NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
(1) Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Nature of Business
Texas Capital Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated in November 1996 and commenced banking operations in December 1998. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Texas Capital Bank (the “Bank”).
We serve the needs of commercial businesses and professionals and entrepreneurs located in Texas as well as operate several lines of business serving a regional or national clientele of commercial borrowers. We are primarily a secured lender, with the majority of our loans held for investment, excluding mortgage finance loans and other national lines of business, being made to businesses headquartered or with operations in Texas. Our national lines of business provide specialized lending products to businesses throughout the United States.
In May 2021 the Bank applied to the Texas Department of Banking to convert from a national association to a Texas state-chartered bank. The application was approved during the third quarter and the conversion was effective at open of business on September 15, 2021. Effective as of the date of conversion, the Texas Department of Banking is the Bank’s primary regulator, the FDIC is the Bank’s primary federal regulator, and the Federal Reserve will continue to be the Company’s primary federal regulator.
Basis of Presentation
Our accounting and reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and to generally accepted practices within the banking industry. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
The consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited and certain information and disclosures in the notes to consolidated financial statements that are presented in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments and the disclosures made are adequate to make the interim financial information not misleading. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and notes to the consolidated financial statements required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “2020 Form 10-K”). Operating results for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The allowance for credit losses, the fair value of financial instruments and the status of contingencies are particularly susceptible to significant change.

At September 30, 2021, we had 118 securities in an unrealized loss position, comprised of five U.S. government agency securities, two CRT securities and 111 residential mortgage-backed securities. Based upon our September 30, 2021 review of securities with unrealized losses we have determined that all losses resulted from factors not deemed credit-related. We have evaluated the near-term prospects of each securities portfolio in relation to the severity of the unrealized losses and adverse conditions related to the securities among other factors. Based on that evaluation management has determined that we have the ability and intent to hold the securities until recovery of fair value and have recorded the unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).
Available-for-sale debt securities with carrying values of approximately $ 24.0 million and $ 1.3 million were pledged to secure certain customer repurchase agreements and deposits, respectively, at September 30, 2021. The comparative amounts at December 31, 2020 were $ 31.7 million and $ 1.9 million, respectively.
Equity Securities
Equity securities consist of investments that qualify for consideration under the regulations implementing the Community Reinvestment Act and investments related to our non-qualified deferred compensation plan.

We recorded a $ 20.0 million negative provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a provision of $ 226.0 million for the same period in 2020. The decreased provision resulted primarily from decreases in charge-offs and non-accrual loans during the nine month ended and as of September 30, 2021, as well as improvement in the economic outlook as the economy continues to recover from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. We recorded $ 11.9 million in net charge-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $ 133.4 million during the same period in 2020. Criticized loans totaled $ 728.9 million at September 30, 2021, compared to $ 1.1 billion at September 30, 2020.
A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. There were no loans that met these criteria at September 30, 2021.

(1) Loans past due 90 days and still accruing includes premium finance loans of $ 2.3 million. These loans are generally secured by obligations of insurance carriers to refund premiums on canceled insurance policies. The receipt of the refund of premiums from the insurance carriers can take 180 days or longer from the cancellation date.
(2) As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, none of our non-accrual loans were earning interest income on a cash basis. Additionally, no interest income was recognized on non-accrual loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Accrued interest of $ 674,000 was reversed during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did not have any loans considered restructured that were not on non-accrual. Of the non-accrual loans at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $ 23.7 million and $ 45.4 million, respectively, met the criteria for restructured. These loans had no unfunded commitments at their respective balance sheet dates.
We did not have any loans that were restructured during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The following table details the recorded investment at September 30, 2020 of loans restructured during the nine months ended September 30, 2020:

Total 3 $ 13,605 5 $ 28,132 8 $ 41,737
Restructured loans generally include terms to temporarily place the loan on interest only, extend the payment terms or reduce the interest rate. We did not forgive any principal on the above restructured loans. At September 30, 2020, all of the above restructured loans were on non-accrual. The restructuring of the loans did not have a significant impact on our allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2021 and 2020, we did not have any loans that were restructured within the last 12 months that subsequently defaulted.
(5) Certain Transfers of Financial Assets
On April 20, 2021, we entered into an agreement to sell our portfolio of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) and to transition the Mortgage Correspondent Aggregation (“MCA”) program to a third-party. The sale was completed on June 1, 2021 and the transfer of servicing on the underlying mortgage loans was completed on August 1, 2021. Transition activities began immediately following the execution of the agreement and are significantly complete as of September 30, 2021.
At September 30, 2021, we have a remaining MSR balance of $ 1.2 million, which represents MSRs from loans sold after the cut-off date for the initial sale mentioned above. The sale of this MSR portfolio and the transfer of servicing on the underlying mortgage loans was completed on October 1, 2021 and all related hedges were closed as of September 30, 2021.

The $ 3.8 million in loans held for sale that were 90 days or more past due at September 30, 2021 was comprised of loans guaranteed by U.S. government agencies that were purchased out of Ginnie Mae securities and recorded as loans held for sale, at fair value, on the balance sheet. Interest on these past due loans accrues at the debenture rate guaranteed by the U.S. government. At December 31, 2020, $ 3.3 million of the $ 16.7 million in loans held for sale that were 90 days or more past due were loans guaranteed by U.S. government agencies that were purchased out of Ginnie Mae securities and recorded as loans held for sale, at fair value, on the balance sheet and $ 13.4 million were loans that, pursuant to Ginnie Mae servicing guidelines, we have the unilateral right, but not the obligation, to repurchase if defined delinquent loan criteria are met, and therefore must record as held for sale on our balance sheet regardless of whether the repurchase option has been exercised.

Through the MCA program we retain the right to service the loans after they are sold, creating MSRs which are recorded as assets on our consolidated balance sheets. A summary of MSR activity is as follows:
Nine months ended September 30,

MSRs, fair value $ 1,158 $ 95,323
At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our portfolio of MSRs was comprised of residential mortgage loans with outstanding principal balances of $ 143.4 million and $ 13.8 billion, respectively.
In connection with the servicing of these loans, we hold deposits in the name of investors representing escrow funds for taxes and insurance, as well as collections in transit to such investors. These escrow funds are segregated and held in separate non-interest-bearing deposit accounts at the Bank. These deposits, included in total non-interest-bearing deposits on the consolidated balance sheets, were $2.4 million at September 30, 2021 and $ 152.6 million at December 31, 2020.
The following tables summarize the assumptions used by management to determine the fair value of MSRs and a sensitivity analysis of changes in the fair value of our MSR portfolio resulting from certain key assumptions. The MSR balance at September 30, 2021 was valued utilizing the October 1, 2021 sale price, therefore only December 31, 2020 data is provided in the tables below.
December 31, 2020

(in thousands) December 31, 2020
50 bp adverse change in prepayment speed $ ( 12,203 )
100 bp adverse change in prepayment speed ( 16,062 )
These sensitivities are hypothetical and actual results may differ materially due to a number of factors. The effect on fair value of a 10% variation in assumptions generally cannot be determined with confidence because the relationship of the change in assumptions to the fair value may not be linear. Additionally, the impact of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value is calculated while holding other assumptions constant. In reality, changes in one factor may be correlated with changes in other factors, which could impact the sensitivity analysis as presented.
In conjunction with the sale and securitization of loans held for sale, we may be exposed to liability resulting from repurchase, indemnification and make-whole agreements. Our estimated exposure related to those agreements totaled $ 619,000 and $ 621,000 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. $ 76,000 in make-whole obligation payments were made during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $ 7.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

(6) Long-term Debt
From November 2002 to September 2006 various Texas Capital Statutory Trusts were created and subsequently issued floating rate trust preferred securities in various private offerings totaling $113.4 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the combined weighted-average interest rate on the trust preferred subordinated debentures was 2.09 % and 2.14 %, respectively, compared to 2.28 % and 3.03 %, respectively, for the same periods in 2020.

On September 21, 2012, the Company issued $ 111.0 million of subordinated notes. The notes mature in September 2042 and bear interest at a rate of 6.50 % per annum, payable quarterly. The indenture governing the notes contains customary covenants and restrictions. These notes were redeemed on June 21, 2021.
On January 31, 2014, the Bank issued $ 175.0 million of subordinated notes in an offering to institutional investors exempt from registration under Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and 12 C.F.R. Part 16. The notes mature in January 2026 and bear interest at a rate of 5.25 % per annum, payable semi-annually. The notes are unsecured and are subordinate to the Bank’s obligations to its depositors, its obligations under banker’s acceptances and letters of credit, certain obligations to Federal Reserve Banks and the FDIC and the Bank’s obligations to its other creditors, except any obligations which expressly rank on a parity with or junior to the notes. The notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes, subject to applicable limitations. At the beginning of each of the last five years of the life of the notes, the amount that is eligible to be included in Tier 2 capital is reduced by 20% of the original amount of the notes (net of redemptions). In 2021, the amount of the notes that qualify as Tier 2 capital has been reduced by 20%.
On March 9, 2021, the Bank issued and sold $ 275 million of senior unsecured credit-linked notes. The notes mature on September 30, 2024, and accrue interest at a rate equal to the higher of LIBOR plus 4.50 % or 4.25 %, payable quarterly on each of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the weighted-average interest rate on the notes was 5.54 % and 5.58 %, respectively. The notes effectively transfer the risk of first losses on a $ 2.2 billion reference pool of the Bank’s mortgage warehouse loans to the purchasers of the notes in an amount up to $ 275.0 million. In the event of a failure to pay by the relevant mortgage originator, insolvency of the relevant mortgage originator, or restructuring of such loans that results in a loss on a loan included in the reference pool, the principal balance of the notes will be reduced to the extent of such loss and recognized as a debt extinguishment gain within non-interest income on our consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income. The purchasers of the notes have the option to acquire the underlying mortgage loan collateralizing the reference warehouse line of credit in lieu of a principal reduction on the notes. Losses on our warehouse lines of credit have not generally been significant. The notes are recorded in long-term debt on our consolidated balance sheets and accounted for at amortized cost. The fair value of the credit-linked note is based on observable inputs, when available, and as such are categorized as Level 2 liabilities. Because the notes are variable rate debt, the fair value approximates carrying value.
On May 6, 2021, the Company issued and sold $ 375.0 million of subordinated notes. The notes mature in May 2031 and bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.00 % per annum, payable semi-annually. Net proceeds from the transaction were $ 370.7 million providing additional capital to be used for general corporate purposes. A portion of the proceeds were also used to redeem the Company’s 6.50 % fixed rate subordinated notes, as is described above. The indenture governing the notes contains customary covenants and restrictions.

(8) Regulatory Restrictions
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory (and possibly additional discretionary) actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material adverse effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
The Basel III regulatory capital framework (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) adopted by U.S. federal regulatory authorities, among other things, (i) establishes the capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1” (“CET1”), (ii) specifies that Tier 1 capital consist of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 Capital” instruments meeting stated requirements, (iii) requires that most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to other components of capital and (iv) defines the scope of the deductions/adjustments to the capital measures.
Additionally, the Basel III Capital Rules require that we maintain a 2.5 % capital conservation buffer with respect to each of CET1, Tier 1 and total capital to risk-weighted assets, which provides for capital levels that exceed the minimum risk-based capital adequacy requirements. A financial institution with a conservation buffer of less than the required amount is subject to limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and stock repurchases, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers.
In February 2019, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule (the “2019 CECL Rule”) that revised certain capital regulations to account for changes to credit loss accounting under GAAP. The 2019 CECL Rule included a transition option that allows banking organizations to phase in, over a three-year period, the day-one adverse effects of adopting the new accounting standard related to the measurement of current expected credit losses on their regulatory capital ratios (three-year CECL transition option). In March 2020, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that maintains the three-year CECL transition option of the 2019 CECL Rule and also provides banking organizations that were required under GAAP to implement CECL before the end of 2020 the option to delay for two years an estimate of the effect of CECL on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology's effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period (five-year CECL transition option). We adopted CECL on January 1, 2020 and have elected to utilize the five-year CECL transition option.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of CET1, Tier 1 and total capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets, each as defined in the regulations. Management believes, as of September 30, 2021, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
Financial institutions are categorized as well capitalized based on total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, CET1 and Tier 1 leverage ratios. As shown in the table below, the Company’s and the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the regulatory definition of well capitalized as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The regulatory authorities can apply changes in classification of assets and such changes may retroactively subject the Company and the Bank to changes in capital ratios. Any such change could reduce one or more capital ratios below well-capitalized status. In addition, a change may result in imposition of
18
additional assessments by the FDIC or could result in regulatory actions that could have a material effect on our condition and results of operations.
Because our Bank had less than $ 15.0 billion in total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009, we are allowed to continue to classify our trust preferred securities, all of which were issued prior to May 19, 2010, as Tier 1 capital.
The table below summarizes our actual and required capital ratios under the Basel III Capital Rules. The ratios presented below include the effects of our election to utilize the five-year CECL transition described above.

(1) The Tier 1 capital ratio (to average assets) is not impacted by the Basel III Capital Rules; however, the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC may require the Company and the Bank, respectively, to maintain a Tier 1 capital ratio (to average assets) above the required minimum.
(2) Percentages represent the minimum capital ratios plus, as applicable, the fully phased-in 2.5% CET1 capital buffer under the Basel III Capital Rules.
Our mortgage finance loan volumes can increase significantly at month-end, causing a meaningful difference between ending and average balances for any period. As CET1, Tier 1 and total capital ratios are calculated using quarter-end risk-weighted assets and our mortgage finance loans are 100% risk-weighted (excluding MCA loans held for sale, which receive lower risk weights), the period-end fluctuation in these balances can significantly impact our reported ratios. Due to the actual risk profile and liquidity of this asset class, we do not believe that the period-end balance is representative of risk characteristics that would justify higher allocations, and while we manage capital allocated to mortgage finance loans based on changing trends in average balances, we do monitor our capital allocation to confirm that all capital levels remain above well-capitalized levels. To better align the actual risk profile of this asset class to its required capital allocation, the Bank issued and sold senior unsecured credit-linked notes in the first quarter of 2021 that effectively transfer the risk of first losses on a $2.2 billion reference pool of the Bank's mortgage warehouse loans to the purchasers of the notes in an amount up to $275.0 million. The issuance of these notes decreases the required risk-weight on the $2.2 billion reference pool, which significantly improves our reported ratios.
Dividends that may be paid by banks are routinely restricted by various regulatory authorities, including federal banking law requirements concerning the payment of dividends. The Basel III Capital Rules further limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by us or our Bank. No dividends were declared or paid on our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, or during the year ended December 31, 2020.

(9) Stock-based Compensation
We have long-term incentive plans under which stock-based compensation awards are granted to employees and directors by the board of directors, or its designated committee. Grants are subject to vesting requirements and may include, among other things, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), restricted stock and performance units, or any combination thereof. There are 2,550,000 total shares authorized for grant under the plans.

Tax-exempt asset-backed securities
The fair value of tax-exempt asset-backed securities is based on a discounted cash flow model, which utilizes Level 3, or unobservable, inputs, the most significant of which were a discount rate and a weighted-average life. At September 30, 2021, the discount rates utilized ranged from 2.25 % to 2.37 % and the weighted-average life ranged from 4.8 to 4.9 years. On a combined amortized cost weighted-average basis a discount rate of 2.30 % and weighted-average life of 4.8 years were utilized to determine the fair value of these securities at September 30, 2021. At December 31, 2020, the combined weighted-average discount rate and weighted-average life utilized were 2.49 % and 5.5 years, respectively.
CRT securities
The fair value of CRT securities is based on a discounted cash flow model, which utilizes Level 3, or unobservable, inputs, the most significant of which were a discount rate and a weighted-average life. At September 30, 2021, the discount rates utilized ranged from 3.12 % to 7.99 % and the weighted-average life ranged from 5.0 years to 9.8 years. On a combined amortized cost weighted-average basis a discount rate of 4.74 % and a weighted-average life of 6.6 years were utilized to determine the fair value of these securities at September 30, 2021. At December 31, 2020, the combined weighted-average discount rate and combined weighted-average life utilized were 4.36 % and 7.5 years, respectively.
Loans held for sale
The fair value of loans held for sale using Level 3 inputs include loans that cannot be sold through normal sale channels and thus require significant management judgment or estimation when determining the fair value. The fair value of such loans is generally based upon quoted prices of comparable loans with a liquidity discount applied. At September 30, 2021, the fair value of these loans was calculated using a weighted-average discounted price of 97.9 %, compared to 97.2 % at December 31, 2020.
22
Loans held for investment
Certain collateral-dependent loans held for investment are reported at fair value when, based upon an individual evaluation, the specific allocation of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the loan's amortized cost is based upon the fair value of the loan's underlying collateral. There were no collateral-dependent loans held for investment reported at fair value at September 30, 2021. The $ 21.2 million fair value of loans held for investment at December 31, 2020 reported above includes loans with a carrying value of $ 25.3 million that were reduced by specific allowance allocations totaling $ 4.1 million based on collateral valuations utilizing Level 3 inputs.

The weighted-average received and paid interest rates for interest rate swaps outstanding were as follows:

Weighted-Average Interest Rate December 31, 2020 Weighted-Average Interest Rate
Received Paid Received Paid
Non-hedging interest rate swaps 2.74 % 1.15 % 3.14 % 1.38 %
The weighted-average strike rate for outstanding interest rate caps was 2.67 % at September 30, 2021 and 3.41 % at December 31, 2020.
Our credit exposure on derivative instruments is limited to the net favorable value and interest payments by each counterparty. In some cases collateral may be required from the counterparties involved if the net value of the derivative instruments exceeds a nominal amount. Our credit exposure associated with these instruments, net of any collateral pledged, was approximately $ 56.9 million at September 30, 2021, and approximately $ 102.7 million at December 31, 2020. Collateral levels are monitored and adjusted on a regular basis for changes in interest rate swap and cap values, as well as for changes in the value of forward sale commitments. At September 30, 2021, we had $ 62.1 million in cash collateral pledged for these derivatives that is included in interest-bearing deposits in other banks. At December 31, 2020, we had $ 108.3 million in cash collateral pledged for these derivatives, of which $ 104.4 million was included in interest-bearing deposits in other banks and $ 3.9 million was included in accrued interest receivable and other assets.
We also enter into credit risk participation agreements with financial institution counterparties for interest rate swaps related to loans in which we are either a participant or a lead bank. The risk participation agreements entered into by us as a participant bank provide credit protection to the financial institution counterparty should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with that financial institution. We are party to eight risk participation agreements where we are a participant bank with a notional amount of $ 109.2 million at September 30, 2021, compared to nine risk participation agreements having a notional amount of $ 119.5 million at December 31, 2020. The maximum estimated exposure to these agreements, assuming 100% default by all obligors, was approximately $ 3.2 million at September 30, 2021 and $ 6.0 million at December 31, 2020. The fair value of these exposures was insignificant to the consolidated financial statements at both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Risk participation agreements entered into by us as the lead bank provide credit protection to us should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with us. We are party to 16 risk participation agreements where

we are the lead bank having a notional amount of $ 167.4 million at September 30, 2021, compared to 16 agreements having a notional amount of $ 165.9 million at December 31, 2020.
(12) Material Transactions Affecting Stockholders' Equity
On March 3, 2021, we completed an issuance of 5.75 % fixed rate non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, Series B, with a liquidation preference of $ 1,000 per share (equivalent to $ 25 per depositary share) (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and an issuance and sale of 12,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of the Series B Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are not cumulative and will be paid when declared by our board of directors to the extent that we have legally available funds to pay dividends. If declared, dividends will accrue and be payable quarterly, in arrears, on the liquidation preference amount, on a non-cumulative basis, at a rate of 5.75 % per annum. Holders of preferred stock will not have voting rights, except with respect to certain changes in the terms of the preferred stock, certain dividend non-payments and as otherwise required by applicable law. Net proceeds from the sale totaled $ 289.7 million, providing additional capital to be used for general corporate purposes. A portion of the proceeds were also used to redeem, in whole, our 6.50 % non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock Series A, par value $ 0.01 per share, in accordance with its terms.
On June 15, 2021 we redeemed all 6,000,000 outstanding shares of our 6.50 % non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, Series A.
(13) New Accounting Standards
ASU 2020-04, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” (“ASU 2020-04”) provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to loan and lease agreements, derivative contracts and other transactions affected by the anticipated transition away from LIBOR toward new interest rate benchmarks. For transactions that are modified because of reference rate reform and that meet certain scope guidance (i) modifications of loan agreements should be accounted for by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate and the modification will be considered “minor” so that any existing unamortized origination fees/costs would carry forward and continue to be amortized and (ii) modifications of lease agreements should be accounted for as a continuation of the existing agreement with no reassessments of the lease classification and the discount rate or remeasurements of lease payments that otherwise would be required for modifications not accounted for as separate contracts. ASU 2020-04 also provides numerous optional expedients for derivative accounting. ASU 2020-04 is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may elect to apply ASU 2020-04 for contract modifications as of January 1, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. Once elected for a Topic or an Industry Subtopic within the Codification, the amendments in this ASU must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications for that Topic or Industry Subtopic. We anticipate this ASU will simplify any modifications we execute between the selected start date (yet to be determined) and December 31, 2022 that are directly related to LIBOR transition by allowing prospective recognition of the continuation of the contract, rather than extinguishment of the old contract resulting in writing off unamortized fees/costs. The adoption of this ASU did not significantly impact our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2021-05, “Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2021-05”) amends guidance to allow lessors to classify as an operating lease any lease that would otherwise be classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease and that would result in the recognition of a day-one loss at lease commencement, provided that the lease includes variable lease payments that does not depend on an index or rate. ASU 2021-05 will be effective for us on January 1, 2022 and is not expected to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
