Embassy Bancorp, Inc.
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
Embassy Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Pennsylvania corporation organized in 2008 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). The Company was formed for purposes of acquiring Embassy Bank For The Lehigh Valley (the “Bank”) in connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a bank holding company structure, which was consummated on November 11, 2008. Accordingly, the Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank, giving the organization more flexibility in meeting its capital needs as the Company continues to grow. Embassy Holdings, LLC (the “LLC”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Bank organized to engage in the holding of property acquired by the Bank in satisfaction of debts previously contracted. As such, the consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and the LLC. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The Bank, which is the Company’s principal operating subsidiary, was originally incorporated as a Pennsylvania bank on May 11, 2001 and opened its doors on November 6, 2001. It was formed by a group of local business persons and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania, the Bank’s primary market area.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of the Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011.
The consolidated financial statements presented in this report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2010, included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2011.
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated the events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2011 through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.
Certain amounts in the 2010 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2011 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on 2010 net income.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies of the Company as applied in the interim financial statements presented are substantially the same as those followed on an annual basis as presented in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Note 3 – Stockholders’ Equity
On November 11, 2008, the Company consummated its acquisition of Embassy Bank For The Lehigh Valley pursuant to a Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated April 18, 2008, pursuant to which the Bank was reorganized into a bank holding company structure. At the effective time of the reorganization, each share of common stock of Embassy Bank For The Lehigh Valley issued and outstanding was automatically converted into one share of Company common stock. The issuance of Company common stock in connection with the reorganization was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(12) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Note 5 – Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, as adjusted for stock dividends and splits. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustments to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options, and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Stock options of 132,231 and 72,739 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, because they are not dilutive to earnings.
Note 6 – Guarantees
The Company, through the Bank, does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than its standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank 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 Bank generally holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments. The Company had $4.6 million of standby letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2011. The
approximate value of underlying collateral upon liquidation that would be expected to cover this maximum potential exposure was $4.5 million. Management does not consider the current amount of the liability as of June 30, 2011 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued to be material.
Note 7 – Short-term and Long-term Borrowings
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, federal funds purchased and Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) short term advances generally represent overnight or less than twelve month borrowings. Long term advances from the FHLB are for proceeds of twelve months or more and are generally less than sixty months. The Bank has an agreement with the FHLB which allows for borrowings up to a percentage of qualifying assets. At June 30, 2011, the Bank had a maximum borrowing capacity for short-term and long-term advances of approximately $182.2 million, of which $7.9 million was outstanding in long-term loans.
Long-term loans with FHLB of $7.9 million were outstanding at December 31, 2010. There were no short-term advances outstanding at June 30, 2011. All FHLB borrowings are secured by qualifying assets of the Bank.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 7 – Short-term and Long-term Borrowings (Continued)
The Bank has a federal funds line of credit with the Atlantic Central Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) of approximately $6.0 million, of which none was outstanding at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Advances from this line are unsecured.
The Company has two lines of credit with Univest National Bank and Trust Company (“Univest”) totaling $10 million. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the outstanding balance was $5.6 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Advances from these lines of credit are secured by 833,333 shares of Bank common stock. Under the terms of the loan agreement, the Bank is required to remain well capitalized. The proceeds of the loan were primarily used for the holding company’s investment in the Bank, thus providing additional capital to support the Bank’s growth.
Note 8 – Securities Available For Sale
At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, the amortized cost and fair values of securities available-for-sale were as follows:

The Company had one (1) security in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2011. The unrealized loss relates to US government agency mortgage-backed security and the decline in fair value is due only to interest rate fluctuations. As of June 30, 2011, the Company either has the intent and ability to hold the aforementioned one (1) security until maturity or market price recovery, or believes that it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell such securities. The individual unrealized loss is less than $1 thousand and management believes that the unrealized loss only represents temporary impairment of the security.
Note 9 – Restricted Investment In Bank Stock
Restricted investments in bank stock consist of Federal Home Loan Bank stock (FHLB) and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank stock. The restricted stocks are carried at cost.
The Bank owns restricted stock investments in the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB to hold stock according to a predetermined formula. In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of capital stock and as of June 30, 2011 has not resumed dividend payments. During 2011 and 2010, FHLB of Pittsburgh conducted a limited excess capital stock repurchase based upon positive net income results. In connection with this program, the Bank had stock at a carrying value of $191.7 thousand in 2011 and $103 thousand in 2010 repurchased. Any future capital stock
repurchases are expected to be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases.
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. 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. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the
impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.
Based upon its evaluation of the foregoing criteria, management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB as of June 30, 2011.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. In accordance with the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic of FASB ASC, the fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present
value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.
The recent fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value
is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements (Continued)
ASC Topic 860 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 860 are as follows:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).
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.
For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, are as follows:

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:
Cash and Cash Equivalents (Carried at Cost)
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.
Interest Bearing Time Deposits (Carried at Cost)
Fair values for fixed-rate time certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits. The Company generally purchases amounts below the insured limit, limiting the amount of credit risk on these time deposits.
Securities Available for Sale (Carried at Fair Value)
The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) are determined by 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. The measurement of fair value should be consistent with one of the following valuation techniques: market approach, income approach, and/or cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). For
example, valuation techniques consistent with the market approach often use market multiples derived from a set of comparables. Multiples might lie in ranges with a different multiple for each comparable. The selection of where within the range the appropriate multiple falls requires judgment, considering factors specific to the measurement (qualitative and quantitative). Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach include matrix pricing.
Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost)
The fair values of loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, and projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements (Continued)
Impaired Loans (Generally Carried at Fair Value)
Impaired loans are those that are accounted for under existing FASB guidance, in which the Bank 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 assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
At June 30, 2011, of the impaired loans having an aggregate balance of $10.2 million, $9.9 million did not require a valuation allowance because the value of the collateral securing the loan was determined to meet or exceed the balance owed on the loan. Of the remaining $255 thousand in impaired loans, an aggregate valuation allowance of $61 thousand was required to reflect what was determined to be a shortfall in the value of the collateral as compared to the balance on such loans.
Restricted Investment in Bank Stock (Carried at Cost)
The carrying amount of restricted investment in bank stock approximates fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities.
Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable (Carried at Cost)
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.
Deposit Liabilities (Carried at Cost)
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase and Federal Funds Purchased (Carried at Cost)
These borrowings are short term and the carrying amount approximates the fair value.
Long-Term Borrowings (Carried at Cost)
Fair values of FHLB and Univest advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB and Univest advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments (Disclosed at Cost)
Fair values for the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and letters of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account, the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.

Note 12 – New Accounting Standards
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring to clarify the accounting principles applied to loan modifications, as defined by FASB ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors. The Update clarifies guidance on a creditor’s evaluation of whether or not a concession has been granted, with an emphasis on evaluating all aspects of the modification rather than a focus on specific criteria, such as the effective interest rate test, to determine a concession. The Update goes on to provide guidance on specific types of modifications, such as changes in the interest rate of the borrowing and
insignificant delays in payments, as well as guidance on the creditor’s evaluation of whether or not a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. For public entities, the amendments in the Update are effective for the first interim or annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The entity should also disclose information required by ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, which had previously been deferred by ASU 2011-01, Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20, for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011. Nonpublic entities are required to adopt the amendments in this Update for annual periods ending on or after December 15,
2012. Early adoption is permitted.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This update amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, to bring U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements in line with International Accounting Standards. The Update clarifies existing guidance for items such as: the application of the highest and best use concept to non-financial assets and liabilities; the application of fair value measurement to financial instruments classified in a reporting entity’s stockholder’s equity; and disclosure requirements regarding quantitative information about unobservable inputs used
in the fair value measurements of level 3 assets. The Update also creates an exception to Topic 820 for entities which carry financial instruments within a portfolio or group, under which the entity is now permitted to base the price used for fair valuation upon a price that would be received to sell the net asset position or transfer a net liability position in an orderly transaction. The Update also allows for the application of premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement if the financial instrument is categorized in level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Lastly, the ASU contains new disclosure requirements regarding fair value amounts categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy such as: disclosure of the valuation process used; effects of and relationships between unobservable inputs; usage of nonfinancial assets for purposes other than their highest and best use
when that is the basis of the disclosed fair value; and categorization by level of items disclosed at fair value, but not measured at fair value for financial statement purposes. For public entities, this Update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this update will impact its financial condition or results of operations.
Embassy Bancorp, Inc.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The provisions of this update amend FASB ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, to facilitate the continued alignment of U.S. GAAP with International Accounting Standards. The Update prohibits the presentation of the components of comprehensive income in the statement of stockholder’s equity. Reporting entities are allowed to present either: a statement of comprehensive income, which reports both net income and other comprehensive income; or separate statements of net income and other comprehensive income. Under previous GAAP, all 3 presentations were acceptable. Regardless of the
presentation selected, the Reporting Entity is required to present all reclassifications between other comprehensive and net income on the face of the new statement or statements. The provisions of this Update are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2011 for public entities. As the two remaining options for presentation existed prior to the issuance of this Update, early adoption is permitted.
This discussion and analysis provides an overview of the financial condition and results of operations of Embassy Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2011 and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the preceding consolidated financial statements and related footnotes, as well as with the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2010, included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Current performance does not guarantee and may not be indicative of similar performance in the future.
Critical Accounting Policies
Disclosure of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

OVERVIEW
The Company is a Pennsylvania corporation organized in 2008 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act). The Company was formed for purposes of acquiring Embassy Bank For The Lehigh Valley (the “Bank”) in connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a bank holding company structure, which was consummated on November 11, 2008. Accordingly, the Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank, giving the organization more flexibility in meeting its capital needs as the Company continues to grow. Embassy Holdings, LLC (the “LLC”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank organized to engage in the holding of
property acquired by the Bank in satisfaction of debts previously contracted. As such, the consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and the LLC.
The Bank, which is the Company’s primary operating subsidiary, was originally incorporated as a Pennsylvania bank on May 11, 2001 and opened its doors on November 6, 2001. It was formed by a group of local business persons and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania, the Bank’s primary market area.
The Company’s assets grew $10.6 million from $513.9 million at December 31, 2010 to $524.5 million at June 30, 2011 due to the increase in cash and cash equivalents and loans, which were offset slightly by a decrease in interest bearing time deposits and a decrease in the securities portfolio.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $1.1 million compared to a net income for the three months ended June 30, 2010 of $1.0 million. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $2.2 million compared to a net income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 of $2.0 million. Loans receivable, net of the allowance for loan losses, increased $4.3 million to $388.8 million at June 30, 2011 from $384.5 million at December 31, 2010. The market is very competitive and the Company is committed to maintaining a high quality portfolio that returns a reasonable market rate. The Company expects to increase lending activity, as the Company expands its presence in its market and
becomes more widely known. The past and current economic conditions have created lower demand for loans by credit-worthy customers, making the expected growth in lending activity more challenging. The lending staff has been active in contacting new prospects and promoting the Company’s name in the community. Management believes that this will translate into continued growth of a portfolio of quality loans, although there can be no assurance of this.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Total interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 decreased $137 thousand to $5.8 million, as compared to $5.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, due to the increase in average earning assets offset by a decrease in the yield on earning assets. Average earning assets were $503.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $470.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The tax equivalent yield on average earning assets was 4.73% for the second quarter of 2011 compared to 5.16% for the second quarter of 2010.
Total interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 decreased $300 thousand to $1.2 million as compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to decreases in deposit rates. Average interest bearing liabilities were $447.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $422.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The yield on average interest bearing liabilities was 1.11% for the second quarter of 2011 compared to 1.46% for the second quarter of 2010. This decrease was the result of market conditions, deposit mix, competition, and management’s resulting adjustments to the interest rates provided to depositors.
Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $4.6 million compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The improvement in net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 is a result of decreases in the interest expense associated with deposits and other borrowed funds, offset to a lesser extent by a reduction in rates received on interest earning assets. The Company’s net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2011 decreased 10 basis points to 3.75% as compared to 3.85% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, due to the current interest rate environment, including the decreased cost of deposits and borrowed funds offset by the competitive
interest rate pressure of lending.
Total interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased $105 thousand to $11.6 million, as compared to $11.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, due to the increase in average earning assets offset by a decrease in the yield on earning assets. Average earning assets were $501 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $463.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The tax equivalent yield on average earning assets was 4.79% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 5.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Total interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased $677 thousand to $2.5 million as compared to $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to decreases in deposit rates. Average interest bearing liabilities were $447.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $416.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The yield on average interest bearing liabilities was 1.13% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 1.54% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This decrease was the result of market conditions, deposit mix, competition, and management’s resulting adjustments to the interest rates provided to depositors.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $9.1 million compared to $8.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The improvement in net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 is a result of decreases in the interest expense associated with deposits and other borrowed funds, offset to a lesser extent by a reduction in rates received on interest earning assets. The Company’s net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased 2 basis points to 3.79% as compared to 3.81% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, due to the current interest rate environment, including the decreased cost of deposits and borrowed funds offset by the competitive interest rate
pressure of lending.

Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
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. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on 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 change.
The allowance consists of general, specific, qualitative and unallocated components. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as watch, other assets especially mentioned, substandard, doubtful or loss. For such loans they may also be classified as impaired or restructured. For loans that are further classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. An unallocated component is maintained to cover
uncertainties that could affect management’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 portfolio.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and/or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value 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. Management 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. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and home equity loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement or there is a possible loss expected.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, management has provisioned for loan losses of $138 thousand and $303 thousand, respectively, as compared to $303 thousand and $483 thousand, respectively, for the same periods ended June 30, 2010. In the first six months of 2011, interest in the amount of $32 thousand was charged off on three loans when the loans were placed on non-accrual. Principal in the amount of $81 thousand was charged off on three loans, while principal in the amount of $13 thousand was recovered on two loans. The allowance for loan losses is $3.9 million as of June 30, 2011, which is 1.00% of outstanding loans, compared to $4.0 million or 1.08% of outstanding
loans as of June 30, 2010. At December 31, 2010, the allowance for loan losses of $3.7 million represented 0.96% of total outstanding loans. Based principally on economic conditions, asset quality, and loan-loss experience, including that of comparable institutions in the Bank’s market area, the allowance is believed to be adequate to absorb any losses inherent in the portfolio. Because future events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that the existing allowance for loan losses is adequate, or that material increases will not be necessary should the quality of the loans deteriorate. The Bank has not participated in any sub-prime lending activity.
The activity in the allowance for loan losses is shown in the following table, as well as period end loans receivable and the allowance for loan losses as a percent of the total loan portfolio:

Non-interest Income
Total non-interest income was $346 thousand for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to $292 thousand for the same period in 2010. Total non-interest income was $668 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to $544 thousand for the same period in 2010. The increase is primarily due to the growth in the Bank’s credit card and merchant processing customer base.
Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expenses increased $213 thousand or 7% from $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $3.2 million for the same period ended June 30, 2011. The increase is due to: an increase of $128 thousand in salary and employee benefits, the majority of which are in conjunction with increased branch staffing and salary adjustments; an increase of $39 thousand in credit card expense due to an increase in volume; an increase of $31 thousand in advertising; an increase of $12 thousand in loan expenses due to an increase in loan volume, and the appraisal costs and recording filing fees associated with the increased volume; an increase of $85 thousand in data processing due to an increase in the volume of
accounts serviced; an increase of $15 thousand in charitable contributions; offset by a decrease of $6 thousand in professional services; a decrease of $2 thousand in occupancy and equipment expense and a decrease in other operating expenses of $88 thousand due to a prepayment penalty paid on FHLB loan in 2010.
Non-interest expenses increased $587 thousand or 10% from $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $6.4 million for the same period ended June 30, 2011. The increase is due to: an increase of $311 thousand in salary and employee benefits, the majority of which are in conjunction with increased branch staffing and salary adjustments; an increase of $87 thousand in occupancy and equipment expense resulting from increases in other occupancy costs associated with the offices; an increase of $95 thousand in credit card expense due to an increase in volume; an increase of $66 thousand in advertising; an increase of $33 thousand in loan expenses due to an increase in loan volume, and the appraisal costs and
recording filing fees associated with the increased volume; an increase of $69 thousand in data processing due to an increase in the volume of accounts serviced; offset by a decrease of $21 thousand in professional services, a decrease of $25 in charitable contributions and a decrease in other operating expenses of $80 thousand due to a prepayment penalty paid on FHLB loan in 2010.
A breakdown of other expenses can be found in the statements of income.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $441 thousand, or 28.4% of income before taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $402 thousand, or 29.1%. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $877 thousand, or 28.3% of income before taxes. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $819 thousand, or 29.1%. The reduction in the tax rate is a result of increases in the tax-free investment and loan portfolios.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Securities
The Bank’s securities portfolio continues to be classified, in its entirety, as “available for sale.” Management believes that a portfolio classification of available for sale allows complete flexibility in the investment portfolio. Using this classification, the Bank intends to hold these securities for an indefinite amount of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Such securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The portfolio is structured to provide maximum return on investments while providing a consistent source of liquidity and meeting strict risk standards. Investment securities consist primarily of U.S.
government agency securities, mortgage-backed securities issued by FHLMC or FNMA, corporate bonds, and taxable and non taxable municipal bonds. The Bank holds no high-risk securities or derivatives as of June 30, 2011. The Bank has not made any investments in non-U.S. government agency mortgage backed securities or sub-prime loans.
Total securities at June 30, 2011 were $88.0 million compared to $89.9 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease in the investment portfolio is the result of principal payments on U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities, maturities and calls of securities. The carrying value of the securities portfolio as of June 30, 2011 includes a net unrealized gain of $2.7 million, which is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity net of income tax effect. This compares to a net unrealized gain of $449 thousand at December 31, 2010. The current unrealized gain position of the securities portfolio is due to the changes in market rates since December 31, 2010. No
securities are deemed to be other than temporarily impaired.
Restricted investments in bank stock consists of FHLB stock and ACBB stock. Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. The restricted stocks are carried at cost. The Company had $1.774 million of FHLB stock and $40 thousand of ACBB stock as of June 30, 2011.
In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of capital stock and as of June 30, 2011 has not resumed dividend payments. During 2011 and 2010, FHLB of Pittsburgh conducted a limited excess capital stock repurchase based upon positive net income results. In connection with this program, the Bank had stock at a carrying value of $191.7 thousand in 2011 and $103 thousand in 2010 repurchased, respectively. Any future capital stock repurchases are expected to be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases.
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment in accordance with ASC Topic 942, “Accounting by Certain Entities (Including Entities With Trade Receivables) That Lend to or Finance the Activities of Others.” 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. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the
FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.
Based upon its evaluation of the foregoing criteria, management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB or ACBB restricted stock as of June 30, 2011.
Loans
The loan portfolio comprises a major component of the Bank’s earning assets. All of the Bank’s loans are to domestic borrowers. Total net loans at June 30, 2011 increased $4.3 million to $388.8 million from $384.5 million at December 31, 2010. The loan to deposit ratio decreased slightly from 93.5% at December 31, 2010 to 91.0% at June 30, 2011. The Bank’s loan portfolio at June 30, 2011 was comprised of consumer loans of $189.1 million, an increase of $10.9 million from December 31, 2010, and commercial loans of $203.7 million, a decrease of $6.4 million from December 31, 2010, the latter being due primarily to the payoff of two loan relationships, before the allowance for loan losses and deferred
costs. The Bank has not originated, nor does it intend to originate, sub-prime mortgage loans.
Credit Risk and Loan Quality
The allowance for loan losses increased $203 thousand to $3.9 million at June 30, 2011 from $3.7 million at December 31, 2010. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the allowance for loan losses represented 1.00% and 0.96%, respectively, of total loans. Based upon current economic conditions, the composition of the loan portfolio, the perceived credit risk in the portfolio and loan-loss experience of comparable institutions in the Bank’s market area, management feels the allowance is adequate to absorb reasonably anticipated losses.
At June 30, 2011, aggregate balances on non-performing loans equaled $8.3 million compared to $6.3 million at December 31, 2010 and $5.7 million at June 30, 2010, representing 2.11%, 1.63% and 1.52% of total loans at June 30, 2011, December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, respectively. Troubled debt restructurings, included in the following table, represent loans where the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, has granted a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. Of the loans modified under a troubled debt restructuring, $3.6 million were current under their modified terms, and $1.3 million were past due less than 90 days at June 30, 2011. The
details for non-performing loans are included in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Premises and Equipment
Company premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, decreased $225 thousand from December 31, 2010 to June 30, 2011. This decrease is due primarily to depreciation on existing premises and equipment.
Deposits
Total deposits at June 30, 2011 increased $16.3 million to $431.6 million from $415.3 million at December 31, 2010. Savings deposits increased by $33.6 million and demand deposits increased by $2.7 million, while time deposits decreased $20.0 million. The significant growth in savings and demand deposits is attributed to successful promotions, as well as migration from time deposits.
Liquidity
Liquidity represents the Company’s ability to meet the demands required for the funding of loans and to meet depositors’ requirements for use of their funds. The Company’s sources of liquidity are cash balances, due from banks, and federal funds sold. Cash and cash equivalents were $29.5 million at June 30, 2011, compared to $19.6 million at December 31, 2010.
Additional asset liquidity sources include principal and interest payments from the investment security and loan portfolios. Long-term liquidity needs may be met by selling unpledged securities available for sale, selling loans or raising additional capital. At June 30, 2011, the Company had $88.0 million of available for sale securities. Securities with carrying values of approximately $47.9 and $58.2 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, were pledged as collateral to secure securities sold under agreements to repurchase, public deposits, and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
The Bank also has borrowing capacity with the FHLB of approximately $182.2 million, of which $7.9 million was outstanding in long-term loans at June 30, 2011. All of the long-term loans mature in 2013. The Bank also has a line of credit with the FHLB and the ACBB of approximately $25.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, of which none was outstanding at June 30, 2011. All FHLB borrowings are secured by qualifying assets of the Bank and advances from the ACBB line are unsecured.
The Company has two lines of credit totaling an aggregate of $10 million with Univest National Bank, of which an aggregate of $5.6 million was outstanding at June 30, 2011. These lines of credit are secured by 833,333 shares of Bank common stock.
The Company has no investment in or financial relationship with any unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on liquidity or capital resources.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not reflect various off-balance sheet arrangements that are made in the normal course of business, which may involve some liquidity risk. These off-balance sheet arrangements consist mainly of unfunded loans and commitments, as well as lines of credit made under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. These unused commitments totaled $76.4 million at June 30, 2011. The Company also has letters of credit outstanding of $4.6 million at June 30, 2011. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because many of them will expire without being drawn upon, they do not generally present any significant liquidity risk to the Company. Management
is of the opinion that the Company’s liquidity is sufficient to meet its anticipated needs.
Capital Resources and Adequacy
Total stockholders’ equity was $40.2 million as of June 30, 2011, representing a net increase of $3.5 million from December 31, 2010. The increase in capital was a result of the net income of $2.2 million and the increase in unrealized holding gains on available for sale securities of $1.5 million, the exercise of stock options totaling $60 thousand, offset by $74 thousand attributable to stock tendered in connection with the exercise of stock options and a dividend accrual of $215 thousand.
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by banking regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
The regulations require that banks maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk weighted assets (as defined), and Tier I capital to average assets (as defined). As of June 30, 2011, the Bank met the minimum requirements. In addition, the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the amounts required to be considered “well capitalized” as defined in the regulations.
The following table provides a comparison of the Bank’s risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios:

Note: Unrealized gains on securities available for sale are excluded from regulatory capital components of risk-based capital and leverage ratios.
The Federal banking regulators have adopted risk-based capital guidelines for bank holding companies. Currently, the required minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) is 8%. At least half of the total capital is required to be Tier I capital, consisting principally of common shareholders’ equity, non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, a limited amount of cumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill. The remainder (Tier II capital) may consist of a limited amount of subordinated debt and intermediate-term preferred stock, certain hybrid
capital instruments and other debt securities, perpetual preferred stock and a limited amount of the general loan loss allowance.
In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the federal banking regulators established minimum leverage ratio (Tier I capital to total assets) guidelines for bank holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum leverage ratio of 3% for those bank holding companies which have the highest regulatory examination ratings and are not contemplating or experiencing significant growth or expansion. All other bank holding companies are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4%.

Prior to September 2010, the Company qualified as a “small bank holding company” under the Federal Reserve Board’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement (the “Policy Statement”), which exempts bank holding companies with assets of less than $500 million from the risk-based and leverage capital guidelines generally applicable to bank holding companies. Application of this exemption therefore permits a small bank holding company to maintain debt levels that are higher than what would typically be permitted for larger bank holding companies. As of September 2010, the Company exceeds $500 million in assets and, therefore, no longer meets the eligibility criteria of a small
bank holding company in accordance with the Policy Statement. Accordingly, the Company is no longer exempt from the regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies.
