INTRODUCTORY NOTE
Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements about our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations,
estimates and intentions that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, many of
which are beyond our control.
 
The words “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,”
 
“anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,”
“target,” “vision,” “goal,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
 
Our actual future results may differ materially from
those set forth in our forward-looking statements.
Our
 
ability
 
to
 
achieve
 
our
 
financial
 
objectives
 
could
 
be
 
adversely
 
affected
 
by
 
the
 
factors
 
discussed
 
in
 
detail
 
in
 
Part
 
II,
 
Item
 
1A.
 
“Risk
Factors” in
 
this Quarterly
 
Report on
 
Form 10-Q
 
and in
 
Part I,
 
Item 1A.
 
“Risk Factors”
 
in our
 
Annual Report
 
on Form
 
10-K/A for
 
the year
ended December 31,
 
2023 (the “2023
 
Form 10-K/A”), as
 
updated in our
 
subsequent quarterly reports
 
filed on Form
 
10-Q, as well
 
as, among
other factors:
our ability to successfully manage credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and other risks inherent to our industry;
legislative or regulatory changes;
adverse developments in the financial services industry generally, such as bank failures and any related impact on depositor behavior;
 
the effects of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits and the competition for deposits on our funding costs, net
interest margin and ability to replace maturing deposits and advances, as necessary;
 
inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations;
uncertainty in the pricing of residential mortgage loans that we sell, as well as competition for the mortgage servicing rights related to these
loans and related interest rate risk or price risk resulting from retaining mortgage servicing rights and the potential effects of higher interest
rates on our loan origination volumes;
changes in monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government;
the effects of security breaches and computer viruses that may affect our computer systems or fraud related to debit card products;
the accuracy of our financial statement estimates and assumptions, including the estimates used for our allowance for credit losses,
deferred tax asset valuation and pension plan;
changes in our liquidity position;
changes in accounting principles, policies, practices or guidelines;
the frequency and magnitude of foreclosure of our loans;
the effects of our lack of a diversified loan portfolio, including the risks of loan segments, geographic and industry concentrations;
the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations;
 
our ability to declare and pay dividends, the payment of which is subject to our capital requirements;
changes in the securities and real estate markets;
structural changes in the markets for origination, sale and servicing of residential mortgages;
our ability to retain key personnel;
the effects of natural disasters, harsh weather conditions (including hurricanes), widespread health emergencies (including pandemics, such
as the COVID-19 pandemic), military conflict, terrorism, civil unrest or other geopolitical events;
our ability to comply with the extensive laws and regulations to which we are subject, including the laws for each jurisdiction where we
operate;
the impact of the restatement of our previously issued consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022
and 2023 and for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2023, six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2023 and
nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2023;
any deficiencies in the processes undertaken to effect such restatements and to identify and correct all errors in our historical financial
statements that may require restatement;
any inability to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and/or disclosure control or inability to
remediate our existing material weaknesses in our internal controls deemed ineffective;
the willingness of clients to accept third-party products and services rather than our products and services and vice versa;
increased competition and its effect on pricing;
technological changes;
the cost and effects of cybersecurity incidents or other failures, interruptions, or security breaches of our systems of those of our customers
or third-party providers;
the outcomes of litigation or regulatory proceedings;
negative publicity and the impact on our reputation;
changes in consumer spending and saving habits;
growth and profitability of our noninterest income;
the limited trading activity of our common stock;
the concentration of ownership of our common stock;
anti-takeover provisions under federal and state law as well as our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws;
other risks described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and
our ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing.
4
However, other factors besides those listed in
Item 1A Risk Factors
 
or discussed in this Form 10-Q also could adversely affect our results,
and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.
 
Any forward-looking
statements made by us or on our behalf speak only as of the date they are made.
 
We do not undertake to update any forward-looking
statement, except as required by applicable law.

CAPITAL CITY BANK
 
GROUP,
 
INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED
 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 –
BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Nature of Operations
.
 
Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (“CCBG” or the “Company”) provides a full range of
 
banking and banking-
related services to individual and corporate clients through its subsidiary,
 
Capital City Bank, with banking offices located in Florida,
Georgia, and Alabama.
 
The Company is subject to competition from other financial institutions, is subject to
 
regulation by certain
government agencies and undergoes periodic examinations
 
by those regulatory authorities.
Basis of Presentation
.
 
The consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form
 
10-Q include the accounts of CCBG
and its wholly owned subsidiary,
 
Capital City Bank (“CCB” or the “Bank”).
 
All material inter-company transactions and accounts
have been eliminated.
 
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s
 
presentation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
 
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
 
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
 
Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted
 
accounting principles for complete financial
statements.
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
 
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.
 
The Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition at December
 
31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial
statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes
 
required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements.
 
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes
 
thereto included in the
Company’s 2023 Form
 
10-K/A.
Accounting Standards Updates
Adoption of New Accounting Standard,
 
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-02,
“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic
 
326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage
 
Disclosures.” ASU 2022-02 eliminates
the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings in Accounting
 
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310-40, “Receivables -
Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors
 
 
for entities that have adopted the current expected credit loss model introduced
 
by ASU
2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic
 
326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.”
 
ASU 2022-
02 also requires that public business entities disclose current-period
 
gross charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables
and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, “Financial
 
Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized
Cost.”
Proposed Accounting Standards
,
ASU
 
2023-01, “Leases (Topic
 
842)
:
 
Common Control Arrangements.” ASU 2023-01 requires
entities to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control
 
leases over the useful life to the common control group.
ASU 2023-01 also provides certain practical expedients applicable to private
 
companies and not-for-profit organizations. The
 
standard
is effective for the Company on January 1, 2024. As the Company
 
does not have any such common control leases, adoption of this
standard will not have any immediate impact on its consolidated financial statements and
 
related disclosures.
ASU No.
 
2023-02, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures
 
(Topic
 
323)
: Accounting for Investments in Tax
 
Credit
Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” ASU 2023-02
 
is intended to improve the accounting and disclosures for
investments in tax credit structures. ASU 2023-02 allows entities to elect to account
 
for qualifying tax equity investments using the
proportional amortization method, regardless of the program giving
 
rise to the related income tax credits. Previously,
 
this method was
only available for qualifying tax equity investments in low-income
 
housing tax credit structures. The standard is effective for the
Company on January 1, 2024. As the Company does not have any such investments
 
in tax credit structures that are accounted for
using the proportional amortization method, adoption of this standard will not
 
have any immediate impact on its consolidated financial
statements or disclosures.
 
ASU No. 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements
 
:
 
Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s
 
Disclosure Update and
Simplification Initiative.”
 
ASU 2023-06 is intended to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation
 
requirements of a variety of
topics, which will allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC's existing
 
disclosures with those entities that were
not previously subject to the requirements and align the requirements in
 
the FASB accounting standard
 
codification with the SEC's
regulations. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of
 
the amendments and the impact on its future consolidated
statements.

At March 31, 2024, there were
876
 
positions (combined AFS and HTM) with unrealized losses totaling $
64.8
 
million.
 
85
 
of these
positions are U.S. Treasury bonds and carry
 
the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
 
690
 
are U.S. government agency
securities issued by U.S. government sponsored entities.
 
We believe
 
the long history of no credit losses on government securities
indicates that the expectation of nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is effectively
 
zero.
 
The remaining
101
 
positions (municipal
securities and corporate bonds) have a credit component.
 
At March 31, 2024, all collateralized mortgage obligation securities,
mortgage-backed securities,
 
Small Business Administration securities,
 
U.S. Agency, and U.S. Treasury
 
bonds held were AAA rated.
 
At March 31, 2024, corporate debt securities had an allowance for credit losses of $
43,000
 
and municipal securities had an allowance
of $
39,000
.
Credit Quality Indicators
The Company monitors the credit quality of its investment securities through
 
various risk management procedures, including the
monitoring of credit ratings.
 
A majority of the debt securities in the Company’s
 
investment portfolio were issued by a U.S.
government entity or agency and are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed
 
by the U.S. government.
 
The Company believes the
long history of no credit losses on these securities indicates that the expectation
 
of nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is
effectively zero, even if the U.S. government were
 
to technically default.
 
Further, certain municipal securities held by the Company
have been pre-refunded and secured by government guaranteed treasuries.
 
Therefore, for the aforementioned securities, the Company
does
no
t assess or record expected credit losses due to the zero loss assumption.
 
The Company monitors the credit quality of its
municipal and corporate securities portfolio via credit ratings
 
which are updated on a quarterly basis.
 
On a quarterly basis, municipal
and corporate securities in an unrealized loss position are evaluated to determine
 
if the loss is attributable to credit related factors and
if an allowance for credit loss is needed.

Allowance for Credit Losses
.
 
The methodology for estimating the amount of credit losses reported in the
 
allowance for credit losses
(“ACL”) has two basic components: first, an asset-specific component
 
involving loans that do not share risk characteristics and the
measurement of expected credit losses for such individual loans; and second,
 
a pooled component for expected credit losses for pools
of loans that share similar risk characteristics.
 
This allowance methodology is discussed further in Note 1 – Significant
 
Accounting
Policies in the Company’s 2023 Form
 
10-K/A.
 
The following table details the activity in the allowance for credit losses by portfolio
 
segment.
 
Allocation of a portion of the
allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb
 
losses in other categories.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the allowance for HFI loans
 
decreased by $
0.6
 
million and reflected a provision expense
of $
0.9
 
million and net loan charge-offs of $
1.5
 
million.
 
The decrease was primarily due to favorable loan grade migration, lower loss
rates, and a combination of lower loan balances and shift in mix within the
 
portfolio.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the
allowance for HFI loans increased by $
1.7
 
million and reflected a provision expense of $
3.3
 
million and net loan charge-offs of $
1.5
million.
 
The increase was primarily driven by incremental reserves needed for loan growth.
 
Unemployment forecast scenarios were
utilized to estimate probability of default and are weighted based on management’s
 
estimate of probability.
 
See Note 8 –
Commitments and Contingencies for information on the
 
allowance for off-balance sheet credit commitments.

Nonaccrual Loans
.
 
Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments
 
become 90 days past due and/or
management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to
 
be doubtful.
 
Loans are returned to accrual status when the
principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current
 
or when future payments are reasonably assured.
 
The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans in nonaccrual

Loans
$

$
3,277
$
30
A loan is collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial
 
difficulty and repayment of the loan is dependent on
 
the
sale or operation of the underlying collateral.
 
The Bank’s collateral dependent
 
loan portfolio is comprised primarily of real estate secured loans, collateralized
 
by either residential
or commercial collateral types.
 
The loans are carried at fair value based on current values determined by
 
either independent appraisals
or internal evaluations, adjusted for selling costs or other amounts to be deducted
 
when estimating expected net sales proceeds.
 
Residential Real Estate Loans In Process of Foreclosure
.
 
At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $
0.8
 
million
and $
0.5
 
million, respectively, in 1-4 family
 
residential real estate loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process.
Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing
 
Financial Difficulty.
 
Occasionally, the Company may
 
modify loans to borrowers who are
experiencing financial difficulty.
 
Loan modifications to borrowers in financial difficulty are loans in
 
which the Company has granted
an economic concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider.
 
In these instances, as part of a work-out alternative, the
Company will make concessions including the extension of the loan
 
term, a principal moratorium, a reduction in the interest rate, or a
combination thereof.
 
The impact of the modifications and defaults are factored into the allowance for credit
 
losses on a loan-by-loan
basis.
 
Thus specific reserves are established based upon the results of either
 
a discounted cash flow analysis or the underlying
collateral value, if the loan is deemed to be collateral dependent.
 
A modified loan classification can be removed if the borrower’s
financial condition improves such that the borrower is no longer in financial difficulty,
 
the loan has not had any forgiveness of
principal or interest, and the loan is subsequently refinanced or restructured
 
at market terms and qualifies as a new loan.
At March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company did
 
no
t have any modified loans made to borrowers due to the borrower
experiencing financial difficulty.
 
Credit Risk Management
.
 
The Company has adopted comprehensive lending policies, underwriting standards and
 
loan review
procedures designed to maximize loan income within an acceptable level
 
of risk.
 
Management and the Board of Directors review and
approve these policies and procedures on a regular basis (at least annually).
 
Reporting systems are used to monitor loan originations, loan quality,
 
concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and nonperforming
loans and potential problem loans.
 
Management and the Credit Risk Oversight Committee periodically review
 
our lines of business to
monitor asset quality trends and the appropriateness of credit policies.
 
In addition, total borrower exposure limits are established and
concentration risk is monitored.
 
As part of this process, the overall composition of the portfolio is reviewed to gauge diversification
of risk, client concentrations, industry group, loan type, geographic area, or other
 
relevant classifications of loans.
 
Specific segments
of the loan portfolio are monitored and reported to the Board on a quarterly basis and
 
have strategic plans in place to supplement
Board approved credit policies governing exposure limits and underwriting
 
standards.
 
Detailed below are the types of loans within
the Company’s loan portfolio
 
and risk characteristics unique to each.
 
Commercial, Financial, and Agricultural – Loans in this category
 
are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower
with consideration given to underlying collateral and personal or
 
other guarantees.
 
Lending policy establishes debt service coverage
ratio limits that require a borrower’s cash flow to be sufficient
 
to cover principal and interest payments on all new and existing debt.
 
The majority of these loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such
 
as accounts receivable, inventory,
 
or
equipment.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party appraisals and evaluations.
 
Loan to value ratios at origination are
governed by established policy guidelines.
 
18
Real Estate Construction – Loans in this category consist of short-term
 
construction loans, revolving and non-revolving credit lines
and construction/permanent loans made to individuals and investors to finance
 
the acquisition, development, construction or
rehabilitation of real property.
 
These loans are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower
 
or project and generally
secured by the property being financed, including 1-4 family residential properties
 
and commercial properties that are either owner-
occupied or investment in nature.
 
These properties may include either vacant or improved property.
 
Construction loans are generally
based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the completed project.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third
party appraisals and evaluations.
 
Loan to value ratios at origination are governed by established policy guidelines.
 
The disbursement
of funds for construction loans is made in relation to the progress of the project and
 
as such these loans are closely monitored by on-
site inspections.
 
Real Estate Commercial Mortgage – Loans in this category consists of commercial
 
mortgage loans secured by property that is either
owner-occupied or investment in nature.
 
These loans are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower or
 
project
with consideration given to underlying real estate collateral and
 
personal guarantees.
 
Lending policy establishes debt service
coverage ratios and loan to value ratios specific to the property type.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party
appraisals and evaluations.
 
Real Estate Residential – Residential mortgage loans held in the Company’s
 
loan portfolio are made to borrowers that demonstrate the
ability to make scheduled payments with full consideration to underwriting
 
factors such as current income, employment status, current
assets, and other financial resources, credit history,
 
and the value of the collateral.
 
Collateral consists of mortgage liens on 1-4 family
residential properties.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party appraisals and evaluations.
 
The Company does not
originate sub-prime loans.
 
Real Estate Home Equity – Home equity loans and lines are made to qualified individuals
 
for legitimate purposes generally secured
by senior or junior mortgage liens on owner-occupied
 
1-4 family homes or vacation homes.
 
Borrower qualifications include
favorable credit history combined with supportive income and debt ratio
 
requirements and combined loan to value ratios within
established policy guidelines.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party appraisals and evaluations.
 
Consumer Loans – This loan portfolio includes personal installment loans, direct
 
and indirect automobile financing, and overdraft
lines of credit.
 
The majority of the consumer loan category consists of direct and indirect automobile
 
loans.
 
Lending policy
establishes maximum debt to income ratios, minimum credit scores, and includes
 
guidelines for verification of applicants’ income and
receipt of credit reports.
 
 
 
 
Credit Quality Indicators
.
 
As part of the ongoing monitoring of the Company’s
 
loan portfolio quality, management
 
categorizes loans
into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to
 
service their debt such as: current financial
information, historical payment performance, credit documentation,
 
and current economic and market trends, among other
factors.
 
Risk ratings are assigned to each loan and revised as needed through established monitoring
 
procedures for individual loan
relationships over a predetermined amount and review of smaller balance homogenous
 
loan pools.
 
The Company uses the definitions
noted below for categorizing and managing its criticized loans.
 
Loans categorized as “Pass” do not meet the criteria set forth below
and are not considered criticized.
Special Mention – Loans in this category are presently protected from loss, but
 
weaknesses are apparent which, if not corrected, could
cause future problems.
 
Loans in this category may not meet required underwriting criteria and
 
have no mitigating factors.
 
More than
the ordinary amount of attention is warranted for these loans.
Substandard – Loans in this category exhibit well-defined weaknesses that would
 
typically bring normal repayment into jeopardy.
These loans are no longer adequately protected due to well-defined
 
weaknesses that affect the repayment capacity of the
borrower.
 
The possibility of loss is much more evident and above average supervision is required for
 
these loans.
Doubtful – Loans in this category have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan categorized
 
as Substandard, with the characteristic that
the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently
 
existing facts, conditions, and values, highly
questionable and improbable.
Performing/Nonperforming – Loans within certain homogenous
 
loan pools (home equity and consumer) are not individually reviewed,
but are monitored for credit quality via the aging status of the loan and by payment
 
activity.
 
The performing or nonperforming status
is updated on an on-going basis dependent upon improvement and
 
deterioration in credit quality.

NOTE 4 – MORTGAGE BANKING ACTIVITIES
The Company’s mortgage
 
banking activities include mandatory delivery loan sales, forward sales contracts used
 
to manage residential
loan pipeline price risk, utilization of warehouse lines to fund secondary
 
market residential loan closings, and residential mortgage
servicing.
 
Residential Mortgage Loan Production
The Company originates, markets, and services conventional and government
 
-sponsored residential mortgage loans.
 
Generally,
conforming fixed rate residential mortgage loans are held for sale in the secondary
 
market and non-conforming and adjustable-rate
residential mortgage loans may be held for investment.
 
The volume of residential mortgage loans originated for sale and secondary
market prices are the primary drivers of origination revenue.
Residential mortgage loan commitments are generally outstanding for 30
 
to 90 days, which represents the typical period from
commitment to originate a residential mortgage loan to when the closed
 
loan is sold to an investor.
 
Residential mortgage loan
commitments are subject to both credit and price risk.
 
Credit risk is managed through underwriting policies and procedures,
 
including
collateral requirements, which are generally accepted by the secondary
 
loan markets.
 
Price risk is primarily related to interest rate
fluctuations and is partially managed through forward sales of residential mortgage
 
-backed securities (primarily to-be announced
securities, or TBAs) or mandatory delivery commitments with investors.
 
The unpaid principal balance of residential mortgage loans held for sale, notional
 
amounts of derivative contracts related to residential
mortgage loan commitments and forward contract sales and their related fair values
 
are set- forth below.

Conforming conventional loans serviced by the Company are sold to Federal
 
National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) on a non-
recourse basis, whereby foreclosure losses are generally
 
the responsibility of FNMA and not the Company.
 
The government loans
serviced by the Company are secured through the Government National
 
Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), whereby the Company is
insured against loss by the Federal Housing Administration or partially
 
guaranteed against loss by the Veterans
 
Administration.
 
At
March 31, 2024, the servicing portfolio balance consisted of the following
 
loan types: FNMA (
55
%), GNMA (
4
%), and private
investor (
41
%).
 
FNMA and private investor loans are structured as actual/actual payment remittance.
 
The Company had
no
 
delinquent residential mortgage loans in GNMA pools serviced by the Company
 
at March 31, 2024 and
December 31, 2023, respectively.
 
The right to repurchase these loans and the corresponding liability has been
 
recorded in other assets
and other liabilities, respectively,
 
in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
 
The Company had
no
 
repurchases for the
three months ended March 31, 2024, and $
0.3
 
million repurchased for the three months ended March 31, 2023, in delinquent
residential loans from the GNMA pools. When delinquent residential loans
 
are repurchased, the Company has the intention to modify
their terms and include the loans in new GNMA pools.

loans held for sale pledged as collateral under the above
warehouse lines of credit and master repurchase agreements.
 
The above agreements also contain covenants which include certain
financial requirements, including maintenance of minimum tangible
 
net worth, minimum liquid assets, and maximum debt to net
worth ratio, as defined in the agreements.
 
The Company was in compliance with all significant debt covenants at March 31,
 
2024.
 
The Company has extended a $
50
 
million warehouse line of credit to CCHL, a
51
% owned subsidiary entity.
 
Balances and
transactions under this line of credit are eliminated in the Company’s
 
consolidated financial statements and thus not included in the
total short term borrowings noted on the Consolidated Statement of
 
Financial Condition.
 
The balance of this line of credit was $
31.4
million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
 
NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVES
 
The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures
 
that arise from business activities that result in the
receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of
 
which are determined by interest rates.
 
The Company’s
derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in
 
the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s
 
known or
expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally
 
related to the Company’s subordinated
 
debt.
 
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $
30
 
million at March 31, 2024 were designed as a cash flow hedge for subordinated
debt.
 
Under the swap arrangement, the Company will pay a fixed interest rate of
2.50
% and receive a variable interest rate based on
three-month CME Term
 
SOFR (secured overnight financing rate).
For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate
 
risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in
accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and subsequently
 
reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during
which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported
 
in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives
will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the
 
Company’s variable-rate subordinated
 
debt.

statements of financial condition

NOTE 6 – LEASES
Operating leases in which the Company is the lessee are recorded as operating
 
lease right of use (“ROU”) assets and operating
liabilities, included in other assets and liabilities, respectively,
 
on its Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
 
The Company’s operating
 
leases primarily relate to banking offices with remaining lease terms
 
from
1
 
to
42
 
years.
 
The Company’s
leases are not complex and do not contain residual value guarantees, variable
 
lease payments, or significant assumptions or judgments
made in applying the requirements of Topic
 
842.
 
Operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the
Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and the related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
 
At March 31, 2024, the operating lease ROU assets and liabilities were $
26.2
 
million and $
26.8
 
million, respectively. At December
31, 2023, ROU assets and liabilities were $
27.0
 
million and $
27.4
 
million, respectively.
 
The Company does not have any finance
leases or any significant lessor agreements.

additional operating lease obligation for a banking office (to be constructed)
 
that has not yet
commenced.
 
The lease has payments totaling $
3.8
 
million based on an initial contract term of
15
 
years.
 
Payments for the banking
office are expected to commence after the construction period
 
ends, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of 2024.
A related party is the lessor in a land lease with the Company.
 
The payments under the lease agreement provide for annual lease
payments of approximately $
0.1
 
million annually through December 2033, and thereafter,
 
increase by
5
% every
10
 
years until 2053 at
which time the rent amount will adjust based on reappraisal of the parcel rental
 
value.
 
The Company then has
four
 
successive options
to extend the lease for
five years
 
each with rental increases of 5% at each extension.
 
The aggregate remaining obligation of the lease
totaled $
2.2
 
million at March 31, 2024.
 
NOTE 7 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all full-time
 
and eligible part-time associates and a
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) and a Supplemental
 
Executive Retirement Plan II (“SERP II”) covering its
executive officers.
 
The defined benefit plan was amended in December 2019 to remove plan eligibility
 
for new associates hired after
December 31, 2019.
 
The SERP II was adopted by the Company’s
 
Board on May 21, 2020 and covers certain executive officers that
were not covered by the SERP.
 
The components of the net periodic benefit cost for the Company’s
 
qualified benefit pension plan were as follows:

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lending Commitments
.
 
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance
 
sheet risks in the normal course of business
to meet the financing needs of its clients.
 
These financial instruments consist of commitments to extend credit and standby
 
letters of
credit.
The Company’s maximum exposure
 
to credit loss under standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit is represented
 
by
the contractual amount of those instruments.
 
The Company uses the same credit policies in establishing commitments
 
and issuing
letters of credit as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
 
The amounts associated with the Company’s
 
off-balance sheet
obligations were as follows:

Commitments include unfunded loans, revolving
 
lines of credit, and off-balance sheet residential
 
loan commitments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client so 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.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the
 
Company to guarantee the performance of a client to a third
party.
 
The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved
 
in extending loan facilities. In
general, management does not anticipate any material losses as a result of
 
participating in these types of transactions.
 
However, any
potential losses arising from such transactions are reserved for in the same manner
 
as management reserves for its other credit
facilities.
For both on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments, the Company
 
requires collateral to support such instruments when it is
deemed necessary.
 
The Company evaluates each client’s
 
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
 
The amount of collateral
obtained upon extension of credit is based on management’s
 
credit evaluation of the counterparty.
 
Collateral held varies, but may
include deposits held in financial institutions; U.S. Treasury
 
securities; other marketable securities; real estate; accounts receivable;
property, plant and
 
equipment; and inventory.
The allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet credit commitments
 
that are not unconditionally cancellable by the bank is
adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense and is recorded in other liabilities.
 
The following table shows the activity in the
allowance.

Other Commitments.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into lease commitments
 
which are classified as operating
leases. See Note 6 – Leases for additional information on the maturity of the
 
Company’s operating lease commitments.
 
The Company has an outstanding commitment of up to $
1.0
 
million in a bank tech venture capital fund focused on finding and
funding technology solutions for community banks.
 
At March 31, 2024, the amount remaining to be funded for the commitment
 
was
$
0.4
 
million.
 
Contingencies
.
 
The Company is a party to lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course of business.
 
In management's opinion,
there are
no
 
known pending claims or litigation, the outcome of which would, individually or in
 
the aggregate, have a material effect
on the consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows
 
of the Company.
Indemnification Obligation
.
 
The Company is a member of the Visa U.S.A. network.
 
Visa U.S.A member banks are
 
required to
indemnify the Visa U.S.A.
 
network for potential future settlement of certain litigation (the “Covered Litigation”)
 
that relates to several
antitrust lawsuits challenging the practices of Visa
 
and MasterCard International.
 
In 2008, the Company, as a member
 
of the Visa
U.S.A. network, obtained Class B shares of Visa,
 
Inc. upon its initial public offering.
 
Since its initial public offering, Visa,
 
Inc. has
funded a litigation reserve for the Covered Litigation resulting in a reduction
 
in the Class B shares held by the Company.
 
During the
first quarter of 2011, the Company sold its remaining
 
Class B shares.
 
Associated with this sale, the Company entered into a swap
contract with the purchaser of the shares that requires a payment to the
 
counterparty in the event that Visa, Inc. makes
 
subsequent
revisions to the conversion ratio for its Class B shares.
 
Conversion ratio payments and ongoing fixed quarterly charges
 
are reflected in
earnings in the period incurred.
 
Fixed charges included in the swap liability are payable quarterly
 
until the litigation reserve is fully
liquidated and at which time the aforementioned swap contract will be terminated.
 
Quarterly fixed payments approximate $
0.2
million.
 
NOTE 9 – FAIR VALUE
 
MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell that asset or paid
 
to transfer that liability in an orderly
transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in
 
the absence of a principal market) for such asset or
liability.
 
In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that are consistent with
 
the market approach, the income
approach and/or the cost approach.
 
Such valuation techniques are consistently applied.
 
Inputs to valuation techniques include the
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
 
ASC Topic 820
 
establishes a fair value hierarchy for
valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets
 
for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest
priority to unobservable inputs.
 
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 Inputs -
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting
 
entity has the
ability to access at the measurement date
.
Level 2 Inputs -
Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
 
either directly
or indirectly. These might
 
include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices
 
for identical
or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other
 
than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or
liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
or inputs that are derived principally from, or
corroborated, by market data by correlation or other means
.
Level 3 Inputs -
Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect
 
an entity’s own
assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would
 
use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
 
on a Recurring Basis
Securities Available for Sale.
 
U.S. Treasury securities are reported at fair value
 
utilizing Level 1 inputs.
 
Other securities classified as
available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs.
 
For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements
from an independent pricing service.
 
The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes,
 
market
spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve,
 
live trading levels, trade execution data, credit information and the bond’s
 
terms
and conditions, among other things.
28
In general, the Company does not purchase securities that have a complicated structure.
 
The Company’s entire portfolio consists
 
of
traditional investments, nearly all of which are U.S. Treasury
 
obligations, federal agency bullet or mortgage pass-through
 
securities, or
general obligation or revenue-based municipal bonds.
 
Pricing for such instruments is easily obtained.
 
At least annually, the Company
will validate prices supplied by the independent pricing service by compari
 
ng them to prices obtained from an independent third-party
source.
Equity Securities.
 
Investment securities classified as equity securities are carried at cost and
 
the share of earnings or losses is reported
through net income as an adjustment to the investment balance. These securities are not
 
readily marketable and therefore are classified
as a Level 3 input within the fair value hierarchy.
Loans Held for Sale
.
 
The fair value of residential mortgage loans held for sale based on Level 2 inputs is determined,
 
when possible,
using either quoted secondary-market prices or investor commitments.
 
If no such quoted price exists, the fair value is determined
using quoted prices for a similar asset or assets, adjusted for the specific attributes of
 
that loan, which would be used by other market
participants.
 
The Company has elected the fair value option accounting for its held for sale loans.
Mortgage Banking Derivative Instruments.
 
The fair values of interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) are derived by valuation
models incorporating market pricing for instruments with similar characteristics,
 
commonly referred to as best execution pricing, or
investor commitment prices for best effort IRLCs which have
 
unobservable inputs, such as an estimate of the fair value of the
servicing rights expected to be recorded upon sale of the loans, net estimated costs to originate
 
the loans, and the pull-through rate,
and are therefore classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.
 
The fair value of forward sale commitments is based on
observable market pricing for similar instruments and are therefore
 
classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Interest Rate Swap.
The Company’s derivative positions are
 
classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and are valued using
models generally accepted in the financial services industry and that
 
use actively quoted or observable market input values from
external market data providers.
 
The fair value derivatives are determined using discounted cash flow models.
 
Fair Value
 
Swap
.
 
The Company entered into a stand-alone derivative contract with the purchaser of
 
its Visa Class B shares.
 
The
valuation represents the amount due and payable to the counterparty based upon
 
the revised share conversion rate, if any,
 
during the
period. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were
no
 
amounts payable.

Mortgage Banking Activities
.
 
The Company had Level 3 issuances and transfers related to mortgage banking
 
activities of $
2.1
 
million
and $
2.8
 
million, respectively, for the three
 
months ended March 31, 2024, and $
4.3
 
million and $
6.7
 
million, respectively, for the
three months ended March 31, 2023.
 
Issuances are valued based on the change in fair value of the underlying mortgage
 
loan from
inception of the IRLC to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition
 
date, adjusted for pull-through rates and costs to originate.
 
IRLCs transferred out of Level 3 represent IRLCs that were funded and moved
 
to mortgage loans held for sale, at fair value.
Assets Measured at Fair Value
 
on a Non-Recurring Basis
Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis (i.e.,
 
the assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis
but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances).
 
An example would be assets exhibiting evidence of impairment.
 
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets measured
 
on a non-recurring basis.
 
Collateral Dependent Loans
.
 
Impairment for collateral dependent loans is measured using the fair
 
value of the collateral less selling
costs.
 
The fair value of collateral is determined by an independent valuation
 
or professional appraisal in conformance with banking
regulations.
 
Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs due to the volatility in the real estate market,
 
and the judgment and
estimation involved in the real estate appraisal process.
 
Collateral dependent loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly
basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.
 
Valuation
 
techniques are consistent with those techniques applied in prior
periods.
 
Collateral-dependent loans had a carrying value of $
4.0
 
million with a valuation allowance of $
0.1
 
million at March 31,
2024 and a carrying value of $
3.3
 
million and a $
0.1
 
million valuation allowance at December 31, 2023.
30
Other Real Estate Owned
.
 
During the first three months of 2024, certain foreclosed assets, upon initial recognition,
 
were measured
and reported at fair value through a charge-off
 
to the allowance for credit losses based on the fair value of the foreclosed asset less
estimated cost to sell.
 
The fair value of the foreclosed asset is determined by an independent valuation or
 
professional appraisal in
conformance with banking regulations.
 
On an ongoing basis, we obtain updated appraisals on foreclosed assets and realize valuation
adjustments as necessary.
 
The fair value of foreclosed assets is estimated using Level 3 inputs due to the judgment
 
and estimation
involved in the real estate valuation process.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
.
 
Residential mortgage loan servicing rights are evaluated for impairment
 
at each reporting period based
upon the fair value of the rights as compared to the carrying amount.
 
Fair value is determined by a third party valuation model using
estimated prepayment speeds of the underlying mortgage loans serviced and
 
stratifications based on the risk characteristics of the
underlying loans (predominantly loan type and note interest rate).
 
The fair value is estimated using Level 3 inputs, including a
discount rate, weighted average prepayment speed, and the cost of loan
 
servicing.
 
Further detail on the key inputs utilized are
provided in Note 4 – Mortgage Banking Activities.
 
At each of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was
no
 
valuation
allowance for loan servicing rights.
 
Assets and Liabilities Disclosed at Fair Value
The Company is required to disclose the estimated fair value of financial instruments,
 
both assets and liabilities, for which it is
practical to estimate fair value and the following is a description of valuation
 
methodologies used for those assets and liabilities.
Cash and Short-Term
 
Investments.
 
The carrying amount of cash and short-term investments is used to approximate
 
fair value, given
the short time frame to maturity and as such assets do not present unanticipated
 
credit concerns.
Securities Held to Maturity
.
 
Securities held to maturity are valued in accordance with the methodology previously
 
noted in the
caption “Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
 
on a Recurring Basis – Securities Available
 
for Sale.”
Other Equity Securities.
 
Other equity securities are accounted for under the equity method (Topic
 
323) and recorded at cost.
 
These
securities are not readily marketable securities and are reflected in Other
 
Assets on the Statement of Financial Condition.
 
Loans.
 
The loan portfolio is segregated into categories and the fair value of each loan category is calculated
 
using present value
techniques based upon projected cash flows and estimated discount
 
rates.
 
The values reported reflect the incorporation of a liquidity
discount to meet the objective of “exit price” valuation.
 
Deposits.
 
The fair value of Noninterest Bearing Deposits, NOW Accounts, Money Market
 
Accounts and Savings Accounts are the
amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity
 
certificates of deposit is estimated using present
value techniques and rates currently offered for deposits of
 
similar remaining maturities.
Subordinated Notes Payable.
 
The fair value of each note is calculated using present value techniques,
 
based upon projected cash
flows and estimated discount rates as well as rates being offered
 
for similar obligations.
Short-Term
 
and Long-Term
 
Borrowings.
 
The fair value of each note is calculated using present value techniques,
 
based upon
projected cash flows and estimated discount rates as well as rates being offered
 
for similar debt.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
 
OF
OPERATIONS
Management’s discussion
 
and analysis (“MD&A”) provides supplemental information, which sets forth
 
the major factors that have
affected our financial condition and results of operations
 
and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements and related notes.
 
The following information should provide a better understanding of
 
the major factors and trends that
affect our earnings performance and financial condition,
 
and how our performance during the first quarter of 2024 compares with prior
periods.
 
Throughout this section, Capital City Bank Group, Inc., and subsidiaries, collectively,
 
is referred to as “CCBG,”
 
“Company,”
“we,” “us,” or “our.”
CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD
 
-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this MD&A section, contains
 
“forward-looking statements”
 
within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
 
These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements about
 
our
beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, estimates and intentions that are
 
subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are
subject to change based on various factors, many of which are beyond
 
our control.
 
The words “may,”
 
“could,” “should,” “would,”
“believe,” “anticipate,”
 
“estimate,” “expect,”
 
“intend,” “plan,”
 
“target,”
 
“vision,” “goal,”
 
and similar expressions are intended to
identify forward-looking statements.
All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
 
Our actual future results may differ materially
from those set forth in our forward-looking statements.
 
Please see the Introductory Note of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q
 
as well
as the Introductory Note and
Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
of our 2023 Form 10-K/A, as updated in our subsequent quarterly reports filed
 
on
Form 10-Q, and in our other filings made from time to time with the SEC after the date
 
of this report.
However, other factors besides those listed in our
 
Quarterly Report or in our Annual Report also could adversely affect our
 
results,
and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or
 
uncertainties.
 
Any forward-looking
statements made by us or on our behalf speak only as of the date they are made.
 
We do not undertake to
 
update any forward-looking
statement, except as required by applicable law.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a financial
 
holding company headquartered in Tallahassee,
 
Florida, and we are the parent of our wholly owned subsidiary,
Capital City Bank (the “Bank” or “CCB”).
 
We offer
 
a broad array of products and services through a total of 63 full-service offices
and 104 ATMs/ITMs
 
located in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama.
 
Through Capital City Home Loans, LLC (“CCHL”), we have 29
additional offices in the Southeast for our mortgage banking business.
 
We provide
 
a full range of banking services, including
traditional deposit and credit services, mortgage banking, asset management,
 
trust, merchant services, bankcards, securities brokerage
services and financial advisory services, including life insurance products
 
,
 
risk management and asset protection services.
 
Our profitability, like
 
most financial institutions, is dependent to a large extent upon net
 
interest income, which is the difference
between the interest and fees received on interest earning assets, such as loans and
 
securities, and the interest paid on interest-bearing
liabilities, principally deposits and borrowings.
 
Results of operations are also affected by the provision for credit losses, operating
expenses such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and other
 
operating expenses including income taxes, and noninterest
income such as mortgage banking revenues, wealth management fees,
 
deposit fees, and bank card fees.
We have included
 
a detailed discussion of the economic conditions in our markets and our long-term strategic
 
objectives as part of the
MD&A section of our 2023 Form 10-K/A.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)
We present a tangible
 
common equity ratio and a tangible book value per diluted share that, in each case, removes
 
the effect of
goodwill and other intangibles that resulted from merger
 
and acquisition activity. We
 
believe these measures are useful to investors
because it allows investors to more easily compare our capital adequacy to
 
other companies in the industry.
 
The generally accepted
accounting principles (“GAAP”) to non-GAAP reconciliation for
 
each quarter presented is provided below.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
Results of Operations
Performance Summary
.
 
Net income attributable to common shareowners totaled $12.6 million,
 
or $0.74 per diluted share, for the first
quarter of 2024 compared to $11.7 million,
 
or $0.70 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, and $13.7
 
million, or $0.80 per
diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023.
 
Net Interest Income
.
 
Tax-equivalent net
 
interest income for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $38.4 million compared to
 
$39.3 million
for the fourth quarter of 2023, and $40.5 million for the first quarter of
 
2023.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the decline was
primarily attributable to an increase in deposit interest expense, partially offset
 
by higher loan interest income.
 
Our net interest margin
for the first quarter of 2024 was 4.01%, a decrease of six basis points from
 
the fourth quarter of 2023 and a decrease of three basis
points from the first quarter of 2023.
 
Provision and Allowance for Credit
 
Losses.
 
We recorded
 
a provision for credit losses of $0.9 million for the first quarter of 2024
compared to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $3.1
 
million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
The decrease in the provision
compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily attributable to a lower
 
level of reserves required for new loans, favorable loan
grade migration, and lower loss rates.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease was driven by lower new
 
loan growth in the
first quarter of 2024.
Noninterest Income
.
 
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $18.1 million compared to
 
$17.2 million for the fourth
quarter of 2023 and $17.8 million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
The $0.9 million increase over the fourth quarter of 2023 was due to a
$0.5 million increase in mortgage banking revenues and a $0.4 million increase
 
in wealth management fees.
 
Compared to the first
quarter of 2023, the $0.3 million increase was primarily attributable to higher
 
wealth management fees of $0.7 million partially offset
by lower other income of $0.3 million.
 
Noninterest Expense
.
 
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $40.2 million compared to $40.0
 
million for the fourth
quarter of 2023 and $37.7 million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
The $0.2 million increase over the fourth quarter of 2023 reflected a
$0.6 million increase in compensation expense that was partially offset
 
by decreases in occupancy expense of $0.1 million and other
expense of $0.3 million.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the $2.5 million increase reflected
 
higher other expense as we realized
a $1.8 million gain from the sale of other real estate (banking office) in
 
the first quarter of 2023.
 
Further, compensation expense was
$0.9 million higher primarily due to a lower level of realized loan cost (credit offset
 
to salary expense) due to decreased new loan
production.
Financial Condition
Earning Assets.
Average earning
 
assets totaled $3.850 billion for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $25.6 million,
 
or 0.7%, over
the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $213.1 million, or 5.2%, from the
 
first quarter of 2023.
 
The variance for both prior
period comparisons was driven by change in deposit balances.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the mix of earning assets improved as
overnight funds were utilized to fund loan growth.
Loans.
Average loans held for
 
investment (“HFI”) increased $17.4 million, or 0.6%, over the fourth
 
quarter of 2023 and $146.2
million, or 5.7%, over the first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the increase was primarily due to an increase in
residential loans partially offset by a decline in consumer
 
loans (primarily auto).
 
Period end loans decreased $2.7 million, or 0.1%,
from the fourth quarter of 2023 and increased $74.0 million, or 2.8%, over the
 
first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to the first quarter of
2023, the increase reflected growth in residential loans and to a lesser extent commercial
 
real estate loans partially offset by lower
consumer (auto) loan balances.
 
Credit Quality
. Overall credit quality remained stable.
 
Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and other real estate) totaled $6.8
million at March 31, 2024 compared to $6.2 million at December 31, 2023
 
and $4.6 million at March 31, 2023.
 
At March 31, 2024,
nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets equaled 0.16% compared to
 
0.15% at December 31, 2023 and 0.10% at March 31,
2023.
 
Nonaccrual loans totaled $6.8 million at March 31, 2024, a $0.6 million increase over December
 
31, 2023 and a $2.2 million
increase over March 31, 2023.
 
Further, classified loans totaled $22.3 million at March
 
31, 2024, a $0.1 million increase over
December 31, 2023 and a $10.1 million increase over March 31, 2023.

Deposits
. Average total
 
deposits were $3.577 billion for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $28.0 million,
 
or 0.8%, over the fourth
quarter of 2023 and a decrease of $240.8 million, or 6.3%, from the first
 
quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, the
increase reflected a higher average balance for public funds (municipal clients
 
- primarily NOW accounts) which typically peak late in
the fourth quarter.
 
Further, we realized growth in both our money market
 
and certificates of deposit (“CD”) balances which reflected
a combination of balances migrating from noninterest bearing and savings accounts,
 
in addition to receiving new deposits from
existing and new clients.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease was primarily attributable to lower noninterest
 
bearing
and savings accounts, partially offset by increases in money market
 
and CD balances.
 
The decrease in noninterest bearing and savings
accounts reflected a combination of consumer/business spend of pandemic
 
related stimulus funds and rate sensitive clients seeking
higher yields, partially offset by the aforementioned migration
 
to higher rate deposit products (money market and CD).
 
Capital
. At March 31, 2024, we were “well-capitalized”
 
with a total risk-based capital ratio of 16.84% and a tangible common equity
ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure) of 8.53% compared to 16.57%
 
and 8.26%, respectively,
 
at December 31, 2023 and 15.29% and
7.20%, respectively,
 
at March 31, 2023.
 
At March 31, 2024, all of our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the threshold to be “well-
capitalized”
 
under the Basel III capital standards.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income represents our single largest source of
 
earnings and is equal to interest income and fees generated by earning
assets less interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities.
 
This information is provided on a “taxable equivalent” basis to reflect
the tax-exempt status of income earned on certain loans and state and local
 
government debt obligations.
 
We provide an analysis of
our net interest income including average yields and rates in Table
 
I, “Average Balances
 
& Interest Rates,” on page 47.
Tax-equivalent net
 
interest income for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $38.4 million compared to $39.3 million
 
for the fourth quarter
of 2023, and $40.5 million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the decline was primarily attributable to an
increase in deposit interest expense, partially offset by higher
 
loan interest income.
 
The increase in deposit interest expense was
primarily attributable to higher average money market balances and to a lesser extent
 
CD balances and reflected a combination of re-
mix from other deposit categories and higher rates for these products.
 
The increase in loan interest income reflected existing loans re-
pricing at higher rates and new loan volume at higher rates.
 
Further, the first quarter of 2024 had one less calendar
 
day compared to
the fourth quarter of 2023 and one additional calendar day compared to the first
 
quarter of 2023.

Our net interest margin for the first quarter of 2024 was 4.01%, a decrease
 
of six basis points from the fourth quarter of 2023 and a
decrease of three basis points from the first quarter of 2023. For the month
 
of March, our net interest margin was 4.02%. The decrease
compared to both prior periods primarily reflected higher deposit cost related
 
to re-mix within the deposit base and higher rates paid
on deposits, partially offset by higher yields from new loan volume
 
and loan repricing at higher rates. For the first quarter of 2024, our
cost of funds was 88 basis points, an increase of 15 basis points over the fourth
 
quarter of 2023 and an increase of 53 basis points over
the first quarter of 2023.
 
Our cost of deposits (including noninterest bearing accounts) was 85 basis points, 66 basis points,
 
and 26
basis points, respectively,
 
for the same periods.
 
Provision for Credit Losses
We recorded
 
a provision for credit losses of $0.9 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to $2.0 million for
 
the fourth quarter of
2023 and $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
The decrease in the provision compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 was
primarily attributable to a lower level of reserves required for new loans, favorable
 
loan grade migration, and lower loss rates.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease was driven by lower new
 
loan growth in the first quarter of 2024.
 
We discuss the
allowance for credit losses further below.
 
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $18.1 million compared
 
to $17.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and
$17.8 million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
The $0.9 million increase over the fourth quarter of 2023 was due to a $0.5 million
increase in mortgage banking revenues and a $0.4 million increase in wealth management
 
fees.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023,
the $0.3 million increase was primarily attributable to higher wealth management
 
fees of $0.7 million partially offset by lower other
income of $0.3 million.
 
For both prior period comparisons, the increase in mortgage banking revenues
 
reflected a higher volume of
rate locks and third-party loan sales.
 
A combination of higher trust fees, retail brokerage fees, and insurance commissions
 
drove the
increase in wealth management fees over the fourth quarter of 2023.
 
Higher retail brokerage fees of $0.4 million and trust fees of $0.2
million drove the increase over the first quarter of 2023.
 
The decrease in other income was primarily due to lower loan servicing
income and miscellaneous income.
 
Noninterest income represented 32.06% of operating revenues (net interest
 
income plus noninterest income) for the first quarter of
2024 compared to 30.46% for the fourth quarter of 2023 and 30.53% for
 
the first quarter of 2023.

Deposit Fees
.
 
Deposit fees for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $5.2 million, comparable to the fourth
 
quarter of 2023 and the first
quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, a $0.1 million increase in commercial account
 
analysis fees was offset by a
$0.1 million decrease in overdraft fees.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, a $0.1 million increase in overdraft fees was offset
 
by a
$0.1 million decrease in account maintenance fees.
Bank Card Fees
.
 
Bank card fees for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $3.6 million, a $0.1 million decrease
 
from both the fourth quarter
of 2023 and first quarter of 2023 and reflected lower debit card usage related to
 
a decline in consumer spending.

Wealth
 
Management Fees
.
 
Wealth management fees,
 
which include both trust fees (i.e., managed accounts and trusts/estates), retail
brokerage fees (i.e., investment, insurance products, and retirement accounts),
 
and insurance commission revenues,
 
totaled $4.7
million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $0.4 million, or 9.5%, over the fourth
 
quarter of 2023 and an increase of $0.8
million, or 19.2%, over the first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, the increase reflected a combination of
higher trust fees and retail brokerage fees due to growth in assets under management,
 
and higher insurance commission revenues.
 
The
increase over the first quarter of 2023 was primarily attributable to higher retail
 
brokerage fees reflective of increased assets under
management, and to a lesser extent higher trust fees and insurance commission
 
revenues.
 
At March 31, 2024, total assets under
management were approximately $2.686 billion compared
 
to $2.588 billion at December 31, 2023 and $2.330 billion at March 31,
2023.
 
Compared to December 31, 2023, the increase was primarily attributable to growth in trust assets and
 
the growth over March
31, 2023 was primarily in retail brokerage assets reflecting increases in investments
 
in fixed income and annuity products, and higher
account values/returns reflective of the improved market returns.
 
Mortgage Banking Revenues
.
 
Mortgage banking revenues totaled $2.9 million for the first quarter of
 
2024, an increase of $0.5
million, or 23.7%, over the fourth quarter of 2023 and comparable to
 
the first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of
2023, the increase reflected a higher level of rate locks and third-party
 
loan sales.
 
We provide a detailed
 
overview of our mortgage
banking operation, including a detailed break-down of mortgage banking
 
revenues, mortgage servicing activity,
 
and warehouse
funding within Note 4 - Mortgage Banking Activities in the Notes to Consolidated
 
Financial Statements.
 
Other
.
 
Other income totaled $1.7 million for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $0.1
 
million, or 8.5%, from the fourth quarter of
2023
 
and a decrease of $0.3
 
million, or 16.4%, from the first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease was
primarily attributable to lower loan servicing income (due to sale of mortgage
 
servicing rights) and miscellaneous income.
 
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $40.2 million compared
 
to $40.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and
$37.7 million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
The $0.2 million increase over the fourth quarter of 2023 reflected a $0.6 million
 
increase
in compensation expense that was partially offset by decreases in
 
occupancy expense of $0.1 million and other expense of $0.3
million.
 
The increase in compensation expense was primarily attributable to higher payroll taxes (annual
 
re-set) and 401k plan
matching expense.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the $2.5 million increase reflected higher other expense
 
as we realized a
$1.8 million gain from the sale of other real estate (banking office)
 
in the first quarter of 2023.
 
Further, compensation expense was
$0.9 million higher primarily due to a lower level of realized loan cost (credit offset
 
to salary expense) due to decreased new loan
production.
 
The table below reflects the major components of noninterest expense.

Significant components of noninterest expense are discussed in
 
more detail below.
Compensation
.
 
Compensation expense totaled $24.4 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase
 
of $0.6 million, or 2.5%, over
the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of $0.9 million, or 3.8%, over
 
the first quarter of 2023. Compared to the fourth quarter of
2023, the increase reflected an increase in salary expense of $0.3
 
million and associate benefit expense of $0.3
 
million. The increase in
salary expense was primarily attributable to an increase in payroll tax
 
expense which reflected the annual re-set of this tax as well as
payroll taxes related to a high level of cash/stock incentives paid in the
 
first quarter.
 
The increase in associate benefit expense reflected
increases in stock compensation expense (higher expected pay-out
 
for incentive plan) and other associate benefit expense (annual
sales/service awards event). Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the
 
increase reflected an increase in salary expense of $1.1
 
million
partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in associate benefit expense.
 
The increase in salary expense was primarily due to a lower
level of realized loan cost (credit offset to salary expense) due to decreased
 
new loan production and to a lesser extent base salaries
(annual merit) that was partially offset by lower commission expense
 
at CCHL. Lower stock compensation expense drove the
decrease in associate benefit expense and reflected a higher pay-out for the
 
prior year long-term incentive plan.
 
Occupancy.
 
Occupancy expense (including premises and equipment) totaled $7.0
 
million for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of
$0.1
 
million, or 1.5% from the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of $0.2 million, or 3.4%, over
 
the first quarter of 2023. The
decrease from the fourth quarter of 2023 was due to lower building
 
maintenance, and the increase over the first quarter of 2023
reflected higher FF&E depreciation and maintenance agreement
 
expense partially attributable to new offices opened in 2023.
Other
.
 
Other noninterest expense totaled $8.8 million for the first quarter of
 
2024, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 2.9%, from the fourth
quarter of 2023 and an increase of $1.4 million, or 18.7%, from the first quarter
 
of 2023. The decrease from the fourth quarter was
primarily due to lower pension-other expense (non-service component
 
)
 
of $0.4 million and professional fees of $0.4 million that was
partially offset by higher processing fees of $0.3 million and insurance
 
-other of $0.2 million. The increase over the first quarter of
2023 was primarily due to a $1.8 million increase in other real estate expense
 
as we realized a $1.8 million gain from the sale of a
banking office in the first quarter of 2023. A $0.4 million decrease in
 
pension-other expense was partially offsetting.
 
Our operating efficiency ratio (expressed as noninterest
 
expense as a percent of the sum of taxable-equivalent net interest income plus
noninterest income) was 71.06% for the first quarter of 2024 compared
 
to 70.82% for the fourth quarter of 2023 and 64.67% for the
first quarter of 2023. The decrease from the first quarter of 2023 was primarily
 
attributable to lower noninterest expense which
included a $1.8 million gain from the sale of a banking office, and
 
to a lesser extent lower net interest income.
Income Taxes
We realized income
 
tax expense of $3.5 million (effective rate of 23.0%) for the first quarter of
 
2024 compared to $2.9 million
(effective rate of 20.3%) for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $3.7
 
million (effective rate of 21.3%) for the first quarter of 2023.
 
The
increase in our effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2024
 
compared to both prior periods was primarily due to a lower level of tax
benefit accrued from an investment in a solar tax credit equity fund.
 
Absent discrete items or new tax credit investments, we expect
our annual effective tax rate to approximate 23% for 2024.
 
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Average earning
 
assets totaled $3.850 billion for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $25.6 million, or 0.7%, over
 
the fourth
quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $213.1 million, or 5.2%, from the first quarter
 
of 2023.
 
The variance for both prior period
comparisons was driven by change in deposit balances (see below –
 
Deposits).
 
Compared to both prior periods, the mix of earning
assets improved as overnight funds were utilized to fund loan growth.
Investment Securities
Average investments
 
decreased $10.0 million, or 1.0%, from the fourth quarter of 2023. Our
 
investment portfolio represented 24.8%
of our average earning assets for the first quarter of 2024 compared
 
to 25.2% for the fourth quarter of 2023.
 
For the remainder of
2024, we will continue to monitor our overall liquidity position and market conditions
 
to determine if cash flow from the investment
portfolio should be reinvested or allowed to run-off
 
into overnight funds.
 
The investment portfolio is a significant component of our operations and, as such,
 
it functions as a key element of liquidity and
asset/liability management.
 
Two types of classifications are approved
 
for investment securities which are Available
 
-for-Sale (“AFS”)
and Held-to-Maturity (“HTM”).
 
At March 31, 2024, $603.4 million, or 64.6%, of the investment portfolio
 
was classified as HTM
and $330.7 million, or 35.4% was classified as AFS. The average maturity
 
of our total portfolio at March 31, 2024 was 2.76 years
compared to 2.91 years at December 31, 2023.
 
The duration of our investment portfolio at March 31, 2024 and December 31,
 
2023
was 2.39 years and 2.91 years, respectively.
 
Additional information on unrealized gains/losses in the AFS and HTM portfolios
 
is
provided in Note 2 – Investment Securities.
41
We determine
 
the classification of a security at the time of acquisition based on how the purchase will affect
 
our asset/liability strategy
and future business plans and opportunities.
 
We consider multiple
 
factors in determining classification, including regulatory
 
capital
requirements, volatility in earnings or other comprehensive income,
 
and liquidity needs.
 
Securities in the AFS portfolio are recorded
at fair value with unrealized gains and losses associated with these securities recorded
 
net of tax, in the accumulated other
comprehensive income component of shareowners’ equity.
 
HTM securities are acquired or owned with the intent of holding them
 
to
maturity.
 
HTM investments are measured at amortized cost.
 
We do not
 
trade, nor do we presently intend to begin trading investment
securities for the purpose of recognizing gains and therefore we do not maintain
 
a trading portfolio.
At March 31, 2024, there were 876 positions (combined AFS and HTM) with unrealized
 
losses totaling $64.8 million. 85 of these
positions are U.S. Treasuries and carry the full faith
 
and credit of the U.S. Government.
 
690 were U.S. government agency securities
issued by U.S. government sponsored entities. The remaining 101 positions
 
(municipal securities and corporate bonds) have a credit
component. At March 31, 2024, corporate debt securities had an
 
allowance for credit losses of $43,000 and municipal securities had
an allowance of $39,000.
 
At March 31, 2024, all collateralized mortgage obligation securities, mortgage
 
-backed securities, Small
Business Administration securities,
 
U.S. Agency, and
 
U.S. Treasury bonds held were AAA rated.
 
Loans HFI
Average loans
 
HFI increased $17.4 million, or 0.6%, over the fourth quarter of 2023 and $146.2 million,
 
or 5.7%, over the first quarter
of 2023.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the increase was primarily due to an increase in
 
residential loans partially offset by a decline
in consumer loans (primarily auto).
 
Period end loans decreased $2.7 million, or 0.1%, from the fourth quarter of 2023 and increased
$74.0 million, or 2.8%, over the first quarter of 2023.
 
The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily due to lower
consumer (auto) loan portfolio balances partially offset by
 
growth in residential loans.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the
increase reflected growth in residential loans and to a lesser extent commercial real
 
estate loans partially offset by lower consumer
(auto) loan balances.
 
Without compromising our credit standards
 
,
 
changing our underwriting standards, or taking on inordinate interest rate risk,
 
we
continue to closely monitor our markets and make minor adjustments as necessary.
Credit Quality
Overall credit quality remained stable.
 
Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and other real estate) totaled $6.8 million at
 
March
31, 2024 compared to $6.2 million at December 31, 2023 and $4.6 million at March
 
31, 2023.
 
At March 31, 2024, nonperforming
assets as a percent of total assets equaled 0.16% compared to 0.15% at December 31, 2023
 
and 0.10% at March 31, 2023.
 
Nonaccrual
loans totaled $6.8 million at March 31, 2024, a $0.6 million increase over December
 
31, 2023 and a $2.2 million increase over March
31, 2023.
 
Further, classified loans totaled $22.3 million
 
at March 31, 2024, a $0.1 million increase over December 31, 2023 and a
$10.1 million increase over March 31, 2023.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the
 
loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount
expected to be collected on the loans.
 
The allowance for credit losses is adjusted by a credit loss provision which is reported in
earnings and reduced by the charge-off of loan amounts
 
(net of recoveries).
 
Loans are charged off against the allowance when
management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed.
 
Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts
previously charged-off and expected to be charged
 
-off.
 
Expected credit loss inherent in non-cancellable off-balance sheet credit
exposures is provided through the credit loss provision but recorded as a separate
 
liability included in other liabilities.
Management estimates the allowance balance using relevant available information,
 
from internal and external sources relating to past
events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
 
Historical loan default and loss experience provides the basis for
the estimation of expected credit losses.
 
Adjustments to historical loss information incorporate management’s
 
view of current
conditions and forecasts.
 
At March 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses for HFI loans totaled
 
$29.3 million compared to $29.9 million at December 31,
2023 and $26.8 million at March 31, 2023.
 
Activity within the allowance is provided in Note 3 – Loans Held for Investment and
Allowance for Credit Losses in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
The decrease in the allowance from December 31, 2023 was
primarily due to favorable loan grade migration, lower loss rates, and a combination
 
of lower loan balances and shift in mix within the
portfolio.
 
Compared to March 31, 2023, the increase was primarily driven by loan growth.
 
At March 31, 2024, the allowance
represented 1.07% of HFI loans compared to 1.10% at December 31, 2023, and 1.01%
 
at March 31, 2023.
 
 
At March 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments
 
totaled $3.1 million compared to $3.2
 
million at
December 31, 2023 and $2.8 million at March 31, 2023.
 
The allowance for unfunded commitments is recorded in other liabilities.
42
Deposits
Average total
 
deposits were $3.577 billion for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $28.0 million,
 
or 0.8%, over the fourth quarter
of 2023 and a decrease of $240.8 million, or 6.3%, from the first quarter
 
of 2023.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, the
increase reflected a higher average balance for public funds (municipal clients
 
- primarily NOW accounts) which typically peak late in
the fourth quarter.
 
Further, we realized growth in both our money market
 
and CD balances which reflected a combination of balances
migrating from noninterest bearing and savings accounts, in addition
 
to receiving new deposits from existing and new clients.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease was primarily attributable
 
to lower noninterest bearing and savings accounts,
partially offset by increases in money market and CD balances.
 
The decrease in noninterest bearing and savings accounts reflected
 
a
combination of consumer/business spend of pandemic related stimulus
 
funds and rate sensitive clients seeking higher yields, partially
offset by the aforementioned migration to higher rate deposit products
 
(money market and CD).
 
At March 31, 2024, total deposits were $3.654 billion, a decrease of $47.0
 
million, or 1.3%, from December 31, 2023 and $169.1
million, or 4.4% from March 31, 2023.
 
The decrease from December 31, 2023 was primarily attributable to lower public funds
(municipal clients - primarily NOW accounts) partially offset by
 
higher money market balances and to a lesser extent CD balances.
 
The decrease from March 31, 2023 was due to the same aforementioned factors
 
driving the average variance. Total
 
public funds
balances were $615.0 million at March 31, 2024, $709.8 million December
 
31, 2023, and $637.8 million at March 31, 2023.
Business deposit transaction accounts classified as repurchase agreements
 
averaged $25.7 million for the first quarter of 2024, a
decrease of $1.1 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of $16.4
 
million over the first quarter of 2023.
 
At March 31,
2024, repurchase agreement balances were $23.5 million compared
 
to $27.0 million at December 31, 2023 and $4.4 million at March
31, 2023.
 
We continue
 
to closely monitor our cost of deposits and deposit mix as we manage through the current rate
 
environment.
 
MARKET RISK AND INTEREST RATE
 
SENSITIVITY
Market Risk and Interest Rate Sensitivity
Overview.
 
Market risk arises from changes in interest rates, exchange rates,
 
commodity prices, and equity prices.
 
We have risk
management policies designed to monitor and limit exposure to market
 
risk and we do not participate in activities that give rise to
significant market risk involving exchange rates, commodity prices, or
 
equity prices.
 
In asset and liability management activities, our
policies are designed to minimize structural interest rate risk.
Interest Rate Risk Management.
 
Our net income is largely dependent on net interest income.
 
Net interest income is susceptible to
interest rate risk to the degree that interest-bearing liabilities mature
 
or reprice on a different basis than interest-earning assets.
 
When
interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more quickly
 
than interest-earning assets in a given period, a significant increase in
market rates of interest could adversely affect net interest
 
income.
 
Similarly, when interest-earning
 
assets mature or reprice more
quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, falling market interest rates could
 
result in a decrease in net interest income.
 
Net interest
income is also affected by changes in the portion of interest-earning
 
assets that are funded by interest-bearing liabilities rather than by
other sources of funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and shareowners’
 
equity.
We have established
 
what we believe to be a comprehensive interest rate risk management policy,
 
which is administered by
management’s Asset Liability Management
 
Committee (“ALCO”).
 
The policy establishes limits of risk, which are quantitative
measures of the percentage change in net interest income (a measure of net
 
interest income at risk) and the fair value of equity capital
(a measure of economic value of equity (“EVE”) at risk) resulting from a hypothetical change
 
in interest rates for maturities from one
day to 30 years.
 
We measure the potential
 
adverse impacts that changing interest rates may have on our short-term
 
earnings, long-
term value, and liquidity by employing simulation analysis through the use of
 
computer modeling.
 
The simulation model captures
optionality factors such as call features and interest rate caps and floors imbedded
 
in investment and loan portfolio contracts.
 
As with
any method of gauging interest rate risk, there are certain shortcomings
 
inherent in the interest rate modeling methodology used by
us.
 
When interest rates change, actual movements in different categories
 
of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, loan
prepayments, and withdrawals of time and other deposits, may deviate significantly
 
from assumptions used in the model.
 
Finally, the
methodology does not measure or reflect the impact that higher rates may have
 
on adjustable-rate loan clients’ ability to service their
debts, or the impact of rate changes on demand for loan and deposit products.

The statement of financial condition is subject to testing for interest rate shock
 
possibilities to indicate the inherent interest rate risk.
 
We apply instantaneous,
 
parallel rate shocks to the base case in 100 basis point (bp) increments ranging from down
 
400bp to up
400bps at least once per quarter, with the
 
analysis reported to ALCO, our Market Risk Oversight Committee (“MROC”),
 
our
Enterprise Risk Oversight Committee (“EROC”) and the Board of Directors.
 
We augment our interest rate
 
shock analysis with
alternative interest rate scenarios on a quarterly basis that may include ramps,
 
and a flattening or steepening of the yield curve (non-
parallel shift).
 
In addition, more frequent forecasts may be produced when interest rates are particularly
 
uncertain or when other
business conditions so dictate.
Our goal is to structure the statement of financial condition so that net interest earnings at risk over
 
12-month and 24-month periods
and the economic value of equity at risk do not exceed policy guidelines
 
at the various interest rate shock levels. We
 
attempt to
achieve this goal by balancing, within policy limits, the volume of floating-rate
 
liabilities with a similar volume of floating-rate assets,
by keeping the average maturity of fixed-rate asset and liability contracts
 
reasonably matched, by managing the mix of our core
deposits, and by adjusting our rates to market conditions on a continuing
 
basis.
 
 
Analysis.
 
Measures of net interest income at risk produced by simulation analysis are
 
indicators of an institution’s short-term
performance in alternative rate environments.
 
These measures are typically based upon a relatively brief period, and do not
necessarily indicate the long-term prospects or economic value of the institution.

The Net Interest Income (“NII”) at Risk position of an instantaneous,
 
parallel rate shock indicates that in the short-term (over the next
12 months), all rising rate environments will positively impact the net interest
 
margin of the Company,
 
while declining rate
environments
 
will have a negative impact on the net interest margin. Compared
 
to the fourth quarter of 2023, these metrics became
more favorable in the rising rate scenarios and less favorable in the falling
 
rate scenarios primarily attributable to the update of our
deposit beta assumptions which will vary depending on the rate shock.
 
The instantaneous,
 
parallel rate shock results over the next 12-
months
 
are slightly outside of policy in the rates down 400 bps scenario and outside
 
of policy over 24 months
 
in the rates down 300
bps and 400 bps scenarios primarily due to change in our deposit beta assumptions
 
discussed above.
 
The measures of equity value at risk indicate our ongoing economic value
 
by considering the effects of changes in interest rates on all
of our cash flows by discounting the cash flows to estimate the present value of
 
assets and liabilities. The difference between these
discounted values of the assets and liabilities is the economic value of equity,
 
which in theory approximates the fair value of our net
assets.

At March 31, 2024, the economic value of equity was favorable in
 
all rising rate environments and unfavorable in the falling rate
environments. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, EVE metrics were
 
slightly more favorable in the rising rate environment and
less favorable in falling rate environments.
 
EVE is currently in compliance with policy in all rate scenarios,
 
and the EVE ratio
exceeds 5.0% in each shock scenario.
As the interest rate environment and the dynamics of the economy continue to change,
 
additional simulations will be analyzed to
address not only the changing rate environment, but also the change
 
in mix of our financial assets and liabilities, measured over
multiple years, to help assess the risk to the Company.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
 
RESOURCES
Liquidity
In general terms, liquidity is a measurement of our ability to meet our
 
cash needs.
 
Our objective in managing our liquidity is to
maintain our ability to meet loan commitments, purchase securities or repay deposits and
 
other liabilities in accordance with their
terms, without an adverse impact on our current or future earnings.
 
Our liquidity strategy is guided by policies that are formulated and
monitored by our ALCO and senior management, which take into account
 
the marketability of assets, the sources and stability of
funding and the level of unfunded commitments.
 
We regularly evaluate
 
all of our various funding sources with an emphasis on
accessibility, stability,
 
reliability and cost-effectiveness.
 
Our principal source of funding has been our client deposits, supplemented
by our short-term and long-term borrowings, primarily from securities sold under
 
repurchase agreements, federal funds purchased and
FHLB borrowings.
 
We believe that the cash
 
generated from operations, our borrowing capacity and our access to capital resources
 
are
sufficient to meet our future operating capital and funding requirements.
 
At March 31, 2024, we had the ability to generate approximately $1.542 billion
 
(excludes overnight funds position of $231 million) in
additional liquidity through various sources including various federal funds
 
purchased lines, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, the
Federal Reserve Discount Window,
 
and brokered deposits.
 
We recognize
 
the importance of maintaining liquidity and have developed
a Contingent Liquidity Plan, which addresses various liquidity stress levels and
 
our response and action based on the level of severity.
 
We periodically
 
test our credit facilities for access to the funds, but also understand that as the severity
 
of the liquidity level increases
that certain credit facilities may no longer be available.
 
We conduct
 
a liquidity stress test on a quarterly basis based on events that
could potentially occur at the Bank and report results to our ALCO, MROC
 
,
 
EROC, and Board of Directors.
 
At March 31, 2024, we
believe the liquidity available to us was sufficient to meet our on-going
 
needs and execute our business strategy.
 
 
We also view our
 
investment portfolio as a liquidity source and have the option to pledge securities in our
 
portfolio as collateral for
borrowings or deposits, and/or to sell selected securities.
 
Additional information on our investment portfolio is provided within
 
Note
2 – Investment Securities.
The Bank maintained an average net overnight funds (deposits with banks plus
 
FED funds sold less FED funds purchased) sold
position of $140.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $99.8 million
 
in the fourth quarter of 2023 and $361.0 million in
the first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, the increase was driven by average deposit
 
growth and investment
portfolio run-off, partially offset by average
 
loan growth.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease was attributable to lower
average deposit balances and growth in our loan portfolio, partially offset
 
by investment portfolio run-off.
 
We expect our
 
capital expenditures will be approximately $12.0 million over the next 12 months,
 
which will primarily consist of
construction of new offices, office remodeling,
 
office equipment/furniture, and technology purchases.
 
Management expects that these
capital expenditures will be funded with existing resources without impairing
 
our ability to meet our on-going obligations.
Borrowings
Average short
 
-term borrowings totaled $29.5 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to $43.8
 
million for the fourth quarter of
2023 and $47.1 million for the first quarter of 2023.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the decrease was attributable to a lower balance
maintained on CCHL’s
 
warehouse line.
 
Additional detail on these warehouse borrowings is provided in Note 4 – Mortgage Banking
Activities in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We have issued two
 
junior subordinated deferrable interest notes to our wholly owned
 
Delaware statutory trusts.
 
The first note for
$30.9 million was issued to CCBG Capital Trust I in
 
November 2004, of which $10 million was retired in April 2016.
 
The second
note for $32.0 million was issued to CCBG Capital Trust II
 
in May 2005.
 
The interest payment for the CCBG Capital Trust I
borrowing is due quarterly and adjusts quarterly to a variable rate of three-month
 
CME Term SOFR (secured overnight
 
financing rate)
plus a margin of 1.90%.
 
This note matures on December 31, 2034.
 
The interest payment for the CCBG Capital Trust II borrowing
 
is
due quarterly and adjusts quarterly to a variable interest rate based on three-month
 
CME Term SOFR plus a margin
 
of 1.80%.
 
This
note matures on June 15, 2035.
 
The proceeds from these borrowings were used to partially fund acquisitions.
 
Under the terms of each
junior subordinated deferrable interest note, in the event of default or
 
if we elect to defer interest on the note, we may not, with certain
exceptions, declare or pay dividends or make distributions on our capital
 
stock or purchase or acquire any of our capital stock.
 
During the second quarter of 2020, we entered into a derivative cash
 
flow hedge of our interest rate risk related to our subordinated
debt.
 
The notional amount of the derivative is $30 million ($10 million of the CCBG Capital Trust
 
I borrowing and $20 million of the
CCBG Capital Trust II borrowing).
 
The interest rate swap agreement requires CCBG to pay fixed and receive variable (three-month
CME Term SOFR plus spread)
 
and has an average all-in fixed rate of 2.50% for 10 years.
 
Additional detail on the interest rate swap
agreement is provided in Note 5 – Derivatives in the Consolidated Financial
 
Statements.
Capital
Our capital ratios are presented in the Selected Quarterly Financial Data
 
table on page 35.
 
At March 31, 2024, our regulatory capital
ratios exceeded the threshold to be designated as “well-capitalized”
 
under the Basel III capital standards.
Shareowners’ equity was $448.3 million at March 31, 2024 compared to
 
$440.6 million at December 31, 2023 and $403.3 million at
March 31, 2023.
 
For the first three months of 2024, shareowners’ equity was positively impacted by net
 
income attributable to
shareowners of $12.6 million, net adjustments totaling $0.5 million
 
related to transactions under our stock compensation plans, stock
compensation accretion of $0.4 million, and a $0.3 million increase in the fair value
 
of the interest rate swap related to subordinated
debt.
 
Shareowners’ equity was reduced by a common stock dividend of $3.6 million
 
($0.21 per share), the repurchase of stock of $2.3
million (82,540 shares), and a $0.2 million increase in the net unrealized
 
loss on available for sale securities.
At March 31, 2024, our total risk-based capital ratio was 16.84% compared
 
to 16.57% at December 31, 2023 and 15.29% at March 31,
2023.
 
Our common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 13.82%, 13.52%, and 12.40%, respectively,
 
on these dates.
 
Our leverage ratio was
10.45%, 10.30%, and 9.09%, respectively,
 
on these dates.
 
At March 31, 2024, all our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds
to be designated as “well-capitalized” under the Basel III capital standards.
 
Further, our tangible common equity
 
ratio (non-GAAP
financial measure) was 8.53% at March 31, 2024 compared to 8.26% and 7.20%
 
at December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023,
respectively.
 
If our unrealized held-to-maturity securities losses of $21.6 million (after-tax)
 
were recognized in accumulated other
comprehensive loss, our adjusted tangible capital ratio would be 8.01%.
Our tangible capital ratio is also impacted by the recording of our unfunded pension
 
liability through other comprehensive income in
accordance with ASC Topic
 
715.
 
At March 31, 2024, the net pension liability reflected in other comprehensive loss was
 
$0.4 million
compared to $0.4 million at December 31, 2023 and $4.5 million at March
 
31, 2023.
 
This liability is re-measured annually on
December 31
st
 
based on an actuarial calculation of our pension liability.
 
Significant assumptions used in calculating the liability
include the weighted average discount rate used to measure the present
 
value of the pension liability, the
 
weighted average expected
long-term rate of return on pension plan assets, and the assumed rate of annual compensation
 
increases, all of which will vary when
re-measured.
 
The discount rate assumption used to calculate the pension liability is subject to long
 
-term corporate bond rates at
December 31
st
.
 
These assumptions and sensitivities are discussed in the section entitled “Critical Accounting
 
Policies and Estimates”
in Part II, Item7. Management’s Discussion
 
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of
 
our 2023 Form 10-K/A.
 
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We are a party
 
to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks in the normal
 
course of business to meet the financing needs of our
clients.
 
At March 31, 2024, we had $753.5 million in commitments to extend credit
 
and $6.3 million in standby letters of credit.
 
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client so 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.
 
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee
 
the performance
of a client to a third party.
 
We use the same credit
 
policies in establishing commitments and issuing letters of credit as we do for on-
balance sheet instruments.
46
If commitments arising from these financial instruments continue to require
 
funding at historical levels, management does not
anticipate that such funding will adversely impact our ability to meet our on-going
 
obligations.
 
In the event these commitments
require funding in excess of historical levels, management believes current
 
liquidity, advances available from the
 
FHLB and the
Federal Reserve, and investment security maturities provide a sufficient
 
source of funds to meet these commitments.
Certain agreements provide that the commitments are unconditionally
 
cancellable by the bank and for those agreements no allowance
for credit losses has been recorded.
 
We have recorded
 
an allowance for credit losses on loan commitments that are not
unconditionally cancellable by the bank, which is included in other
 
liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition and
totaled $3.1 million at March 31, 2024.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated
 
Financial Statements included in our 2023 Form 10-
K/A.
 
The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements
 
in accordance with GAAP and reporting practices applicable to the
banking industry requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect
 
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses, and to disclose contingent assets and liabilities.
 
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
We have identified
 
accounting for (i) the allowance for credit losses, (ii) goodwill,
 
(iii) pension assumptions, and (iv) income taxes as
our most critical accounting policies and estimates in that they are important
 
to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and
they require our subjective and complex judgment as a result of the need to make estimates about
 
the effects of matters that are
inherently uncertain.
 
These accounting policies, including the nature of the estimates and types of assumptions
 
used, are described
throughout this Item 2, Management’s
 
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and
 
Part II, Item 7,
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
 
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included
 
in our 2023 Form 10-K/A.

DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
See “Market Risk and Interest Rate Sensitivity” in Management’s
 
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

Management has determined that no additional disclosures are
necessary to assess changes in information about market risk that have occurred
 
since December 31, 2023.
Item 4.
 
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
At March 31, 2024, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our management,
 
including our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, evaluated
 
the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
 
in Rule 13a-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
 
Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
 
Financial Officer concluded
that, as of the end of the period covered by this report our disclosure controls and procedures
 
were ineffective due to the identification
of the material weakness discussed below.
Previously Reported Material Weakness
 
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A material weakness is a deficiency,
 
or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such
 
that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s
 
annual interim financial statements will not be prevented or
detected on a timely basis.
 
As reported in our 2023 Form 10-K/A, we did not maintain effective
 
internal control over financial
reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange
 
Act of 1934) as of December 31, 2023 as a result of
a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting for the review of
 
significant inter-company mortgage loan sales
and servicing transactions was not designed effectively.
 
Specifically, management’s
 
review control over the completeness and
accuracy of elimination entries in the consolidation process was not designed
 
effectively, as the review
 
was not sufficiently precise to
identify all the necessary elimination entries between CCB and its subsidiary,
 
CCHL. The Company determined inter-company
transactions related to the sale of residential mortgage loans were not properly eliminated
 
and net loan fees were not properly
recorded. Further, financial information obtained
 
from CCHL for certain construction/permanent loan activity was not in sufficient
detail to appropriately classify this activity within the Statement of Cash Flows.
 
Specifically, management’s
 
review control over the
completeness, accuracy and review of financial information provided
 
from CCHL related to the Statement of Cash Flows was not
designed effectively as the review was not sufficiently
 
precise to identify all errors in financial reporting. Refer to our 2023 Form 10-
K/A for a description of our material weakness.
Remediation Plan
Since identifying the material weakness described above, management,
 
with oversight from the Audit Committee and input from the
Board of Directors, has devoted substantial resources to the ongoing
 
implementation of remediation efforts. These remediation
 
efforts,
summarized below are intended to address both the identified material weakness
 
and to enhance the Company’s overall
 
internal
control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.
 
Based on additional procedures and post-closing review,
management concluded that the consolidated financial statements
 
included in this report present fairly,
 
in all material respects, our
financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented,
 
in conformity with GAAP.
The internal control and procedural enhancements and remedial actions that
 
have been implemented include:
1.
Enhance the precision level review of activity within existing accounts that are
 
subject to elimination during consolidation, to
ensure appropriate elimination;
 
2.
Enhance review procedures to identify new inter-company
 
accounts and activities subject to elimination during
consolidation;
 
3.
Increase the granularity of general ledger mapping for inter-company
 
accounts subject to elimination during consolidation;
 
4.
Enhance financial close checklist and pre-close meeting agenda to assist the reviewer
 
identifying and assessing inter-
company activities that are subject to elimination in a timely manner; and
5.
Enhance the detail of review procedures of financial information obtained
 
from a subsidiary
 
to identify, assess and validate
appropriate classification when preparing the consolidated financial statements,
 
including when reviewing items in the
operating, investing or financing activity sections within the Statement of
 
Cash Flows.
To remediate
 
the material weakness, the Company implemented the internal control and procedural enhancements
 
noted above in
items 1-4 during the fourth quarter of 2023 and implemented the enhancement
 
noted above in item 5 during the first quarter of 2024.
 
The material weakness cannot be considered remediated until the applicable
 
controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and
management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are designed
 
and operating effectively.
 
Accordingly, management
 
will
continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our
 
internal control over financial reporting and the disclosure controls and
procedures.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
49
Change in Internal Control
Except as identified above with respect to remediation of the material weakness,
 
there have been no significant changes in our internal
control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal
 
quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1.
 
Legal Proceedings
We are party
 
to lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business.
 
In management's opinion, there is no known pending litigation,
