NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Principles of Consolidation:

Farmers National Banc Corp. (“Company”) is a Financial Holding Company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended.  The Company provides full banking services through its nationally chartered subsidiary, The Farmers National Bank of Canfield (“Bank”).  The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of the Bank’s subsidiaries; Farmers National Insurance, LLC (“Insurance”) and Farmers of Canfield Investment Co. (“Investments”).  The Company provides trust and retirement consulting services through its subsidiary, Farmers Trust Company (“Trust”), and insurance services through the Bank’s subsidiary, Insurance.  Farmers National Captive, Inc. (“Captive”) is a wholly-owned insurance subsidiary of the Company that provides property and casualty insurance coverage to the Company and its subsidiaries.  The Captive pools resources with eleven other similar insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among themselves and to provide insurance where not currently available or economically feasible in today’s insurance market place.  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and its subsidiaries, along with the Trust and Captive.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Basis of Presentation:

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.  The interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.  The results of operations for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.  Certain items included in the prior period financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. There was no effect on net income or total stockholders’ equity.

Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segments:

The Company provides a broad range of financial services to individuals and companies in northeastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania.  Operations are managed and financial performance is primarily aggregated and reported in two lines of business, the Bank segment and the Trust segment.

Equity:

There are 50,000,000 shares authorized and available for issuance as of June 30, 2021.  Outstanding shares at June 30, 2021 were 28,321,894.

Comprehensive Income:

Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income.  Other comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale which are recognized as components of stockholders’ equity, net of tax effect.

Updates to Significant Accounting Policies:

Allowance for Credit Losses – Available-for-Sale Securities:  

Securities classified as AFS are those securities that the Company intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity.  Any decision to sell a security classified as AFS would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Company’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other similar factors.

8


 

The Company evaluates AFS securities that are in an unrealized loss position on a quarterly basis to determine whether the decline in fair value below the amortized costs basis is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors.  In making this evaluation, management considers the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.  Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of related deferred income taxes.  Credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on the balance sheet based on the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding charge to net income.  Both the ACL and the charge to net income may be reversed if conditions change.  However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired AFS security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount must be recognized in net income with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis rather than through the establishment of an ACL.  The Company has recorded no ACL related to the investment portfolio as of June 30, 2021.

Allowance for Credit Losses – Loans:  

The ACL represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses in the Company’s loan portfolio at the balance sheet date.  The Company estimates the ACL based on the amortized cost basis of the underlying loan and has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest from the loan’s amortized cost basis and the related measurement of the ACL.  Estimating the amount of the ACL is a function of a number of factors, including but not limited to changes in the loan portfolio, net charge-offs, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, and the level of potential problem loans, all of which may be susceptible to significant change.

Prior to January 1, 2021, as described in further detail in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company used an incurred loss impairment model.  This methodology assessed the overall appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses and included allocations for specifically identified impaired loans and loss factors for all remaining loans, with a component primarily based on historical loss rates and another component primarily based on other qualitative factors.  Impaired loans were individually assessed and measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan was collateral dependent.  Loans that were determined not to be impaired were collectively evaluated for impairment, stratified by type and allocated loss ranges based on the Company’s actual historical loss ratios for each strata, and adjustments were also provided for certain environmental and other qualitative factors.

On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted the current expected credit loss model (“CECL”).  This methodology for calculating the allowance for credit losses considers the possibility of loss over the life of the loan.  It also considers historical loss rates and other qualitative adjustments, as well as a new forward-looking component that considers reasonable and supportable forecasts over the expected life of each loan.  To develop the ACL estimate under the current expected loss model, the Company segments the loan portfolio into loan pools based on loan type and similar credit risk elements.  The Company uses the cohort (“cohort”) and the probability of default/loss given default (“PD/LGD”) methodologies as described in the Credit Quality Indicators section of the loan footnote. Under ASC 326, if a loan does not share similar risk characteristics with loans in that pool, expected credit losses for that loan are evaluated individually.  The Bank has established specific thresholds for the loan portfolio that trigger when loans need to be evaluated individually.    

Risks and Uncertainties:

The outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Company’s customers operate and could impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company.  In addition, it has caused disruptions in the economy and has disrupted banking and other financial activity in the areas in which the Company operates, including but not limited to the current interest rate environment, borrower and counterparty credit quality and market volatility.  While there has been no material impact to the Company’s business continuity or financial condition, the possibility of future challenges relating to COVID-19 remains.  

Congress, the President, and the Federal Reserve have taken several actions designed to cushion the economic fallout.  Most notably, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES”) and the Health and Economic Recovery Omnibus Emergency Solutions Act (“HEROES”), both signed into law during 2020, and the American Rescue Plan Act were multi trillion dollar legislative packages, and the American Rescue Plan Act signed into law on March 11, 2021, was a $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill.  The goal of these acts was to provide economic stability during the pandemic through various measures, including direct financial aid to American families and economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors.  The packages also included extensive emergency funding for hospitals and providers. The American Rescue Plan continued these measures by funding increases in vaccine distribution, additional cash payments to millions of Americans, extended unemployment benefits, and support for caregiving, nutrition programs, health care and pensions.  In addition to the general impact of COVID-19, certain provisions of these legislative acts, as well as other recent legislative and regulatory relief efforts, have had a material impact on the Company’s operations.

The Company’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its employees and customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions.  If the global response to contain COVID-19, and any new variants, continues for an extended period or is ultimately unsuccessful, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of

9


 

operations and cash flows.  While it is not possible to know the full universe or extent that the impact of COVID-19 will have on the Company’s operations, the Company will disclose potentially material items of which it becomes aware.

Financial position and results of operations:

A majority of the Company’s fee income declined and could be reduced further due to lingering COVID-19 affects.  In keeping with guidance from regulators, the Company worked with COVID-19 affected customers to waive fees from a variety of sources, such as, but not limited to, insufficient funds and overdraft fees, ATM fees, account maintenance fees.  From the beginning of the pandemic in 2020 through the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company has waived $780 thousand in fees.  The Company recognizes that the breadth of the economic impact is likely to continue impacting its fee income in future periods.

The Company’s interest income improved slightly in the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 and yet the net interest margin decreased by 20 basis points.  The margin could be reduced further due to COVID-19 and the continued low interest rate environment.  In keeping with guidance from regulators, the Company worked with COVID-19 affected borrowers to defer their payments.  Currently the Bank has two loans remaining that are deferring their loan payments.  While interest and fees will still accrue to income, through normal GAAP accounting, should eventual credit losses on these deferred payments emerge, interest income and fees accrued would need to be reversed.  In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted.  At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact may affect its borrowers’ ability to repay in future periods.

Capital and liquidity:

While the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by COVID-19, its reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses.  The Company relies on cash on hand as well as dividends from its subsidiaries.  If the Company’s capital deteriorates such that its subsidiary bank is unable to pay dividends to it for an extended period of time, the Company may not be able to pay dividends to shareholders.

The Company maintains access to multiple sources of liquidity.  Wholesale funding markets have remained open.  Rates for short term funding have recently been low but if funding costs are elevated for an extended period of time, it could have an adverse effect on the Company’s net interest margin.  If an extended recession caused large numbers of the Company’s deposit customers to withdraw their funds, the Company might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding.

 

New Accounting Standards:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (modified by ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses).  The ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates.  Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques changed to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses.  Organizations will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances.  Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available for sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration.  ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019.  Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted.

In accordance with the accounting relief provisions of CARES and subsequent provisions of HEROES, the Bank postponed the adoption of the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) accounting standard from January 1, 2020 to January 1, 2021.  The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance-sheet credit exposures.  Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2021 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.  The Company recorded the onetime adjustment to equity in the amount of $1.9 million, net of tax which increased the allowance for credit losses $2.5 million.

Business Combinations:

On June 22, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Cortland Bancorp Inc. (“Cortland”), the parent company of Cortland Savings and Banking Company (“Cortland Bank”).  Cortland Bank will merge with and into Farmers Bank.  Farmers Bank will be the surviving bank in the Bank Merger.  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement each shareholder of Cortland may elect to receive either $28.00 per share in cash or 1.75 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to an overall

10


 

limitation of 75% of the shares being exchanged for the Company’s shares and 25% for cash.  This transaction is subject to receipt of Cortland shareholder approval and customary regulatory approvals and is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2021.

As of June 30, 2021, Cortland had total assets of $793.0 million, which included gross loans of $492.0 million, deposits of $677.6 million and equity of $83.2 million.  Cortland Bank has branches located in Trumbull, Mahoning, Portage, Summit and Cuyahoga Counties in Ohio.

On January 7, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of Maple Leaf Financial, Inc. (“Maple Leaf”), the parent company of Geauga Savings Bank, with branches located in Cuyahoga and Geauga Counties in Ohio.  The Company expects the acquisition to increase synergies and cost savings resulting from the combination of the two companies.  The transaction involved both cash and 1,398,229 shares of stock totaling $43.0 million.  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, common shareholders of Maple Leaf had the right to receive $640.00 in cash or 45.5948 common shares, without par value, of the Company.  Holders of outstanding and unexercised warrants to purchase Maple Leaf Common Shares received an amount in cash equal to the excess of $640.00 over $370.00, the exercise price of such warrants.

Goodwill of $7.6 million, which is recorded on the balance sheet, arising from the acquisition consisted largely of synergies and the cost savings resulting from the combining of the entities.  The goodwill was determined not to be deductible for income tax purposes.  

The following table summarizes the consideration paid for Maple Leaf and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the closing date of the acquisition.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company has adopted ASU 2016-13 that makes improvements to the accounting for credit losses on securities available for sale.  The concept of other than-temporarily impaired securities has been replaced with the allowance for credit losses.  Securities available for sale are evaluated on an individual level and pooling of securities is no longer an option.  During this evaluation process, management considers the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.      

 

If the Company determines that a credit loss exists, the credit portion of the allowance will be measured using a discounted cash flow analysis using the effective interest rate as of the security’s purchase date.  As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of 697 securities, 134 of which were in an unrealized loss position.  The majority of the unrealized losses on the Company’s securities are related to its holdings of state and political subdivisions and mortgage-backed securities.  The Company does not consider its AFS securities with unrealized losses to be attributable to credit-related factors, as the unrealized losses have occurred as a

13


 

result of changes in noncredit related factors such as changes in interest rates, market spreads and market conditions subsequent to purchase, not credit deterioration.  As of June 30, 2021 the Company has not recorded an allowance for credit losses on AFS securities.

The Company offered three month deferrals upon request by the borrowers. For those borrowers in industries that were greatly impacted by COVID-19, additional deferrals were considered and granted beyond the initial three month period. The range of deferred months for subsequent requests were three to twelve months. The decline in deferred loans and balances was due to borrowers not requesting additional deferments and most continued to pay under the original terms of their loan.   

 

Farmers is also a preferred SBA lender and dedicated significant additional staff and other resources to help our customers complete and submit their applications and supporting documentation for loans offered under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, so they could obtain SBA approval and receive funding as quickly as possible. During the period of the PPP program, the Company facilitated PPP assistance to 1,714 business customers totaling $199.8 million.  The Company, on behalf of its customers, began processing borrower applications for PPP forgiveness at the beginning of September 2020.  The SBA has up to ninety days to review an application for PPP forgiveness and provide a decision at the end of that review.  Once forgiveness of the PPP loan has been communicated and payment is received from the SBA, the Company will record the cash received from the SBA, pay-off the loans based on the amount of forgiveness provided and accelerate the amount of net deferred loan fees/costs recognized for the portion of the PPP loans that are forgiven.  During the period ended June 30, 2021, the Company has received life to date payments from the SBA for forgiveness of loans totaling $181.6 million, or approximately 90.8% of the PPP loans originated in 2020. The Company has processed $83.9 million in new loans for PPP loan funding during the six month period ended June 30, 2021. The Company has also received payments from the SBA for forgiveness of loans totaling $5.2 million, or approximately 6.2%, of PPP loans originated in 2021.

 

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors.  The Company establishes a risk rating at origination for all commercial loan and commercial real estate relationships.  For relationships over $1 million, management monitors the loans on an ongoing basis for any changes in the borrower’s ability to service their debt.  Management also affirms the risk ratings for the loans in their respective portfolios on an annual basis.  The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention.  If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.  Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

21


 

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

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

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows:

The Company considers the performance of the loan portfolio and its impact on the allowance for credit losses.  For residential, consumer indirect and direct loan classes, the Company evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan, which was previously presented, and by payment activity.  In the 1-4 family residential real estate portfolio at June 30, 2021, other real estate owned and foreclosure properties were $30 thousand and $430 thousand, respectively.  At December 31, 2020, other real estate owned and foreclosure properties were $0 and $699 thousand, respectively.

The following tables present the recorded investment in residential, consumer indirect and direct auto loans based on payment activity as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.  Nonperforming loans are loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest and nonaccrual loans.

Allowance for Credit Losses

 

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 to calculate the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) which requires projecting credit losses over the lifetime of the credits.  The ACL is adjusted through the provision for credit losses and reduced by net charge offs of loans.  Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, the credit risk in the loan portfolio is largely influenced by general economic conditions and trends of the counties and markets in which the debtors operate, and the resulting impact on the operations of borrowers or on the value of any underlying collateral.

 

The credit loss estimation process involves procedures that consider the unique characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio segments.  These segments are disaggregated into the loan pools for monitoring.  A model of risk characteristics, such as loss history and delinquency experience, trends in past due and non-performing loans, as well as existing economic conditions and supportable forecasts used to determine credit loss assumptions.

 

The Company uses two methodologies to analyze loan pools.  The cohort method (“cohort”) and the probability of default/loss given default (“PD/LGD”). Cohort relies on the creation of cohorts to capture loans that qualify for a particular segment, as of a point in time. Those loans are then tracked over their remaining lives to determine their loss experience.  The Company aggregates financial assets on the basis of similar risk characteristics when evaluating loans on a collective basis.  Those characteristics include, but aren’t limited to, internal or external credit score, risk ratings, financial asset, loan type, collateral type, size, effective interest rate, term, or geographical location.  The Company uses cohort primarily for consumer loan portfolios.

The probability of default (“PD”) portion of PD/LGD is defined by the Company as 90 days past due, placed on non-accrual, becomes a troubled debt restructuring or is partially, or wholly, charged-off.  Typically, a one-year time period is used to asses PD.  PD can be measured and applied using various risk criteria.  Risk rating is one common way to apply PDs.  Loss given default (“LGD”) is to determine the percentage of loss by facility or collateral type.  LGD estimates can sometimes be driven, or influenced, by product type, industry or geography.  The Company uses PD/LGD primarily for commercial loan portfolios.

 

 

Revenue from Contracts with Customers:

A description of the Company’s revenue streams under ASC 606 follows:

 

Service charges on deposit accounts – The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Management reviewed the deposit account agreements, and determined that the agreements can be terminated at any time by either the Bank or the account holder.  Transaction fees, such as balance transfers, wires and overdraft charges are settled the day the performance obligation is satisfied.  The Bank’s monthly service charges and maintenance fees are for services provided to the customer on a monthly basis and are considered a series of services that have the same pattern of transfer each month.  The review of service charges assessed on deposit accounts included the amount of variable consideration that is a part of the monthly charges.  It was found that the waiver of service charges due to insufficient funds and dormant account fees is immaterial and would not require a change in the accounting treatment for these fees under the new revenue standards.

Debit Card Interchange Fees – Customers and the Bank have an account agreement and maintain deposit balances with the Bank.  Customers use a bank issued debit card to purchase goods and services, and the Bank earns interchange fees on those transactions, typically a percentage of the sale amount of the transaction.  The Bank records the amount due when it receives the settlement from the payment network.  Payments from the payment network are received and recorded into income on a daily basis.  There are no contingent debit card interchange fees recorded by the Company that could be subject to a clawback in future periods.

Trust fees – Services provided to Trust customers are a series of distinct services that have the same pattern of transfer each month.  Fees for trust accounts are billed and drafted from trust accounts monthly.  The Company records these fees on the income statement on a monthly basis.  Fees are assessed based on the total investable assets of the customer’s trust account.  A signed contract between the Company and the customer is maintained for all customer trust accounts with payment terms identified.  It is probable that the fees will be collectible as funds being managed are accessible by the asset manager.  Past history of trust fee income recorded by the Company indicates that it is highly unlikely that a significant reversal could occur.  There are no contingent incentive fees recorded by the Company that could be subject to a clawback in future periods.

Insurance Agency Commissions – Insurance agency commissions are received from insurance carriers for the agency’s share of commissions from customer premium payments.  These commissions are recorded into income when checks are received from the insurance carriers, and there is no contingent portion associated with these commission checks.  There may be a short time-lag in recording revenue when cash is received instead of recording the revenue when the policy is signed by the customer, but the time lag is insignificant and does not impact the revenue recognition process.

27


 

Insurance also receives incentive checks from the insurance carriers for achieving specified levels of production with particular carriers.  These amounts are recorded into income when a check is received, and there are no contingent amounts associated with these payments that may be clawed back by the carrier in the future.  Similar to the monthly commissions explained in the preceding paragraph, there may be a short time-lag in recording incentive revenue on a cash basis as opposed to estimating the amount of incentive revenue expected to be earned, this does not materially impact the recognition of Insurance revenue.  If there were any amounts that would need to be refunded for one specific Insurance customer, management believes the reversal would not be significant.

Other potential situations surrounding the recognition of Insurance revenue include the estimating potential refunds due to the likely cancellation of a percentage of customers cancelling their policies and recording revenue at the time of policy renewals.  Management concluded that since Insurance agency commissions represent only 2.5% of the Company’s total revenue, adjusting the current practice of recording insurance revenue for these situations would not have a material impact on the reporting of total revenue.  

Retirement Plan Consulting Fees – Revenue is recognized based on the level of work performed for the client.  Any payments that are received for work to be performed in the future are recorded in a deferred revenue account, and recorded into income when the fees are earned.  Retirement plan consulting fees represent only 0.9% of the Company’s total revenue, and therefore management has concluded that any adjustment of revenue for one particular customer for a refund or any other reason would be insignificant and would not materially impact the Company’s total revenue.  

Investment Commissions – Investment commissions are earned through the sales of non-deposit investment products to customers of the Company.  The sales are conducted through a third-party broker-dealer.  When the commissions are received and recorded into income on the Bank’s income statement, there is no contingent portion that may need to be refunded back to the third party broker dealer.  Investment commissions represent only 1.3% of the Company’s total revenue, and therefore management has concluded that any adjustment of revenue for a particular customer for a refund or any other reason would be insignificant and would not materially impact the Company’s total revenue.  

Other – Income items included in “Other” are Bank owned life insurance income, security gains, net gains on the sale of loans and other operating income.  Any amounts within the scope of ASC 606 are deemed immaterial.

 

Fair Value:

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset, or paid to transfer a liability (exit price), in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

Investment Securities: The Company uses a third party service to estimate fair value on available for sale securities on a monthly basis.  The Company’s service provider is considered a leading evaluation pricing service for U.S. domestic fixed income securities and complies fully with ASU 2016-01’s exit pricing requirements.  They subscribe to multiple third-party pricing vendors, and supplement that information with matrix pricing methods.  The fair values for investment securities, which consist of equity securities that are recorded at fair market value to comply with ASU 2016-01, are determined by quoted market prices in active markets, if available (Level 1).  The equity securities change in fair market value is recorded in the income statements.  For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for similar assets in markets that are not active or inputs other than quoted prices, which provide a reasonable basis for fair value determination.  Such inputs may include interest rates and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks and default rates.  Inputs used are derived principally from observable market data (Level 2).  For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3).  The fair values of Level 3 investment securities are determined by using unobservable inputs to measure fair value of assets for which there is little, if any market activity at the measurement date, using reasonable inputs and assumptions based on the best information at

28


 

the time, to the extent that inputs are available without undue cost and effort.  For the period ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, the fair value of Level 3 investment securities was immaterial.

Derivative Instruments: The fair values of derivative instruments are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Collateral Dependent Loans: Fair value estimates of collateral dependent loans that are individually reviewed are based on the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell.  Non-collateral dependent loans are valued based on discounted cash flows.  Loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses in 2021 and allowance for loan losses in prior periods.  For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals.  These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach.  Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available.  Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.  Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification.  These loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis and adjusted accordingly.

Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis.  These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair values are commonly based on recent real estate appraisals.  These appraisals may use a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach.  Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available.  Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial and commercial real estate properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company.  Once received, a member of the Appraisal Department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics.  On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what adjustments should be made to appraisals to arrive at fair value.

Collateral dependent loans were individually evaluated under ASC 326 for the period ended June 30, 2021, while impaired loans from the period ended December 31, 2020 were individually evaluated under ASC 310.  Collateral dependent loans had a principal balance of $5.5 million with a valuation allowance of $1.2 million at June 30, 2021.  Impaired loans that were measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral had a principal balance of $2.3 million, with a valuation allowance of $368 thousand at December 31, 2020.  Excluded from the above tables at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, are $591 thousand and $513 thousand of loans classified as troubled debt restructurings and measured using the present value of cash flows, which is not considered an exit price.

Collateral dependent commercial real estate loans, both owner-occupied and non-owner occupied are valued by independent external appraisals.  These external appraisals are prepared using the sales comparison approach and income approach valuation techniques.  Management makes subsequent unobservable adjustments to the collateral dependent loan appraisals.  Collateral dependent loans other than commercial real estate and other real estate owned are not considered material.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value, not previously described, are described as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

Restricted Stock: It is not practical to determine the fair value of restricted stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

Loans: Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: The Company uses a third party firm that uses cash flow analysis and current market interest rates along with adjustments for credit, liquidity and option risk to conform to the ASU 2016-01 exit price requirement.  Loans in the tables above consist of impaired credits held for investment.  Fair value for collateral dependent loans is based upon appraised values adjusted for trends observed in the market, less estimated cost to sell. The cash flow method is used for estimating fair value for noncollateral dependent loans. A valuation allowance was recorded for the excess of the loan’s recorded investment over the amounts determined by the collateral value method. This valuation is a component of the allowance for credit losses. The Company considers these fair values level 3.

Loans held for sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits – interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and money market accounts – are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification.  The carrying amounts of variable rate certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 2 classification.  Fair value for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Short-term Borrowings: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings, generally maturing within ninety days, approximate their fair values resulting in a Level 2 classification.

32


 

Long-term Borrowings: The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Off-balance Sheet Instruments: The fair value of commitments is not considered material.

 

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

 

Goodwill associated with the Company’s purchase of Maple Leaf in January 2020 and other past acquisitions totaled $45.8 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.  Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, which is determined through a two-step impairment test. Management performs goodwill impairment testing on an annual basis as of September 30.  The fair value of the reporting units is determined using a combination of a discounted cash flow method and a guideline public company method.

Leases:

 

The Company has operating leases for branch office locations, vehicles and certain office equipment such as printers, copiers and faxes. The leases have remaining lease terms of 2 months to 8.58 years, some of which include options to extend the lease for up to 10 years and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 month.

The right of use asset and lease liability were $4.5 million and $4.6 million as of June 30, 2021 and $4.8 million and $5.0 million at December 31, 2020.

Lease payments made for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2021 were $201 thousand and $403 thousand, while lease payments made for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2020 were $195 thousand and $390 thousand, respectively. Interest expense and amortization expense on finance leases for the three month period ended June 30, 2021 was $36 thousand and $121 thousand, and $72 thousand and $242 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2021.  Interest expense and amortization expense on finance leases for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 was $34 thousand and $107 thousand, and $57 thousand and $213 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2020.  The weighted-average remaining lease term for all leases was 4.6 years as of June 30, 2021 and the weighted-average discount rate was 3.0%.

Interest-Rate Swaps:

The Company uses a program that utilizes interest-rate swaps as part of its asset/liability management strategy.  The interest-rate swaps are used to help manage the Company’s interest rate risk position and not as derivatives for trading purposes.  The notional amount of the interest-rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties.  The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest-rate swap agreements.

The objective of the interest-rate swaps is to protect the related fixed rate commercial real estate loans from changes in fair value due to changes in interest rates.  The Company has a program whereby it lends to its borrowers at a fixed rate with the loan agreement containing a two-way yield maintenance provision, which will be invoked in the event of prepayment of the loan, and is expected to exactly offset the fair value of unwinding the swap.  The yield maintenance provision represents an embedded derivative which is bifurcated from the host loan contract and, as such, the swaps and embedded derivatives are not designated as hedges.  Accordingly, both instruments are carried at fair value and changes in fair value are reported in current period earnings.

Summary information about these interest-rate swaps at periods ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is as follows:

Stock Based Compensation:

 

During 2017, the Company, with the approval of shareholders, created the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”).  The 2017 Plan permits the award of up to 800 thousand shares to the Company’s directors and employees to attract and retain exceptional personnel, motivate performance and most importantly to help align the interests of the Company’s executives with those of the Company’s shareholders.  There were 34,562 service time based share awards and 52,249 performance based share awards granted under the 2017 Plan during the six month period ended June 30, 2021, as shown in the table below.  The actual number of performance based shares issued will depend on the relative performance of the Company’s average return on equity compared to a group of peer companies over a three year vesting period, ending December 31, 2023.  As of June 30, 2021, 309,504 shares are still available to be awarded from the 2017 Plan.    

The restricted stock awards were granted with a fair value price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant.  Expense recognized was $257 thousand and $587 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021, respectively.  During the prior periods, the expense recognized was $349 thousand and $686 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively.  As of June 30, 2021, there was $1.9 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the nonvested shares granted under the Plans.  The remaining cost is expected to be recognized over 2.8 years.  

The following is the activity under the Plans during the six month period ended June 30, 2021.

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies.  Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators.  Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements.  Management believes that as of June 30, 2021, the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The FDIC and other federal banking regulators revised the risk-based capital requirements applicable to financial holding companies and insured depository institutions, including the Company and the Bank, to make them consistent with agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“Basel III”).

The common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital ratios are calculated by dividing the respective capital amounts by risk-weighted assets.  The leverage ratio is calculated by dividing tier 1 capital by adjusted average total assets.

Basel III limits capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital to risk-weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meet minimum risk-based capital requirements.  Excluding the additional buffer, Basel III requires the Company and the Bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, (ii) a minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, (iii) a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0% and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of at least 4.0%.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition.  If only adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits.  If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required.  At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

Actual and required capital amounts and ratios, which do not include the capital conservation buffer, are presented below at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Short-term borrowings:

There were no short-term Federal Home Loan Bank Advances at June 30, 2021.  The Company had $3.5 million and $2.2 million in securities sold under repurchase agreements for the periods ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  In addition, the Company had a $350,000 balance on a line of credit with one lending institution at both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.  

Securities sold under repurchase agreements are secured by the Bank’s holdings of debt securities issued by U.S. Government sponsored entities and agencies.  These pledged securities which are 105% of the repurchase agreement balances, had a carrying amount of $3.7 million and $2.3 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  Management believes the risks associated with the agreements are minimal and, in the case of collateral decline, the Company has additional investment securities available to adequately pledge as guarantees for the repurchase agreements.

 

 

 

Long-term borrowings:

There were $65.0 million in long-term Federal Home Loan Bank Advances at June 30, 2021 with a weighted average interest rate of 1.38%.  Long-term Federal Home Loan Bank Advances were $67.0 million at December 31, 2020 and had a weighted average interest rate of 1.39%.  In addition, the Company had two Trust Preferred Debentures with an outstanding balance of $9.5 million at June 30, 2021 and $9.4 million at December 31, 2020.  Both of these debentures mature in calendar year 2036.  The debentures have a weighted average interest rate of 1.90% and 1.99% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Long-term and short-term FHLB advances are secured by a blanket pledge of residential mortgage, commercial real estate, and multi-family loans.  Based on this collateral, the Bank is eligible to borrow an additional $532.9 million at June 30, 2021.  Each advance is subject to a prepayment penalty if paid prior to its maturity date.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, but rather statements based on the Company’s current expectations, beliefs and assumptions regarding the future of Farmers’ business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, its intended results and future performance, the economy and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “expect,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan” “project,” or variations of these words, or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual future results could differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control.  Numerous uncertainties, risks, and changes could cause or contribute to Farmers’ actual results, performance, and achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.  

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, without limitation, risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), including without limitation, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as updated in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  

Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict, and readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on those forward-looking statements.  The following, which is not intended to be an all-encompassing list, summarizes several factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or expected in any forward-looking statement:

 

 

general economic conditions in markets where the Company conducts business, which could materially impact credit quality trends;

 

effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the local, national, and international economy, our organization and employees, and our customers and suppliers and their business operations, financial condition, and including our customers’ ability to repay loans;

 

disruptions in the mortgage and lending markets and significant or unexpected fluctuations in interest rates related to COVID-19 and governmental responses, including financial stimulus packages;

 

general business conditions in the banking industry;

 

the regulatory environment;

 

general fluctuations in interest rates;

 

demand for loans in the market areas where the Company conducts business;

 

rapidly changing technology and evolving banking industry standards;

 

competitive factors, including increased competition with regional and national financial institutions;

 

and new service and product offerings by competitors and price pressures;

 

the regulatory landscape, capital markets, and the response to and management of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the provision of additional economic stimulus from the federal government.

 

Other factors not currently anticipated may also materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.  There can be no assurance that future results will meet expectations.  While the Company believes that the forward-looking statements in the presentation are reasonable, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date made.  The Company does not undertake, and expressly disclaims, any obligation to update or alter any statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, expect as may be required by applicable law.

Overview

The Company’s results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 are discussed below.  However, the Company’s past results of operations may not reflect its future operating trends.  In March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic began to affect the U.S. economy and has created additional uncertainty for the Company’s business.  Regulatory actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have varied across jurisdictions and have included some limited closures of nonessential businesses, affecting customers of the Company.  The duration, extent and the effect of the government’s response to the economy is unknown.

The Company’s net income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $15.6 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, which compares to $11.0 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2020.  Net income excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 was $15.7 million or $0.55 per share, compared to $11.1 million or $0.39 per share for the same quarter in 2020.  Annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity were 1.90% and 17.17%, respectively, for the three month period ended June 30, 2021, compared to 1.56% and 14.02% for the same three month period in 2020.  Farmers’ annualized return on average tangible equity (non-GAAP) was 19.81% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to 16.69% for the same quarter in 2020.

 

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $30.1 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, compared to $19.7 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the same six month period in 2020.  Annualized return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.89% and 17.15%, respectively, for the six month period ending June 30, 2021, compared to 1.44% and 12.81% for the same period in 2020.  

 

On June 22, 2021, the Company, Cortland Bancorp Inc. (“Cortland”) and FMNB Merger Subsidiary IV, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Cortland will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub as the surviving entity in the Merger.  Promptly following the consummation of the Merger, it is expected that Merger Sub will be dissolved and liquidated and The Cortland Savings and Banking Company (“Cortland Bank”), the banking subsidiary of Cortland (“Cortland Bank”) will merge with and into the Bank (the “Bank Merger”).  Farmers Bank will be the surviving bank in the Bank Merger.  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement each shareholder of Cortland may elect to receive either $28.00 per share in cash or 1.75 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to an overall limitation of 75% of the shares being exchanged for the Company’s shares and 25% for cash. This transaction is subject to receipt of Cortland shareholder approval and customary regulatory approvals and is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2021.

 

As of June 30, 2021, Cortland had total assets of $793.0 million, which included gross loans of $492.0 million, deposits of $677.6 million and equity of $83.2 million.  Farmers expects that the Merger will increase its market share in Trumbull, Mahoning, Portage, Summit and Cuyahoga Counties and enable Farmers to continue building local scale throughout Northeast Ohio.  

 

In response to the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic, the Company focused first on the well-being of its people, customers and communities.  Preventative health measures were put in place including elimination of business related travel requirements, work from home requirements for all employees able to do so and social distancing precautions for all employees in the office.  At the beginning of the pandemic, the Company restricted access to branch lobbies to appointment only, but has now re-opened the lobbies using personal protective equipment and maintaining social distancing guidelines and continues to conduct preventative cleaning at all offices and branches. The Company also focused on business continuity measures, including forming a COVID-19 task force, monitoring potential business interruptions, making improvements to our remote working technology, and conducting regular discussions with our technology vendors.

 

Farmers offered special financial assistance to support customers who were experiencing financial hardships related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The following table reports the number and amount of payment deferrals by loan type as of the dates listed:

The Company offered three month deferrals upon request by the borrowers, beginning in the middle of March, 2020 and concluding at the end of the three month deferral period.  For those borrowers in industries that were greatly impacted by COVID-19, additional deferrals were considered and granted beyond the initial three month period.  The range of deferred months for subsequent requests were three to nine months.  The decline in deferred loans and balances was due to borrowers not requesting additional deferments and beginning to restart payments under the original terms of their loan.

Farmers is also a preferred SBA lender and we dedicated significant additional staff and other resources to help our customers complete and submit their applications and supporting documentation for loans offered under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, so they could obtain SBA approval and receive funding as quickly as possible.  During the initial 2020 period of the PPP program, the Company facilitated PPP assistance to 1,714 business customers totaling $199.8 million.  The Company, on behalf of its customers, began processing borrower applications for PPP forgiveness at the beginning of September 2020.  The SBA has up to ninety days to review an application for PPP forgiveness and provide a decision at the end of that review.  Once forgiveness of the PPP loans has been communicated and payment is received from the SBA, the Company records the cash received from the SBA, pay-off the loans based on the amount of forgiveness provided and accelerate the amount of net deferred loan fees/costs recognized for the portion of the PPP loans that are forgiven.  During the period ended June 30, 2021, the Company has received life to date payments from the SBA for forgiveness of loans totaling $181.6 million, or approximately 90.8% of the PPP loans originated in 2020.  The Company has processed $83.9 million in new loans for PPP loan funding during the six month period ended June 30, 2021.  The Company has also received payments from the SBA for forgiveness of loans totaling $5.2 million, or approximately 6.2% of PPP loans originated in 2021.   

 

 

Total loans were $1.96 billion at June 30, 2021 compared to $2.08 billion at December 31, 2020, representing an annualized growth rate of (5.69%).  The decrease in loans has occurred primarily in the PPP category, with $92.1 million, net of deferred fees, in outstanding balances at June 30, 2021 compared to $128.1 million at December 31, 2020 representing a decrease of $36.0 million or 28.1%.  Average loans now comprise 64.7% of the Bank's second quarter average earning assets at June 30, 2021, compared to 79.6% for the same period in 2020.  A summary of loans summarized by industries that have particular vulnerability to the effects of COVID-19 and their outstanding balance as a percentage of total loans is shown in the following table:

Non-performing assets to total assets remain at a low level, currently at 0.43%.  Early stage delinquencies, which are loans 30 - 89 days delinquent, also continue to remain at low levels, at $7.6 million, or 0.39% of total loans, at June 30, 2021.  Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $179 thousand, compared to $392 thousand in the same quarter in 2020 and net charge-offs as a percentage of average net loans outstanding is only 0.04% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared to 0.08% in the same quarter in 2020.  Loan modifications due to COVID-19 could negatively impact these ratios.

 

As a result of improved factors that exist in the current economic environment as well as the decrease in the loan portfolio when compared to prior quarters, the Company was able to decrease its provision for credit losses to $50 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared to the $425 thousand recorded in the first quarter of this year.  As an overall percentage of loans, the allowance for credit losses increased to 1.27% for the current quarter compared to 1.22% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  Excluding the PPP loans, this allowance for credit losses to gross loans ratio increased to 1.33% (non-GAAP) as of June 30, 2021, and the ratio of the allowance for credit losses to gross loans, excluding PPP loans and acquired loans is 1.52% (non-GAAP).  

The net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was 3.54%, a 20 basis point decrease from the quarter ended June 30, 2020.  In comparing the second quarter of 2021 to the same period in 2020, asset yields decreased 56 basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 49 basis points.  Most of the decrease in the asset yields was the result of lower rates earned on taxable and tax-exempt securities.  Each of the major interest-bearing liability categories experienced cost decreases compared to one year ago.

The net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 3.56%, an 18 basis point decrease from the six month period ended June 30, 2020.  Asset yields decreased 63 basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 58 basis points.  The reasons for the decreases are similar to those for the second quarter discussed above.

The Company made progress in its effort to increase noninterest income, which increased 8.1% to $9.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to $9.1 million in the same quarter of 2020.  The Company’s wealth management businesses led the improvement as trust fee income increased $506 thousand, or 27.3%, insurance agency commissions increased $267 thousand, or 39.2% and investment commissions increased $219 thousand, or 72.0%.  Other improvements noted include debit card interchange fees increasing $259 thousand, or 26.8%, and other operating income increasing $471 thousand, or 140.6%.  Those increases were offset by a $1.2 million, or 31.7%, decrease in gain on sale of mortgage loan income resulting from a slowdown in the level of mortgage loan refinancing.   For the six month period, noninterest income increased 20.3% to $20.5 million compared to $17.0 million for the same period of 2020.  The reasons for the increases are similar to those for the second quarter discussed above except for net gains on the sale of loans. For the six month period ended June 30, 2021, net gains on the sale of loans increased $661 thousand or 13.2%.

The Company has remained committed to managing its level of noninterest expenses.  Total noninterest expenses for the second quarter of 2021 decreased 1.7% to $17.4 million compared to $17.7 million in the same quarter in 2020. This was primarily a result of decreases in telephone and data communication costs of $209 thousand, or 60.1%, core processing charges of $103 thousand, or 11.0%, advertising expense of $126 thousand, or 39.1%, and FDIC insurance of $105 thousand, or 46.7%.  These decreases were offset by increases of $215 thousand, or 12.8%, in occupancy and equipment expense and $153 thousand, or 1.6%, in salaries and employee benefits.  Annualized noninterest expenses excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP) measured as a percentage of quarterly average assets improved from 2.5% in the second quarter of 2020 to 2.1% in the second quarter of 2021.  For the six month period ended June 30, 2021 noninterest expenses decreased 3.5% to $35.2 million compared to $36.5 million for the same period in 2020.  The decrease was due to a $1.3 million or 91.5% decrease in merger related costs compared to the same period ended in 2020.

The efficiency ratio for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 improved to 46.1% compared to 50.8% for the same quarter in 2020.  The increases in several categories of noninterest income and net interest income, accompanied with lower noninterest expenses were the main drivers of the improvement.  

The Company’s return on average tangible equity (Non-GAAP) was 19.81% and 19.76% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 compared to 16.69% and 15.03% for the same periods in 2020.

Return on average tangible equity is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, not a substitute for or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  With respect to the calculation of the tangible equity for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, reconciliations are displayed in the tables below.

(1)

The ratio is calculated by dividing noninterest expenses by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.  The Company strives for a lower efficiency ratio.  This efficiency ratio measure is not required by any regulatory agency but provides meaningful information to management and investors since a lower ratio indicates the Company is using their assets more effectively to generate profits.  

(2)

The tangible common equity ratio is calculated by dividing total common stockholders’ equity by total assets, after reducing both amounts by intangible assets.  The tangible common equity ratio is not required by U.S. GAAP or by applicable bank regulatory requirements, but is a metric used by management to evaluate the adequacy of the Company’s capital levels.  Since there is no authoritative requirement to calculate the tangible common equity ratio, the Company’s tangible common equity ratio is not necessarily comparable to similar capital measures disclosed or used by other companies in the financial services industry.  Tangible common equity and tangible assets are non - U.S. GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to,

not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  With respect to the calculation of the actual unaudited tangible common equity ratio as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, reconciliations of tangible common equity (non-GAAP) to U.S. GAAP total common stockholders’ equity and tangible assets (non-GAAP) to U.S. GAAP total assets are set forth below:

Net Interest Income.  Net interest income for the three month period ended June 30, 2021 was $26.5 million compared to $24.0 million for the same period in 2020.  On a tax equivalent basis net interest income was $27.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $24.5 million for the same period in 2020.  The net interest margin to average earning assets on a fully taxable equivalent basis decreased 20 basis points to 3.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 3.74% for the same three month period in the prior year.  In comparing the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, yields on earning assets decreased 56 basis points, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 49 basis points.

Net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 was $51.8 million compared to $46.2 million for the same period in 2020.  On a tax equivalent basis net interest income was $53.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to $47.4 million for the same period in 2020.  The net interest margin to average earning assets on a fully taxable equivalent basis decreased 18 basis points to 3.56% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 3.74% for the same six month period in the prior year.  In comparing the six month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, yields on earning assets decreased 63 basis points, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 58 basis points.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased 8.1% to $9.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to $9.1 million in the same quarter of 2020.  Insurance agency commissions increased $267 thousand or 39.2%, trust fees increased $506 thousand or 27.3%, other operating income increased $471 thousand or 140.6% and debit card interchange fees increased $259 thousand or 26.8%, but those increases were offset by a $1.2 million or 31.7% decrease in net gains on the sale of loans.  

Noninterest income increased 20.3% to $20.5 million during the first six months of 2021 compared to $17.0 million for the same period of 2020.  The reasons for the increases are similar to those for the second quarter discussed above except for net gains on the sale of loans. For the six month period ended June 30, 2021, net gains on the sale of loans increased $661 thousand or 13.2%.

Noninterest Expense.  Total noninterest expenses for the second quarter of 2021 decreased 1.7% to $17.4 million compared to $17.7 million in the same quarter in 2020, primarily as a result of decreases in advertising of $126 thousand or 39.1%, FDIC insurance premiums of $105 thousand or 46.7%, core processing charges of $103 thousand or 11.0%, telephone and data of $209 thousand or 60.1% and other operating expenses of $147 thousand or 5.4%.  These decreases were offset by increases in salaries and employee benefits of $153 thousand or 1.6% and occupancy and equipment expenses of $215 thousand or 12.8%.  Annualized noninterest expenses excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP) measured as a percentage of quarterly average assets decreased from 1.24% in the second quarter of 2020 to 1.06% in the second quarter of 2021.  

For the six month period ended June 30, 2021 noninterest expenses decreased 3.5% to $35.2 million compared to $36.5 million for the same period in 2020.  The reasons for the decrease are similar to those for the second quarter discussed above with the addition of a $1.3 million or 91.5% decrease in merger related costs.

The Company’s tax equivalent efficiency ratio for the three month period ended June 30, 2021 was 46.1% compared to 50.8% for the same period in 2020.  The tax equivalent efficiency ratio for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 was 47.2% compared to 55.0% for the six month period ended June 30, 2020.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense totaled $3.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and $1.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.  The effective tax rate for the three month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 17.5% and 14.8%, respectively.

Income tax expense was $6.4 million for the first six months of 2021 and $3.6 million for the first six months of 2020.  The effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 was 17.5%, compared to 15.5% for the same period in 2020.

Financial Condition

Cash and Cash Equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $105.3 million during the first six months of 2021 from $254.6 million to $149.4 million.  The decrease in the cash balance is part of normal fluctuations on the Company’s $3.3 billion balance sheet.  The Company expects cash and cash equivalents to be reduced over the next few months as cash is used for security portfolio purchases, and to a lesser extent, loan growth.

Securities.  Securities available-for-sale increased by $420.9 million since December 31, 2020.  The Company intends to continue purchasing securities in order to utilize excess cash on hand.

Loans.  Gross loans decreased $118.2 million since December 31, 2020.  The decrease in loans has occurred across many of the major loan categories but especially the commercial real estate and residential real estate loan portfolios.  The decrease is mainly due to a PPP loan forgiveness program, the slow lending environment and the high level of competition in the lending arena.

(a)

The allowance for credit losses under CECL method is used for the periods ended June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 while prior periods use the incurred loss methodology.

In accordance with the accounting relief provisions of CARES and subsequent provisions of HEROES, the Bank postponed the adoption of the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) accounting standard from January 1, 2020 to January 1, 2021.  The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance-sheet credit exposures.  Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2021 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.  The Company recorded the onetime adjustment to equity in the amount of $1.9 million, net of tax which increased the allowance for credit losses $2.5 million.

As a result of improved factors that exist in the current economic environment as well as the decrease in the loan portfolio when compared to prior quarters, the Company was able to decrease its provision for credit losses to $50 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared to the $425 thousand recorded in the first quarter of this year.  The Company estimates the ACL based on the amortized cost basis of the underlying loan and has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest from the loan’s amortized cost basis and the related measurement of the ACL.  Estimating the amount of the ACL is a function of a number of factors, including but not limited to changes in the loan portfolio, net charge-offs, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, and the level of potential problem loans, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of the total loan portfolio was 1.27% at June 30, 2021 and 0.79% at June 30, 2020.  The loan portfolios acquired at fair market value from previous acquisitions were recorded at fair market value and without an associated allowance for loan loss.  When the acquired loans are excluded, the ratio of allowance for loan losses to total non-acquired loans is 1.31% at June 30, 2021 compared to 0.92% at June 30, 2020.  Early stage delinquencies, which are loans 30 - 89 days delinquent, as a percentage of total loans decreased from 0.48% at June 30, 2020 to 0.39% at June 30, 2021 and non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans increased from 0.57% at June 30, 2020 to 0.71% at June 30, 2021.  The allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans increased from 138.73% at June 30, 2020 to 178.81% at June 30, 2021.  The amount of loans made to vulnerable industries (Restaurants, Hotels, Golf Courses and Energy) is 4.65% of our total loan portfolio.

Based on the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, management believes that the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2021 is adequate and reflects the new requirements of the newly adopted CECL standard.  The provision for credit losses is based on management’s judgment after taking into consideration all factors connected with the collectability of the existing loan portfolio.  Management estimates the allowance balance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses.  Specific factors considered by management in determining the amounts charged to operating expenses include previous credit loss experience, the status of past due interest and principal payments, the quality of

financial information supplied by loan customers and the general condition of the industries in the community to which loans have been made.

Deposits.  Total deposits increased $167.9 million from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021, for a balance of $2.8 billion.  Interest bearing accounts increased a combined $113.1 million, or 5.65%, during the first six months of 2021. The increase in interest bearing accounts is mostly due to an approximate increase of $80.2 million in public funds deposits. Money market index accounts increased as customers moved funds out of certificates of deposit during the period.  The Company also believes a portion of the deposit growth is related to business customers depositing their PPP loan proceeds in their DDA (Demand Deposit Account).  The Company’s strategy is to maintain deposit balances.  At June 30, 2021, core deposits, which include, savings and money market accounts, time deposits less than $250 thousand, demand deposits and interest bearing demand deposits represented approximately 95.15% of total deposits.

Borrowings.  Total borrowing balances decreased from $78.9 million at December 31, 2020 to $78.4 million at June 30, 2021.  

Capital Resources.  Total stockholders’ equity increased $16.8 million, or 4.8%, during the six month period ended June 30, 2021.  The increase in equity is due primarily to the net income addition to retained earnings less the amount of dividends paid.  Shareholders received $0.11 per share in cash dividends in each of the first two quarters in 2021. Book value per share increased from $12.42 per share at December 31, 2020 to $12.95 per share at June 30, 2021.  The Company’s tangible book value, which is a non-GAAP measure, per share also increased, from $10.66 per share at December 31, 2020 to $11.23 per share at June 30, 2021.

The capital management function is a regular process that consists of providing capital for both the current financial position and the anticipated future growth of the Company.  The Company must hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% above adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios.  At June 30, 2021 the Company is required to maintain 4.5% common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets excluding the conservation buffer to be adequately capitalized.  The Company’s common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets was 13.95%, total risk-based capital ratio stood at 15.54%, and the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and Tier 1 leverage ratio were at 14.39% and 9.70%, respectively, at June 30, 2021.  The Company opted not to phase in, over 3 years, the effects of the initial CECL entry to equity for the implementation of ACS 326, recorded on January 1, 2021.  Management believes that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject, as of June 30, 2021.

Federal bank regulatory agencies finalized a rule that simplifies capital requirements for community banks by allowing them to adopt a simple leverage ratio to measure capital adequacy.  The community bank leverage ratio framework removes requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for a qualifying community bank that opts into the framework. 

The community bank leverage ratio framework was available for banking organizations to use in their March 31, 2020, Call Report.  The Company has not elected to use the new framework as of June 30, 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company follows financial accounting and reporting policies that are in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These policies are presented in Note 1 of the consolidated audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.  Critical accounting policies are those policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  The Company has identified three accounting policies that are critical accounting policies and an understanding of these policies is necessary to understand the Company’s financial statements.  These policies relate to determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, for both the investment and loan portfolios and if there is any impairment of goodwill or other intangible.  Additional information regarding these policies is included in the notes to the aforementioned 2020 consolidated financial statements, Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), Note 2 (Business Combination), Note 4 (Loans), and the sections captioned “Loan Portfolio.”

Securities classified as AFS are those securities that the Company intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity.  Any decision to sell a security classified as AFS would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Company’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other similar factors.

The Company evaluates securities AFS in unrealized loss positions on a quarterly basis to determine whether the decline in fair value below the amortized costs basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors.  In making this evaluation, management considers the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.  Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of related deferred income taxes.  Credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on the balance sheet based on the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding charge to net income.  Both the ACL and the charge to net income may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired AFS security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount must be recognized in net income with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis rather than through the establishment of an ACL.  The Company has recorded no ACL related to the investment portfolio as of June 30, 2021.

The ACL represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses in the Company’s loan portfolio at the balance sheet date.  The Company estimates the ACL based on the amortized cost basis of the underlying loan and has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest from the loan’s amortized cost basis and the related measurement of the ACL.  Estimating the amount of the ACL is a function of a number of factors, including but not limited to changes in the loan portfolio, net charge-offs, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, and the level of potential problem loans, all of which may be susceptible to significant change.

Prior to January 1, 2021, as described in further detail in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company used an incurred loss impairment model.  This methodology assessed the overall appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses and included allocations for specifically identified impaired loans and loss factors for all remaining loans, with a component primarily based on historical loss rates and another component primarily based on other qualitative factors.  Impaired loans were individually assessed and measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan was collateral dependent.  Loans that were determined not to be impaired were collectively evaluated for impairment, stratified by type and allocated loss ranges based on the Company’s actual historical loss ratios for each strata, and adjustments were also provided for certain environmental and other qualitative factors.

On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted CECL.  This methodology also considers historical loss rates and other qualitative adjustments, as well as a new forward-looking component that considers reasonable and supportable forecasts over the expected life of each loan.  To develop the ACL estimate under the current expected loss model, the Company segments the loan portfolio into loan pools based on loan type and similar credit risk elements.  The Company uses the cohort and PD/LGD (Probability of Default/Loss Given Default) methodologies as described previously.      

U.S. GAAP establishes standards for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and the impairment assessment of goodwill.  Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired.  The Company’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to provide quality, cost-effective services in a competitive marketplace.  The goodwill value is supported by revenue that is in part driven by the volume of business transacted.  A decrease in earnings resulting from a decline in the customer base or the inability to deliver cost-effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings in future periods.  U.S. GAAP requires an annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.  The fair value of the goodwill is estimated by reviewing the past and projected operating results for the subsidiaries and comparable industry information.

Liquidity

The Company maintains, in the opinion of management, liquidity sufficient to satisfy depositors’ requirements and meet the credit needs of customers.  The Company depends on its ability to maintain its market share of deposits as well as acquiring new funds.  The Company’s ability to attract deposits and borrow funds depends in large measure on its profitability, capitalization and overall financial condition.  The Company’s objective in liquidity management is to maintain the ability to meet loan commitments, purchase securities or to repay deposits and other liabilities in accordance with their terms without an adverse impact on current or future earnings.  Principal sources of liquidity for the Company include assets considered relatively liquid, such as federal funds sold, cash and due from banks, as well as cash flows from maturities and repayments of loans, and securities.

Along with its liquid assets, the Bank has additional sources of liquidity available which help to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed.  These other sources include, but are not limited to, loan repayments, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates and the purchasing of federal funds and borrowings on approved lines of credit at major domestic banks.  At June 30, 2021, this line of credit totaled $35 million of which the Bank had not borrowed against.  In addition, the Company has two revolving lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling $6.2 million. The outstanding balance at June 30, 2021 was $350 thousand.  Management feels that its liquidity position is adequate and continues to monitor the position on a monthly basis.  As of June 30, 2021, the Bank had outstanding balances with the Federal Home Loan Bank of $65.0 million with additional borrowing capacity of approximately $532.9 million with the FHLB, as well as access to the Federal Reserve Discount Window, which provides an additional source of funds.  The Bank views its membership in the FHLB as a solid source of liquidity.

The primary investing activities of the Company are originating loans and purchasing securities.  During the first six months of 2021, net cash used by investing activities amounted to $289.6 million, compared to $162.6 million used in the same period in 2020.  Loan originations provided $120.3 million during the first six months of 2021, mainly due to the repayment of PPP loans, compared to the $151.8 million used during the same period in 2020.  Purchases of securities available for sale used $469.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to $37.4 million during the first six months of 2020. The large increase is a result of the bank utilizing excess cash on hand.

The primary financing activities of the Company are obtaining deposits, repurchase agreements and other borrowings.  Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $160.9 million for the period ended June 30, 2021, compared to $176.7 million provided in financing activities for the same period in 2020.  Deposits provided $167.9 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to $247.3 million provided during the same period ended June 30, 2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, to meet the financial needs of our customers, we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.  These financial instruments generally include commitments to originate mortgage, commercial and consumer loans, and involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The Bank’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  Because some commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  The same credit policies are used in making commitments as are used for on-balance sheet instruments.  Collateral is required in instances where deemed necessary.  Undisbursed balances of loans closed include funds not disbursed but committed for construction projects.  Unused lines of credit include funds not disbursed, but committed for, home equity, commercial and consumer lines of credit.  Financial standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.  Those guarantees are primarily used to support public and private borrowing arrangements.  The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.  Total unused commitments were $483.0 million at June 30, 2021 and $425.5 million at December 31, 2020.  Additionally, the Company committed up to $8 million in subscriptions in Small Business Investment Company investment funds.  At June 30, 2021 the Company has invested the full $8 million in these funds.

Recent Market and Regulatory Developments

Various and significant legislation affecting financial institutions and the financial industry is from time to time introduced in the U.S. Congress and state legislatures, as well as by regulatory agencies.  Such initiatives may include proposals to expand or contract the powers of bank holding companies and depository institutions or proposals to substantially change the financial institution regulatory system.  

Also, such statutes, regulations and policies are continually under review by Congress, state legislatures and federal and state regulatory agencies and are subject to change at any time, particularly in the current economic and regulatory environment.  Any such change in statutes, regulations or regulatory policies applicable to the Company could have a material effect on the business of the Company.

 

 

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk  

The Company’s ability to maximize net income is dependent, in part, on management’s ability to plan and control net interest income through management of the pricing and mix of assets and liabilities.  Because a large portion of assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature, changes in interest rates and monetary or fiscal policy affect its financial condition and can have significant impact on the net income of the Company.  Additionally, the Company’s balance sheet is slightly asset sensitive and in the uncertain interest rate environment that exists today, the Company’s net interest margin could be under additional pressure should interest rates continue to remain low in the near future.

The Company considers the primary market exposure to be interest rate risk.  Simulation analysis is used to monitor the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates, and the effect of the change to net interest income.  The following table shows the effect on net interest income and the net present value of equity in the event of a sudden and sustained 300 basis point increase or 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates:

It should be noted that the change in the net present value of equity exceeded policy when the simulation model assumed a sudden decrease in rates of 100 basis points (1%).  This is primarily due to the positive impact on the fair value of assets not being as great as the negative impact on the fair value of certain liabilities.  Specifically, because core deposits typically bear relatively low interest rates, their fair value would be negatively impacted as the rates could not be adjusted by the full extent of the sudden decrease in rates.  Management will continue to monitor the policy exception and may consider changes to the asset/liability position in the future.  The remaining results of the simulations indicate that interest rate change results fall within internal limits established by the Company at June 30, 2021.  A report on interest rate risk is presented to the Board of Directors and the Asset/Liability Committee on a quarterly basis.  The Company has no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes, nor does it hold derivative financial instruments, and does not plan to purchase these instruments in the near future.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is a defendant in lawsuits and other adversary proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.  Legal costs incurred in connection with the resolution of claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred, although the Company establishes accruals where losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable.  The Company’s assessment of the current exposure with respect to adverse claims in legal matters could change in the event of the discovery of additional facts in such matters or upon determinations by judges, juries, administrative agencies or other finders of fact that are inconsistent with the Company’s evaluation of claims. It is possible that the ultimate resolution of matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the results of operations in a particular future period as the time and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not known.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

Changes in the federal, state, or local tax laws may negatively impact our financial performance. On March 31, 2021, President Biden unveiled his infrastructure plan, which includes a proposal to increase the federal corporate tax rate from 21% to 28% as part of a package of tax reforms to help fund the spending proposals in the infrastructure plan. On April 28, 2021, President Biden announced additional significant proposals, including the American Families Plan, which are paid for largely by raising certain taxes.  Although the infrastructure plan has not reach congress, it is expected to proceed in some form this year due to the Democratic Party's slim majority in both houses of Congress. If adopted as proposed, the increase of the corporate tax rate would adversely affect our results of operations in future periods.  

For additional discussion of risk factors related to the Company, refer to Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 2.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
