SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Except as discussed below, our accounting policies are described in Note 3 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
, of our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the SEC
(“Form 10-K”).
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
— 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relates to the determination of the allowance for credit losses. Other significant estimates, which may be subject to change, include fair value determinations and disclosures, impairment of investments, goodwill, loans, as well as valuation of deferred tax assets.

Adoption of New Accounting Standard
Provision and Allowance for Credit Losses
— On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU
No. 2016-13,
“Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. This ASU significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. This ASU replaces the current “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model. The new model, referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model, applies to: (1) financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and (2) certain off balance sheet credit exposures. This includes, but is not limited to, loans,
held-to-maturity
securities, loan commitments, and financial guarantees. The CECL model does not apply to
available-for-sale
(“AFS”) debt securities. For AFS debt securities with unrealized losses, we will measure credit impairment in a manner similar to the approach used prior to the adoption of CECL, except that the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. As a result, we will recognize improvements to estimated credit losses immediately in earnings rather than as interest income over time, as required prior to the adoption of CECL. As a policy election, we excluded the accrued interest receivable balance from the amortized cost basis of financing receivables and HTM securities, as well as AFS securities, and disclose total accrued interest receivable separately on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. If accrued interest is not received, it is reversed against interest income, which was zero for the third quarter of 2020.
The Company adopted this ASU using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and
off-balance
sheet credit exposures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. The Company recorded a net decrease to beginning retained earnings of $1.3 million, net of tax as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative adjustment upon adoption of ASC 326. The transition adjustment of $1.8 million was added to the beginning balance of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) for loans and $41,000 was added to the beginning balance of reserve for unfunded loan commitments. Upon adoption of CECL there was no impact on the accounting for AFS or HTM investment securities.
The Company developed an allowance model that calculates reserves over the life of the loan and is largely driven by portfolio characteristics, risk grading, macroeconomic variables and the associated economic outlook, as well as other key methodology assumptions. The allowance is based upon historical lifetime loss rate models segregated by three loan segments: Commercial and Industrial, Commercial Real Estate, and Consumer Retail. In addition to determining the quantitative life of loan loss rate to be applied against the portfolio segments, the ASU indicates management has the opportunity to layer on current conditions and forecast adjustments to ensure that the life of loan loss rate reflects both the current state of the portfolio, and expectations for macroeconomic changes in the near future. We utilized a single economic forecast that is based on probability weighted scenarios to incorporate macroeconomic uncertainty over a 2 or
3-year
forecast horizon. After the initial 2 to 3 year forecast horizon, we use an input reversion methodology in the model structure to complete a reasonable and supportable forecast period for the life of the loan.
Beginning in the second half of March 2020, the broader economy experienced a significant deterioration in the economic environment driven by the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in adverse changes to the forecasted macroeconomic variables utilized in our modeling processes. This economic deterioration, coupled with the implementation of the expected loss methodology for determining our provision for credit losses, have contributed to an increased provision for credit losses of
$23.5 
million in the first half of 2020. We continue to monitor the impact on the economy from COVID-19 closely, as well as any effects that may result from the CARES Act. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations and financial results during the final quarter of 2020 is uncertain, but we may experience increased provision for credit losses if the COVID-19 pandemic results in additional economic stress on our borrowers and loan portfolios.

The adoption of CECL did not have a material impact on the accounting for investment securities, as approximately 93% of the total investment securities portfolio at September 30, 2020 represents securities issued by the U.S. government or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, with the implied guarantee of payment of principal and interest. The remaining securities are predominately
AA-
or better general-obligation municipal bonds. The allowance for credit losses for
held-to-maturity
investment securities under the new CECL model was zero at September 30, 2020.
We adopted ASU
2016-13
on January 1, 2020, on a prospective basis. Under the new guidance, once it is determined that a credit loss has occurred, an allowance for credit losses is established on our
available-for-sale
and
held-to-maturity
securities. Prior to adoption of this standard, when a decline in fair value of a debt security was determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge for the credit component was recorded, and a new cost basis in the investment was established. During the third quarter of 2020, management determined that credit losses did not exist for securities in an unrealized loss position.
The following table presents the Company’s
available-for-sale
investment securities, by investment category, in an unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded as of September 30, 2020.

The table below presents the Company’s investment securities’ gross unrealized losses and fair value by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at December 31, 2019, prior to adoption of ASU
2016-13.
Management previously reviewed individual securities to determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other-than-temporary. The unrealized losses on these securities were primarily attributed to changes in interest rates. The issuers of these securities have not, to our knowledge, evidenced any cause for default on these securities. These securities have fluctuated in value since their purchase dates as market interest rates have fluctuated. However, we have the ability and the intention to hold these securities until their fair values recover to cost or maturity. As such, management does not deem these securities to be other-than-temporarily-impaired.

At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, investment securities having a carrying value of approximately $1.86 billion and $1.64 billion, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, short and long-term borrowings, and for other purposes as required or permitted by law.
The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities at September 30, 2020, by contractual maturity, are shown in the table below. Although mortgage-backed and CMO/REMIC securities have weighted average remaining contractual maturities of approximately 17 years, expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay such obligations without penalty
.
Mortgage-backed and CMO/REMIC securities are included in maturity categories based upon estimated average lives, which incorporate estimated prepayment speeds.

Credit Quality Indicators
An important element of our approach to credit risk management is our loan risk rating system. The originating officer assigns each loan an initial risk rating, which is reviewed and confirmed or changed, as appropriate, by credit management. Approvals are made based upon the amount of inherent credit risk specific to the transaction and are reviewed for appropriateness by senior line and credit management personnel. Loans are monitored by line and credit management personnel on an ongoing basis for deterioration or improvement in a borrower’s financial condition, which would impact the ability of the borrower to perform under the contract. Risk ratings are adjusted as necessary.
Loans are risk rated into the following categories (Credit Quality Indicators): Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful and Loss. Each of these groups is assessed for the proper amount to be used in determining the adequacy of our allowance for losses. These categories can be described as follows:
Pass — These loans, including loans on the Bank’s internal watch list, range from minimal credit risk to lower than average, but still acceptable, credit risk. Watch list loans usually require more than normal management attention. Loans on the watch list may involve borrowers with adverse financial trends, higher debt/equity ratios, or weaker liquidity positions, but not to the degree of being considered a defined weakness or problem loan where risk of loss may be apparent.
Special Mention — Loans assigned to this category have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
Substandard — Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Substandard loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful — Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or the 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 and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this asset with insignificant value even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses for 2020 is based upon historical lifetime loss rate models segregated by three loan segments: Commercial and Industrial, Commercial Real Estate, and Consumer Retail. Our methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance is reviewed on a regular basis and considers overall risks in the Bank’s loan portfolio. Refer to Note 3 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
contained herein for a more detailed discussion concerning the allowance for credit losses.
Our allowance for credit losses decreased in the third quarter by $114,000, as a result of net charge-offs of $114,000. There was no provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2020. Our allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2020 was $93.9 million or 1.12% of total loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the ACL increased by $25.2 million, including a $1.8 million increase from the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020. The increase in the ACL was primarily due to $23.5 million in provision for credit losses recorded in the first half of 2020 resulting from the forecasted changes in macroeconomic variables related to the
COVID
-19
pandemic. Our economic forecast continues to be a blend of multiple forecasts produced by Moody’s. Moody’s baseline forecast continues to represent more than a 50% weighting in our multi-weighted forecast scenario. This U.S. baseline forecast assumes GDP will increase by 27% in the third quarter, 2.9% in the fourth quarter and then grow by 3.5% in 2021 and 5% in 2022. The unemployment rate
 in this baseline forec
as
t
 is forecasted to be 8.9% in the third quarter of 2021, stay at an elevated level over 8% through 2021, before declining to 6.4% percent in 2022. With California slowly
re-opening
its
 economy and
currently
having an unemployment rate greater than 11% percent, our forecast includes a partial weighting o
f
 downside economic forecast scenarios from Moody’s.    
Management believes that the ACL was appropriate at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. There is a high degree of uncertainty around the epidemiological assumptions and impact of government responses to the pandemic that impact our economic forecast, so no assurance can be given that economic conditions that adversely affect the Company’s service areas or other circumstances will not be reflected in increased provisions for credit losses in the future.

Past Due and Nonperforming Loans
We seek to manage asset quality and control credit risk through diversification of the loan portfolio and the application of policies designed to promote sound underwriting and loan monitoring practices. The Bank’s Credit Management Division is in charge of monitoring asset quality, establishing credit policies and procedures and enforcing the consistent application of these policies and procedures across the Bank. Reviews of nonperforming, past due loans and larger credits, designed to identify potential charges to the allowance for loan losses, and to determine the adequacy of the ACL, are conducted on an ongoing basis. These reviews consider such factors as the financial strength of borrowers and any guarantors, the value of the applicable collateral, loan loss experience, estimated loan losses, growth in the loan portfolio, prevailing economic conditions and other factors. Refer to Note 3 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
, included in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019, for additional discussion concerning the Bank’s policy for past due and nonperforming loans.

Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments
The allowance for
off-balance
sheet credit exposure relates to commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and undisbursed funds on lines of credit. The Company evaluates credit risk associated with the
off-balance
sheet loan commitments at the same time as it evaluates credit risk associated with the loan and lease portfolio. As a result of the adoption of ASU
2016-13,
the reserve for unfunded loan commitments included a transition adjustment of $41,000 as of January 1, 2020. There was no provision or recapture of provision for unfunded commitments for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the balance in this reserve was $9.0 million and was included in other liabilities.
Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”)
Loans that are reported as TDRs are considered nonperforming and
charge-off
amounts are taken on an individual loan basis, as deemed appropriate. The majority of restructured loans are loans for which the terms of repayment have been renegotiated, resulting in a reduction in interest rate or deferral of principal. Refer to Note 3 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,
included in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019 for a more detailed discussion regarding TDRs.
As of September 30, 2020, there were $2.2 million of loans classified as a TDR, all of
which
were performing. TDRs on accrual status are comprised of loans that were accruing interest at the time of restructuring or have demonstrated repayment performance in compliance with the restructured terms for a sustained period and for which the Company anticipates full repayment of both principal and interest. At September 30, 2020, performing TDRs were comprised of seven SFR mortgage loans of $1.8 million, one commercial real estate loan of $354,000, and one commercial and industrial loan of $47,000.
The majority of TDRs have no specific allowance allocated as any impairment amount is normally charged off at the time a probable loss is determined. We have no allocated allowance to TDRs as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no loans that were modified as TDRs during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
There were no loans that were previously modified as a TDR within the previous 12 months that subsequently defaulted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.
In accordance with regulatory guidance, if borrowers are less than 30 days past due on their loans, upon implementation of the modification program, or as allowed under the CARES Act if borrowers are less than 30 days past due on their loans as of December 31, 2019, and enter into short-term loan modifications offered as a result of
COVID-19,
their loans generally continue to be considered performing loans and continue to accrue interest during the period of the loan modification. For borrowers who are 30 days or more past due when entering into loan modifications offered as a result of
COVID-19,
we evaluate the loan modifications under our existing troubled debt restructuring framework, and where such a loan modification would result in a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the loan will be accounted for as a TDR and will generally not accrue interest. For all borrowers who enroll in these loan modification programs offered as a result of
COVID-19,
the delinquency status of the borrowers is frozen, resulting in a static delinquency metric during the deferral period. Upon exiting the deferral program, the measurement of loan delinquency will resume where it had left off upon entry into the program. As of October 9, 2020, we have loans with temporary payment deferments of interest or of principal and interest for 90 days in the amount of $68.6 million, or less than 1% of our total loan portfolio, at September 30, 2020.

EARNINGS PER SHARE RECONCILIATION
Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing income allocated to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The computation of diluted earnings per common share considers the number of shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options. Antidilutive common shares are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, shares deemed to be antidilutive, and thus excluded from the computation of earnings per common share, were 517,000 and 361,000, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, shares deemed to be antidilutive, and thus excluded from the computation of earnings per common share, were 240,000 and 184,000, respectively.
The table below shows earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share, and reconciles the numerator and denominator of both earnings per common share calculations.

FAIR VALUE INFORMATION
Fair Value Hierarchy
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
The following disclosure provides the fair value information for financial assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2020. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels (Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3).
 
 
·
 
Level
 1
— Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.
 
 
·
 
Level
 2
— Observable inputs other than Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs or model-derived valuations that can be corroborated by observable market data, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
 
 
·
 
Level
 3
— Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. These valuation methodologies generally include pricing models, discounted cash flow models, or a determination of fair value that requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a
Non-Recurring
Basis
We may be required to measure certain assets at fair value on a
non-recurring
basis in accordance with GAAP. These adjustments to fair value usually result from application of lower of cost or fair value accounting or impairment write-downs of individual assets.
For assets measured at fair value on a
non-recurring
basis that were held on the balance sheet at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, the following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related assets that had losses during the period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following disclosure presents estimated fair value of our financial instruments. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented below are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company may realize in a current market exchange as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Bank is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations and utilizes interest rate swap agreements (“swaps”) as part of its asset/liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank has entered into 133 interest-rate swap agreements with customers with a notional amount totaling $455.2 million. The Bank then entered into identical offsetting swaps with a counterparty. The swap agreements are not designated as hedging instruments. The purpose of entering into offsetting derivatives not designated as a hedging instrument is to provide the Bank a variable-rate loan receivable and to provide the customer the financial effects of a fixed-rate loan without creating significant volatility in the Bank’s earnings.
The structure of the swaps is as follows. The Bank enters into an interest rate swap with its customers in which the Bank pays the customer a variable rate and the customer pays the Bank a fixed rate, therefore allowing customers to convert variable rate loans to fixed rate loans. At the same time, the Bank enters into a swap with the counterparty bank in which the Bank pays the counterparty a fixed rate and the counterparty in return pays the Bank a variable rate. The net effect of the transaction allows the Bank to receive interest on the loan from the customer at a variable rate based on LIBOR plus a spread. The changes in the fair value of the swaps primarily offset each other and therefore should not have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, although the Company does incur credit and counterparty risk with respect to performance on the swap agreements by the Bank’s customer and counterparty, respectively. As a result of the Bank exceeding $10 billion in assets, federal regulations required the Bank, beginning in January 2019, to clear most interest rate swaps through a clearing house (“centrally cleared”). These instruments contain language outlining collateral pledging requirements for each counterparty, in which collateral must be posted if market value exceeds certain agreed upon threshold limits. Cash or securities are pledged as collateral. Our interest rate swap derivatives are subject to a master netting arrangement with our counterparties. None of our derivative assets and liabilities are offset in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.
We believe our risk of loss associated with our counterparty borrowers related to interest rate swaps is mitigated as the loans with swaps are underwritten to take into account potential additional exposure, although there can be no assurances in this regard since the performance of our swaps is subject to market and counterparty risk.
Balance Sheet Classification of Derivative Financial Instruments
As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total notional amount of the Company’s swaps was $455.2 million, and $260.0 million, respectively. The location of the asset and liability, and their respective fair values, are summarized in the tables below.

BALANCE SHEET OFFSETTING
Assets and liabilities relating to certain financial instruments, including, derivatives and securities sold under repurchase agreements (“repurchase agreements”), may be eligible for offset in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as permitted under accounting guidance. As noted above, our interest rate swap derivatives are subject to master netting arrangements. Our interest rate swap derivatives require the Company to pledge investment securities as collateral based on certain risk thresholds. Investment securities that have been pledged by the Company to counterparties continue to be reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets unless the Company defaults. We offer a repurchase agreement product to our customers, which include master netting agreements that allow for the netting of collateral positions. This product, known as Citizens Sweep Manager, sells certain of our securities overnight to our customers under an agreement to repurchase them the next day. The repurchase agreements are not offset in the Company’s condensed consolidated balances.

LEASES
The Company’s operating leases, where the Company is a lessee, include real estate, such as office space and banking centers. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and is reflected in the consolidated statement of earnings.
Right-of-use
(“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.
While the Company has, as a lessor, certain equipment finance leases, such leases are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The tables below present the components of lease costs and supplemental information related to leases as of and for the periods presented.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion provides information about the results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources of CVB Financial Corp. (referred to herein on an unconsolidated basis as “CVB” and on a consolidated basis as “we,” “our” or the “Company”) and its wholly owned bank subsidiary, Citizens Business Bank (the “Bank” or “CBB”). This information is intended to facilitate the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to our financial condition and the results of our operations. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes presented elsewhere in this report.
IMPACT OF
COVID-19
The spread of
COVID-19
has created a global public health crisis that has resulted in unprecedented volatility and disruption in financial markets and deterioration in economic activity and market conditions in the markets we serve. The pandemic has already affected our customers and the communities we serve and depending on the duration of the crisis, the adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations could be significant. In response to the anticipated effects of the pandemic on the U.S. economy, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRB”) has taken significant actions, including a reduction in the target range of the federal funds rate to 0.0% to 0.25% and an indeterminate amount of purchases of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law. It contains substantial tax and spending provisions intended to address the impact of the
COVID-19
pandemic. The CARES Act includes the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), a $349 billion program designed to aid small- and
medium-sized
businesses through 100% SBA guaranteed loans distributed through banks. These loans were intended to guarantee 24 weeks of payroll and other costs to help those businesses remain viable and keep their workers employed. The SBA exhausted the initial funding for this program on April 15, 2020, but legislation passed on April 24, 2020 to provide additional PPP funds of $310 billion. We originated and funded about 4,100 loans, totaling approximately $1.10 billion, as of September 30, 2020. In response to the
COVID-19
pandemic, we have also implemented a short-term loan modification program to provide temporary payment relief to certain of our borrowers who meet the program’s qualifications. This program allows for a deferral of payments for 90 days. The deferred payments along with interest accrued during the deferral period are due and payable on the maturity date of the existing loan. As of October 9, 2020, we have remaining temporary payment deferments of principal, interest or of principal and interest in response to the CARES Act for 33 loans totaling $68.6 million. These deferments were primarily for 90 days, with 89% of these loans being pass rated. Of these loans, 27 have received a second deferment and the remaining six loans are first deferments.
The third quarter of 2020 did not include a provision for credit losses, as the economic outlook is generally consistent with the forecast from the prior quarter end. In comparison, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $23.5 million in the first half of 2020, including $11.5 million in the second quarter. We continue to monitor the impact of
COVID-19
closely, as well as any effects that may result from the CARES Act. The extent to which the
COVID-19
pandemic will impact our operations and financial results during the fourth quarter of 2020 is highly uncertain, but we may experience increased provision for credit losses if this pandemic results in economic stress greater than forecasted on our borrowers and loan portfolios and lower interest income if the current low interest rate environment continues.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The discussion and analysis of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based upon the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and are essential to understanding Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The following is a summary of the more judgmental and complex accounting estimates and principles. In each area, we have identified the variables we believe are most important in our estimation process. We utilize information available to us to make the necessary estimates to value the related assets and liabilities. Actual performance that differs from our estimates and future changes in the key variables and information could change future valuations and impact the results of operations.

Our significant accounting policies are described in greater detail in our 2019 Annual Report on Form

in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Note 3 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
, included in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019, which are essential to understanding Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Adoption of Allowance for Credit Losses
We adopted ASU
2016-13,
commonly referred to as Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”), which replaces the “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model over the life of the loan, effective on January 1, 2020. We adopted the guidance using a modified retrospective approach, as required, and have not adjusted prior period comparative information and will continue to disclose prior period financial information in accordance with the previous accounting guidance. The adoption of ASU
2016-13,
resulted in a reduction to our opening retained earnings of approximately $1.3 million. The ACL policy is described more fully in Note 3 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform: Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in this update provide temporary, optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for transitioning away from reference rates such as LIBOR. The amendments provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments primarily include relief related to contract modifications and hedging relationships, as well as providing a

OVERVIEW
For the third quarter of 2020, we reported net earnings of $47.5 million, compared with $41.6 million for the second quarter of 2020 and $50.4 million for the third quarter of 2019. Diluted earnings per share were $0.35 for the third quarter, compared to $0.31 for the prior quarter and $0.36 for the same period last year.
No provision for credit losses was recorded for the third quarter of 2020. The Company’s economic forecast of macro-economic variables was generally consistent with the forecast at the end of the second quarter. A $23.5 million provision for credit losses was recorded in the first half of 2020, due to the economic disruption and forecasted impact resulting from
COVID-19.
In comparison to the prior year, a $1.5 million loan loss provision was incurred for the third quarter of 2019. During the third quarter of 2020, we experienced minimal credit charge-offs of $231,000 and total recoveries of $117,000, resulting in net charge-offs of $114,000. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company originated, under the SBA Paycheck Protection Program, approximately 4,100 loans, of which $1.10 billion was outstanding at September 30, 2020. Interest and fee income from PPP loans increased from approximately $8.5 million in the second quarter of 2020, to $9.5 million in the third quarter of 2020.
At September 30, 2020, total assets of $13.82 billion increased $2.54 billion, or 22.48%, from total assets of $11.28 billion at December 31, 2019. Interest-earning assets of $12.59 billion at September 30, 2020 increased $2.57 billion, or 25.59%, when compared with $10.03 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in interest-earning assets was primarily due to a $1.31 billion increase in interest-earning balances due from the Federal Reserve, an $843.3 million increase in total loans, and a $368.6 million increase in investment securities. Excluding PPP loans, total loans declined by $257.8 million from December 31, 2019.
Total investment securities were $2.78 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $368.6 million, or 15.27%, from $2.41 billion at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020, investment securities
held-to-maturity
(“HTM”) totaled $577.7 million. At September 30, 2020, investment securities
available-for-sale
(“AFS”) totaled $2.21 billion, inclusive of a net
pre-tax
unrealized gain of $55.3 million, an increase of $33.4 million from December 31, 2019. HTM securities declined by $96.8 million, or 14.35%, and AFS securities increased by $465.4 million, or 26.74%, from December 31, 2019. Our tax equivalent yield on investments was 1.99% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 2.22% for the second quarter of 2020 and 2.47% for the third quarter of 2019.
Total loans and leases, net of deferred fees and discounts, of $8.41 billion at September 30, 2020 increased by $843.3 million, or 11.15%, from December 31, 2019. The increase in total loans included $1.10 billion in PPP loans and a $130.9 million decline in dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans primarily due to seasonal pay downs, which historically occur in the first quarter of each calendar year. Excluding PPP loans and dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans, total loans declined by $126.9 million, or 1.77%. The $126.9 million decrease in loans included decreases of $118.1 million in commercial and industrial loans, $27.3 million in consumer and other loans, $15.1 million in municipal lease financings, $15.0 million in construction loans, and $8.7 million in SFR mortgage loans. Partially offsetting these declines was an increase in commercial real estate loans of $53.6 million. Our yield on loans was 4.47% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 4.77% for the second quarter of 2020 and 5.23% for the third quarter of 2019. This decline was primarily due to the impact of the Federal Reserve’s rate decreases and the decline in discount accretion income for acquired loans. Interest income for yield adjustments related to discount accretion on acquired loans was $4.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 and $7.2 million for the third quarter of 2019.
Noninterest-bearing deposits were $6.92 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $1.67 billion, or 31.91%, when compared to December 31, 2019. The significant deposit growth in the first nine months of 2020 was primarily due to our customers maintaining greater liquidity. At September 30, 2020, noninterest-bearing deposits were 61.95% of total deposits, compared to 60.26% at December 31, 2019. Our average cost of total deposits was 0.11% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 0.12% for the second quarter of 2020 and 0.21% for the third quarter of 2019.
Customer repurchase agreements totaled $483.4 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $428.7 million at December 31, 2019. Our average cost of total deposits including customer repurchase agreements was 0.11% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 0.12% for the second quarter of 2020 and 0.22% for the third quarter of 2019.
At September 30, 2020, we had $10.0 million in short-term borrowings with 0% cost, compared to no borrowings at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019. At September 30, 2020, we had $25.8 million of junior subordinated debentures, unchanged from December 31, 2019. Our average cost of funds was 0.11% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, 0.13% for the second quarter of 2020, and 0.23% for the third quarter of 2019.

The allowance for credit losses totaled $93.9 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $68.7 million at December 31, 2019. Due to the adoption of CECL, effective on January 1, 2020, a transition adjustment of $1.8 million was added to the beginning balance of the allowance and was increased by $23.5 million in provision for credit losses in the first nine months of 2020 due to the severe economic disruption forecasted to result from the
COVID-19
pandemic. At September 30, 2020, ACL as a percentage of total loans and leases outstanding was 1.12%, or 1.28% when PPP loans are excluded. This compares to 0.91% at December 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2020, total discounts on acquired loans were $35.2 million.
The Company’s total equity was $1.98 billion at September 30, 2020. This represented a decrease of $12.1 million, or 0.61%, from total equity of $1.99 billion at December 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to repurchase of common stock of $91.7 million under our
10b5-1
stock repurchase program, and $73.3 million in cash dividends, offset by net earnings of $127.1 million and a $23.5 million increase in other comprehensive income resulting from the tax effected impact of the increase in market value of our
available-for-sale
investment securities portfolio. Our tangible common equity ratio was 9.8% at September 30, 2020.
Our capital ratios under the revised capital framework referred to as Basel III remain well-above regulatory requirements. As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s Tier 1 leverage capital ratio totaled 9.88%, our common equity Tier 1 ratio totaled 14.60%, our Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio totaled 14.89%, and our total risk-based capital ratio totaled 16.08%. We did not elect to phase in the impact of CECL on regulatory capital, as allowed under the interim final rule of the FDIC and other U.S. banking agencies. Refer to our

Tax effected at respective statutory rates.
Net Interest Income
The principal component of our earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments (interest-earning assets) and the interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds (interest-bearing liabilities). Net interest margin is net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets for the period. The level of interest rates and the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities impact net interest income and net interest margin. The net interest spread is the yield on average interest-earning assets minus the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin and net interest spread are included on a tax equivalent (TE) basis by adjusting interest income utilizing the federal statutory tax rates of 21% in effect for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Our net interest income, interest spread, and net interest margin are sensitive to general business and economic conditions. These conditions include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, monetary supply, and the strength of the international, national and state economies, in general, and more specifically, the local economies in which we conduct business. Our ability to manage net interest income during changing interest rate environments will have a significant impact on our overall performance. We manage net interest income through affecting changes in the mix of interest-earning assets as well as the mix of interest-bearing liabilities, changes in the level of interest-bearing liabilities in proportion to interest-earning assets, and in the growth and maturity of earning assets. See Item 2 –
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Asset/Liability and Market Risk Management – Interest Rate Sensitivity Management
included herein.

Table of Contents
The following table presents a comparison of interest income and interest expense resulting from changes in the volumes and rates on average interest-earning assets and average interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated. Changes in interest income or expense attributable to volume changes are calculated by multiplying the change in volume by the initial average interest rate. The change in interest income or expense attributable to changes in interest rates is calculated by multiplying the change in interest rate by the initial volume. The changes attributable to interest rate and volume changes are calculated by multiplying the change in rate times the change in volume.

Third Quarter of 2020 Compared to the Third Quarter of 2019
Net interest income, before provision for credit losses, of $103.3 million for the third quarter of 2020 decreased $4.8 million, or 4.47%, compared to $108.2 million for the third quarter of 2019. Interest-earning assets increased on average by $2.55 billion, or 25.65%, from $9.94 billion for the third quarter of 2019 to $12.50 billion for the third quarter of 2020. Our net interest margin (TE) was 3.34% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 4.34% for the third quarter of 2019.
Interest income for the third quarter of 2020 was $106.6 million, which represented a $6.9 million, or 6.11%, decrease when compared to the same period of 2019. Average interest-earning assets increased to $12.50 billion and the average interest-earning asset yield of 3.45%, compared to 4.55% for the third quarter of 2019. The 110 basis point decrease in the interest-earning asset yield over the third quarter of 2019 was primarily due to a combination of a 76 basis point decrease in loan yields, a 48 basis point decrease in investment yields and a change in mix of earning assets with average balances at the Federal Reserve growing to 11.62% of earning assets for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 1.69% for the third quarter of 2019. The increase in balances at the Federal Reserve resulted from $2.22 billion in average deposit growth during the third quarter of 2020.
Interest income and fees on loans for the third quarter of 2020 of $94.2 million decreased $4.6 million, or 4.65%, when compared to the third quarter of 2019. Average loans increased $887.0 million for the third quarter of 2020 when compared with the same period of 2019, primarily due to $1.10 billion in average PPP loans originated in the second quarter of 2020. The PPP loans we originated resulted in the recognition of approximately $9.5 million in loan interest and fee income in the third quarter of 2020. Discount accretion on acquired loans decreased by $2.9 million compared to the third quarter of 2019. The Federal Reserve lowered short-term interest rates by 175 basis points when compared to the end of the third quarter of 2019. The significant decline in interest rates over the past four quarters had a negative impact on loan yields, which after excluding discount accretion, nonaccrual interest income, and the impact from PPP loans, declined by 44 basis points from the third quarter of 2019.
Interest income from investment securities was $11.8 million for the third quarter of 2020, a $1.7 million, or 12.56%, decrease from $13.5 million for the third quarter of 2019. This decrease was primarily the result of a 47 basis point decline in the non
tax-equivalent
yield on investments as the decline in interest rates over the past four quarters decreased yields on investment securities. Partially offsetting the decline from lower rates was a $344.1 million increase in average investment securities for the third quarter of 2020, compared to the same period of 2019.
Interest expense of $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2020, decreased $2.1 million, or 38.92%, compared to the third quarter of 2019. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities declined to 0.28% for the third quarter of 2020 from 0.55% for the third quarter of 2019. On average, noninterest-bearing deposits were 61.67% of our total deposits for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 60.14% for the third quarter of 2019. In comparison to the third quarter of 2019, our overall cost of funds decreased by 12 basis points, as average noninterest-bearing deposits grew by $1.50 billion. Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $720.0 million compared to the third quarter of 2019, while the cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased by 25 basis points.    
Nine Months of 2020 Compared to the Nine Months of 2019
Net interest income, before provision for credit losses, was $310.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of $18.6 million, or 5.64%, compared to $328.8 million for the same period of 2019. Interest-earning assets increased on average by $1.33 billion, or 13.26%, from $10.01 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $11.34 billion for the current year. Our net interest margin (TE) was 3.68% during the first nine months of 2020, compared to 4.41% for the same period of 2019.
Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $321.7 million, which represented a $23.9 million, or 6.93%, decrease when compared to the same period of 2019. Compared to the first nine months of 2019, average interest-earning assets increased by $1.33 billion primarily due to PPP loans, and the yield on interest-earning assets decreased by 81 basis points. The 81 basis point decrease in the earning asset yield over the first nine months of 2020, resulted from a 58 basis point decrease in loan yields from 5.30% for first nine months of 2019 to 4.72% for the same period of 2020, and a 31 basis point decline in investment yields, as well as a change in the mix of earning assets resulting from an $852.6 million increase in average balances at the Federal Reserve. Average loans as a percentage of earning assets declined from 75.63% for the first nine months of 2019 to 70.31% for the first nine months of 2020. Conversely, average balances at the Federal Reserve grew as a percentage of earning assets from 0.64% in the prior year to 8.09% for the first nine months of 2020.

Interest income and fees on loans for the first nine months of 2020 of $281.7 million decreased $18.7 million, or 6.21%, when compared to the same period of 2019. Average loans increased $400.7 million for the first nine months of 2020 when compared with the same period of 2019, primarily due to $591.4 million in average PPP loans. The PPP loans we originated resulted in approximately $13.5 million in fee income and $4.5 million in loan interest during the first nine months of 2020. The first nine months of 2020 reflected a $9.3 million decrease in discount accretion on acquired loans and nonaccrual interest income when compared to the same period of 2019. Loan yields decreased by 58 basis points from the prior nine month period. Excluding the impact of PPP loans, interest income related to purchase discount accretion and nonaccrual interest income, loan yields were 33 basis points lower than the first nine months of 2019. This decline in loan yields was primarily due to lower rates on loans indexed to variable interest rates such as the Bank’s prime rate.
Interest income from investment securities was $38.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a $5.3 million decrease from $43.2 million for the first nine months of 2019. This decrease was the net result of a 29 basis point decline in the non
tax-equivalent
yield on securities, compared to the first nine months of 2019, partially offset by a $50.0 million increase in the average investment securities for the first nine months of 2020.
Interest expense of $11.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, decreased by $5.4 million from the same period of 2019. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 20 basis points, to 0.35% for the first nine months of 2020, from 0.55% for the same period of 2019. The rate on interest-bearing deposits for the first nine months of 2020 decreased by 12 basis points from the same period in 2019. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $232.1 million higher for the first nine months of 2020 when compared with the same period of 2019. Average interest-bearing deposits grew by $300.1 million when compared to the first nine months of 2019. Average noninterest-bearing deposits represented 61.20% of our total deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 59.17% for the same period of 2019. Total cost of funds for the first nine months of 2020 was 0.15%, compared with 0.24% for the same period of 2019.
Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses is a charge to earnings to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level consistent with management’s assessment of expected lifetime losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. On January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU
2016-13,
commonly referred to as CECL, which replaces the “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model over the life of the loan.
The allowance for credit losses on loans totaled $93.9 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $68.7 million at December 31, 2019 and $68.7 million as of September 30, 2019. Upon adoption of CECL, a transition adjustment of $1.8 million was added to the beginning balance of the allowance, with no impact on the consolidated statement of earnings, and was increased by $23.5 million in provision for credit losses in the first nine months of 2020 due to the severe economic disruption forecasted as a result of the
COVID-19
pandemic. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we experienced minimal credit charge-offs of $484,000 and total recoveries of $353,000, resulting in net charge-offs of $131,000. This compares to a $5.0 million loan loss provision and net recoveries of $59,000 for the same period of 2019. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to total loans and leases outstanding, net of deferred fees and discount, as of September 30, 2020, was 1.12%, or 1.28% when PPP loans are excluded. This compares to 0.91% and 0.92%, as of December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, respectively. As of September 30, 2020, remaining discounts on acquired loans were $35.2 million. Refer to the discussion of “Allowance for Credit Losses” in Item 2 –
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
contained herein for discussion concerning observed changes in the credit quality of various components of our loan portfolio as well as changes and refinements to our methodology.
No assurance can be given that economic conditions which adversely affect the Company’s service areas or other circumstances will or will not be reflected in increased provisions for credit losses in the future, as the nature of this process requires considerable judgment. We may experience increases in the provision for credit losses, in future periods, due to further deterioration in economic conditions from the
COVID-19
pandemic. See “Allowance for Credit Losses” under
Analysis of Financial Condition
herein.

Third Quarter of 2020 Compared to the Third Quarter of 2019
The $1.3 million increase in noninterest income was primarily due to a $1.7 million net gain on the sale of one of our bank owned buildings, related to a banking center that was closed in September in the third quarter of 2020.
The Bank enters into interest rate swap agreements with our customers to manage our interest rate risk and enters into identical offsetting swaps with a counterparty. The changes in the fair value of the swaps primarily offset each other resulting in swap fee income (refer to Note 8 –
Derivative Financial Instruments
of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of this report for additional information). The third quarter of 2020 included higher swap fee income of $1.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2019, due to higher volume of swap transactions. We executed on swap agreements related to new loan originations with a notional amount totaling $73.2 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $19.0 million for the third quarter of 2019.
Service charges on deposit accounts decreased by $863,000 from the third quarter of 2019. This decrease was primarily due to the increase in noninterest-bearing deposits held at the Bank by our customers, which earn credits toward the fees associated with the products and services utilized by our business customers.
CitizensTrust consists of Wealth Management and Investment Services income. The Wealth Management group provides a variety of services, which include asset management, financial planning, estate planning, retirement planning, private and corporate trustee services, and probate services. Investment Services provides self-directed brokerage, 401(k) plans, mutual funds, insurance and other
non-insured
investment products. At September 30, 2020, CitizensTrust had approximately $2.91 billion in assets under management and administration, including $2.08 billion in assets under management. CitizensTrust generated fees of $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2019.
The Bank’s investment in BOLI includes life insurance policies acquired through acquisitions and the purchase of life insurance by the Bank on a select group of employees. The Bank is the owner and beneficiary of these policies. BOLI is recorded as an asset at its cash surrender value. Increases in the cash value of these policies, as well as insurance proceeds received, are recorded in noninterest income and are not subject to income tax, as long as they are held for the life of the covered parties. Income from BOLI declined by $328,000 compared to the third quarter of 2019.

Nine Months of 2020 Compared to the Nine Months of 2019
The $9.5 million decrease in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was primarily due to a $5.7 million net gain from the legal settlement of an eminent condemnation of one of our business financial center buildings in Bakersfield during the first nine month of 2019. In addition, there was a $2.9 million decrease in net gains on sale of bank owned buildings between the first nine months of 2020 and the first nine months of 2019. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased by $2.5 million from the first nine months of 2019. This decrease was primarily due to the higher earnings credits generated by the significant increase in our customer’s noninterest-bearing deposits held at the Bank. In addition, bankcard services decreased by approximately $1.2 million when compared to 2019, primarily due to the Durbin Amendment’s cap on debit card interchange fees. Swap fee income increased $3.0 million compared to the third quarter of 2019, due to higher volume of swap transactions. The $729,000 increase in BOLI income included $1.2 million of death benefits included in our BOLI policies for the first nine months of 2020. The $1.2 million decrease in other income in the first nine months of 2020 included decreases in dividend income from various equity investments, other banking fee income and SBA servicing income when compared to the same period of 2019.

Noninterest expense divided by net interest income before provision for credit losses plus noninterest income.
Third Quarter of 2020 Compared to the Third Quarter of 2019
Our ability to control noninterest expenses in relation to asset growth can be measured in terms of total noninterest expenses as a percentage of average assets. Noninterest expense as a percentage of average assets was 1.44% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 1.68% for the third quarter of 2019. This decline mostly reflects the $2.51 billion growth in average assets that resulted primarily from $2.22 billion in average deposit growth.
Our ability to control noninterest expenses in relation to the level of total revenue (net interest income before provision for credit losses plus noninterest income) can be measured by the efficiency ratio and indicates the percentage of net revenue that is used to cover expenses. The efficiency ratio was 42.57% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 39.60% for the third quarter of 2019.

Table of Contents
Noninterest expense of $49.6 million for the third quarter of 2020 was $2.1 million, or 4.32%, higher than the third quarter of 2019. There were no merger related expenses related to the Community Bank (“CB”) acquisition for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $244,000 for the third quarter of 2019. The $912,000 increase in salary expense from the prior year was primarily due to $1.1 million in additional bonus expense for “Thank You Awards” paid to all Bank employees during the third quarter of 2020. The third quarter of 2020 also reflected an $833,000 increase in regulatory assessments resulting from final application of assessment credits provided by the FDIC at the end of the second quarter of 2020 and a $700,000 write-down of one OREO property. These increases were partially offset by a $789,000 decrease in marketing and promotion expense.
Nine Months of 2020 Compared to the Nine Months of 2019
Noninterest expense of $144.6 million for the first nine months of 2020 was $5.0 million lower than the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to $6.0 million in merger related expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to no merger related expense for the same period of 2020. The year-over-year decrease also included a $1.2 million decrease in amortization of CDI. These decreases were partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in salaries and benefit costs. Salary and benefit expense would have increased by $3.9 million, or approximately 4%, when a $1.6 million increase in net deferred loan costs, primarily related to the origination of PPP loans, is excluded for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This $3.9 million increase was primarily due to $3.0 million, or 3.93%, in higher salaries, payroll taxes and benefits when compared to the prior year period. As a percentage of average assets, noninterest expense was 1.54% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 1.77% for the same period of 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the efficiency ratio was 41.66%, compared to 39.89% for the same period of 2019.
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 29.00%, compared to 29.00% for the same periods of 2019. Our estimated annual effective tax rate varies depending upon the level of
tax-advantaged
income as well as available tax credits.
The Company’s effective tax rates are below the nominal combined Federal and State tax rate primarily as a result of
tax-advantaged
income from certain municipal security investments, municipal loans and leases and BOLI, as well as available tax credits for each period.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets of $13.82 billion at September 30, 2020 increased $2.54 billion, or 22.48%, from total assets of $11.28 billion at December 31, 2019. Interest-earning assets totaled $12.59 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $2.57 billion, or 25.59%, when compared with $10.03 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in interest-earning assets was primarily due to a $1.31 billion increase in interest-earning balances due from the Federal Reserve, an $843.3 million increase in total loans, and a $368.6 million increase in investment securities. The increase in total loans was due to the origination of approximately 4,100 PPP loans, totaling $1.10 billion at September 30, 2020. Excluding PPP loans, total loans declined by $257.8 million from December 31, 2019.
Total liabilities were $11.84 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $2.55 billion, or 27.44%, from total liabilities of $9.29 billion at December 31, 2019. Total deposits grew by $2.46 billion, or 28.30%. This significant deposit growth in the first nine months of 2020 was primarily due to our customers maintaining greater liquidity. Total equity decreased $12.1 million, or 0.61%, to $1.98 billion at September 30, 2020, compared to total equity of $1.99 billion at December 31, 2019. The $12.1 million decrease in equity was primarily due to the repurchase of 4.9 million shares of common stock for $91.7 million under our
10b5-1
stock repurchase program. We previously announced that we suspended this
10b5-1
stock repurchase program due to the Company’s outlook due to the uncertainty of the
COVID-19
pandemic. We had $127.1 million in net earnings during the first nine months of 2020, offset by $73.3 million in cash dividends declared and a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings of $1.3 million, net of tax, due to the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020. Our equity also increased by $23.5 million as a result of an increase in other comprehensive income from the increase in our tax adjusted market value of our
available-for-sale
investment securities.
Investment Securities
The Company maintains a portfolio of investment securities to provide interest income and to serve as a source of liquidity for its ongoing operations. At September 30, 2020, total investment securities were $2.78 billion. This represented an increase of $368.6 million, or 15.27%, from total investment securities of $2.41 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in investment securities was primarily due to new securities purchased exceeding cash outflow from the portfolio in the first nine months of 2020. At September 30, 2020, investment securities HTM totaled $577.7 million. At September 30, 2020, our AFS investment securities totaled $2.21 billion, inclusive of a
pre-tax
net unrealized gain of $55.3 million. The
after-tax
unrealized gain reported in AOCI on AFS investment securities was $38.9 million. The changes in the net unrealized holding gain resulted primarily from fluctuations in market interest rates. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, repayments/maturities of investment securities totaled $536.7 million and $355.8 million, respectively. The Company purchased additional investment securities totaling $882.1 million and $268.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. There were no investment securities sold during the first nine months of 2020. During the first nine months of 2019, we sold 14 investment securities at book value of approximately $152.6 million. The average duration of our investment securities portfolio was approximately 2.7 years at September 30, 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, approximately $66.7 million in U.S. government agency bonds are callable. The Agency CMO/REMIC securities are backed by agency-pooled collateral. Municipal bonds, which represented approximately 7% of the total investment portfolio, are predominately AA or higher rated securities.
We adopted ASU
2016-13
on January 1, 2020, on a prospective basis. Under the new guidance, once it is determined that a credit loss has occurred, an allowance for credit losses is established on our
available-for-sale
and
held-to-maturity
securities. Prior to adoption of this standard, when a decline in fair value of a debt security was determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge for the credit component was recorded, and a new cost basis in the investment was established. During the third quarter of 2020, management determined that credit losses did not exist for securities in an unrealized loss position.

The table below presents the Company’s investment securities’ gross unrealized losses and fair value by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at December 31, 2019, prior to adoption of ASU
2016-13.
Management previously reviewed individual securities to determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other-than-temporary. The unrealized losses on these securities were primarily attributed to changes in interest rates. The issuers of these securities have not, to our knowledge, evidenced any cause for default on these securities. These securities have fluctuated in value since their purchase dates as market interest rates have fluctuated. However, we have the ability and the intention to hold these securities until their fair values recover to cost or maturity. As such, management does not deem these securities to be other-than-temporarily-impaired.

Loans
Total loans and leases, net of deferred fees and discounts, of $8.41 billion at September 30, 2020 increased by $843.3 million, or 11.15%, from $7.56 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in total loans included $1.10 billion in PPP loans and a $130.9 million decline in dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans primarily due to seasonal pay downs, which historically occur in the first quarter of each calendar year. Excluding PPP loans and dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans, total loans declined by $126.9 million, or 1.77%. The $126.9 million decrease in loans included decreases of $118.1 million in commercial and industrial loans, $27.3 million in consumer and other loans, $15.1 million in municipal lease financings, $15.0 million in construction loans, and $8.7 million in SFR mortgage loans. Partially offsetting these declines was an increase in commercial real estate loans of $53.6 million.

Beginning with March 31, 2020, total loans are presented net of deferred loan fees by respective class of financing receivables.
As of September 30, 2020, 69.04% of the Company’s total gross loan portfolio consisted of real estate loans, with commercial real estate loans representing 64.56% of total loans. As of September 30, 2020, $271.2 million, or 5.00% of the total commercial real estate loans included loans secured by farmland, compared to $241.8 million, or 4.50%, at December 31, 2019. The loans secured by farmland included $121.1 million for loans secured by dairy & livestock land and $150.2 million for loans secured by agricultural land at September 30, 2020, compared to $125.9 million for loans secured by dairy & livestock land and $115.9 million for loans secured by agricultural land at December 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2020, dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans of $252.8 million were comprised of $210.4 million for dairy & livestock loans and $42.4 million for agribusiness loans, compared to $323.5 million for dairy & livestock loans and $60.2 million for agribusiness loans at December 31, 2019.
Real estate loans are loans secured by conforming trust deeds on real property, including property under construction, land development, commercial property and single-family and multi-family residences. Our real estate loans are comprised of industrial, office, retail, medical, single-family residences, multi-family residences, and farmland. Consumer loans include installment loans to consumers as well as home equity loans, auto and equipment leases and other loans secured by junior liens on real property. Municipal lease finance receivables are leases to municipalities. Dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans are loans to finance the operating needs of wholesale dairy farm operations, cattle feeders, livestock raisers and farmers.
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $185.5 million of total SBA 504 loans. SBA 504 loans include term loans to finance capital expenditures and for the purchase of commercial real estate. Initially the Bank provides two separate loans to the borrower representing a first and second lien on the collateral. The loan with the first lien is typically at a 50% advance to the acquisition costs and the second lien loan provides the financing for 40% of the acquisition costs with the borrower’s down payment of 10% of the acquisition costs. The Bank retains the first lien loan for its term and sells the second lien loan to the SBA subordinated debenture program. A majority of the Bank’s 504 loans are granted for the purpose of commercial real estate acquisition. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $119.5 million of total SBA 7(a) loans that include a guarantee of payment from the SBA (typically 75% of the loan amount, but up to 90% in certain cases) in the event of default. The SBA 7(a) loans include revolving lines of credit (SBA Express) and term loans of up to ten (10) years to finance long-term working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and/or for the purchase or refinance of commercial real estate.

The pandemic has had a greater impact on certain industries, such a retail, hospitality, and entertainment.
At September 30, 2020, commercial real estate loans on retail properties comprised $771.1 million and approximately 9% of total loans; 1% of these loans are on deferment and $7 million of these loans are classified. At origination, these loans on retail properties were underwritten with

Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”)
Total TDRs were $2.2 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $3.4 million at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020, all of our TDRs were performing and accruing interest as restructured loans. Our performing TDRs were generally provided a modification of loan repayment terms in response to borrower financial difficulties. The performing restructured loans represent the only loans accruing interest at each respective reporting date. A performing restructured loan is categorized as such if we believe that it is reasonably assured of repayment and is performing in accordance with the modified terms.
In accordance with regulatory guidance, if borrowers are less than 30 days past due on their loans and enter into loan modifications offered as a result of
COVID-19,
their loans generally continue to be considered performing loans and continue to accrue interest during the period of the loan modification. For borrowers who are 30 days or more past due when entering into loan modifications offered as a result of
COVID-19,
we evaluate the loan modifications under our existing troubled debt restructuring framework, and where such a loan modification would result in a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the loan will be accounted for as a TDR and will generally not accrue interest. For all borrowers who enroll in these loan modification programs offered as a result of
COVID-19,
the delinquency status of the borrowers is frozen, resulting in a static delinquency metric during the deferral period. Upon exiting the deferral program, the measurement of loan delinquency will resume where it had left off upon entry into the program. As of October 9, 2020, we have temporary payment deferments of principal, interest or of principal and interest on 33 loans in the amount of $68.6 million, or less than 1% of our total loan portfolio, at September 30, 2020. These deferments were primarily for 90 days, with 89% of these loans being pass rated; 27 of these loans have received a second deferment and the remaining six loans are first deferments. The majority of the loans with payment deferments were commercial real estate loans, which represented approximately $65.9 million of the $68.6 million.

At September 30, 2020, there was no ACL allocated to TDRs. At December 31, 2019, there was no allowance for loan losses specifically allocated to TDRs. Impairment amounts identified are typically charged off against the allowance at the time a probable loss is determined. There were no charge-offs on TDRs for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $78,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

As of June 30, 2020, nonperforming loans included $25,000 of commercial and industrial loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest.
Nonperforming loans, defined as nonaccrual loans, nonperforming TDR loans and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, were $11.8 million at September 30, 2020, or 0.14% of total loans. Total nonperforming loans at September 30, 2020 included $9.3 million of nonperforming loans acquired from CB in the third quarter of 2018. This compares to nonperforming loans of $5.3 million, or 0.07% of total loans, at December 31, 2019 and $6.6 million, or 0.09% of total loans, at September 30, 2019. The $5.0 million quarter-over-quarter increase in nonperforming loans was primarily due to increases of $3.9 million in nonperforming commercial real estate loans, $849,000 in nonperforming dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans, $600,000 in nonperforming commercial and industrial loans, and $126,000 in nonperforming SBA loans. This was partially offset by a $405,000 decrease in nonperforming SFR mortgage loans and a $65,000 decrease in nonperforming consumer and other loans.
In response to the
COVID-19
pandemic, we have implemented a short-term loan modification program to provide temporary payment relief to certain of our borrowers who meet the program’s qualifications. This program allows for a deferral of payments for 90 days, which we may extend for an additional 90 days, for a maximum of 180 days on a cumulative basis. The deferred payments along with interest accrued during the deferral period are due and payable on the maturity date of the existing loan.

At September 30, 2020, we had four OREO properties with a carrying value of $4.2 million, compared to four OREO properties with a carrying value of $4.9 million at December 31, 2019 and three OREO properties with a carrying value of $9.5 million at September 30, 2019. We reflected a $700,000 write-down of one OREO property in the third quarter of 2020. There were no additions to or sales of OREO properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Changes in economic and business conditions have had an impact on our market area and on our loan portfolio. We continually monitor these conditions in determining our estimates of needed reserves. However, we cannot predict the extent to which the deterioration in general economic conditions, real estate values, changes in general rates of interest and changes in the financial conditions or business of a borrower may adversely affect a specific borrower’s ability to pay or the value of our collateral. See “
Risk Management – Credit Risk Management

for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Allowance for Credit Losses
We adopted CECL on January 1, 2020, which replaces the “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model over the life of the loan, as further described in Note 3 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The allowance for credit losses totaled $93.9 million as of September 30, 2020, compared to $68.7 million as of December 31, 2019 and $68.7 million as of September 30, 2019. Our allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2020 was 1.12%, or 1.28% of total loans when excluding the $1.10 billion in PPP loans. Upon implementation of CECL, a transition adjustment of $1.8 million was added to the beginning balance of the allowance and was increased by a $23.5 million credit loss provision in the first nine months of 2020 due to the severe economic disruption resulting from the
COVID-19
pandemic. Net charge-offs were $131,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This compares to a $5.0 million loan loss provision and $59,000 in net recoveries for the same period of 2019.
Our modeling processes incorporate a lifetime historical loss rate methodology by different asset classes. These models use key loan attributes by asset class and macroeconomic variables. Macroeconomic variables include GDP, and unemployment rate, among others. Our economic forecast incorporates a weighting of multiple forecasts. The forecast includes a reasonable and supportable forecast period of two to three years for the macroeconomic variables, which revert to a historical mean based on an input reversion approach. We consider publicly published economic forecasts from multiple sources, including Moody’s. Our economic forecast continues to be a blend of multiple forecasts produced by Moody’s. Moody’s baseline forecast continues to represent more than a 50% weighting in our multi-weighted forecast scenario. This U.S. baseline forecast assumes GDP will increase by 27% in the third quarter, 2.9% in the fourth quarter and then grow by 3.5% in 2021 and 5% in 2022. The unemployment rate in this baseline forecast is forecasted to be 8.9% in the third quarter of 2021, stay at an elevated level over 8% through 2021, before declining to 6.4% percent in 2022. With California slowly
re-opening
its economy and currently having an unemployment rate greater than 11% percent, our forecast includes a partial weighting of downside economic forecast scenarios from Moody’s. If the economic forecast deteriorates further due to the
COVID-19
pandemic, or the economic impact on our borrowers is more severe than we have forecasted, we may experience increases in the allowance for credit losses in future periods.

The ACL/Total Loan Coverage Ratio as of September 30, 2020 increased to 1.12%, compared to 0.93% as of January 1, 2020 due to the forecasted impact on the economy from the
COVID-19
crisis.
At implementation of CECL on January 1, 2020, the reserve for unfunded loan commitments included a transition adjustment of $41,000 for our
off-balance
sheet credit exposures. The Bank’s ACL methodology also produced an allowance of $9.0 million for our
off-balance
sheet credit exposures, which was unchanged from the allowance at January 1, 2020.
While we believe that the allowance at September 30, 2020 was appropriate to absorb losses from known or inherent risks in the portfolio, no assurance can be given that economic conditions, interest rate fluctuations, conditions of our borrowers (including fraudulent activity), or natural disasters, which adversely affect our service areas or other circumstances or conditions, including those defined above, will not be reflected in increased provisions for credit losses in the future.
Deposits
The primary source of funds to support earning assets (loans and investments) is the generation of deposits.
Total deposits were $11.17 billion at September 30, 2020. This represented an increase of $2.46 billion, or 28.30%, over total deposits of $8.70 billion at December 31, 2019. The composition of deposits is summarized as of the dates presented in the table below.

The amount of noninterest-bearing deposits in relation to total deposits is an integral element in our strategy of seeking to achieve a low cost of funds. Noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $6.92 billion at September 30, 2020, representing an increase of $1.67 billion, or 31.91%, from noninterest-bearing deposits of $5.25 billion at December 31, 2019. Noninterest-bearing deposits represented 61.95% of total deposits for September 30, 2020, compared to 60.26% of total deposits for December 31, 2019.
Savings deposits, which include savings, interest-bearing demand, and money market accounts, totaled $3.80 billion at September 30, 2020, representing an increase of $791.2 million, or 26.26%, from savings deposits of $3.01 billion at December 31, 2019.
Time deposits totaled $445.1 million at September 30, 2020, representing a decrease of $1.2 million, or 0.26%, from total time deposits of $446.3 million for December 31, 2019.

Borrowings
We offer a repurchase agreement product to our customers. This product, known as Citizens Sweep Manager, sells our investment securities overnight to our customers under an agreement to repurchase them the next day at a price that reflects the market value of the use of funds by the Bank for the period concerned. These repurchase agreements are signed with customers who want to invest their excess deposits, above a
pre-determined
balance in a demand deposit account, in order to earn interest. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, total funds borrowed under these agreements were $483.4 million and $428.7 million, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 0.14% and 0.44%, respectively.
At September 30, 2020, we had $10.0 million in short-term borrowings that were interest-free advances from the FHLB. We had no short-term borrowings at December 31, 2019.
At September 30, 2020, $6.00 billion of loans and $1.86 billion of investment securities, at carrying value, were pledged to secure public deposits, short and long-term borrowings, and for other purposes as required or permitted by law.

Amounts exclude accrued interest.
Deposits represent noninterest-bearing, money market, savings, NOW, certificates of deposits, brokered and all other deposits held by the Bank.
Customer repurchase agreements represent excess amounts swept from customer demand deposit accounts, which mature the following business day and are collateralized by investment securities. These amounts are due to customers.
At September 30, 2020, we had $10.0 million in FHLB short-term borrowings with a cost of 0.0%, compared to zero at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019.
Junior subordinated debentures represent the amounts that are due from the Company to CVB Statutory Trust III. The debentures have the same maturity as the Trust Preferred Securities. These debentures bear interest at three-month LIBOR plus 1.38% and mature in 2036.
Deferred compensation represents the amounts that are due to former employees based on salary continuation agreements as a result of acquisitions and amounts due to current employees under our deferred compensation plans.
Operating leases represent the total minimum lease payments due under
non-cancelable
operating leases. Refer to Note 11 –

Total commitments to extend credit to agribusiness were $17.2 million at September 30, 2020.
As of September 30, 2020, we had commitments to extend credit of approximately $1.75 billion, and obligations under letters of credit of $48.8 million. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers, provided there is no violation of any material condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Commitments are generally variable rate, and many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon. As such, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We use the same credit underwriting policies in granting or accepting such commitments or contingent obligations as we do for
on-balance
sheet instruments, which consist of evaluating customers’ creditworthiness individually. Due to the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, a transition adjustment of $41,000 was added to the beginning balance of the reserve for unfunded loan commitments. The Company recorded no provision or recapture of provision for unfunded loan commitments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company had a reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $9.0 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 included in other liabilities.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the financial performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support private borrowing or purchase arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. When deemed necessary, we hold appropriate collateral supporting those commitments.
Capital Resources
Our primary source of capital has been the retention of operating earnings and issuance of common stock in connection with periodic acquisitions. In order to ensure adequate levels of capital, we conduct an ongoing assessment of projected sources, needs and uses of capital in conjunction with projected increases in assets and the level of risk. As part of this ongoing assessment, the Board of Directors reviews the various components of our capital.
Total equity decreased $12.1 million, or 0.61%, to $1.98 billion at September 30, 2020, compared to total equity of $1.99 billion at December 31, 2019. The $12.1 million decrease in equity was primarily due to the repurchase of 4.9 million shares of common stock for $91.7 million under our
10b5-1
stock repurchase program. We previously announced that we suspended this
10b5-1
stock repurchase program due to the uncertainty of the
COVID-19
pandemic. We had $127.1 million in net earnings during the first nine months of 2020, offset by $73.3 million in cash dividends declared and a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings of $1.3 million, net of tax, due to the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020. Our equity also increased by $23.5 million as a result of an increase in other comprehensive income from the increase in our tax adjusted market value of our
available-for-sale
investment securities. Our tangible common equity ratio was 9.78% at September 30, 2020.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Board of Directors of CVB declared quarterly cash dividends totaling $0.18 per share. Dividends are payable at the discretion of the Board of Directors and there can be no assurance that the Board of Directors will continue to pay dividends at the same rate, or at all, in the future. CVB’s ability to pay cash dividends to its shareholders is subject to restrictions under federal and California law, including restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve, and covenants set forth in various agreements we are a party to including covenants set forth in our junior subordinated debentures.
On August 11, 2016, our Board of Directors approved a program to repurchase up to 10,000,000 shares of CVB common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, at times and at prices considered appropriate by us, depending upon prevailing market conditions and other corporate and legal considerations. There is no expiration date for this repurchase program. Up to 9,577,917 of such shares were available for repurchase under the Company’s current
10b5-1
plan originally adopted in November, 2018 and subsequently amended in July, 2019. On March 31, 2020, the Company announced that it suspended its
10b5-1
stock repurchase program due to the uncertainty of the
COVID-19
pandemic. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company repurchased 4,944,290 shares of CVB common stock outstanding under this program. As of September 30, 2020, we have 4,585,145 shares of CVB common stock remaining that are eligible for repurchase under the common stock repurchase program.
The Bank and the Company are required to meet risk-based capital standards under the revised capital framework referred to as Basel III set by their respective regulatory authorities. The risk-based capital standards require the achievement of a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% and a common equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital ratio of 4.5%. In addition, the regulatory authorities require the highest rated institutions to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%. To be considered “well-capitalized” for bank regulatory purposes, the Bank and the Company are required to have a CET1 capital ratio equal to or greater than 6.5%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 8.0%, a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 10.0% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio equal to or greater than 5.0%. At September 30, 2020, the Bank and the Company exceeded the minimum risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios required to be considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes. For further information about capital requirements and our capital ratios, see “Item 1.
Business – Capital Adequacy Requirements
” as described in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019.
At September 30, 2020, the Bank and the Company exceeded the minimum risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios, under the revised capital framework referred to as Basel III, required to be considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes. We did not elect to phase in the impact of CECL on regulatory capital, as allowed under the interim final rule of the FDIC and other U.S. banking agencies.

ASSET/LIABILITY AND MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
Liquidity and Cash Flow
The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that funds are available in a timely manner to meet our financial obligations when they come due without incurring unnecessary cost or risk, or causing a disruption to our normal operating activities. This includes the ability to manage unplanned decreases or changes in funding sources, accommodating loan demand and growth, funding investments, repurchasing securities, paying creditors as necessary, and other operating or capital needs.
We regularly assess the amount and likelihood of projected funding requirements through a review of factors such as historical deposit volatility and funding patterns, present and forecasted market and economic conditions, individual customer funding needs, as well as current and planned business activities. Management has an Asset/Liability Committee that meets monthly. This committee analyzes the cash flows from loans, investments, deposits and borrowings. In addition, the Company has a Balance Sheet Management Committee of the Board of Directors that meets monthly to review the Company’s balance sheet and liquidity position. This committee provides oversight to the balance sheet and liquidity management process and recommends policy guidelines for the approval of our Board of Directors, and courses of action to address our actual and projected liquidity needs.
Our primary sources and uses of funds for the Company are deposits and loans. Our deposit levels and cost of deposits may fluctuate from
period-to-period
due to a variety of factors, including the stability of our deposit base, prevailing interest rates, and market conditions. Total deposits of $11.17 billion at September 30, 2020 increased $2.46 billion, or 28.30%, over total deposits of $8.70 billion at December 31, 2019. This significant deposit growth was primarily due to our customers maintaining greater liquidity.
In general, our liquidity is managed daily by controlling the level of liquid assets as well as the use of funds provided by the cash flow from the investment portfolio, loan demand and deposit fluctuations. Our definition of liquid assets includes cash and cash equivalents in excess of minimum levels needed to fulfill normal business operations, short-term investment securities and other anticipated near term cash flows from investments. To meet unexpected demands, lines of credit are maintained with correspondent banks, the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve, although availability under these lines of credit are subject to certain conditions. The sale of investment securities can also serve as a contingent source of funds. We can obtain additional liquidity from deposit growth by offering competitive interest rates on deposits from both our local and national wholesale markets.
At September 30, 2020, we had $25.8 million in subordinated debt and $10.0 million in FHLB short-term borrowings at 0% cost. The Bank has available lines of credit exceeding $4 billion, most of which is secured by pledged loans. Our balance sheet has significant liquidity and our assets are funded almost entirely with core deposits. Furthermore, we have significant
off-balance
sheet sources of liquidity.
CVB is a holding company separate and apart from the Bank that must provide for its own liquidity and must service its own obligations. Substantially all of CVB’s revenues are obtained from dividends declared and paid by the Bank to CVB. There are statutory and regulatory provisions that could limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to CVB. In addition, our regulators could limit the ability of the Bank or CVB to pay dividends or make other distributions. For the Bank, sources of funds include principal payments on loans and investments, growth in deposits, FHLB advances, and other borrowed funds. Uses of funds include withdrawal of deposits, interest paid on deposits, increased loan balances, purchases, and noninterest expenses.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Management
During periods of changing interest rates, the ability to
re-price
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities can influence net interest income, the net interest margin, and consequently, our earnings. Interest rate risk is managed by attempting to control the spread between rates earned on interest-earning assets and the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities within the constraints imposed by market competition in our service area. The primary goal of interest rate risk management is to control exposure to interest rate risk, within policy limits approved by the Board of Directors. These limits and guidelines reflect our risk appetite for interest rate risk over both short-term and long-term horizons. We measure these risks and their impact by identifying and quantifying exposures through the use of sophisticated simulation and valuation models, which, as described in additional detail below, are employed by management to understand net interest income (NII) at risk and economic value of equity (EVE) at risk. Net interest income at risk sensitivity captures asset and liability re pricing mismatches and is considered a shorter term measure, while EVE sensitivity captures mismatches within the period end balance sheets through the financial instruments’ respective maturities or estimated durations and is considered a longer term measure.
One of the primary methods that we use to quantify and manage interest rate risk is simulation analysis, which we use to model NII from the Company’s balance sheet under various interest rate scenarios. We use simulation analysis to project rate sensitive income under many scenarios. The analyses may include rapid and gradual ramping of interest rates, rate shocks, basis risk analysis, and yield curve scenarios. Specific balance sheet management strategies are also analyzed to determine their impact on NII and EVE. Key assumptions in the simulation analysis relate to the behavior of interest rates and pricing spreads, the changes in product balances, and the behavior of loan and deposit clients in different rate environments. This analysis incorporates several assumptions, the most material of which relate to the
re-pricing
characteristics and balance fluctuations of deposits with indeterminate or
non-contractual
maturities, and prepayment of loans and securities.
Our interest rate risk policy measures the sensitivity of our net interest income over both a
one-year
and
two-year
cumulative time horizon.
The simulation model estimates the impact of changing interest rates on interest income from all interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on all interest-bearing liabilities reflected on our balance sheet. This sensitivity analysis is compared to policy limits, which specify a maximum tolerance level for net interest income exposure over a
one-year
horizon assuming no balance sheet growth, given a 200 basis point upward and either a 100 or 200 basis point downward shift in interest rates depending on the level of current market rates. The simulation model uses a parallel yield curve shift that ramps rates up or down on a pro rata basis over the
12-month
and
24-month
time horizon.

Percentage change from base scenario, but the current low interest rate environment limits the absolute decline in rates as the model does not assume rates go below zero.
Based on our current simulation models, we believe that the interest rate risk profile of the balance sheet is asset sensitive over both a
one-year
and a
two-year
horizon. The estimated sensitivity does not necessarily represent a forecast and the results may not be indicative of actual changes to our net interest income. These estimates are based upon a number of assumptions including: the nature and timing of interest rate levels including yield curve shape,
re-pricing
characteristics and balance fluctuations of deposits with indeterminate or
non-contractual
maturities, prepayments on loans and securities, pricing strategies on loans and deposits, and replacement of asset and liability cash flows. While the assumptions used are based on current economic and local market conditions, there is no assurance as to the predictive nature of these conditions including how customer preferences or competitor influences might change. Our exposure in the rates down scenario is impacted by the current low interest rate environment and the model does not assume that rates go below 0.01%.
We also perform valuation analysis, which incorporates all cash flows over the estimated remaining life of all material balance sheet and derivative positions. The valuation of the balance sheet, at a point in time, is defined as the discounted present value of all asset cash flows and derivative cash flows minus the discounted present value of all liability cash flows, the net of which is referred to as EVE. The sensitivity of EVE to changes in the level of interest rates is a measure of the longer-term
re-pricing
risk and options risk embedded in the balance sheet. EVE uses instantaneous changes in rates, as shown in the table below. Assumptions about the timing and variability of balance sheet cash flows are critical in the
EVE analysis. Particularly important are the assumptions driving prepayments and the expected duration and pricing of the indeterminate deposit portfolios. EVE sensitivity is reported in both upward and downward rate shocks. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the EVE profile indicates a decline in net balance sheet value due to instantaneous downward changes in rates, compared to an increase resulting from an increase in rates.
Economic Value of Equity Sensitivity
 
Instantaneous Rate Change
  
    September 30, 2020    
 
 
  
    December 31, 2019    
 
100 bp decrease in interest rates
   -21.6%        -17.5
100 bp increase in interest rates
   15.2%        14.2
200 bp increase in interest rates
   26.5%        25.5
300 bp increase in interest rates
   30.7%        30.0
400 bp increase in interest rates
   36.3%        36.2
As EVE measures the discounted present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments, the change in EVE does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon (i.e., the current year). Further, EVE does not take into account factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in asset and liability mix, changes in yield curve relationships, and changing product spreads that could mitigate the adverse impact of changes in interest rates.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
LIBOR is expected to be phased out after 2021, as such the Company is assessing the impacts of this transition and exploring alternatives to use in place of LIBOR for various financial instruments, primarily related to our variable-rate loans, our subordinated debentures, and interest rate swap derivatives that are indexed to LIBOR. For further quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks in our portfolio, see “
Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity Management
” included in Item 2 “
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
” presented elsewhere in this report. This analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019. Our analysis of market risk and market-sensitive financial information contains forward-looking statements and is subject to the disclosure at the beginning of Part I regarding such forward-looking information.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various lawsuits and threatened lawsuits in the ordinary and
non-ordinary
course of business. From time to time, such lawsuits and threatened lawsuits may include, but are not limited to, actions involving securities litigation, employment matters, wage-hour and labor law claims, consumer claims, regulatory compliance claims, data privacy claims, lender liability claims and negligence claims, some of which may be styled as “class action” or representative cases. Some of these lawsuits may be similar in nature to other lawsuits pending against the Company’s competitors.
For lawsuits where the Company has determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability representing the best estimate of the Company’s financial exposure based on known facts has been recorded in accordance with FASB guidance over loss contingencies (ASC 450). However, as a result of inherent uncertainties in judicial interpretation and application of a myriad of laws and regulations applicable to the Company’s business, and the unique, complex factual issues presented in any given lawsuit, the Company often cannot determine the probability of loss or estimate the amount of damages which a plaintiff might successfully prove if the Company were found to be liable. For lawsuits or threatened lawsuits where a claim has been asserted or the Company has determined that it is probable that a claim will be asserted, and there is a reasonable possibility that the outcome will be unfavorable, the Company will disclose the existence of the loss contingency, even if the Company is not able to make an estimate of the possible loss or range of possible loss with respect to the action or potential action in question, unless the Company believes that the nature, potential magnitude or potential timing (if known) of the loss contingency is not reasonably likely to be material to the Company’s liquidity, consolidated financial position, and/or results of operations.
Our accruals and disclosures for loss contingencies are reviewed quarterly and adjusted as additional information becomes available. We disclose a loss contingency and/or the amount accrued if we believe it is reasonably likely to be material or if we believe such disclosure is necessary for our financial statements to not be misleading. If we determine that an exposure to loss exists in excess of an amount previously accrued or disclosed, we assess whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred, and we adjust our accruals and disclosures accordingly.
We do not presently believe that the ultimate resolution of any lawsuits currently pending against the Company will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. The outcome of litigation and other legal and regulatory matters is inherently uncertain, however, and it is possible that one or more of the legal matters currently pending or threatened against the Company could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS
Except as discussed below there have been no material changes to the risk factors as previously disclosed in Item 1A. to Part I of our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019. The materiality of any risks and uncertainties identified in our Forward Looking Statements contained in this report together with those previously disclosed in the Form
10-K
and any subsequent Form
10-Q
or those that are presently unforeseen could result in significant adverse effects on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. See Item 2. “
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
” in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q.
The
COVID-19
pandemic has significantly impacted the banking industry and our business. The ultimate impact on our business and financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic
.
The
COVID-19
pandemic has negatively impacted the global, U.S., California and local economies, disrupted supply chains, lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets, and sharply increased unemployment levels. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in temporary closures of many businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in many states and communities, including in California and the principal counties and cities in which our banking centers are located. Our operations, like those of other financial institutions that operate in our markets, are significantly influenced by economic conditions in California, including the strength of the real estate market and business conditions in the industries to which we lend or from which we gather deposits. The
COVID-19
pandemic has resulted in a substantial decline in the revenues of many business sectors as well as in commercial and residential property sales and construction activities. As a result, the demand for our products and services has been, and may continue to be, significantly impacted.
Furthermore, the pandemic could further influence the recognition of credit losses in our loan portfolios and further increase our allowance for credit losses, particularly as many businesses remain closed or partially open. Our customers could be expected to draw further on their lines of credit or to seek deferments of scheduled loan payments to help mitigate the effects of lost revenues. As previously noted, we have already increased our allowance for expected credit losses by $23.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, due to the continuing anticipated impact of
COVID-19-related
economic distress on our loan portfolios, coupled with the implementation of CECL for determining our overall provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2020. In addition, as also noted above, through October 9, 2020, we have granted temporary payment deferments of interest or of principal and interest to customers for 33 loans, with a gross balance of $68.6 million, or less than 1% of our total loan portfolio at September 30, 2020. Depending on the scope and duration of the
COVID-19
pandemic, we believe there is a reasonable possibility that additional loan payment deferments and increased provisions for expected credit losses could prove necessary for the final calendar quarter in 2020.
Similarly, because of changing economic and market conditions affecting bond issuers, we may be required to recognize credit losses in future periods on the securities we hold as well as reductions in other comprehensive income. Our business operations may also be disrupted if significant or critical portions of our workforce or managers are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions in connection with the pandemic. In response to the pandemic, and to comply with or follow various government recommendations or mandates, we have also suspended certain real property foreclosure actions and sales, and in certain instances, we are providing fee waivers, payment deferrals, and other expanded assistance for our business and mortgage customers. The extent to which the
COVID-19
pandemic impacts our business, results of operations, and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.
Our bank has elected to participate as a lender in the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and to register as an Eligible Lender under the Federal Reserve’s Main Street Lending Program (MSLP), and has accordingly become subject to a number of significant risks applicable to lenders under the PPP and MSLP, respectively.
As one set of responses to the
COVID-19
pandemic, our federal, state and local governments have promulgated a wide variety of laws, regulations, executive orders and programs designed to ameliorate the severe and widespread economic distress caused by the mandatory closings of many businesses throughout the State of California and counties in which we operate. One such program is the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) enacted under the federal CARES Act. This program is designed, among other things, to provide employee payroll maintenance support for small and
medium-sized
businesses throughout the United States, including in the State of California, through loans made by authorized lenders and guaranteed by the federal Small Business Administration (SBA). Because the Company is an authorized SBA lender and our primary customer base consists of small and
medium-sized
businesses, the Company has actively participated in the PPP. Including the second round of funding after Legislation passed on April 24, 2020, we have originated and funded approximately 4,100 PPP loans from our customers and, through two separate rounds of authorized funding for the PPP, totaling $1.10 billion as of September 30, 2020.

Table of Contents
Under interim final regulations promulgated by the SBA, PPP lenders are entitled to rely on borrower certifications with respect to issues such as program eligibility and eligible loan amounts, and PPP loans are designed to be subsequently forgivable, in whole or part, if certain additional criteria are met by the borrower with respect to employee payroll maintenance. However, in view of the fact that the PPP was by design intended to support economically distressed businesses, the SBA’s guarantee of PPP loan amounts to participating lenders is a critical feature of the program. In this regard, because the PPP was quickly implemented into operation and the SBA’s interim regulations have been repeatedly revised and are continuing to evolve, there are significant risks to the Company’s participation in the PPP, including whether certain borrowers will ultimately be found to have been eligible for PPP loans, whether eligible PPP loan amounts for certain borrowers were correctly calculated, whether certain PPP loans will ultimately be determined to be forgivable, and if not, whether the SBA’s guarantee will continue to apply to any unforgiven PPP loan amounts. As of November 5, 2020, 69 loans, representing approximately $43 million, were submitted to the SBA and granted forgiveness. To date, our customers who have had their forgiveness requests reviewed by the SBA have received nearly 100% loan forgiveness.
Another program enacted pursuant to the federal CARES Act and designed to help provide support to small and
medium-sized
business and their employees throughout the U.S., including California, is the Federal Reserve’s Main Street Lending Program (MSLP). The Company has elected to participate as an Eligible Lender under at least three
sub-facilities
of the MSLP, including the Main Street New Loan Facility, the Main Street Priority Loan Facility and the Nonprofit Organization New Loan Facility. Each of these lending facilities offers different terms and conditions, including with respect to borrower eligibility criteria, maximum loan amounts, whether loan proceeds can be utilized to refinance borrower indebtedness to other lenders, contractual priority,
non-subordination
and collateralization requirements, etc. Eligible Lenders may extend new MSLP loans to eligible borrowers and sell a 95% participation in each MSLP loan to a special purpose vehicle established by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (Main Street SPV), subject to numerous borrower and lender certifications and covenants and the terms of a Loan Participation Agreement and a Servicing Agreement.
In contrast to the PPP, loans under the MSLP are not forgivable, carry an adjustable rate of interest at LIBOR (one or three month) plus 300 basis points, require the payment of specified fees, and must be repaid in full at the end of a five year maturity period, with principal repayment commencing after a deferment period consisting of the first two years following loan origination. In addition, eligible lenders must retain five percent of each MSLP loan and continue to service such loan until it matures or the Main Street SPV sells all of its 95% participation interest. In this regard, because the MSLP is a newly constituted program without any established operating history, there are significant risks to the Company’s participation in the MSLP, including whether certain borrowers will ultimately be found to have been eligible for MSLP loans, whether the numerous required lender and borrower certifications will be found to have been made in good faith, whether the borrower will remain in compliance with the terms and conditions of its MSLP loan throughout its applicable term, whether any given lender or MSLP loan will be found to have been in compliance with the terms of the Main Street SPV’s Loan Participation Agreement and/or Servicing Agreement, and whether any individual MSLP loan will be repaid by the borrower on schedule, and, if not, whether the Main Street SPV will seek recourse against the originating lender.    
ITEM 2.   UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On August 11, 2016, our Board of Directors approved a program to repurchase up to 10,000,000 shares of CVB common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. There is no expiration date for this repurchase program. On March 31, 2020, the Company announced that it suspended its
10b5-1
stock repurchase program. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company did not repurchase any shares of CVB common stock outstanding under this program. As of September 30, 2020, we have 4,585,145 shares of CVB common stock available for repurchase under the common stock repurchase program.
