PRIMIS FINANCIAL CORP.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2022

1.      ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Primis Financial Corp. (“Primis,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is the bank holding company for Primis Bank (“Primis Bank” or the “Bank”), a Virginia state-chartered bank which commenced operations on April 14, 2005. Primis Bank provides a range of financial services to individuals and small and medium-sized businesses.

At March 31, 2022, Primis Bank had forty full-service branches in Virginia and Maryland and also provides services to customers through certain online and mobile applications. Thirty-five full-service retail branches are in Virginia and five full-service retail branches are in Maryland. The Company is headquartered in McLean, Virginia and has administrative offices in Warrenton, Virginia and Glen Allen, Virginia. Our deposits are insured, up to applicable limits, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). 

Primis offers a wide range of commercial banking services; however, we are focused on making loans secured primarily by commercial real estate and other types of secured and unsecured commercial loans to small and medium-sized businesses in a number of industries, as well as loans to individuals for a variety of purposes, including home equity lines of credit. We are a Small Business Administration (“SBA”) lender with Preferred Lending Partner (“PLP”) status that allows us to offer this program nationwide. We also invest in real estate-related securities, including collateralized mortgage obligations and agency mortgage backed securities. Our principal sources of funds for loans and investing in securities are deposits and, to a lesser extent, borrowings. We offer a broad range of deposit products, including checking, NOW, savings, and money market accounts and certificates of deposit, supporting the needs of businesses and individuals. We actively pursue business relationships by utilizing the business contacts of our senior management, other bank officers and our directors, thereby capitalizing on our knowledge of our local market areas.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Primis and its subsidiaries Primis Bank and EVB Statutory Trust I (the “Trust”). Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Primis consolidates subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50 percent of the voting rights or where it exercises control. Entities where Primis holds 20 to 50 percent of the voting rights, or has the ability to exercise significant influence, or both, are accounted for under the equity method. Primis owns the Trust which is an unconsolidated subsidiary and the junior subordinated debt owed to the Trust is reported as a liability of Primis.

Discontinued Operation

Primis Bank had an interest in one mortgage company, Southern Trust Mortgage, LLC (“STM”). Prior to December 31, 2021, Primis Bank owned 43.28% and 100% of STM’s common and preferred stock, respectively, and STM was considered an unconsolidated affiliate of the Company. On September 23, 2021, Primis Bank entered into an agreement with STM, whereby STM agreed to purchase all of the Bank's common membership interests and a portion of the Bank's preferred interests in STM for a combination of $1.6 million in cash and a promissory note for $8.5 million. The transaction closed on December 31, 2021. Upon closing, STM continued to be a borrower of the Bank, but the Bank is no longer a minority owner of STM and STM is no longer considered an affiliate of the Company. The Company still holds 100% of STM’s preferred stock at March 31, 2022 but no longer has a position on STM’s board of directors and STM no longer represents a reportable operating segment of the Company.  

Operating Segments

Operating segments are defined as components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief financial officer and chief accounting officer in deciding how to allocate resources

Table of Contents

and in assessing performance. Discrete financial information is not available other than on a company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and instructions for Form 10-Q and follow general practice within the banking industry. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Primis’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to change in the near term include: the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the fair value of investment securities, credit impairment of investment securities, the valuation of goodwill and deferred tax assets.

Reclassifications

In certain instances, amounts reported in prior years’ consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported cash flows, stockholders’ equity or net income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:

In March 2022, FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance on troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) for creditors in ASC 310-402 and amends the guidance on “vintage disclosures” to require disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. The ASU also updates the requirements related to accounting for credit losses under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326 and adds enhanced disclosures for creditors with respect to loan refinancing and restructurings for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. ASU 2022-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Primis is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Investment securities with a carrying amount of approximately $169.5 million and $180.7 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, certain other deposits, a line of credit for advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta, and repurchase agreements.

Management measures expected credit losses on held-to-maturity securities on a collective basis by major security type with each type sharing similar risk characteristics, and considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. With regard to U.S. Treasury and residential mortgage-backed securities issued by the U.S. government, or agencies thereof, it is expected that the securities will not be settled at prices less than the amortized cost bases of the securities as such securities are backed by the full faith and credit of and/or guaranteed by the U.S. government. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded for these securities. With regard to securities issued by States and political subdivisions and other held-to-maturity securities, management considers (i) issuer bond ratings, (ii) historical loss rates for given bond ratings, (iii) whether issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments under the contractual terms of the securities and (iv) internal forecasts. As of March 31, 2022, Primis did not have any allowance for credit losses on held-to-maturity securities.

The accounting policy related to the allowance for credit losses is considered a critical policy given the level of estimation, judgment, and uncertainty in the levels of the allowance required to account for the inherent probable losses in the loan portfolio and the material effect such estimation, judgment, and uncertainty can have on the consolidated financial results.

Accrued Interest Receivable

Accrued interest receivable on loans totaled $10.0 million and $10.8 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans

Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. In determining whether or not a borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations for each class of loans, we consider the borrower’s debt service capacity through the analysis of current financial information, if available, and/or current information with regards to our collateral position. Regulatory provisions would typically require the placement of a loan on nonaccrual status if (i) principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection or (ii) full payment of principal and interest is not expected. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received in excess of principal due. A loan may be returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future principal and interest amounts contractually due are reasonably assured, which is typically evidenced by a sustained period (at least six months) of repayment performance by the borrower.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A modification is classified as a TDR if both of the following exist: (1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and (2) the Bank has granted a concession to the borrower. The Bank determines that a borrower may be experiencing financial difficulty if the borrower is currently delinquent on any of its debt, or if the Bank is concerned that the borrower may not be able to perform in accordance with the current terms of the loan agreement in the foreseeable future. Many aspects of the borrower’s financial situation are assessed when determining whether they are experiencing financial difficulty, particularly as it relates to commercial borrowers due to the complex nature of the loan structure, business/industry risk and borrower/guarantor structures. Concessions may include the reduction of an interest rate at a rate lower than current market rates for a new loan with similar risk, extension of the maturity date, reduction of accrued interest, or principal forgiveness. When evaluating whether a concession has been granted, the Bank also considers whether the borrower has provided additional collateral or guarantors and whether such additions adequately compensate the Bank for the restructured terms, or if the revised terms are consistent with those currently being offered to new loan customers. The assessments of whether a borrower is experiencing (or is likely to experience) financial difficulty and whether a concession has been granted is subjective in nature and management’s judgment is required when determining whether a modification is a TDR.

Although each occurrence is unique to the borrower and is evaluated separately, for all portfolio segments, TDRs are typically modified through reduction in interest rates, reductions in payments, changing the payment terms from principal and interest to interest only, and/or extensions in term maturity.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were 10 TDR loans outstanding in the amount of $3.1 million primarily due to the economic impact of COVID-19 on certain of the Bank’s borrower’s. There have been no defaults of TDRs modified during the past twelve months.

Credit Quality Indicators

Through its system of internal controls, Primis evaluates and segments loan portfolio credit quality using regulatory definitions for Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful. Special Mention loans are considered to be criticized. Substandard and Doubtful loans are considered to be classified.

Special Mention loans are loans that have a potential weakness that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position.

Substandard loans may be inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful loans have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Primis had no loans classified Doubtful at March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

In monitoring credit quality trends in the context of assessing the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses on loans, we monitor portfolio credit quality by the weighted-average risk grade of each class of loan.

Allowance For Credit Losses – Loans

The allowance for credit losses on loans is a contra-asset valuation account, calculated in accordance with ASC 326 that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected. The amount of the allowance represents management's best estimate of current expected credit losses on loans considering available information, from internal and external sources, relevant to assessing collectability over the loans' contractual terms, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate.

In calculating the allowance for credit losses, most loans are segmented into pools based upon similar characteristics and risk profiles. For allowance modeling purposes, our loan pools include (i) commercial real estate - owner occupied, (ii) commercial real estate - non-owner occupied, (iii) construction and land development, (iv) commercial, (v) agricultural loans, (vi) residential 1-4 family and (vii) consumer loans. We periodically reassess each pool to ensure the loans within the pool continue to share similar characteristics and risk profiles and to determine whether further segmentation is necessary. For each loan pool, we measure expected credit losses over the life of each loan utilizing a combination of inputs: (i) probability of default, (ii) probability of attrition, (iii) loss given default and (iv) exposure at default. Internal data is supplemented by, but not replaced by, peer data when required, primarily to determine the probability of default input. The various pool-specific inputs may be adjusted for current macroeconomic assumptions. Significant macroeconomic variables utilized in our allowance models include, among other things, (i) VA Gross Domestic Product, (ii) VA House Price Index, and (iii) VA unemployment rates.

Management qualitatively adjusts allowance model results for risk factors that are not considered within our quantitative modeling processes but are nonetheless relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within our loan pools.

18

Table of Contents

Qualitative factor (“Q-Factor”) adjustments are driven by key risk indicators that management tracks on a pool-by-pool basis. 

In some cases, management may determine that an individual loan exhibits unique risk characteristics which differentiate the loan from other loans within our loan pools. In such cases, the loans are evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis and excluded from the collective evaluation.

The following tables present details of the allowance for credit losses on loans segregated by loan portfolio segment as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, calculated in accordance with the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) methodology described above (in thousands).

4.      FAIR VALUE

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability

20

Table of Contents

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Assets Measured on a Recurring Basis:

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, investment securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 investment securities include highly liquid government bonds and mortgage products. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of investment securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flow. Level 2 investment securities include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, collateralized loan obligations and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, investment securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Currently, all of Primis’ available-for-sale debt investment securities are considered to be Level 2 investment securities.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-recurring Basis:

Loans

We may be required to measure certain financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower of amortized cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets due to impairment.

Collateral-dependent loans are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and are evaluated individually. These collateral-dependent loans are deemed to be at fair value if there is an associated allowance for credit losses or if a charge-off has been recorded in the previous 12 months. Collateral values are determined using appraisals or other third-party value estimates of the subject property discounted based on estimated selling costs, generally between 5% and 10%, and immaterial adjustments for other external factors that may impact the marketability of the collateral. The weighted average discount for estimated selling costs applied was 6%.

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)

OREO is evaluated at the time of acquisition and recorded at fair value as determined by independent appraisal or evaluation less cost to sell. In some cases appraised value is net of costs to sell. Selling costs have been in the range from 5% to 10% of collateral valuation at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Fair value is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. OREO is further evaluated quarterly for any additional impairment. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the total amount of OREO was $1.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents (including federal funds sold), accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, savings accounts, money market accounts and FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase.  

Fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates for similar financing. Carrying amount of Federal Reserve Bank and FHLB stock is a reasonable estimate of fair value as these securities are not readily marketable and are based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. The fair value of off-balance-sheet items is not considered material. Fair value of net loans, time deposits, junior subordinated debt, and senior subordinated notes are measured using the exit-price notion.

In recognizing lease right-of-use assets and related liabilities, we account for lease and non-lease components (such as taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance costs) separately as such amounts are generally readily determinable under our lease contracts. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had operating lease liabilities totaling $5.9 million and $6.5 million, respectively, and right-of-use assets totaling $5.3 million and $5.9 million, respectively, related to these leases. Operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets are reflected in our consolidated balance sheets. We do not currently have any financing leases. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, our net operating lease cost was $0.6 million and was reflected in occupancy expenses on our consolidated income statements.

The following table presents other information related to our operating leases:

6.      SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE AND OTHER BORROWINGS

Other borrowings can consist of FHLB convertible advances, FHLB of Atlanta overnight advances, FHLB advances maturing within one year, federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase (“repo”) that mature within one year, which are secured transactions with customers. The balance in repo accounts at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $11.2 million and $10.0 million, respectively.

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we have pledged callable agency securities, residential government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations with a carrying value of $19.4 million and $21.7 million, respectively, to customers who require collateral for overnight repurchase agreements and deposits.

7.     JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT AND SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES

In 2017, the Company assumed $10.3 million of trust preferred securities that were issued on September 17, 2003 and placed through a trust in a pooled underwriting totaling approximately $650 million. The trust issuer invested the total proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities in Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was $10.3 million outstanding, net of approximately $0.6 million of debt issuance costs. These securities pay cumulative cash distributions quarterly at a variable rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 2.95%. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the interest rate was 3.86% and 3.17%, respectively. The dividends paid to holders of these securities, which are recorded as interest expense, are deductible for income tax purposes.

The trust preferred securities may be included in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital adequacy determination purposes up to 25% of Tier 1 capital after its inclusion. At March 31, 2022, all of the trust preferred securities qualified as Tier 1 capital.

On January 20, 2017, Primis completed the sale of $27.0 million of its fixed-to-floating rate senior Subordinated Notes due 2027. These notes initially beared interest at 5.875% per annum until January 31, 2022; interest is currently payable at an annual floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 3.95% until maturity or early redemption. At March 31, 2022, all of these notes qualified as Tier 2 capital.

Table of Contents

In 2017, the Company assumed a Senior Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement, dated April 22, 2015, entered into with certain institutional accredited investors, pursuant to which $20.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2025 was sold to the investors. On February 1, 2021, the Company redeemed all of these notes.

On August 25, 2020, Primis completed the sale of $60.0 million of its fixed-to-floating rate Subordinated Notes due 2030. These notes will bear interest at an initial rate of 5.40% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on March 1, 2021. From and including September 1, 2025 to, but excluding the maturity date or the date of earlier redemption (the “floating rate period”), the interest rate will reset quarterly to an annual interest rate equal to the Benchmark rate, which is expected to be three-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate, plus 531 basis points, for each quarterly interest period during the floating rate period, payable quarterly in arrears on March 1, June 1, September 1, and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2025. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Benchmark rate is less than zero, the Benchmark rate shall be deemed to be zero. At March 31, 2022, all of these notes qualified as Tier 2 capital.

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs related to the senior Subordinated Notes totaled $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

8.      STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The 2017 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2017 Plan”) has a maximum number of 750,000 shares reserved for issuance. The purpose of the 2017 Plan is to promote the success of the Company by providing greater incentives to employees, non-employee directors, consultants and advisors to associate their personal interests with the long-term financial success of the Company, including its subsidiaries, and with growth in stockholder value, consistent with the Company’s risk management practices.

In September 2021, the Company issued 59,335 non-transferrable Units convertible, on a one-on-one basis, into shares of stock to eligible employees, granted pursuant to and subject to the provisions of the 2017 Plan.

These Units are subject to service and performance conditions. These Units vest based on the achievement of both conditions. Achievement of the performance condition will be determined at the end of the five-year performance period (the “Performance Period”) by evaluating the: 1) Company’s adjusted earnings per share compound annual growth measured for the Performance Period and 2) performance factor achieved. Payouts between performance levels will be determined based on straight line interpolation.

The Company did not recognize any stock-based compensation expense associated with these Units for the three months ended March 31, 2022 because it is not probable that these Units will vest. The grant date fair value of these Units was $15.00 per Unit. The potential unrecognized compensation expense associated with these Units is $1.3 million at March 31, 2022.

9.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Primis is a 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, standby letters of credit and guarantees of credit card accounts. These instruments involve elements of credit and funding risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. Letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by

26

Table of Contents

Primis to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. We had letters of credit outstanding totaling $12.7 million and $13.1 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is based on the contractual amount of these instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, we do not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with credit risk.

Allowance For Credit Losses - Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Exposures

The allowance for credit losses on off-balance-sheet credit exposures is a liability account, calculated in accordance with ASC 326, representing expected credit losses over the contractual period for which we are exposed to credit risk resulting from a contractual obligation to extend credit. No allowance is recognized if we have the unconditional right to cancel the obligation. Off-balance-sheet credit exposures primarily consist of amounts available under outstanding lines of credit and letters of credit detailed above. For the period of exposure, the estimate of expected credit losses considers both the likelihood that funding will occur and the amount expected to be funded over the estimated remaining life of the commitment or other off-balance-sheet exposure. The likelihood and expected amount of funding are based on historical utilization rates. The amount of the allowance represents management's best estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over the contractual life of the commitment. Estimating credit losses on amounts expected to be funded uses the same methodology as described for loans in Note 3 - Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses, as if such commitments were funded. The allowance for credit losses on off-balance-sheet credit exposures is reflected in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

Commitments

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 are made predominately for adjustable rate loans, and generally have fixed expiration dates of up to three months or other termination clauses and usually require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had unfunded lines of credit and undisbursed construction loan funds totaling $396.7 million and $411.0 million, respectively. Virtually all of our unfunded lines of credit and undisbursed construction loan funds are variable rate.

Primis also had commitments on the subscription agreements entered into for the investments in non-marketable equity securities of $4.6 million and $3.5 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. These commitments on subscription agreements are reflected in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis is presented to aid the reader in understanding and evaluating the financial condition and results of operations of Primis. This discussion and analysis should be read with the consolidated financial statements, the footnotes thereto, and the other financial data included in this report and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be attained for any other period. The emphasis of this discussion will be on the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 for the consolidated statements of income. For the consolidated balance sheets, the emphasis of this discussion will be the balances as of March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021. This discussion and analysis contains statements that may be considered “forward-looking statements” as defined in, and subject to the protections of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See the following section for additional information regarding forward-looking statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements and financial discussion and analysis contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact constitute forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance or results and should not be relied upon as representing management’s views as of any subsequent date. A forward-looking statement may include a statement of the assumptions or bases underlying the forward-looking statement. We believe we have chosen these assumptions or bases in good faith and that they are reasonable. We caution you, however, that assumptions or bases almost always vary from actual results,

30

Table of Contents

and the differences between assumptions or bases and actual results can be material. When considering forward-looking statements, you should refer to the risk factors and other cautionary statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our periodic and current reports filed with the SEC for specific factors that could cause our actual results to be different from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (or an earlier date to the extent applicable). Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly these statements in light of new information or future events.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We follow accounting and reporting policies that conform, in all material respects, to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. While we base estimates on historical experience, current information and other factors deemed to be relevant, actual results could differ from those estimates.

We consider accounting estimates to be critical to reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain and (ii) different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, could have a material impact on our financial statements.

Accounting policies related to the allowance for credit losses on financial instruments including loans and off-balance-sheet credit exposures are considered to be critical as these policies involve considerable subjective judgment and estimation by management. In the case of loans, the allowance for credit losses is a contra-asset valuation account, calculated in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, which is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected. In the case of off-balance-sheet credit exposures, the allowance for credit losses is a liability account, calculated in accordance with ASC 326. The allowance is reported as a component of other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Adjustments to the allowance are reported in our income statement as a component of other expenses.

The amount of each allowance account represents management's best estimate of current expected credit losses on these financial instruments considering available information, from internal and external sources, relevant to assessing exposure to credit loss over the contractual term of the instrument. Relevant available information includes historical credit loss experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. While historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses, adjustments to historical loss information may be made for differences in current portfolio-specific risk characteristics, environmental conditions or other relevant factors. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of our allowance accounts is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond our control, including the performance of our portfolios, the economy, changes in interest rates and the view of the regulatory authorities toward classification of assets. Refer to the 2021 Form 10-K for additional information regarding critical accounting policies.

Current Economic Environment

During the first quarter of 2022, the U.S. economy contracted for the first time since the second quarter 2020, as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) declined 1.4% on an annualized basis. The decline in real GDP reflected a decline in Federal national defense spending. However, consumer spending, a primary driver of economic activity, grew 2.7%, slightly above the fourth quarter 2021 rate of 2.5%. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics, the rate of unemployment again declined, falling to 3.6% in March 2022 from 3.9% in December 2021. At present, the epidemiological risks of COVID-19 have lessened and most of the social restrictions in response to those risks have been removed. However, lingering and pervasive economic effects of the pandemic remain, including supply chain backlogs, labor shortages and increased input costs, resulting in escalating inflationary conditions. Further, the recent military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has prompted concern over global commodity supply, intensifying inflationary pressures. In response to these conditions, in March 2022, the Federal Reserve approved the first interest rate increase in over three years. The 25-basis point interest rate increase is expected to be the first of potentially several increases in the next year.

31

Table of Contents

Our markets continued to show moderate signs of improvement in the quarter. Despite the lingering economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the emergence of new risks stemming from geopolitical conflict, overall credit loss outlook on our portfolio has not changed significantly.  

The effect of rising inflation and the Federal Reserve's actions to counter those effects are likely to reduce economic growth. While the operating environment remains challenging, we expect the planned interest rate increases will contribute favorably to our net interest margin and income, and we do not expect the rate increases to significantly impact core loan growth guidance. We continue to focus on effectively managing our asset/liability mix to maximize resources.  

Given the economic volatility experienced over the past two years, the remaining economic effects of the pandemic and the risks and uncertainties surrounding geopolitical unrest, it is not possible to accurately predict the extent, severity or duration that these conditions may have upon our results of operation. We continuously seek to monitor and anticipate developments as they relate to our business.

Cost of deposits declined to 0.35% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to 0.60% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Provision for credit losses were $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to a recovery of credit losses of $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Allowance for credit losses to total loans (excluding PPP balances) was 1.24% at March 31, 2022 compared to 1.29% at December 31, 2021.
Book value per share was $16.42 at March 31, 2022, representing a decrease of $0.34 from December 31, 2021 after $0.10 in dividends paid during first quarter of 2022. Equity balances were reduced by $10.6 million from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 because of unrealized mark-to-market adjustments on the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio due to dramatic increases in market interest rates during the quarter.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Income

Three-Month Comparison. Net income from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $4.6 million, or $0.19 basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to $8.4 million, or $0.35 basic and $0.34 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The 45% decrease in net income during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by lower net interest income in the current year. However, net interest income, excluding the effect of PPP fees, increased $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in net income was also attributable to provision for credit losses in 2022 compared to a recovery of credit losses in 2021 primarily as a result of robust loan growth and a slightly weaker economic outlook due to global uncertainty.

Net income from discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was zero, or zero basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to net income from discontinued operation of $1.0 million, or $0.04 basic and diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decline in net income from discontinued operation is related to the closing of the STM transaction in 2021, as discussed in Note 1 - Accounting Policies.

Net Interest Income

Our operating results depend primarily on our net interest income, which is the difference between interest and dividend income on interest-earning assets such as loans and investments, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings.

Three-Month Comparison. Net interest income was $22.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $25.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Primis’ net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 2.96%, compared to 3.41% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Net interest margin was impacted heavily by the origination of PPP loans in 2021 and 2020. Net PPP fee income recognized was $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 versus $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, a material decline from the first quarter of 2021. Net interest margin excluding the effects of PPP loans was 2.96% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to 2.99% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Total income on interest-earning assets was $26.6 million and $30.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The yield on average interest-earning assets was 3.44% and 4.14% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by market conditions. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased 30 basis points to 0.44% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to 0.74% cost on average interest-bearing deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Interest and fees on loans totaled $24.8 million and $29.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Average loans during the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $2.36 billion compared to $2.43 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses is a current charge to earnings made in order to adjust the allowance for credit losses to an appropriate level for inherent probable losses in the loan portfolio based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of lending, historical loan experience and other known internal and external factors affecting loan collectability. Our allowance for credit losses is calculated by segmenting the loan portfolio by loan type and applying risk factors to each segment. The risk factors are determined by considering historical loss data, peer data, as well as applying management’s judgment.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $0.1 million compared to a recovery of credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 of $1.4 million, primarily as a result of robust loan growth and a slightly weaker economic outlook due to global uncertainty. We had charge-offs totaling $0.1 million during three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. There were recoveries totaling $0.2 million during three months ended March 31, 2022 and $30 thousand during three months ended March 31, 2021.

The Financial Condition Section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis provides information on our loan portfolio, past due loans, nonperforming assets and the allowance for credit losses.

Noninterest income decreased 11.0% to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in noninterest income was primarily driven by a decrease of $0.3 million from the year-ago period in income on account maintenance and deposit service fees primarily due to reduction in income from new debit card contracts.

Noninterest expenses were $19.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $18.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The 5.3% increase in noninterest expenses was primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in data processing expense in 2022 driven by higher technology expenses in the current year. The increase in noninterest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was also attributable to a $0.3 million increase in employee compensation and benefits expense. Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses increased $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. Virginia franchise tax expense increased $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021. Other expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2022 compared to first quarter of 2021, largely driven by a $0.2 million decrease in the reserve for unfunded commitments.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Balance Sheet Overview

Total assets were $3.22 billion as of March 31, 2022 and $3.40 billion as of December 31, 2021. Total loans increased 2.3%, from $2.34 billion at December 31, 2021 to $2.39 billion at March 31, 2022. Excluding PPP loans, loans outstanding increased $99.6 million, or 4.4%, since December 31, 2021. Total deposits were $2.69 billion at March 31, 2022, compared to $2.76 billion at December 31, 2021 and total equity was $404.2 million and $411.9 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Equity balances were reduced by $10.6 million from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 because of unrealized mark-to-market adjustments on the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio due to dramatic increases in market interest rates during the quarter. The Company has the wherewithal to hold these securities until maturity or recovery of the value and does not anticipate realizing any losses on the investments.

Loans

Total loans were $2.39 billion and $2.34 billion at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. PPP loans totaled $31.4 million at March 31, 2022 and $77.0 million at December 31, 2021, respectively. Excluding PPP loans, loans outstanding increased $99.6 million, or 4.4%, since December 31, 2021.

Asset Quality

Asset quality remained solid during the first quarter of 2022. The outbreak of COVID-19 and resulting economic instability has had and will likely continue to have an impact on our asset quality. While COVID-19 cases are no longer at their peak and vaccinations have stemmed the outbreak, the residual effect of COVID-19 and the different variants, as well as new risks emerging from geopolitical conflict, continue to cause economic instability and uncertainty in evaluating the impact on our asset quality. We will generally place a loan on nonaccrual status when it becomes 90 days past due. Loans will also be placed on nonaccrual status in cases where we are uncertain whether the borrower can satisfy the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Cash payments received while a loan is categorized as nonaccrual will be recorded as a reduction of principal as long as doubt exists as to future collections. We defer COVID-impacted loans to the end of the deferral date and track delinquency from the end of that new deferral date. During the third and fourth quarters of 2021, the Company saw deferred loans return to traditional loan terms.  

We maintain appraisals on loans secured by real estate, particularly those categorized as nonperforming loans and potential problem loans. In instances where appraisals reflect reduced collateral values, we make an evaluation of the borrower’s overall financial condition to determine the need, if any, for impairment or write-down to their fair values. If foreclosure occurs, we record OREO at the lower of our recorded investment in the loan or fair value less our estimated costs to sell.

Our loss and delinquency experience on our loan portfolio has been limited by a number of factors, including our underwriting standards and the relatively short period of time since the loans were originated. Whether losses and delinquencies in our portfolio will increase significantly depends upon the value of the real estate securing the loans and economic factors, such as the overall economy in our market area, including as a result of the impact of COVID-19, interest rate increases and inflation.

OREO at March 31, 2022 was $1.0 million, compared to $1.2 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by sale of properties during 2022.

Nonaccrual loans were $14.9 million (excluding $2.7 million of loans fully covered by SBA guarantees) at March 31, 2022, compared to $15.0 million (excluding $1.1 million of loans fully covered by SBA guarantees) at December 31, 2021, a decrease of  0.6%. The ratio of nonperforming assets (excluding the SBA guaranteed loans) to total assets was 0.47% and 0.44% at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Table of Contents

At March 31, 2022, our total substandard loans totaled $23.6 million. Included in the total substandard loans were SBA guarantees of $1.0 million. Special mention loans totaled $51.9 million at March 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, there were ten TDR loans in the amount of $3.1 million. There have been no defaults of TDRs modified during the past twelve months.

We have an internal loan review and a loan committee, both of which provide on-going monitoring to identify and address issues with problem loans. The loan loss provision is determined after consideration of all known relevant internal and external factors affecting loan collectability to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses at a level necessary to absorb estimated credit losses.

Investment Securities

Investment securities, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, totaled $287.8 million at March 31, 2022, a decrease of 2.2% from $294.3 million at December 31, 2021.

Investment securities in our portfolio as of March 31, 2022 were as follows:

agency commercial mortgage-backed securities in the amount of $133.3 million;
corporate bonds in the amount of $16.1 million;

We recognized no credit impairment charges related to credit losses during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Liquidity and Funds Management

The objective of our liquidity management is to ensure the ability to meet our financial obligations. These obligations include the payment of deposits on demand or at maturity, the repayment of borrowings at maturity and the ability to fund commitments and other new business opportunities. We obtain funding from a variety of sources, including customer deposit accounts, customer certificates of deposit and payments on our loans and investments. If our level of core deposits are not sufficient to fully fund our lending activities, we have access to funding from additional sources, including borrowing from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, institutional certificates of deposit and the sale of available-for-sale investment securities. In addition, we maintain federal funds lines of credit with two correspondent banks and utilize securities sold under agreements to repurchase and reverse repurchase agreement borrowings from approved securities dealers.

We prepare a cash flow forecast on a 30, 60 and 90 day basis along with a one and a two year basis. The projections incorporate expected cash flows on loans, investment securities, and deposits based on data used to prepare our interest rate risk analyses.

At March 31, 2022, we had $396.7 million of unfunded lines of credit and undisbursed construction loan funds. The amount of certificate of deposit accounts maturing in less than one year was $286.4 million as of March 31, 2022. Management anticipates that funding requirements for these commitments can be met from the normal sources of funds.

As of March 31, 2022, Primis was not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our liquidity. As of March 31, 2022, Primis has no material commitments or long-term debt for capital expenditures.

Capital Resources

Capital management consists of providing equity to support both current and future operations. Primis Financial Corp. and its subsidiary bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory - and possibly additional discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action (“PCA”), we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. At March 31, 2022 and 2021, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under regulatory framework for PCA.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Primis to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of March 31, 2022, that Primis meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

(1)Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable at the bank holding company level.

Primis Financial Corp. and Primis Bank are required to meet minimum capital requirements set forth by regulatory authorities. Bank regulatory agencies have approved regulatory capital guidelines (“Basel III”) aimed at strengthening existing capital requirements for banking organizations. The Basel III Capital Rules require Primis Financial Corp. and Primis Bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer”, (ii) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer, (iii) a minimum ratio of Total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements may result in certain actions by regulators which could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Primis Financial Corp. and Primis Bank remain well-capitalized under Basel III capital requirements. Primis Bank had a capital conservation buffer of 8.95% at March 31, 2022, which exceeded the 2.50% minimum requirement below which the regulators may impose limits on distributions.

Primis Bank’s capital position is consistent with being well- capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are engaged primarily in the business of investing funds obtained from deposits and borrowings into interest-earning loans and investments. Consequently, our earnings depend to a significant extent on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income on loans and other investments and the interest expense on deposits and borrowings. To the extent that our interest-bearing liabilities do not reprice or mature at the same time as our interest-earning assets, we are subject to interest rate risk and corresponding fluctuations in net interest income. Our Asset-Liability Committee (“ALCO”) meets regularly and is responsible for reviewing our interest rate sensitivity position and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. The policies established by the ALCO are reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors. We have employed asset/liability management policies that seek to manage our net interest income, without having to incur unacceptable levels of credit or investment risk.

We use simulation modeling to manage our interest rate risk, and review quarterly interest sensitivity. This approach uses a model which generates estimates of the change in our economic value of equity (“EVE”) over a range of interest rate scenarios. EVE is the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts using assumptions including estimated loan prepayment rates, reinvestment rates and deposit decay rates.

42

Table of Contents

The following tables are based on an analysis of our interest rate risk as measured by the estimated change in EVE resulting from instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve (plus 400 basis points or minus 100 basis points, measured in 100 basis point increments) as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. All changes are within our Asset/Liability Risk Management Policy guidelines.

Our interest rate sensitivity is also monitored by management through the use of a model that generates estimates of the change in the net interest income (“NII”) over a range of interest rate scenarios. NII depends upon the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them. In this regard, the model assumes that the composition of our interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 remains constant over the period being measured and also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. All changes are within our ALM Policy guidelines at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in EVE and NII sensitivity requires the making of certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, although the EVE tables and NII tables provide an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to, and do not, provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our net worth and NII. Sensitivity of EVE and NII are modeled using different assumptions and approaches.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d -15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) utilizing the framework established in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
