+Added: The Corporation uses a simulation model to calculate the potential effects of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income and the economic value of equity.
+Added: For purposes of these calculations, the economic value of equity includes the discounted present values of financial instruments, such as securities, loans, deposits and borrowed funds, and the book values of nonfinancial assets and liabilities, such as premises and equipment and accrued expenses.
The model measures and projects the amount of potential changes in net interest income, and calculates the discounted present value of anticipated cash flows of financial instruments, assuming an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates.

Further, the projected results are impacted by assumptions regarding the run-off and the extent of sensitivity to interest rate changes of deposits with no stated maturity (checking, savings and money market accounts).
−Removed: Actual results could vary significantly from these estimates, which could result in significant differences in the calculations of projected changes in net interest income and market value of portfolio equity.
+Added: Actual results could vary significantly from these estimates, which could result in significant differences in the calculations of projected changes in net interest income and economic value of equity.
Also, the model does not make estimates related to changes in the composition of the deposit portfolio that could occur due to rate competition, and the table does not necessarily reflect changes that management would make to realign the portfolio as a result of changes in interest rates.
The Corporation’s Board of Directors has established policy guidelines for acceptable levels of interest rate risk, based on an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates.
−Removed: The policy limits acceptable fluctuations in net interest income from the baseline (flat rates) one-year scenario and variances in the market value of portfolio equity from the baseline values based on current rates.
−Removed: Table XI, which follows this discussion, is based on the results of calculations performed using the simulation model as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
−Removed: The table shows the Corporation is asset-sensitive, meaning the amounts of net interest income and market value of portfolio equity increase in the upward rate scenarios and decrease in the downward rate scenarios.
−Removed: The table also shows that as of the respective dates, the changes in net interest income and changes in market value were within the policy limits in all scenarios.
+Added: The policy limits acceptable fluctuations in net interest income from the baseline (flat rates) one-year scenario and variances in the economic value of equity from the baseline values based on current rates.
+Added: Table XI, which follows this discussion, is based on the results of calculations performed using the simulation model as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

generally accepted accounting principles, available-for-sale debt securities are carried at fair value as of each balance sheet date.
The difference between amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale debt securities, net of deferred income tax, is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity.
−Removed: Increases in interest rates have caused the fair value of the Corporation’s available-for-sale debt securities to decrease, resulting in an accumulated other comprehensive loss of $36.3 million at June 30, 2022.
+Added: Increases in interest rates have caused the fair value of the Corporation’s available-for-sale debt securities to decrease, resulting in an accumulated other comprehensive loss of $56.8 million at September 30, 2022.
In contrast, most of the Corporation’s other financial instruments, including loans receivable (held for investment), deposits and borrowed funds are carried on the balance sheet at historical cost without adjustment for the impact of changes in interest rates.
As noted above, for purposes of calculations based on the simulation model, the discounted present values of all of the Corporation’s financial instruments are estimated for each interest rate shock scenario.
−Removed: As shown in Table XI, the results of the simulation model indicate the market value of portfolio equity would increase in upward rate shock scenarios and decrease in downward rate shock scenarios.
+Added: As shown in Table XI, the results of the simulation model indicate the economic value of equity would increase in upward rate shock scenarios and decrease in downward rate shock scenarios.
In the upward rate shock scenarios, although the value of securities and fixed rate loans would decline, the magnitude of the projected economic benefit from changes in the value of nonmaturity deposits would exceed the negative impact related to securities and loans.
