UNIVEST CORPORATION OF PENNSYLVANIA AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Univest Corporation of Pennsylvania (the Corporation or Univest) and its wholly owned subsidiaries; the Corporation’s primary subsidiary is Univest Bank and Trust Co. (the Bank). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations for interim financial information. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods presented. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2017. It is suggested that these unaudited consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which was filed with the SEC on March 4, 2016.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes include fair value measurement of investment securities available-for-sale and assessment for impairment of certain investment securities, reserve for loan and lease losses, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, servicing rights, deferred tax assets and liabilities, benefit plans and stock-based compensation expense.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-07, "Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost." The amendments in this ASU require that an employer that sponsors defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans, present the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. Other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. If a separate line item or items are not used, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net benefit cost must be disclosed. The amendments also allow only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization, when applicable. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods, or January 1, 2018 for the Corporation. This ASU should be applied retrospectively for the presentation requirements and prospectively for the capitalization of the service cost component requirements. The amendments allow a practical expedient that permits an employer to use the amounts disclosed in its pension and other postretirement benefit plan note for the prior comparative periods as the estimation basis for applying the retrospective presentation requirements. Disclosure that the practical expedient was used is required. The Corporation does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." This ASU eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the new guidance, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. Public business entities that are SEC filers should adopt the amendments in this ASU for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, or for the Corporation's goodwill impairment test in 2020. Early adoption is permitted for

Table of Contents

goodwill impairment tests with measurement dates after January 1, 2017. The Corporation does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business." The amendments in this ASU clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the current implementation guidance in Topic 805, there are three elements of a business – inputs, processes, and outputs. While an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a “set”) that is a business usually has outputs, outputs are not required to be present. In addition, all the inputs and processes that a seller uses in operating a set are not required if market participants can acquire the set and continue to produce outputs. The amendments in this ASU provide a screen to determine when a set is not a business. If the screen is not met, the amendments (1) require that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output, and (2) remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. The ASU provides a framework to assist entities in evaluating whether both an input and a substantive process are present. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods, or January 1, 2018 for the Corporation. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. The Corporation does not anticipate the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU requires businesses and other organizations to measure the current expected credit losses (CECL) on financial assets, such as loans, net investments in leases, certain debt securities, bond insurance and other receivables. The amendments affect entities holding financial assets and net investments in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. Current GAAP requires an incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The amendments in this ASU replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonableness and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. An entity should apply the amendments through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (modified-retrospective approach). Acquired credit impaired loans for which the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 310-30 has been previously applied should prospectively apply the guidance in this ASU. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized before the effective date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those years for public business entities that are SEC filers, or January 1, 2020 for the Corporation. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Corporation's financial statements; however, it is anticipated that the allowance will increase upon adoption of CECL and that the increased allowance level will decrease regulatory capital and ratios.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" to revise the accounting related to lessee accounting. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. Disclosures will be required by lessees and lessors to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply. These practical expedients relate to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. An entity that elects to apply the practical expedients will, in effect, continue to account for leases that commence before the effective date in accordance with previous GAAP unless the lease is modified, except that lessees are required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating leases at each reporting date based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments that were tracked and disclosed under previous GAAP. The ASU is effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, or January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Corporation's financial statements; however, the adoption of this ASU will impact the balance sheet for the recording of assets and liabilities for operating leases; any initial or continued impact of the recording of assets will have an impact on risk-based capital ratios under current regulatory guidance and possibly equity ratios.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." This ASU addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The ASU will require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. When fair value is not readily determinable, an entity may elect to measure the equity investment at cost, minus impairment, plus or minus any change in the investment’s observable price. The ASU will simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment

to identify impairment. When a qualitative assessment indicates that impairment exists, an entity is required to measure the investment at fair value. A valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities will need to be included. For financial liabilities that are measured at fair value, the ASU requires an entity to present separately, in other comprehensive income, any change in fair value resulting from a change in instrument-specific credit risk. An entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The amendments related to equity securities without readily determinable fair values (including disclosure requirements) should be applied prospectively to equity investments that exist as of the date of adoption. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017 or January 1, 2018 for the Corporation. At March 31, 2017, the Corporation's equity portfolio had a carrying value of $941 thousand which included an unrealized net gain of $532 thousand. This unrealized net gain, net of income taxes, amounted to $345 thousand and was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Upon implementation using the prospective approach, the balance in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassed to retained earnings. The carrying value of the equity securities, upon implementation, will not change; however, any future increases or decreases in fair value will be recorded as an increase or decrease to the carrying value and recognized in non-interest income.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." This ASU clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The ASU establishes a core principle that would require an entity to identify the contract(s) with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The ASU provides for improved disclosure requirements that require entities to disclose sufficient information that enables users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net),” which instructs the participants in the sale to determine whether they control the good or service and are entitled to the gross amount of the transaction or are acting as an agent and should collect only a fee or commission for arranging the sale. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing" to provide clarification on these areas. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” providing some limited improvements and practical expedients. The original effective date of the guidance relating to revenue from contracts with customers was deferred by one year as a result of the issuance of ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date,” which was issued by the FASB in August 2015. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017, or January 1, 2018 for the Corporation. The Corporation is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Corporation's financial statements; however, it is anticipated the impact will be only related to timing.

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because debt issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without call or prepayment penalties and mortgage-backed securities typically prepay at a rate faster than contractually due. Unrealized losses in investment securities at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 do not represent other-than-temporary impairments in management's judgment.
Securities with a carrying value of $355.3 million and $356.7 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and other contractual obligations. In addition, securities of $1.4 million were pledged to secure credit derivatives and interest rate swaps at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. See Note 10, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" for additional information.
The following table presents information related to sales of securities available-for-sale during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

Management evaluates debt securities, which are comprised of U.S. government, government sponsored agencies, municipalities, corporate bonds and other issuers, for other-than-temporary impairment by considering the current economic conditions, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, market interest rates and the credit rating of each security. The Corporation does not have the intent to sell the debt securities and believes it is more likely than not, that it will not have to sell the securities before recovery of their cost basis. The Corporation did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment charges on debt securities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.
At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were no investments in any single non-federal issuer representing more than 10% of shareholders’ equity.

The following table shows the fair value of securities that were in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 by the length of time those securities were in a continuous loss position. For the investment securities in an unrealized loss position, the Corporation has concluded, based on its analysis, that the unrealized losses are primarily caused by the movement of interest rates and current market conditions. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the par value of the investment. It is more likely than not that the Corporation will not be required to sell the investment before a recovery of carrying value.

 * Includes nonaccrual troubled debt restructured loans and lease modifications of $1.7 million and $1.8 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The increase in nonaccrual lease financings represents software leases totaling $5.0 million under a vendor referral program. These leases are personally guaranteed by high net worth individuals. During the first quarter of 2017, the lessees stopped making payments due to disputes with the vendor, and Univest Capital, Inc., a subsidiary of the Corporation, filed legal complaints to pursue collection of all amounts owed. A complaint was subsequently filed against Univest Capital Inc. and certain other defendants on March 28, 2017 by one of the lessees in federal court in Texas seeking, among other things, class action certification and a declaration that the contracts and related guarantees are null and void. Univest Capital, Inc. has not been served with the complaint, and the plaintiff has been directed to file an amended complaint on or before May 5, 2017. As of the filing date, the outcome of the matter is neither probable nor estimable.
Credit Quality Indicators
The following tables present by class, the recorded investment in loans and leases held for investment by credit quality indicator at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
The Corporation employs a ten (10) grade risk rating system related to the credit quality of commercial loans and residential real estate loans secured for a business purpose of which the first six categories are pass categories (credits not adversely rated). The following is a description of the internal risk ratings and the likelihood of loss related to each risk rating.

1.
Cash Secured—No credit risk
2.
Fully Secured—Negligible credit risk
3.
Strong—Minimal credit risk
4.
Satisfactory—Nominal credit risk
5.
Acceptable—Moderate credit risk
6.
Pre-Watch—Marginal, but stable credit risk
7.
Special Mention—Potential weakness
8.
Substandard—Well-defined weakness
9.
Doubtful—Collection in-full improbable
10.
Loss—Considered uncollectible

Credit Exposure—Real Estate—Residential Secured for Personal Purpose, Real Estate—Home Equity Secured for Personal Purpose, Loans to individuals, Lease Financing Credit Risk Profile by Payment Activity
The Corporation monitors the credit risk profile by payment activity for the following classifications of loans and leases: residential real estate loans secured for a personal purpose, home equity loans secured for a personal purpose, loans to individuals and lease financings. Nonperforming loans and leases are loans and leases past due 90 days or more, loans and leases on nonaccrual of interest and troubled debt restructured loans and lease modifications. Performing loans and leases are reviewed only if the loan becomes 60 days or more past due. Nonperforming loans and leases are reviewed monthly. Performing loans and leases have a nominal to moderate risk of loss.

N/A – Not applicable
The Corporation records a provision for loan loss for the acquired non-impaired loans only when additional deterioration of the portfolio is identified over the projections utilized in the initial fair value analysis. After the acquisition measurement period, the present value of any decreases in expected cash flows of acquired credit impaired loans will generally result in an impairment charge recorded as a provision for loan loss, resulting in an increase to the allowance.

Impaired loans include nonaccrual loans, accruing troubled debt restructured loans and other accruing impaired loans for which it is probable that not all principal and interest payments due will be collectible in accordance with the contractual terms. These loans are individually measured to determine the amount of potential impairment. The loans are reviewed for impairment based on the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans and for certain loans based on discounted cash flows using the loans’ initial effective interest rates. Impaired loans include other accruing impaired loans of $20.3 million and $23.3 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Specific reserves on other accruing impaired loans were $650 thousand and $84 thousand at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Table of Contents

The following presents by class of loans, the average recorded investment in impaired loans and an analysis of interest on impaired loans. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. Therefore, interest income on accruing impaired loans is recognized using the accrual method.

The Corporation grants concessions primarily related to extensions of interest-only payment periods and an occasional payment modification. These modifications typically are for a short-term basis up to one year. The goal when restructuring a credit is to establish a reasonable period of time to provide cash flow relief to customers experiencing cash flow difficulties. Accruing troubled debt restructured loans are primarily comprised of loans on which interest is being accrued under the restructured terms, and the loans are current or less than ninety days past due.

The Corporation has originated mortgage servicing rights which are included in other intangible assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Mortgage servicing rights are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing income on a basis similar to the interest method and an accelerated amortization method for loan payoffs. Mortgage servicing rights are subject to impairment testing on a quarterly basis. The aggregate fair value of these rights was $9.8 million and $9.5 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was determined using a discount rate of 10.0% at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016. The Corporation also records servicing rights on small business administration (SBA) loans. The value of these servicing rights was $15 thousand at March 31, 2017.

The Corporation, through the Bank, has a credit facility with the FHLB with a maximum borrowing capacity of approximately $1.3 billion. Advances from the FHLB are collateralized by a blanket floating lien on all first mortgage loans of the Bank, FHLB capital stock owned by the Bank and any funds on deposit with the FHLB. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank had outstanding short-term letters of credit with the FHLB totaling $178.8 million and $148.5 million, respectively, which were utilized to collateralize public funds deposits. The maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB changes as a function of the Bank’s qualifying collateral assets as well as the FHLB’s internal credit rating of the Bank.    
The Corporation, through the Bank, maintains uncommitted federal fund credit lines with several correspondent banks totaling $327.0 million and $302.0 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Future availability under these lines is subject to the prerogatives of the granting banks and may be withdrawn at will.
The Corporation, through the Bank, has an available line of credit at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, the amount of which is dependent upon the balance of loans and securities pledged as collateral. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Corporation had no outstanding borrowings from this line.
The Corporation has a $10.0 million line of credit with a correspondent bank. At March 31, 2017, the Corporation had no outstanding borrowings under this line.

FHLB borrowings totaling $50.8 million that mature in 2017 have a "Call Date"; if the borrowing is called, the Corporation has the option to either pay off the borrowing without penalty or the fixed rate borrowing resets to a variable three-month LIBOR based rate. Subsequent to the call date, the borrowings are callable by the FHLB quarterly. Accordingly, the contractual maturities may differ from actual maturities.

Note 6. Retirement Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits
Substantially all employees who were hired before December 8, 2009 are covered by a noncontributory retirement plan. Employees hired on or after December 8, 2009 are not eligible to participate in the noncontributory retirement plan. The Corporation also provides supplemental executive retirement benefits to certain former executives, a portion of which is in excess of limits imposed on qualified plans by federal tax law; these plans are non-qualified benefit plans. These non-qualified benefit plans are not offered to new participants; all current participants are now retired. Information on these plans are aggregated and reported under “Retirement Plans” within this footnote.
The Corporation also provides certain postretirement healthcare and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Information on these benefits is reported under “Other Postretirement Benefits” within this footnote.
The Corporation sponsors a Supplemental Non-Qualified Pension Plan which was established in 1981 prior to the existence of a 401(k) deferred salary savings plan, employee stock purchase plan and long-term incentive plans and therefore is not offered to new participants; all current participants are now retired.

Note 8. Earnings per Share
The Corporation uses the two-class method to calculate earnings per share as the unvested restricted stock issued under the Corporation's equity incentive plans are participating shares with nonforfeitable rights to dividends. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the number of weighted average shares outstanding during the period.

Note 10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Interest Rate Swaps
The Corporation may use interest-rate swap agreements to modify interest rate characteristics from variable to fixed or fixed to variable in order to reduce the impact of interest rate changes on future net interest income. Recorded amounts related to interest-rate swaps are included in other assets or liabilities. The Corporation’s credit exposure on interest rate swaps includes fair value and any collateral that is held by a third party. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated as hedges of future cash flows are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying forecasted transactions occur, at which time the deferred gains and losses are recognized in earnings. For a qualifying fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized in earnings, and the change in fair value of the hedge item, to the extent attributable to the hedged risk, adjusts the carrying amount of the hedge item and is recognized in earnings.
On October 24, 2014, the Corporation entered into an amortizing interest rate swap classified as a cash flow hedge with a notional amount of $20.0 million to hedge a portion of the debt financing of a pool of 10-year maturity fixed rate loans with balances totaling $29.1 million, at time of the hedge, that were originated in 2013. A brokered money market demand account with a balance exceeding the amortizing interest rate swap balance is being used for the cash flow hedge. Under the terms of the swap agreement, the Corporation pays a fixed rate of 2.10% and receives a floating rate based on the one-month LIBOR. The swap matures in November 2022. The Corporation performed an assessment of the hedge for effectiveness at the inception of the hedge and on a recurring basis to determine that the derivative has been and is expected to continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. The Corporation expects that there will be no ineffectiveness over the life of the interest rate swap. At March 31, 2017, approximately $151 thousand in net deferred losses, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss are expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months. This amount could differ

29

Table of Contents

from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations, and the addition of other hedges subsequent to March 31, 2017. At March 31, 2017, the notional amount of the interest rate swap was $18.4 million, with a negative fair value of $138 thousand.
The Corporation has an interest rate swap classified as a fair value hedge with a current notional amount of $1.4 million to hedge a 10-year fixed rate loan that is earning interest at 5.83%. The Corporation pays a fixed rate of 5.83% and receives a floating rate based on the one-month LIBOR plus 350 basis points. The swap matures in October 2021. The difference between changes in the fair values of the interest rate swap agreement and the hedged loan represents hedge ineffectiveness and is recorded in other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Corporation has an interest rate swap with a current notional amount of $598 thousand, for a 15-year fixed rate loan that is earning interest at 7.43%. The Corporation pays a fixed rate of 7.43% and receives a floating rate based on the one-month LIBOR plus 224 basis points. The swap matures in April 2022. The interest rate swap is carried at fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging." The loan is carried at fair value under the fair value option as permitted by FASB ASC 825 "Financial Instruments."
Credit Derivatives
The Corporation has agreements with third-party financial institutions whereby the third-party financial institution enters into interest rate derivative contracts and foreign currency swap contracts with loan customers referred to them by the Corporation. By the terms of the agreements, the third-party financial institution has recourse to the Corporation for any exposure created under each swap contract in the event the customer defaults on the swap agreement and the agreement is in a paying position to the third-party financial institution. These transactions represent credit derivatives and are a customary arrangement that allows the Corporation to provide access to interest rate and foreign currency swap transactions for customers without creating the swap. The Corporation records the fair value of credit derivatives in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation recognizes changes in the fair value of credit derivatives, net of any fees received, in other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.
At March 31, 2017, the Corporation has twelve variable-rate to fixed-rate interest rate swap transactions between the third-party financial institution and customers with a current notional amount of $47.5 million, and remaining maturities ranging from two to 10 years. At March 31, 2017, the fair value of the swaps to the customers was a liability of $57 thousand and all swaps were in paying positions to the third-party financial institution.
At March 31, 2017, there were no material foreign currency swap transactions between the third-party institution and loan customers.
The maximum potential payments by the Corporation to the third-party financial institution under these credit derivatives are not estimable as they are contingent on future interest rates and exchange rates, and the agreement does not provide for a limitation of the maximum potential payment amount.
Mortgage Banking Derivatives
Derivative loan commitments represent agreements for delayed delivery of financial instruments in which the buyer agrees to purchase and the seller agrees to deliver, at a specified future date, a specified instrument at a specified price or yield. The Corporation’s derivative loan commitments are commitments to sell loans secured by 1-to 4-family residential properties whose predominant risk characteristic is interest rate risk. The fair values of these derivative loan commitments are based upon the estimated amount the Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the contracts or agreements, taking into account current interest rates and, when appropriate, the current creditworthiness of the counterparties.

Note 11. Fair Value Disclosures
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Corporation determines the fair value of financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy. The Corporation maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Corporation. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Corporation’s assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances, including assumptions about risk. Three levels of inputs are used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement. Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period.
Level 1: Valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Corporation can access at the measurement date. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
Level 2: Valuations are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include: financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash-flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the fair value calculation requires significant management judgment or estimation.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Investment Securities
Where quoted prices are available in an active market for identical instruments, investment securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 investment securities include U.S. Treasury securities, most equity securities and money market mutual funds. Mutual funds are registered investment companies which are valued at net asset value of shares on a market exchange at the end of each trading day. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Examples of instruments, which would generally be classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, include securities issued by U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, corporate and municipal bonds and certain equity securities. In cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, investment securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Fair values for securities are determined using independent pricing services and market-participating brokers. The Corporation’s independent pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available

Table of Contents

trade, bid and other market information for structured securities, cash flow and, when available, loan performance data. Because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, the pricing service’s evaluated pricing applications apply information as applicable through processes, such as benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing, to prepare evaluations. If at any time, the pricing service determines that it does not have sufficient verifiable information to value a particular security, the Corporation will utilize valuations from another pricing service. Management has a sufficient understanding of the third party service’s valuation models, assumptions and inputs used in determining the fair value of securities to enable management to maintain an appropriate system of internal control.
Certain corporate securities owned by the Corporation are classified as Level 3 as they are not traded in active markets. The fair value of each security is estimated by benchmarking similar transactions of structure, yield and credit which are owned by the Corporation and are actively traded in the market.
On a quarterly basis, the Corporation reviews changes, as submitted by the pricing service, in the market value of its security portfolio. Individual changes in valuations are reviewed for consistency with general interest rate movements and any known credit concerns for specific securities. If, upon the Corporation’s review or in comparing with another service, a material difference between pricing evaluations were to exist, the Corporation may submit an inquiry to the current pricing service regarding the data used to determine the valuation of a particular security. If the Corporation determines there is market information that would support a different valuation than from the current pricing service’s evaluation, the Corporation may utilize and change the security's valuation. There were no material differences in valuations noted at March 31, 2017.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The fair values of derivative financial instruments are based upon the estimated amount the Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the contracts or agreements, taking into account current interest rates and, when appropriate, the current creditworthiness of the counterparties. Interest rate swaps and mortgage banking derivative financial instruments are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Credit derivatives are valued based on credit worthiness of the underlying borrower which is a significant unobservable input and therefore classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Two commercial loans, associated with interest rate swaps are classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy since lending credit risk is not an observable input for these loans. The unrealized gain on the two loans was $85 thousand at March 31, 2017.

Contingent Consideration Liability
The Corporation estimates the fair value of the contingent consideration liability by using a discounted cash flow model of future contingent payments based on projected revenue related to the acquired business. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability is reviewed on a quarterly basis and any valuation adjustments resulting from a change of estimated future contingent payments based on projected revenue of the acquired business affecting the contingent consideration liability will be recorded through noninterest expense. Changes in the original assumptions utilized at the time the acquisition closes and identified during the measurement period are recorded in accordance with ASC Topic 805 as an adjustment to goodwill. Due to the significant unobservable input related to the projected revenue, the contingent consideration liability is classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. An increase in the projected revenue may result in a higher fair value of the contingent consideration liability. Alternatively, a decrease in the projected revenue may result in a lower estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability.
For the Sterner Insurance Associates acquisition, the potential remaining cash payment that could result from the contingent consideration arrangement ranges from $0 to a maximum of $2.6 million based on the results for the twelve-month period ending June 30 2017.

Table of Contents

The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating the fair value for financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis in the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheets but for which the fair value is required to be disclosed:
Cash and short-term interest-earning assets: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and due from banks, interest-earning deposits with other banks, federal funds sold and other short-term investments is their stated value. Cash and short-term interest-earning assets are classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Held-to-maturity securities: Fair values for the held-to-maturity investment securities are estimated by using pricing models or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank and other stock: It is not practical to determine the fair values of Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank and other stock, due to restrictions placed on their transferability.
Loans held for sale: The fair value of the Corporation’s mortgage loans held for sale are generally determined using a pricing model based on current market information obtained from external sources, including interest rates, bids or indications provided by market participants on specific loans that are actively marketed for sale. These loans are primarily residential mortgage loans and are generally classified in Level 2 due to the observable pricing data. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. There were no valuation adjustments for loans held for sale at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
Loans and leases held for investment: The fair values for loans and leases held for investment are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using a discount rate based on current interest rates at which similar loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers and include components for credit risk, operating expense and embedded prepayment options. An overall valuation adjustment is made for specific credit risks in addition to general portfolio risk and is significant to the valuation. As permitted, the fair value of the loans and leases are not based on the exit price concept as discussed in the first paragraph of this note. Loans and leases are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Impaired loans and leases held for investment: For impaired loans and leases, the Corporation uses a variety of techniques to measure fair value, such as using the current appraised value of the collateral, agreements of sale, discounting the contractual cash flows, and analyzing market data that the Corporation may adjust due to specific characteristics of the loan/lease or collateral. At March 31, 2017, impaired loans held for investment had a carrying amount of $37.4 million with a valuation allowance of $399 thousand. At December 31, 2016, impaired loans held for investment had a carrying amount of $43.9 million with a valuation allowance of $235 thousand. The Corporation had impaired leases of $5.0 million with related reserves of $580 thousand at March 31, 2017. The Corporation had no impaired leases at December 31, 2016.
Servicing rights: The Corporation estimates the fair value of mortgage servicing rights using discounted cash flow models that calculate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model uses readily available prepayment speed assumptions for the interest rates of the portfolios serviced. Mortgage servicing rights are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy based upon management's assessment of the inputs. The Corporation reviews the mortgage servicing rights portfolio on a quarterly basis for impairment and the mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. The Corporation also records servicing rights on small business administration (SBA) loans. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, servicing rights had a carrying amount of $6.5 million with no valuation allowance.
Goodwill and other identifiable assets: Certain non-financial assets subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, there were no triggering events that required valuation of goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets.
Other real estate owned: The fair value of other real estate owned (OREO) is originally estimated based upon the appraised value less estimated costs to sell. The fair value less cost to sell becomes the "original cost" of the OREO asset. Subsequently, OREO is reported as the lower of the original cost and the current the fair value less cost to sell. Capital improvement expenses associated with the construction or repair of the property are capitalized as part of the cost of the OREO asset; however, the capitalized expenses may not increase the OREO asset's recorded value to an amount greater than the asset's fair value after improvements and less cost to sell. New appraisals are generally obtained on an annual basis. Other real estate owned is classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy due to the unique characteristics of the collateral for each loan.
Deposit liabilities: The fair values for demand and savings accounts, with no stated maturities, is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (carrying value) and are classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values for time deposits with fixed maturities are estimated by discounting the final maturity using interest rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. Time deposits are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Table of Contents

Short-term borrowings: The fair value of short-term borrowings are estimated using current market rates for similar borrowings and are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Long-term debt: The fair value of long-term debt is estimated by using discounted cash flow analysis, based on current market rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Long-term debt is classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Subordinated notes: The fair value of the subordinated notes are estimated by discounting the principal balance using the treasury yield curve for the term to the call date as the Corporation has the option to call the subordinated notes. The subordinated notes are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Off-balance-sheet instruments: Fair values for the Corporation’s off-balance-sheet instruments are based on the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing and are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Note 12. Segment Reporting
At March 31, 2017, the Corporation has three reportable business segments: Banking, Wealth Management and Insurance. The Corporation determines the segments based primarily upon product and service offerings, through the types of income generated and the regulatory environment. This is strategically how the Corporation operates and has positioned itself in the marketplace. Accordingly, significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of each of these segments. The parent holding company and intercompany eliminations are included in the "Other" segment.
The Corporation's Banking segment consists of commercial and consumer banking. The Wealth Management segment consists of investment advisory services, retirement plan services, trust, municipal pension services and broker/dealer services. The Insurance segment consists of commercial lines, personal lines, benefits and human resources consulting.
Each segment generates revenue from a variety of products and services it provides. Examples of products and services provided for each reportable segment are indicated below.
Ÿ
The Banking segment provides financial services to consumers, businesses and governmental units. These services include a full range of banking services such as deposit taking, loan origination and servicing, mortgage banking, other general banking services and equipment lease financing.
Ÿ
The Wealth Management segment offers trust and investment advisory services, guardian and custodian of employee benefits and other trust and brokerage services, as well as a registered investment advisory managing private investment accounts for both individuals and institutions.
Ÿ
The Insurance segment includes a full-service insurance brokerage agency offering commercial property and casualty insurance, group life and health coverage, employee benefit solutions, personal insurance lines and human resources consulting.
The accounting policies, used in the disclosure of the business segments, are the same as those described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies".
The following table provides total assets by reportable business segment as of the dates indicated.

Note 14. Contingencies
The Corporation is periodically subject to various pending and threatened legal actions, which involve claims for monetary relief. Based upon information presently available to the Corporation, it is the Corporation's opinion that any legal and financial responsibility arising from such claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
As discussed in Note 3, during the first quarter of 2017, certain lessees stopped making payments and Univest Capital, Inc., a subsidiary of the Corporation, filed legal complaints to pursue collection of all amounts owed. A complaint was subsequently filed against Univest Capital, Inc. and certain other defendants on March 28, 2017 by one of the lessees in federal court in Texas seeking, among other things, class action certification and a declaration that the contracts and related guarantees are null and void. Univest Capital, Inc. has not been served with the complaint, and the plaintiff has been directed to file an amended complaint on or before May 5, 2017. As of the filing date, the outcome of the matter is neither probable nor estimable.

Results of Operations
On July 1, 2016, the Corporation acquired Fox Chase. The comparative results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 include the impact of this acquisition.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on loans and leases, investments and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is the principal source of the Corporation’s revenue. Table 1 presents a summary of the Corporation’s average balances, the tax-equivalent yields earned on average assets, and the cost of average liabilities, and shareholders’ equity on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. The tax-equivalent net interest margin is tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The tax-equivalent net interest spread represents the weighted average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets less the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The effect of net interest free funding sources represents the effect on the net interest margin of net funding provided by noninterest-earning assets, noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders’ equity. Table 2 analyzes the changes in the tax-equivalent net interest income for the periods broken down by their rate and volume components.
Table 1, Table 2, and the interest income and net interest income analysis contain tax-equivalent financial information and measures determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The management of the Corporation uses this non-GAAP financial information and measures in its analysis of the Corporation's performance. This financial information and measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis financial information or measures nor should they be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of the non-GAAP financial information and measures provide useful information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of the Corporation.
Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus 2016
Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $35.7 million, an increase of $10.9 million or 43.8% compared to the same period in 2016. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the first quarter of 2017 was 3.80%, compared to 3.91% for the first quarter of 2016.The increase in net interest income and decrease in net interest margin (tax-equivalent) was mainly due to the impact of the Fox Chase acquisition, which occurred on July 1, 2016. The favorable impact of acquisition accounting adjustments was eight basis points ($764 thousand) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to two basis points ($100 thousand) for the same period in the prior year. The incremental subordinated debt issuance in July 2016 increased funding costs by six basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in the prior year.

(1) The interest rate on gross subordinated notes is calculated on a 30/360 day basis with a weighted average note rate of 5.05% and 5.10% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The balance is net of debt issuance costs which are amortized to interest expense.
Notes:     For rate calculation purposes, average loan and lease categories include deferred fees and costs, purchase accounting adjustments,

Interest Income
Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus 2016
Interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $39.8 million, an increase of $12.8 million from the same period in 2016. The increase was mainly due to the impact of the Fox Chase acquisition and organic loan growth in commercial real estate, commercial business and residential real estate loans. The favorable impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments on interest-earnings assets was two basis points ($149 thousand) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to a favorable impact of one basis point ($35 thousand) for the same period in the prior year.
Interest Expense
Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus 2016
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $4.1 million, an increase of $1.9 million from the same period in 2016. The increase was mainly due to the impact of the Fox Chase acquisition and increased borrowings. The favorable impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments on interest-bearing liabilities was nine basis points ($615 thousand) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to a favorable impact of one basis point ($65 thousand) for the same period in the prior year.
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
The provision for loan and lease losses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $2.4 million compared to $326 thousand for the same period in 2016. The increase in the provision for loan losses was primarily due to an increase in loans covered by the allowance for loan and lease losses during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and a $580 thousand reserve for impaired leases.

Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus 2016
Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $15.0 million, an increase of $1.1 million or 8.2% from the same period in the prior year. Service charges on deposits increased $245 thousand or 24.5% for the three months mostly due to fees on deposit accounts acquired from Fox Chase. Investment advisory commission and fee income increased $510 thousand or 19.1% from the three months ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to a combination of both increased new customer relationships and favorable market performance during the second half of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017. Other service fee income increased $156 thousand or 8.5% for the three months primarily due to interchange fee income related to Fox Chase customers. Bank owned life insurance (BOLI) income increased $313 thousand or 66.6% for the three months primarily due to policies acquired from Fox Chase and increased income of $105 thousand on non-qualified annuities. Other income increased $155 thousand for the three months mainly due to net gains on sales of other real estate owned of $114 thousand. These increases were partially offset by modest decreases in insurance and mortgage banking income. Insurance commission and fee income decreased $148 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily due to a decrease in contingent commission income of $340 thousand, which was $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The net gain on mortgage banking decreased $105 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2017 primarily due to a decrease in mortgage volume.

Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus 2016
Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $32.0 million, an increase of $5.1 million or 18.9% from the same period in the prior year. Salaries and benefit expense increased $2.5 million for the three months, primarily attributable to higher staffing levels resulting from the Fox Chase acquisition, additional staff hired to support revenue generation across all business lines and the expansion into Lancaster County. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $782 thousand for the three months, primarily due to higher premises expense related to Fox Chase locations and expansion into Philadelphia, Lancaster County and the Lehigh Valley. Data processing expense increased $777 thousand for the three months due to increased investments in computer software and our outsourced data processing solution as well as the addition of Fox Chase processing expense. Other expense increased $1.1 million for the three months primarily due to inclusion of Fox Chase related expenses and an increase of $416 thousand related to bank shares tax as a result of a statutory rate increase in 2017 and the Corporation's growth primarily due to the Fox Chase acquisition.

Tax Provision
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $3.9 million and $2.8 million, at effective rates of 26.5% and 27.8%, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Corporation recognized a $288 thousand discrete tax benefit related to the vesting of restricted stock and exercise of stock options, which provided a tax deduction greater than previously recorded. This change was in accordance with ASU No. 2016-09, which was implemented by the Corporation in the fourth quarter of 2016 and requires the tax impact of such equity-based compensation activities to be recorded as an adjustment to the income tax provision in the period incurred, rather than an adjustment to equity. Excluding this tax benefit, the effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 28.5% which reflects the Corporation's level of tax-exempt income relative to the overall level of taxable income. The effective tax rates reflect the benefits of tax-exempt income from investments in municipal securities, loans and bank-owned life insurance income.

Investment Securities
Total investments at March 31, 2017 decreased $3.9 million from December 31, 2016. Maturities and pay-downs of $24.7 million, calls of $4.1 million and sales of $1.8 million were partially offset by purchases of $27.2 million and increases in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities of $405 thousand. Long-term interest rates were slightly lower during the first quarter of 2017, resulting in increased fair value of available-for-sale investment securities.
Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank and other stock, at cost
The Bank is a member of the FHLB, and as such, is required to hold FHLB stock as a condition of membership as determined by the FHLB. The Bank is required to hold additional stock in the FHLB in relation to the level of outstanding borrowings. The Bank held FHLB stock of $10.6 million and $10.1 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. FHLB stock increased $454 thousand mainly due to purchase requirements related to the increase in FHLB borrowings. Additionally, the FHLB may require its members to increase their capital stock investments. Changes in the credit ratings of the U.S. government and federal agencies, including the FHLB, could increase the borrowing costs of the FHLB and possibly have a negative impact on the FHLB operations and long-term performance. It is possible this could have an adverse effect on the value of the Corporation’s investment in FHLB stock. The Corporation determined there was no other-than-temporary impairment of the investment in FHLB stock. Therefore, at March 31, 2017, the FHLB stock is recorded at cost.
The Bank held $14.6 million in Federal Reserve Bank stock as required by the Federal Reserve Bank at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Loans and Leases
Gross loans and leases held for investment grew $56.0 million or 1.7% from December 31, 2016. The growth in loans was primarily in commercial real estate, commercial business and residential real estate loans.
Asset Quality
The Bank's strategy for credit risk management focuses on having well-defined credit policies and uniform underwriting criteria and providing prompt attention to potential problem loans and leases. Performance of the loan and lease portfolio is monitored on a regular basis by Bank management and lending officers.
Loans and leases are deemed impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all proceeds due according to the contractual terms of the agreement or when a loan or lease is classified as a troubled debt restructuring. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, borrower cash flows, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due.

When a loan or lease, including a loan or lease that is impaired, is classified as nonaccrual, the accrual of interest on such a loan or lease is discontinued. A loan or lease is typically classified as nonaccrual when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about the further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan or lease is currently performing. A loan or lease may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan or lease is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed and the amortization of net deferred fees is suspended. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans and leases are either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the ultimate collectability of principal.

Loans or leases are usually restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.
At March 31, 2017, the recorded investment in loans and leases held for investment that were considered to be impaired was $42.4 million. The related reserve for loan and lease losses was $979 thousand. At December 31, 2016, the recorded investment in loans and leases that were considered to be impaired was $43.9 million. The related reserve for loan and lease losses was $235 thousand. The impaired loan and lease balances consisted mainly of commercial real estate loans and business loans. Impaired loans and leases include nonaccrual loans and leases, accruing troubled debt restructured loans and lease modifications and other accruing impaired loans for which it is probable that not all principal and interest payments due will be collectible in accordance with the contractual terms. The amount of the specific reserve needed for these credits could change in future periods subject to changes in facts and judgments related to these credits. Specific reserves have been established based on current facts and management’s judgments about the ultimate outcome of these credits. Interest income recognized on impaired loans for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $292 thousand and $402 thousand, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, additional interest income that would have been recognized under the original terms for impaired loans was $215 thousand and $218 thousand, respectively.
Other real estate owned was $3.7 million at March 31, 2017, compared to $5.0 million at December 31, 2016. During the first quarter of 2017, two commercial real estate properties with a total carrying value of $874 thousand were sold for a gain of $14 thousand, three units of a condominium complex with a carrying value of $1.0 million were sold for a gain of $100 thousand and one commercial real estate property with a total fair value of $653 thousand was transferred to other real estate owned.
Reserve for Loan and Lease Losses

The reserve for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level representing management's best estimate of known risks and inherent losses in the portfolio, based upon management's evaluation of the portfolio's collectability. Management evaluates the need to establish reserves against losses on loans and leases on a quarterly basis. When changes in the reserve are necessary, an adjustment is made.

The reserve for loan and lease losses consists of a reserve for impaired loans and leases and a general valuation allowance on the remainder of the portfolio. Although management determines the amount of each element of the reserve separately, the entire reserve for loan and lease losses is available for losses on the portfolio.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets have been recorded on the books of the Corporation in connection with acquisitions. The Corporation has covenants not to compete, core deposit and customer-related intangibles and servicing rights, which are not deemed to have an indefinite life and therefore will continue to be amortized over their useful life using the present value of projected cash flows. The amortization of intangible assets was $1.1 million and $834 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" for a summary of intangible assets at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The Corporation also has goodwill with a net carrying value of $172.6 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, which is deemed to be an indefinite intangible asset and is not amortized.
The Corporation completes a goodwill impairment analysis at least on an annual basis, or more often, if events and circumstances indicate that there may be impairment. The Corporation also completes an impairment test for other identifiable intangible assets on an annual basis or more often if events and circumstances indicate there may be impairment. There was no impairment of goodwill or identifiable intangibles during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Since the last annual impairment analysis during 2016, there have been no circumstances to indicate impairment. There can be no assurance that future impairment assessments or tests will not result in a charge to earnings.

The increase in shareholder's equity at March 31, 2017 of $6.7 million from December 31, 2016 was primarily related to a $5.5 million increase to retained earnings. Retained earnings at March 31, 2017 were impacted by the three months of net income of $10.9 million partially offset by cash dividends declared of $5.3 million. Accumulated other comprehensive loss decreased by $462 thousand mainly attributable to increases in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities. Treasury stock decreased by $778 thousand primarily due to the issuance of restricted stock.

Capital Adequacy
The Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Corporation’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Capital adequacy guidelines, and additionally for the Bank the prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weighting and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined), or leverage ratio.
In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted final rules revising the agencies’ capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action rules, designed to enhance such requirements and implement the revised standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, commonly referred to as Basel III. The new minimum capital requirements were effective on January 1, 2015. Under the new rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions (including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers), a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in an amount greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets. The capital conservation buffer requirements phase in over a four-year period beginning January 1, 2016.
The Corporation adopted the new Basel III regulatory capital rules during the first quarter of 2015 under the transition rules, primarily relating to regulatory deductions and adjustments impacting common equity tier 1 capital and tier 1 capital, to be phased in over a three-year period beginning January 1, 2015. Under Basel III rules, the decision was made to opt-out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. During 2017, the Corporation and the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer greater than 1.250% above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions.

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, management believes that the Corporation and the Bank continued to meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. The Corporation, like other bank holding companies, currently is required to maintain Tier 1 Capital and Total Capital equal to at least 6.0% and 8.0%, respectively, of total risk-weighted assets (including various off-balance-sheet items). The Bank, like other depository institutions, is required to maintain similar capital levels under capital adequacy guidelines. During 2017, the Corporation and the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in an amount greater than 1.250% of total risk-weighted assets in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions. For a depository institution to be considered “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios must be at least 8.0% and 10.0% on a risk-adjusted basis, respectively. At March 31, 2017, the Bank is categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category. The Corporation will continue to analyze the impact of the new rules as it grows and as the capital conservation buffer requirements are phased in.

Asset/Liability Management
The primary functions of Asset/Liability Management are to assure adequate earnings, capital and liquidity while maintaining an appropriate balance between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Liquidity management involves the ability to meet cash flow requirements of customers and corporate needs. Management's objective to address interest-rate risk is to understand the Corporation's susceptibility to changes in interest rates and develop and implement strategies to minimize volatility while maximizing net interest income.
The Corporation uses both interest-sensitivity gap analysis and simulation modeling to quantify exposure to interest rate risk. The Corporation uses the gap analysis to identify and monitor long-term rate exposure and uses a simulation model to measure the short-term rate exposures. The Corporation runs various earnings simulation scenarios to quantify the impact of declining or rising interest rates on net interest income over a one-year and two-year horizon. The simulation uses expected cash flows and repricing characteristics for all financial instruments at a point in time and incorporates company developed, market-based assumptions regarding growth, pricing, and optionality such as prepayment speeds. As interest rates increase, fixed-rate assets that banks hold will tend to decrease in value; conversely, as interest rates decline, fixed-rate assets that banks hold will tend to increase in value.

Liquidity
The Corporation, in its role as a financial intermediary, is exposed to certain liquidity risks. Liquidity refers to the Corporation’s ability to ensure that sufficient cash flow and liquid assets are available to satisfy demand for loans, deposit withdrawals, repayment of borrowings and brokered certificates of deposit at maturity, operating expenditures, and capital expansion. The Corporation manages liquidity risk by measuring and monitoring liquidity sources and estimated funding needs on a weekly basis. The Corporation has a contingency funding plan in place to address liquidity needs in the event of an institution-specific or a systemic financial crisis.
Sources of Funds
Core deposits continue to be the largest significant funding sources for the Corporation. These deposits are primarily generated from a base of consumer, business and public customers located in our primary service areas. The Corporation faces increased competition for these deposits from a large array of financial market participants, including banks, credit unions, savings institutions, mutual funds, security dealers and others.
The Corporation also utilizes a mix of short-term and long-term wholesale funding providers. Wholesale funding includes correspondent bank borrowings, secured borrowing lines from the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and, at times, brokered deposits and other similar sources.
The Corporation, through the Bank, has a credit facility with the FHLB with a maximum borrowing capacity of approximately $1.3 billion. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying amount of overnight borrowings with the FHLB was $9.7 million and $91.3 million, respectively. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying amount of long-term borrowings with the FHLB was $150.9 million and $96.2 million, respectively. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank had outstanding short-term letters of credit with the FHLB totaling $178.8 million and $148.5 million, respectively, which were utilized to collateralize public funds deposits. The maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB changes as a function of qualifying collateral assets as well as the FHLB’s internal credit rating of the Bank.
The Corporation, through the Bank, maintains uncommitted federal fund lines with several correspondent banks totaling $327.0 million and $302.0 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Corporation had $45.0 million and $80.0 million, respectively, outstanding federal funds purchased with these correspondent banks. Future availability under these lines is subject to the prerogatives of the granting banks and may be withdrawn at will.
The Corporation, through the Bank, has an available line of credit at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, the amount of which is dependent upon the balance of loans and securities pledged as collateral. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Corporation had no outstanding borrowings under this line.
The Corporation has a $10.0 million line of credit with a correspondent bank. At March 31, 2017, the Corporation had no outstanding borrowings under this line.

On April 25, 2017, Kroll Bond Rating Agency ("KBRA") reaffirmed its credit rating for the Corporation and the Bank with a stable outlook. Specifically, KBRA reaffirmed the Corporation's senior unsecured debt rating of BBB+, subordinated debt rating of BBB and short-term rating of K2. With regard to the Bank, KBRA reaffirmed the Bank's deposit rating of A-, short-term debt rating of K2 and short-term deposit rating of K2 while also assigning the Bank a senior unsecured debt rating of A-. Additionally, on April 25, 2017, KBRA initiated the Bank's subordinated debt rating of BBB+.
Cash Requirements
The Corporation has cash requirements for various financial obligations, including contractual obligations and commitments that require cash payments. The most significant contractual obligation, in both the under and over one year time period, is for the Bank to repay certificates of deposit and short-term and long-term borrowings. The Bank anticipates meeting these obligations by continuing to provide convenient depository and cash management services through its financial center network, thereby replacing these contractual obligations with similar fund sources at rates that are competitive in our market. The Bank will also use borrowings and brokered deposits to meet its obligations.
Commitments to extend credit are the Bank’s most significant commitment in both the under and over one year time periods. These commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements in that these commitments often expire without being drawn upon.
