NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CB Financial Services, Inc. (“CB Financial”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Community Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Exchange Underwriters, Inc. (“Exchange Underwriters” or “EU”). CB Financial and the Bank are collectively referred to as the “Company”. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading in any material respect. In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to determination of the allowance for losses on loans, the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans, evaluation of securities for other-than-temporary impairment including related cash flow projections, goodwill and intangible assets impairment, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations at the dates and for the periods presented. All these adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature, and they are the only adjustments included in the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were filed with the SEC and incorporated into the consolidated financial statements the effect of all material known events determined by Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC”) 855, Subsequent Events, to be recognizable events.

Nature of Operations

The Company derives substantially all its income from banking and bank-related services which include interest earnings on commercial, commercial mortgage, residential real estate and consumer loan financing, as well as interest earnings on investment securities and fees generated from deposit services to its customers. The Company provides banking services through its subsidiary, Community Bank, a Pennsylvania-chartered commercial bank headquartered in Carmichaels, Pennsylvania. The Bank operates from twenty offices in Greene, Allegheny, Washington, Fayette and Westmoreland Counties in southwestern Pennsylvania, seven offices in Brooke, Marshall, Ohio, Upshur and Wetzel Counties in West Virginia, and one office in Belmont County in Ohio. The Bank is a community-oriented institution offering residential and commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer loans as well as a variety of deposit products for individuals and businesses in its market area. Property and casualty, commercial liability, surety and other insurance products are offered through Exchange Underwriters, a full-service, independent insurance agency.

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts for the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications did not affect net income or stockholders’ equity.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying value of goodwill was $28.4 million. Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at the reporting unit level, which is conducted at least annually on October 31 or more frequently if triggering events occur or impairment indicators exist. The Company operates two reporting units – Community Banking segment and Insurance Brokerage Services segment. The Company has assigned 100% of the goodwill to the Community Banking reporting unit.

In 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04 whereby the Company applies a one-step quantitative test and records the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The Company has the option of performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether any further quantitative testing for impairment is necessary. The option of whether or not to perform a qualitative assessment is made annually. The quantitative test primarily utilizes market comparisons and recent merger and acquisition transactions to determine whether there is goodwill impairment.

The COVID-19 pandemic that has impacted the U.S. and most of the world and government response to curtail the spread of the virus through shelter-in-place orders and mandatory closures of all but essential businesses beginning in March 2020 has significantly impacted our market area and the activities of individuals. These restrictions have resulted in significant adverse effects on macroeconomic conditions, and stock market valuations have decreased substantially for most companies, including banks. The ultimate effect of COVID-19 on the local or broader economy is not known nor is the ultimate length of the restrictions described and any accompanying effects. In light of the adverse circumstances resulting from COVID-19, management determined it was necessary to evaluate goodwill for impairment at March 31, 2020.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit under a quantitative goodwill impairment test is judgmental and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The Company utilized a market approach to determine the fair value of the Community Banking reporting unit. Significant assumptions inherent in the valuation methodologies for goodwill are employed and include, but are not limited to, current and prospective financial information of the Bank, most recent performance of the Bank’s peers, including common banking industry performance measures and ratios, and comparable multiples from publicly traded companies in our industry. The valuation was primarily based on observable price to tangible book value bank merger and acquisition multiples for similar size community banks, which is the most widely used valuation metric in the community banking industry. As part of its analysis, the Company considered bank transactions of target banks that were comparable in asset size, risk and profitability and efficiency metrics during the “Great Recession” period from 2008 to 2010 when bank stock values were depressed and the stock market decline was similar with the current sudden and unexpected events caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Based on the analysis, management determined that goodwill was not impaired as of March 31, 2020. Future events, particularly worsening business, profitability and economic conditions as of a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, could cause additional triggering events and require management to further evaluate goodwill for impairment.

Recent Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued ASU2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The elective guidance in the ASU applies to modifications of contract terms that will directly replace, or have the potential to replace, an affected rate with another interest rate index, as well as certain contemporaneous modifications of other contract terms related to the replacement of an affected rate. The ASU notes that changes in contract terms that are made to effect the reference rate reform transition are considered related to the replacement of a reference rate if they are not the result of a business decision that is separate from or in addition to changes to the terms of a contract to effect that transition. The optional expedient allows companies to account for the modification as if it was not substantial (i.e., do not treat as an extinguishment of debt). The ASU is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. While the LIBOR reform may require extensive changes to the contracts that govern LIBOR based products, as well as our systems and processes, we cannot yet determine whether the Company will be able to use the optional expedient for the changes to contract terms that may be required by LIBOR reform and therefore, the Company cannot yet determine the magnitude of the impact or the overall impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operation.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). ASU 2018-15 was issued to help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (hosting arrangement) by providing guidance for determining when the arrangement includes a software license. The amendments align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments. This guidance became effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter 2020 and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated statement of financial condition or results of operations.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). ASU 2018-13 modifies disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. This ASU removes requirements to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 clarifies that disclosure regarding measurement uncertainty is intended to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. ASU 2018-13 adds certain disclosure requirements, including disclosure of changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU were effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter 2020. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively, while all other amendments should be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated statement of financial condition or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity applies a one-step quantitative test and records the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The new guidance does not amend the optional qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment. ASU 2017-04 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU 2017-04 effective October 31, 2019 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated statement of financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, ASU 2016-13 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP; and instead requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. For available-for-sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however this ASU requires that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. ASU 2016-13 affects companies holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The ASU 2016-13 amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. ASU 2016-13 was originally effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. In November 2019, the FASB approved a delay of the required implementation date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies, including the Company, resulting in a required implementation date for the Company of January 1, 2023. Early adoption will continue to be permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU and expects to recognize a one-time adjustment to the allowance for loan losses upon adoption, but we cannot yet determine the magnitude of the one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operation.

Note 2. Earnings Per Share

There are no convertible securities which would affect the numerator in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share; therefore, net income as presented on the Consolidated Statement of Income is used as the numerator.

The following table sets forth the composition of the weighted-average common shares (denominator) used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computation.

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2020		2019
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

Net income	$	773	$	2,925

Weighted-Average Basic Common Shares Outstanding		5,431,199		5,432,856
Dilutive Effect of Common Stock Equivalents (Stock Options and Restricted Stock)		25,668		18,622
Weighted-Average Diluted Common Shares and Common Stock Equivalents Outstanding		5,456,867		5,451,478

Earnings per share:
Basic	$	0.14	$	0.54
Diluted		0.14		0.54

The dilutive effect on weighted average diluted common shares outstanding is the result of outstanding stock options and nonvested restricted stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, options to purchase 78,545 and 83,688 shares of common stock, respectively, were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares for the period, therefore the effect would be antidilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, 30,250 shares of restricted stock awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the hypothetical repurchase of shares under the treasury stock method exceeded the weighted average nonvested restricted awards, therefore the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were no anti-dilutive restricted stock awards.

For debt securities, the Company does not believe that any individual unrealized loss as of March 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019, represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The Company performs a review of the entire securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to identify securities that may indicate an other-than-temporary impairment. The Company’s management considers the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, and the financial condition of the issuer. The securities that are temporarily impaired at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 relate principally to changes in interest rates subsequent to the acquisition of the specific securities. The Company does not intend to sell, or it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell any of the securities in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost or maturity of the security.

Marketable equity securities are measured at fair value with changes in fair value included in Change in Fair Value of Marketable Equity Securities on the Consolidated Statement of Income. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable equity securities are included in Net Loss on Sales of Investment Securities on the Consolidated Statement of Income. There were no sales of marketable equity securities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

There were no sales of available-for-sale securities for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Sales of available-for-sale investment securities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 resulted in gross losses of $60,000.

Note 4. Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company’s loan portfolio consists of four classifications: real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, consumer loans, and other loans. The following table presents the classifications of loans as of the dates indicated.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020 and provides over $2.0 trillion in emergency economic relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which includes authorizing the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) to temporarily guarantee loans under a new 7(a) loan program called the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). Under the PPP, participating SBA and other qualifying lenders can originate loans to eligible businesses that are fully guaranteed by the SBA as to principal and interest, have more favorable terms than traditional SBA loans and may be forgiven if the proceeds are used by the borrower for certain purposes. PPP is designed to help small businesses keep their workforce employed and cover expenses during the COVID-19 crisis. These loans have a two-year loan term to maturity, an interest rate of 1% per annum and loan payments are deferred for six months. The SBA will guarantee 100% of the PPP loans made to eligible borrowers. The entire principal amount of a PPP loan, including any accrued interest, is eligible to be reduced by the loan forgiveness amount under the PPP so long as employee and compensation levels of the business are maintained and 75% of the loan proceeds are used for payroll expenses, with the remaining 25% of the loan proceeds used for other qualifying expenses. The Bank receives a processing fee from the SBA ranging from 1% to 5% depending on the size of the loan, which is offset by a 0.75% third-party servicing agent fee. On April 16, 2020, the original $349 billion funding cap was reached. On April 23, 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act (the “PPP Enhancement Act”) was signed into law and includes an additional $484 billion in COVID-19 relief, including allocating an additional $310 billion to replenish the PPP. The second round of the PPP began on April 27, 2020.

As part of the first round of the PPP, the Bank originated 181 loans totaling $38.6 million and generated approximately $1.2 million from processing fees. The total approved loans will impact 3,081 small business employees. The Bank is also participating in the second round of the PPP and as of April 29, 2020, we expect to submit approximately 315 applications totaling $27.6 million and generate an additional $1.0 million in processing fees. All PPP loan originations occurred after the end of the March 31, 2020 reporting period and will be classified as commercial and industrial loans held for investment.

Total unamortized net deferred loan fees were $950,000 and $907,000 at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Real estate loans serviced for others, which are not included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, totaled $101.2 million and $100.0 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

The following table presents loans summarized by the aggregate Pass and the criticized categories of Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful within the internal risk rating system as of the dates indicated. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no loans in the criticized category of Loss within the internal risk rating system.

The increase of $20.3 million in the special mention loan category as of March 31, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019 was mainly from the downgrade of the hospitality portfolio due to the economic conditions in that industry caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase of $4.1 million in the substandard category is primarily due to a lease dispute on a $2.3 million industrial building (commercial real estate) and $956,000 associated with two residential real estate loans which have insufficient debt service coverage from the borrower demonstrating an inability to build and sell the speculative homes at a fast enough rate that can service the interest-only debt.

The recorded investment of residential real estate loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process according to applicable requirements of the local jurisdiction was $1.7 million and $1.1 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

TDRs typically are the result of loss mitigation activities whereby concessions are granted to minimize loss and avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral. For a loan modification to be considered a TDR, the borrower must be experiencing financial difficulty and a concession must be granted, except for an insignificant delay in payment. Section 4013 of the CARES Act provides temporary relief from accounting and financial reporting requirements for TDRs regarding certain loan modifications related to COVID-19. Specifically, the CARES Act provides that the Bank may elect to suspend the requirements under GAAP for certain loan modifications that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR and suspend any determination that such loan modifications would be considered a TDR, including the related impairment for accounting purposes. Any modification involving a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019 and that occurs beginning on March 1, 2020 and ends on the earlier of December 31, 2020 or the date that is 60 days after the termination date of the national emergency related to the COVID-19 outbreak qualify for this exception, including a forbearance arrangement, interest rate modification, repayment plan or any other similar arrangement that defers or delays the payment of principal or interest.

Banking regulatory agencies released an interagency statement that offers practical expedients for modifications that occur in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, but they differ with the CARES Act in certain areas. The expedients require a lender to conclude that a borrower is not experiencing financial difficulty if either short-term (e.g., six months or less) modifications are made, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant related to loans in which the borrower is less than 30 days past due on its contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented or the modification or deferral program is mandated by the federal government or a state government. The banking regulatory agencies have subsequently confirmed that their guidance could be applicable for loans that do not qualify for favorable accounting treatment under Section 4013 of the CARES Act. Both Section 4013 of the CARES Act and the interagency statement can be applied to a second modification that occurs after the first modification provided that the second modification does not qualify as a TDR under Section 4013 of the CARES Act or the interagency statement. In its evaluation of whether a payment deferral qualifies as short-term under the interagency statement, an entity should assess multiple payment deferrals collectively (i.e., the cumulative deferrals cannot exceed six months).

The Bank offered forbearance options for borrowers impacted by COVID-19 that provide a short-term delay in payment by primarily allowing: (a) deferral of three months of payments; or (b) for consumer loans not secured by a real estate mortgage, three months of interest-only payments that also extends the maturity date of the loan by three months. During the forbearance period, the borrower is not considered delinquent for credit bureau reporting purposes. The Company has elected the practical expedients related to TDRs that are available in the CARES Act and interagency guidance as an entity-wide accounting policy and does not consider any of the forbearance agreements TDRs. The following table provides details of loans in forbearance as of April 29, 2020.

Forbearance in the commercial real estate category includes, but is not limited to, $24.2 million of retail space, $17.9 million of nonowner occupied multi-family apartments, $15.8 million in hotels, $11.9 million of warehouse space, and $4.7 million in various business that are dependent on the oil and gas industry, which includes $3.1 million of hotels in proximity to oil and gas related activity.

The concessions granted for the TDRs in the portfolio primarily consist of, but are not limited to, modification of payment or other terms, temporary rate modification and extension of maturity date. Loans classified as TDRs consisted of 16 loans totaling $2.9 million and $3.0 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were no loans that were modified that were considered a TDR or TDRs that paid off.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, one residential real estate loan was modified in a TDR transaction by extending the term of the loan and one residential real estate TDR paid off. No TDRs subsequently defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The $3.8 million increase in recorded investment of loans evaluated for impairment is primarily due to a lease dispute on a $2.3 million industrial building (commercial real estate) and $956,000 and $853,000 associated with two residential real estate loans and one residential construction loan, respectively, which have insufficient debt service coverage from the borrower demonstrating an inability to build and sell the speculative homes at a fast enough rate that can service the interest-only debt. These loans were downgraded to substandard as of March 31, 2020.

The following table presents the activity in the allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) summarized by major classifications and segregated into the amount required for loans individually evaluated for impairment and the amount required for loans collectively evaluated for potential impairment at the dates and for the periods indicated.

The COVID-19 pandemic, which led to state-wide shelter in place orders and mandatory closures of all but essential business has resulted in a dramatic increase in unemployment and recessionary economic conditions. Based on evaluation of the current macroeconomic conditions, the qualitative factors used in the allowance for loan loss analysis related to economic trends and industry conditions, specifically because of vulnerable industries such as hospitality, oil and gas, retail and restaurants, were adjusted for these circumstances and resulted in a $2.5 million provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This change increased the ALLL in all categories except commercial and industrial due to a decrease in the average loss history factor as further explained below.

Prior to the quarter ended March 31, 2020, management determined historical loss experience for each segment of loans using a two-year rolling average of the net charge-off data within each loan segment, which was then used in combination with qualitative factors to calculate the general allowance component that covers pools of homogeneous loans that are not specifically evaluated for impairment. For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company began using a five-year rolling average of the net charge-off data within each segment. This change was driven by no net charge-off experience in the commercial real estate and commercial and industrial segments in the prior two-year rolling period as of March 31, 2020, which the Company believes does not represent the inherent risks in those segments. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company incurred $1.4 million of commercial and industrial charge-offs, however this period would have dropped off the lookback period as of March 31, 2020 if continuing to use a two-year history. In addition, moving to a five-year history is expected to improve the calculation moving forward by capturing economic ebbs and flows over a longer period while also not heavily weighting one period of charge-off activity.

Under this arrangement the Company had available a variable rate Line of Credit in the amount of $147.0 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, of which, there was no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

At March 31, 2020, the Company maintained a Borrower-In-Custody of Collateral line of credit agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) for $98.0 million that requires monthly certification of collateral, is subject to annual renewal, incurs no service charge and is secured by commercial and industrial and consumer indirect auto loans. The Company also maintains multiple line of credit arrangements with various unaffiliated banks totaling $60.0 million as of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, no draws had been taken on these facilities.

Note 8. Fair Value Disclosure

FASB ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurement” defines fair value and provides the framework for measuring fair value and required disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability at the transaction date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in valuation methods to determine fair value.

The three levels of fair value hierarchy are as follows:

	Level 1 –	Fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Company for identical assets. These generally provide the most reliable evidence and are used to measure fair value whenever available.

	Level 2 –	Fair value is based on significant inputs, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset through corroboration with observable market data. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices in active markets for similar assets, quoted market prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, and other observable inputs.

	Level 3 –	Fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs. Examples of valuation methodologies that would result in Level 3 classification include option pricing models, discounted cash flows, and other similar techniques.

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents the financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and reported on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of the dates indicated, by level within the fair value hierarchy. The majority of the Company’s securities are included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values for Level 2 securities were primarily determined by a third-party pricing service using both quoted prices for similar assets, when available, and model-based valuation techniques that derive fair value based on market-corroborated data, such as instruments with similar prepayment speeds and default interest rates. The standard inputs that are normally used include benchmark yields of like securities, reportable trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data including market research publications. There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 or year ended December 31, 2019.

The following table presents the financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of the dates indicated by level within the fair value hierarchy. The table also presents the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements. Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are written down to fair value through the establishment of specific reserves. Techniques used to value the collateral that secure the impaired loans include quoted market prices for identical assets classified as Level 1 inputs or observable inputs, employed by certified appraisers, for similar assets classified as Level 2 inputs. In cases where valuation techniques included inputs that are unobservable and are based on estimates and assumptions developed by management based on the best information available under each circumstance, the asset valuation is classified as Level 3 inputs.

OREO	Level 3		76		58	Market Comparable Properties	Marketability Discount	10%	to	50%	(1	)

(1) Range includes discounts taken since appraisal and estimated values.

Impaired loans are evaluated when a loan is identified as impaired and valued at the lower of cost or fair value at that time. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of impaired loans consists of the loan balances of $3.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively, less their specific valuation allowances of $651,000 and $884,000, respectively.

OREO properties are evaluated at the time of acquisition and recorded at fair value, less estimated selling costs. After acquisition, OREO is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs. The fair value of an OREO property is determined from a qualified independent appraisal and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, one commercial real estate OREO property with a fair value of $18,000 sold at a gain of $4,000. In addition, two residential real estate loans for $76,000 transferred to OREO.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, one commercial real estate OREO property with a fair value of $697,000 was sold at a $33,000 gain and one residential OREO property, with a fair value of $46,000 was sold for a $3,000 loss.

Financial instruments are defined as cash, evidence of an ownership in an entity, or a contract which creates an obligation or right to receive or deliver cash or another financial instrument from/to a second entity on potentially favorable or unfavorable terms.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. If no readily available market exists, the fair value estimates for financial instruments should be based upon management’s judgment regarding current economic conditions, interest rate risk, expected cash flows, future estimated losses and other factors, as determined through various option pricing formulas or simulation modeling. As many of these assumptions result from judgments made by management based upon estimates which are inherently uncertain, the resulting estimated fair values may not be indicative of the amount realizable in the sale of a particular financial instrument. In addition, changes in the assumptions on which the estimated fair values are based may have significant impact on the resulting estimated fair values.

As certain assets such as deferred tax assets and premises and equipment are not considered financial instruments, the estimated fair value of financial instruments would not represent the full value of the Company.

The following table presents the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at the dates indicated.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business primarily to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby and performance letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby and performance letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Commitments and conditional obligations are evaluated the same as on-balance-sheet instruments but do not have a corresponding reserve recorded. The Company’s opinion on not implementing a corresponding reserve for off-balance-sheet instruments is supported by historical factors of no losses recorded due to these items. The Company is continually evaluating these items for credit quality and any future need for the corresponding reserve.

The following table presents the unused and available credit balances of financial instruments whose contracts represent credit risk at the dates indicated.

	March 31,		December 31,
	2020		2019
(Dollars in thousands)

Standby Letters of Credit	$	40,906	$	42,041

Commercial Lines of Credit		77,470		102,422
Total Commitments	$	232,209	$	240,104

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.

Performance letters of credit represent conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These instruments are issued primarily to support bid or performance-related contracts. The coverage period for these instruments is typically a one-year period with an annual renewal option subject to prior approval by management. Fees earned from the issuance of these letters are recognized upon expiration of the letter. For secured letters of credit, the collateral is typically Company deposit instruments or customer business assets.

Note 10. Leases

The Company evaluates all contracts at commencement to determine if a lease is present. The Company’s lease contracts are all classified as operating leases and created operating right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The leases are primarily ROU assets of land and building for branch and loan production locations. ROU assets are reported on the accrued interest and other assets line and the related lease liabilities on the accrued interest and other liabilities line on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.

The following tables present the ROU assets, lease expense, weighted average term, discount rate and maturity analysis of lease liabilities for operating leases for the periods indicated.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements, notes and tables included in this report. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are not historical facts, but rather statements based on the Company’s current expectations regarding its business strategies, intended results and future performance. Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends” and similar expressions. Management’s ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could affect actual results include, but are not limited to, the following:

General and local economic conditions;

The scope and duration of economic contraction as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the Company’s business and that of the Company’s customers;

Changes in market interest rates, deposit flows, demand for loans, real estate values and competition;

Competitive products and pricing;

The ability of our customers to make scheduled loan payments;

Loan delinquency rates and trends;

Our ability to manage the risks involved in our business;

Our ability to integrate the operations of businesses we acquire;

Our ability to control costs and expenses;

Inflation, market and monetary fluctuations;

Changes in federal and state legislation and regulation applicable to our business;

Actions by our competitors; and

Other factors disclosed in the Company’s periodic reports as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

Given the numerous unknowns and risks that are heavily weighted to the downside, our forward-looking statements are subject to the risk that conditions will be substantially different than we are currently expecting. If efforts to contain COVID-19 are unsuccessful and shelter-in-place orders last longer than expected, the recession would be much longer and much more severe and damaging. Ineffective fiscal stimulus, or an extended delay in implementing it, are also major risks. The deeper the recession and the longer it lasts, the more it will damage consumer fundamentals and sentiment. This could both prolong the recession and make any recovery weaker. Similarly, the recession could damage business fundamentals. As a result, the outbreak and its consequences, including responsive measures to manage it, have had and are likely to continue to have an adverse effect, possibly materially, on our business and financial performance by adversely affecting, possibly materially, the demand and profitability of our products and services, the valuation of assets and our ability to meet the needs of our customers.

The ability to predict the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s future operating results with any precision is difficult and depends on many factors beyond our control. The market area was one of the first to implement state-wide shelter-in-place orders and closing all but essential businesses. The far-reaching consequences of these actions and the crisis is unknown and will largely depend on the extent and length of the recession combined with how quickly the economy can re-open. For example:

While specific actions have been taken to protect employees through work-at-home arrangements and social distancing measures for those working in our offices, including limiting branch traffic to drive-thru and special appointments only, outbreak among employees could result in closure of branches or back office operations for quarantine purposes and result in the unavailability of key employees and disruption of services provided to customers.

The lack of economic activity may curtail lending opportunities, especially from a commercial perspective, and impact our customers involved in vulnerable industries such as hospitality, oil and gas, retail, and restaurants.

Forbearance activity and any additional forbearance that may be needed could impact cash flows and liquidity and result in decreases in late charges.

Delinquencies, nonperforming loans, charge-offs and the related provision for loan losses, and foreclosures may significantly increase after forbearance period ends, if economic stimulus does not have the intended outcome and/or if the economy does not fully re-open allowing people to return to work.

A sustained economic downturn may result in a decrease in the Company’s value and result in potential material impairment to its goodwill, intangible assets and/or long-lived assets.

The Federal Reserve Board’s decision to drop the benchmark interest rate from a range of 1.5% to 1.75% to start the year to a range of 0% to 0.25% as part of a wide-ranging emergency action to protect the economy from the COVID-19 outbreak may result in an influx of loan refinances that could impact the Company’s net interest income.

The lack of movement may negatively impact our noninterest income through less fee activity, such as from customer debit card swipes for purchases.

Insurance commissions may decline because workers compensation policies are mainly determined based on payroll figures, which could decrease due to job loss.

The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

General

CB Financial Services, Inc. is a bank holding company established in 2006 and headquartered in Carmichaels, Pennsylvania. CB Financial’s business activity is conducted primarily through its wholly owned banking subsidiary Community Bank.

The Bank operates from twenty offices in Greene, Allegheny, Washington, Fayette and Westmoreland Counties in southwestern Pennsylvania, seven offices in Brooke, Marshall, Ohio, Upshur and Wetzel Counties in West Virginia, and one office in Belmont County in Ohio. The Bank is a community-oriented institution offering residential and commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer loans as well as a variety of deposit products for individuals and businesses in its market area. Property and casualty, commercial liability, surety and other insurance products are offered through Exchange Underwriters, Inc., the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary that is a full-service, independent insurance agency.

Overview

The following discussion and analysis is presented to assist in the understanding and evaluation of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. It is intended to complement the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction therewith. The detailed discussion focuses on our consolidated financial condition as of March 31, 2020, compared to the financial condition as of December 31, 2019 and the consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Our results of operations depend primarily on our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets and the interest we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities. Our results of operations also are affected by our provisions for loan losses, noninterest income and noninterest expense. Noninterest income consists primarily of fees and service charges on deposit accounts, fees and charges on loans, insurance commissions, income from bank-owned life insurance and other income. Noninterest expense consists primarily of expenses related to salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, contracted services, legal fees, OREO, advertising and promotion, stationery and supplies, deposit and general insurance and other expenses.

Financial institutions like us, in general, are significantly affected by economic conditions, competition, and the monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of housing, competition among lenders, interest rate conditions, and funds availability. Our operations and lending are principally concentrated in southwestern Pennsylvania and Ohio Valley market areas.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at the reporting unit level, which is conducted at least annually on October 31 or more frequently if triggering events occur or impairment indicators exist. The Company operates two reporting units – Community Banking segment and Insurance Brokerage Services segment. The Company has assigned 100% of the goodwill to the Community Banking reporting unit.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying value of goodwill was $28.4 million. In light of the adverse circumstances resulting from COVID-19, management determined it was necessary to evaluate goodwill for impairment and, based on its analysis, determined that goodwill was not impaired as of March 31, 2020. Refer to Note 1 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this report for further details on goodwill.

Explanation of Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information in understanding our underlying results of operations or financial position and our business and performance trends as they facilitate comparisons with the performance of other companies in the financial services industry. Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the understanding of our business and performance, they should not be considered an alternative to GAAP or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable with non-GAAP measures which may be presented by other companies. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found herein.

The interest income on interest-earning assets, net interest rate spread and net interest margin are presented on a fully tax-equivalent (“FTE”) basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax benefit of income on certain tax-exempt loans and securities using the federal statutory income tax rate of 21 percent. We believe the presentation of net interest income on a FTE basis ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice.

The following table reconciles net interest income, net interest spread and net interest margin on a FTE basis for the periods indicated:

Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition Analysis

Assets. Total assets decreased $8.4 million, or 0.6%, to $1.31 billion at March 31, 2020, from $1.32 billion at December 31, 2019.

•	Cash and due from banks decreased $2.1 million, or 2.6%, to $78.1 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $80.2 million at December 31, 2019. This is primarily the result of utilizing funds from investment security call activity to fund loans and deposit outflows.

•	Investment securities classified as available-for-sale decreased $26.0 million, or 13.2%, to $171.4 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $197.4 million at December 31, 2019. This was primarily the result of $41.4 million of calls mainly in U.S. government agency securities due to the market interest rate decreases that occurred in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and $7.6 million of paydowns on mortgage backed securities partially offset by $19.8 million of mortgage backed security purchases. In addition, there was a $3.5 million increase in the market value of the debt securities portfolio attributed to market interest rate decreases and $458,000 loss in market value in the marketable equity securities portfolio, which is primarily comprised of bank stocks.

•	Net loans increased $19.7 million, or 2.1%, to $962.3 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $942.6 million at December 31, 2019. This was primarily due to net loan advances of $14.4 million in construction loans and net loan originations of $7.9 million in consumer loans and $3.0 million in commercial real estate loans. This was partially offset by a decrease of $4.9 million in commercial and industrial loans. Total loans before allowance for loan losses increased $22.2 million and represented a 9.3% annualized growth rate.

	At March 31, 2020, the loan portfolio includes the following exposures which are widely expected to be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic:

	°	Approximately $83.2 million of retail space secured by commercial real estate.

	°	Approximately $63.0 million of nonowner occupied multi-family apartments.

	°	Approximately $21.7 million to various businesses that are dependent on the oil and gas industry, including, but not limited to, office space, hotels in proximity to oil and gas related activity, capital assets for drilling and transportation, and other support activity.

	°	Approximately $24.6 million of hotel loans secured by commercial real estate, which excludes $3.1 million of hotels reliant on the oil and gas industry.

	°	Approximately $24.6 million of hotel loans secured by commercial real estate, which excludes $3.1 million of hotels reliant on the oil and gas industry.

	°	Approximately $5.2 million in restaurants secured by commercial real estate

	Refer to Note 4 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this report for details of activity that mainly occurred after the end of the March 31, 2020 reporting period related to loans in forbearance and PPP loans.

•	The allowance for loan losses was $12.3 million at March 31, 2020 and reflects a $2.5 million provision for loan loss in the current quarter. Management analyzes the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the need for additional provisions for loan losses. The COVID-19 pandemic, which led to state-wide shelter in place orders and mandatory closures of all but essential business has resulted in a dramatic increase in unemployment and recessionary economic conditions. Based on evaluation of the current macroeconomic conditions, the qualitative factors used in the allowance for loan loss analysis related to economic trends and industry conditions, specifically because of vulnerable industries such as hospitality, oil and gas, retail and restaurants, were adjusted for these circumstances and resulted in the $2.5 million provision for loan losses in the current quarter. As a result, the allowance for loan losses to total loans increased from 1.04% at December 31, 2019 to 1.26% at March 31, 2020.

•	Nonperforming loans declined to $5.2 million at March 31, 2020 compared to $5.4 million at December 31, 2019 and coupled with loan growth noted previously resulted in the nonperforming loans to total loans ratio decreasing 3 basis points to 0.54% at March 31, 2020 compared to 0.57% at December 31, 2019.

Liabilities. Total liabilities decreased $8.8 million, or 0.8%, to $1.16 billion at March 31, 2020 compared to $1.17 billion at December 31, 2019.

•	Total deposits decreased $11.7 million, or 1.0%, to $1.11 billion at March 31, 2020, from $1.12 billion at December 31, 2019. There were decreases of $8.2 million in time deposits, $4.8 million in money market accounts, and $2.5 million in NOW accounts, partially offset by an increase of $3.6 million in savings accounts. This decrease is largely the result of a decrease in jumbo CDs and cyclical tax deposits received on municipal money market and NOW accounts. The Bank has been selective on offering promotional interest rates and continues to evaluate its rate structure in light of recent rate decreases by the Federal Reserve.

•	Short-term borrowings increased $4.4 million, or 14.4%, to $35.0 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $30.6 million at December 31, 2019. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, short-term borrowings were comprised entirely of securities sold under agreements to repurchase. The increase is related to business deposit customers whose funds, above designated target balances, are transferred into an overnight interest-earning investment account by purchasing securities from the Bank’s investment portfolio under an agreement to repurchase.

•	Other borrowed funds decreased $3.0 million, due to a FHLB borrowing that matured in the current period.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $428,000, or 0.3%, to $151.5 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $151.1 million at December 31, 2019. Net income was $773,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Book value per share was $28.09, an increase of $0.44 at March 31, 2020, compared to $27.65 for December 31, 2019. The Company paid $1.3 million in dividends to common stockholders and accumulated other comprehensive income increased $2.8 million primarily due to market interest rate conditions in the current period on the Bank’s available-for-sale debt securities. In addition, as part of the Company’s stock repurchase program, the Company repurchased 67,816 shares of common stock totaling $1.9 million during the current quarter. COVID-19 prompted the Company to announce on March 19, 2020 that the stock repurchase program was suspended until further notice to preserve excess capital in support of the Bank’s business of providing financial services to its customers and communities.

Consolidated Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

Overview. Net income decreased $2.2 million to $773,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The quarterly results were mainly impacted by a $2.5 million provision for loan losses and significant decrease in the fair value of the marketable equity securities portfolio.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $99,000, or 0.9%, to $10.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $10.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Interest and dividend income increased $33,000, or 0.3%, to $12.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, which was comparable to the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Interest income on loans increased $331,000, or 3.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. Average net loans increased by $52.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to organic commercial and residential real estate loan growth which increased $31.4 million and $26.7 million on average respectively, but contributed to a decrease of 16 basis points in average loan yield. We expect average loan yield to be further impacted by the 150 basis point decline in the Federal Reserve benchmark rate and Wall Street Journal Prime Rate in March 2020, which resulted in immediate decrease in interest rates on adjustable rate loans linked to the Prime Rate.

The impact of the accretion of the credit mark on acquired loans portfolios was $76,000 in the current period compared to $60,000 in the prior period, or 3 bps in both periods.

Other interest and dividend income, which primarily consists of interest-bearing cash at correspondent banks, decreased $80,000, or 25.2% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. While the average balance increased $18.9 million, the average yield decreased 134 basis points due to the decline in the current period interest rates earned on deposits at other financial institutions from COVID-19. The Company is maintaining cash to support loan demand from the PPP program in the second quarter of 2020.

	·	Interest income on taxable securities decreased $116,000, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 mainly due to a decrease of $31.8 million in the average balance partially offset by a 26 basis point increase in yield in the current period. The Federal Reserve’s decision to drop the benchmark interest rate to 0%-0.25% resulted in the call of $41.4 million in U.S. government agency securities during the quarter. The funds were partially maintained in cash or reinvested in lower rate mortgage-backed securities. These funds will primarily be used to fund PPP loan activity in the second quarter of 2020.

	·	Interest income on tax-exempt securities decreased $102,000 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. This was due to prior period lower yielding security calls and municipal bond sales, which attributed to an average balance decrease of $16.0 million.

Interest expense decreased $66,000, or 3.5%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Interest expense on deposits decreased $38,000. While there was an increase in average interest-bearing deposits of $13.1 million, there was a decrease in average cost of 4 basis points. The decrease in interest expense is primarily attributed to a 5 to 11 basis point decline in average cost on interest-bearing demand deposits, savings and money market accounts, which resulted in a decrease of $88,000 in interest expense despite a total increase of $15.0 million in average balance in those categories. This was offset by a 10 basis point increase in average cost on time deposits, primarily from time deposits with balances greater than $100,000 from special promotions, which contributed to a $50,000 increase in interest expense.

Interest expense on other borrowed funds decreased $27,000 primarily due to FHLB long-term borrowings that matured and were paid off throughout the last year that resulted in a $8.8 million decrease in average balance.

Average Balances and Yields. The following tables present information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting average yields and costs. Average balances are derived from daily balances over the periods indicated. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts, and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or interest expense. FTE yield adjustments have been made for tax exempt loan and securities interest income utilizing a marginal federal income tax rate of 21% for the periods presented. As such, amounts will not agree to income as reported in the consolidated financial statements. Average balances for loans are net of the allowance for loan losses, and include nonaccrual loans with a zero yield. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances only. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing annualized income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table presents the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the periods indicated. FTE yield adjustments have been made for tax exempt loan and securities income utilizing a marginal federal income tax rate of 21%. The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume. The total column represents the sum of the prior columns.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $25,000, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. As noted previously in the Assets section of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition Analysis, management analyzes the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the need for additional provisions for loan losses. The COVID-19 pandemic, which led to state-wide shelter in place orders and mandatory closures of all but essential business has resulted in a dramatic increase in unemployment and recessionary economic conditions. Based on evaluation of the current macroeconomic conditions, the qualitative factors used in the allowance for loan loss analysis related to economic trends and industry conditions, specifically because of vulnerable industries such as hospitality, oil and gas, retail and restaurants, were adjusted for these circumstances and resulted in the $2.5 million provision for loan losses in the current quarter.

Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $45,000, or 0.02% net charge-offs to average loans on an annualized basis. Net charge-offs were $171,000, or 0.08% net charge-offs to average loans on an annualized basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 driven by higher automobile loan charge-offs.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased $243,000, or 11.5%, to $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The fair value of the Company’s marketable equity securities declined $438,000 in the first quarter of 2020 and $458,000 compared to the first quarter of 2019 from the impact of COVID-19 on the stock market. The Company’s marketable equity securities are primarily comprised of bank stocks.

Insurance commissions increased $132,000, or 11.5%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to targeted efforts to increase commercial policies.

Other income decreased $52,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due increased amortization of mortgage servicing rights on sold mortgages in the current period, which offsets related servicing income.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $122,000, or 1.4%, to $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Salaries and employee benefits decreased $206,000 to $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease compared to both prior periods was primarily due to a $407,000 one-time payment received from health insurance claims exceeding our stop-loss limit for the 2019 plan year and change from a self-funded to a fully insured plan. Final calculation of the stop loss payment was completed 90 days after the end of the plan year. This was partially offset by approximately $70,000 of one-time payments related to the CEO transition in the first quarter of 2020 and an increase in expense on restricted stock from the December 2019 grants. The Bank instituted a 10% premium pay program due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which will remain in effect until shelter in place orders have been lifted. The expense related to this program, along with overtime necessary to process loan volume, will be recognized beginning in the second quarter of 2020.

Contracted services increased $106,000 to $378,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $272,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to $116,000 in consulting fees associated with the search for a new CEO.

Advertising increased $66,000 to $183,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared $117,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 due to added focus on digital advertising.

Legal and professional fees increased $54,000 to $235,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $181,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 due to fees associated with the CEO transition.

Equipment expense decreased $39,000 to $257,000 for three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $296,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to fully depreciated items.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessment expense decreased $30,000 to $158,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $188,000 the three months ended December 31, 2019 due to a decrease in the Bank’s overall assessment rate in the current reporting period.

Income Tax Expense. Income taxes decreased $589,000 to $129,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $718,000, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 14.3%, compared to 19.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in income taxes was due to a decrease of $2.7 million in pre-tax income. The decrease in pre-tax income combined with stable tax-preference items resulted in a lower effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.

Other than loan commitments and standby and performance letters of credit, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a significant current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to investors. Refer to Note 9 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this report for a summary of commitments outstanding as of March 31, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Management

Liquidity. Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Company’s primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments and maturities, calls and sales of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are typically predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

The ability to predict the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s liquidity with any precision is difficult and depends on many factors beyond our control. The market area was one of the first to implement state-wide shelter-in-place orders and closing all but essential businesses. The far-reaching consequences of these actions and the crisis is unknown and will largely depend on the extent and length of the recession combined with how quickly the economy can re-open. Forbearance activity and any additional forbearance that may be needed could significantly impact our sources of funds from loan cash flows.

The Company regularly adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon its assessment of expected loan demand, expected deposit flows, yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and the objectives of its asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits with other banks and short- and intermediate-term securities. The Company believes that it had sufficient liquidity at March 31, 2020 to satisfy its short- and long-term liquidity needs.

The Company’s most liquid assets are cash and due from banks, which totaled $78.1 million at March 31, 2020. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. Unpledged securities, which provide an additional source of liquidity, totaled $18.7 million at March 31, 2020. In addition, at March 31, 2020, the Company had the ability to borrow up to $369.8 million from the FHLB of Pittsburgh, of which $40.0 million was utilized toward standby letters of credit. The Company also has the ability to borrow up to $98.0 million from the FRB through its Borrower-In-Custody line of credit agreement and the Company also maintains multiple line of credit arrangements with various unaffiliated banks totaling $60.0 million as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

At March 31, 2020, time deposits due within one year of that date totaled $82.7 million, or 39.1% of total time deposits. If these time deposits do not remain with the Company, the Company will be required to seek other sources of funds. Depending on market conditions, the Company may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than it currently pays on these certificates of deposit. The Company believes, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of its certificates of deposit will remain with it, either as certificates of deposit or as other deposit products. The Company has the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

We are committed to maintaining a strong liquidity position; therefore, we monitor our liquidity position on a daily basis. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to meet our current funding commitments. The marginal cost of new funding, however, whether from deposits or borrowings from the FHLB, will be carefully considered as we monitor our liquidity needs. Therefore, in order to minimize our cost of funds, we may consider additional borrowings from the FHLB in the future.

CB Financial is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity to pay any dividends to its shareholders and for other corporate purposes. Its primary source of liquidity is dividend payments it receives from the Bank. The Bank’s ability to pay dividends to CB Financial is subject to regulatory limitations. At March 31, 2020, CB Financial (on an unconsolidated, stand-alone basis) had liquid assets of $4.8 million. While the Company is not currently planning to reduce or suspend quarterly dividends, if the Company incurs or is expected to incur significant reduction in earnings as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, it may need to suspend or reduce the level of quarterly dividends. In addition, primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the expected impacts on the economy, on March 19, 2020, the Company announced that its stock repurchase program was suspended until further notice to preserve excess capital in support of the Bank’s business of providing financial services to its customers and communities. The ability to pay future dividends or conduct stock repurchases may be limited under applicable banking regulations and regulatory policies due to expected losses for future periods and/or the inability to upstream funds from the Bank to the Company as a result of lower income or regulatory capital levels.

Capital Management. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, each must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Under the Regulatory Capital Rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions (including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers), a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity Tier I capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in an amount greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Bank was categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. The following table presents the Bank’s regulatory capital amounts and ratios, as well as the minimum amounts and ratios required to be well capitalized as of the dates indicated.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.

The Company believes that as of March 31, 2020, there was no material change in the quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk data as of December 31, 2019, as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a)

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the SEC (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits against us, such as claims to enforce liens, claims seeking damages for improper collection procedures or misrepresentations, condemnation proceedings on properties in which we hold security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans and other issues incident to our business. We are not a party to any other pending legal proceedings that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted our business and financial results and that of many of our customers, and the ultimate impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, cannot be predicted and outside of our control, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created extensive disruptions to the global economy and to the lives of individuals throughout the world. Governments, businesses, and the public are taking unprecedented actions to contain the spread of COVID-19 and to mitigate its effects, including quarantines, travel bans, shelter-in-place orders, closures of businesses and schools, fiscal and monetary stimulus, and legislation designed to deliver financial aid and other relief. While the scope, duration, and full effects of COVID-19 are rapidly evolving and not fully known, the pandemic and the efforts to contain it have disrupted global economic activity, adversely affected the functioning of financial markets, impacted market interest rates, increased economic and market uncertainty, and disrupted trade and supply chains. If these effects continue for a prolonged period or result in sustained economic stress or recession, many of the risk factors identified in our Form 10-K could be exacerbated and the effects of COVID-19 could have a material adverse impact on us in a number of ways as described in more detail below.

Credit Risk – Our risks of timely loan repayment and the value of collateral supporting the loans are affected by the strength of our borrowers’ businesses. Concern about the spread of COVID-19 has caused and is likely to continue to cause business shutdowns, limitations on commercial activity and financial transactions, labor shortages, supply chain interruptions, increased unemployment and commercial property vacancy rates, reduced profitability and ability for property owners to make mortgage payments, and overall economic and financial market instability, all of which may cause our customers to be unable to make scheduled loan payments. Hotel and restaurant operators and others in the leisure, hospitality and travel industries, among other industries, have been particularly hurt by COVID-19. If the effects of COVID-19 result in widespread and sustained repayment shortfalls on loans in our portfolio, we could incur significant delinquencies, foreclosures and credit losses, particularly if the available collateral is insufficient to cover our credit exposure. The future effects of COVID-19 on economic activity could negatively affect the collateral values associated with our existing loans, the ability to liquidate the real estate collateral securing our residential and commercial real estate loans, our ability to maintain loan origination volume and to obtain additional financing, the future demand for or profitability of our lending and services, and the financial condition and credit risk of our customers. Further, in the event of delinquencies, regulatory changes and policies designed to protect borrowers may slow or prevent us from making our business decisions or may result in a delay in our taking certain remediation actions, such as foreclosure. In addition, we have unfunded commitments to extend credit to customers. During a challenging economic environment like now, our customers depend more on our credit commitments and increased borrowings under these commitments could adversely impact our liquidity. Furthermore, in an effort to support our communities during the pandemic, we are participating in the PPP under the CARES Act whereby loans to small businesses are made and those loans are subject to the regulatory requirements that would require forbearance of loan payments for a specified time or that would limit our ability to pursue all available remedies in the event of a loan default. If the borrower under the PPP loan fails to qualify for loan forgiveness, we are at the heightened risk of holding these loans at unfavorable interest rates as compared to the loans to customers that we would have otherwise extended credit.

Strategic Risk – Our success may be affected by a variety of external factors that may affect the price or marketability of our products and services, changes in interest rates that may increase our funding costs, reduced demand for our financial products due to economic conditions and the various response of governmental and nongovernmental authorities. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty and has led to disruption and volatility in the global capital markets. Furthermore, many of the governmental actions have been directed toward curtailing household and business activity to contain COVID-19. These actions have been rapidly expanding in scope and intensity. For example, in many of our markets, local governments have acted to temporarily close or restrict the operations of most businesses. The future effects of COVID-19 on economic activity could negatively affect the future banking products we provide, including a decline in originating loans.

Operational Risk – Current and future restrictions on our workforce’s access to our facilities could limit our ability to meet customer servicing expectations and have a material adverse effect on our operations. We rely on business processes and branch activity that largely depend on people and technology, including access to information technology systems as well as information, applications, payment systems and other services provided by third parties. In response to COVID-19, we have modified our business practices with a portion of our employees working remotely from their homes to have our operations uninterrupted as much as possible. Further, technology in employees’ homes may not be as robust as in our offices and could cause the networks, information systems, applications, and other tools available to employees to be more limited or less reliable than in our offices. The continuation of these work-from-home measures also introduces additional operational risk, including increased cybersecurity risk from phishing, malware, and other cybersecurity attacks, all of which could expose us to risks of data or financial loss and could seriously disrupt our operations and the operations of any impacted customers.

Moreover, we rely on many third parties in our business operations, including the appraiser of the real property collateral, vendors that supply essential services such as loan servicers, providers of financial information, systems and analytical tools and providers of electronic payment and settlement systems, and local and federal government agencies, offices, and courthouses. In light of the developing measures responding to the pandemic, many of these entities may limit the availability and access of their services. If the third-party service providers continue to have limited capacities for a prolonged period or if additional limitations or potential disruptions in these services materialize, it may negatively affect our operations.

Interest Rate Risk/Market Value Risk – Our net interest income, lending and investment activities, deposits and profitability could be negatively affected by volatility in interest rates caused by uncertainties stemming from COVID-19. In March 2020, the Federal Reserve lowered the target range for the federal funds rate to a range from 0% to 0.25%, citing concerns about the impact of COVID-19 on financial markets and market stress in the energy sector. A prolonged period of extremely volatile and unstable market conditions would likely increase our funding costs and negatively affect market risk mitigation strategies. Higher income volatility from changes in interest rates and spreads to benchmark indices could cause a loss of future net interest income and a decrease in prevailing fair market values of our investment securities and other assets. Fluctuations in interest rates will impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our net income, operating results, or financial condition.

Because there have been no comparable recent global pandemics that resulted in similar global impact, we do not yet know the full extent of COVID-19’s effects on our business, operations, or the global economy as a whole. Any future development will be highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, the effectiveness of our work-from-home arrangements, third party providers’ ability to support our operations, and any actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic. The uncertain future development of this crisis could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, operating results, financial condition, liquidity or capital levels.

Impairment in the carrying value of goodwill could negatively affect our results of operations.

At March 31, 2020, we had $28.4 million of goodwill on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and any impairment could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial conditions and results of operations. 100% of the goodwill is assigned to the Community Banking reporting unit. Under GAAP, goodwill must be evaluated for impairment annually or on an interim basis when a triggering event occurs. If the carrying value of our reporting unit exceeds its current fair value as determined based on the value of the business, the goodwill is considered impaired and is reduced to fair value by a non-cash, non-tax-deductible charge to earnings. The impairment testing required by GAAP involves estimates and significant judgments by management. Although we believe our assumptions and estimates are reasonable and appropriate, any changes in key assumptions or other unanticipated events and circumstances may affect the accuracy or validity of such estimates. Events and conditions that could result in impairment in the value of our goodwill include worsening business conditions and economic factors, particularly those that may result from the impact of a downturn in the economy as a result of COVID-19, changes in the industries in which we operate, adverse changes in the regulatory environment, or other factors leading to reduction in expected long-term profitability and cash flows.
