NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except share and per share data)

(1) Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of First Interstate BancSystem, Inc., First Interstate Bank (“FIB”), and its other subsidiaries (together, the “Company”) contain all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the results of operations and changes in stockholders’ equity for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , and cash flows for each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The balance sheet information at December 31, 2018 is derived from audited consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications, none of which were material, have been made to conform prior year financial statements to the June 30, 2019 presentation. These reclassifications did not change previously reported net income or stockholders’ equity.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 .

Leases

We have leased branches and office space and have entered into various other agreements in conducting our business. At inception, we determine whether an agreement represents a lease and at commencement we evaluate each lease agreement to determine whether the lease is an operating or financing lease. Some of our lease agreements have contained renewal options, tenant improvement allowances, rent holidays and rent escalation clauses. As discussed in “Note 16 – Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance” included in this report, we adopted ASU 2016-02, as of January 1, 2019.

Pursuant to ASU 2016-02, all of our long-term operating leases outstanding on December 31, 2018 continued to be classified as operating leases. Our capital lease outstanding at December 31, 2018 is classified as a financing lease. With the adoption of ASU 2016-02, we recorded an operating lease right-of-use asset, within the Premises and Equipment line item, and an operating lease liability, within the Other Liabilities line item, on our balance sheet. Right-of-use lease assets represent our right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and the lease obligation represents our commitment to make the lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use lease assets and obligations are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, we used an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The right-of-use lease asset includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and excludes any lease incentives. The lease term may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, subject to any changes in the lease or expectations regarding the terms. Variable lease costs such as property taxes are expensed as incurred. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.

Prior to our adoption of ASU 2016-02, when our lease agreements contained renewal options, tenant improvement allowances, rent holidays and rent escalation clauses, we recorded a deferred rent asset or liability equal to the difference between the rent expense and the future minimum lease payments due. The lease expense related to operating leases was recognized on a straight-line basis in the statements of operations over the term of each lease. In cases where the lessor granted us leasehold improvement allowances that reduced our lease expense, we capitalized the improvements as incurred and recognized deferred rent, which was amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the expected useful life of the improvements.

(2) Acquisitions

Community 1 st Bank. On October 11, 2018 , the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding stock of Community 1st Bank (“CMYF”), a community bank headquartered in Post Falls, Idaho with three banking offices in North Idaho. The acquisition was completed on April 8, 2019 , and conversion of the data processing systems occurred on June 7, 2019 .

Consideration for the acquisition was $ 18.8 million , consisting of the issuance of 0.463 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock valued at $ 40.64 per share, the closing price of the Company's Class A common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ stock market on the acquisition date. Holders of each share of CMYF common stock received 0.3784 shares of First Interstate Class A common stock for each share of CMYF common stock. Previously unvested CMYF restricted stock awards outstanding immediately prior to the close of the transaction vested and were considered issued and outstanding at acquisition close and included in consideration. All CMYF stock options outstanding, vested and were settled by CMYF prior to the close of the transaction.

The assets and liabilities of CMYF were provisionally recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date and will be finalized in the coming months. The excess value of the consideration paid over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as provisional goodwill. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in provisional goodwill of $ 2.5 million , which is not deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill resulting from the acquisition was allocated to the Company’s one operating segment, community banking, and consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of CMYF and the Company.

As of the date of the acquisition, the Company provisionally recorded net assets acquired of approximately $ 16.3 million consisting of approximately $ 128.0 million in assets, inclusive of $ 78.8 million of loans, of which $ 0.7 million were classified as credit impaired, and assumed approximately $ 111.7 million of liabilities, inclusive of $ 110.1 million of deposits. Due to the recent closing of the transaction, all amounts reported are provisional pending the review of valuations obtained from third parties.

Core deposit intangible assets of $ 3.0 million are being amortized using an accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the related deposits of 10 years.

Unaudited pro forma consolidated revenues and net income as if the CMYF acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2019, are not presented because the effect of this acquisition was not considered significant.

The assets and liabilities of IIBK were provisionally recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date and will be finalized in the coming months. The excess value of the consideration paid over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as provisional goodwill. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in provisional goodwill of $ 74.7 million , which is not deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill resulting from the acquisition was allocated to the Company’s one operating segment, community banking, and consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of IIBK and the Company.

The following table summarizes the consideration paid, fair values of the IIBK assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting goodwill. Due to the recent closing of the transaction, all amounts reported are provisional pending the review of valuations obtained from third parties.

ASC Topic 310-30 provides recognition, measurement and disclosure guidance for acquired loans that have evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination for which it is probable, at acquisition, the Company will be unable to collect all contractual amounts owed. For loans that meet the criteria stipulated in ASC Topic 310-30, the excess of all cash flows expected at acquisition over the initial fair value of the loans acquired ("accretable yield") is amortized to interest income over the expected remaining lives of the underlying loans using the effective interest method. The accretable yield will fluctuate due to changes in (i) estimated lives of underling credit-impaired loans, (ii) assumptions regarding future principal and interest amounts collected, and (iii) indices used to fair value variable rate loans.

The investment portfolio is evaluated quarterly for other-than-temporary declines in the market value of each individual investment security. The Company had 397 and 760 individual investment securities that were in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, related primarily to fluctuations in the current interest rates. As of June 30, 2019 , the Company had the intent and ability to hold these investment securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery. Furthermore, the Company does not have the intent to sell any of the available-for-sale securities in the above table and it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any securities before a recovery in cost. No impairment losses were recorded during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 or 2018 .

Maturities of investment securities at June 30, 2019 are shown below. Maturities of mortgage-backed securities have been adjusted to reflect shorter maturities based upon estimated prepayments of principal. All other investment securities maturities are shown at contractual maturity dates.

Acquired loans that met the criteria for non-accrual of interest prior to acquisition were considered performing upon acquisition. If interest on non-accrual loans had been accrued, such income would have been approximately $ 0.6 million and $ 0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and approximately $ 1.2 million and $ 1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively.

The Company considers impaired loans to include all originated loans, except consumer loans, that are risk rated as doubtful, or have been placed on non-accrual status or renegotiated in troubled debt restructurings, and all loans acquired with evidence of deterioration in credit quality and for which it was probable, at acquisition, that the Company would be unable to collect all contractual amounts owed.

The following table presents the average recorded investment in and income recognized on impaired loans for the periods indicated:

Three Months Ended June 30, — 2019 2018
Average Recorded Investment Income Recognized Average Recorded Investment Income Recognized
Real estate $ 33.9 $ — $ 56.4 $ 0.1

Agricultural 4.9 1.4
Total $ 60.9 $ 0.1 $ 82.5 $ 0.2

Interest payments received on non-accrual impaired loans are applied to principal. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. If interest on impaired loans had been accrued, interest income on impaired loans would have been approximately $ 0.6 million and $ 0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and approximately $ 1.2 million and $ 1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively.

Collateralized impaired loans are generally recorded at the fair value of the underlying collateral using discounted cash flows, independent appraisals, and management estimates based upon current market conditions. For loans measured under the present value of cash flows method, the change in present value attributable to the passage of time, if applicable, is recognized in the provision for loan losses and thus no interest income is recognized.

Modifications of performing loans are made in the ordinary course of business and are completed on a case-by-case basis as negotiated with the borrower. Loan modifications typically include interest rate changes, interest only periods of less than twelve months, short-term payment deferrals and extension of amortization periods to provide payment relief. A loan modification is considered a troubled debt restructuring if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company, for economic or legal reasons, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Certain troubled debt restructurings are on non-accrual status at the time of restructuring and may be returned to accrual status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance in accordance with the restructuring agreement for a period of at least six months and management is reasonably assured of future performance. If the troubled debt restructuring meets these performance criteria and the interest rate granted at the modification is equal to or greater than the rate that the Company was willing to accept at the time of the restructuring for a new loan with comparable risk, then the loan will return to performing status and the accrual of interest will resume, although they continue to be individually evaluated for impairment and disclosed as impaired loans.

The Company had loans renegotiated in troubled debt restructurings of $ 21.9 million as of June 30, 2019 , of which $ 16.2 million were included in non-accrual loans and $ 5.7 million were on accrual status. The Company had loans renegotiated in troubled debt restructurings of $ 23.4 million as of December 31, 2018 , of which $ 17.8 million were included in non-accrual loans and $ 5.6 million were on accrual status.

For troubled debt restructurings that were on non-accrual status or otherwise deemed impaired before the modification, a specific reserve may already be recorded. In periods subsequent to modification, the Company continues to evaluate all troubled debt restructurings for possible impairment and recognizes impairment through the allowance. Additionally these loans continue to work their way through the credit cycle through charge-off, pay-off or foreclosure. Financial effects of modifications of troubled debt restructurings may include principal loan forgiveness or other charge-offs directly related to the restructuring. The Company had no charge-offs directly related to modifying troubled debt restructurings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018 .

The Company had no material troubled debt restructurings during the previous 12 months for which there was a payment default during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 . The Company considers a payment default to occur on troubled debt restructurings when the loan is 90 days or more past due or was placed on non-accrual status after the modification.

At June 30, 2019 , there were no material commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose existing loans have been renegotiated or are classified as non-accrual.

As part of the on-going and continuous monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks internally assigned risk classifications of loans. The Company adheres to a Uniform Classification System developed jointly by the various bank regulatory agencies to internally risk rate loans. The Uniform Classification System defines three broad categories of criticized assets, which the Company uses as credit quality indicators:

Other Assets Especially Mentioned — includes loans that exhibit weaknesses in financial condition, loan structure or documentation, which if not promptly corrected, may lead to the development of abnormal risk elements.

Substandard — includes loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower. Although the primary source of repayment for a substandard loan is not currently sufficient, collateral or other sources of repayment are sufficient to satisfy the debt. Continuance of a substandard loan is not warranted unless positive steps are taken to improve the worthiness of the credit.

Doubtful — includes loans that exhibit pronounced weaknesses to a point where collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, is highly questionable and improbable. Doubtful loans are required to be placed on non-accrual status and are assigned specific loss exposure.

Company management undertakes the same process for assigning risk ratings to acquired loans as it does for originated loans. Acquired loans rated as substandard or lower, or that were on non-accrual status or designated as troubled debt restructurings at the time of acquisition are deemed to be acquired credit impaired loans accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30, regardless of whether they are classified as performing or non-performing loans.

The Company performs a quarterly assessment of the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses in accordance with GAAP. The methodology used to assess the adequacy is consistently applied to the Company’s loan portfolio and consists of three elements: (1) specific valuation allowances based on probable losses on impaired loans; (2) historical valuation allowances based on loan loss experience for similar loans with similar characteristics and trends; and (3) general valuation allowances determined based on changes in the nature of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, general economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to the Company.

FIRST INTERSTATE BANCSYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except share and per share data)

Specific allowances are established for loans where management has determined that probability of a loss exists by analyzing the borrower’s ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies and any relevant qualitative or economic factors impacting the loan. Historical valuation allowances are determined by applying percentage loss factors to the credit exposures from outstanding loans. For commercial, agricultural, and real estate loans, loss factors are applied based on the internal risk classifications of these loans. For consumer loans, loss factors are applied on a portfolio basis. For commercial, agriculture, and real estate loans, loss factor percentages are based on a migration analysis of our historical loss experience, designed to account for credit deterioration. For consumer loans, the loss factor percentages are based on a three-year loss history for the 2018 period and on a one-year loss history for the comparable periods. The loan loss rates for 2018 and 2019 incorporate the available loss history data from Bank of the Cascades prior to the merger date to represent a consolidated institutional loss rate for both originated and acquired portfolios. General valuation allowances are determined by evaluating, on a quarterly basis, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, current economic and regulatory conditions and the estimated impact of these factors on historical loss rates.

An allowance for loan losses is established for loans acquired that are deemed credit impaired and for which the Company projects a decrease in the expected cash flows in periods subsequent to the acquisition of such loans. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company’s allowance for loan losses included $ 0.8 million and $ 0.8 million , respectively, related to loans acquired credit impaired.

(7) Other Real Estate Owned

Information with respect to the Company’s other real estate owned follows:

Three Months Ended June 30, — 2019 2018 Six Months Ended June 30, — 2019 2018

The carrying values of foreclosed residential real estate properties included in other real estate owned were $ 3.5 million and $ 2.0 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The Company had $ 0.9 million of consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that were in the process of foreclosure as of June 30, 2019 and $ 0.4 million as of December 31, 2018 .

(8) Derivatives and Hedging Activities

The Company enters into certain interest rate swap contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative contracts relate to transactions in which the Company enters into an interest rate swap with a customer while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with a third party financial institution. Because the Company acts as an intermediary for the customer, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts for the most part offset each other and do not significantly impact the Company’s results of operations.

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into interest rate lock commitments to finance residential mortgage loans that are not designated as accounting hedges. These commitments, which contain fixed expiration dates, offer the borrower an interest rate guarantee, provided the loan meets underwriting guidelines and closes within the timeframe established by the Company. Interest rate risk arises on these commitments and subsequently closed loans if interest rates change between the time of the interest rate lock and the delivery of the loan to the investor. Loan commitments related to residential mortgage loans intended to be sold are considered derivatives and are marked to market through earnings. In addition to the effects of the change in market interest rate, the fair value measurement of the derivative also contemplates the expected cash flows to be received from the counterparty from the future sale of the loan.

The Company sells residential mortgage loans on either a best efforts or mandatory delivery basis. The Company mitigates the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing interest rate lock commitments by entering into forward loan sales contracts. During the interest rate lock commitment period, these forward loan sales contracts are marked to market through earnings and are not designated as accounting hedges. Exclusive of the fair value component associated with the projected cash flows from the loan delivery to the investor, the changes in fair value related to movements in market rates of the interest rate lock commitments and the forward loan sales contracts generally move in opposite directions, and the net impact of changes in these valuations on net income during the loan commitment period is generally inconsequential. When the loan is funded to the borrower, the interest rate lock commitment derivative expires and the Company records a loan held for sale. The forward loan sales contract acts as a hedge against the variability in cash to be received from the loan sale. The changes in measurement of the estimated fair values of the interest rate lock commitments and forward loan sales contracts are included in mortgage banking revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

The notional amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s derivatives are presented in the following table. Fair value estimates are obtained from third parties and are based on pricing models.

On April 8, 2019 , the Company issued 3,871,422 and 463,134 shares of its Class A common stock with an aggregate value of $ 157.3 million and $ 18.8 million as consideration for the acquisitions of IIBK and CMYF, respectively. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , the Company issued 21,942 shares of its Class A common stock to directors for their annual service on the Company's board of directors. The aggregate value of the shares issued to directors of $ 0.8 million is included in stock-based compensation expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity.

On June 11, 2019, the company’s board of directors adopted a new stock repurchase program to replace the program that had been in place since 2015 and which had only 24,123 shares of Class A common stock remaining to be purchased thereunder. Under the new stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase up to 2.5 million of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock. To date the Company has no t repurchased any shares under the current authorization.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , the Company did not repurchase any shares of its Class A common stock other than stock repurchases which were redemptions of vested restricted shares tendered in lieu of cash for payment of income tax withholding amounts by participants in the Company’s equity compensation plans.

(10) Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period presented, excluding unvested restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares determined for the basic earnings per share computation plus the dilutive effects of stock-based compensation using the treasury stock method.

(11) Regulatory Capital

On July 2, 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank issued a final rule implementing a revised regulatory capital framework for U.S. banks in accordance with the Basel III international accord and satisfying related mandates under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The revised regulatory capital framework (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) substantially revised the risk-based capital requirements applicable to bank holding companies and depository institutions by defining the components of capital and addressing other issues affecting the numerator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios, addressing risk weights and other issues affecting the denominator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios and replacing the existing risk-weighting approach with a more risk-sensitive approach. The Basel III Capital Rules became effective for the Company on January 1, 2015, subject to a phase-in period for certain provisions. The capital conservation buffer required under Basel III began to phase in starting January 1, 2016 and became fully implemented on January 1, 2019.

Residential mortgage loans sold to investors in the secondary market are sold with varying recourse provisions. Essentially all of the loan sales agreements require the repurchase of a mortgage loan by the seller in situations such as breach of representation, warranty, or covenant; untimely document delivery; false or misleading statements; failure to obtain certain certificates or insurance; or unmarketability. Certain loan sales agreements contain repurchase requirements based on payment-related defects that are defined in terms of the number of days or months since the purchase, the sequence number of the payment, and/or the number of days of payment delinquency. Based on the specific terms stated in the agreements, the Company had $ 1.0 million of sold residential mortgage loans with recourse provisions still in effect as of June 30, 2019 .

(13) Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. At June 30, 2019 , commitments to extend credit to existing and new borrowers approximated $ 2,727.0 million , which included $ 749.1 million on unused credit card lines and $ 1,162.4 million with commitment maturities beyond one year.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. At June 30, 2019 , the Company had outstanding standby letters of credit of $ 56.8 million . The estimated fair value of the obligation undertaken by the Company in issuing the standby letters of credit is included in other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

(15) Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

• Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

• Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities

The methodologies used by the Company in determining the fair values of each class of financial instruments are based primarily on the use of independent, market-based data to reflect a value that would be reasonably expected in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, and therefore are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 .

Further details on the methods used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments above are discussed below:

Investment Debt Securities Available-for-Sale . The Company obtains fair value measurements for investment securities 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, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information,, and the investment’s terms and conditions, among other things. Vendors chosen by the Company are widely recognized vendors whose evaluations support the pricing functions of financial institutions, investment and mutual funds, and portfolio managers. If needed, a broker may be utilized to determine the reported fair value of investment securities.

Loans Held for Sale. Fair value measurements for loans held for sale are obtained from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include binding contracts or quotes or bids from third party investors as well as loan level pricing adjustments.

Interest Rate Swap Contracts. Fair values for derivative interest rate swap contracts are based upon the estimated amounts to settle the contracts considering current interest rates and are calculated using discounted cash flows that are observable or that can be corroborated by observable market data. The inputs used to determine fair value include the 3 month LIBOR forward curve to estimate variable rate cash inflows and the federal funds effective swap rate to estimate the discount rate. The estimated variable rate cash inflows are compared to the fixed rate outflows and such difference is discounted to a present value to estimate the fair value of the interest rate swaps. The change in the value of derivative assets attributable to basis risk, or the risk that offsetting investments in a hedging strategy will not experience price changes in entirely opposite directions from each other, was not significant in the reported periods. The Company also obtains and compares the reasonableness of the pricing from an independent third party.

(Dollars in millions, except share and per share data)

Interest Rate Lock Commitments. Fair value measurements for interest rate lock commitments are obtained from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include prices available from secondary market investors taking into consideration various characteristics of the loan, including the loan amount, interest rate, value of the servicing, and loan to value ratio, among other things. Observable data is then adjusted to reflect changes in interest rates, the Company’s estimated pull-through rate and estimated direct costs necessary to complete the commitment into a closed loan net of origination and processing fees collected from the borrower.

Forward Loan Sales Contracts. The fair value measurements for forward loan sales contracts are obtained from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that includes sales of similar loans.

Deferred Compensation Plan Assets and Liabilities. The fair values of deferred compensation plan assets are based primarily on the use of independent, market-based data to reflect a value that would be reasonably expected in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. These investments are in the same funds and purchased in the same amounts as the participants’ selected investments, which represent the underlying liabilities to plan participants. Deferred compensation plan liabilities are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of participants’ selected investments.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

As of June 30, 2019 Balance Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using — Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Additionally, from time to time, certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Adjustments to fair value generally result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets due to impairment. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis:

Impaired Loans. Collateralized impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from collateral. The impaired loans are reported at fair value through specific valuation allowance allocations. In addition, when it is determined that the fair value of an impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the carrying value of the loan is adjusted to fair value through a charge to the allowance for loan losses. Collateral values are estimated using independent appraisals and management estimates of current market conditions. As of June 30, 2019 , certain impaired loans with a carrying value of $ 38.9 million were reduced by specific valuation allowance allocations of $ 6.2 million and partial loan charge-offs of $ 6.5 million resulting in a reported fair value of $ 26.2 million . As of December 31, 2018 , certain impaired loans with a carrying value of $ 36.3 million were reduced by specific valuation allowance allocations of $ 6.8 million and partial loan charge-offs of $ 5.4 million resulting in a reported fair value of $ 24.1 million .

OREO. The fair values of OREO are estimated using independent appraisals and management estimates of current market conditions. Upon initial recognition, write-downs based on the foreclosed asset’s fair value at foreclosure are reported through charges to the allowance for loan losses. Periodically, the fair value of foreclosed assets is remeasured with any subsequent write-downs charged to OREO expense in the period in which they are identified. The Company had $ 0.4 million and zero write downs on OREO properties during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively.

Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of by Sale. Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The fair values of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are based upon observable market data and management estimates of current market conditions. As of June 30, 2019 , the Company had long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale with carrying values aggregating $ 6.0 million , which was reduced by write-downs of $ 1.0 million , resulting in a fair value of $ 5.0 million . As of December 31, 2018 , the Company had long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale with carrying values aggregating $ 5.4 million , reduced by write-downs of $ 0.5 million , resulting in a fair value of $ 4.9 million .

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair values:

Fair Value As of — June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Valuation Technique Unobservable Inputs Range (Weighted Average)
Impaired loans $ 26.2 $ 24.1 Appraisal Appraisal adjustment 0 % - 26 % ( 13 %)
Other real estate owned 2.1 0.6 Appraisal Appraisal adjustment 8 % - 96 % ( 39 %)
Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale 5.0 4.9 Appraisal Appraisal adjustment 0 % - 43 % ( 10 %)

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate fair value. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are discussed above. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of other financial instruments are discussed below. For financial instruments bearing a variable interest rate where no credit risk exists, it is presumed that recorded book values are reasonable estimates of fair value.

Financial Assets. Carrying values of cash, cash equivalents and accrued interest receivable approximate fair values due to the liquid and/or short-term nature of these instruments. Fair values for investment securities held-to-maturity are obtained from an independent pricing service, which considers observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the investment’s terms and conditions, among other things. Fair values of fixed rate loans and variable rate loans that reprice on an infrequent basis are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality using an exit price notion. Carrying values of variable rate loans that reprice frequently, and with no change in credit risk, approximate the fair values of these instruments.

Financial Liabilities. The fair values of demand deposits, savings accounts, securities sold under repurchase agreements and accrued interest payable are the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit are estimated using external market rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. The fair values of derivative liabilities are obtained from an independent pricing service, which considers observable data that may include the three-month LIBOR forward curve, the federal funds effective swap rate and cash flows, among other things. The carrying values of the interest bearing demand notes to the United States Treasury are deemed an approximation of fair values due to the frequent repayment and repricing at market rates. The fixed and floating rate subordinated debentures, floating rate subordinated term loan, notes payable to the FHLB, fixed rate subordinated term debt, and capital lease obligation are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates for advances with similar characteristics.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit. The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, is not significant.

The estimated fair values of financial instruments that are reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value, are as follows:

(16) Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance

ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right of use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date of the lease and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Accounting by lessors is largely unchanged. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11 to provide entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard. Under this new transition method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Additionally, in December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, “Leases (Topic 842) - Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors,” which provides for certain policy elections and changes lessor accounting for sales and similar taxes and certain lessor costs. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, ASU 2018-11 and ASU 2018-20 on January 1, 2019, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities totaling $ 54.6 million and $ 54.6 million , respectively, with an immaterial impact on its consolidated results of operations and liquidity. The Company elected to apply certain practical expedients provided under ASU 2016-02 whereby we did not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term for existing leases. We also did not apply the recognition requirements of ASU 2016-02 to any short-term leases (as defined by related accounting guidance). Lease and non-lease components are accounted for separately as the amounts are readily determinable under our lease contracts.

(Dollars in millions, except share and per share data)

ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The amendments in ASU 2016-13 require a financial asset or group of financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented on a company’s financial statements at the net amount expected to be collected based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. ASU 2016-13 requires a company’s income statement to reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 require that the allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination be measured at amortized cost basis with the initial allowance for credit losses added to the purchase price rather than being reported as a credit loss expense. ASU 2016-13 also requires that credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which other-than-temporary impairment was recognized before the effective date. Amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income as of the date of adoption that relate to improvement in cash flows expected to be collected will continue to be accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset. Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after the date of adoption will be recorded in earnings when received. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on our financial statements, which will be effective on January 1, 2020. We have formed a cross-functional working group comprised of individuals from various functional areas including credit, risk management, finance, and information technology, among others. We are currently working through our implementation plan which includes assessment and documentation of processes, internal controls and data sources; model development and documentation; and system configuration, among other things. We are in the process of implementing a third-party vendor solution. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 could result in an increase in the allowance for loan losses as a result of changing from an “incurred loss” model, which encompasses allowances for current known and inherent losses within the portfolio, to an “expected loss” model, which encompasses allowances for losses expected to be incurred over the life of the portfolio. The adoption will also necessitate that we establish an allowance for expected credit losses for certain debt securities and other financial assets. While we are currently unable to reasonably estimate the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13, we expect that the impact of adoption will be significantly influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of our loan and securities portfolios as well as the prevailing economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date.

ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.” The amendments in ASU 2017-08 shorten the amortization period for the premium on certain purchased callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The new guidance does not change the accounting for purchased callable debt securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. ASU No. 2017-08 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. As the Company amortized premiums on callable debt securities to the earliest call date, the amendments in ASU 2017-08 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2019, and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, results of operations, or liquidity.

ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12). The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. In addition, this ASU makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting, including to derivative instruments as well as allow a one-time election to reclassify fixed-rate, prepayable debt securities from a held-to-maturity classification to an available-for-sale classification. ASU 2017-12 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Guidance related to existing cash flow hedges and, if elected, fair value hedges is to be applied under a modified retrospective approach and guidance related to amended presentation and disclosures is to be applied under a prospective approach. Upon adoption of ASU 2017-12 on January 1, 2019, the guidance did not have an impact on the Company's derivatives and, thus, no adjustments were made related to derivatives. In conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2017-12, the Company made the transition election to reclassify $ 281.1 million in book value of securities, that qualified, from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale.

ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). The amendments in this Update removes, modifies, and adds to the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on the concepts in the Concepts Statement, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. Early adoption is permitted. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this Update and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard, we currently expect adoption to have an immaterial impact on our consolidated financial statements disclosures.

ASU 2018-14, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General: Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (ASU 2018-14). The amendments in this Update remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. Although narrow in scope, the amendments are considered an important part of the Board’s efforts to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements by applying concepts in the Concepts Statement. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, for public business entities. Early adoption is permitted. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard, we currently expect adoption to have an immaterial impact on our consolidated financial statements disclosures.

ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) - Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract.” In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other- Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). The amendments in this Update clarifies certain aspects of ASU 2015-05, “Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement,” which was issued in April 2015. ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the Update. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, for public business entities. Early adoption is permitted. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard, we currently expect adoption to have an immaterial impact on our consolidated financial statements disclosures.

ASU 2018-16, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes.” In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-16, Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes. The amendments in this Update permit use of the OIS rate based on SOFR as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815 in addition to the interest rates on direct U.S. Treasury obligations, the LIBOR swap rate, the OIS rate based on the Fed Funds Effective Rate and the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Municipal Swap Rate. The amendments in ASU 2018-16 became effective for the Company in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2017-12 on January 1, 2019, and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity.

ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments” In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, that clarifies and improves areas of guidance related to the recently issued standards on credit losses (ASU 2016-13), hedging (ASU 2017-12), and recognition and measurement of financial instruments (ASU 2016-01). The amendments generally have the same effective dates as their related standards. If already adopted, the amendments of ASU 2016-01 and ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and the amendments of ASU 2017-12 are effective as of the beginning of the Company’s next annual reporting period; early adoption is permitted. The Company previously adopted both ASU 2017-12 and ASU 2016-01 and does not expect the amendments of ASU 2019-04 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity.

Table of Contents

Our Business

Our principal business activity is lending to, accepting deposits from, and conducting financial transactions, with and for individuals, businesses, municipalities, and other entities located in the communities we serve. We derive our income principally from interest charged on loans and, to a lesser extent, from interest and dividends earned on investments. We also derive income from non-interest sources such as fees received in connection with various lending and deposit services; trust, employee benefit, investment, and insurance services; mortgage loan originations, sales and servicing; merchant and electronic banking services; and from time to time, gains on sales of assets. Our principal expenses include interest expense on deposits and borrowings, operating expenses, provisions for loan losses, and income tax expense.

Our loan portfolio consists of a mix of real estate, consumer, commercial, agricultural, and other loans, including fixed and variable rate loans. Our real estate loans comprise commercial real estate, construction (including residential, commercial and land development loans), residential, agricultural, and other real estate loans. Fluctuations in the loan portfolio are directly related to the economies of the communities we serve. While each loan originated must meet minimum underwriting standards established in our credit policies, lending officers are granted discretion within pre-approved limits in approving and pricing loans to assure that the banking offices are responsive to competitive issues and community needs in each market area. We fund our loan portfolio primarily with the core deposits from our customers, generally without utilizing brokered deposits and with minimal reliance on wholesale funding sources.

Recent Trends and Developments

During the past few years, we have increased our community banking footprint across the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Northwest regions, in large part due to our acquisition activity. We will continue to evaluate bank acquisitions and other strategic opportunities on an on-going basis.

On October 11, 2018 , the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding stock of IIBK, a community bank headquartered in Coeur d' Alene, Idaho with 11 banking offices across Idaho. The acquisition and merger was completed on April 8, 2019, and conversion of the data processing systems occurred on June 7, 2019. Consideration for the acquisition was $157.3 million , consisting of the issuance of 3.871 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock valued at $40.64 per share, the closing price of the Company's Class A common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ stock market on the acquisition date. Holders of each share of IIBK common stock received 0.50 shares of First Interstate Class A common stock for each share of IIBK common stock.

On October 11, 2018 , the Company also entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding stock of CMYF, a community bank headquartered in Post Falls, Idaho with three banking offices in North Idaho. The acquisition and merger was completed on April 8, 2019, and conversion of the data processing systems occurred on June 7, 2019. Consideration for the acquisition was $18.8 million , consisting of the issuance of 0.463 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock valued at $40.64 per share, the closing price of the Company's Class A common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ stock market on the acquisition date. Holders of each share of CMYF common stock received 0.3784 shares of First Interstate Class A common stock for each share of CMYF common stock.

On August 16, 2018 , the Company completed its acquisition of Northwest, the parent company of INB, a Spokane, Washington based community bank with 20 banking offices across Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. The Company merged INB and converted data processing systems with its existing bank subsidiary, FIB, on November 9, 2018 . Consideration for the acquisition included $176.3 million , consisting of the issuance of 3.838 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock valued at $45.15 per share, the closing price of the Company's Class A common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ stock market on the acquisition date. The Company paid approximately $3.0 million in cash related to Northwest warrants, which were included in the consideration paid. Holders of each share of Northwest common stock received 0.516 shares of First Interstate Class A common stock for each share of Northwest common stock. Additionally, all Northwest stock purchase warrants outstanding immediately prior to the close of the transaction were canceled in exchange for the right to receive a cash payment as provided in the Agreement. Previously unvested Northwest restricted stock awards outstanding immediately prior to the close of the transaction vested and were considered issued and outstanding at acquisition close.

Primary Factors Used in Evaluating Our Business

As a banking institution, we manage and evaluate various aspects of both our financial condition and our results of operations. We monitor our financial condition and performance and evaluate the levels and trends of the line items included in our balance sheet and statements of income, as well as various financial ratios that are commonly used in our industry. We analyze these ratios and financial trends against both our own historical levels and the financial condition and performance of comparable banking institutions in our region and nationally.

Results of Operations

Principal tools we use in managing and evaluating our results of operations include tracking performance as measured by certain metrics including return on average equity, net interest income, non-interest income, non-interest expense, and net income. Net interest income is affected by a number of factors such as the level of interest rates, changes in interest rates, and changes in the volume and composition of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Changes in interest rate spread, which is the difference between interest earned on assets and interest paid on liabilities, has the most significant impact on net interest income. Other factors like volume of loans, investment securities, and other interest earning assets compared to the volume of interest bearing deposits and indebtedness also cause changes in our net interest income between periods. Non-interest bearing sources of funds, such as demand deposits and stockholders’ equity, help to support earning assets.

The impact of funding, including non-interest bearing deposit sources, is captured in the net interest margin, which is calculated as net interest income divided by average earning assets. We evaluate our net interest income by assessing the yields on our loans and other earning assets, the costs of our deposits and other funding sources, and the levels of our net interest spread and net interest margin.

We seek to increase our non-interest income over time, and we evaluate our non-interest income relative to the trends of the individual types of non-interest income in view of prevailing market conditions.

We manage our non-interest expenses in consideration of growth opportunities and our community banking model that emphasizes customer service and responsiveness. We evaluate our non-interest expense on factors that include our non-interest expense relative to our average assets, our efficiency ratio and the trends of the individual categories of non-interest expense.

Finally, we seek to increase our net income and provide favorable shareholder returns over time, and we evaluate our net income relative to the performance of similar bank holding companies on factors that include return on average assets, return on average equity, total shareholder return, and growth in earnings.

Financial Condition

Managing and evaluating our financial condition, we focus on liquidity, the diversification and quality of our loans, the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses, the diversification and terms of our deposits and other funding sources, the re-pricing characteristics and maturities of our assets and liabilities, including potential interest rate exposure, and the adequacy of our capital levels. We seek to maintain sufficient levels of cash and investment securities to meet potential payment and funding obligations, and we evaluate our liquidity on factors that include the levels of cash and highly liquid assets relative to our liabilities, the quality and maturities of our investment securities, the ratio of loans to deposits and any reliance on brokered certificates of deposit or other wholesale funding sources.

We seek to maintain a diverse and high quality loan portfolio and evaluate our asset quality on factors that include the allocation of our loans among loan types, credit exposure to any single borrower or industry type, non-performing assets as a percentage of total loans and OREO, and loan charge-offs as a percentage of average loans. We seek to maintain our allowance for loan losses at a level adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date, and we evaluate the level of our allowance for loan losses relative to our overall loan portfolio and the level of non-performing loans and potential charge-offs.

We seek to fund our assets primarily using core customer deposits spread among various deposit categories, and we evaluate our deposit and funding mix on factors that include the allocation of our deposits among deposit types, the level of our non-interest bearing deposits, the ratio of our core deposits (i.e. excluding time deposits above $100,000) to our total deposits, and our reliance on brokered deposits or other wholesale funding sources, such as borrowings from other banks or agencies. We seek to manage the mix, maturities and re-pricing characteristics of our assets and liabilities to maintain relative stability of our net interest rate margin in a changing interest rate environment, and we evaluate our asset-liability management using models to evaluate the changes to our net interest income under different interest rate scenarios.

Finally, we seek to maintain adequate capital levels to absorb unforeseen operating losses and to help support the growth of our balance sheet. We evaluate our capital adequacy using the regulatory and financial capital ratios including leverage capital ratio, tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, total risk-based capital ratio, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tier 1 common capital to total risk-weighted assets.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and follow general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant accounting policies we follow are summarized in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 .

Our critical accounting estimates are summarized below. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if: (1) the accounting estimate requires management to make particularly difficult, subjective, and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or the use of different estimates that management could have reasonably used in the current period, would have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, results of operations, or liquidity.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses creates an allowance for loan losses known and inherent in the loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

We perform a quarterly assessment of the risks inherent in our loan portfolio, as well as a detailed review of each significant loan we have assessed to have weaknesses. Based on this analysis, we record a provision for loan losses in order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at appropriate levels. In determining the allowance for loan losses, we estimate losses on specific loans, or groups of loans, where the probable loss can be identified and reasonably determined. Loans acquired in business combinations are recorded at their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. Accordingly, no allowance for loan losses related to these loans is recorded at the date of transfer. An allowance for loan losses is recorded for credit deterioration occurring subsequent to the transfer date. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the use of subjective measurements, including management’s assessment of the internal risk classifications of loans, historical loan loss rates, changes in the nature of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, and the impact of current local, regional, and national economic factors on the quality of the loan portfolio. Changes in these estimates and assumptions are possible and may have a material impact on our allowance, and as a result, on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at an amount we believe is sufficient to provide for estimated losses inherent in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date, and fluctuations in the provision for loan losses result from management’s assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The loan loss rates for 2018 and 2019 incorporate the available loss history data from Bank of the Cascades prior to the merger date to represent a consolidated institutional loss rate for both originated and acquired portfolios. Management monitors qualitative and quantitative trends in the loan portfolio, including changes in the levels of past due, internally classified, and non-performing loans. Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 describes the methodology used to determine the allowance for loan losses. A discussion of the factors driving changes in the amount of the allowance for loan losses is included herein under the heading “Financial Condition - Allowance for Loan Losses.”

Goodwill

The excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets from acquisitions, or goodwill, is evaluated for impairment at least annually and on an interim basis if an event or circumstance indicates that it is likely impairment has occurred. Goodwill impairment is determined by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount. In any given year the Company may elect to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is in excess of its carrying value. If it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is in excess of the carrying value, or if the Company elects to bypass the qualitative assessment, a quantitative impairment test is performed. In performing a quantitative test for impairment, the fair value of net assets is estimated based on analyses of the Company’s market value, discounted cash flows and peer values. The determination of goodwill impairment is sensitive to market-based economics and other key assumptions used in determining or allocating fair value. Variability in the market and changes in assumptions or subjective measurements used to estimate fair value are reasonably possible and may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations. Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 describes our accounting policy with regard to goodwill.

Our annual goodwill impairment test is performed each year as of July 1 st . Upon the most recent goodwill impairment qualitative assessment, the Company determined its goodwill was not considered impaired. We will continue to monitor our performance and evaluate our goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently as needed.

Fair Values of Loans Acquired in Business Combinations

Loans acquired in business combinations are initially recorded at fair value with no carryover of the related allowance for credit losses. Credit risks are included in the determination of fair value. Determining the fair value of the loans involves estimating the amount and timing of principal and interest cash flows initially expected to be collected on the loans and discounting those cash flows at an appropriate market rate of interest.

For loans with no significant evidence of credit deterioration since origination, the difference between the fair value and the unpaid principal balance of the loan at the acquisition date is amortized into interest income using the effective interest method over the remaining period to contractual maturity. Loans acquired with evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination are accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 310-30 “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality.” For loans that meet the criteria stipulated in ASC Topic 310-30, the excess of all cash flows expected at acquisition over the initial fair value of the loans acquired (“accretable yield”) is amortized to interest income over the expected remaining contractual lives of the underlying loans using the effective interest method. The Company continues to evaluate the reasonableness of expectations for the timing and amount of cash to be collected. Increases in expected cash flows subsequent to the initial measurement are recognized prospectively through adjustment of the yield on the loan over its remaining life. Decreases in expected cash flows are recognized as impairment. Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 further describes our accounting policy with regard to acquired loans.

Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis is intended to provide greater details of the results of our operations and financial condition. The financial statements as of June 30, 2019 are inclusive of the effects of the combined results of operations of the INB acquisition, which closed in August 2018, and IIBK and CMYF acquisitions, which closed in April 2019. Due to the timing of the acquisitions, certain comparisons between periods are significantly affected by the transactions.

Net Interest Income

Changes in interest rate spread, which is the difference between interest earned on assets and interest paid on liabilities, has the most significant impact on net interest income. Other factors like volume of loans, investment securities, and other interest earning assets compared to the volume of interest bearing deposits and indebtedness also cause changes in our net interest income between periods. Non-interest bearing sources of funds, such as demand deposits and stockholders’ equity, help to support earning assets.

Our net interest income increased $21.5 million , or 20.7% , to $125.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $103.8 million for the same period in 2018 , and increased $37.7 million , or 18.5% , to $241.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $203.6 million for the same period in 2018 . The increases in 2019 are primarily attributable to higher levels of earning assets as a result of the INB, IIBK, and CMYF acquisitions, as well as organic growth and an expansion in our net interest margin.

Net interest income included interest accretion related to the fair valuation of acquired loans of $5.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , of which $2.6 million was the result of early loan payoffs, and $9.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , of which $4.4 million was the result of early loan payoffs. This compares to interest accretion of $2.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 , of which $1.1 million was the result of early loan payoffs, and $6.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 , of which $2.2 million was the result of early loan payoffs.

Recoveries of charged-off interest also impact net interest income. Net charged-off interest recoveries were $1.5 million and $2.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $1.9 million and $2.6 million during the same period in 2018 .

Our net FTE interest margin ratio increased 21 basis points to 4.08% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to 3.87% for the same period in 2018 . Similarly, our net FTE interest margin ratio increased 25 basis points to 4.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to 3.81% for the same period in 2018 . Increases in net FTE interest margin ratio during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to the same period in 2018 , and during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to the same period in 2018 were primarily due to increases in average outstanding loans and higher yields on interest earning assets, which were offset by increases in funding costs.

Exclusive of the impact of the recovery of charged-off interest and the impact of interest accretion on acquired loans, our net FTE interest margin ratio was 3.86% during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to 3.69% for the same period in 2018 , or a 17 basis point increase, and 3.86% during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to 3.65% in the same period in 2018 .

The table below sets forth a summary of the changes in interest income and interest expense resulting from estimated changes in average asset and liability balances (volume) and estimated changes in average interest rates (rate) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 .

Provision for Loan Losses

Fluctuations in the provision for loan losses reflect management’s estimate of possible loan losses based upon the composition of our loan portfolio, evaluation of the borrowers’ ability to repay, collateral value underlying loans, loan loss trends and estimated effects of current economic conditions on our loan portfolio. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $3.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $2.9 million during same period in 2018 . During the six months ended June 30, 2019 , we recorded a provision for loan losses of $7.5 million , as compared to $5.0 million during the same period in 2018 . Higher levels of the provision were attributable to organic loan growth and an increase in loans migrating from the acquired loan portfolio to the originated loan portfolio due to renewals, refinancing, and restructure during the three months ended June 30, 2019 in addition to higher net-charge-offs during the six months ended June 30, 2019 . Changes in the provision for loan loss between quarters are reflective of management’s assessment of the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses.

Non-interest Income

Our principal sources of non-interest income primarily include fee-based revenues such as payment services, mortgage banking and wealth management revenues, service charges on deposit accounts and other service charges, commissions and fees. The following table presents the composition of our non-interest income as of the dates indicated:

Non-interest income — (Dollars in millions) Three Months Ended June 30, $ Change % Change Six Months Ended June 30, $ Change % Change
2019 2018 2019 2018

Other income 5.1 2.6 2.5 96.2 9.4 6.5 2.9 44.6
Total non-interest income $ 39.4 $ 37.6 $ 1.8 4.8 % $ 73.9 $ 72.8 $ 1.1 1.5 %

Total non-interest income increased $1.8 million , or 4.8% , to $39.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $37.6 million for the same period in 2018 and increased $1.1 million , or 1.5% , to $73.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $72.8 million for the same period in 2018 . Significant components of theses fluctuations are discussed below.

Payment services revenues consist of interchange fees that merchants pay for processing electronic payment transactions and ATM service fees. Payment services revenues decreased $2.4 million , or 18.6% , to $10.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $12.9 million earned during the same period in 2018 . For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , payment services revenue decreased $3.5 million or 15.0% , to $19.9 million , as compared to $23.4 million during the same period in 2018 . The decreases in payment services revenues of $3.6 million and $6.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are primarily due to the impact of the Durbin Amendment rule (which limits the amount of interchange fees certain banks may charge), which impacted our Company beginning July 1, 2018. These decreases were offset by increases in debit card and credit card volume resulting in higher interchange revenues.

Mortgage banking revenues increased $1.2 million , or 16.7% , to $8.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $7.2 million during the same period in 2018 . For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , mortgage banking revenues increased $1.2 million , or 9.5% , to $13.8 million as compared to $12.6 million during the same period in 2018 . The increases are the result of lower mortgage rates driving an increase in mortgage loan originations and the impact of our expansion into new markets. Our overall loan production for originated home purchases was approximately 81.4% and 80.6% of production for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, compared to 80.0% and 74.7% for the same periods in 2018 .

Other income primarily includes company-owned life insurance revenues, check printing income, agency stock dividends and gains on sales of miscellaneous assets. Other income increased $2.5 million , or 96.2% , to $5.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $2.6 million during the same period in 2018 and increased $2.9 million , or 44.6% , to $9.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $6.5 million during the same period in 2018 . The increases in other income between periods was primarily due to net gains on the sale of premises and equipment, life insurance proceeds, and other normal fluctuations in other income.

Non-performing loans. Non-performing loans include non-accrual loans and loans contractually past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. Impaired loans include all loans risk rated doubtful, loans placed on non-accrual status and loans renegotiated in troubled debt restructurings, with the exception of consumer loans. We monitor and evaluate collateral values on impaired loans quarterly. Appraisals are required on all impaired loans every 18-24 months, or sooner as conditions necessitate. We update valuations on collateral underlying oil and gas credits based on recent market-based oil price forecasts provided by an independent third party. We also monitor real estate values by market for our larger market areas. Based on trends in real estate values, adjustments may be made to the appraised value based on time elapsed between the appraisal date and the impairment analysis or a new appraisal may be ordered. Appraised values in our smaller market areas may be adjusted based on trends identified through discussions with local realtors and appraisers. Appraisals are also adjusted for selling costs. The collateral valuation is then compared to the loan balance and any resulting shortfall is recorded in the allowance for loan losses as a specific valuation allowance. Provisions for loan losses are impacted by changes in the specific valuation allowances and historical or general valuation elements of the allowance for loan losses.

The following table sets forth the allocation of our non-performing loans among our various loan categories as of the dates indicated.

Non-accrual loans . We generally place loans, excluding acquired credit impaired loans, on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past due, unless they are well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed from income. If all loans on non-accrual status had been current in accordance with their original terms, gross income of approximately $1.2 million and $1.7 million would have been accrued for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. Non-accrual loans decreased approximately $13.3 million , to $41.0 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $54.3 million as of December 31, 2018 . The decrease in non-accrual loans was driven by an agricultural real estate loan moved into OREO. Accruing loans past due 90 days or more increased $1.4 million , or 36.8% , primarily due to an increase in commercial real estate loans. Other real estate owned increased $13.2 million , or 91.7% , from December 31, 2018 . The increase in other real estate owned was driven by $13.3 million in foreclosures primarily related to three properties, and the IIBK acquired other real estate owned, offset by $2.1 million in dispositions.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company performs a quarterly assessment of the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses in accordance with GAAP. The methodology used to assess the adequacy is consistently applied to the Company’s loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on our evaluation of known and inherent risk in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. In determining the allowance for loan losses, we estimate losses on specific loans, or groups of loans, where the probable loss can be identified and reasonably determined. The balance of the allowance for loan losses is based on internally assigned risk classifications of loans, historical loan loss rates, changes in the nature of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, current economic factors and the estimated impact of current economic conditions on certain historical loan loss rates. See the discussion under “Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Accounting Policies - Allowance for Loan Losses.”

The allowance for loan losses is increased by provisions charged against earnings and net recoveries of charged-off loans and is reduced by negative provisions credited to earnings and net loan charge-offs. The allowance for loan losses consists of three elements:

(1) Specific valuation allowances associated with impaired loans. Specific valuation allowances are determined based on assessment of the fair value of the collateral underlying the loans as determined through independent appraisals, the present value of future cash flows, observable market prices and any relevant qualitative or environmental factors impacting loans. No specific valuation allowances are recorded for impaired loans that are adequately secured.

(2) Historical valuation allowances based on loan loss experience for similar loans with similar characteristics and trends. Historical valuation allowances are determined by applying percentage loss factors to the credit exposures from outstanding loans. For commercial, agricultural and real estate loans, loss factors are applied based on the internal risk classifications of these loans. For consumer loans, loss factors are applied on a portfolio basis. For commercial, agriculture and real estate loans, loss factor percentages are based on a migration analysis of our historical loss experience, designed to account for credit deterioration. For consumer loans, loss factor percentages are based on a three-year loss history.

(3) General valuation allowances determined based on changes in the nature of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, general economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to us.

Based on the assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, the Company records provisions for loan losses to maintain the allowance for loan losses at appropriate levels.

Loans acquired in business combinations are recorded at fair value with no allowance for loan losses on the date of acquisition. Subsequent to the acquisition date, an allowance for loan loss is recorded for the emergence of new probable and estimable losses on loans acquired without evidence of credit impairment. Loans acquired with evidence of credit impairment are regularly monitored and to the extent that the performance has deteriorated from the Company’s expectations at the date of acquisition, an allowance for loan losses is established. As of June 30, 2019 , the Company determined that an allowance of $0.8 million related to loans acquired in prior year acquisitions with evidence of credit impairment was required under GAAP.

Table of Contents

Loans, or portions thereof, are charged-off against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely, or, with respect to consumer installment loans, according to an established delinquency schedule. Generally, loans are charged-off when (1) there has been no material principal reduction within the previous 90 days and there is no pending sale of collateral or other assets, (2) there is no significant or pending event which will result in principal reduction within the upcoming 90 days, (3) it is clear that we will not be able to collect all or a portion of the loan, (4) payments on the loan are sporadic, will result in an excessive amortization or are not consistent with the collateral held or (5) foreclosure or repossession actions are pending. Loan charge-offs do not directly correspond with the receipt of independent appraisals or the use of observable market data if the collateral value is determined to be sufficient to repay the principal balance of the loan.

If the impaired loan is adequately collateralized, a specific valuation allowance is not recorded. As such, significant changes in impaired and non-performing loans do not necessarily correspond proportionally with changes in the specific valuation component of the allowance for loan losses. Additionally, the Company expects the timing of charge-offs will vary between quarters and will not necessarily correspond proportionally to changes in the allowance for loan losses or changes in non-performing or impaired loans due to timing differences among the initial identification of an impaired loan, recording of a specific valuation allowance for the impaired loan and any resulting charge-off of uncollectible principal.

The following table sets forth information regarding our allowance for loan losses as of and for the periods indicated.

Our allowance for loan losses was $74.2 million , or 0.82% of period end loans, as of June 30, 2019 , as compared to $73.0 million , or 0.86% of period end loans, as of December 31, 2018 . The decrease in the percentage from December 31, 2018 is primarily a result of higher loan balances from the INB, IIBK, and CMYF acquired loans, which were recorded at fair value for INB and provisionally recorded at fair value for IIBK and CMYF in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), with no corresponding allowance for loan losses in purchase accounting.

Table of Contents

Although we have established our allowance for loan losses in accordance with GAAP and we believe that our allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for known and inherent losses in the portfolio at all times, future provisions will be subject to on-going evaluations of the risks in the loan portfolio. If the economy declines or asset quality deteriorates, material additional provisions could be required.

Investment Securities.

We manage our investment portfolio to obtain the highest yield possible, while meeting our risk tolerance and liquidity guidelines and satisfying the pledging requirements for deposits of state and political subdivisions and securities sold under repurchase agreements. Investment securities increased $31.0 million , or 1.2% , to $2,708.5 million , or 18.8% of total assets, as of June 30, 2019 , from $2,677.5 million , or 20.1% of total assets, as of December 31, 2018 . Exclusive of $78.7 million of IIBK and CMYF acquired securities, investment securities decreased $47.7 million , or 1.8% . As of June 30, 2019 , the estimated duration of our investment portfolio was 1.9 years, as compared to 2.5 years as of December 31, 2018 .

We evaluate our investment portfolio quarterly for other-than-temporary declines in the market value of individual investment securities. This evaluation includes monitoring credit ratings; market, industry and corporate news; volatility in market prices; and, determining whether the market value of a security has been below its cost for an extended period of time. As of June 30, 2019 , we had investment securities with fair values aggregating $407.8 million that had been in a continuous loss position more than twelve months. Gross unrealized losses on these securities of $2.6 million as of June 30, 2019 were attributable to changes in interest rates. As the Company does not have the intent to sell any of the available-for-sale securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any securities before a recovery in cost, no impairment losses were recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018 .

At December 31, 2018, we had $406.8 million of investment securities classified as held to maturity. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2017-12 discussed in “Note 16 – Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance” in the accompanying “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements” included in this report, the Company transferred investment securities classified as held-to-maturity to investment securities available-for-sale. At the time of transfer, the amortized cost and fair value of these securities totaled $281.1 million and $275.0 million, respectively. In addition, the unrealized loss of $6.0 million was recorded in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

Goodwill increased $76.8 million , or 14.0% , to $623.5 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $546.7 million as of December 31, 2018 , attributable to the finalization of the INB acquisition and provisional goodwill of $77.2 million recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of IIBK and CMYF.

Company-Owned Life Insurance.

Company-owned life insurance increased $16.6 million , or 6.0% , to $291.7 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $275.1 million as of December 31, 2018 , primarily attributable to provisional amounts of $15.2 million recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of IIBK.

Premises and equipment.

Premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation increased $75.9 million , or 31.0% , to $321.1 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $245.2 million as of December 31, 2018 , primarily due to $22.5 million of premises and equipment acquired with the acquisition of IIBK and CMYF and the Company recognizing $54.6 million in right-of-use assets related to leases, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 discussed in “Note 1 – Basis of Accounting” and “Note 16 – Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance” in the accompanying “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements” included in this report.

Core Deposit Intangibles, Net of Accumulated Amortization.

Core deposit intangibles, net of accumulated amortization, increased $11.0 million , or 19.3% , to $67.9 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $56.9 million as of December 31, 2018 , attributable to provisional core deposit intangibles of $16.6 million recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of IIBK and CMYF offset by amortization expense.

Other real estate owned.

Other real estate owned increased $13.2 million , or 91.7% , to $27.6 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $14.4 million as of December 31, 2018 . The increase in other real estate owned was driven by $13.3 million in foreclosures primarily related to three properties, and the IIBK acquired other real estate owned, offset by $2.1 million in dispositions.

Other Assets

Other assets increased $22.4 million , or 14.1% , to $181.5 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $159.1 million as of December 31, 2018 . The increase is primarily attributable to provisional amounts of $8.7 million recorded for IIBK and CMYF assets in conjunction with the acquisitions, an increase in federal reserve stock, and an increase related to our interest rate swap contracts.

Deposits

Our deposits consist of non-interest bearing and interest bearing demand, savings, individual retirement and time deposit accounts. Total deposits increased $809.2 million , or 7.6% , to $11,489.9 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $10,680.7 million as of December 31, 2018 . The increase is attributable to $706.7 million of IIBK and CMYF acquired deposits and an increase of $102.5 million as a result of organic growth.

The following table summarizes our deposits as of the dates indicated:

Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements.

In addition to deposits, repurchase agreements with commercial depositors, which include municipalities, provide an additional source of funds. Under repurchase agreements, deposit balances are invested in short-term U.S. government agency securities overnight and are then repurchased the following day. All outstanding repurchase agreements are due in one day and balances fluctuate in the normal course of business. Repurchase agreement balances decreased $25.7 million , or 3.6% , to $686.7 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $712.4 million as of December 31, 2018 . Exclusive of the provisional amount of $30.4 million of securities sold under repurchase agreements acquired from IIBK, securities sold under repurchase agreements decreased $56.1 million , or 7.9% .

Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $55.8 million , or 59.3% , to $149.9 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $94.1 million as of December 31, 2018 , primarily due to the Company recognizing $54.6 million in liabilities related to leases, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 discussed in “Note 1 – Basis of Accounting” and “Note 16 – Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance” in the accompanying “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements” included in this report.

Deferred Tax Asset / Liability

Our deferred tax liability, net increased $15.8 million , or 183.7% , to $24.4 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $8.6 million as of December 31, 2018 , primarily as a result of mark-to-market unrealized gains and stock compensation.

Capital Resources and Liquidity Management

Stockholders’ equity is influenced primarily by earnings, dividends, sales and redemptions of common stock, and changes in the unrealized holding gains or losses, net of taxes, on available-for-sale investment securities. Stockholders’ equity increased $254.7 million , or 15.0% , to $1,948.6 million as of June 30, 2019 , from $1,693.9 million as of December 31, 2018 , due to the retention of earnings, other comprehensive income, stock-based compensation, proceeds from stock option exercises, and the issuance of additional shares of Class A common stock with an aggregate value of $176.1 million as consideration for the IIBK and CMYF acquisitions. This increase was offset by stock repurchases of vested restricted shares tendered in lieu of cash for payment of income tax withholding amounts by participants, and cash dividends paid.

On July 29, 2019 , the Company’s board of directors declared a dividend of $0.31 per common share, payable on August 21, 2019 , to common stockholders of record as of August 8, 2019 . The dividend equates to a 3.1% annual yield based on the $39.92 average closing pricing of the Company’s common stock during the second quarter of 2019 .

On June 11, 2019, the Company announced the board of directors adopted a new stock repurchase program to replace the program that had been in place since 2015 and which had only 24,123 shares of Class A common stock remaining to be purchased thereunder. Under the new stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase up to 2.5 million of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock. To date the Company has not repurchased any shares under the current authorization.

On July 2, 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank issued a final rule implementing a revised regulatory capital framework for U.S. banks in accordance with the Basel III international accord and satisfying related mandates under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The revised regulatory capital framework (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) substantially revised the risk-based capital requirements applicable to bank holding companies and depository institutions by defining the components of capital and addressing other issues affecting the numerator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios, addressing risk weights and other issues affecting the denominator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios and replacing the existing risk-weighting approach with a more risk-sensitive approach. The Basel III Capital Rules became effective for the Company on January 1, 2015, subject to a phase-in period for certain provisions. The capital conservation buffer required under Basel III began to phase in starting January 1, 2016 and became fully implemented on January 1, 2019.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company had capital levels that, in all cases, exceeded the guidelines to be deemed “well-capitalized.” For additional information regarding our capital levels, see “Note 11 – Regulatory Capital” in the accompanying “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements” included in this report.

Liquidity. Liquidity measures our ability to meet current and future cash flow needs on a timely basis and at a reasonable cost. We manage our liquidity position to meet the daily cash flow needs of customers, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives of our shareholders. Our liquidity position is supported by management of liquid assets and liabilities and access to alternative sources of funds. Liquid assets include cash, interest bearing deposits in banks, federal funds sold, available-for-sale investment securities, and maturing or prepaying balances in our held-to-maturity investment and loan portfolios. Liquid liabilities include core deposits, federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and borrowings. Other sources of liquidity include the sale of loans, the ability to acquire additional national market funds through non-core deposits, the issuance of additional collateralized borrowings such as FHLB advances, the issuance of debt securities, additional borrowings through the Federal Reserve’s discount window, and the issuance of preferred or common securities.

Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are primarily to fund on-going operations, including payment of interest on deposits and debt, extensions of credit to borrowers, capital expenditures, and shareholder dividends. These liquidity requirements are met primarily through cash flow from operations, redeployment of prepaying and maturing balances in our loan and investment portfolios, debt financing, and increases in customer deposits. For additional information regarding our operating, investing and financing cash flows, see the unaudited “Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows,” included in Part I, Item 1.

As a holding company, we are a corporation separate and apart from our subsidiary Bank and, therefore, we provide for our own liquidity. Our primary sources of funding include management fees and dividends declared and paid by the Bank and access to capital markets. There are statutory, regulatory, and debt covenant limitations that affect the ability of our Bank to pay dividends to us. Management believes that such limitations will not impact our ability to meet our ongoing short-term cash obligations.

The Company continuously monitors our liquidity position and adjustments are made to the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. We are not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, capital resources, or operations. In addition, we are not aware of any regulatory recommendations regarding liquidity, which if implemented, would have a material adverse effect on us.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. As of June 30, 2019 , an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019 were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods required by the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such control.

Limitations on Controls and Procedures

The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time. Because of these limitations, any system of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting may not be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.
