24, 2012 | |||
Montgomery Bank & Trust (MBT) | Ailey, Ga. | 2 | July 6, 2012 |
The determination of the initial fair values of loans at the acquisition date and the initial fair values of the related FDIC indemnification assets involves a high degree of judgment and complexity. The carrying values of the acquired loans and the FDIC indemnification assets reflect managements best estimate of the fair value of each of these assets as of the date of acquisition. However, the amount that the Company realizes on these assets could differ materially from the carrying values reflected in the financial statements included in this report, based upon the timing and amount of collections on the acquired loans in future periods. Because of the loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC on these assets, the Company does not expect to incur any significant losses. To the extent the actual values realized for the acquired loans are different from the estimates, the indemnification assets will generally be affected in an offsetting manner due to the loss-sharing support from the FDIC.
FASB ASC 310 30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (ASC 310), applies to a loan with evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination, acquired by completion of a transfer for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable. ASC 310 prohibits carrying over or creating an allowance for loan losses upon initial recognition for loans which fall under the scope of this statement. At the acquisition dates, a majority of these loans were valued based on the liquidation value of the underlying collateral because the future cash flows are primarily based on the liquidation of underlying collateral. There was no allowance for credit losses established related to these ASC 310 loans at the acquisition dates, based on the provisions of this statement. Over the life of the acquired loans, the Company continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected. If the expected cash flows expected to be collected increases, then the Company adjusts the amount of accretable discount recognized on a prospective basis over the loans remaining life. If the expected cash flows expected to be collected decreases, then the Company records a provision for loan loss in its consolidated statement of operations.

On the dates of acquisition, the Company estimated the future cash flows on each individual loan and made the necessary adjustments to reflect the asset at fair value. At each quarter end subsequent to the acquisition dates, the Company revises the estimates of future cash flows based on current information and makes the necessary adjustments to carrying value. Amounts reflected in the Companys statement of earnings are net of indemnification provided under loss share agreements with the FDIC. The adjustments are performed on a loan-by-loan basis and have resulted in the following adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2014, the year ended December 31, 2013 and the six months ended June 30, 2013:

The shared-loss agreements are subject to the servicing procedures as specified in the agreement with the FDIC. The expected reimbursements under the shared-loss agreements were recorded as an indemnification asset at their estimated fair values on the acquisition dates. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has recorded a clawback liability of $5.2 million, which represents the obligation of the Company to reimburse the FDIC should actual losses be less than certain thresholds established in each loss share agreement. Changes in the FDIC shared-loss receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2014, for the year ended December 31, 2013 and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are as follows:

NOTE 8 COMMITMENTS
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as are used for on-balance-sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
The Company issues standby letters of credit, which are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and expire in decreasing amounts with varying terms. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company holds various assets as collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.
The Company evaluates each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on managements credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties.
The Companys commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are presented in the following table:

NOTE 10 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Companys various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. The accounting standard for disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments 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 Company.
The Company has elected to record mortgage loans held-for-sale at fair value in order to eliminate the complexities and inherent difficulties of achieving hedge accounting and to better align reported results with the underlying economic changes in value of the loans and related hedge instruments. This election impacts the timing and recognition of origination fees and costs, as well as servicing value, which are now recognized in earnings at the time of origination. Interest income on mortgage loans held-for-sale is recorded on an accrual basis in the consolidated statement of earnings and comprehensive income under the heading Interest income interest and fees on loans. The servicing value is included in the fair value of the Interest Rate Lock Commitments (IRLCs) with borrowers. The mark to market adjustments related to loans held-for-sale and the associated economic hedges are captured in mortgage banking activities.
The fair value hierarchy describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:
Cash and Due From Banks, Federal Funds Sold and Interest-Bearing Accounts: The carrying amount of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and interest-bearing accounts approximates fair value.
Investment Securities Available for Sale: The fair value of securities available for sale is determined by various valuation methodologies. Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include mortgage-backed securities issued by government sponsored enterprises and municipal bonds. The Level 2 fair value pricing is provided by an independent third-party and is based upon similar securities in an active market. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy and include certain residual municipal securities and other less liquid securities.
Other Investments: Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock is included in other investments at its original cost basis. It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.
Mortgage Loans Held for Sale: The Company records mortgage loans held for sale at fair value. The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is determined on outstanding commitments from third party investors in the secondary markets and is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Loans: The carrying amount of variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-rate loans is estimated based on discounted contractual cash flows, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers with similar credit quality. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated based on discounted expected future cash flows or underlying collateral values, where applicable. A loan is determined to be impaired if the Company believes it is probable that all principal and interest amounts due according to the terms of the loan will not be collected as scheduled. The fair value of impaired loans is determined in accordance with accounting standards and generally results in a specific reserve established through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Losses on impaired loans are charged to the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan is confirmed. Management has determined that the majority of impaired loans are Level 3 assets due to the extensive use of market appraisals.
41
Other Real Estate Owned: The fair value of other real estate owned (OREO) is determined using certified appraisals that value the property at its highest and best uses by applying traditional valuation methods common to the industry. The Company does not hold any OREO for profit purposes and all other real estate is actively marketed for sale. In most cases, management has determined that additional write-downs are required beyond what is calculable from the appraisal to carry the property at levels that would attract buyers. Because this additional write-down is not based on observable inputs, management has determined that other real estate owned should be classified as Level 3.
Covered Assets: Covered assets include loans and other real estate owned on which the majority of losses would be covered by loss-sharing agreements with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the FDIC). Management initially valued these assets at fair value using mostly unobservable inputs and, as such, has classified these assets as Level 3.
FDIC Loss-Share Receivable: The fair value of the FDIC loss-share receivable is based on the net present value of projected future cash flows expected to be received from the FDIC under the provision of the loss-share agreements using a discount rate that is based on current market rates.
Deposits: The carrying amount of demand deposits, savings deposits and variable-rate certificates of deposit approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-rate certificates of deposit is estimated based on discounted contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for certificates with similar maturities.
Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Other Borrowings: The carrying amount of variable rate borrowings and securities sold under repurchase agreements approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed rate other borrowings is estimated based on discounted contractual cash flows using the current incremental borrowing rates for similar borrowing arrangements.
Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures: The fair value of the Companys variable rate trust preferred securities is based primarily upon discounted cash flows using rates for securities with similar terms and remaining maturities.
Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments: Because commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are typically made using variable rates and have short maturities, the carrying value and fair value are immaterial for disclosure.
Derivatives: The Company has entered into derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivatives. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair value of the derivatives is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves derived from observable market interest rate curves).
The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterpartys nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting any applicable credit enhancements such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself or the counterparty. However, as of June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustment is not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

On a tax equivalent basis, net interest income for the second quarter of 2014 was $35.6 million, an increase of $5.9 million compared to $29.7 million reported in the same quarter in 2013. The higher net interest income is a result of the acquisition of The Prosperity Banking Company during the fourth quarter of 2013, along with steady yields on the loan portfolio, lower levels of excess liquidity than in previous quarters and steady decreases in the Companys cost of funds. The Companys net interest margin increased during the second quarter of 2014 to 4.65%, compared to 4.57% during the first quarter of 2014, but decreased compared to 4.96% reported in the second quarter of 2013.
51
Total interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, during the second quarter of 2014 was $39.0 million compared to $32.1 million in the same quarter of 2013. Yields on earning assets fell slightly to 5.08%, compared to 5.38% reported in the second quarter of 2013. During the second quarter of 2014, loans comprised 82.9% of earning assets, compared to 84.1% in the same quarter of 2013. Increased lending activities have provided opportunities to grow the legacy loan portfolio. Yields on legacy loans decreased to 5.17% in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 5.37% in the same period of 2013. Covered loan yields declined from 8.18% in the second quarter of 2013 to 5.84% in the second quarter of 2014. The yield on purchased non-covered loans was 7.34% for the second quarter of 2014. Management anticipates improving economic conditions and increased loan demand will provide consistent interest income.
Total funding costs increased slightly to 0.42% in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 0.40% during the second quarter of 2013. Deposit costs decreased from 0.34% in the second quarter of 2013 to 0.29% in the second quarter of 2014, while non- deposit funding costs increased from 2.50% in the second quarter of 2013 to 2.86% in the second quarter of 2014. Continued shifts in the funding mix toward noninterest-bearing demand and other lower cost deposit categories were the primary reason for the decline in deposit costs. Ongoing efforts to maintain the percentage of funding from transaction deposits have succeeded such that non-CD deposits averaged 76.0% of total deposits in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 72.5% during the second quarter of 2013. Lower costs on deposits were realized due mostly to the lower rate environment and the Companys ability to rely less on higher priced CDs due to its larger than normal position in short-term assets. Further opportunity to realize savings on deposits exists but may be limited due to current costs. Average balances of interest bearing deposits and their respective costs for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013 are shown below:

Provision for Loan Losses and Credit Quality
The Companys provision for loan losses during the second quarter of 2014 amounted to $1.4 million, compared to $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2014 and $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2013. Although the Company has experienced improving trends in criticized and classified assets for several quarters, provision for loan losses continues to be required to account for loan growth and continued devaluation of real estate collateral. At June 30, 2014, classified loans still accruing totaled $42.6 million, compared to $26.3 million at June 30, 2013. This increase is predominately due to the addition of classified loans in the Prosperity Bank and Coastal Bank acquisitions. Non-accrual loans, excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans, totaled $22.1 million at June 30, 2014, a 30.5% decrease from $31.8 million reported at the end of the second quarter of 2013. Nonaccrual purchased non-covered loans totaled $15.8 million at June 30, 2014. There were no nonaccrual purchased non-covered loans at the end of the second quarter of 2013.
At June 30, 2014, other real estate owned (excluding purchased non-covered and covered OREO) totaled $35.4 million, compared to $33.8 million at March 31, 2014 and $39.9 million at June 30, 2013. Management regularly assesses the valuation of OREO through periodic reappraisal and through inquiries received in the marketing process. The Company has found that with a marketing window of three to six months, the liquidation of properties occurs between 85% and 100% of current book value. Certain properties, mostly raw land and subdivision lots, have extended marketing periods because of excessive inventory and record low home building activity. At the end of the second quarter of 2014, total non-performing assets were 2.26% of total assets, compared to 2.00% at December 31, 2013 and 2.55% at June 30, 2013. This increase is due to the Prosperity and Coastal acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of 2013 and second quarter of 2014, respectively. Management continues to aggressively identify and resolve problem assets while seeking quality credits to grow the loan portfolio.
52
Net charge-offs on loans during the second quarter of 2014 were $1.5 million, or 0.34% of loans on an annualized basis, compared to $2.9 million, or 0.74% of loans, in the second quarter of 2013. The Companys allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2014 was $22.3 million, or 1.26% of loans (excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans), compared to $24.2 million, or 1.56% of loans (excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans), at June 30, 201.
Noninterest Income
Total non-interest income for the second quarter of 2014 was $15.8 million, compared to $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2013. Income from mortgage related activities continued to increase as a result of the Companys increased number of mortgage bankers and higher levels of production. Service charges on deposit accounts in the second quarter of 2014 increased to $5.8 million, compared to $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2013. This increase was driven by the growth of core accounts through the acquisition of Prosperity Bank during the fourth quarter of 2013, along with higher balances in accounts subject to service charges.
Noninterest Expense
Total non-interest expenses for the second quarter of 2014 increased to $37.3 million, compared to $26.7 million in the same quarter in 2013. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded $2.9 million of merger charges related to the Coastal acquisition. Other increases in noninterest expenses were primarily the result of the acquisition of Prosperity Bank during the fourth quarter of 2013 and additional expenses related to increases in mortgage volume. Salaries and benefits increased $3.6 million when compared to the second quarter of 2013. Occupancy and equipment expense increased during the quarter from $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2013 to $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2014. Data processing and telecommunications expenses increased to $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2014 from $2.8 million for the same period in 2013. Credit resolution related expenses, including problem loan and OREO expense and OREO write-downs and losses, increased to $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2013.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense is influenced by the amount of taxable income, the amount of tax-exempt income and the amount of non-deductible expenses. For the second quarter of 2014, the Company reported income tax expense of $4.3 million, compared to $3.3 million in the same period of 2013. The Companys effective tax rate for the three months ending June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 34.4% and 33.3%, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses decreased to $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $7.1 million in the same period in 2013. Non-performing assets (excluding covered assets) totaled $89.9 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $71.7 million at June 30, 2013. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company had net charge-offs totaling $2.6 million, compared to $5.7 million for the same period in 2013. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of loans (excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans) decreased to 0.30% during the first six months of 2014, compared to 0.74% during the first six months of 2013.
Noninterest Income
Non-interest income for the first six months of 2014 was $28.6 million, compared to $22.7 million in the same period in 2013. Service charges on deposit accounts increased approximately $1.9 million to $11.4 million in the first six months of 2014, compared to $9.5 million in the same period in 2013. This increase was driven by the growth of core accounts through the acquisition of Prosperity Bank during the fourth quarter of 2013, along with higher balances in accounts subject to service charges. Income from mortgage banking activity increased from $9.5 million in the first six months of 2013 to $12.0 million in the first half of 2014, due to an increased number of mortgage bankers and higher levels of production.
Noninterest Expense
Total operating expenses for the first six months of 2014 increased to $70.6 million, compared to $55.6 million in the same period in 2013. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded $2.9 million of merger charges related to the Coastal acquisition. Other increases in noninterest expenses were primarily the result of the acquisition of Prosperity Bank during the fourth quarter of 2013 and additional expenses related to increases in mortgage volume. Salaries and benefits increased $7.1 million when compared to the first half of 2013. Occupancy and equipment expenses for the first six months of 2014 amounted to $8.1 million, representing an increase of $2.2 million from the same period in 2013. Data processing and telecommunications expenses increased from $5.4 million in the first six months of 2013 to $7.4 million in the first six months of 2014. Credit resolution related expenses, including problem loan and OREO expense and OREO write-downs and losses, decreased to $5.0 million in the first six months of 2014, compared to $7.2 million in the first half of 2013.
Income Taxes
In the first six months of 2014, the Company recorded income tax expense of $8.2 million, compared to $5.9 million in the same period of 2013. The Companys effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 33.2%.
Financial Condition as of June 30, 2014
Securities
Debt securities with readily determinable fair values are classified as available for sale and recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of the related deferred tax effect. Equity securities, including restricted equity securities, are classified as other investments and are recorded at cost.
The amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recognized in interest income using methods approximating the interest method over the life of the securities. Realized gains and losses, determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are included in earnings on the settlement date. Declines in the fair value of securities below their cost that are deemed to be other-than-temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses.
In determining whether other-than-temporary impairment losses exist, management considers: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least quarterly, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Substantially all of the unrealized losses on debt securities are related to changes in interest rates and do not affect the expected cash flows of the issuer or underlying collateral. All unrealized losses are considered temporary because each security carries an acceptable investment grade and the Company does not intend to sell these investment securities at an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2014, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery or maturity. Therefore, at June 30, 2014, these investments are not considered impaired on an other-than temporary basis.

Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses
At June 30, 2014, gross loans outstanding (including mortgage loans held for sale and purchased non-covered and covered loans) were $2.88 billion, an increase from $2.52 billion reported at December 31, 2013 and $2.06 billion reported at June 30, 2013. Mortgage loans held for sale increased from $67.3 million at December 31, 2013 to $81.5 million at June 30, 2014. Legacy loans (excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans) increased $151.6 million, from $1.62 billion at December 31, 2013 to $1.77 billion at June 30, 2014. Purchased non-covered loans increased $253.4 million, from $448.8 million at December 31, 2013 to $702.1 million at June 30, 2014. Covered loans decreased $58.9 million, from $390.2 million at December 31, 2013 to $331.3 million at June 30, 2014.
The Company regularly monitors the composition of the loan portfolio to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses in light of the impact that changes in the economic environment may have on the loan portfolio. The Company focuses on the following loan categories: (1) commercial, financial and agricultural; (2) residential real estate; (3) commercial and farmland real estate; (4) construction and development related real estate; and (5) consumer. The Companys management has strategically located its branches in select markets in south and southeast Georgia, north Florida, southeast Alabama and throughout South Carolina to take advantage of the growth in these areas.
The Companys risk management processes include a loan review program designed to evaluate the credit risk in the loan portfolio and ensure credit grade accuracy. Through the loan review process, the Company conducts (1) a loan portfolio summary analysis, (2) charge-off and recovery analysis, (3) trends in accruing problem loan analysis, and (4) problem and past due loan analysis. This analysis process serves as a tool to assist management in assessing the overall quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Loans classified as substandard are loans which are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged. These assets exhibit a well-defined weakness or are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. These weaknesses may be characterized by past due performance, operating losses and/or questionable collateral values. Loans classified as doubtful are those loans that have characteristics similar to substandard loans but have an increased risk of loss. Loans classified as loss are those loans which are considered uncollectible and are in the process of being charged-off.
The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses is based on managements evaluation of the size and composition of the loan portfolio, the level of non-performing and past due loans, historical trends of charged-off loans and recoveries, prevailing economic conditions and other factors management deems appropriate. The Companys management has established an allowance for loan losses which it believes is adequate for the probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Based on a credit evaluation of the loan portfolio, management presents a monthly review of the allowance for loan losses to the Companys Board of Directors. The review that management has developed primarily focuses on risk by evaluating individual loans in certain risk categories. These categories have also been established by management and take the form of loan grades. By grading the loan portfolio in this manner the Companys management is able to effectively evaluate the portfolio by risk, which management believes is the most effective way to analyze the loan portfolio and thus analyze the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.
57
The allowance for loan losses is established by examining (1) the large classified loans, nonaccrual loans and loans considered impaired and evaluating them individually to determine the specific reserve allocation, and (2) the remainder of the loan portfolio to allocate a portion of the allowance based on past loss experience and the economic conditions for the particular loan category. The Company also considers other factors such as changes in lending policies and procedures; changes in national, regional, and/or local economic and business conditions; changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; changes in the experience, ability and depth of either the bank president or lending staff; changes in the volume and severity of past due and classified loans; changes in the quality of the Companys corporate loan review system; and other factors management deems appropriate.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded net charge-offs totaling $2.6 million, compared to $5.7 million for the period ended June 30, 2013. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased to $3.1 million, compared to $7.1 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. At the end of the second quarter of 2014, the allowance for loan losses totaled $22.3 million, or 1.26% of total legacy loans, compared to $22.4 million, or 1.38% of total legacy loans, at December 31, 2013 and $24.2 million, or 1.56% of total legacy loans, at June 30, 2013. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-covered loans reflects the improving credit quality trends in the loan portfolio.

Assets Covered by Loss-Sharing Agreements with the FDIC
Loans that were acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions that are covered by the loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC (covered loans) totaled $331.3 million, $390.2 million and $443.5 million at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. OREO that is covered by the loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC totaled $38.4 million, $45.9 million and $62.2 million at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The loss-sharing agreements are subject to the servicing procedures as specified in the agreements with the FDIC. The expected reimbursements under the loss-sharing agreements were recorded as an indemnification asset at their estimated fair value on the acquisition dates. The FDIC loss-share receivable reported at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 was $49.2 million, $65.4 million and $105.5 million, respectively.
58
The Bank initially recorded the loans at their fair values, taking into consideration certain credit quality, risk and liquidity marks. The Company believes its estimation of credit risk and its adjustments to the carrying balances of the acquired loans is adequate. If the Company determines that a loan or group of loans has deteriorated from its initial assessment of fair value, a reserve for loan losses will be established to account for that difference. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the year ended December 31, 2013 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded provision for loan loss expense of $593,000, $1.5 million and $790,000, respectively, to account for losses where the initial estimate of cash flows was found to be excessive on loans acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions. If the Company determines that a loan or group of loans has improved from its initial assessment of fair value, then the increase in cash flows over those expected at the acquisition date is recognized as interest income prospectively, with an associated write off of the remaining indemnification asset over the shorter of the life of the loan or the loss share agreement.
Covered loans are shown below according to loan type as of the end of the periods shown:

Non-Performing Assets
Non-performing assets include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more, repossessed personal property and other real estate owned. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management has concerns relating to the ability to collect the principal and interest and generally when such loans are 90 days or more past due. Management performs a detailed review and valuation assessment of impaired loans on a quarterly basis and recognizes losses when permanent impairment is identified. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the loan contract. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current income.
As of June 30, 2014, nonaccrual loans (excluding purchased non-covered and covered loans) totaled $22.1 million, a decrease of approximately $7.1 million since December 31, 2013. The decrease in nonaccrual loans is due to the success in the foreclosure and resolution process and a significant slowdown in the formation of new problem credits. Nonaccrual purchased non-covered loans totaled $15.8 million, an increase of approximately $9.1 million since December 31, 2013 due to the Coastal acquisition. Total non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets were 2.26%, 2.00% and 2.55% at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

Commercial Lending Practices
On December 12, 2006, the Federal Bank Regulatory Agencies released guidance on Concentration in Commercial Real Estate Lending. This guidance defines commercial real estate (CRE) loans as loans secured by raw land, land development and construction (including 1-4 family residential construction), multi-family property and non-farm nonresidential property where the primary or a significant source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property, excluding owner occupied properties (loans for which 50% or more of the source of repayment is derived from the ongoing operations and activities conducted by the party, or affiliate of the party, who owns the property) or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing or permanent financing of the property. Loans for owner occupied CRE are generally excluded from the CRE guidance.
The CRE guidance is applicable when either:
(1) | total loans for construction, land development, and other land, net of owner occupied loans, represent 100% or more of a banks total risk-based capital; or |
(2) | total loans secured by multifamily and nonfarm nonresidential properties and loans for construction, land development, and other land, net of owner occupied loans, represent 300% or more of a banks total risk-based capital. |
Banks that are subject to the CRE guidance criteria are required to implement enhanced strategic planning, CRE underwriting policies, risk management and internal controls, portfolio stress testing, risk exposure limits, and other policies, including management compensation and incentives, to address the CRE risks. Higher allowances for loan losses and capital levels may also be appropriate.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company exhibited a concentration in the CRE loan category based on Federal Reserve Call codes. The primary risks of CRE lending are:
(1) | within CRE loans, construction and development loans are somewhat dependent upon continued strength in demand for residential real estate, which is reliant on favorable real estate mortgage rates and changing population demographics; |
(2) | on average, CRE loan sizes are generally larger than non-CRE loan types; and |
(3) | certain construction and development loans may be less predictable and more difficult to evaluate and monitor. |
The following table outlines CRE loan categories and CRE loans as a percentage of total loans as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The loan categories and concentrations below are based on Federal Reserve Call codes and include purchased on-covered and covered loans:

Short-Term Investments
The Companys short-term investments are comprised of federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances. At June 30, 2014, the Companys short-term investments were $44.8 million, compared to $205.0 million and $43.9 million at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The decrease in short-term investments during the first six months of 2014 is mostly due to the Companys repayment of other borrowings that were recorded in the Prosperity acquisition. At June 30, 2014, $44.3 million of the balance was comprised of interest-bearing balances, the majority of which were at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company had a cash flow hedge that matures September 15, 2020 with a notional amount of $37.1 million at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 for the purpose of converting the variable rate on the junior subordinated debentures to a fixed rate of 4.11%. The fair value of these instruments amounted to a liability of approximately $1.1 million, $370,000 and $916,000 at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The Company also had forward contracts and IRLCs to hedge changes in the value of the mortgage inventory due to changes in market interest rates. The fair value of these instruments amounted to an asset with a fair value of approximately $2.6 million, $1.2 million and $1.6 million at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively, No hedge ineffectiveness from cash flow hedges was recognized in the statement of earnings. All components of each derivatives gain or loss are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness.
Capital
Capital management consists of providing equity to support both current and anticipated future operations. The Company is subject to capital adequacy requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board (the FRB) and the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance (the GDBF), and the Bank is subject to capital adequacy requirements imposed by the FDIC and the GDBF.
The FRB, the FDIC and the GDBF have adopted risk-based capital requirements for assessing bank holding company and bank capital adequacy. These standards define and establish minimum capital requirements in relation to assets and off-balance sheet exposure, adjusted for credit risk. The risk-based capital standards currently in effect are designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among bank holding companies and banks and to account for off-balance sheet exposure. The regulatory capital standards are defined by the following three key measurements:
a) | The Leverage Ratio is defined as Tier 1 capital to average assets. To be considered adequately capitalized under this measurement, a bank must maintain a leverage ratio greater than or equal to 4.00%. For a bank to be considered well capitalized, it must maintain a leverage ratio greater than or equal to 5.00%. |
b) | The Core Capital Ratio is defined as Tier 1 capital to total risk weighted assets. To be considered adequately capitalized under this measurement, a bank must maintain a core capital ratio greater than or equal to 4.00%. For a bank to be considered well capitalized, it must maintain a core capital ratio greater than or equal to 6.00%. |
c) | The Total Capital Ratio is defined as total capital to total risk weighted assets. To be considered adequately capitalized under this measurement, a bank must maintain a total capital ratio greater than or equal to 8.00%. For a bank to be considered well capitalized, it must maintain a total capital ratio greater than or equal to 10.00%. |
As of June 30, 2014, under the regulatory capital standards, the Bank was considered well capitalized under all capital measurements. On July 2, 2013, the FRB adopted a new regulatory capital framework as a part of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms. Management currently believes that Ameris will be in compliance with the revised capital requirements when they become applicable to the Company on January 1, 2015. The following table sets forth the regulatory capital ratios of Ameris at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013:

Capital Purchase Program
On November 21, 2008, the Company, pursuant to the Capital Purchase Program established in connection with the Troubled Asset Relief Program, issued and sold to the U.S. Treasury, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $52 million, (i) 52,000 shares (the Preferred Shares) of the Companys Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, and (ii) a ten-year warrant (the Warrant) to purchase up to 679,443 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $11.48 per share. On June 14, 2012, the Preferred Shares were sold by the Treasury through a registered public offering. On August 22, 2012, the Company repurchased the Warrant from the Treasury for $2.67 million. In December 2012, the Company repurchased 24,000 outstanding Preferred Shares, and in March 2014, the Company redeemed the remaining 28,000 outstanding Preferred Shares.
Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity
The Companys primary market risk exposures are credit risk, interest rate risk, and to a lesser degree, liquidity risk. The Bank operates under an Asset Liability Management Policy approved by the Companys Board of Directors and the Asset and Liability Committee (the ALCO Committee). The policy outlines limits on interest rate risk in terms of changes in net interest income and changes in the net market values of assets and liabilities over certain changes in interest rate environments. These measurements are made through a simulation model which projects the impact of changes in interest rates on the Banks assets and liabilities. The policy also outlines responsibility for monitoring interest rate risk, and the process for the approval, implementation and monitoring of interest rate risk strategies to achieve the Banks interest rate risk objectives.
The ALCO Committee is comprised of senior officers of Ameris and two outside members of the Companys Board of Directors. The ALCO Committee makes all strategic decisions with respect to the sources and uses of funds that may affect net interest income, including net interest spread and net interest margin. The objective of the ALCO Committee is to identify the interest rate, liquidity and market value risks of the Companys balance sheet and use reasonable methods approved by the Companys Board of Directors and executive management to minimize those identified risks.
The normal course of business activity exposes the Company to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is managed within an overall asset and liability framework for the Company. The principal objectives of asset and liability management are to predict the sensitivity of net interest spreads to potential changes in interest rates, control risk and enhance profitability. Funding positions are kept within predetermined limits designed to properly manage risk and liquidity. The Company employs sensitivity analysis in the form of a net interest income simulation to help characterize the market risk arising from changes in interest rates. In addition, fluctuations in interest rates usually result in changes in the fair market value of the Companys financial instruments, cash flows and net interest income. The Companys interest rate risk position is managed by the ALCO Committee.
The Company uses a simulation modeling process to measure interest rate risk and evaluate potential strategies. Interest rate scenario models are prepared using software created and licensed from an outside vendor. The Companys simulation includes all financial assets and liabilities. Simulation results quantify interest rate risk under various interest rate scenarios. Management then develops and implements appropriate strategies. The ALCO Committee has determined that an acceptable level of interest rate risk would be for net interest income to decrease no more than 5.00% given a change in selected interest rates of 200 basis points over any 24-month period.
Liquidity management involves the matching of the cash flow requirements of customers, who may be either depositors desiring to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs, and the ability of the Company to manage those requirements. The Company strives to maintain an adequate liquidity position by managing the balances and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities so that the balance it has in short-term investments at any given time will adequately cover any reasonably anticipated immediate need for funds. Additionally, the Bank maintains relationships with correspondent banks, which could provide funds on short notice, if needed. The Company has invested in FHLB stock for the purpose of establishing credit lines with the FHLB.

The liquidity resources of the Company are monitored continuously by the ALCO Committee and on a periodic basis by state and federal regulatory authorities. As determined under guidelines established by these regulatory authorities, the Companys and the Banks liquidity ratios at June 30, 2014 were considered satisfactory. The Company is aware of no events or trends likely to result in a material change in liquidity.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company is exposed only to U.S. dollar interest rate changes, and, accordingly, the Company manages exposure by considering the possible changes in the net interest margin. The Company does not have any trading instruments nor does it classify any portion of the investment portfolio as held for trading. The Companys hedging activities are part of the Companys program to manage interest rate sensitivity. At June 30, 2014, the Company had one effective LIBOR rate swap with a notional amount of $37.1 million. The LIBOR rate swap exchanges fixed rate payments of 4.15% for floating rate payments based on the three month LIBOR and matures December 2018. The Company also had forward contracts with a fair value of approximately $2.6 million at June 30, 2014 to hedge changes in the value of the mortgage inventory due to changes in market interest rates. Finally, the Company has no exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk and other market risks.
Interest rates play a major part in the net interest income of a financial institution. The sensitivity to rate changes is known as interest rate risk. The repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities can influence the changes in net interest income. As part of the Companys asset/liability management program, the timing of repriced assets and liabilities is referred to as gap management.
The Company uses simulation analysis to monitor changes in net interest income due to changes in market interest rates. The simulation of rising, declining and flat interest rate scenarios allows management to monitor and adjust interest rate sensitivity to minimize the impact of market interest rate swings. The analysis of the impact on net interest income over a twelve-month period is subjected to a gradual and shock 200 basis point increase or decrease in market rates on net interest income and is monitored on a quarterly basis.
Additional information required by Item 305 of Regulation S-K is set forth under Part I, Item 2 of this report.
