NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CSB Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Commercial and Savings Bank (the “Bank”) and CSB Investment Services, LLC (together referred to as the “Company” or “CSB”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2017, and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the periods presented have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted. The Annual Report for CSB for the year ended December 31, 2016, contains Consolidated Financial Statements and related footnote disclosures, which should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or any future interim period.

Certain items in the prior-year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

ASU 2014-09 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in ASU 2014-09 require an entity to recognize revenue upon the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, this Update specifies the accounting for certain costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer and expands disclosure requirements for revenue recognition. This Update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period and the FASB issued a one-year deferral for implementation, which results in new guidance being effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. For public entities with a calendar year-end, the new guidance is effective in the quarter and year beginning January 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ASU 2016-01 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This Update sets forth targeted improvements to GAAP including, but not limited to, requiring an entity to recognize the changes in fair value of equity investments in the income statement, requiring public business entities to use the exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for financial statement disclosure purposes, eliminating certain disclosures required by existing GAAP, and providing for additional disclosures. The Update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ASU 2016-02 – Leases. This Update sets forth a new lease accounting model for lessors and lessees. For lessees, virtually all leases will be required to be recognized on the balance sheet by recording a right-of-use asset. Subsequent accounting for leases varies depending on whether the lease is an operating lease or a finance lease. The accounting provided by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under the existing guidance. The ASU requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures with the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early application permitted. We expect the Update will result in an increase in total assets and liabilities. The amount of the increase will be impacted by the leases outstanding at the time of adoption and their remaining term at that time. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)

ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The Update requires that financial assets be presented at the net amount expected to be collected (i.e. net of expected credit losses), eliminating the probable recognition threshold for credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. The measurement of expected credit losses should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The Update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We expect the Update will result in an increase in the allowance for credit losses for the estimated life of the financial asset, including an estimate for debt securities. The amount of the increase will be impacted by the portfolio composition and quality at the adoption date, as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time. A cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings is required as of the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ASU 2016-15 - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The amendments in this Update add or clarify guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. Current guidance lacks consistent principles for evaluating the classification of cash payments and receipts in the statement of cash flows. FASB issued the ASU with the intent of reducing diversity in practice with respect to several types of cash flows. The amendments in this Update are effective using a retrospective transition approach for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s statement of cash flows.

ASU 2017-04 - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The Update simplifies the goodwill impairment test. Under the new guidance, Step 2 of the goodwill impairment process that requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of its goodwill by assigning fair value to all its assets and liabilities, is eliminated. Instead, the entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2017-08 - Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The Update amends the guidance related to amortization for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The new guidance requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The guidance does not require an accounting change for securities purchased at discount. The Update was adopted in the current reporting period and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

There were seventy-one securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2017, six (6) of which were in a continuous loss position for twelve months or more. At least quarterly, the Company conducts a comprehensive security-level impairment assessment. The assessments are based on the nature of the securities, the extent and duration of the securities in an unrealized loss position, the extent and duration of the loss and management’s intent to sell or if it is more likely than not that management will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. Management believes the Company will fully recover the cost of these securities. It does not intend to sell these securities and likely will not be required to sell them before the anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. As a result, management concluded that these securities were not other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2017.

Loan Origination/Risk Management

The Company has certain lending policies and procedures in place that are designed to maximize loan income within an acceptable level of risk. Management and the Board of Directors review and approve these policies and procedures on a regular basis. A reporting system supplements the review process by providing management with frequent reports related to loan production, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies, and non-performing and potential problem loans. Diversification in the loan portfolio is a means of managing risk associated with fluctuations in economic conditions.

Commercial loans are underwritten after evaluating and understanding the borrower’s ability to operate profitably and prudently expand its business. Underwriting standards are designed to promote relationship banking rather than transactional banking. The Company’s management examines past, current and occasionally projected cash flows to determine the ability of the borrower to repay their obligations as agreed. Commercial loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers; however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed, other business assets such as accounts receivable, or inventory and usually incorporate a personal guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers.

Commercial real estate loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial loans, in addition to those of real estate loans. These loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans are largely dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy. The properties securing the Company’s commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of type. This diversity helps reduce the Company’s exposure to adverse economic events that affect any single industry. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral, geography, and risk grade criteria. In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans versus non-owner occupied loans. At March 31, 2017 approximately 78% of the outstanding principal balances of the Company’s commercial real estate loans were secured by owner-occupied properties as compared to 77% at December 31, 2016.

With respect to loans to developers and builders that are secured by non-owner occupied properties, the Company generally requires the borrower to have had an existing relationship with the Company and have a proven record of success. Construction and land development loans are underwritten utilizing independent appraisals, sensitivity analysis of absorption, lease rates, and financial analysis of the developers and property owners. Construction and land development loans are generally based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the completed project. These estimates may be inaccurate.

NOTE 3 – LOANS (CONTINUED)

Construction and land development loans often involve the disbursement of substantial funds with repayment substantially dependent on the success of the ultimate project. Sources of repayment for these types of loans may be pre-committed permanent loans from approved long-term lenders, sales of developed property, or an interim loan commitment from the Company until permanent financing is obtained. These loans are closely monitored by on-site inspections and are considered to have higher risk than other real estate loans due to their ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, governmental regulation of real property, general economic conditions, and the availability of long-term financing.

The Company originates consumer loans utilizing a judgmental underwriting process. To monitor and manage consumer loan risk, policies and procedures are developed and modified, as needed, jointly by line and staff personnel. This activity, coupled with relatively small loan amounts that are spread across many individual borrowers, minimizes risk.

The Company maintains a credit department that reviews and validates the credit risk program on a periodic basis. The Company engages an outside firm on an annual basis to provide a third party review of the commercial loan portfolio. Results of these reviews are presented to management. The loan review processes complement and reinforce the risk identification, assessment decisions made by lenders, and credit personnel, as well as the Company’s policies and procedures.

Loans serviced for others approximated $86.0 million and $85.9 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Concentrations of Credit

Nearly all of the Company’s lending activity occurs within the state of Ohio, including the four (4) counties of Holmes, Stark, Tuscarawas, and Wayne, as well as other markets. The majority of the Company’s loan portfolio consists of commercial, industrial, and commercial real estate loans. As of March 31, 2017, there were four business segment concentrations of credit. Loan balances as a percentage of capital included: $42 million, or 69%, to lessors of non-residential buildings, $25 million, or 41%, to logging and sawmill operations, $22 million, or 36%, to borrowers in the hotel, motel and lodging business, and $19 million, or 32%, to lessors of residential buildings at March 31, 2017.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The following tables detail activity in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

The change in the provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 related to commercial loans was primarily due to the decrease in the specific allocation related to one commercial relationship, as well as the recovery of prior loan charge-offs. The increase in the provision for loan losses related to commercial real estate loans was due to the increase of nonaccrual loans in this category, as well as the increase in volume of loans.

The changes in the provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to commercial and industrial loans were primarily due to the increase in a specific reserve amount for one commercial relationship as well as the increase in loan volume. The decrease in the provision related to commercial real estate loans was primarily due to a recovery of a prior charge-off as well as a decrease in a specific reserve amount related to one loan relationship.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

All troubled debt restructurings (“TDR’s) are individually evaluated for impairment and a related allowance is recorded, as needed. Loans whose terms have been modified as TDR’s totaled $2.8 million as of March 31, 2017, and $6.4 million as of December 31, 2016, with $25 thousand and $711 thousand of specific reserves allocated to those loans, respectively. At March 31, 2017, $2.5 million of the loans classified as TDR’s were performing in accordance with their modified terms. Of the remaining $348 thousand, all were in nonaccrual of interest status.

There were no new TDR’s during the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. None of the loans that were restructured in 2015 or 2016 have subsequently defaulted in the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

The Company held no foreclosed real estate as of March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016. Consumer mortgage loans in the process of foreclosure were $487 thousand at March 31, 2017 and $448 thousand at December 31, 2016.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes commercial loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes commercial loans with an outstanding balance greater than $300 thousand. This analysis is performed on an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass. Loans classified as pass (Acceptable, Low Acceptable or Pass Watch) may exhibit a wide array of characteristics but at a minimum represent an acceptable risk to the Bank. Borrowers in this rating may have leveraged but acceptable balance sheet positions, satisfactory asset quality, stable to favorable sales and earnings trends, acceptable liquidity, and adequate cash flow. Loans are considered fully collectible and require an average amount of administration. While generally adhering to credit policy, these loans may exhibit occasional exceptions that do not result in undue risk to the Bank. Borrowers are generally capable of absorbing setbacks, financial and otherwise, without the threat of failure.

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have material weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan at some future date.

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

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

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans. Loans listed as not rated are either less than $300 thousand or are included in groups of homogeneous loans. Based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class is as follows as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:


(Dollars in thousands)	Pass		Special Mention		Substandard		Doubtful		Not Rated		Total

NOTE 5 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company provides disclosures about assets and liabilities carried at fair value. The framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three broad levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:


Level I:		Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level II:		Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar, assets or liabilities in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by corroborated or other means. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level II input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level III:		Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Impaired loans are written down to fair value through the establishment of specific reserves. Techniques used to value the collateral that secure the impaired loans include: quoted market prices for identical assets classified as Level I inputs; and observable inputs, employed by certified appraisers, for similar assets classified as Level II inputs. In cases where valuation techniques included inputs that are unobservable and are based on estimates and assumptions developed by management based on the best information available under each circumstance, the asset valuation is classified as Level III inputs.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

Securities

The fair value of securities available-for-sale and securities held-to-maturity which are measured on a recurring basis are determined primarily by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on securities’ relationship to other similar securities, classified as Level I or Level II in the fair value hierarchy.

Net loans

The fair value for loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market inputs at which loans with similar terms and qualities would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality. Where quoted market prices were available, primarily for certain residential mortgage loans, such market rates were utilized as estimates for fair value. Fair value of non-accrual loans is based on carrying value, classified as Level III.

Bank-owned life insurance

The carrying amount of bank-owned life insurance is based on the cash surrender value of the policies and is a reasonable estimate of fair value, classified as Level I.

Restricted stock

Restricted stock includes Federal Home Loan Bank Stock and Federal Reserve Bank Stock. It is not practicable to determine the fair value of regulatory equity securities due to restrictions placed on their transferability. Fair value is based on carrying value, classified as Level I.

Mortgage servicing rights

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates discounted cash flow and repayment assumptions based on management’s best judgment. As a result, these rights are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are classified within Level III of the fair value hierarchy.

Deposits

The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates are estimated using market rates currently offered for similar instruments with similar remaining maturities, resulting in a Level III classification. Demand, savings, and money market deposit accounts are valued at the amount payable on demand as of quarter end, resulting in a Level I classification.

Other borrowings

The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowings, resulting in a Level III classification.

The Company also has unrecognized financial instruments at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. These financial instruments relate to commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. The aggregated contract amount of such financial instruments was approximately $164.4 million at March 31, 2017 and $163.7 million at December 31, 2016. Such amounts are also considered to be the estimated fair values.

The fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire holdings of a particular financial instrument over the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Since no ready market exists for a significant portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates are largely based on judgments after considering such factors as future expected credit losses, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following management’s discussion and analysis focuses on the consolidated financial condition of the Company at March 31, 2017 as compared to December 31, 2016, and the consolidated results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. The purpose of this discussion is to provide the reader with a more thorough understanding of the Consolidated Financial Statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim Consolidated Financial Statements and related footnotes contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets were $679 million at March 31, 2017 as compared to $670 million at December 31, 2016. During the three month period ended March 31, 2017, net loans increased $5 million. Cash, cash equivalents, and investments increased $4 million. On the liability side, deposits and repurchase agreements increased by $7 million.

Net loans increased $5 million, or 1%, during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase occurred as demand for both business and consumer loans within the bank’s markets continued. The bank has added lending and operations staff to accommodate the increase in demand. Commercial loans including commercial real estate loans increased $6 million, or 2%, while construction and land development loans decreased $6 million, or 27%, as loans transferred to permanent financing. Residential real estate loans increased $4 million, or 3%, and consumer loans increased $1 million, or 9% from December 31, 2016. Home purchase activity has increased and consumers continued to refinance their mortgage loans for lower long-term fixed rates. Residential mortgage loan originations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were $12 million and $7 million, respectively. Originations sold into the secondary market were $1.5 million during the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Bank originates and sells primarily fixed-rate thirty year mortgages into the secondary market.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.13% at March 31, 2017 as compared to 1.11% at December 31, 2016. Outstanding loan balances increased 1% to $5 million at March 31, 2017. A provision credit of $160 thousand and net recoveries of $323 thousand, increased the allowance for loan losses to $5.5 million at March 31, 2017.

CSB BANCORP, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Nonaccrual loans increased during the first three months of 2017. For the three months ending March 31, 2017 loans totaling $3.9 million were placed on nonaccrual status, there were no charge-offs recognized, and pay downs of $552 thousand were received. The increase in nonaccrual loans was primarily due to two lending relationships comprised of several loans. Although payments on these loans were current, these loans were classified as nonaccrual loans as of the end of the first quarter. It is anticipated that collection efforts on several of the non-performing loans should result in repayment of their full carrying value.


(Dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2017			December 31, 2016			March 31, 2016
Non-performing loans	$	4,909		$	1,684		$	1,915
Other real estate		—			—			—
Allowance for loan losses		5,454			5,291			5,005
Total loans		480,709			475,449			433,453
Allowance: Loans		1.13	%		1.11	%		1.15	%
Allowance: Non-performing loans		1.1x			3.1x			2.6x

The ratio of gross loans to deposits was 88.7% at March 31, 2017, compared to 87.9% at December 31, 2016.

The Company has no exposure to government-sponsored enterprise preferred stocks, collateralized debt obligations, or trust preferred securities. Management has considered industry analyst reports, sector credit reports, and the volatility within the bond market in concluding that the gross unrealized losses of $1.4 million within the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios as of March 31, 2017, were primarily the result of customary and expected fluctuations in the bond market and not necessarily the expected cash flows of the individual securities. As a result, all security impairments on March 31, 2017, are considered temporary and no impairment loss relating to these securities has been recognized.

Deposits increased $1 million, or less than 1%, from December 31, 2016 with noninterest bearing deposits increasing $3 million and interest-bearing deposit accounts decreasing $2 million. Total deposits as of March 31, 2017 are $32 million greater than March 31, 2016 deposit balances. On a year over year comparison, increases were recognized in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand, savings, and money market savings accounts.

Short-term borrowings consisting of overnight repurchase agreements with retail customers increased $5 million to $54 million at March 31, 2017 as compared to December 31, 2016 and other borrowings decreased $81 thousand as the Company repaid FHLB advances with required monthly amortization.

Total shareholders’ equity amounted to $67 million, or 9.9%, of total assets, at March 31, 2017, compared to $65 million, or 9.8%, of total assets, at December 31, 2016. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the three months ending March 31, 2017 was due to net income of $1.7 million and other comprehensive income of $331 thousand, partially offset by dividends declared of $549 thousand. The Company and the Bank met all regulatory capital requirements at March 31, 2017.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016

For the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded net income of $1.7 million and $1.5 million and $0.63 and $0.54 per share, respectively. The $250 thousand increase in net income for the quarter was primarily the result of a $577 thousand increase in net interest income combined with a credit in the provision for loan losses of $160 thousand. The increase was partially offset by an increase in noninterest expenses of $657 thousand. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.05% and 10.54%, respectively, for the three month period of 2017, compared to 0.93% and 9.48%, respectively for the same quarter in 2016.

Interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, was $6.2 million representing a $585 thousand increase, or a 10% improvement, compared to the same period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to average loan volume increasing $53 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the first quarter 2016. The volume of taxable securities declined $32 million on a year over year comparison, resulting in a decrease in interest income of $186 thousand from the volume reduction. Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $384 thousand, an increase of $8 thousand, or 2%, from the same period in 2016. The increase in interest expense occurred primarily due to an increase in rate on interest-bearing demand and savings deposits for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the provision for loan losses reflected a $160 thousand credit, compared to a provision of $164 thousand for the same quarter in 2016. The provision for loan losses is determined based on management’s calculation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, which includes provisions for classified loans as well as for the remainder of the portfolio based on historical data, including past charge-offs and current economic trends. Favorable settlements of prior charged-off loans and impaired loans can result in a reduction in the required allowance for loan losses and a negative provision, or credit, being reflected in current operations.

Noninterest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, was $1.1 million, an increase of $114 thousand, or 11%, compared to the same quarter in 2016. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $13 thousand, or 5%, compared to the same quarter in 2016 primarily from increases in overdraft fees. The gain on the sale of mortgage loans to the secondary market increased to $42 thousand for the quarter ending March 31, 2017, from $32 thousand in the same quarter in 2016. Debit card interchange income increased $26 thousand, or 10%, with greater fee income in the first quarter of 2017. A loss on asset retirement of $39 thousand was recognized during the first quarter of 2016 that did not recur in 2017.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Fees from trust and brokerage services decreased $19 thousand to $207 thousand for the first quarter 2017 as compared to the same quarter in 2016 due to decreased assets under management.

Noninterest expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 increased $657 thousand, or 16%, compared to the first quarter of 2016. The provision for unfunded loan commitments increased $540 thousand during first quarter 2017 related to an impaired commercial credit facility line on March 31, 2017. The allowance for unfunded loan commitments is included in other liabilities. Salaries and employee benefits increased $132 thousand, or 6%, a result of increases in base salary, medical, and other benefits. Debit card expenses increased $26 thousand, or 25%, compared to the first quarter 2016 due to the replacement of all outstanding debit cards with EMV chip cards. Software expense rose $23 thousand quarter over quarter with additional investment. Occupancy and equipment expenses decreased $38 thousand in 2017 over the first quarter of 2016 due to expense reductions that resulted from the reduction of office lease expense. FDIC assessment declined $33 thousand due to the new rate structure beginning third quarter 2016. Professional and director fees decreased $5 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the first quarter 2016. The decrease resulted from a reduction of general legal and collection fees offset by an increase in internal audit fees

Federal income tax expense increased $108 thousand, or 17%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the first quarter of 2016. The provision for income taxes was $752 thousand (effective rate of 30.3%) for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $644 thousand (effective rate of 30.3%) for the same quarter ended 2016.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

CSB maintained a strong capital position with tangible common equity to tangible assets of 9.2% at March 31, 2017 compared with 9.1% at December 31, 2016.

Effective January 1, 2015 the Federal Reserve adopted final rules implementing Basel III and regulatory capital changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The rules apply to both the Company and the Bank. The rules established minimum risk-based and leverage capital requirements for all banking organizations. The quality of capital will be provided by the new measurement of Tier 1 capital called common equity tier 1 or (“CET1”). Effective with the March 31, 2015 Call Report the Bank selected the opt-out election for accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). This election will neutralize the effects of unrealized gains and losses from available-for-sale securities and other elements of the AOCI account for regulatory capital purposes.

Consistent with the Board of Director’s commitment to public confidence and safe and sound banking operations, capital targets and minimum risk-based capital ratios for CSB were established to maintain excess capital to well-capitalized standards. To be considered well-capitalized, an institution must have a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%, a tier 1 capital ratio of at least 8%, a leverage capital ratio of at least 5%, a CET1 ratio of at least 6.5%, and must not be subject to any order or directive requiring the institution to improve its capital level. An adequately capitalized institution has a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 8%, a tier 1 capital ratio of at least 6%, a CET1 ratio of at least 4.5%, and a leverage ratio of at least 4%.

Failure to meet specified minimum capital requirements could result in regulatory actions by the Federal Reserve or Ohio Division of Financial Institutions that could have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Management believes there were no material changes to capital resources as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. As of March 31, 2017 the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

Liquidity refers to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand, meet deposit withdrawals, pay operating expenses, and meet other obligations. Liquidity is monitored by the Company’s Asset Liability Committee. Other sources of liquidity include, but are not limited to, purchases of federal funds, advances from the FHLB, adjustments of interest rates to attract deposits, brokered deposits, and borrowing at the Federal Reserve discount window. Management believes that its sources of liquidity are adequate to meet cash flow obligations for the foreseeable future.

The liquidity ratio was 27.9% and 26.1% at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements (as such term is defined in applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) rules) that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ITEM 3 –QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks as of March 31, 2017, from the disclosures presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Management performs a quarterly analysis of the Company’s interest rate risk over a twenty-four month horizon. The analysis includes two balance sheet models, one based on a static balance sheet and one on a dynamic balance sheet with projected growth in assets and liabilities. Minor variances with net interest income exceeding the board approved policy are being projected in the March 2017 dynamic balance sheet simulation coupled with immediate rate shocks. All other balance sheet positions and interest rate projections are currently within the Company’s board-approved policy.

The following table presents an analysis of the estimated sensitivity of the Company’s annual net interest income to sudden and sustained -100 through +400 basis point changes, in 100 basis point increments, in market interest rates at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The net interest income reflected is for the first twelve month period of the modeled twenty-four month horizon. The underlying balance sheet for illustrative purposes is dynamic with projected growth in assets and liabilities.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

With the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that:

(a)
