| ● | Total stockholders’ equity was $276,208,000 at March 31, 2022, down from $301,405,000 at December 31, 2021 and $300,056,000 at March 31, 2021. Within stockholders’ equity, the portion of accumulated other comprehensive loss related to available-for-sale debt securities was $20,492,000 at March 31, 2022, as compared to accumulated other comprehensive income of $4,809,000 at December 31, 2021 and $6,847,000 at March 31, 2021. The decrease in stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2022 related to accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income from available-for-sale debt securities has been caused by recent, significant increases in interest rates. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is excluded from C&N’s regulatory capital ratios.

|---|
| ● | Trust assets under management by C&N’s Wealth Management Group amounted to $1,191,595,000 at March 31, 2022, down 3.4% from $1,232,919,000 at December 31, 2021 and up 4.3% from $1,142,573,000 at March 31, 2021. Fluctuations in values of assets under management reflect the impact of recent high market volatility. |

(a)Tangible common book value per share and tangible common equity as a percentage of tangible assets are non-U.S. GAAP ratios. Management believes this non-GAAP information is helpful in evaluating the strength of the Corporation's capital and in providing an alternative, conservative valuation of the Corporation's net worth. The ratios shown above are based on the following calculations of tangible assets and tangible common equity:
| | | | | | | | | | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total Assets | $ | 2,330,371 | $ | 2,333,595 | | | | ||
| Less: Intangible Assets, Primarily Goodwill | | (55,711) | | (56,222) | | | | ||
| Tangible Assets | | $ | 2,274,660 | | $ | 2,277,373 | | | |
| Total Stockholders' Equity | | $ | 276,208 | | $ | 300,056 | | | |
| Less: Intangible Assets, Primarily Goodwill | | (55,711) | | (56,222) | | | | ||
| Tangible Common Equity (3) | | $ | 220,497 | | $ | 243,834 | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| Common Shares Outstanding, End of Period (4) | | 15,718,723 | | 15,999,814 | | | | ||
| Tangible Common Book Value per Share = (3)/(4) | | $ | 14.03 | | $ | 15.24 | | | |
(b)Capital ratios for the most recent period are estimated.
(c)The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP ratio that is calculated as shown above. For purposes of calculating the efficiency ratio, net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis includes amounts of interest income on tax-exempt securities and loans that have been increased to a fully taxable-equivalent basis, using the Corporation's marginal federal income tax rate of 21%.

He took a<br>complex concept, broke it down, and<br>presented the information in a simple-<br>to-understand way, which led to a high level of engagement from those in attendance.

This<br>constant threat has not changed<br>despite our currency becoming more<br>digitized through mobile and online<br>banking platforms. As business<br>accessibility moves toward a more<br>virtual atmosphere, it’s important for<br>banks to always stay a few steps<br>ahead of cyber criminals.<br>It is universal throughout the entire<br>financial industry that banks devote<br>a large amount of resources to<br>cybersecurity. Jobs and even entire<br>departments whose primary goal<br>is to neutralize the threat of cyber-<br>attacks exist throughout financial<br>institutions. As criminals find new<br>ways to attempt to breach a bank’s<br>infrastructure, information security<br>jobs become more sophisticated in<br>their efforts. These efforts include<br>educating themselves as well as<br>setting up trainings and providing<br>resources that all employees of their<br>organization are required to complete.<br>It is also common practice for banks<br>to share incidents with other financial<br>institutions to help strengthen the<br>industry as a whole, so that all banks<br>can prepare and minimize disruption<br>if similar cyber-attacks take place.<br>Banks are also subject to some of the<br>most rigorous regulatory requirements<br>in any industry. This means that your<br>bank is required by law to meet a<br>certain level of security or it could face<br>stiff fines and penalties. For instance,<br>the multifactor authentication to<br>access your digital banking has been<br>a requirement for financial institutions<br>to force into their online platforms<br>for several years. These regulations<br>are all done in favor of protecting the<br>customer’s money.<br>Many banks, however, go well<br>beyond the minimum regulatory<br>requirements. Providing customers<br>with information, training and<br>resources on cybersecurity is still the<br>best way to keep criminals at bay.<br>Because education is the first and<br>most important piece of thwarting<br>attacks, there will be no shortage of<br>resources from your bank on how you<br>can help protect your information.<br>Emergency Preparedness<br>Most banks also have stringent<br>internal policies regarding their<br>preparedness for emergencies<br>and disasters. These often involve<br>committees who meet on a regular<br>basis to discuss scenarios that may<br>disrupt their organization’s functions<br>Financial Literacy Month<br>While providing financial education<br>is fundamental to every community<br>bank’s mission, the C&N team takes our<br>responsibility as a trusted financial resource<br>for our communities seriously – it’s how<br>we do business. During the month of<br>April, which is Financial Literacy Month,<br>we extend our efforts in an attempt to<br>reach all of our community members by<br>way of on-site presentations and sharing<br>relevant educational content through a<br>multitude of platforms. April is also Teach<br>Children to Save Month, hosted by the<br>American Banking Association (ABA)<br>Foundation, so we focus our efforts this<br>month on educating children 13 and under.<br><br><br>One of the first steps in properly managing<br>your finances from a young age is learning<br>how and why to save money. Throughout<br>this month, C&N is giving away piggy<br>banks to any children who visit a C&N<br>office and share their savings goals with<br>us. We kicked this off with our teammates<br>first and a video showcasing their little<br>ones’ savings aspirations.
