 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, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.

 

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, 2012, included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 28, 2013.  

 

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated the events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2013 through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.

 

 

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, 2012.

 

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 4 – Stock Incentive Plan

 

At the Company’s annual meeting on June 16, 2010, the shareholders approved the Embassy Bancorp, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “SIP”).  The SIP authorizes the Board of Directors, or a committee authorized by the Board of Directors, to award a stock based incentive to (i) designated officers (including officers who are directors) and other designated employees at the Company and its subsidiaries, and (ii) non-employee members of the Board of Directors and advisors and consultants to the Company and its subsidiaries.  The Board of Directors believes that the SIP will encourage the designated participants to contribute materially to the growth of the Company. The SIP provides for stock based incentives in the form of incentive stock options as provided in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and deferred stock awards.  The term of the option, the amount of time for the option to vest after grant, if any, and other terms and limitations will be determined at the time of grant. Options granted under the SIP may not have an exercise period that is more than ten years from the time the option is granted. 

 

---

 

Note 4 – Stock Incentive Plan (Continued)

 

At inception, the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the SIP was 500,000.  The SIP provides for appropriate adjustments in the number and kind of shares available for grant or subject to outstanding awards under the SIP to avoid dilution in the event of merger, stock splits, stock dividends or other changes in the capitalization of the Company.  The SIP expires on June 15, 2020.  There were no awards granted under the SIP for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.    In February 2013 and 2012, the Company granted 8,764 and 7,992 shares of restricted stock, respectively, to certain members of its Board of Directors as compensation for their service in 2012 and 2011, respectively, in accordance with the Company’s Non-employee Directors Compensation program adopted in October of 2010.  Such compensation was accrued for as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.  In February 2013 and 2012, the Company also granted stock options to purchase 29,742 and 52,611 shares of stock, respectively to certain executive officers in accordance with their respective employment agreements.  Stock compensation expense related to these options was $16 thousand and $29 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and  $11 thousand and $17 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  At June 30, 2013, approximately $124 thousand unrecognized cost related to stock options granted in 2013 and 2012 will be recognized over the next 2.6 and 1.7 years, respectively.  The fair value of the options granted in 2013 and 2012 was determined with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%,  risk free interest rate of 1.34% and 1.43%, respectively, expected life of 6.0 years and 7.5 years, respectively, and expected volatility of 28.79% and 31.10%, respectively.  The weighted average fair value of options granted in 2013 and 2012 was $2.14 per share and $2.56 per share, respectively.  At June 30, 2013, there were 400,891 shares available for issuance under the SIP.

 

Note 5 – Other Comprehensive Income

 

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

The components of other comprehensive income (loss), both before tax and net of tax, are as follows:

Note 5 – Other Comprehensive Income (Continued)

 

 

A summary of the accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, is as follows:

Note 5 – Other Comprehensive Income (Continued)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note 6 – 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 149,692 and 122,200 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share because they are not dilutive to earnings.

 

Note 7 – 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 $5.0 million of standby letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2013. The approximate value of underlying collateral upon liquidation that would be expected to

---

 

cover this maximum potential exposure was $4.7 million. Management does not consider the current amount of the liability as of June 30, 2013 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued to be material.

Note 8 – 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 periods 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, 2013, the Bank had a maximum borrowing capacity for short-term and long-term advances of approximately $256.4 million, of which $3.1 million were outstanding in long-term loans, and  $7.8 million were outstanding in short-term loans.  This borrowing capacity with the FHLB includes a line of credit of $25.0 million. Long-term loans with FHLB of $7.9 million were outstanding at December 31, 2012, and there were no short-term advances outstanding from the FHLB at December 31, 2012. All FHLB borrowings are secured by qualifying assets of the Bank.

 

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, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Advances from this line are unsecured.

 

The Company has two lines of credit with Univest Bank and Trust Co. (“Univest”) totaling $10 million. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the outstanding balance was $4.3 million and $4.7 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 9 – Securities Available For Sale                                                

 

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, the amortized cost and approximate fair values of securities available-for-sale were as follows:

 

---

 

Note 9 – Securities Available For Sale                                                             (Continued)

 

 

The amortized cost and fair value of securities as of June 30, 2013, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without any penalties.

 

 

There were no sales of securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

 

Securities with a carrying value of $40.2 million and $45.8 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, were subject to agreements to repurchase, pledged to secure public deposits, or pledged for other purposes required or permitted by law.

 

The following table shows the Company’s investments’ gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively:

 

 

The Company had twenty-five (25) securities in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2013. The unrealized losses are due only to market rate fluctuations. As of June 30, 2013, the Company either has the intent and ability to hold the securities 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. Management believes that the unrealized loss only represents temporary impairment of the securities.  None of the individual losses are significant.

Note 10 – Restricted Investment in Bank Stock

 

Restricted investments in bank stock consist of Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) stock and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) stock.  The restricted stocks are carried at cost.  Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB to hold stock of its district FHLB 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 any future capital stock repurchases would be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases.  During 2012, 2011 and 2010, the FHLB conducted limited excess capital stock repurchases based upon positive quarterly net income.  Any future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases.  In connection with this program, the Bank had no stock repurchased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013,  and stock repurchased at a carrying value of $76 and $156 thousand during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.   The Bank was required to purchase additional stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 in the amount of $431 thousand.  No stock purchases were made in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.  In February 2012, the FHLB announced that dividend payments would resume in 2012, and $1 and $2 thousand was received during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  There were no dividends in the three months ended June 30, 2012, and $1 thousand in the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Management evaluates the FHLB and ACBB 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 issuer as compared to the capital stock amount for the issuer and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the issuer to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the issuer, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the issuer.

 

Based upon its evaluation of the foregoing criteria, management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB or ACBB stock as of June 30, 2013.

Note 11 – Loans Receivable and Credit Quality (Continued)

 

The following tables represent the allocation for loan losses and the related loan portfolio disaggregated based on impairment methodology at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

 

 

Troubled Debt Restructurings

 

The Company may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition than it would not otherwise consider, resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”).  The Company may modify loans through rate reductions, extensions to maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better coincide the timing of payments due under the modified terms with the expected timing of cash flows from the borrowers’ operations.  Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral.  TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculating the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

 

The Company identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and the evaluation of the borrower’s financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns, and credit reports.  Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, and negative trends may result in a payment default in the near future.

---

 

Note 11 – Loans Receivable and Credit Quality (Continued)

 

The following table presents TDRs outstanding  as of June 30, 2013:

 

 

As of June 30, 2013,  no available commitments were outstanding on TDRs.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 there were no newly restructured loans.  The following table presents newly restructured loans that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2012:

 

 

Of the TDRs described above, five (5) loans required an impairment reserve of $483 thousand recorded in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2012.    

 

The following table presents loans that were classified as a TDR within the prior twelve months that experienced a payment default (loans ninety days or more past due) during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Note 11 – Loans Receivable and Credit Quality (Continued)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note 12 – 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.  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.

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.

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. 

---

 

Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy utilized at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, are as follows: 

 

 

---

 

Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

 

For financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, are as follows:

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, 2013, of the impaired loans having an aggregate balance of $12.2 million, $8.7 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 $3.5 million in impaired loans, an aggregate valuation allowance of $546 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.

 

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are to be sold and are carried at fair value less estimated cost to sell.  Fair value is based upon independent market prices or appraised value of the property.  These assets are included in Level 3 fair value based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

---

 

Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

 

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value:

 

 

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, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

 

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 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. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service.  The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

---

 

Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost)

The fair values of loans, excluding impaired loans carried at fair value of collateral, 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.

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 – Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

Note 13 – Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

 

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

The Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities.  Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets.  As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities.  The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability in the Company's consolidated statements of condition, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. In other words, there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities. In addition, as the Company does not enter into reverse repurchase agreements, there is no such offsetting to be done with the repurchase agreements.

 

The right of setoff for a repurchase agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral would be used to settle the fair value of the repurchase agreement should the Company be in default (e.g., fails to make an interest payment to the counterparty). For private institution repurchase agreements, if the private institution counterparty were to default (e.g., declare bankruptcy), the Company could cancel the repurchase agreement (i.e., cease payment of principal and interest), and attempt collection on the amount of collateral value in excess of the repurchase agreement fair value.
