1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business

First United Corporation is a Maryland corporation chartered in 1985 and a financial holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”) under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, that elected financial holding company status in 2021.  The Corporation’s primary business is serving as the parent company of First United Bank & Trust, a Maryland trust company (the “Bank”), First United Statutory Trust I (“Trust I”) and First United Statutory Trust II (“Trust II” and together with Trust I, the “Trusts”), both Connecticut statutory business trusts.  The Trusts were formed for the purpose of selling trust preferred securities that qualified as Tier 1 capital. The Bank has two consumer finance company subsidiaries - OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., a West Virginia corporation, and OakFirst Loan Center, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (together with OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., (the “OakFirst Loan Centers”) - and two subsidiaries that it uses to hold real estate acquired through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure - First OREO Trust, a Maryland statutory trust, and FUBT OREO I, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company. In addition, the Bank owns 99.9% of the limited partnership interests in Liberty Mews Limited Partnership, a Maryland limited partnership formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating low-income housing units in Garrett County, Maryland (“Liberty Mews”), and a 99.9% non-voting membership interest in MCC FUBT Fund, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating low-income housing units in Allegany County, Maryland (the “MCC Fund”).

First United Corporation and its subsidiaries operate principally in four counties in Western Maryland and three counties in West Virginia.

As used in these Notes, the terms “the Corporation”, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean First United Corporation and, unless the context clearly suggests otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

Basis of Presentation

The financial information is presented, in all material respects, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with general practices for financial institutions.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with current year classifications.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are normal recurring in nature) that are necessary for a fair statement are reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

In preparing financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of financial statements.  In addition, these estimates and assumptions affect revenues and expenses in the financial statements and as such, actual results could differ from those estimates.  

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation include the accounts of First United Corporation, the Bank, the OakFirst Loan Centers, First OREO Trust and FUBT OREO I, LLC. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Corporation’s relationships are with customers located in Western Maryland and Northeastern West Virginia.  At December 31, 2024, approximately 6%, or $95.3 million, of total loans were secured by real estate

acquisition, construction and development projects, with $95.2 million performing according to their contractual terms and $0.1 million considered to be individually evaluated loans based on management’s concerns about the borrowers’ ability to comply with present repayment terms. The $0.1 million in individually evaluated loans were all classified as non-accrual as of December 31, 2024.  Additionally, loans collateralized by commercial rental properties represented 21% of the total loan portfolio as of December 31, 2024.  Note 4, Investment Securities, discusses the types of securities in which the Corporation invests and Note 5, Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Loss, discusses the Corporation’s lending activities.

Investments

The investment portfolio is classified and accounted for based on the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. Securities bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading account securities and reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in net gains/losses in other operating income. Securities purchased with the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity (“HTM”) securities and are recorded at amortized cost. All other investment securities are classified as available-for-sale (“AFS”). These securities are held for an indefinite period of time and may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for liquidity purposes as part of our overall asset/liability management strategy. AFS securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes.

The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for the amortization of premiums to the first call date, if applicable, or to maturity, and for the accretion of discounts to maturity, or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security. Such amortization and accretion is included in interest income from investments. Interest and dividends are included in interest income from investments. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded using the specific identification method.

The Corporation adopted ASC Topic 326 using the prospective transition approach for debt securities for which other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) had been recognized prior to January 1, 2023, such as AFS collateralized debt obligations.  As a result, the amortized cost basis for such debt securities remained the same before and after the effective date of ASC Topic 326.  The effective interest rate on these debt securities was not changed.  Amounts previously written off are recognized in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as of January 1, 2023 relating to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected are accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset.  Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after January 1, 2023 are recorded in earnings when received.

Restricted Investment in Bank Stock

The Corporation owns non-marketable equity securities in a combination of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank and Community Banker’s Bank.  These securities are carried at cost, classified as restricted securities, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value.

The Corporation recognizes dividend income on a cash basis. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, dividends of $302,665 and $198,457, respectively, were recorded in other operating income.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or full repayment by the borrower are reported at their unpaid principal balance outstanding, adjusted for any deferred fees or costs pertaining to origination. Loans that management has the intent to sell are reported at the lower of cost or fair value determined on an individual basis.  There were $0.8 million and $0.4 million in loans held for sale at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.  

The segments of the Bank’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance. The commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. Non-owner occupied CRE loans, which include loans secured by non-owner occupied nonfarm nonresidential properties, generally have a greater risk profile than all other CRE loans, which include loans secured by farmland, multifamily structures and owner-occupied commercial structures. The acquisition and development (“A&D”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. One-to-four family residential construction loans are generally made to individuals for the acquisition of and/or construction on a lot or lots on which a residential dwelling is to be built. All other A&D loans are generally made to developers or investors for the purpose of acquiring, developing and constructing residential or commercial structures. These loans have a higher risk profile because the ultimate buyer, once development is completed, is generally not known at the time of the A&D loan. The commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers. The residential mortgage loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes: amortizing term loans, which are primarily first liens, and home equity lines of credit, which are generally second liens. The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans (direct and indirect), student loans and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts.

Management uses a 10-point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due are considered Substandard. Only the portion of a specific allocation of the allowance for credit losses is associated with a pending event that could trigger loss in the short term is classified in the Doubtful category.  It is possible for a loan to be classified as Substandard in the internal risk rating system, but not be individually evaluated under GAAP, due to the broader reach of “well-defined weaknesses” in the application of the Substandard definition.

Interest and Fees on Loans

Interest on loans (other than those on non-accrual status) is recognized based upon the principal amount outstanding.  Loan fees in excess of the costs incurred to originate the loan are recognized as income over the life of the loan utilizing either the interest method or the straight-line method, depending on the type of loan. Generally, fees on loans with a specified maturity date, such as residential mortgages, are recognized using the interest method. Loan fees for lines of credit are recognized using the straight-line method.

A loan is considered to be past due when a payment has not been received for 30 days past its contractual due date. For all loan segments, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection.  Loans that are on a current payment status or past due less than 90 days may be classified as nonaccrual if repayment in full of principal and/or interest is unlikely.  Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Generally, consumer installment loans are not placed on non-accrual status but are charged off after they are 120 days contractually past due. Loans other than consumer installment loans are charged-off based on an evaluation of the facts and circumstances of each individual loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses

An ACL is maintained to absorb losses from the Corporation’s financial assets in accordance with ASC Topic 326:  Financial Instruments- Credit Losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses Policy

The ACL represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb expected losses on outstanding loans at the balance sheet date based on the evaluation of the size and current risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and prepayment experience.  The ACL is measured and recorded upon the initial recognition of a financial asset.  The ACL is reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries of previous losses, and is increased or decreased by a provision for credit losses, which is recorded as a current period operating expense.  

Determination of an appropriate ACL is inherently complex and requires the use of significant and highly subjective estimates.  The reasonableness is reviewed quarterly by management.  

Management believes it uses relevant information available to make determinations about the ACL and that it has established the existing allowance in accordance with GAAP.  However, the determination of the ACL requires significant judgment, and estimates of expected losses in the loan portfolio can vary significantly from the amounts actually observed.  While management uses available information to recognize losses, future additions to the ACL may be necessary based on changes in the loans comprising the portfolio, changes in the current and forecasted economic conditions, changes to the interest rate environment which may directly impact prepayment and curtailment rate assumptions, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.

The adoption of CECL accounting did not result in a significant change to any other credit risk management and monitoring processes, including identification of past due or delinquent borrowers, nonaccrual practices, assessment of modified loans, or charge-off policy.  

Held-to-Maturity Securities

The ACL on HTM securities is a contra-asset valuation account, calculated in accordance with ASC 326.  Management measures expected credit losses on HTM debt securities on a collective basis by major security type.  Management has elected not to measure an ACL for accrued interest on securities. The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  

Management classifies the HTM portfolio into the following major security types:  securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies and corporations (including U.S. treasuries, agency bonds, and U.S. guaranteed residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and collateralized mortgage obligations), rated municipal securities, and unrated municipal securities.  With regard to securities issued by U.S. government agencies and corporations, it is expected that the securities will not settle 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 ACL has been recorded on these securities.  With regard to securities issued by states and political subdivisions, management considers (i) issuer bond ratings, (ii) historical loss rates for given bond ratings, and (iii) whether issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments under the contractual terms of the securities. Non-rated securities are evaluated internally based on financial performance and expected future cash flows.

Available-for-Sale Securities

For any AFS debt security in an unrealized loss position, the Corporation first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery to its amortized cost basis.  If either criterion regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income.  For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Corporation evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors.  In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors.  If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis

of the security.  If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an ACL is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis.  Any impairment that has not been recorded through the ACL is recognized in OCI.

The Corporation adopted ASC Topic 326 using the prospective transition approach for debt securities for which OTTI had been recognized prior to January 1, 2023, such as AFS collateralized debt obligations.  As a result, the amortized cost basis for such debt securities remained the same before and after the effective date of ASC Topic 326.  The effective interest rate on these debt securities was not changed.  Amounts previously written off are recognized in OCI as of January 1, 2023 relating to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected are accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset.  Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after January 1, 2023 are recorded in earnings when received.

Loans

An ACL is maintained as a valuation account that is deducted from the Corporation’s loan portfolio’s amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans.  Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.  Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off.  

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.  Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses.  Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term as well as for changes in environmental condition, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, or other relevant factors.  

The ACL includes an estimate of credit losses for pooled loans utilizing the Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF”) method.  Reserves for pooled loans are estimated by calculating the amount by which the outstanding principal balance exceeds the current estimate of the present value of future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate.  The ACL also includes an estimate of credit losses related to loans that are individually evaluated, known as Individually Evaluated Loans, or IELs.  Generally, an IEL reserve is calculated as the excess of the loan’s current outstanding principal balance, or general ledger balance if the loan is non-accrual, compared to the estimated fair value of the related collateral, less cost to sell, if any.

Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment if the loan is greater than $500,000 or is part of a relationship that is greater than $750,000 and (i) is either in non-accrual status or (ii) is risk-rated Substandard and is greater than 60 days past due. Loans are considered to be individually evaluated when, based on current information and events, they no longer share the same risk characteristics of other loans within our portfolio. Factors considered by management in evaluating loans include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. The Bank does not separately evaluate individual consumer and residential mortgage loans, unless such loans are part of larger relationship that is individually evaluated; otherwise, loans in these segments are considered individually evaluated when they are classified as non-accrual.

Once the determination has been made that a loan is individually evaluated, the determination of whether a specific allocation of the allowance is necessary is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods: (i) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (ii) the loan’s observable market price; or (iii) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs. The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis, with management utilizing the fair value of collateral or the discounted cash flow method for the analyses. If the fair value of the collateral less selling costs method is utilized for collateral securing

loans in the commercial segments, then an updated external appraisal is ordered on the collateral supporting the loan if the loan balance is greater than $500,000 and the existing appraisal is greater than 18 months old. If the loan balance is less than $500,000, then the estimated fair value of the collateral is determined by adjusting the existing appraisal by the appropriate percentage from an internally prepared appraisal discount grid. This grid considers the age of a third-party appraisal and the geographic region where the collateral is located in order to discount an appraisal. The discount rates in the appraisal discount grid are updated at least annually to reflect the most current knowledge that management has available, including the results of current appraisals. If there is a delay in receiving an updated appraisal or if the appraisal is found to be deficient in our internal appraisal review process and re-ordered, the Bank continues to use a discount factor from the appraisal discount grid based on the collateral location and current appraisal age in order to determine the estimated fair value. If the general market conditions in that geographic market have changed considerably, the property has deteriorated or perhaps lost an income stream, or a recent appraisal for a similar property indicates a significant change, then management may adjust the fair value indicated by the existing appraisal until a new appraisal is obtained. A specific allocation of the ACL is recorded if there is any deficiency in collateral value determined by comparing the estimated fair value to the recorded investment of the loan. When updated appraisals are received and reviewed, adjustments are made to the specific allocation as needed.  

A loan that is considered a non-accrual or modified loan may be subject to the individually evaluated loan analysis if the commitment is $0.1 million or greater; otherwise, the modified loan remains in the appropriate segment in the ACL model and associated reserves are adjusted based on changes in the discounted cash flows resulting from the modification of the modified loan.  For a discussion with respect to reserve calculations regarding individually evaluated loans, refer to the “Nonrecurring Loans” section in Note 17, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.   For a discussion with respect to loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, refer to the “Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty” section in Note 5, Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses.

The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the ACL and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis.

Loan Commitments and Allowance for Credit Loss on Unfunded Commitments

Financial instruments include unfunded commitments such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit issued to meet customer financing needs.  The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for unfunded commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

The Corporation records an ACL on unfunded commitments through a charge to provision for credit loss expense in the Corporation’s Consolidated Statement of Income.  The ACL on unfunded commitments is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the CECL model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur, and is included in the ACL on unfunded commitments as a liability on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Loan Modifications

In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition, management may grant a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider, the related loan is classified as a modified loan.  Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify the loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status.  The Corporation modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing principal forgiveness, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or interest rate reductions.  When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the ACL.  These concessions are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral.   See Note 5, Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses, for more detail related to the accounting of modified loans.

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The provision for depreciation for financial reporting has been made by using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 10 to 31.5 years for buildings and three to 20 years for furniture and equipment.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Impairment testing requires that the fair value of each of the Corporation’s reporting units be compared to the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s net assets, including goodwill. If the fair values of the reporting units exceed their book values, no write-down of recorded goodwill is required. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than book value, an expense may be required to write-down the related goodwill to the proper carrying value. Any impairment would be realized through a reduction of goodwill or the intangible and an offsetting charge to non-interest expense. Annually, the Corporation performs an impairment test of goodwill as of December 31 of each year. During the year, any triggering event that occurs may affect goodwill and could require an impairment assessment. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit requires the Corporation to use a degree of subjectivity. The Corporation's annual impairment test of goodwill and other intangible assets did not identify any impairment.

Accounting guidance provides the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights or because the asset is capable of being sold or exchanged either on its own or in combination with a related contract, asset, or liability. Other intangible assets have finite lives and are reviewed for impairment annually. At December 31, 2024, other intangible assets included $0.4 million for the purchase of certain assets from a wealth company and $0.4 million for the purchase of certain assets of a mortgage company.  These assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives either on a straight-line or sum-of-the-years basis over varying periods that initially did not exceed five years.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”)

BOLI policies are recorded at their cash surrender values. Changes in the cash surrender values are recorded as other operating income.

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less the cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, with any losses charged to the ACL, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Changes in the valuation allowance, sales gains and losses, and revenue and expenses from holding and operating properties are all included in total net OREO expenses.

Income Taxes

First United Corporation and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, the deferred tax liability or asset is determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences) and is measured at the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. A valuation

allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.  Deferred tax expense is determined by the change in the net liability or asset for deferred taxes adjusted for changes in any deferred tax asset valuation allowance, or reserve.  This reserve was based on the portion of the tax asset for which it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized by the Corporation.

A tax provision is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur.  The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examinations for tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.

State corporate income tax returns are filed annually. Federal and state returns may be selected for examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the states where we file, subject to statutes of limitations. At any given point in time, the Corporation may have several years of filed tax returns that may be selected for examination or review by taxing authorities.

Interest and penalties on income taxes are recognized as a component of income tax expense.

Defined Benefit Plans

The defined benefit pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits. Under the provisions of ASC Topic 715, the defined benefit pension plan and the supplemental executive retirement plan are recognized as liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, and unrecognized net actuarial losses, prior service costs and a net transition asset are recognized as a separate component of other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Actuarial gains and losses in excess of 10 percent of the greater of plan assets or the pension benefit obligation are amortized over a blend of future service of active employees and life expectancy of inactive participants. Refer to Note 14, Employee Benefit Plans, for a further discussion of the pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan obligations.

Statement of Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits in banks in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.  Cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions and interest-bearing deposits in banks.

Trust Assets and Income

Assets held in an agency or fiduciary capacity are not the Bank’s assets and, accordingly, are not included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Income from the Bank’s trust department represents fees charged to customers and recognized through revenue recognition.  Refer to Note 19, Revenue Recognition, and Note 20, Segment Reporting, for further discussion.

Business Segments

The Corporation operates in two business segments in which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Corporation’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which consists of an internal team of the Corporation’s executive directors including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Wealth Officer.  The Company’s reportable operating segments include community banking and wealth management.  The CODM regularly makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assesses performance based on the financial results of these segments.  Refer to Note 20, Segment Reporting, for further discussion.

Stock Repurchases

Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, shares of capital stock that are repurchased are cancelled and treated as authorized but unissued shares. When a share of capital stock is repurchased, the payment of the repurchase price reduces stated capital by the par value of that share (currently, $0.01 for common stock), and any excess over par value reduces capital surplus.  In 2024, the Corporation repurchased 201,800 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $19.99 per share.  In 2023, the Corporation repurchased 82,098 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $16.79 per share.  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Newly Adopted Pronouncements in 2024

In March 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-02, “Investments- Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323):  Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.”  ASU No. 2023-02 is intended to improve the accounting and disclosures for investment in tax credit structures.  ASU No. 2023-02 allows entities to elect to account for qualifying tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method, regardless of the program giving rise to the related income tax credits.  Previously, this method was only available for qualifying tax equity investments in low-income housing tax credit structures.  ASU No. 2023-02 became effective in 2024 and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In November 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280):  Improvement to Reportable Segment Disclosures.”  ASU No. 2023-07 expands segment disclosure requirements for public entities to require disclosure of significant segment expense and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually.  ASU No. 2023-07 became effective for our annual financial statements in 2024 and will be effective for interim periods starting in fiscal year 2025.  See Note 20, Segment Reporting, for updated disclosures related to ASU No. 2023-07.

Recently issued but not yet effective Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740):  Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.”  ASU 2023-09 requires public business entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about Federal, state, and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold.  ASU No. 2023-09 also requires all entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by Federal, state, and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold, among other things.  ASU No. 2023-09 is effective in 2025 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement- Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40):  Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.”  ASU No. 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities.  ASU No. 2024-03 requires new financial statement disclosures in tabular format, disaggregating information about prescribed categories underlying any relevant income statement expense caption.  The prescribed categories include, among other things, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization.  Additionally, entities must disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses.  ASU No. 2024-03 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning in 2027, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning in 2028, though early adoption and retrospective application is permitted.  ASU No. 2024-03 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

2. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is derived by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and does not include the effect of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings per share is derived by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding common stock equivalents. There were no anti-dilutive shares at December 31, 2024 or 2023.

3. Regulatory Capital Requirements

Banks and holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by Federal banking agencies.  Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators.  Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action.  The net unrealized gain or loss on AFS securities is included in computing regulatory capital.  Management believes that, as of December 31, 2024, the Corporation and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.  

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition.  If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits.  If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required.  As of December 31, 2024, the most recent regulatory notification categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Federal and state banking regulations place certain restrictions on the amount of dividends paid and loans or advances made by the Bank to First United Corporation. The total amount of dividends that may be paid at any date is generally limited to the retained earnings of the Bank, and loans or advances are limited to 10% of the Bank’s capital stock and surplus on a secured basis. In addition, dividends paid by the Bank to First United Corporation would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements.

We adopted CECL effective January 1, 2023 and elected not to implement the regulatory agencies’ capital transition and opted to record the impact to our capital ratios immediately upon implementation.  Effective with the implementation of CECL, a $2.2 million adjustment, net of tax, was made to retained earnings.  The adjustment did not have a material impact to our capital ratios.

Non-accrual loans that have been subject to partial charge-offs totaled $0.7 million at December 31, 2024 and $0.1 million at December 31, 2023.  Loans secured by 1-4 family residential real estate properties in the process of foreclosure totaled $1.6 million at December 31, 2024 and $1.8 million at December 31, 2023.  

A loan that is considered a non-accrual or modified loan may be subject to the individually evaluated loan analysis if the commitment is $0.1 million or greater; otherwise, the modified loan remains in the appropriate segment in the ACL model and associated reserves are adjusted based on changes in the discounted cash flows resulting from the modification of the modified loan.  For a discussion with respect to reserve calculations regarding individually evaluated loans, refer to the “Nonrecurring Loans” section in Note 17, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

The Corporation maintains an ACL at a level determined to be adequate to absorb expected credit losses associated with the Corporation’s financial instruments over the life of those instruments as of the balance sheet date.  The Corporation develops and documents a systematic ACL methodology based on the following portfolio segments: (i) commercial real estate, (ii) acquisition and development, (iii) commercial and industrial, (iv) residential mortgage, and (v) consumer.  The Corporation’s loan portfolio is segmented by homogeneous loan types that behave similarly to economic cycles.  The following is a discussion of the key risks by portfolio segment that management assesses in preparing the ACL.

Commercial Real Estate- loans are secured by commercial purpose real estate, including both owner-occupied properties and properties obtained for investment purposes, such as hotels, strip malls and apartments.  Operations of the individual projects as well as global cash flows of the debtors are the primary source of repayment of these loans.  The

condition of the local economy is an important indicator of risk, but there are more specific risks depending on the collateral type as well as the business.

Acquisition and Development- loans include both commercial and consumer.  Commercial loans are made to finance construction of buildings or other structures, as well as to finance the acquisition and development of raw land for various purposes.  While the risk of these loans is generally confined to the construction period, if there are problems, the project may not be completed, and as such, may not provide sufficient cash flow on its own to service the debt or have sufficient value in a liquidation to cover the outstanding principal.  The condition of the local economy is an important indicator of risk, but there are also more specific risks depending on the type of project and the experience and resources of the developer.  Consumer loans are made for the construction of residential homes for which a binding sales contract exists and generally are for a period of time sufficient to complete construction.  Residential construction loans to individuals generally provide for the payment of interest only during the construction phase.  Credit risk for residential real estate construction loans can arise from construction delays, cost overruns, failure of the contractor to complete the project to specifications and economic conditions that could impact demand for supply of the property being constructed.

Commercial and Industrial- loans are made to operating companies or manufacturers for the purpose of production, operating capacity, accounts receivable, inventory or equipment financing.  Cash flow from the operations of the borrower is the primary source of repayment for these loans.  The condition of the local economy is an important indicator of risk, but there are also more specific risks depending on the industry of the borrower.  Collateral for these types of loans often do not have sufficient value in a distressed or liquidation scenario to satisfy the outstanding debt.  These loans are also made to local municipalities for various purposes including refinancing existing obligations, infrastructure up-fit and expansion, or to purchase new equipment.  The primary repayment source for local municipalities includes the tax base of the municipality, specific revenue streams related to the infrastructure financed, and other business operations of the municipal authority.  The health and stability of state and local economies directly impacts each municipality’s tax basis and are important indicators of risk for this segment.  The ability of each municipality to increase taxes and fees to offset service requirements give this type of loan a very low risk profile in the continuum of the Corporation’s loan portfolio.

Residential Mortgage- loans are secured by first and second liens such as home equity lines of credit and 1-4 family residential mortgages.  The primary source of repayment for these loans is the income of the borrower.  The condition of the local economy, in particular the unemployment rate, is an important indicator of risk for this segment.  The state of the local housing market can also have a significant impact on this segment because low demand and/or declining home values can limit the ability of borrowers to sell a property and satisfy debt.

Consumer- loans are made to individuals and may be either secured by assets other than real estate or unsecured.  This segment includes automobile loans and unsecured loans and lines of credit.  The primary source of repayment for these loans is the income and assets of the borrower.  The condition of the local economy, in particular the unemployment rate, is an important indicator of risk for this segment.  The value of the collateral, if there is any, is less likely to be a source of repayment due to less certain collateral values.

The Corporation’s methodology for estimating the ACL includes:

Segmentation.  The Corporation’s loan portfolio is segmented by homogeneous loan types that behave similarly to economic cycles.

Specific Analysis.  A specific reserve analysis is applied to certain individually evaluated loans.  These loans are evaluated quarterly generally based on collateral value, observable market value or the present value of expected future cash flows.  A specific reserve is established if the fair value is less than the loan balance.  A charge-off is recognized when the loss is quantifiable.  Individually evaluated loans not specifically analyzed reside in the Quantitative Analysis.

Quantitative Analysis.  The Corporation elected to use discounted cash flows.  Economic forecasts include but are not limited to unemployment, the Consumer Price Index, the Housing Affordability Index, and Gross State Product.  These forecasts are assumed to revert to the long-term average and are utilized in the model to estimate the probability of default and the loss given default is the estimated loss rate, which varies over time.  The estimated loss rate is applied within the appropriate periods in the cash flow model to determine the net present value.  Net present value is also impacted by assumption related to the duration between default and recovery.  The reserve is based on the difference between the summation of the principal balances taking amortized costs into consideration and the summation of the net present values.

Qualitative Analysis.  Based on management’s review and analysis of internal, external and model risks, management may adjust the model output.  Management reviews the peaks and troughs of the model’s calibrations, taking into account economic forecasts to develop guardrails that serve as the basis for determining the reasonableness of the model’s output and makes adjustments as necessary.  This process challenges unexpected variability resulting from outputs beyond the model’s calibrations that appear to be unreasonable.  Management also enhances the calculation through the use of Moody’s economic forecast data in its calculation. Additionally, management may adjust the economic forecast if it is incompatible with known market conditions based on management’s experience and perspective.

The Corporation has elected to forecast the first four quarters of the credit loss estimate and revert on a straight-line basis as permitted in ASC 326-20-30-9.  Based on the final values in the forecast and the uncertainty of a post-pandemic recovery, management has elected to revert over eight quarters.  By reverting these modeling inputs to their historical mean and considering loan/borrower specific attributes, our models are intended to yield a measurement of expected credit losses that reflects our average historical loss rates for periods subsequent to the reversion period.  

The ACL is based on estimates, and actual losses may vary from current estimates.  Management believes that the granularity of the homogeneous pools and the related historical loss ratios and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ACL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the portfolio at any given date.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Corporation’s portfolio grading analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements as scheduled or at all.  The Corporation’s internal credit risk grading system is based on debt service coverage, collateral values and other subjective factors.  Mortgage and consumer loans are defaulted to pass grade until a loan migrates to past due status.  

The Corporation has a loan review policy and annual scope report that details the level of loan review for loans in a given year.  The annual loan review provides the Credit Risk Committee with an independent analysis of the following:  (i) credit quality of the loan portfolio, (ii) compliance with loan policy, (iii) adequacy of documentation in credit files and (iv) validity of risk ratings.  

The Corporation’s internally assigned grades are as follows:

Pass- The Corporation uses six grades of pass, including its watch rating.  Generally, a pass rating indicates that the loan is currently performing and is of high quality.

Special Mention- Assets with potential weaknesses that warrant management’s close attention and if left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard-  Assets that are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any.  Assets so classified have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt.  Such assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful- Assets with all weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently known facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss- Assets considered of such little value that its continuance on the books is not warranted.  This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

The ability of borrowers to repay commercial loans is dependent upon the success of their business and general economic conditions.  Due to the greater potential for loss within our commercial portfolio, we monitor the commercial loan portfolio through an internal risk rating system.  Loan risk ratings are assigned based upon the creditworthiness of the borrower and are reviewed on an ongoing basis according to our internal policies.  Loans rated special mention or substandard have potential or well-defined weaknesses not generally found in high quality, performing loans, and require attention from management to limit loss.

The following tables present loan balances by year of origination and internally assigned risk ratings for our portfolio segments as of dates presented:

Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

The Corporation evaluates all loan modifications according to the accounting guidance in ASU No. 2022-02 to determine if the modification results in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan.  Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties that result in a direct change in the timing or amount of contractual cash flows include situations where there is principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, term extensions, or combinations of the listed modifications.  Therefore, the disclosures related to loan restructurings are for modifications which have a direct impact on cash flows.

The Corporation may offer various types of modifications when restructuring a loan.  Commercial and industrial loans modified in a loan restructuring often involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, and converting credit lines to term loans.  Additional collateral, a co-borrower, or a guarantor is often requested.

Commercial mortgage and construction loans modified in a loan restructuring often involve reducing the interest rate for the remaining term of the loan, extending the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, or substituting or adding a new borrower or guarantor.  Construction loans modified in a loan restructuring may also involve extending the interest-only payment period.

Loans modified in a loan restructuring for the Corporation may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan.  An allowance for loans that have been modified in a loan restructuring is measured based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs, if the loan is collateral dependent.  Management exercises significant judgment in developing these estimates.

Commercial and consumer loans modified in a loan restructuring are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future default.  If loans modified in a loan restructuring subsequently default, the Corporation evaluates the loan for possible further loss.  The allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the allowance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan.

The following table presents the amortized cost basis, and the financial effect of loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the year ended December 31, 2024.  There were no modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the year ended December 31, 2023.

During 2024, we modified the term of two loans by extending their maturity dates.  The Corporation monitors loan payments on performing and non-performing loans on an ongoing basis to determine if a loan is considered to have a payment default.  The loans that were modified in the year ended December 31, 2024 have made all contractual payments since modification.  The loan modifications reported above did not significantly impact our determination of the allowance for credit losses on loans during 2024.

If a modified loan with an outstanding balance of  $0.1 million or greater subsequently defaults and goes on non-accrual status, then the Corporation individually evaluates the loan when performing its CECL estimate to calculate the ACL.  Upon determination that a modified loan (or a portion of a modified loan) has subsequently been deemed

uncollectible, the loan (or portion of the loan) is charged off.  Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the ACL is adjusted by the same amount.

In March 2004, Trust I and Trust II issued preferred securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $30.0 million to third-party investors and issued common equity with an aggregate liquidation amount of $0.9 million to First United Corporation. These Trusts used the proceeds of these offerings to purchase an equal amount of junior subordinated debentures (“TPS Debentures”), as follows:

$20.6 million—floating rate payable quarterly based on three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 275 basis points (7.36% at December 31, 2024), maturing in 2034, became redeemable five years after issuance at First United Corporation’s option.

$10.3 million—floating rate payable quarterly based on three-month SOFR plus 275 basis points (7.36% at December 31, 2024) maturing in 2034, became redeemable five years after issuance at First United Corporation’s option.

The TPS Debentures issued to each of the Trusts represent the sole assets of that Trust, and payments of the TPS Debentures by First United Corporation are the only sources of cash flow for the Trust. First United Corporation has the right, without triggering a default, to defer interest on all of the TPS Debentures for up to 20 quarterly periods, in which case distributions on the preferred securities will also be deferred. Should this occur, the Corporation may not pay dividends or distributions on, or repurchase, redeem or acquire any shares of its capital stock.

The contractual maturities of the FHLB advances outstanding at December 31, 2024 are $25.0 million on September 19, 2025 and $65.0 million on March 20, 2026.  The contractual maturities of the junior subordinated debt outstanding at December 31, 2024 is 2034.

The Bank has a borrowing capacity agreement with the FHLB in an amount equal to 30% of the Bank’s assets. The available line of credit equaled $567.4  million at December 31, 2024 and $571.4 million at December 31, 2023. This

line of credit, which can be used for both short and long-term funding, can only be utilized to the extent of available collateral. The line is secured by certain qualified mortgage, commercial and home equity loans as follows (in thousands):

In assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income of the appropriate character (for example, ordinary income or capital gain) within the carry-back or carry-forward period available under the tax law during the periods in which temporary differences are deductible. The Corporation has considered future market growth, forecasted earnings, future taxable income, and feasible and permissible tax planning strategies in determining whether it will be able to realize the deferred tax asset. If the Corporation were to determine that it will not be able to realize a portion of its net deferred tax asset in the future for which there is currently no valuation allowance, an adjustment to the net deferred tax asset would be charged to earnings in the period such determination was made. Conversely, if the Corporation were to make a

determination that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets for which there is a valuation allowance will be realized, the related valuation allowance would be reduced, and a benefit would be recorded.

At December 31, 2024, the Corporation had Maryland net operating losses (“NOLs”) and other MD carryforwards of $36.3 million for which a deferred tax asset of $2.4 million has been recorded. There has been and continues to be a full valuation allowance on these NOLs based on management’s belief that it is more likely than not that these NOLs will not be realized prior to the expiration of their carry-forward periods because the Corporation will not generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully utilize the NOLs. The valuation allowance was $2.6 million at December 31, 2024 and $2.8 million at December 31, 2023.

The Corporation and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states jurisdictions.  The 2021-2023 tax years remain open under the standard statute of limitations.  Also, with few exceptions, the Corporation is no longer subject to state income tax examinations for tax years before 2021.  Management has identified no uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2024.

Any interest and penalties on income tax assessments or income tax refunds are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a components of interest expense (income) and other operating expense.

13. Equity Compensation Plans

At the 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, First United Corporation’s shareholders approved the First United Corporation 2018 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Equity Plan”) which authorizes the issuance of up to 325,000 shares of common stock to employees, directors, and qualifying consultants pursuant to stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, dividend equivalents, and other stock-based awards.

The Corporation complies with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Compensation- Stock Compensation, in measuring and disclosing stock compensation cost.  The measurement objective in ASC Paragraph 718-10-30-6 requires public companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award.  The cost is recognized in expense over the period in which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period).

Pursuant to our director compensation policy, each director receives an annual retainer of 1,000 shares of First United Corporation common stock, plus $15,000 to be paid, at the director’s election, in cash or additional shares of common stock.  In May 2024, a total of 14,325 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to directors, which had a grant date fair value of $21.94 per share.  In May 2023, a total of 16,931 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to directors, which had a grant date fair value of $13.23 per share.  In January 2023, a total of 333 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to a new director, which had a grant date fair value of $19.36 per share.  In October 2023, a total of 852 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to a new director, which had a grant date fair value of $16.26 per share.  Director stock compensation expense was $292,109 for the year ended December 31, 2024 and $255,937 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Employee stock compensation was $54,226 and $33,279 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”)

On March 26, 2020, pursuant to the Corporation’s Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"), which is a sub-plan of the Equity Plan, the Compensation Committee of First United Corporation’s Board of Directors (the "Committee") granted RSUs to the Corporation’s principal executive officer, its principal financial officer, and certain of its other

executive officers. An RSU contemplates the issuance of shares of common stock of First United Corporation if and when the RSU vests.

The RSUs granted to each of the foregoing officers consist of (i) a performance vesting award for a three-year performance period and (ii) a time-vesting award that will vest ratably over a three-year period. Target performance levels were set based on the annual budget which supports the Corporation’s long-term objective of achieving high performance as compared to peers. Threshold performance is the minimum level of acceptable performance as defined by the Committee and maximum performance represented a level potentially achievable under ideal circumstances. Achievement of the threshold performance level would result in each executive participant earning a payout at 50% of his or her respective target award opportunity. Achievement of the target performance level would result in the executive participant earning the target award and achievement at or above the maximum performance level would result in the executive participant earning 150% of the target opportunity. Actual results for any goal that falls between performance levels would be interpolated to calculate a proportionate award.  For each of the performance periods ending December 31, 2023 through December 31, 2025, the RSUs performance goals are based on earnings per share and growth in tangible book value.  For the performance periods ending December 31, 2026, the RSUs performance goals are based on return on average equity and growth in tangible book value.

To receive any shares under an RSU, a grantee must be employed by the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries on the applicable vesting date, except that a grantee whose employment terminates prior to such vesting date due to death, disability or retirement will be entitled to a pro-rated portion of the shares subject to the RSUs, assuming that, in the case of performance-vesting RSUs, the performance goals had been met at their "target" levels.

In the first quarter of 2020, RSUs were granted relating to (i) 9,791 performance-vesting shares (target level) for the performance period ending December 31, 2021 (the “2019 LTIP year”) and (ii) 10,143 performance-vesting shares and 5,070 time-vesting shares (target level) for the performance period ending December 31, 2022 (the “2020 LTIP year”).  Each RSU had a grant date fair market value of $12.54 per share of common stock underlying the RSU.  The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three-year period that began on March 26, 2021.  On March 9, 2022, 14,688 shares subject to RSUs granted for the 2019 LTIP year were issued at maximum performance level. On March 8, 2023, 15,216 shares subject to RSUs granted for the 2020 LTIP year were issued at maximum performance.  On March 26, 2021, 1,690 of the 5,070 time-vesting shares were issued to participants.  On March 28, 2022, 1,688  shares of the 3,380 remaining time-vesting shares were issued to participants.  On March 26, 2023, 1,692 shares of the remaining time-vesting shares were issued to participants.  Stock compensation expense was $15,896 for the year ended December 31, 2023.  All compensation expense related to the 2019 LTIP year was recognized as of March 31, 2022.  All compensation expense related to the 2020 LTIP plans was recognized as of March 31, 2023.

In May 2021, RSUs relating to 7,389 performance-vesting shares and 3,693 time-vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2021 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $17.93 per share of common stock underlying each RSU.  The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs is the three-year period ending December 31, 2023.  On March 9, 2024, it was determined that 7,389 performance-vesting RSUs failed to vest.  The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three-year period beginning on May 5, 2022. On May 5, 2022, 1,230 shares of the 3,693 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants.  On May 5, 2023, 1,230 shares of the remaining 2,463 time-vesting shares were issued to the participants.  On May 5, 2024, the remaining 1,233 shares of the 3,693 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants.  Net stock compensation expense/(credit) was $7,365 and ($51,555) for the years ended December 2024 and 2023.  All compensation expense related to the 2021 LTIP plans were recognized as of June 30, 2024

In March 2022, RSUs relating to 8,096 performance-vesting shares and 6,238 time-vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2022 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $21.88 per share of common stock underlying each RSU.  The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs is the three-year period ending December 31, 2024.  The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three-year period beginning on March 9, 2023.  On March 9, 2023, 2,079 shares of the 6,238 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants.  In the third quarter of 2024, it was projected that the performance-vesting shares will fail to vest; therefore, the stock compensation expense was adjusted accordingly. Stock

compensation (credit)/expense was ($57,849) and $104,580 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.  Unrecognized compensation expense as of December 31, 2024 related to unvested units was $11,379.

In March 2023, RSUs relating to 10,214 performance-vesting shares and 7,920 time-vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2023 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $18.25 per share of common stock underlying each RSU.  The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs is the three-year period ending December 31, 2025.  The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three-year period beginning on March 15, 2024.  On March 15, 2024, 2,639 shares of the 7,920 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants.  Stock compensation expense was $110,340 and $82,755 for  the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.  Unrecognized compensation expense as of December 31, 2024 related to unvested units was $137,924.

In May 2024, RSUs relating to 8,593 performance vesting shares and 6,662 time vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2024 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $22.26 per share of common stock underlying each RSU.  The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs is the three-year period ending December 31, 2026.  The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three-year period beginning on May 20, 2025. Stock Compensation expense was $66,066 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Unrecognized compensation expense as of December 31, 2024 related to unvested units was $273,702.

14. Employee Benefit Plans

First United Corporation sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) covering the employees who were hired prior to the freeze and others who were grandfathered into the Pension Plan. The benefits are based on years of service and the employees’ compensation during the last five years of employment.

Effective April 30, 2010, the Pension Plan was amended, resulting in a “soft freeze”, the effect of which prohibits new entrants into the Pension Plan and ceases crediting of additional years of service, after that date. Effective January 1, 2013, the Pension Plan was amended to unfreeze it for those employees for whom the sum of (i) their ages, at their closest birthday, plus (ii) years of service for vesting purposes equals 80 or greater. The “soft freeze” continues to apply to all other plan participants.  Pension benefits for these participants will be managed through discretionary contributions to the First United Corporation 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “401(k) Plan”).

During 2001, the Bank established an unfunded Defined Benefit Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“Defined Benefit SERP”). The Defined Benefit SERP is available only to a select group of management or highly compensated employees to provide supplemental retirement benefits in excess of limits imposed on qualified plans by federal tax law.

The benefit obligation activity for both the Pension Plan and Defined Benefit SERP was calculated using an actuarial measurement date of January 1. Plan assets and the benefit obligations were calculated using an actuarial measurement date of December 31.

On January 9, 2015, First United Corporation and members of management who do not participate in the Defined Benefit SERP entered into participation agreements under the Deferred Compensation Plan, each styled as a Defined Contribution SERP Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”). Pursuant to each Contribution Agreement, First United Corporation agreed, for each Plan Year (as defined in the Deferred Compensation Plan) in which it determines that it has been Profitable (as defined in the Contribution Agreement), to make a discretionary contribution to the participant’s Employer Account in an amount equal to 15% of the participant’s base salary level for such Plan Year, with the first Plan Year being the year ending December 31, 2015. The Contribution Agreement provides that the participant will become 100% vested in the amount maintained in his or her Employer Account upon the earliest to occur of the following events: (i) Normal Retirement (as defined in the Contribution Agreement); (ii)  Separation from Service (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) following a Change of Control (as defined in the Deferred Compensation Plan) and subsequent Triggering Event (as defined in the Contribution Agreement); (iii) Separation from Service due to a Disability (as defined in the Contribution Agreement); (iv) with respect to a particular award of Employer Contribution Credits, the participant’s

completion of two consecutive Years of Service (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) immediately following the Plan Year for which such award was made; or (v) death. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a participant will lose entitlement to the amount maintained in his or her Employer Account in the event employment is terminated for Cause (as defined in the Contribution Agreement). In addition, the Contribution Agreement conditions entitlement to the amounts held in the Employer Account on the participant (a) refraining from engaging in Competitive Employment (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) for three years following his or her Separation from Service, (b) refraining from injurious disclosure of confidential information concerning the Corporation, and (c) remaining available, at the First United Corporation’s reasonable request, to provide at least six hours of transition services per month for 12 months following his or her Separation from Service (except in the case of death or Disability), except that only item (b) will apply in the event of a Separation from Service following a Change of Control and subsequent Triggering Event.

In January 2022, the Board of Directors approved discretionary contributions to three participants totaling $103,689.  The Corporation recorded $51,844 of related compensation expense for 2023 related to these contributions.  In January 2023, the Board of Directors approved discretionary contributions to three participants totaling $108,184.  The Corporation recorded $54,092 of related compensation expense for both 2024 and 2023.  In January 2024, the Board of Directors approved discretionary contributions to three participants totaling $114,958.  The Corporation recorded $57,479 of related compensation expense for 2024.  Each discretionary contribution has a two-year vesting period.

The accumulated benefit obligation for the Pension Plan was $35.3 million and $38.3 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The accumulated benefit obligation for the Defined Benefit SERP was $8.2 million and $8.3 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The investment assets of a defined benefit plan are managed with the goal of providing for retiree distributions while also supporting long-term plan obligations with a moderate level of portfolio risk. To address the variability over time of both risk and return, the plan investment strategy entails a dynamic approach to asset allocation, providing for normalized targets for major asset classes, with the ability to tactically adjust within the following specified ranges around those targets.

Range

Fixed Income

Equities

45% - 65%

Decisions regarding tactical adjustments within the above noted ranges for asset classes are based on a top-down review of factors expected to have material impact on the risk and reward dynamics of the portfolio as a whole. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

Anticipated domestic and international economic growth as a whole;
The position of the economy within its longer term economic cycle; and
The expected impact of economic vitality, cycle positioning, financial market risks, industry/demographic trends and political forces on the various market sectors and investment styles.

With respect to individual company securities, additional company specific matters are considered, which could include management track record and guidance, future earnings expectations, current relative price expectations and the impact of identified risks on expected performance, among others. A core equity position of large cap stocks will be maintained, with more aggressive or volatile sectors meaningfully represented in the asset mix in pursuit of higher returns.

Strategic and specific investment decisions are guided by an in-house investment committee as well as a number of outside institutional resources that provide economic, industry and company data and analytics. It is management’s intent to give the Pension Plan’s investment managers flexibility with respect to investment decisions and their timing within the overall guidelines. However, certain investments require specific review and approval by management. Management is also informed of anticipated changes in nonproprietary investment managers, significant modifications of any previously approved investment, or the anticipated use of derivatives to execute investment strategies.

Portfolio risk is managed in large part by a focus on diversification across multiple levels as well as an emphasis on financial strength. For example, current investment policies restrict initial investments in debt securities to be rated investment grade at the time of purchase. Also, with the exception of the highest rated securities (e.g., U.S. Treasury or government-backed agency securities), no more than 10% of the portfolio may be invested in a single entity’s securities. As a result of the previously noted approaches to controlling portfolio risk, any concentrations of risk would be associated with general systemic risks faced by industry sectors or the portfolio as a whole.

Assets in the Pension Plan are valued by the Corporation’s accounting system provider who utilizes a third-party pricing service. Valuation data is based on actual market data for stocks and mutual funds (Level 1) and matrix pricing for bonds (Level 2). Cash and cash equivalents are also considered Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.

As of December 31, 2024, the 25-year average return on pension portfolio assets was 6.86%, exceeding the expected long-term return of 6.50% utilized for 2024.  Considering that future equity returns are partially a function of current starting valuations and the general level of interest rates, return expectations by market analysts have risen due to the large equity pullback and interest rates rising to multiyear highs.  With equity valuations near historical averages and the monetary policy normalization process likely being near conclusion, it is considered appropriate to maintain the expected long-term rate of return of 6.50% for 2025.

401(k) Profit Sharing Plan

15. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan

In furtherance of First United Corporation’s belief that every employee should have the ability to accrue retirement benefits, it adopted the 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, which is available to all employees, including executive officers. Employees are automatically entered in the plan on the first of the month following completion of 30 days of service to First United Corporation and/or its subsidiaries. Employees have the opportunity to opt out of participation or change their deferral amounts under the plan at any time. In addition to contributions by participants, the plan contemplates employer matching and the potential of discretionary contributions to the accounts of participants. First United Corporation believes that matching contributions encourage employees to participate and thereby plan for their post-retirement financial future. Beginning with the 2008 plan year, First United Corporation enhanced the match formula to 100% on the first 1% of salary reduction and 50% on the next 5% of salary reduction. This match is accrued for all participants, including executive officers, immediately upon entering the plan on the first day of the month following the completion of 30 days of employment.  Additionally, First United Corporation accrued a non-elective employer contribution during 2024 for all employees other than employees who participate in the Defined Benefit SERP and Defined Contribution SERP and those employees meeting the age plus service requirement in the Pension Plan equal to 4.0% of each employee’s salary, and 0.5% of each employee’s salary hired before January 1, 2010, which will be paid in the first quarter of 2025. The employee must be a plan participant and be actively employed on the last day of the plan year to share in the

discretionary profit sharing contribution, except in the case of death, disability, or retirement of the participant.  Expense charged to operations for the 401(k) Plan was $1.4 million in 2024 and 2023.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party to support contractual obligations and to ensure job performance. Generally, the Bank’s letters of credit are issued with expiration dates within one year. Historically, most letters of credit expire unfunded, and therefore, cash requirements are substantially less than the total commitment. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank generally holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting letters of credit.

17. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Corporation complies with the guidance of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. The Corporation also follows the guidance on matters relating to all financial instruments found in ASC Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments – Overall.

Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants as of the measurement date. Fair value is best determined by values quoted through active trading markets. Active trading markets are characterized by numerous transactions of similar financial instruments between willing buyers and willing sellers. Because no active trading market exists for various types of financial instruments, many of the fair values disclosed were derived using present value discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques described below. As a result, the Corporation’s ability to actually realize these derived values cannot be assumed.

The Corporation measures fair values based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC Paragraph 820-10-35-37. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value under the hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets and liabilities. This level is the most reliable source of valuation.

Level 2: Quoted prices that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates and yield curves at commonly quoted intervals, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default rates). It also includes inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs). Several sources are utilized for valuing these assets, including a contracted valuation service, Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) evaluations and pricing services, and other valuation matrices.

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the valuation assumptions and not readily observable in the market (i.e. supported with little or no market activity). Level 3 instruments are valued based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed, and consider risk premiums that a market participant would require.

The level established within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Transfers in and out of Level 1, 2 or 3 are recorded at fair value at the beginning of the reporting period.

Investments – The investment portfolio is classified and accounted for based on the guidance of ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.

The fair value of investments available-for-sale is determined using a market approach. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the U.S. Government agencies and treasuries, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, and municipal bonds segments are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. Their fair values were determined based upon market-corroborated inputs and valuation matrices, which were obtained through third party data service providers or securities brokers through which we have historically transacted both purchases and sales of investment securities.

Derivative financial instruments (cash flow hedge) – The Corporation’s open derivative positions are interest rate swap agreements. Those classified as Level 2 open derivative positions are valued using externally developed pricing models based on observable market inputs provided by a third party and validated by management.  The Corporation has considered counterparty credit risk in the valuation of its interest rate swap assets.

Individually evaluated loans – Loans included in the table below are those that are considered individually evaluated with a specific allocation or with partial charge-offs, based upon the guidance of the loan impairment subsection of the Receivables Topic, ASC Section 310-10-35, under which the Corporation has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value consists of the loan balance less its valuation allowance and is generally determined based on independent third-party appraisals of the collateral or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

Equity investments- Equity investments included in the table below are considered are recorded with a write-down to fair value recorded in other operating expenses.  Fair value of the equity investment was based on an independent third-party valuation report where the value was determined based on the revenue multiples of like kind information technology businesses.  These assets are included as Level 3 fair values based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

Other real estate owned – OREO included in the table below are recorded with specific write-downs. Fair value of other real estate owned was based on independent third-party appraisals of the properties. These values were determined based on the sales prices of similar properties in the approximate geographic area. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

The fair values disclosed may vary significantly between institutions based on the estimates and assumptions used in the various valuation methodologies. The derived fair values are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and significant judgment. Therefore, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in the assumptions could significantly impact the derived estimates of fair value. Disclosure of non-financial assets such as buildings as well as certain financial instruments such as leases is not required. Accordingly, the aggregate fair values presented do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.

The following table presents fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the statement of financial condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

18. Derivative Financial Instruments

As a part of managing interest rate risk, the Corporation entered into interest rate swap agreements to modify the re-pricing characteristics of certain interest-bearing liabilities. The Corporation has designated its interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges under the guidance of ASC Subtopic 815-30, Derivatives and Hedging – Cash Flow Hedges. Cash flow hedges have the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative, net of taxes, recorded in net accumulated other comprehensive income.

In March 2016, the Corporation entered into four interest rate swap contracts totaling $30.0 million notional amount, hedging future cash flows associated with floating rate trust preferred debt. As of December 31, 2024, $15.0 million notional amount remains.   The interest rate swap creates an effective fixed interest rate of 4.65% on the $15.0 million notional amount of the Corporation’s junior subordination debt until the interest rate swap’s maturity in March 2026.

The fair value of the interest rate swap contracts was $0.5 million and $0.8 million at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Corporation recorded a decrease in the value of the derivatives of $0.3 million and the related deferred tax of $0.1 million in net accumulated other comprehensive loss to reflect the effective portion of cash flow hedges. ASC Subtopic 815-30 requires the net accumulated other comprehensive loss to be reclassified to earnings if the hedge becomes ineffective or is terminated. There was no hedge ineffectiveness recorded for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Corporation does not expect any material losses relating to these hedges to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

Interest rate swap agreements are entered into with counterparties that meet established credit standards, and the Corporation believes that the credit risk inherent in these contracts is not significant at December 31, 2024.

The table below discloses the impact of derivative financial instruments on the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

19. Revenue Recognition

ASC Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. ASC Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest revenue streams such as wealth management, including trust and brokerage services, service charges on deposit accounts, interchange fee income – debit card income and gains/losses on OREO sales. Noninterest revenue streams in-scope of ASC Topic 606 are discussed below.

Wealth Management – Trust and Brokerage

Trust and asset management income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and other customer assets. The Corporation’s performance obligation is generally satisfied over time, and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon the month-end market value of the assets under management and the applicable fee rate. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. Optional services such as real estate sales and tax return preparation services are also available to existing trust and asset management customers. The Corporation’s performance obligation for these transactional-based services is generally satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time (i.e., as incurred). Payment is received shortly after services are rendered.

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

Service charges on deposit accounts consist of account analysis fees (i.e., net fees earned on analyzed business and public checking accounts), monthly service fees, check orders, and other deposit account related fees. The Corporation’s performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Check orders and other deposit account related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Corporation’s performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

Other Service Charges

Fees, exchange, and other service charges are primarily comprised of ATM fees, loan servicing fees and other service charges. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Bank cardholder uses a non-Bank ATM, or a non-Bank cardholder uses a Bank ATM.  Loan servicing fees are comprised of fees earned on servicing of loan portfolios sold to the secondary market.  Other service charges include revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier’s checks, and other services.   The Corporation’s performance obligation for fees, exchange, and other service charges are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion.

Interchange Fees – Debit and Credit Card Income

Debit and credit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Corporation’s debit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.

The following presents noninterest income, segregated by revenue streams in-scope and out-of-scope of ASC Topic 606, for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

20. Segment Reporting

The Corporation is managed under an organizational structure that conducts business in two primary operating segments:  (i) Community Banking and (ii) Wealth Management.  The Corporation is primarily managed based on the line of business structure.  In that regard, the Corporation provides the same lines of business, which have the same product and service offerings, have similar types and classes of customers and utilize similar service delivery methods across our entire geographic footprint.  Pricing guidelines for products and services are across all regions.  Community Banking and Trust and Investment Services are delineated by the products and services that each segment offers.  

Business activity for the operating segments are as follows:

Community Banking:  The Community Banking segment is conducted through the Bank and involves delivering a broad range of financial products and services, including various loan and deposit products, to consumer, business, and not-for-profit customers.  Parent company income and assets are included in the Community Banking segment, as the majority of parent company functions are related to this segment.  Major revenue sources include net interest income, gains on sales of mortgage loans, and service charges on deposit accounts.  Expenses include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, data processing, FDIC premiums, marketing, equipment, and other expenses.  

Wealth Management:  The Wealth Management segment is conducted through the Bank and offers corporate trustee services, trust and estate administration, IRA administration and custody services.  Revenues for this segment is generated from administration, service and custody fees, brokerage commissions, and management fees that are derived from Assets Under Management.  Expenses include personnel, occupancy, data processing, marketing, equipment, and other expenses.  

The accounting policies of each reportable segment are the same as those of our consolidated entity except that expenses for consolidated back-office operations and general overhead-type expenses such as executive administration, accounting, information technology and human resources are recorded in the Community Banking segment and reimbursed by the Wealth Management segment through a monthly management fee based on estimated uses of those services.

An internal team of the Corporation’s executive directors including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Wealth Officer serve as the Corporation’s CODM.  The CODM reviews actual net income verses budgeted net income to assess segment performance on a monthly basis and to make decisions about allocating capital and personnel to the segments.

Financial results by operating segment, including significant expense categories provided to the CODM are detailed below.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.  The Trust and Investment Services segment excludes off-balance-sheet assets under management with a total fair value of $1.7 billion and $1.5 billion at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Information for the operating segments for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 are presented in the following tables:

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]

Risk Management Strategy

Our risk management program is designed to identify, assess, and mitigate risks across various aspects of the Corporation, including financial, operational, reputational, and legal.  Cybersecurity is a critical component of this program, given the increasing reliance on technology and potential of cyber threats.  Our Cyber Security Initiative (“CSI”) committee led by our Information Security Officer is primarily responsible for this cybersecurity component and is a key member of the risk management organization.  The Information Security Officer reports directly to the Managing Director of Operations and, as discussed below, regularly to the Risk and Compliance Committee of our board of directors.  

Our objective for managing cybersecurity risk is to avoid or minimize the impacts of external threat events or other efforts to penetrate, disrupt or misuse our systems or information.  The structure of our information security program is designed around the Cyber Risk Institute’s cybersecurity profile designed specifically for the financial services industry, regulatory guidance, and other industry standards.  In addition, we leverage certain industry and government associations, third-party benchmarking, audits, and threat intelligence feeds to facilitate and promote program effectiveness.  Our Information Security Officer, along with key members of our risk team, regularly collaborate with peer banks, industry groups, and policymakers to discuss cybersecurity trends and issues and identify best practices.  The information security program is periodically reviewed by such personnel with the goal of addressing changing threats and conditions.

We employe an in-depth, layered, defensive strategy that embraces a “trust by design” philosophy when designing new products, services, and technology.  We leverage people, processes, and technology as part of our efforts to manage and maintain cybersecurity controls.  We also employe a variety of preventative and detective tools designed to monitor, block, and provide alerts regarding suspicious activity, as well as to report on suspected advanced persistent threats.  We have established processes and systems designed to mitigate cyber risk, including regular and on-going education and training for employees, preparedness simulations and tabletop exercises, and recovery and resilience tests.  We engage in regular assessments of our infrastructure, software systems, and network architecture, using internal cybersecurity experts, penetration testers, and third-party specialists.  We also maintain a third-party risk management program designed to identify, assess, and manage risks, including cybersecurity risks, associated with external service providers and our supply chain.  We also actively monitor our email gateways for malicious phishing email campaigns and monitor remote connections as a significant portion of our workforce has the option to work remotely.  We have optimized our vulnerability management program that scans devices every four hours, and we have strict key performance metrics to ensure vulnerabilities are remediated quickly.  We leverage internal and external auditors and independent external partners to periodically review our processes, systems, and controls, including with respect to our information security program, to assess their design and operating effectiveness and make recommendations to strengthen our risk management program.

We maintain an Incident Response Plan that provides a documented framework for responding to actual or potential cybersecurity incidents, including timely notification of and escalation to the appropriate Board-approved management committees, as discussed further below, and the Risk and Compliance Committee of our board of directors.  The Incident Response Plan is coordinated through the Chief Operating Officer and key members of management are embedded into the Plan by its design. The Incident Response Plan facilitates coordination across multiple parts of our organization and is evaluated at least annually.

Notwithstanding our defensive measures and processes, the threat posed by cyber-attacks is severe.  Our internal systems, processes, and controls are designed to mitigate loss from cyber-attacks and, while we have experienced cybersecurity incidents in the past, to date, risks from cybersecurity threats have not materially affected our Company.  For further discussion of risks from cybersecurity threats, see the section captioned “A disruption, breach, or failure in the operational systems or infrastructure of our third-party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber-attacks, could adversely affect our business” in Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

Business

Business

First United Corporation is a Maryland corporation chartered in 1985 and a financial holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”) under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, that elected financial holding company status in 2021.  The Corporation’s primary business is serving as the parent company of First United Bank & Trust, a Maryland trust company (the “Bank”), First United Statutory Trust I (“Trust I”) and First United Statutory Trust II (“Trust II” and together with Trust I, the “Trusts”), both Connecticut statutory business trusts.  The Trusts were formed for the purpose of selling trust preferred securities that qualified as Tier 1 capital. The Bank has two consumer finance company subsidiaries - OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., a West Virginia corporation, and OakFirst Loan Center, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (together with OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., (the “OakFirst Loan Centers”) - and two subsidiaries that it uses to hold real estate acquired through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure - First OREO Trust, a Maryland statutory trust, and FUBT OREO I, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company. In addition, the Bank owns 99.9% of the limited partnership interests in Liberty Mews Limited Partnership, a Maryland limited partnership formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating low-income housing units in Garrett County, Maryland (“Liberty Mews”), and a 99.9% non-voting membership interest in MCC FUBT Fund, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating low-income housing units in Allegany County, Maryland (the “MCC Fund”).

First United Corporation and its subsidiaries operate principally in four counties in Western Maryland and three counties in West Virginia.

As used in these Notes, the terms “the Corporation”, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean First United Corporation and, unless the context clearly suggests otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The financial information is presented, in all material respects, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with general practices for financial institutions.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with current year classifications.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are normal recurring in nature) that are necessary for a fair statement are reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

In preparing financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of financial statements.  In addition, these estimates and assumptions affect revenues and expenses in the financial statements and as such, actual results could differ from those estimates.  

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation include the accounts of First United Corporation, the Bank, the OakFirst Loan Centers, First OREO Trust and FUBT OREO I, LLC. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk

Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Corporation’s relationships are with customers located in Western Maryland and Northeastern West Virginia.  At December 31, 2024, approximately 6%, or $95.3 million, of total loans were secured by real estate

acquisition, construction and development projects, with $95.2 million performing according to their contractual terms and $0.1 million considered to be individually evaluated loans based on management’s concerns about the borrowers’ ability to comply with present repayment terms. The $0.1 million in individually evaluated loans were all classified as non-accrual as of December 31, 2024.  Additionally, loans collateralized by commercial rental properties represented 21% of the total loan portfolio as of December 31, 2024.  Note 4, Investment Securities, discusses the types of securities in which the Corporation invests and Note 5, Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Loss, discusses the Corporation’s lending activities.

Investments

Investments

The investment portfolio is classified and accounted for based on the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. Securities bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading account securities and reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in net gains/losses in other operating income. Securities purchased with the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity (“HTM”) securities and are recorded at amortized cost. All other investment securities are classified as available-for-sale (“AFS”). These securities are held for an indefinite period of time and may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for liquidity purposes as part of our overall asset/liability management strategy. AFS securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes.

The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for the amortization of premiums to the first call date, if applicable, or to maturity, and for the accretion of discounts to maturity, or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security. Such amortization and accretion is included in interest income from investments. Interest and dividends are included in interest income from investments. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded using the specific identification method.

The Corporation adopted ASC Topic 326 using the prospective transition approach for debt securities for which other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) had been recognized prior to January 1, 2023, such as AFS collateralized debt obligations.  As a result, the amortized cost basis for such debt securities remained the same before and after the effective date of ASC Topic 326.  The effective interest rate on these debt securities was not changed.  Amounts previously written off are recognized in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as of January 1, 2023 relating to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected are accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset.  Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after January 1, 2023 are recorded in earnings when received.

Restricted Investment in Bank Stock

Restricted Investment in Bank Stock

The Corporation owns non-marketable equity securities in a combination of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank and Community Banker’s Bank.  These securities are carried at cost, classified as restricted securities, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value.

The Corporation recognizes dividend income on a cash basis. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, dividends of $302,665 and $198,457, respectively, were recorded in other operating income.

Loans

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or full repayment by the borrower are reported at their unpaid principal balance outstanding, adjusted for any deferred fees or costs pertaining to origination. Loans that management has the intent to sell are reported at the lower of cost or fair value determined on an individual basis.  There were $0.8 million and $0.4 million in loans held for sale at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.  

The segments of the Bank’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance. The commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. Non-owner occupied CRE loans, which include loans secured by non-owner occupied nonfarm nonresidential properties, generally have a greater risk profile than all other CRE loans, which include loans secured by farmland, multifamily structures and owner-occupied commercial structures. The acquisition and development (“A&D”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. One-to-four family residential construction loans are generally made to individuals for the acquisition of and/or construction on a lot or lots on which a residential dwelling is to be built. All other A&D loans are generally made to developers or investors for the purpose of acquiring, developing and constructing residential or commercial structures. These loans have a higher risk profile because the ultimate buyer, once development is completed, is generally not known at the time of the A&D loan. The commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers. The residential mortgage loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes: amortizing term loans, which are primarily first liens, and home equity lines of credit, which are generally second liens. The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans (direct and indirect), student loans and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts.

Management uses a 10-point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due are considered Substandard. Only the portion of a specific allocation of the allowance for credit losses is associated with a pending event that could trigger loss in the short term is classified in the Doubtful category.  It is possible for a loan to be classified as Substandard in the internal risk rating system, but not be individually evaluated under GAAP, due to the broader reach of “well-defined weaknesses” in the application of the Substandard definition.

Interest and Fees on Loans

Interest on loans (other than those on non-accrual status) is recognized based upon the principal amount outstanding.  Loan fees in excess of the costs incurred to originate the loan are recognized as income over the life of the loan utilizing either the interest method or the straight-line method, depending on the type of loan. Generally, fees on loans with a specified maturity date, such as residential mortgages, are recognized using the interest method. Loan fees for lines of credit are recognized using the straight-line method.

A loan is considered to be past due when a payment has not been received for 30 days past its contractual due date. For all loan segments, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection.  Loans that are on a current payment status or past due less than 90 days may be classified as nonaccrual if repayment in full of principal and/or interest is unlikely.  Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Generally, consumer installment loans are not placed on non-accrual status but are charged off after they are 120 days contractually past due. Loans other than consumer installment loans are charged-off based on an evaluation of the facts and circumstances of each individual loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses

An ACL is maintained to absorb losses from the Corporation’s financial assets in accordance with ASC Topic 326:  Financial Instruments- Credit Losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses Policy

The ACL represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb expected losses on outstanding loans at the balance sheet date based on the evaluation of the size and current risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and prepayment experience.  The ACL is measured and recorded upon the initial recognition of a financial asset.  The ACL is reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries of previous losses, and is increased or decreased by a provision for credit losses, which is recorded as a current period operating expense.  

Determination of an appropriate ACL is inherently complex and requires the use of significant and highly subjective estimates.  The reasonableness is reviewed quarterly by management.  

Management believes it uses relevant information available to make determinations about the ACL and that it has established the existing allowance in accordance with GAAP.  However, the determination of the ACL requires significant judgment, and estimates of expected losses in the loan portfolio can vary significantly from the amounts actually observed.  While management uses available information to recognize losses, future additions to the ACL may be necessary based on changes in the loans comprising the portfolio, changes in the current and forecasted economic conditions, changes to the interest rate environment which may directly impact prepayment and curtailment rate assumptions, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.

The adoption of CECL accounting did not result in a significant change to any other credit risk management and monitoring processes, including identification of past due or delinquent borrowers, nonaccrual practices, assessment of modified loans, or charge-off policy.

The ACL on HTM securities is a contra-asset valuation account, calculated in accordance with ASC 326.  Management measures expected credit losses on HTM debt securities on a collective basis by major security type.  Management has elected not to measure an ACL for accrued interest on securities. The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  

Management classifies the HTM portfolio into the following major security types:  securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies and corporations (including U.S. treasuries, agency bonds, and U.S. guaranteed residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and collateralized mortgage obligations), rated municipal securities, and unrated municipal securities.  With regard to securities issued by U.S. government agencies and corporations, it is expected that the securities will not settle 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 ACL has been recorded on these securities.  With regard to securities issued by states and political subdivisions, management considers (i) issuer bond ratings, (ii) historical loss rates for given bond ratings, and (iii) whether issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments under the contractual terms of the securities. Non-rated securities are evaluated internally based on financial performance and expected future cash flows.

Available-for-Sale Securities

For any AFS debt security in an unrealized loss position, the Corporation first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery to its amortized cost basis.  If either criterion regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income.  For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Corporation evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors.  In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors.  If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis

of the security.  If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an ACL is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis.  Any impairment that has not been recorded through the ACL is recognized in OCI.

The Corporation adopted ASC Topic 326 using the prospective transition approach for debt securities for which OTTI had been recognized prior to January 1, 2023, such as AFS collateralized debt obligations.  As a result, the amortized cost basis for such debt securities remained the same before and after the effective date of ASC Topic 326.  The effective interest rate on these debt securities was not changed.  Amounts previously written off are recognized in OCI as of January 1, 2023 relating to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected are accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset.  Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after January 1, 2023 are recorded in earnings when received.

Loans

An ACL is maintained as a valuation account that is deducted from the Corporation’s loan portfolio’s amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans.  Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.  Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off.  

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.  Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses.  Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term as well as for changes in environmental condition, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, or other relevant factors.  

The ACL includes an estimate of credit losses for pooled loans utilizing the Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF”) method.  Reserves for pooled loans are estimated by calculating the amount by which the outstanding principal balance exceeds the current estimate of the present value of future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate.  The ACL also includes an estimate of credit losses related to loans that are individually evaluated, known as Individually Evaluated Loans, or IELs.  Generally, an IEL reserve is calculated as the excess of the loan’s current outstanding principal balance, or general ledger balance if the loan is non-accrual, compared to the estimated fair value of the related collateral, less cost to sell, if any.

Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment if the loan is greater than $500,000 or is part of a relationship that is greater than $750,000 and (i) is either in non-accrual status or (ii) is risk-rated Substandard and is greater than 60 days past due. Loans are considered to be individually evaluated when, based on current information and events, they no longer share the same risk characteristics of other loans within our portfolio. Factors considered by management in evaluating loans include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. The Bank does not separately evaluate individual consumer and residential mortgage loans, unless such loans are part of larger relationship that is individually evaluated; otherwise, loans in these segments are considered individually evaluated when they are classified as non-accrual.

Once the determination has been made that a loan is individually evaluated, the determination of whether a specific allocation of the allowance is necessary is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods: (i) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (ii) the loan’s observable market price; or (iii) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs. The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis, with management utilizing the fair value of collateral or the discounted cash flow method for the analyses. If the fair value of the collateral less selling costs method is utilized for collateral securing

loans in the commercial segments, then an updated external appraisal is ordered on the collateral supporting the loan if the loan balance is greater than $500,000 and the existing appraisal is greater than 18 months old. If the loan balance is less than $500,000, then the estimated fair value of the collateral is determined by adjusting the existing appraisal by the appropriate percentage from an internally prepared appraisal discount grid. This grid considers the age of a third-party appraisal and the geographic region where the collateral is located in order to discount an appraisal. The discount rates in the appraisal discount grid are updated at least annually to reflect the most current knowledge that management has available, including the results of current appraisals. If there is a delay in receiving an updated appraisal or if the appraisal is found to be deficient in our internal appraisal review process and re-ordered, the Bank continues to use a discount factor from the appraisal discount grid based on the collateral location and current appraisal age in order to determine the estimated fair value. If the general market conditions in that geographic market have changed considerably, the property has deteriorated or perhaps lost an income stream, or a recent appraisal for a similar property indicates a significant change, then management may adjust the fair value indicated by the existing appraisal until a new appraisal is obtained. A specific allocation of the ACL is recorded if there is any deficiency in collateral value determined by comparing the estimated fair value to the recorded investment of the loan. When updated appraisals are received and reviewed, adjustments are made to the specific allocation as needed.  

A loan that is considered a non-accrual or modified loan may be subject to the individually evaluated loan analysis if the commitment is $0.1 million or greater; otherwise, the modified loan remains in the appropriate segment in the ACL model and associated reserves are adjusted based on changes in the discounted cash flows resulting from the modification of the modified loan.  For a discussion with respect to reserve calculations regarding individually evaluated loans, refer to the “Nonrecurring Loans” section in Note 17, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.   For a discussion with respect to loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, refer to the “Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty” section in Note 5, Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses.

The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the ACL and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis.

Loan Commitments and Allowance for Credit Loss on Unfunded Commitments

Financial instruments include unfunded commitments such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit issued to meet customer financing needs.  The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for unfunded commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

The Corporation records an ACL on unfunded commitments through a charge to provision for credit loss expense in the Corporation’s Consolidated Statement of Income.  The ACL on unfunded commitments is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the CECL model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur, and is included in the ACL on unfunded commitments as a liability on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Loan Modifications

In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition, management may grant a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider, the related loan is classified as a modified loan.  Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify the loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status.  The Corporation modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing principal forgiveness, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or interest rate reductions.  When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the ACL.  These concessions are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral.   See Note 5, Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses, for more detail related to the accounting of modified loans.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The provision for depreciation for financial reporting has been made by using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 10 to 31.5 years for buildings and three to 20 years for furniture and equipment.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Impairment testing requires that the fair value of each of the Corporation’s reporting units be compared to the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s net assets, including goodwill. If the fair values of the reporting units exceed their book values, no write-down of recorded goodwill is required. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than book value, an expense may be required to write-down the related goodwill to the proper carrying value. Any impairment would be realized through a reduction of goodwill or the intangible and an offsetting charge to non-interest expense. Annually, the Corporation performs an impairment test of goodwill as of December 31 of each year. During the year, any triggering event that occurs may affect goodwill and could require an impairment assessment. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit requires the Corporation to use a degree of subjectivity. The Corporation's annual impairment test of goodwill and other intangible assets did not identify any impairment.

Accounting guidance provides the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights or because the asset is capable of being sold or exchanged either on its own or in combination with a related contract, asset, or liability. Other intangible assets have finite lives and are reviewed for impairment annually. At December 31, 2024, other intangible assets included $0.4 million for the purchase of certain assets from a wealth company and $0.4 million for the purchase of certain assets of a mortgage company.  These assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives either on a straight-line or sum-of-the-years basis over varying periods that initially did not exceed five years.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance ("BOLI")

Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”)

BOLI policies are recorded at their cash surrender values. Changes in the cash surrender values are recorded as other operating income.

Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO")

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less the cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, with any losses charged to the ACL, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Changes in the valuation allowance, sales gains and losses, and revenue and expenses from holding and operating properties are all included in total net OREO expenses.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

First United Corporation and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, the deferred tax liability or asset is determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences) and is measured at the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. A valuation

allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.  Deferred tax expense is determined by the change in the net liability or asset for deferred taxes adjusted for changes in any deferred tax asset valuation allowance, or reserve.  This reserve was based on the portion of the tax asset for which it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized by the Corporation.

A tax provision is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur.  The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examinations for tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.

State corporate income tax returns are filed annually. Federal and state returns may be selected for examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the states where we file, subject to statutes of limitations. At any given point in time, the Corporation may have several years of filed tax returns that may be selected for examination or review by taxing authorities.

Interest and penalties on income taxes are recognized as a component of income tax expense.

Defined Benefit Plans

Defined Benefit Plans

The defined benefit pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits. Under the provisions of ASC Topic 715, the defined benefit pension plan and the supplemental executive retirement plan are recognized as liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, and unrecognized net actuarial losses, prior service costs and a net transition asset are recognized as a separate component of other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Actuarial gains and losses in excess of 10 percent of the greater of plan assets or the pension benefit obligation are amortized over a blend of future service of active employees and life expectancy of inactive participants. Refer to Note 14, Employee Benefit Plans, for a further discussion of the pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan obligations.

Statement of Cash Flows

Statement of Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits in banks in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.  Cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions and interest-bearing deposits in banks.

Trust Assets and Income

Trust Assets and Income

Assets held in an agency or fiduciary capacity are not the Bank’s assets and, accordingly, are not included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Income from the Bank’s trust department represents fees charged to customers and recognized through revenue recognition.  Refer to Note 19, Revenue Recognition, and Note 20, Segment Reporting, for further discussion.

Business Segments

Business Segments

The Corporation operates in two business segments in which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Corporation’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which consists of an internal team of the Corporation’s executive directors including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Wealth Officer.  The Company’s reportable operating segments include community banking and wealth management.  The CODM regularly makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assesses performance based on the financial results of these segments.  Refer to Note 20, Segment Reporting, for further discussion.

Stock Repurchases

Stock Repurchases

Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, shares of capital stock that are repurchased are cancelled and treated as authorized but unissued shares. When a share of capital stock is repurchased, the payment of the repurchase price reduces stated capital by the par value of that share (currently, $0.01 for common stock), and any excess over par value reduces capital surplus.  In 2024, the Corporation repurchased 201,800 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $19.99 per share.  In 2023, the Corporation repurchased 82,098 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $16.79 per share.  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Newly Adopted Pronouncements in 2024

In March 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-02, “Investments- Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323):  Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.”  ASU No. 2023-02 is intended to improve the accounting and disclosures for investment in tax credit structures.  ASU No. 2023-02 allows entities to elect to account for qualifying tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method, regardless of the program giving rise to the related income tax credits.  Previously, this method was only available for qualifying tax equity investments in low-income housing tax credit structures.  ASU No. 2023-02 became effective in 2024 and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In November 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280):  Improvement to Reportable Segment Disclosures.”  ASU No. 2023-07 expands segment disclosure requirements for public entities to require disclosure of significant segment expense and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually.  ASU No. 2023-07 became effective for our annual financial statements in 2024 and will be effective for interim periods starting in fiscal year 2025.  See Note 20, Segment Reporting, for updated disclosures related to ASU No. 2023-07.

Recently issued but not yet effective Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740):  Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.”  ASU 2023-09 requires public business entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about Federal, state, and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold.  ASU No. 2023-09 also requires all entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by Federal, state, and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold, among other things.  ASU No. 2023-09 is effective in 2025 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement- Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40):  Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.”  ASU No. 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities.  ASU No. 2024-03 requires new financial statement disclosures in tabular format, disaggregating information about prescribed categories underlying any relevant income statement expense caption.  The prescribed categories include, among other things, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization.  Additionally, entities must disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses.  ASU No. 2024-03 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning in 2027, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning in 2028, though early adoption and retrospective application is permitted.  ASU No. 2024-03 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Plan modification description       Effective April 30, 2010, the Pension Plan was amended, resulting in a “soft freeze”, the effect of which prohibits new entrants into the Pension Plan and ceases crediting of additional years of service, after that date. Effective January 1, 2013, the Pension Plan was amended to unfreeze it for those employees for whom the sum of (i) their ages, at their closest birthday, plus (ii) years of service for vesting purposes equals 80 or greater. The “soft freeze” continues to apply to all other plan participants.  Pension benefits for these participants will be managed through discretionary contributions to the First United Corporation 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “401(k) Plan”).
