Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation.

This quarterly report presents the consolidated financial statements of Lakeland Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) and its subsidiary, Lakeland Bank (Lakeland). The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and predominant practices within the banking industry.

The Company’s unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, such as normal recurring accruals that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the quarter presented do not necessarily indicate the results that the Company will achieve for all of 2012. You should read these interim financial statements in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that are presented in the Lakeland Bancorp, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The financial information in this quarterly report has been prepared in accordance with the Company’s customary accounting practices. Certain information and footnote disclosures required under U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, as permitted by rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

On March 19, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a 5% stock dividend which was distributed on April 16, 2012 to holders of record as of March 30, 2012. All weighted average, actual share and per share information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been adjusted retroactively for the effects of the stock dividend.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements to conform to the 2012 presentation.

Management has evaluated the securities in the above table and has concluded that none of the securities with unrealized losses have impairments that are other-than-temporary. In its evaluation, management considered the credit rating on the securities and the results of discounted cash flow analyses. All investment securities are evaluated on a periodic basis to determine if factors are identified that would require further analysis. In evaluating the Company’s securities, management considers the following items:

 

   

The credit ratings of the underlying issuer and if any changes in the credit rating have occurred;

 

   

The Company’s ability and intent to hold the securities, including an evaluation of the need to sell the security to meet certain liquidity measures, or whether the Company has sufficient levels of cash to hold the identified security in order to recover the entire amortized cost of the security;

 

   

The length of time the security’s fair value has been less than amortized cost; and

 

   

Adverse conditions related to the security or its issuer if the issuer has failed to make scheduled payments or other factors.

As of June 30, 2012, equity securities included $13.0 million in investment funds that do not have a quoted market price but use net asset value per share or its equivalent to measure fair value.

The funds include $2.9 million in funds that are primarily invested in community development loans that are guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Because the funds are primarily guaranteed by the federal government there are minimal changes in market value between accounting periods. These funds can be redeemed within 60 days notice at the net asset value less unpaid management fees with the approval of the fund manager. As of June 30, 2012, the net amortized cost equaled the market value of the investment. There are no unfunded commitments related to this investment.

The funds also include $10.1 million in funds that are invested in government guaranteed loans, mortgage-backed securities, small business loans and other instruments supporting affordable housing and economic development. The Company may redeem these funds at the net asset value calculated at the end of the current business day less any unpaid management fees. As of June 30, 2012, the amortized cost of these securities was $9.9 million and the fair value was $10.1 million. There are no restrictions on redemptions for the holdings in these investments other than the notice required by the fund manager. There are no unfunded commitments related to this investment.

Interest that would have been accrued on impaired loans and leases during the first six months of 2012 and 2011 had the loans been performing under original terms would have been $1.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Interest that would have accrued for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $2.9 million.

Credit Quality Indicators

The classes of loans are determined by internal risk rating. Management closely and continually monitors the quality of its loans and leases and assesses the quantitative and qualitative risks arising from the credit quality of its loans and leases. It is the policy of Lakeland to require that a Credit Risk Rating be assigned to all commercial loans and loan commitments. The Credit Risk Rating System has been developed by management to provide a methodology to be used by Loan Officers, department heads and Senior Management in identifying various levels of credit risk that exist within Lakeland’s loan portfolios. The risk rating system assists Senior Management in evaluating Lakeland’s commercial loan portfolio, analyzing trends, and determining the proper level of required reserves to be recommended to the Board. In assigning risk ratings, management considers, among other things, a borrower’s debt service coverage, earnings strength, loan to value ratios, industry conditions and economic conditions. Management categorizes loans and commitments into a one (1) to nine (9) numerical structure with rating 1 being the strongest rating and rating 9 being the weakest. Ratings 1 through 5W are considered ‘Pass’ ratings.

Lakeland also maintains a reserve for unfunded lending commitments which are included in other liabilities. This reserve was $1,082,000 and $1,015,000 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The Company analyzes the adequacy of the reserve for unfunded lending commitments in conjunction with its analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses. For more information on this analysis, see “Risk Elements” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Troubled debt restructurings are those loans where concessions have been made due to borrowers’ financial difficulties. Restructured loans typically involve a modification of terms such as a reduction of the stated interest rate, a moratorium of principal payments and/or an extension of the maturity date at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate of a new loan with similar risk. The Company considers the potential losses on these loans as well as the remainder of its impaired loans while considering the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses.

Note 10. Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest level priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The following describes the three levels of fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; includes U.S. Treasury Notes, and other U.S. Government Agency securities that actively trade in over-the-counter markets; equity securities and mutual funds that actively trade in over-the-counter markets.

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability including yield curves, volatilities, and prepayment speeds.

Level 3 – unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and that are consequently not based on market activity but upon particular valuation techniques.

The Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are its available for sale investment securities. The Company obtains fair values on its securities using information from a third party servicer. If quoted prices for securities are available in an active market, those securities are classified as Level 1 securities. The Company has certain equity securities that are classified as Level 1 securities. Level 2 securities were primarily comprised of U.S. Agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of state and political subdivisions and corporate securities. Fair values were estimated primarily by obtaining quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or through the use of pricing models supported with market data information. Standard inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, bids and offers. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the pricing information received from the Company’s third party pricing service. This review includes a comparison to non-binding third-party quotes. As a result of our review, we did not have any adjustments to prices from our third party servicer.

Impaired loans and leases are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired at the lower of cost or market value. Because most of Lakeland’s impaired loans are collateral dependant, fair value is generally measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans and leases and is classified at a level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral may be real estate, accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and/or other business assets. The value of the real estate is assessed based on appraisals by qualified third party licensed appraisers. The appraisers may use the income approach to value the collateral using discount rates (with ranges of 5-11%) or capitalization rates (with ranges of 5-9%) to evaluate the property. The value of the equipment may be determined by an appraiser, if significant, inquiry through a recognized valuation resource, or by the value on the borrower’s financial statements. Field examiner reviews on business

assets may be conducted based on the loan exposure and reliance on this type of collateral. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business. Impaired loans and leases are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.

Other real estate owned (OREO) and other repossessed assets, representing property acquired through foreclosure, are carried at fair value less estimated disposal costs of the acquired property. Fair value on other real estate owned is based on the appraised value of the collateral using discount rates or capitalization rates similar to those used in impaired loan valuation. The fair value of other repossessed assets is estimated by inquiry through a recognized valuation resource.

Changes in the assumptions or methodologies used to estimate fair values may materially affect the estimated amounts. Changes in economic conditions, locally or nationally, could impact the value of the estimated amounts of impaired loans, OREO and other repossessed assets.

Fair Value of Certain Financial Instruments

Estimated fair values have been determined by the Company using the best available data and an estimation methodology suitable for each category of financial instruments. Management is concerned that there may not be reasonable comparability between institutions due to the wide range of permitted assumptions and methodologies in the absence of active markets. This lack of uniformity gives rise to a high degree of subjectivity in estimating financial instrument fair values.

The estimation methodologies used, the estimated fair values, and recorded book balances at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are outlined below.

This summary, as well as the table below, excludes financial assets and liabilities for which carrying value approximates fair value. For financial assets, these include cash and cash equivalents. For financial liabilities, these include noninterest bearing demand deposits, savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts and federal funds sold and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. The estimated fair value of demand, savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Carrying value is used because there is no stated maturity on these accounts, and the customer has the ability to withdraw the funds immediately. Also excluded from this summary and the following table are those financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, as previously described.

The fair value of Investment Securities Held to Maturity was measured using information from the same third-party servicer used for Investment Securities Available for Sale using the same methodologies discussed above.

Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLB) stock is an equity interest that can be sold to the issuing FHLB, to other FHLBs, or to other member banks at its par value. Because ownership of these securities is restricted, they do not have a readily determinable fair value. As such, the Company’s FHLB Stock is recorded at cost or par value and is evaluated for impairment each reporting period by considering the ultimate recoverability of the investment rather than temporary declines in value. The Company’s evaluation primarily includes an evaluation of liquidity, capitalization, operating performance, commitments, and regulatory or legislative events.

The net loan portfolio at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 has been valued using a present value discounted cash flow where market prices were not available. The discount rate used in these calculations is the estimated current market rate adjusted for credit risk. The carrying value of accrued interest approximates fair value.

For fixed maturity certificates of deposit, fair value was estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

The fair value of long-term debt is based upon the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The Company estimates the discount rate using the rates currently offered for similar borrowing arrangements. The fair value of subordinated debentures at June 30, 2012 is based on bid/ask prices from brokers for similar types of instruments based on updated accounting guidance on fair value measurement. As of December 31, 2011, the fair value of the subordinated debentures was based on discounted cash flows using discount rates currently offered for similar borrowing arrangements.

The fair values 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 and the present

creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of guarantees and letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date.

The following table presents the carrying values, fair values and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

Note 11. Preferred Stock

On February 8, 2012, the Company redeemed its remaining 19,000 shares of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A originally issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Troubled Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”). The Company paid to the Treasury $19.2 million, which included $19.0 million of principal and $219,000 in accrued and unpaid dividends, on February 8, 2012. As a result of the early payment, the Company also accelerated the accretion of $501,000 of the preferred stock discount.

On February 29, 2012, the Company repurchased the outstanding common stock warrant previously issued to the treasury for the purchase of 1,046,901 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $8.46 per share, for $2.8 million, completing the Company’s participation in the Treasury’s CPP. Upon repurchase, the common stock warrant had a carrying value of $3.3 million. The repurchase price of $2.8 million was recorded as a reduction to common stock on the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity.

Note 12. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued new accounting guidance regarding the reconsideration of effective control for repurchase agreements. This guidance modifies 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. This guidance 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. This guidance does not change the other existing criteria used in the assessment of effective control. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance prospectively for transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occurred on or after January 1, 2012. As the Company accounted for all of its repurchase agreements as collateralized financing arrangements prior to the adoption of this guidance, the adoption had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”) issued new accounting guidance on fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. This guidance is the result of work by the FASB and IASB to develop common requirements for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). As a result, the amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The guidance is effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2012. Adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued accounting guidance updating the requirements regarding the presentation of comprehensive income to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate convergence of U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Under the new guidance, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income can be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the changes in stockholders’ equity. This amendment will be applied prospectively and the amendments are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. In December 2011, the FASB deferred certain aspects of this guidance related to the requirement to present items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income separately with their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2012. Adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but resulted in additional disclosure.

In September 2011, the FASB issued accounting guidance related to the annual testing of goodwill for impairment. Under the new guidance, an entity has the option to first determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. If, however, the entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test and then perform the second test, if required. This amendment is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance for its goodwill review as of November 30, 2011. Adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(including delinquency trends and the allowance for loan and lease losses), corporate objectives, and other financial and business matters. The words “anticipates,” “projects,” “intends,” “estimates,” “expects,” “believes,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The Company cautions that these forward-looking statements are necessarily speculative and speak only as of the date made, and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, all of which may change over time. Actual results could differ materially from such forward-looking statements.

In addition to the risk factors disclosed elsewhere in this document, the following factors, among others, could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially and adversely from such forward-looking statements: changes in the financial services industry and the U.S. and global capital markets, changes in economic conditions nationally, regionally and in the Company’s markets, the nature and timing of actions of the Federal Reserve Board and other regulators, the nature and timing of legislation affecting the financial services industry including, but not limited to, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, government intervention in the U.S. financial system, changes in levels of market interest rates, pricing pressures on loan and deposit products, credit risks of the Company’s lending and leasing activities, customers’ acceptance of the Company’s products and services and competition.

The above-listed risk factors are not necessarily exhaustive, particularly as to possible future events, and new risk factors may emerge from time to time. Certain events may occur that could cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different than those described in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any statements made by the Company that are not historical facts should be considered to be forward-looking statements. The Company is not obligated to update and does not undertake to update any of its forward-looking statements made herein.

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and predominant practices within the banking industry. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Lakeland, Lakeland NJ Investment Corp., Lakeland Investment Corp., Lakeland Equity, Inc., and Lakeland Preferred Equity, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions also affect reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. There have been no material changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates, including assumptions or estimation techniques utilized, as compared to those disclosed in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Management Overview

The quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012, represented a period of earnings improvement for the Company. As discussed in this management discussion and analysis:

 

   

Net income available to common shareholders increased $889,000 or 19% from the second quarter of 2011 to the same period in 2012. Net income available to common shareholders increased $1.8 million or 22% from the first six months of 2011 to the first six months of 2012.

 

   

Non-performing assets declined for the third consecutive quarter. Non-performing assets have declined $14.9 million or 30% from $50.2 million reported at year end.

 

   

As a result of improving loan quality, the provision for loan and lease losses was reduced from $5.4 million in the second quarter of 2011 to $3.9 million in 2012.

 

   

The Company redeemed its remaining 19,000 shares of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A originally issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Troubled Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”). As a result of CPP repayments, dividends on preferred stock and accretion of the preferred stock discount declined from $1.6 million in the first six months of 2011 to $620,000 in 2012. In 2012, the Company also repurchased the outstanding common stock warrant previously issued to the Treasury for the purchase of 1,046,901 shares of its common stock, for $2.8 million, completing the Company’s participation in the Treasury’s CPP.

 

   

The Company continues to experience downward pressure on its net interest margin from the continuing low rate environment. The net interest margin declined from 3.90% in the second quarter of 2011 to 3.70% in the second quarter of 2012.

 

   

Management continues to manage expenses in an effort to offset its lower net interest margins.

Results of Operations

(Second Quarter 2012 Compared to Second Quarter 2011)

Net Income

Net income for the second quarter of 2012 was $5.5 million, compared to net income of $4.9 million for the same period in 2011. Net income available to common shareholders was $5.5 million compared to net income of $4.6 million for the second quarter of 2011. Diluted earnings per share was $0.20 for the second quarter of 2012, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.17 for the same period last year. The increase in net income was primarily a result of a $1.5 million reduction in the provision for loan and lease losses, which totaled $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net interest income declined $673,000 from the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of 2012 due to the continuing low rate environment. This decline was partially offset by declines in non-interest expense and dividends on preferred stock and accretion during that same time period.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the difference between interest income on earning assets and the cost of funds supporting those assets. The Company’s net interest income is determined by: (i) the volume of interest-earning assets that it holds and the yields that it earns on those assets, and (ii) the volume of interest-bearing liabilities that it has assumed and the rates that it pays on those liabilities. Net interest income increases when the Company can use noninterest-bearing deposits to fund or support interest-earning assets. The Company’s net interest income is influenced by the current low interest rate environment. For information on how interest rate change can influence the Company’s net interest income, and how the Company manages it net interest income, please see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Item 3 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company’s net interest margin can also be impacted by its level of non-performing loans. If non-performing loans decline, this could increase the net interest margin.

Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the second quarter of 2012 was $24.0 million, compared to $24.7 million earned in the second quarter of 2011. The net interest margin decreased from 3.90% in the second quarter of 2011 to 3.70% in the second quarter of 2012, primarily as a result of a 36 basis point decline in the yield on interest-earning assets, which was partially offset by a 19 basis point reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin would have been 3.81% and 4.01% for the second quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively, had the Company’s non-performing loans performed in accordance with their terms. The net interest spread, as a result of the low rate environment, declined 18 basis points to 3.54%. Although the net interest spread declined, the decline was mitigated by an increase in income earned on free funds (interest earning assets funded by non-interest bearing liabilities) resulting from an increase in average non-interest bearing deposits of $62.6 million. Also mitigating the decline in the net interest margin was a change in mix in interest-bearing deposits from time deposits to lower interest-bearing transaction accounts. The components of net interest income will be discussed in greater detail below.

Interest income on a tax equivalent basis decreased from $29.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 to $28.2 million in the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 6%. The decrease in interest income was due primarily to a 36 basis point decrease in the yield on interest earning assets, as a result of loans being refinanced at lower rates and lower yields on new loans and investments. The yield on average loans and leases at 4.89% in the second quarter of 2012 was 39 basis points lower than the second quarter of 2011. The yield on average taxable and tax exempt investment securities decreased by 55 basis points and 29 basis points, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2011. Average loans and leases at $2.08 billion increased $94.6 million from the second quarter of 2011, while average investment securities at $502.9 million decreased $28.1 million.

Total interest expense decreased from $5.2 million in the second quarter of 2011 to $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of $989,000, or 19%. The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 0.99% in the second quarter of 2011 to 0.80% in 2012. The decrease in yield was due to the continuing low rate environment along with a $78.5 million reduction in higher yielding time deposits as customers preferred to keep their deposits in short-term transaction accounts. Average savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts increased by $19.1 million and $66.6 million, respectively, from the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of 2012. Average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities declined in all categories.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

In determining the provision for loan and lease losses, management considers national and local economic conditions; trends in the portfolio including orientation to specific loan types or industries; experience, ability and depth of lending management in relation to the complexity of the portfolio; adequacy and adherence to policies, procedures and practices; levels and trends in delinquencies, impaired loans; net charge-offs, and the results of independent third party loan and lease review.

Table of Contents

In the second quarter of 2012, a $3.9 million provision for loan and lease losses was recorded, which was $1.5 million lower than the provision for the same period last year. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company charged off loans and leases of $4.3 million and recovered $281,000 in previously charged off loans and leases compared to $6.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively, during the same period in 2011. The lower provision resulted from a decline in non-performing assets and from lower charge-offs during the quarter. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company sold a group of primarily non-performing loans with a net book value of $4.5 million and recorded a charge-off of $1.9 million. For more information regarding the determination of the provision, see “Risk Elements” below.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased $61,000, or 1%, to $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011. Service charges on deposit accounts at $2.7 million increased $139,000, or 5%, due primarily to the implementation of a new demand deposit pricing structure in the second quarter of 2012. Commissions and fees totaled $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2012 and were $219,000 or 21% higher than the same period last year due primarily to increases in loan fees and investment commission income. Gains on sales of investment securities and gains on leasing related assets decreased $203,000 and $111,000, respectively from the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of 2012. The decline in gains on leasing related assets reflects the reduction in the leasing portfolio. Income on bank owned life insurance at $339,000 decreased $20,000 from the second quarter of 2011 due to a decline in rates for the underlying policies.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaling $16.5 million decreased $262,000 in the second quarter of 2012 from the second quarter of 2011. Furniture and equipment expense at $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2012 decreased $86,000 from the same period last year due primarily to a reduction in equipment service contract expense. Stationery, supplies and postage at $355,000 in the second quarter decreased $40,000 primarily as a result of a reduction in direct mailings. Marketing expense totaling $458,000 decreased $161,000 compared to the second quarter of 2011 primarily due to the timing of marketing campaigns. During the third quarter of 2011 the Company completed its core deposit intangible amortization, which resulted in a $266,000 decrease in that category in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Collection expense at $34,000 and legal expense at $346,000 decreased $26,000 and $65,000, respectively, primarily a result of reduced loan work out expenses. Other real estate and repossessed asset expense at $38,000 decreased $162,000. Other expenses at $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2012 increased $193,000 compared to the second quarter of 2011 due primarily to an increase in consulting expenses, resulting from the implementation of various revenue enhancement projects. The Company’s efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, was 57.2% in the second quarter of 2012, compared to 56.1% for the same period last year as a result of a decline in revenue, offset by continued management of expenses. The Company uses this ratio because it believes that the ratio provides a good comparison of period-to-period performance and because the ratio is widely accepted in the banking industry. The following table shows the calculation of the efficiency ratio for the periods presented:

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rate increased from 30.5% in the second quarter of 2011 to 33.3% in the second quarter of 2012 as a result of increased earnings and because of a reduction of tax advantaged items as a percent of pre-tax income. Tax advantaged items include interest income on tax-exempt securities and income on bank owned life insurance. Also impacting the tax provision was an increase in management’s estimate of earnings for 2012 resulting from improved asset quality.

(Year to Date 2012 Compared to Year to Date 2011)

Net Income

Net income for the first half of 2012 was $10.4 million, compared to net income of $9.6 million for the same period in 2011. Net income available to common shareholders was $9.8 million compared to net income of $8.0 million for the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share was $0.36 for the first half of 2012, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.30 for the same period last year. Dividends on preferred stock and accretion decreased to $620,000 in the first six months of 2012 from $1.6 million for the same period last year. The lower dividends and accretion reflect repayments to the U.S. Department of the Treasury to repurchase preferred stock under the CPP. During the first half of 2012 the Company repaid the remaining $19.0 million in preferred stock to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, resulting in a non cash charge of $501,000, reflecting the acceleration of the preferred stock discount accretion. During the first half of 2011 the Company incurred a similar charge of $745,000, as $20.0 million in repayments to repurchase preferred stock were made during that period.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the first half of 2012 was $48.2 million, compared to $49.5 million earned in the first half of 2011. The net interest margin decreased from 3.90% in the first half of 2011 to 3.73% in the first half of 2012, primarily as a result of a 33 basis point decline in the yield on interest-earning assets, which was partially offset by a 18 basis point reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin would have been 3.83% and 4.00% for the first half of 2012 and 2011, respectively, had the Company’s non-performing loans performed in accordance with their terms. The net interest spread as a result of the low rate environment declined 16 basis points to 3.57%. Although

 

34


Table of Contents

the net interest spread declined, the decline was mitigated by an increase in income earned on free funds (interest earning assets funded by non-interest bearing liabilities) resulting from an increase in average non-interest bearing deposits of $55.3 million. Also mitigating the decline in the net interest margin was a change in mix in interest-bearing deposits from time deposits to lower interest-bearing transaction accounts. The components of net interest income will be discussed in greater detail below.

The following table reflects the components of the Company’s net interest income, setting forth for the periods presented, (1) average assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity, (2) interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities, (3) average yields earned on interest-earning assets and average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, (4) the Company’s net interest spread (i.e., the average yield on interest-earning assets less the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities) and (5) the Company’s net interest margin. Rates are computed on a tax equivalent basis using a tax rate of 35%.

Interest income on a tax equivalent basis decreased from $60.0 million in the first half of 2011 to $56.7 million in the first half of 2012, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 5%. The decrease in interest income was due primarily to a 33 basis point decrease in the yield on interest earning assets for the same reasons discussed in the quarterly analysis. The yield on average loans and leases at 4.94% in the first half of 2012 was 40 basis points lower than the first half of 2011. The yield on average taxable and tax exempt investment securities decreased by 36 basis points and 34 basis points, respectively, compared to the first half of 2011. Average loans and leases at $2.06 billion increased $72.3 million from the first half of 2011, while average investment securities at $511.5 million decreased $26.1 million.

Total interest expense decreased from $10.5 million in the first half of 2011 to $8.5 million in the first half of 2012, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 19%. The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1.00% in the first half of

2011 to 0.82% in 2012 for the same reasons discussed in the quarterly analysis. Average savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts increased by $17.5 million and $55.1 million, respectively, from the first half of 2011 to the first half of 2012, while average time deposits decreased $70.5 million. Average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities declined in all categories.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

In determining the provision for loan and lease losses, management considers national and local economic conditions; trends in the portfolio including orientation to specific loan types or industries; experience, ability and depth of lending management in relation to the complexity of the portfolio; adequacy and adherence to policies, procedures and practices; levels and trends in delinquencies, impaired loans; net charge-offs, and the results of independent third party loan and lease review.

In the first half of 2012, an $8.4 million provision for loan and lease losses was recorded, which was $1.9 million lower than the provision for the same period last year. During the first half of 2012, the Company charged off loans and leases of $9.3 million and recovered $1.0 million in previously charged off loans and leases compared to $12.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively, during the same period in 2011. For more information regarding the determination of the provision, see “Risk Elements” below.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income decreased $112,000, or 1%, to $8.8 million in the first half of 2012 compared to the first half of 2011. Commissions and fees totaled $2.2 million in the first half of 2012 and were $367,000 or 20% higher than the same period last year due to the same reasons discussed in the quarterly comparison. Gains on sales of investment securities and gains on leasing related assets decreased $171,000 and $390,000, respectively, from the first half 2011 to the first half of 2012 for the same reasons discussed in the quarterly comparison. Income on bank owned life insurance at $678,000 decreased $36,000 from the first half of 2011 due to the same reason discussed in the quarterly comparison.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaling $32.7 million decreased $1.0 million in the first half of 2012 from the first half of 2011. Net occupancy expense at $3.3 million decreased $189,000 compared to the first half of 2011 due primarily to decreased snow removal costs resulting from the mild winter. Furniture and equipment expense at $2.2 million in the first half of 2012 decreased $167,000 from the same period last year due to the same reason discussed in the quarterly comparison. Stationery, supplies and postage at $691,000 in the first half of 2012 decreased $69,000 primarily for the same reason discussed in the quarterly comparison. Marketing expense and core deposit intangible amortization declined in the first half of 2012 from the first half of 2011 due to the same reasons discussed in the quarterly comparison. FDIC insurance expense at $1.1 million decreased $441,000 compared to the first half of 2011 primarily as a result of changes made by the FDIC in the method of calculating assessment rates. Collection expense at $173,000 and legal expense at $745,000 increased $48,000 and $39,000, respectively, while other real estate and repossessed asset expense at $76,000 decreased $396,000. The Company’s efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, was 57.44% in the first half of 2012, compared to 56.41% for the same period last year as a result of the same reasons discussed in the quarterly comparison. The Company uses this ratio because it believes that the ratio provides a good comparison of period-to-period performance and because the ratio is widely accepted in the banking industry.

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rate increased from 30.5% in the first half of 2011 to 32.1% in the second half of 2012 for the same reasons discussed above in the quarterly comparison.

Financial Condition

The Company’s total assets increased $27.3 million from $2.83 billion at December 31, 2011, to $2.85 billion at June 30, 2012 due primarily to a $47.4 million increase in total loans. Total deposits increased $27.7 million, with non-interest-bearing transaction accounts increasing $24.7 million.

Loans and Leases

Gross loans and leases at $2.09 billion increased by $47.4 million from December 31, 2011. The increase in gross loans and leases is primarily due to commercial loans secured by real estate at $1.06 billion and residential mortgages at $421.3 million, an increase of $47.6 million and $15.1 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a $23.0 million decrease in real estate construction loans. For more information on the loan portfolio, see Note 7 in Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Risk Elements

Non-performing assets decreased from $50.2 million, or 1.78% of total assets, on December 31, 2011 to $35.3 million, or 1.24% of total assets, on June 30, 2012. The majority of the decrease was in commercial loans secured by real estate, which decreased $7.3 million from December 31, 2011. Commercial, industrial and other, construction real estate and residential mortgages decreased $3.0 million, $2.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Commercial loan non-accruals at June 30, 2012 included 7 loan relationships with balances over $1.0 million, totaling $13.0 million, and 4 loan relationships between $500,000 and $1.0 million, totaling $3.0 million.

Loans and leases past due ninety days or more and still accruing at June 30, 2012 increased $199,000 to $1.6 million from December 31, 2011. Loans and leases past due 90 days or more and still accruing are those loans and leases that are considered both well-secured and in process of collection.

On June 30, 2012, the Company had $10.8 million in loans that were troubled debt restructurings and still accruing interest income compared to $8.9 million on December 31, 2011. Troubled debt restructurings are those loans where the Company has granted concessions to the borrower in payment terms, either in rate or in term, as a result of the financial condition of the borrower.

On June 30, 2012, the Company had $33.8 million in impaired loans and leases (consisting primarily of non-accrual and restructured loans and leases) compared to $43.1 million at year-end 2011. Impaired loans decreased from year-end 2011 primarily as a result of the decrease in non-accrual commercial loans secured by real estate. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company sold a group of primarily non-performing loans with a net book value of $4.5 million and recorded a charge-off of $1.9 million. For more information on impaired loans and leases see Note 7 in Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The impairment of the loans and leases is measured using the present value of future cash flows on certain impaired loans and leases and is based on the fair value of the underlying collateral for the remaining loans and leases. Based on such evaluation, $770,000 has been allocated as a portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses for impairment at June 30, 2012. At June 30, 2012, the Company also had $42.3 million in loans and leases that were rated substandard that were not classified as non-performing or impaired compared to $41.7 million at December 31, 2011.

There were no loans and leases at June 30, 2012, other than those designated non-performing, impaired or substandard, where the Company was aware of any credit conditions of any borrowers or obligors that would indicate a strong possibility of the borrowers not complying with present terms and conditions of repayment and which may result in such loans and leases being included as non-accrual, past due or renegotiated at a future date. The following table sets forth for the periods presented, the historical relationships among the allowance for loan and lease losses, the provision for loan and lease losses, the amount of loans and leases charged-off and the amount of loan and lease recoveries:

The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to loans and leases outstanding reflects management’s evaluation of the underlying credit risk inherent in the loan portfolio. The determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses and periodic provisioning for estimated losses included in the consolidated financial statements is the responsibility of management and the Board of Directors. The evaluation process is undertaken on a quarterly basis.

Methodology employed for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses consists of the following criteria:

 

   

The establishment of reserve amounts for all specifically identified classified loans and leases that have been designated as requiring attention by the Company or its external loan review consultants.

 

   

The establishment of reserves for pools of homogeneous types of loans and leases not subject to specific review, including impaired commercial loans under $250,000, leases, 1 – 4 family residential mortgages and consumer loans.

 

   

The establishment of reserve amounts for the non-classified loans and leases in each portfolio based upon the historical average loss experience of these portfolios and management’s evaluation of key factors described below.

Consideration is given to the results of ongoing credit quality monitoring processes, the adequacy and expertise of the Company’s lending staff, underwriting policies, loss histories, delinquency trends, and the cyclical nature of economic

and business conditions. Since many of the Company’s loans depend on the sufficiency of collateral as a secondary means of repayment, any adverse trend in the real estate markets could affect underlying values available to protect the Company against loss.

While the overall balance of the allowance for loan losses remained substantially the same at June 30, 2012 as levels at December 31, 2011, the components of the allowance changed to reflect the changes both in the portfolios and in the levels of non-performing loans within the portfolio segments. The allowance for loan and leases losses for the leasing portfolio declined from $688,000 to $267,000 to reflect the continuing decline in the size of the portfolio and the decline in net charge-offs in that portfolio. The decline in the allowance for the real estate-construction segment reflected both a decline in non-performing loans from $12.4 million at year-end 2011 to $9.5 million at June 30, 2012 as well as a decline in the overall portfolio from $79.1 million at year-end 2011 to $56.2 million at June 30, 2012. The allowance for loan and lease losses increased for both the commercial loans secured by real estate, and the residential mortgages because those were the areas where the Company experienced the most growth and because of continuing economic pressures on the real estate market in the Northeast.

Non-performing loans and leases decreased from $49.0 million on December 31, 2011 to $34.0 million on June 30, 2012. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of total loans was 1.37% of total loans on June 30, 2012, compared to 1.39% as of December 31, 2011. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of non-performing loans increased from 58% as of December 31, 2011 to 84% as of June 30, 2012. Management believes, based on appraisals and estimated selling costs, that its non-performing loans and leases are adequately secured and reserves on these loans and leases are adequate. The preceding statement constitutes a forward-looking statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Based upon the process employed and giving recognition to all accompanying factors related to the loan and lease portfolio, management considers the allowance for loan and lease losses to be adequate at June 30, 2012. The preceding statement constitutes a forward-looking statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Investment Securities

For detailed information on the composition and maturity distribution of the Company’s investment securities portfolio, see the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Form 10-Q. Total investment securities decreased from $535.3 million on December 31, 2011 to $508.3 million on June 30, 2012, a decrease of $27.0 million, or 5%.

Deposits

Total deposits increased from $2.25 billion on December 31, 2011 to $2.28 billion on June 30, 2012, an increase of $27.7 million, or 1%. Savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts totaling $1.48 billion increased $35.6 million from December 31, 2011, while time deposits totaling $327.0 million decreased $32.5 million. Noninterest bearing deposits increased $24.7 million, or 5%, to $474.2 million, resulting primarily from an increase in commercial noninterest bearing deposits.

Liquidity

“Liquidity” measures whether an entity has sufficient cash flow to meet its financial obligations and commitments on a timely basis. The Company is liquid when its subsidiary bank has the cash available to meet the borrowing and cash withdrawal requirements of customers and the Company can pay for current and planned expenditures and satisfy its debt obligations.

Lakeland funds loan demand and operation expenses from several sources:

 

   

Net income. Cash provided by operating activities was $25.3 million in for the first six months of 2012 which was comparable to the same period in 2011.

 

   

Deposits. Lakeland can offer new products or change its rate structure in order to increase deposits. In the first six months of 2012, Lakeland generated $27.7 million in deposit growth.

 

40


Table of Contents
   

Sales of securities and overnight funds. At June 30, 2012, the Company had $417.0 million in securities designated “available for sale.”

 

   

Repayments on loans and leases can also be a source of liquidity to fund further loan growth.

 

   

Overnight credit lines. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLB), Lakeland has the ability to borrow overnight based on the market value of collateral pledged. Lakeland had no overnight borrowings from the FHLB on June 30, 2012. Lakeland also has overnight federal funds lines available for it to borrow up to $162.0 million. Lakeland had borrowings against these lines of $47.0 million at June 30, 2012. Lakeland may also borrow from the discount window of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York based on the market value of collateral pledged. Lakeland had no borrowings with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of June 30, 2012.

 

   

Other borrowings. Lakeland can also generate funds by utilizing long-term debt or securities sold under agreements to repurchase that would be collateralized by security or mortgage collateral. At times the market values of securities collateralizing our securities sold under agreements to repurchase may decline due to changes in interest rates and may necessitate our lenders to issue a “margin call” which requires Lakeland to pledge additional collateral to meet that margin call.

Management and the Board monitor the Company’s liquidity through the asset/liability committee, which monitors the Company’s compliance with certain regulatory ratios and other various liquidity guidelines.

The cash flow statements for the periods presented provide an indication of the Company’s sources and uses of cash, as well as an indication of the ability of the Company to maintain an adequate level of liquidity. A discussion of the cash flow statement for the six months ended June 30, 2012 follows.

Cash and cash equivalents totaling $76.7 million on June 30, 2012, increased $4.2 million from December 31, 2011. Operating activities provided $25.3 million in net cash. Investing activities used $35.2 million in net cash, primarily reflecting an increase in loans and leases. Financing activities provided $14.0 million in net cash, reflecting a net increase of $27.7 million in deposits and a $20.8 million increase in federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, partially offset by net repayments of $10.0 million in other borrowings and the redemption of $19.0 million in preferred stock. The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan commitments and deposit maturities. This constitutes a forward-looking statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Capital Resources

Total stockholders’ equity decreased from $259.8 million on December 31, 2011 to $246.9 million on June 30, 2012, a decrease of $12.8 million, or 5%. Book value per common share increased to $9.15 on June 30, 2012 from $8.99 on December 31, 2011. The decrease in stockholders’ equity from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012 was primarily due to the $19.0 million redemption of preferred stock, the warrant repurchase totaling $2.8 million and payment of dividends on common and preferred stock of $2.7 million, partially offset by $10.4 million in net income.

The Company and Lakeland are subject to various regulatory capital requirements that are monitored by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can lead to certain supervisory actions by regulators; any supervisory action could have a direct material adverse effect on the Company or Lakeland’s financial statements. Management believes, as of June 30, 2012, that the Company and Lakeland meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

In June 2012, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank, the FDIC, and the OCC approved three notices of proposed rulemaking (NPRs) that would significantly revise the regulatory capital requirements, implement the Basel III capital reforms and incorporate various Dodd-Frank capital provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the effect these NPRs will have on the Company.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reported amounts are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of measurements and ratios based on tangible equity and tangible assets, is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company manages interest rate risk and market risk by identifying and quantifying interest rate risk exposures using simulation analysis and economic value at risk models. Net interest income simulation considers the relative sensitivities of the balance sheet including the effects of interest rate caps on adjustable rate mortgages and the relatively stable aspects of core deposits. As such, net interest income simulation is designed to address the probability of interest rate

changes and the behavioral response of the balance sheet to those changes. Market Value of Portfolio Equity represents the fair value of the net present value of assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet items. Changes in estimates and assumptions made for interest rate sensitivity modeling could have a significant impact on projected results and conclusions. These assumptions could include prepayment rates, sensitivity of non-maturity deposits and other similar assumptions. Therefore, if our assumptions should change, this technique may not accurately reflect the impact of general interest rate movements on the Company’s net interest income or net portfolio value.

The starting point (or “base case”) for the following table is an estimate of the following year’s net interest income assuming that both interest rates and the Company’s interest-sensitive assets and liabilities remain at period-end levels. The net interest income estimated for the next twelve months (the base case) is $95.9 million. The information provided for net interest income assumes that changes in interest rates of plus 200 basis points and minus 200 basis points change gradually in equal increments (“rate ramp”) over the twelve month period.

The base case for the following table is an estimate of the Company’s net portfolio value for the periods presented using current discount rates, and assuming the Company’s interest-sensitive assets and liabilities remain at period-end levels. The net portfolio value at June 30, 2012 (the base case) was $312.6 million. The information provided for the net portfolio value assumes fluctuations or “rate shocks” of plus 200 basis points and minus 200 basis points for changes in interest rates as shown in the table below. Rate shocks assume that current interest rates change immediately.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure controls and procedures. As of the end of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and are operating in an effective manner and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
