Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to the financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, future performance and our business. These forward-looking statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor for “forward-looking statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are those that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors (some of which are beyond our control). Forward-looking statements often include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “targets,” “potentially,” “probably,” “projects,” “outlook” or similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would” and “could.” Such known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the statements, include, but are not limited to, (i) changes in general business, industry or economic conditions or competition; (ii) changes in any applicable law, rule, regulation, policy, guideline or practice governing or affecting financial holding companies and their subsidiaries or with respect to tax or accounting principles or otherwise; (iii) adverse changes or conditions in capital and financial markets; (iv) changes in interest rates; (v) higher than expected costs or other difficulties related to integration of combined or merged businesses; (vi) the inability to realize expected cost savings or achieve other anticipated benefits in connection with business combinations and other acquisitions; (vii) changes in the quality or composition of our loan and investment portfolios; (viii) adequacy of loan loss reserves; (ix) increased competition; (x) loss of certain key officers; (xi) continued relationships with major customers; (xii) deposit attrition; (xiii) rapidly changing technology; (xiv) unanticipated regulatory or judicial proceedings and liabilities and other costs; (xv) changes in the cost of funds, demand for loan products or demand for financial services; (xvi) other economic, competitive, governmental or technological factors affecting our operations, markets, products, services and prices; and (xvii) our success at managing the foregoing items. Some of these and other factors are discussed in our annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Such factors could have an adverse impact on our financial position and our results of operations.

The forward-looking statements contained herein are based upon management’s beliefs and assumptions. Any forward-looking statement made herein speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

CNB FINANCIAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC and in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Because this report is based on an interim period, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted.

In the opinion of management of the registrant, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and the results of operations for the periods presented. The financial performance reported for CNB Financial Corporation (the “Corporation”) for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. This information should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2016 (the “2016 Form 10-K”). All dollar amounts are stated in thousands, except share and per share data and other amounts as indicated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 

2. STOCK COMPENSATION

The Corporation has a stock incentive plan for key employees and independent directors. The stock incentive plan, which is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors, provides for aggregate grants of up to 500,000 shares of common stock in the form of nonqualified options or restricted stock. For key employees, the plan vesting is one-fourth of the granted options or restricted stock per year beginning one year after the grant date, with 100% vested on the fourth anniversary of the grant date. For independent directors, the vesting schedule is one-third of the granted options or restricted stock per year beginning one year after the grant date, with 100% vested on the third anniversary of the grant date. At March 31, 2017, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options granted under this plan and no stock options were granted during the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

On February 14, 2017, the Corporation’s Board of Directors granted performance-based restricted stock awards (“PBRSAs”) with a range of 5,306 to 7,959 shares to an employee. The number of PBRSAs will depend on certain performance conditions and are also subject to service-based vesting.

Compensation expense for the restricted stock awards is recognized over the requisite service period noted above based on the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. Nonvested restricted stock awards are recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in-capital in shareholders’ equity until earned. Compensation expense resulting from these restricted stock awards was $515 and $240 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As of March 31, 2017, there was $1,992 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards.

A summary of changes in nonvested restricted stock awards for the three months ended March 31, 2017 follows:

 

     Shares      Per Share
Weighted Average
Grant Date Fair Value
 

Nonvested at beginning of period

     100,726      $ 17.36  

Granted

Vested

     (39,166      17.27  
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Nonvested at end of period

     99,683      $ 20.67

The fair value of shares vested was $917 and $542 during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

3. FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy has also been established which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The following three levels of inputs are used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The fair values of most trading securities and securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).

The Corporation’s structured pooled trust preferred securities are priced using Level 3 inputs. The decline in the level of observable inputs and market activity in this class of investments by the measurement date has been significant and resulted in unreliable external pricing. Broker pricing and bid/ask spreads, when available, vary widely, and the once-active market has become comparatively inactive. The Corporation engaged a third party consultant who has developed a model for pricing these securities. Information such as historical and current performance of the underlying collateral, deferral and default rates, collateral coverage ratios, break in yield calculations, cash flow projections, liquidity and credit premiums required by a market participant, and financial trend analysis with respect to the individual issuing financial institutions and insurance companies are utilized in determining the security valuation. Due to the current market conditions as well as the limited trading activity of these types of securities, the market value of the Corporation’s structured pooled trust preferred securities are highly sensitive to assumption changes and market volatility.

The Corporation’s derivative instruments are interest rate swaps that are similar to those that trade in liquid markets. As such, significant fair value inputs can generally be verified and do not typically involve significant management judgments (Level 2 inputs).

The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals prepared by third-parties. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Management also adjusts appraised values based on the length of time that has passed since the appraisal date and other factors. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

At December 31, 2016, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s pooled trust preferred securities were collateral default rate, yield, and prepayment speed. Significant increases in specific-issuer default assumptions or decreases in specific-issuer recovery assumptions would result in a lower fair value measurement. Conversely, decreases in specific-issuer default assumptions or increases in specific-issuer recovery assumptions would result in a higher fair value measurement.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are as follows at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

Impaired loans, measured for impairment using the fair value of collateral for collateral dependent loans, had a recorded investment of $3,017 with a valuation allowance of $950 as of March 31, 2017, resulting in a negative provision for loan losses of ($103) for the corresponding three month period. Impaired loans had a recorded investment of $3,120 with a valuation allowance of $1,053 as of December 31, 2016. Impaired loans carried at fair value resulted in a negative provision for loan losses of ($82) for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

The estimated fair values of impaired collateral dependent loans such as commercial or residential mortgages are determined primarily through third-party appraisals. When a collateral dependent loan, such as a commercial or residential mortgage loan, becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal, and the condition of the property. Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral and a further reduction for estimated costs to sell the property is applied, which results in an amount that is considered to be the estimated fair value. If a loan becomes impaired and the appraisal of related loan collateral is outdated, management applies an appropriate adjustment factor based on its experience with current valuations of similar collateral in determining the loan’s estimated fair value and resulting allowance for loan losses. Third-party appraisals are not customarily obtained in respect of unimpaired loans, unless in management’s view changes in circumstances warrant obtaining an updated appraisal.

The methods and assumptions, not otherwise presented, used to estimate fair values are described as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

Interest bearing time deposits with other banks: The fair value of interest bearing time deposits with other banks is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities, resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Loans held for sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Loans: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values, resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality, resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value as described previously. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

FHLB and other equity interests: It is not practical to determine the fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock and other equity interests due to restrictions placed on the transferability of these instruments.

Accrued interest receivable: The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates fair value resulting in a classification that is consistent with the asset with which it is associated.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. their carrying amount), resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits, resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Deposits held for sale: The fair value of deposits held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.

 

10


FHLB and other borrowings: The fair values of the Corporation’s FHLB and other borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements, resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Subordinated debentures: The fair value of the Corporation’s subordinated debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of arrangements, resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Accrued interest payable: The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates fair value resulting in a classification that is consistent with the liability with which it is associated.

While estimates of fair value are based on management’s judgment of the most appropriate factors as of the balance sheet date, there is no assurance that the estimated fair values would have been realized if the assets had been disposed of or the liabilities settled at that date, since market values may differ depending on various circumstances. The estimated fair values would also not apply to subsequent dates.

In addition, other assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments, such as premises and equipment, are not included in the disclosures. Also, non-financial assets such as, among other things, the estimated earnings power of core deposits, the earnings potential of trust accounts, the trained workforce, and customer goodwill, which typically are not recognized on the balance sheet, may have value but are not included in the fair value disclosures.

The Corporation evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis, or more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation.

A roll-forward of the other-than-temporary impairment amount related to credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

 

    2017     2016  

Balance of credit losses on debt securities for which a portion of other-than-temporary impairment was recognized in earnings, beginning of period

  $ 2,071     $ 4,054  

Credit losses previously recognized on securities sold during the period

    (2,071     0  

Additional credit loss for which other-than-temporary impairment was not previously recognized

    0       0  

Additional credit loss for which other-than-temporary impairment was previously recognized

  $ 0     $ 4,054  
 

 

 

   

 

 

 

The adjusted amortized cost of structured pooled trust preferred securities as of December 31, 2016 is insignificant.

For the securities that comprise corporate notes and bonds and the securities that are issued by state and political subdivisions, management monitors publicly available financial information, such as filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in order to evaluate the securities for other-than-temporary impairment. For financial institution issuers, management monitors information from quarterly “call” report filings that are used to generate Uniform Bank Performance Reports. All other securities that were in an unrealized loss position at the balance sheet date were reviewed by management, and issuer-specific documents were reviewed as appropriate given the following considerations. When reviewing securities for other-than-temporary impairment, management considers the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred. Management also considers the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than cost, and whether management does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is likely that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery.

 

12


As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, management concluded that the securities described in the previous paragraph were not other-than-temporarily impaired for the following reasons:

 

    There is no indication of any significant deterioration of the creditworthiness of the institutions that issued the securities.

 

    All contractual interest payments on the securities have been received as scheduled, and no information has come to management’s attention through the processes previously described which would lead to a conclusion that future contractual payments will not be timely received.

The Corporation does not intend to sell and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis.

On March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, securities carried at $316,736 and $329,379, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes as provided by law.

Information pertaining to security sales on available for sale securities is as follows:

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, net unamortized loan (fees) costs of $(1,753) and $(1,507), respectively, have been included in the carrying value of loans.

The Corporation’s outstanding loans and related unfunded commitments are primarily concentrated within Central and Western Pennsylvania, Central and Northeastern Ohio, and Western New York. The Bank attempts to limit concentrations within specific industries by utilizing dollar limitations to single industries or customers, and by entering into participation agreements with third parties. Collateral requirements are established based on management’s assessment of the customer. The Corporation maintains lending policies to control the quality of the loan portfolio. These policies delegate the authority to extend loans under specific guidelines and underwriting standards. These policies are prepared by the Corporation’s management and reviewed and ratified annually by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

Pursuant to the Corporation’s lending policies, management considers a variety of factors when determining whether to extend credit to a customer, including loan-to-value ratios, FICO scores, quality of the borrower’s financial statements, and the ability to obtain personal guarantees.

Commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans comprised 31% and 30% of the Corporation’s total loan portfolio at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Commercial mortgage loans comprised 31% and 31% of the Corporation’s total loan portfolio at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Management assigns a risk rating to all commercial loans at loan origination. The loan-to-value policy guidelines for commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans are generally a maximum of 80% of the value of business equipment, a maximum of 75% of the value of accounts receivable, and a maximum of 60% of the value of business inventory at loan origination. The loan-to-value policy guideline for commercial mortgage loans is generally a maximum of 85% of the appraised value of the real estate.

Residential real estate loans comprised 35% and 35% of the Corporation’s total loan portfolio at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The loan-to-value policy guidelines for residential real estate loans vary depending on the collateral position and the specific type of loan. Higher loan-to-value terms may be approved with the appropriate private mortgage insurance coverage. The Corporation also originates and prices loans for sale into the secondary market. Loans so originated are classified as loans held for sale and are excluded from residential real estate loans reported above. The rationale for these sales is to mitigate interest rate risk associated with holding lower rate, long-term residential mortgages in the loan portfolio and to generate fee revenue from sales and servicing the loan. The Corporation also offers a variety of unsecured and secured consumer loan and credit card products which represent less than 10% of the total loan portfolio at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Terms and collateral requirements vary depending on the size and nature of the loan.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The terms of certain loans have been modified as troubled debt restructurings. The modification of the terms of such loans included either or both of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan or an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk.

The following table presents the number of loans, loan balances, and specific reserves for loans that have been restructured in a troubled debt restructuring as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

There were no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings during the three months ended March 31, 2017 or March 31, 2016.

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms. All loans modified in troubled debt restructurings are performing in accordance with their modified terms as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and no principal balances were forgiven in connection with the loan restructurings.

In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, the Corporation performs an evaluation using its internal underwriting policies of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without a loan modification. The Corporation has no further loan commitments to customers whose loans are classified as a troubled debt restructuring.

Generally, non-performing troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Corporation classifies commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans and commercial mortgage loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. Loans with outstanding balances greater than $1 million are analyzed at least semiannually and loans with outstanding balances of less than $1 million are analyzed at least annually.

 

18


The Corporation uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention: Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Corporation’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard: Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful: Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans not rated as special mention, substandard, or doubtful are considered to be pass rated loans. All loans included in the following tables have been assigned a risk rating within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

The Corporation considers the performance of the loan portfolio and its impact on the allowance for loan losses. For residential real estate, consumer, and credit card loan classes, the Corporation also evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan, which was previously presented, and by payment activity. The following table presents the recorded investment in residential, consumer, and credit card loans based on payment activity as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

The Corporation’s portfolio of residential real estate and consumer loans maintained within Holiday Financial Services Corporation (“Holiday”) are considered to be subprime loans. Holiday is a subsidiary that offers small balance unsecured and secured loans primarily collateralized by automobiles and equipment, to borrowers with higher risk characteristics than are typical in the Bank’s consumer loan portfolio.

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the applicable period, excluding outstanding participating securities. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares determined for the basic computation plus the dilutive effect of potential common shares issuable under certain stock compensation plans. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no outstanding stock options to include in the diluted earnings per share calculations.

Unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Corporation has determined that its outstanding unvested stock awards are participating securities.

8. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

On May 3, 2011, the Corporation executed an interest rate swap agreement with a 5 year term and an effective date of September 15, 2013 in order to hedge cash flows associated with $10 million of a subordinated note that was issued by the Corporation during 2007 and elected cash flow hedge accounting for the agreement. The Corporation’s objective in using this derivative is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. The interest rate swap involves the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments from September 15, 2013 to September 15, 2018 without exchange of the underlying notional amount. At March 31, 2017, the variable rate on the subordinated debt was 2.68% (LIBOR plus 155 basis points) and the Corporation was paying 5.57% (4.02% fixed rate plus 155 basis points).

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, no derivatives were designated as fair value hedges or hedges of net investments in foreign operations. Additionally, the Corporation does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges.

The following tables provide information about the amounts and locations of activity related to the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges within the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of income as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

(e) Amount of Gain or (Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivative (Ineffective Portion and Amount Excluded from Effectiveness Testing)

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the interest rate swap will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the subordinated debentures. Such amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense in the next twelve months are expected to be $295. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, a cash collateral balance in the amount of $1,400 was maintained with a counterparty to the interest rate swaps. These balances are included in interest bearing deposits with other banks on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Corporation has entered into certain interest rate swap contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative contracts relate to transactions in which the Corporation enters into an interest rate swap with a customer while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with another financial institution. In connection with each swap transaction, the Corporation agrees to pay interest to the customer on a notional amount at a variable interest rate and receive interest from the customer on a similar notional amount at a fixed interest rate. Concurrently, the Corporation agrees to pay another financial institution the same fixed interest rate on the same notional amount and receive the same variable interest rate on the same notional amount. The transaction allows the Corporation’s customers to effectively convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate. Because the Corporation acts as an intermediary for its customer, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts offset each other and do not impact the Corporation’s results of operations.

The Corporation pledged cash collateral to another financial institution with a balance $750 as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. This balance is included in interest bearing deposits with other banks on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation does not require its customers to post cash or securities as collateral on its program of back-to-back swaps. However, certain language is included in the International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreement and loan documents where, in default situations, the Corporation is permitted to access collateral supporting the loan relationship to recover any losses suffered on the derivative asset or liability. The Corporation may be required to post additional collateral to swap counterparties in the future in proportion to potential increases in unrealized loss positions.

The following table provides information about the amounts and locations of activity related to the back-to-back interest rate swaps within the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

9. COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE

In February 2017, the Corporation completed an at-the-market common stock issuance. A total of 834,896 shares of the Corporation’s common stock were sold at a weighted average price of approximately $23.96, representing gross proceeds to the Corporation of approximately $20.0 million. Net proceeds from the transaction, after the sales commission and other expenses, were approximately $19.3 million, which will be used for general corporate purposes, including loan growth, additional liquidity, and working capital.

10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2017, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other) which is intended to simplify the measurement of goodwill in periods following the date on which the goodwill is initially recorded. Under the amendments in this update, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. A public business entity that is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filer should adopt the amendments in this update for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows) which addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this update apply to all entities, including business entities and not-for-profit entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows, and are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses) which will require recognition of an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses for assets measured at amortized cost. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold in current U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. In addition, the amendments in ASU 2016-13 broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually, such as loans. The update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently in the developmental stages of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the Corporation’s financial statements and is collecting available historical information in order to assess the expected credit losses. However, the impact to the financial statements is yet to be determined.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU 2016-09 requires recognition of the income tax effects of share-based awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled (i.e., Additional Paid-in-Capital pools will be eliminated). The guidance in this ASU became effective in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The update will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Corporation’s financial statements and anticipates an increase in the Corporation’s assets and liabilities. However, the amounts that will be adjusted are still to be determined.

In January 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. ASU 2016-01 provides updated accounting and reporting requirements for both public and non-public entities. The most significant provisions that will impact the Corporation are: 1) equity securities available for sale will be measured at fair value, with the changes in fair value recognized in the income statement; 2) eliminate the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments at amortized cost on the balance sheet; 3) utilization of exit price notion when measuring

 

23


the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; 4) require separate presentation of both financial assets and liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or accompanying notes to the financial statements. The update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, using a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year adoption. Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The ASU creates a new topic, Topic 606, to provide guidance on revenue recognition for entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additional disclosures are required to provide quantitative and qualitative information regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

ITEM 2

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation is presented to provide insight into management’s assessment of financial results. The Corporation’s subsidiary, CNB Bank (the “Bank”), provides financial services to individuals and businesses primarily within its primary market area of the Pennsylvania counties of Blair, Cambria, Cameron, Centre, Clearfield, Crawford, Elk, Indiana, Jefferson, and McKean. As ERIEBANK, a division of CNB Bank, the Bank operates in the Pennsylvania counties of Crawford, Erie, and Warren and the Ohio counties of Ashtabula and Lake. As FCBank, a division of CNB Bank, the Bank operates in the Ohio counties of Crawford, Richland, Ashland, Wayne, Marion, Morrow, Knox, Holmes, Delaware, and Franklin. As Bank on Buffalo, a division of CNB Bank, the Bank operates in Erie County, New York.

The Bank is subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Pennsylvania State Department of Banking as well as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries are not necessarily indicative of future performance. CNB Securities Corporation is incorporated in Delaware and currently maintains investments in debt and equity securities. CNB Insurance Agency, incorporated in Pennsylvania, provides for the sale of nonproprietary annuities and other insurance products. Holiday Financial Services Corporation (“Holiday”), incorporated in Pennsylvania, offers small balance unsecured loans and secured loans, primarily collateralized by automobiles and equipment, to borrowers with higher risk characteristics.

When we use the terms “we”, “us” and “our”, we mean CNB Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries. Management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements and related notes.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2016, included in its 2016 Form 10-K, and in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 1 of this report. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year ending December 31, 2017, or any future period.

GENERAL OVERVIEW

Management concentrates on return on average equity, earnings per share, asset quality, and other metrics to measure the performance of the Corporation. The interest rate environment will continue to play an important role in the future earnings of the Corporation. During the past several years, in order to address the historic lows on interest rates that are primarily tied to short-term rates, such as the Prime Rate, the Corporation has taken a variety of measures including instituting rate floors on our commercial lines of credit and home equity lines.

Non-interest costs are expected to increase with the growth of the Corporation; however, management’s growth strategies are expected to also result in an increase in earning assets as well as enhanced non-interest income which is expected to more than offset increases in non-interest expenses in 2017 and beyond. While past results are not an indication of future earnings, management believes the Corporation is well-positioned to sustain core earnings during 2017.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $28.4 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $29.2 million at December 31, 2016. Cash and cash equivalents fluctuate based on the timing and amount of liquidity events that occur in the normal course of business.

Management believes the liquidity needs of the Corporation are satisfied by the current balance of cash and cash equivalents, readily available access to traditional funding sources, Federal Home Loan Bank financing, and the portions of the securities and loan portfolios that mature within one year. The Corporation expects that these sources of funds will enable it to meet cash obligations and off-balance sheet commitments as they come due.

 

25


SECURITIES

Securities available for sale and trading securities decreased by $20.0 million or 4.0% since December 31, 2016, and associated cash proceeds were used primarily to fund loan growth. The footnotes to the consolidated financial statements provide more detail concerning the composition of the Corporation’s securities portfolio, the process for evaluating securities for other-than-temporary impairment, and for valuation of structured pooled trust preferred securities.

The Corporation generally buys into the market over time and does not attempt to “time” its transactions. In doing this, the highs and lows of the market are averaged into the portfolio and the overall effect of different rate environments is minimized. The Corporation monitors the earnings performance and the effectiveness of the liquidity of the securities portfolio on a regular basis through meetings of the Asset/Liability Committee of the Corporation’s Board of Directors (“ALCO”). The ALCO also reviews and manages interest rate risk for the Corporation. Through active balance sheet management and analysis of the securities portfolio, a sufficient level of liquidity is maintained to satisfy depositor requirements and various credit needs of our customers.

LOANS

The Corporation experienced an increase in loans, net of unearned discount, of $35.4 million, or 1.9%, during the first three months of 2017. Lending efforts consist principally of commercial and retail lending, which includes single family residential mortgages and other consumer loans. The Corporation views commercial lending as its competitive advantage and continues to focus on this area by hiring and retaining experienced loan officers and supporting them with quality credit analysis. The Corporation expects loan demand to be solid and loan balances to grow throughout the remainder of 2017.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is established by provisions for losses in the loan portfolio as well as overdrafts in deposit accounts. These provisions are charged against current income. Loans and overdrafts deemed not collectible are charged off against the allowance while any subsequent collections are recorded as recoveries and increase the allowance. The table below shows activity within the allowance account for the specified periods (in thousands):

The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is subject to a formal analysis by the Credit Administration and Finance Departments of the Corporation. As part of the formal analysis, delinquencies and losses are monitored monthly. The loan portfolio is divided into several categories in order to better analyze the entire pool. First is a selection of classified loans that is given a specific reserve. The remaining loans are pooled, by category, into these segments:

Reviewed

 

    Commercial, industrial, and agricultural

 

    Commercial mortgages

Homogeneous

 

    Residential real estate

 

    Consumer

 

    Credit cards

 

    Overdrafts

The reviewed loan pools are further segregated into four categories: special mention, substandard, doubtful, and pass rated. Historical loss factors are calculated for each pool excluding overdrafts based on the previous eight quarters of experience. The homogeneous pools are evaluated by analyzing the historical loss factors from the most previous quarter end and the two most recent year ends.

The historical loss factors for both the reviewed and homogeneous pools are adjusted based on the following six qualitative factors:

 

    levels of and trends in delinquencies, non-accrual loans, and classified loans;

 

    trends in volume and terms of loans;

 

    effects of any changes in lending policies and procedures;

 

    experience and ability of management;

 

    national and local economic trends and conditions; and

 

    concentrations of credit.

The methodology described above was created using the experience of the Corporation’s Management team, guidance from the regulatory agencies, expertise of a third-party loan review provider, and discussions with peers. The resulting factors are applied to the pool balances in order to estimate the probable risk of loss within each pool. Prudent business practices dictate that the level of the allowance, as well as corresponding charges to the provision for loan losses, should be commensurate with identified areas of risk within the loan portfolio and the attendant risks inherent therein. The quality of the credit risk management function and the overall administration of this vital segment of the Corporation’s assets are critical to the ongoing success of the Corporation.

The previously mentioned analysis considers numerous historical and other factors to analyze the adequacy of the allowance and current period charges against the provision for loan losses. Management uses the analysis to compare and plot the actual level of the allowance against the aggregate amount of loans adversely classified in order to compute the estimated probable losses associated with those loans. Management then determines the current adequacy of the allowance and evaluates trends that may be developing. The volume and composition of the Corporation’s loan portfolio continue to reflect growth in commercial credits including commercial real estate loans.

As mentioned in the Loans section of this analysis, management considers commercial lending to be a competitive advantage and continues to focus on this area as part of its strategic growth initiatives. However, management recognizes and considers the fact that risk is more pronounced in these types of credits and is, to a greater degree than with other loans, driven by the economic environment in which the debtor’s business operates.

 

27


During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Corporation recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.0 million, as compared to a provision for loan losses of $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Non-accrual loans as of March 31, 2017 were $19,962 compared to $12,297 as of March 31, 2016. Net chargeoffs in the first quarter of 2017 were $800 thousand, compared to net chargeoffs of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. In the first quarter of 2017, one impaired commercial real estate loan that was impaired as of December 31, 2016 but still on accrual status as of that date was placed on nonaccrual status as a result of further deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. The additional provision for loan losses recorded in the first quarter of 2017 related to this loan was $553 thousand.

Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is reasonable and adequate to absorb probable incurred losses in the Corporation’s portfolio at March 31, 2017.

FUNDING SOURCES

The Corporation considers deposits, short-term borrowings, and term debt when evaluating funding sources. Deposits increased $8.0 million from $2.018 billion at December 31, 2016 to $2.025 billion at March 31, 2017.

Periodically, the Corporation utilizes term borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and other lenders to meet funding needs. Management plans to maintain access to short-term and long-term borrowings as an available funding source.

In September 2016, the Corporation completed a private placement of $50 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes. The notes will mature in October 2026, and will initially bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, to, but excluding, October 15, 2021, and thereafter to, but excluding, the maturity date or earlier redemption, the interest rate shall reset quarterly to an interest rate per annum equal to the then current three-month LIBOR rate plus 455 basis points. These subordinated notes were designed to qualify as Tier 2 capital under the Federal Reserve’s capital guidelines and were given an investment grade rating of BBB- by Kroll Bond Rating Agency. The Corporation injected the net proceeds from the subordinated notes into its bank subsidiary, CNB Bank, and intends to use the capital for general corporate purposes, including loan growth, additional liquidity, and working capital.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND CAPITAL RATIOS AND METRICS

The Corporation’s capital continued to provide a base for profitable growth through March 31, 2017. Total shareholders’ equity was $234.2 million at March 31, 2017 and $211.8 million at December 31, 2016. In the first three months of 2017, the Corporation earned $6.5 million and declared dividends of $2.5 million, resulting in a dividend payout ratio of 38.4% of net income.

On February 15, 2017, the Corporation announced that it successfully completed an at-the-market common stock issuance. A total of 834,896 shares of the Corporation’s common stock were sold at a weighted average price of approximately $23.96, representing gross proceeds to the Corporation of approximately $20.0 million. Net proceeds from the transaction, after the sales commission and other expenses, were approximately $19.3 million, which will be used for general corporate purposes, including loan growth, additional liquidity, and working capital.

The Corporation has complied with the standards of capital adequacy mandated by government regulations. Bank regulators have established “risk-based” capital requirements designed to measure capital adequacy. Risk-based capital ratios reflect the relative risks of various assets banks hold in their portfolios. A weight category of 0% (lowest risk assets), 20%, 50%, 100%, or 150% (highest risk assets), is assigned to each asset on the balance sheet.

The Corporation’s capital ratios, book value per share and tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are as follows:

 

     March 31, 2017     December 31, 2016  

Total risk-based capital ratio

     15.12     14.05

Tier 1 capital ratio

     11.58     10.49

Common equity tier 1 ratio

     10.51     9.41

     7.56     6.72

Book value per share

   $ 15.31     $ 14.64  

Tangible book value per share (1)

   $ 12.61     $ 11.76  

 

(1) Tangible common equity, tangible assets and tangible book value per share are non-GAAP financial measures calculated using GAAP amounts. Tangible common equity is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and core deposit intangibles from the calculation of shareholders’ equity. Tangible assets is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and core deposit intangibles from the calculation of total assets. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common equity by the number of shares outstanding. The Corporation believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information to investors that is useful in understanding its financial condition because they are additional measures used to assess capital adequacy. Because not all companies use the same calculation of tangible common equity and tangible assets, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures calculated by other companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided below (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity measures an organization’s ability to meet cash obligations as they come due. The consolidated statement of cash flows provides analysis of the Corporation’s cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, management considers that portion of the loan and investment portfolio that matures within one year to be part of the Corporation’s liquid assets. The Corporation’s liquidity is monitored by both management and the ALCO, which establishes and monitors ranges of acceptable liquidity. Management believes the Corporation’s current liquidity position is acceptable.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ACTIVITIES

Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being

 

29


used. Off balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.

The contractual amount of financial instruments with off balance sheet risk was as follows at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in thousands):

 

     March 31, 2017      December 31, 2016  
     Fixed Rate      Variable Rate      Fixed Rate      Variable Rate  

Commitments to make loans

   $ 56,870      $ 199,914      $ 57,283      $ 202,883  

Unused lines of credit

     0        112,020        0        105,779  

Standby letters of credit

     0        3,632        0        4,618  

Commitments to make loans are generally made for periods of 60 days or less. The fixed rate loan commitments at March 31, 2017 have interest rates ranging from 1.00% to 18.00% and maturities ranging from 9 months to 15 years. The fixed rate loan commitments at December 31, 2016 have interest rates ranging from 1.19% to 18.00% and maturities ranging from 3 months to 15 years.

In October 2015, the Corporation entered into a subscription agreement with Oxer BCP Mezzanine Fund, LP (“Oxer”) and committed to invest $5,000 as a limited partner in the fund. In February 2017, the Corporation entered into a subscription agreement with Tecum Capital Partners II, LP (“Tecum”) and committed to invest $3,000 as a limited partner in the fund. Oxer and Tecum are Small Business Investment Companies (SBIC) that are licensed and regulated by the Office of Investment at the Small Business Administration (SBA). The SBIC license allows SBICs to employ private capital and funds borrowed at a low cost using SBA-guaranteed securities to make investments in qualifying small businesses and similar enterprises as defined by SBA regulations. As of March 31, 2017, the Corporation has invested $2,524 of its total $8,000 commitment in Oxer and Tecum.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016

OVERVIEW OF THE INCOME STATEMENT

The Corporation had net income of $6.5 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2016. The earnings per diluted share were $0.43 in the first quarter of 2017 and $0.35 in the first quarter of 2016. The annualized return on assets and return on equity for the first quarter of 2017 are 1.00% and 11.39% compared to 0.87% and 9.65% for the first quarter of 2016.

INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE

Net interest margin on a fully tax equivalent basis was 3.67% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, unchanged from 3.67% for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, despite the inclusion of $769 thousand in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from the Corporation’s $50 million issuance of subordinated debt to help support balance sheet growth.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Corporation recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.0 million, as compared to a provision for loan losses of $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. Net chargeoffs in the first quarter of 2017 were $800 thousand, compared to net chargeoffs of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. CNB Bank net chargeoffs totaled $111 thousand and $364 thousand during the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, or .02% and .09%, respectively, of average CNB Bank loans. Holiday Financial Services Corporation is the Corporation’s consumer discount company and recorded net chargeoffs totaling $689 thousand and $831 thousand during the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

In the first quarter of 2017, one commercial real estate loan that was impaired at year end 2016 but still on accrual status was placed on nonaccrual status as a result of further deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. The additional provision for loan losses recorded in the first quarter of 2017, related to this loan, was $553 thousand.

Management believes the provision for loan losses was appropriate and the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable incurred losses in our portfolio as of March 31, 2017.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Excluding the effects of securities transactions, non-interest income was $4.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. Net realized gains on available-for-sale securities were $1.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and resulted from the sale of two structured pooled trust preferred securities with a total book value of $800 thousand. Other-than-temporary impairment charges had been recorded for these securities in prior years totaling $3.2 million. Net realized and unrealized gains on trading securities were $188 thousand during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to net realized and unrealized losses of $34 thousand during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. As a result of the Corporation’s continued focus on growing its Private Client Solutions division, wealth and asset management revenues increased 20.5% from $723 thousand in the first quarter of 2016 to $871 thousand in the first quarter of 2017.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSES

Total non-interest expenses were $17.0 million and $14.8 million during the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Included in non-interest expenses in the first quarter of 2016 were $109 thousand of non-recurring items, with merger related expenses of $42 thousand and costs associated with our core processing system upgrade of $67 thousand.

Salaries and benefits expense increased $1.5 million, or 20.2%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2016. As of March 31, 2017, the Corporation had 487 full-time equivalent staff, compared to 441 full-time

 

32


equivalent staff as of March 31, 2016. The staff added during this period included both customer-facing personnel such as business development and wealth management officers, as well as support department personnel. In addition, the Corporation retained 20 employees in connection with its acquisition of Lake National Bank in the third quarter of 2016. Occupancy expenses increased $701 thousand, or 38.1%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2016. Holiday Financial Services Corporation incurred non-recurring occupancy expenses totaling $141 thousand in the first quarter of 2017 as a result of the closure of two of its offices. The remainder of the increase in occupancy expenses is attributable to the two locations acquired from Lake National Bank in Mentor, Ohio, as well as locations in Worthington, Ohio; Ashtabula, Ohio; Blair County, Pennsylvania; and Buffalo, New York that have been opened since the end of the first quarter of 2016.

The ratio of non-interest expenses to average assets was 2.63% and 2.58% during the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

Income tax expense was $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2016, resulting in effective tax rates of 27.4% and 25.2% for the periods, respectively. The effective rates for the periods differed from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% principally as a result of tax exempt income from securities and loans as well as earnings from bank owned life insurance.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Corporation’s accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with GAAP and conform to general practices within the financial services industry. Accounting and reporting practices for the allowance for loan losses and fair value of securities are deemed critical since they involve the use of estimates and require significant management judgments. In addition, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with business combinations, including the associated goodwill that was recorded, required the use of material estimates. Application of assumptions different than those used by management could result in material changes in the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations. Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), Note 2 (Business Combination), Note 4 (Securities), and Note 5 (Loans) of the Corporation’s 2016 Form 10-K, provide detail with regard to the Corporation’s accounting for the allowance for loan losses, the fair value of securities, business combinations and loans. There have been no significant changes in the application of accounting policies since December 31, 2016.

ITEM 3

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a financial institution, the Corporation’s primary source of market risk is interest rate risk, which is the exposure to fluctuations in the Corporation’s future earnings resulting from changes in interest rates. This exposure is correlated to the repricing characteristics of the Corporation’s portfolio of assets and liabilities. Each asset or liability reprices either at maturity or during the life of the instrument.

The principal purpose of asset/liability management is to maximize current and future net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate risk while satisfying liquidity and capital requirements. Net interest income is enhanced by increasing the net interest margin and by the growth in earning assets. As a result, the primary goal of interest rate risk management is to maintain a balance between risk and reward such that net interest income is maximized while risk is maintained at an acceptable level.

The Corporation uses an asset-liability management model to measure the effect of interest rate changes on its net interest income. The Corporation’s management also reviews asset-liability maturity gap and repricing analyses regularly. The Corporation does not always attempt to achieve a precise match between interest sensitive assets and liabilities because it believes that an actively managed amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate in the management of the Corporation’s profitability.

 

33


Asset-liability modeling techniques and simulation involve assumptions and estimates that inherently cannot be measured with precision. Key assumptions in these analyses include maturity and repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities, prepayments on amortizing assets, non-maturing deposit sensitivity, and loan and deposit pricing. These assumptions are inherently uncertain due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors. However, the analyses are useful in quantifying risk and provide a relative gauge of the Corporation’s interest rate risk position over time.

Management reviews interest rate risk on a quarterly basis and reports to the ALCO. This review includes earnings shock scenarios whereby interest rates are immediately increased and decreased by 100, 300, and 400 basis points. These scenarios, detailed in the table below, indicate that there would not be a significant variance in net interest income over a one-year period due to interest rate changes; however, actual results could vary significantly. Based on the most recent data available as of December 31, 2016, all interest rate risk levels according to the model were within the tolerance limits of ALCO approved policy. In addition, the table does not take into consideration changes that management would make to realign its assets and liabilities in the event of an unexpected change in the interest rate environment. Due to the current interest rate environment, the -300 and -400 scenarios have been excluded from the table.
