NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of operations
WAL is a bank holding company headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware. WAL provides a full spectrum of customized loan, deposit, and treasury management capabilities, including funds transfer and other digital payment offerings through its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, WAB.
WAB operates the following full-service banking divisions: ABA, BON, FIB, Bridge, and TPB. The Company also serves business customers through a national platform of specialized financial services, including mortgage banking services through AmeriHome, and digital payment services for the class action legal industry. In addition, the Company has the following non-bank subsidiaries: CSI, a captive insurance company formed and licensed under the laws of the State of Arizona and established as part of the Company's overall enterprise risk management strategy, and WATC, which provides corporate trust services and levered loan administration solutions.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2024 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The information furnished in these interim statements reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for each respective period presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other quarter or for the full year.
Recent accounting pronouncements
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The amendments in this update are intended to increase visibility into various income tax components that affect the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory rate, as well as the qualitative and quantitative aspects of those components. Public business entities will be required to disclose on an annual basis, specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet or exceed a five percent threshold (computed by multiplying pretax income by the applicable statutory income tax rate) and include disclosure of state and local jurisdictions that make up the majority of the state and local income tax category in the rate reconciliation. Additional disclosure items include disaggregation of income taxes paid to and income tax expense from federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions as well as disaggregation of income taxes paid to individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid are equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid.
The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 and may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact these amendments will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2023-08, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Crypto Assets (Topic 350). The amendments in this update require entities that hold certain crypto assets to measure such assets at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income in each reporting period. Entities will also be required to present crypto assets measured at fair value separately from other intangible assets on the balance sheet and changes from the remeasurement of crypto assets separately from changes in the carrying amounts of other intangible assets in the income statement. Other disclosure items include the name, cost basis, fair value, and number of units for each significant crypto asset holding and the aggregate fair values and cost bases of crypto asset holdings that are not individually significant along with a rollforward of activity in the reporting period and disclosure of the method for determining the cost basis of the crypto assets.
The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years and are applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (as of the beginning of the annual reporting period of adoption). As the Company does not currently hold any crypto assets meeting the criteria outlined in the update, the adoption of this guidance is not expected to have an impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures related to significant segment expenses. The amendments do not change how an entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments and all existing segment disclosure requirements in ASC 280 and other Codification topics remain unchanged. The amendments in this update are incremental and require public entities that report segment information to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss as well as other segment items. Annual disclosure of the title and position of the chief operating decision maker and how the reported measures of segment profit or loss are used to assess performance and allocation of resources is also required.
The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and are applied on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact these amendments will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently adopted accounting guidance
Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method
In March 2023, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2023-02, Investments — Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323). The amendments in this update permit entities to elect to account for tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Previously this option was only permitted for LIHTC investments. Additionally, the amendments in this update require that all tax equity investments accounted for using the proportional amortization method apply the delayed equity contribution guidance in Subtopic 323-740 and disclosure of the nature of an entity's tax equity investments and their effect on an entity's financial position and results of operations.
The Company adopted this accounting guidance prospectively on January 1, 2024. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Management's estimates and judgments are ongoing and are based on experience, current and expected future conditions, third-party evaluations and various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities, as well as identifying and assessing the accounting treatment with respect to commitments and contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions used in the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes. Material estimates that are susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to: 1) the determination of the ACL; 2) certain assets and liabilities carried at or evaluated using fair value measurements; 3) goodwill impairment; and 4) accounting for income taxes.
Principles of consolidation
As of June 30, 2024, WAL has the following significant wholly-owned subsidiaries: WAB and eight unconsolidated subsidiaries used as business trusts in connection with the issuance of trust-preferred securities.
WAB has the following significant wholly-owned subsidiaries: 1) WABT, which holds certain investment securities, municipal and nonprofit loans, and leases; 2) WA PWI, which holds interests in certain limited partnerships invested primarily in low income housing tax credits and small business investment corporations; 3) Helios Prime, which holds interests in certain limited partnerships invested in renewable energy projects; 4) BW Real Estate, Inc., which operates as a real estate investment trust and holds certain of WAB's real estate loans and related securities; and 5) Western Finance Company, which purchases and originates equipment finance leases and provides mortgage banking services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, AmeriHome.
The Company does not have any other significant entities that should be consolidated. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Consolidated Income Statements for the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.

Government Issued Securities
U.S. Treasury securities and commercial and residential MBS are issued by either government agencies or GSEs. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government and are highly rated by major rating agencies. Further, principal and interest payments on these securities continue to be made on a timely basis.
Non-Government Issued Securities
Qualitative factors used in the Company's credit loss assessment of its securities that are not issued and guaranteed by the U.S. government include consideration of any adverse conditions related to a specific security, industry, or geographic region of its securities, any credit ratings below investment grade, the payment structure of the security and the likelihood of the issuer to be able to make payments that increase in the future, and failure of the issuer to make any scheduled principal or interest payments.
For the Company's corporate debt and tax-exempt securities, the Company also considers various metrics of the issuer including days of cash on hand, the ratio of long-term debt to total assets, the net change in cash between reporting periods, and consideration of any breach in covenant requirements. The Company's corporate debt securities are primarily investment grade, issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments, and the unrealized losses on these security portfolios primarily relate to changes in interest rates and other market conditions not considered to be credit-related issues. The Company continues to receive timely principal and interest payments on its tax-exempt securities and the majority of these issuers have revenues pledged for payment of debt service prior to payment of other types of expenses.
In consideration of the continued effects from the bank failures in 2023, the Company performed a targeted impairment analysis on its AFS debt securities issued by regional banks held in its corporate debt securities portfolio. The Company considered the issuers' credit ratings, probability of default, and other factors. As a result of the analysis, recoveries of credit losses totaling $0.5 million and $0.6 million were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and a provision for credit losses of $2.2 million and $21.5 million was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 included recognition of a $17.1 million charge-off for one debt security issued by a regional bank that was sold. The Company does not intend to sell and it is more likely than not the Company will not be required to sell the remainder of these regional bank debt securities prior to their anticipated recovery, therefore, no additional credit losses on the Company's remaining portfolio have been recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
For the Company's private label residential MBS, which consist of non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations secured by pools of residential mortgage loans, the Company also considers metrics such as securitization risk weight factor, current credit support, whether there were any mortgage principal losses resulting from defaults in payments on the underlying mortgage collateral, and the credit default rate over the last twelve months. These securities primarily carry investment grade credit ratings, principal and interest payments on these securities continue to be made on a timely basis, and credit support for these securities is considered adequate.
The Company's CLO portfolio consisted of highly rated securitization tranches, containing pools of medium to large-sized corporate, high yield loans. These are variable rate securities that have an investment grade rating of Single-A or better. Unrealized losses on these securities are primarily a function of the differential from the offer price and the valuation mid-market price as well as changes in interest rates.
Unrealized losses on the Company's other securities portfolio relate to taxable municipal and trust preferred securities. The Company is continuing to receive timely principal and interest payments on its taxable municipal securities, these securities continue to be highly rated and the number of days of cash on hand is strong. The Company's trust preferred securities are investment grade and the issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The ACL consists of the ACL on funded loans HFI and an ACL on unfunded loan commitments. The ACL on HTM securities is estimated separately from loans, see "Note 2. Investment Securities" of these Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. Management considers the level of ACL to be a reasonable and supportable estimate of expected credit losses inherent within the Company's HFI loan portfolio as of June 30, 2024.
The below tables reflect the activity in the ACL on loans HFI by loan portfolio segment, which includes an estimate of future recoveries:

| | | | | | | |
Unpaid principal balance of mortgage loans serviced for others | $ | 68,215 | | | $ | 59,705 | | | | | |
Changes in the fair value of MSRs are recorded as Net loan servicing revenue in the Consolidated Income Statement. Due to the regulatory capital impact of MSRs on capital ratios, the Company sells certain MSRs and related servicing advances in the normal course of business. The Company may also sell excess servicing spread related to certain mortgage loans serviced by the Company. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, MSR sales had a net gain of $0.8 million and the UPB of loans underlying these sales totaled $16.4 billion. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, MSR sales had a net gain of $3.5 million and the UPB of loans underlying these sales totaled $27.2 billion. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, MSR sales had a net gain of $1.7 million and the UPB of loans underlying these sales totaled $8.8 billion. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, MSR sales had a net loss of $8.0 million and the UPB of loans underlying these sales totaled $28.3 billion. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had a remaining receivable balance of $32 million and $41 million, respectively, related to holdbacks on MSR sales for servicing transfers, which are recorded in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The Company receives loan servicing fees, net of subservicing costs, based on the UPB of the underlying loans. Loan servicing fees are collected from payments made by borrowers. The Company may receive other remuneration from rights to various borrower contracted fees, such as late charges, collateral reconveyance charges, and non-sufficient funds fees. Contractually specified servicing fees, late fees, and ancillary income associated with the Company's MSR portfolio totaled $70.1 million and $137.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and $54.0 million and $116.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, which are recorded as Net loan servicing revenue in the Consolidated Income Statement.
In accordance with its contractual loan servicing obligations, the Company is required to advance funds to or on behalf of investors when borrowers do not make payments. The Company advances property taxes and insurance premiums for borrowers who have insufficient funds in escrow accounts, plus any other costs to preserve real estate properties. The Company may also advance funds to maintain, repair, and market foreclosed real estate properties. The Company is entitled to recover all or a portion of the advances from borrowers of reinstated and performing loans, from the proceeds of liquidated properties or from the government agency or GSE guarantor of charged-off loans. Servicing advances are charged-off when they are deemed to be uncollectible. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, net servicing advances totaled $53 million and $87 million, respectively, which are recorded as Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The following table presents the effect of hypothetical changes in the fair value of MSRs caused by assumed immediate changes in interest rates, discount rates, and prepayment speeds that are used to determine fair value:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | June 30, 2024 | | |
| | (in millions) |
Fair value of mortgage servicing rights | | $ | 1,145 | | | |
Increase (decrease) in fair value resulting from: | | | | |
Interest rate change of 50 basis points | | | | |
Adverse change | | (63) | | | |
Favorable change | | 57 | | | |
Discount rate change of 50 basis points | | | | |
Increase | | (22) | | | |
Decrease | | 23 | | | |
Conditional prepayment rate change of 1% | | | | |
Increase | | (30) | | | |
Decrease | | 33 | | | |
Cost to service change of 10% | | | | |
Increase | | (14) | | | |
Decrease | | 14 | | | |
Sensitivities are hypothetical changes in fair value and cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of changes in assumptions to changes in fair value may not be linear. In addition, the offsetting effect of hedging activities are not contemplated in these results and further, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption is calculated without changing any other assumptions, whereas a change in one factor may result in changes to another. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that actual results would be consistent with the results of these estimates. As a result, actual future changes in MSR values may differ significantly from those reported.

FHLB and FRB Advances
The Company also maintains secured overnight lines of credit with the FHLB and the FRB. The Company’s borrowing capacity is determined based on collateral pledged, generally consisting of investment securities and loans, at the time of the borrowing.

The weighted average rate on FHLB advances was 5.66% and 5.67% as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Repurchase Agreements
Warehouse borrowing lines of credit are used to finance the acquisition of loans through the use of repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements operate as financings under which the Company transfers loans to secure these borrowings. The borrowing amounts are based on the attributes of the collateralized loans and are defined in the repurchase agreement of each warehouse lender. The Company retains beneficial ownership of the transferred loans and will receive the loans from the lender upon full repayment of the borrowing. The repurchase agreements may require the Company to transfer additional assets to the lender in the event the estimated fair value of the existing transferred loans declines.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had access to approximately $2.3 billion in uncommitted warehouse funding, of which no amounts were drawn. As of December 31, 2023, there were $376 million in warehouse borrowings outstanding at a weighted average borrowing rate of 6.72%.
Other repurchase facilities include overnight customer repurchase agreements. The total carrying value of these repurchase agreements was $8 million and $6 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Secured Borrowings

Credit Linked Notes
The Company entered into credit linked note transactions that effectively transfer the risk of first losses on reference pools of the Company's loans purchased under its residential mortgage purchase program to the purchasers of the notes. The principal and interest payable on these notes may be reduced by a portion of the Company's loss on such loans if one of the following occurs with respect to a covered loan: (i) realized losses incurred by the Company on a loan following a liquidation of the loan or certain other events, or (ii) a modification of the loan resulting in a reduction in payments. The aggregate losses, if any, for each payment date will be allocated to reduce the class principal amount and (for modifications) the current interest of the notes in reverse order of class priority. Losses on residential mortgages have not generally been significant.

(1) Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, beginning on June 15, 2026 at their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and has a fixed interest rate of 3.00%. The notes also convert to a variable rate of three-month SOFR plus 225 basis points on this date.
(2) Debt is redeemable, in whole or in part, on or after June 1, 2025 at its principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and has a fixed interest rate of 5.25% through June 1, 2025 and then converts to a variable rate per annum equal to three-month SOFR plus 512 basis points.
The carrying value of all subordinated debt issuances totaled $819 million and $818 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Junior Subordinated Debt
The Company has formed or acquired through acquisition eight statutory business trusts, which exist for the exclusive purpose of issuing Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities.
With the exception of debt issued by Bridge Capital Trust I and Bridge Capital Trust II, junior subordinated debt is recorded at fair value at each reporting date due to the FVO election made by the Company under ASC 825. The Company did not make the FVO election for the junior subordinated debt acquired in the Bridge acquisition. Accordingly, the carrying value of these trusts does not reflect the current fair value of the debt and includes a fair market value adjustment established at acquisition that is being accreted over the remaining life of the trusts.
The carrying value of junior subordinated debt was $78 million and $77 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, with maturity dates ranging from 2033 through 2037. The weighted average interest rate of all junior subordinated debt as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was 7.92% and 7.93%, respectively.
In the event of certain changes or amendments to regulatory requirements or federal tax rules, the debt is redeemable in whole. The obligations under these instruments are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to all other liabilities of the Company. Based on guidance issued by the FRB, the Company's securities continue to qualify as Tier 1 Capital.
9. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Stock-Based Compensation
Restricted Stock Awards
Restricted stock awards granted to employees generally vest over a 3-year period and stock grants made to non-employee WAL directors have generally vested over six months, with the 2024 grants vesting over one year. The Company estimates the compensation cost for stock grants based upon the grant date fair value. Stock compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. The aggregate grant date fair value for the restricted stock awards granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $1.8 million and $46.6 million, respectively. Stock compensation expense related to restricted stock awards granted to employees is included in Salaries and employee benefits in the Consolidated Income Statement. For restricted stock awards granted to WAL directors, the related stock compensation expense is included in Legal, professional, and directors' fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $11.4 million and $23.5 million, in stock-based compensation expense related to employee and WAL director stock grants, compared to $9.1 million and $17.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Performance Stock Units
The Company grants performance stock units to members of its executive management that do not vest unless the Company achieves certain performance measures over a three-year performance period. For the 2024 award, the performance measures are based on the Company’s relative return on equity and maintenance of a target CET1 ratio, and relative TSR performance. For the 2023 and 2022 awards, the performance measures are based on achievement of a specified cumulative EPS target and a TSR performance factor. The number of shares issued will vary based on the performance measures that are achieved. The Company estimates the cost of performance stock units based upon the grant date fair value and expected vesting percentage over the three-year performance period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively, for such units. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1.4 million for such units and a net reversal of expense of $1.1 million, respectively, on unvested performance stock units due to revised performance expectations.
The three-year performance period for the 2021 grant ended on December 31, 2023, and based on the Company's cumulative EPS and TSR performance measure for the performance period, these shares vested at 168% of the target award under the terms of the grant. As a result, 129,942 shares became fully vested and were distributed to executive management in the first quarter of 2024.
The three-year performance period for the 2020 grant ended on December 31, 2022, and based on the Company's cumulative EPS and TSR performance measure for the performance period, these shares vested at 180% of the target award under the terms of the grant. As a result, 157,784 shares became fully vested and distributed to executive management in the first quarter of 2023.
Cash Settled Restricted Stock Units
In 2024, the Company began granting cash settled restricted stock units to members of its executive management that vest equally on a monthly basis over a three-year period. As the awards are settled in cash and are not dependent on the occurrence of a future event, these awards are classified as liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. At each vesting date, the Company settles the vested stock units in cash at the settlement date stock price. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized compensation expense of $0.3 million and $0.4 million related to these awards, respectively. There were no such units outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Deferred Stock Units
In 2024, the Company began granting deferred stock unit awards to certain members of its management team, which are intended to provide retirement benefits on an unfunded, unsecured basis. These awards can be settled in either stock or cash, at the Company's option. Participants are credited dividend equivalent units for any cash dividends paid with respect to the shares of stock underlying the stock units. These awards vest on the later of (i) the one-year anniversary of the grant date and (ii) the participant's satisfaction of age- and service-related eligibility criteria for a qualified retirement. The aggregate grant date fair value for these deferred stock unit awards granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $5.6 million. Stock compensation expense related to these deferred stock units is included in Salaries and employee benefits in the Consolidated Income Statement. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $0.5 million in stock-based compensation expense related to these stock grants. There were no such units outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Preferred Stock
The Company has 12,000,000 depositary shares outstanding, each representing a 1/400th ownership interest in a share of the Company’s 4.250% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Shares, Series A, par value $0.0001 per share, with a liquidation preference of $25 per depositary share (equivalent to $10,000 per share of Series A preferred stock). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per depositary share, for a total dividend payment to preferred stockholders of $3.2 million and $6.4 million, respectively.
Cash Dividend on Common Shares
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.37 per share, for a total dividend payment to stockholders of $40.8 million and $81.5 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.36 per share for a total dividend payment to stockholders of $39.4 million and $78.8 million, respectively.
Treasury Shares
Treasury share purchases represent shares surrendered to the Company equal in value to the statutory payroll tax withholding obligations arising from the vesting of employee restricted stock awards. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company purchased treasury shares of 17,886 and 140,483, respectively, at a weighted average price of $59.07 and $61.23 per share, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company purchased treasury shares of 7,815 and 151,219, respectively, at a weighted average price of $31.96 and $72.49 per share, respectively.

11. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company is a party to various derivative instruments. The primary types of derivatives the Company uses are interest rate contracts, forward purchase and sale commitments, and interest rate futures. Generally, these instruments are used to help manage the Company's exposure to interest rate risk related to IRLCs and its inventory of loans HFS and MSRs and also to meet client financing and hedging needs.
Derivatives are recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, after taking into account the effects of bilateral collateral and master netting agreements. These agreements allow the Company to settle all derivative contracts held with the same counterparty on a net basis, and to offset net derivative positions with related cash collateral, where applicable.
Derivatives Designated in Hedge Relationships
The Company utilizes derivatives that have been designated as part of a hedge relationship in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance to minimize the exposure to changes in benchmark interest rates, which reduces asset sensitivity and volatility of net interest income and EVE to interest rate fluctuations, such that interest rate risk falls within Board approved limits. The primary derivative instruments used to manage interest rate risk are interest rate swaps, which convert the contractual interest rate index of agreed-upon amounts of assets and liabilities (i.e., notional amounts) from either a fixed rate to a variable rate, or from a variable rate to a fixed rate.
The Company has pay fixed/receive variable interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges of certain fixed rate loans. As a result, the Company receives variable-rate interest payments in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the lives of the contracts without exchanging the notional amounts. The variable-rate interest payments were based on LIBOR and were converted to SOFR plus a spread adjustment upon the discontinuation of LIBOR in June 2023.
The Company also has pay fixed/receive variable interest rate swaps, designated as fair value hedges using the portfolio layer method to manage the exposure to changes in fair value associated with pools of fixed rate loans, resulting from changes in the designated benchmark interest rate (federal funds rate). These portfolio layer hedges provide the Company the ability to execute a fair value hedge of the interest rate risk associated with a portfolio of similar prepayable assets, whereby the last dollar amount estimated to remain in the portfolio of assets was identified as the hedged item. Under these interest rate swap contracts, the Company received a variable rate and paid a fixed rate on the outstanding notional amount.
The Company also had pay fixed/receive variable interest rate swaps, designated as fair value hedges using the last-of-layer method. Upon termination of these last-of-layer hedges in 2022, the cumulative basis adjustment on these hedges was allocated across the remaining loan pool and is being amortized over the remaining term. At June 30, 2024, the remaining cumulative basis adjustment on the terminated last-of-layer hedges totaled $3 million.
Derivatives Not Designated in Hedge Relationships
Management enters into certain contracts and agreements, including foreign exchange derivative contracts, back-to-back interest rate contracts, risk participation agreements and equity warrants, which are not designated as accounting hedges. Foreign exchange derivative contracts include spot, forward, forward window, and swap contracts. The purpose of these derivative contracts is to mitigate foreign currency risk on transactions entered into, or on behalf of customers. The Company's back-to-back interest rate contracts are used to allow customers to manage long-term interest rate risk. Contracts with customers, along with the related derivative trades the Company places, are both remeasured at fair value, and are referred to as economic hedges since they economically offset the Company's exposure.
The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to interest rate risk within its mortgage banking business related to IRLCs and its inventory of loans HFS and MSRs. The Company economically hedges the changes in fair value associated with changes in interest rates generally by utilizing forward purchase and sale commitments, interest rate futures and interest rate contracts.
Risk participation agreements are entered into with lead banks in certain loan syndications to share in the risk of default on interest rate swaps on participated loans. Equity warrants represent the right to buy shares in a company at a specified price and are acquired by the Company primarily in connection with negotiating credit facilities and certain other services to private, venture-backed companies in the technology industry.
Fair Value Hedges
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the following amounts are reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to cumulative basis adjustments for outstanding fair value hedges:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | | |
(1)Included in the carrying value of the hedged assets/(liabilities).
(2)As of June 30, 2024, included portfolio layer method derivative instruments with $3.5 billion designated as the hedged amount (from a closed portfolio of prepayable fixed rate loans with a carrying value of $6.5 billion). The cumulative basis adjustment included in the carrying value of these hedged items totaled $(57.4) million.
For the Company's derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current period earnings. The loss or gain on the hedged item is recognized in the same line item as the offsetting loss or gain on the related interest rate swaps. For loans, the gain or loss on the hedged item is included in interest income, as shown in the table below.

In addition to the gains and losses on the Company's outstanding fair value hedges presented in the above table, the Company recognized $2.9 million and $5.9 million, respectively in interest income related to the amortization of the cumulative basis adjustment on its discontinued last-of-layer hedges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Fair Values, Volume of Activity, and Gain/Loss Information Related to Derivative Instruments
The following table summarizes the fair value of the Company's derivative instruments on a gross basis as of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023. The change in the notional amounts of these derivatives from June 30, 2023 to June 30, 2024 indicates the volume of the Company's derivative transaction activity during these periods. The derivative asset and liability balances are presented on a gross basis, prior to the application of bilateral collateral and master netting agreements. Total derivative assets and liabilities are adjusted to take into account the impact of legally enforceable master netting agreements that allow the Company to settle all derivative contracts with the same counterparty on a net basis and to offset the net derivative position with the related cash collateral. Where master netting agreements are not in effect or are not enforceable under bankruptcy laws, the Company does not adjust those derivative amounts with counterparties.

(1)The Company enters into futures purchase and sales contracts that are subject to daily remargining and almost all of which are based on three-month SOFR to hedge against its MSR valuation exposure. The notional amount on these contracts is substantial as these contracts have a short duration and are intended to cover the longer duration of MSR hedges.

Counterparty Credit Risk
Like other financial instruments, derivatives contain an element of credit risk. This risk is measured as the expected replacement value of the contracts. Management enters into bilateral collateral and master netting agreements that provide for the net settlement of all contracts with the same counterparty. Additionally, management monitors counterparty credit risk exposure on each contract to determine appropriate limits on the Company's total credit exposure across all product types, which may require the Company to post collateral to counterparties when these contracts are in a net liability position and conversely, for counterparties to post collateral to the Company when these contracts are in a net asset position. Management reviews the Company's collateral positions on a daily basis and exchanges collateral with counterparties in accordance with standard ISDA documentation and other related agreements. The Company generally posts or holds collateral in the form of cash deposits or highly rated securities issued by the U.S. Treasury or government-sponsored enterprises (FNMA and FHLMC), or guaranteed by GNMA. At June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023 collateral pledged by the Company to counterparties for its derivatives totaled $130 million, $216 million, and $90 million, respectively.
12. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Diluted EPS is calculated using the weighted average outstanding common shares during the period, including common stock equivalents. Basic EPS is calculated using the weighted average outstanding common shares during the period.
The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS:

13. INCOME TAXES
The Company's effective tax rate was 21.9% and 17.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 22.7% and 19.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rates for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to an increase in nondeductible insurance premiums and a decrease in expected investment tax credit benefits during 2024.
As of June 30, 2024, the net DTA balance totaled $276 million, a decrease of $11 million from $287 million at December 31, 2023. This overall decrease in the net DTA was primarily the result of an increase in DTLs related to MSRs that were partially offset by decreases in the fair market value of AFS securities, paired with increases in credit carryovers and state net operating losses.
Although realization is not assured, the Company believes that the realization of the recognized deferred tax asset of $276 million at June 30, 2024 is more-likely-than-not based on expectations as to future taxable income and based on available tax planning strategies that could be implemented if necessary to prevent a carryover from expiring.
At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no deferred tax valuation allowance.
LIHTC and renewable energy projects
The Company holds ownership interests in limited partnerships and limited liability companies that invest in affordable housing and renewable energy projects. These investments are designed to generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits and deductions.
Investments in LIHTC and renewable energy totaled $537 million and $573 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Unfunded LIHTC and renewable energy obligations are included in Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and totaled $305 million and $322 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, amortization related to LIHTC investments of $17.1 million and $27.7 million, respectively, was recognized as a component of income tax expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, amortization related to LIHTC investments of $35.7 million and $39.0 million, respectively, was recognized as a component of income tax expense.
14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Unfunded Commitments and Letters of Credit
The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. They involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of amounts recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Lines of credit are obligations to lend money to a borrower. Credit risk arises when the borrower's current financial condition may indicate less ability to pay than when the commitment was originally made. In the case of letters of credit, the risk arises from the potential failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of a contract. In such a situation, the third party might draw on the letter of credit to pay for completion of the contract and the Company would look to its customer to repay these funds with interest. To minimize the risk, the Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it would for a loan to that customer.
Letters of credit and financial guarantees are commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party in borrowing arrangements. The Company generally has recourse to recover from the customer any amounts paid under the guarantees. Typically, letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year.
A summary of the contractual amounts for unfunded commitments and letters of credit are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | June 30, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |
| | (in millions) |
Commitments to extend credit, including unsecured loan commitments of $749 at June 30, 2024 and $989 at December 31, 2023 | | $ | 12,746 | | | $ | 13,291 | |
Credit card commitments and financial guarantees | | 448 | | | 418 | |
Letters of credit, including unsecured letters of credit of $2 at June 30, 2024 and $4 at December 31, 2023 | | 261 | | | 222 | |
Total | | $ | 13,455 | | | $ | 13,931 | |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer provided that there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Company enters into credit arrangements that generally provide for the termination of advances in the event of a covenant violation or other event of default. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. The commitments are collateralized by the same types of assets used as loan collateral.
The Company has exposure to credit losses from unfunded commitments and letters of credit. As funds have not been disbursed on these commitments, they are not reported as loans outstanding. Credit losses related to these commitments are included in Other liabilities as a separate loss contingency and are not included in the ACL reported in "Note 4. Loans, Leases and Allowance for Credit Losses" of these Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. This loss contingency for unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit was $36 million and $32 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Changes to this liability are adjusted through the provision for credit losses in the Consolidated Income Statement.
Commitments to Invest in Renewable Energy Projects
The Company has off-balance sheet commitments to invest in renewable energy projects, as described in "Note 13. Income Taxes" of these Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, subject to the underlying project meeting certain milestones. These conditional commitments totaled $32 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Concentrations of Lending Activities
The Company does not have a single external customer from which it derives 10% or more of its revenues. The Company monitors concentrations of lending activities at the product and borrower relationship level. Commercial and industrial loans made up 41% and 38% of the Company's HFI loan portfolio as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company's loan portfolio includes significant credit exposure to the CRE market. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, CRE related loans accounted for approximately 31% and 33% of total loans, respectively. Approximately 16% of CRE loans, excluding construction and land loans, were owner-occupied as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. No borrower relationships at both the commitment and funded loan level exceeded 5% of total loans HFI as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Contingencies
The Company is involved in various lawsuits of a routine nature that are being handled and defended in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Expenses are being incurred in connection with these lawsuits, but in the opinion of management, based in part on consultation with outside legal counsel, the resolution of these lawsuits and associated defense costs will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Lease Commitments
The Company has operating leases under which it leases its branch offices, corporate headquarters, and other offices. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, operating lease costs totaled $7.1 million and $14.1 million, respectively, compared to $7.1 million and $14.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Other lease costs, which include common area maintenance, parking, and taxes, and were included as occupancy expense, totaled $1.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
15. FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING
The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market) for such asset or liability. In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach, and/or the cost approach. Such valuation techniques are consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques include the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally-developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality and the Company’s creditworthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. A more detailed description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value is set forth below.
Under ASC 825, the Company elected the FVO treatment for junior subordinated debt issued by WAL. This election is irrevocable and results in the recognition of unrealized gains and losses on the debt at each reporting date. These unrealized gains and losses are recognized in OCI rather than earnings. The Company did not elect FVO treatment for the junior subordinated debt assumed in the Bridge Capital Holdings acquisition.
The following table presents unrealized gains and losses from fair value changes on junior subordinated debt:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| | 2024 | | 2023 | | 2024 | | 2023 |
| | (in millions) |
Unrealized (losses) gains | | $ | (0.7) | | | $ | 6.7 | | | $ | (1.4) | | | $ | 5.2 | |
Changes included in OCI, net of tax | | (0.5) | | | 5.0 | | | (1.0) | | | 3.9 | |
Fair value on a recurring basis
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include the following:
AFS debt securities: Securities classified as AFS are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 and Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include quoted prices in active markets, dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.
Equity securities: Preferred stock and CRA investments are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs.
Independent pricing service: The Company's independent pricing service provides pricing information on the majority of the Company's Level 1 and Level 2 AFS debt securities. For a small subset of securities, other pricing sources are used, including observed prices on publicly-traded securities and dealer quotes. Management independently evaluates the fair value measurements received from the Company's third-party pricing service through multiple review steps. First, management reviews what has transpired in the marketplace with respect to interest rates, credit spreads, volatility, and mortgage rates, among other things, and develops an expectation of changes to the securities' valuations from the previous quarter. Then, management selects a sample of investment securities and compares the values provided by its primary third-party pricing service to the market values obtained from secondary sources, including other pricing services and safekeeping statements, and evaluates those with notable variances. In instances where there are discrepancies in pricing from various sources and management expectations, management may manually price securities using currently observed market data to determine whether they can develop similar prices or may utilize bid information from broker dealers. Any remaining discrepancies between management’s review and the prices provided by the vendor are discussed with the vendor and/or the Company’s other valuation advisors.
Loans HFS: Government-insured or guaranteed and agency-conforming 1-4 family residential loans HFS are salable into active markets. Accordingly, the fair value of these loans is based primarily on quoted market or contracted selling prices or a market price equivalent, which are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Mortgage servicing rights: MSRs are measured based on valuation techniques using Level 3 inputs. The Company uses a discounted cash flow model that incorporates assumptions market participants would use in estimating the fair value of servicing rights, including, but not limited to, option adjusted spread, conditional prepayment rate, servicing fee rate, recapture rate, and cost to service.
Derivative financial instruments: Forward contracts are measured based on valuation techniques using Level 2 inputs, such as quoted market prices, contracted selling prices, or a market price equivalent. Interest rate and foreign currency contracts are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The Company obtains dealer quotations to value its interest rate contracts. IRLCs are measured based on valuation techniques that consider loan type, underlying loan amount, maturity date, note rate, loan program, and expected settlement date, with Level 3 inputs for the servicing release premium and pull-through rate. These measurements are adjusted at the loan level to consider the servicing release premium and loan pricing adjustment specific to each loan. The base value is then adjusted for estimated pull-through rates. The pull-through rate and servicing fee multiple are unobservable inputs based on historical experience. Equity warrants are measured using a Black-Scholes option pricing model based on contractual strike price, expected term, the risk-free interest rate, and volatility, adjusted for a lack of marketability. The volatility input is considered Level 3 as the underlying equity is not publicly traded and is determined using comparable publicly traded companies.
Junior subordinated debt: The Company estimates the fair value of its junior subordinated debt using a discounted cash flow model which incorporates the effect of the Company’s own credit risk in the fair value of the liabilities (Level 3). The Company’s cash flow assumptions are based on contractual cash flows as the Company anticipates it will pay the debt according to its contractual terms.
The fair value of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis was determined using the following inputs:

Junior subordinated debt | | $ | 63 | | | Discounted cash flow | | Implied credit rating of the Company | | 8.92 | % |
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s junior subordinated debt as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was the implied credit risk for the Company. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the
implied credit risk spread was calculated as the difference between the average of the 10 and 15-year 'BB' rated financial indexes over the corresponding swap indexes.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company estimates the discount rate at 8.60%, which represents an implied credit spread of 3.27% plus three-month SOFR (5.33%). As of December 31, 2023, the Company estimated the discount rate at 8.92%, which was a 3.59% credit spread plus three-month SOFR (5.33%).

Fair value on a nonrecurring basis
Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. That is, the assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of credit deterioration). The following table presents such assets carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheet by caption and by level within the ASC 825 hierarchy:

Loans HFI: Loans measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include collateral dependent loans. The specific reserves for these loans are based on collateral value, net of estimated disposition costs and other identified quantitative inputs. Collateral value is determined based on independent third-party appraisals or internally-developed discounted cash flow analyses. Appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches, including comparable sales and the income approach. Fair value is determined, where possible, using market prices derived from an appraisal or evaluation, which are considered to be Level 2. However, certain assumptions and unobservable inputs are often used by the appraiser, therefore qualifying the assets as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. In addition, when adjustments are made to an appraised value to reflect various factors such as the age of the appraisal or known changes in the market or the collateral, such valuation inputs are considered unobservable and the fair value measurement is categorized as a Level 3 measurement. Internal discounted cash flow analyses are also utilized to estimate the fair value of these loans, which considers internally-developed, unobservable inputs such as discount rates, default rates, and loss severity.
Total Level 3 collateral dependent loans had an estimated fair value of $348 million and $379 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, net of a specific ACL of $28 million and $10 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Other assets acquired through foreclosure: Other assets acquired through foreclosure consist of properties acquired as a result of, or in-lieu-of, foreclosure. These assets are initially reported at the fair value determined by independent appraisals using appraised value less estimated cost to sell. Such properties are generally re-appraised every 12 months. Costs relating to the development or improvement of the assets are capitalized and costs relating to holding the assets are charged to expense.
Fair value is determined, where possible, using market prices derived from an appraisal or evaluation, which are considered to be Level 2. However, certain assumptions and unobservable inputs are often used by the appraiser, therefore qualifying the assets as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. When significant adjustments are based on unobservable inputs, such as when a current appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the resulting fair value measurement has been categorized as a Level 3 measurement. The Company had $8 million of such assets at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Interest rate risk
The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk to the Company’s earnings and capital from changes in interest rate levels) as a result of its normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, as well as its future net interest income, will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company.
Interest rate risk exposure is measured using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the Company's change in EVE and net interest income resulting from hypothetical changes in interest rates. If potential changes to EVE and net interest income resulting from hypothetical interest rate changes are not within the limits established by the BOD, the BOD may direct management to adjust the asset and liability mix to bring interest rate risk within BOD-approved limits.
WAB has an ALCO charged with managing interest rate risk within the BOD-approved limits. Limits are structured to preclude an interest rate risk profile which does not conform to both management and BOD risk tolerances without BOD and ALCO approval. Interest rate risk is also evaluated at the Parent level, which is reported to the BOD and its Finance and Investment Committee.
Fair value of commitments
The estimated fair value of letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 approximates zero as there have been no significant changes in borrower creditworthiness. Loan commitments on which the committed interest rates are less than the current market rate are insignificant at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
16. SEGMENTS
The Company's reportable segments are aggregated with a focus on products and services offered and consist of three reportable segments:
•Commercial: provides commercial banking and treasury management products and services to small and middle-market businesses, specialized banking services to sophisticated commercial institutions and investors within niche industries, as well as financial services to the real estate industry.
•Consumer Related: offers both commercial banking services to enterprises in consumer-related sectors and consumer banking services, such as residential mortgage banking.
•Corporate & Other: consists of the Company's investment portfolio, Corporate borrowings and other related items, income and expense items not allocated to other reportable segments, and inter-segment eliminations.
The Company's segment reporting process begins with the assignment of all loan and deposit accounts directly to the segments where these products are originated and/or serviced. Equity capital is assigned to each segment based on the risk profile of their assets and liabilities. With the exception of goodwill, which is assigned a 100% weighting, equity capital allocations ranged from 0% to 20% during the period. Any excess or deficient equity not allocated to segments based on risk is assigned to the Corporate & Other segment.
Net interest income, provision for credit losses, and non-interest expense amounts are recorded in their respective segments to the extent the amounts are directly attributable to those segments. Net interest income is recorded in each segment on a TEB with a corresponding increase in income tax expense, which is eliminated in the Corporate & Other segment.
Further, net interest income of a reportable segment includes a funds transfer pricing process that matches assets and liabilities with similar interest rate sensitivity and maturity characteristics. Using this funds transfer pricing methodology, liquidity is transferred between users and providers. A net user of funds has lending/investing in excess of deposits/borrowings and a net provider of funds has deposits/borrowings in excess of lending/investing. A segment that is a user of funds is charged for the use of funds, while a provider of funds is credited through funds transfer pricing, which is determined based on the average estimated life of the assets or liabilities in the portfolio. Residual funds transfer pricing mismatches are allocable to the Corporate & Other segment and presented in net interest income.
The net income amount for each reportable segment is further derived by the use of expense allocations. Certain expenses not directly attributable to a specific segment are allocated across all segments based on key metrics, such as number of employees, number of transactions processed for loans and deposits, and average loan and deposit balances. These types of expenses include information technology, operations, human resources, finance, risk management, credit administration, legal, and marketing.
Income taxes are applied to each segment based on estimated effective tax rates. Any difference in the corporate tax rate and the aggregate effective tax rates in the segments are adjusted in the Corporate & Other segment.

Recent Banking Industry and Market Developments
Banking Industry
In November 2023, the FDIC approved a final rule implementing a special assessment to recover losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund associated with protecting uninsured depositors following the closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. The assessment base is equal to an institution’s estimated uninsured deposits as of December 31, 2022, adjusted to exclude the first $5 billion of estimated uninsured deposits. The special assessment will be collected over an eight-quarter collection period, at a quarterly rate of 3.36 basis points, with the first quarterly assessment period beginning on January 1, 2024. The amount of the total special assessment is subject to adjustment and will not be finalized by the FDIC until after termination of the receiverships. The Company recognized a reduction to expense of $6.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and a net charge of $11.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 due to adjustments to the loss estimate.
Market Developments
The Company's loan portfolio includes significant credit exposure to the CRE market, with CRE related loans comprising approximately 31% and 33% of total loans at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Approximately 16% of CRE loans, excluding construction and land loans, were owner occupied at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and approximately 5% were non-owner occupied office loans at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. As elevated focus on the evolving industry dynamics facing the CRE market have emerged over the past year, the Company has been proactive in establishing enhanced monitoring policies and procedures as it relates to its CRE loans and has undertaken actions to limit growth of its CRE portfolio, as further discussed in “Item 1. Business, Lending Activities – Asset Quality” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized gross charge-offs on CRE non-owner occupied loans totaling $17.6 million, which related to one office property. While the Company believes that its increased monitoring efforts to provide earlier identification of potential stressed loans and proactive engagement with borrowers has helped the Company assess its credit related exposure to this portfolio segment and establish adequate reserve levels, CRE market conditions may worsen, which could result in deterioration of asset quality in this portfolio.

For all banks and bank holding companies, asset quality plays a significant role in the overall financial condition of the institution and results of operations. The Company measures asset quality in terms of nonaccrual loans as a percentage of gross loans and net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans. Net charge-offs are calculated as the difference between charged-off loans and recovery payments received on previously charged-off loans. The following table summarizes the Company's key asset quality metrics for loans HFI:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Asset and Deposit Growth
The Company’s assets and liabilities are comprised primarily of loans and deposits. Therefore, the ability to originate new loans and attract new deposits is fundamental to the Company’s growth.
Total assets increased to $80.6 billion at June 30, 2024 from $70.9 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase in total assets of $9.7 billion, or 13.7%, was primarily driven by an increase in deposits, which contributed to increases in investment securities and cash of $4.6 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively, and funded HFI loan growth of $2.1 billion. Loans HFI increased by $2.1 billion, or 4.2%, to $52.4 billion as of June 30, 2024, compared to $50.3 billion as of December 31, 2023. Commercial and industrial loans primarily drove the increase in loans HFI, increasing $2.6 billion from December 31, 2023, which was partially offset by decreases in residential real estate and construction and land development loans of $333 million and $177 million, respectively. Loans HFS increased $605 million from $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2023 primairly due to an increase in agency-conforming and non-EBO loans.
Total deposits increased $10.9 billion, or 19.7%, to $66.2 billion as of June 30, 2024 from $55.3 billion as of December 31, 2023. By type, the increase in deposits from December 31, 2023 was driven by an increase of $7.0 billion in non-interest bearing deposits, $2.3 billion in savings and money market accounts, $1.4 billion in interest bearing demand deposits, and $262 million in certificates of deposit.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following discussion and analysis contains financial information determined by methods other than those prescribed by GAAP. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company's performance. Management believes presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a complete understanding of the operating results of the Company. Since the presentation of these non-GAAP performance measures and their impact differ between companies, these non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
Pre-Provision Net Revenue
Banking regulations define PPNR as the sum of net interest income and non-interest income less expenses before adjusting for loss provisions. Management believes that this is an important metric as it illustrates the underlying performance of the Company, it enables investors and others to assess the Company's ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through the credit cycle, and provides consistent reporting with a key metric used by bank regulatory agencies.
The following table shows the components used in the calculation of PPNR:

Regulatory Capital
The following table presents certain financial measures related to regulatory capital under Basel III, which includes CET1 and total capital. The FRB and other banking regulators use CET1 and total capital as a basis for assessing a bank's capital adequacy; therefore, management believes it is useful to assess financial condition and capital adequacy using this same basis. Specifically, the total capital ratio takes into consideration the risk levels of assets and off-balance sheet financial instruments. In addition, management believes that the classified assets to CET1 plus allowance measure is an important regulatory metric for assessing asset quality.
As permitted by the regulatory capital rules, the Company elected the CECL transition option that delayed the estimated impact on regulatory capital resulting from the adoption of CECL over a five-year transition period ending December 31, 2024. Accordingly, capital ratios and amounts for 2024 include a 25% capital benefit that resulted from the increased ACL related to the adoption of ASC 326, compared to a 50% capital benefit for 2023.

Comparison of interest income, interest expense and net interest margin
The Company's primary source of revenue is interest income. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, interest income was $1.1 billion, an increase of $146.7 million, or 14.7%, compared to $1.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily the result of a $101.7 million increase in interest income from loans HFI that was driven by higher average HFI loan balances of $4.0 billion and higher yields and a $78.1 million increase in interest income from investment securities due primarily to an increase in the average investment balance of $6.3 billion. The increase in interest income was also the result of a $29.1 million increase in interest income from cash and other, largely driven by higher average cash and other balances of $1.4 billion. These increases were partially offset by a $62.2 million decrease in interest income from loans HFS driven by lower average HFS loan balances of $3.5 billion.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, interest income was $2.2 billion, an increase of $232.8 million, or 11.8%, compared to $2.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily the result of a $133.1 million increase in interest income from loans HFI driven by higher rates coupled with a $900 million increase in the average HFI loan balance and a $126.0 million increase in investment income from investment securities due primarily to an increase in the average investment balance of $5.2 billion. These increases were offset in part by a decrease in interest income from loans HFS of $54.4 million driven by a lower average HFS loan balance of $1.6 billion.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, interest expense was $490.9 million, an increase of $40.4 million, or 9.0%, compared to $450.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in interest expense was due to an increase in interest expense on deposits of $159.2 million driven by an $11.6 billion increase in the average interest-bearing deposit balance and increased interest rates, partially offset by a $118.9 million decrease in interest expense on total borrowings resulting from a decrease in average borrowing balances of $8.4 billion.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, interest expense was $947.0 million, an increase of $137.5 million, or 17.0%, compared to $809.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Interest expense on deposits increased $308.2 million for the same period driven by a $9.6 billion increase in average interest-bearing deposits and increased interest rates, partially offset by a $171.0 million decrease in interest expense on total borrowings resulting from a decrease in average borrowing balances of $6.4 billion.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, net interest income totaled $656.6 million, an increase of $106.3 million, or 19.3%, compared to $550.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net interest income was driven by an $8.2 billion increase in average interest-earning assets and related yields, partially offset by an increase in funding costs driven by the higher rate environment. The increase in net interest margin of 21 basis points to 3.63% is largely the result of an increase in both the average balances and rates of loans HFI, investment securities, and deposits, partially offset by a decrease in the average loans HFS balance compared to the same period in 2023.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net interest income was $1.3 billion, an increase of $95.3 million, or 8.2%, compared to $1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net interest income reflects a $5.0 billion increase in average interest-earning assets and yields on interest-earnings assets, partially offset by an increase of $3.2 billion in average interest-bearing liabilities. The increase in net interest margin of 1 basis point to 3.61% is the result of a higher rate environment as explained in the above paragraphs.
Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses in each period is reflected as a reduction in earnings for that period and includes amounts related to funded loans, unfunded loan commitments, and investment securities. The provision is equal to the amount required to maintain the ACL at a level that is adequate to absorb estimated lifetime credit losses inherent in the loan and investment securities portfolios based on remaining contractual maturity, adjusted for estimated prepayments as of each period end. The Company's CECL models incorporate historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts in measuring expected credit losses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $37.1 million and $52.3 million, respectively, compared to $21.8 million and $41.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The provision for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 is primarily reflective of net charge-offs of $22.8 million and $32.6 million, respectively, and loan growth.
Non-interest Income
The following table presents a summary of non-interest income:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Total non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 decreased $3.8 million. The decrease in non-interest income from the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by a decrease in service charges and fees of $10.0 million and a net decrease in mortgage banking income of $1.5 million as net gain on loan origination and sale activities decreased $15.5 million from lower production volume and spreads, partially offset by an increase in net loan servicing revenue of $14.0 million. The Company's balance sheet repositioning actions in the prior year also partially offset these decreases as sales activity related to loans and investment securities have normalized in the current period.
Total non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $184.1 million compared to the same period in 2023. Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was impacted by the Company's balance sheet repositioning actions, which were largely completed by the end of 2023. These actions resulted in losses of $135.1 million related to fair value adjustments from transferring loans from HFI to HFS and losses on sales of investment securities of $26.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, which did not reoccur in the current period.

Total non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $99.4 million compared to the same period in 2023. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily driven by an increase in deposit costs related to higher ECR balances, which increased from $14.9 billion as of June 30, 2023 to $25.0 billion as of June 30, 2024, and higher ECR rates.
Total non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $233.3 million compared to the same period in 2023. The increase in non-interest expense for this period was primarily driven by an increase in deposit and insurance costs. Higher ECR balances and rates drove the increase in deposit costs. The increase in insurance costs is due to elevated insured and brokered deposit levels and a net charge of $11.6 million related to the FDIC special assessment recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was 21.9% and 17.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 22.7% and 19.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rates for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to an increase in nondeductible insurance premiums and a decrease in expected investment tax credit benefits during 2024.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Total assets increased $9.7 billion to $80.6 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $70.9 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase in total assets was primarily driven by an increase in investment securities and cash of $4.6 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively. Loans HFI also increased $2.1 billion, or 4.2%, to $52.4 billion as of June 30, 2024, compared to $50.3 billion as of December 31, 2023. The increase in loans HFI from December 31, 2023 was driven by a $2.6 billion increase in commercial and industrial loans from December 31, 2023, partially offset by decreases in residential real estate and construction and land development loans of $333 million and $177 million, respectively. Loans HFS increased $605 million from $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2023 due to an increase in agency conforming and non-EBO loans.
Total liabilities increased $9.4 billion to $74.2 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $64.8 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase in liabilities is due primarily to an increase in total deposits of $10.9 billion, or 19.7%, to $66.2 billion. By type, the increase in deposits from December 31, 2023 was driven by increases of $7.0 billion in non-interest bearing deposits, $2.3 billion in savings and money market accounts, $1.4 billion in interest bearing demand deposits, and $262 million in certificates of deposit. Other borrowings decreased $1.6 billion from December 31, 2023 primarily due to a decrease in short-term borrowings.
Total stockholders’ equity of $6.3 billion at June 30, 2024 increased by $256 million, or 4.2%, from December 31, 2023. The increase in stockholders' equity is primarily a function of net income, offset by quarterly dividends to common and preferred stockholders, and unrealized fair value losses on AFS securities, recorded net of tax in other comprehensive income.
Investment securities
Debt securities are classified at the time of acquisition as either HTM, AFS, or trading based upon various factors, including asset/liability management strategies, liquidity and profitability objectives, and regulatory requirements. HTM securities are carried at amortized cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. AFS securities are debt securities that may be sold prior to maturity based upon asset/liability management decisions. Investment securities classified as AFS are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses on these securities recorded in AOCI in stockholders’ equity, net of tax. Amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts on MBS is periodically adjusted for estimated prepayments. Trading securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses on these securities included in current period earnings.
The Company's investment securities portfolio is utilized as collateral for borrowings, required collateral for public deposits and repurchase agreements, and to manage liquidity, capital, and interest rate risk.
The following table summarizes the carrying value of the Company's investment securities portfolio:

The increases in Residential MBS issued by GSEs and U.S. Treasury securities from December 31, 2023 are primarily due the Company's efforts to shift its investment portfolio mix toward high quality liquid assets, which also included the sale of CLOs.
Loans HFS
The Company purchases and originates residential mortgage loans through its AmeriHome mortgage banking business channel that are held for sale or securitization. As of June 30, 2024, loans HFS totaled $2.0 billion, compared to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of $605 million primarily related to an increase in agency-conforming and non-EBO loans.

Total loans HFI, net of allowance | | $ | 52,078 | | | $ | 49,960 | | | $ | 2,118 | |
Loans classified as HFI are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, adjusted for net deferred fees and costs, premiums and discounts on acquired and purchased loans, and an ACL. Net deferred loan fees of $105 million and $108 million reduced the carrying value of loans as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Net unamortized purchase premiums on acquired and purchased loans of $172 million and $177 million increased the carrying value of loans as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Concentrations of Lending Activities
The Company monitors concentrations of lending activities at the product and borrower relationship level. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no borrower relationships at both the commitment and funded loan level exceeded 5% of total loans HFI.
Commercial and industrial loans made up 41% and 38% of total loans HFI as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
In addition, the Company's loan portfolio includes significant credit exposure to the CRE market as CRE related loans accounted for approximately 31% and 33% of total loans at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 respectively. Non-owner occupied CRE loans are CRE loans for which the primary source of repayment is rental income generated from the collateral property. Owner occupied CRE loans are loans secured by owner occupied non-farm nonresidential properties for which the primary source of repayment (more than 50%) is the cash flow from the ongoing operations and activities conducted by the borrower who owns the property. These CRE loans are secured by multi-family residential properties, professional offices, industrial facilities, retail centers, hotels, and other commercial properties.

Approximately $2.5 billion, or 4.7%, of total loans HFI consisted of CRE non-owner occupied office loans as of June 30, 2024, compared to $2.4 billion, or 4.7%, as of December 31, 2023. Of the non-owner occupied office loan balance as of June 30, 2024, $235 million is scheduled to mature in the remainder of 2024. These office loans primarily consist of shorter-term bridge loans that enable borrowers to reposition or redevelop projects with more modern standards attractive to in-office employers in today’s environment, including enhanced on-site amenities. The vast majority of these projects are located in suburban locations in the Company's core footprint states (Arizona, California, and Nevada), with central business district and midtown exposure totaling approximately 2% and 10% of office loans as of June 30, 2024, respectively.
The office loan portfolio largely consists of value-add loans that require significant up-front cash equity contributions from institutional sponsors and large regional and national developers. The properties underlying these loans have stable business trends and low vacancy rates. To a large extent, the financing structures of these loans do not carry junior liens or mezzanine debt, which enables maximum flexibility when working with clients and sponsors. In addition to adhering to conservative underwriting standards, asset-specific credit risk is mitigated through continued sponsor support of projects by re-appraisal rights of the Company, re-margining requirements and ongoing debt service, and debt yield covenants.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 16% of the Company's CRE loans, excluding construction and land loans, were owner occupied, with substantially all of these loans secured by first liens and had an initial loan-to-value ratio of generally not more than 75%.
Non-performing Assets
Total non-performing loans increased $76 million to $486 million at June 30, 2024, from $410 million at December 31, 2023.

Mortgage Servicing Rights
The fair value of the Company's MSRs related to residential mortgage loans totaled $1.1 billion as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The following is a summary of the UPB of loans underlying the Company's MSR portfolio by type:

Total unpaid principal balance of loans | | $ | 68,215 | | | $ | 68,647 | |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess consideration paid for net assets acquired in a business combination over their fair value. Goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination that are determined to have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization, but are subsequently evaluated for impairment at least annually. The Company has goodwill and intangible assets totaling $664 million and $669 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The Company performs its annual goodwill and intangible assets impairment tests as of October 1 each year, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no events or circumstances that indicated an interim impairment test of goodwill or other intangible assets was necessary. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company evaluated whether the effects from the bank failures in 2023 gave rise to a triggering event and elected to perform a Step 0 goodwill impairment assessment, which included assessing the financial performance of the Company and analyzing qualitative factors applicable to the Company. Based on this assessment, the Company determined that it was more likely than not the fair value of the Company and its reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values as of June 30, 2023.
Deferred Tax Assets
As of June 30, 2024, the net DTA balance totaled $276 million, a decrease of $11 million from $287 million at December 31, 2023. This overall decrease in the net DTA was primarily the result of an increase in DTLs related to MSRs that were partially offset by decreases in the fair market value of AFS securities, paired with increases in credit carryovers and state net operating losses.
Deposits
Deposits are the primary source for funding the Company's asset growth. Total deposits increased to $66.2 billion at June 30, 2024, from $55.3 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of $10.9 billion, or 19.7%. By deposit type, the increase in deposits is attributable to increases of $7.0 billion in non-interest bearing deposits, $2.3 billion in savings and money market accounts, $1.4 billion in interest bearing demand deposits, and $262 million in certificates of deposit.
WAB is a participant in the IntraFi Network, a network that offers deposit placement services such as CDARS and ICS, which offer products that qualify large deposits for FDIC insurance. At June 30, 2024, the Company had $13.1 billion of these reciprocal deposits, compared to $13.3 billion at December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company also had wholesale brokered deposits of $6.2 billion and $6.6 billion, respectively.
In addition, deposits for which the Company provides account holders with earnings credits or referral fees totaled $25.0 billion and $17.8 billion at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company incurred $167.4 million and $87.8 million in deposit related costs on these deposits during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $298.6 million and $173.4 million, respectively, in deposit related costs on these deposits. The increase in these costs from the prior year is due to an increase in average deposit balances eligible for earnings credits or referral fees as well as an increase in earnings credit rates. These costs are reported as Deposit costs in non-interest expense.
The average balances and weighted average rates paid on deposits are presented below:

Other Borrowings
Short-Term Borrowings
The Company utilizes short-term borrowed funds to support short-term liquidity needs. The majority of these short-term borrowed funds consist of advances from the FHLB, repurchase agreements, and federal funds purchased from correspondent banks or the FHLB. The Company’s borrowing capacity with the FHLB is determined based on collateral pledged, generally consisting of securities and loans. In addition, the Company has repurchase facilities, collateralized by securities, including assets sold under agreements to repurchase, which are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction, and may require additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying assets. Total short-term borrowings decreased $1.6 billion to $5.2 billion at June 30, 2024 from $6.8 billion at December 31, 2023. The decrease was driven by decreases in FHLB advances of $1.1 billion, repurchase agreements of $374 million, and federal funds purchased of $175 million.
Long-Term Borrowings
The Company's long-term borrowings consist of credit linked notes, inclusive of issuance costs. At June 30, 2024, the carrying value of long-term borrowings was $436 million, compared to $446 million at December 31, 2023.
Qualifying Debt
Qualifying debt consists of subordinated debt and junior subordinated debt, inclusive of issuance costs and fair market value adjustments. At June 30, 2024, the carrying value of qualifying debt was $897 million, compared to $895 million at December 31, 2023.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements could trigger certain mandatory or discretionary actions that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s business and financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items (discussed in "Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies" to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements) 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.
As permitted by the regulatory capital rules, the Company elected the CECL transition option that delayed the estimated impact on regulatory capital resulting from the adoption of CECL over a five-year transition period ending December 31, 2024. Accordingly, capital ratios and amounts in 2024 include a 25% capital benefit that resulted from the increased ACL related to the adoption of ASC 326, compared to a 50% capital benefit for 2023.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company and the Bank exceeded the capital levels necessary to be classified as well-capitalized, as defined by the various banking agencies. The actual capital amounts and ratios for the Company and the Bank are presented in the following tables:

The Company and the Bank are also subject to liquidity and other regulatory requirements as administered by the federal banking agencies. These agencies have broad powers and at their discretion, could limit or prohibit the Company's payment of dividends, payment of certain debt service and issuance of capital stock and debt as they deem appropriate and as such, actions by the agencies could have a direct material effect on the Company’s business and financial statements.
The Company is also required to maintain specified levels of capital to remain in good standing with certain federal government agencies, including FNMA, FHLMC, GNMA, and HUD. These capital requirements are generally tied to the unpaid balances of loans included in the Company's servicing portfolio or loan production volume. Noncompliance with these capital requirements can result in various remedial actions up to, and including, removing the Company's ability to sell loans to and service loans on behalf of the respective agency. The Company believes that it is in compliance with these requirements as of June 30, 2024.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Critical accounting estimates are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. The critical accounting estimates upon which the Company's financial condition and results of operations depend, and which involve the most complex subjective decisions or assessments, are included in the discussion entitled "Critical Accounting Policies" in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and all amendments thereto, as filed with the SEC. There were no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Liquidity
Liquidity is the ongoing ability to accommodate liability maturities and deposit withdrawals, fund asset growth and business operations, and meet contractual obligations through unconstrained access to funding at reasonable market rates. Liquidity management involves forecasting funding requirements and maintaining sufficient capacity to meet the needs and accommodate fluctuations in asset and liability levels due to changes in the Company's business operations or unanticipated events.
The ability to have readily available funds sufficient to repay fully maturing liabilities is of primary importance to depositors, creditors, and regulators. The Company's liquidity, represented by cash and amounts due from banks, federal funds sold, loans HFS, and non-pledged marketable securities, is a result of the Company's operating, investing, and financing activities and related cash flows. The Company actively monitors and manages liquidity, and no less than quarterly will estimate probable liquidity needs on a 12-month horizon. Liquidity needs can also be met through short-term borrowings or the disposition of short-term assets.
The following table presents the available and outstanding balances on the Company's lines of credit:

The Company has a formal liquidity policy and, in the opinion of management, its liquid assets are considered adequate to meet financial obligations and support client activity during normal and stressed operating conditions. At June 30, 2024, there were $13.1 billion in liquid assets, comprised of $3.3 billion in cash on deposit at the FRB and $9.8 billion in securities not currently used as collateral for borrowings or other purposes. At December 31, 2023, the Company maintained $6.9 billion in liquid assets, comprised of $785 million in cash on deposit at the FRB and $6.1 billion in liquid securities not currently used as collateral for borrowings or other purposes.
The Parent maintains liquidity that would be sufficient to fund its operations and certain non-bank affiliate operations for an extended period should funding from normal sources be disrupted. In the Company's analysis of Parent liquidity, it is assumed the Parent is unable to generate funds from additional debt or equity issuances, receives no dividend income from subsidiaries and does not pay dividends to stockholders, while continuing to make non-discretionary payments needed to maintain operations and repayment of contractual principal and interest payments owed by the Parent and affiliated companies. Under this scenario, the amount of time the Parent and its non-bank subsidiary can operate and meet all obligations before the current liquid assets are exhausted is considered as part of the Parent liquidity analysis. Management believes the Parent maintains adequate liquidity capacity to operate without additional funding from new sources for over twelve months.
WAB maintains sufficient funding capacity to address large increases in funding requirements, such as deposit outflows. This capacity is comprised of liquidity derived from a reduction in asset levels and various secured funding sources. On a long-term basis, the Company’s liquidity will be met by changing the relative distribution of its asset portfolios (for example, by reducing investment or loan volumes, or selling or encumbering assets). Further, the Company can increase liquidity by soliciting higher levels of deposit accounts through promotional activities and/or borrowing from correspondent banks, the FHLB of San Francisco, and the FRB. At June 30, 2024, the Company's long-term liquidity needs primarily relate to funds required to support loan originations, commitments, and deposit withdrawals, which can be met by cash flows from investment payments and maturities, and investment sales, if necessary.
The Company’s liquidity is comprised of three primary classifications: 1) cash flows provided by operating activities; 2) cash flows used in investing activities; and 3) cash flows provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by or used in operating activities consists primarily of net income, adjusted for changes in certain other asset and liability accounts and certain non-cash income and expense items, such as the provision for credit losses, investment and other amortization and depreciation. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, net cash (used in) provided by operating activities was $(1.1) billion and $(100.1) million, respectively.
The Company's primary investing activities are the origination of real estate and commercial loans, the collection of repayments of these loans, and the purchase and sale of securities. The Company's net cash used in investing activities has been primarily influenced by its loan and securities activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company's cash balance decreased by $2.2 billion as a result of a net increase in loans, compared to a increase in cash of $1.6 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 from a net decrease in loans. A net increase in investment securities of $4.4 billion and $1.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, partially offset the increase to the Company's cash balance during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.
Net cash provided by financing activities has been impacted significantly by deposit levels. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, net deposits increased $10.9 billion, compared to a decrease in net deposits of $2.6 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Fluctuations in core deposit levels may increase the Company's need for liquidity as certificates of deposit mature or are withdrawn before maturity, and as non-maturity deposits, such as checking and savings account balances, are withdrawn. Additionally, the Company is exposed to the risk that customers with large deposit balances will withdraw all or a portion of such deposits, due in part to the FDIC limitations on the amount of insurance coverage provided to depositors. To mitigate the uninsured deposit risk, the Company participates in the CDARS and ICS programs, which allow an individual customer to invest up to $50 million and $225 million, respectively, through one participating financial institution or, a combined total of $275 million per individual customer, with the entire amount being covered by FDIC insurance. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has $1.6 billion of CDARS and $10.0 billion of ICS deposits.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company has $6.2 billion of wholesale brokered deposits outstanding, Brokered deposits are generally considered to be deposits that have been received from a third party who is engaged in the business of placing deposits on behalf of others. A traditional deposit broker will direct deposits to the banking institution offering the highest interest rate available. Federal banking laws and regulations place restrictions on depository institutions regarding brokered deposits because of the general concern that these deposits are not relationship based and are at a greater risk of being withdrawn and placed on deposit at another institution offering a higher interest rate, thus posing liquidity risk for institutions that gather brokered deposits in significant amounts.
Federal and state banking regulations place certain restrictions on dividends paid. The total amount of dividends which may be paid at any date is generally limited to the retained earnings of the bank. Dividends paid by WAB to the Parent would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, WAB paid dividends to the Parent of $60 million and $120 million, respectively. Subsequent to June 30, 2024, WAB paid dividends to the Parent of $60 million.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Market risk is the risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes in market prices and rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity prices. The Company's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in its lending, investing, and deposit taking activities. To that end, management actively monitors and manages the Company's interest rate risk exposure. The Company generally manages its interest rate sensitivity by evaluating re-pricing opportunities on its earning assets to those on its funding liabilities.
Management uses various asset/liability strategies to manage the re-pricing characteristics of the Company's assets and liabilities, all of which are designed to ensure that exposure to interest rate fluctuations is within the Company's guidelines of acceptable levels of risk-taking. Hedging strategies, including the terms and pricing of loans and deposits and management of the deployment of its securities, are used to reduce mismatches in interest rate re-pricing opportunities of portfolio assets and their funding sources. Derivatives in a hedging relationship are also used to minimize the Company's exposure to changes in benchmark interest rates and volatility of net interest income and EVE to interest rate fluctuations, with their impact reflected in the model results discussed below.
Interest rate risk is addressed by ALCO, which includes members of executive management, finance, and operations. ALCO monitors interest rate risk by analyzing the potential impact on the net EVE and net interest income from potential changes in interest rates and considers the impact of alternative strategies or changes in balance sheet structure. The Company manages its balance sheet in part to keep the potential impact on EVE and net interest income within acceptable ranges despite changes in interest rates.
The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed at least quarterly by ALCO. Interest rate risk exposure is measured using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine its change in both EVE and net interest income in the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates. If potential changes to EVE and net interest income resulting from hypothetical interest rate changes are not within the limits established by the BOD or, ALCO determines that interest rate exposures should be reduced, ALCO will either take hedging actions or adjust the asset and liability mix to bring interest rate risk within BOD-approved limits or in line with ALCO's proposed reduction. ALCO may also decide the best course of action for a limit breach is to accept the breach and present justification to the BOD. If the BOD does not agree to accept the limit breach, it will direct ALCO to remediate the breach. The Company's net interest income and EVE exposure limits are approved by the BOD on an annual basis, or more often if market conditions warrant. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, there have been no changes to the Company's exposure limits.
Net Interest Income Simulation. To measure interest rate risk at June 30, 2024, the Company used a simulation model to project changes in net interest income that result from forecasted changes in interest rates. This analysis calculates the difference between a baseline net interest income forecast using current yield curves, compared to forecasted net income resulting from an immediate parallel shift in rates upward or downward, along with other scenarios directed by ALCO. The income simulation model includes various assumptions regarding re-pricing relationships for each of the Company's products. Many of the Company's assets are variable rate loans, which are assumed to re-price at the next rate re-set period and, proportional to the change in market rates, depending on their contracted index, including the impact of caps or floors. Some loans and investments contain contractual prepayment features (embedded options) and, accordingly, the simulation model incorporates prepayment assumptions. The Company's non-term deposit products re-price with a certain beta to underlying market rate changes. The Company regularly conducts sensitivity analysis for this assumption to determine the impact on the interest rate risk position. These betas are derived separately by deposit product and are based on both observed and projected market rate and balance trends. Current product deposit beta assumptions range between 45% to 83%, depending on product, with an average interest bearing deposit beta of 62%, inclusive of ECR costs.
This analysis illustrates the impact of changes in net interest income for the given set of rate changes and assumptions. It does not account for all factors that could impact the Company's results, including changes by management to mitigate interest rate changes or secondary factors, such as changes to the Company's credit risk profile as interest rates change. The results will also be impacted by seasonality in the balance sheet. Furthermore, loan prepayment rate estimates and spread relationships change regularly. Interest rate changes impact actual loan prepayment speeds and these changes may result in differences in the market estimates incorporated in this analysis. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and as a result, actual results may differ from simulated results due to factors such as timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions, customer behavior, management strategies, and changes that vary significantly from the modeled assumptions may have a significant effect on the Company's actual net interest income.
This simulation model assesses the changes in net interest income that would occur in response to an instantaneous and sustained increase or decrease (shock) in market interest rates based on a dynamic balance sheet. The Company’s NII sensitivity
assumptions have been updated to include more granular deposit beta assumptions by line of business. The Company continues to evaluate the scenarios that are presented as interest rates change and will update these scenario disclosures as appropriate.

| | | | | | | | | | |
At June 30, 2024, our net interest income exposure for the next twelve months related to these hypothetical changes in market interest rates was within our current guidelines.
Economic Value of Equity. The Company measures the impact of market interest rate changes on the NPV of estimated cash flows from its assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet items, defined as EVE, using a simulation model. The Company's simulation model focuses on parallel interest rate shocks and takes into account assumptions related to loan prepayment trends that are sourced using a combination of third-party prepayment models and internal historical experience, terminal maturity for non-maturity deposits, decay attrition, and pricing sensitivity derived from the Company's data and other internally-developed analysis and models. These assumptions are reviewed at least annually and are adjusted periodically to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's balance sheet composition. As simulated model results are based on a number of assumptions outlined above, including forecasted market conditions, actual amounts may differ significantly from the projections set forth below should market conditions vary from the underlying assumptions.
This simulation model assesses the changes in the market value of interest rate sensitive financial instruments that would occur in response to an instantaneous and sustained increase or decrease (shock) in market interest rates. The Company's EVE model assumptions have also been updated to include more granular deposit beta and attrition assumptions by line of business. The Company continues to evaluate the scenarios that are presented as interest rates change and will update these scenario disclosures as appropriate.
The following table shows the Company's projected change in EVE for this set of rate shocks at June 30, 2024:
Economic Value of Equity
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Interest Rate Scenario |
| | Down 200 | | Down 100 | | | | Up 100 | | Up 200 | | |

| | | | (change in basis points from Base) |
% Change | | 14.2 | % | | 8.3 | % | | | | (8.0) | % | | (14.5) | % | | |
At June 30, 2024, the Company's EVE exposure related to these hypothetical changes in market interest rates was within the Company's current guidelines.
Derivative Contracts. In the normal course of business, the Company uses derivative instruments to meet the needs of its customers and manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. For additional discussion on how derivatives in a hedging relationship (fair value hedges) are used to manage the Company's interest rate risk, see "Note 11. Derivatives and Hedging Activities" to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
