ASU 2016-13,“Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. As noted above, effective January 1, 2022 the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, which resulted in a $7.6 million decrease to the allowance for credit losses and a $6.2 million increase to the reserve for off-balance sheet exposures, resulting in a $1.0 million increase in retained earnings (net of taxes). See Note 2– Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses for additional information.

ASU 2020-04,“Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” In March 2020, the FASB issued this ASU and has issued subsequent amendments thereto, which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance was effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued an update to Accounting Standards Update 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting with Accounting Standards Update 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which updated the effective date to be March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. The Company has implemented a transition plan to identify and modify its loans and other financial instruments, including certain indebtedness, with attributes that are either directly or indirectly influenced by LIBOR. The Company has moved substantially all of its LIBOR-based loans to its preferred replacement index, a Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") based index as of December 31, 2023. For the Company’s currently outstanding LIBOR-based loan, the timing and manner in which such customer's interest rate transitions to a replacement index should occur at the next repricing date for such loan.

ASU 2022-01,“Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method.” ASU 2022-01 was issued to expand the scope of assets eligible for portfolio layer method hedging to include all financial assets. The update also expanded the then current last-of-layer method that permitted onlyone hedged layer to allow multiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio. The last-of-layer method is renamed the portfolio layer method, because more than the last layer of a portfolio could be hedged. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2022-01 did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

ASU 2022-02,“Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” ASU 2022-02 was issued to respond to feedback received from post-implementation review of Topic 326. The amendments eliminate the troubled debt restructuring (TDR) recognition and measurement guidance and now require that an entity evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendments enhance existing disclosures and include new disclosure requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. To improve consistency for vintage disclosures, the ASU requires that public business entities disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of ASU-2022-02 did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

Other than those previously discussed, there were no other recently issued accounting pronouncements that are expected to materially impact the Company.
