Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL"):
Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.  We currently estimate our loss reserves may increase up to 10% upon the finalization of our adoption of the new ASU.

This increase is driven by:

  • The change in the timing of potential loss recognition from an incurred loss methodology to an expected loss methodology on loans and off-balance sheet commitments,
  • the establishment of life-of-asset loss reserves,
  • the change in accounting for purchased assets,
  • utilization of reasonable and supportable forecasts.

Outlook:
Management reforecasts on a quarterly basis and anticipates:

  • Annual loan growth to be in the mid-single digits in 2020.
  • Our quarterly noninterest expense run rate will range between $94 - $97 million for 2020.

TowneBank will hold its 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders at 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, May 20, 2020 at the Virginia Beach Convention Center, 1000 19th Street in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").  The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company's performance.  These measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to exclude the effects of the amortization of intangibles and include the tax benefit associated with revenue items that are tax-exempt, as well as adjust income available to common shareholders for certain significant activities or transactions that are infrequent in nature.  Since the presentation of these GAAP performance measures and their impact differ between companies, management believes presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s core businesses.  These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP disclosures are included as tables at the end of this release.
