NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying June 30, 2019 and 2018 consolidated financial statements are unaudited. The December 31, 2018 consolidated financial statements are as reported in the First Financial Corporation (the “Corporation”) 2018 annual report. The information presented does not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The following notes should be read together with notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.


1.	Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies followed by the Corporation and its subsidiaries for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting. All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and are of a normal recurring nature. The Corporation reports financial information for only one segment, banking. Some items in the prior year financials were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

The Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan is a long-term incentive plan that was designed to align the interests of participants with the interests of shareholders. Under the plan, awards may be made based on certain performance measures. The grants are made in restricted stock units that are subject to a vesting schedule. These shares vest over 3 years in increments of 33%, 33%, and 34% respectively. For the six months ended 2019 and 2018, 19,783 and 17,220 shares were awarded, respectively. These shares had a grant date value of $841 thousand and $784 thousand for 2019 and 2018, vest over three years, and their grant is not subject to future performance measures. Outstanding shares are increased at the award date for the total shares awarded.

Modification of the terms of such loans typically include one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; or a permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan. No modification in 2019 or 2018 resulted in the permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan. Modifications involving a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan were for periods ranging from twelve months to five years. Modifications involving an extension of the maturity date were for periods ranging from twelve months to ten years. Troubled debt restructurings during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 did not result in any material charge-offs or additional provision expense.

The Corporation has no allocations of specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2019 and 2018. The Corporation has not committed to lend additional amounts as of June 30, 2019 and 2018 to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings. None of the charge-offs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were of restructurings that had occurred in the previous 12 months.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Corporation categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Corporation analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial loans, with an outstanding balance greater than $100 thousand. Any consumer loans outstanding to a borrower who had commercial loans analyzed will be similarly risk rated. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Corporation uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention: Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard: Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and debt service capacity of the borrower or of any pledged collateral. These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses which have clearly jeopardized repayment of principal and interest as originally intended. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some future loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful: Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those graded substandard, with the added characteristic that the severity of the weaknesses makes collection or liquidation in full highly questionable or improbable based upon currently existing facts, conditions, and values.

Furthermore, non-homogeneous loans which were not individually analyzed, but are 90+ days past due or on non-accrual are classified as substandard. Loans included in homogeneous pools, such as residential or consumer may be classified as substandard due to 90+ days delinquency, non-accrual status, bankruptcy, or loan restructuring.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans. Loans listed as not rated are either those with an outstanding balance less than $100 thousand or are included in groups of homogeneous loans. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans are as follows:

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The investment securities portfolio is evaluated for OTTI by segregating the portfolio into two general segments and applying the appropriate OTTI model. Investment securities are generally evaluated for OTTI under FASB ASC 320, Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. However, certain purchased beneficial interests, including non-agency mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and collateralized debt obligations, that had credit ratings at the time of purchase of below AA are evaluated using the model outlined in FASB ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.

When OTTI occurs under either model, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit loss. If an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security

Table of Contents

before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit loss, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If an entity does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period loss, the OTTI shall be separated into the amount representing the credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is determined based on the present value of cash flows expected to be collected and is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total OTTI related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment.

Gross unrealized losses on investment securities were $2.0 million as of June 30, 2019 and $15.2 million as of December 31, 2018. A majority of these losses represent negative adjustments to market value relative to the interest rate environment reflecting the increase in market rates and not losses related to the creditworthiness of the issuer. Based upon our review of the issuers, we do not believe these investments to be other than temporarily impaired. Management does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell them before their anticipated recovery.

There is one remaining collateralized debt obligations security with previously recorded OTTI but there was no additional OTTI recorded in 2019 or 2018. During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, an obligation was called, resulting in the elimination of the OTTI associated with that obligation. A recovery of previously recorded OTTI of $4.2 million was received and recognized in non-interest income for the period. In addition the Corporation received $2.4 million of interest income associated with the call.

Management has consistently used Standard & Poors pricing to value these investments. There are a number of other pricing sources available to determine fair value for these investments. These sources utilize a variety of methods to determine fair value. The result is a wide range of estimates of fair value for these securities. The Standard & Poors pricing was 83.32 while Moody Investor Service pricing was 19.62, with others falling somewhere in between. We recognize that the Standard & Poors pricing utilized is an estimate, but have been consistent in using this source and its estimate of fair value.

4.	Fair Value

FASB ASC No. 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) of 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 I 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 value of most securities available for sale is determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value

Table of Contents

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 (Level 2 inputs).

For those securities that cannot be priced using quoted market prices or observable inputs a Level 3 valuation is determined. These securities are primarily trust preferred securities, which are priced using Level 3 due to current market illiquidity and certain investments in state and municipal securities. The fair value of the trust preferred securities is obtained from a third party provider without adjustment. As described previously, management obtains values from other pricing sources to validate the Standard & Poors pricing that they currently utilize. The fair value of state and municipal obligations are derived by comparing the securities to current market rates plus an appropriate credit spread to determine an estimated value. Illiquidity spreads are then considered. Credit reviews are performed on each of the issuers. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s state and municipal obligations are credit spreads related to specific issuers. Significantly higher credit spread assumptions would result in significantly lower fair value measurement. Conversely, significantly lower credit spreads would result in a significantly higher fair value measurements.

The fair value of derivatives is based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2 inputs).

The following table presents quantitative information about recurring and non-recurring Level 3 fair value measurements at December 31, 2018.



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	Fair Value		Valuation Technique(s)	Unobservable Input(s)	Range
State and municipal obligations	$	3,135	Discounted cash flow	Discount rate Probability of default	2.64%-4.80% 0%

Impaired Loans	1,639		Sales comparison/income approach	Discount rate for age of appraisal and market conditions	0.00%-50.00%

Impaired loans disclosed in footnote 2, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of collateral, are valued at Level 3. They are carried at a fair value of $1.0 million, after a valuation allowance of $658 thousand at June 30, 2019 and at a fair value of $1.6 million, net of a valuation allowance of $737 thousand at December 31, 2018. The impact to the provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 was a $105 thousand decrease, a $79 thousand decrease and a $112 thousand increase, respectively. Other real estate owned is valued at Level 3. Other real estate owned at June 30, 2019 with a value of $498 thousand was reduced $115 thousand for fair value adjustment. At June 30, 2019 other real estate owned was comprised of $156 thousand from commercial loans and $342 thousand from residential loans. Other real estate owned at December 31, 2018 with a value of $603 thousand was reduced $598 thousand for fair value adjustment. At December 31, 2018 other real estate owned was comprised of $171 thousand from commercial loans and $432 thousand from residential loans.

Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing those loans, and is determined using several methods. Generally the fair value of real estate is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers. Appraisals for real estate generally use three methods to derive value: cost, sales or market comparison and income approach. The cost method bases value on the cost to replace current property. The market comparison evaluates the sales price of similar properties in the same market area. The income approach considers net operating income generated by the property and the investor’s required return. The final fair value is based on a reconciliation of these three approaches. If an appraisal is not available, the fair value may be determined by using a cash flow analysis, a broker’s opinion of value, the net present value of future cash flows, or an observable market price from an active market. Fair value of other real estate is based upon the current appraised values of the properties as determined by qualified licensed appraisers and the Company’s judgment of other relevant market conditions. Appraisals are obtained annually and reductions in value are recorded as a valuation through a charge to expense. The primary unobservable input used by management in estimating fair value are additional discounts to the appraised value to consider market conditions and the age of the appraisal, which are based on management’s past experience in resolving these types of properties. These discounts range from 0% to 50%. Values for non-real estate collateral, such as business equipment, are based on appraisals performed by qualified licensed appraisers or the customers financial statements. Values for non real estate collateral use much higher discounts than real estate collateral. Other real estate and impaired loans carried at fair value are primarily comprised of smaller balance properties.

Table of Contents

The carrying amounts and estimated fair value of financial instruments at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, are shown below. Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, short-term borrowings, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt and variable-rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. Security fair values were described previously. For fixed-rate, non-impaired loans or deposits, variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, and for longer-term borrowings, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and considering credit risk. The valuation of impaired loans was described previously. Loan fair value estimates represent an exit price. Fair values of loans held for sale are based on market bids on the loans or similar loans. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability. Fair value of debt is based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is not considered material.

Repurchase Agreements	16,392		26,406
	$	60,492	$	69,656

The Corporation enters into sales of securities under agreements to repurchase. The amounts received under these agreements represent short-term borrowings and are reflected as a liability in the consolidated balance sheets. The securities underlying these agreements are included in investment securities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation has no control over the market value of the securities, which fluctuates due to market conditions. However, the Corporation is obligated to promptly transfer additional securities if the market value of the securities falls below the repurchase agreement price. The Corporation manages this risk by maintaining an unpledged securities portfolio that it believes is sufficient to cover a decline in the market value of the securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

Employer Contributions

First Financial Corporation previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 that it expected to contribute $1.8 million and $814 thousand respectively to its Pension Plan and ESOP and $233 thousand to the Post Retirement Health Benefits Plan in 2019. Contributions of $897 thousand have been made to the Pension Plan thus far in 2019. Contributions of $126 thousand have been made through the first six months of 2019 for the Post Retirement Health Benefits plan. No contributions have been made in 2019 for the ESOP. The Pension plan was frozen for most employees at the end of 2012 and for those employees there will be discretionary contributions to the ESOP plan and a 401K plan in place of the former Pension benefit. In the first six months of 2019 and 2018 there has been $726 thousand and $837 thousand of expense accrued for potential contributions to these alternative retirement benefit options.

7.	New accounting standards

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted:

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases. The FASB issued this ASU to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under current U.S. GAAP and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard was adopted by the Corporation on January 1, 2019. ASU 2016-02 provides for a modified retrospective transition approach requiring lessees to recognize and measure leases on the balance sheet at the beginning of either the earliest period presented or as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Corporation elected to apply ASU 2016-02 as of the beginning of the period of adoption (January 1, 2019) and did not restate comparative periods. Adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in the recognition of lease liabilities totaling $7 million and the recognition of right-of-use assets totaling $7 million as of the date of adoption. Lease liabilities and right-of-use assets are reflected in other liabilities and other assets, respectively. The initial balance sheet gross up upon adoption was primarily related to operating leases of certain real estate properties. The Corporation has no finance leases or material subleases or leasing arrangements for which it is the lessor of property or equipment. The Corporation has elected to apply the package of practical expedients allowed by the new standard under which the Corporation need not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are leases or contain leases, the Corporation need not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing lease, and the Corporation need not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. Adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not materially change the Corporation’s recognition of lease expense. See Note 11 - Leases for additional disclosures related to leases.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases - Targeted Improvements, to provide entities with relief from the costs of implementing certain aspects of the new leasing standard, ASU No. 2016-02. Specifically, under the amendments in ASU 2018-11: (1) entities may elect not to recast the comparative periods presented when transitioning to the new leasing standard, and (2) lessors may elect not to separate lease and non-lease components when certain conditions are met. The amendments have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02 (January 1, 2019 for the Corporation). The Corporation elected both transition options on January 1, 2019. ASU 2018-11 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In June 2016 ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13), was issued and requires entities to use a current expected credit loss ("CECL") model which is a new impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under this model an entity would recognize an impairment allowance equal to its current estimate of all contractual cash flows that the entity does not expect to collect from financial assets measured at amortized cost. The entity's estimate would consider relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, which will result in recognition of lifetime expected credit losses upon loan origination. ASU 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management has initiated an implementation committee to assist in assessing data and system needs for the new standard. Management anticipates the effect will be an increase to the allowance for loan losses upon adoption, however, the overall increase is uncertain at this time.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other goodwill impairment guidance will remain largely unchanged. ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Corporation is assessing ASU 2017-04 but does not expect a significant impact on its accounting and disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Among the changes, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted. Entities are also allowed to elect early adoption the eliminated or modified disclosure requirements and delay adoption of the new disclosure requirements until their effective date. As ASU No. 2018-13 only revises disclosure requirements, it will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Table of Contents

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. This ASU makes minor changes to the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension and/or other postretirement benefit plans. ASU 2018-14 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020; early adoption is permitted. As ASU 2018-14 only revises disclosure requirements, it will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In September 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. This ASU requires an entity in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. Capitalized implementation costs should be presented in the same line item on the balance sheet as amounts prepaid for the hosted service, if any (generally as an “other asset”). The capitalized costs will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement, with the amortization expense being presented in the same income statement line item as the fees paid for the hosted service. ASU 2018-15 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted. ASU 2018-15 will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.


8.	Revenue from Contracts with Customers

All of the Corporation's revenue from contracts with customers in the scope of ASC 606 is recognized within Non-Interest Income. The following table presents the Corporation's sources of Non-Interest Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Items outside the scope of ASC 606 are noted as such.

^(a)Not within the scope of ASC 606.

^(b) The Other category includes gains/(losses) on the sale of OREO for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, totaling $(20) thousand and $(6) thousand, respectively, and for the six months ended for the same periods, totaling $(40) thousand and $19 thousand, respectively, which is within the scope of ASC 606; the remaining balance is outside the scope of ASC 606.

Service charges on deposits: The Corporation earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Corporation fulfills the customer's request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Corporation satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer's account balance.

Asset management fees: The Corporation earns asset management fees from its contracts with trust customers to manage assets for investment, and/or to transact on their accounts. These fees are primarily earned over time as the Corporation provides the contracted monthly or quarterly services and are generally assessed based on a tiered scale of the market value of assets under management at month-end. Fees that are transaction based, including trade execution services, are recognized at the point in time that the transaction is executed, i.e. the trade date. Other related services provided and the fees the Corporation earns, which are based on a fixed fee schedule, are recognized when the services are rendered.

Table of Contents

Interchange income: The Corporation earns interchange fees from debit and credit cardholder transactions conducted through the payment network. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder.

Gains/Losses on sales of OREO: The Corporation records a gain or loss from the sale of OREO when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Corporation finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, the Corporation assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Corporation adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present.


9.	Acquisitions, Divestitures and FDIC Indemnification Asset

The Bank is party to a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC as a result of a 2009 acquisition. Under the loss-sharing agreement (“LSA”), the Bank will share in the losses on assets covered under the agreement (referred to as covered assets). On losses up to $29 million, the FDIC has agreed to reimburse the Bank for 80 percent of the losses. On losses exceeding $29 million, the FDIC has agreed to reimburse the Bank for 95 percent of the losses. The loss-sharing agreement is subject to following servicing procedures as specified in the agreement with the FDIC. Loans acquired that are subject to the loss-sharing agreement with the FDIC are referred to as covered loans for disclosure purposes. Since the acquisition date the Bank has been reimbursed $19.4 million for losses and carrying expenses and currently carries an immaterial balance in the indemnification asset. The balance of loans covered by the loss share agreement at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 totaled $2.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The only loans still covered by the loss share agreement are the single family loans.

FASB ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, applies to a loan with evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination, acquired by completion of a transfer for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable. FASB ASC 310-30 prohibits carrying over or creating an allowance for loan losses upon initial recognition. The carrying amount of loans accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 310-30 at June 30, 2019 and 2018 are shown in the following tables:

11.	Leases

The Corporation leases certain branches under operating leases. At June 30, 2019, the Corporation had lease liabilities totaling $6,358,000 and right-of-use assets totaling $6,364,000 related to these leases. Lease liabilities and right-of-use assets are reflected in other liabilities and other assets, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 11.8 years and the weighted average discount rate used in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was 2.92%.

The calculated amount of the lease liabilities and right-of-use assets are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Corporation's lease agreements often include one or more options to renew at the Corporation's discretion. If at lease inception, the Corporation considers the exercising of a renewal option to be reasonably certain, the Corporation will include the extended term in the calculation of the lease liability and right-of-use asset. Regarding the discount rate, the new standard requires the use of the rate implicit in the lease whenever this rate is readily determinable. As this rate is rarely determinable, the Corporation utilizes its incremental borrowing rate at lease inception, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term. For operating leases existing prior to January 1, 2019, the rate for the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019 was used.

The following table represents lease costs and other lease information. As the Corporation elected, not to separate lease and non-lease components and instead to account for them as a single lease component, the variable lease cost primarily represents variable payments such as common area maintenance and utilities.

Lease costs were as follows:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	Six Months Ended June 30, 2019
Operating lease cost	$	452
Short-term lease cost	19
Variable lease cost	42
Total lease cost	$	513

Other information:
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities	446
Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities	6,643

Future minimum payments for operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more as of June 30, 2019 were as follows:

12.	Subsequent Events

On July 29, 2019, the Corporation completed its previously announced merger with HopFed Bancorp, Inc. ("HFBC") and the merger of the Corporation's wholly owned subsidiary, First Financial Bank, N.A. ("First Financial Bank"), with HFBC's wholly owned subsidiary, Heritage Bank USA, Inc. ("Heritage Bank"). Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of HFBC may elect to receive either (or a combination of) 0.444 shares of the Corporation's common stock or $21.00 in cash for each share of HFBC common stock owned, subject to proration provisions that provide for a targeted aggregate split of 50% of HFBC shares being exchanged for the Corporation's common stock and 50% for cash. Based on the Corporation's closing price of $43.43 per share on July 26, 2019, and assuming that a shareholder received 50% stock and 50% cash, the shareholder would receive total consideration with an implied value of approximately $20.14 per share, with an aggregate transaction value of approximately $133.9 million. As of June 30, 2019, HFBC reported total assets of $934.2 million, total loans of $669.5 million, and total deposits of $735.5 million.

ITEMS 2. and 3. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

and Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The purpose of this discussion is to point out key factors in the Corporation’s recent performance compared with earlier periods. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements beginning on page three of this report. All figures are for the consolidated entities. It is presumed the readers of these financial statements and of the following narrative have previously read the Corporation’s financial statements for 2018 in the 10-K filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance, nor should they be relied upon as representing management’s views as of any subsequent date. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially include, without limitation, the Corporation’s ability to effectively execute its business plans; changes in general economic and financial market conditions; changes in interest rates; changes in the competitive environment; continuing consolidation in the financial services industry; new litigation or changes in existing litigation; losses, customer bankruptcy, claims and assessments; changes in banking regulations or other regulatory or legislative requirements affecting the Corporation’s business; and changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other regulatory agencies. Additional information concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements is available in the Corporation’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and subsequent filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Copies of these filings are available at no cost on the SEC’s Web site at www.sec.gov or on the Corporation’s Web site at www.first-online.com. Management may elect to update forward-looking statements at some future point; however, it specifically disclaims any obligation to do so.

Critical Accounting Policies

Certain of the Corporation’s accounting policies are important to the portrayal of the Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include, without limitation, changes in interest rates, in the performance of the economy or in the financial condition of borrowers. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of goodwill and valuing investment securities. See further discussion of these critical accounting policies in the 2018 Form 10-K.

Summary of Operating Results

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $12.6 million, compared to $15.3 million for the same period of 2018. Basic earnings per share decreased to $1.02 for the first quarter of 2019 compared to $1.25 for the same period in 2018. Return on Assets and Return on Equity were 1.66% and 10.67% respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 2.05% and 14.53% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $22.3

million, compared to $24.2 million for the same period of 2018. Basic earnings per share decreased to $1.81 for the first six months of 2019 compared to $1.98 for same period of 2018. Return on Assets and Return on Equity were 1.47% and 9.66% respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 1.63% and 11.61% for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

The primary components of income and expense affecting net income are discussed in the following analysis.

Net Interest Income

The Corporation's primary source of earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on loans and other investments and the interest paid for deposits and other sources of funds. Net interest income decreased $932 thousand in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $29.8 million from $30.7 million in the same period in 2018. The net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2019 is 4.33% compared to 4.58% for the same period of 2018, a 5.46% decrease. Net interest income increased $1.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $59.2 million from $58.2 million in the same

period in 2018. The net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is 4.32% compared to 4.32% for the same period in 2018. A second quarter 2018 recovery of fees on nonaccrual increased interest income $2.4 million.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $9.7 million compared to $13.0 million for the same period of 2018. Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $17.4 million compared to $21.1 million for the

Table of Contents

same period of 2018. A second quarter 2018 recovery of previous other-than-temporary impairment increased non-interest income $4.2 million in 2018.

Non-Interest Expenses

The Corporation’s non-interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 was $23.5 million compared to $22.7 million for the same period in 2018. The Corporation’s non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased by $1.3

million to $47.2 million compared to the same period in 2018.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Corporation’s provision for loan losses decreased to $230 thousand for first quarter of 2019 compared to $1.4 million for the same period of 2018. Net charge offs for the first quarter of 2019 were $940 thousand compared to $1.5 million for the same period of 2018. The provision for loan losses decreased $1.1 million to $1.7 million for the six months

ended June 30, 2019 compared to $2.8 million for the same period of 2018. Net charge offs for the first six months of 2019 decreased $780 thousand to $1.9 million compared to the same period of 2018. Based on management’s analysis of the current portfolio, an evaluation that includes consideration of historical loss experience, non-performing loans trends, and probable incurred losses on identified problem loans, management believes the allowance is adequate.

Income Tax Expense

The Corporation’s effective income tax rate for the first six months of 2019 decreased from the same period in 2018.

Non-performing Loans

Non-performing loans consist of (1) non-accrual loans on which the ultimate collectability of the full amount of interest is uncertain, (2) loans which have been renegotiated to provide for a reduction or deferral of interest or principal because of a deterioration in the financial position of the borrower, and (3) loans past due ninety days or more as to principal or interest. Non-performing loans decreased to $15.2 million at June 30, 2019 compared to $16.6 million at December 31, 2018. Nonperforming loans decreased 19.5% compared to $18.9 million as of June 30, 2018. A summary of non-performing loans at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 follows:

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity

First Financial Corporation has established risk measures, limits and policy guidelines for managing interest rate risk and liquidity. Responsibility for management of these functions resides with the Asset Liability Committee. The primary goal of the Asset Liability Committee is to maximize net interest income within the interest rate risk limits approved by the Board of Directors.

Interest Rate Risk

Management considers interest rate risk to be the Corporation’s most significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to changes in net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Consistency in the Corporation’s net interest income is largely dependent on the effective management of this risk.

The Asset Liability position is measured using sophisticated risk management tools, including earning simulation and market value of equity sensitivity analysis. These tools allow management to quantify and monitor both short-term and long-term exposure to interest rate risk. Simulation modeling measures the effects of changes in interest rates, changes in the shape of the yield curve and the effects of embedded options on net interest income. This measure projects earnings in the various environments over the next three years. It is important to note that measures of interest rate risk have limitations and are dependent on various assumptions. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely predict the impact of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, frequency and amount of interest rate changes as well as overall market conditions. The Committee has performed a thorough analysis of these assumptions and believes them to be valid and theoretically sound. These assumptions are continuously monitored for behavioral changes.

The Corporation from time to time utilizes derivatives to manage interest rate risk. Management continuously evaluates the merits of such interest rate risk products but does not anticipate the use of such products to become a major part of the Corporation’s risk management strategy.

The table below shows the Corporation’s estimated sensitivity profile as of June 30, 2019. The change in interest rates assumes a parallel shift in interest rates of 100 and 200 basis points. Given a 100 basis point increase in rates, net interest income would increase 2.45% over the next 12 months and increase 5.68% over the following 12 months. Given a 100 basis point decrease in rates, net interest income would decrease 3.86% over the next 12 months and decrease 6.87% over the following 12 months. These estimates assume all rate changes occur overnight and management takes no action as a result of this change.



Basis Point	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
Interest Rate Change	12 months		24 months		36 months
Down 200	-8.23	%	-13.59	%	-18.51	%
Down 100	-3.86		-6.87		-9.59
Up 100	2.45		5.68		8.87
Up 200	1.88		8.15		14.57

Typical rate shock analysis does not reflect management’s ability to react and thereby reduce the effect of rate changes, and represents a worst-case scenario.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity represents an institution’s ability to provide funds to satisfy demands from depositors, borrowers, and other creditors by either converting assets into cash or accessing new or existing sources of incremental funds. Generally the Corporation relies on deposits, loan repayments and repayments of investment securities as its primary sources of funds. The Corporation has $6.4 million of investments that mature throughout the next 12 months. The Corporation also anticipates $119.2 million of principal payments from mortgage-backed securities. Given the current rate environment, the Corporation anticipates $29.4 million in securities to be called within the next 12 months. The Corporation also has unused borrowing capacity available with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis and several correspondent banks. With these sources of funds, the Corporation currently anticipates adequate liquidity to meet the expected obligations of its customers.

Financial Condition

Comparing the first six months of 2019 to the same period in 2018, loans, net of deferred loan costs, have increased $82 million to $2.0 billion. Deposits increased 0.35% to $2.5 billion at June 30, 2019 compared to June 30, 2018. Shareholders' equity increased 13.9% or $58.1 million. This financial performance increased book value per share 13.5% to $38.88 at June 30, 2019

from $34.25 at June 30, 2018. Book value per share is calculated by dividing the total shareholders' equity by the number of shares outstanding.

Capital Adequacy

The Federal Reserve, OCC and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (collectively, joint agencies) establish regulatory capital guidelines for U.S. banking organizations. Regulatory capital guidelines require that capital be measured in relation to the credit and market risks of both on- and off-balance sheet items using various risk weights. On January 1, 2015, the Basel 3 rules became effective and include transition provisions through January 1, 2019. Under Basel 3, Total capital consists of two tiers of capital, Tier 1 and Tier 2. Tier 1 capital is further composed of Common equity tier 1 capital and additional tier 1 capital.

Common equity tier 1 capital primarily includes qualifying common shareholders’ equity, retained earnings and certain minority interests. Goodwill, disallowed intangible assets and certain disallowed deferred tax assets are excluded from Common equity tier 1 capital.

Additional tier 1 capital primarily includes qualifying non-cumulative preferred stock, trust preferred securities (Trust Securities) subject to phase-out and certain minority interests. Certain deferred tax assets are also excluded.

Tier 2 capital primarily consists of qualifying subordinated debt, a limited portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses, Trust Securities subject to phase-out and reserves for unfunded lending commitments. The Corporation’s Total capital is the sum of Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital.

To meet adequately capitalized regulatory requirements, an institution must maintain a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.50 percent and a Total capital ratio of 10.50 percent. A “well-capitalized” institution must generally maintain capital ratios 200 bps higher than the minimum guidelines. The risk-based capital rules have been further supplemented by a Tier 1 leverage ratio, defined as Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average total assets, after certain adjustments. BHCs must have a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4.0 percent. National banks must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5.0 percent to be classified as “well capitalized.” Failure to meet the capital requirements established by the joint agencies can lead to certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s financial position. Below are the capital ratios for the Corporation and lead bank.

The phase in of the capital conservation buffer will have the minimum ratios for common equity Tier 1 capital at 7%, the Tier 1 capital at 8.5% and the total capital at 10.5% in 2019 when fully phased in. Currently the Corporation exceeds all of these minimums.
