Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NorthWest Indiana Bancorp (the “Bancorp” or “NWIN”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries NWIN Risk Management, Inc. (a captive insurance subsidiary) and Peoples Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Peoples Service Corporation, NWIN, LLC, NWIN Funding, Incorporated, and Columbia Development Company, LLC. Peoples Bank (formerly known as “Peoples Bank SB”) was an Indiana-chartered stock savings bank until its conversion to an Indiana-chartered commercial bank effective May 22, 2020. The Bancorp’s business activities include being a holding company for the Bank as well as a holding company for NWIN Risk Management, Inc. The Bancorp’s earnings are primarily dependent upon the earnings of the Bank. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete presentation of consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated balance sheets of the Bancorp as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, and the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 2019, and consolidated statements of cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 2019. The income reported for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Note 2 - Use of Estimates

Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the disclosures provided. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates associated with the allowance for loan losses, fair values of foreclosed real estate, loan servicing rights, investment securities, deferred tax assets, goodwill, and the status of contingencies are particularly susceptible to material change in the near term.

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported in China, and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic. The outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Bancorp’s customers operate and could impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Bancorp. The spread of the outbreak has caused significant disruptions in the U.S. economy and has disrupted banking and other financial activity in the areas in which the Bancorp operates.

Currently, the Bancorp does not expect COVID-19 to affect its ability to account for the assets on its balance sheet in a timely manner; however, this could change in future periods. While certain valuation assumptions and judgments will change to account for pandemic-related circumstances such as widening credit spreads, the Bancorp does not anticipate significant changes in methodology used to determine the fair value of assets measured in accordance with GAAP.

The Bancorp is working with customers directly affected by COVID-19 in a discliplined manner. The Bancorp is prepared to offer short-term assistance in accordance with regulatory guidelines for those customers specifically facing financial hardships due to the pandemic. As a result of the current economic environment caused by the COVID-19 virus, the Bancorp is engaging in more frequent communication with borrowers to better understand their situation and the challenges faced, allowing it to respond proactively as needs and issues arise. Should economic conditions worsen, the Bancorp could experience further increases in its required allowance for loan loss and record additional provision for loan loss expense. It is possible that the Bancorp’s asset quality measures could worsen at future measurement periods if the effects of COVID-19 are prolonged.

In addition, COVID-19 could cause a further and sustained decline in the Bancorp’s stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause us to perform goodwill and intangible asset impairment tests and result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period. In the event that the Bancorp concludes that all or a portion of its goodwill or intangible assets are impaired, a non-cash charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded to earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible capital or regulatory capital. Details on goodwill impairment testing can be found in Note 7, Intangibles and Acquisition Related Accounting.

Note 3 - Acquisition Activity

On January 24, 2019, the Bancorp completed its previously announced acquisition of AJS Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“AJSB”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 30, 2018 between the Bancorp and AJSB (the “AJSB Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the AJSB Merger Agreement, AJSB merged with and into NWIN, with NWIN as the surviving corporation. Simultaneously with the AJSB Merger, A.J. Smith Federal Savings Bank, a federally chartered savings bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of AJSB, merged with and into Peoples Bank, with Peoples Bank as the surviving bank.

In connection with the AJSB Merger, each AJSB stockholder holding 100 or more shares of AJSB common stock received fixed consideration of (i) 0.2030 shares of NWIN common stock, and (ii) $7.20 per share in cash for each outstanding share of AJSB’s common stock. Stockholders holding less than 100 shares of AJSB common stock received $16.00 in cash and no stock consideration for each outstanding share of AJSB common stock. Any fractional shares of NWIN common stock that an AJSB stockholder would have otherwise received in the AJSB Merger were cashed out in the amount of such fraction multiplied by $43.01.

The Bancorp issued 416,478 shares of Bancorp common stock to the former AJSB stockholders, and paid cash consideration of approximately $15.7 million. Based upon the closing price of NWIN’s common stock on January 23, 2019, the transaction had an implied valuation of approximately $33.2 million, which includes unallocated shares held by the AJSB Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”), some of which were cancelled in connection with the closing to satisfy the ESOP’s outstanding loan balance. Acquisition costs incurred in 2019 related to the AJSB Merger were approximately $2.1 million. The acquisition further expanded the Bank’s banking center network in Cook County, Illinois, expanding the Bank’s full-service retail banking network to 22 banking centers.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to net tangible and intangible assets based on their current estimated fair values on the date of the acquisition. Based on the valuations of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the final purchase price for the AJSB acquisition is allocated as follows:

ASSETS			*LIABILITIES*
Cash and due from banks	$	68,303	Deposits
Investment securities, available for sale		3,432	Non-interest bearing	$	24,502

Unrealized losses on securities have not been recognized into income because the securities are of high credit quality or have undisrupted cash flows. Management has the intent and ability to hold those securities for the foreseeable future, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and volatility in securities markets. The fair values are expected to recover as the securities approach maturity.

A deferred cost reserve is maintained for the portfolio of manufactured home loans that have been purchased. This reserve is available for use for manufactured home loan nonperformance and costs associated with nonperformance. If the segment performs in line with expectation, the deferred cost reserve is paid as an origination cost to the third party originator of the loan. The unamortized balance of the deferred cost reserve totaled $3.3 million and $1.9 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and is included in net deferred loan origination costs.

The Bancorp has established a standard loan grading system to assist management, lenders and review personnel in their analysis and supervision of the loan portfolio. The use and application of these grades by the Bancorp is uniform and conforms to regulatory definitions. The loan grading system is as follows:

1 – Minimal Risk

Borrower demonstrates exceptional credit fundamentals, including stable and predictable profit margins, strong liquidity and a conservative balance sheet with superior asset quality. Excellent cash flow coverage of existing and projected debt service. Historic and projected performance indicates borrower is able to meet obligations under almost any economic circumstances.

2 – Moderate risk

Borrower consistently internally generates sufficient cash flow to fund debt service, working assets, and some capital expenditures. Risk of default considered low.

3 – Above average acceptable risk

Borrower generates sufficient cash flow to fund debt service and some working assets and/or capital expansion needs. Profitability and key balance sheet ratios are at or slightly above peers. Current trends are positive or stable. Earnings may be level or trending down slightly or be erratic; however, positive strengths are offsetting. Risk of default is reasonable but may warrant collateral protection.

4 – Acceptable risk

Borrower generates sufficient cash flow to fund debt service, but most working asset and all capital expansion needs are provided from external sources. Profitability ratios and key balance sheet ratios are usually close to peers but one or more ratios (e.g. leverage) may be higher than peer. Earnings may be trending down over the last three years. Borrower may be able to obtain similar financing from other banks with comparable or less favorable terms. Risk of default is acceptable but requires collateral protection.

5 – Marginally acceptable risk

Borrower may exhibit excessive growth, declining earnings, strained cash flow, increasing leverage and/or weakening market position that indicate above average risk. Limited additional debt capacity, modest coverage, and average or below average asset quality, margins and market share. Interim losses and/or adverse trends may occur, but not to the level that would affect the Bank’s position. The potential for default is higher than normal but considered marginally acceptable based on prospects for improving financial performance and the strength of the collateral.

6 – Pass/monitor

The borrower has significant weaknesses resulting from performance trends or management concerns. The financial condition of the company has taken a negative turn and may be temporarily strained. Cash flow may be weak but cash reserves remain adequate to meet debt service. Management weaknesses are evident. Borrowers in this category will warrant more than the normal level of supervision and more frequent reporting.

7 – Special mention (watch)

Special mention credits are considered bankable assets with no apparent loss of principal or interest envisioned but requiring a high level of management attention. Assets in this category are currently protected but are potentially weak. These borrowers are subject to economic, industry, or management factors having an adverse impact upon their prospects for orderly service of debt. The perceived risk in continued lending is considered to have increased beyond the level where such loans would normally be granted. These assets constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a classification of Substandard.

8 – Substandard

This classification consists of loans which are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged. Financial statements normally reveal some or all of the following: poor trends, lack of earnings and cash flow, excessive debt, lack of liquidity, and the absence of creditor protection. Loans are still considered collectible, but due to increased risks and defined weaknesses of the credit, some loss could be incurred in collection if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Performing loans are loans that are paying as agreed and are approximately less than ninety days past due on payments of interest and principal.

During the first nine months of 2020, one commercial real estate loan totaling $145 thousand, one residential loan totaling $51 thousand and one home equity loan totaling $23 thousand were renewed as a troubled debt restructuring. One commercial business trouble debt restructuring loan totaling $287 thousand has subsequently defaulted during the periods presented. All of the loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are also considered impaired. The valuation basis for the Bancorp’s troubled debt restructurings is based on the present value of cash flows, unless consistent cash flows are not present, then the fair value of the collateral securing the loan is the basis for valuation.

The Bancorp's individually evaluated impaired loans are summarized below:

Note 7 – Intangibles and Acquisition Related Accounting

The Bancorp established a goodwill balance totaling $11.1 million with the acquisitions of AJSB, First Personal, First Federal, and Liberty Savings. Goodwill of $2.9 million, $5.4 million, $2.0 million, and $804 thousand were established with the acquisition of AJSB, First Personal, First Federal, and Liberty Savings, respectively. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or when circumstances or events are deemed significant enough to test for impairment. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired. The Bancorp’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of the Bancorp to provide quality, cost effective banking services in a competitive marketplace. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, and its broad effects on the economy, the Bancorp deemed it necessary to perform an interim impairment test of goodwill as of June 30, 2020. As part of the impairment test, the Bancorp enlisted a third party expert to perform a quantitative goodwill valuation analysis. The analysis showed the implied fair value of goodwill was higher than its carrying value and no impairment was necessary. During the third quarter, the Bancorp performed an internal analysis, noting no impairment was necessary. The Bancorp will perform their annual impairment test as of December 31, 2020, and depending on current market conditions, the Bancorp will consider the use of a third party expert to perform another quantitative goodwill valuation analysis.Goodwill totaled $11.1 million as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019.

In addition to goodwill, a core deposit intangible of $93 thousand for the acquisition of First Federal was established and is being amortized over an initial period of 7.9 years on a straight line basis. A core deposit intangible of $471 thousand for the acquisition of Liberty Savings was established and is being amortized over an initial period of 8.2 years on a straight line basis. A core deposit intangible of $3.0 million for the acquisition of First Personal was established and is being amortized over an initial period of 6.4 years on a straight line basis. A core deposit intangible of $2.9 million for the acquisition of AJSB was established and is being amortized over an initial period of 6.5 years on a straight line basis. The table below summarizes the annual amortization:

Amortization recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is as follows:

For the AJSB acquisition, as part of the fair value of certificates of deposit, a fair value premium was established of $174 thousand that is being amortized over 14 months on a straight line basis. Approximately $34 thousand of amortization was taken as income during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The fair market premium on the certificates of deposit has fully amortized as of September 30, 2020.

Note 8 - Concentrations of Credit Risk

The primary lending area of the Bancorp encompasses Lake County in northwest Indiana and Cook County in northeast Illinois, where collectively a majority of loan activity is concentrated. The Bancorp is also an active lender in Porter County, and to a lesser extent, LaPorte, Newton and Jasper counties in Indiana; and DuPage, Lake, and Will counties in Illinois. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including residences, commercial real estate, land development, business assets and consumer assets.

Note 9 - Earnings per Share

Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per common share computations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 2019 are as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

Note 10 - Stock Based Compensation

The Bancorp’s 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which was adopted by the Bancorp’s Board of Directors on February 27, 2015, and approved by the Bancorp’s shareholders on April 24, 2015, permits the grant of equity awards for up to 250,000 shares of common stock. Awards granted under the Plan may be in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, performance shares, or performance units.

As required by the Stock Compensation Topic, companies are required to record compensation cost for stock options and awards provided to employees in return for employment service. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, stock based compensation expense of $309 thousand was recorded, compared to $232 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. It is anticipated that current outstanding unvested awards will result in additional compensation expense of approximately $687 thousand through 2023 with an additional $107 thousand in 2020, $339 thousand in 2021, $209 thousand in 2022, and $32 thousand in 2023.

There were no incentive stock options granted during the first nine months of 2020 or 2019. When options are granted, the cost is measured at the fair value of the options when granted, and this cost is expensed over the employment service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options or awards. At September 30, 2020, there were no outstanding incentive stock options.

There were 13,243 shares of restricted stock granted during the first nine months of 2020 compared to 7,407 shares granted during the first nine months of 2019. Restricted stock awards are issued with an award price equal to the market price of the Bancorp’s common stock on the award date and vest between three and five years after the grant date. Forfeiture provisions exist for personnel that separate employment before the vesting period expires. A summary of restricted stock activity under the Bancorp’s Plan described above for the year ended December 31, 2019, and nine months ended September 30, 2020, follows:

Non-vested Shares	Shares			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Non-vested at January 1, 2019		27,423		$	32.58

Note 11 – Change in Accounting Principles

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This Standard simplifies the manner in which an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity, prior to the amendments in ASU No. 2017-04, had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities, including unrecognized assets and liabilities, in accordance with the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. However, under the amendments in this ASU, an entity should (1) perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and (2) recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, with the understanding that the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, ASU No. 2017-04 removes the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails such qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Finally, this ASU amends the Overview and Background sections of the Accounting Standards Codification as part of the FASB’s initiative to unify and improve such sections across Topics and Subtopics. The new guidance is effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2020, and was adopted on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this ASU has not had a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, and the Bancorp has not recorded goodwill impairment to date as part of their acquisition activity.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. This Standard amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. In particular, the amendments in this ASU require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not, however, require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; instead, the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The amendments in this ASU more closely align the amortization period of premiums and discounts to expectations incorporated in market pricing on the underlying securities. In fact, in most cases, market participants price securities to the call date that produces the worst yield when the coupon is above current market rates (i.e., the security is trading at a premium), and price securities to maturity when the coupon is below market rates (i.e., the security is trading at a discount), in anticipation that the borrower will act in its economic best interest. The new guidance was effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2019, and was adopted on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this ASU has not had a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, management has recognized amortization expense as dictated by the amount of premiums and the differences between maturity and call dates at the time of adoption.

Note 12 - Upcoming Accounting Standards

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU includes increased disclosures and various changes to the accounting and measurement of financial assets including the Bancorp’s loans and available-for-sale and held-to-maturity debt securities. Each financial asset presented on the balance sheet would have a unique allowance for credit losses valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The amendments in this ASU also eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and instead, reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses using reasonable and supportable forecasts. In October 2019, the FASB voted and approved proposed changes to the effective date of this ASU for smaller reporting companies, such as the Bancorp, and other non-SEC reporting entities. The approval changed the effective date of the ASU to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal periods. The new credit loss guidance will be effective for the Bancorp's year ending December 31, 2023. Upon adoption, the ASU will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. Early adoption for all institutions is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is in the process of evaluating the impact adoption of this update will have on the Bancorp’s consolidated financial statements. This process of evaluation has engaged multiple areas of the Bancorp’s management in discussing loss estimation methods and the application of these methods to specific segments of the loans receivable portfolio. Management has been actively monitoring developments and evaluating the use of different methods allowed. Due to continuing development of understanding of application, additional time is required to understand how this ASU will affect the Bancorp’s financial statements. Management plans on running parallel calculations during the year and finalizing a method or methods of adoption in time for the effective date.

Note 13 – Derivative Financial Instruments

The Bancorp has certain interest rate derivative positions that are not designated as hedging instruments. Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and do not take into account the effects of master netting agreements. Master netting agreements allow the Bancorp to settle all derivative contracts held with a single counterparty on a net basis, and to offset net derivative positions with related collateral, where applicable. These derivative positions relate to transactions in which the Bancorp enters into an interest rate swap with a client while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with another financial institution. In connection with each transaction, the Bancorp agrees to pay interest to the client on a notional amount at a variable interest rate and receive interest from the client on the same notional amount at a fixed interest rate. At the same time, the Bancorp agrees to pay another financial institution the same fixed interest rate on the same notional amount and receive the same variable interest rate on the same notional amount. The transaction allows the client to effectively convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate. Because the terms of the swaps with the customers and the other financial institutions offset each other, with the only difference being counterparty credit risk, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts are not materially different and do not significantly impact the Bancorp’s results of operations.

The Bancorp enters into commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (i.e., interest rate lock commitment). The interest rate lock commitments are considered derivatives and are recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging.

Note 14 - Fair Value

The Fair Value Measurements Topic establishes a hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Topic describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

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 fair values of securities available-for-sale are determined on a recurring basis by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or pricing models utilizing significant observable inputs such as matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities. Different judgments and assumptions used in pricing could result in different estimates of value. In certain cases where market data is not readily available because of a lack of market activity or little public disclosure, values may be based on unobservable inputs and classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

At the end of each reporting period, securities held in the investment portfolio are evaluated on an individual security level for other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with GAAP. Impairment is other-than-temporary if the decline in the fair value is below its amortized cost and it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of a debt security will not be received. Significant judgments are required in determining impairment, which include making assumptions regarding the estimated prepayments, loss assumptions and the change in interest rates. The Bancorp considers the following factors when determining an other-than-temporary impairment for a security: the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than amortized cost; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; the underlying fundamentals of the relevant market and the outlook for such market for the near future; an assessment of whether the Bancorp (1) has the intent to sell the debt securities or (2) more likely than not will be required to sell the debt securities before their anticipated market recovery. If either of these conditions is met, management will recognize other-than-temporary impairment. If, in management’s judgment, an other-than-temporary impairment exists, the cost basis of the security will be written down for the credit loss, and the unrealized loss will be transferred from accumulated other comprehensive loss as an immediate reduction of current earnings.

The Bancorp’s management utilizes a specialist to perform an other-than-temporary impairment analysis for each of its pooled trust preferred securities. The analysis is performed semi-annually during June and December and utilizes analytical models used to project future cash flows for the pooled trust preferred securities based on current assumptions for prepayments, default and deferral rates, and recoveries. The projected cash flows are then tested for impairment consistent with GAAP. The other-than-temporary impairment testing compares the present value of the cash flows from quarter to quarter to determine if there is a “favorable” or “adverse” change. Other-than-temporary impairment is recorded if the projected present value of cash flows is lower than the book value of the security. To perform the semi-annual other-than-temporary impairment analysis, management utilizes current reports issued by the trustee, which contain principal and interest tests, waterfall distributions, note valuations, collection detail and credit ratings for each pooled trust preferred security. In addition, a detailed review of the performing collateral was performed. Based on current market conditions and a review of the trustee reports, management performed an analysis of the pooled trust preferred securities and no additional impairment was taken at June 30, 2020. A specialist will be used to review all pooled trust preferred securities again at December 31, 2020.

The table below shows the credit loss roll forward on a year-to-date basis for the Bancorp’s pooled trust preferred securities that have been classified with other-than-temporary impairment:

	(Dollars in Thousands)

(Dollars in thousands)	impairment
Ending balance, December 31, 2019	$	173

Ending balance, September 30, 2020	$	173

At September 30, 2020, trust preferred securities with a cost basis of $2.2 million continue to be in “payment in kind” status. These trust preferred securities classified as “payment in kind” are a result of not receiving the scheduled quarterly interest payments. For these trust preferred securities in “payment in kind” status, management anticipates to receive the unpaid contractual interest payments from the issuer, because of the self-correcting cash flow waterfall provisions within the structure of the securities. When a tranche senior to the Bancorp’s position fails the coverage test, the Bancorp’s interest cash flows are paid to the senior tranche and recorded as a reduction of principal. The coverage test represents an over collateralization target by stating the balance of the performing collateral as a percentage of the balance of the Bancorp’s tranche, plus the balance of all senior tranches. The principal reduction in the senior tranche continues until the appropriate coverage test is passed. As a result of the principal reduction in the senior tranche, more cash is available for future payments to the Bancorp’s tranche. Consistent with GAAP, management considered the failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest payments in determining whether a credit loss existed. Management will not capitalize the “payment in kind” interest payments to the book value of the securities and will keep these securities in non-accrual status until the quarterly interest payments resume on a consistent basis.

The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses or loans for which charge-offs have been taken is generally based on a present value of cash flows or, for collateral dependent loans, based on recent real estate appraisals. Appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. The recorded investment in impaired loans was approximately $12.3 million and the related specific reserves totaled approximately $1.3 million, resulting in a fair value of impaired loans totaling approximately $11.0 million, at September 30, 2020. The recorded investment of impaired loans was approximately $7.2 million and the related specific reserves totaled approximately $166 thousand, resulting in a fair value of impaired loans totaling approximately $7.1 million, at December 31, 2019. Fair value is determined, where possible, using market prices derived from an appraisal or evaluation, which are considered to be Level 2 inputs. However, certain assumptions and unobservable inputs are often used by the appraiser, therefore, qualifying the assets as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of foreclosed real estate is similarly determined by using the results of recent real estate appraisals. The numerical range of unobservable inputs for these valuation assumptions is not meaningful to this presentation.

The following table shows carrying values and related estimated fair values of financial instruments as of the dates indicated. Estimated fair values are further categorized by the inputs used to measure fair value. Items that are not financial instruments are not included.

The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments presented in the preceding table for the periods ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Cash and cash equivalent carrying amounts approximate fair value. Certificates of deposits in other financial institutions carrying amounts approximate fair value (Level 2). The fair values of securities available-for-sale are obtained from broker pricing (Level 2), with the exception of collateralized debt obligations, which are valued by a third-party specialist (Level 3). Loans held-for-sale comprise residential mortgages and are priced based on values established by the secondary mortgage markets (Level 1). The estimated fair value for net loans receivable is based on the exit price notion which is the exchange price that would be received to transfer the loans at the most advantageous market price in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date (Level 3). Federal Home Loan Bank stock is estimated at book value due to restrictions that limit the sale or transfer of the security. Interest rate swap agreements, both assets and liabilities, are valued by a third-party pricing agent using an income approach (Level 2). Fair values of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate book value, as the carrying values are determined using the observable interest rate, balance, and last payment date.

Non-interest and interest bearing deposits, which include checking, savings, and money market deposits, are estimated to have fair values based on the amount payable as of the reporting date (Level 1). The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit (included in interest bearing deposits) are based on estimates of the rate the Bancorp would pay on similar deposits, applied for the time period until maturity (Level 2). Estimated fair values for short-term repurchase agreements, which represent sweeps from demand deposits to accounts secured by pledged securities, are estimated based on the amount payable as of the reporting date (Level 1). Longer-term repurchase agreements, with contractual maturity dates of three months or more, are based on estimates of the rate the Bancorp would pay on similar deposits, applied for the time period until maturity (Level 2). Short-term borrowings are generally only held overnight, therefore, their carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value (Level 1). The fair value of FHLB Advances are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using quoted rates from the FHLB for similar advances with similar maturities (Level 2). The estimated fair value of other financial instruments, and off-balance sheet loan commitments, approximate cost and are not considered significant to this presentation.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Summary

NorthWest Indiana Bancorp (the “Bancorp”) is a financial holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Peoples Bank (“the Bank”), an Indiana commercial bank, and NWIN Risk Management, Inc., a captive insurance company, are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Bancorp. The Bank (which was formerly known as Peoples Bank SB) converted from an Indiana-chartered stock savings bank to an Indiana-chartered commercial bank effective May 22, 2020. The Bancorp has no other business activity other than being a holding company for the Bank and NWIN Risk Management, Inc. The following management’s discussion and analysis presents information concerning our financial condition as of September 30, 2020, as compared to December 31, 2019, and the results of operations for the quarter and nine months ending September 30, 2020, and September 30, 2019. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other financial data presented elsewhere herein and with the financial statements and other financial data, as well as the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

At September 30, 2020, the Bancorp had total assets of $1.5 billion, total loans receivable of $975.9 million and total deposits of $1.3 billion. Stockholders' equity totaled $148.9 million or 10.1% of total assets, with a book value per share of $43.01. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, was $4.9 million, or $1.42 earnings per common share for both basic and diluted calculations. For the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the return on average assets (ROA) was 1.33%, while the return on average stockholders’ equity (ROE) was 13.42%. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $13.2 million, or $3.80 earnings per common share for both basic and diluted calculations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the ROA was 1.25%, while the ROE was 12.43%.

Recent Developments

COVID-19

In December 2019, COVID-19 was reported in China, and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic. On March 12, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States a national emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant economic dislocation in the United States as many state and local governments ordered non-essential businesses to close and residents to shelter in place at home. While many of these measures have been lifted or eased since the beginning of the pandemic and economic growth is beginning to recover, the pandemic resulted in an unprecedented slow-down in economic activity and a related increase in unemployment. Since the COVID-19 outbreak,the stock markets have experienced high levels of volatility at times and, in particular, many bank stocks have declined in value. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Federal Reserve Board has reduced the benchmark federal funds rate to a target range of 0% to 0.25%, and the yields on 10- and 30-year treasury notes have declined to historic lows. Various state governments and federal agencies are encouraging lenders to provide forbearance and other relief to borrowers (e.g., waiving late payment and other fees). The federal banking agencies have encouraged financial institutions to prudently work with affected borrowers and recently passed legislation has provided relief from reporting loan classifications due to modifications related to the COVID-19 outbreak. Certain industries have been particularly hard-hit, including the travel and hospitality, restaurant, and retail industries.

In addition, the spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices, including remote employee work locations, restrictions on employee travel, mask and social distancing guidelines for our employees, and the cancellation or postponement of physical participation in meetings, events, and conferences. We may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by COVID-19 or will otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities and regulators.

Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated and when and how the economy may be fully reopened in our market areas.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a significant effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations:

●

Demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income.

●

If the economies in the Bank’s market areas are unable to fully reopen, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased provisions for loan losses, charge-offs, and reduced income.

●

Collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase.

●

The Bank’s allowance for loan losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties beyond forbearance periods, which will adversely affect our net income.

●

The net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to the Bank.

●

As a result of the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread, and correspondingly reducing our net income.

●

A material decrease in net income or a net loss over several quarters could result in a decrease in the rate of our quarterly cash dividend.

●

Our wealth management revenues may decline with continuing market volatility.

●

We rely on third party vendors for certain critical services, and the unavailability of a critical service due to the COVID-19 outbreak could have an adverse effect on the Bank.

●

FDIC premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs.

Moreover, our future success and profitability substantially depends on the management skills of our executive officers and directors, many of whom have held officer and director positions with the Bancorp and the Bank for many years. The Bancorp has put in place measures such as remote work to protect the health and safety of our employees. The unanticipated loss or unavailability of key employees due to the outbreak could harm our ability to operate our business or execute our business strategy. However, the Bancorp has an appropriate emergency succession plan in place, which is reviewed and approved annually by the Bancorp’s Board of Directors.

Any one or a combination of the factors identified above may remain prevalent for a significant period of time and could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided.

The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak impacts our business, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can fully resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, we may continue to experience significant impacts to our business as a result of the virus’s regional, national, and global economic impact, including the availability of credit, adverse impacts on our liquidity, and any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the outbreak is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of the impacts on our business, our operations or the global economy as a whole. That being said, we believe the Bancorp and the Bank are well prepared for the economic and social consequences of the COVID-19 global pandemic.

Impacts of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic began to impact the Bancorp’s operations during March 2020, and as of the date of this report, continues to influence operating decisions. In response to the pandemic, the Bancorp’s management implemented the following policy actions:

●

Participating in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program , a program initiated to help small businesses maintain their workforce during the pandemic. As of September 30, 2020, the Bancorp approved 782 applications totaling $91.5 million, with an average loan size of approximately $117,000. These loans will help local business owners retain 10,758 employees based on the borrower’s applications. The Bancorp’s SBA lender fee is averaging approximately 3.80% for this program, and fees will be earned over the life of the associated loan.

●

Prudently helping borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations because of the effects of COVID-19. Consistent with regulatory guidance, the Bancorp will consider deferring or modifying a loan customer’s repayment obligation if the customer’s cash flow has been negatively impacted by the pandemic. The Bancorp’s management anticipates that additional borrower deferral and modification requests will continue during the remainder of 2020 Loans modified to interest only payment or full payment deferral as part of the effects of COVID-19 as of September 30, 2020, are as follows:

(Dollars in thousands)	(Unaudited)
As of September 30, 2020	Mortgage loans				Commercial Loans
	Number of Loans		Recorded Investment		Number of Loans		Recorded Investment
Interest only payment		38	$	4,399		5	$	2,021
Full payment deferral		3		260		3		6,330
Total $		41	$	4,659		8	$	8,351

●

As the Bancorp continues to monitor the borrowers that are in and outside of deferral status, some loan relationships may be deemed non-performing. As of September 30, 2020, a single large commercial real estate loan relationship, which operates a hotel, with a carrying balance of $5.3 million, came out of deferral and was deemed non-performing because of the COVID-19 pandemic stresses. Through management’s review of the loan relationship, a specific reserve within the allowance for loan losses was allocated as of September 30, 2020. No other COVID-19 impacted loans that have come out of deferral have been deemed non-performing at this time. As of September 30, 2020, a total of 169 loans have come out of COVID-19 related deferral status and continue to be performing with carrying balances of $68.8 million.

●

Commercial real estate loans are one of the Bancorp’s primary loan concentrations. Key loan data for commercial real estate loans secured by restaurants, hotels, and retail non-owner occupied properties indicate a strong weighted average loan-to-value and debt service coverage. As of September 30, 2020, commercial real estate loans secured by restaurants totaled $22.1 million and represented 8% of the commercial real estate portfolio, and had a weighted average debt coverage ratio of 1.57 and loan to value of 49%. The restaurant portfolio is comprised of 46% quick service and fast casual loan balances. As of September 30, 2020, commercial real estate loans secured by hotels totaled $23.8 million and represented 8% of the commercial real estate portfolio, and had a weighted average debt coverage ratio of 1.40 and loan to value of 70%. The hotel portfolio is comprised of 89% flagged hotel loan balances. As of September 30, 2020, commercial real estate loans secured by retail non-owner occupied properties totaled $59.5 million and represented 21% of the commercial real estate portfolio and had a weighted average debt coverage of 1.55 and loan to value of 54%.

●

Maintaining a strong liquidity position to support funding demand. The Bancorp has sufficient on balance sheet liquidity and contingent liquidity sources to meet funding demand.

●

Implementing remote working policies for the Bancorp’s workforce. 142 employees or 50% of the workforce have been provided remote work capabilities to support social distancing measures.

●

Keeping the Bancorp’s 22 banking centers open during the pandemic. To ensure banking processes run efficiently, drive-ups are open and fully functional, and a wide range of digital banking options are available. All banking centers lobbies are also available to serve customers, however we are requesting that they make appointments via the Bank’s website to help us adhere to social distancing guidelines.

U.S. Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program

The Bank has participated in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), which was initiated on April 3, 2020 in order to help small businesses maintain their workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Bank began accepting applications from qualified business customers immediately upon the initiation of the PPP. Under the PPP, borrowers who use the funds for payroll and certain other expenses are eligible to have the loan balances forgiven by the SBA. Applications for forgiveness can be submitted to the Bank beginning eight weeks after loan disbursement. The PPP loans carry a fixed interest rate of 1.0% and a term of two years (for loans made before June 5, 2020) or five years (for loans made on or after June 5, 2020), if not forgiven, in whole or in part, and are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. Payments are deferred until either the date on which the SBA remits the amount of forgiveness proceeds to the Bank or the date that is nine months after the last day of the covered period if the borrower does not apply for forgiveness within that 10 month period. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank approved 782 applications totaling $91.5 million in loan requests, with an average loan size of approximately $117,000. The Bank began closing and funding PPP loans late during the week of April 6, 2020. These loans are expected to help local business owners retain 10,758 employees. We expect the majority of the PPP loans we have originated to qualify for and will have applied for forgiveness from the SBA by December 31, 2020. This expectation is subject to change due to borrower behavior, changing SBA requirements and processes related to loan forgiveness, and other relevant factors. The Bank is a certified SBA lender and was one of the first local banks to fund loans under the PPP. The PPP expired on August 8, 2020.

SBA Loan Subsidy Program

Pursuant to the CARES Act, Section 1112, Congress has determined that all existing borrowers under the SBA Section 7(a) program are adversely affected by COVID-19, and are therefore entitled to a subsidy in the form of relief payments. Specifically, the CARES Act provides that the SBA will pay the principal and interest on any existing and current SBA 7(a) loan for a period of nine months. These principal and interest payments will be made by the SBA directly to the SBA 7(a) lender and will begin with the next payment due. The Bancorp is a qualified SBA Section 7(a) lender, and is participating in the Section 1112 program. As of September 30, 2020, the Bancorp had 50 loans eligible for the program, with an aggregate principal amount of $9.4 million. Payments under the program will not constitute new loans for the Bancorp, but simply payments of principal and interest on loans that already exist in the Bancorp’s SBA 7(a) loan portfolio and are current on borrower payments. The Bancorp received its first tranche of payments under the program on April 30, 2020, and expects to receive subsequent payments from the SBA by the 25th of each month thereafter until the expiration of the six-month program period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, total assets increased by $152.3 million (11.5%), with interest-earning assets increasing by $158.0 million (12.9%). At September 30, 2020, interest-earning assets totaled $1.4 billion compared to $1.2 billion at December 31, 2019. Earning assets represented 93.2% of total assets at September 30, 2020 and 92.0% of total assets at December 31, 2019. The increase in total assets and interest earning assets for the nine months was primarily the result of the Bancorp’s participation in the PPP, and increased cash balances related to strong core deposit growth.

Net loans receivable totaled $975.9 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $906.9 million at December 31, 2019. The loan portfolio, which is the Bancorp’s largest asset, is the primary source of both interest and fee income. The Bancorp’s lending strategy emphasizes quality loan growth, product diversification, and competitive and profitable pricing. The Bancorp continues to review its loan pipelines and credit product specifications in connection with the effects on economic activity and employment stemming from the COVID-19 global pandemic. As a result of this review, management believes the Bancorp’s loan portfolio and current pipelines are well-positioned to withstand the current effects of the pandemic and address the needs of the Bancorp’s customers

The Bancorp is primarily a portfolio lender. Mortgage banking activities historically have been limited to the sale of fixed rate mortgage loans with contractual maturities greater than 15 years. These loans are identified as held for sale when originated and sold, on a loan-by-loan basis, in the secondary market. The Bancorp will also retain fixed rate mortgage loans with a contractual maturity greater than 15 years on a limited basis. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Bancorp originated $171.2 million in new fixed rate mortgage loans for sale, compared to $54.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in originations of these fixed rate mortgage loans was due to the low interest rate environment and new purchase, and customer preferences to refinance existing mortgages to lower rates. Net gains realized from the mortgage loan sales totaled $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. At September 30, 2020, the Bancorp had $5.5 million in loans that were classified as held for sale, compared to $6.1 million at December 31, 2019.

Non-performing loans include those loans that are 90 days or more past due and those loans that have been placed on non-accrual status. At September 30, 2020, non-performing loans that remained accruing and more than 90 days past due include two construction and land development loans totaling $345 thousand and one commercial busness loan totaling $234 thousand. The Bancorp will at times leave notes accruing, despite being over 90 days past due, for short periods of time when management has reason to believe payments are in process of being received.

The Bancorp's nonperforming loans are summarized below:

Substandard loans include potential problem loans, where information about possible credit issues or other conditions causes management to question the ability of such borrowers to comply with loan covenants or repayment terms. No loans were internally classified as doubtful or loss at September 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

In addition to identifying and monitoring non-performing and other classified loans, management maintains a list of special mention loans. Special mention loans represent loans management is closely monitoring due to one or more factors that may cause the loan to become classified as substandard.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a borrower will be unable to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Typically, management does not individually classify smaller-balance homogeneous loans, such as residential mortgages or consumer loans, as impaired, unless they are troubled debt restructurings.

Purchased loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date. Purchased loans with evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination are considered purchased credit impaired loans. Expected future cash flows at the purchase date in excess of the fair value of loans are recorded as interest income over the life of the loans if the timing and amount of the future cash flows is reasonably estimable (“accretable yield”). The difference between contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the non-accretable difference and represents probable losses in the portfolio. In determining the acquisition date fair value of purchased credit impaired loans, and in subsequent accounting, the Bancorp aggregates these purchased loans into pools of loans by common risk characteristics, such as credit risk rating and loan type. Subsequent to the purchase date, increases in cash flows over those expected at the purchase date are recognized as interest income prospectively. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in a provision for loan losses.

The Bancorp's impaired loans, including purchased credit impaired loans, are summarized below:

At times, the Bancorp will modify the terms of a loan to forego a portion of interest or principal or reduce the interest rate on the loan to a rate materially less than market rates, or materially extend the maturity date of a loan as part of a troubled debt restructuring. The valuation basis for the Bancorp’s troubled debt restructurings is based on the present value of expected future cash flows; unless consistent cash flows are not present, then the fair value of the collateral securing the loan is the basis for valuation.

The Bancorp's troubled debt restructured loans are summarized below:

The decrease in the troubled debt restructure loans reflected in the table above for the nine months ending September 30, 2020, was the result of one commercial business loan totaling $44 thousand which was charged off and payment reductions for various commercial business loans totaling $92 thousand. Offsetting the overall decline in troubled debt restructure loans was one commercial real estate loan totaling $145 thousand, one residential loan totaling $51 thousand and one home equity loan totaling $23 thousand which were renewed as a new troubled debt restructurings. The new troubled debt restructuring loans along with one commercial real estate customer with loans totaling $5.3 million, see above in Impacts of COVID-19 section for further disclosure on this loan, one commercial business relationship with loans totaling $394 thousand, and three commercial business customers with loans totaling $384 thousand contributed to the increase in impaired loans.

One commercial real estate customer with loans totaling $5.3 million, see above in Impacts of COVID-19 section for further disclosure on this loan, and residential real estate loans totaling $2.7 million contributed to the September 30, 2020, increase in nonperforming loans. One commercial real estate customer with loans totaling $5.3 million, residential real estate loans totaling $2.6 million and one commercial real estate customer with loans totaling $1.3 million contributed to the September 30, 2020, increase in substandard loans. One commercial real estate relationship with loans totaling $4.1 million and one commercial real estate customer with loans totaling $1.1 million contributed to the September 30, 2020, increase in watch loans, which was offset by the movement of one commercial real estate customer with loans totaling $5.3 million to substandard. One commercial real estate customer with loans totaling $5.3 million, one commercial business relationship with loans totaling $394 thousand, and three commercial business customers with loans totaling $384 thousand contributed to the September 30, 2020, increase in impaired loans.

At September 30, 2020, management is of the opinion that there are no loans, except certain of those discussed above or as part of credit risk impacts of COVID-19, where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms and which will imminently result in such loans being classified as past due, non-accrual or a troubled debt restructure. Management does not presently anticipate that any of the non-performing loans or classified loans would materially affect future operations, liquidity or capital resources.

The allowance for loan losses (ALL) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs net of recoveries. A loan is charged-off against the allowance by management as a loss when deemed uncollectible, although collection efforts continue and future recoveries may occur. The determination of the amounts of the ALL and provisions for loan losses is based on management’s current judgments about the credit quality of the loan portfolio with consideration given to all known relevant internal and external factors that affect loan collectability as of the reporting date. The appropriateness of the current period provision and the overall adequacy of the ALL are determined through a disciplined and consistently applied quarterly process that reviews the Bancorp’s current credit risk within the loan portfolio and identifies the required allowance for loan losses given the current risk estimates.

The Bancorp's provision for loan losses for the nine months ended are summarized below:

The ALL provisions take into consideration management’s current judgments about the credit quality of the loan portfolio, loan portfolio balances, changes in the portfolio mix and local economic conditions. In determining the provision for loan losses for the current period, management has considered risks associated with the local economy, changes in loan balances and mix, and asset quality.

In addition, management considers reserves that are not part of the ALL that have been established from acquisition activity. The Bancorp acquired loans for which there was evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination and it was determined that it was probable that the Bancorp would be unable to collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. At September 30, 2020, total purchased credit impaired loans reserves totaled $2.1 million compared to $2.2 million at December 31, 2019. Additionally, the Bancorp has acquired loans where there was not evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination and has marked these loans to their fair values. As part of the fair value of loans receivable, a net fair value discount was established for loans acquired of $2.5 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $3.8 million at December 31, 2019. Details on these fair value marks and the additional reserves created can be found in Note 5, Loans Receivable.

The Bancorp's allowance to total loans and non-performing loans are summarized below:

The Bancorp has included the above non-GAAP measures to help investors evaluate the allowance for loan loss once adjusted for purchased fair value marks and additional reserves, and also adjused for PPP loans that are fully guaranteed by the SBA.

The September 30, 2020, balance in the ALL account is considered adequate by management after evaluation of the loan portfolio, past experience, current economic and market conditions, and additional reserves from acquisition accounting as described in the immediately preceding paragraph. While management may periodically allocate portions of the allowance for specific problem loans, the whole allowance is available for any loan charge offs that occur. The allocation of the ALL reflects performance and growth trends within the various loan categories, as well as consideration of the facts and circumstances that affect the repayment of individual loans, and loans which have been pooled as of the evaluation date, with particular attention given to non-performing loans and loans which have been classified as substandard, doubtful or loss. Management has allocated reserves to both performing and non-performing loans based on current information available.

At September 30, 2020, foreclosed real estate totaled $501 thousand, which was comprised of twelve properties, compared to $1.1 million and seventeen properties at December 31, 2019. Net gains from the sale of foreclosed real estate totaled $127 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. At the end of September 2020, all of the Bancorp’s foreclosed real estate is located within its primary market area.

The primary objective of the Bancorp’s investment portfolio is to provide for the liquidity needs of the Bancorp and to contribute to profitability by providing a stable flow of dependable earnings. Funds are generally invested in federal funds, interest bearing balances in other financial institutions, U.S. government securities, federal agency obligations, obligations of state and local municipalities and corporate securities. The securities portfolio, all of which is designated as available-for-sale, totaled $324.2 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $277.2 million at December 31, 2019, an increase of $47.0 million (16.9%). The increase in the securities portfolio during the year is a result of investment in the security portfolio and market value adjustments. At September 30, 2020, the securities portfolio represented 23.5% of interest-earning assets and 21.9% of total assets compared to 22.7% of interest-earning assets and 20.9% of total assets at December 31, 2019.

The net increase in interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions, fed funds sold, and certificates of deposit in other financial institutions is primarily the result of the Bancorp’s participation in the PPP and customer’s current preference toward security and liquidity of assets.

Deposits are a fundamental and cost-effective source of funds for lending and other investment purposes. The Bancorp offers a variety of products designed to attract and retain customers, with the primary focus on building and expanding relationships.

The overall increase in total deposits is primarily the result of management’s sales efforts, deposits gained through the participation in the PPP, along with customer loyalty to the Bancorp and preferences for the security the deposit products offer.

The Bancorp’s borrowed funds are primarily used to fund asset growth not supported by deposit generation. The Bancorp’s end-of-period borrowing balances were as follows:

Repurchase agreements increased as part of normal account fluctuations within that product line. Borrowed funds decreased as FHLB advances were paid down and matured during the quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the Bancorp, liquidity management refers to the ability to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand, meet deposit withdrawals, and pay dividends and operating expenses. Because profit and liquidity are often conflicting objectives, management attempts to maximize the Bank’s net interest margin by making adequate, but not excessive, liquidity provisions. Furthermore, funds are managed so that future profits will not be significantly impacted as funding costs increase.

Changes in the liquidity position result from operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flows from operating activities are generally the cash effects of transactions and other events that enter into the determination of net income. The primary investing activities include loan originations, loan repayments, investments in interest bearing balances in other financial institutions, and the purchase, sale, and maturity of investment securities. Financing activities focus almost entirely on the generation of customer deposits. In addition, the Bancorp utilizes borrowings (i.e., repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and federal funds purchased) as a source of funds.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, cash and cash equivalents increased by $37.2 million compared to a $54.8 million increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The primary sources of cash and cash equivalents were the proceeds from the sale of loans originated for sale, growth of deposits, proceeds and paydown of securities, and proceeds from sales of securities. The primary uses of cash and cash equivalents were origination of loans for sale, purchase of securities, other loan originations, and purchase of loan participations. Cash provided by operating activities totaled $20.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to cash provided of $10.9 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2019. Cash provided from operating activities was primarily a result of net income, change in accrued expenses and liabilities, sale of loans originated for sale, and depreciation and amortization, net of accretion, offset by the origination of loans for sale and gain on sale of loans held-for-sale. Cash outflows from investing activities totaled $111.8 million for the current period, compared to cash outflows of $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Cash outflows from investing activities for the current nine months were primarily related to the purchase of securities available-for-sale, origination of loans, and purchase of loan participations, offset against the proceeds from the maturity, paydown, and sale of available-for-sale securities. Cash provided from financing activities totaled $128.7 million during the current period compared to net cash provided of $51.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The cash inflows from financing activities were primarily a result of net change in deposits and change in other borrowed funds, offset against repayment of FHLB advances and payment of quarterly dividends. On a cash basis, the Bancorp paid dividends on common stock of $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

At September 30, 2020, outstanding commitments to fund loans totaled $229.3 million. Approximately 56.8% of the commitments were at variable rates. Standby letters of credit, which are conditional commitments issued by the Bancorp to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party, totaled $10.9 million at September 30, 2020. Management believes that the Bancorp has sufficient cash flow and borrowing capacity to fund all outstanding commitments and letters of credit, while maintaining proper levels of liquidity.

Management strongly believes that maintaining a high level of capital enhances safety and soundness. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, stockholders' equity increased by $14.8 million (11.1%). During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, stockholders’ equity was primarily increased by net income of $13.2 million and increased unrealized gains on available securities of $4.7 million. Decreasing stockholders’ equity was the declaration of $3.2 million in cash dividends. On April 24, 2014 the Bancorp’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to 50,000 shares of the Bancorp’s outstanding common stock, from time to time and subject to market conditions, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The stock repurchase program does not expire and is only limited by the number of shares that can be purchased. The stock repurchase program will be reviewed annually by the Board of Directors. No shares were repurchased under the program during the first nine months of 2020 or 2019. During 2020, 6,400 restricted stock shares vested under the Incentive Plan outlined in Note 10 of the financial statements, of which 1,904 of these shares were withheld in the form of a net surrender to cover the withholding tax obligations of the vesting employees. The repurchase of these surrendered shares is considered outside of the scope of the formal stock repurchase program.

The Bancorp is subject to risk-based capital guidelines adopted by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”), and the Bank is subject to risk-based capital guidelines adopted by the FDIC. As applied to the Bancorp and the Bank, the FRB and FDIC capital requirements are substantially the same. These regulations divide capital into multiple tiers. The first tier (Common Equity Tier 1 Capital) includes common shareholders’ equity, after deductions for various items including goodwill and certain other intangible assets, and after certain other adjustments. Common Equity Tier 1 Capital also includes accumulated other comprehensive income (for organizations that do not make opt-out elections). The next tier (Tier 1 Capital) is comprised of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital plus other qualifying capital instruments such as perpetual noncumulative preferred stock and junior subordinated debt issued to trusts, and other adjustments. The third tier (Tier 2 Capital) includes instruments such as subordinated debt that have a minimum original maturity of at least five years and are subordinated to the claims of depositors and general creditors, total capital minority interest not included in Tier 1 Capital, and limited amounts of the allowance for loan losses, less applicable regulatory adjustments and deductions. The Bancorp and the Bank are required to maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 6%, and a Total Capital ratio (comprised of Tier 1 Capital plus Tier 2 Capital) of 8%. In addition, the capital regulations provide for a minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to adjusted average assets) of 4%.

In addition to establishing the minimum regulatory capital requirements, the regulations limit capital distributions by the institution and certain discretionary bonus payments to management if an institution does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets above the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements. The capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increased each year until the buffer requirement became fully effective on January 1, 2019.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 required the FRB to set minimum capital levels for bank holding companies that are as stringent as those required for insured depository subsidiaries. However, under the FRB’s “Small Bank Holding Company” exemption from consolidated bank holding company capital requirements, bank holding companies and savings and loan holding companies with less than $3 billion in consolidated assets, such as the Bancorp, are exempt from consolidated regulatory capital requirements, unless the FRB determines otherwise in particular cases.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Bancorp’s and Bank’s regulatory capital ratios continued to be negatively impacted by regulatory requirements regarding collateralized debt obligations. The regulatory requirements state that for collateralized debt obligations that have been downgraded below investment grade by the rating agencies, increased risk based asset weightings are required. The Bancorp currently holds pooled trust preferred securities with a cost basis of $2.2 million. These investments currently have ratings that are below investment grade. As a result, approximately $10.4 million of risk-based assets are generated by the trust preferred securities in the Bancorp’s and Bank’s total risk based capital calculation.

The following table shows that, at September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Bancorp’s capital exceeded all applicable regulatory capital requirements. The dollar amounts are in millions.

The Bancorp’s ability to pay dividends to its shareholders is primarily dependent upon the Bank’s ability to pay dividends to the Bancorp. Under Indiana law, the Bank may pay dividends from its undivided profits (generally, earnings less losses, bad debts, taxes and other operating expenses) as is considered expedient by the Bank’s Board of Directors. However, the Bank must obtain the approval of the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) if the total of all dividends declared by the Bank during the current year, including the proposed dividend, would exceed the sum of retained net income for the year to date plus its retained net income for the previous two years. For this purpose, “retained net income,” means net income as calculated for call report purposes, less all dividends declared for the applicable period. An exemption from DFI approval would require that the Bank have been assigned a composite uniform financial institutions rating of 1 or 2 as a result of the most recent federal or state examination; the proposed dividend would not result in a Tier 1 leverage ratio below 7.5%; and that the Bank not be subject to any corrective action, supervisory order, supervisory agreement, or board approved operating agreement. The aggregate amount of dividends that may be declared by the Bank in 2020, without the need for qualifying for an exemption or prior DFI approval, is its 2020 net profits. Moreover, the FDIC and the FRB may prohibit the payment of dividends if it determines that the payment of dividends would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice in light of the financial condition of the Bank. On August 28, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Bancorp declared a third quarter dividend of $0.31 per share. The Bancorp’s third quarter dividend was paid to shareholders on October 2, 2020.

Results of Operations - Comparison of the Quarter Ended September 30, 2020 to the Quarter Ended September 30, 2019

For the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Bancorp reported net income of $4.9 million, compared to net income of $3.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $1.3 million (37.0%). For the quarter, the ROA was 1.33%, compared to 1.08% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The ROE was 13.42% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 11.05% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019.

Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was $11.7 million, an increase of $893 thousand (8.3%), compared to $10.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets was 3.75% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 4.40% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The weighted-average cost of funds for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was 0.35% compared to 0.86% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The impact of the 3.75% return on interest earning assets and the 0.35% cost of funds resulted in an interest rate spread of 3.40% for the current quarter, a decrease from the 3.54% spread for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The net interest margin on earning assets was 3.41% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and 3.56% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. On a tax equivalent basis, the Bancorp’s net interest margin was 3.53% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 3.63% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. Comparing the net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis more accurately compares the returns on tax-exempt loans and securities to those on taxable interest-earning assets.

Information relating to the average consolidated balance sheet and the yield on average earning assets and cost of average liabilities for the periods indicated are in the following table. Dividing the related interest, on an annualized basis, by the average balance of assets or liabilities drives the disclosed rates. Average balances are derived from daily balances.

The decrease in interest income for interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions was the result of lower weighted average rates for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in interest income for federal funds sold was the result of lower average balances for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in interest income for certificates of deposit in other financial institutions was the result of lower average balances and lower average rates received for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in interest income for securities available-for-sale was primarily the result of lower average rates for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in interest income for loans receivable was the result of lower weighted average rates received during quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank stock was the result of lower weighted average rates received during quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the interest expense of total deposits was the result of lower weighted average rates for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the interest expense for repurchase agreements was the result of lower weighted average rates for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the interest expense for borrowed funds was the result of lower weighted average balances for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019.

The following table shows the change in noninterest income for the quarter ending September 30, 2020, and September 30, 2019.

Other		27		39		(12	)		-30.8	%
Total noninterest income	$	4,855	$	2,897	$	1,958			67.6	%

The increase in gain on sale of loans is the result of the current economic and rate environment, which we anticipate will return to more normal levels as the current low rate environment persists or rates return to higher levels. The increase in fees and service charges is primarily the result of increased lending fees earned as part of opportunities resulting from the current economic and rate environment. The increase in wealth management income is the result of the Bancorp’s continued focus on expanding its wealth management line of business. The increase in gains on the sale of securities is a result of current market conditions and actively managing the portfolio. In the third quarter of 2019, a death benefit from bank owned life insurance was recorded, no similar events have occurred in 2020.

The following table shows the change in noninterest expense for the quarter ending September 30, 2020, and September 30, 2019.

	Quarter Ended
(Dollars in thousands)	September 30,				Quarter Ended
	2020		2019		$ Change			% Change
Noninterest expense:
Compensation and benefits	$	5,263	$	4,932	$	331			6.7	%
Occupancy and equipment		1,150		1,231		(81	)		-6.6	%

Other		2,393		2,291		102			4.5	%
Total noninterest expense	$	9,781	$	9,269	$	512			5.5	%

The increase in compensation and benefits is primarily the result of management’s continued focus on talent management and retention. The increase in federal deposit insurance premiums is the result of one-time credits received in the third quarter of 2019. The increase in other operating expenses is primarily the result of investments in strategic initiatives. The Bancorp’s efficiency ratio was 59.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 67.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The more favorable ratio for the current period is primarily attributable to the increase in noninterest income and net interest income. The efficiency ratio is determined by dividing total noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and total noninterest income for the period.

Income tax expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, totaled $1.0 million, compared to income tax expense of $351 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $659 thousand (187.7%). The combined effective federal and state tax rates for the Bancorp was 17.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to 8.9% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate for the quarter ended Sepetmber 30, 2020, is the result of lower tax preferred income relative to the increase to earnings and lower tax benefits resulting from a new market tax credit.

Results of Operations - Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Bancorp reported net income of $13.2 million, compared to net income of $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $3.3 million (34.0%). For the nine months ended, the ROA was 1.25%, compared to 1.03% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The ROE was 12.43% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 10.54% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $33.8 million, an increase of $1.2 million (3.6%), compared to $32.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets was 3.96% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 4.49% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The weighted-average cost of funds for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was 0.52% compared to 0.78% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The impact of the 3.96% return on interest earning assets and the 0.52% cost of funds resulted in an interest rate spread of 3.44% for the current nine months, which is a decrease from the spread of 3.71% as of September 30, 2019. The net interest margin on earning assets was 3.46% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 3.73% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. On a tax equivalent basis, the Bancorp’s net interest margin was 3.58% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 3.80% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Comparing the net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis more accurately compares the returns on tax-exempt loans and securities to those on taxable interest-earning assets.

The decrease in interest income for interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions was the result of lower weighted average rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in interest income for federal funds sold was primarily the result of lower weighted average balances for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in interest income for certificates of deposits in other financial institutions was primarily the result of lower average balance and lower weighted average rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in interest income for securities available-for-sale was the result of lower weighted average rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in interest income for loans receivable was the result of higher average balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the interest expense of total deposits was the result of lower weighted average rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the interest expense of repurchase agreements was the result of lower weighted average rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the interest expense of borrowed funds was the result of lower average balances for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The increase in gain on sale of loans is the result of the current economic and rate environment, which we anticipate will return to more normal levels as the current low rate environment persists or rates return to higher levels. The increase in fees and service charges is primarily the result of increased lending fees earned as part of opportunities resulting from the current economic and rate environment. The increase in wealth management income is the result of the Bancorp’s continued focus on expanding its wealth management line of business. The increase in gains on the sale of securities is a result of current market conditions and actively managing the portfolio. In the prior year, a death benefit from bank owned life insurance was recorded, no events have occurred in the first nine months of 2020. The decrease in other noninterest income is the result of a one-time fixed asset sale for a gain in the prior year.

The increase in compensation and benefits is primarily the result of management’s continued focus on talent management and retention. The increase in occupancy and equipment is primarily related to facilities improvement efforts aimed at enhancing technology and to accommodate recent growth. The decrease in data processing expense is primarily the result of prior year data conversion expenses incurred in the first quarter of 2019 related to the acquisition of AJSB. The decrease in federal deposit insurance premiums is the result of one-time credits received during 2019. The decrease in marketing is a result of the timing of the Bancorp’s marketing initiatives. The increase in other operating expenses is primarily the result of investments in strategic initiatives. The Bancorp’s efficiency ratio was 62.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 68.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The more favorable ratio for the current period is primarily attributable to the increase in noninterest income and net interest income. The efficiency ratio is determined by dividing total noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and total noninterest income for the period.

Income tax expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 totaled $2.6 million, compared to income tax expense of $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $1.0 million (65.3%). The combined effective federal and state tax rates for the Bancorp was 16.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 14.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The Bancorp’s higher current period effective tax rate is a result of a decrease in tax preferred income in relation to the increase of income.
