Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
Nature of Operations
Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company” or “LOB”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Wilmington, North Carolina incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina in December 2008. The Company conducts business operations primarily through its commercial bank subsidiary, Live Oak Banking Company (the “Bank”). The Bank was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina on February 25, 2008 and commenced operations on May 12, 2008. The Bank specializes in lending and deposit related services to small businesses nationwide. The Bank identifies and extends lending to credit-worthy borrowers both within specific industries, also called verticals, through expertise within those industries, and more broadly to select borrowers outside of those industries. A significant portion of the loans originated by the Bank are guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) under the 7(a) Loan Program and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s ("USDA") Rural Energy for America Program ("REAP"), Water and Environmental Program (“WEP”) and Business & Industry ("B&I") loan programs.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries are the Bank, Government Loan Solutions (“GLS”), Live Oak Grove, LLC (the “Grove”), Live Oak Ventures, Inc. (“Live Oak Ventures”), and Canapi Advisors, LLC (“Canapi Advisors”).
The Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries are Live Oak Number One, Inc., Live Oak Clean Energy Financing LLC (“LOCEF”), and Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC. Live Oak Number One, Inc. holds properties foreclosed on by the Bank. LOCEF provides financing to entities for renewable energy applications. Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiary, Jolley Asset Management, LLC (“JAM”), provide high-net-worth individuals and families with strategic wealth and investment management services.
GLS is a management and technology consulting firm that advises and offers solutions and services to participants in the government guaranteed lending sector. GLS primarily provides services in connection with the settlement, accounting, and securitization processes for government guaranteed loans, including loans originated under the SBA 7(a) loan programs and USDA guaranteed loans. The Grove provides Company employees and business visitors an on-site restaurant location. Live Oak Ventures’ purpose is investing in businesses that align with the Company's strategic initiative to be a leader in financial technology. Canapi Advisors provides investment advisory services to a series of funds focused on providing venture capital to new and emerging financial technology companies.
The Company generates revenue primarily from net interest income and secondarily through the origination and sale of government guaranteed loans. Income from the retention of loans is comprised of interest income. The Company had historically elected to account for certain loans under the fair value option with interest reported in interest income and changes in fair value reported in the net (loss) gain on loans accounted for under the fair value option line item of the consolidated statements of income. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company chose not to elect fair value for all retained participating interests arising from new government guaranteed loan sales. Income from the sale of loans is comprised of loan servicing revenue and revaluation of related servicing assets along with net gains on sales of loans. Offsetting these revenues are the cost of funding sources, provision for loan and lease credit losses, any costs related to foreclosed assets and other operating costs such as salaries and employee benefits, travel, professional services, advertising and marketing and tax expense. The Company also has less routinely generated gains and losses arising from its financial technology investments in its fintech segment.
General
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included, and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on February 25, 2021 (SEC File No. 001-37497) (the "2020 Form 10-K"). A summary description of the significant accounting policies followed by the Company is set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes in the Company's 2020 Form 10-K.

Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Amounts in all tables in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been presented in thousands, except percentage, time period, stock option, share and per share data or where otherwise indicated.
Business Segments
Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Management has determined that the Company has two significant operating segments: Banking and Fintech, as discussed more fully in Note 12. Segments. In determining the appropriateness of segment definition, the Company considers the criteria of ASC 280, Segment Reporting.
Business Combination
On April 1, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests of JAM, a registered investment advisor based in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Goodwill, intangible assets and contingent consideration of $1.8 million, $2.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively, were recorded by the Company. Intangible assets are almost entirely comprised of customer relationships that are being amortized using the straight-line method over 15 years. As a result of this acquisition, the Bank's subsidiary Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC, has broadened service offerings to existing high-net-worth individuals and families, attracts new clients from an expanded footprint and benefits from economies of scale. The acquisition did not materially impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Given the impact of the above acquisition was immaterial to the Company and its result of operations, pro forma information has not been included.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s condensed consolidated financial statements to place them on a comparable basis with the current year. Net income and shareholders’ equity previously reported were not affected by these reclassifications.
Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 simplifies accounting for income taxes by removing specific technical exceptions in ASC 740 related to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition for deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2021 with no material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, “Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)-Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815” (“ASU 2020-01”). ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction between accounting standards related to equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivatives including accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2021 with no material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments are effective for and can be adopted by the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company does not believe this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Earnings Per Share
Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur upon the exercise of stock options or upon the vesting of restricted stock grants, any of which would result in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the net income of the Company.

Management evaluates available-for-sale debt securities to determine whether the unrealized loss is due to credit-related factors or non-credit-related factors. The evaluation considers the extent to which the security’s fair value is less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
At September 30, 2021, there were twelve mortgage-backed securities and one municipal bond in unrealized loss positions for greater than 12 months and one hundred twenty two mortgage-backed securities in unrealized loss positions for less than 12 months. Unrealized losses at December 31, 2020 were comprised of three mortgage-backed securities and one municipal bond in unrealized loss positions for greater than 12 months and twenty-nine mortgage-backed securities in unrealized loss positions for less than 12 months.
These unrealized losses are primarily the result of non-credit-related volatility in the market and market interest rates. Since none of the unrealized losses relate to marketability of the securities or the issuer’s ability to honor redemption obligations and the Company has the intent and ability to hold the securities for a sufficient period of time to recover unrealized losses, none of the losses have been recognized in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
All mortgage-backed securities in the Company’s portfolio at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were backed by U.S. government sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”).

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans and Leases
During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, management updated the Company’s policy for estimating expected credit losses on certain relationships that would otherwise meet the criteria for individual evaluation. Relationships with unguaranteed exposure of less than $250 thousand are now collectively evaluated using an average of loss rates applied to individually evaluated relationships with unguaranteed exposure between $250 thousand and $1.0 million. See Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K for further description of the methodologies used to estimate the allowance for credit losses.
The following table details activity in the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) by portfolio segment allowance for the periods presented:

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, increases to the ACL were primarily related to loan growth which has outpaced the improvement in forecasted unemployment rates and other conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Unemployment rates were forecasted for twelve months followed by a twelve-month straight-line reversion period. Additionally, the provision expense was impacted by net charge-offs during the periods.

Note 6. Leases
Lessor Equipment Leasing
The Company purchases new equipment for the purpose of leasing such equipment to customers within its verticals. Equipment purchased to fulfill commitments to commercial renewable energy projects is rented out under operating leases while leases of equipment outside of the renewable energy vertical are generally direct financing leases. Accordingly, leased assets under operating leases are included in premises and equipment while leased assets under direct financing leases are included in loans and leases held for investment.
Direct Financing Leases
Interest income on direct financing leases is recognized when earned. Unearned interest is recognized over the lease term on a basis which results in a constant rate of return on the unrecovered lease investment. The term of each lease is generally 3-7 years which is consistent with the useful life of the equipment with no residual value. The gross lease payments receivable and the net investment included in accounts receivable for such leases are as follows:

Interest income of $159 thousand and $199 thousand was recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Interest income of $517 thousand and $644 thousand was recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Operating Leases
The term of each operating lease is generally 10 to 15 years. The Company retains ownership of the equipment and associated tax benefits such as investment tax credits and accelerated depreciation. At the end of the lease term, the lessee has the option to renew the lease for two additional terms or purchase the equipment at the then-current fair market value.
Rental revenue from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated to an estimated residual value on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life. The useful lives generally range from 20 to 25 years and residual values generally range from 20% to 50%, however, they are subject to periodic evaluation. Changes in useful lives or residual values will impact depreciation expense and any gain or loss from the sale of used equipment. The estimated useful lives and residual values of the Company's leasing equipment are based on industry disposal experience and the Company's expectations for future sale prices.
If the Company decides to sell or otherwise dispose of rental equipment, it is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell or dispose. Repair and maintenance costs that do not extend the lives of the rental equipment are charged to direct operating expenses at the time the costs are incurred.
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had a net investment of $126.3 million and $134.5 million, respectively, in assets included in premises and equipment that are subject to operating leases. Of the net investment, the gross balance of the assets was $163.4 million and $164.3 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and accumulated depreciation was $37.1 million and $29.8 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Depreciation expense recognized on these assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $2.4 million and $7.3 million, respectively.
Lease income of $2.4 million was recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Lease income of $7.2 million and $7.1 million were recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a weighted average discount rate of 12.3% on September 30, 2021 and 9.1% on September 30, 2020. The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a weighted average prepayment speed of 16.7% on September 30, 2021 and 19.1% on September 30, 2020, with the actual rate depending on the stratification of the specific right. Changes to fair value are reported in loan servicing asset revaluation within the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The fair value of servicing rights is highly sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions. Changes in prepayment speed assumptions typically have the most significant impact on the fair value of servicing rights. Generally, as interest rates rise on variable rate loans, loan prepayments increase due to an increase in refinance activity, which results in a decrease in the fair value of servicing assets, however, weakening economic conditions or significant declines in interest rates can also increase loan prepayment activity. Measurement of fair value is limited to the conditions existing and the assumptions used as of a particular point in time, and those assumptions may not be appropriate if they are applied at a different time.

Note 9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value Hierarchy
There are three levels of inputs in the fair value hierarchy that may be used to measure fair value. Financial instruments are considered Level 1 when valuation can be based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 financial instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or models using inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data of substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable and when determination of the fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
Recurring Fair Value
The following sections provide a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy:
Investment securities: Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, discounted cash flow or at net asset value per share. Level 2 securities would include U.S. government agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed mutual fund and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Loans held for sale: The fair values of loans held for sale are determined by discounting estimated cash flows using interest rates approximating prevailing market rates for similar loans adjusted to reflect the inherent credit risk. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, loans held for sale are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Loans held for investment: The fair values of loans held for investment are typically determined based on discounted cash flow analyses using market-based interest rate spreads. Discounted cash flow analyses are adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect current market conditions and borrower-specific credit risk. If the loan is collateral dependent, the fair value is determined based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. Fair value of the loan’s collateral is determined by appraisals, independent valuation, or management’s estimation of fair value which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, loans held for investment are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Servicing assets: Servicing rights do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. While sales of servicing rights do occur, the precise terms and conditions typically are not readily available. Accordingly, the Company estimates the fair value of servicing rights using discounted cash flow models incorporating numerous assumptions from the perspective of a market participant including servicing income, servicing costs, market discount rates and prepayment speeds. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, servicing rights are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Mutual fund: The below mutual fund is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company and operates as an interval fund. The fund primarily invests in the unguaranteed portion of SBA504 First Lien Loans secured by owner-occupied commercial real estate. This investment is valued using quoted prices in markets that are not active and is classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Equity warrant assets: Fair value measurements of equity warrant assets of private companies are priced based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the asset value by using stated strike prices, option expiration dates, risk-free interest rates and option volatility assumptions. Option volatility assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model are based on public companies that operate in similar industries as the companies in the Company’s private company portfolio. Option expiration dates are modified to account for estimates of actual life relative to stated expiration. Values are further adjusted for a general lack of liquidity due to the private nature of the associated underlying company. The Company classifies equity warrant assets within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
The table below provides a rollforward of the Level 3 equity warrant asset fair values.

Fair Value Option
The Company has historically elected to account for retained participating interests of all government guaranteed loans under the fair value option in order to align the accounting presentation with the Company’s viewpoint of the economics of the loans. Interest income on loans accounted for under the fair value option is recognized in loans and fees on loans on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, the Company chose not to elect fair value for all retained participating interests arising from new government guaranteed loan sales. Not electing fair value generally results in a larger discount being recorded on the date of the sale. This discount is subsequently accreted into interest income over the underlying loan’s remaining term using the effective interest method. Management made this change of election in alignment with its ongoing effort to reduce volatility and drive more predictable revenue. In accordance with accounting standards, any loans for which fair value was previously elected will continue to be measured as such.
There were no loans accounted for under the fair value option that were 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest at September 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020. The unpaid principal balance of unguaranteed exposure for nonaccruals was $7.9 million and $6.9 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
The following tables provide more information about the fair value carrying amount and the unpaid principal outstanding of loans accounted for under the fair value option at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Non-recurring Fair Value
The following sections provide a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy:
Collateral-dependent loans: Loans are considered collateral-dependent when the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable or when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the loan is expected to be repaid substantially through the operation or sale of collateral. A collateral-dependent loan’s ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. Fair value of the loan’s collateral is determined by appraisals, independent valuation, or management’s estimation of fair value which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral. Collateral-dependent loans are generally classified as Level 3 based on management’s judgment and estimation. Loans with agreed upon sales prices are classified as Level 1.
Foreclosed assets: Foreclosed real estate is adjusted to fair value less selling costs upon transfer of the loans to foreclosed real estate. Subsequently, foreclosed real estate is carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. Given the lack of observable market prices for identical properties and market discounts applied to appraised values, the Company generally classifies foreclosed assets as nonrecurring Level 3.
Long-lived asset held for sale: Long-lived assets held for sale are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less selling costs. Fair value is based upon an independent market valuation of the property. Given the lack of observable market prices for identical assets and market discounts applied to market prices, the Company generally classifies long-lived assets held for sale as nonrecurring Level 3.
Equity security investments with a non-readily determinable fair value: Equity security investments are measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. When an observable price change in an orderly transaction occurs for an identical investment of the same issuer, the investment is generally classified as nonrecurring Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy. When an observable price change in an orderly transaction occurs for a similar investment of the same issuer, the investment is generally classified as nonrecurring Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings. Management believes that the outcome of such proceedings will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
On March 12, 2021, a purported class action was filed against the Company in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, Joseph McAlear, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. et al. The complaint alleges the existence of an agreement between the Company, nCino, Inc. and Apiture, LLC in which those companies purportedly sought to restrain the mobility of employees in violation of antitrust laws by agreeing not to solicit or hire each other’s employees. The complaint alleges violations of Section 1 of the federal Sherman Act (15 U.S.C. § 1) and violations of Sections 75-1 and 75-2 of the North Carolina General Statutes. The plaintiff seeks monetary damages, including treble damages, entitlement to restitution, disgorgement, attorneys’ fees, and pre- and post-judgment interest. On October 12, 2021, the Company reached an agreement to settle the case with a proposed class of all persons (with certain exclusions) employed by the Company or its wholly-owned subsidiary, Live Oak Banking Company, Apiture, Inc. or nCino, Inc. in North Carolina at any time from January 27, 2017, through March 31, 2021. In the agreement, the Company agreed to pay $3.9 million. On October 13, 2021, the plaintiff filed a motion for preliminary approval of the settlement, and that motion remains pending before the court.
Financial Instruments with Off-balance-sheet Risk
The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the Company’s commitments is as follows:

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties. Commitment letters are issued after approval of the loan by the Credit Department and generally expire ninety days after issuance.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Collateral held varies as specified above and is required in instances which the Company deems necessary.
The balance of the allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures was $611 thousand and $746 thousand at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had unfunded commitments to provide capital contributions for on-balance-sheet investments in the amount of $11.0 million and $15.8 million, respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The distribution of commitments to extend credit approximates the distribution of loans outstanding. The Company does not have a significant number of credits to any single borrower or group of related borrowers whereby their retained unguaranteed exposure exceeds $15.0 million, except for 25 relationships that have a retained unguaranteed exposure of $637.7 million of which $284.8 million of the unguaranteed exposure has been disbursed.
Additionally, the Company has future minimum lease payments receivable under non-cancelable operating leases totaling $69.0 million, of which $21.2 million is due from one relationship.
The Company from time-to-time may have cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions that exceed federally-insured limits.
Note 11. Stock Plans
On March 20, 2015, the Company adopted the 2015 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan which replaced the previously existing Amended Incentive Stock Option Plan and Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan. Subsequently on May 24, 2016 and May 15, 2018, the 2015 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan was amended to authorize awards covering a maximum of 7,000,000 and 8,750,000 common voting shares, respectively. On May 11, 2021, the Amended and Restated 2015 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan was amended to authorize awards covering a maximum of 10,750,000 common voting shares. Options or restricted shares granted under the Amended and Restated 2015 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") expire no more than 10 years from the date of grant. Exercise prices under the Plan are set by the Board of Directors at the date of grant, but shall not be less than 100% of fair market value of the related stock at the date of the grant. Options vest over a minimum of three years from the date of the grant. Restricted stock grants vest in equal installments ranging from immediate vesting to over a seven-year period from the date of the grant. Market Restricted Stock Units also have a restriction based on the passage of time and have a restriction based on market price criteria related to the Company’s share price closing at or above a specified price defined at time of grant, but also may have non-market-related performance criteria.
Stock Options
There were no stock options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
At September 30, 2021, unrecognized compensation costs relating to stock options amounted to $1.2 million which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.98 years.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Restricted Stock
Restricted stock awards are authorized in the form of restricted stock awards or units ("RSU"s) and restricted stock awards or units with a market price condition ("Market RSU"s).
RSUs have a restriction based on the passage of time and may also have a restriction based on a non-market-related performance criteria. The fair value of the RSUs is based on the closing price on the date of the grant.
There were no Market RSUs granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 575,500 Market RSUs met the performance stock price condition for the $45.00, $48.00, $50.00 and $55.00 stock price for twenty (20) consecutive trading days. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the remaining expense of $3.7 million was fully recognized due to the accelerated vesting. The weighted average grant date fair value for the 575,500 vested Market RSUs was $7.62.
There are no remaining Market RSUs at September 30, 2021.
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, 339,118 RSUs were granted with a weighted average grant date fair value of $61.11. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 1,155,694 RSUs were granted with a weighted average grant date fair value of $54.01. Of the RSUs granted in the nine-month period, 288,680 were awarded in connection with annual long term incentive stock compensation and 500,000 were awarded as a special retention RSU award.
At September 30, 2021, unrecognized compensation costs relating to RSUs amounted to $67.0 million which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.80 years.
Note 12. Segments
The Company's management reporting process measures the performance of its operating segments based on internal operating structure, which is subject to change from time to time. Accordingly, the Company operates two reportable segments for management reporting purposes as discussed below:
Banking - This segment specializes in providing financing services to small businesses nationwide in targeted industries and deposit-related services to small businesses, consumers and other customers nationwide. The primary source of revenue for this segment is net interest income and secondarily the origination and sale of government guaranteed loans.
Fintech - This segment is involved in making strategic investments into emerging financial technology companies. The primary sources of revenue for this segment are principally gains and losses on equity method and equity security investments and management fees. The Fintech segment is comprised of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries Live Oak Ventures and Canapi Advisors, and the investments held by those entities, as well as the Bank's investment in Apiture.

Nature of Operations
LOB is a financial holding company and a bank holding company headquartered in Wilmington, North Carolina incorporated under the laws of the state of North Carolina in December 2008. The Company conducts business operations primarily through its commercial bank subsidiary, Live Oak Banking Company (the “Bank”). The Bank was incorporated in February 2008 as a North Carolina-chartered commercial bank. The Bank specializes in providing lending and deposit related services to small businesses nationwide. The Bank identifies and extends lending to credit-worthy borrowers within both specified industries, also called verticals, through expertise within those industries, and more broadly to select borrowers outside of those industries. A significant portion of the loans originated by the Bank are guaranteed by the SBA under the 7(a) Loan Program and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s ("USDA") Rural Energy for America Program ("REAP"), Water and Environmental Program (“WEP”) and Business & Industry ("B&I") loan programs.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries are the Bank, Government Loan Solutions (“GLS”), Live Oak Grove, LLC (“Grove”), Live Oak Ventures, Inc. (“Live Oak Ventures”), and Canapi Advisors, LLC (“Canapi Advisors”).
The Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries are Live Oak Number One, Inc., Live Oak Clean Energy Financing LLC (“LOCEF”), and Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC. Live Oak Number One, Inc. holds properties foreclosed on by the Bank. LOCEF provides financing to entities for renewable energy applications and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank during the first quarter of 2019. Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiary, Jolley Asset Management, LLC (“JAM”), provide high-net-worth individuals and families with strategic wealth and investment management services.
GLS is a management and technology consulting firm that advises and offers solutions and services to participants in the government guaranteed lending sector. GLS primarily provides services in connection with the settlement, accounting, and securitization processes for government guaranteed loans, including loans originated under the SBA 7(a) loan programs and USDA guaranteed loans. The Grove provides Company employees and business visitors an on-site restaurant location. Live Oak Ventures’ purpose is investing in businesses that align with the Company's strategic initiative to be a leader in financial technology. Canapi Advisors provides investment advisory services to a series of funds (the “Canapi Funds”) focused on providing venture capital to new and emerging financial technology companies.
The Company generates revenue primarily from net interest income and secondarily through origination and sale of government guaranteed loans. Income from the retention of loans is comprised principally of interest income. The Company had historically elected to account for certain loans under the fair value option with interest reported in interest income and changes in fair value reported in the net (loss) gain on loans accounted for under the fair value option line item of the consolidated statements of income. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, the Company chose not to elect fair value for all retained participating interests arising from new government guaranteed loan sales. Income from the sale of loans is comprised of loan servicing revenue and revaluation of related servicing assets along with net gains on sales of loans. Offsetting these revenues are the cost of funding sources, provision for loan and lease credit losses, any costs related to foreclosed assets and other operating costs such as salaries and employee benefits, travel, professional services, advertising and marketing and tax expense. The Company also has generated gains and losses arising from its financial technology investments in its fintech segment, as discussed more fully later in this section entitled “Results of Segment Operations.”
Recent Developments
Indications of recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic are continuing to appear in the United States; however, the fallout continues to have a complex and significant adverse impact on certain areas of the economy, the banking industry and the Company, all of which are subject to a high degree of uncertainty. This uncertainty is magnified with the risk of a resurgence of the virus or new variants. While it is not possible to know the full universe or extent of these impacts as of the date of this filing, we are disclosing potentially material items of which we are currently aware.
38
Financial position and results of operations
Relating to our September 30, 2021 financial condition and results of operations, improving conditions around COVID-19 continued to have a positive impact on the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans and leases and net interest income while these same improving conditions were mitigated by current market fluctuations influencing loans carried at fair value, loan servicing asset revaluation and net gains on sales of loans, as discussed below in MD&A. With improving conditions, the ACL and resulting provision for loan and lease credit losses continue to slowly return to pre-pandemic levels relative to credit exposure. The Company continues to monitor pandemic-at-risk verticals, and is seeing a substantial number of borrowers showing signs of recovery by making regular payments in the absence of payment deferrals and payment subsidies provided by the SBA. Accordingly, total credit related reserves were also positively impacted by this continued improvement during the third quarter. Refer to the discussion of the ACL and loans at fair value in Notes 5 and 9, respectively, of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as well as further discussion below in MD&A. The net interest margin continued to be positively impacted by the continued recognition of Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) income as discussed more fully below in MD&A. Should economic conditions worsen, the Company could experience significant levels of provision in the ACL and negative fair value marks and record additional credit or market related loss expense. It is also possible that the Company’s asset quality measures could worsen at future measurement periods if there is a continued resurgence of COVID-19 cases or variants.
The income from gain on sale of loans in future periods could also be reduced due to COVID-19, the termination of pandemic response programs or other economic factors. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such impacts but anticipates that the breadth of the economic impact could impact gains in future periods.
Interest income could be further reduced due to COVID-19. In accordance with guidance from banking regulators, the Company has worked and continues to work with COVID-19 affected borrowers to help defer their payments, interest, and fees. In addition to regulatory relief on deferrals from banking regulators, payment relief was available from the SBA for certain loans guaranteed by that agency pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) and subsequently by the below discussed Economic Aid Act. While interest will still accrue to interest income through GAAP accounting, should eventual credit losses on these loans with deferred payments emerge, interest income accrued would need to be reversed. In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted. As of September 30, 2021, the Company carried $302 thousand in accrued interest on outstanding loans with deferrals made to COVID-19 affected borrowers. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact on future deferrals to COVID-19 borrowers, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact may affect our borrowers’ ability to repay in future periods.
Capital and liquidity
As of September 30, 2021, all of the Company’s capital ratios, and the Bank’s capital ratios, were in excess of all minimum regulatory requirements. While the Company believes that capital is sufficient to withstand a double-dip economic recession if brought about by a resurgence in COVID-19, reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses. The Company relies on cash on hand as well as dividends from the Bank to service any debt at the Company. If our capital deteriorates such that the Bank is unable to pay dividends to the Company for an extended period of time, the Company may not be able to service its debt.
The Company maintains access to multiple sources of liquidity. Wholesale funding markets have remained open to the Company, but rates for short-term funding can be volatile and the secondary market for guaranteed loans has shown reactionary and varying responses to the changing economic environment. If funding costs are elevated for an extended period of time, it could have an adverse effect on the Company’s net interest margin. If an extended recession causes large numbers of the Company’s deposit customers to withdraw their funds, the Company might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding.
The Federal Reserve created the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”) to help provide financing for the origination of PPP loans. The PPPLF extends loans to banks that have loaned money to small businesses under the PPP, discussed in more detail below. Amounts borrowed are non-recourse and have a 100% advance rate equal to the principal amount of PPP loans pledged as security. In addition, loans financed under the PPPLF have a neutral impact on regulatory leverage capital ratios. The maturity date of a borrowing under the PPPLF is equal to the maturity date of the PPP loan pledged to secure the borrowing and would be accelerated (i) if the underlying PPP loan goes into default and is transferred to the SBA to realize on the SBA guarantee or (ii) to the extent that any loan forgiveness reimbursement is received from the SBA. Borrowings under the PPPLF bear interest at a rate of 0.35%, and there are no fees paid by the Company. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $526.0 million from the PPPLF.
39
Lending operations and accommodations to borrowers
With the establishment of the PPP administered by the SBA, the Company implemented new loan programs and systems using its technology platform while participating in assisting its customers and other small businesses in need of resources through the program. PPP loans earn interest at 1% and currently have a two-year or five-year contractual term depending on the origination date. For the earlier loans with a two-year term there is an option to extend to five years if agreed upon by the borrower and lender. The Company continues to receive substantial levels of forgiveness for these loans. As of September 30, 2021, the Company carried 3,211 PPP loans on its balance sheet representing a book balance of $489.8 million, which includes $13.2 million in net deferred fees, expected to be amortized and recognized in interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. In comparison, the Company carried 6,580 PPP loans on its balance sheet with a book balance of $927.3 million at June 30, 2021. The Company recognized $10.9 million and $39.3 million of interest income in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, related to amortization of net PPP fees. Loans funded through the PPP are fully guaranteed by the SBA, subject to the terms and conditions of the program. Should those circumstances change, the Company could be required to record additional credit loss expense through earnings.
With the passage of the CARES Act on March 27, 2020, the SBA was making six months of principal and interest payments on all fully disbursed SBA 7(a) and SBA Express loans in regular servicing status that closed by September 25, 2020. In addition, with regulatory guidance to work with borrowers during this unprecedented situation, the Company has also mobilized to provide a payment deferral program when needed by customers that are adversely affected by the pandemic. Depending on the demonstrated need of the client, the Company was deferring either the full loan payment or the principal component of the loan payment for 60 or 90 days. In accordance with interagency guidance issued in March 2020, these short-term deferrals were not considered troubled debt restructurings. After 60 or 90 days, borrowers may apply for an additional deferral. In the absence of other intervening factors, such short-term modifications made on a good faith basis are not categorized as a troubled debt restructuring, nor are loans granted payment deferrals related to COVID-19 placed on non-accrual (provided the loans were not past due or on non-accrual status prior to the deferral). At September 30, 2021, and December 30, 2020, the Company estimated that as a percentage of total loans and leases at amortized cost, excluding PPP loans, 8% and 20%, respectively, of its loans were receiving the six months of payments from the SBA and that 0.5% and 11%, respectively, of its loans had a payment deferral in place. The decrease in loans on payment deferral was largely a product of the Economic Aid Act introduced late in 2020, as discussed below. The Company estimated that 8% of its loans and leases at amortized cost, excluding PPP loans, were receiving payments from the SBA and that 0.5% had a payment deferral in place as of October 31, 2021. On October 2, 2020, the SBA began approving PPP forgiveness applications and remitting forgiveness payments to PPP lenders for PPP borrowers. As of October 31, 2021, the Company has received approximately $1.90 billion in PPP loan forgiveness from approximately 12,600, or 85% of total PPP loans originated by count.
On December 27, 2020 the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act (the “Economic Aid Act”) was enacted which allows the SBA to make payments of up to $9,000 per month for up to six months of principal and interest payments on certain fully disbursed SBA 7(a) and SBA 504 loans in regular servicing status based upon the origination date. In addition, this legislation increased the 75% guarantee on many SBA 7(a) loans to 90%, among other things.
Credit
While some industries have experienced and continue to experience impacts as a result of COVID-19, the Company has $472.5 million in total unguaranteed exposure in six verticals considered by management to be “at-risk” of significant impact: hotels, educational services, wine and craft beverage, entertainment centers, fitness centers, and quick service restaurants, each comprising $127.5 million or 4.1%, $117.9 million or 3.8%, $97.8 million or 3.1%, $49.0 million or 1.6%, $41.3 million or 1.3%, and $39.0 million or 1.3% of total unguaranteed loans and leases (all at amortized cost, inclusive of loans carried at fair value) as of September 30, 2021, respectively. A substantial number of borrowers continue to show signs of recovery by making regular payments in the absence of payment deferrals and payment subsidies provided by the SBA. As of September 30, 2021 there are only 17 loans with an aggregate balance of $20.8 million in at-risk verticals still on payment deferral and 30 that continue to receive SBA payment subsidies with an aggregate balance of $53.8 million. While the third quarter reflected positive signs of emerging from at-risk status, management continues to closely monitor these vulnerable verticals for signs of weakness.
The Company continues to work with customers directly affected by COVID-19 and is prepared to offer short-term assistance in accordance with regulatory guidelines. As a result of the uncertain economic environment caused by COVID-19, the Company continues to engage in more frequent communication with borrowers in an effort to better understand their situation and the challenges faced as circumstances evolve, which the Company anticipates will enable it to respond proactively as needs and issues arise.

Results of Operations
Performance Summary
Three months ended September 30, 2021 compared with three months ended September 30, 2020
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company reported net income of $33.8 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, compared to net income of $33.8 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020. While net income was relatively the same for both periods, the primary changes are described in the following items:
Increasing net income:
|
• |
Increase in net interest income of $26.4 million, or 51.3%, predominately driven by significant growth in total loan and lease portfolios combined with lower costs of interest bearing deposits; |
|
• |
A decrease in the provision for loan and lease credit losses of $6.0 million, or 58.0%; |
|
• |
Increased net gains on sales of loans of $6.2 million, or 48.6%; and |
|
• |
Decreased income tax expense of $2.3 million primarily due to renewable energy tax credit investment activities. |
Decreasing net income:
|
• |
A net loss on the loan servicing asset revaluation of $5.9 million, increasing by $7.9 million, or 385.2%, compared to a net gain of $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2020; |
|
• |
A net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value option of $1.0 million, increasing by $4.4 million, or 130.3%, compared to a net gain of $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2020; |
|
• |
Decrease in equity security gains of $14.5 million. Gains in the third quarter of 2020 were principally comprised of $13.7 million associated with the Company’s investment in Greenlight Financial Technologies, Inc. (“Greenlight”); and |
|
• |
An increase in total noninterest expense of $12.8 million, or 30.0%, comprised principally of increased salaries and employee benefits of $4.0 million, travel expense of $1.6 million, professional services of $2.9 million and data processing of $1.9 million. |
Nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared with nine months ended September 30, 2020
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company reported a net income of $136.8 million, or $3.05 per diluted share, as compared to $30.0 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This increase in net income was largely due to the following items:
|
• |
Increase in net interest income of $86.7 million, or 65.5%, also predominately driven by significant growth in total loan and lease portfolios combined with lower costs of interest bearing deposits; |
|
• |
A decrease in the provision for loan and lease credit losses of $20.7 million, or 64.7%; |
|
• |
Increased net gains on sales of loans of $12.5 million, or 36.3%; |
|
• |
A net gain on loans accounted for under the fair value option of $4.3 million, increasing by $12.6 million, or 151.9%, compared to a net loss of $8.3 million for the first nine months of 2020; |
|
• |
Increase in equity security gains of $29.7 million. This increase is principally the result of a second quarter 2021 gain of $44.1 million associated with the Company’s investment in Greenlight. |
41
Key factors partially offsetting the increase in net income for the first nine months of 2021 were:
|
• |
An increase in total noninterest expense of $31.0 million, or 22.1%, comprised principally of increased salaries and employee benefits of $9.4 million, travel expense of $1.6 million, professional services of $6.7 million, data processing of $4.1 million, loan related expenses of $2.5 million, renewable energy tax credit investment impairment of $3.2 million and other expense of $3.4 million; and |
|
• |
Increased income tax expense of $20.8 million primarily due to the above discussed increase in net income. |
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income represents the difference between the income that the Company earns on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company’s net interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates that the Company earns or pays on them, respectively. Net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as “volume changes.” It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as “rate changes.” As a bank without a branch network, the Bank gathers deposits over the Internet and in the community in which it is headquartered. Due to the nature of a branchless bank and the relatively low overhead required for deposit gathering, the rates that the Bank offers are generally above the industry average.
Three months ended September 30, 2021 compared with three months ended September 30, 2020
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, net interest income increased $26.4 million, or 51.3%, to $77.7 million compared to $51.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was principally due to the significant growth in the loan and lease portfolios reflecting the Company's ongoing initiative to grow recurring revenue sources combined with lower costs of interest bearing deposits. Accordingly, average interest earning assets increased by $377.9 million, or 5.1%, to $7.74 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $7.36 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2020, while the yield on average interest earning assets increased 71 basis points to 4.76%. The cost of funds on interest bearing liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2021 decreased 47 basis points to 0.80%, and the average balance of interest bearing liabilities increased by $25.3 million, or 0.3%, over the same period in 2020. While average interest bearing liabilities were largely flat between periods there was increased levels of interest bearing deposits to support continued loan originations and growth. Largely offsetting the increase in interest bearing deposits was curtailment of sizable PPPLF borrowings as PPP loan forgiveness continues. As indicated in the rate/volume table below, increased interest earning asset volume and yields, outpaced the higher volume and greater levels of cost declines of interest bearing liabilities, resulting in increases to interest income of $17.7 million and decreases to interest expense of $8.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, net interest margin increased from 2.77% to 3.99%, respectively, due to significant loan portfolio growth and the maturity of longer term deposits which are repricing at lower rates.
Nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared with nine months ended September 30, 2020
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net interest income increased $86.7 million, or 65.5%, to $219.1 million compared to $132.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was principally due to the significant growth in the loan and lease portfolios reflecting the Company's ongoing strategy to grow recurring revenue sources combined with lower costs of interest bearing deposits. This increase over the prior year was further enhanced by the origination of $547.5 million in PPP loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, with a $25.6 million increase in interest income related to the amortization of net deferred fees combined with a 1% annualized interest rate. Accordingly, average interest earning assets increased by $1.59 billion, or 26.0%, to $7.69 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $6.10 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, while the yield on average interest earning assets increased 20 basis points to 4.68%. The cost of funds on interest bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 decreased 72 basis points to 0.89%, while the average balance of interest bearing liabilities increased by $1.45 billion, or 23.9%, over the same period in 2020. The increase in average interest bearing liabilities was largely driven by funding for significant loan originations and growth from the prior year. As indicated in the rate/volume table below, increased interest earning asset volume and yields outpaced the higher volume and greater levels of cost declines of interest bearing liabilities, resulting in increases to interest income of $63.6 million and decreases to interest expense of $23.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net interest margin increased from 2.89% to 3.81%, respectively, due primarily to recognition of PPP related income, which is being accelerated with forgiveness efforts, in combination with significant loan portfolio growth and the maturity of longer term deposits which are repricing at lower rates.

Average Balances and Yields. The following table presents information regarding average balances for assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amount of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing the income or expense by the average balances for assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented and annualizing that result. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The total column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, increases or decreases attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionally based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Provision for Loan and Lease Credit Losses
The provision for loan and lease credit losses represents the amount necessary to be charged against the current period’s earnings to maintain the ACL on loans and leases at a level that the Company believes is appropriate in relation to the estimated losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio.
Losses inherent in loan relationships are mitigated if a portion of the loan is guaranteed by the SBA or USDA. Typical SBA 7(a) and USDA guarantees range from 50% to 90% depending on loan size and type, which serve to reduce the risk profile of these loans. The Company believes that its focus on compliance with regulations and guidance from the SBA and USDA are key factors to managing this risk.
For the third quarter of 2021, there was a provision for loan and lease credit losses of $4.3 million compared to $10.3 million for the same period in 2020, a decrease in provision of $6.0 million. For the first nine months of 2021, there was a provision for loan and lease credit losses of $11.3 million compared to $32.0 million for the same period in 2020, a decrease in provision of $20.7 million. The decrease in provision for both periods was primarily the result of continued improvement in forecasts related to employment and default expectations combined with the effects of the below discussed performance metrics, partially offset by the impact of growth in the Company’s loan and lease portfolios.
Loans and leases held for investment at historical cost were $4.72 billion as of September 30, 2021, increasing by $529.2 million, or 12.6%, compared to September 30, 2020. Excluding PPP loans and net unearned fees on those loans, the balance in loans and leases held for investment at historical cost was $4.23 billion at September 30, 2021, an increase of $1.75 billion, or 70.8%, over September 30, 2020. This growth outside of PPP activity was fueled by robust loan originations.
45
Net charge-offs for loans and leases carried at historical cost were $2.5 million, or 0.21% of average quarterly loans and leases held for investment, carried at historical cost, on an annualized basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to net charge-offs of $10.1 million, or 1.03%, for the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net charge-offs totaled $3.9 million compared to $14.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of $10.8 million, or 73.4%. The decrease in net charge-offs for the three and nine months ended September 31, 2021 as compared to the same periods of 2020 was principally the result of a third quarter of 2020 reclassification of fifteen hotel loans from held for investment to held for sale totaling $81.2 million in net investment. This third quarter of 2020 reclassification resulted in a write down reflected in charge-offs of $9.8 million. Net charge-offs are a key element of historical experience in the Company's estimation of the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases.
In addition, nonperforming loans and leases not guaranteed by the SBA or USDA, excluding $6.3 million and $7.5 million accounted for under the fair value option at September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, totaled $20.5 million, which was 0.43% of the held for investment loan and lease portfolio carried at historical cost at September 30, 2021, compared to $20.2 million, or 0.48% of loans and leases held for investment at September 30, 2020. Nonperforming loans and leases carried at historical cost which are not guaranteed by the SBA or USDA were 0.48% and 0.81% of the historical cost portion of the held for investment loan and lease portfolio, excluding PPP loans, at September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income is principally comprised of net gains from the sale of SBA and USDA-guaranteed loans along with loan servicing revenue and related revaluation of the servicing asset. Revenue from the sale of loans depends upon the volume, maturity structure and rates of underlying loans as well as the pricing and availability of funds in the secondary markets prevailing in the period between completed loan funding and closing of sale. In addition, the loan servicing revaluation is significantly impacted by changes in market rates and other underlying assumptions such as prepayment speeds and default rates. Net gain (loss) on loans accounted for under the fair value option is also significantly impacted by changes in market rates, prepayment speeds and inherent credit risk. Other less common elements of noninterest income include less consistent gains and losses on investments.
The following table shows the components of noninterest income and the dollar and percentage changes for the periods presented.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, noninterest income decreased by $21.8 million, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease from the prior year is primarily the result of the aforementioned decrease in in equity security gains of $14.5 million associated with the Company’s $13.7 million gain in Greenlight during the third quarter of 2020, a higher net loss on the loan servicing asset of $7.9 million and a decrease in net gain on loans accounted for under the fair value option of $4.4 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, noninterest income increased by $51.2 million, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase from the prior year is primarily the result of increased net gains on sales of loans of $12.5 million, an increase in equity security gains of $29.7 million, principally the result of a second quarter 2021 gain of $44.1 million associated with the Company’s investment in Greenlight and an increased net gain on loans accounted for under the fair value option of $12.6 million. Both gains on loans accounted for under the fair value option and net gains on sales of loans were a product of improved market conditions in 2021.
The following table reflects loan and lease production, sales of guaranteed loans and the aggregate balance in guaranteed loans sold. These components are key drivers of the Company's noninterest income.

Changes in various components of noninterest income are discussed in more detail below.
Loan Servicing Revaluation: The Company revalues its serviced loan portfolio at least quarterly. The revaluation considers the amortization of the portfolio, current market conditions for loan sale premiums, and current prepayment speeds. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, loan servicing revaluation decreased $7.9 million, or 385.2%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, loan servicing revaluation decreased $3.4 million, or 80.1%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The lower servicing valuation for the quarter over quarter and year over year periods is principally due to the amortization of the guaranteed serviced loan portfolio combined with increased inventory levels in the market.
Net Gains on Sale of Loans: For the three months ended September 30, 2021, net gains on sales of loans increased $6.2 million, or 48.6%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the volume of guaranteed loans sold increased $87.2 million, or 76.0%, to $201.9 million from $114.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and the average net gain on guaranteed loan sales decreased from $110.2 thousand to $91.0 thousand, per million sold, in the third quarters of 2020 and 2021, respectively. The overall increase in loan sale volume in the third quarter of 2021 drove the increase in net gains on sales of loans over the third quarter of 2020, while the gain per million was reduced largely due to the mix of loans being sold and to a lesser extent lower market premiums arising from negative market conditions discussed above.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net gains on sales of loans increased $12.5 million, or 36.3%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the volume of guaranteed loans sold increased $37.5 million, or 8.7%, to $469.5 million from $432.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the average net gain on guaranteed loan sales increased from $77.2 thousand to $95.5 thousand, per million sold, in the first nine months of 2020 and 2021, respectively. With higher loan sale volume and higher premium levels in the secondary market in the first nine months of 2021 compared to the same period of 2020, the average net gain on guaranteed loan sales increased, largely as a result of improvement in market premium levels which were magnified by stimulus associated with the SBA program which removes the ongoing guarantee fee, typically paid by the purchaser, on loans originated under the Economic Aid Act. The magnitude of the increase in net gains on sale of loans was muted somewhat due the Company’s choice to not elect fair value for all retained participating interests arising from new government guaranteed loan sales beginning in the first quarter of 2021. Not electing fair value generally results in a larger discount, which will reduce the amount of gain recognized at the date of sale. This larger discount is subsequently accreted into interest income over the underlying loan’s remaining term using the effective interest method. Management made this change of election in alignment with its ongoing effort to reduce volatility and drive more predictable revenue. In accordance with accounting standards, any loans for which fair value was previously elected continue to be measured as such.
Net (Loss) Gain on Loans Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option: For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value option increased $4.4 million, or 130.3%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the net gain on loans accounted for under the fair value option increased $12.6 million, or 151.9%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The carrying amount of loans accounted for under the fair value option at September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $725.4 million ($27.4 million classified as held for sale and $698.0 million classified as held for investment) and $876.2 million ($30.4 million classified as held for sale and $845.7 million classified as held for investment), respectively, a decrease of $150.8 million, or 17.2%. The net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value option during third quarter of 2021 was largely due to negative market conditions discussed above while the net gain in the first nine months of 2021 was largely due to improving market conditions compared to COVID-19 pandemic economic impacts in the prior year.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense comprises all operating costs of the Company, such as employee related costs, travel, professional services, advertising and marketing expenses, exclusive of interest and income tax expense.

Total noninterest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, increased $12.8 million, or 30.0%, and $31.0 million, or 22.1%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase in noninterest expense for the comparable three and nine month periods was largely driven by various components, as discussed below.
Salaries and employee benefits: Total personnel expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased by $4.0 million, or 16.5%, and $9.4 million, or 11.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase in salaries and employee benefits for both periods was principally related to continued investment in human resources to support strategic and growth initiatives. Total full-time equivalent employees increased from 628 at September 30, 2020, to 755 at September 30, 2021. Salaries and employee benefits expense included $3.7 million and $12.8 million of stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to $3.3 million and $9.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. Expenses related to the employee stock purchase program, stock grants, stock option compensation and restricted stock expense are all considered stock-based compensation.
Travel expense: For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, travel expenses increased $1.6 million, or 627.6%, and $1.6 million, or 68.1%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. Travel expenses increased primarily to support the growth in loan origination volume and customer base as travel restrictions have continued to ease in recent months.
49
Professional services expense: For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, professional services expense increased $2.9 million, or 215.8%, and $6.7 million, or 144.5%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase compared to the prior periods was largely driven by an increase in legal fees related to the previously disclosed letter the Company received in December 2020 and the resulting putative class action filed against the Company and other parties in March 2021. See Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.
Data processing expense: Total data processing expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased by $1.9 million, or 61.8%, and $4.1 million, or 45.5%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase for both periods was principally due to enhanced investments in the Company’s internal software technology resources.
Loan related expenses: Total loan related expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased by $820 thousand, or 30.7%, and $2.5 million, or 32.9%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The nine month over nine month increase was principally due to heightened levels of SBA guaranty fees arising from the Company retaining more guaranteed loans.
Renewable energy tax credit investment impairment: For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $3.1 million in impairment charges related to a $3.9 million renewable energy tax credit investment that was fully funded during the first quarter of 2021. Investments of this type generate a return primarily through the realization of income tax credits and other benefits; accordingly, impairment of the investment amount is recognized in conjunction with the realization of related tax benefits. This investment generated a federal investment tax credit of $3.4 million which is included in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.
Other expense: For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, other expense increased $728 thousand, or 34.1%, and $3.4 million, or 60.6%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase over the first nine months of 2020 was primarily driven by a $1.2 million increase in charitable donations combined with $904 thousand of impairment expense on solar panels due to lower than expected energy production capability recognized in the first quarter of 2021. Also included in other expense is a $3.9 million accrual related to the settlement of a putative class action filed against the Company and other parties in March 2021 for which the Company entered into a final settlement agreement on October 12, 2021. See Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies for additional information. Largely offsetting this $3.9 million accrual in the third quarter of 2021 is a $3.7 million receivable related to an insurance recovery in regards to the same litigation.
Income Tax Expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, income tax expense decreased by $2.3 million, while the Company’s effective tax rates were 21.7% and 25.7%, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2020. The lower effective rate for the third quarter of 2021 is principally due to earlier discussed items related to renewable energy tax credit investments.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, income tax expense was $26.2 million compared to $5.4 million for the first nine months of 2020, and the Company’s effective tax rates were 16.0% and 15.3%, respectively. The effective rate for the first nine months of 2021 is principally due to the impact of renewable energy tax credit investments and vesting of approximately 576 thousand restricted stock unit awards with market price conditions, as the fair value of these awards exceeded the total compensation cost recognized by the Company for book purposes. The effective rate during the first nine months of 2020 was partially a result of a discrete, estimated income tax benefit of $3.7 million related to the enactment of the CARES Act on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act allows taxpayers to carryback certain net operating losses to each of the five taxable years preceding the taxable year of such losses. As a result, the Company was allowed to carryback its 2018 net operating loss which had been utilized and measured under the prior law using a 21% corporate income tax rate to pre-2018 taxable years during which the corporate income tax rate was 35%.

Banking
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, net income increased $15.1 million and $90.3 million, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. The increase for both periods was primarily the result of increased net interest income and lower levels of provision expense while the year to date period was also significantly increased due to higher levels of noninterest income.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, net interest income increased $26.7 million, or 52.0%, and $87.2 million, or 65.8%, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. See the analysis of net interest income included in the above section captioned “Net Interest Income and Margin” as it is predominantly related to the Banking segment.
See the analysis of provision for loan and lease credit losses included in the above section captioned “Provision for Loan and Lease Credit Losses” as it is entirely related to the Banking segment.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, noninterest income decreased $4.7 million and increased $21.6 million, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. The quarter over quarter decrease was largely comprised of an increase in the net loss on the loan servicing asset revaluation of $7.9 million, or 385.2% combined with a net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value increasing by $4.4 million, or 130.3% and partially offset by increased net gains on sales of loans of $6.2 million, or 48.6%. The increase over the first nine months of 2020 was principally comprised of increased net gains on loans accounted for under the fair value option increasing by $12.6 million, or 151.9% combined with an increase in net gains on sales of loans of $12.5 million, or 36.3% and partially offset by an increase in the net loss on the loan servicing asset revaluation of $3.4 million, or 80.1%. See the analysis of these categories of noninterest income included in the above section captioned “Noninterest Income” for additional discussion.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, noninterest expense increased $11.4 million, or 27.8%, and $25.9 million, or 19.5%, respectively, compared to same periods of 2020. See the analysis of these categories of noninterest expense included in the above section captioned “Noninterest Expense” for additional discussion.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, income tax expense increased $1.4 million, or 17.9%, and $13.4 million, or 231.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. See the above section captioned “Income Tax Expense.”
Fintech
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the net income decreased by $11.4 million and increased $23.2 million, respectively, compared to same periods of 2020. The quarter over quarter decrease was principally due to the earlier referenced $13.7 million Greenlight gain in the third quarter of 2020 while the increase over the first nine months of 2020 was principally the result of the aforementioned $44.1 million Greenlight gain recognized in the second quarter of 2021.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, noninterest income decreased $15.0 million and increased $29.5 million, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. This increase was largely due to the above mentioned Greenlight gains.
51
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, noninterest expense increased $110 thousand, or 9.9%, and decreased $616 thousand, or 15.5%, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. This decrease over the first nine months of 2020 was largely due to a reduction in compensation expense.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, income tax expense decreased $3.7 million, and increased $7.0 million, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. This increase in income tax expense was principally driven by the significant changes in net income before taxes arising from the above discussed gains arising from the Company’s investment in Greenlight during the third quarter of 2020 and second quarter of 2021.
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
September 30, 2021 vs. December 31, 2020
Total assets at September 30, 2021 were $8.14 billion, an increase of $265.0 million, or 3.4%, compared to total assets of $7.87 billion at December 31, 2020. The growth in total assets was principally driven by the following:
|
• |
Growth in total loans and leases held for investment and held for sale of $141.0 million resulting from strong origination activity in the first nine months of 2021. Total originations during the first nine months of 2021 were $3.40 billion, comprised of $2.85 billion in loans and leases exclusive of PPP and an additional $547.5 million in PPP loans; and |
|
• |
Total investment securities increased $111.3 million during the first nine months of 2021, from $750.1 million at December 31, 2020, to $861.4 million at September 30, 2021, an increase of 14.8%. The Company increased its investment securities position during the first nine months of 2021 largely as a part of its annual investment asset-liability planning. At September 30, 2021, the investment portfolio was comprised of U.S. government agencies, U.S. government-sponsored entity mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds and other debt securities. |
Cash and cash equivalents, comprised of cash and due from banks and federal funds sold, was $347.0 million at September 30, 2021, an increase of $28.7 million, or 9.0%, compared to $318.3 million at December 31, 2020. This increase reflects liquidity planning through increased levels of deposits for funding expected loan and lease originations.
Loans and leases held for sale decreased $132.7 million, or 11.3%, during the first nine months of 2021, from $1.18 billion at December 31, 2020, to $1.04 billion at September 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of strong loan sales in the first nine months of 2021 combined with higher levels of loans being retained as held for investment.
Loans and leases held for investment increased $273.7 million, or 5.3%, during the first nine months of 2021, from $5.14 billion at December 31, 2020, to $5.42 billion at September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily the result of the above-mentioned loan originations in 2021 combined with increased levels of loans retained as held for investment. All PPP loans are classified as held for investment.
Total deposits were $6.82 billion at September 30, 2021, an increase of $1.10 billion, or 19.3%, from $5.71 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase in deposits was largely driven by significant loan origination efforts during the first nine months of 2021.
Borrowings decreased to $575.0 million at September 30, 2021 from $1.54 billion at December 31, 2020. This decrease was related principally to net curtailments of borrowings through the PPPLF in the first nine months of 2021 as PPP loan forgiveness outpaced new PPPLF advances. These PPPLF borrowings are used to help fund PPP loans.
Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2021 was $689.4 million as compared to $567.9 million at December 31, 2020. The book value per share was $15.89 at September 30, 2021 compared to $13.38 at December 31, 2020. Average equity to average assets was 7.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to 8.1% for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in shareholders’ equity for the first nine months of 2021 was principally the result of net income of $136.8 million and stock-based compensation expense of $12.8 million, partially offset by other comprehensive loss of $13.4 million and $17.5 million in cash paid in lieu of stock for employee tax obligations in settlement of vested stock grants.

Asset Quality
Management considers asset quality to be of primary importance. A formal loan review function, independent of loan origination, is used to identify and monitor problem loans. This function reports directly to the Audit & Risk Committee of the Board of Directors.
Nonperforming Assets
The Bank places loans and leases on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due as to principal or interest payments, or prior to that if management has determined based upon current information available to them that the timely collection of principal or interest is not probable. When a loan or lease is placed on nonaccrual status, any interest previously accrued as income but not actually collected is reversed and recorded as a reduction of loan or lease interest and fee income. Typically, collections of interest and principal received on a nonaccrual loan or lease are applied to the outstanding principal as determined at the time of collection of the loan or lease.
Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) occur when, because of economic or legal reasons pertaining to the debtor’s financial difficulties, debtors are granted concessions that would not otherwise be considered. Such concessions would include, but are not limited to, the transfer of assets or the issuance of equity interests by the debtor to satisfy all or part of the debt, modification of the terms of debt or the substitution or addition of debtor(s).
Nonperforming assets and TDRs, excluding loans measured at fair value, at September 30, 2021 were $93.1 million, which represented a $10.6 million, or 12.8%, increase from December 31, 2020. These nonperforming assets, at September 30, 2021 were comprised of $49.3 million in nonaccrual loans and leases and $883 thousand in foreclosed assets. Of the $93.1 million of nonperforming assets and TDRs, $50.0 million carried a government guarantee, leaving an unguaranteed exposure of $43.1 million in total nonperforming assets and TDRs at September 30, 2021. This represents an increase of $3.8 million, or 9.6%, from an unguaranteed exposure of $39.3 million at December 31, 2020.

Total nonperforming assets and TDRs, including loans measured at fair value, at September 30, 2021 were $173.1 million, which represented a $20.0 million, or 13.0%, increase from December 31, 2020. These nonperforming assets, at September 30, 2021 were comprised of $96.5 million in nonaccrual loans and leases and $883 thousand in foreclosed assets. Of the $173.1 million of nonperforming assets and TDRs, $107.6 million carried a government guarantee, leaving an unguaranteed exposure of $65.5 million in total nonperforming assets and TDRs at September 30, 2021. This represents an increase of $10.0 million, or 18.1%, from an unguaranteed exposure of $55.5 million at December 31, 2020.
See the below discussion related to the change in potential problem and impaired loans and leases for management’s overall observations regarding growth in total nonperforming loans and leases.
As a percentage of the Bank’s total capital, nonperforming loans and leases, excluding loans measured at fair value, represented 7.4% at September 30, 2021, compared to 8.8% at December 31, 2020. Adjusting the ratio to include only the unguaranteed portion of nonperforming loans and leases at historical cost to reflect management’s belief that the greater magnitude of risk resides in this portion, the ratios at both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were 3.1% and 3.8%, respectively.
54
As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, potential problem (also referred to as criticized) and classified loans and leases, excluding loans measured at fair value, totaled $387.5 million and $311.4 million, respectively. The following is a discussion of these loans and leases. Risk Grades 5 through 8 represent the spectrum of criticized and classified loans and leases. For a complete description of the risk grading system, see Note 5. Loans and Leases Held for Investment and Credit Quality in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K. At September 30, 2021, the portion of criticized and classified loans and leases guaranteed by the SBA or USDA totaled $192.3 million resulting in unguaranteed exposure risk of $195.3 million, or 8.1% of total held for investment unguaranteed exposure carried at historical cost. This compares to the December 31, 2020 portion of criticized and classified loans and leases guaranteed by the SBA or USDA which totaled $168.9 million resulting in unguaranteed exposure risk of $142.5 million, or 8.2% of total held for investment unguaranteed exposure carried at historical cost. As of September 30, 2021, loans and leases carried at historical cost within the following verticals comprise the largest portion of the total potential problem and classified loans and leases: Wine and Craft Beverage at 18.6%, Educational Services at 15.7%, Entertainment Centers at 11.5%, Hotels at 11.2%, Healthcare at 7.7%, Fitness Centers at 5.2%, Self Storage at 4.6%, and Agriculture at 4.6%. As of December 31, 2020, loans and leases carried at historical cost within the following verticals comprise the largest portion of the total potential problem and classified loans and leases: Educational Services at 15.3%, Wine and Craft Beverage at 14.3%, Hotels at 13.6%, Entertainment Centers at 12.5%, Healthcare at 10.3%, Fitness Centers at 7.2%, Self Storage at 6.4% and Veterinary at 4.5%. Other than Hotels which are a part of the Company’s Specialty Lending division, all of the above listed verticals are within the Company’s Small Business Banking division. The majority of the $76.1 million first nine months of 2021 increase in potential problem and classified loans and leases was comprised of borrowers largely concentrated in the Company’s more mature verticals. Furthermore, the Company believes that its underwriting and credit quality standards have remained high with an emphasis on new production in pandemic resilient verticals and increased monitoring of existing loans in pandemic susceptible verticals as the impacts of COVID-19 continue to evolve.
Loans and leases that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls are generally not individually evaluated for the purpose of estimating the allowance for credit losses. The Bank generally considers an “insignificant period of time” from payment delays to be a period of 90 days or less, unless the borrower was not past due at the time of a modification as a part of a COVID-19 assistance program. The Bank would consider a modification for a customer experiencing what is expected to be a short-term event that has temporarily impacted cash flow. This could be due, among other reasons, to illness, weather, impact from a one-time expense, slower than expected start-up, construction issues or other short-term issues. Credit personnel will review the request to determine if the customer is stressed and how the event has impacted the ability of the customer to repay the loan or lease long term. At September 30, 2021, the Company had $11.4 million in modified unguaranteed loans and leases for borrowers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These modifications were primarily short-term payment deferrals generally no more than six-months in duration and accordingly are not considered troubled debt restructurings. As of October 31, 2021, the Company’s modified unguaranteed loans and leases for borrowers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic was approximately $11.5 million.
Management endeavors to be proactive in its approach to identify and resolve problem loans and leases and is focused on working with the borrowers and guarantors of these loans and leases to provide loan and lease modifications when warranted. Management implements a proactive approach to identifying and classifying loans and leases as special mention (also referred to as criticized), Risk Grade 5. At September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, Risk Grade 5 loans and leases, excluding loans measured at fair value, totaled $301.4 million and $237.5 million, respectively. The increase in Risk Grade 5 loans and leases, exclusive of loans measured at fair value, during the nine months of 2021 was principally confined to six verticals: Wine and Craft Beverage ($22.8 million or 42.3%), Agriculture ($12.2 million or 22.7%), Educational Services ($12.2 million or 22.7%), Independent Pharmacies ($6.2 million or 11.4%), Hotels ($4.2 million or 7.8%) and Asset Based ($2.7 million or 5.1%). Partially offsetting the above increases were declines in Risk Grade 5 loans principally concentrated in three verticals: Senior Care ($5.1 million or 9.4%), Sponsor Finance ($3.0 million or 5.5%) and Fitness Centers ($2.8 million or 5.3%). Other than Hotels, Asset Based and Sponsor Finance, which are a part of the Company’s Specialty Lending division, all of the above listed verticals are within the Company’s Small Business Banking division. Lower levels of Risk Grade 5 loans in Senior Care, Sponsor Finance and Fitness Centers were principally due to two previous Risk Grade 5 relationships continuing to experience stress and being downgraded to Risk Grade 6 during the first quarter.
55
At September 30, 2021, approximately 99.1% of loans and leases classified as Risk Grade 5 are performing with only one relationship having payments past due more than 30 days. While the level of nonperforming assets fluctuates in response to changing economic and market conditions, in light of the relative size and composition of the loan and lease portfolio and management’s degree of success in resolving problem assets, management believes that a proactive approach to early identification and intervention is critical to successfully managing a small business loan portfolio. In conjunction with this, management believes that volumes of delinquencies may not be an accurate depiction of the borrower’s repayment abilities under the current pandemic induced circumstances due to payments being made by the SBA on behalf of borrowers with loans under its programs. As government payment assistance began to expire toward the end of 2020, borrowers with continuing difficulties arising from the pandemic were provided additional relief through payment deferrals. Management monitors these borrowers closely and has observed financial conditions continuing to improve. Management has also noted that most loans with expired government assistance have been able to resume making regular payments in the first nine months of 2021.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Leases
During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, management updated the Company’s policy for estimating expected credit losses on certain relationships that would otherwise meet the criteria for individual evaluation. Relationships with unguaranteed exposure of less than $250 thousand are now collectively evaluated using an average of loss rates applied to individually evaluated relationships with unguaranteed exposure between $250 thousand and $1.0 million. See Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K for further description of the methodologies used to estimate the allowance for credit losses.
The ACL of $52.3 million at December 31, 2020, increased by $7.4 million, or 14.1%, to $59.7 million at September 30, 2021. The ACL as a percentage of loans and leases held for investment at historical cost amounted to 1.3% and 1.2% at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Excluding PPP loans and related reserves, the ACL as a percentage of loans and leases held for investment at historical cost amounted to 1.4% and 1.8% at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The increase in the ACL during the first nine months of 2021 was primarily due to impact of growth in loan and lease originations somewhat mitigated by the effects of improved forecasts related to employment and default expectations as the economic outlook has continued to improve, as addressed more fully in the above section captioned “Provision for Loan and Lease Credit Losses” in “Results of Operations.”
Actual past due held for investment loans and leases, inclusive of loans measured at fair value, have decreased by $20.8 million since December 31, 2020. Total loans and leases 90 or more days past due decreased $12.6 million, or 20.4%, compared to December 31, 2020. The decrease was comprised of a $13.7 million decrease in unguaranteed combined with a $1.0 million increase in the guaranteed portions of past due loans compared to December 31, 2020. At September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, total held for investment unguaranteed loans and leases past due as a percentage of total held for investment unguaranteed loans and leases, inclusive of loans measured at fair value, was 0.5% and 1.1%, respectively. Total unguaranteed loans and leases past due were comprised of $11.4 million carried at historical cost, a decrease of $11.6 million, and $5.0 million measured at fair value, a decrease of $1.3 million, as of September 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020. Management continues to actively monitor and work to improve asset quality. Management believes the ACL of $59.7 million at September 30, 2021 is appropriate in light of the risk inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. Management’s judgments are based on numerous assumptions about current and expected events that it believes to be reasonable, but which may or may not be valid, including but not limited to factors related to the above mentioned SBA delinquency effect and pandemic-susceptible verticals. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that management’s ongoing evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio in light of changing economic conditions and other relevant circumstances will not require significant future additions to the ACL, thus adversely affecting the Company’s operating results. Additional information on the ACL is presented in Note 5. Loans and Leases Held for Investment and Credit Quality of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Liquidity Management
Liquidity management refers to the ability to meet day-to-day cash flow requirements based primarily on activity in loan and deposit accounts of the Company’s customers. Liquidity is immediately available from four major sources: (a) cash on hand and on deposit at other banks; (b) the outstanding balance of federal funds sold; (c) the market value of unpledged investment securities; and (d) availability under lines of credit. At September 30, 2021, the total amount of these four items was $3.30 billion, or 40.6% of total assets, an increase of $247.7 million from $3.06 billion, or 38.8% of total assets, at December 31, 2020.
56
Loans and other assets are funded by loan sales, wholesale deposits, core deposits and PPPLF borrowings. To date, an increasing retail deposit base and an increased long term wholesale deposit base along with PPPLF borrowings have been adequate to meet loan obligations while maintaining the desired level of immediate liquidity. Additionally, the investment securities portfolio is available for both immediate and secondary liquidity purposes.
At September 30, 2021, none of the investment securities portfolio was pledged to secure public deposits or pledged to retail repurchase agreements, leaving $858.9 million available to pledge as collateral.
Contractual Obligations
The following table presents the Company’s significant fixed and determinable contractual obligations by payment date as of September 30, 2021. The payment amounts represent those amounts contractually due to the recipient. The table excludes liabilities recorded where management cannot reasonably estimate the timing of any payments that may be required in connection with these liabilities.

As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company had unfunded commitments to provide capital contributions for on-balance sheet investments in the amount of $11.0 million and $15.8 million, respectively.
Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity
One of the primary objectives of asset/liability management is to maximize the net interest margin while minimizing the earnings risk associated with changes in interest rates. One method used to manage interest rate sensitivity is to measure, over various time periods, the interest rate sensitivity positions, or gaps. As of September 30, 2021, the balance sheet’s total cumulative gap position was asset-sensitive at 4.0%.
The interest rate gap method, however, addresses only the magnitude of asset and liability repricing timing differences as of the report date and does not address earnings, market value, changes in account behaviors based on the interest rate environment, nor growth. Therefore, management also uses an earnings simulation model to prepare, on a regular basis, earnings projections based on a range of interest rate scenarios to measure interest rate risk. As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s interest rate risk profile under the earnings simulation model method remained asset-sensitive. An asset-sensitive position means that net interest income will generally move in the same direction as interest rates. For instance, if interest rates increase, net interest income can be expected to increase, and if interest rates decrease, net interest income can be expected to decrease. The Company attempts to mitigate interest rate risk by match funding assets and liabilities with similar rate instruments. The quarterly revaluation adjustment to the servicing asset, however, adjusts in an opposite direction to interest rate changes. Asset/liability sensitivity is primarily derived from the prime-based loans that adjust as the prime interest rate changes, rates on cash accounts that adjusts as the federal funds rate changes and the longer duration of indeterminate term deposits.
Capital
The maintenance of appropriate levels of capital is a management priority and is monitored on a regular basis. The Company’s principal goals related to the maintenance of capital are the following: to provide adequate capital to support the Company’s risk profile consistent with the risk appetite approved by the Board of Directors; to provide financial flexibility to support future growth and client needs; comply with relevant laws, regulations, and supervisory guidance; to achieve optimal ratings for the Company and its subsidiaries; and to provide a competitive return to shareholders. Management regularly monitors the capital position of the Company on both a consolidated and bank level basis. In this regard, management’s goal is to maintain capital at levels that are in excess of the regulatory “well capitalized” levels. Risk-based capital ratios, which include Tier 1 Capital, Total Capital and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, are calculated based on regulatory guidance related to the measurement of capital and risk-weighted assets.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances, results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Accounting policies, as described in detail in the Notes to the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, are an integral part of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. A thorough understanding of these accounting policies is essential when reviewing the Company’s reported results of operations and financial position. Management believes that the critical accounting policies and estimates listed below require the Company to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain.
|
• |
Determination of the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases; |
|
• |
Valuation of loans accounted for under the fair value option; |
|
• |
Valuation of servicing assets; |
|
• |
Valuation of equity security investments where no readily available market price exists; |
|
• |
Consideration of significant influence for certain relationships where we have equity interests; |
|
• |
Income taxes; |
58
|
• |
Restricted stock unit awards with market price conditions; |
|
• |
Valuation of foreclosed assets; and |
|
• |
Business combination and goodwill. |
Changes in these estimates, that are likely to occur from period to period, or the use of different estimates that the Company could have reasonably used in the current period, would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Management considers interest rate risk the most significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates. Consistency of net interest income is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk.
The Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which includes senior management representatives and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk. See “Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity” in Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for further discussion.
The objective of asset/liability management is the maximization of net interest income within the Company’s risk guidelines. This objective is accomplished through management of the balance sheet composition, maturities, liquidity, and interest rate risk exposures arising from changing economic conditions, interest rates and customer preferences.
To identify and manage its interest rate risk, the Company employs an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates. The model is based on contractual cash flows and repricing characteristics and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and liabilities. The model also includes management projections for activity levels in each of the product lines offered by the Bank. Assumptions are inherently uncertain, and the measurement of net interest income or the impact of rate fluctuations on net interest income cannot be precisely predicted. Actual results may differ materially from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of September 30, 2021, the last day of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2021, in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to management (including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company converted its core deposit system to a new platform. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company migrated its human capital, accounting and financial management systems to a new platform. As a result of these implementations, the Company modified existing internal controls and implemented new processes and controls related to these new platforms. The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate internal controls over financial reporting as it relates to these new systems.
Except as related to the implementation of the new systems, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of operations, the Company is at times involved in legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, as of September 30, 2021, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their property is the subject. In addition, the Company is not aware of any threatened litigation, unasserted claims or assessments that could have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results or financial condition.
On March 12, 2021, a purported class action was filed against the Company in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, Joseph McAlear, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. et al. The complaint alleges the existence of an agreement between the Company, nCino, Inc. and Apiture, LLC in which those companies purportedly sought to restrain the mobility of employees in violation of antitrust laws by agreeing not to solicit or hire each other’s employees. The complaint alleges violations of Section 1 of the federal Sherman Act (15 U.S.C. § 1) and violations of Sections 75-1 and 75-2 of the North Carolina General Statutes. The plaintiff seeks monetary damages, including treble damages, entitlement to restitution, disgorgement, attorneys’ fees, and pre- and post-judgment interest. On October 12, 2021, the Company reached an agreement to settle the case with a proposed class of all persons (with certain exclusions) employed by the Company or its wholly-owned subsidiary, Live Oak Banking Company, Apiture, Inc. or nCino, Inc. in North Carolina at any time from January 27, 2017, through March 31, 2021. In the agreement, the Company agreed to pay $3.9 million. On October 13, 2021, the plaintiff filed a motion for preliminary approval of the settlement, and that motion remains pending before the court.

Exhibit 10.1
LIVE OAK BANCSHARES, INC.
2015 OMNIBUS STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT is made and entered into effective as of May 11, 2021 (the “Date of Grant”), by and between LIVE OAK BANCSHARES, INC., a North Carolina corporation (the “Company”), and [NAME] (the “Grantee”). This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions associated with the Company’s award to Grantee of restricted stock units payable as described below in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s 2015 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan will have the meanings ascribed to them under the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and Grantee’s continued provision of valuable services as a director of the Company, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
1.Grant of Units. Effective as of the Date of Grant, the Company grants the Grantee [####] Restricted Stock Units (the “Units”) subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan. Each Unit is subject to settlement into one share of Common Stock (a “Share”) that will be delivered to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement when and if such Unit becomes vested in accordance with this Agreement.
2.Vesting. The Units are unvested when granted and will vest May 1, 2022, subject to Grantee’s provision of Continuous Service to the Company through such date. In addition, to the extent not previously forfeited, all unvested Units will vest immediately upon: (a) the consummation of a Corporate Transaction provided that Grantee provides Continuous Service to the Company through the date of such Corporate Transaction; (b) the termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of Grantee’s death; or (c) the termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of Grantee’s Disability.
3.Effect of Termination of Continuous Service. Except as provided in Section 2 in connection with the termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of Grantee’s death or Disability, in the event of the termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service, all Units that are not vested will be immediately, automatically, and without consideration forfeited.
4.Delivery of Shares to Settle Units. When Units become vested as provided in Section 3, the vested Units will be settled by delivering to Grantee the number of Shares equal to the number of vested Units, subject to the following provisions.
(a)Delivery of the Shares will be made as soon as practicable after the date on which the Units vest, provided that the Company may provide for a reasonable delay in the delivery of the Shares to address tax and other administrative matters, and provided further that delivery of the Shares will occur no later than two and one-half months following the conclusion of the year in which the vesting occurs.
(b)Subject to the conditions described herein, as soon as practicable after the date on which the Units vest, the Company will, at its election, either: (i) issue a certificate representing the Shares deliverable pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) not issue any certificate representing the Shares deliverable pursuant to this Agreement and instead document the Grantee’s interest in the Shares by registering such Shares with the Company’s transfer agent (or another custodian selected by the Company) in bookentry form in the Grantee’s name.
(c)No Shares will be issued pursuant to this Agreement unless and until all then-applicable requirements imposed by U.S., foreign, and state securities and other laws, rules and regulations and by any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and by any exchanges upon which the Shares may be listed, have been fully met, and the Company may condition the issuance of Shares pursuant to this Agreement on the Grantee’s taking any reasonable action to meet those requirements. The Company may impose such conditions on any Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under the requirements of any exchange upon which shares of the same class are then listed, and under any blue sky or other securities laws applicable to those shares.
5.Rights as a Shareholder. The Units represent a right to payment from the Company if the conditions of the Agreement are met and do not give the Grantee ownership of any Common Stock prior to delivery as provided in Section 4. Grantee will not have any rights and/or privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Units prior to such delivery, but Grantee will have all rights associated with the ownership of the Shares upon such delivery.
6.Non-Transferability of the Units. The Units and the right to payment under this Agreement are not transferable, and may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of except by the laws of descent or distribution, or as otherwise provided by the Plan. Any purported transfer of the Units or the right to payment under this Agreement not in compliance with the preceding sentence is null and void and will not be given effect.
7.Tax Consequences. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee understands the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of the award of the Units and the provisions of this Agreement. Grantee is relying solely on the advice of Grantee’s own tax advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents in connection with such tax consequences. Grantee understands that Grantee (and not the Company nor any Related Entity) will be responsible for Grantee’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of the granting, vesting, and/or settlement of the Units (or otherwise in connection with this Agreement).
8.Withholding Obligations. As a condition to delivery of the Shares, the Grantee hereby authorizes the Company to withhold from the Shares deliverable under this Agreement a number of Shares with a Fair Market Value (measured as of the date tax withholding obligations are to be determined) equal to the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or a Related Entity, if any. In the event that the Administrator determines in its discretion that such withholding of Shares is not permitted pursuant to the Applicable Laws, the rules and regulations of any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the Company, or the rules of any exchanges upon which the Shares may be listed, then the Administrator may, in its
discretion, make alternative arrangements for satisfying the Company’s (or a Related Entity’s) withholding obligations, utilizing any method permitted by the Plan, including but not limited to requiring Grantee to tender a cash payment or withholding from salary or other compensation payable to Grantee.
9.Application of Section 409A of the Code. The parties intend that the delivery of Shares in respect of the Units provided under this Agreement satisfies, to the greatest extent possible, the exemption from the application of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively, “Section 409A”) provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (or any other applicable exemption), and this Agreement will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions. To the extent not so exempt, the delivery of Shares in respect of the Units provided under this Agreement will be conducted, and this Agreement will be construed, in a manner that complies with Section 409A and is consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A. The parties further intend that each installment of any payments provided for in this Agreement is a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A. To the extent that (a) one or more of the payments received or to be received by Grantee pursuant to this Agreement would constitute deferred compensation subject to the requirements of Section 409A, and (b) Grantee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, then solely to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of any additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A, the commencement of any payments under this Agreement will be deferred until the date that is six months following the Grantee’s termination of Continuous Service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Grantee) and will instead be paid on the date that immediately follows the end of such six-month period (or death) or as soon as administratively practicable within thirty (30) days thereafter. The Company makes no representations to Grantee regarding the compliance of this Agreement or the Units with Section 409A, and Grantee is solely responsible for the payment of any taxes or penalties arising under Section 409A(a)(1), or any state law of similar effect, with respect to the grant or vesting of the Units or the delivery of the Shares hereunder.
10.Adjustments. All references to the number of Units will be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, or other change in capitalization that may be made by the Company after the date of this Agreement, as provided in Section 13 of the Plan.
11.Electronic Delivery. Grantee hereby consents to receive documents related to the Units and any other Awards granted under the Plan by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company, and such consent shall remain in effect throughout until withdrawn in writing by Grantee.
12.Data Privacy. Grantee acknowledges that the Company holds certain personal information about him/her, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, details of the Units and any other entitlement to Shares awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested or unvested. Grantee consents to the collection, use and transfer (including but not limited to transfers to parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan), in electronic or other form, of such personal data for the purpose of implementing, administering, and managing Grantee’s participation in the Plan.
13.Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of Grantee and Grantee’s heirs, executors, and personal representatives, and the Company and its successors and assigns.
14.Multiple Originals. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement. Facsimile or PDF reproductions of original signatures will be deemed binding for the purpose of the execution of this Agreement.
15.Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed given when delivered personally, one day after deposit with a recognized international delivery service (such as FedEx), or three days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, certified or registered, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid, in each case addressed to the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth at the end of this Agreement or such other address as a party may designate by notifying the other in writing.
16.Choice of Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without giving effect to the choice of law rules of any jurisdiction. The parties agree that any litigation arising out of or related to the Units or this Agreement will be brought exclusively in any state or federal court in New Hanover County, North Carolina. Each party (i) consents to the personal jurisdiction of said courts, (ii) waives any venue or inconvenient forum defense to any proceeding maintained in such courts, and (iii) agrees not to bring any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court.
17.Modification of Agreement; Waiver. This Agreement may be modified, amended, suspended, or terminated, and any terms, representations or conditions may be waived, but only by a written instrument signed by each of the parties hereto, except as otherwise provided in the Plan. No waiver hereunder will constitute a waiver with respect to any subsequent occurrence or other transaction hereunder or of any other provision hereof.
18.Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, then the remaining provisions will nevertheless be binding and enforceable.
19.Entire Agreement. This Agreement, along with the Plan, constitutes and embodies the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no other agreements or understandings, written or oral, in effect between the parties hereto relating to the matters addressed herein.
20.Grantee’s Acknowledgements. Grantee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Company’s prospectus covering the Shares issued pursuant to the Plan (the “Prospectus”). Grantee has read and understands the terms of this Agreement, the Plan, and the Prospectus. The Units are subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of this Agreement, and are further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the
Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.
[SIGNATURE PAGE FOLLOWS]

Exhibit 10.2
LIVE OAK BANCSHARES, INC.
2015 OMNIBUS STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT is made and entered into effective as of August 10, 2021 (the “Date of Grant”), by and between LIVE OAK BANCSHARES, INC., a North Carolina corporation (the “Company”), and William c. losch, III (the “Grantee”). This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions associated with the Company’s award to Grantee of restricted stock units payable as described below in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s 2015 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan will have the meanings ascribed to them under the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and Grantee’s continued provision of valuable services as an employee of the Company, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
1.Grant of Units. Effective as of the Date of Grant, the Company grants the Grantee 210,000 Restricted Stock Units (the “Units”) subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan. Each Unit is subject to settlement into one share of Common Stock (a “Share”) that will be delivered to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement when and if such Unit becomes vested in accordance with this Agreement.
2.Condition to Grant of Units. This award of Units is conditioned upon Grantee’s electronic acceptance of this Agreement through the online portal established by the Company’s equity plan administrator (i.e., Fidelity) within thirty (30) days of the Date of Grant (the “Acceptance Period”). In the event Grantee fails to accept this Agreement through such online portal within the Acceptance Period, then this Agreement is void and the Units will not be issued.
3.Vesting. The Units are unvested when granted and will vest as described on Exhibit A, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
4.Effect of Termination of Continuous Service. In the event of the termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service, all Units that are not vested will be immediately and automatically forfeited except as expressly provided on Exhibit A.
5.Delivery of Shares to Settle Units. When Units become vested as provided in Section 3, the vested Units will be settled by delivering to Grantee the number of Shares equal to the number of vested Units, subject to the following provisions.
(a)Delivery of the Shares will be made as soon as practicable after the date on which the Units vest, provided that the Company may provide for a reasonable delay in the delivery of the Shares to address tax and other administrative matters, and provided further that delivery of the Shares will occur no later than two and one-half months following the conclusion of the year in which the vesting occurs.
(b)Subject to the conditions described herein, as soon as practicable after the date on which the Units vest, the Company will, at its election, either: (i) issue a certificate representing the Shares deliverable pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) not issue any certificate representing the Shares deliverable pursuant to this Agreement and instead document the Grantee’s interest in the Shares by registering such Shares with the Company’s transfer agent (or another custodian selected by the Company) in bookentry form in the Grantee’s name.
(c)No Shares will be issued pursuant to this Agreement unless and until all then-applicable requirements imposed by U.S., foreign, and state securities and other laws, rules and regulations and by any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and by any exchanges upon which the Shares may be listed, have been fully met, and the Company may condition the issuance of Shares pursuant to this Agreement on the Grantee’s taking any reasonable action to meet those requirements. The Company may impose such conditions on any Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under the requirements of any exchange upon which shares of the same class are then listed, and under any blue sky or other securities laws applicable to those shares.
6.Rights as a Shareholder. The Units represent a right to payment from the Company if the conditions of the Agreement are met and do not give the Grantee ownership of any Common Stock prior to delivery as provided in Section 5. Grantee will not have any rights and/or privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Units prior to such delivery, but Grantee will have all rights associated with the ownership of the Shares upon such delivery.
7.Non-Transferability of the Units. The Units and the right to payment under this Agreement are not transferable, and may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of except by the laws of descent or distribution, or as otherwise provided by the Plan. Any purported transfer of the Units or the right to payment under this Agreement not in compliance with the preceding sentence is null and void and will not be given effect.
8.Tax Consequences. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee understands the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of the award of the Units and the provisions of this Agreement. Grantee is relying solely on the advice of Grantee’s own tax advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents in connection with such tax consequences. Grantee understands that Grantee (and not the Company nor any Related Entity) will be responsible for Grantee’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of the granting, vesting, and/or settlement of the Units (or otherwise in connection with this Agreement).
9.Withholding Obligations. As a condition to delivery of the Shares, the Grantee hereby authorizes the Company to withhold from the Shares deliverable under this Agreement a number of Shares with a Fair Market Value (measured as of the date tax withholding obligations are to be determined) equal to the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or a Related Entity, if any. In the event that the Administrator determines in its discretion that such withholding of Shares is not permitted pursuant to the Applicable Laws, the rules and regulations of any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the Company, or the rules of any exchanges upon which the Shares may be listed, then the Administrator may, in its
discretion, make alternative arrangements for satisfying the Company’s (or a Related Entity’s) withholding obligations, utilizing any method permitted by the Plan, including but not limited to requiring Grantee to tender a cash payment or withholding from salary or other compensation payable to Grantee.
10.Application of Section 409A of the Code. The parties intend that the delivery of Shares in respect of the Units provided under this Agreement satisfies, to the greatest extent possible, the exemption from the application of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively, “Section 409A”) provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (or any other applicable exemption), and this Agreement will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions. To the extent not so exempt, the delivery of Shares in respect of the Units provided under this Agreement will be conducted, and this Agreement will be construed, in a manner that complies with Section 409A and is consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A. The parties further intend that each installment of any payments provided for in this Agreement is a separate “payment” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i). To the extent that (a) one or more of the payments received or to be received by Grantee pursuant to this Agreement would constitute deferred compensation subject to the requirements of Section 409A, and (b) Grantee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, then solely to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of any additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A, the commencement of any payments under this Agreement will be deferred until the date that is six months following the Grantee’s termination of Continuous Service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Grantee) and will instead be paid on the date that immediately follows the end of such six-month period (or death) or as soon as administratively practicable within thirty (30) days thereafter. The Company makes no representations to Grantee regarding the compliance of this Agreement or the Units with Section 409A, and Grantee is solely responsible for the payment of any taxes or penalties arising under Section 409A(a)(1), or any state law of similar effect, with respect to the grant or vesting of the Units or the delivery of the Shares hereunder.
11.Clawback. Grantee acknowledges and agrees all compensation payable pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to forfeiture and repayment pursuant to (i) the Company’s compensation recovery, “clawback” or similar policy, if any, as may be in effect from time to time, or (ii) any compensation recovery, “clawback” or similar policy made applicable by law, including the provisions of Section 945 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules, regulations and requirements adopted thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any national securities exchange on which the Company’s equity securities may be listed, as may be in effect from time to time (the policies described in clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Policy”). In the event that Grantee receives compensation hereunder that is subject to forfeiture or repayment under such Policy, then Grantee will, upon the written request of the Administrator and in the Administrator’s sole discretion, forfeit and repay to the Company all amounts subject to repayment under the Policy. In addition, Grantee agrees to reimburse the Company with respect to the Units to the extent required under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or as otherwise required by law.
12.Adjustments. All references to the number of Units will be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, or other change in capitalization that may be made by the Company after the date of this Agreement, as provided in Section 13 of the Plan.
13.Electronic Delivery. Grantee hereby consents to receive documents related to the Units and any other Awards granted under the Plan by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company, and such consent shall remain in effect throughout until withdrawn in writing by Grantee.
14.Data Privacy. Grantee acknowledges that the Company holds certain personal information about him/her, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, details of the Units and any other entitlement to Shares awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested or unvested. Grantee consents to the collection, use and transfer (including but not limited to transfers to parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan), in electronic or other form, of such personal data for the purpose of implementing, administering, and managing Grantee’s participation in the Plan.
15.No Right to Continued Service. Neither this Agreement nor the award of the Units will confer upon the Grantee any right to continued employment or other service with the Company or a Related Entity, nor interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Related Entity to terminate the Continuous Service of Grantee.
16.Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of Grantee and Grantee’s heirs, executors, and personal representatives, and the Company and its successors and assigns.
17.Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement. Each party agrees that this Agreement may be executed by means of electronic signatures, and that electronic signatures (whether digital or encrypted) of the parties included in this Agreement are intended to authenticate this writing and to have the same force and effect as manual signatures. For this purpose, electronic signature means any electronic sound, symbol, or process attached to or logically associated with a record and executed and adopted by a party with the intent to sign such record, including facsimile, signatures on scanned documents or email electronic signatures.
18.Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed given when delivered personally, one day after deposit with a recognized international delivery service (such as FedEx), or three days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, certified or registered, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid, in each case addressed to the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth at the end of this Agreement or such other address as a party may designate by notifying the other in writing.
19.Choice of Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without giving effect to the choice of law rules of any jurisdiction. The parties agree that any litigation arising out of or related to the Units or this Agreement will be brought exclusively in any state or federal court in New Hanover County, North Carolina. Each party (i) consents to the personal jurisdiction of said courts, (ii) waives any venue or inconvenient forum defense to any proceeding maintained in such courts, and (iii) agrees not to bring any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court.
20.Modification of Agreement; Waiver. This Agreement may be modified, amended, suspended, or terminated, and any terms, representations or conditions may be waived, but only by a written instrument signed by each of the parties hereto, except as otherwise provided in the Plan. No waiver hereunder will constitute a waiver with respect to any subsequent occurrence or other transaction hereunder or of any other provision hereof.
21.Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, then the remaining provisions will nevertheless be binding and enforceable.
22.Entire Agreement. This Agreement, along with the Plan, constitutes and embodies the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no other agreements or understandings, written or oral, in effect between the parties hereto relating to the matters addressed herein.
23.Grantee’s Acknowledgements. Grantee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Company’s prospectus covering the Shares issued pursuant to the Plan (the “Prospectus”). Grantee has read and understands the terms of this Agreement, the Plan, and the Prospectus.
