Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 270. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the financial information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition and results of operations for the reported periods, and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

Codorus Valley Bancorp, Inc. (“Corporation” or “Codorus Valley”) is a one-bank holding company headquartered in York, Pennsylvania that provides a full range of banking services through its subsidiary, PeoplesBank, A Codorus Valley Company (“PeoplesBank” or “Bank”). PeoplesBank operates two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Codorus Valley Financial Advisors, Inc., which sells nondeposit investment products, and SYC Settlement Services, Inc., which provides real estate settlement services. In addition, PeoplesBank may periodically create nonbank subsidiaries for the purpose of temporarily holding foreclosed properties pending the liquidation of these properties. PeoplesBank operates under a state charter and is subject to regulation by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Corporation is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Codorus Valley and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, PeoplesBank, and two wholly-owned nonbank subsidiaries, SYC Realty Company, Inc. and CVLY Corp. SYC Realty is primarily used to hold foreclosed properties obtained by PeoplesBank and was inactive during the period ended March 31, 2015. CVLY Corp. was formed in connection with the acquisition of Madison Bancorp, Inc. The accounts of CVB Statutory Trust No. 1 and No. 2 are not included in the consolidated financial statements as discussed in Note 8—Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt. All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounting and reporting policies of Codorus Valley and subsidiaries conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been followed on a consistent basis.

These consolidated statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

In accordance with FASB ASC 855, the Corporation evaluated the events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date of March 31, 2015 and through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, for items of potential recognition or disclosure.

Table of Contents

Loans

Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff, are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances less amounts charged off, net of an allowance for loan losses and any deferred fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Generally, loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield (interest income) over the contractual life of the loan. The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into commercial and consumer loans. Commercial loans consist of the following industry classes: builder & developer, commercial real estate investor, residential real estate investor, hotel/motel, wholesale & retail, agriculture, manufacturing and all other. Consumer loans consist of the following classes: residential mortgage, home equity and all other.

For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan may be currently performing. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Interest received on nonaccrual loans, including impaired loans, generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to the Corporation’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. Generally, loans 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. The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

Acquired Loans

Acquired loans are initially recorded at their acquisition date fair values. The carryover of allowance for loan losses is prohibited as any credit losses in the loans are included in the determination of the fair value of the loans at the acquisition date. Fair values for acquired loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that involves assumptions and judgments as to credit risk, prepayment risk, liquidity risk, default rates, loss severity, payment speeds, collateral values and discount rate.

For acquired loans that are not deemed impaired at acquisition, credit discounts representing principal losses expected over the life of the loan are a component of the initial fair value and amortized over the life of the asset. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the methods used to estimate the required allowance for loan losses on these loans is similar to originated loans. However, the Corporation records a provision for loan losses only when the required allowance for loan losses exceeds any remaining credit discount. The remaining differences between the acquisition date fair value and the unpaid principal balance at the date of acquisition are recorded in interest income over the life of the loan.

- 9 -

Table of Contents

Acquired loans that have evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination and for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the Company will be unable to collect all contractually required payments are accounted for as impaired loans under ASC 310-30. The excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable discount and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loans. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the non-accretable discount. The non-accretable discount represents estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loan. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows require the Company to evaluate the need for an allowance for loan losses on these loans. Subsequent improvements in expected cash flows result in the reversal of a corresponding amount of the non-accretable discount which the Company then reclassifies as an accretable discount that is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loans using the interest method.

The following is a summary of acquired impaired loans from the merger, as discussed in Note 2-Merger With Madison Bancorp, Inc.:


(dollars in thousands)	January 16, 2015
Contractually required principal and interest at acquisition	$	1,961
Contractual cash flows not expected to be collected		1,185
Expected cash flows at acquisition		776
Interest component of expected cash flows		160
Basis in acquired loans at acquisition - estimated fair value	$	616

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents the Corporation’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectable are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely. While the Corporation attributes a portion of the allowance to individual loans and groups of loans that it evaluates and determines to be impaired, the allowance is available to cover all charge-offs that arise from the loan portfolio.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered by management to be adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. The Corporation performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on the Corporation’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

- 10 -

Table of Contents

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired, generally substandard and nonaccrual loans. For loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the collateral value (or discounted cash flows or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers pools of loans by loan class, including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans such as residential real estate, home equity and other consumer loans. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based upon historical loss rates for each of these classes of loans, adjusted for qualitative (environmental) risk factors. Historical loss rates are based on a two year rolling average of net charge-offs. Qualitative risk factors that supplement historical losses in the evaluation of loan pools include:

●

Changes in national and local economies and business conditions

●

Changes in the value of collateral for collateral dependent loans

●

Changes in the level of concentrations of credit

●

Changes in the volume and severity of classified and past due loans

●

Changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio

●

Changes in collection, charge-off, and recovery procedures

●

Changes in underwriting standards and loan terms

●

Changes in the quality of the loan review system

●

Changes in the experience/ability of lending management and key lending staff

●

Regulatory and legal regulations that could affect the level of credit losses

●

Other pertinent environmental factors

Each factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on the Corporation’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect the Corporation’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the loan portfolio.

As disclosed in Note 5—Loans, the Corporation engages in commercial and consumer lending. Loans are made within the Corporation’s primary market area and surrounding areas, and include the purchase of whole loan or participation interests in loans from other financial institutions or private equity companies. Commercial loans, which pose the greatest risk of loss to the Corporation, whether originated or purchased, are generally secured by real estate. Within the broad commercial loan segment, the builder & developer and commercial real estate investor loan classes generally present a higher level of risk than other commercial loan classifications. This greater risk is due to several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effect of general economic conditions on income producing properties, unstable real estate prices and the dependency upon successful construction and sale or operation of the real estate project. Within the consumer loan segment, junior (i.e., second) liens present a slightly higher risk to the Corporation because economic and housing market conditions can adversely affect the underlying value of the collateral and the ability of some borrowers to service their debt.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered in determining impairment include payment status and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. The Corporation determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Loans that are deemed impaired are evaluated for impairment loss based on the net realizable value of the collateral, as applicable. Loans that are not collateral dependent will rely on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate to determine impairment loss. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans such as residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans are collectively evaluated for impairment, unless they are classified as impaired.

- 11 -

Table of Contents

An allowance for loan losses is established for an impaired commercial loan if its carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. For commercial loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals of the underlying collateral. When a real estate secured 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 most recent appraisal and the condition of the property. Appraisals are generally discounted to provide for selling costs and other factors to determine an estimate of the net realizable value of the property. For commercial loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets. In instances when specific consumer related loans become impaired, they may be partially or fully charged off, which obviates the need for a specific allowance.

Loans whose terms are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings if the Corporation grants borrowers experiencing financial difficulties concessions that it would not otherwise consider. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring may involve an interest rate that is below the market rate given the associated credit risk of the loan or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date. Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are designated as impaired. Non-accrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for a reasonable period of time, generally six consecutive months after modification and future payments are reasonably assured.

Banking regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Corporation to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to the Corporation. Based on an analysis of the loan portfolio, the Corporation believes that the level of the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2015 is adequate.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Foreclosed real estate, included in other assets, is comprised of property acquired through a foreclosure proceeding or property that is acquired through in-substance foreclosure. Foreclosed real estate is initially recorded at fair value minus estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Any difference between the carrying value and the new cost basis is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Appraisals, based upon an independent third party, are generally used to determine fair value. After foreclosure, management reviews valuations at least quarterly and adjusts the asset to the lower of cost or fair value minus estimated costs to sell through a valuation allowance or a charge-off. Costs related to the improvement of foreclosed real estate are generally capitalized until the real estate reaches a saleable condition subject to fair value limitations. Revenue and expense from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in noninterest expense. When a foreclosed real estate asset is ultimately sold, any gain or loss on the sale is included in the income statement as a component of noninterest expense. At March 31, 2015, foreclosed real estate, net of allowance, was $2,385,000, compared to $2,542,000 as of December 31, 2014. Included within loans receivable as of March 31, 2015 was a recorded investment of $507,000 of consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties, for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.

Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible Assets

Goodwill arising from acquisitions is not amortized, but is subject to an annual impairment test to determine if an impairment loss has occurred. Significant judgment is applied when goodwill is assessed for impairment. This judgment includes developing cash flow projections, selecting appropriate discount rates, identifying relevant market comparables, incorporating general economic and market conditions, and selecting an appropriate control premium. At March 31, 2015, the Corporation does not have any indicators of potential impairment of goodwill.

Core deposit intangibles represent the value assigned to demand, interest checking, money market, and savings accounts acquired as part of an acquisition. The core deposit intangible value represents the future economic benefit of potential cost savings from acquiring core deposits as part of an acquisition compared to the cost of alternative funding sources and the alternative cost to grow a similar core deposit base. The core deposit intangible asset resulting from the merger with Madison Bancorp, Inc. was determined to have a definite life and is being amortized using the sum of the years’ digits method over 10 years.

Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

This standards update provides a framework that replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2-Merger With Madison Bancorp, Inc.

On July 22, 2014, the Corporation entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Madison Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Madison”), and CVLY Corp., a Pennsylvania corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation (“Acquisition Subsidiary”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Madison agreed to cause its wholly-owned subsidiary, Madison Square Federal Savings Bank (“MSFSB”), to merge with and into the Corporation’s wholly-owned subsidiary PeoplesBank, with PeoplesBank being the surviving bank in the Bank Merger. The acquisition of Madison and MSFSB was completed on January 16, 2015, as reported on a Form 8-K filed on the same date. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of Madison common stock was converted into the right to receive $22.90 in cash, without interest, and each outstanding option to purchase Madison common stock was converted into the right to receive cash based on a formula set forth in the Merger Agreement. Total consideration paid was $14,425,000, which included the purchase of 608,116 shares of Madison common stock as well as the cash out of 41,270 options to purchase Madison common stock with an average exercise price of $10.81 per share.

Table of Contents

The merger is being accounted for using acquisition accounting, which requires the Corporation to allocate total consideration transferred to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective fair value at the merger date, with any remaining excess consideration being recorded as goodwill. The fair value estimates are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the transaction if additional information relative to the closing date fair values becomes available. As the Corporation continues to analyze the acquired assets and liabilities, there may be adjustments to the recorded carrying values. The table below presents the detail of the total acquisition cost as well as a summary of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded at their estimated fair value, as of January 16, 2015.

Liabilities Assumed:
Deposits		120,545
Other liabilities		1,639
Total liabilities assumed				122,184

Net goodwill resulting from merger			$	2,421

The fair value of total assets acquired as a result of the merger totaled $134,188,000, which included $1,396,000 of securities which were subsequently sold in the first quarter of 2015. Additionally, other assets of $17,447,000 included $15,256,000 of receivables related to investment securities sold prior to the merger, pending receipt of sales proceeds. The transaction also resulted in a core deposit intangible of $39,000 and goodwill of $2,421,000. Goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of synergies and the cost savings expected to result from the combining of operations and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Note 3-Securities

A summary of securities available-for-sale at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is provided below. The securities available-for-sale portfolio is generally comprised of high quality debt instruments, principally obligations of the United States government or agencies thereof and investments in the obligations of states and municipalities. The majority of municipal bonds in the portfolio are general obligation bonds, which can draw upon multiple sources of revenue, including taxes, for payment. Only a few bonds are revenue bonds, which are dependent upon a single revenue stream for payment, but they are for critical services such as water and sewer. In many cases, municipal debt issues are insured or, in the case of school districts of selected states, backed by specific loss reserves. At March 31, 2015, the fair value of the municipal bond portfolio was concentrated in the states of Pennsylvania at 46 percent and Texas at 16 percent.

Table of Contents

The unrealized losses of $19,000 at March 31, 2015 within the less than 12 months category were attributable to one U.S. agency security, one U.S. agency mortgage-backed security, and eight state and municipal securities. The unrealized losses of $39,000 within the 12 months or more category were attributable to two U.S. agency securities and four state and municipal securities. All of the securities with unrealized losses have been evaluated and determined to be investment grade.

Securities available-for-sale are analyzed quarterly for possible other-than-temporary impairment. The analysis considers, among other factors: 1) whether the Corporation has the intent to sell its securities prior to market recovery or maturity; 2) whether it is more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell its securities prior to market recovery or maturity; 3) default rates/history by security type; 4) third-party securities ratings; 5) third-party guarantees; 6) subordination; 7) payment delinquencies; 8) nature of the issuer; and 9) current financial news.

The Corporation believes that unrealized losses at March 31, 2015 were primarily the result of changes in market interest rates and that it has the ability to hold these investments for a time necessary to recover the amortized cost. Through March 31, 2015 the Corporation has collected all interest and principal on its investment securities as scheduled. The Corporation believes that collection of the contractual principal and interest is probable and, therefore, all impairment is considered to be temporary.

Note 4—Restricted Investment in Bank Stocks

Restricted stock, which represents required investments in the common stock of correspondent banks, is carried at cost and, as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, consisted primarily of the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLBP) and, to a lesser degree, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (ACBB). Under the FHLBP’s Capital Plan, PeoplesBank is required to maintain a minimum member stock investment, as a condition of becoming and remaining a member and as a condition of obtaining borrowings from the FHLBP. The FHLBP uses a formula to determine the minimum stock investment, which is based on the volume of loans outstanding, unused borrowing capacity and other factors.

The FHLBP paid dividends during the periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. The FHLBP restricts the repurchase of the excess capital stock of member banks. The amount of excess capital stock that can be repurchased from any member is currently the lesser of five percent of the member’s total capital stock outstanding or its excess capital stock outstanding.

Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 942. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. Using the FHLBP as an example, the determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of cost is influenced by criteria such as: (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLBP as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLBP and the length of time this situation has persisted; (2) commitments by the FHLBP to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLBP; and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLBP. Management believes no impairment charge was necessary related to the restricted stock during the periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

Loan Portfolio Composition

The table below provides the composition of the loan portfolio at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The portfolio is comprised of two segments, commercial and consumer loans. The commercial loan segment is disaggregated by industry class which allows the Corporation to monitor risk and performance. Those industries representing the largest dollar investment and most risk are listed separately. The “Other” commercial loans category is comprised of various industries. The consumer related segment is comprised of residential mortgages, home equity and other consumer loans. The Corporation has not engaged in sub-prime residential mortgage originations.

Loan Risk Ratings

The Corporation’s internal risk rating system follows regulatory guidance as to risk classifications and definitions. Every approved loan is assigned a risk rating. Generally, risk ratings for commercial related loans and residential mortgages held for investment are determined by a formal evaluation of risk factors performed by the Corporation’s underwriting staff. For consumer loans, and commercial loans up to $750,000, the Corporation uses third-party credit scoring software models for risk rating purposes. The loan portfolio is monitored on a continuous basis by loan officers, loan review personnel and senior management. Adjustments of loan risk ratings are generally performed by the Special Asset Committee, which includes senior management. The Committee, which meets monthly, makes changes, as appropriate, to risk ratings when it becomes aware of credit events such as payment delinquency, cessation of a business or project, bankruptcy or death of the borrower, or changes in collateral value.

- 19 -

Table of Contents

The Corporation uses ten risk ratings to grade loans. The first seven ratings, representing the lowest risk, are combined and given a “pass” rating. A pass rating is a satisfactory credit rating, which applies to a loan that is expected to perform in accordance with the loan agreement and has a low probability of loss. A loan rated “special mention” has a potential weakness which may, if not corrected, weaken the loan or inadequately protect the Corporation’s position at some future date. A loan rated “substandard” is inadequately protected by the current net worth or paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged. A substandard loan has a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that could jeopardize liquidation of the loan, which exposes the Corporation to loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. A loan classified “doubtful” has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and value highly improbable and the possibility of loss extremely high. When circumstances indicate that collection of the loan is doubtful, the loan is risk rated “nonaccrual,” the accrual of interest income is discontinued, and any unpaid interest previously credited to income is reversed. The table below does not include the regulatory classification of “doubtful,” which is subsumed within the nonaccrual risk rating category, nor does it include the regulatory classification of “loss” because the Corporation promptly charges off known loan losses.

The table below presents a summary of loan risk ratings by loan class at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Impaired Loans

The table below presents a summary of impaired loans at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Generally, impaired loans are loans risk rated substandard and nonaccrual or classified as troubled debt restructurings. An allowance is established for individual commercial loans where the Corporation has doubt as to full recovery of the outstanding principal balance. Typically, impaired consumer loans are partially or fully charged off obviating the need for a specific allowance. The recorded investment represents outstanding unpaid principal loan balances adjusted for charge-offs.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) are designated impaired and arise when the Corporation grants borrowers experiencing financial difficulties concessions that it would not otherwise consider. Concessions granted with respect to these loans generally involve an extension of the maturity date or a below market interest rate relative to new debt with similar credit risk. Generally, these loans are secured by real estate. If repayment of the loan is determined to be collateral dependent, the loan is evaluated for impairment loss based on the fair value of the collateral. For loans that are not collateral dependent, the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate, is used to determine any impairment loss.

A nonaccrual TDR represents a nonaccrual loan, as previously defined, which includes an economic concession. Nonaccrual TDRs are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six consecutive payments after the modification and future principal and interest payments are reasonably assured. In contrast, an accruing TDR represents a loan that, at the time of the modification, has a demonstrated history of payments and management believes that future loan payments are reasonably assured under the modified terms.

There were no loans whose terms have been modified under TDRs during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. There were no defaults during the three months ended March 31, 2015 for TDRs entered into during the previous 12 month period.

PeoplesBank’s long-term debt obligations to the FHLBP are fixed rate instruments. Under terms of a blanket collateral agreement with the FHLBP, the obligations are secured by FHLBP stock and PeoplesBank qualifying loan receivables, principally real estate secured loans.

In June 2006, Codorus Valley formed CVB Statutory Trust No. 2, a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary whose sole purpose was to facilitate a pooled trust preferred debt issuance of $7,217,000. In November 2004, Codorus Valley formed CVB Statutory Trust No. 1 to facilitate a pooled trust preferred debt issuance of $3,093,000. The Corporation owns all of the common stock of these nonbank subsidiaries, and the debentures are the sole assets of the Trusts. The accounts of both Trusts are not consolidated for financial reporting purposes in accordance with FASB ASC 810. For regulatory capital purposes, all of the Corporation’s trust preferred securities qualified as Tier 1 capital for all reported periods. Trust preferred securities are subject to capital limitations under the FDIC’s risk-based capital guidelines. The Corporation used the net proceeds from these offerings to fund its operations.

Note 9—Regulatory Matters

Codorus Valley and PeoplesBank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if imposed, could have a material adverse effect on Codorus Valley’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Codorus Valley and PeoplesBank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators.

On July 2, 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System finalized its rule implementing the Basel III regulatory capital framework, which the FDIC adopted on July 9, 2013. Under the rule, minimum requirements increased both the quantity and quality of capital held by banking organizations. Consistent with the Basel III framework, the rule included a new minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5 percent, and a common equity Tier 1 conservation buffer of 2.5 percent of risk-weighted assets, that applies to all supervised financial institutions, which is to be phased in over a four year period beginning January 1, 2016, with the full 2.5 percent required as of January 1, 2019. The rule also raised the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4 percent to 6 percent, and includes a minimum leverage ratio of 4 percent for all banking organizations. The new rule also increased the risk weights for past-due loans, certain commercial real estate loans, and some equity exposures, and makes selected other changes in risk weights and credit conversion factors. The rule for smaller, less complex institutions, including the Corporation, took effect January 1, 2015.

Note 10—Shareholders’ Equity

Private Placement of Common Stock

On March 26, 2014, the Corporation completed a private placement of 650,000 shares of its common stock, par value $2.50 per share, pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) dated March 26, 2014, by and among the Corporation and seven accredited investors. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the accredited investors also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Corporation, under which the Corporation agreed to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement covering the resale of the common stock issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. This registration statement was filed with the SEC on April 25, 2014. The full text and form of both the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement are attached to the Corporation’s related Form 8-K filed on March 27, 2014.

- 29 -

Table of Contents

The Corporation raised net proceeds of approximately $12,500,000 resulting from the gross amount of the private placement transaction of $13,000,000, less related issuance costs of approximately $500,000. On May 30, 2014, the Corporation used the net proceeds from the private placement, and additional cash, to redeem $13,000,000 of the $25,000,000 in outstanding shares of the Corporation’s preferred stock held by the United States Department of the Treasury.

Preferred Stock Issued under the US Treasury’s Small Business Lending Fund Program

The U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) has a capital investment in the Corporation pursuant to the Corporation’s participation in the Treasury’s Small Business Lending Funding Program (“SBLF Program”). In August 2011, the Corporation sold to the Treasury, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000,000, 25,000 shares of non-cumulative, perpetual preferred stock, Series B, $1,000 liquidation value, $2.50 par value. On May 30, 2014, the Corporation redeemed 13,000 of the 25,000 outstanding shares of the Corporation’s preferred stock that had been issued to the Treasury, leaving 12,000 outstanding shares representing $12,000,000 of preferred stock outstanding as of March 31, 2015. The May 30, 2014 preferred stock redemption was funded primarily with the funds the Corporation raised in the March 26, 2014 private placement of its common stock.

The annualized dividend rate on the preferred stock issued under the SBLF Program was 1 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Based on the increase in the qualified small business lending portfolio balance over the baseline level at September 30, 2013, the dividend rate will remain at 1 percent through February 18, 2016. Thereafter, under the terms of the Series B preferred stock, the dividend rate will increase to 9% (including a quarterly lending incentive fee of 0.5%). Additional information about the Series B preferred stock is disclosed in Note 10—Shareholders’ Equity in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Common Stock Dividend

Periodically, the Corporation distributes stock dividends on its common stock. The Corporation distributed a 5 percent stock dividend on December 9, 2014 which resulted in the issuance of 275,900 additional common shares.

Note 11—Contingent Liabilities

There are no legal proceedings pending against Codorus Valley Bancorp, Inc. or any of its subsidiaries which are expected to have a material impact upon the consolidated financial position and/or operating results of the Corporation other than routine litigation incidental to the business. Management is not aware of any proceedings known or contemplated by government authorities.

Note 12—Guarantees

Codorus Valley does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than its standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by PeoplesBank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Generally, all letters of credit, when issued, have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as those that are involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Corporation generally holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments. The Corporation had $16,808,000 of standby letters of credit outstanding on March 31, 2015, compared to $19,651,000 on December 31, 2014. Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payments required under the corresponding letters of credit. The amount of the liability as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued, was not material. Many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon and, therefore, generally do not present significant liquidity risk to the Corporation or PeoplesBank.

Note 13—Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Corporation uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in sales transactions on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective period-ends and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each period end.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that utilize model-based techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement; inputs to the valuation methodology that utilize model-based techniques for which significant assumptions are not observable in the market; or inputs to the valuation methodology that require significant management judgment or estimation, some of which may be internally developed.

Since management maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value, an asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management reviews and updates the fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Securities available-for-sale

The fair values of investment securities were measured using information from a third-party pricing service. The pricing service uses quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique, used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities, but rather, by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. At least annually, the Corporation reviews a random sample of the pricing information received from the third-party pricing service by comparing it to price quotes from third-party brokers. Historically, price deviations have been immaterial.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Impaired loans

Impaired loans are those that are accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 310, in which the Corporation has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These loans are included as Level 3 fair values, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. At March 31, 2015, the fair value of impaired loans with a valuation allowance or charge-off was $4,598,000, which is net of valuation allowances of $1,716,000 and charge-offs of $627,000. At December 31, 2014 the fair value of impaired loans with a valuation allowance or charge-off was $3,058,000, which is net of valuation allowances of $2,512,000 and charge-offs of $26,000.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Other real estate property acquired through foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value of the property at the transfer date less estimated selling cost. Subsequently, other real estate owned is carried at the lower of its carrying value or the fair value less estimated selling cost. Fair value is usually determined based upon an independent third-party appraisal of the property or occasionally upon a recent sales offer. At March 31, 2015, the fair value of foreclosed real estate with a valuation allowance or charge-off was $1,157,000, which is net of valuation allowances of $1,668,000 and charge-offs of $59,000. At December 31, 2014, the carrying value of foreclosed real estate with a valuation allowance or charge-off was $1,198,000, which is net of valuation allowances of $1,687,000 and no charge-offs.

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the Corporation’s financial instruments as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

Cash and cash equivalents

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities available for sale

The fair value of securities available for sale is determined in accordance with the methods described under FASB ASC Topic 820 as described above.

Restricted investment in bank stocks

The carrying amount of restricted investment in bank stocks is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The Corporation is required to maintain minimum investment balances in these stocks. These stocks are not actively traded and, therefore, have no readily determinable market value.

- 33 -

Table of Contents

Loans held for sale

The fair value of loans held for sale is determined, when possible, using quoted secondary-market prices. If no such quoted prices exist, the fair value of a loan is determined using quoted prices for a similar loan or loans, adjusted for the specific attributes of that loan.

Loans, net

The fair value of loans, excluding all impaired loans, is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using the current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans were first segregated by type such as commercial, real estate, and consumer, and were further segmented into fixed and variable rate. Projected future cash flows are calculated based on contractual maturity or call dates. For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair value is based on carrying value.

Interest receivable

The carrying value of interest receivable is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values of time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow analyses. The discount rates used are based on rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. The fair values of variable rate time deposits that reprice frequently are based on carrying value. The fair values of time deposit liabilities do not take into consideration the value of the Corporation’s long-term relationships with depositors, which may have significant value.

Short-term borrowings

For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Long-term debt

Long-term debt includes FHLBP advances (Level 2) and junior subordinated debt (Level 3). The fair value of FHLBP advances is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLBP advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices are obtained from this active market and represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party. The fair value of junior subordinated debt is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on market rates and spread characteristics of similar debt with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity.

Interest payable

The carrying value of interest payable is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Off-balance sheet instruments

Off-balance sheet instruments consist of lending commitments and letters of credit are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar arrangements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and counterparties’ credit standing. These amounts were not considered material.

Note 14—Assets and Liabilities Subject to Offsetting

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”)

PeoplesBank enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same securities the next business day. These repurchase agreements are accounted for as a collateralized financing arrangement (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability (short-term borrowings) in the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements of condition, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective securities asset accounts. In other words, there is no offsetting or netting of the securities with the repurchase agreement liabilities.

Codorus Valley’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost entirely of PeoplesBank’s financial condition and results of operations. Current performance does not guarantee, and may not be indicative of, similar performance in the future.

Forward-looking Statements

Management of the Corporation has made forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements may be subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. When words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates” or similar expressions occur in the Form 10-Q, management is making forward-looking statements.

Note that many factors, some of which are discussed elsewhere in this report and in the documents that are incorporated by reference, could affect the future financial results of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, both individually and collectively, and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

●

Operating, legal and regulatory risks;

●

Credit risk, including an increase in nonperforming assets requiring loss provisions and the incurrence of carrying costs related to nonperforming assets;

Interest rate fluctuations which could increase our cost of funds or decrease our yield on earning assets and therefore reduce our net interest income;

●

Other-than-temporary declines in the market value of investment securities;

●

Unavailability of capital when needed, or availability at less than favorable terms;

●

Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential client or customer information, whether through a breach of our computer systems or otherwise, which may adversely affect the Corporation’s operations, net income or reputation;

●

Inability to achieve merger-related synergies, and difficulties in integrating the business and operations of acquired institutions;

●

A prolonged economic downturn;

●

Political and competitive forces affecting banking, securities, asset management and credit services businesses;

●

The effects of and changes in the rate of FDIC premiums, including special assessments;

●

Future legislative or administrative changes to U.S. governmental capital programs;

●

Enacted financial reform legislation, e.g., Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which may have a significant impact on the Corporation’s business and operating results; and

●

The risk that management’s analysis of these risks and forces could be incorrect and/or that the strategies developed to address them could be unsuccessful.

The Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly revise or update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this report.

The decrease in earnings resulted primarily from additional noninterest expenses in the first quarter of 2015 related to the Corporation’s acquisition of Madison Bancorp, Inc. on January 16, 2015. Nonrecurring merger-specific costs in the first quarter of 2015 totaled $425,000 and included expenses for systems and data conversion, severance payments, and legal activities. Also, the four Maryland financial centers acquired from Madison added over 20 new employees, which significantly contributed to the $944,000 increase in personnel expenses. The increase in personnel expenses was also impacted by the addition of new employees for the two recently opened financial centers in Shrewsbury, PA and Camp Hill, PA. The $369,000 increase in occupancy, furniture and equipment costs was due primarily to the addition of six financial centers since the first quarter of 2014.

●

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2015 increased $1,257,000 or 12 percent compared to the first quarter of 2014, principally due to the interest earning assets acquired in the Madison transaction, which were mostly residential mortgages, and an increase in the volume of commercial loans from core business growth.

●

The Corporation’s net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis) for the first quarter of 2015 was 3.93 percent, compared to 3.97 percent for the first quarter of 2014. PeoplesBank continues to have success in growing low-cost core deposits, while maintaining reasonable loan yields in a highly competitive low interest rate environment.

●

The provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2015 was $1,000,000 as compared to a provision of $550,000 for the first quarter of 2014. The provision was provided to support growth in the loan portfolio and maintain the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Despite the increased provision for the first quarter of 2015, the allowance as a percentage of total loans decreased to 1.12 percent as of March 31, 2015 as compared to 1.21 percent at December 31, 2014 and 1.18 percent at March 31, 2014. The impact of the increased provision on the allowance for loan losses was partially offset by charge-offs recorded in the first quarter of 2015 as a result of confirmed losses on two impaired commercial credits. Also, no allowance for loan losses was added relative to the $77,000,000 of loans acquired from Madison in January 2015 as such loans were recorded on the Corporation’s balance sheet at fair value in accordance with acquisition accounting principles.

●	Due to continued collection and legal workout efforts, the Corporation’s nonperforming asset ratio was 0.99% as of March 31, 2015, reflecting a favorable year-over-year decrease when compared to the 1.98% nonperforming asset ratio as of March 31, 2014.

●

Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2015 increased $627,000 or 36 percent compared to the first quarter of 2014. The increase reflects growth in wealth management income from continued growth in trust assets under management, and sales of non-deposit investment products. Gains on mortgages sold also increased, as did service fee income on deposit accounts. The Corporation also realized gains on the sales of two investment securities in the first quarter of 2015.

●

The provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2015 increased to $1,012,000 as compared to $950,000 for the first quarter of 2014. Despite having less pre-tax income for the first three months of 2015, the Corporation’s income earned on tax-exempt loan and investment assets decreased to $900,000 in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $1,015,000 for the first quarter of 2014, resulting in a decrease of the related tax benefit. Also, certain merger-related expenses incurred by the Corporation in the first quarter of 2015 are expected to be nondeductible for federal tax purposes.

On March 31, 2015, the Corporation’s total assets were over $1.3 billion, representing a 9 percent increase compared to December 31, 2014. Asset growth for the quarter primarily was attributable to the Madison Bancorp acquisition, which added approximately $134,000,000 of assets to Codorus Valley, as well as $121,000,000 of deposits.

The Corporation’s capital level remained sound as evidenced by regulatory capital ratios that exceed current regulatory requirements for well capitalized institutions. As of March 31, 2015, the Corporation’s capital calculations and ratios reflect the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital framework, which became effective on January 1, 2015.

The schedule below presents selected performance metrics for the first quarter of both 2015 and 2014. The 2014 per share computations include the effect of the 5 percent common stock dividend declared and distributed in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Income Statement Analysis

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ending March 31, 2015 was $11,678,000, an increase of $1,257,000 or 12 percent compared to net interest income of $10,421,000 for the first quarter of 2014. The increase was due primarily to higher interest income from an increase in the average volume of interest earning assets, including those acquired from Madison in the first quarter of 2015. The Corporation’s net interest margin, computed as interest income (tax-equivalent basis) annualized as a percentage of average interest earning assets for the quarter, was 3.93 percent for the first quarter of 2015, which was comparable to 3.97 percent for the same period in 2014.

Interest income for the first quarter of 2015 totaled $13,686,000, an increase of $1,273,000 or 10 percent above the first quarter of 2014. The increase was attributable primarily to the interest earning assets acquired in the Madison transaction, including $77,000,000 of loans (the majority of which were residential mortgages). The Corporation also experienced an increase in commercial loans from core business growth. Interest earning assets averaged $1.23 billion and yielded 4.59 percent (tax equivalent basis) for the first quarter of 2015, compared to $1.10 billion and 4.70 percent, respectively, for the first quarter of 2014. While the volume of earning assets increased, its effect on interest income was slightly muted by lower loan yields, a reflection of competitive loan pricing in the continuing low interest rate environment.

The average balance of investment securities was $212,000,000 for the first quarter of 2015, a decrease of $15,000,000 or 7 percent compared to the average balance of $227,000,000 for the same period in 2014. The decrease related to net investment maturities, and the sale of two securities, in the first quarter, to provide funds for loan growth and acquisition-related costs and funding requirements. The Corporation acquired $1,396,000 of investment securities from Madison Bancorp. The majority of Madison’s portfolio was sold prior to the January 16, 2015 acquisition date.

Interest expense for the first quarter of 2015 totaled $2,008,000, a slight increase of $16,000 or less than 1 percent above interest expense of $1,992,000 for the first quarter of 2014. A decrease in the overall cost of deposits was more than offset by additional interest expense from an increase in the average volume of borrowings outstanding.

Average interest-bearing deposits for the first quarter of 2015 totaled $922,000,000, an increase of $95,000,000 or 11 percent compared to the first quarter of 2014. This increase was primarily due to $80,000,000 of time deposits and $24,000,000 of savings deposits from the Madison Bancorp acquisition in January 2015. Decreases in the rate of interest paid on deposits in the low-interest rate environment more than offset the additional interest expense attributable to this increase in the volume of deposits. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits in the first quarter of 2015 was 0.72 percent, a decrease from the average rate of 0.82 percent paid on deposits during the first quarter of 2014. Also, the Corporation experienced a favorable increase in the volume of noninterest-bearing deposits, with the average volume for the first quarter of 2015 increasing to $128,000,000 as compared to $105,000,000 for the same period in 2014.

Long-term debt averaged $90,000,000 for the first quarter of 2015, compared to a $77,000,000 average for the first quarter of 2014. The increase in long-term debt was comprised of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. These advances were low rate borrowings with intermediate term bullet maturities that supplement deposit funding and provide a hedge against rising market interest rates. The cost of these long-term borrowings averaged 1.47 percent for the first quarter of 2015, a slight decrease as compared to a rate of 1.50 percent for the first quarter of 2014.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is an expense charged to earnings to cover the estimated losses attributable to uncollected loans. The provision reflects management’s judgment of an appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses. For the first quarter of 2015, the provision for loan losses was $1,000,000 as compared to a provision of $550,000 for the first quarter of 2014. The provision was provided to support growth in the loan portfolio and maintain the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Despite the increased provision for the first quarter of 2015, the allowance as a percentage of total loans decreased to 1.12 percent as of March 31, 2015 as compared to 1.21 percent at December 31, 2014 and 1.18 percent at March 31, 2014. The impact of the increased provision for the first quarter of 2015 was partially offset by charge-offs recorded in the same quarter as a result of confirmed losses of $562,000 on two impaired commercial credits. Also, no allowance for loan losses was added relative to the $77,000,000 of loans acquired from Madison in January 2015 as such loans were recorded on the Corporation’s balance sheet at fair value in accordance with acquisition accounting principles.

More information about the allowance for loan losses can be found in this report under the caption Allowance for Loan Losses on page 51.

*nm – not meaningful

The discussion that follows addresses changes in selected categories of noninterest income.

Trust and investment services fees—The $74,000 or 14 percent increase in trust and investment services fees was due primarily to an increase in the volume of assets under management from both growth in traditional trust business and appreciation in the market value of managed accounts, as well as rate increases in certain wealth management fees.

Income from mutual fund, annuity and insurance sales—The $23,000 or 17 percent increase in income from the sale of mutual fund, annuity and insurance products by Codorus Valley Financial Advisors, Inc. (“CVFA”), a subsidiary of PeoplesBank, was primarily a result of increases in sales volume and non-deposit investment assets managed for the first quarter of 2015.

Service charges on deposit accounts—The $79,000 or 12 percent increase in service charge income on deposit accounts was due to an increase in the volume of demand deposit accounts subject to fees, including those added from the Madison acquisition in January 2015, and from applied rate increases on certain service charge categories.

Net gain on sales of loans held for sale—The $71,000 or 89 percent increase in gains from the sale of residential mortgage loans held for sale resulted from a significant increase in fixed-rate mortgage originations and sales for the first quarter of 2015, while the origination and sales activity for the first quarter of 2014 reflected a decline in refinancing demand and volume.

Gain on sales of securities— The first quarter of 2015 had $371,000 in gains from the sale of two securities, one U.S. agency and one municipal security, totaling $5,000,000. Comparatively, there were no sales of investment securities in the first quarter of 2014. The gains on the sales of the securities partially offset the impact of nonrecurring noninterest expenses related to the Madison acquisition.

*nm – not meaningful

The discussion that follows addresses changes in selected categories of noninterest expense.

Personnel—The $944,000 or 22 percent increase in personnel expense was due largely the impact of adding over 20 new employees from the four Maryland financial centers acquired from Madison, as well as the addition of new employees for the two recently opened financial centers in Shrewsbury, PA and Camp Hill, PA. Additionally, the expense includes an accrual for the employment agreement liability related to the separation of the Corporation’s former Chief Operating Officer as reported on the Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2015.

Occupancy; furniture and equipment – The $369,000 or 33 percent increase in combined occupancy, furniture and equipment costs was due primarily to the addition of six financial centers since the first quarter of 2014, including four from the Madison acquisition.

Marketing—The $88,000 or 29 percent decrease in marketing expenses reflects the Corporation incurring additional marketing costs in the first quarter of 2014 for special activities promoting the 150th anniversary of PeoplesBank in 2014.

Telephone—The $15,000 or 10 percent increase in telephone expenses reflects the additional system costs for the new employees and lines associated with the six new financial centers added since the first quarter of 2014, including those from the Corporation’s acquisition of Madison Bancorp in January 2015.

- 44 -

Table of Contents

External data processing—The $80,000 or 40 percent increase in external data processing expenses reflects the additional third-party processing costs for new systems, applications and licensing costs to support data processing and information security requirements for the new employees and customers from the addition of six new financial centers since the first quarter of 2014, including those added from the Corporation’s acquisition of Madison Bancorp in January 2015.

Merger related - Nonrecurring merger-specific costs related to the Corporation’s acquisition of Madison Bancorp in the first quarter of 2015 totaled $425,000 and included expenses for systems and data conversion, severance payments, and legal activities.

Foreclosed real estate—The $37,000 or 46 percent increase in foreclosed real estate expenses was primarily the result of provision expenses during the first quarter of 2015 to adjust the expected net realized value of certain foreclosed real estate as a result of property sales efforts and updated appraisals received.

Other —Other expense, comprised of many underlying expenses, increased $189,000 reflecting the costs of several activities in the first quarter of 2015, including new checkbooks for demand deposit customers from the Madison acquisition, training costs for newly added employees, the costs for the inception of corporate-wide seminars supporting expansion of revenue generation activities, increased insurance costs commensurate with the financial centers and employees added since the first quarter of 2014, impaired loan carrying costs, and appraisal expenses.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income tax for the first quarter of 2015 was $1,012,000 as compared to $950,000 for the first quarter of 2014. For both periods, the Corporation’s statutory federal income tax rate was 34 percent; however, the effective income tax rate was 29 percent for the first quarter of 2015, compared to 24 percent for the first quarter of 2014. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate due to the impact of low-income housing credits and tax-exempt income, including income from bank owned life insurance. The Corporation’s income earned on tax-exempt investment and loan assets decreased to $600,000 in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $677,000 for the first quarter of 2014, resulting in a decrease of the related tax benefit. Also, certain merger-related expenses incurred by the Corporation in the first quarter of 2015 are expected to be nondeductible for federal tax purposes.

Preferred Stock Dividends

Preferred stock dividends for the first quarter of 2015 totaled $30,000 compared to $62,000 for the first quarter of 2014. Though an annualized dividend rate of 1 percent applied to both periods, the amount of preferred stock dividends for the first quarter of 2015 decreased because, on May 30, 2014, as reported on a Form 8-K filed on the same date, the Corporation used the net proceeds from a private placement of common stock, and additional cash, to redeem $13,000,000 of the $25,000,000 in outstanding shares of the Corporation’s Series B preferred stock held by the United States Department of the Treasury. The Corporation is currently paying the lowest permissible dividend rate under the U.S. Treasury’s Small Business Lending Fund Program (“SBLF Program”) as a result of originating loans that qualify for the SBLF Program in excess of a pre-determined loan portfolio baseline balance. Information about the SBLF Program is provided in this report at Note 10-Shareholders’ Equity.

Balance Sheet Review

Interest Bearing Deposits with Banks

On March 31, 2015, interest bearing deposits with banks totaled $13,000,000, compared to $17,000,000 at year-end 2014. The decrease resulted from funds used primarily for purchases in investments securities portfolio since year-end 2014.

Investment Securities (Available-for-Sale)

The Corporation’s entire investment securities portfolio is classified available-for-sale, and is comprised primarily of interest-earning debt securities. The overall composition of the Corporation’s investment securities portfolio is provided in Note 3—Securities. On March 31, 2015, the fair value of investment securities available-for-sale totaled $219,000,000, which represented an increase of approximately $6,000,000 or 3 percent as compared to the fair value of investment securities at year-end 2014. During the first quarter of 2015, funds from investment maturities and sales, mortgage-backed securities payments, and some excess cash were invested in primarily U.S. agency and tax-exempt municipal securities.

Loans

On March 31, 2015, total loans, net of deferred fees, totaled $1.02 billion which was $101,000,000 or 11 percent higher than the level at year-end 2014. The increase in volume was due primarily to the loans acquired from Madison Bancorp on January 16, 2015, which totaled $77,000,000 on that date. Also, the Corporation increased commercial loans within the builder & developer, commercial real estate investor and residential real estate investor sectors, and experienced additional loan growth in other industry sectors (e.g., agriculture, hotel/motel, and the retail/wholesale industries). The composition of the Corporation’s loan portfolio is provided in Note 5—Loans.

Deposits

Deposits are the Corporation’s principal source of funding for earning assets. On March 31, 2015, deposits totaled $1.07 billion, which reflected an $119,000,000 or 12 percent increase compared to the level at year-end 2014. The increase in total deposits was substantially from the $121,000,000 in deposit liabilities assumed from the acquisition of Madison Bancorp on January 16, 2015. The composition of the Corporation’s total deposit portfolio is provided in Note 7—Deposits.

Long-term Debt

The Corporation uses long-term borrowings as a secondary funding source for asset growth. On March 31, 2015, long-term debt totaled $90,000,000, which was substantially unchanged from the level at year-end 2014. No borrowings were added from the acquisition of Madison Bancorp in January 2015, and no borrowings were obtained by the Corporation to support funding the acquisition transaction. A listing of outstanding long-term debt obligations is provided in Note 8—Short-Term Borrowing and Long-Term Debt.

Shareholders’ Equity and Capital Adequacy

Shareholders’ equity, or capital, enables Codorus Valley to maintain asset growth and absorb losses. Capital adequacy can be affected by a multitude of factors, including profitability, new stock issuances, corporate expansion and acquisitions, dividend policy and distributions, and regulatory mandates. The Corporation’s total shareholders’ equity was approximately $121,000,000 on March 31, 2015, an increase of approximately $2,000,000 or 2 percent, compared to the level at year-end 2014. The increase in capital was primarily the result of retained earnings from profitable operations, less cash dividends paid during the first three months of 2015. The regulatory capital measurements and the calculation of certain regulatory capital components as of March 31, 2015, have changed since year-end 2014 due to both (i) goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Madison Bancorp in January 2015, as goodwill is excluded from regulatory capital, and (ii) the implementation of the Basel III regulatory framework changes, including changes to the risk-weighting of certain assets, which became effective for the Corporation and PeoplesBank effective January 1, 2015.

The Corporation has historically paid cash dividends on its common stock on a quarterly basis. The Board of Directors determines the dividend rate after considering the Corporation’s capital requirements, current and projected net income, and other relevant factors. As recently announced, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 per common share on April 14, 2015, payable on May 12, 2015, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on April 28, 2015. This dividend follows a $0.125 common stock cash dividend distributed in February 2015.

Redemption of Preferred Stock

As previously announced on the Form 8-K filed on May 30, 2014, the Corporation redeemed $13,000,000 of the $25,000,000 of outstanding preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury under its Small Business Lending Fund Program. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, accrued preferred stock dividends equated to an annualized dividend rate of 1 percent on the preferred stock outstanding.

Capital Adequacy

The Corporation and PeoplesBank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by banking regulators that involve quantitative guidelines and qualitative judgments. The regulatory capital measures for the Corporation and PeoplesBank as of March 31, 2015, and the quantitative measures established by regulators pertain to minimum capital ratios, are set forth in Note 9—Regulatory Matters to the financial statements. We believe that Codorus Valley and PeoplesBank were well capitalized on March 31, 2015.

Our capital adequacy as of March 31, 2015, reflects updated regulatory capital guidelines from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System finalized rule which implemented the Basel III regulatory capital framework, and which became effective for the Corporation and PeoplesBank on January 1, 2015. Under the revised regulatory capital framework, minimum requirements increased both the quantity and quality of capital held by banking organizations. Additionally, a new minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5 percent and a common equity Tier 1 conservation buffer of risk-weighted assets applies to all supervised financial institutions. The rule also raised the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4 percent to 6 percent and includes a minimum leverage ratio of 4 percent for all banks. The new rule also increases the risk weights for past-due loans, certain commercial real estate loans and some equity exposures, and makes selected other changes in risk weights and credit conversion factors.

The new rule further provides that, in order to avoid restrictions on capital distributions, including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, a banking organization must hold the 2.5 percent capital conservation buffer, which is to be phased in over a four year period beginning January 1, 2016, with the full 2.5 percent required as of January 1, 2019. The transition schedule for new ratios, including the capital conservation buffer, is as follows:


	As of January 1:
	2015			2016			2017			2018			2019
Minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio		4.5	%		4.5	%		4.5	%		4.5	%		4.5	%
Common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer		N/A			0.625	%		1.25	%		1.875	%		2.5	%
Minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio plus capital conservation buffer		4.5	%		5.125	%		5.75	%		6.375	%		7.0	%
Phase-in of most deductions from common equity Tier 1 capital		40	%		60	%		80	%		100	%		100	%
Minimum Tier 1 capital ratio		6.0	%		6.0	%		6.0	%		6.0	%		6.0	%
Minimum Tier 1 capital ratio plus capital conservation buffer		N/A			6.625	%		7.25	%		7.875	%		8.5	%
Minimum total capital ratio		8.0	%		8.0	%		8.0	%		8.0	%		8.0	%
Minimum total capital ratio plus capital conservation buffer		N/A			8.625	%		9.25	%		9.875	%		10.5	%

As fully phased in, a banking organization with a buffer greater than 2.5% would not be subject to limits on dividend payments or discretionary bonus payments; however, a banking organization with a buffer less than 2.5% would be subject to increasingly stringent limitations as the buffer approaches zero. The new rule also prohibits a banking organization from paying dividends or discretionary bonuses if its eligible net income is negative in that quarter and its capital conservation buffer ratio was less than 2.5% as of the beginning of that quarter. Eligible net income is defined as net income for the four calendar quarters preceding the current calendar quarter, net of any distributions and associated tax effects not already reflected in net income. A summary of payout restrictions based on the capital conservation buffer is as follows:


Capital Conservation Buffer (as a % of risk-weighted assets)		Maximum Payout (as a % of eligible net income)
Greater than 2.5%		No payout limitation applies
≤2.5% and >1.875%		60%
≤1.875% and >1.25%		40%
≤1.25% and >0.625%		20%
≤0.625%		0%

Under the new rule as effective for the quarter ending March 31, 2015, the Corporation and PeoplesBank had no regulatory dividend restrictions and remained well capitalized by all regulatory capital measures (see Note 9—Regulatory Matters to the financial statements). The Corporation plans to manage its capital adequacy to ensure continued compliance with the new capital rules.

Risk Management

Credit Risk Management

Credit risk represents the possibility that a loan client, counterparty or issuer may not perform in accordance with contractual terms, posing one of the most significant risks of loss to the Corporation. Accordingly, the Corporation emphasizes the management of credit risk, and has established a lending policy framework which management believes is sound given the nature and scope of our operations. The Credit Risk Management section included in Item 7 of the Corporation’s previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2014, provides a more detailed overview of the Corporation’s credit risk management process.

Nonperforming Assets

The following table presents asset categories posing the greatest risk of loss and related ratios. We generally place a loan on nonaccrual status and cease accruing interest income (i.e., recognize interest income on a cash basis, as long as the loan is sufficiently collateralized) when loan payment performance is unsatisfactory and the loan is past due 90 days or more. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest represent loans that are contractually past due, but are well collateralized and in the process of collection. Foreclosed real estate represents real estate acquired to satisfy debts owed to PeoplesBank. Troubled debt restructurings pertain to loans whose terms have been modified to include a concession that we would not ordinarily consider due to the debtor’s financial difficulties. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring typically involve a reduction of interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, the deferral of payments or extension of the stated maturity date. Troubled debt restructurings are evaluated for impairment if they have been restructured during the most recent calendar year, or if they cease to perform in accordance with the modified terms. The paragraphs and table below address significant changes in the aforementioned categories as of March 31, 2015, compared to December 31, 2014.

Table of Contents

Nonperforming assets are under the purview of in-house counsel, who continuously monitors and manages the collection of these accounts. Additionally, an internal asset quality control committee meets monthly to review nonperforming assets. We generally rely on appraisals performed by independent licensed appraisers to determine the value of collateral for impaired collateral-dependent loans. Generally, an appraisal is performed when: an account reaches 90 days past due, unless a certified appraisal was completed within the past twelve months; market values have changed significantly; the condition of the property has changed significantly; or the existing appraisal is outdated. In instances where the value of the collateral, net of costs to sell, is less than the net carrying amount for impaired commercial related loans, a specific loss allowance is established for the difference. When it is probable that some portion or an entire loan balance will not be collected, that amount is charged off as loss against the allowance.

Nonperforming assets as a % of total period-end assets		0.76	%		0.92	%
Nonperforming assets as a % of total period-end shareholders’ equity		8.37	%		9.47	%

The level of nonperforming assets as of March 31, 2015, has decreased by approximately $1,122,000 or 10 percent when compared to year-end 2014. Significant transactions contributing to the decrease include the successful workout and payoff of $1,300,000 on a nonaccrual commercial loan relationship in the first quarter of 2015. Generally, we remain concerned about prolonged low economic growth, or a weakening economy, and the corresponding effects it has on our commercial borrowers.

Nonaccrual Loans

We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses at least quarterly and have established a loss allowance for selected loan relationships where the net realizable value of the collateral is insufficient to repay the loan. In this regard, allowances, if applicable, are noted below within the description of the loan. Collection efforts, including modification of contractual terms for individual accounts based on prevailing market conditions and liquidation of collateral assets, are being employed to maximize recovery. Further provisions for loan losses may be required for nonaccrual loans as additional information becomes available or conditions change. There is also the potential for adjustment to the allowance as a result of regulatory examinations. A loan is returned to interest accruing status when we determine that circumstances have improved to the extent that all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are current for at least six consecutive payments and future payments are reasonably assured.

As of March 31, 2015, the nonperforming loan portfolio balance totaled $7,715,000, compared to $8,680,000 at year-end 2014. Significant activity contributing to the net decrease included the aforementioned $1,300,000 payment received on a nonaccrual commercial loan relationship, partially offset by some net downgrades of other loan relationships as of March 31, 2015. For both periods the portfolio balance was comprised primarily of collateralized commercial loans. On March 31, 2015, the nonaccrual loan portfolio was comprised of twenty-seven unrelated loan relationships with outstanding principal balances ranging in size from $1,239 to $2,257,000. Four unrelated commercial relationships, which represent 60 percent of the nonperforming loan portfolio balance, are described below.

Loan no. 1—At March 31, 2015, the balance of this loan relationship was $1,595,000. The remaining balance is collateralized by various smaller properties, some with prior lienholders. A $500,000 specific allowance was allocated for this relationship. Since December 31, 2014, the specific reserve amount decreased by $250,000 due to updated collateral valuation and cash flow information obtained by the Corporation as part of the collection and workout process. Management is pursuing its legal remedies to recover the remaining amount due.

Loan no. 2—At March 31, 2015, the balance of this loan relationship was $2,257,000. The remaining balance is collateralized by various commercial and residential properties, some with prior liens. An $800,000 specific allowance was allocated for this relationship. Management is pursuing its legal remedies to recover the remaining amount due.

Loan no. 3—At March 31, 2015, the balance of this loan relationship was $463,000, collateralized by various residential rental properties. At year-end 2014, a $500,000 specific allowance was previously allocated for this relationship. Based upon recent collateral liquidations and updated appraisals on remaining collateral properties, the Corporation determined that a partial charge off of $372,000 was warranted and recorded on this loan at the end of the first quarter of 2015. The balance as of March 31, 2015 reflects this recorded partial charge off. Management is pursuing its legal remedies to recover the remaining amount due which, after the charge off, has no specific reserve allocated against the outstanding principal balance.

Loan no. 4—At March 31, 2015, the balance of this commercial loan relationship was $282,000, collateralized by business assets and residential real estate. At year-end 2014, the balance of this relationship was $475,000. During the first quarter of 2015, the Corporation received updated information confirming the existence of significant tax liens against the business which significantly impacted the collectability of the credit. As a result, a $190,000 partial charge off for the probable loss amount was recorded. The balance as of March 31, 2015 reflects this recorded partial charge off. Management is pursuing its legal remedies to recover the remaining amount due which, after the charge off, has no specific reserve allocated against the outstanding principal balance.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Foreclosed real estate is included in the Other Assets category on the Corporation’s balance sheet. The carrying amount of foreclosed real estate on March 31, 2015, net of allowance, totaled $2,385,000 and was comprised of seven unrelated accounts ranging in size from $7,000 to $930,000 net of allowance. Total foreclosed real estate decreased by $157,000 or 6% from December 31, 2014, to March 31, 2015, with the decrease primarily attributable to the sales of certain smaller properties, and valuation adjustments recorded on two foreclosed real estate assets during the first quarter.

Two unrelated foreclosed real estate properties, which represent 77% of the foreclosed real estate portfolio balance, net of allowance, as of March 31, 2015, are described below. If a valuation allowance for probable loss has been established for a particular property, it is so noted in the property description below. Further valuation allowances may be required on any foreclosed property as additional information becomes available or conditions change.

Property no. 1— The carrying amount of this property at March 31, 2015 was $930,000, which is net of a $1,627,000 valuation allowance. The property is comprised of 131 approved residential building lots. Of this total, 24 lots are improved. The property has been listed for sale with a property broker.

Property no. 2 – The carrying amount of this property at March 31, 2015 is $910,000. The property is comprised of an 8 acre parcel improved for commercially developable sites. Management is pursuing a sales agreement for this property.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Although the Corporation believes that it maintains sound credit policies, certain loans deteriorate and must be charged off as losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. The allowance is based upon management’s continuous evaluation of the loan portfolio coupled with a formal review of adequacy on a quarterly basis, which is subject to review and approval by the Board.

The allowance for loan losses consists primarily of three components: specific allowances for individually impaired commercial loans; allowances calculated for pools of loans; and an unallocated component, which reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the assumptions that underlie the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The Corporation uses an internal risk rating system to evaluate individual loans. Loans are segmented into industry groups or pools with similar characteristics, and an allowance for loan losses is allocated to each segment based on quantitative factors such as recent loss history (two-year rolling average of net charge-offs) and qualitative factors, such as the results of internal and external credit reviews, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, adequacy of collateral, and general economic conditions. Determining the level of the allowance for probable loan losses at any given period is subjective, particularly during deteriorating or uncertain economic periods, and requires that we make estimates using assumptions. There is also the potential for adjustment to the allowance as a result of regulatory examinations.

The following table presents an analysis of the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

Annualized net charge-offs as a % of average total loans		0.29	%		0.10	%
Allowance for loan losses as a % of nonperforming loans		148.22	%		75.46	%

The allowance for loan losses increased $1,122,000 or 11 percent from March 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015. Total loans, net of deferred fees, increased $149,000,000 over the same 12 month period. This increase in loans included over $77,000,000 of loans acquired from Madison Bancorp in January 2015 which, in accordance with purchase accounting principles, were acquired at estimated fair value and were added to the Corporation’s loan portfolio with no respective allowance for loan loss balance.

Net charge-offs for the first three months of 2015 were $727,000 compared to $212,000 of net charge-offs for the same period of 2014. The increase is due primarily to charge-offs on two impaired commercial credits as a result of confirmed losses identified through the collection and workout process. The risks and uncertainties associated with prolonged low growth, or weak economic and business conditions, or the erosion of real estate values, can adversely affect our borrowers’ ability to service their loans, causing significant fluctuations in the level of charge-offs and provision expense from one period to another. The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses decreased to $1,331,000 or 12 percent of the total allowance as of March 31, 2015, as compared to $1,458,000 or 14 percent of the total allowance as of March 31, 2014. The unallocated portion of the allowance was not further reduced in consideration of both continued loan growth, principally commercial loans, and the inherent imprecision in the methodology for estimating specific and general loan losses, including the unpredictable timing and amounts of charge-offs and related historical loss averages, and economic and real estate market value uncertainties which could negatively impact unimpaired portfolio loss factors. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, we believe that the allowance for loan losses was adequate at March 31, 2015.

Liquidity Risk Management

Maintaining adequate liquidity provides the Corporation with the ability to meet financial obligations to depositors, loan customers, employees, and shareholders on a timely and cost effective basis in the normal course of business. Additionally, it provides funds for growth and business opportunities as they arise. Liquidity is generated from transactions relating to both the Corporation’s assets and liabilities. The primary sources of asset liquidity are scheduled investment security maturities and cash inflows, funds received from customer loan payments, and asset sales. The primary sources of liability liquidity are deposit growth, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, included in this report, present the changes in cash from operating, investing and financing activities. At March 31, 2015, we believe that liquidity was adequate based upon the potential liquidation of unpledged available-for-sale securities with a fair value totaling approximately $67,000,000 and available credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh totaling approximately $257,000,000. The Corporation’s loan-to-deposit ratio was 95 percent at March 31, 2015, 96 percent at year-end 2014, and 92 percent at March 31, 2014.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Corporation’s financial statements do not reflect various commitments that are made in the normal course of business, which may involve some liquidity risk. These commitments consist primarily of commitments to grant new loans, unfunded commitments under existing loan facilities, and letters of credit issued under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. Unused commitments on March 31, 2015, totaled $275,000,000 and consisted of $216,000,000 in unfunded commitments under existing loan facilities, $42,000,000 to grant new loans and $17,000,000 in letters of credit. Generally these commitments have fixed expiration dates or termination clauses and are for specific purposes. Accordingly, many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon and, therefore, generally do not present significant liquidity risk to the Corporation or PeoplesBank.


Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The most significant market risk to which the Corporation is exposed is interest rate risk. The business of the Corporation and the composition of its balance sheet consist of investments in interest earning assets (primarily loans and securities) which are funded by interest bearing liabilities (deposits and borrowings), all of which have varying levels of sensitivity to changes in market interest rates. Changes in rates also have an impact on the Corporation’s liquidity position and could affect its ability to meet obligations and continue to grow.

The Corporation employs various management techniques to minimize its exposure to interest rate risk. An Asset Liability Management Committee, consisting of key financial and senior management personnel, meets on a regular basis. The Committee is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity and liquidity positions of the Corporation, reviewing projected sources and uses of funds, approving asset and liability management policies, monitoring economic conditions, and overseeing the formulation and implementation of strategies regarding balance sheet positions.

Simulation of net interest income is performed for the next twelve-month period. A variety of interest rate scenarios are used to measure the effects of sudden and gradual movements upward and downward in the yield curve. These results are compared to the results obtained in a flat or unchanged interest rate scenario. Simulation of net interest income is used primarily to measure the Corporation’s short-term earnings exposure to rate movements. A “shock” is an immediate upward or downward movement of interest rates. The shocks do not take into account changes in customer behavior that could result in changes to mix and/or volumes in the balance sheet, nor do they account for competitive pricing over the forward 12-month period. The Corporation applies these interest rate “shocks” to its financial instruments up and down 100, 200, 300, and 400 basis points. A 300 and 400 basis point decrease in interest rates cannot be simulated at this time due to the historically low interest rate environment.

Controls and Procedures

The Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon the evaluation, the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2015, the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective. The Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Corporation’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

There has been no change in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

Unregistered sales of equity securities and use of proceeds

The Corporation relies on its subsidiary PeoplesBank, A Codorus Valley Company, for dividend distributions, which are subject to restrictions as reported in Note 9—Regulatory Matters of the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The Corporation has a Share Repurchase Program (Program), which was authorized in 1995, and has been periodically amended, to permit the purchase of up to a maximum of 4.9 percent of the outstanding shares of the Corporation’s common stock at a price per share no greater than 200 percent of the latest quarterly published book value. For the three month period ended March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, the Corporation had not acquired any of its common stock under the Program. The U.S. Treasury’s Small Business Lending Fund (SBLF) agreement imposes limits on the ability of the Corporation to repurchase shares of common stock if it fails to declare and pay quarterly dividends on the SBLF preferred stock.
