Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2018
Filed March 27, 2019
File No. 001-38149
Dear Sirs:
We received your letter dated May 1, 2019 regarding a specific disclosure on our Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. On page 91 we presented a ratio of adding credit discounts on loans purchased through acquisition to the allowance for loan losses to derive an allowance plus credit-discount to total loans ratio.
Per your request, we will remove this non-GAAP financial measure in future filings.
Please advise any questions or comments regarding this issue.
Thank you,
/s/ David R. Morris
