(1)    Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of First Interstate BancSystem, Inc., First Interstate Bank (“FIB”), and its other subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) contain all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three month period ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The balance sheet information at December 31, 2020 is derived from audited consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications, none of which were material, have been made to conform prior year financial statements to the March 31, 2021 presentation. These reclassifications did not change previously reported net income or stockholders’ equity.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which includes a description of significant accounting policies. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

The available-for-sale securities portfolio contains securities that are guaranteed by a sovereign entity or are generally considered to have non-credit related risks, such as interest rate risk or prepayment and liquidity factors. The Company considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies and whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred. The unrealized losses are due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions.
The Company had 292 and 181 individual available-for-sale investment securities that were in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, related primarily to fluctuations in current interest rates. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had the intent and ability to hold these investment securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery. Furthermore, the Company does not have the intent to sell any of the available-for-sale securities in the above table and it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any securities before a recovery in cost. There were no material allowances for credit loss as of March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020 for available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities.
Maturities of securities do not reflect rate repricing opportunities present in adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had variable rate mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost of $235.8 million classified as available-for-sale in the table below. Maturities of mortgage-backed securities have been adjusted to reflect shorter maturities based upon estimated prepayments of principal. All other investment securities maturities are shown at contractual maturity dates.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company held investment securities callable within one year with amortized costs and estimated fair values of $265.1 million and $258.6 million, respectively. These investment securities are primarily included in the “after five years but within ten years” category in the table above. As of March 31, 2021, the Company held no callable structured notes.
As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company recorded amortized costs of $2,257.0 million and $2,323.0 million, respectively, for investment securities pledged to secure public deposits and securities sold under repurchase agreements and had approximate fair values as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 of $2,290.8 million and $2,383.6 million, respectively. All securities sold under repurchase agreements are with clients and mature on the next banking day. The Company retains possession of the underlying securities sold under repurchase agreements.

Collateral-Dependent Financial Loans
A collateral-dependent financial loan relies solely on the operation or sale of the collateral for repayment. In evaluating the overall risk associated with a loan, the Company considers character, overall financial condition and resources, and payment record of the borrower; the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors; and the nature and degree of protection provided by the cash flow and value of any underlying collateral. The loan may become collateral-dependent where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and as sources of repayment become inadequate over time and that repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral.

(1) As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, none of our non-accrual loans were earning interest income. Additionally, no material interest income was recognized on non-accrual loans during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Additionally, no material accrued interest was reversed at March 31, 2021 and 2020.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
Modifications of performing loans are made in the ordinary course of business and are completed on a case-by-case basis as negotiated with the borrower in connection with the ongoing loan collection processes. Loan modifications typically include interest rate changes, interest only periods of less than twelve months, short-term payment deferrals and extension of amortization periods to provide payment relief. A loan modification is considered a troubled debt restructuring if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company, for economic or legal reasons, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Certain troubled debt restructurings are on non-accrual status at the time of restructuring and may be returned to accrual status if the borrower has sustained repayment performance in accordance with the restructuring agreement for a period of at least six months and management is reasonably assured of the borrower’s future performance. If the troubled debt restructuring meets these performance criteria, and the interest rate granted at the modification is equal to or greater than the rate that the Company was willing to accept at the time of the restructuring for a new loan with comparable risk, then the loan will return to performing status and the accrual of interest will resume. Loans that return to performing status will continue to be individually evaluated for credit deterioration.
The 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) provided financial institutions with options on the treatment of troubled debt restructurings, and the Company elected to apply these options at the individual loan level. Under the CARES Act, the Company can elect: (1) to suspend the requirements under GAAP for loan modifications related to the COVID–19 pandemic that would otherwise be categorized as a troubled debt restructuring; and/or (2) to suspend any determination of a loan modified as being a troubled debt restructuring as a result of the effects of the COVID–19 pandemic, including impairment for accounting purposes. If the Company elects a suspension noted above, the suspension (a) will be effective for the term of the loan modification, but solely with respect to any modification, including a forbearance arrangement, an interest rate modification, a repayment plan, and any other similar arrangement that defers or delays the payment of principal or interest, occurring for a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (b) will not apply to any adverse impact on the credit of a borrower that is not related to the COVID–19 pandemic. These suspensions end the earlier of January 1, 2022 or the date that is 60 days after the termination of the national emergency.

The Company renegotiated loans in troubled debt restructurings in the amount of $12.2 million as of March 31, 2021, of which $9.1 million were included in non-accrual loans and $3.1 million were on accrual status. As of March 31, 2021, the Company allocated $1.5 million of allowance for credit losses to those loans and the Company had no material commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose existing loans have been renegotiated or are classified as non-accrual.
The Company renegotiated loans in troubled debt restructurings in the amount of $14.5 million as of December 31, 2020, of which $11.3 million were included in non-accrual loans and $3.2 million were on accrual status. As of December 31, 2020, the Company allocated $2.9 million of allowance for credit losses to those loans and the Company had no material commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose existing loans have been renegotiated or are classified as non-accrual.
The Company had no material new troubled debt restructurings during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
For troubled debt restructurings that were on non-accrual status or otherwise deemed collateral-dependent before the modification, a specific reserve may already be recorded. In periods subsequent to modification, the Company continues to evaluate all troubled debt restructurings for possible credit deterioration and recognizes credit loss through the allowance. Additionally, these loans continue to work through the credit cycle through charge-off, pay-off, or foreclosure. Financial effects of modifications of troubled debt restructurings may include principal loan forgiveness or other charge-offs directly related to the restructuring. The Company had no charge-offs directly related to modifying troubled debt restructurings during the three months ended March 31, 2021 or 2020.
The Company had no material troubled debt restructurings during the previous 12 months for which there was a payment default during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company considers a payment default to occur on troubled debt restructurings when the loan is 90 days or more past due or is placed on non-accrual status after the modification.
The terms of certain other loans were modified during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that did not meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring. These loans have a total recorded investment of $94.4 million as of March 31, 2021. The modification of these loans involved either a modification of the terms of a loan to borrowers who were not experiencing financial difficulties or a delay in a payment that was considered to be insignificant.
In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, the Company evaluates the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy.
Credit Quality Indicators
As part of the on-going and continuous monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks internally assigned risk classifications of loans based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt including, among other factors, current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends. The Company analyzes loans individually to classify the credit risk of the loans. This analysis generally includes loans with an outstanding balance greater than $1.0 million, which are generally considered non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed no less than on an annual basis, dependent upon the size of exposure and the financial reporting frequency to which the borrower is contractually obligated. Homogeneous loans, including small business loans, are typically managed by payment performance. The Company risk rates its loans internally in accordance with a Uniform Classification System developed jointly by the various bank regulatory agencies to internally risk rate loans. The Uniform Classification System defines three broad categories of criticized assets, which the Company uses as credit quality indicators in addition to the 6 Pass ratings in its 10-point rating scale:
Special Mention — includes loans that exhibit a potential weakness in financial condition, loan structure, or documentation that warrants management’s close attention. If not promptly corrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

(Dollars in millions, except share and per share data)
Substandard — includes loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower which have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Although the primary source of repayment for a substandard loan may not currently be sufficient, collateral or other sources of repayment are sufficient to satisfy the debt. Continuance of a substandard loan is not warranted unless positive steps are taken to improve the worthiness of the credit.
Doubtful — includes loans that exhibit pronounced weaknesses on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values to a point where collection or liquidation for full repayment is highly questionable and improbable. Doubtful loans are required to be placed on non-accrual status and are assigned specific loss exposure.
Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass-rated loans.
The Company evaluates the credit quality and loan performance for the allowance for credit loan losses of the following segments based on the aforementioned risk scale:

The Company evaluates the credit quality, loan performance, and the allowance for credit loan losses of its residential and consumer loan portfolios, based primarily on the aging status of the loan and payment activity. Accordingly, loans on nonaccrual status, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, and loans modified under troubled debt restructurings are considered to be nonperforming for purposes of credit quality evaluation. The following tables present the recorded investment of our other loan portfolios based on the credit risk profile of loans that are performing and loans that are nonperforming as of the periods indicated:

There were no foreclosed residential real estate properties included in other real estate owned as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company had recorded investments in consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process of foreclosure of zero and $0.2 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(5)    Derivatives and Hedging Activities
For asset and liability management purposes, the Company enters into interest rate swap contracts to hedge against changes in forecasted cash flows due to interest rate exposures. Interest rate swaps are contracts in which a series of interest payments are exchanged over a prescribed period. The notional amount upon which the interest payments are based is not exchanged. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual agreements. The swap agreements are derivative instruments and convert a portion of the Company’s forecasted variable rate debt to a fixed rate (i.e., cash flow hedge) over the payment term of the interest rate swap. The gain or loss on cash flow hedging instruments is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the transaction affects earnings. The Company does not enter into interest rate swap agreements for trading or speculative purposes.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.
On May 1, 2020, the Company entered into three interest rate swap contracts that were designated as cash flow hedges. The contracts included a notional amount of $46.4 million, $36.1 million, and $5.1 million. The Company pays a fixed interest rate of 0.40%, 0.34%, and 0.40%, respectively, and the counterparty pays to the Company a variable interest rate equal to the three-month LIBOR under the terms of the interest rate swap contracts. No cash was exchanged until the effective date, which began on May 1, 2020 and ends on April 1, 2022, March 15, 2022, and March 30, 2022, respectively. The Company designated the interest payments related to the trust preferred securities as the cash flow hedge. The hedge was fully effective during the current period. The Company expects the hedge to remain highly effective during the remaining term of the interest rate swap.
The Company also enters into certain interest rate swap contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative contracts relate to transactions in which the Company enters into an interest rate swap with a client while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with a third-party financial institution. Because the Company acts as an intermediary for the client, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts for the most part offset each other and do not significantly impact the Company’s results of operations.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into interest rate lock commitments to finance residential mortgage loans that are not designated as accounting hedges. These commitments, which contain fixed expiration dates, offer the borrower an interest rate guarantee, provided the loan meets underwriting guidelines and closes within the timeframe established by the Company. Interest rate risk arises on these commitments and subsequently closed loans if interest rates change between the time of the interest rate lock and the delivery of the loan to the investor. Loan commitments related to residential mortgage loans intended to be sold are considered derivatives and are marked to market through earnings. In addition to the effects of the change in market interest rate, the fair value measurement of the derivative also contemplates the expected cash flows to be received from the counterparty from the future sale of the loan.
The Company sells residential mortgage loans on either a best efforts or mandatory delivery basis. The Company mitigates the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing interest rate lock commitments by entering into forward loan sales contracts. During the interest rate lock commitment period, these forward loan sales contracts are marked to market through earnings and are not designated as accounting hedges. Exclusive of the fair value component associated with the projected cash flows from the loan delivery to the investor, the changes in fair value related to movements in market rates of the interest rate lock commitments and the forward loan sales contracts generally move in opposite directions, and the net impact of changes in these valuations on net income during the loan commitment period is generally inconsequential. When the loan is funded to the borrower, the interest rate lock commitment derivative expires, and the Company records a loan held for sale. The forward loan sales contract acts as a hedge against the variability in cash to be received from the loan sale. The changes in measurement of the estimated fair values of the interest rate lock commitments and forward loan sales contracts are included in mortgage banking revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

In connection with the adoption of CECL, or ASC 326, on January 1, 2020, the Company recognized an after-tax cumulative effect reduction to retained earnings totaling $24.1 million. In March 2020, the Office of the Comptroller of Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the FDIC issued an interim final rule that allows banking organizations to mitigate the effects of ASC 326 on their regulatory capital computations. This interim rule is in addition to the three-year transition period already in place under the capital transition rule previously issued in February 2019. Banking organizations can elect to mitigate the estimated cumulative regulatory capital effects for an additional two years. This rule allows an institution to defer transitioning the impact of ASC 326 into its regulatory capital calculation, including ratios, over an extended period. Additionally, the interim rule extends the transition period whereby an institution can defer the impact from ASC 326 on the current period, determined based on the difference between the new ASC 326 allowance for credit losses and the allowance for loan losses under the incurred loss method from previous GAAP, for up to two years. The total impact related to ASC 326 would then be transitioned into regulatory capital and the associated ratios over a three-year transition period, beginning after the initial two-year deferral period, for a total transition period of five years. The Company has elected to opt into the transition election and is adopting transition relief over the permissible five-year period.
(9)    Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various other claims and litigation. In the opinion of management, following consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate liability or disposition thereof of all other claims and litigation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.
As of March 31, 2021, the Company had commitments under construction contracts of $5.0 million.
Residential mortgage loans sold to investors in the secondary market are sold with varying recourse provisions. Essentially all the loan sales agreements require the repurchase of a mortgage loan by the seller in situations such as breach of representation, warranty, or covenant; untimely document delivery; false or misleading statements; failure to obtain certain certificates or insurance; or unmarketability. Certain loan sales agreements contain repurchase requirements based on payment-related defects that are defined in terms of the number of days or months since the purchase, the sequence number of the payment, and/or the number of days of payment delinquency. Based on the specific terms stated in the agreements, the Company had $0.6 million of sold residential mortgage loans with recourse provisions still in effect as of March 31, 2021.

(10)    Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its clients. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recorded in the consolidated balance sheets. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a client to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to clients. The Company’s policy for obtaining collateral, and the nature of such collateral, is essentially the same as that involved in making commitments to extend credit. The estimated fair value of the obligation undertaken by the Company in issuing standby letters of credit is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.    
The following table presents our financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, as well as the activity in the allowance for off-balance sheet credit losses related to those financial instruments:

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

(Dollars in millions, except share and per share data)
The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities
The methodologies used by the Company in determining the fair values of each class of financial instruments are based primarily on the use of independent, market-based data to reflect a value that would be reasonably expected in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, and therefore are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.
The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels as of the end of the reporting period. Transfers in and out of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 are recognized on the actual transfer date. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.
Further details on the methods used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments above are discussed below:
Investment Debt Securities Available-for-Sale. The Company obtains fair value measurements for investment securities from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the investment’s terms and conditions, among other things. Vendors chosen by the Company are widely recognized vendors whose evaluations support the pricing functions of financial institutions, investment and mutual funds, and portfolio managers. If needed, a broker may be utilized to determine the reported fair value of investment securities.
Loans Held for Sale. Fair value measurements for loans held for sale are obtained from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include binding contracts or quotes or bids from third party investors as well as loan level pricing adjustments.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts. Fair values for derivative interest rate swap contracts are based upon the estimated amounts to settle the contracts considering current interest rates and are calculated using discounted cash flows that are observable or that can be corroborated by observable market data. The inputs used to determine fair value include the three-month LIBOR forward curve to estimate variable rate cash inflows and the federal funds effective swap rate to estimate the discount rate. The estimated variable rate cash inflows are compared to the fixed rate outflows and such difference is discounted to a present value to estimate the fair value of the interest rate swaps. The change in the value of derivative assets attributable to basis risk, or the risk that offsetting investments in a hedging strategy will not experience price changes in entirely opposite directions from each other, was not significant in the reported periods. The Company also obtains and compares the reasonableness of the pricing from an independent third party.
For purposes of potential valuation adjustments to our derivative positions, we evaluate the credit risk of our counterparties as well as ours. Accordingly, we have considered factors such as the likelihood of our default and the default of our counterparties, our net exposures and remaining contractual life, among other things, in determining if any fair value adjustments related to credit risk are required. The change in value of derivative assets and derivative liabilities attributable to credit risk was not significant during the reported periods.
Interest Rate Lock Commitments. Fair value measurements for interest rate lock commitments are obtained from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include prices available from secondary market investors taking into consideration various characteristics of the loan, including the loan amount, interest rate, value of the servicing, and loan to value ratio, among other things. Observable data is then adjusted to reflect changes in interest rates, the Company’s estimated pull-through rate, and estimated direct costs necessary to complete the commitment into a closed loan net of origination and processing fees collected from the borrower.

Forward Loan Sales Contracts. The fair value measurements for forward loan sales contracts are obtained from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that includes sales of similar loans.
Deferred Compensation Plan Assets and Liabilities. The fair values of deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities are based primarily on the use of independent, market-based data to reflect a value that would be reasonably expected in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. These investments are in the same funds and purchased in the same amounts as the participants’ selected investments, which represent the underlying liabilities to plan participants. Deferred compensation plan liabilities are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of participants’ selected investments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Additionally, from time to time, certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Adjustments to fair value generally result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets due to credit deterioration. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis:

Collateral-dependent Loans. Collateral-dependent loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from collateral. The collateral-dependent loans are reported at fair value through specific valuation allowance allocations. In addition, when it is determined that the fair value of a collateral-dependent loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the carrying value of the loan is adjusted to fair value through a charge to the allowance for credit losses. Collateral values are estimated using independent appraisals and management estimates of current market conditions. As of March 31, 2021, certain collateral-dependent loans with a carrying value of $20.0 million were reduced by specific valuation allowance allocations of $1.1 million and partial charge-offs of $1.7 million resulting in a reported fair value of $17.2 million. As of December 31, 2020, certain collateral-dependent loans with a carrying value of $17.5 million were reduced by specific valuation allowance allocations of $2.8 million resulting in a reported fair value of $14.7 million.

OREO. The fair values of OREO are estimated using independent appraisals and management estimates of current market conditions. Upon initial recognition, write-downs based on the foreclosed asset’s fair value at foreclosure are reported through charges to the allowance for credit losses. Periodically, the fair value of foreclosed assets is remeasured with any subsequent write-downs charged to OREO expense in the period in which they are identified. The Company had no material write downs on OREO properties during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of by Sale. Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The fair values of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are based upon observable market data and management estimates of current market conditions. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale with carrying values aggregating $5.2 million, which was reduced by write-downs of $0.2 million, resulting in a fair value of $5.0 million. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale with carrying values aggregating $5.5 million, reduced by write-downs of $0.2 million, resulting in a fair value of $5.3 million.         
The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair values:

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate fair value. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are discussed above. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of other financial instruments are discussed below. For financial instruments bearing a variable interest rate where no credit risk exists, it is presumed that recorded book values are reasonable estimates of fair value.        
Financial Assets. Carrying values of cash, cash equivalents, and accrued interest receivable approximate fair values due to the liquid and/or short-term nature of these instruments. Fair values for investment securities held-to-maturity are obtained from an independent pricing service, which considers observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the investment’s terms and conditions, among other things. Fair values of fixed rate loans and variable rate loans that reprice on an infrequent basis are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality using an exit price notion. Carrying values of variable rate loans that reprice frequently, and with no change in credit risk, approximate the fair values of these instruments.
Financial Liabilities. The fair values of demand deposits, savings accounts, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and accrued interest payable are the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit are estimated using external market rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. The fair values of derivative liabilities are obtained from an independent pricing service, which considers observable data that may include the three-month LIBOR forward curve, the federal funds effective swap rate and cash flows, among other things. The carrying values of the interest-bearing demand notes to the United States Treasury are deemed an approximation of fair values due to the frequent repayment and repricing at market rates. The fixed and floating rate subordinated debentures, floating rate subordinated term loan, notes payable to the FHLB, fixed rate subordinated term debt, and capital lease obligation are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates for advances with similar characteristics.
Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit. The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, is not significant.

ASU 2018-14, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General: Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (ASU 2018-14). The amendments in this Update remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. Although narrow in scope, the amendments are considered an important part of the Board’s efforts to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements by applying concepts in the Concepts Statement. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, for public business entities. The amendments in this Update became effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, results of operations, or liquidity.

ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Accounting.” In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to loan and lease agreements, derivative contracts, and other transactions affected by the anticipated transition away from LIBOR toward new interest rate benchmarks. For transactions that are modified because of reference rate reform and that meet certain scope guidance (i) modifications of loan agreements should be accounted for by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate and the modification will be considered "minor" so that any existing unamortized origination fees/costs would carry forward and continue to be amortized and (ii) modifications of lease agreements should be accounted for as a continuation of the existing agreement with no reassessments of the lease classification and the discount rate or remeasurements of lease payments that otherwise would be required for modifications not accounted for as separate contracts. ASU 2020-04 is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may elect to apply ASU 2020-04 for contract modifications as of January 1, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. Once elected for a Topic or an Industry Subtopic within the Codification, the amendments in this ASU must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications for that Topic or Industry Subtopic. The Company adopted certain elections related to cash flow hedges which did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of other expedients in the standard and does not anticipate it will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
ASU 2020-08, “Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs.” In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-08, Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, that clarifies an entity should reevaluate whether a callable debt security is within the scope of paragraph 310-20-35-33 for each reporting period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments in this Update became effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, results of operations, or liquidity.
ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform Topic 848, that clarifies certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. An entity may elect to apply the amendments in this ASU on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or on a prospective basis to new modifications from any date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to the date of the issuance of a final ASU. If an entity elects to apply any of the amendments in this ASU for an eligible hedging relationship, any adjustments as a result of those elections must be reflected as of the date the entity applies the election. The amendments in this ASU do not apply to contract modifications made, new hedging relationships entered into, or existing hedging relationships evaluated for effectiveness in periods after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that apply certain optional expedients in which the accounting effects are recorded through the end of the hedging relationship (including periods after December 31, 2022). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard and does not anticipate it will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

We also derive income from non-interest sources such as: (i) fees received in connection with various lending and deposit services; (ii) wealth management services, such as trust, employee benefit, investment, and insurance services; (iii) mortgage loan originations, sales and servicing; (iv) merchant and electronic banking services; and (v) from time-to-time, gains on sales of assets and securities.
Our principal expenses include: (i) interest expense on deposits accounts and other borrowings; (ii) salaries and employee benefits; (iii) data processing and communication costs primarily associated with maintaining loan and deposit functions; (iv) furniture, equipment, and occupancy expenses for maintaining our facilities; (v) professional fees, including FDIC insurance assessments; (vi) income tax expense; (vii) provisions for credit losses; (viii) core deposit intangible amortization; and (ix) other real estate owned expenses.
Recent Trends and Developments
During the past few years, we have increased our community banking footprint across the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Northwest regions, in large part due to our acquisition activity. We continue to evaluate bank acquisitions and other strategic opportunities on an on-going basis.
The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a period of material economic slowdown and recent trends suggest that, while the ongoing recovery is progressing, the pace of the recovery will continue to be impacted by changing rates of positive diagnoses and the effectiveness of measures taken by U.S. and local governments. Management continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial results, making adjustments to operations where appropriate or necessary to minimize the impact of COVID-19. As of April 23, 2021, all of our branches and lobbies were open and less than 30% of Company employees continued to work remotely. While a formal timetable has not been established for the full work force to return to our facilities, there are no limitations for our employees to be on premises and we are seeing a larger percentage of our employees at our facilities for multiple days per week. The Company continues to avoid a significant disruption to its operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected our operations to a limited degree, but has had varying degrees of disruptions and restrictions to our borrowers and to our borrowers’ supply chains, closures of some facilities, and decreases in demand for certain products and services. Even with the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, recent increases in the spread of COVID-19 in multiple regions across the United States, including new strains of variants in the virus, have signaled that the scope, duration, and severity of the pandemic is not yet fully known. Although progress around vaccination efforts has the potential to generate positive economic momentum, there continues to be uncertainty as to the long-term effect on the economy and the Company.
Primary Factors Used in Evaluating Our Business
As a banking institution, we manage and evaluate various aspects of both our financial condition and our results of operations. We monitor our financial condition and performance and evaluate the levels and trends of the line items included in our balance sheet and statements of income, as well as various financial ratios that are commonly used in our industry. We analyze these ratios and financial trends against both our own historical levels and the financial condition and performance of comparable banking institutions in our region and nationally.
As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, our financial performance is impacted by a number of external factors outside our control, as well as our ability to execute on the key components of our strategy for continued success and future growth. There have been no material changes to these factors or key components of our strategy since the filing of the most recent Form 10-K.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and follow general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant accounting policies we follow are summarized in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as referenced in Note 1 to the unaudited financials in this quarterly report. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting estimates and policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, during the quarterly period covered by this quarterly report.

Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis is intended to provide detail about the results of our operations and financial condition.
Net Interest Income
Changes in interest rate spread, which is the difference between interest earned on assets and interest paid on liabilities, has the most significant impact on net interest income. Other factors like volume of loans, investment securities, and other interest earning assets compared to the volume of interest-bearing deposits and indebtedness also cause changes in our net interest income between periods. Non-interest-bearing sources of funds, such as demand deposits and stockholders’ equity, help to support earning assets.
The following table presents, for the periods indicated, condensed average balance sheet information, together with interest income and yields earned on average interest earning assets and interest expense and rates paid on average interest-bearing liabilities.

Our net interest income decreased $2.4 million, or 1.9%, to $120.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $123.1 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily the result of lower yields on interest earning assets, largely related to the March 2020 decrease in the federal funds rate and lower longer-term interest rates which were largely offset by significant growth in client deposit funds that drove growth in all earning asset categories and the addition of $12.3 million of interest income from PPP loans during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Net interest income included interest accretion related to the fair valuation of acquired loans of $2.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021, of which $1.2 million was the result of early loan payoffs. This compares to interest accretion of $3.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020, of which $1.1 million was the result of early loan payoffs. There were no material recoveries of previously charged-off interest included in net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.
Our net FTE interest margin ratio decreased 86 basis points to 3.04% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to 3.90% for the same period in 2020. The decrease was the result of a reduction in yields on earning assets, driven by the March 2020 reduction in the federal funds rate, the shift in mix toward both investment securities, the May 2020 debt issuance by the Company, and interest-bearing deposits in banks at lower yields. Growth in earning assets, enabled by strong growth in deposits, coupled with a decline in deposit costs and income generated from PPP loans partially offset the aforementioned pressures.
Exclusive of the impact of the recovery of charged-off interest and the impact of interest accretion on acquired loans, our net FTE interest margin ratio was 2.98% during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to 3.77% for the same period in 2020, or a 79 basis point decrease.         
The table below sets forth a summary of the changes in interest income and interest expense resulting from estimated changes in average asset and liability balances (volume) and estimated changes in average interest rates (referred to as “rate”) for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. Changes which are not due solely to volume or rate have been allocated to these categories based on the respective percent changes in average volume and average rate as they compare to each other.

Provision for (Reversal of) Credit Losses
The Company recorded a reversal of provision for credit losses of $5.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to a provision for credit losses of $29.0 million during same period in 2020, with the decrease attributable to both the improvement in our underlying asset quality metrics, and the significantly improved economic outlook assumptions driving our CECL model. The provision considers the impact of net charge-offs of $2.9 million, or an annualized 0.12% of average loans outstanding, for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $3.1 million, or an annualized 0.14% of average loans outstanding during same period in 2020. The reversal of the provision is comprised of a decrease in the allowance for credit losses on loans of $4.8 million and a decrease in the allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures of $0.3 million.

Non-interest Income
Our principal sources of non-interest income primarily include fee-based revenues such as payment services, mortgage banking and wealth management revenues, service charges on deposit accounts and other service charges, commissions and fees. The following table presents the composition of our non-interest income as of the dates indicated:
Non-interest income Three Months Ended March 31, $ Change % Change

Other income 4.1  3.6  0.5  13.9 
Total non-interest income $ 38.1  $ 38.4  $ (0.3) (0.8) %
Total non-interest income decreased $0.3 million, or 0.8%, to $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $38.4 million for the same period in 2020, primarily due to a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts due to changes in client behavior and higher deposit balances related to COVID-19 and the government stimulus payments, along with the Company’s decision to continue to support our clients by extending fee waivers. The decrease was partially offset by increases in mortgage banking revenues due to a mortgage servicing impairment recovery which was partially offset by the Company’s decision to retain a greater percentage of mortgage production and an increase in other income related to the sale of our Lynnwood branch.
Non-interest Expense
The following table presents the composition of our non-interest expense as of the dates indicated:

Non-interest expense increased $3.4 million, or 3.6%, to $98.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $95.0 million during the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of increases in employee benefits which were primarily due to increases in long term incentives and health insurance claims normalizing, when compared with a year ago, and furniture and equipment due to an increase in depreciation expense related to technology implementations.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate was 21.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to 21.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2020

Non-performing Assets
Non-accrual loans. We generally place loans on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past due unless they are well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed from income. Non-accrual loans decreased approximately $2.5 million, or 6.3%, to $37.0 million, as of March 31, 2021, from $39.5 million as of December 31, 2020. Accruing loans past due 90 days or more decreased $4.1 million, or 48.2%, primarily due to decreases in commercial real estate and agricultural loan portfolios. Other real estate owned decreased $0.3 million, or 12.0%, from December 31, 2020.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company performs a quarterly assessment of the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses in accordance with GAAP. The methodology used to assess the adequacy is consistently applied to the Company’s loans held for investment portfolio. The allowance for credit losses is established through a provision for credit losses based on our evaluation of quantitative and qualitative risk factors in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. In determining the allowance for credit losses, we estimate losses on specific loans, or groups of loans, where the expected loss can be identified and reasonably determined. The balance of the allowance for credit losses is based on internally assigned risk classifications of loans, historical loan loss rates, changes in the nature or tenure of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, current environmental and economic factors, and the estimated impact of current and forecasted economic conditions on certain historical loan loss rates.    
The allowance for credit losses is increased by provisions charged against earnings and net recoveries of charged-off loans and is reduced by negative provisions credited to earnings and net loan charge-offs. The allowance for credit losses consists of three elements:    
(1)Specific valuation allowances associated with collateral-dependent loans. Specific valuation allowances are determined based on assessment of the fair value of the collateral underlying the loans as determined through independent appraisals, the present value of future cash flows, observable market prices, and any relevant qualitative or environmental factors impacting loans.
(2)Historical valuation allowances based on loan loss experience for similar loans with similar characteristics and trends. The Company applies probability of default and loss given default methodologies for all portfolio segments. The Company uses a transition matrix for probability of default components of the methodology and a historical average for the loss given default components of the methodology. The probability of default and loss given default is applied to the current principal balance as of the reporting date. The transition matrix determines the probability of default by tracking the historical movement of loans between loan risk tiers over a defined period of time. Loan transitions are measured by either internal ratings or delinquency status. Those loans tracked by ratings are generally commercial purpose including agricultural, commercial, and commercial real estate. Those loans tracked by delinquency are generally consumer in nature, with the exception of multi-family and credit cards. The loss given default used as the basis for the estimate of credit losses is comprised of the Company’s historical loss experiences from 2008 to the current period, based on a migration analysis of our historical loss experience, designed to account for credit deterioration. The model compares the most recent period losses to prior period defaults to calculate the loss given default, which is averaged over the historical observations.
(3)General valuation allowances determined based on changes in the nature of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, general economic conditions or forecasts, and other qualitative risk factors, both internal and external to us, including the incorporation of a one-year forecast period for economic conditions.     
Based on the assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, the Company records provisions for credit losses to maintain the allowance for credit losses at appropriate levels.    
Loans acquired in business combinations are initially recorded at fair value as adjusted for credit risk and an allowance for credit losses at the date of acquisition. For loans with no significant evidence of credit deterioration since origination, the difference between the fair value and the unpaid principal balance of the loan at the acquisition date is amortized into interest income using the effective interest method over the remaining period to contractual maturity. An allowance for credit loss is recorded for the expected credit losses over the life of the loan on loans acquired without evidence of credit deterioration. Subsequent changes to the allowance for credit losses are recorded through provision expense using the same methodology as other loans held for investment.
For loans acquired in business combinations with evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination, the Company determines the fair value of the loans by estimating the amount and timing of principal and interest cash flows initially expected to be collected on the loans and discounting those cash flows at an appropriate market rate of interest. An allowance for credit losses is recognized by estimating the expected credit losses of the purchased asset and recording an adjustment to the acquisition date fair value to establish the initial amortized cost basis of the asset. Differences between the established amortized cost basis, and the unpaid principal balance of the asset, is considered to be a non-credit discount/premium and is accreted/amortized into interest income using the level yield interest method. Subsequent changes to the allowance for credit losses are recorded through provision expense using the same methodology as other loans held for investment.
41


Table of Contents
Loans, or portions thereof, are charged-off against the allowance for credit losses when management believes the collectability of the principal is unlikely, or, with respect to consumer installment loans, according to an established delinquency schedule. Generally, loans are charged-off when (1) there has been no material principal reduction within the previous 90 days and there is no pending sale of collateral or other assets, (2) there is no significant or pending event which will result in principal reduction within the upcoming 90 days, (3) it is clear that we will not be able to collect all or a portion of the loan, (4) payments on the loan are sporadic, will result in an excessive amortization, or are not consistent with the collateral held, or (5) foreclosure or repossession actions are pending. Loan charge-offs do not directly correspond with the receipt of independent appraisals or the use of observable market data if the collateral value is determined to be sufficient to repay the principal balance of the loan.
If a collateral-dependent loan is adequately collateralized, a specific valuation allowance is not recorded. As such, significant changes in collateral-dependent and non-performing loans do not necessarily correspond proportionally with changes in the specific valuation component of the allowance for credit losses. Additionally, the Company expects the timing of charge-offs will vary between quarters and will not necessarily correspond proportionally to changes in the allowance for credit losses or changes in non-performing or collateral dependent loans due to timing differences among the initial identification of a collateral-dependent loan, recording of a specific valuation allowance for collateral-dependent loans, and any resulting charge-off of uncollectible principal.
The following table sets forth information regarding our allowance for credit losses as of and for the periods indicated.

Our allowance for credit losses on loans was $136.6 million, or 1.38% of loans held for investment as of March 31, 2021, including PPP loans, as compared to $144.3 million, or 1.47% of loans held for investment, as of December 31, 2020. The decrease in the percentage from December 31, 2020 is primarily a result of changes in the Company’s internal economic forecast. The allowance for credit losses represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses in the loan portfolio expected over the life of the loan, including the incorporation of a one-year forecast period for economic conditions.
While the allowance for credit losses on loans of 1.38% considers the PPP loan balances, the allowance for credit losses does not include a reserve on the 100% Small Business Administration guaranteed PPP loans. The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of period-end loans held for investment would have been 13 basis points higher had the PPP loan balances been excluded at March 31, 2021.
Investment Securities
We manage our investment portfolio to obtain the highest yield possible, while meeting our risk tolerance and liquidity guidelines and satisfying the pledging requirements for deposits of state and political subdivisions and securities sold under repurchase agreements. Our portfolio principally comprises U.S. government agency residential mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, U.S. government agency securities, and tax-exempt securities. Federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits in bank are additional investments that are classified as cash equivalents rather than as investment securities. Investment securities classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value, while investment securities classified as held-to-maturity are recorded at amortized cost. Unrealized gains or losses, net of the deferred tax effect, on available-for-sale securities are reported as increases or decreases in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, a component of stockholders’ equity.
Investment securities increased $826.1 million, or 20.3%, to $4,886.4 million, or 26.5% of total assets, as of March 31, 2021, from $4,060.3 million, or 23.0% of total assets, as of December 31, 2020. The increase is primarily due to the investment of funds generated through deposit growth.
As of March 31, 2021, the estimated duration of our investment portfolio was 4.3 years, as compared to 3.3 years as of December 31, 2020.
As of March 31, 2021, we had available-for-sale investment securities with fair values aggregating $11.3 million that had been in a continuous loss position for more than twelve months. Gross unrealized losses on these securities of $0.1 million as of March 31, 2021 were attributable to changes in interest rates. As the Company does not have the intent to sell any of the available-for-sale securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any securities before a recovery in cost, no credit impairment was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2021 or 2020.
Deposits
Our deposits consist of non-interest-bearing and interest-bearing demand, savings, individual retirement, and time deposit accounts. Total deposits increased $877.0 million, or 6.2%, to $15,094.0 million as of March 31, 2021, from $14,217.0 million as of December 31, 2020. The increase is primarily attributable to proceeds from government stimulus and the general economic health of our communities, resulting in higher cash balances maintained by clients.

Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreement
In addition to deposits, repurchase agreements with commercial depositors, which include municipalities, provide an additional source of funds. Under repurchase agreements, deposit balances are invested in short-term U.S. government agency securities overnight and are then repurchased the following day. All outstanding repurchase agreements are due in one day and balances fluctuate in the normal course of business. Repurchase agreement balances increased $38.8 million, or 3.6%, to $1,052.6 million as of March 31, 2021, from $1,091.4 million as of December 31, 2020, as a result of normal fluctuations in account balances.
Deferred Tax Asset / Liability
Our deferred tax liability, net, decreased $7.3 million, or 26.8%, to $19.9 million as of March 31, 2021, from $27.2 million as of December 31, 2020, primarily due to the decrease in our mark-to-market gains partially offset by a decrease in our allowance for credit losses.
Capital Resources and Liquidity Management
Stockholders’ equity is influenced primarily by earnings, dividends, sales and redemptions of common stock, and changes in the unrealized holding gains or losses, net of taxes, on available-for-sale investment securities. Stockholders’ equity decreased $26.4 million, or 1.3%, to $1,933.4 million as of March 31, 2021, from $1,959.8 million as of December 31, 2020, due to stock repurchases related to the stock repurchase program, stock repurchases of vested restricted shares tendered in lieu of cash for payment of income tax withholding amounts by participants, changes in other comprehensive loss, and cash dividends paid. This decrease was offset by retention of earnings and proceeds from stock option exercises.
On April 26, 2021, the Company’s board of directors declared a dividend of $0.41 per common share, payable on May 21, 2021, to common stockholders of record as of May 11, 2021. The dividend equates to a 3.7% annual yield based on the $44.49 average closing pricing of the Company’s common stock during the first quarter of 2021.
On June 11, 2019, the Company’s board of directors adopted a stock repurchase program where the Company may repurchase up to 2.5 million of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock. On September 12, 2020, the Company’s board of directors increased the number of shares of Class A common stock authorized to be repurchased by the Company under the stock repurchase program by an additional 3.0 million shares for a total of 5.5 million shares.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company repurchased and retired a total of 72,700 shares of our Class A common stock at a total cost of $2.9 million, including costs and commissions, at an average cost of $39.69 per share. As of March 31, 2021, there were 1.9 million shares remaining authorized to be repurchased under the repurchase program.
As a bank holding company, the Company must comply with the capital requirements established by the Federal Reserve, and our subsidiary Bank must comply with the capital requirements established by the FDIC. The current risk-based guidelines applicable to us and our Bank are based on the Basel III framework, as implemented by the federal bank regulators. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had capital levels that, in all cases, exceeded the guidelines to be deemed “well-capitalized.” For additional information regarding our capital levels, see “Note – Regulatory Capital” in the accompanying “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements” included in this report.
Liquidity. Liquidity measures our ability to meet current and future cash flow needs on a timely basis and at a reasonable cost. We manage our liquidity position to meet the daily cash flow needs of clients, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return-on-investment objectives of our shareholders. Our liquidity position is supported by management of liquid assets and liabilities and access to alternative sources of funds. Liquid assets include cash, interest bearing deposits in banks, federal funds sold, available-for-sale investment securities, and maturing or prepaying balances in our held-to-maturity investment and loan portfolios. Liquid liabilities include core deposits, federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and borrowings. Other sources of liquidity include the sale of loans, the ability to acquire additional national market funds through non-core deposits, the issuance of additional collateralized borrowings such as FHLB advances, the issuance of debt securities, additional borrowings through the Federal Reserve’s discount window, and the issuance of preferred or common securities.
Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are primarily to fund on-going operations, including payment of interest on deposits and debt, extensions of credit to borrowers, capital expenditures, and shareholder dividends. These liquidity requirements are met primarily through cash flow from operations, redeployment of prepaying and maturing balances in our loan and investment portfolios, debt financing, and increases in client deposits.

regarding our operating, investing, and financing cash flows, see the unaudited “Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows,” included in Part I, Item 1.    
As a holding company, we are a corporation separate and apart from our subsidiary Bank and, therefore, we provide for our own liquidity. Our primary sources of funding include management fees and dividends declared and paid by the Bank and access to capital markets. There are statutory, regulatory, and debt covenant limitations that affect the ability of our Bank to pay dividends to us. Management believes that such limitations will not impact our ability to meet our ongoing short-term cash obligations.    
The Company continuously monitors our liquidity position and adjustments are made to the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. We are not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, capital resources, or operations. In addition, we are not aware of any regulatory recommendations regarding liquidity, which if implemented, would have a material adverse effect on us.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. As of March 31, 2021, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021 were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods required by the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such control.
Limitations on Controls and Procedures
The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time. Because of these limitations, any system of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting may not be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.

Exhibit 10.1
FIRST AMENDMENT
TO THE
FIRST INTERSTATE BANCSYSTEM, INC.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

RECITALS
A.Section 9.8 of the First Interstate BancSystem, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan, restated effective January 1, 2016 (the “Plan”) gives First Interstate BancSystem, Inc. (the “Plan Sponsor”) the right to amend the Plan at any time.
B.On July 26, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor delegated authority to the First Interstate BancSystem, Inc. Benefits Committee (the “Committee”) to amend the Plan to modify Plan design, including without limitation any modification of Plan provisions governing eligibility and/or benefits, in any manner which the Benefits Committee has determined will not cause any substantial increase in the cost to the Plan Sponsor or its subsidiaries of maintaining the Plan, or any substantial reduction in the overall level of benefits provided to employees under the Plan.
C.The following are amendments to the Plan adopted by the Committee as of the date specified below.

AMENDMENT OF PLAN
Sections 5.1(a) of the Plan is amended to add the following at the end of thereof:
Effective for contributions made to a Retirement Account effective on or after January 1, 2017, a Participant may elect substantially equal annual or monthly installments over a period not to exceed fifteen (15) years.
Section 5.1(c) of the Plan is amended to read as follows:
(c)If annual installments are elected, the amount of each annual payment will be determined by multiplying the Account by a fraction, the denominator of which for the first payment equals the number years over which benefits are to be paid, and the numerator of which is one (1). The amount of each succeeding payment shall be determined by multiplying the Account balance as of each anniversary of the first installment by a fraction, the denominator of which equals the number of remaining years over which benefits are to be paid, and the numerator of which is one (1).
If monthly installments are elected, the amount of each monthly payment will be determined on an annual basis by multiplying the Account by a fraction, the denominator of which for the first payment equals the number of months over which benefits are to be paid, and the numerator of which is one (1). For the remainder of the calendar year, each monthly payment will equal that amount.
The amounts of monthly payments in succeeding calendar years will be determined by multiplying the Account balance as of the first of the calendar year by a fraction, the denominator of which equals the number of remaining months over which benefits are paid, and the numerator of which is one (1). For the remainder of the calendar year, each monthly payment will equal that amount. The amount of the last monthly payment will equal the remaining Account balance, which may be greater or less than the amount of the previous month’s payment, to reflect investment gains and/or losses as provided in Section 4.3.
Section 5.3(a) of the Plan is amended to read as follows:
Retirement Accounts shall be paid: (i) if in a lump sum, within 90 days after the Participant’s Retirement, in which case the Participant will have no ability to designate the taxable year of the payment; or (ii) if in installments, the first installment will be made within 90 days after the Participant’s Retirement, in which case the Participant will have no ability to designate the taxable year of the payment, and each subsequent installment will be made (if annual installments) on the annual anniversary of the Retirement Date, or (if monthly installments) on an administratively feasible day in each following month.
All other provisions of the Plan shall remain unamended and in full force.





The Committee adopts this First Amendment, effective as of January 1, 2017, by unanimous consent of all members of the Committee, as permitted by Section 5.2 of the Committee Charter.

Exhibit 10.2

FIRST INTERSTATE BANCSYSTEM, INC. 2015 EQUITY AND INCENTIVE PLAN
202_ PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT AGREEMENT
This Restricted Stock Grant Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the date specified in Exhibit A and referred to as (the “Grant Date”) between First Interstate BancSystem, Inc., a Montana corporation (the “Company”), and the below named Participant, an employee of the Company.
The Company and Participant agree as follows:
1.Precedence of Plan. This Agreement is subject to and will be construed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the First Interstate BancSystem, Inc. 2015 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as now or hereinafter in effect. Any capitalized terms that are used in this Agreement without being defined and that are defined in the Plan will have the meaning specified in the Plan.
2.Grant of Restricted Stock Award. Participant is hereby granted a Restricted Stock Award of the shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) listed on the attached Exhibit A. In addition, Participant is granted the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) as further provided in this Agreement.
3.Vesting.
a.Performance Vesting. To the extent that the following performance criteria are met over the period January 1, 202_ through December 31, 202_ (the “Performance Period”), the Shares will vest, and the Additional Shares will be issued on March 15, 202_ (the “Vesting Date”):
i.The proportion of Shares that will vest and Additional Shares that will be issued will be based on the percentile ranking of the Company over the Performance Period, relative to the Comparator Banks, for each of the following metrics: (1) Total Shareholder Return (TSR), calculated using a closing price average of the 20 trading days immediately prior to the Performance Period and last 20 trading days of the Performance Period; and (2) Adjusted Return on Average Equity (“Adjusted ROAE”). Adjusted ROAE is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by Average Equity. Adjusted Net Income is defined as pretax net income, minus non-recurring revenue items, plus non-recurring expense items, with non-recurring items being defined by S&P Global (or its successor). Adjusted ROAE will be calculated as an average of the respective measures for each of the three calendar years of the Performance Period for the Company and all Comparator Banks, regardless of each entity’s fiscal year end. Relative performance results for TSR and Adjusted ROAE will be calculated separately, with total Shares vested and Additional Shares issued, if any, based on the sum of the results for the two metrics weighted equally.
ii.“Comparator Banks” for this purpose means commercial banks headquartered in the U.S. that are both (1) traded on NYSE, NYSE American or Nasdaq throughout the entire Performance Period; and (2) have total assets between 50% and 200% of the Company’s assets as of the beginning of the Performance Period. The Company itself will not be included in the set of Comparator Banks. A Comparator Bank included in the defined group at the beginning of the Performance Period that falls outside the total asset metric due to merger or acquisition during the Performance Period will be excluded from the calculation for the entire Performance Period.
iii.The TSR calculation will assume dividends paid during the Performance Period are reinvested in shares of stock.
iv.The amount, if any, of Shares vested and Additional Shares issued will be determined as follows:
1.If the Company’s percentile rank is less than 35%, then 0% of the Shares will vest on the Vesting Date and no Additional Shares will be issued.
2.If the Company’s percentile rank is greater than or equal to 35% and less than 50%, between 50% and 100% (the actual amount determined by linear interpolation) of that portion of the Shares will vest on the Vesting Date and 0% of that portion of the Additional Shares will be issued.
3.If the Company’s percentile rank is greater than or equal to 50% and less than 90%, 100% of that portion of the Shares will vest on the Vesting Date and between 0% and 100% (the actual amount determined by linear interpolation) of that portion of the Additional Shares will be issued.



4.If the Company’s percentile rank is greater than or equal to 90%, 100% of that portion of the Shares will vest on the Vesting Date and 100% of that portion of the Additional Shares will be issued (for a total issuance of 200% of the Shares).
5.Notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s calculated TSR over the Performance Period is negative, no Additional Shares will be issued regardless of the Company’s relative performance ranking.
b.Death or Disability. If Participant's Continuous Service is terminated due to death or Disability prior to the Vesting Date, the Participant will be entitled to 100% of the Shares regardless of attainment of the performance criteria and the restrictions on such Shares described in Section 4 will be immediately removed. No Additional Shares will be issued.
c.Retirement. If Participant's Continuous Service is terminated due to retirement at or after age 65 prior to the Vesting Date, the Participant will remain entitled to the Shares and Additional Shares, subject to attainment of the performance criteria on the Vesting Date.
d.Dissolution or Reorganization. As provided in the Plan, if the Company is a party to a Reorganization Event in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, the Restricted Stock Award may be assumed or substituted with substantially equivalent awards by the acquiring or succeeding corporation in the Committee’s discretion. To the extent the Restricted Stock Award is not assumed by the acquiring or succeeding corporation, the Committee may provide that (1) the Restricted Stock Award will vest in whole or in part prior to or upon consummation of the Reorganization Event, or (2) that the Restricted Stock Award will be terminated in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the realization of the Participant’s rights as of the date of the occurrence of the Reorganization Event (and if as of the date of the occurrence of the Reorganization Event the Committee determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Restricted Stock Award may be terminated by the Company without payment).
