(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. (our Company) provides a broad range of banking services to individual and corporate customers located within the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson and Lee’s Summit, Missouri. Our Company is subject to competition from other financial and nonfinancial institutions providing financial products. Additionally, our Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the regulations of certain regulatory agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory agencies.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of our Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instruction to Form 10-Q, do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make those statements not misleading. Management is required to make estimates and assumptions, including the determination of the allowance for loan losses, real estate acquired in connection with foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, and fair values of investment securities available-for-sale that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our Company’s management has evaluated and did not identify any subsequent events or transactions requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

Repurchase Agreements In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-03, Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements, which deals with the accounting for repurchase agreements and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-03 modify the criteria for determining when repurchase agreements would be accounted for as a secured borrowing rather than as a sale. Currently, an entity that maintains effective control over transferred financial assets must account for the transfer as a secured borrowing rather than as a sale. ASU No. 2011-03 removes from the assessment of effective control the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee. The FASB believes that contractual rights and obligations determine effective control and that there does not need to be a requirement to assess the ability to exercise those rights. ASU No. 2011-03 does not change the other existing criteria used in the assessment of effective control. Our Company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2011-03 prospectively for transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occurred on or after January 1, 2012. As our Company accounted for all of its repurchase agreements as collateralized financing arrangements prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2011-03, the adoption had no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), to substantially converge the guidance in U.S. GAAP and IFRS on fair value measurements and disclosures. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-04 result in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for the measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The changes to U.S. GAAP as a result of ASU No. 2011-04 are as follows: (1) The concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise are only relevant when measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets (that is, it does not apply to financial assets or any liabilities); (2) U.S. GAAP currently prohibits application of a blockage factor in valuing financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets. ASU No. 2011-04 extends that prohibition to all fair value measurements; (3) An exception is provided to the basic fair value measurement principles for an entity that holds a group of financial assets and financial liabilities with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk that are managed on the basis of the entity’s net exposure to either of those risks. This exception allows the entity, if certain criteria are met, to measure the fair value of the net asset or liability position in a manner consistent with how market participants would price the net risk position; (4) Aligns the fair value measurement of instruments classified within an entity’s shareholders’ equity with the guidance for liabilities; and

(5) Disclosure requirements have been enhanced for Level 3 fair value measurements to disclose quantitative information about unobservable inputs and assumptions used, to describe the valuation processes used by the entity, and to qualitatively describe the sensitivity of fair value measurements to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those inputs. In addition, entities must report the level in the fair value hierarchy of items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of condition but whose fair value must be disclosed. Our Company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2011-04 effective January 1, 2012. The fair value measurement provisions of ASU No. 2011-04 had no impact on our Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. See Notes 11 and 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the enhanced disclosures required by ASU No. 2011-04.

Other Comprehensive Income In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-05 allow an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both options, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. Under either method, entities are required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. ASU No. 2011-05 also eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity but does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. ASU 2011-05 is effective for periods beginning January 1, 2012 and requires retrospective application. ASU No. 2011-05 was effective for our Company’s interim reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2012, with retrospective application required.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-12 defer indefinitely the requirement for entities to present reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component in both the statement in which net income is presented and the statement in which other comprehensive income is presented. ASU No. 2011-12, which shares the same effective date as ASU No. 2011-05, does not defer the requirement for entities to present components of comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Our Company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2011-05 and ASU No. 2011-12 which resulted in a new statement of comprehensive income for the interim period ended March 31, 2012. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-05 and ASU No. 2011-12 had no impact on our Company’s statements of income and condition.

Stock Dividend On July 1, 2011, our Company paid a special stock dividend of four percent to common shareholders of record at the close of business on May 12, 2011. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, have been adjusted retroactively to reflect this change.

Servicing Financial Assets On January 1, 2012, our Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50 Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. Consistent with ASC 860-50-35-3d, an entity may make an irrevocable decision to subsequently measure a class of servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value at the beginning of any fiscal year. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings, as further described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements. As such, effective January 1, 2012, the change in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights are recognized in earnings in the period for which the change occurs. The newly adopted accounting principle is preferable in the circumstances because the fair value measurement method will produce financial information and results more directly aligned with the performance of mortgage servicing rights.

The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the quarterly financial statements are disclosed in the 2011 Annual Report on form 10-K.

Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. Once the fair value for a collateral dependent loan has been determined, any impaired amount is typically charged off unless the loan has other income streams to support repayment. For impaired loans which have other income streams to support repayment, a specific reserve is established for the amount determined to be impaired.

The specific reserve component of our Company’s allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was determined by using fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals and internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. The recorded investment varies from the unpaid principal balance primarily due to partial charge-offs taken resulting from current appraisals received. The amount recognized as interest income on impaired loans continuing to accrue interest, primarily related to troubled debt restructurings, was $99,524 and $35,849, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired loans is calculated on a monthly basis during the periods reported.

Delinquent and Non-Accrual Loans

The delinquency status of loans is determined based on the contractual terms of the notes. Borrowers are generally classified as delinquent once payments become 30 days or more past due. The following table provides aging information for our Company’s past due and non-accrual loans at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Credit Quality

The following table provides information about the credit quality of the loan portfolio using our Company’s internal rating system reflecting management’s risk assessment. Recent reviews by our Company’s chief credit officer identified areas of concern that resulted in heightened attention being given to reducing concentrations of credit and, in particular, to strengthening credit quality and administration. Loans are placed on watch status when (1) one or more weaknesses which could jeopardize timely liquidation exits; or (2) the margin or liquidity of an asset is sufficiently tenuous that adverse trends could result in a collection problem. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified may have a well defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. Such loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that our Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. It is our Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the collection of interest or principal is doubtful. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when (1) deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower exists for which payment of full principal and interest is not expected, or (2) payment of principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

At March 31, 2012, loans classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) totaled $30,507,936, of which $23,282,754 was on non-accrual status and $7,225,182 was on accrual status. At December 31, 2011, loans classified as TDRs totaled $32,165,238, of which $24,948,451 was on non-accrual status and $7,216,787 was on accrual status. When an individual loan is determined to be a TDR, the amount of impairment is based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral less applicable selling costs. Accordingly, specific reserves of $1,612,460 and $1,522,422 were allocated to the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

The following table summarizes loans that were modified as TDRs during the three months ended March 31, 2012:

  (1) The amounts reported post-modification are inclusive of all partial pay-downs and charge-offs, and no portion of the debt was forgiven. Loans modified as a TDR that were fully paid down, charged-off or foreclosed upon during the period ended are not reported.

According to guidance provided in ASC subtopic 310-40, Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, a loan restructuring or modification of terms is a TDR if the creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Our Company’s portfolio of loans classified as TDRs include concessions such as interest rates below the current market rate, deferring principal payments, and extending maturity dates. Once a loan becomes a TDR, it will continue to be reported as a TDR until it is ultimately repaid in full, charged-off, or the collateral for the loan is foreclosed and sold. Our Company considers a loan in TDR status in default when the borrower’s payment according to the modified terms is at least 90 days past due or has defaulted due to expiration of the loan’s maturity date. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, two loans meeting the TDR criteria were modified. There were no loans modified as a TDR that defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2012, and within twelve months of their modification date.

Our Company’s available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 385 securities at March 31, 2012. One of these securities with an unrealized loss of $272 had been in the loss position for 12 months or longer. The $100,000 unrealized loss included in other comprehensive income at March 31, 2012 was caused by interest rate fluctuations. Our Company’s available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 365 securities at December 31, 2011. One of these securities with an unrealized loss of $294 had been in the loss position for 12 months or longer. The $42,000 unrealized loss included in other comprehensive income at December 31, 2011 was caused by interest rate fluctuations. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality these investments were not considered other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no proceeds from sales of securities and no components of investment securities gains and losses which have been recognized in earnings.

Our Company’s amortization expense on intangible assets in any given period may be different from the estimated amounts depending upon the acquisition of intangible assets, changes in mortgage interest rates, prepayment rates and other market conditions. The following table shows the estimated future amortization expense based on existing asset balances and the interest rate environment as of March 31, 2012 for the next five years:

Mortgage Servicing Rights

On January 1, 2012, our Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50 Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings. As such, effective January 1, 2012, changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights are recognized in earnings in the period in which the change occurs and no amortization will be recognized on mortgage servicing rights going forward.

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our Company serviced mortgage loans for others totaling $307,049,328 and $307,016,245, respectively.

Changes in mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:

(1) The change in fair value resulting from changes in valuation inputs or assumptions used in valuation model primarily reflects the change in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions primarily due to changes in interest rates.
(2) Other changes in fair value reflect changes due to customer payments and passage of time. This also includes a one time adjustment of a $538,032 correction of an immaterial prior period error due to changing from the straight-line amortization method to an accelerated amortization method of accounting for amortizing MSRs in prior years. If the aforementioned was corrected as of December 31, 2011, the balance at the beginning of the period would have been $1,770,345.

The key data and assumptions used in estimating the fair value of our Company’s mortgage servicing rights as of March 31, 2012 were as follows:

 

     March 31, 2012  

Weighted-Average Constant Prepayment Rate

     17.78 

Weighted-Average Contractual Life (in years)

     20.00  

Weighted-Average Note Rate

     4.55 

Weighted-Average Discount Rate

     8.01 
  

 

 

 

(6)   Income Taxes

Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 9.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 32.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Excluding an immaterial correction of a prior period error of $371,000, income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes were 32.8% in comparison to 32.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not our Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences at March 31, 2012 and, therefore, has not established a valuation reserve.

Our Company’s profit-sharing plan includes a matching 401k portion, in which our Company matches the first 3% of eligible employee contributions. Our Company made annual contributions in an amount up to 6% of income before income taxes and before contributions to the profit-sharing and pension plans for all participants, limited to the maximum amount deductible for Federal income tax purposes, for each of the years shown. In addition, employees were able to make additional tax-deferred contributions.

Pension

Our Company also provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees. An employer is required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its balance sheet and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Under our Company’s funding policy for the defined benefit pension plan, contributions are made to a trust as necessary to provide for current service and for any unfunded accrued actuarial liabilities over a reasonable period. To the extent that these requirements are fully covered by assets in the trust, a contribution might not be made in a particular year. Our Company made $476,000 of contributions to the defined benefit plan through May 15, 2012, of which $238,000 relates to the 2011 plan year and $238,000 relates to the 2012 plan year. The minimum required contribution for the 2012 plan year is estimated to be $1,048,000. Our Company has not determined whether it will make any contributions other than the minimum required funding contribution for 2012.

(8)   Stock Compensation

Our Company’s stock option plan provides for the grant of options to purchase up to 506,188 shares of our Company’s common stock to officers and other key employees of our Company and its subsidiaries. All options have been granted at exercise prices equal to fair value and vest over periods ranging from four to five years, except options issued in 2008 to acquire 10,705 shares that vested immediately.

Total stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $10,755 and $22,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2012, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock awards was $88,000 and the related weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately three years.

(9)   Preferred Stock

On December 19, 2008, our Company announced its participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program (CPP), a voluntary program that provides capital to financially healthy banks. This program is designed to attract broad participation by banking institutions to help stabilize the financial system by encouraging lending. Our Company has used the funds received, as discussed below, to continue to provide loans to its customers and to look for ways to deploy additional funds to benefit the communities in our Company’s market area.

Participating in this program included our Company’s issuance of 30,255 shares of senior preferred stock (with a par value of $1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 276,090 shares of common stock (see below for additional information) to the U.S. Department of Treasury in exchange for $30,255,000. The proceeds received were allocated between the preferred stock and the common stock warrant based upon their relative fair values. This resulted in the recording of a discount on the preferred stock upon issuance that reflects the value allocated to the warrant. The discount on the preferred stock will be accreted over five years, consistent with managements’ estimate of the life of the preferred stock. Such accretion will be treated as additional dividends on the preferred stock. The allocated carrying values of the senior preferred stock and common stock warrant at March 31, 2012 were $29,437,000 and $2,382,000, respectively.

The preferred shares carry a 5% cumulative dividend for the first five years and 9% thereafter if not redeemed. The preferred shares are redeemable after three years at par plus accrued dividends, or before three years if our Company raises Tier 1 capital in an amount equal to the preferred stock issued. The preferred stock generally does not have any voting rights, subject to an exception in the event our Company fails to pay dividends on the preferred stock for six or more quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive. Under such circumstances, the Treasury will be entitled to vote to

elect two directors to the board until all unpaid dividends have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. Our Company is prohibited from paying any dividends with respect to shares of common stock unless all accrued and unpaid dividends are paid in full on the senior preferred stock for all past dividend periods. The Treasury Department may also transfer the senior preferred stock to a third party at any time.

The common stock warrant is exercisable immediately with a ten year term, in whole or in part, at an exercise price of $16.44 per share. The preferred stock and warrant are classified as stockholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheet and qualify, for regulatory capital purposes, as Tier I capital. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, our Company had declared and paid $368,000 of dividends and amortized $119,000 of accretion of the discount on preferred stock. On May 9, 2012, our Company redeemed 12,000 shares of preferred stock from the U.S. Department of Treasury by repaying $12,000,000 of the $30,255,000 CPP funds and paying $140,000 of accrued and unpaid dividends on the shares redeemed.

(10)   Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the year. The calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

Under the treasury stock method, outstanding stock options are dilutive when the average market price of our Company’s common stock, when combined with the effect of any unamortized compensation expense, exceeds the option price during the period, except when our Company has a loss from continuing operations available to common shareholders. In addition, proceeds from the assumed exercise of dilutive options along with the related tax benefit are assumed to be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price of such stock during the period.

(11)   Fair Value Measurements

Our Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for the measurement of fair value, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard applies whenever other standards require (permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In this standard, FASB clarified the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, the standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, there were no transfers into or out of Levels 1-3.

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and significant to the fair value. These may be internally developed using our Company’s best information and assumptions that a market participant would consider.

ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased and on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.

Our Company is required to disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis separate from those measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis would include foreclosed real estate, long-lived assets, and core deposit intangible assets, which are reviewed when circumstances or other events indicate that impairment may have occurred.

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Following is a description of our Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:

Available-for-sale securities

Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Available-for-sale securities is the only balance sheet category for which our Company is required, in conformity with U.S. GAAP, to carry the asset at fair value on a recurring basis. Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, our Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Mortgage servicing rights

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows utilizing servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees. The valuation models estimate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Our Company classifies its servicing rights as Level 3.

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

Following is a description of our Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

Impaired Loans

Our Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis other than loans that are considered impaired. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the fair value of the collateral has been determined and any impairment amount calculated, a specific reserve allocation is made. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3. As of March 31, 2012, our Company identified $30.9 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $4.8 million. Related to these loans, there was $0.7 million in charge-offs recorded during the first three months ended March 31, 2012.

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral which has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are recorded as held for sale initially at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Our

Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by our internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3.

(12)   Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such value:

Loans

The fair values of loans are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans could be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The net carrying amount of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. This method of estimating fair value does not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value prescribed by ASC Topic 820.

Investment Securities

A detailed description of the fair value measurement of the debt instruments in the available for sale sections of the investment security portfolio is provided in the Fair Value Measurement section above. A schedule of investment securities by category and maturity is provided in the notes on Investment Securities.

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock

Ownership of equity securities of FHLB is restricted and there is no established market for their resale. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Federal Funds Sold, Cash, and Due from Banks

The carrying amounts of short-term federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks, and cash and due from banks approximate fair value. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell classified as short-term generally mature in 90 days or less.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows utilizing servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees.

Cash surrender value – life insurance

The fair value of Bank owned life insurance (BOLI) approximates the carrying amount. Upon liquidation of these investments, our Company would receive the cash surrender value which equals the carrying amount.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable

For accrued interest receivable and payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short maturity for these financial instruments.

Deposits

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand, NOW accounts, savings, and money market, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Interest-bearing Demand Notes to U.S. Treasury

For securities sold under agreements to repurchase and interest-bearing demand notes to U.S. Treasury, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time period.

Subordinated Notes and Other Borrowings

The fair value of subordinated notes and other borrowings is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for other borrowed money of similar remaining maturities.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the counterparties drawing on such financial instruments, and the present creditworthiness of such counterparties. Our Company believes such commitments have been made on terms, which are competitive in the markets in which it operates.

Limitations

The fair value estimates provided are made at a point in time based on market information and information about the financial instruments. Because no market exists for a portion of our Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the fair value estimates.

HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

(13)   Pending Litigation

Our Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal actions incidental to our Company’s past and current business activities. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our Company’s consolidated balance sheets included liabilities for these legal actions of $157,000 and $161,000, respectively. Based on our Company’s analysis, and considering the inherent uncertainties associated with litigation, management does not believe that it is reasonably possible that these legal actions will materially adversely affect our Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations in the near term.

On November 18, 2010, a suit was filed against our Company and its subsidiary, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank) in the Circuit Court of Jackson County for the Eastern Division of Missouri state court by a customer alleging that the fees associated with the Bank’s automated overdraft program in connection with its debit card and ATM cards constitute unlawful interest in violation of Missouri’s usury laws. The suit seeks class-action status for Bank customers who have paid overdraft fees on their checking accounts. The suit seeks forefeiture and refund of twice the amount of improper overdraft fees assessed and collected. The court has denied the Bank’s motion to dismiss the suit. At this early stage of the litigation, it is not possible for management of the Bank to determine the probability of a material adverse outcome or reasonably estimate the amount of any potential loss.

On December 17, 2009, a suit was filed against Hawthorn Bank (the Bank) in Circuit Court of Jackson County for the Eastern Division of Missouri state court by a customer alleging that the Bank had not followed through on its commitment to fund a loan request. A jury found in favor of the customer and awarded $630,000 in damages to the plaintiffs, including $200,000 in punitive damages. After hearing post-judgment motions, the trial court struck the punitive damage award and entered an amended judgment for a total of $510,000 against the Bank. As of March 31, 2012, our Company carried a liability of $157,000 with respect to this matter. Our Company is in the early stages of the appeals process and the probable outcome is presently not determinable.

Item 2Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

And Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our Company and its subsidiaries, including, without limitation:

 

   

statements that are not historical in nature, and

 

   

statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends” or similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:

 

   

competitive pressures among financial services companies may increase significantly,

 

   

changes in the interest rate environment may reduce interest margins,

 

   

general economic conditions, either nationally or in Missouri, may be less favorable than expected and may adversely affect the quality of our loans and other assets,

 

   

increases in non-performing assets in our loan portfolios and adverse economic conditions may necessitate increases to our provisions for loan losses,

 

   

costs or difficulties related to the integration of the business of our Company and its acquisition targets may be greater than expected,

 

   

legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the business in which our Company and its subsidiaries are engaged, and

 

   

changes may occur in the securities markets.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, or the Dodd-Frank Act, was enacted on July 21, 2010. Provisions of the Act address many issues including, but not limited to, capital, interchange fees, compliance and risk management, debit card overdraft fees, the establishment of a new consumer regulator, healthcare, incentive compensation, expanded disclosures and corporate governance. While many of the new regulations under the Act are expected to primarily impact financial institutions with assets greater than $10 billion, our Company expects these new regulations could reduce our revenues and increase our expenses in the future. Management is currently assessing the impact of the Act and of the regulations anticipated to be promulgated under the Act

We have described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and in other reports that we file with the SEC from time to time, additional factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Other factors that we have not identified in this report could also have this effect. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, which speak only as of the date they were made.

Overview

Through the branch network of its subsidiary bank, our Company, Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc., provides a broad range of commercial and personal banking services, including certificates of deposit, individual retirement and other time deposit accounts, checking and other demand deposit accounts, interest checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts. We also provide a wide range of lending services, including real estate, commercial, installment, and other consumer loans. Other financial services that we provide include automatic teller machines, trust services, credit related insurance, and safe deposit boxes. The geographic areas in which we provide our products and services include the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson and Lee’s Summit, Missouri. The products and services are offered to customers primarily within these geographical areas.

 

32


Our Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income derived primarily from lending and deposit taking activities. A secondary source of revenue is investment income. Our Company also derives income from trust, brokerage, credit card and mortgage banking activities and service charge income.

Much of our Company’s business is commercial, commercial real estate development, and mortgage lending. Our Company has experienced soft loan demand in the communities within which we operate during the current economic slowdown. Our Company’s income from mortgage brokerage activities is directly dependent on mortgage rates and the level of home purchases and refinancings.

The successes of our Company’s growth strategy depends primarily on the ability of our banking subsidiary to generate an increasing level of loans and deposits at acceptable risk levels and on acceptable terms without significant increases in non-interest expenses relative to revenues generated. Our Company’s financial performance also depends, in part, on our ability to manage various portfolios and to successfully introduce additional financial products and services by expanding new and existing customer relationships, utilizing improved technology, and enhancing customer satisfaction. Furthermore, the success of our Company’s growth strategy depends on our ability to maintain sufficient regulatory capital levels during periods in which general economic conditions are unfavorable and despite economic conditions being beyond our control.

Our subsidiary Bank is a full service bank conducting a general banking business, offering its customers checking and savings accounts, debit cards, certificates of deposit, safety deposit boxes and a wide range of lending services, including commercial and industrial loans, residential real estate loans, single payment personal loans, installment loans and credit card accounts. In addition, our Bank provides trust services.

The deposit accounts of our Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or “FDIC” to the extent provided by law. The operations of our Bank are supervised and regulated by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Periodic examinations of our Bank are conducted by representatives of the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Such regulations, supervision and examinations are principally for the benefit of depositors, rather than for the benefit of shareholders. Hawthorn Bancshares is subject to supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve Board.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following accounting policies are considered most critical to the understanding of our Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Because these estimates and judgments are based on current circumstances, they may change over time or prove to be inaccurate based on actual experiences. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of a materially different financial condition and/or results of operations could reasonably be expected. The impact and any associated risks related to our critical accounting policies on our business operations is discussed throughout “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We have identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of our Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance and the impact of any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is provided in Note 1 to our Company’s consolidated financial statements and is also discussed in the Lending and Credit Management section below. Many of the loans are deemed collateral dependent for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, thus the fair value of the underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of the collateral and other factors can be volatile over periods of time. Such volatility can have an impact on the financial performance of our Company.

Valuation of Investment Securities

At the time of purchase, debt securities are classified into one of two categories: available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which our Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. All debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. Our Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Changes in fair value, excluding certain losses

 

33


associated with other-than-temporary impairment, are reported in other comprehensive income, net of taxes, a component of stockholders’ equity. Securities are periodically evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with guidance provided in the FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. For those securities with other-than-temporary impairment, the entire loss in fair value is required to be recognized in current earnings if our Company intends to sell the securities or believes it more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery. If neither condition is met, but our Company does not expect to recover the amortized cost basis, our Company determines whether a credit loss has occurred, which is then recognized in current earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over the lives of the respective securities, with consideration of historical and estimated prepayment rates for mortgage-backed securities, as an adjustment to yield. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in earnings based on the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset / liability method by recognizing the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing our Company’s future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns such as realization of the effects of temporary differences, net operating loss carry forwards and changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. A valuation allowance is established when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become realizable. In this case, our Company would adjust the recorded value of our deferred tax asset, which would result in a direct charge to income tax expense in the period that the determination was made. Likewise, our Company would reverse the valuation allowance when we expect to realize the deferred tax asset. In addition, our Company is subject to the continuous examination of our tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Our Company accrues for penalties and interest related to income taxes in income tax expense.

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral which has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses. Our Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are recorded as other real estate expense. Our Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned on an asset-by-asset basis. The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the “cost” of a parcel of other real estate.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ANALYSIS

Our Company has prepared all of the consolidated financial information in this report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, our Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurances that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Our Company’s consolidated net income of $1,451,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased $497,000 compared to consolidated net income of $954,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Our Company recorded preferred stock dividends and accretion on preferred stock of $489,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, resulting in $962,000 of net income available for common shareholders compared to net income of $465,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Diluted earnings per share increased from $0.10 per common share to $0.21 per common share. The provision for loan losses decreased $50,002, or 2.9%, from March 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012. Our Company’s net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, increased $317,000, or 3.0%, to $10,957,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $10,640,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The $297,000 decrease in income tax expenses includes a $371,000 immaterial correction of a prior period error.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the return on average assets was 0.49%, the return on average common stockholders’ equity was 5.21%, and the efficiency ratio was 74.1%. Net interest margin increased from 3.84% to 3.98% from March 31, 2011 to 2012, respectively. Total assets at March 31, 2012 were $1,205,981,000, compared to $1,171,161,000 at December 31, 2011, an increase of $34,820,000, or 3.0%. On July 1, 2011, our Company distributed a four percent stock dividend for the third consecutive year to common shareholders of record at the close of business May 12, 2011. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the stock dividend.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the largest source of revenue resulting from our Company’s lending, investing, borrowing, and deposit gathering activities. It is affected by both changes in the level of interest rates and changes in the amounts and mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

Average Balance Sheets

The following table presents average balance sheets, net interest income, average yields of earning assets, average costs of interest bearing liabilities, net interest spread and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011, respectively.

(1) Interest income and yields are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis using the Federal statutory income tax rate of 34%, net of nondeductible interest expense. Such adjustments totaled $142,000 and $160,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
(2) Non-accruing loans are included in the average amounts outstanding.
(3) Fees and costs on loans are included in interest income.

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased $317,000, or 3.0%, to $10,957,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $10,640,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Measured as a percentage of average earning assets, the net interest margin (expressed on a fully taxable equivalent basis) increased to 3.98% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 3.84% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Our Company’s net interest spread increased to 3.85% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 3.66% for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Average interest earning assets decreased $19,495,000 to $1,104,272,000 at March 31, 2012 and the rates earned decreased from 4.96% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to 4.64% for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Our Company’s rates paid on interest bearing liabilities decreased to 0.79% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 1.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Effective January 1, 2012, our Company recorded a $368,000 credit to interest expense on time deposits for imputed interest calculated on capitalized interest not accounted for during the time period of 2004 through 2011 on the construction of our Company’s new bank buildings. This is considered a correction of an immaterial prior period error. Without this credit to interest expense, rates paid on interest bearing liabilities would have been approximately 0.95% during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Noninterest income decreased $82,000 or 4.0% to $1,970,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $2,052,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily the result of a $310,000 decrease in Real estate servicing income partially offset by a $272,000 increase in the gains on sales of mortgage loans. On January 1, 2012, our Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50 Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings, as further described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements. As such, effective January 1, 2012, the change in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights is recognized in earnings for the period in which the change occurs. As a result of the changes in fair value, $170,000 was recorded in real estate servicing income due to changes in model inputs and assumptions, and ($655,000) was recorded due to other changes in fair value resulting from customer payments and passage of time. The newly adopted accounting principle is preferable in the circumstances because the fair value measurement method will produce financial information and results more directly aligned with the performance of mortgage servicing rights. Our Company’s loans sold increased from $12,000,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $22,000,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Due to low interest rates, an increase in refinancing activity impacted both the volume of loans sold and gains recognized. Our Company was servicing $307,000,000 of mortgage loans at March 31, 2012 compared to $301,000,000 at March 31, 2011.

Noninterest expense increased $102,000, or 1.1%, to $9,480,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $9,378,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The net increase primarily resulted from a $316,000, or 41.0%, increase in other noninterest expenses, a $89,000, or 18.1%, increase in other real estate expense, an $183,000, or 16.4% increase in employee benefits, a $235,000, or 49.1%, decrease in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance assessment, and a $154,000, or 31.4%, decrease in legal, examination, and professional fees. Other noninterest expense increased due to a $177,000 donation of a property in other real estate owned to a nonprofit organization and $88,000 of penalties assessed to our Company. Other real estate expense increased primarily due to a $254,000 expense provision for other real estate owned for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $160,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in employee benefits was due to recording an $102,000 estimated profit sharing accrual during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $23,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in FDIC insurance assessments was due to amendments made by the FDIC effective for the third quarter of 2011 to implement revisions to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act made by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The quarters ending after June 30, 2011 reflect a new assessment base using assets and tier one capital in the assessment calculation. The decrease in legal, examination, and professional fees primarily resulted from a $173,000 decease in consulting fees due to a human resource best practices and profitability consulting project.

Income taxes

Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 9.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 32.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Excluding an immaterial correction of a prior period error of $371,000, income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes were 32.8% in comparison to 32.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, our Company released $28,000 of interest accrued related to the release of $221,000 of uncertain tax provisions. As of March 31, 2012, our Company had not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions.

Lending and Credit Management

Interest earned on the loan portfolio is a primary source of interest income for our Company. Net loans represented 68.4% of total assets as of March 31, 2012 compared to 70.8% as of March 31, 2011.

Lending activities are conducted pursuant to an established loan policy approved by our Bank’s Board of Directors. The Bank’s credit review process is comprised of a regional loan committee with an established approval limit. In addition, a senior loan committee reviews all credit relationships in aggregate over an established dollar amount. The senior loan committee meets weekly and is comprised of senior managers of the Bank.

Our Company’s loan portfolio decreased $2,991,000, or 0.4%, from December 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012, primarily due to repayments, charge-offs and transfers to other real estate owned. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 there were no significant increases in loan demand and loan repayments continued to exceed new originations. Our Company did experience an increase in refinancing during this time period due to low interest rates available for real estate mortgage residential properties. Contributing to the decline of our loan portfolio were gross loans charged-off in the amount of $1,192,000 and $5,598,000 of assets transferred from loans to other real estate owned and repossessed assets.

The economy as a whole continues to be considered weak. Our Company anticipates several more quarters of slow growth and a very tight economy. The economy in the southern half of our Company’s market area has been impacted by a tornado that struck the Branson area. Significant fluctuations in the stock market show little indication that the economy will stabilize and rebound soon. Although employment rates remain elevated, unemployment levels in our Company’s market area have remained steady during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Management continues to focus on the improvement of asset quality by tightening underwriting standards and is focused on lending to credit worthy borrowers with the capacity to service their debts. Where appropriate, management actively works with existing borrowers to modify loan terms and conditions in order to assist the borrowers in servicing their debt obligations to our Company. The U.S. FHFA House Price Index for January 2012 indicates house prices nationwide to be 19.2% below the April 2007 peak. Our Company’s market area had a 5.2% increase in house prices from the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012. This compares favorably to other regions in the nation with increases as much as 1% while nationally the index declined 0.8%.

Our Company extends credit to its local community market through traditional real estate mortgage products. Our Company does not participate in extending credit to sub-prime residential real estate markets. Our Company does not lend funds for the type of transactions defined as “highly leveraged” by bank regulatory authorities or for foreign loans. Additionally, our Company does not have any concentrations of loans exceeding 10% of total loans that are not otherwise disclosed in the loan portfolio composition table. Our Company does not have any interest-earning assets which would have been included in nonaccrual, past due, or restructured loans if such assets were loans.

Our Company generally does not retain long-term fixed rate residential mortgage loans in its portfolio. Fixed rate loans conforming to standards required by the secondary market are offered to qualified borrowers, but are not funded until our Company has a non-recourse purchase commitment from the secondary market at a predetermined price. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 our Company sold $22,000,000 of loans to investors. At March 31, 2012, our Company was servicing approximately $307,000,000 of loans sold to the secondary market.

Real estate mortgage loans retained in our Company’s portfolio generally include provisions for rate adjustments at one to three year intervals. Commercial loans and real estate construction loans generally have maturities of less than one year. Installment loans to individuals are primarily fixed rate loans with maturities from one to five years.

Management along with the senior loan committee, and internal loan review, formally review all loans in excess of certain dollar amounts (periodically established) at least annually. Currently, loans in excess of $2,000,000 in aggregate and all adversely classified credits identified by management as containing more than usual risk are reviewed. In addition, loans below the above scope are reviewed on a sample basis. On a monthly basis, the senior loan committee reviews and reports to the Board of Directors past due, classified, and watch list loans in order to classify or reclassify loans as loans requiring attention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. During this review, management also determines which loans should be considered impaired. Management follows the guidance provided in the FASB’s ASC Topic 310, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, in identifying and measuring loan impairment. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration. Management believes, but there can be no assurance, that these procedures keep management informed of potential problem loans. Based upon these procedures, both the allowance and provision for loan losses are adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered necessary by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

It is our Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that the collection of interest is doubtful, or upon which principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis. Interest on nonaccrual loans, which would have been recorded under the original terms of the loans, was approximately $626,000 and $606,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 approximately $15,138,000 and $11,676,000, respectively, of loans not included in the nonperforming asset table were identified by management as potential problem loans having more than normal risk which raised doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms. Borrowers are continuing to experience cash flow problems and as well as some deterioration in collateral value. Management believes the general allowance was sufficient to cover the risks and probable losses related to such loans at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Total non-accrual loans at March 31, 2012 decreased $3,910,000 from December 31, 2011. The decrease from December 31, 2011 primarily consisted of a $4,901,000 decrease in real estate mortgage – commercial non-accrual loans. This decrease was partially offset by a $1,903,000 increase in commercial, financial and agricultural non-accrual loans. The decreases primarily resulted from the foreclosure of four loans with balances totaling $5,210,000 that had been in nonaccrual status as of December 31, 2011. The increase in commercial, financial and agricultural non-accrual loans resulted primarily from one significant loan relationship with a balance totaling $1,279,000 at December 31, 2011 that was put on non-accrual status during the first three months of 2012. At March 31, 2012, real estate mortgage—commercial non-accrual loans made up 61% of total non-accrual loans compared to 67% at December 31, 2011.

Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest decreased $54,000 from December 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012. Foreclosed real estate and other repossessions increased $4,157,000 from $16,020,000 at December 31, 2011 to $20,177,000 at March 31, 2012 primarily due to real estate mortgage—commercial foreclosures.

At March 31, 2012, loans classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDR) totaled $30,508,000, of which $23,283,000 was on non-accrual status and $7,225,000 was on accrual status. At December 31, 2011, loans classified as TDR totaled $32,165,000, of which $24,948,000 was on non-accrual status and $7,217,000 was on accrual status.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

As mentioned above, the economy continues to contribute to the deterioration of collateral values. The economic downturn and elevated unemployment rates in our market area have impaired the ability for certain of our customers to make payments on our loans in accordance with contractual terms.

Our Company has taken an active approach to obtain current appraisals and has adjusted the provision to reflect the amounts management determined necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level necessary to cover probable losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses increased to $14,640,000 or 1.7% of loans outstanding at March 31, 2012 compared to $12,402,000 or 1.4% of loans outstanding at March 31, 2011.

The following table summarizes loan loss experience for the three months ended as indicated:

The provision for loan losses decreased $50,000 or 2.9% to $1,700,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $1,750,000 for the three months end March 31, 2011. Although net charge offs have improved during the three months ended March 31, 2012 in comparison to the three months ended March 31, 2011, the provision for loan losses remains significant due to a $1,086,000 increase in specific reserves on impaired loans from $3,737,000 at March 31, 2011 to $4,823,000 at March 31, 2012.

As shown in the table above, our Company’s net loan charge-offs were $869,000, or 0.11% of average loans, for the three months ended March 31, 2012. In comparison, net loan charge-offs were $3,903,000, or 0.44% of average loans, for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2012 continued to include significant write-downs on properties going to foreclosure to reflect current collateral values. Commercial, financial, and agricultural net charge offs decreased $818,000 from $767,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to a net recovery of $51,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Real estate construction—residential net charge-offs decreased $1,518,000 from $1,486,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to a net recovery of $32,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Real estate construction – residential net charge–offs during 2011 were primarily due to charge-offs taken on two credits for which management had specifically reserved $2,000,000 as of December 31, 2010. Real estate mortgage—residential net charge-offs decreased $928,000 to $103,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $1,031,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Partially offsetting these decreases, real estate mortgage—commercial loan net charge-offs increased $209,000 to $785,000 at March 31, 2012 representing 90% of total net charges-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2012. This net charge off primarily related to one significant commercial loan relationship that went to foreclosure during the first quarter of 2012 totaling $594,000.

The allowance for loan losses is available to absorb probable loan losses regardless of the category of loans to be charged off. The allowance for loan losses consists of asset-specific reserves, and general reserves based on incurred loss estimates and unallocated reserves.

The asset-specific reserve component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment and is primarily based on management’s best estimate of proceeds from liquidating collateral. The majority of our nonperforming loans are secured by real estate collateral. The actual timing and amount of repayments and the ultimate realizable value of the collateral may differ from management’s estimate.

 

45


The general reserve component is determined by applying percentages to pools of loans by asset type. These percentages are determined by using historical loss percentages. These incurred loss estimates are sensitive to changes in delinquency status, realizable value of collateral, and other risk factors.

The unallocated portion of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of conditions that are not directly reflected in the determination of the asset-specific component and the incurred loss component discussed above. The evaluation of inherent loss with respect to these qualitative conditions is subject to a higher degree of uncertainty because they may not be identified with specific problem credits or portfolio segments. Conditions evaluated in connection with the unallocated portion of the allowance include general economic and business conditions affecting our key lending areas, credit quality trends (including trends in substandard loans expected to result from existing conditions), collateral values, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, and findings of our internal loan review department. Management believes that based on detailed analysis of each credit risk inherent to our loan portfolio and the value of any associated collateral, that the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2012 is a reasonable estimate of probable losses incurred at that date.

The underlying assumptions, estimates and assessments used by management to determine these components are continually evaluated and updated to reflect management’s current view of overall economic conditions and relevant factors impacting credit quality and inherent losses. Changes in such estimates could significantly impact the allowance and provision for credit losses. Our Company could experience credit losses that are different from the current estimates made by management.

Our Company’s allowance for loan losses increased $831,000 from December 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012. The overall increase of the allowance for loan losses primarily consisted of a $918,000 increase in the allocation for commercial, financial, and agricultural loans, and a $312,000 increase in the allocation for real estate mortgage – commercial loans, and was partially offset by a $461,000 decrease in the allocation for real estate construction – residential loans. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 29.45% at March 31, 2012 compared to 25.73% at December 31, 2011.

At March 31, 2012, management determined that $14,635,000 of the $14,640,000 total allowance for loan losses represented asset-specific and incurred loss components and $5,000 was unallocated. This compares to $13,806,000 of the $13,809,000 total allowance for loan losses allocated to asset-specific and incurred loss components and $3,000 that was unallocated at December 31, 2011. Management’s analysis of assessing the general reserve portion of the allowance for loan losses on a detailed level by homogeneous loan categories for loans not considered impaired, measures reserve requirements based on historical loss experiences for these certain types of loans and loan grades for the past twelve quarters.

The asset-specific reserve component of our allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2012 was determined by using fair values of the underlying collateral through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. The general reserve component of our allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2012 was determined by calculating historical loss percentages for various loan categories over the previous twelve quarters. Management determined that the previous twelve quarters were reflective of the loss characteristics of our Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic downturn. Management realizes there are inherent weaknesses in relying solely on historical loss percentages and also considers qualitative factors in determining the allowance for loan losses. Internal factors management considers consist of underwriting standards, nature and volume of loans, lending staff experience, volume and severity of delinquencies and classified loans, loan review quality, value of underlying collateral, and concentrations of credit. Management also considers external factors such as economic conditions, market segments, regulatory and legal considerations, and competition. During the third quarter of 2011, management elected to further refine the methodology by distributing the previous quarter’s unallocated reserve throughout the call report classes of loans by adding qualitative adjustments in addition to the historical loss rate applied to determine the expected probable loss requirement for the current portfolio. The specific and general allocations represent management’s best estimate of probable losses contained in the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.

The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At March 31, 2012, $4,823,000 of our Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $49,718,000 compared to $3,747,000 of our Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $53,619,000 at December 31, 2011. Based upon detailed analysis of all impaired loans, management has determined that $18,807,000, or 38%, of impaired loans required no reserve allocation at March 31, 2012 compared to $23,223,000, or 43%, at December 31, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Management

The role of liquidity management is to ensure funds are available to meet depositors’ withdrawal and borrowers’ credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity to meet the demands is provided by maturing assets, short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally depositors. Due to the nature of services offered by our Company, management prefers to focus on transaction accounts and full service relationships with customers. Management believes it has the ability to increase deposits at any time by offering rates slightly higher than the market rate.

Our Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), primarily made up of senior management, has direct oversight responsibility for our Company’s liquidity position and profile. A combination of daily, weekly and monthly reports provided to management detail the following: internal liquidity metrics, composition and level of the liquid asset portfolio, timing differences in short-term cash flow obligations, available pricing and market access to the financial markets for capital and exposure to contingent draws on our Company’s liquidity.

Our Company has a number of sources of funds to meet liquidity needs on a daily basis. Our Company’s most liquid assets are comprised of available for sale investment securities, federal funds sold, and excess reserves held at the Federal Reserve as follows:

Federal funds sold and resale agreements normally have overnight maturities and are used for general daily liquidity purposes. The fair value of the available for sale investment portfolio was $229,154,000 at March 31, 2012 and included an unrealized net gain of $5,453,000. The portfolio includes maturities of approximately $5,701,000 over the next twelve months, which offer resources to meet either new loan demand or reductions in our Company’s deposit base.

Our Company pledges portions of its investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, federal funds purchase lines, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank, and for other purposes required by law.

At March 31, 2012 total investment securities pledged for these purposes were as follows:

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our Company’s unpledged securities in the available for sale portfolio totaled approximately $51,188,000 and $41,359,000, respectively.

Liquidity is available from our Company’s base of core customer deposits, defined as demand, interest, checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts. At March 31, 2012, such deposits totaled $582,727,000 and represented 58.7% of our Company’s total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile and are often tied to other products of our Company through long lasting relationships. Time deposits and certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over totaled $410,378,000 at March 31, 2012. These accounts are normally considered more volatile and higher costing representing 41.3% of total deposits at March 31, 2012.

Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained mainly from upstream correspondent banks with which our Company maintains approved credit lines. As of March 31, 2012, under agreements with these unaffiliated banks, the Bank may borrow up to $15,000,000 in federal funds on an unsecured basis and $14,732,000 on a secured basis. There were

no federal funds purchased outstanding at March 31, 2012. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are generally borrowed overnight and are secured by a portion of our Company’s investment portfolio. At March 31, 2012 there was $22,748,000 in repurchase agreements. Our Company may periodically borrow additional short-term funds from the Federal Reserve Bank through the discount window; although no such borrowings were outstanding at March 31, 2012. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB). As a member of the FHLB, the Bank has access to credit products of the FHLB. As of March 31, 2012, the Bank had $28,345,000 in outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. In addition, our Company has $49,486,000 in outstanding subordinated notes issued to wholly-owned grantor trusts, funded by preferred securities issued by the trusts.

Our Company pledges certain assets, including loans and investment securities to the Federal Reserve Bank, FHLB, and other correspondent banks as security to establish lines of credit and borrow from these entities. Based on the type and value of collateral pledged, our Company may draw advances against this collateral. The following table reflects the advance equivalent of the assets pledged, borrowings, and letters of credit outstanding, in addition to the estimated future funding capacity available to our Company at March 31, 2012:

At March 31, 2012, loans with a market value of $421,906,000 were pledged at the Federal Home Loan Bank as collateral for borrowings and letters of credit. At March 31, 2012, investments with a market value of $18,214,000 were pledged to secure federal funds purchase lines and borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank.

Sources and Uses of Funds

Cash and cash equivalents were $63,567,000 at March 31, 2012 compared to $43,209,000 at December 31, 2011. The $20,358,000 increase resulted from changes in the various cash flows produced by operating, investing, and financing activities of our Company, as shown in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Cash flow provided from operating activities consists mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Operating activities provided cash flow of $5,299,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Investing activities consisting, mainly of purchases, sales and maturities of available for sale securities, and changes in the level of the loan portfolio, used total cash of $17,378,000. The cash outflow primarily consisted of $41,291,000 purchases of investment securities and a $2,396,000 increase in the loan portfolio. Partially offsetting this increase was $25,621,000 in proceeds from maturities, calls, and pay-downs of investment securities and $1,195,000 in proceeds from sales of other real estate owned and repossessions

Financing activities provided cash of $32,437,000, resulting primarily from a $27,592,000 net increase in time deposits and interest-bearing transaction accounts and a $7,289,000 increase in demand deposits. Future short-term liquidity needs arising from daily operations are not expected to vary significantly during 2012.

In the normal course of business, our Company enters into certain forms of off-balance sheet transactions, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. These transactions are managed through our Company’s various risk management processes. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet transactions in its evaluation of our Company’s liquidity. Our Company had $119,709,000 in unused loan commitments and standby letters of credit as of March 31, 2012. While this commitment level would be difficult to fund given our Company’s current liquidity resources, we know that the nature of these commitments are such that the likelihood of such a funding demand is very low.

Our Company is a legal entity, separate and distinct from the Bank, which must provide its own liquidity to meet its operating needs. Our Company’s ongoing liquidity needs primarily include funding its operating expenses and paying cash dividends to its common and preferred shareholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, our Company paid cash dividends to its common and preferred shareholders totaling $611,000 and $602,000. At March 31, 2012 and 2011, our Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $11,661,000 and $13,282,000 respectively.

Capital Management

Our Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, our Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of our Company and the Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require our Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our Company and the Bank each met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The actual and required capital amounts and ratios for our Company and the Bank as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 follows:

 

                  Minimum     Well-Capitalized

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Sensitivity

Market risk arises from exposure to changes in interest rates and other relevant market rate or price risk. Our Company faces market risk in the form of interest rate risk through transactions other than trading activities. Our Company uses financial modeling techniques to measure interest rate risk. These techniques measure the sensitivity of future earnings due to changing interest rate environments. Guidelines established by our Company’s Asset/Liability Committee and approved by the Board of Directors are used to monitor exposure of earnings at risk. General interest rate movements are used to develop sensitivity as our Company feels it has no primary exposure to specific points on the yield curve. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 our Company utilized a 400 basis point immediate and gradual move in interest rates (both upward and downward) applied to both a parallel and proportional yield curve.

Effects of Inflation

The effects of inflation on financial institutions are different from the effects on other commercial enterprises since financial institutions make few significant capital or inventory expenditures which are directly affected by changing prices. Because bank assets and liabilities are virtually all monetary in nature, inflation does not affect a financial institution as much as do changes in interest rates. The general level of inflation does underlie the general level of most interest rates, but interest rates do not increase at the rate of inflation as do prices of goods and services. Rather, interest rates react more to changes in the expected rate of inflation and to changes in monetary and fiscal policy.

Inflation does have an impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry, often resulting in a need to increase capital at higher than normal rates to maintain an appropriate capital to asset ratio. In the opinion of management, inflation did not have a significant effect on our Company’s operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Our Company’s management has evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a – 15(e) or 15d – 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of March 31, 2012. Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. It should be noted that any system of disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any system of disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of any such system, there can be no assurance that any design will always succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

There has been no change in our Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period ended March 31, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

Balance Sheet In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, amending ASC Topic 210. The objective of this update is to provide enhanced disclosures that will enable users of its financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position. This includes the effects or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with an entity’s recognized assets and recognized liabilities within the scope of this update. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 3, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods and retrospectively require disclosures for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 is not expected to have a material impact on our Company’s consolidated financial statements.
