The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the years endedDecember 31, 2021 and 2020 should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A, and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements appearing in this discussion and analysis. Refer to "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10K filed with theSEC onFebruary 9, 2021 , for discussion of our results of operations for the years endedDecember 31, 2020 and 2019. Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements and financial analysis contained in this report that are not historical facts may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

An important aspect of our growth strategy has been our ability to effectively service and manage a large number of loans and deposit accounts in multiple markets inTexas , as well as several lines of business serving a regional or national clientele of commercial borrowers. Early in 2021, we embarked on an enterprise-wide transformation which included detailed reviews of all of our business lines, our operating model, our investment spend and our overall strategy, which resulted in theSeptember 1, 2021 announcement by management of our new long-term strategy. This new long-term strategy is intended to ensure that we are best positioned to serve clients and capitalize on business opportunities going forward. This new plan includes focusing on building an operating model organized around client delivery and investing in technology. To achieve these goals we are pursuing an aggressive hiring plan to significantly increase the number of client-facing professionals by 2025, and we are also investing in new technologies and lines of business to become a full-service financial services firm for our clients, with the goal of improving client relationships and fee income. We are investing in treasury solutions product and service offerings, building on our existing private wealth business and expanding the scope of our investment banking product and service offerings. InMay 2021 the Bank applied to theTexas Department of Banking to convert from a national association to aTexas state-chartered bank. The application was approved during the third quarter and the conversion was effective at open of business onSeptember 15, 2021 . Effective as of the date of conversion, theTexas Department of Banking is the Bank's primary regulator, theFederal Deposit Insurance Corporation is the Bank's primary federal regulator and theFederal Reserve will continue to be the Company's primary federal regulator. InDecember 2021 , the Company received approval from theSEC andFINRA for registration andFINRA membership ofTCBI Securities , a wholly owned non-bank subsidiary of the Bank.TCBI Securities will provide investment banking products and services to our customers. Significant transactions affecting our financial statements during the year endedDecember 31, 2021 included: •Issuance of 5.75% fixed rate non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, Series B and issuance and sale of 12,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of the Series B Preferred Stock. Net proceeds from the sale totaled$289.7 million . The additional equity is being used for general corporate purposes, including funding regulatory capital infusions into the Bank, and was used to redeem our 6.5% non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock Series A, par value$0.01 per share, in accordance with its terms; •Issuance of$275.0 million in senior unsecured credit-linked notes that mature onSeptember 30, 2024 . The net proceeds of the offering are being used to expand the Bank's warehouse lending program and better serve our clients in all market environments; •Sale of our portfolio of MSRs and transition of the MCA program to a third-party. For additional information, see Note 5 - Certain Transfers of Financial Assets in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report; •Issuance and sale of$375.0 million of 4.00% fixed-to-fixed rate subordinated notes due 2031. For additional information, see Note 11 - Long-Term Debt in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report; •Redemption of our 6.50% non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, Series A. For additional information, see Note 20 - Material Transactions Affecting Stockholders' Equity in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report; •Redemption of our 6.50% subordinated notes due 2042. For additional information, see Note 11 - Long-Term Debt in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report; •Negative provision for credit losses of$30.0 million for full year 2021, primarily reflecting improvements in the economic outlook as the economy recovered from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic during 2021 combined with a decrease in criticized loans; and •Write-off of$12.0 million of certain software assets to reposition our capitalized technology investment to align with the long-term strategy as announced by management in the third quarter of 2021. Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and continues to have, a significant impact on the global community. The related restrictive measures taken by governments, businesses and individuals have caused and continue to cause uncertainty, volatility and disruption in financial markets and in governmental, commercial and consumer activity inthe United States and globally, including the markets that we serve. As the restrictive measures began to be eased during 2021, theU.S. economy has begun to 36 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents improve from 2020, and with the availability and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, we anticipate continued improvements in commercial and consumer activity and theU.S. economy. EffectiveJune 1, 2021 , we returned to pre-pandemic business operations and brought 100% of our workforce back into the office. Our branch locations are currently open and operating during normal business hours. We continue to take additional precautions within our branch locations, including enhanced cleaning procedures, to ensure the safety of our customers and our employees. We have taken deliberative actions toward our goal of ensuring that we have the balance sheet strength to serve our clients and communities, including by seeking to increase our liquidity and manage our assets and liabilities in order to maintain a strong capital position; however, future economic conditions are subject to significant uncertainty. Uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic include the duration of any COVID-19 outbreaks and any related variants, the availability and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines, the impact to our customers, employees and vendors and the impact to the economy as a whole. COVID-19 had a significant adverse impact on our business, financial position and operating results for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 . While the economy began to recover in 2021, uncertainty still exists, but we believe we are well-positioned to operate effectively through the present economic environment.

(2)Taxable equivalent rates used where applicable assuming a 21% tax rate. Net Interest Income Net interest income was$768.8 million for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 compared to$851.3 million for 2020. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in total average loans and earning asset yields, partially offset by an increase in average investment securities as well as declining cost of funds. Average earning assets for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 increased by$717.1 million compared to the same period in 2020, and included a$2.7 billion increase in average total investment securities, reflecting the deployment of excess liquidity into higher-yielding investment securities, and an$894.5 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits in other banks, partially offset by a$2.8 billion decrease in average total loans. Throughout 2020, management took deliberate actions to increase the balance of interest-bearing deposits in other banks to ensure we had the balance sheet strength to serve our clients during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, balances remained elevated, although began to run off in the later part of the year as we purchased investment securities and proactively exited certain high-cost indexed deposit products. The decrease in average loans held for sale resulted from the transition of the MCA program to a third-party in 2021. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased$3.3 billion for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a$3.0 billion decrease in average interest-bearing deposits and a$716.1 million decrease in other borrowings, partially offset by a$406.4 million increase in average long-term debt. Average demand deposits for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 increased to$15.2 billion from$11.6 billion for 2020. Net interest margin for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 was 2.07% compared to 2.34% for 2020. The decrease was primarily due to the effect of declining interest rates on earning asset yields and a shift in earning asset composition, primarily increases in lower-yielding investment securities and interest-bearing deposits in other banks, partially offset by lower funding costs compared to 2020. The yield on total loans held for investment, net, decreased to 3.56% for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 compared to 3.88% for 2020 and the yield on earning assets decreased to 2.36% for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 compared to 2.86% for 2020. The average cost of total deposits decreased to 0.21% for 2021 from 0.47% for 2020 and total funding costs, including all deposits, long-term debt and stockholders' equity decreased to 0.28% for 2021 compared to 0.51% for 2020. 39 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This decrease was primarily due to decreases in net gain/(loss) on sale of loans held for sale, brokered loan fees and servicing income, all resulting from the 2021 sale of our MSR portfolio and transition of the MCA program to a third-party. Offsetting these decreases were increases in service charges, related to a change in fee structure for our deposits on analysis, wealth management and trust fee income, related to increases in assets under management and market values, and in other non-interest income, primarily related to a gain on the sale of a foreclosed asset.

The decrease was primarily due to decreases in marketing, legal, communication and technology expenses, servicing-related expenses and merger-related expenses, partially offset by an increase in salaries and employee benefits, resulting primarily from increased headcount in 2021. The decrease in servicing-related expenses resulted from the 2021 sale of our MSR portfolio and transition of the MCA program to a third-party. Communications and technology expense for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 included a$12.0 million write-off of certain software assets, as is discussed above, compared to$36.0 million included in the same period of 2020.

Mortgage finance loans
40 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents relate to our mortgage warehouse lending operations in which we purchase mortgage loan ownership interests that are typically sold within 10 to 20 days and represent 33% of total loans held for investment atDecember 31, 2021 compared to 37% atDecember 31, 2020 . Volumes fluctuate based on the level of market demand for the product and the number of days between purchase and sale of the loans, which can be affected by changes in overall market interest rates, and tend to peak at the end of each month. Despite the decline in 2021, balances in this portfolio remain elevated related to increases in volumes driven by continued lower long-term interest rates. The decline in the real estate loan portfolio was primarily due to above-average payoffs during 2021. We originate a substantial majority of all loans held for investment. We also participate in syndicated loan relationships, both as a participant and as an agent. As ofDecember 31, 2021 , we had$2.5 billion in syndicated loans,$688.2 million of which we administer as agent. All syndicated loans, whether we act as agent or participant, are underwritten to the same standards as all other loans we originate. As ofDecember 31, 2021 ,$9.6 million of our syndicated loans were on non-accrual. Portfolio Concentrations Although more than 50% of our total loan exposure is outside ofTexas and more than 50% of our deposits are sourced outside ofTexas , ourTexas concentration remains significant. As ofDecember 31, 2021 , a majority of our loans held for investment, excluding mortgage finance loans and other national lines of business, were to businesses with headquarters or operations inTexas . This geographic concentration subjects our loan portfolio to the general economic conditions within this state. The risks created by this concentration have been considered by management in the determination of the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses.

Our largest concentration of commercial loans held for investment in any single industry is in financials excluding banks. Loans extended to borrowers in the financials excluding banks category are comprised largely of loans to companies who loan money to businesses and consumers for various purposes including, but not limited to, insurance, consumer goods and real estate. This category also includes loans to companies involved in investment management and securities and commodities trading. The next largest industry concentration of commercial loans held for investment is to commercial borrowers providing services to the real estate industry. Loans in this category are not secured by real property and are generally made to commercial borrowers that operate within the real estate industry, which include developers, contractors, professional service providers (such as architectural and interior design services), leasing, management, and other support type services. 41 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents We believe the loans we originate are appropriately collateralized under our credit standards. Approximately 96% of our loans held for investment are secured by collateral.

This portfolio primarily includes market risk real estate loans, consisting of commercial real estate loans and loans made to residential builders and developers. Loan amounts are determined in part from an analysis of pro forma cash flows. Loans are also underwritten to comply with product-type specific advance rates against both cost and market value. We extend commercial real estate loans, including both construction/development financing and limited term financing, to professional real estate developers and owners/managers of commercial real estate projects and properties who have a demonstrated record of past success with similar properties. Collateral properties generally include office buildings, warehouse/distribution buildings, shopping centers, hotels/motels, senior living, apartment buildings and residential and commercial tract development. The primary source of repayment on these loans is expected to come from the sale, permanent financing or lease of the real property collateral. Loans to residential builders are typically in the form of uncommitted guidance lines and are for the purpose of developing lots into single-family homes, while loans to developers are typically in the form of borrowing base lines extended for the purpose of acquiring and developing raw land into lots that can be further sold to home builders.

As a result, obtaining current and objectively prepared appraisals is a major part of our underwriting and monitoring processes. We engage a variety of professional firms to supply appraisals, market studies and feasibility reports, environmental assessments and project site inspections to complement our internal resources to underwrite and monitor these credit exposures. Generally, our policy requires a new appraisal every three years. However, in periods of economic uncertainty where real estate market conditions may change rapidly, more current appraisals are obtained when warranted by conditions such as a borrower's deteriorating financial condition, their possible inability to perform on the loan or other indicators of increasing risk of reliance on collateral value as the sole source of repayment of the loan. Annual appraisals are generally obtained for loans graded substandard or worse where real estate is a material portion of the collateral value and/or the income from the real estate or sale of the real estate is the primary source of debt service. Appraisals are, in substantially all cases, reviewed by a third party to determine the reasonableness of the appraised value. The third party reviewer will challenge whether or not the data used is appropriate and relevant, form an opinion as to the appropriateness of the appraisal methods and techniques used, and determine if overall the analysis and conclusions of the appraiser can be relied upon. Additionally, the third party reviewer provides a detailed report of that analysis. Further review may be conducted by our credit officers, as well as by the Bank's managed asset committee as conditions warrant. These additional steps of review are undertaken to confirm that the underlying appraisal and the third party analysis can be relied upon. If we have differences, we address those with the reviewer and determine an appropriate resolution. Both the appraisal process and the appraisal review process can be less reliable in establishing accurate collateral values during and following periods of economic weakness due to the lack of comparable sales and the limited availability of financing to support an active market of potential purchasers. Large Credit Relationships We originate and maintain large credit relationships with numerous customers in the ordinary course of business. The legal lending limit of our Bank is approximately$536.7 million . We employ much lower house limits which vary by assigned risk grade, product and collateral type. Such house limits, which generally range from$20 million to$60 million , may be exceeded with appropriate authorization for exceptionally strong borrowers and otherwise where business opportunity and assessed credit risk warrant a somewhat larger investment. We consider large credit relationships to be those with commitments equal to or in excess of$20.0 million .

Interest Reserve Loans As ofDecember 31, 2021 andDecember 31, 2020 , we had$456.1 million and$549.1 million , respectively, in loans held for investment that included interest reserve arrangements, representing approximately 25% and 23%, respectively, of outstanding construction loans, which are a component of real estate loans. Interest reserve provisions are common in construction loans. The use of interest reserves is carefully controlled by our underwriting standards, which consider the feasibility of the project, the creditworthiness of the borrower and guarantors and the loan-to-value coverage of the collateral. The interest reserve allows the borrower to draw loan funds to pay interest charges on the outstanding balance of the loan when financial conditions precedent are met. When drawn, the interest is capitalized and added to the loan balance, subject to conditions specified during the initial underwriting and at the time the credit is approved. We have ongoing controls for monitoring compliance with loan covenants, advancing funds and determining default conditions. When we finance land on which improvements will be constructed, construction funds are generally not advanced until the borrower has received lease or purchase commitments which will meet cash flow coverage requirements and/or our analysis of market conditions and project feasibility indicates to our satisfaction that such lease or purchase commitments are forthcoming or other sources of repayment have been identified to repay the loan. It is our general policy to require a substantial equity investment by the borrower to complement the Bank's credit commitment. Any such required borrower investment is first contributed and invested in the project before any draws are allowed under the Bank's credit commitment. We require current financial statements of the borrowing entity and guarantors, as well as conduct periodic inspections of the project and analysis of whether the project is on schedule or delayed. Updated appraisals are ordered when necessary to validate the collateral values to support advances, including reserve interest. Advances of interest reserves are discontinued if collateral values do not support the advances or if the borrower does not comply with other terms and conditions in the loan agreements. In addition, most of our construction lending is performed inTexas and our lenders are very familiar with trends in local real estate. If at any time we believe that our collateral position is jeopardized, we retain the right to stop the use of interest reserves. As ofDecember 31, 2021 andDecember 31, 2020 , none of our loans with interest reserves were on non-accrual. 44 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Non-performing Assets Non-performing assets include non-accrual loans and leases and repossessed assets. The table below summarizes our non-accrual loans by type and by type of property securing the credit. We did not have repossessed assets balances atDecember 31, 2021 or 2020.

(2)AtDecember 31, 2021 and 2020, loans past due 90 days and still accruing includes premium finance loans of$3.3 million and$6.4 million , respectively. (3)Includes one non-accrual loan previously reported in loans held for investment that was transferred to loans held for sale as ofDecember 31, 2020 and subsequently sold at carrying value. (4)Includes loans guaranteed byU.S. government agencies that were repurchased out ofGinnie Mae securities. Loans are recorded as loans held for sale and carried at fair value on the balance sheet. Interest on these past due loans accrues at the debenture rate guaranteed by theU.S. government. Balances as ofDecember 31, 2020 also include loans that, pursuant toGinnie Mae servicing guidelines, we have the unilateral right, but not the obligation, to repurchase if defined delinquent loan criteria are met and therefore must record as loans held for sale on our balance sheet regardless of whether the repurchase option has been exercised. Total non-accrual loans atDecember 31, 2021 decreased$49.5 million fromDecember 31, 2020 . The decrease during 2021 primarily related to declines in energy and real estate non-accrual loans. Summary of Credit Loss Experience The provision for credit losses, comprised of a provision for loans and off-balance sheet credit losses, is a charge to earnings to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level consistent with management's assessment of expected losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. Below is a discussion of provision for credit losses on loans. See Note 12 - Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for presentation of the activity in the allowance for credit losses for off-balance asset credit losses. We recorded a negative$29.8 million provision for credit losses on loans for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 compared to a$249.8 million provision for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 . The year-over-year decrease resulted primarily from decreases in net charge-offs and criticized loans, as well as improvements in the economic outlook as the economy recovered from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic during 2021. We recorded$12.9 million in net charge-offs during the year endedDecember 31, 2021 compared to$198.8 million during 2020. Criticized loans totaled$582.9 million atDecember 31, 2021 , compared to$918.4 million atDecember 31, 2020 . 45 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents The table below presents a summary of our credit loss experience on loans for the past two years: Mortgage Real (dollars in thousands) Commercial Energy Finance Estate Total Year endedDecember 31, 2021 Beginning balance$ 73,061 $ 84,064 $ 4,699 $ 92,791 $ 254,615 Provision for credit losses on loans 36,733 (27,045) 1,384 (40,903) (29,831) Charge-offs 11,987 6,418 - 1,192 19,597 Recoveries 4,395 1,967 - 317 6,679 Net charge-offs 7,592 4,451 - 875 12,918 Ending balance$ 102,202 $ 52,568 $ 6,083 $ 51,013 $ 211,866 Net charge-offs to average loans held for 0.08 % 0.65 % - % 0.02 % 0.06 % investment Allowance for credit losses on loans to loans 0.93 % held for investment Allowance for credit losses on loans to average 0.91 % loans held for investment Total provision for credit losses to average (0.13) % loans held for investment(1) Total allowance for credit losses to loans held 1.00 % for investment(2) Year endedDecember 31, 2020 Beginning balance$ 102,254 $ 60,253 $ 2,265 $ 30,275 $ 195,047 Impact of CECL adoptions (15,740) 24,154 2,031 (1,860) 8,585 Provision for credit losses on loans 58,630 126,180 403 64,556 249,769 Charge-offs 73,360 133,522 - 180 207,062 Recoveries 1,277 6,999 - - 8,276 Net charge-offs 72,083 126,523 - 180 198,786 Ending balance$ 73,061 $ 84,064 $ 4,699 $ 92,791 $ 254,615 Net charge-offs to average loans held for 0.78 % 12.02 % - % - % 0.80 % investment Allowance for credit losses on loans to loans 1.04 % held for investment Allowance for credit losses on loans to average 1.02 % loans held for investment Total provision for credit losses to average 1.03 % loans held for investment(1) Total allowance for credit losses to loans held 1.11 %

The sale was completed onJune 1, 2021 and the transfer of servicing on the underlying mortgage loans was completed onAugust 1, 2021 . Transition activities began immediately following the execution of the agreement and were complete prior toDecember 31, 2021 . We sold the remaining MSR balance of$1.2 million , which represented MSRs from loans sold after the cut-off date for the initial sale mentioned above. The sale of this MSR portfolio and the transfer of servicing on the underlying mortgage loans were completed onOctober 1, 2021 , at which time all remaining MSR hedge positions were closed. AtDecember 31, 2021 , we have$8.1 million in loans held for sale remaining on our balance sheet. For additional information on our loans held for sale portfolio, see Note 1 - Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 5 - Certain Transfers of Financial Assets in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. Deposits We compete for deposits by offering a broad range of products and services to our customers. While this includes offering competitive interest rates and fees, the primary means of competing for deposits is convenience and service to our customers, tailored to our strategy of maintaining a branch-lite network. Our Bank offers banking centers, courier services and online and mobile banking.BankDirect andBask Bank , our online banking divisions, serve customers on a 24 hours-a-day, 7 days-a-week basis solely through online banking.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity In general terms, liquidity is a measurement of our ability to meet our cash needs. Our objectives in managing our liquidity are to maintain our ability to meet loan commitments, repurchase investment securities and repay deposits and other liabilities in accordance with their terms, without an adverse impact on our current or future earnings. Our liquidity strategy is guided by policies, formulated and monitored by our senior management and ourAsset and Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"), which take into account the demonstrated marketability of our assets, the sources and stability of our funding and the level of unfunded commitments. We regularly evaluate all of our various funding sources with an emphasis on accessibility, stability, reliability and cost-effectiveness. Our principal source of funding is customer deposits, supplemented by short-term and long-term borrowings, primarily from federal funds purchased and FHLB borrowings, which are generally used to fund mortgage finance assets. We also rely on the availability of the mortgage secondary market provided byGinnie Mae and the GSEs to support the liquidity of our mortgage finance assets. Throughout 2020 we significantly increased our interest-bearing deposits in other banks to ensure that we have the balance sheet strength to serve our clients during the COVID-19 pandemic. These balances have remained elevated during 2021, although they are beginning to run off as we have purchased investment securities and proactively exited certain high-cost indexed deposit products. The following table summarizes these balances: December 31, (dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 Interest-bearing deposits in other banks $

Total deposits 27.6 % 29.1 %
Our liquidity needs to support growth in loans held for investment have been
fulfilled primarily through growth in our core customer deposits. Our goal is to
obtain as much of our funding for loans held for investment and other earning
assets as possible from deposits of these core customers. These deposits are
generated principally through development of long-term customer relationships,
with a significant focus on treasury management products. In addition to
deposits from our core customers, we also have access to deposits through
brokered customer relationships.
We also have access to incremental deposits through brokered retail certificates
of deposit, or CDs. These traditional brokered deposits are generally of short
maturities and are used to fund temporary differences in the growth in loan
balances as compared to customer deposits. The following table summarizes our
period-end and average core customer deposits, relationship brokered deposits
and traditional brokered deposits:

We have access to sources of traditional brokered deposits that we estimate to be$7.5 billion . Based on our internal guidelines, we have chosen to limit our use of these sources to a lesser amount. 48 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents We have short-term borrowing sources available to supplement deposits and meet our funding needs. Such borrowings are generally used to fund our mortgage finance loans, due to their liquidity, short duration and interest spreads available. These borrowing sources include federal funds purchased from our downstream correspondent bank relationships (which consist of banks that are smaller than our Bank) and from our upstream correspondent bank relationships (which consist of banks that are larger than our Bank), customer repurchase agreements and advances from the FHLB and theFederal Reserve . The following table summarizes our short-term and other borrowings, all of which mature within one year: December 31, (in thousands) 2021 2020 Federal funds purchased $ -$ 107,600 Repurchase agreements 2,832 4,151 FHLB borrowings 2,200,000 3,000,000 Line of credit -

For additional information on our short-term borrowings, see Note 10 - Short-Term and Other Borrowings in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. We also have long-term debt outstanding of$928.7 million as ofDecember 31, 2021 , comprised of trust preferred securities, subordinated notes and senior unsecured credit linked notes with maturity dates ranging fromSeptember 2024 toDecember 2036 . See Note 11 - Long-Term Debt in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information. The Company may consider raising additional capital, if needed, in public or private offerings of debt or equity securities to supplement deposits and meet our long-term funding needs. As the Company is a holding company and is a separate operating entity from our subsidiary bank, our primary sources of liquidity are dividends received from the Bank and borrowings from outside sources. Banking regulations may limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by the Bank. See Note 13 - Regulatory Restrictions in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information regarding dividend restrictions and "Liquidity Risks" included in Part I, Item 1A of this report. As ofDecember 31, 2021 , management is not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, capital resources or operations. In addition, management is not aware of any regulatory recommendations regarding liquidity that would have a material adverse effect on us. Capital Resources Our equity capital averaged$3.1 billion for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 compared to$2.8 billion in 2020. We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock since we commenced operations and have no plans to do so in the foreseeable future. For additional information on our capital and stockholders' equity, Note 13 - Regulatory Restrictions and Note 20 - Material Transactions Affecting Stockholders' Equity, respectively, in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. Critical Accounting EstimatesSEC guidance requires disclosure of "critical accounting estimates." TheSEC defines "critical accounting estimates" as those estimates made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the registrant. We follow financial accounting and reporting policies that are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted inthe United States . The more significant of these policies are summarized in Note 1 - Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. Not all significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments. However, the policy noted below could be deemed to meet theSEC's definition of a critical accounting policy. Allowance for Credit Losses Management considers the policies related to the allowance for credit losses as the most critical to the financial statement presentation. The total allowance for credit losses includes activity related to allowances calculated in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 326, Credit Losses. The allowance for credit losses is established through a provision for credit losses charged to current earnings. The amount maintained in the allowance reflects management's continuing evaluation of the credit losses expected to be recognized over the life of the loans in our portfolio. The allowance for credit losses on loans is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans' amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on 49

the loans. For purposes of determining the allowance for credit losses, the loan
portfolio is segregated by product types in order to recognize differing risk
profiles among categories, and then further segregated by credit grades. Loans
that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis and
are not included in the collective evaluation. Management estimates the
allowance balance using relevant available information from internal and
external sources relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and
supportable forecasts. Adjustments to historical loss information are made to
incorporate our reasonable and supportable forecast of future losses at the
portfolio segment level, as well as any necessary qualitative adjustments using
a Portfolio Level Qualitative Factor ("PLQF") and/or a Portfolio Segment Level
Qualitative Factor ("SLQF"). The PLQF and SLQF are utilized to address factors
that are not present in historical loss rates and are otherwise unaccounted for
in the quantitative process. A reserve is recorded upon origination or purchase
of a loan. See "Summary of Credit Loss Experience" above and Note 4 - Loans Held
for Investment and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans in the accompanying
notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report
for further discussion of the risk factors considered by management in
establishing the allowance for credit losses.
