Global health concerns relating to the coronavirus, COVID-19, have, and will
likely continue to, severely impact the macroeconomic environment, leading to
lower interest rates, depressed equity market valuations, heightened financial
market volatility and significant disruption in banking and other financial
activity in the areas in which South State and CenterState operate and in a
broad range of industries in which the customers of South State and CenterState
operate. The financial performance of each of South State and CenterState
generally, and in particular the ability of borrowers to pay interest on and
repay principal of outstanding loans and the value of collateral securing those
loans, as well as demand for loans and other products and services that each
company offers and whose success it relies on to drive growth, is highly

Lending-related income is the most important component of our net interest
income and is a major contributor to profitability. The loan portfolio is the
largest component of earning assets, and it therefore generates the largest
portion of revenues. The absolute volume of loans and the volume of loans as a
percentage of earning assets is an important determinant of our net interest
margin as loans are expected to produce higher yields than securities and other
earning assets. Average loans during the three-month ended

Credit quality and allowance for credit losses
Effective
The allowance consists of three components. The first component consists of amounts reserved for impaired loans, as defined by ASC 326. Impaired loans are those loans that management has estimated will not repay as agreed pursuant to the loan contract. Each of these loans is required to have an analysis supporting the amount of specific reserve allocated to the particular loan, if any. That is to say, a loan may be impaired (i.e. not expected to repay as agreed), but may be sufficiently collateralized such that we expect to recover all principal and interest eventually, and therefore no specific reserve is warranted.
Commercial, commercial real estate, land, land development and construction
loans in excess of
On at least a quarterly basis, management reviews each impaired loan to
determine whether it should have a specific reserve or partial charge-off.
Management relies on appraisals to help make this determination. Updated
appraisals are obtained for collateral dependent loans when a loan is scheduled
for renewal or refinance. In addition, if the classification of the loan is
downgraded to substandard, identified as impaired, or placed on nonaccrual
status (collectively "Problem Loans"), an updated appraisal is obtained if the
loan amount is greater than
After an updated appraisal is obtained for a Problem Loan, as described above,
an additional updated appraisal will be obtained on at least an annual basis.
Thus, current appraisals for Problem Loans in excess of
After the initial updated appraisal is obtained for a Problem Loan and before its next annual appraisal update is due, management considers the need for a downward adjustment to the current appraisal amount to reflect current market conditions, based on management's analysis, judgment and experience. In an extremely volatile market, we may update the appraisal prior to the one-year anniversary date. When management determines that foreclosure is probable expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date and adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.
The second component is a general reserve on all of our loans other than those identified as impaired and is based on relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Peer credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Given the Company's size, complexity, and acquisitive history, loan-level loss data is not readily available to develop reasonable and supportable loss estimates. Rather, the Company is relying on peer data from call reports to develop models that forecast a periodic default rate for each of the portfolio segments. Adjustments to historical loss information and reversion periods are made for differences in current loan specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, the national home price index, and other factors. Adjustments to the models may be made based on changes in lending policy, underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency levels, credit concentrations, external factors and other economic and regulatory factors that may not be captured in the models. The Company generally utilizes a four-quarter forecast with a four-quarter reversion period.
The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The company has identified the following portfolio segments: residential loans, commercial real estate loans, construction and land development loans, commercial and industrial and consumer and other.
Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis as described above. Loans evaluated individually are not also included in the collective evaluation.
The third component consists of amounts reserved for purchased credit
deteriorated loans. The third component consists of amounts reserved for
purchased credit deteriorated loans. Upon adoption of ASC Topic 326, the ACL for
PCD loans, except for PCD loans individually evaluated for impairment, is
measured on a collective pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist. On
adoption date, the credit discount on PCD loans was reclassified from loan
discount to ACL, thereby establishing a new amortized cost basis. The difference
between the unpaid principal balance of the pool and the new amortized cost
basis on adoption date was non-credit discount and was subsequently allocated to
each individual loan. This non-credit discount will be amortized into interest
income using the effective yield method over the remaining life of the
individual loans. Changes to the allowance for credit losses after adoption are
recorded through provision for credit losses. Like with our other impaired
loans, PCD loans in excess of

Nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets
Non-performing loans are defined as non-accrual loans plus loans past due 90
days or more and still accruing interest. Generally, we place loans on
non-accrual status when they are past due 90 days and management believes the
borrower's financial condition, after giving consideration to economic
conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is
doubtful. For CBI's factored receivables, which are commercial trade credits
rather than promissory notes, the Company's practice, in most cases, is to
charge-off unpaid recourse receivables when they become 90 days past due from
the invoice due date and the non-recourse receivables when they become 120 days
past due from the statement billing date. When we place a loan on non-accrual
status, interest accruals cease and uncollected interest is reversed and charged
against current income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the
cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual.
Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts
contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably
assured. With the adoption of ASC 326 and the new accounting treatment for PCD
loans, the Company began to include non-accrual PCD loans in its non-performing
loans and assets and related credit metrics starting with the current
quarter. Previous periods do not include PCD loans as these loans were not
considered non-performing under ASC 310-30. Non-performing loans, as defined
above, as a percentage of total loans including PCD loans, was 0.66% at
Non-performing assets (which we define as non-performing loans, as defined
above, plus (a) OREO (i.e., real estate acquired through foreclosure, in
substance foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure); and (b) other

Impaired loans are defined as loans that management has determined will not
repay as agreed pursuant to the terms of the related loan agreement. Small
balance homogeneous loans are not considered for impairment purposes. Once
management has determined a loan is impaired, we perform a specific reserve
analysis to determine if it is probable that we will eventually collect all
contractual cash flows. If management determines that a shortfall is probable,
then a specific valuation allowance is placed against the loan. This loan is
then placed on non-accrual, even if the borrower is current with his/her
contractual payments, and will remain on non-accrual until payments collected
reduce the loan balance such that it eliminates the specific valuation allowance
or equivalent partial charge-down or other economic conditions change. At

Interest Rate Swap Derivatives
The Company enters into interest rate swaps in order to provide commercial loan
clients the ability to swap from variable to fixed interest rates. Under these
agreements, the Company enters into a variable rate loan with a client in
addition to a swap agreement. This swap agreement effectively converts the
client's variable rate loan into a fixed rate. The Company then enters into a
matching swap agreement with a third party dealer in order to offset its
exposure on the customer swap. The fair value of interest rate swap derivatives

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. A banking organization needs to maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 ("CET1") capital ratio of at least 7%, a total Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 8.5% and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.5%. The net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale debt securities is not included in computing regulatory capital.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set
forth in the table below) of total capital, Tier I capital and CET1 (as defined
in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets. Management believes, as of

Liquidity
Liquidity is defined as the ability to meet anticipated customer demands for funds under credit commitments and deposit withdrawals at a reasonable cost and on a timely basis. We measure liquidity position by giving consideration to both on- and off-balance sheet sources of and demands for funds on a daily and weekly basis.
Our Bank regularly assesses 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 client funding needs, and existing and planned business activities. The Bank's asset/liability committee (ALCO) provides oversight to the liquidity management process and recommends guidelines, subject to the approval of its board of directors, and courses of action to address actual and projected liquidity needs.
Short term sources of funding and liquidity include cash and cash equivalents,
net of federal requirements to maintain reserves against deposit liabilities;
investment securities eligible for pledging to secure borrowings from customers
pursuant to securities sold under repurchase agreements; loan repayments;
deposits and certain interest rate-sensitive deposits; and borrowings under
overnight federal fund lines available from correspondent banks, including the
Federal Reserve Discount Window, and borrowing from the
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements except for approved and unfunded loans and letters of credit to our customers in the ordinary course of business.

Management reviews yields on certain asset categories and the net interest margin of the Company and its banking subsidiaries on a fully taxable equivalent basis. In this non-GAAP presentation, net interest income is adjusted to reflect tax-exempt interest income on an equivalent before-tax basis. This measure ensures the comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources.
These disclosures should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other financial holding companies. Management compensates for these limitations by providing detailed reconciliations between GAAP information and the non-GAAP financial measures.
