__________________________________________________________________________________________________
MARIETTA, Ohio - Peoples Bancorp Inc. ("Peoples") (Nasdaq: PEBO) today announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Peoples reported net income of $23.6 million for the first quarter of 2022, representing earnings per diluted common share of $0.84. In comparison, Peoples recognized earnings per diluted common share of $0.98 for the fourth quarter of 2021, and earnings per diluted common share of $0.79 for the first quarter of 2021.
Non-core items, and the related tax effect of each, in net income primarily included acquisition-related expenses. Non-core items negatively impacted earnings per diluted common share by $0.04 for the first quarter of 2022, $0.02 for the fourth quarter of 2021, and $0.13 for the first quarter of 2021.
"On March 7th, we completed the acquisition of Vantage," said Chuck Sulerzyski, President and Chief Executive Officer. "This addition builds upon the capacity and growth potential we have already seen in our leasing division. We are excited to expand our specialty finance business suite, and we are equally pleased with the talent we are gaining from Vantage."
Completion of Vantage Acquisition:
On March 7, 2022, Peoples Bank acquired Vantage Financial, LLC (“Vantage”), a nationwide provider of equipment financing headquartered in Excelsior, Minnesota. Under the terms of the agreement, Peoples Bank purchased 100% of the equity of Vantage for total cash consideration of $54.0 million. Peoples Bank also repaid $28.9 million in recourse debt on behalf of Vantage, for total consideration of $82.9 million. Vantage offers mid-ticket equipment leases, primarily for business essential information technology equipment across a wide-array of industries. Peoples recognized lease assets of approximately $140.3 million as of the acquisition date.
Premier Financial:
On September 17, 2021, Peoples completed its merger with Premier Financial Bancorp, Inc. ("Premier"), in which Peoples acquired, in an all-stock merger, Premier, a bank holding company headquartered in Huntington, West Virginia, and the parent company of Premier Bank, Inc. ("Premier Bank") and Citizens Deposit Bank and Trust, Inc. ("Citizens"). Under the terms and subject to the conditions of the definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 26, 2021, Premier merged with and into Peoples (the "Premier Merger"), and Premier Bank and Citizens subsequently merged with and into Peoples Bank, in a transaction valued at $261.9 million. At the close of business on September 17, 2021, the financial services offices of Premier Bank and Citizens became branches of Peoples Bank. Peoples acquired $1.1 billion in loans and $1.8 billion in deposits. Peoples preliminarily recorded $67.2 million in goodwill and $4.2 million in other intangible assets in connection with the Premier Merger.
Statement of Operations Highlights:
•Net interest income decreased $0.4 million, or 1%, compared to the linked quarter and increased $18.7 million, or 53%, compared to the first quarter of 2021.
◦Net interest margin increased four basis points to 3.41% for the first quarter of 2022, compared to 3.37% for the linked quarter and increased 15 basis points compared to 3.26% for the first quarter of 2021. The increase in net interest margin compared to the linked quarter was driven by accretion income recognized on the commercial real estate portfolio.
◦The increase in net interest income for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 was driven by an 11 basis point decrease in the average cost of funds.
•Peoples recorded a recovery of credit losses of $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to a recovery of $6.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, and a recovery of $4.7 million for the first quarter of 2021.
◦The recovery of credit losses in the first quarter of 2022 was attributable to an improvement in economic factors and loss drivers within the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model.
◦Net charge-offs were $1.9 million, or 0.17% of average total loans annualized, for the first quarter of 2022, compared to $1.3 million, or 0.11% for the linked quarter.
▪The increase in net charge-offs was driven by higher charge-offs on commercial real estate, and commercial and industrial loans.
•Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, increased $1.0 million, or 5%, compared to the linked quarter, and increased $2.8 million, or 16%, compared to the first quarter of 2021.
◦The increase in non-interest income, excluding gains and losses, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 was largely driven by higher insurance income, which included annual performance-based insurance commissions that are recognized in the first quarter of each year.
◦Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, for the first quarter of 2022 was 27% of total revenue.
•Total non-interest expense increased $3.6 million, or 8%, compared to the linked quarter and $13.6 million, or 36%, compared to the first quarter of 2021.
◦The increase in total non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2022 was attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefit costs, professional fees and FDIC insurance premiums.
◦For the first quarter of 2022, the efficiency ratio was 66.8%. When adjusted for non-core items, the efficiency ratio was 64.8% for the first quarter of 2022.
Balance Sheet Highlights:
•Period-end total loan balances were up $65.6 million compared to December 31, 2021.
◦The increase in period-end loan balances was primarily the result of leases acquired from Vantage during the first quarter totaling $140.2 million, partially offset by a reduction in commercial real estate loans.
◦Construction loans grew to $238.3 million during the quarter, or 53% annualized.
◦Excluding Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans and leases acquired from Vantage, loan balances declined for the quarter by $34.7 million.
•Asset quality metrics improved slightly during the quarter.
◦Annualized net charge-offs for the quarter remained low at 0.17% of average total loans, with an increase of six basis points compared to the linked quarter driven by charge-offs on commercial and industrial loans.
◦The recovery of credit losses recorded during the quarter was driven by continued improvement in economic factors and changes in loss drivers used in the CECL model.
◦Delinquency trends improved slightly as loans considered current comprised 99.0% of the loan portfolio at March 31, 2022, compared to 98.8% at December 31, 2021.
◦Nonperforming assets decreased $1.1 million compared to December 31, 2021. The decrease was related to a payoff of a large commercial loan, combined with pay downs and charge-offs on smaller commercial loans acquired from Premier.
◦Criticized loans decreased $3.7 million during the first quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily related to the upgrade of two commercial relationships acquired from Premier, offset partially by leases acquired from Vantage.
◦Classified loans increased $3.0 million during the first quarter of 2022. The increase was driven by leases acquired from Vantage.
•Period-end total deposit balances at March 31, 2022 increased $140.4 million, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2021.
◦The increase in total deposits compared to December 31, 2021 was driven primarily by seasonal growth in governmental deposits of $117.5 million.
◦Total demand deposit balances were 47% of total deposit balances at March 31, 2022 and 48% at December 31, 2021.
Net Interest Income:
Net interest income was $54.3 million for the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 1%, compared to the linked quarter. Net interest margin was 3.41% for the first quarter of 2022, compared to 3.37% for the linked quarter. The decrease in net interest income was driven primarily by higher funding costs, partially offset by accretion income
recognized on the commercial real estate portfolio. Net interest income and net interest margin both continue to be impacted by the
excess liquidity environment present in the financial services sector since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic by
way of increased low yielding cash reserves. The impact of the recent increase in the Federal Reserve benchmark interest rate was not meaningful for the current quarter given the proximity of its timing to quarter-end.
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2022 increased $18.7 million, or 53%, compared to the first quarter of 2021. Net interest margin increased 15 basis points compared to 3.26% for the first quarter of 2021. The increase in net interest income compared to the first quarter of 2021 was driven by lower funding costs, which were primarily attributable to deposits acquired from Premier.
Accretion income, net of amortization expense, from acquisitions was $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, $1.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 and $0.4 million for the first quarter of 2021, which added 17 basis points, 12 basis points and 4 basis points, respectively, to net interest margin. Accretion income for the current quarter was driven by payoffs on several large commercial loans.
Recovery of Credit Losses:
The recovery of credit losses was $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to $6.6 million for the linked quarter and $4.7 million for the first quarter of 2021. The changes in the recovery of credit losses compared to the linked quarter and prior year quarter were primarily due to continued improvement in economic factors and changes in loss drivers used in the CECL model.
Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2022 were $1.9 million, or 0.17% of average total loans annualized, compared to net charge-offs of $1.3 million, or 0.11% of average total loans annualized, for the linked quarter and net charge-offs of $1.1 million, or 0.13% of average total loans annualized, for the first quarter of 2021. Net charge-offs for the first quarter included two commercial and industrial loans aggregating $0.7 million. For additional information on credit trends and the allowance for credit losses, see the "Asset Quality" section below.
Net Gains and Losses:
Net gains and losses include gains and losses on investment securities, asset disposals and other transactions, which are included in total non-interest income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The net gain realized during the first quarter of 2022 was $3,000, compared to a net gain of $0.8 million for the linked quarter, and a net loss of $0.4 million for the first quarter of 2021. The net gain for the fourth quarter of 2021 was attributable to a gain of $0.9 million on the sale of $59.8 million in loans acquired from Premier. During the first quarter of 2021, Peoples sold $25.3 million of available-for-sale investment securities at a net loss.
Total Non-interest Income, Excluding Net Gains and Losses:
Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, for the first quarter of 2022 was up $1.0 million compared to the linked quarter. The increase in non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, was the result of higher insurance income, which included annual performance-based insurance commissions of $1.3 million that are recognized in the first quarter of each year, offset partially by a decline in mortgage banking income.
Compared to the first quarter of 2021, non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, increased $2.8 million. Deposit account service charges increased $1.4 million and electronic banking income increased $1.3 million. The increase in deposit account service charges was primarily attributable to overdraft and NSF fees driven by a larger customer base following the acquisition of Premier. Electronic banking income increased in the first quarter of 2022 due to an increase in the interchange income earned from customers' debit card usage, driven partially by customers added in the Premier acquisition.
Total Non-interest Expense:
Total non-interest expense was up $3.6 million, or 8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the linked quarter. The increase in total non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2022 was attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefit costs, professional fees and FDIC insurance premiums. The increase in salaries and employee benefit costs was driven by merit increases, employer contributions to health savings accounts, stock-based compensation expense and higher payroll taxes, which are generally higher in the first quarter. Total non-interest expense in the first quarter of 2022 also contained other non-core expenses, including acquisition-related expenses of $1.4 million. During the fourth quarter of 2021, non-core expenses included acquisition-related expenses of $0.9 million
Compared to the first quarter of 2021, total non-interest expense increased $13.6 million, or 36%, primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefit costs of $7.0 million, an increase in net occupancy and equipment costs of $1.8 million, an increase in amortization of intangible assets of $1.1 million, and an increase in FDIC insurance premiums of
$0.7 million. Those increases were primarily the result of the Premier Merger and the acquisition of the equipment leasing business from NS Leasing, LLC ("NSL"). During the first quarter of 2021, non-core expenses included acquisition-related expenses of $1.9 million and a contribution to the Peoples Bank Foundation, Inc. of $0.5 million.
The efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 2022 was 66.8%, compared to 62.7% for the linked quarter, and 70.4% for the first quarter of 2021. The change in the efficiency ratio compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to the increases in salaries and employee benefit costs, professional fees and FDIC insurance premiums mentioned above. The efficiency ratio, adjusted for non-core items, was 64.8% for the first quarter of 2022, compared to 61.5% for the linked quarter and 65.2% for the first quarter of 2021. The efficiency ratio is typically higher in the first quarter of the year driven by the aforementioned salaries and employee benefit costs, and specifically by higher payroll taxes, employer contributions to health savings accounts and stock-based compensation expenses for certain employees. Peoples continues to focus on controlling expenses, while recognizing some necessary costs in order to continue growing the business.
Income Tax Expense:
Peoples recorded income tax expense of $6.0 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to income tax expense of $5.4 million for the linked quarter and income tax expense of $3.8 million for the first quarter of 2021. The increase in income tax expense for the first quarter of 2022, compared to income tax expense for the linked quarter, was due to an increase in Peoples' effective tax rate. The increase in income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was largely driven by higher pre-tax income.
Loans:
The period-end total loan balances at March 31, 2022, increased $65.6 million compared to December 31, 2021. The increase in the period-end loan balances was driven by $140.2 million of leases acquired from Vantage and an increase in construction loans of $28.1 million, partially offset by a reduction in commercial real estate loans of $93.0 million. Excluding PPP loans and leases acquired from Vantage, loan balances declined for the quarter by $30.5 million. This was driven primarily by a reduction in loans acquired.
The period-end total loan balances increased $1.1 billion compared to March 31, 2021. The increase in the period-end loan balances was driven by $1.1 billion in loans acquired from Premier as of the acquisition date, along with leases acquired from NSL and Vantage totaling $223.0 million as of the acquisition date.
Quarterly average loan balances decreased $21.1 million, or less than 1%, in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the linked quarter. The decrease was driven by the sale of loans acquired from Premier, offset by leases acquired from Vantage. Compared to the first quarter of 2021, quarterly average loan balances increased $1.1 billion, or 33%, driven by loans acquired from Premier, and leases acquired and originated.
Asset Quality:
Asset quality metrics improved slightly during the quarter. Total nonperforming assets decreased $1.1 million, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2021, and were up $21.0 million compared to March 31, 2021. The decrease in nonperforming assets compared to the prior quarter was primarily attributable to a reduction in nonaccrual commercial real estate loans. The increase from the prior year quarter was driven by nonperforming loans acquired from Premier. Nonperforming assets as a percent of total loans and OREO were 1.03% at March 31, 2022, down from 1.07% at December 31, 2021 and up compared to 0.76% at March 31, 2021.
Criticized loans, which are those categorized as special mention, substandard or doubtful, decreased $3.7 million compared to December 31, 2021 and were up $73.9 million compared to March 31, 2021. As a percent of total loans, criticized loans were 4.19% at March 31, 2022, compared to 4.33% at December 31, 2021 and 3.41% at March 31, 2021. The decrease in the amount of criticized loans compared to December 31, 2021, was primarily related to the upgrade of two commercial relationships, offset partially by criticized leases acquired from Vantage. Compared to March 31, 2021, the increase in the amount of criticized loans was largely due to criticized loans acquired from Premier. Classified loans, which are those categorized as substandard or doubtful, increased $3.0 million compared to December 31, 2021, and were up $33.4 million compared to March 31, 2021. As a percent of total loans, classified loans were 2.41% at March 31, 2022, compared to 2.38% at December 31, 2021, and 2.23% at March 31, 2021. The increase in classified loans compared to the prior quarter was driven by the classified leases acquired from Vantage.
Annualized net charge-offs were 0.17% of average total loans for the first quarter of 2022, compared to 0.11% for the linked quarter and 0.13% for the prior year quarter, with the increase relative to both prior periods driven by charge-offs on commercial and industrial loans.
At March 31, 2022, the allowance for credit losses was $54.8 million, compared to $64.0 million at December 31, 2021, and $44.9 million at March 31, 2021. The change in the allowance for credit losses compared to December 31, 2021 was primarily due to continued improvement in economic factors and changes in loss drivers used in the CECL model. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses as a percent of total loans was 1.20% at March 31, 2022, compared to 1.43% at
December 31, 2021 and 1.32% at March 31, 2021. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses as a percent of total loans includes PPP loans that do not have an allowance because of the guarantee by the Small Business Administration. Excluding PPP loans, the ratio of the allowance for credit losses as a percent of total loans would increase to 1.22% at March 30, 2022, compared to 1.51% at December 31, 2021, and 1.66% at March 31, 2021.
Deposits:
As of March 31, 2022, period-end deposit balances were up $140.4 million, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2021. The increase was driven by seasonal growth in governmental deposits of $117.5 million, an increase in non-interest bearing checking deposits of $30.8 million, and an increase in savings deposits of $28.9 million, offset partially by decreases in retail and brokered certificates of deposits.
Period-end deposit balances grew $1.7 billion, or 39%, compared to March 31, 2021. The increase was driven by deposits acquired from Premier. Excluding the deposits acquired from Premier, deposits increased $23.5 million primarily as a result of an increase in the aforementioned governmental deposits. Customers continued to maintain higher balances due primarily to economic stimulus payments provided by the government, as well as changes in customer buying habits.
Average deposit balances during the first quarter of 2022 decreased $13.0 million, or less than 1%, compared to the linked quarter. This decrease was driven by lower non-interest bearing deposits, partially offset by an increase in governmental deposits. Compared to the first quarter of 2021, quarterly average deposits increased $1.8 billion, or 44%, driven by deposits acquired from Premier. Total demand deposit accounts comprised 47% of total deposits at March 31, 2022, 48% at December 31, 2021, and 45% at March 31, 2021.
Stockholders' Equity:
Total stockholders' equity at March 31, 2022 decreased by $36.7 million compared to December 31, 2021, which reflected an other comprehensive loss of $51.0 million and dividends paid of $10.2 million, partially offset by net income for the quarter of $23.6 million. The other comprehensive loss was the result of the changes in the market value of available-for-sale investment securities.
Total stockholders' equity at March 31, 2022 increased $229.2 million, or 40%, compared to March 31, 2021, which was mainly due to common shares issued for the acquisition of Premier and $55.7 million in net income during the prior twelve-month period, offset by an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $57.7 million and dividends paid of $34.5 million. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss was the result of a lower market value related to the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio, which was driven by changes in interest rates from March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022.
At March 31, 2022, the tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 11.80%, compared to 12.81% at December 31, 2021, and 12.65% at March 31, 2021. The common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 11.51% at March 31, 2022, compared to 12.52% at December 31, 2021, and 12.42% at March 31, 2021. The total risk-based capital ratio was 12.78% at March 31, 2022, compared to 14.06% at December 31, 2021, and 13.78% at March 31, 2021. Peoples adopted the five-year transition to phase in the impact of the adoption of CECL, effective January 1, 2020, on regulatory capital ratios. Compared to each of December 31, 2021, and March 31, 2021, the capital ratios were impacted by the cash acquisition of Vantage.
Book value per common share and tangible book value per common share, which excludes goodwill and other intangible assets, were $28.41 and $16.39, respectively, at March 31, 2022, compared to $29.86 and $19.58, respectively, at December 31, 2021, and $29.49 and $20.12, respectively, at March 31, 2021. Both ratios decreased compared to December 31, 2021 due to other comprehensive losses recognized in the first quarter of 2022, while tangible book value per share was also impacted by the intangible assets recognized in the acquisition of Vantage. Both ratios decreased compared to March 31, 2021, due to the common shares issued in the acquisition of Premier, with tangible book value also impacted by the intangible assets recognized in the NSL acquisition, Premier Merger and Vantage acquisition.
The ratio of total stockholders’ equity to total assets decreased to 11.17% at March 31, 2022, from 11.96% at December 31, 2021, and 11.26% at March 31, 2021, because assets grew faster than stockholders' equity due to the acquisitions of NSL acquisition, Premier Merger and Vantage acquisition. The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, which excludes goodwill and other intangible assets, decreased 142 basis points and 120 basis points compared to December 31, 2021, and March 31, 2021, respectively, due primarily to increases in accumulated other comprehensive losses and goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in the acquisition of Vantage.

Use of Non-US GAAP Financial Measures:
This news release contains financial information and performance measures determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). Management uses these "non-US GAAP" financial measures in its analysis of Peoples' performance and the efficiency of its operations. Management believes that these non-US GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods and peers. These disclosures should not be viewed as substitutes for financial measures determined in accordance with US GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-US GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Below is a listing of the non-US GAAP financial measures used in this news release:
◦Core non-interest expense is a non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the impact of acquisition-related expenses, pension settlement charges, severance expenses, COVID-19-related expenses, the contribution to Peoples Bank Foundation, Inc. and contract negotiation benefits.
◦The efficiency ratio is calculated as total non-interest expense (less amortization of other intangible assets) as a percentage of fully tax-equivalent net interest income plus total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses. This ratio is a non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes amortization of other intangible assets and all gains and losses included in earnings, and uses fully tax-equivalent net interest income.
◦The efficiency ratio adjusted for non-core items is calculated as core non-interest expense (less amortization of other intangible assets) as a percentage of fully tax-equivalent net interest income plus total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses. This ratio is a non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the impact of acquisition-related expenses, pension settlement charges, severance expenses, COVID-19-related expenses, the contribution to Peoples Bank Foundation, Inc., contract negotiation benefits, the amortization of other intangible assets and all gains and losses included in earnings, and uses fully tax-equivalent net interest income.
◦Tangible assets, tangible equity, the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio and tangible book value per common share are non-US GAAP financial measures since they exclude the impact of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on both total stockholders' equity and total assets.
◦Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, is a non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes all gains and losses included in earnings.
◦Pre-provision net revenue is defined as net interest income plus total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, minus total non-interest expense. This measure is a non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the recovery of credit losses and all gains and losses included in net income.
◦Return on average assets adjusted for non-core items is calculated as annualized net income (less the after-tax impact of all gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, pension settlement charges, severance expenses, COVID-19-related expenses, the contribution to Peoples Bank Foundation Inc. and contract negotiation benefits) divided by average assets. This measure is a non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the after-tax impact of all gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, pension settlement charges, severance expenses, COVID-19-related expenses, the contribution to Peoples Bank Foundation, Inc. and contract negotiation benefits.
◦Return on average tangible equity is calculated as annualized net income (less the after-tax impact of amortization of other intangible assets) divided by average tangible equity. This measure is a non-US GAAP
financial measure since it excludes the after-tax impact of amortization of other intangible assets from net income and the impact of average goodwill and other average intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on average stockholders' equity.
A reconciliation of these non-US GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable US GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this news release under the caption of "Non-US GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)."

(1)the ever-changing effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic - the duration, extent and severity of which are impossible to predict, including the possibility of further resurgence in the spread of COVID-19 or variants thereof - on economies (local, national and international), supply chains and markets, on the labor market, including the potential for a sustained reduction in labor force participation, and on Peoples' customers, counterparties, employees and third-party service providers, as well as the effects of various responses of governmental and nongovernmental authorities to the COVID-19 pandemic, including public health actions directed toward the containment of the COVID-19 pandemic (such as quarantines, shut downs and other restrictions on travel and commercial, social and other activities), the availability, effectiveness and acceptance of vaccines, and the implementation of fiscal stimulus packages, which could adversely impact sales volumes, add volatility to the global stock markets, and increase loan delinquencies and defaults;
(2)changes in the interest rate environment due to economic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors and/or the fiscal and monetary policy measures undertaken by the U.S. government and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board") in response to such economic conditions, which may adversely impact interest rates, the interest rate yield curve, interest margins, loan demand and interest rate sensitivity;
(3)the success, impact, and timing of the implementation of Peoples' business strategies and Peoples' ability to manage strategic initiatives, including the completion and successful integration of planned acquisitions, including the recently-completed merger with Premier and the recently-completed acquisitions of NSL and Vantage, and the expansion of commercial and consumer lending activities, in light of the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on customers' operations and financial condition;
(4)competitive pressures among financial institutions, or from non-financial institutions, which may increase significantly, including product and pricing pressures, which can in turn impact Peoples' credit spreads, changes to third-party relationships and revenues, changes in the manner of providing services, customer acquisition and retention pressures, and Peoples' ability to attract, develop and retain qualified professionals;
(5)uncertainty regarding the nature, timing, cost, and effect of legislative or regulatory changes or actions, or deposit insurance premium levels, promulgated and to be promulgated by governmental and regulatory agencies in the State of Ohio, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which may subject Peoples, its subsidiaries, or one or more acquired companies to a variety of new and more stringent legal and regulatory requirements which adversely affect their respective businesses, including in particular the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated under the CARES Act, and the follow-up legislation enacted as the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, and the Basel III regulatory capital reform;
(6)the effects of easing restrictions on participants in the financial services industry;
(7)local, regional, national and international economic conditions (including the impact of potential or imposed tariffs, a U.S. withdrawal from or significant renegotiation of trade agreements, trade wars and other changes in trade regulations, and changes in the relationship of the U.S. and its global trading partners) and the impact these
conditions may have on Peoples, its customers and its counterparties, and Peoples' assessment of the impact, which may be different than anticipated;
(8)Peoples may issue equity securities in connection with future acquisitions, which could cause ownership and economic dilution to Peoples' current shareholders;
(9)changes in prepayment speeds, loan originations, levels of nonperforming assets, delinquent loans, charge-offs, and customer and other counterparties' performance and creditworthiness generally, which may be less favorable than expected in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and adversely impact the amount of interest income generated;
(10)Peoples may have more credit risk and higher credit losses to the extent there are loan concentrations by location or industry of borrowers or collateral;
(11)future credit quality and performance, including expectations regarding future credit losses and the allowance for credit losses;
(12)changes in accounting standards, policies, estimates or procedures may adversely affect Peoples' reported financial condition or results of operations;
(13)the impact of assumptions, estimates and inputs used within models, which may vary materially from actual outcomes, including under the CECL model;
(14)the replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") with other reference rates which may result in increased expenses and litigation, and adversely impact the effectiveness of hedging strategies;
(15)adverse changes in the conditions and trends in the financial markets, including the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related responses by governmental and nongovernmental authorities to the pandemic, which may adversely affect the fair value of securities within Peoples' investment portfolio, the interest rate sensitivity of Peoples' consolidated balance sheet, and the income generated by Peoples' trust and investment activities;
(16)the volatility from quarter to quarter of mortgage banking income, whether due to interest rates, demand, the fair value of mortgage loans, or other factors;
(17)Peoples' ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries;
(18)Peoples' ability to maintain required capital levels and adequate sources of funding and liquidity;
(19)the impact of larger or similar-sized financial institutions encountering problems, which may adversely affect the banking industry and/or Peoples' business generation and retention, funding and liquidity;
(20)Peoples' ability to secure confidential information and deliver products and services through the use of computer systems and telecommunications networks, including those of Peoples' third-party vendors and other service providers, which may prove inadequate, and could adversely affect customer confidence in Peoples and/or result in Peoples incurring a financial loss;
(21)Peoples' ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes, and Peoples' reliance on, and the potential failure of, a number of third-party vendors to perform as expected, including Peoples' primary core banking system provider, which can impact Peoples' ability to respond to customer needs and meet competitive demands;
(22)operational issues stemming from and/or capital spending necessitated by the potential need to adapt to industry changes in information technology systems on which Peoples and its subsidiaries are highly dependent;
(23)changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits, whether due to changes in retail distribution strategies, consumer preferences and behavior, changes in business and economic conditions (including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic), legislative or regulatory initiatives (including those in response to the COVID-19 pandemic), or other factors, which may be different than anticipated;
(24)the adequacy of Peoples' internal controls and risk management program in the event of changes in strategic, reputational, market, economic, operational, cybersecurity, compliance, legal, asset/liability repricing, liquidity, credit and interest rate risks associated with Peoples' business;
(25)the impact on Peoples' businesses, personnel, facilities, or systems, of losses related to acts of fraud, theft, misappropriation or violence;
(26)the impact on Peoples' businesses, as well as on the risks described above, of various domestic or international widespread natural or other disasters, pandemics (including COVID-19), cybersecurity attacks, system failures, civil unrest, military or terrorist activities or international conflicts;
(27)the impact on Peoples' businesses and operating results of any costs associated with obtaining rights in intellectual property claimed by others and adequately protecting Peoples' intellectual property;
(28)risks and uncertainties associated with Peoples' entry into new geographic markets and risks resulting from Peoples' inexperience in these new geographic markets;
(29)Peoples' ability to integrate the NSL and Vantage acquisitions, and the merger of Premier into Peoples, which may be unsuccessful, or may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected;
(30)the risk that expected revenue synergies and cost savings from the merger of Peoples and Premier may not be fully realized or realized within the expected time frame;
(31)changes in laws or regulations imposed by Peoples' regulators impacting Peoples' capital actions, including dividend payments and share repurchases;
(32)the effect of a fall in stock market prices on the asset and wealth management business;
(33)Peoples' continued ability to grow deposits;
(34)the impact of future governmental and regulatory actions upon Peoples' participation in and execution of government programs related to the COVID-19 pandemic;
(35)uncertainty regarding the impact of the current U.S. presidential administration and Congress on the regulatory landscape, capital markets, elevated government debt, potential changes in tax legislation that may increase tax rates and the response to and management of the COVID-19 pandemic, infrastructure spending and social programs; and,
(36)other risk factors relating to the banking industry or Peoples as detailed from time to time in Peoples' reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including those risk factors included in the disclosures under the heading "ITEM 1A.
