 are treated as financings, with the obligation to repurchase securities sold reflected as short-term borrowings. Refer to Note 12—Borrowings for additional information.Fair ValuesFair Value Hierarchy BancShares measures the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement, which defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. BancShares categorizes its financial instruments based on the significance of inputs to the valuation techniques according to the following three-tier fair value hierarchy:•Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. Level 1 assets and liabilities include equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market.•Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include certain commercial loans, debt and equity securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments or using a third-party pricing service, borrowings, time deposits, deposits with no stated maturity, securities sold under customer repurchase agreements and derivative contracts whose values are determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. •Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments such as collateral dependent commercial and consumer loans, as well as loans held for sale, certain available for sale corporate securities and derivative contracts, such as equity warrants, whose values are determined using valuation models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. Refer to Note 15—Fair Value for additional information.
