Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Quarterly
Report on
Form 10-Q
includes financial
information determined
by methods
other than
in accordance
with generally accepted
accounting principles
(“GAAP”). This
financial information includes
certain operating performance
measures. Management has included these non-GAAP
measures because it believes these measures may
provide useful
supplemental information
for evaluating
the Company’s
underlying performance
trends. Further,
management uses
these
measures
in
managing
and
evaluating
the
Company’s
business
and
intends
to
refer
to
them
in
discussions
about
our
operations and performance.
Operating performance
measures should be
viewed in addition
to, and not
as an alternative
to or
substitute
for,
measures
determined
in
accordance
with
GAAP,
and
are
not
necessarily
comparable
to non-GAAP
measures
that
may
be
presented
by
other
companies.
To
the
extent
applicable,
reconciliations
of
these
non-GAAP
measures
to
the
most
directly
comparable
GAAP
measures
can
be
found
in
the
‘Reconciliation
and
Management
Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures’
included in this Form 10-Q.
Overview
The Company,
the holding
company of
the Bank,
reported net
income
of
$5.3 million
or $0.26
per diluted
share for
class A common stock for the three months
ended June 30, 2022, compared
with net income of
$4.1 million or $0.64
and
$0.13 per
diluted share
for Class
A and
Class B
common stock,
respectively, for
the same
period in
2021. In
December
2021, the Company agreed to exchange all the outstanding
shares of Class B common stock for Class A common stock at
a ratio
of 5
to 1.
As of June 30,
2022 and December 31,
2021, the Company’s
only class of
securities issued and
outstanding
was Class A
common stock.
During the
first quarter
in 2022,
the Board
of Directors
(the “Board”)
approved a
share repurchase
program
of up
to
750,000 shares of Class A common stock.
Under the repurchase program,
the Company may
purchase shares of Class A
common
stock
on
a discretionary
basis from
time to
time. As
of June
30,
2022,
the
Company
had
not
repurchased
any
shares.
In
evaluating
our
financial
performance,
we
consider
the
level
of
and
trends
in
net
interest
income,
the
net
interest
margin, the cost of deposits,
levels and composition of
non-interest income and non-interest
expense, performance ratios,
asset quality ratios, regulatory capital ratios, and any significant
event or transaction.
Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons in
the bullet points below are calculated
for the quarter ended June 30, 2022
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and annualized
where appropriate:
•
Net
interest
income
increased
$3.2
million
or
25.4%
to
$15.6 million
from
$12.5
million
for
the
quarter
ended
June 30, 2021.
•
Net interest margin (“NIM”) increased to 3.37% from 3.14%
for the second quarter of 2021.
•
Total assets exceeded $2.0 billion, an increase of $161.1
million or 8.7%, compared to December 31, 2021.
•
Total loans grew to $1.4 billion, an increase of $182.7 million
or 15.3%, compared to December 31, 2021.
•
Total deposits increased $148.3 million or 9.3% to $1.7
billion from $1.6 billion at December 31, 2021.
•
Annualized return on average assets was 1.08% compared
to 0.98% at June 30, 2021.
•
Annualized return on average stockholders’ equity was 11.38% compared
to 9.74% at June 30, 2021.
•
The allowance
for credit
losses to
total loans
ratio decreased
to 1.15%
at June
30, 2022
from 1.30%
at June 30,
2021.
•
Non-performing loans to total loans was 0.00% at June
30, 2022 and 2021.
•
The Company and
the Bank exceeded
all regulatory
capital requirements
and remained
significantly above
“well-
capitalized” guidelines. At June 30, 2022, total risk-based capital ratio for the Company and the Bank were 13.74%
and 13.67%, respectively.

•
Tangible book value
per common share
(a Non-GAAP financial
measure) was $9.00
as of June 30,
2022, compared
to $27.71
at June
30,
2021. The
decline
was
primarily
driven by
an
increase
in
issued
and
outstanding
Class A
common shares as result of the exchange and redemption of preferred
shares combined with the completion of the
IPO
in
2021.

“Reconciliation
and
Management
Explanation
for
Non-GAAP
Financial
Measures”
for
a
reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
consolidated
financial
statements
are
prepared
based
on
the
application
of
U.S.
GAAP,
the
most
significant
of
which are described in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of
the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K. To prepare
financial
statements
in
conformity
with
GAAP,
management
makes
estimates,
assumptions,
and
judgments
based
on
available information. These estimates,
assumptions, and judgments affect
the amounts reported in
the financial statements
and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions,
and judgments are based on information available as of the date
of the financial statements and,
as this information changes, actual results
could differ from the estimates, assumptions and
judgments reflected
in the
financial statements.
In particular,
management
has identified
accounting
policies that,
due to
the estimates, assumptions and judgments inherent in those policies, are critical in understanding our financial statements.
Management has presented the application of these policies
to the audit and risk committee of our Board.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit
losses (“ACL”) is
a valuation allowance that
is established through charges
to earnings in the
form of
a provision for
credit losses. The
amount of the
ACL is
affected by the
following: (i) charge-offs
of loans that
decrease
the allowance;
(ii) subsequent
recoveries on
loans previously
charged off
that increase
the allowance;
and (iii)
provisions
for credit losses charged to
income that increase the allowance.
Management considers the policies
related to the ACL as
the most critical to
the financial statement
presentation. The total
ACL includes activity
related to allowances
calculated in
accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
310, Receivables, and ASC 450, Contingencies.
Throughout the year,
management estimates the probable
incurred losses in the loan portfolio
to determine if the ACL
is adequate to absorb such losses. The ACL
consists of specific and general components.
The specific component relates
to loans that are
individually classified as
impaired. We follow
a loan review program
to evaluate the credit
risk in the loan
portfolio. Loans
that have
been identified
as impaired
are reviewed
on a
quarterly basis
in order
to determine
whether a
specific reserve is
required. The general
component covers
non-impaired loans
and is based
on industry and
our specific
historical loan
loss experience,
volume, growth
and composition
of the
loan portfolio,
the evaluation
of our
loan portfolio
through our
internal
loan review
process, general
current
economic
conditions
both
internal and
external to
us that
may
affect the borrower’s ability to pay,
value of collateral and other qualitative relevant risk factors. Based on
a review of these
estimates, we
adjust the ACL
to a
level determined by
management to be
adequate. Estimates of
credit losses are
inherently
subjective as they involve an exercise of judgment.
The
CARES
Act,
as
amended
by
the
Consolidated
Appropriations
Act,
2021,
specified
that
COVID-19
related
loan
modifications executed
between March 1,
2020 and
the earlier
of (i)
60 days
after the
date of
termination
of the
national
emergency declared by President Trump and (ii) January 1, 2022, on loans
that were current as of December 31, 2019,
are
not TDRs. Additionally,
under guidance from the federal banking agencies,
other short-term modifications made on a good
faith basis
in response
to COVID-19
to borrowers
that were
current prior
to any
relief are
not TDRs
under ASC
Subtopic
310-40,
“Troubled
Debt
Restructurings
by
Creditors.”
These
modifications
include
short-term
(i.e.,
up
to
six
months)
modifications
such
as
payment
deferrals,
fee
waivers,
extensions
of
repayment
terms,
or
delays
in
payment
that
are
insignificant. The Company’s charge-off policy is to continuously
review all impaired loans to monitor the Company’s ability
to collect them in full at the applicable maturity date and/or in accordance
with terms of any restructurings. For loans which
are collateral dependent,
or deemed to
be uncollectible, any
shortfall in the
fair value of
the collateral relative to
the recorded
investment in the loan is charged off. The amount charged
-off conforms to the amount necessary
to comply with GAAP.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax
assets and
liabilities are
recognized for
the future
tax consequences
attributable to
differences
between
the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases and operating loss
and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected
to apply to
taxable income
in the
years in
which those
temporary differences
are expected
to be
recovered or
settled. The
effect
on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date.
Table of Contents
35
USCB Financial Holdings, Inc.
Q2 2022 Form 10-Q
Management is required to assess whether a valuation allowance should be established on the net deferred tax assets
based on the
consideration of
all available evidence
using a more
likely than not
standard. In its
evaluation, management
considers taxable loss
carry-back availability, expectation of sufficient
taxable income, trends
in earnings, the
future reversal
of temporary differences, and available tax planning
strategies.
The Company recognizes positions taken
or expected to be
taken in a tax
return in accordance with existing accounting
guidance on
income taxes
which prescribes
a recognition threshold
and measurement
process. Interest
and penalties
on
tax liabilities, if any, would
be recorded in interest expense and other operating non-interest
expense, respectively.
Segment Reporting
Management monitors the revenue streams for all its various
products and services. The identifiable segments are not
material
and
operations
are
managed
and
financial
performance
is
evaluated
on
an
overall
Company-wide
basis.
Accordingly, all
the financial service
operations are
considered by management
to be
aggregated in one
reportable operating
segment.

compared to
the same
period in
2021 primarily
because of
increase in
net interest
income and
no dividend
payments in
2022.
Net Interest Income
Net
interest
income
is
the
difference
between
interest
earned
on
interest-earning
assets
and
interest
incurred
on
interest-bearing liabilities and
is the
primary driver of
core earnings. Interest
income is generated
from interest and
dividends
on
interest-earning
assets,
including
loans,
investment
securities
and
other
short-term
investments.
Interest
expense
is
incurred
from
interest
paid
on
interest-bearing
liabilities,
including
interest-bearing
deposits,
FHLB
advances
and
other
borrowings.
To evaluate net
interest income, we
measure and monitor
(i) yields on
loans and other
interest-earning assets, (ii)
the
costs of deposits
and other funding
sources, (iii) net
interest spread, and
(iv) net interest margin.
Net interest spread is
equal
to the difference between rates
earned on interest-earning assets
and rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities. Net interest
margin is
equal to
the annualized
net interest
income
divided by
average interest
-earning assets.
Because
non-interest-
bearing sources of funds, such as non-interest-bearing deposits
and stockholders’ equity, also fund
interest-earning assets,
net interest margin includes the indirect benefit of these
non-interest-bearing sources.
Changes in
the market
interest rates
and interest
rates we
earn on
interest-earning assets
or pay on
interest-bearing
liabilities, as well
as the volume
and types of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
and non-interest-bearing liabilities,
are usually the
largest drivers
of periodic changes
in net interest
spread, net interest
margin and net
interest income.
Our
asset liability committee
(“ALCO”) has
in place asset-liability
management techniques
to manage major
factors that
affect
net interest income and net interest margin.

Three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months
ended June 30, 2021
Net interest income before the provision
for credit losses was $15.6 million
for the three months ended June
30, 2022,
an increase of $3.2 million or
25.4%, from $12.5 million for
the same period in 2021.
This increase was primarily attributable
to higher income from larger loan and investment portfolio
s
combined with an increase in the weighted average
loan yield.
Included with loan interest
income are PPP loan
fees totaling $484 thousand
and $925 thousand for
the three months
ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
PPP loan fees are recognized upon loan forgiveness by the SBA
.
Net interest margin
increased to 3.37%
for the quarter
ended June 30, 2022
from 3.14%
for the same
period in 2021.
The yield for loans and other interest-earning assets increased
,
while the overall interest-bearing deposits cost decreased

the six
months ended
June 30,
2022, an
increase of $5.1 million or 20.3%, from $24.9 million for the same period in
2021. This increase was primarily attributable to
higher income from larger loan and investment portfolios combined
with a decrease in the average deposit cost.
Included with loan
interest income are PPP
loan fees totaling $1.5
million and $2.4 million
for the six
months ended June 30,
2022 and 2021, respectively. PPP loan fees are recognized upon
loan forgiveness by the SBA.

Provision for Credit
Losses
The ACL
represents probable incurred losses in our portfolio. We maintain an adequate ACL
that can mitigate probable
losses inherent
in the
loan portfolio.
The ACL is increased
by the
provision for
credit losses
and is
decreased by
charge-
offs,
net
of
recoveries
on
prior
loan
charge-offs.
There
are
multiple
credit
quality
metrics
that
we
use
to
base
our
determination of
the amount
of the ACL
and corresponding
provision for
credit losses.
These credit
metrics evaluate
the
credit
quality
and
level
of
credit
risk
inherent
in
our
loan
portfolio,
assess
non-performing
loans
and
charge-offs
levels,
considers statistical and historical trends and economic conditions
and other applicable factors.
Three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months
ended June 30, 2021
The
provision
for credit
loss
was
$705
thousand
for
the
three
months
ended
June 30,
2022 compared
no
provision
recorded for the same period in 2021. The primary driver of the provision
expense was attributed to loan growth.
Six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to six months
ended June 30, 2021
The provision for
credit loss
was $705 thousand
for the six
months ended
June 30, 2022
compared a
net recovery of
$160 thousand for the same period in 2021. The primary driver of the provision expense was attributed to loan growth. The
ACL as a percentage of total
loans decreased to 1.15%
at June 30, 2022 compared
to 1.30% at June 30,
2021 due to the
growth of the loan portfolio.
See “Allowance for Credit Losses” below for further discussion
on how the ACL is calculated.
Non-Interest Income
Our services and products generate service charges and fees, mainly from our depository
accounts. We also generate
income from gain on sale of loans though our swap and SBA
programs. In addition, we own and are beneficiaries of the life
insurance policies
on some
of our
employees and
generate income
on the
increase in
the cash
surrender value
of these
policies.

Provision for Income Tax
Fluctuations in the effective tax rate reflect the effect of the differences in the inclusion or deductibility of certain income
and expenses for
income tax purposes.
Therefore, future
decisions on the
investments we choose
will affect our
effective
tax rate. Surrender value of
bank-owned life insurance policies
covering key employees, purchasing
municipal bonds, and
overall levels of taxable income will be important elements in
determining our effective tax rate.
Three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months
ended June 30, 2021
Income tax expense for the three months
ended June 30, 2022 increased to $1.7 million from
$1.3 million for the same
period in 2021. The effective tax
rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022
was 24.4% and for the three months
ended
2021 was 23.8%.
Six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six

Income tax
expense for
the six

Investment Securities
The investment portfolio
is used and
managed to provide
liquidity through cash
flows, marketability
and, if necessary,
collateral for
borrowings. The
investment portfolio
is also
used as
a tool
to manage
interest rate
risk and
the Company’s
capital
market
risk
exposure.
The
philosophy
of
the
portfolio
is
to
maximize
the
Company’s
profitability
taking

consideration the Company’s
risk appetite and
tolerance, manage
the asset composition
and diversification,
and maintain
adequate risk-based capital ratios.
The
investment
portfolio
is
managed
in
accordance
with
the
Asset
and
Liability
Management
(“ALM”)
policy,
which
includes an
investment guideline,
approved by
the Board.
Such policy
is reviewed
at least
annually or
more frequently
if
deemed necessary,
depending
on market
conditions
and/or
unexpected
events.
The investment
portfolio
composition
is
subject to change
depending on the
funding and liquidity
needs of
the Company, and the interest
risk management objective
directed by the ALCO. The portfolio of investments can be used to modify the duration of the balance
sheet. The allocation
of cash into
securities takes
into consideration
anticipated future cash
flows (uses
and sources) and
all available sources
of credit.
Our investment portfolio consists
primarily of securities issued
by U.S. government-sponsored agencies,
U.S.
agency
mortgage-backed securities,
collateralized mortgage
obligation securities,
municipal securities,
and other
debt securities,
all with varying contractual maturities and coupons. Due to the optionality embedded in these securities, the final maturities
do not
necessarily represent the
expected life of
the portfolio. Some
of these
securities will be
called or paid
down depending
on capital market conditions and expectations. The investment portfolio is regularly reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer,
Treasurer,
or the
ALCO of
the Company
to ensure
an appropriate
risk and
return profile
as well
as for
adherence to
the
investment policy.
As of June 30, 2022, the
investment portfolio consisted
of available-for-sale (“AFS”) and
held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt
securities. During the year ended December 31, 2021,
there were 28 investment securities that were transferred from AFS
to HTM with an
amortized cost basis
and fair value amount
of $67.6 million and
$68.7 million, respectively.
On the date of
transfer, these securities had a total net unrealized gain of $1.1
million. The transfer of debt securities from the AFS
to HTM
category was
made at
fair value
at the
date of
transfer.
The unrealized
gain or
loss
at the
date of
transfer is
retained in
accumulated other
comprehensive income
and in
the carrying
value of
the HTM
securities. Such
amounts are
amortized
over the remaining life of
the security.
There was no immediate
impact to net income on
the date of transfer.
Two of these
transferred securities totaling $2.0 million matured during
the second quarter of 2022.
The book value of the AFS securities is adjusted monthly
for unrealized gain or loss as a valuation allowance,
and any
gain
or
loss
is
reported
on
an
after-tax
basis
as
a
component
of
other
comprehensive
income
in
stockholders’
equity.
Periodically,
we
may
need
to
assess
whether
there
have
been
any
events
or
unexpected
economic
circumstances
to
indicate that
a security
on which
there is
an unrealized
loss is
impaired on
an other-than-temporary
basis (“OTTI”).
If the
impairment
is
deemed
to
be
permanent,
an
analysis
is
then
made
considering
many
factors,
including
the
severity
and
duration of the impairment, the severity
of the event, our intent and
ability to hold the security for a
period of time sufficient
for a
recovery in
value, recent
events specific
to the
issuer or
industry,
any related
credit events,
and for
debt securities,
external
credit
ratings
and
recent
downgrades
related
to
deterioration
of
credit
quality.
Securities
on
which
there
is
an
unrealized loss
that is
deemed to
be OTTI
are written
down to
fair value,
with the
write-down recorded
as a
realized loss
under line item
“Gain (loss) on
sale of securities
available-for-sale,
net” of the Consolidated
Statements of Operations.
As
of June 30, 2022, there are no securities
which management has classified as OTTI
.
For further discussion of our analysis
on impaired investment securities for OTTI, see Note 2 “Investment Securities” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in
this Form 10-Q.

Loans
Loans
are
the
largest
category
of
interest-earning
assets
on
the
Consolidated
Balance
Sheets,
and
usually
provide
higher yields
than the
rest of
the interest-earning
assets. Higher
yields typically
carry inherent
credit and
liquidity risks
in
comparison to lower yield assets.
The Company manages and mitigates
such risks in accordance with the
credit and ALM
policies, risk tolerance and balance sheet composition.

The
commercial real estate
and to
a lesser
extent, foreign banks
and consumer and
other loan
segments had the
most significant
growth partially offset by declines in the commercial and industrial loan segment. Commercial and industrial loans declined
primarily because of continuing PPP loan forgiveness.
Our
loan
portfolio
continues
to
grow,
with
commercial
real
estate
lending
as
the
primary
focus
which
represented
approximately 61.5%
of the total
gross loan portfolio
as of June 30,
2022. We
do not expect
any significant changes
over
the foreseeable
future in
the composition
of our
loan portfolio
or in
our emphasis
on commercial
real estate
lending. Our
loan growth
strategy
since
inception
has been
reflective
of the
market in
which
we operate
and
of
our strategic
plan
as
approved by the Board.
Most of the
commercial real estate
exposure represents
loans to commercial
businesses secured
by owner-occupied
real estate.
The growth
experienced in
recent years
is primarily
due to
implementation of
our relationship-based
banking
model and
the success
of our
relationship managers
in competing
for new
business
in a
highly competitive
metropolitan
area. Many
of our
larger loan
clients have
leng-term relationships
with members
of our
senior management
team or
our
relationship managers that date back to former institutions.
From a
liquidity perspective,
our loan
portfolio provides
us with
additional
liquidity due
to repayments
or unexpected
prepayments. The following table shows maturities and sensitivity

The information
presented
in the
table above
is based
upon the
contractual
maturities of
the individual
loans, which
may be
subject to
renewal at
their contractual
maturity.
Renewals will
depend on
approval by
our credit
department and
balance sheet
composition at the
time of
the analysis,
as well
as any
modification of terms
at the
loan’s maturity. Additionally,
maturity
concentrations,
loan
duration,
prepayment
speeds
and
other
interest
rate
sensitivity
measures
are
discussed,
reviewed, and analyzed by the ALCO. Decisions on term
rate modifications are discussed as well.
As of
June 30,
2022, approximately
59.1% of
the loans
have adjustable/variable
rates and
40.9% of
the loans
have
fixed
rates.
The
adjustable/variable
loans
re-price
to
different
benchmarks
and
tenors
in
different
periods
of
time.

contractual characteristics, there are no
material concentrations on anniversary repricing. Additionally, it is
important to note
that most
of our
loans have
interest rate
floors. This
embedded option
protects the
Company from
a decrease
in interest
rates and positions us to gain in the scenario of higher interest
rates.
Asset Quality
Our asset quality grading
analysis estimates the capability of
the borrower to repay
the contractual obligation of
the loan
agreement as scheduled or at all. The Company’s internal credit risk grading system is based on experiences with similarly
graded loans. Internal credit
risk grades are reviewed
at least once a
year, and
more frequently as
needed. Internal credit
risk ratings
may change
based on
management’s
assessment of
the results
from the
annual review,
portfolio monitoring,
and other developments observed with borrowers.
The internal credit risk grades used by the Company to
assess the credit worthiness of a loan are shown below:
Pass
– Loans indicate different levels of satisfactory
financial condition and performance.
Special Mention
– Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness
that deserves management’s
close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses
may result in deterioration of the repayment
prospects for the loan or of the institution’s
credit position at some future date.
Substandard
– Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected
by the current net worth and paying
capacity of the obligator or of the collateral pledged, if
any. Loans so classified
have a well-defined weakness or
weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt.
They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the
institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are
not corrected.
Doubtful
– Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent
in those classified at substandard, with
the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection
or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing
facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loss
– Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible.
Loan credit exposures by internally assigned grades are

Non-performing
assets include
all loans
categorized as
non-accrual or
restructured,
impaired securities,
non-accrual
troubled debt restructuring
(“TDRs”), other real
estate owned (“OREO”)
and other repossessed
assets. Problem
loans for
which the collection
or liquidation
in full
is reasonably
uncertain are
placed on
a non-accrual
status. This
determination is
based on current existing facts concerning collateral values and the paying capacity of
the borrower. When the collection of
the full contractual
balance is unlikely,
the loan is
placed on non-accrual
to avoid overstating
the Company’s
income for a
loan with increased credit risk.
If the
principal or
interest on
a commercial
loan becomes
due and
unpaid for
90 days
or more,
the loan
is placed
on
non-accrual status as of
the date it becomes
90 days past due
and remains in non-accrual
status until it meets
the criteria
for restoration to accrual status.
Residential loans, on
the other hand, are placed
on non-accrual status when
the principal
or interest
becomes due
and unpaid
for 120
days or
more and
remains in
non-accrual status
until it
meets the
criteria for
restoration
to
accrual
status.
Restoring
a
loan
to
accrual
status
is
possible
when
the
borrower
resumes
payment
of
all
principal and interest
payments for a period
of six months
and the Company
has a documented
expectation of repayment
of the remaining contractual principal and interest or the
loan becomes secured and in the process of collection.
A TDR is
a debtor
that is experiencing
financial difficulties
and to whom
the Company grants
a loan concession.
This
determination
is performed
during the
annual
review
process
or whenever
problems
are surfacing
regarding
the client’s
ability to repay in accordance with
the original terms of the loan
or line of credit. In general,
a borrower that can obtain funds
from sources
other than
the Company
at market
interest rates
at or
near those
for non-troubled
debt is
not involved
in a
troubled debt
restructuring.
The concessions
are given
to the
debtor
in various
forms,
including
interest rate
reductions,
principal
forgiveness,
extension
of
maturity
date,
waiver,
or
deferral
of
payments
and
other
concessions
intended
to
minimize potential losses.

The Company allocated
$319 thousand and $360
thousand of specific
allowance for TDR loans
at June 30, 2022 and
December 31,
2021, respectively.
There
was
no
commitment
to

funds to
these
TDR
customers
at either
date.
During the
quarter ended
June 30, 2022
and 2021,
there were
no defaults
on TDR
loans within
the prior
12 months.
Additionally, the Company
did not have any new TDR loans during the three months
ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
The
Company
provided
financial
relief
to
borrowers
impacted
by
COVID-19
and
provided
modifications
to
include
interest
only
deferral
or
principal
and

These
modifications
are
excluded
from
TDR,
classification
under
Section 4013 of the CARES Act or under applicable interagency
guidance of the federal banking regulators.

Allowance for Credit Losses
In
determining
the
balance
of
the
allowance
account,
loans
are
pooled
by
product
segments
with
similar
risk
characteristics and management
evaluates the ACL on
each segment and on
a regular basis to maintain
the allowance at
an
adequate
level
based
on
factors
which,
in
management’s
judgment,
deserve
current
recognition
in
estimating
credit
losses.
Such
factors
include
changes
in
prevailing
economic
conditions,
historical
loss
experience,
delinquency
trends,
changes in the composition and size of the loan portfolio
and the overall credit worthiness of the borrowers.
Additionally,
qualitative adjustments
are made to
the ACL when,
based on management’s
judgment, there are
factors
impacting the allowance estimate not considered by the
quantitative calculations.

Other Liabilities
The Company collects from commercial loan customers
funds which are held in escrow for future payment of
real
estate taxes and insurance. These escrow funds are disbursed
by the Company directly to the insurance companies
and
taxing authority of the borrower.
Escrow funds are recognized as other liabilities.
As of June 30, 2022 escrow balances totaled $10.2 million
compared to $4.0 million at December 31, 2021.
Borrowings
As a
member of
the FHLB, we
are eligible for
advances with various
terms and conditions.
This accessibility of
additional
funding allows
us to
efficiently
and timely
meet both
expected and
unexpected outgoing
cash flows
and collateral
needs
without adversely affecting either daily operations or the financial condition
of the Company.
As of June 30,

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We engage
in various financial
transactions in
our operations
that, under GAAP,
may not be
included on
the balance
sheet. To
meet the financing needs
of our customers we may
include commitments to extend
credit and standby letters
of
credit. To
a varying
degree, such
commitments involve
elements of
credit, market,
and interest
rate risk
in excess
of the
amount recognized
in the
balance sheet.
We use
more conservative
credit and
collateral policies
in making
these credit
commitments than
we do
for on-balance
sheet items.
We are
not aware
of any accounting
loss to
be incurred
by funding
these commitments;
however,
we
maintain
an
allowance
for
off-balance
sheet
credit
risk
which
is recorded
under
other
liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Since commitments associated with letters of
credit and commitments to extend
credit may expire unused, the
amounts
shown
do
not
necessarily
reflect
actual
future
cash
funding
requirements.
The
following
table

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend funds to a client, as long as there is no violation of any condition
established
in
the
contract,
for
a
specific
purpose.
Commitments
generally
have
variable
interest
rates,
fixed
expiration
dates or
other
termination
clauses
and
may require
payment
of
a fee.
Since many
of the
commitments
are
expected to
expire without being
fully drawn, the
total commitment
amounts disclosed
above do not
necessarily represent
future cash
requirements.
Unfunded lines of credit represent unused portions of credit facilities to our current borrowers that represent no change
in credit risk in our portfolio. Lines
of credit generally have variable interest
rates. The maximum potential amount
of future
payments we could
be required to
make is represented
by the contractual
amount of the
commitment, less
the amount of
any advances made.
Letters of credit are
conditional commitments issued
by us to guarantee
the performance of a
client to a third
party.
In
the event of nonperformance by
the client in accordance with the
terms of the agreement with the
third party,
we would be
required to fund
the commitment.
If the commitment
is funded, we
would be entitled
to seek recovery
from the client
from
the underlying collateral,
which can include
commercial real estate,
physical plant and
property, inventory, receivables, cash
or marketable securities.
Asset and Liability Management Committee
Members
of
senior
management
and
our
Board
make
up
the
asset
and
liability
management
committee,
or
ALCO.
Senior management is responsible for ensuring that Board
approved strategies, policies, and procedures for managing and
mitigating risks are appropriately executed within the designated
lines of authority and responsibility in a timely
manner.
ALCO
oversees
the
establishment,
approval,
implementation,
and
review
of
interest
rate
risk,
management,
and
mitigation strategies, ALM related policies, ALCO procedures
and risk tolerances and appetite.
While some degree
of IRR (“Interest
Rate Risk”) is
inherent to the banking
business, we
believe our ALCO
has put in
place sound risk management practices to identify,
quantify, monitor,
and limit IRR exposures.
When assessing
the scope
of IRR
exposure
and
impact on
the consolidated
balance sheet,
cash
flows and
income
statement,
management
considers
both
earnings
and
economic
impacts.
Asset
price
variations,
deposits
volatility
and
reduced earnings or outright losses could adversely affect
the Company’s liquidity,
performance, and capital adequacy.
Income simulations
are used
to assess
the impact
of changing
rates on
earnings under
different rates
scenarios and
time horizons.
These simulations
utilize both
instantaneous and
parallel changes
in the
level of
interest rates,
as well
as
non-parallel changes such as changing slopes (flat and steeping) and
twists of the yield curve, Static simulation models are
based on current exposures and
assume a constant balance sheet with
no new growth. Dynamic simulation analysis
is also
utilized to have a
more comprehensive assessment
on IRR. This simulation
relies on detailed
assumptions outlined in
our
budget and strategic plan, and in assumptions regarding changes in
existing lines of business, new business, management
strategies and client expected behavior.

USCB Financial Holdings, Inc.
Q2 2022 Form 10-Q
To
have
a
more
complete
picture
of
IRR,
the
Company
also
evaluates
the
economic
value
of
equity
(“EVE”).
This
assessment
allows
us
to
measure
the
degree
to
which
the
economic
values
will
change
under
different
interest
rate
scenarios (parallel and non-parallel). The economic value approach focuses on a longer-term time horizon and captures all
future cash flows expected
from existing assets and
liabilities. The economic value
model utilizes a static
approach in that
the analysis
does not
incorporate new
business; rather,
the analysis
shows a
snapshot in
time of
the risk
inherent in
the
balance sheet.
Market and Interest Rate Risk Management
According to our last ALCO model run as of June 30, 2022, we are an
asset-sensitive company for years one and two.
This indicates that our
assets generally reprice
faster than our liabilities,
which results in
a favorable impact to
net interest
income when market interest rates
increase. Many assumptions are used
to calculate the impact of interest
rate variations
on our
net interest
income, such
as asset
prepayment speeds,
non-maturity deposit
price sensitivity,
pricing correlations,
deposit truncations and decay rates, and key rate drivers.
Because of the inherent
use of these estimates and
assumptions in the model,
our actual results may,
and most likely
will, differ from static measures results. In addition, static measures like
EVEs do not include actions that management may
undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates or client deposit behavior. As part of our
ALM strategy
and
policy,
management
has the
ability
to modify
the
balance sheet
to
either increase
asset
duration
and
decrease liability
duration to reduce
asset sensitivity,
or to decrease
asset duration and
increase liability duration
in order
to increase asset sensitivity.
According to our model,
as of June 30,
2022, NIM should
increase for static rate
scenarios (-400 basis
points or +400
basis points).
For the static
forecast in year
one, the
estimated NIM
will remain
stable from
the
base case
scenario to
a
+400 basis points scenario. Additionally, utilizing an EVE
approach, we analyze the risk
to capital from the
effects of various
interest
rate
scenarios
through
a
long-term
discounted
cash
flow
model.
This
measures
the
difference
between
the
economic value of our assets and the economic value
of our liabilities, which is a proxy for our liquidation value.
According
to our
balance
sheet
composition,
and
as expected,
our model
stipulates
that
an
increase
of rates
will
have
a
negative
impact on the EVE. Results and analysis are presented quarterly
to the Board, and strategies are defined.
We have also
been reducing asset
sensitivity by extending
asset duration, which
has lowered our
net interest income
volatility and allowed us to keep the net interest income
consistent with ALCO objectives.
Liquidity
Liquidity is defined
as a Company’s
capacity to meet
its cash and
collateral obligations at
a reasonable cost.
Maintaining
an adequate level of liquidity depends on the Company’s ability to
efficiently meet both expected and unexpected cash flow
and collateral needs without adversely affecting
either daily operations or the financial condition of the
Company.
Liquidity risk
is the
risk that
we will
be unable
to meet
our short-term
and long-term
obligations as
they become
due
because of an inability
to liquidate assets or
obtain relatively adequate funding. The
Company’s obligations, and the funding
sources
used
to
meet
them,
depend
significantly
on
our
business
mix,
balance
sheet
structure
and
composition,
credit
quality of our assets and the cash flow profiles of our on-
and off-balance sheet obligations.
In managing
inflows and
outflows,
management
regularly
monitors situations
that can
give rise
to increased
liquidity
risk. These
include funding
mismatches, market
constraints on
the ability
to convert
assets (particularly
investments) into
cash or in accessing sources of funds (i.e., market liquidity),
and contingent liquidity events.
Changes in macroeconomic conditions, as well as exposure
to credit, market, operational, legal and reputational
risks,
such as
cybersecurity risk,
could have
an unexpected
impact on
the Company’s
liquidity risk
profile and
are factored
into
the assessment of liquidity and the ALM framework.
Management has established
a comprehensive and
holistic management process for
identifying, measuring, monitoring
and
mitigating
liquidity
risk.
Due
to
its
critical
importance
to
the
viability
of
the
Company,
liquidity
risk
management
is
integrated into our risk management processes and ALM
policy.
Critical elements of our liquidity
risk management include: effective corporate governance consisting of
oversight by the
Board and active
involvement of senior
management; appropriate strategies, policies,
procedures, and limits
used to identify
and mitigate liquidity risk; comprehensive liquidity risk measurement and
monitoring systems (including assessments of the
current and prospective cash flows or sources and uses of funds) that are commensurate with the complexity and
business
activities of
the Company;
active management
of intraday
liquidity and
collateral; an
appropriately diverse
mix of
existing

and
potential
future
funding
sources;
adequate
levels
of
highly
liquid
marketable
securities
free
of
legal,
regulatory,
or
operational
impediments,
that
can
be
used
to
meet
liquidity
needs
in
stressful
situations;
comprehensive
contingency
funding plans
that sufficiently address
potential adverse liquidity
events and emergency
cash flow
requirements; and internal
controls
and
internal
audit
processes
sufficient
to
determine
the
adequacy
of
the
institution’s
liquidity
risk
management
process.
We
expect
funds
to
be
available
from
several
basic
banking
activity
sources,
including
the
core
deposit
base,
the
repayment and maturity of loans and investment security
cash flows. Other potential funding sources include
federal funds
purchased, brokered certificates
of deposit, listing
certificates of deposit,
and borrowings
from the FHLB.
Accordingly,
our
liquidity
resources
were
adequate
to
fund
loans
and
meet
other
cash
needs
as
necessary.
We
do
not
expect
liquidity
resources to be compromised at this time.

Impact of Inflation
Our
Consolidated
Financial
Statements
and
related
notes
have
been
prepared
in
accordance
with
U.S.
GAAP,
which require the measurement of financial
position and operating results in terms
of historical dollars, without considering
the changes in the
relative purchasing power
of money over time
due to inflation. The
impact of inflation is
reflected in the
increased cost of operations.
Unlike most industrial companies,
nearly all our assets and
liabilities are monetary in
nature.
As a result,
interest rates have a
greater impact on our
performance than do the
effects of general levels
of inflation. Periods
of high inflation
are often accompanied
by relatively higher
interest rates, and
periods of low
inflation are accompanied
by
relatively lower interest rates.
As market interest rates
rise or fall in relation
to the rates earned
on loans and investments,
the
value
of
these
assets
decreases
or
increases
respectively.
Inflation
can
also
impact
core
non-interest
expenses
associated with delivering the Company’s services.

these
non-GAAP
measures
because
it
believes
these

may
provide
useful
supplemental information
for evaluating
the Company’s

managing
and
evaluating
the
Company’s

and
intends
to
refer
to
them

about
our
operations and performance.
Operating performance
measures should be
viewed in addition
to, and not
as an alternative
to or
