There are 73 positions that are considered temporarily impaired at June 30, 2009. The Corporation evaluates both equity and fixed maturity positions for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic and market concerns warrant such evaluation.
Recent market conditions throughout the financial sector have made the evaluation regarding the possible impairment of mortgaged-backed and CMO securities difficult to fully determine given the volatility of their pricing, based not only on rate changes, but collateral uncertainty as well. The majority of the MBS and CMO’s owned by the
Corporation are backed by the U.S. government. As of June 30, 2009, on an amortized cost basis, approximately 16% of the Corporation’s MBS and CMO’s are private label CMO’s, not backed by the U.S. government. This compares to 20% as of December 31, 2008. As of June 30, 2009, seven private label securities were held with five of the seven rated AAA by either Moody’s or S&P. The remaining two securities were rated below investment grade. Management
conducts impairment analysis on a quarterly basis and currently has no plans to sell these securities as cash flow analysis performed under severe stress testing does not indicate a need to take impairment on these bonds. Management has concluded that as of June 30, 2009, the declines outlined in the above table represent temporary declines, and the Corporation does have the intent and ability to hold these securities until maturity or to allow a market recovery.

Fair Value Presentation |
Effective January 1, 2008, the Corporation adopted the provisions of FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, for financial assets and financial liabilities. FAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard
applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. The FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13, which
removed leasing
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
transactions accounted for under FAS No. 13 and related guidance from the scope of FAS No. 157. The FASB also issued Staff Position No.157-2, Partial Deferral of the Effective Date of Statement 157, which deferred the effective date of FAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial
assets and nonfinancial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.
FAS No. 157 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of observable pricing utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by the FAS No. 157 hierarchy are as follows:
Level I: |
Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. |
Level II: |
Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed. |
Level III: |
Assets and liabilities that have little to no observable pricing as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. |
The following tables present the assets reported on the balance sheet at their fair value as of June 30, 2009, December 31, 2008, and June 30, 2008, by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by FAS No. 157, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant
to the fair value measurement.

On June 30, 2009, the Corporation held one private label collaterized mortgage back security (PCMO) valued using level III inputs. Pricing on this PCMO was calculated by a third party. Due to broad dislocations in the credit markets, and the lack of trading, and new issuance in private label CMO securities, market price indications
generally reflect the lack of liquidity in the market in addition to credit concerns. The third party obtained data about the deal structure and the underlying collateral. The collateral was analyzed in terms of its “quality” – or its ability to generate cash – based on its potential for eventually defaulting. The cash generated by the collateral was allocated across the deal’s capital structure on a priority-of-claims basis to see which investors
get paid – and which suffer losses. The cash flows of the security were discounted to June 30, 2009, to determine an intrinsic value. Based on the third-party analysis and the current investment ratings of the securities, and because the Corporation has the ability and intent to hold the investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Corporation does not consider these assets to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2009. However, continued price declines
or actual credit losses could result in a write-down of this security. As of June 30, 2009, the PCMO security had a book value of $3,527,000 with a fair market value of $2,873,000 using level III inputs.
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
All of the Corporation’s debt instruments, with the exception of the one PCMO, were valued using level II inputs, where quoted prices are available and observable but not necessarily quotes on identical securities traded in active markets on a daily basis. The Corporation’s CRA fund investments are fair valued utilizing
level I inputs because the funds have their own quoted prices in an active market. As of June 30, 2009 the CRA fund investments had a $3,000,000 book value with a fair market value of $2,887,000.

The security had a book value of $3,810,000 with a fair market value of $3,109,000 using level three inputs. As of December 31, 2008 the Corporation’s
CRA fund investments had a book value of $3,000,000 and a fair market value of $2,763,000 utilizing level I pricing.

On June 30, 2008, none of the Corporation’s securities were valued using level III inputs. All of the Corporation’s debt instruments were valued using Level II inputs. As of December 31, 2008, the Corporation’s CRA fund investments had a book value of $3,000,000 and a fair market value of $2,763,000 utilizing level
I pricing.
Financial instruments are considered level III when their values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation models for level III financial instruments
typically also rely on a number of inputs that are readily observable either directly or indirectly. Level III financial instruments also include those for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The following table presents the changes in the level III fair-value category for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

The Corporation had a total of $3,129,000 of impaired loans as of June 30, 2009, with $296,000 of specifically allocated allowance against these loans. The Corporation had a total of $2,899,000 of impaired loans as of December 31, 2008, with $455,000 of specifically allocated allowance against these loans. The Corporation had
a total of $708,000 of impaired loans as of June 30, 2008, with $181,000 of specifically allocated allowance against these loans. Impaired loans are valued based on a discounted present value of expected future cash flow.
Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is measured at fair value, less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management. The assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. Management
had a previous agreement of sale which did not occur in April of 2008. Management then entered into a new agreement of sale and wrote down the OREO property to $520,000 based on this agreement of sale less anticipated settlement costs. Income and expenses from operations and changes in valuation allowance are included in the net expenses from OREO.
4. Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accrued Interest Receivable, and Accrued Interest Payable
For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Securities Available for Sale
Management utilizes quoted market pricing for the fair value of the Corporation's securities that are available for sale, if available. If a quoted market rate is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are individual loans for which the Corporation has a firm sales commitment; therefore, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value.
Loans
The fair value of fixed and variable rate loans is estimated by discounting back the scheduled future cash flows of the particular loan product, using the market interest rates of comparable loan products in the Corporation’s greater market area, with the same general structure, comparable credit ratings, and for the same remaining maturities.
Bank Owned Life Insurance
Fair value is equal to the cash surrender value of the life insurance policies.
Mortgage Servicing Asset
The fair value of mortgage servicing assets is based on the present value of future cash flows for pools of mortgages, stratified by rate and maturity date.
Deposits
The fair value of non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts and interest bearing demand deposit and savings accounts is based on the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated by discounting back the expected cash flows of the time deposit using market interest
rates from the Corporation’s greater market area currently offered for similar time deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Borrowings
The fair value for overnight borrowings is equal to the carrying value. The fair value of a term borrowing is estimated by comparing the rate currently offered for the same type of borrowing instrument with a matching remaining term.
Firm Commitments to Extend Credit, Lines of Credit, and Open Letters of Credit
These financial instruments are generally not subject to sale and estimated fair values are not readily available. The carrying value, represented by the net deferred fee arising from the unrecognized commitment or letter of credit, and the fair value, determined by discounting the remaining contractual fee over the term of the
commitment, using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar credit risk, is not considered material for disclosure purposes. The contractual amounts of unfunded commitments are presented in Note 5.
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Corporation's financial instruments at June 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, are as follows:

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities |
In order to meet the financing needs of its customers in the normal course of business, the Corporation makes various commitments that are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. These commitments include firm commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit, and open letters of credit. As of
June 30, 2009, firm loan commitments were $4.9 million, unused lines of credit were $88.9 million, and open letters of credit were $13.9 million. The total of these commitments was $107.7 million, which represents the Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by its customers with respect to these financial instruments. The actual credit losses that may arise from these commitments are expected to compare favorably with the Corporation’s loan loss experience
on its loan portfolio taken as a whole. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for balance sheet financial instruments.
A construction contract was signed subsequent to the reporting date but prior to the filing of this quarterly report for $1.5 million to renovate the Denver branch in 2009. Construction began in May 2009 with completion scheduled for December 2009. As of the date of this report, $482,000 was paid under this contract.
On November 5, 2008, the Corporation filed a Form 8-K announcing a one-time charge of $1,222,000 in connection with workforce realignment. The workforce realignment is one element of a larger business process improvement engagement that the Corporation entered into with the consulting division of the Bank’s core processor
in early 2008. The $1,222,000 charge is for salary and employee benefit costs for 35 employees that accepted a voluntary early separation package. As of June 30, 2009, $476,000 of contractual obligations remains to be paid to these employees.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards |
In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No.157-2, Partial Deferral of the Effective Date of Statement 157, which deferred the effective date of FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, for all nonfinancial assets and
nonfinancial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of this standard has not had a material effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In March 2008, the FASB issued FAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to require enhanced disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. The new standard has revised financial reporting for derivative instruments and hedging
activities by requiring more transparency about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. FAS No. 161 requires disclosure of the fair values of derivative
instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also requires entities to provide more information about their liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related. Further, it requires cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important information about derivative instruments. FAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early
application encouraged. The adoption of this standard has not had a material effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In May 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 165, Subsequent Events, which requires companies to evaluate events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the date the financial statements are issued, or available to be issued in the case of non-public entities. FAS
No. 165 requires entities to recognize in the financial statements the effect of all events or transactions that provide additional evidence of conditions that existed at the balance sheet date, including the estimates inherent in the financial preparation process. Entities shall not recognize the impact of events or transactions that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date but arose after that date. FAS No. 165 also requires entities to disclose the
date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. FAS No. 165 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Corporation adopted the provisions of FAS No. 165 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, as required, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets. FAS 166 removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity (QSPE) from FAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities, and removes the exception from applying FIN 46(R). This statement also clarifies the requirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial assets that are eligible for sale accounting. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. As such, the Corporation plans to adopt FAS No. 166 effective January 1, 2010. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s results
of operations or financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). FAS 167, which amends FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, (FIN 46(R)), prescribes
a qualitative model for identifying whether a company has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) and eliminates the quantitative model prescribed by FIN 46(R). The new model identifies two primary characteristics of a controlling financial interest: (1) provides a company with the power to direct significant activities of the VIE, and (2) obligates a company to absorb losses of and/or provides rights to receive benefits from the VIE. FAS No. 167 requires a company to reassess on
an ongoing basis whether it holds a controlling financial interest in a VIE. A company that holds a controlling financial interest is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and is required to consolidate the VIE. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 168, The ‘FASB Accounting Standards Codification’ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. FAS No. 168 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification),
which was officially launched on July 1, 2009, and became the primary source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the authority of Federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The subsequent issuances of new standards will be in the form of Accounting Standards Updates that will be
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
included in the Codification. FAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. As such, the Corporation plans to adopt FAS No.168 in connection with its third quarter 2009 reporting. As the Codification is neither expected nor intended to change GAAP, the adoption
of FAS No.168 will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 08-4, Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjusted Conversion Ratios. This Issue provides transition guidance for conforming changes made to EITF Issue No. 98-5, Accounting
for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjusted Conversion Ratios, that resulted from EITF Issue No. 00-27, Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments, and FAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liability and Equity. The conforming changes are effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008, with earlier application permitted. The adoption of this FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) has not had a material effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement. This FSP provides guidance on the accounting for certain types of convertible debt instruments that
may be settled in cash upon conversion. Additionally, this FSP specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this
FSP has not had a material effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 140-3, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions. This FSP concludes that a transferor and transferee should not separately account for a transfer of a financial asset and a related
repurchase financing unless (a) the two transactions have a valid and distinct business or economic purpose for being entered into separately and (b) the repurchase financing does not result in the initial transferor regaining control over the financial asset. The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this FSP has not had a material effect on the Corporation’s
results of operations or financial position.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly. This FSP relates to determining fair values when there
is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It reaffirms the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive. FSP No. FAS 157-4 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this FSP did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, which relates to fair value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet of companies at fair value. Prior
to issuing this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed once a year. The FSP now requires these disclosures on a quarterly basis, providing qualitative and quantitative information about fair value estimates for all those financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value. FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Corporation has presented the necessary disclosures in Note 4
herein.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, which provides additional guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for and presenting impairment losses on securities. FSP
No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations.
The FASB and SEC have issued a number of other accounting rules during late 2008 and throughout the beginning of 2009. These additional promulgations have no relevance to the business operations of the Corporation, and therefore, will not have an impact on the Corporation’s financial reporting.

Subsequent Events |
The Corporation assessed events occurring subsequent to June 30, 2009, through the report date for potential recognition and disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. No events occurred that require adjustment to the consolidated financial statements as of the report date.
Subsequent to the financial statement date, the Corporation became aware of a potential loss on a portion of the corporate bond holdings. As part of these holdings, the Corporation held two CIT Group corporate bonds, each $1 million. One CIT Group bond had a rating below policy requirements but was to mature on July 15,
2009. The other $1 million CIT Group bond held a single A credit rating, and was to mature on December 31, 2009. Subsequent to June 30, 2009, but prior to the filing of this report, CIT Group began experiencing severe financial problems. Information regarding a possible bankruptcy and lack of a potential government intervention became public the week of July 13, 2009. On July 15, 2009, the Corporation received full payment on the first CIT Group bond; however, bond
prices were rapidly declining on outstanding CIT Group bonds. With bond prices on the December 15, 2009 maturity falling to less than 50 cents on the dollar, on July 16, 2009, management acted to sell the remaining $1 million of CIT Group bonds to avoid potentially greater losses. As a result of this sale, the Corporation recorded $526,000 of losses on this transaction. Therefore, as of July 16, 2009, the Corporation no longer held any CIT Group bonds. The book value
of the corporate bond portfolio was down to $14.3 million.

Results of Operations
Overview
The Corporation recorded net income of $1,260,000 and $2,341,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, an 11.8% and 17.1% decrease from the $1,428,000 and $2,823,000 earned during the same periods in 2008. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, were $0.45 and $0.83 for the first three and six months of 2009, compared
to $0.50 and $0.99 for the same periods in 2008.
The largest impact to the Corporation’s earnings resulted from the increase in the FDIC insurance expense. The FDIC has increased the assessment rates for all banks and instituted a one-time special assessment. These combined actions increased FDIC insurance to $299,000 for the first three months of 2009 and $716,000
for the first six months of 2009 as compared to $13,000 and $27,000 for the same periods in 2008.
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The Corporation’s net interest income for the second quarter of 2009 showed a slight increase over the same period of 2008, but decreased slightly from the most recent quarter’s levels primarily as a result of faster amortization on the security portfolio. There have been higher levels of principal payments received
on mortgage-backed securities due to the low interest rate environment, causing amortization speeds to increase. Because of this, the Corporation’s net interest margin was 3.26% for the second quarter of 2009, compared to 3.46% for the fourth quarter of 2008, and 3.51% for the second quarter of 2008. The Corporation’s year-to-date net interest margin was 3.37% through June 30, 2009, as compared to 3.52% for the same period in 2008.
Other income, excluding the gain or loss on the sale of securities, increased 30.1%, or $385,000, for the second quarter of 2009, compared to 2008. For the first six months of 2009, other income, excluding the gain or loss on the sale of securities, increased 21.4%, or $559,000 compared to the same period in 2008. Meanwhile,
operational costs for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same period in 2008, increased at a pace of 11.7%, or $539,000, including the increase in FDIC insurance expenses. For the first six months of 2009, total operational costs, including FDIC insurance expenses, increased by 17.5%, or $1,570,000, over the same period in 2008. Excluding the additional FDIC insurance expense, total operating expenses would have increased 5.5% and 9.8% respectively. Operational
expenses were also elevated as a result of consulting fees of $206,000 and $275,000 for the respective three and six months ended June 30, 2009, for which there was no comparative activity in 2008.
The financial services industry uses two primary performance measurements to gauge performance: return on average assets (“ROA”) and return on average equity (“ROE”). ROA measures how efficiently a bank generates income based on the amount of assets or size of a company. ROE measures the efficiency
of a company in generating income based on the amount of equity or capital utilized. The latter measurement typically receives more attention from shareholders. The ROA and ROE for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, decreased from the same periods in 2008 due to the decline in the Corporation’s income.

The results of the Corporation’s operations is best explained by addressing in further detail the five major sections of the income statement, which are as follows:
|
· |
Net interest income |
|
· |
Provision for loan losses |
|
· |
Non-interest income |
|
· |
Non-interest expenses |
|
· |
Provision for income taxes |
The following discussion analyzes each of these five components.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income (NII) represents the largest portion of the Corporation’s operating income. Net interest income typically generates more than 75% of the Corporation’s gross revenue stream. The overall performance of the Corporation is highly dependent on the changes in net interest income since it comprises
such a significant portion of the operating income.
The following table shows a summary analysis of net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis. For analytical purposes and throughout this discussion, yields, rates, and measurements such as NII, net interest spread, and net yield on interest earning assets are presented on a FTE basis. The
FTE net interest income shown in both tables below will exceed the NII reported on the statements of income. The amount of FTE adjustment totaled $372,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009, and $804,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $427,000 and $872,000 for the same periods in 2008.
The amount of the tax adjustment varies depending on the amount of income earned on tax-free assets. Currently, the Corporation is in an alternative minimum tax position where tax–advantaged loans and securities do not offer the
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
benefit that they did previously. As a result, management has allowed the tax-free municipal securities portfolio to decline as a percentage of the total securities portfolio until the Corporation resumes a normal tax position. This strategy has caused the tax equivalent adjustment to decline for both the three and six
months ending June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods of 2008. During the second quarter of 2009, there have been some purchases of municipal securities that are not subject to alternative minimum tax. These acquisitions allow the Corporation to gain the benefits of tax-free income while in an alternative minimum tax position.

NII is the difference between interest income earned on assets and interest expense incurred on liabilities. Accordingly, two factors affect net interest income:
|
· |
The rates charged on interest earning assets and paid on interest bearing liabilities |
|
· |
The average balance of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities |
The Federal funds rate, the Prime rate, and the shape of the U.S. Treasury curve all affect net interest income.
The Federal funds rate, which is the overnight rate financial institutions charge other financial institutions to borrow or invest overnight funds, declined from 5.25% in August 2007 to 0.25% by December 31, 2008. The Federal funds rate declined 100 basis points in the second half of 2007, with another 400 basis points of reductions
in 2008. On December 16, 2008, the Federal Reserve Bank cut the Federal funds rate from 1.00% to a target rate of 0.00% to 0.25%. The Federal funds rate has effectively remained at 0.25% for the entire first half of 2009, and is the rate at the time of this filing. The decrease in the Federal funds rate has reduced the cost of funds on overnight borrowings and allowed lower interest rates paid on deposits, reducing the Corporation’s interest expense. The Prime
rate has declined in tandem with the Federal funds rate. The above rate reductions have generally had offsetting positive and negative impacts to the Corporation’s NII.
The decrease of the Prime rate has reduced the yield on the Corporation’s Prime-based loans, having a direct negative impact on the interest income for the Corporation. The Corporation’s fixed rate loans do not reprice as rates change; however, with the steep decline in interest rates, more customers have refinanced
into lower fixed rate loans or moved into Prime-based loans. Management has instituted floors on certain loan instruments and revised pricing standards to counter balance the reduction of loan yield during this historically low-rate period.
During 2008, short-term interest rates decreased dramatically, and the U.S. Treasury curve resumed a more normal, positively sloped yield curve. Initially in early 2008, mid-term and long-term rates did not decline, making for a more advantageous environment for obtaining margin on loans and securities above cost of funds. In
the fourth quarter of 2008, short-term rates again decreased. This time, mid-term and long-term U.S. Treasury rates declined, but the positive slope of the yield curve remained. Since deposits and borrowings generally price off short-term rates, the significant rate drops on the short end of the rate curve permitted management to reduce the overall cost of funds during 2008 and the first half of 2009. Over this period, management continued to reprice time deposits and borrowings
to lower levels. Rates on interest bearing core deposit accounts were also reduced during 2008 and the first half of 2009, with a majority of the rate reductions occurring from October 2008 through March 2009. Meanwhile, management continued to invest in securities and originate loans at longer terms, where the U.S.Treasury curve and market rates remained higher.
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Management anticipates that interest rates will remain at these historically low rates for the remainder of 2009, and possibly into 2010, because of the current economic and credit situation. This will likely result in the U.S.Treasury curve retaining a significant positive slope for 2009, based on the economic data currently available. This
allows management to continue to price the vast majority of liabilities at lower short-term rates, while pricing loans and investing in longer securities, which are based off the 5-year and 10-year Treasury rates that are significantly above short-term rates. Management currently anticipates that the Corporation’s margin will stabilize in late 2009, as savings on interest-bearing liabilities are generally offset by declines in asset yields.
For the second quarter of 2009, the Corporation’s NII on a FTE basis decreased by $27,000 compared to the same period in 2008. For the first six months of 2009, the Corporation’s NII on a FTE basis increased by $259,000, or 2.4%, compared to the same period in 2008. As shown on the tables below, interest income
and interest expense on a FTE basis for the quarter ending June 30, 2009, decreased by $312,000, or 3.4%, and $285,000, or 7.8%, compared to the same period in 2008. For the first six months of 2009, interest income and interest expense on a FTE basis decreased by $504,000, or 2.8%, and $763,000, or 10.3%, compared to the first six months of 2008.
The earnings and yields on loans were lower for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The earnings and yields were both negatively impacted due to the sharp drop in the Prime rate, which affected the Prime-based portion of the Corporation’s loan portfolio. There
are times when sufficient growth in the loan portfolio can make up for decreases in yield and still allow for higher overall interest income on loans. However, because the Prime rate started 2008 at 7.25% and declined to 3.25% by the end of 2008, the loss on yield was too significant to be recovered by additional loan growth. Loan growth was slow throughout most of 2008, with an acceleration of growth in the final quarter. By the time that the loan demand improved in 2009, loan
rates had fallen substantially, meaning that the majority of loan growth in the past year was at rates lower than the loans already on the balance sheet. Additionally, many consumers and businesses are taking the opportunity presented by a historically low Prime rate to borrow on lines of credit that have rates that float on the Prime rate. This type of growth reduces the amount of income generated on loans substantially. Management has instituted floors on certain types of consumer
and business-purpose variable rate loans, but the majority of the Corporation’s variable rate loans float on the Prime rate.
Interest bearing liabilities grew steadily through 2008, and growth quickened in the first half of 2009. With significantly lower interest rates, total interest expense declined despite the increase in balances. Lower rates on all deposit types helped to reduce interest expense by $229,000 for the three months ended June
30, 2009, and $688,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. Demand and savings deposits reprice in entirety whenever the offering rates are changed. This allows management to reduce interest costs rapidly; however, it becomes difficult to continue to gain cost savings once offering rates decline to these historically low levels. The annualized rate on interest bearing demand and savings accounts has been nearly cut in half since June 30,
2008; however, this cannot continue at the same level for the remainder of the year since rates cannot conceivably be reduced much further.
Time deposits reprice over time according to their maturity schedule. This enables management to both reduce and increase rates slowly over time. Historically, the Corporation has seen increases in time deposit balances when the equity markets decline, as investors attempt to protect principal. This occurred
to an even larger degree in 2008 and into the first half of 2009 as the equity markets faced unprecedented declines. The significant growth of the time deposit portfolio at low rates means that the Corporation has additional funds to utilize on the asset side while keeping interest expense costs low. Additionally, time deposits that matured in the last twelve months have mostly repriced to a lower rate saving significant funding costs. The Corporation was able to reduce interest
expense on time deposits by $58,000 for the second quarter of 2009 and $281,000 for the year-to-date period compared to the same periods in 2008 while still increasing average balances by $43.7 million and $36.2 million respectively. This effectively reduced the annualized rate paid on time deposits by 79 basis points when comparing the three-month periods in both years, and 83 basis points when comparing the six-month periods in both years.
The Corporation historically uses both short-term and long-term borrowings to supplement liquidity generated by deposit growth. Because of the faster-paced growth in deposits compared to a slower growth in the loan portfolio, management reduced total borrowing levels from June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2008. The Corporation
decreased average borrowings by $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2009, compared to the same quarter in 2008, reducing interest expense on borrowings by $56,000. The year-to-date period showed a minor increase in average borrowings of $557,000 with a decrease in interest expense of $75,000 compared to the year-to-date period in 2008. This was the result of refinancing borrowings at a lower total cost as evidenced by the average yield on borrowings declining 17 basis points for the year-to-date
period.
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The following table shows a more detailed analysis of net interest income on a FTE basis shown with all the major elements of the Corporation’s balance sheet, which consists of interest earning and non-interest earning assets and interest bearing and non-interest bearing liabilities. Additionally, the analysis provides the
net interest spread and the net yield on interest earning assets. The net interest spread is the difference between the yield on interest earning assets and the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities. The net interest spread has the deficiency of not giving credit for the non-interest bearing funds and capital used to fund a portion of the total interest earning assets. For this reason, management emphasizes the net yield on interest earning assets, also referred to as the
net interest margin (“NIM”). The NIM is calculated by dividing net interest income on an FTE basis into total average interest earning assets. NIM is generally the benchmark used by analysts to measure how efficiently a bank generates net interest income. For example, a financial institution with a NIM of 3.75% would be able to use fewer assets and still achieve the same level of net interest income as a financial institution with a NIM of 3.50%.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The net interest margin (“NIM”) was 3.26% for the second quarter of 2009, and 3.37% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 3.51% and 3.52% for the same periods in 2008. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2009, the net interest spread decreased thirteen basis points to 2.75%, from 2.88% for the
same period in 2008. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, the net interest spread decreased three basis points to 2.84%, from 2.87% for the same period in 2008. This decline is primarily a result of the decreased yield on interest earning assets due to slightly lower loan yields and the decline in the investment security yields that were a result of increased amortization during the second quarter of 2009. The effect of non-interest bearing funds dropped 12 basis points
for both time periods compared to 2008, contributing to the decrease in net interest spread. The effect of non-interest bearing funds refers to the benefit gained from deposits on which the Bank does not pay interest. As rates go lower, the benefit of non-interest bearing deposits is reduced because there is less difference between no-cost funds and interest bearing liabilities. For example, if a savings account with $10,000 earns 1%, the benefit for $10,000 non-interest bearing
deposits is equivalent to $100; but if the rate is reduced to 0.20%, then the benefit is only $20. This assumes dollar-for-dollar replacement, which is not realistic, but demonstrates the way the lower cost of funds affects the benefit to non-interest bearing deposits.
The Asset Liability Committee (ALCO) carefully monitors the NIM because it indicates trends in net interest income, the Corporation’s largest source of revenue. For more information on the plans and strategies in place to protect the NIM and moderate the impact of rising rates, please see Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
about Market Risk.
Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses provides for losses inherent in the loan portfolio as determined by a quarterly analysis and calculation of various factors related to the loan portfolio. The amount of the provision reflects the adjustment management determines necessary to ensure the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover
any losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The Corporation added $376,000 to the allowance for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $349,000 for the same period in 2008. The Corporation gives special attention to the level of delinquent loans. The analysis of the allowance for loan losses takes into consideration, among other things, the following factors:
|
· |
Historical loan loss experience by loan type |
|
· |
Concentrations of credit risk |
|
· |
Volume of delinquent and non-performing loans |
|
· |
Collateral evaluation on a liquidation basis for specifically reviewed credits |
|
· |
Loan portfolio characteristics |
|
· |
Current economic conditions |
Despite the prolonged period of economic decline, specifically the weaker housing market and ongoing credit concerns, the Corporation has only experienced slight increases in loan delinquencies through June 30, 2009. At the time of the writing of this report, management’s most recent delinquency information indicated
rising levels of delinquencies for the third quarter of 2009. The provision expense of $376,000 for the first six months of 2009 was necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at calculated levels. While management believed the past $50,000 monthly provision was generally sufficient for the first six months of 2009, an additional $76,000 of provision was necessary as of June 30, 2009, to bring the allowance for loan losses to the calculated level. Subsequent to quarter
end, but prior to the filing of this report, management increased the monthly provision to $65,000, effective for the third quarter of 2009. Presently, management believes the current provision is sufficient to provide for the growth in the loan portfolio, as well as minor changes in credit risk; however, management will again reevaluate both the allowance for loan losses and the provision at the end of the third quarter of 2009. Management
continues to take a prudent stance in determining the allowance for loan losses and has continued to increase the allowance as a percentage of total loans, increasing this percentage to 1.06% at June 30, 2009, compared to 1.04% at June 30, 2008.
Management continues to evaluate the allowance for loan losses in relation to the growth of the loan portfolio and its associated credit risk. Management believes the new provision and the allowance for loan losses are adequate to provide for future loan losses based on the current portfolio and the current economic environment. For
further discussion of the calculation, see the “Allowance for Loan Losses” section under Financial Condition.
Other Income
Other income for the second quarter of 2009 was $1,750,000, an increase of $387,000, or 28.4%, compared to the $1,363,000 earned during the second quarter of 2008. For the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2009, other income totaled $3,322,000, an increase of $603,000, or 22.2% over the same period in 2008. The following

Trust and investment services revenue consists of income from traditional trust services and income from alternative investment services provided through a third party. For the three months ended June 30, 2009, traditional trust service income increased $50,000, or 25.0%, over the same period in 2008. For the six months
ended June 30, 2009, traditional trust service income decreased $20,000, or 4.8%, over the same period in 2008. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, alternative investment services income increased $16,000, or 25.8%, and $29,000, or 24.8%, over the same periods in 2008. The trust and investment services area continues to be an area of strategic focus. Management believes there is a great need for retirement, estate, and small business planning in the Corporation’s
service area. Management also sees these services as being a necessary part of a comprehensive line of financial solutions across the organization.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased by $206,000, or 66.9%, and $374,000, or 60.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. Overdraft service charges are the largest component of this category, as well as the primary reason for the increase. These fees comprised
93% of the total deposit service charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, and increased 83.2% and 73.4% over the respective three and six-month periods in 2008. New operational procedures for posting transactions and assessing overdraft charges that began in the fourth quarter of 2008 caused this increase. Management expects that overdraft income for 2009 will show a significant increase over 2008.
Other fees increased by $2,000 and $28,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. This is primarily due to an increase in loan-related fees. When customers choose to amend the original terms of their mortgage agreement, to change the length of the term, or to change the
rate, they are assessed fees based on the remaining loan balance. These amendments allow customers to obtain favorable terms without completely rewriting the loan. These loan amendments do not involve delinquent loans, or loans with collateral
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
quality deterioration, which are restructured loans. Mortgage amendment activity was popular throughout the first six months of 2009 due to lower mortgage interest rates.
The largest component of commission income is from the Debit MasterCard® commissions. The amount of customer usage of the card at point of sale transactions determines the level of commission income received. The debit card income of $299,000 for the second quarter of 2009 is an increase of $16,000, or 5.7%, over
the same period in 2008. Similarly, debit card income increased $27,000, or 5.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to the same period in 2008. Customers have become more comfortable with the use of debit cards, as they are now widely accepted by merchants, thereby increasing the number of transactions processed. Another large component of commission income is from MasterCard and Visa® commissions, which provided income of $45,000 and $82,000 for the three
and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009. These amounts are comparable to the commissions earned during the same periods in 2008. MasterCard and Visa commissions are the amount the Corporation earns on transactions processed through the MasterCard and Visa systems for business customers. Management expects both of these categories to increase as the reliance on electronic payment systems expands.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, $88,000 and $156,000 of gains on the sale of securities were recorded respectively, compared to $86,000 and $112,000 of gains for the same periods in 2008. Gains or losses on the sale of securities fluctuate based on opportunities to reposition the securities portfolio to improve
long-term earnings, or as part of management’s asset liability goals to improve liquidity or reduce interest rate or fair value risk. The gains or losses on this type of activity fluctuate based on current market prices and the volume of security sales.
Gains on the sale of mortgages are higher through the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008, primarily because of an increase in mortgage activity. Secondary mortgage financing activity drives the gains on the sale of mortgages, which showed an increase of $43,000, or 116.2%, for the
first three months of 2009, and $72,000, or 96.0%, for the first six months of 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. Given the current housing market conditions, management anticipates that the gain or loss on sale of mortgages may decline.
The earnings on BOLI increased marginally for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, as compared to the same periods in 2008. Management does not foresee any further BOLI purchases in 2009; therefore, increases in BOLI income generally result from increases in the cash surrender value. Benefits paid upon
death that exceed the policy’s cash surrender value are recorded as miscellaneous income.
The miscellaneous income category increased $41,000, or 124.2%, for the first three months of 2009, and $24,000, or 14.4%, for the first six months of 2009 over the same periods in 2008. This category had a number of offsetting increases and decreases. There was an increase of $14,000 due to an additional sales tax refund
received in the second quarter of 2009. For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, amortization of mortgage servicing assets decreased $9,000 and $26,000 from the respective levels in the same periods of 2008. This decrease in amortization resulted in an overall increase in the miscellaneous income category, as the amortization of mortgage servicing assets is netted against mortgage servicing income.

Salaries and employee benefits are the largest category of operating expenses. In general, they comprise more than 50% of the Corporation’s total operating expense. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, salaries and benefits increased $101,000, or 3.9%, and $327,000, or 6.2%, over the same periods in
2008. The increase was primarily due to additional staff for a new branch, costs related to transitions in the organizational structure, and typical merit increases. The increase in salary expenses also impacts associated expenses such as payroll taxes, pension expense, as well as higher medical and benefit insurance. Medical insurance costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, increased $37,000, or 13.3%, and $113,000, or 19.6%, over the same periods in 2008. The
cause of the increase in medical insurance costs was twofold: higher premiums and additional employees electing coverage under the Corporation’s plan.
Occupancy expenses consist of the following:
|
· |
Depreciation of bank buildings |
|
· |
Real estate taxes and property insurance |
|
· |
Utilities |
|
· |
Building repair and maintenance |
Occupancy expenses have increased by $48,000, or 15.7%, and $96,000, or 15.8%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. The increases were spread across all occupancy categories. Building depreciation increased $12,000, or 9.6%, and $24,000, or 9.8%, over the respective three
and six-month periods in 2008, mostly due to the addition of a new branch. Utility expenses were higher by $24,000, or 26.8%, and
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
$44,000, or 23.0%, over the respective three and six-month periods in 2008 due to higher energy costs affecting electric and oil prices. The cost of electricity alone is $13,000 higher in the second quarter of 2009, and $24,000 higher on a year-to-date basis in 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. The Corporation’s
main electricity provider increased rates approximately 40% in 2009. Building repair and maintenance costs continue to rise in tandem with more facilities, higher costs related to materials and supplies, and costs associated with the aging of facilities.
Equipment expenses decreased $27,000, or 11.4%, and $52,000, or 11.1%, for the first three and six months of 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. This is primarily because equipment service contracts decreased $15,000, or 23.1%, and $30,000, or 23.2%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same
periods in 2008. Some of the Corporation’s larger investment technology contracts have decreased because of purchases of new equipment with lower levels of maintenance contracts. Additionally, depreciation on furniture and equipment decreased $17,000, or 12.2%, and $25,000, or 9.0%, for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009. Equipment assets have short lives, generally five to seven years. The Corporation placed a significant amount of furniture
and equipment assets into service between five and ten years ago that are now fully depreciated. Specifically, all the furniture and equipment placed into service at the Lititz Branch Office became fully depreciated in January 2009.
Advertising and marketing expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, were $15,000, or 17.4%, and $37,000, or 22.2% higher than the same periods in 2008. The expenses of this category support the overall business strategies of the Corporation; therefore, the timing of these expenses is dependent upon those strategies. The
Corporation had a new advertising campaign, including radio and television, produced in 2009 to highlight the strength of our community focus.
The computer software and data processing expenses are comprised of STAR® network processing fees, software amortization, software purchases, and software maintenance agreements. This expense category increased $31,000, or 8.4%, and $13,000, or 1.7%, for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same
periods in 2008. The STAR network fees are the fees paid to process all ATM and debit card transactions. The total STAR network service fees were up $24,000, or 11.8%, and $16,000, or 3.8%, for the respective three and six-month periods. Software-related expenses increased $6,000, or 3.8%, for the first three months of 2009, compared to the same period in 2008, and decreased $3,000, or 0.9%, for the first six months of 2009, compared to the same period in 2008.
Bank shares tax expense decreased $42,000, or 18.7%, for the second quarter of 2009 over the same period in 2008. In the first quarter of 2008, the Corporation began to increase the bank shares tax expense due to a State of Pennsylvania policy change that no longer exempted shares of common stock held in charitable trusts as part
of the Bank Shares Tax calculation. Because of the policy change, all of the Corporation’s common shares are subject to the tax. Management does not anticipate a substantial increase in this expense through 2009 compared to 2008.
Professional services expense increased $100,000, or 28.4%, and $337,000, or 55.6%, for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. These services include accounting and auditing fees, legal fees, loan review fees, and other third-party services. In 2008, management engaged
the consulting unit of the Corporation’s core-processing vendor to conduct an organizational efficiency and income generation initiative. The fees associated with that contract amounted to $481,000 in 2008 of outside services expense with an additional $275,000 paid in the first six months of 2009. Legal costs decreased $29,000 and $45,000 for the first three and six-month periods of 2009 compared to the same periods in 2008. Legal fees in 2008 were higher due to the legal
work related to the formation of a bank holding company. Student loan servicing expense increased $57,000 and $78,000 for the respective three and six-month periods. Previously, servicing costs on student loans were offset by a credit from the Department of Education. Those credits are no longer available; and therefore, the expenses are higher than in the past. Management expects this expense to continue to be substantially higher than in prior years. The
remainder of the increase in outside services occurred among a variety of different service providers.
The expenses associated with FDIC insurance increased by $286,000 and $689,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 009, over the same periods in 2008. The FDIC expenses for 2009 include the significantly higher charges for the FDIC insurance fund, which included a 140% rate increase that became effective in the fourth quarter
of 2008, and expenses for a special one-time assessment of 5 basis points, which was due as of June 30, 2009.
The one-time time assessment, which was initially proposed at 20 basis points, was finalized at 5 basis points, based on the newly proposed legislation that had gained much support. The initial 20 basis point one-time assessment, on top of a 140% rate increase, created such a large negative response by the banking community, economists,
and legislators that new proposals quickly ensued. The new proposals centered on allowing the FDIC fund to be replenished over a longer period of time, so as not to cause undue harm on financial institutions in the midst of the
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
current credit crisis. The new proposals were heavily reliant on providing the FDIC with additional borrowing capacity at the U.S. Treasury. It should be noted that the initial 20 basis point proposed assessment was based off the standard deposit formula, whereas the final proposal of 5 basis points was approved based
on an asset-size formula. For the Corporation, a 5 basis point assessment based on deposits translates into a 5.9 basis point increase based on asset size. This special one-time assessment resulted in additional expense of $326,000 for the first six months of 2009 as compared to 2008. As part of the legislation that brought down the one-time assessment to 5 basis points, the FDIC will have the flexibility to add a special assessment in the third or fourth quarters of 2009, if
necessary, of 5 cents per $100 of assets, minus Tier 1 capital.
In the second quarter of 2009, the Senate voted in favor of the Deposit Insurance Bill S. 896, which extends the FDIC’s borrowing authority with the U.S. Treasury from $30 billion to $100 billion, with emergency funding up to $500 billion. The expanded borrowing authority was needed to cut the planned 20 basis point assessment
to the 5 basis point assessment. The legislation also extends the temporary deposit insurance coverage increase to $250,000 through the end of 2013. The bill must now be reconciled with H.R. 1106, which was passed by the House in March 2009.
Other operating expenses include the remainder of the Corporation’s operating expenses. Some of the larger items included in this category are:
|
· |
Postage |
|
· |
Director fees and expense |
|
· |
Travel expense |
|
· |
General supplies |
|
· |
Charitable contributions |
|
· |
Delinquent loan expenses |
|
· |
Deposit account charge-off s and recoveries |
Other operating expenses increased by $27,000, or 6.8%, and $123,000, or 16.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, over the same periods in 2008. The primary reason for this increase can be attributed to an increased amount of charge-offs on the deposit side related to the implementation of the overdraft
procedural change as well as fraud-related charge-offs. These total charge-offs accounted for an increase of $4,000 and $53,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, as compared to the same periods in 2008. The additional increase in other operating expenses is attributable to multiple increases and decreases in other expense items.
Income Taxes
The majority of the Corporation’s income is taxed at a corporate rate of 34% for Federal income tax purposes. The Corporation is also subject to Pennsylvania Corporate Net Income Tax; however, the Corporation has no taxable corporate net income activities. The Corporation’s wholly owned subsidiary, Ephrata
National Bank, is not subject to state income tax, but does pay Pennsylvania Bank Shares Tax. The Bank Shares Tax expense appears on the Corporation’s Consolidated Statements of Income, under operating expenses.
Certain items of income are not subject to Federal income tax, such as tax-exempt interest income on loans and securities; therefore, the effective income tax rate for the Corporation is lower than the stated tax rate. The effective tax rate is calculated by dividing the Corporation’s provision for income tax by the pretax
income for the applicable period.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the Corporation recorded a tax expense of $188,000 and $226,000 respectively, compared to $220,000 and $411,000 for the same periods in 2008. The benefit of a high level of tax-free assets, combined with lower pretax income was responsible for the reduction of the tax expense. The
effective tax rate for the Corporation was 13.0% and 8.8%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 13.3% and 12.7% for the same periods in 2008.
Due to lower earnings and a large percentage of tax-free income compared to total income, the Corporation became subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT) in 2006. The Corporation has remained in an AMT position since. The AMT affects the amount of Federal income tax due and paid, but it does not affect the book tax
provision. Management allowed some tax-free municipal securities to decline since they were subject to AMT. However, in recent months, tax-free municipal securities not subject to AMT have been purchased. The portfolio of these investments allows the Corporation to maintain tax-free assets at a reasonable level so that tax-exempt income as a percentage of total income can remain at the desired level.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Financial Condition
Securities Available for Sale
The Corporation classifies all of its securities as available for sale and reports the portfolio at fair market value. As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation had $240.6 million of securities available for sale, which accounted for 33.5% of assets, compared to 31.1% as of December 31, 2008, and 34.0% as of June 30, 2008. Based
on ending balances, the securities portfolio increased 4.1% from June 30, 2008 to June 30, 2009.
The Corporation typically invests excess liquidity into securities, primarily fixed-income bonds. The securities portfolio provides interest and dividend income to supplement the interest income on loans. Additionally, the securities portfolio assists in the management of both liquidity risk and interest rate risk. In
order to provide flexibility for management of liquidity and interest rate risks, the securities portfolio is classified as available for sale and reported at fair value. Management adjusts the value of all the Corporation’s securities on a monthly basis to fair market value as determined in accordance with FAS 115 Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt & Equity Securities. Management does not intend to sell any security until it
reaches full recovery and does not believe it will be required to sell before such a recovery. Therefore, management does not record impairment on the bonds currently valued below par. Equity securities generally pose a greater risk to loss of principal, as management no longer has the ability to hold these securities to a maturity date to receive all principal. All securities are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis. Should any impairment occur, management
would write down the security to a fair market value in accordance with both FAS 115 and FAS 157, with the amount recorded as a loss on securities.
Each quarter, management sets portfolio allocation guidelines and adjusts the security portfolio strategy generally based on the following factors:
|
· |
Performance of the various instruments |
|
· |
Direction of interest rates |
|
· |
Slope of the yield curve |
|
· |
ALCO positions as to liquidity, interest rate risk, and net portfolio value |
|
· |
State of the economy and credit risk |
The investment policy of the Corporation imposes guidelines to ensure diversification within the portfolio. The diversity specifications provide opportunities to maximize yield and minimize credit risk. The composition of the securities portfolio based on fair market value is shown in the following table.

At the beginning of the year, the Corporation was able to utilize the positively sloped treasury curve to add higher yielding securities to the portfolio, increasing portfolio income from both a volume and rate standpoint. This action was taken in part to offset the slower loan growth. The majority of growth occurred
in government agencies and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs). Government agencies, mortgage-backed instruments (MBS), and CMOs all have the backing of the U.S. Government. These types of instruments provide solid credit risk protection, and all have AAA ratings. Due to the structure of the U.S. agencies, MBS, and CMO’s that management has purchased, these three types provide sufficient and dependable monthly cash flow streams to assist with liquidity management. In
the current low interest rate environment, these cash flow streams have increased as borrowers are making additional
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
principal payments on mortgages. These additional principal payments provide the Corporation with more liquidity but also cause both prepayment risk and reinvestment risk. Prepayment risk occurs as management is forced to amortize any premiums on these securities more rapidly as principal payments increase. This
causes the yield on these investments to decrease. Reinvestment risk occurs when interest rates are low and principal payments increase forcing management to reinvest these proceeds into instruments carrying lower market rates.
Obligations of states and political subdivisions, often referred to as municipal bonds, are tax-free securities that generally provide the highest yield in the securities portfolio. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, the Corporation was in an alternative minimum tax (AMT) position when income levels fell and tax-exempt income remained high. The
AMT requires the payment of a minimum level of tax should an entity have excessive amounts of tax preference items relative to a Corporation’s income. The Corporation’s primary tax preference item is the large amount of tax-free income generated by tax-free loans and tax-exempt securities. As a result of the Corporation’s AMT tax position, management had determined that the size of the municipal bond holdings in relation to the rest of the securities portfolio should be
decreased. Sizable reductions in tax-free assets would assist the Corporation in emerging from an AMT position. For that reason, management has slowed investment in municipal bonds that are subject to AMT and has reduced the percentage of municipal bonds as a percentage of the total portfolio from 23.5% on June 30, 2008, to 22.3% as of June 30, 2009. During the second quarter of 2009, there have been some purchases of municipal securities that are not subject to alternative minimum tax. These
acquisitions allow the Corporation to gain the benefits of tax-free income while in an alternative minimum tax position.
During the fourth quarter of 2008 and through the first half of 2009, market volatility, economic slowdown, and the collapse of several large financial institutions caused the downgrading of many securities. This phenomenon has affected all segments of the Corporation’s portfolio not backed by the U.S. Government, specifically
Private Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (PCMOs), corporate bonds, and municipal bonds. According to policy, management has decided to hold all securities with credit ratings that have fallen below minimum policy credit ratings required at the time of purchase. Management monitors the security ratings on a monthly basis and quarterly, with Board approval, determines whether it is in the Corporation’s best interest to continue to hold any security that has fallen below policy guidelines.
As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation held seven PCMO securities with a book value of $18.6 million, a reduction of $1.1 million from balances as of March 31, 2009. Five of these securities with a book value of $13.4 million carried an AAA credit rating by at least one of the major credit rating services. The two
remaining PCMO’s, with a book value of $5.2 million, had credit ratings below investment grade which is BBB- for S&P and Baa3 for Moody’s. Management currently has no plans to sell these securities as cash flow analysis performed under severe stress testing does not indicate a need to take impairment on these bonds. Prepayment speeds on all of the Corporation’s PCMO’s are relatively fast which is assisting in the cash flow analysis. Faster prepayment
speeds make it more likely that the Corporation’s principal is returned before any credit losses are incurred.
As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation held corporate bonds with a total book value of $16.3 million. As part of these holdings, the Corporation held two CIT Group corporate bonds, each $1 million. One CIT Group bond had a rating below policy requirements but was to mature on July 15, 2009. The other $1
million CIT Group bond held a single A credit rating, and was to mature on December 31, 2009. Subsequent to June 30, 2009, but prior to the filing of this report, CIT Group began experiencing severe financial problems. Information regarding a possible bankruptcy and lack of a potential government intervention became public the week of July 13, 2009. On July 15, 2009, the Corporation received full payment on the first CIT Group bond; however bond prices were rapidly declining on
outstanding CIT Group bonds. With bond prices on the December 15, 2009 maturity falling to less than 50 cents on the dollar, on July 16, 2009, management acted to sell the remaining $1 million of CIT Group bonds to avoid even greater losses. As a result of this sell, the Corporation recorded $526,000 of losses on this transaction. Therefore, as of July 16, 2009, the Corporation no longer held any CIT Group bonds and corporate bond holdings were down to $14.3 million of book value. All
the remaining corporate bonds held have single A credit ratings by at least one major service. Currently, there are no indications that any of these bonds would discontinue contractual payments.
Since 2008, the municipal bond ratings have been adversely affected by downgrades on nearly all of the insurance companies backing municipal bond issues. Previous to the sharp decline in the health of the insurance companies, nearly 95% of the Corporation’s municipal bonds carried AAA credit ratings with the added insurance
protection. Now, with the health of most of the insurers greatly diminished, the final rating of most municipal bonds has fallen to AA or A. As of June 30, 2009, only 27% of the Corporation’s municipal bonds carried an AAA rating. The Corporation’s investment policy requires that municipal bonds not carrying insurance have a minimum credit rating of single A at time of purchase. As of June 30, 2009, eleven municipal bonds with a book value of $5.1 million
carried credit ratings under A. In the current environment, the major rating services have tightened their credit underwriting procedures and are more apt to downgrade municipalities. Additionally, the very weak economy has reduced revenue streams for many
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
municipalities and has called into question the basic premise that municipalities have unlimited power to tax, i.e. the ability to raise taxes to compensate for revenue shortfalls. Presently, despite the lower credit ratings on the eleven municipal securities, management has the intent and the ability to hold these securities
to maturity and believes that full recovery of principal is probable.
The entire securities portfolio is reviewed monthly for credit risk and evaluated quarterly for possible impairment. In terms of credit risk and impairment, management views the Corporation’s CRA fund investment differently because it has no maturity date. Bond investments could have larger unrealized losses
but significantly less probability of impairment due to having a fixed maturity date. As of June 30, 2009, the CRA fund was showing unrealized losses of $113,000, or a 5.7% price decline. The prices on this fund tend to lag behind decreases in U.S. Treasury rates. Management believes that the price declines are primarily rate driven, and temporary as opposed to permanent. Corporate bonds and private mortgage-backed securities have the most potential credit risk out of the
Corporation’s debt instruments. Due to the rapidly changing credit environment and weak economic conditions, management is closely monitoring all corporate bonds and all private label securities. As of June 30, 2009, none of the Corporation’s unrealized security losses were considered other than temporary.
Loans
Net loans outstanding increased $34.1 million, or 8.9%, to $416.2 million at June 30, 2009, from $382.1 million at June 30, 2008. Net loans increased $8.4 million, or 2.1%, since December 31, 2008.

and June 30, 2008.

Residential real estate loans do not include mortgage loans sold to and serviced for Fannie Mae. These loans totaled $11,777,000 as June 30, 2009, $11,058,000 as of December 31, 2008, and $10,470,000 as of June 30, 2008. |
The composition of the loan portfolio has undergone minor changes in recent years. The total of all categories of real estate loans comprises more than 75% of total loans. Residential real estate is the largest category of the loan portfolio, consisting of approximately 39% of total loans. This category
includes first mortgages, second mortgages, and home equity loans. The residential real estate loans grew throughout 2008; however, in the first half of 2009, the category showed declines as principal payments exceeded new loan growth. Current economic and market conditions have reduced the demand for residential real estate loans. Most loan requests are for 30-year mortgages, which are all sold to the secondary market. Additionally, requests for fixed rate home equity
loans have slowed, while home equity lines of credit, which float on the Prime rate, have increased. This trend is occurring because consumers are seeking the lowest interest rate to borrow money against their home value. It is likely to reverse once the Prime rate is increased and floating rate loans become less attractive to borrowers. Management anticipates slow growth in the residential real estate area through the remainder of 2009.
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Commercial real estate loans have also grown since June 2008, but demand has dropped off significantly in the first six months of 2009. Commercial real estate includes both owner and non-owner occupied properties. The majority of growth has occurred in owner occupied, which does not rely substantially on lease agreements. However,
even the demand for owner occupied loans has slowed since most businesses are not expanding during uncertain economic conditions. It is anticipated that growth in commercial real estate will lag a recovery by the economy.
Commercial loans not secured by real estate are just over half as large as the Corporation’s real estate secured commercial loans. This portfolio of loans showed moderate growth from June 30, 2008 to December 31, 2008, and then began to grow at a faster rate through the first six months of 2009, showing an increase of
$3.1 million, or 4.4%, over the December 31, 2008 balance. Several large lines of credit were added to the portfolio which primarily contributed to the increase from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009. In the current interest rate environment, with fixed commercial loan rates significantly higher than Prime-based variable rate lines of credit, the Corporation is experiencing a shift from fixed rate commercial loans to more Prime-based variable rate loans. The majority of commercial
customers believe the Prime rate will remain low for a period of time; and therefore desire to lower their borrowing costs by drawing on their lines of credit to pay down their fixed rate loans. In other cases where the borrower is in search of new financing, they are currently looking at variable rate financing as opposed to fixed rate financing, whether it is real estate secured or not.
The construction loans secured by real estate grew in the first half of 2009 by $11.2 million, or 82.5%, on a relatively small component of the Corporation’s loan portfolio. After slowing throughout most of 2008, several of the Bank’s commercial customers went ahead with construction projects in the last quarter
of 2008 and into the first half of 2009. Some projects were started in the fourth quarter of 2008, but significant draws on their lines of credit only began in 2009. These projects were not necessarily residential real estate construction, but construction undertaken by commercial customers to update or expand facilities.
The consumer loan portfolio remains stable, but has decreased as a percentage of the Corporation’s total loan portfolio since June 30, 2008. In recent years, home owners have turned to equity in their homes to finance cars and education rather than traditional consumer loans for those expenditures. Additionally,
specialized lenders have emerged for consumer needs. Due to current liquidity conditions, specialized lenders began pulling back on the availability of credit and more favorable credit terms. The underwriting standards of major financing and credit card companies began to strengthen after years of lower credit standards. This led consumers to seek unsecured credit away from national finance companies and back to their bank of choice. Management has seen the need for additional
unsecured credit increase; however, this increased need for credit has not resulted in higher levels of consumer loans for the Corporation. Balances in the Corporation’s consumer loan portfolio remained static from June 30, 2008 to December 31, 2008, but increased slightly between December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2009. The average length of the consumer loan portfolio is relatively short. Presently, any growth in new loans is being offset by principal payments on existing loans. In the
current weak economy, customers will delay purchases of new and used cars which has the impact of reducing the consumer loan portfolio, as lower amounts of new loans are going on the books. Management anticipates that the need for unsecured credit may grow during this current credit crisis and economic downturn, as many consumers need to access all available credit. Their other sources of real estate secured credit are not available due to declines in collateral value.

Non-performing assets increased $3.3 million from June 30, 2008 to June 30, 2009. This increase was a result of a combination of items that caused each category above to reflect significant increases over the balances reported as of June 30, 2008. The Corporation’s total non-accrual loans increased $394,000
from June 30, 2008 to June 30, 2009. This increase was primarily a result of adding one line of credit totaling $883,000 with some offsetting decreases due to loans being paid off, becoming current, or being charged-off resulting in them being removed from non-accrual status. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing increased by $838,000 from June 30, 2008 to June 30, 2009, and $939,000 from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009. This is primarily the result of two loans
totaling $980,000 to the same commercial borrower which became over 90 days delinquent in the second quarter of 2009. Subsequent to June 30, 2009, but prior to the filing of this report, the borrower was placed on non-accrual status. The increase in troubled debt restructurings primarily resulted from the addition of two loans with balances of $1,579,000 as of June 30, 2009. These loans were to a single commercial borrower and were classified as troubled debt restructurings as
of March 31, 2009. Management is monitoring delinquency trends closely in light of the current weak economic conditions. At this time, management believes that the potential for significant losses related to non-performing loans is increasing.
As of June 30, 2009, other real estate owned (“OREO”) is shown at a recorded fair market value $520,000, net of anticipated selling costs. The balance consists of one manufacturing property that has been in OREO since December 2006. This property is under an agreement of sale. Settlement on
the sale has been deferred, pending the completion of a due-diligence period whereby the property meets all contingencies of the agreement.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is established to cover any losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance each quarter based upon a detailed analysis and calculation of the allowance for loan losses. This calculation is based upon a systematic methodology for determining the
allowance for loan losses in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The calculation includes estimates and is based upon losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The calculation, and detailed analysis supporting it, emphasizes delinquent and non-performing loans. The allowance calculation includes specific provisions for non-performing loans and general allocations to cover anticipated losses on all loan types based on historical losses. Based on the
quarterly loan loss calculation, management will adjust the allowance for loan losses through the provision as necessary. Changes to the allowance for loan losses during the year are primarily affected by three events:
|
· |
Charge off of loans considered not recoverable |
|
· |
Recovery of loans previously charged off |
|
· |
Provision for loan losses |
Strong credit and collateral policies have been instrumental in producing a favorable history of loan losses. The Allowance for Loan Losses table below shows the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. At the bottom of the table, two benchmark percentages
are shown. The first is net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans outstanding for the year. The second is the total allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans.

Charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2009, were $153,000 compared to $71,000 for the same period in 2008. Management typically charges off unsecured debt over 90 days delinquent with little likelihood of recovery. The consumer charge-offs were higher in the first six months of 2009 compared to 2008 due to
a single home equity loan that was charged off for $57,000. Aside from the home equity charge-off, consumer loan charge-offs remained relatively stable.
The allowance as a percentage of total loans represents the portion of the total loan portfolio for which an allowance has been provided. The composition of the Corporation’s loan portfolio has not changed materially from June 30, 2008. However, management regularly reviews the overall risk profile of the loan portfolio
and the impact that current economic trends have on the Corporation’s loans. The financial industry typically evaluates the quality of loans on a scale with unclassified representing healthy loans, to special mention being the first indication of credit concern, to several successive classified ratings indicating further credit declines of substandard, doubtful, and ultimately loss. Continued downgrades by management in the business loan and business mortgage portfolios have
resulted in more classified loans. The Corporation’s total classified loans increased from $10.8 million as of December 31, 2008 to $14.8 million as of June 30, 2009. These classifications require larger provision amounts due to a higher potential risk of loss. Management anticipates maintaining the allowance as a percentage of total loans above 1.00% for the foreseeable future.
The net charge-offs as a percentage of average total loans outstanding indicates the percentage of the Corporation’s total loan portfolio that has been charged off during the period, after reducing charge-offs by recoveries. The Corporation has historically experienced very low net charge-off percentages due to management’s
strong credit practices. The 0.03% shown for the first six months of 2009 is similar to charge-off rates experienced in 2004 and 2005. The 0.00% for the first six months of 2008 indicates that recoveries and charge-offs for that period were nearly identical. Management is monitoring charge-off activity closely and is anticipating that there may be some increases throughout the remainder of 2009; however, prudent lending management practices are in place to reduce the number and
severity of losses.

Premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, increased by $1,531,000, or 8.4%, to $19,842,000 as of June 30, 2009, from $18,311,000, as of June 30, 2008. During 2008, a new branch facility located in Penn Township was constructed with building, equipment, and furnishings totaling $2.8 million. As of June
30, 2009, $406,000 was classified as construction in process. The construction in process includes payments for renovations at the Denver Office and Main Office locations. For further information on construction commitments see the off-balance sheet arrangements section.
Deposits
The Corporation’s total ending deposits increased $48.4 million, or 9.5%, and $46.4 million, or 9.1%, from June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Customer deposits are the Corporation’s primary source of funding for loans and investments. During 2008 and continuing into the first half of 2009,
the economic concerns and poor performance of other types of investments led customers back to banks for safe places to invest money, despite low interest rates. The mix of deposit categories has remained relatively stable. The Deposits by Major Classification table, shown below, provides the balances of each category for June 30, 2009, December 31, 2008, and June 30, 2008.

The growth and mix of deposits is often driven by several factors including:
|
· |
Convenience and service provided |
|
· |
Fees |
|
· |
Permanence of the institution |
|
· |
Possible risks associated with other investment opportunities |
|
· |
Current rates paid on deposits compared to competitor rates |
The Corporation has been a stable presence in the local area and offers convenient locations, low service fees, and competitive interest rates because of a strong commitment to the customers and the communities that it serves. Management has always priced products and services in a manner that makes them affordable for
all customers. This in turn creates a high degree of customer loyalty, and a stable deposit base. Additionally, as financial institutions have come under increased scrutiny from both regulators and customers, the Bank has maintained an outstanding reputation. The Corporation’s deposit base increased as a result of customers seeking a longstanding reliable institution as a partner to meet their financial needs. Additionally, a new branch location opened in September
2008 contributing to additional deposit growth.
Time deposits are typically a more rate-sensitive product, making it a less reliable source of funding. Time deposits fluctuate as consumers search for the best rates in the market, with less allegiance to any particular financial institution. As of June 30, 2009, time deposit balances, excluding brokered deposits, had increased
$44.0 million, or 20.8%, and $32.6 million, or 14.6%, from June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2008, respectively. Due to an asset liability strategy of lengthening liabilities while interest rates are at historical lows, the Corporation’s recent time deposit strategy has been to offer long-term time deposit rates that exceed the average rates offered by the local competing banks. This strategy was
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
successful in both increasing and lengthening the Corporation’s liabilities. The Corporation’s time deposits also increased due to consumers who were concerned with a declining stock market and declining financial conditions of local, regional, and national banks that compete with the Corporation. Customers
have been seeking a safe, consistent investment to an even greater extent than during previous declines in the equity markets. This condition continues to prevail at the time of the writing of this filing. Time deposits are a safe investment with FDIC coverage insuring no loss of principal up to certain levels. Prior to October 3, 2008, FDIC coverage was $100,000 on non-IRA time deposits and $250,000 on IRA time deposits. Effective October 3, 2008, the FDIC insurance
increased to $250,000 for all deposit accounts with the signing of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. As the equity market continued to decline in 2008 and 2009, customers began placing more and more time deposits in financial institutions; however, they did not want to exceed the FDIC insurance limits. The increase in FDIC coverage enabled time deposit customers to increase their deposit balances held with the Corporation. Management anticipates that the growth
of time deposits will slow as the stock market and other financial institutions begin to strengthen.
Borrowings
Total borrowings were $88.9 million, $103.8 million and $97.0 million as of June 30, 2009, December 31, 2008, and June 30, 2008, respectively. The Corporation was purchasing short-term funds of $1.9 million as of June 30, 2009, compared to $11.8 million at the end of 2008, with no short-term funds purchased as of June 30, 2008.
Short-term funds are used for immediate liquidity needs and are not typically part of an ongoing liquidity or interest rate risk strategy; therefore, they fluctuate more rapidly. The short-term funds are purchased through correspondent and member bank relationships as overnight borrowings.
Total long-term borrowings were $87.0 million, $92.0 million, and $97.0 million as of June 30, 2009, December 31, 2008, and June 30, 2008. The Corporation uses two main sources for long-term borrowings: Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances and repurchase agreements obtained through brokers. Both of
these types of borrowings are used as a secondary source of funding and to mitigate interest rate risk. These long-term funding instruments are typically a more manageable funding source in regard to amount, timing, and rate for interest rate risk and liquidity purposes compared to deposits. Over the course of the past year, the Corporation has minimally changed the FHLB and brokered repurchase borrowing agreements. Management will continue to analyze and compare the costs and
benefits of borrowing versus obtaining funding from deposits.
In order to limit the Corporation’s exposure and reliance to a single funding source, the Corporation’s Asset Liability Policy sets a goal of maintaining the amount of borrowings from the FHLB to 15% of asset size. As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation was within this policy guideline at 7.9% of asset size with $57.0
million of total FHLB borrowings. The Corporation also has a policy that limits total borrowings from all sources to 150% of the Corporation’s capital. As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation was within this policy guideline at 131.3% of capital with $88.9 million total borrowings from all sources. The Corporation has maintained FHLB borrowings and total borrowings within these policy guidelines throughout the first half of 2009.
The Corporation continues to be well under the FHLB maximum borrowing capacity (MBC), which is currently $303.7 million. The Corporation’s two internal policy limits are far more restrictive than the FHLB MBC, which is calculated and set quarterly by FHLB. Due to recent circumstances in the financial and mortgage
sectors, FHLB has been under regulatory and operating performance pressures and has taken steps to preserve capital. As a result, FHLB has suspended the dividend paid on stock owned by banks that have outstanding FHLB borrowings. Additionally, FHLB will no longer repurchase excess stock if a bank reduces its borrowings. For this reason, management is committed to maintaining current borrowing levels, but not placing more reliance on FHLB for additional borrowings.
Stockholders’ Equity
Federal Regulatory authorities require banks to meet minimum capital levels. The Corporation maintains capital ratios well above those minimum levels and higher than the Corporation’s peer group average. The risk-weighted capital ratios are calculated by dividing capital by total risk-weighted assets. Regulatory
guidelines determine the risk-weighted assets by assigning assets to one of four risk-weighted categories. The calculation of tier I capital to risk-weighted average assets does not include an add back to capital for the amount of the allowance for loan losses, thereby making this ratio lower than the total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio.
The following table reflects the capital ratios for the Corporation and Bank compared to the regulatory capital requirements.

The dividends per share for the second quarter of 2009 were the same as the second quarter of 2008 at $0.31 per share. Dividends are paid from current earnings and available retained earnings. Management’s current capital plan calls for management to maintain tier I capital to average assets between 9.0% and
12.0%. Management also desires a dividend payout ratio between 40% and 50%. This ratio will vary according to income, but over the long term, management’s goal is to average a payout ratio in this range. Since the dividends paid and the payout ratio is heavily dependent on the income earned, management is closely monitoring the ability to maintain current dividend levels, compared to the anticipated earnings for the year 2009.
The amount of unrealized gain or loss on the securities portfolio is reflected, net of tax, as an adjustment to capital, as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115. This is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the capital section of the balance sheet. An unrealized
gain increases capital, while an unrealized loss reduces capital. This requirement takes the position that if the Corporation liquidated the securities portfolio at the end of each period, the current unrealized gain or loss of the securities portfolio would directly impact the Corporation’s capital. As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation showed unrealized losses, net of tax, of $1,648,000, compared to unrealized losses of $963,000 as of December 31, 2008, and $2,108,000 as of June 30,
2008. The changes in unrealized losses are due to normal changes in market valuations of the Corporation’s securities as a result of interest rate movements.
On June 30, 2008, 130,443 shares of treasury stock held as a result of previous stock purchase plans, less shares utilized for the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and Dividend Reinvestment Plan, were retired. The retirement of treasury shares was required as part of the formation of ENB Financial Corp. Treasury shares
act as a reduction to capital; therefore, the retirement of treasury shares into common stock and capital surplus had no impact to the Corporation’s capital. Since the formation of the Corporation on July 1, 2008, 50,400 shares of treasury stock have been repurchased, and 14,723 reissued with 35,677 treasury shares existing on June 30, 2009, with a cost basis of $910,000.
Contractual Cash Obligations
The Corporation has a number of contractual obligations that arise from the normal course of business. A construction contract was signed in May 2009 for $1.5 million to renovate the Denver branch in 2009. As of the report date, $482,000 was paid under this contract.
Management signed a contract in March 2008 with the Corporation’s core processing vendor to conduct a comprehensive business processing improvement (“BPI”) engagement. The majority of the engagement occurred over the six-month period beginning in July 2008. Some benefits were realized in the fourth
quarter of 2008 with an acceleration of benefits to occur in 2009 and subsequent years. The financial goal of the BPI is to obtain $1.4 million to $2.2 million of annual pretax benefit through operational cost savings and revenue enhancements. The strategic goal of the BPI engagement is to be a more efficient organization, with better customer service, at increased levels of
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
profitability. The fees for the entire BPI engagement were $756,000 plus travel-related expenses; billed through April 2009 at a rate of $68,700 per month. All expenses related to this engagement have been paid.
Workforce realignment was a significant component of the Corporation’s BPI engagement. In conjunction with the workforce realignment, a voluntary separation package was offered in September 2008 to all employees with twenty or more years of service. On October 31, 2008, management established a $1,222,000 liability
in connection with the voluntary separation package. The liability covered all future separation obligations that were scheduled to be paid over 2009 and 2010 to 35 employees who accepted the package. As of June 30, 2009, $476,000 remained to be paid of the initial $1,222,000 liability established.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, the Corporation typically has off-balance sheet arrangements related to loan funding commitments. These arrangements may impact the Corporation’s financial condition and liquidity if they were to be exercised within a short period of time. As discussed in the following liquidity
section, the Corporation has in place sufficient liquidity alternatives to meet these obligations. The following table presents information on the commitments by the Corporation as of June 30, 2009.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a financial institution, the Corporation is subject to three primary risks:
|
· |
Credit risk |
|
· |
Liquidity risk |
|
· |
Interest rate risk |
The Board of Directors has established an Asset Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”) to measure, monitor, and manage these primary market risks. The Asset Liability Policy has instituted guidelines for all of these primary risks, as well as other financial performance measurements with target ranges. The
Asset Liability goals and guidelines are consistent with the Strategic Plan goals.
Credit Risk
For discussion on credit risk refer to the sections in Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis, on securities, non-performing assets and allowance for loan losses.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity refers to having an adequate supply of cash available to meet business needs. Financial institutions must ensure that there is adequate liquidity to meet a variety of funding needs, at a minimal cost. Minimal cost is an important component of liquidity. If a financial institution is required to take
significant action to obtain funding, and is forced to utilize an expensive source, it has not properly planned for its liquidity needs. Funding new loans and covering deposit withdrawals are the primary liquidity needs of the Corporation. The Corporation uses a variety of funding sources to meet liquidity needs, such as:
|
· |
Deposits |
|
· |
Loan repayments |
|
· |
Maturities and sales of securities |
|
· |
Borrowings from correspondent and member banks |
|
· |
Repurchase agreements |
|
· |
Brokered deposits |
|
· |
Current earnings |
As noted in the discussion on deposits, customers have historically provided a reliable and steadily increasing source of funds liquidity. The Corporation also has in place relationships with other banking institutions for the purpose of buying and selling Federal funds. The lines of credit with these institutions provide
immediate sources of additional liquidity. The Corporation currently has unsecured lines of credit totaling $23 million. An additional $2 million would be available upon pledging of sufficient collateral. This does not include amounts available from member banks such as the Federal Reserve Discount Window, the FHLB, and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank.
Management uses a cumulative maturity gap analysis to measure the amount of assets maturing within various periods versus liabilities maturing in those same periods. Management monitors six-month, one-year, three-year, and five-year cumulative gaps to determine liquidity risk. The Bank was within all GAP guidelines as
of June 30, 2009. Management expects all GAP ratios to remain within policy limits for the remainder of the year.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is measured using two analytical tools:
|
· |
Changes in net interest income |
|
· |
Changes in net portfolio value |
Financial modeling is used to forecast net interest income and earnings, as well as net portfolio value, also referred to as fair value. The modeling is generally conducted under seven different interest rate projections. The results obtained through the use of forecasting models are based on a variety of factors. Both
the income and fair value forecasts make use of the maturity and repricing schedules to determine the changes to the balance sheet over the course of time. Additionally, there are many assumptions that factor into the results. These assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following:
ENB FINANCIAL CORP
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
|
· |
Projected interest rates |
|
· |
Timing of interest rate changes |
|
· |
Prepayment speeds on the loans and mortgage-backed securities |
|
· |
Anticipated calls on financial instruments with call options |
|
· |
Deposit and loan balance fluctuations |
|
· |
Economic conditions |
|
· |
Consumer reaction to interest rate changes |
Each month, new financial information is supplied to the model and new forecasts are generated at least quarterly. The model has the ability to automatically revise growth rates for assets and liabilities, and reinvestment rates for interest earning and bearing funds based on a databank of historical financial information and key
interest rates that the model retains. Personnel perform an in depth annual validation and quarterly review of the settings and assumptions used in the model to ensure reliability of the forecast results. Back testing of the model to actual results is performed quarterly to ensure the validity of the assumptions in the model. Both the validation and back testing indicate that the model assumptions are reliable.
Changes in Net Interest Income
The change in net interest income measures the amount of net interest income fluctuation that would be experienced over one year, assuming interest rates change immediately and remain the same for one year. This is considered to be a short-term view of interest rate risk. The analysis of changes in net interest income due to changes
in interest rates is commonly referred to as interest rate sensitivity. The Corporation has historically been liability sensitive; meaning that as interest rates go up, the Corporation would likely achieve lower levels of net interest income due to sharper increases in the cost of funds than increases in asset yield. Likewise, if rates go down, there would be sharper reductions in the cost of funds than decreases to asset yield, causing an increase to net interest income.
The analysis projects the net interest income expected in seven different rate scenarios on a one-year time horizon. The scenarios consist of a projection of net interest income if rates remain flat, increase 100, 200, or 300 basis points, or decrease 100, 200, or 300 basis points. As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation
was within guidelines for the maximum amount of net interest income declines given all seven rate scenarios. The Corporation’s projected net interest income fluctuations given the seven different rate scenarios did not change materially from December 31, 2008.
As of June 30, 2009, the Federal funds target rate was between 0.00% and 0.25%, so it is likely the Federal Reserve will not lower rates any further. This means the exposure in this current rate environment is to the rates up scenarios; therefore, they are reviewed with more scrutiny. For the rates up scenarios of 100,
200, and 300 basis points, the net interest income decreases slightly compared to the rates unchanged scenario. Unlike the rates down scenarios, the amount of negative impact of rising rates is very minimal and the larger rate movements do not get progressively worse. The rates up 200 and 300 show slight improvements over the rates up 100 basis points. The limited negative impact of higher rates is because the impact of assets repricing to higher rates nearly offsets the normal
liability sensitivity of the Corporation, where a larger amount of liabilities reprice than assets. In the rates up scenarios, most of the variable rate loans reprice higher by the full amount of the Federal Reserve’s action; whereby, management is generally able to limit the amount of liability repricing to a fraction of the rate increase. Management does not expect the exposure to interest rate changes to increase or change significantly over the next twelve months.
Changes in Net Portfolio Value
The change in net portfolio value is considered a tool to measure long-term interest rate risk. The analysis measures the exposure of the balance sheet to valuation changes due to changes in interest rates. The calculation of net portfolio value discounts future cash flows to the present value based on current market
rates. The change in net portfolio value estimates the gain or loss that would occur on market sensitive instruments given an interest rate increase or decrease in the same seven scenarios mentioned under changes in net interest income above. As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation was within guidelines for all scenarios. The Corporation’s projected changes in net portfolio value given the seven different rate scenarios did not change materially from December 31, 2008.
The weakness with the net portfolio analysis is that it assumes liquidation of the Corporation rather than as a going concern. For that reason, it is considered a secondary measurement of interest rate risk to changes in net interest income discussed above.
