Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and to general practices within the banking industry. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all significant adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Certain items previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s reporting format. Such reclassifications did not affect net income or stockholders’ equity.

ENB Financial Corp (“the Corporation”) is the bank holding company for its wholly-owned subsidiary Ephrata National Bank (the “Bank”). This Form 10-Q, for the first quarter of 2018, is reporting on the results of operations and financial condition of ENB Financial Corp.

Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2018. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in ENB Financial Corp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company records revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with Accounting Standards Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under Topic 606, the Corporation must identify contracts with customers, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue when the Corporation satisfies a performance obligation. Significant revenue has not been recognized in the current reporting period that results from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods.

The Corporation’s primary sources of revenue are derived from interest and dividends earned on loans, investment securities, and other financial instruments that are not within the scope of Topic 606. The Corporation has evaluated the nature of its contracts with customers and determined that further disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers into more granular categories beyond what is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Income was not necessary. The Corporation generally fully satisfies its performance obligations on its contracts with customers as

services are rendered and the transaction prices are typically fixed; charged either on a periodic basis or based on activity. Because performance obligations are satisfied as services are rendered and the transaction prices are fixed, there is little judgment involved in applying Topic 606 that significantly affects the determination of the amount and timing of revenue from contracts with customers.

Financial Instruments

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This Update applies to all entities that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities and is intended to provide more useful information on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Among other things, this Update (a) requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (b) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; (c) eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities; (d) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (e) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (f) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; and (g) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

ASU 2016-01 was effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2018, and resulted in separate classification of equity securities previously included in available for sale securities on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in the fair value of the equity securities captured in the consolidated statements of income. See Note 3 – Securities for disclosures related to equity securities. Adoption of the standard also resulted in the use of an exit price rather than an entrance price to determine the fair value of loans not measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 5 – Fair Value Presentation for further information regarding the valuation of these loans.

Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20). The amendments in this Update shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Additionally, in the period of adoption, an entity should provide disclosures about a change in accounting principle. Upon adoption on January 1, 2018, the Corporation made a one-time cumulative effect adjustment from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings of $1.7 million. The net effect was a decrease to retained earnings.

Reporting Comprehensive Income

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), to allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Consequently, the amendments eliminate the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and will improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statement users. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments in this Update is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, (1) for public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) for all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this Update should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized. Upon adoption in February 2018, the Corporation made a one-time cumulative effect adjustment from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings of $634,000. The net effect was an increase to retained earnings.

In the debt security portfolio there were 188 positions that were carrying unrealized losses as of March 31, 2018. There were no instruments considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2018.

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. U.S. generally accepted accounting principles provide for the bifurcation of OTTI into two categories: (a) the amount of the total OTTI related to a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security (the credit loss), which is recognized in earnings, and (b) the amount of total OTTI related to all other factors, which is recognized, net of taxes, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

The Corporation grades commercial credits differently than consumer credits. The following tables represent all of the Corporation’s commercial credit exposures by internally assigned grades as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The grading analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations under the loan agreements as scheduled. The Corporation's internal commercial credit risk grading system is based on experiences with similarly graded loans.

The Corporation's internally assigned grades for commercial credits are as follows:

Pass – loans which are protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the underlying collateral.

Special Mention – loans where a potential weakness or risk exists, which could cause a more serious problem if not corrected.

Substandard – loans that have a well-defined weakness based on objective evidence and characterized by the distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Index

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

Doubtful – loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard asset. In addition, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, based on existing circumstances.

Loss – loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible, or of such value that continuance as an asset is not warranted.

For consumer loans, the Corporation evaluates credit quality based on whether the loan is considered performing or non-performing. Non-performing loans consist of those loans greater than 90 days delinquent and nonaccrual loans.

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, all of the Corporation’s commercial loans on nonaccrual status were also considered impaired. Information with respect to impaired loans for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, is as follows:

There were no loan modifications made during the three months ended March 31, 2018 causing a loan to be considered a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). However, there was a loan modification made during the three months ended March 31, 2017, that constituted a TDR. A TDR is a loan where management has granted a concession to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulty. A concession is generally defined as more favorable payment or credit terms granted to a borrower in an effort to improve the likelihood of the lender collecting principal in its entirety. Concessions usually are in the form of interest only for a period of time, or a lower interest rate offered in an effort to enable the borrower to continue to make normally scheduled payments. The loan classified as a TDR during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was an agricultural loan with a principal balance at March 31, 2018, of $227,000. The concession initially granted to the borrower during the first quarter of 2017 was an interest-only period initially running for three months to March 31, 2017. However, on March 31, 2017, that deferral period was extended for an additional three months, causing management to classify the loan as a TDR. The concession period ended June 30, 2017. Subsequent to June 30, 2017, the borrower resumed normal principal and interest payments as of July 2017.

	Commercial Real Estate			Consumer Real Estate		Commercial and Industrial			Consumer			Unallocated		Total
	$			$		$			$			$		$
Allowance for credit losses:

Balance - March 31, 2018		4,047			2,189		1,301			72			474		8,083

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, provision expenses were recorded for the commercial real estate and consumer real estate segments with credit provisions recorded for the commercial and industrial and consumer loan segments. The increase in the allowance for commercial real estate loans was primarily a result of higher levels of charge-offs in the first three months of 2018. The increase in the amount of the allowance for loan losses allocated to the consumer real estate segment was primarily a result of growth in the residential real estate portfolio during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Delinquency rates among the Corporation’s loan pools remain low but have increased to 0.56% of total loans, compared to 0.46% of total loans as of March 31, 2017. Additionally, charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2018, were $352,000 compared to only $11,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. However, classified loans experienced a decrease in the first three months of 2018. The Corporation’s classified loans were $21.5 million as of March 31, 2017, but had declined to $16.1 million as of March 31, 2018. Currently, the agricultural lending sector remains under stress due to weak milk and egg prices impacting farmers. Outside of this, the health of the Corporation’s commercial real estate and commercial and industrial borrowers is generally stable with no material trends related to certain types of industries. Commercial borrowers that have exposure to agriculture are subject to more financial stress in the current environment. Qualitative factors regarding trends in the loan portfolio as well as national and local economic conditions and external factors such as competition, legal and regulatory were increased for several loan pools in the first quarter of 2018 while several factors related to experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other areas declined for the first quarter of 2018. The increases in charge-offs and growth in the loan portfolio caused management to record provision expense of $190,000 through March 31, 2018.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, a credit provision was recorded for the commercial real estate segment with provision expense recorded in all other loan categories. For the entire portfolio, $90,000 of additional provision expense was recorded for the first three months of 2017. Delinquency rates among most loan pools remained very low with the total amount of delinquent loans lower on March 31, 2017 than on December 31, 2016. The Corporation received $20,000 more recoveries than charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2017. These favorable results acted to offset higher levels of classified loans and non-accruals resulting in $90,000 of additional provision being sufficient to cover projected losses inherent in the loan portfolio and still retain a sufficient unallocated portion of the allowance. Changes in qualitative factors were minimal during the first quarter and the provision expense recorded was primarily the result of higher levels of classified loans.

5. Fair Value Presentation

U.S. generally accepted accounting principles establish 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 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 provide the fair market value for assets required to be measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Total securities		5,775		311,128		—		316,903

On March 31, 2018, the Corporation held no securities valued using level III inputs. All of the Corporation’s debt instruments 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 and bank stocks are fair valued utilizing level I inputs because the funds have their own quoted prices in an active market. As of March 31, 2018, the CRA fund investments had a $5,310,000 book and fair market value and the bank stock portfolio had a book value of $430,000, and fair market value of $465,000.

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.

7. 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 consolidated financial statements. These commitments include firm commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit, and open letters of credit. As of March 31, 2018, firm loan commitments were $37.3 million, unused lines of credit were $222.6 million, and open letters of credit were $11.6 million. The total of these commitments was $271.5 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.

9. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. A short-term lease is defined as one in which (a) the lease term is 12 months or less and (b) there is not an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. For short-term leases, lessees may elect to recognize lease payments over the lease term on a straight-line basis. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments should be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Corporation is currently assessing the practical expedients it may elect at adoption, but does not anticipate the amendments will have a significant impact on the financial statements. Based on the Corporation’s preliminary analysis of its current portfolio, the impact to the Corporation’s balance sheet is estimated to result in less than a 1 percent increase in assets and liabilities. The Corporation also anticipates additional disclosures to be provided at adoption.

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, Liabilities – Extinguishments of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20). The standard provides that liabilities related to the sale of prepaid stored-value products within the scope of this Update are financial liabilities. The amendments in the Update provide a narrow-scope exception to the guidance in Subtopic 405-20 to require that breakage for those liabilities be accounted for consistent with the breakage guidance in Topic 606. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Earlier application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. This Update is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. The underlying premise of the Update is that financial assets measured at amortized cost should be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The allowance for credit losses should reflect management’s current estimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. The income statement will be effected for the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. With certain exceptions, transition to the new requirements will be through a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. Among these include recognizing cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment as cash outflows for financing activities; cash proceeds received from the settlement of insurance claims should be classified on the basis of the related insurance coverage; and cash proceeds received from the settlement of bank-owned life insurance policies should be classified as cash inflows from investing activities while the cash payments for premiums on bank-owned policies may be classified as cash outflows for investing activities, operating activities, or a combination of investing and operating activities. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. If it is impracticable to apply the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s statement of cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which requires recognition of current and deferred income taxes resulting from an intra-entity transfer of any asset (excluding inventory) when the transfer occurs. Consequently, the amendments in this Update eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an annual reporting period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. That is, earlier adoption should be in the first interim period if an entity issues interim financial statements. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), which requires that a statement of cash flows explains the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s statement of cash flows.

In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This Update, among others things, clarifies that guarantee fees within the scope of Topic 460, Guarantees, (other than product or service warranties) are not within the scope of Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for ASU 2016-20 are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for the new revenue recognition guidance. For public entities with a calendar year-end, the new guidance is effective in the quarter and year beginning January 1, 2018. For all other entities with a calendar year-end, the new guidance is effective in the year ending December 31, 2019, and interim periods in 2020. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations.

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a “set”) is a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. Public business entities should apply the amendments in this Update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. All other entities should apply the amendments to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the FASB eliminated Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, under the amendments in this Update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting units fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. A public business entity that is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer should adopt the amendments in this Update for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. A public business entity that is not an SEC filer should adopt the amendments in this Update for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. All other entities, including not-for-profit entities, that are adopting the amendments in this Update should do so for their annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20). The amendments in this Update clarify what constitutes a financial asset within the scope of Subtopic 610-20. The amendments also clarify that entities should identify each distinct nonfinancial asset or in substance nonfinancial asset that is promised to a counterparty and to derecognize each asset when the counterparty obtains control. There is also additional guidance provided for partial sales of a nonfinancial asset and when derecognition, and the related gain or loss, should be recognized. The amendments in this Update are effective at the same time as the amendments in Update 2014-09. Therefore, for public entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-06, Plan Accounting: Defined Benefit Pension Plans (Topic 960), Defined Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962), and Health and Welfare Benefit Plans (Topic 965). This Update relates primarily to the reporting by an employee benefit plan for its interest in a master trust, which is a trust for which a regulated financial institution serves as a trustee or custodian and in which assets of more than one plan sponsored by a single employer or by a group of employers under common control are held. For each master trust in which a plan holds an interest, the amendments in this Update require a plan's interest in that master trust and any change in that interest to be presented in separate line items in the statement of net assets available for benefits and in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits, respectively. The amendments in this Update remove the requirement to disclose the percentage interest in the master trust for plans with divided interests and require that all plans disclose the dollar amount of their interest in each of those general types of investments, which supplements the existing requirement to disclose the master trusts balances in each general type of investments. There are also increased disclosure requirements for investments in master trusts. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715). The amendments in this Update require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost as defined in paragraphs 715-30-35-4 and 715-60-35-9 are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. If a separate line item or items are used to present the other components of net benefit cost, that line item or items must be appropriately described. If a separate line item or items are not used, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net benefit cost must be disclosed. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. For other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the income statement and prospectively, on and after the effective date, for the capitalization of the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit in assets. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), which affects any entity that changes the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This Update amends the definition of modification by qualifying that modification accounting does not apply to changes to outstanding share-based payment awards that do not affect the total fair value, vesting requirements, or equity/liability classification of the awards. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-10, Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853), which applies to the accounting by operating entities for service concession arrangements within the scope of Topic 853. The amendments in this Update clarify that the grantor (government), rather than the third-party drivers, is the customer of the operation services in all cases for service concession arrangements within the scope of Topic 853. For an entity that has not adopted Topic 606 before the issuance of this Update, the effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update generally are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)). ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, deferred the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), and Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down-round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down-round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down-round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down-round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down- round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Accounting Standards Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For all other entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in Part I of this Update should be applied either retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down-round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first fiscal year and interim period(s) in which the pending content that links to this paragraph is effective or retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down-round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs 250-10-45-5 through 45-10. The amendments in Part II of this Update do not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 850), the objective of which is to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. In addition, the amendments in this Update make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application and disclosure of the hedge accounting guidance in current general accepted accounting principles. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early application is permitted in any period after issuance. For cash flow and net investment hedges existing at the date of adoption, an entity should apply a cumulative-effect adjustment related to eliminating the separate measurement of ineffectiveness to accumulated other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year that an entity adopts the amendments in this Update. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance is required only prospectively. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to the Staff Announcement at the July 20, 2017 EITF Meeting and Rescission of Prior SEC Staff Announcements and Observer Comments. The SEC Observer said that the SEC staff would not object if entities that are considered public business entities only because their financial statements or financial information is required to be included in another entity’s SEC filing use the effective dates for private companies when they adopt ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and ASC 842, Leases. The Update also supersedes certain SEC paragraphs in the Codification related to previous SEC staff announcements and moves other paragraphs, upon adoption of ASC 606 or ASC 842. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-01, Leases (Topic 842), which provides an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under Topic 842 existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under the current lease guidance in Topic 840. An entity that elects this practical expedient should evaluate new or modified land easements under Topic 842 beginning at the date the entity adopts Topic 842; otherwise, an entity should evaluate all existing or expired land easements in connection with the adoption of the new lease requirements in Topic 842 to assess whether they meet the definition of a lease. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in ASU 2016-02. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-03, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10), to clarify certain aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-01. (1) An entity measuring an equity security using the measurement alternative may change its measurement approach to a fair value method in accordance with Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, through an irrevocable election that would apply to that security and all identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Once an entity makes this election, the entity should measure all future purchases of identical or similar investments of the same issuer using a fair value method in accordance with Topic 820. (2) Adjustments made under the measurement alternative are intended to reflect the fair value of the security as of the date that the observable transaction for a similar security took place. (3) Remeasuring the entire value of forward contracts and purchased options is required when observable transactions occur on the underlying equity securities. (4) When the fair value option is elected for a financial liability, the guidance in paragraph 825-10- 45-5 should be applied, regardless of whether the fair value option was elected under either Subtopic 815-15, Derivatives and Hedging—Embedded Derivatives, or 825-10, Financial Instruments—Overall. (5) Financial liabilities for which the fair value option is elected, the amount of change in fair value that relates to the instrument specific credit risk should first be measured in the currency of denomination when presented separately from the total change in fair value of the financial liability. Then, both components of the change in the fair value of the liability should be remeasured into the functional currency of the reporting entity using end-of-period spot rates. (6) The prospective transition approach for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value in the amendments in Update 2016-01 is meant only for instances in which the measurement alternative is applied. An insurance entity subject to the guidance in Topic 944, Financial Services— Insurance, should apply a prospective transition method when applying the amendments related to equity securities without readily determinable fair values. An insurance entity should apply the selected prospective transition method consistently to the entity’s entire population of equity securities for which the measurement alternative is elected. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2018. Public business entities with fiscal years beginning between December 15, 2017, and June 15, 2018, are not required to adopt these amendments until the interim period beginning after June 15, 2018, and public business entities with fiscal years beginning between June 15, 2018, and December 15, 2018, are not required to adopt these amendments before adopting the amendments in Update 2016-01. For all other entities, the effective date is the same as the effective date in Update 2016-01. All entities may early adopt these amendments for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, as long as they have adopted Update 2016-01. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations.

Results of Operations

Overview

The Corporation recorded net income of $2,821,000 for the first quarter of 2018, a 54.4% increase over the $1,827,000 earned in the first quarter of 2017. The increase in the Corporation’s 2018 earnings was caused primarily by insurance proceeds from a bank owned life insurance (BOLI) policy. The Corporation purchased and is the beneficiary of all BOLI life insurance policies taken out on select officers. Due to the death of a participant during the first quarter of 2018, the Corporation recorded BOLI income of $913,000. This net death benefit caused an increase in the Corporation’s first quarter 2018 earnings. The Corporation also experienced growth in net interest income (NII) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, largely driven by the Federal Reserve rate increases which have positively impacted the yield on earning assets. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, were $0.99 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $0.64 for the same period in 2017.

The Corporation’s NII increased by $470,000, or 6.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase in NII primarily resulted from an increase in interest and fees on loans of $566,000, or 9.7%, partially offset by a nominal decrease in interest on securities and dividend income. The Corporation’s interest expense increased by $72,000, or 10.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily the result of increased costs on borrowings with much smaller increases in deposit interest expense.

The Corporation recorded $190,000 of provision expense in the first quarter of 2018, compared to $90,000 for the first quarter of 2017, causing a $100,000 decrease in income in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. The increase in provision expense was largely driven by higher levels of charged-off loans as well as an increase in impaired loans requiring a specific allocation of $63,000. The gains from the sale of debt securities were $34,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $140,000 for the same period in 2017, representing a decrease of $106,000, or 75.7%. Market interest rates were lower in 2017, making it more conducive to achieving gains from the sale of securities. The gain on the sale of mortgages decreased by $120,000, or 33.8%, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, compared to the prior year’s period. Both mortgage production and margins realized on sold mortgages were higher in the first three months of 2017 compared to 2018. Total operating expenses increased $366,000, or 4.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017.

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 increased for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to higher earnings as a result of the additional BOLI income recorded in the first quarter of 2018.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The results of the Corporation’s operations are 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

Other income

Operating 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. In the first three months of 2018, NII generated 69.6% of the Corporation’s gross revenue stream, which consists of net interest income and non-interest income, compared to 75.1% in the first three months of 2017. The lower NII as a percentage of gross revenue was primarily caused by the BOLI income recorded in the first quarter of 2018 that resulted in much higher non-interest income when compared to the prior year. The overall performance of the Corporation is highly dependent on the changes in net interest income since it comprises such a significant portion of operating income. Without the impact of the BOLI income, the Corporation’s NII would have accounted for 75.9% of the gross revenue stream for the first three months of 2018.

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 an FTE basis. The FTE net interest income shown in both tables below will exceed the NII reported on the consolidated statements of income, which is not shown on an FTE basis. The amount of FTE adjustment totaled $455,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $606,000 for the same period in 2017.

Total interest income		8,524		7,982

Net interest income		7,750		7,280
Tax equivalent adjustment		455		606

Net interest income (fully taxable equivalent)		8,205		7,886

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 earned 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, the shape of the U.S. Treasury curve, and other wholesale funding curves, all affect NII. The Federal Reserve controls the Federal funds rate, which is one of a number of tools available to the Federal Reserve to conduct monetary policy. The Federal funds rate, and guidance on when the rate might be changed, is often the focal point of discussion regarding the direction of interest rates. Until December 16, 2015, the Federal funds rate had not changed since December 16, 2008, a period of seven years. On December 16, 2015, the Federal funds rate was increased 25 basis points to 0.50%, from 0.25%. On December 14, 2016, one year later, the Federal funds rate was increased 25 basis points to 0.75%. During 2017, the Federal funds rate was increased three times so that the rate was 1.50% as of December 31, 2017. In March of 2018, the Federal Reserve again increased the Federal funds rate by 25 basis points so that the rate was 1.75% as of March 31, 2018. Prior to December of 2015, the period of seven years with extremely low and unchanged overnight rates was the lowest and longest in U.S. history. The impact has been a lower net interest margin to the Corporation and generally across the financial industry. The Federal Reserve rate increases resulted in higher short-term U.S. Treasury rates, but the long-term rates initially decreased, resulting in a flattening of the yield curve. Long-term rates like the ten-year U.S. Treasury were 201 basis points under the 4.75% Prime rate as of March 31, 2018. It appears that the general conditions of a flatter yield curve with low long-term U.S. Treasury rates, significantly below the Prime rate, will continue for the remainder of 2018. Management anticipates the next 0.25% Federal Reserve rate increase could occur in the second quarter of 2018. It remains to be seen whether mid and long-term U.S. Treasury rates will also increase to the same degree that the Federal Reserve will move the overnight Federal funds rate. If they do not, the yield curve would further flatten making it more difficult for the Corporation to increase asset yield.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The Prime rate is generally used by commercial banks to extend variable rate loans to business and commercial customers. For many years, the Prime rate has been set at 300 basis points, or 3.00% higher, than the Federal funds rate and typically moves when the Federal funds rate changes. As such, the Prime rate increased from 3.25% prior to December 2015, to 4.75% as of March 31, 2018, following the six Federal Reserve rate moves that began in December 2015. The Corporation’s Prime-based loans, including home equity lines of credit and some variable rate commercial loans reprice a day after the Federal Reserve rate movement.

As a result of the Federal Reserve rate increases, the Corporation’s NII on a tax equivalent basis began to increase in 2017 with the Corporation’s quarterly margin increasing to 3.47% for the fourth quarter of 2017. The margin decreased slightly in the first quarter of 2018 to 3.43% primarily as a result of lower tax-equivalent yields on the Corporation’s municipal securities which were negatively impacted by the lower Corporate tax rate. The Corporation’s NII on a tax-equivalent basis increased for the first three months of 2018 by $319,000, or 4.0%, over the same period in 2017. Management’s asset liability sensitivity measurements continue to show a benefit to both margin and NII given further Federal Reserve rate increases. Actual results over the past two years have confirmed the asset sensitivity of the Corporation’s balance sheet. Management expects that any additional Federal Reserve rate increases in 2018 would further improve both margin and NII, although to a slightly lesser degree because the cost on deposits and borrowings will begin to increase more rapidly.

The extended extremely low Federal funds rate had enabled management to reduce the cost of funds on overnight borrowings and allowed lower interest rates paid on deposits, initially reducing the Corporation’s interest expense. However, in the first quarter of 2018, this trend reversed with slight increases in both deposit and borrowings interest expense as the cost to replace maturing borrowings increased and rates paid on deposits increased slightly. It was only after the third 25-basis point Fed rate increase in March of 2017 that the Corporation raised some deposit rates minimally which resulted in slightly higher interest expense in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the prior year. While the low Prime rate reduced the yield on the Corporation’s loans for many years, the rate increases through March of 2018 did act to boost interest income. With a higher Prime rate and elevated Treasury rates, higher asset yields should be possible throughout the remainder of 2018. The increasing number of Federal Reserve rate moves assists the Corporation in growing NII and margin because of the variable rate portion of the loan portfolio which resets every time the Prime rate changes. The magnitude of increase in NII and NIM may slow down during the remainder of 2018 if deposit rates are increased.

Security yields will generally fluctuate more rapidly than loan yields based on changes to the U.S. Treasury rates and yield curve. With higher Treasury rates in the first three months of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017, security reinvestment has been occurring at slightly higher yields and amortization has slowed resulting in higher yields. However, yields on the Corporation’s municipal bonds have decreased due to the change in the corporate tax rate, making tax-free yields less attractive than they were in prior years. Management has added variable rate securities and has reduced the municipal bond holdings in an effort to improve the rates-up performance of the securities portfolio.

The Corporation’s loan yield has begun to increase as the variable rate portion of the loan portfolio is repricing higher with each Federal Reserve rate movement. The vast majority of the Corporation’s commercial Prime-based loans are priced at the Prime rate, currently at 4.75%. The pricing for the most typical five-year fixed rate commercial loans is currently very similar to the Prime rate. Previously, any increases in variable rate loans acted to bring down overall loan yield. Now with the rates being very similar, it is beneficial to the Corporation to grow the variable rate loans in a period of rising rates. An element of the Corporation’s Prime-based commercial loans is priced above the Prime rate based on the level of credit risk of the borrower. Management does price a portion of consumer variable rate loans above the Prime rate, which also helps to improve loan yield. Both commercial and consumer Prime-based pricing continues to be driven largely by local competition.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Mid-term and long-term interest rates on average were higher in the first quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. The average rate of the 10-year U.S. Treasury was 2.76% in the first three months of 2018 compared to 2.45% in the first three months of 2017, and it stood at 2.74% on March 31, 2018, compared to 2.22% on March 31, 2017. The slope of the yield curve has been compressed throughout 2017 and through the first three months of 2018, with a difference of 99 basis points between the Fed Funds rate of 1.75% and the 10-year U.S. Treasury as of March 31, 2018, compared to 140 basis points as of March 31, 2017. The slope of the yield curve has fluctuated many times in the past two years with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield as high as 2.94% in the first quarter of 2018 and 2.62% in the first quarter of 2017, and as low as 2.44% in 2018, and 2.31% in 2017.

While the Corporation’s overall cost of funds remained low and did not increase throughout 2017, there were slight increases in the first quarter of 2018 due to higher interest expense on both deposits and borrowings, with the vast majority of the increase coming from the borrowing side. Deposit interest rates are still very low and have not been increased significantly since 2017, although savings on longer term time deposits that are maturing are no longer being achieved. It is anticipated that interest rates on interest bearing core deposits will need to be increased during 2018 as the Federal Reserve continues to raise the short-term interest rates. Borrowing costs, and the wholesale borrowing curves that they are based on, generally follow the direction and slope of the U.S. Treasury curve. However, these curves can be quicker to rise and slower to fall as the providers of these funds seek to protect themselves from rate movements. The Corporation refinanced the majority of borrowings at higher rates in 2017 and 2018 as lower-priced borrowings matured with no ability to refinance at lower rates, so the yield on borrowings increased during 2017 and continued to do so moving into 2018.

Management currently anticipates that the overnight interest rate and Prime rate will remain at the current levels until June of 2018 with the possibility of two additional 0.25% Federal Reserve rate increases in the remainder of 2018. It is likely that mid and long-term U.S. Treasury rates will increase slowly throughout the year, being driven higher due to expected additional Federal Reserve rate movements. This would allow management to achieve higher earnings on new higher yielding securities and allow for the ability to price new loans at higher market rates. However, it is also possible that even after a Federal Reserve rate increase, the yield curve could flatten, making it more difficult for management to lend out or reinvest at higher interest rates out further on the yield curve. Additionally, any further Federal Reserve rate increases would have a greater effect on the repricing of the Corporation’s liabilities as the cost of money increases and more marketplace competition returns. Management anticipates that more deposit rate increases will need to be made to remain competitive in the market while maturing borrowings would also reprice to higher rates.

The following table provides an analysis of year-to-date changes in net interest income by distinguishing what changes were a result of average balance increases or decreases and what changes were a result of interest rate increases or decreases.

During the first three months of 2018, the Corporation’s NII on an FTE basis increased by $319,000, a 4.0% increase over the same period in 2017. Total interest income on an FTE basis for the three months ended March 31, 2018, increased $391,000, or 4.6%, from 2017, while interest expense increased $72,000, or 10.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The FTE interest income from the securities portfolio decreased by $316,000, or 12.2%, while loan interest income increased $590,000, or 10.0%. During the first quarter of 2018, additional loan volume caused by loan growth added $325,000 to net interest income, and the higher yields caused a $265,000 increase, resulting in a total increase of $590,000. Lower balances in the securities portfolio caused a decrease of $101,000 in net interest income, while lower yields on securities caused a $215,000 decrease, resulting in a total decrease of $316,000. The Corporation sold a number of municipal bonds at the end of 2017 reducing the balance of the securities portfolio and the change in the corporate tax rate caused a decline in yield on the remaining portfolio of municipal bonds.

The average balance of interest bearing liabilities increased by 1.2% during the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the prior year driven by slight growth in deposit balances. The slightly higher cost on deposit accounts resulted in a slight increase in interest expense although the shift between time deposit balances and demand and savings accounts partially offset this increase. Higher interest rates on all deposit groups except savings deposits caused a $34,000 increase in interest expense while lower balances of higher cost deposits contributed to savings of $22,000 on deposit costs resulting in a total increase of $12,000.

Out of all the Corporation’s deposit types, interest-bearing demand deposits reprice the most rapidly, as nearly all accounts are immediately affected by rate changes. Time deposit balances decreased resulting in a $27,000 reduction to expense, and time deposits repricing to higher interest rates increased interest expense by $9,000, causing a net total reduction of $18,000 in time deposit interest expense. Even with the low rate environment, the Corporation was successful in increasing balances of other deposit types.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The average balance of outstanding borrowings decreased by $1.2 million, or 1.7%, from March 31, 2017, to March 31, 2018. The decrease in total borrowings reduced interest expense by $3,000. The higher market interest rates increased interest expense by $63,000, as long-term borrowings at lower interest rates matured and were replaced with new advances at higher rates. The aggregate of these amounts was an increase in interest expense of $60,000 related to total borrowings.

The following table shows a more detailed analysis of net interest income on an FTE basis 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 interest 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. The NIM is generally the benchmark used by analysts to measure how efficiently a bank generates NII.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The Corporation’s interest income increased primarily due to increased interest income on loans, resulting in a higher NIM of 3.43% for the first quarter of 2018, compared to 3.41% for the first quarter of 2017. The yield earned on assets increased by four basis points for the quarter while the rate paid on liabilities also increased by four basis points for the quarter when comparing both years. This resulted in a static net interest spread, but the effect of non-interest bearing deposits increased by two basis points during the first quarter of 2018 compared to the prior year, resulting in the marginal increase in NIM. Management does anticipate further improvements in NIM during the remainder of 2018 with the possibility of additional Federal Reserve rate increases throughout the remainder of the year. Loan yields were at historically low levels during 2017 due to the extended low-rate environment as well as extremely competitive pricing for the loan opportunities in the market. During the first quarter of 2018, these yields increased slightly. It is expected that loan yields will continue to increase during 2018 as the economy improves and loan demand increases, reducing pricing pressures and intense competition for loans. The increase in the Prime rate has helped to increase loan yields on variable rate consumer and commercial loans. Growth in the loan portfolio coupled with better yields on variable rate loans caused loan interest income to increase. The Corporation’s loan yield increased 20 basis points in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the first quarter of 2017. Loan interest income increased $590,000, or 10.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017.

Loan pricing was challenging in 2017, and continues to be in 2018 as a result of competition resulting in fixed-rate loans being priced at very low levels and variable-rate loans priced at the Prime rate or below. The current Prime rate of 4.75% is generally slightly higher than the typical business or commercial five-year fixed rates being extended. The commercial or business fixed rates do increase with longer fixed terms or lower credit quality. In terms of the variable rate pricing, nearly all variable rate loans offered are Prime-based. Management is able to price loan customers with higher levels of credit risk at Prime plus pricing, such as Prime plus 0.75%, currently 5.50%. However, there are relatively few of these higher rate loans in the commercial and agricultural portfolios due to the strong credit quality of the Corporation’s borrowers. Competition in the immediate market area has been pricing select shorter-term fixed-rate commercial and agricultural lending rates below 4.00% for the strongest loan credits. This current market environment has largely prevented the Corporation from gaining more yield on fixed rate commercial and agricultural loans. 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 refer to Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Tax equivalent yields on the Corporation’s securities decreased by 42 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The Corporation’s securities portfolio consists of nearly all fixed income debt instruments, however, the variable rate percentage of the portfolio was over 5% as of March 31, 2018 and is expected to grow. The Corporation’s taxable securities experienced a 24 basis-point increase in yield for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. Security reinvestment in the first three months of 2018 has been occurring at higher rates and regular amortization has been lower due to the higher interest rate environment. These variables have caused taxable security yields to increase. The yield on tax-exempt securities decreased by 113 basis points for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017, as a result of the Federal tax rate change enacted in December of 2017. Prior to 2018, the Federal tax rate was 34% causing the tax-equivalent yield on municipal bonds to be higher. In 2018, with a Federal tax rate of 21%, this tax-free advantage was significantly diminished causing the lower yields on tax-exempt securities.

Prior to 2018, with short-term rates low and with small rate differences for longer-term deposits, the consumer generally elected to stay short and maintain funds in accessible deposit instruments. During the first three months of 2018, with higher short-term rates but still low longer-term rates, the customer still prefers keeping balances in both non-interest and interest bearing checking products and savings accounts. In addition to the consumer staying liquid with their available funds, there has been a general trend of funds flowing from time deposit accounts into both non-interest checking, NOW and savings accounts. The average balance of the Corporation’s interest bearing liabilities increased during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The average balance of time deposits declined during this same period compared to 2017, but the other areas of NOW, MMDA, and savings grew sufficiently enough to compensate for the decline in time deposits, causing total interest bearing funds to increase. However, with slightly higher rates on NOW, MMDA, and time deposits, the Corporation generated more interest expense.

Interest expense on deposits increased by $12,000, or 2.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. Demand and savings deposits reprice in their entirety whenever the offering rates are changed, therefore management is cautious in terms of increasing portfolio interest rates. Management is expected to take limited action in terms of increasing interest bearing demand and savings account rates in order to protect deposit levels. During the first three months of 2018, the cost of demand and savings deposits increased compared to the prior year. For the first quarter of 2018, the average balances of interest bearing demand deposits increased by $9.9 million, or 4.9%, over the same period in 2017, while the average balance of savings accounts increased by $10.3 million, or 5.7%.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Time deposits reprice over time according to their maturity schedule. This enables management to both reduce and increase rates slowly over time. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, time deposit balances decreased compared to balances at March 31, 2017. The decrease can be attributed to the low rates paid on time deposits, which has caused the differential between time deposit rates and rates on non-maturity deposits to be minimal, as well as more attractive time deposit rates being offered in the local market area. As a result, customers have elected to keep more of their funds in non-maturity deposits and less funds in time deposits. Because time deposits are the most expensive deposit product for the Corporation and the largest dollar expense from a funding standpoint, the reduction in time deposits, along with the increases in interest-bearing checking, savings, and non-interest bearing checking, has allowed the Corporation to achieve a more balanced deposit funding position and maintain a lower cost of funds. The Corporation was able to reduce interest expense on time deposits by $18,000, or 4.9%, for the first quarter of 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. Average balances of time deposits decreased by $11.3 million, or 7.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The average annualized interest rate paid on time deposits increased by two basis points for the three-month period when comparing both years.

The Corporation historically uses both short-term and long-term borrowings to supplement liquidity generated by deposit growth. Average short-term advances of $7,131,000 were utilized in the three months ended March 31, 2018, while average short-term advances of $15,139,000 were utilized in the three months ended March 31, 2017. Management has used long-term borrowings as part of an asset liability strategy to lengthen liabilities rather than as a source of liquidity. Average total borrowings decreased by $1,249,000, or 1.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. Interest expense on borrowed funds was $60,000, or 25.5% higher, for the three-month period when comparing 2018 to 2017.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the net interest spread remained the same at 3.26%, the same as it was for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The effect of non-interest bearing funds increased by two basis points for the three-month period compared to the same period in the prior year. The effect of non-interest bearing funds refers to the benefit gained from deposits on which the Corporation does not pay interest. As rates go higher, the benefit of non-interest bearing deposits increases because there is more difference between non-interest bearing funds and interest bearing liabilities. For example, if an interest checking account with $10,000 earns 1%, the benefit for $10,000 of non-interest bearing deposits is equivalent to $100; but if the interest-checking rate is increased to 1.50%, then the benefit of the non-interest bearing funds is $150. This assumes dollar-for-dollar replacement, which is not realistic, but demonstrates the way the higher 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, refer to Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses (ALLL) 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 ALLL is adequate to cover any losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The Corporation recorded a provision expense of $190,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $90,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The analysis of the ALLL takes into consideration, among other things, the following factors:

levels and trends in delinquencies, nonaccruals, charge-offs and recoveries,

trends within the loan portfolio,

changes in lending policies and procedures,

experience of lending personnel and management oversight,

national and local economic trends,

concentrations of credit,

external factors such as legal and regulatory requirements,

changes in the quality of loan review and board oversight,

changes in the value of underlying collateral.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Corporation recorded provision expense of $190,000 primarily due to higher balances of charged-off loans and a specific allocation of $63,000 related to an impaired loan. Management closely tracks delinquent, non-performing, and classified loans as a percentage of capital and of the loan portfolio.

As of March 31, 2018, total delinquencies represented 0.56% of total loans, compared to 0.46% as of March 31, 2017. These ratios are extremely low compared to local and national peer groups. The vast majority of the Corporation’s loan customers have remained very steadfast in making their loan payments and avoiding delinquency, even during challenging economic conditions. The delinquency ratios speak to the long-term health, conservative nature, and, importantly, the character of the Corporation’s customers and lending practices. Classified loans are primarily determined by loan-to-value and debt-to-income ratios. The prolonged economic downturn, including devaluation of residential and commercial real estate, had stressed these ratios in past periods but more recently, the level of classified loans is down compared to balances in 2017. The delinquency and classified loan information is utilized in the quarterly ALLL calculation, which directly affects the provision expense. A sharp increase or decrease in delinquencies and/or classified loans during the quarter would be cause for management to increase or decrease the provision expense. The level of actual charge-offs relative to the amount of recoveries can also have a significant impact on the provision. Management had charge-offs that exceeded recoveries by $347,000 in the first three months of 2018 due to two large commercial charges-offs.

Generally, management will evaluate and adjust, if necessary, the provision expense each quarter based upon completion of the quarterly ALLL calculation. Future provision amounts will generally depend on the amount of loan growth achieved versus levels of delinquent, non-performing, and classified loans, as well as charge-offs and recoveries.

In addition to the above, provision expense is impacted by three major components that are all included in the quarterly calculation of the ALLL. First, specific allocations are made for any loans where management has determined an exposure that needs to be provided for. These specific allocations are reviewed each quarter to determine if adjustments need to be made. It is common for specific allocations to be reduced as additional principal payments are made, so while some specific allocations are being added, others are being reduced. Second, management provides for estimated losses on pools of similar loans based on historical loss experience. Finally, management utilizes qualitative factors every quarter to adjust historical loss experience to take into consideration the current trends in loan volume, delinquencies, charge-offs, changes in lending practices, and the quality of the Corporation’s underwriting, credit analysis, lending staff, and Board oversight. National and local economic trends and conditions are also helpful to determine the amount of loan loss allowance the Corporation should be carrying on the various types of loans. Management evaluates and adjusts, if necessary, the qualitative factors on a quarterly basis.

In the first three months of 2018, qualitative factors were adjusted based on current information regarding delinquency, economic conditions, and other factors. Changes in qualitative factors were unchanged for one loan pool, while they increased for two pools and declined for six. Adjustments to the qualitative factors were minor in nature with most changes being only five or ten basis points of adjustment, the lowest amount of adjustment that management will make. The two pools with factor increases were agricultural dairy and residential real estate. These increases were due to changes in the trending of those pools including balances, delinquencies, concentrations of credit, and the personnel that handle those loans. The dairy industry continues to be impacted by lower milk prices, which lowers the profit margin for these farmers and has affected delinquencies. Residential real estate balances have grown significantly, especially adjustable rate mortgages, resulting in a higher concentration of residential mortgages.

Management also monitors the allowance as a percentage of total loans. The percentage of the allowance to total loans has decreased since March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2017, but remains higher than the Bank’s national peer group from the Uniform Bank Performance Reports. As of March 31, 2018, the allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.33%, down from 1.38% at December 31, 2017, and 1.34% at March 31, 2017. Management continues to evaluate the allowance for loan losses in relation to the size of the loan portfolio and changes to the segments within the loan portfolio and their associated credit risk. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for future loan losses based on the current portfolio and the current economic environment. More detail is provided under Allowance for Loan Losses in the Financial Condition section that follows.

Other Income

Other income for the first quarter of 2018 was $3,380,000, an increase of $968,000, or 40.1%, compared to the $2,412,000 earned during the first quarter of 2017. The following table details the categories that comprise other income.

Trust and investment services income increased $72,000, or 14.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period last year. This revenue consists of income from traditional trust services and income from alternative investment services provided through a third party. In the first quarter of 2018, traditional trust income increased by $8,000, or 2.4%, while income from alternative investments increased by $62,000, or 47.2%, compared to the first quarter of 2017. Trust income was up as a result of new business, higher fees, and higher trust valuations. Equity markets were up since December 31, 2017, which has increased trust valuations and the fees generated from their fair market values. Investment services income is dependent on new investment activity derived from the period and was up for the three-month period in 2018 compared to 2017. New staffing was added to this area just prior to 2017, which enabled the unit to have more contact with current customers and broaden the customer base. The full complement of personnel did increase the level of business conducted in 2018, thereby increasing the amount of commission-based revenue. The trust and investment services area continues to be an area of strategic focus for the Corporation. Management believes there continues to be great need for retirement, estate, small business succession planning, and personal investment services 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 $36,000, or 12.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. Overdraft service charges are the largest component of this category and comprised approximately 79% of the total deposit service charges for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Total overdraft fees increased by $25,000, or 10.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. Management attributes higher overdraft fee income primarily to the growth in deposit accounts and new customers. No changes to Bank fees or policies have occurred. Most of the other service charge areas showed minimal increases or decreases from the prior year.

Other service charges and fees increased by $63,000, or 22.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The quarterly increase is primarily due to an increase in loan administration fees that were higher by $48,000, or 45.8%, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in the prior year. These fees are higher primarily due to increased commercial loan volume in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the prior year. Account analysis fees increased by $9,000, or 60.6%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in the previous year, primarily as a result of increased focus on cash management customers and assessing proper fees for the services provided. The other service charges and fees area is expected to continue to grow at a faster pace than other elements of the Corporation’s fees but the percentage increase will decline going forward. Various other fee income categories increased or decreased to lesser degrees making up the remainder of the variance compared to the prior year.

Commissions increased by $37,000, or 6.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. This was primarily caused by debit card interchange income, which increased by $30,000, or 6.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The interchange income is a direct result of the volume of debit card transactions processed and this income increases as customer accounts increase or as customers utilize their debit cards to a higher degree.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, $65,000 of gains on securities transactions was recorded compared to $140,000 for the same period in 2017, a $75,000, or 53.6% decrease. Gains or losses on securities transactions fluctuate based on market opportunities to take gains and 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 risk or fair value risk. The gains or losses recorded by the Corporation depend heavily on market pricing and the volume of security sales. Generally, the lower U.S. Treasury yields go, the more management will be motivated to pursue taking gains from the sale of securities. However, these market opportunities are evaluated subject to the Corporation’s other asset liability measurements and goals. The yield curve in the first three months of 2017 provided slightly better opportunities to take gains out of the portfolio than during the first three months of 2018. Management expects the gains or losses on securities transactions will decline throughout the remainder of 2018 as most bonds are being sold for liquidity purposes and to reposition the portfolio for the rates-up environment.

Gains on the sale of mortgages were $235,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, compared to $355,000 for the same period in 2017, a $120,000, or 33.8% decrease. Secondary mortgage financing activity drives the gains on the sale of mortgages, and the activity in the first three months of 2018 was at decreased levels due to the increasing interest rate environment. Management anticipates that gains throughout the remainder of 2018 may continue at a lower level compared to the prior year due to the interest rate environment and lower margins received on the mortgages that are being sold.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, earnings on bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) increased by $926,000, or 535.3%, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase was caused by insurance proceeds due to the death of a participant during the first quarter of 2018 in the amount of $913,000. The amount of BOLI income is generally dependent upon the actual return of the policies, the insurance cost components, and any benefits paid upon death that exceed the policy’s cash surrender value. Increases in cash surrender value are a function of the return of the policy net of all expenses.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2018 were $7,884,000, an increase of $366,000, or 4.9%, compared to the $7,518,000 for the first quarter of 2017. The following table provides details of the Corporation’s operating expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Salaries and employee benefits are the largest category of operating expenses. In general, they comprise 63% of the Corporation’s total operating expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, salaries and benefits increased $241,000, or 5.1%, from the same period in 2017. Salaries increased by $288,000, or 8.5%, and employee benefits decreased by $48,000, or 3.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. Salary and benefit expenses have grown primarily due to additional operational and sales positions to support the growth of the Corporation.

Occupancy expenses consist of the following:

Depreciation of bank buildings

Real estate taxes and property insurance

Building lease expense

Utilities

Building repair and maintenance

Occupancy expenses increased $64,000, or 10.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in the prior year. Snow removal costs increased by $30,000, or 134.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in the prior year and utilities costs increased by $28,000, or 14.9%. Lease expense increased by $10,000, or 24.5%, for the three-month period in 2018 compared to 2017 due to additional back office space rented during 2017. Various other occupancy expense categories increased or decreased by smaller amounts making up the remainder of the quarterly variance.

Professional services expense increased $44,000, or 11.3%, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. These services include accounting and auditing fees, legal fees, and fees for other third-party services. Legal fees increased by $22,000, or 305.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017 primarily related to legal fees associated with the Corporation’s loans such as workouts and restructurings. Trust department processing fees increased by $6,000, or 17.2% due to increased volume and courier service fees and accounting and auditing fees each increased by $5,000 when comparing the first quarter of 2018 to the prior year’s first quarter. Several other professional services expenses increased or decreased slightly making up the remainder of the variance.

Income Taxes

Prior to 2018, the majority of the Corporation’s income was taxed at a corporate rate of 34% for Federal income tax purposes. In December of 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act lowered the corporate tax rate from 34% to 21% effective for 2018 and years going forward. Because of this, the Corporation’s Federal income tax provision for 2018 should decline. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Corporation recorded Federal income tax expense of $235,000, compared to tax expense of $257,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The effective tax rate for the Corporation was 7.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to 12.3% for the same period in 2017. The Corporation’s effective tax rate has historically been maintained at low levels primarily due to a relatively high level of tax-free municipal bonds held in the securities portfolio. The fluctuation of the effective tax rate will occur as a result of total tax-free revenue as a percentage of total revenue. The lower effective tax rate for the year-to-date period in 2018 was primarily caused by the lower Federal corporate tax rate as well as higher pre-tax income that was affected by $913,000 of BOLI death benefit that is tax-free income to the Corporation.

Certain items of income are not subject to Federal income tax, such as tax-exempt interest income on loans and securities, and BOLI income; 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 Federal income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of Income by the income before income taxes for the applicable period.

The Corporation is also subject to Pennsylvania Corporate Net Income Tax; however, the Corporation’s Holding Company has very limited taxable corporate net income activities. The Corporation’s wholly owned subsidiary, Ephrata National Bank, is subject to Pennsylvania Bank Shares Tax. Like Federal Corporate income tax, the Pennsylvania Bank Shares Tax is a significant expense for the Corporation, amounting to $215,000 in the first quarter of 2018 and 2017. The Bank Shares Tax expense appears on the Corporation’s Consolidated Statements of Income, under operating expenses.

Financial Condition

Investment Securities

The Corporation classifies all of its debt securities as available for sale and reports the portfolio at fair value. As of March 31, 2018, the Corporation had $311.1 million of securities available for sale, which accounted for 30.2% of assets, compared to 30.4% as of December 31, 2017, and 30.7% as of March 31, 2017. Based on ending balances, the securities portfolio increased 0.5% from March 31, 2017, and decreased 0.9% from December 31, 2017.

The securities portfolio was showing a net unrealized loss of $8,280,000 as of March 31, 2018, compared to an unrealized loss of $4,842,000 as of December 31, 2017, and an unrealized loss of $6,908,000 as of March 31, 2017. The valuation of the Corporation’s securities portfolio, predominately debt securities, is impacted by both the U.S. Treasury rates and the perceived forward direction of interest rates. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield was 2.40% as of March 31, 2017, 2.40% as of December 31, 2017, and 2.74% as of March 31, 2018. The higher Treasury rates since December 31, 2017 have caused a decrease in market valuation, which has resulted in the larger unrealized loss recorded at March 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017.

The table below summarizes the Corporation’s amortized cost, unrealized gain or loss position, and fair value for each sector of the securities portfolio for the periods ended March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017.

Interest rate changes and the perceived forward direction of interest rates generally have a close relationship to the valuation of the Corporation’s fixed income securities portfolio. There are also a number of other market factors that impact bond prices. It is likely the Federal Reserve will act to increase rates two or three more times during 2018. During 2017, the Federal Reserve increased short-term rates three times, but mid and long-term Treasury rates did not increase at the same speed, so there was a general flattening of the yield curve throughout 2017. The Treasury rates ran up to a 2017 high in March and then slowly retreated until hitting lows in early September and then increasing slightly before December 31, 2017. Since then Treasury rates have slowly increased and are likely to increase throughout the remainder of 2018 with more anticipated Federal Reserve rate increases. Beyond interest rate movements, there are also a number of other factors that influence bond pricing including regulatory changes, financial performance of issuers, changes to credit rating of insurers of bonds, changes in market perception of certain classes of securities, and many more. Management monitors the changes in interest rates and other market influences to assist in management of the securities portfolio.

Any material increase in market interest rates would have a negative impact on the market value of the Corporation’s fixed income debt securities. As of March 31, 2018 approximately 95% of the Corporation’s debt securities were fixed rate securities with the other 5% variable rate. The variable rate instruments generally experience very little impact to valuation based on a change in rates, whereas the impact of an increase in market interest rates will vary on the fixed rate securities according to type of bond, length and structure of each instrument. The Federal Reserve increased the Fed funds rate by 25 basis points in March of 2017, June of 2017, December of 2017, and March of 2018, with the likelihood of additional increases during the remainder of 2018. While management is planning for mid-term and long-term interest rates to increase throughout the remainder of 2018, it is possible they would not increase to the same magnitude that short-term rates will increase resulting in an even flatter yield curve. The municipal bond sector is the largest of the portfolio and, as a result, management will closely monitor the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield due to its impact on these securities. The other sectors of the portfolio have shorter lives and duration and would be more influenced by the 2-year and 5-year U.S. Treasury rates. It is anticipated that the current unrealized losses could grow if market rates do increase during the remainder of the year, either in anticipation of a Federal Reserve rate move, or after each rate increase.

After three consecutive quarters of declines ending on December 31, 2017, the Corporation’s effective duration increased slightly in the first quarter of 2018. Effective duration is a measurement of the length of the securities portfolio with a higher level indicating more length and more exposure to an increase in interest rates. The securities portfolio base case effective duration was 4.1 as of March 31, 2017. Since then it has decreased to 3.3 as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2017, and increased only slightly to 3.5 as of March 31, 2018. Duration is expected to remain stable or decline slightly throughout the remainder of 2018. The Corporation sold a number of longer municipal holdings in the fourth quarter of 2017 resulting in a lower effective duration. It will be more difficult to reduce duration materially throughout the remainder of 2018 as the pass-through structures of MBS and CMO instruments typically lengthen in periods of rising rates as principal payments slow. Management also continues to utilize a large cash position outside of the portfolio, as well as lower duration corporate bonds to offset the duration of the longer municipal bonds.

Management’s actions to maintain reasonable effective duration of the securities portfolio are part of a broader asset liability plan to continually work to mitigate future interest rate risk and fair value risk to the Corporation. Part of that strategy is to retain higher levels of cash and cash equivalents to increase liquidity and provide an immediate hedge against higher interest rates and fair value risk. However, despite taking actions to mitigate the Corporation’s future risk, these risks are inherent to the banking model. Unrealized gains and losses on securities will vary significantly according to market forces. Management’s focus will continue to be on the long-term performance of these securities. While management has and will continue to take gains from the portfolio when opportunities exist, the broader securities strategy remains to buy and hold debt securities until maturity. Because market interest rates were generally rising since March 31, 2017, gains from the sales of securities did decline significantly.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

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 maximum flexibility for management of liquidity and interest rate risk, 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Management has the ability and intent to hold all debt securities until maturity, and does not generally record impairment on bonds that are currently valued below book value. In addition to the fixed-income bonds, the Corporation’s equity holdings consist of a small CRA-qualified mutual fund with a book value of $5.3 million. The CRA fund is a Small Business Association (SBA) variable rate fund with a stable dollar price. The Corporation also has a small portfolio of bank stocks with a book and fair market value of $465,000 as of March 31, 2018. The equity holdings make up 1.8% of the Corporation’s securities available for sale.

All securities, bonds, and equity holdings 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, with the amount of the write down 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:

ALCO positions as to liquidity, credit risk, interest rate risk, and fair value risk

Growth of the loan portfolio

Slope of the U.S. Treasury curve

Relative performance of the various instruments, including spread to U.S. Treasuries

Duration and average length of the portfolio

Volatility of the portfolio

Direction of interest rates

Economic factors impacting debt securities

The investment policy of the Corporation imposes guidelines to ensure diversification within the portfolio. The diversity specifications provide opportunities to shorten or lengthen duration, maximize yield, and mitigate credit risk. The composition of the securities portfolio based on fair market value is shown in the following table.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The largest movements within the securities portfolio were shaped by market factors, such as:

slope of the U.S. Treasury curve and projected forward rates

interest spread versus U.S. Treasury rates on the various securities

pricing of the instruments, including supply and demand for the product

structure of the instruments, including duration and average life

portfolio weightings versus policy guidelines

prepayment speeds on mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations

credit risk of each instrument and risk-based capital considerations

Federal income tax considerations with regard to obligations of states and political subdivisions.

The Corporation’s U.S. government agency sector increased by $1.5 million, or 4.7%, since March 31, 2017, with the weighting increased from 10.2% of the portfolio to 10.7%. In the past, management’s goal was to maintain agency securities at approximately 15% of the securities portfolio. In the current rate environment, management is comfortable maintaining agencies at a level of approximately 10% of the portfolio. This sector is also important in maintaining adequate risk weightings of the portfolio, to ensure sufficient U.S. government securities for pledging purposes, and importantly to ladder out a schedule of agency and corporate maturities over the next 5 years to avoid any concentration of maturities. Next to U.S. Treasuries, U.S. agencies are viewed as the safest instruments and are considered by management as a foundational portion of the portfolio.

The Corporation’s U.S. agency MBS and CMO sectors have increased in total since March 31, 2017, and the weightings have changed with significantly more CMOs and less MBS as of March 31, 2018, compared to March 31, 2017. The Corporation’s CMO portfolio has increased by $16.1 million, or 37.6%, while MBS balances have decreased by $10.3 million, or 17.4%, when comparing March 31, 2018, to balances at March 31, 2017. These two security types both consist of mortgage instruments that pay monthly interest and principal, however the behavior of the two types vary according to the structure of the mortgage pool or CMO instrument. Management desires to maintain a substantial amount of MBS and CMOs in order to assist in adding to and maintaining a stable five-year ladder of cash flows, which is important in providing stable liquidity and interest rate risk positions. Unlike the typical U.S. agency paper, corporate bonds, and obligations of states and political subdivisions, which only pay principal at final maturity, the U.S. agency MBS and CMO securities pay contractual monthly principal and interest, but are also subject to additional prepayment of principal. The combined effect of all of these instruments paying monthly principal and interest provides the Corporation with a significant and reasonably stable cash flow. Cash flows coming off of MBS and CMOs do slow down and speed up as interest rates increase or decrease, which has an impact on the portfolio’s length and yield. As interest rates decline, prepayment of principal on securities increases, the duration of the security shortens, and the yield declines as more amortization is required on premium bonds. When interest rates increase, the opposite of this occurs. Despite the fluctuations that occur in terms of monthly cash flow as a result of changing prepayment speeds, the monthly cash flow generated by U.S. agency MBS and CMO securities is reasonably stable and as a group is significant, and helps to soften or smooth out the Corporation’s total monthly cash flow from all securities.

As of March 31, 2018, the fair value of the Corporation’s corporate bonds increased by $7.3 million, or 13.8%, from balances at March 31, 2017. Like any security, corporate bonds have both positive and negative qualities and management must evaluate these securities on a risk versus reward basis. Corporate bonds add diversity to the portfolio and provide strong yields for short maturities; however, by their very nature, corporate bonds carry a high level of credit risk should the entity experience financial difficulties. Management stands to possibly lose the entire principal amount if the entity that issued the corporate paper fails. As a result of the higher level of credit risk taken by purchasing a corporate bond, management has in place procedures to closely analyze the financial health of the company as well as policy guidelines. The guidelines include both maximum investment by issuer and minimal credit ratings that must be met in order for management to purchase a corporate bond. Financial analysis is conducted prior to every corporate bond purchase with ongoing monitoring performed on all securities held.

Obligations of states and political subdivisions, or municipal bonds, are tax-free securities that generally provide the highest yield in the securities portfolio. They also carry the longest duration on average of any instrument in the securities portfolio. In the prolonged period of historically low interest rates, the municipal bond sector has outperformed all other sectors of the portfolio. Municipal tax-equivalent yields generally start well above other taxable bonds. These instruments also experience significant fair market value gains and losses when interest rates decrease and increase. However, due to the decrease in the Federal tax rate as enacted by the Tax Cuts and Job Act, municipal yields do not outperform the other segments of the securities portfolio to the same degree as years prior to 2018. While the tax-equivalent yields are still good, the benefit of the tax-free income was impacted resulting in the sales of a number of municipal bonds in the fourth quarter of 2017. Due to these sales, the fair market value of municipal holdings has decreased by $13.1million, or 10.6%, from March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018. Municipal bonds represented 34.8% of the securities portfolio as of March 31, 2018, compared to 39.1% as of March 31, 2017. The Corporation’s investment policy limits municipal holdings to 125% of Tier 2 capital. As of March 31, 2018, municipal holdings amounted to 101% of Tier 2 capital.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

By policy, management is to identify and recommend whether to hold or sell securities with credit ratings that have fallen below minimum policy credit ratings required at the time of purchase, or below investment grade. Management monitors the security ratings on a monthly basis and reviews quarterly with the Board of Directors. Management, 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 or below investment grade based on the expectation of recovery of market value or improved performance. At this time management has elected, and the Board has approved, holding all securities that have fallen below initial policy guidelines. As of March 31, 2018, no securities have fallen below investment grade.

As of March 31, 2018, thirty-three of the thirty-five corporate securities held by the Corporation showed an unrealized holding loss. These securities with unrealized holding losses were valued at 97.4% of book value. The Corporation’s investment policy requires that corporate bonds have a minimum credit rating of A3 by Moody’s or A- by S&P or Fitch at the time of purchase, or an average or composite rating of A-. As of March 31, 2018, all but two of the corporate bonds had at least one A3 or A- rating by one of the two predominate credit rating services, Moody’s and S&P. These two corporate bonds were from the same issuer and had a total book value of $3.2 million, and did not have an A3 or A- rating as of March 31, 2018. These bonds were rated Moody’s Baa1 and S&P BBB+, which are two levels above the minimum required to be considered investment grade. Management conducts ongoing monitoring of these bonds and has chosen to continue to hold these bonds with Board approval. In addition, there are fourteen corporate bond instruments that have split ratings with the highest rating within the Corporation’s initial purchase policy guidelines and the lower rating outside of management guidelines, but all are still investment grade. The fourteen bonds have a book value of $23.8 million with a $530,000 unrealized loss, or 2.2% decline, as of March 31, 2018. Management conducts ongoing monitoring of these bonds with the Board approving holding these securities on a quarterly basis. Currently, there are no indications that any of these bonds would discontinue contractual payments.

The Corporation’s investment policy requires that municipal bonds not carrying insurance have a minimum credit rating of A3 by Moody’s or A- by S&P or Fitch at the time of purchase. As of March 31, 2018, no municipal bonds carried a credit rating under these levels.

As a result of the fallout of the financial crisis, the major rating services have tightened their credit underwriting standards and are quicker to downgrade municipalities when financial conditions deteriorate. Additionally, the prolonged weak economy has reduced revenue streams for many 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. As a result of this environment, management utilizes several municipal surveillance reports and engages an independent non-brokerage service third party to perform enhanced municipal credit evaluation. Management will typically sell municipal securities if negative trends in financial performance are found and/or ratings have declined to levels deemed unacceptable. As a result of the above monitoring and actions taken to proactively sell weaker municipal credits, the Corporation’s entire municipal bond portfolio consists of investment grade credits.

The entire securities portfolio is reviewed monthly for credit risk and evaluated quarterly for possible impairment. The Corporation’s municipal and corporate bonds present the largest credit risk and highest likelihood for any possible impairment. Due to the ability for corporate credit situations to change rapidly and ongoing nationwide concerns of pension obligations impacting municipalities, management is closely monitoring all corporate and municipal securities.

(a)	Residential real estate loans do not include mortgage loans serviced for others which totaled $103,458,000 as of March 31, 2018, $98,262,000 as of December 31, 2017, and $73,161,000 as of March 31, 2017.

There was moderate growth in the loan portfolio since March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2017. An increase in consumer real estate loans was the primary reason for the increase in loan balances from both time periods with smaller increases in commercial and industrial loans. Commercial real estate loans saw a decline in balances from March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018, but a slight increase in balances since December 31, 2017. The biggest decline in the commercial real estate sector has been in agricultural mortgages, which declined primarily as a result of increased competitive pressures, including new market entrants, and headwinds in the agricultural marketplace impacting dairy farmers and poultry producers. In the consumer real estate sector, 1-4 family residential mortgages increased due to the expansion of the Corporation’s mortgage division and successful efforts to expand the product line and increase the sales force to capture a greater share of the local mortgage market. Home equity lines of credit have grown in response to the low interest rate environment encouraging customers to utilize variable rate consumer borrowings in conjunction with an attractive six-month introductory rate which the Corporation has offered for all of 2017 and during the first quarter of 2018.

In terms of all loans secured by real estate, the total of all categories of real estate loans comprises 85.0% of total loans as of March 31, 2018. At $261.2 million, commercial real estate is the largest category of the loan portfolio, consisting of 42.9% of total loans. This category includes commercial mortgages, agriculture mortgages, and construction loans. Commercial real estate loans decreased from $264.6 million as of March 31, 2017, to $261.2 million as of March 31, 2018, a $3.4 million, or 1.3% decrease.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The decline in commercial real estate loans has primarily been in those secured by farmland partially offset by an increase in commercial mortgages. Agricultural mortgages decreased $6.8 million, or 4.3% from $158.2 million as of March 31, 2017, to $151.4 million as of March 31, 2018. The decline in agricultural mortgages was caused by a combination of new agricultural lending competition in Lancaster County and weaker milk and egg pricing for farmers. Low dairy, egg, and poultry prices are constraining local farmers from expanding operations. Approximately 45% of the Corporation’s agricultural purpose loans support dairy operations while another 25% are either broiler or egg producers. The pipeline for new agricultural mortgages did increase in the latter part of 2017 and throughout the first quarter of 2018, resulting in a slowing of the decline in agricultural mortgages from December 31, 2017, to March 31, 2018. Management believes the level of agricultural mortgages will slowly increase aided by the Corporation’s renewed focus on the agricultural community and a full staff ready to meet agriculture lending needs but challenged by the declining economic conditions for farmers in the local market area.

Commercial mortgages increased the most within the commercial real estate area with a $4.0 million, or 4.7% increase from balances at March 31, 2017. New loan production in this segment is currently outpacing normal principal payments, paydowns, and payoffs. The commercial real estate market environment is showing slow growth in the Corporation’s market area but more competition is vying for this business. Management expects commercial real estate loans to remain stable as a percentage of the Corporation’s loans as we move throughout 2018.

The Corporation experienced only small declines in commercial construction because a number of construction projects completed and were converted into permanent financing. The Corporation originated just enough new construction contracts to replace those that rolled off. Management was experiencing some demand for smaller residential builds like construction on existing lots but no new large scale projects. Commercial construction loans decreased by $0.7 million, or 3.3%, from March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018.

Consumer real estate loans make up 42.0% of the total loan portfolio with balances of $256.0 million as of March 31, 2018, a marked increase from 39.1% of the portfolio as of March 31, 2017. These loans include 1-4 family residential mortgages, home equity term loans, and home equity lines of credit. Personal residential mortgages account for 72.1% of total residential real estate loans and 30.3% of total loans, up from 70.4% and 27.5% respectively, as of March 31, 2017. Traditional 10 to 20-year personal mortgages originated from and held by the Corporation have consistently been the largest single product of the Corporation’s loan portfolio. During 2017 and through the first three months of 2018, the Corporation experienced significant increases in both portfolio and secondary market production. The growth was driven by a favorable refinancing and new construction housing market with continued historically low mortgage rates. By the second quarter of 2017, the mortgage unit of the Bank was fully staffed and some additional origination lines had been established with other partnering PA banks, resulting in more mortgage production. The Bank’s hiring of several experienced loan originators in early 2017 has resulted in over 50% of mortgage volume coming from external referral sources such as builders or realtors. Management has also benefited from a full line of adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) that were highly sought after by customers. The volume of residential mortgage production since March 31, 2017, led to a 17.2% increase in 1-4 family residential mortgage balances along with a significant shift from fixed rate loans to the ARM’s climbing from 30% of the residential loan portfolio as of March 31, 2017, to 40% at March 31, 2018. This shift in production has decreased the Bank’s interest rate risk profile and this trend is expected to continue throughout the remainder of 2018. Total personal residential mortgage balances increased by $27.0 million, or 17.2%, from March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018, and $7.6 million, or 4.3%, from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018.

The Corporation generally only holds 10 to 20-year fixed rate mortgages, or mortgages with an initial fixed rate period of 10 years or less (adjustable rate mortgages), and will sell any mortgage originated over a 20-year fixed rate term. The majority of the fixed rate mortgages are sold with servicing retained. In the first three months of 2018, purchase money origination constituted 70% of the Corporation’s mortgage originations with construction-only and construction-permanent loans making up 49% of that. The growth of the Corporation’s held-for-investment portfolio continued to be concentrated in its ARM products; ARM balances were $4.9 million, or 7.0% higher compared to December 31, 2017, while the fixed rate balances grew by $700,000, or 1.0%, during the same time period. During the first quarter of 2018, 11% of all ARMs booked were 10/1 ARMs, 70% were 7/1 ARMs, and 19% were 5/1 ARMs. The ARM product is beneficial to the Corporation as it limits the interest rate risk to a much shorter time period. The ARM loans have continued to grow rapidly as a percentage of the portfolio, amounting to over 50% of the total personal mortgages held by the Corporation as of March 31, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, the Corporation had $74.1 million of ARMs held in the portfolio. Based on the rising interest rate environment and mortgage activity to date in 2018, management believes it will be difficult to achieve the 2017 level of mortgage production and gains.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Second mortgages and home equity loans, fixed or variable rate, make up the remainder of the Corporation’s residential real estate loans. The purposes of these loans can vary but for this analysis the loan type and form of lien and collateral govern the placement of these loans under home equity loans. Requests for fixed-rate home equity loans have been very light during this prolonged period of historically low rates, while home equity lines of credit, which float on the Prime rate, have been the preferred home equity financing. The growth of the Corporation’s home equity lines of credit was strong during 2017 and then slowed down in the first three months of 2018 as a result of higher interest rates resulting in fewer new lines as well as less draws on existing lines. The Corporation does offer an attractive introductory rate on home equity lines of credit which is currently set at 2.99%. This introductory rate was 1.99% until February of 2018 when it was increased due to the increase in short-term rates that has happened over the course of the past five Federal Reserve rate increases. After the six-month introductory period, the home equity line reverts to Prime or Prime plus a margin depending on the strength of the borrower. Home equity lines of credit increased from $54.9 million on March 31, 2017, to $60.8 million on March 31, 2018, a $5.9 million, or 10.7% increase.

The Corporation expects slower growth to occur throughout the remainder of 2018 as interest rates continue to rise and consumers turn to fixed rates to fulfill their funding needs. It is expected that when the Federal Reserve acts to increase the overnight rate again, and the Prime rate increases, the reaction will be that floating rate loans will become less attractive to borrowers who will act to protect themselves against further rate increases by converting to a fixed rate loan. Since March 31, 2017, the fixed rate home equity loans have decreased by $0.7 million, or 6.2%, and are expected to increase slightly throughout the remainder of 2018 given the likelihood of more Federal Reserve rate increases. Management anticipates moderate growth in the residential real estate area throughout the remainder of 2018 as longer term rates have remained lower than anticipated and management continues to add resources in an effort to further expand the mortgage department, which remains an area of strategic focus for the Corporation.

Commercial loans not secured by real estate are significantly smaller than the Corporation’s commercial loans secured by real estate portfolio. These commercial and industrial loans, referred to as C&I loans, are generally extended based on the health of the commercial borrower. They include both fixed rate loans and Prime-based variable rate loans. The variable rate loans are generally in the form of a business line of credit. The Corporation’s security position as to these loans can be further strengthened by obtaining the personal guarantees of the owners. This is a preferred approach to commercial accounts as it allows the Corporation to pursue assets of the owner in addition to assets of the commercial entity. Management can also obtain additional collateral by securing the inventory of the business. The portfolio of all types of C&I loans showed an increase of $7.1 million, or 9.1%, from March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, this category of commercial loans was made up of $46.9 million of C&I loans (outside of tax-free and agricultural loans), $20.8 million of tax-free loans, and $18.2 million of agriculture loans. In the case of the Corporation, all of the $20.8 million of tax-free loans are to local municipalities. C&I loans increased by $3.0 million, or 6.9% since March 31, 2017, tax-free loans increased by $6.7 million, or 47.6%, and agriculture loans decreased by $2.6 million, or 12.4%, compared to balances at March 31, 2017. The increase in tax-free loans occurred as a result of scheduled draws on tax-free loans to several municipalities originated in 2016 and 2017.

The consumer loan portfolio increased to $5.1 million at March 31, 2018, from $4.8 million at March 31, 2017. Consumer loans made up 0.8% of total loans on March 31, 2018, and March 31, 2017. The long-term trend over the past decade has seen homeowners turning to the equity in their homes to finance cars and education rather than traditional consumer loans for those expenditures. Slightly higher demand for unsecured credit is just slightly outpacing principal payments on existing loans resulting in the small increase in balances. Management anticipates that the Corporation’s level of consumer loans will likely remain stable as a percentage of the portfolio, as the need for additional unsecured credit is generally offset by those borrowers wishing to reduce debt levels and move away from the higher cost of unsecured financing relative to other forms of real estate secured financing.

The total balance of non-performing assets increased by $574,000, or 40.3%, from March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018, and increased by $922,000, or 85.5%, from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018. The increase from the prior year was primarily due to higher levels of loans past due 90 days or more, and the addition of one agriculture loan restructured in the second quarter of 2017 that is considered a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). The loan is considered a TDR because the borrower was granted a six-month interest-only period on this loan. The increase in loans past due 90 days or more was due to the addition of several residential mortgages and a business mortgage that became over 90 days past due in the first quarter of 2018. Management continues to monitor delinquency trends and the level of non-performing loans closely. At this time, management believes that the potential for material losses related to non-performing loans is increasing with the level of delinquencies slightly higher than those experienced in 2017.

There was no other real estate owned (OREO) as of March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, or March 31, 2017.

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 allowance calculation includes specific provisions for under-performing loans and general allocations to cover anticipated losses on all loan types based on historical losses. The calculation is also influenced by nine qualitative factors that are adjusted on a quarterly basis as needed. 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 five main factors:

Historical loan losses

Qualitative factor adjustments including levels of delinquent and non-performing loans

Growth trends of the loan portfolio

Recovery of loans previously charged off

Provision for loan losses

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Strong credit and collateral policies have been instrumental in producing a favorable history of loan losses for the Corporation. The Allowance for Loan Losses table below shows the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017. 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 three months ended March 31, 2018, were $352,000, compared to $11,000 for the same period in 2017. Management typically charges off unsecured debt over 90 days delinquent with little likelihood of recovery. In the first three months of 2018, the Corporation charged off $224,000 related to a single commercial borrower and $100,000 related to a separate commercial borrower. In the first three months of 2017, only small loans classified as commercial and industrial loans as well as several small consumer loans were charged off. Recoveries exceeded charge-offs in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

The allowance as a percentage of total loans represents the portion of the total loan portfolio for which an allowance has been provided. 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, “special mention” being the first indication of credit concern, and several successive classified ratings indicating further credit declines of “substandard,” “doubtful,” and, ultimately, “loss.”

The Corporation’s level of classified loans on March 31, 2018, was down $5.4 million, or 25.1%, from the balance as of March 31, 2017. The Corporation’s total classified loans based on outstanding balances were $16.1 million as of March 31, 2018, $16.6 million as of December 31, 2017, and $21.5 million as of March 31, 2017. Total classified loans did not materially increase until the first quarter of 2017 when a large business relationship with over $5 million of loan balances was classified as substandard. In addition, a $2 million agricultural relationship was also placed on substandard in March 2017. However, in April of 2017, the Corporation received a $1.7 million payoff on the $2 million substandard agricultural relationship. Classified loans grew further in the second quarter as two agricultural relationships with balances of $3.3 million were classified as substandard, along with two business customers with $2 million of loan balances. During the third quarter of 2017, payoffs were received on two classified loan relationships resulting in a decline in classified loans resulting in the lower levels as of March 31, 2018.

Index

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Having more loans in a classified status could result in a larger allowance as higher amounts of projected historical losses and qualitative factors are attached to these loans. In addition to this impact, management performs a specific allocation test on these classified loans. There was $63,000 of specifically allocated allowance against the classified loans as of March 31, 2018, and no specific allocation as of December 31, 2017, or March 31, 2017. Classified loans could require larger provision amounts due to a higher potential risk of loss, so as the classified loan balances fluctuate, the associated specific allowance applied to them fluctuates, resulting in a lower or higher required allowance.

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 continues to experience low net charge-off percentages due to strong credit practices even though charge-offs in the first quarter of 2018 were higher than 2017. Management continually monitors delinquencies, classified loans, and non-performing loans closely in regard to how they may impact charge-offs in the future. Management is not aware of any other significant charge-offs that will occur in the remainder of 2018, but it is likely that a few smaller balance loans will need to be charged-off. Management practices are in place to reduce the number and severity of losses. In regard to severely delinquent loans, management attempts to improve the Corporation’s collateral or credit position and, in the case of a loan workout, intervene to minimize additional charge-offs.

The allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.33% as of March 31, 2018, 1.38% as of December 31, 2017, and 1.34% as of March 31, 2017. Management anticipates that the allowance percentage will remain fairly stable during the remainder of 2018, as the allowance balance is increased with additional provision expense to account for loan growth throughout the year. It is typical for the allowance for loan losses to contain a small amount of excess reserves. Management desires that the amount of excess reserve in the allowance for loan losses be maintained between 5% and 10%. The excess reserve stood at 5.1% as of March 31, 2018.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, increased by $1.9 million, or 7.9%, to $25.8 million as of March 31, 2018, from $23.9 million as of March 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018, $89,000 was classified as construction in process compared to $389,000 as of March 31, 2017. Fixed assets increased as a result of the Corporation’s twelfth full-service branch office opened in Strasburg, PA in the first quarter of 2018.

Regulatory Stock

The Corporation owns multiple forms of regulatory stock that is required in order to be a member of the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) and members of banks such as the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (ACBB). The Corporation’s $6.2 million of regulatory stock holdings as of March 31, 2018, consisted of $6.0 million of FHLB of Pittsburgh stock, $151,000 of FRB stock, and $37,000 of Atlantic Community Bancshares, Inc. stock, the Bank Holding Company of ACBB. All of these stocks are valued at a stable dollar price, which is the price used to purchase or liquidate shares; therefore, the investment is carried at book value and there is no fair market value adjustment.

The Corporation’s investment in FHLB stock is required for membership in the organization. The amount of stock required is dependent upon the relative size of outstanding FHLB borrowings and mortgage activity. Excess stock is typically repurchased from the Corporation at par if the borrowings decline to a predetermined level. The Corporation’s FHLB stock position was $6.0 million on March 31, 2018, $5.6 million on December 31, 2017, and $5.3 million on March 31, 2017, with no excess capital stock position. Any future stock repurchases would be the result of lower borrowing balances. Stock repurchases by the FHLB occur every quarter.

The FHLB of Pittsburgh has paid a quarterly dividend since the resumption of their dividend in the first quarter of 2012. In 2017, the FHLB dividend yield was 5.00% annualized on activity stock and 2.00% annualized on membership stock. The stock declarations made by FHLB of Pittsburgh in the first quarter of 2018, is at a 6.75% annualized yield on activity stock and 3.50% annualized yield on membership stock. Most of the Corporation’s dividend is based on the activity stock, which is based on the amount of borrowings and mortgage activity with FHLB. Management continues to monitor the financial condition of the FHLB quarterly to assess its ability to continue to regularly repurchase excess capital stock and pay a dividend.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Management believes that the FHLB will continue to be a primary source of wholesale liquidity for both short-term and long-term funding. Management’s strategy in terms of future use of FHLB borrowings is addressed under the Borrowings section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Deposits

The Corporation’s total ending deposits decreased by $10.3 million, or 1.2%, and increased by $20.6 million, or 2.5%, from December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017, respectively. Customer deposits are the Corporation’s primary source of funding for loans and securities. In the past few years, the economic concerns and volatility of the equity markets continued to lead customers to banks for safe places to invest money, despite historically low interest rates. The mix of the Corporation’s deposit categories has changed moderately since March 31, 2017, with the changes being a $18.0 million, or 6.3% increase in non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts, a $1.2 million, or 6.2% increase in interest bearing demand accounts, a $0.8 million, or 1.0% decrease in NOW balances, a $2.7 million, or 2.7% increase in money market balances, a $10.5 million, or 5.6% increase in savings account balances, and a $9.5 million, or 6.2% decrease in time deposit balances.

The growth across most categories of core deposit accounts is a direct result of the opening of new branch offices as well as the expansion of business at existing branch offices. The Corporation has gained many new customers as a result of being a long-standing safe community bank known for offering understandable financial products and services with lower fees. While the prolonged historically low interest rates helped the Corporation in growing core deposits in 2016 and prior years, this has slowed down in the latter part of 2017 and during the first quarter of 2018 due to the regular Federal Reserve rate increases that have given customers more options in the market. While customers still view demand deposit, money market and savings accounts as the safest, most convenient place to maintain funds for maximum flexibility, there are more opportunities to invest in other funds outside of banks that can now compete with slightly higher interest rates. Management believes it will be more of a challenge throughout 2018 to maintain and grow balances in these account types as interest rates continue to rise.

The Deposits by Major Classification table, shown below, provides the balances of each category for March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The Corporation has been a stable presence in the local market area that has experienced several large bank mergers. Three new convenient locations were added since 2016, significantly expanding the Corporation’s footprint, with a presence in three counties with a total of thirteen branch locations. The Corporation has a history of offering very competitive service fees as well as attractive 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 Corporation has maintained an outstanding reputation. Management believes the Corporation’s deposit base has benefited as a result of a growing desire by customers to seek a longstanding, reliable institution as a partner to meet their financial needs.

Time deposits are typically a more rate-sensitive product, making them a source of funding that is prone to balance variations depending on the interest rate environment and how the Corporation’s time deposit rates compare with the local market rates. Time deposits fluctuate as consumers search for the best rates in the market, with less allegiance to any particular financial institution. As of March 31, 2018, time deposit balances, excluding brokered deposits, had decreased $2.4 million, or 1.7%, and $9.5 million, or 6.2%, from December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively. The Corporation has experienced a slow and steady shift in deposit trends over the past five years as customers have moved money from time deposits into core checking and savings accounts. With minimal differences between shorter term CD rates and interest bearing non-maturity deposits, customers are more inclined to accumulate their funds in a liquid account that can be accessed at any time. This has resulted in declining time deposit balances and more significant growth in the core deposit areas. Management anticipates that the recent declines in time deposits will likely continue until interest rates increase and cause more of a separation between longer-term rates and overnight rates.

Time deposits have FDIC insurance coverage insuring no loss of principal up to $250,000 per account, based on certain account structures. As a result of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, the $250,000 FDIC insurance coverage on all deposit accounts was made permanent. This has caused an increase in the percentage of time deposits over $100,000 held by the Corporation. While total time deposits continue to decline in the present environment, the percentage of time deposits over $100,000 compared to total time deposits has increased and is expected to remain at these higher percentages due to the FDIC coverage.

Borrowings

Total borrowings were $74.1 million, $65.9 million, and $73.6 million as of March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017, respectively. Of these amounts, $5.6 million, and $14.8 million reflect short-term funds for March 31, 2018, and March 31, 2017, respectively, with no short-term funds outstanding as of December 31, 2017. 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. When short-term funds are used, they are purchased through correspondent and member bank relationships as overnight borrowings or through the FHLB for terms less than one year.

Total long-term borrowings, borrowings initiated for terms longer than one year, were $68.5 million as of March 31, 2018, $65.9 million as of December 31, 2017, and $58.8 million as of March 31, 2017. The long-term borrowings for the Corporation were made up entirely of FHLB long-term advances at March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017. FHLB advances are used as a secondary source of funding and to mitigate interest rate risk. These long-term funding instruments are typically a more effective funding instrument in terms of selecting the exact amount, rate, and term of funding rather than trying to source the same through deposits. In this manner, management can efficiently meet known liquidity and interest rate risk needs. Over the course of the past few years, the Corporation has minimally changed the ladder of long-term FHLB borrowings, by replacing maturing advances with new long-term advances typically at rate savings. More recently, with interest rates rising, it is becoming increasingly difficult to fund new borrowings at rates lower than the maturing borrowings and most new borrowings are being initiated at higher interest rates. 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 March 31, 2018, the Corporation was significantly under this policy guideline at 7.2% of asset size with $74.1 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 March 31, 2018, the Corporation was significantly under this policy guideline at 76.0% of capital with $74.1 million total borrowings from all sources. The Corporation has maintained FHLB borrowings and total borrowings well within these policy guidelines throughout all of 2017 and through the first three months of 2018.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The Corporation continues to be well under the FHLB maximum borrowing capacity (MBC), which is currently $362.7 million. The Corporation’s two internal policy limits mentioned above are far more restrictive than the FHLB MBC, which is calculated and set quarterly by FHLB.

Stockholders’ Equity

Federal regulatory authorities require banks to meet minimum capital levels. The Corporation, as well as the Bank, as the solely owned subsidiary of the Corporation, maintains capital ratios well above those minimum levels. 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 specific 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 tables reflect the capital ratios for the Corporation and Bank compared to the regulatory capital requirements.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Dividends play a vital role in the management of capital levels of the Corporation. Management seeks a balance between maintaining a sufficient cushion of excess capital above regulatory limits versus the payment of dividends to the shareholders as a direct return of their investment. Due to a constant stream of stable earnings, the payment of a dividend is needed to maintain capital at acceptable levels in order to provide an adequate return of equity to the shareholders.

The Corporation’s dividends per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018, were $0.28, matching the per share dividend in the first three months of 2017. Dividends are paid from current earnings and available retained earnings. The Corporation’s current capital plan calls for management to maintain tier I capital to average assets between 10.0% and 12.0%. The Corporation’s current tier I capital ratio is 10.3%. As a secondary measurement, the capital plan also targets a long-term dividend payout ratio in the range of 35% to 40%. This ratio will vary according to income, but over the long term, the Corporation’s goal is to maintain and target a payout ratio within this range. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the payout ratio was 28.3% due to the higher earnings as a result of BOLI income. Management’s goal is to maintain all regulatory capital ratios at current levels. Future dividend payout ratios are dependent on the future level of earnings and other factors that impact the level of capital.

The amount of unrealized gain or loss on the securities portfolio is reflected, net of tax, as an adjustment to capital, as required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. This is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the capital section of the consolidated 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 on the securities portfolio would directly impact the Corporation’s capital. As of March 31, 2018, the Corporation showed an unrealized loss, net of tax, of $6,541,000, compared to an unrealized loss of $3,195,000 at December 31, 2017, and an unrealized loss of $4,559,000 as of March 31, 2017. These unrealized gains and losses, net of tax are excluded from capital when calculating the tier I capital to average assets numbers above. The amount of unrealized gain or loss on the securities portfolio, shown net of tax, as an adjustment to capital, does not include any actual impairment taken on securities, which is shown as a reduction to income on the Corporation’s Consolidated Statements of Income. No impairment was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2018, or in the same prior year period. The changes in unrealized gains and losses are due to normal changes in market valuations of the Corporation’s securities as a result of interest rate movements.

Regulatory Capital Changes

In July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued final rules to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for community banking organizations began January 1, 2015, while larger institutions (generally those with assets of $250 billion or more) began compliance on January 1, 2014. The final rules call for the following capital requirements:

A minimum ratio of common equity tier I capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%.

A minimum ratio of tier I capital to risk-weighted assets of 6%.

A minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8%.

A minimum leverage ratio of 4%.

In addition, the final rules established a common equity tier I capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets applicable to all banking organizations. If a banking organization fails to hold capital above the minimum capital ratios and the capital conservation buffer, it will be subject to certain restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments. The phase-in period for the capital conservation and countercyclical capital buffers for all banking organizations began on January 1, 2016.

Under the initially proposed rules, accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) would have been included in a banking organization’s common equity tier I capital. The final rule allows community banks to make a one-time election not to include these additional components of AOCI in regulatory capital and instead use the existing treatment under the general risk-based capital rules that excludes most AOCI components from regulatory capital. The opt-out election was made by the Corporation with the filing of the first quarter Call Report as of March 31, 2015.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The final rules permanently grandfather non-qualifying capital instruments (such as trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock) issued before May 19, 2010 for inclusion in the tier I capital of banking organizations with total consolidated assets less than $15 billion as of December 31, 2009, and banking organizations that were mutual holding companies as of May 19, 2010. The Corporation does not have trust preferred securities or cumulative perpetual preferred stock with no plans to add these to the capital structure.

The proposed rules would have also modified the risk-weight framework applicable to residential mortgage exposures to require banking organizations to divide residential mortgage exposures into two categories in order to determine the applicable risk weight. In response to commenter concerns about the burden of calculating the risk weights and the potential negative effect on credit availability, the final rules do not adopt the proposed risk weights but retain the current risk weights for mortgage exposures under the general risk-based capital rules.

Consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act, the new rules replace the ratings-based approach to securitization exposures, which was based on external credit ratings, with the simplified supervisory formula approach in order to determine the appropriate risk weights for these exposures. Alternatively, banking organizations may use the existing gross-up approach to assign securitization exposures to a risk weight category or choose to assign such exposures a 1,250 percent risk weight. The Corporation does not securitize assets and has no plans to do so.

Under the new rules, mortgage servicing assets (MSAs) and certain deferred tax assets (DTAs) are subject to stricter limitations than those applicable under the previous general risk-based capital rule. The new rules also increased the risk weights for past-due loans, certain commercial real estate loans, and some equity exposures, and made selected other changes in risk weights and credit conversion factors.

Management has evaluated the impact of the above rules on levels of the Corporation’s capital. The final rulings were more favorable in terms of the items that would have a more significant impact to the Corporation and community banks in general. Specifically, the AOCI final ruling, which would have had the greatest negative impact to capital, provided the Corporation with an opt-out provision. The final ruling on the risk weightings of mortgages was favorable and did not have a material negative impact. The rulings as to trust preferred securities, preferred stock, and securitization of assets are not applicable to the Corporation, and presently the revised treatment of MSAs is not material to capital. The remaining changes to risk weightings on several items mentioned above such as past-due loans and certain commercial real estate loans do not have a material impact to capital presently, but could change as these levels change.

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 March 31, 2018.

Significant Legislation

Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act

In 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank) was signed into law. Dodd-Frank is intended to affect a fundamental restructuring of federal banking regulation. Among other things, Dodd-Frank creates a new Financial Stability Oversight Council to identify systemic risks in the financial system and gives federal regulators new authority to take control of and liquidate financial firms. Dodd-Frank additionally creates a new independent federal regulator to administer federal consumer protection laws. Dodd-Frank is expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s business operations as its provisions take effect. It is difficult to predict at this time what specific cumulative impact Dodd-Frank and the yet-to-be-written implementing rules and regulations will have on community banks. However, it is expected that, at a minimum, they will increase the Corporation’s operating and compliance costs and could increase interest expense. Among the provisions that have already or are likely to affect the Corporation are the following:

Holding Company Capital Requirements

Dodd-Frank requires the Federal Reserve to apply consolidated capital requirements to bank holding companies that are no less stringent than those currently applied to depository institutions. Under these standards, trust preferred securities will be excluded from tier I capital unless such securities were issued prior to May 19, 2010, by a bank holding company with less than $15 billion in assets. Dodd-Frank additionally requires that bank regulators issue countercyclical capital requirements so that the required amount of capital increases in times of economic expansion and decreases in times of economic contraction, are consistent with safety and soundness.

Deposit Insurance

Dodd-Frank permanently increased the maximum deposit insurance amount for banks, savings institutions, and credit unions to $250,000 per depositor. Additionally, on February 7, 2011, the Board of Directors of the FDIC approved a final rule based on the Dodd-Frank Act that revises the assessment base from one based on domestic deposits to one based on assets. This change, which was effective in April 2011, saved the Corporation a significant amount of FDIC insurance premiums from the significantly higher FDIC insurance premiums placed into effect after the financial crisis.

Corporate Governance

Dodd-Frank requires publicly traded companies to give stockholders a non-binding vote on executive compensation at least every three years, a non-binding vote regarding the frequency of the vote on executive compensation at least every six years, and a non-binding vote on “golden parachute” payments in connection with approvals of mergers and acquisitions unless previously voted on by shareholders. The SEC has finalized the rules implementing these requirements which took effect on January 21, 2011. The Corporation was exempt from these requirements until January 21, 2013, due to its status as a smaller reporting company. Additionally, Dodd-Frank directs the federal banking regulators to promulgate rules prohibiting excessive compensation paid to executives of depository institutions and their holding companies with assets in excess of $1.0 billion, regardless of whether the company is publicly traded. Dodd-Frank also gives the SEC authority to prohibit broker discretionary voting on elections of directors and executive compensation matters.

Limits on Interchange Fees

Dodd-Frank amended the Electronic Fund Transfer Act to, among other things, give the Federal Reserve the authority to establish rules regarding interchange fees charged for electronic debit transactions by payment card issuers having assets over $10 billion and to enforce a new statutory requirement that such fees be reasonable and proportional to the actual cost of a transaction to the issuer.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

Dodd-Frank created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), which is granted broad rulemaking, supervisory and enforcement powers under various federal consumer financial protection laws, including the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Truth in Lending Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Fair Debt Collection Act, the Consumer Financial Privacy Provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, and certain other statutes. The CFPB has examination and primary enforcement authority with respect to depository institutions with $10 billion or more in assets. Smaller institutions will be subject to rules promulgated by the CFPB but will continue to be examined and supervised by federal banking regulators for consumer compliance purposes. The CFPB will have authority to prevent unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices in connection with the offering of consumer financial products. Dodd-Frank authorizes the CFPB to establish certain minimum standards for the origination of residential mortgages including a determination of the borrower’s ability to repay. In addition, Dodd-Frank will allow borrowers to raise certain defenses to foreclosure if they receive any loan other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined by the CFPB. Dodd-Frank permits states to adopt consumer protection laws and standards that are more stringent than those adopted at the federal level and, in certain circumstances, permits state attorneys general to enforce compliance with both the state and federal laws and regulations.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Prohibition Against Charter Conversions of Troubled Institutions

Dodd-Frank prohibits a depository institution from converting from a state to federal charter or vice versa while it is the subject of a cease and desist order or other formal enforcement action or a memorandum of understanding with respect to a significant supervisory matter unless the appropriate federal banking agency gives notice of the conversion to the federal or state authority that issued the enforcement action and that agency does not object within 30 days. The notice must include a plan to address the significant supervisory matter. The converting institution must also file a copy of the conversion application with its current federal regulator which must notify the resulting federal regulator of any ongoing supervisory or investigative proceedings that are likely to result in an enforcement action and provide access to all supervisory and investigative information relating thereto.

Interstate Branching

Dodd-Frank authorizes national and state banks to establish branches in other states to the same extent as a bank chartered by that state would be permitted. Previously, banks could only establish branches in other states if the host state expressly permitted out-of-state banks to establish branches in that state. Accordingly, banks will be able to enter new markets more freely.

Limits on Interstate Acquisitions and Mergers

Dodd-Frank precludes a bank holding company from engaging in an interstate acquisition – the acquisition of a bank outside its home state – unless the bank holding company is both well capitalized and well managed. Furthermore, a bank may not engage in an interstate merger with another bank headquartered in another state unless the surviving institution will be well capitalized and well managed. The previous standard in both cases was adequately capitalized and adequately managed.

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 related to financial performance.

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

Brokered deposits

Current earnings

As noted in the discussion on deposits, customers have historically provided the Corporation with 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 $32 million. This does not include amounts available from member banks such as the Federal Reserve Discount Window or the FHLB of Pittsburgh.

Management uses a cumulative maturity gap analysis to measure the amount of assets maturing within various periods versus liabilities maturing in those same periods. A gap ratio of 100% represents an equal amount of assets and liabilities maturing in the same stated period. Management monitors six-month, one-year, three-year, and five-year cumulative gaps to assist in determining liquidity risk. The six-month and one-year gap ratios were within guidelines at March 31, 2018, and the three and five-year gap ratios were higher than corporate policy guidelines due primarily to higher cash levels and faster loan prepayment speeds resulting in more assets maturing within the stated timeframes. The three-year ratio was 128.9%, and five-year was 139.5%, compared to upper policy guidelines of 125% and 115%, respectively. All of the gap ratios are lower than the ratios as of December 31, 2017. Given the fact that we are already in a rising interest rate cycle with the likelihood of higher rates in both the near and long term forecasts, the elevated gap ratios would be beneficial to the Corporation. Management believes the current gap ratios are appropriate and will continue to monitor all gap ratios to ensure proper positioning for future interest rate cycles.

Through the end of 2017, management was maintaining higher levels of cash and cash equivalents to assist in offsetting the Corporation’s relatively long securities portfolio. This higher cash helped to increase the gap ratios. However, with loans growing and deposits in their normal seasonal decline, cash and cash equivalents declined during the first quarter. While deposits have historically declined in the first quarter of every year, this year the decline has lasted longer than in prior years. Management believes that more options are available to deposit customers after six Federal Reserve rate increases and it is likely the seasonal return of deposits will not be as large in 2018. Management desires to control the cost of funds and improve the loan to deposit ratio and does have a large securities portfolio to draw liquidity from in the event deposit growth does not return. In an effort to increase current income, management also deployed some cash into investments as taxable securities yields were more attractive due to the increases in U.S. Treasury rates. This also contributed to bringing cash levels down. Total cash and cash equivalents were $37.7 million as of March 31, 2018, compared to $53.1 million as of December 31, 2017, and $59.3 million as of March 31, 2017. With gap ratios that are already sufficiently high, management can put more of the available cash to work earning higher returns.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The securities duration and price volatility has declined since the first quarter of 2017 up through December 31, 2017, aided by sales of longer duration municipal securities and natural aging of the portfolio. However, in the first quarter of 2018, the duration and price volatility increased due to a sharper increase in the short end of the yield curve with moderate increases in U.S. Treasury rates. This caused the prepayments on MBS and CMOs to slow making the instruments longer. Therefore, the rate environment caused the portfolio to get longer. In the fourth quarter of 2017, management began selling longer duration municipal bonds, while purchasing shorter duration taxable securities including some floating rate instruments to better position the Corporation for higher rates. This strategy was also motivated by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which cut the corporate tax rate, causing the tax equivalent rate on municipal securities to decline, making these securities less attractive. Longer term municipal securities were already more exposed to sharp increases in interest rates. Without the higher tax-equivalent returns of the past, management desired to reduce the allocation of municipal bonds as a percentage of the portfolio. It is anticipated that longer duration tax-free municipal securities will be sold in the second quarter of 2018, to fund loan growth, gain liquidity, and reduce securities duration and price volatility.

It is likely that short term rates will increase further during the remainder of 2018, so management’s current position is to maintain high maturity gap percentages in preparation for higher rates, with a goal of reducing the 3 year and 5 year gap ratios once several additional Federal Reserve rate increases occur. Ideally, management would like to have all gap ratios back within guidelines when the approximate midpoint of the rates up cycle is reached. While higher gap ratios help the Corporation when interest rates do rise, the risk in maintaining high gap percentages is that, should interest rates not rise, management will have excess liquidity at lower short term rates. This is referred to as opportunity risk, whereby lower levels of income are being achieved than desired. Carrying high gap ratios in the current environment could also bring on an increased level of repricing risk should interest rates decrease, which could negatively impact the Corporation’s interest income and margin.

The risk of liabilities repricing at higher interest rates is increasing in the present environment as the Corporation has begun to increase some deposit rates minimally. However, a large portion of the Corporation’s deposits are core deposits with little repricing expected to occur in the near future. The remainder of the Corporation’s maturing liabilities made up of time deposits and borrowings are generally repricing to slightly higher interest rates. The Corporation’s average cost of funds was 35 basis points as of March 31,2018 which is very low from an historic perspective. However, this cost of funds will likely increase slightly throughout the remainder of 2018. The average cost of funds includes the benefit of non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts. The Corporation’s cost of funds was 32 basis points as of December 31, 2017, and 35 basis points as of March 31, 2018. The cost of funds savings slowed during 2017, with the low of 31 basis points reached in March 2017. Since then the cost of funds has increased 4 basis points to 35 basis points. Given a higher level of liabilities repricing now management would expect the cost of funds to increase at a slightly faster pace going forward.

Deposits have not been very rate sensitive for a number of years as a result of the limited desirable rates available to the deposit customer. However, as market interest rates continue to rise in early 2018, customer behavior patterns appear to be changing and deposits will likely be more rate sensitive, with a portion potentially leaving the Corporation. The Corporation had experienced a steady growth in both non-interest bearing and interest bearing funds during this last prolonged and historically low interest rate cycle, but in 2018 the historical trend of deposits coming back by March 31, 2018 did not occur. It remains to be seen whether it will take longer for deposits to return this year, or a portion of deposits which would normally come back, will not this year due to customers directing these funds elsewhere.

The performance of the equity markets also has a bearing on how much of the current deposits will remain at the Corporation. It is management’s observation that since the financial crisis, an element of the Corporation’s deposit customers has been reluctant to redeploy funds presently at banks back into the equity market. Investors have grown weary of the volatility of the equity markets. Negative events, primarily overseas, have caused multiple cycles of sharp equity declines followed by recoveries. With equity markets performing very well in 2017 and now stabilized after large expected correction, there has been a resurgence of customers pulling funds from deposit accounts to reinvest in the equity markets. This trend could cause deposit growth to decline throughout the remainder of 2018.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The Corporation’s net interest margin is down slightly from levels in the previous quarter, primarily as a result of the lower corporate tax rate causing a decline in the tax-equivalent yield on the Corporation’s tax-free municipal bond portfolio. Management’s future asset liability decisions will be dependent upon improvements in asset yield as well as the expected timing of further short-term rate increases. Management expects that the gap ratios will remain within or above the established guidelines throughout the remainder of 2018.

It is important to stress that the gap ratios are a static measurement of the Corporation’s asset liability position. It is only one of many asset liability analysis tools management utilizes to measure, monitor, and manage both liquidity and interest rate risk. The deficiencies with the gap analysis are that it makes no provision for changes to the balance sheet out into the future and would not factor in changes that management would very likely make to mitigate future interest rate risk.

In addition to the cumulative maturity gap analysis discussed above, management utilizes a number of liquidity measurements that management believes has advantages over and gives better clarity to the Corporation’s present and projected liquidity than the static gap analysis offers.

The Corporation analyzes the following additional liquidity measurements in an effort to monitor and mitigate liquidity risk:

Core Deposit Ratio – Core deposits as a percentage of assets

Funding Concentration Analysis – Alternative funding sources outside of core deposits as a percentage of assets

Short-term Funds Availability – Readily available short-term funds as a percentage of assets

Securities Portfolio Liquidity – Cash flows maturing in one year or less as a percentage of assets and securities

Readily Available Unencumbered Securities and Cash – Unencumbered securities as a percentage of the securities portfolio and as a percentage of total assets

Borrowing Limits – Internal borrowing limits in terms of both FHLB and total borrowings

Three, Six, and Twelve-month Projected Sources and Uses of Funds – Projection of future liquidity positions

These measurements are designed to prevent undue reliance on outside sources of funding and to ensure a steady stream of liquidity is available should events occur that would cause a sudden decrease in deposits or large increase in loans or both, which would in turn draw significantly from the Corporation’s available liquidity sources. As of March 31, 2018, the Corporation was within guidelines for all of the above measurements except the securities portfolio liquidity as a percentage of the portfolio and as a percentage of total assets. The policy calls for the Corporation to maintain securities portfolio cash flows maturing in one year or less between 10% and 20% of the total portfolio and between 4% and 8% of total assets and as of March 31, 2018, these cash flows represented 7.1% of the portfolio, and 2.2% of total assets, under the lower guidelines. When factoring in available overnight cash, the Corporation’s securities portfolio liquidity represented 14.8% of the portfolio, slightly under the policy guideline of 15% - 25%, and 4.6% of total assets, also below the policy guideline of 6% - 10%.

It is important for the Corporation to prepare for a rates-up environment and having more liquidity is advantageous as funds can be reinvested in higher yielding assets faster when sufficient liquidity exists. Management carried an average of approximately $40 million of cash and cash equivalents on a daily basis throughout the first three months of 2018, with an ending balance of $37.7 million on March 31, 2018, and expects this level will trend lower in the second quarter of 2018. All liquidity measurements are tracked and reported quarterly by management to both observe trends and ensure the measurements stay within desired ranges. Management is confident that a sufficient amount of internal and external liquidity exists to provide for significant unanticipated liquidity needs.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is measured using two analytical tools:

Changes in net interest income

Changes in net portfolio value

Index

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

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 scenarios. The scenarios consist of a projection of net interest income if rates remain flat, increase 100, 200, or 300 basis points, or decrease 50, 100, or 150 basis points. Rates-down scenarios are unlikely at this point so management is more focused on the rates-up scenarios. The results obtained through the use of forecasting models are based on a variety of factors. Both the net interest 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:

Projected forward interest rates

Slope of the U.S. Treasury curve

Spreads available on securities over the U.S. Treasury curve

Prepayment speeds on loans held and mortgage-backed securities

Anticipated calls on securities with call options

Deposit and loan balance fluctuations

Competitive pressures affecting loan and deposit rates

Economic conditions

Consumer reaction to interest rate changes

For the interest rate sensitivity analysis and net portfolio value analysis discussed below, results are based on a static balance sheet reflecting no projected growth from balances as of March 31, 2018. While it is unlikely that the balance sheet will not grow at all, management considers a static analysis to be the most conservative and most accurate means to evaluate fair value and future interest rate risk. The static balance sheet approach is used to reduce the number of variables in calculating the model’s accuracy in predicting future net interest income. It is appropriate to pull out various balance sheet growth scenarios which could be utilized to compensate for a declining margin. By testing the model using a base model assuming no growth, this variable is eliminated and management can focus on predicted net interest income based on the current existing balance sheet. Management does run additional scenarios with expected growth rates through the asset liability model to most accurately predict future financial performance. This is done separately and apart from the static balance sheet approach discussed above to test fair value and future interest rate risk.

As a result of the many assumptions, this information should not be relied upon to predict future results. Additionally, both of the analyses discussed below do not consider any action that management could take to minimize or offset the negative effect of changes in interest rates. These tools are used to assist management in identifying possible areas of risk in order to address them before a greater risk is posed. Personnel perform an in-depth annual validation and a quarterly review of the settings and assumptions used in the model to ensure reliability of the forecast results. In addition to the annual validation review, management also engages a third party every three years to obtain a complete external review of the model. That review was completed in the third quarter of 2017. The purpose was to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the model input, assumptions, and output and this study concluded that the model is managed appropriately and generating acceptable results. Back testing of the model to actual results is performed quarterly to ensure the validity of the assumptions in the model. The internal and external validations as well as the 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’s interest rate sensitivity analysis indicates that if interest rates were to go up immediately, the Corporation would realize more net interest income. This is due to the ability of the Corporation to immediately achieve higher interest earnings on interest-earning assets while having the ability to limit the amount of increase in interest-bearing liabilities based on the timing of deposit rate changes. This results in an increase in net interest income in the up-rate scenarios, but a decline in net interest income in the down-rate scenarios.

The first quarter 2018 analysis projects net interest income expected in the seven rate scenarios over a one-year time horizon. As of March 31, 2018, the Corporation was well within guidelines for the maximum amount of net interest income change in all rate scenarios. All up-rate scenarios show a positive impact to net interest income although significant improvements are not reflected until rates increase 200 or 300 basis points. The increase in net interest income in the up-rate scenarios is largely due to the increase in variable rate loans that has occurred during the past several years and the higher cash balances held on the Corporation’s balance sheet. On the liability side, when interest rates do increase, it is typical for management to react more slowly in increasing deposit rates. Loans that are Prime-based will increase by the full amount of the market rate movement while deposit rates will only increase at a fraction of the market rate increase. Additionally, deposit rates may level off more when market rates increase by 200 or 300 basis points where variable loan rates will still increase by the same amount as the Prime rate. The increases in net interest income in the up-rate scenarios are very similar to the increases reflected at December 31, 2017. It is unlikely that interest rates will go down, but in the event that they would go lower, the Corporation would have exposure to all maturing fixed-rate loans and securities, which would reprice lower while most of the Corporation’s interest-bearing deposits could not be repriced any lower. This would result in a decline in net interest income in any down-rate scenario. However, even in the highly unlikely down-rate scenarios, the Corporation’s exposure to declining net interest income is still within policy guidelines.

ENB FINANCIAL CORP

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Management’s primary focus remains on the most likely scenario of higher interest rates. For the rates-up 100 basis point scenario, net interest income increases by 2.1% compared to the rates unchanged scenario. In the remaining rates-up scenarios, the net interest income increases more substantially reflecting the sizable amount of the Corporation’s interest-earning assets that reprice immediately by the full amount of the Fed increase versus the limited amount of deposit increases that management would approve on the Corporation’s interest-bearing deposits. The higher interest rates go, the greater the likelihood that the proportionality of the Corporation’s deposit rate changes decreases as a percentage of the Federal Reserve’s action. For the rates-up 200 and 300 basis point scenarios, net interest income increases by 6.0% and 11.8%, respectively, compared to the rates unchanged scenario. Management’s maximum permitted net interest income declines by policy are -5%, -10%, and -15%, for the rates up 100, 200, and 300 basis point scenarios, respectively.

The positive impact of significantly higher rates is primarily due to the favorable impact of all of the Corporation’s variable rate loans repricing by the full amount of the Federal rate change, assisted by the Corporation’s relatively high interest earning cash balances and that component of the loans and securities portfolios that reprice in less than one year. This more than offsets the increase in interest expense caused by repricing deposits and borrowings, where they are only repricing by a fraction of the rate change. The more aggressive rates-up scenarios also benefit from known historical experience of deposit rate increases lagging and a slowing in the pace of the actual rate increase as interest rates continue to rise. This allows management the ability to benefit from higher rates by controlling the amount of the increase on large amounts of liabilities that are repricing. Management does not expect the Corporation’s exposure to interest rate changes to increase or change significantly during the remainder of 2018.

The assumptions and analysis of interest rate risk are based on historical experience during varied economic cycles. Management believes these assumptions to be appropriate; however, actual results could vary significantly. Management uses this analysis to identify trends in interest rate sensitivity and determine if action is necessary to mitigate asset liability risk.

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 in value that would occur on market sensitive instruments given an interest rate increase or decrease in the same seven scenarios mentioned above. As of March 31, 2018, the Corporation was within guidelines for all up-rate scenarios and for the rates down 50 basis point scenario but was outside of guidelines for the rates down 100 and rates down 150 scenarios. The trend over the past year has been lessening risk in the up-rate scenarios with increasing cash balances and core deposit balances with the current quarter showing a slightly smaller benefit in all up-rate scenarios than the quarter ended December 31, 2017. The strong GAP ratios played a large role in improving the Corporation’s net portfolio value profile. The non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts and low-interest bearing checking, NOW, and money market accounts provide more benefit to the Corporation when interest rates are higher and the difference between the overnight funding costs compared to the average interest bearing core deposit rates are greater. As interest rates increase, the discount rate used to value the Corporation’s interest bearing accounts increases, causing a lower net present value for these interest-bearing deposits. This improves the modeling of the Corporation’s fair value risk as the liability amounts decrease causing a higher net portfolio value of the Corporation’s balance sheet.

The results as of March 31, 2018, indicate that the Corporation’s net portfolio value would experience valuation gains of 8.3%, 8.7%, and 4.3% in the rates-up 100, 200, and 300 basis point scenarios. Management’s maximum permitted declines in net portfolio value by policy are -5% for rates-up 100 basis points, graduating up to -15% for rates-up 300 basis points. A valuation loss would indicate that the value of the Corporation’s assets is declining at a faster pace than the decrease in the value of the Corporation’s liabilities. While the down-rate scenarios that are modeled are unlikely, the analysis does show a valuation loss in the down 50, 100, and 150 basis point scenarios. The exposure to valuation changes could change going forward if the behavior of the Corporation’s deposits changes due to higher interest rates. Based on five past decay rate studies on the Corporation’s core deposits, management did not expect a material decline in core deposit accounts, including the non-interest bearing accounts, as short term interest rates continue to increase. However, in early 2018 the typical seasonal decline in deposits is more pronounced than in years past and the decline is lasting longer, and the majority of the deposit decline is in non-interest bearing funds. So it remains to be seen whether in 2018 the seasonal decline in deposits will reverse as it typically does. Up to this point, the Corporation’s core deposits have been stable through a number of rate cycles.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The weakness with the net portfolio value 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. However, the net portfolio value analysis is a more important tool to measure the impact of interest rate changes to capital. In the current regulatory climate, the focus is on ensuring adequate asset liability modeling is being done to project the impact of very large interest rate increases on capital. The asset liability modeling currently in place measures the impact of such a rate change on the valuation of the Corporation’s loans, securities, deposits, and borrowings, and the resulting impact to capital. Management continues to analyze additional scenario testing to model “worst case” scenarios to adequately plan for the possible severe impact of such events.
