NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

Substantially all of the assets, liabilities and operations of LCNB Corp. ("LCNB") are attributable to its wholly-owned subsidiary, LCNB National Bank (the "Bank"). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LCNB and the Bank.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01.

The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that day.

Certain prior period data presented in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

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

Results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, accounting policies, and financial notes thereto included in LCNB's 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Note 2 – Acquisitions

On December 29, 2014, LCNB and BNB Bancorp, Inc. (“BNB”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which BNB was acquired by LCNB on April 30, 2015. Immediately following the merger of BNB into LCNB, Brookville National Bank ("Brookville"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of BNB, was merged into LCNB National Bank. Brookville operated a main office and a branch office, both in Brookville, Ohio. These offices became branches of the Bank after the merger.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the shareholders of BNB common stock received, for each share of BNB common stock, (i) $15.75 in cash and (ii) 2.005 LCNB common shares.

On October 28, 2013, LCNB and Colonial Banc Corp. (“Colonial”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which LCNB purchased from Colonial on January 24, 2014 all of the issued and outstanding shares of Eaton National Bank & Trust Co. ("Eaton National"). Immediately following the acquisition, Eaton National was merged into the Bank. Eaton National operated five full–service branches with a main office and another facility in Eaton, Ohio and branch offices in each of West Alexandria, Ohio, New Paris, Ohio, and Lewisburg, Ohio. These offices became branches of the Bank after the merger.

Note 2 – Acquisitions (continued)

The mergers with BNB and Eaton National were accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration paid were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the respective merger dates, as summarized in the following table (in thousands):



	BNB		Eaton National
Consideration Paid:
Common shares issued	$	9,063	—
Cash paid to shareholder(s)	4,403		24,750
Total consideration paid	13,466		24,750

Identifiable Assets Acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents	13,396		15,635
Investment securities	58,239		35,859
Federal Reserve Bank stock	130		41
Federal Home Loan Bank stock	—		784
Loans	34,661		115,944
Premises and equipment	2,311		1,314
Bank owned life insurance	—		3,618
Core deposit intangible	1,418		2,466
Other real estate owned	—		262
Other assets	527		1,624
Total identifiable assets acquired	110,682		177,547

Liabilities Assumed:
Deposits	99,133		165,335
Short-term borrowings	—		651
Deferred income taxes	576		—
Other liabilities	57		263
Total liabilities assumed	99,766		166,249

Total Identifiable Net Assets Acquired	10,916		11,298

Goodwill resulting from merger	2,550		13,452

The amount of goodwill recorded reflects LCNB's entrance into new markets and related synergies that are expected to result from the acquisitions and represent the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired. The goodwill will not be amortizable on LCNB's financial records, but is deductible for tax purposes. The core deposit intangible for BNB and Eaton National is being amortized over nine and eight years, respectively, using the straight-line method.

Prior to the end of the one-year measurement period for finalizing the purchase allocation for BNB, if information becomes available which would indicate adjustments to the purchase price allocation, such adjustments will be included in the purchase price retrospectively.

Direct costs related to the acquisitions were expensed as incurred and are recorded as a merger-related expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Note 2 – Acquisitions (continued)

The results of operations are included in the consolidated statement of income from the dates of the mergers. The estimated amount of BNB revenue (net interest income plus non-interest income) and net income, excluding merger-related expenses, included in LCNB's consolidated statement of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 were as follows (in thousands):

The following table presents unaudited pro forma information as if the merger with BNB had occurred on January 1, 2014 (in thousands). This pro forma information gives effect to certain adjustments, including acquisition accounting fair value adjustments, amortization of the core deposit intangible, and related income tax effects. It does not include merger-related expenses. The pro forma information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations that would have occurred had the merger with BNB occurred in 2014. In particular, expected operational cost savings are not reflected in the pro forma amounts.

Note 3 - Investment Securities (continued)

Management has determined that the unrealized losses at June 30, 2015 are primarily due to fluctuations in market interest rates and do not reflect credit quality deterioration of the securities. Because LCNB does not have the intent to sell the investments and it is more likely than not that LCNB will not be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity, LCNB does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

Contractual maturities of investment securities at June 30, 2015 were as follows (in thousands). Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities when issuers have the right to call or prepay obligations.

All advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati are secured by a blanket pledge of LCNB's 1-4 family first lien mortgage loans in the amount of approximately $232 million and $212 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Additionally, LCNB is required to hold minimum levels of FHLB stock, based on the outstanding borrowings.

Loans acquired through mergers are recorded at fair value with no carryover of the acquired entity's previously established allowance for loan losses. The excess of expected cash flows over the estimated fair value of acquired loans is recognized as interest income over the remaining contractual lives of the loans using the level yield method. Subsequent decreases in expected cash flows will require additions to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent improvements in expected cash flows result in the recognition of additional interest income over the then-remaining contractual lives of the loans.

Impaired loans acquired are accounted for under FASB ASC 310-30. Factors considered in evaluating whether an acquired loan was impaired include delinquency status and history, updated borrower credit status, collateral information, and updated loan-to-value information. The difference between contractually required payments at the time of acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. The interest component of the cash flows expected to be collected is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized as interest income over the remaining contractual life of the loan using the level yield method. Subsequent decreases in expected cash flows will require additions to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent improvements in expected cash flows will result in a reclassification from the nonaccretable difference to the accretable yield.

The following table provides certain information at the acquisition date on loans acquired from BNB on April 30, 2015 and Eaton National on January 24, 2014, not including loans considered to be impaired (in thousands):



	BNB		Eaton National

LCNB sold impaired loans with a carrying value of approximately $4.5 million during the second quarter 2015. The decrease in non-accrual loans at June 30, 2015 as compared to December 31, 2014 is primarily due to this sale.

The risk characteristics of LCNB's material loan portfolio segments are as follows:

Commercial and Industrial Loans. LCNB’s commercial and industrial loan portfolio consists of loans for various purposes, including loans to fund working capital requirements (such as inventory and receivables financing) and purchases of machinery and equipment. LCNB offers a variety of commercial and industrial loan arrangements, including term loans, balloon loans, and lines of credit. Most commercial and industrial loans have a variable rate, with adjustments occurring monthly, annually, every three years, or every five years. Adjustments are generally based on a publicly available index rate plus a margin. The margin varies based on the terms and collateral securing the loan. Commercial and industrial loans are offered to businesses and professionals for short and medium terms on both a collateralized and uncollateralized basis. Commercial and industrial loans typically are underwritten on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the business. Collateral, when obtained, may include liens on furniture, fixtures, equipment, inventory, receivables, or other assets. As a result, such loans involve complexities, variables, and risks that require thorough underwriting and more robust servicing than other types of loans.

Commercial, Secured by Real Estate Loans. Commercial real estate loans include loans secured by a variety of commercial, retail, and office buildings, religious facilities, multifamily (more than two-family) residential properties, construction and land development loans, and other land loans. Commercial real estate loan products generally amortize over five to twenty-five years and are payable in monthly principal and interest installments. Some have balloon payments due within one to ten years after the origination date. Many have adjustable interest rates with adjustment periods ranging from one to ten years, some of which are subject to established “floor” interest rates.

Commercial real estate loans are underwritten based on the ability of the property, in the case of income producing property, or the borrower’s business to generate sufficient cash flow to amortize the debt. Secondary emphasis is placed upon global debt service, collateral value, financial strength of any guarantors, and other factors. Commercial real estate loans are generally originated with a 75% maximum loan to appraised value ratio.

Residential Real Estate Loans. Residential real estate loans include loans secured by first or second mortgage liens on one to two-family residential property. Home equity lines of credit and mortgage loans secured by owner-occupied agricultural property are included in this category. First and second mortgage loans are generally amortized over five to thirty years with monthly principal and interest payments. Home equity lines of credit generally have a five year draw period with interest only payments followed by a repayment period with monthly payments based on the amount outstanding. LCNB offers both fixed and adjustable rate mortgage loans. Adjustable rate loans are available with adjustment periods ranging between one to ten years and adjust according to an established index plus a margin, subject to certain floor and ceiling rates. Home equity lines of credit have a variable rate based on the Wall Street Journal prime rate plus a margin.

LCNB does not originate reverse mortgage loans or residential real estate loans generally considered to be “subprime.”

Residential real estate loans are underwritten primarily based on the borrower’s ability to repay, prior credit history, and the value of the collateral. LCNB requires private mortgage insurance for first mortgage loans that have a loan to appraised value ratio of greater than 80%.

Consumer Loans. LCNB’s portfolio of consumer loans generally includes secured and unsecured loans to individuals for household, family and other personal expenditures. Secured loans include loans to fund the purchase of automobiles, recreational vehicles, boats, and similar acquisitions. Consumer loans made by LCNB generally have fixed rates and terms ranging up to 72 months, depending upon the nature of the collateral, size of the loan, and other relevant factors.

Consumer loans generally have higher interest rates, but pose additional risks of collectability and loss when compared to certain other types of loans. Collateral, if present, is generally subject to damage, wear, and depreciation. The borrower’s ability to repay is of primary importance in the underwriting of consumer loans.

Agricultural Loans. LCNB’s portfolio of agricultural loans includes loans for financing agricultural production or for financing the purchase of equipment used in the production of agricultural products. LCNB’s agricultural loans are generally secured by farm machinery, livestock, crops, vehicles, or other agricultural related collateral.

Note 4 – Loans (continued)

LCNB uses a risk-rating system to quantify loan quality. A loan is assigned to a risk category based on relevant information about the ability of the borrower to service the debt including, but not limited to, current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends. The categories used are:


•	Pass – loans categorized in this category are higher quality loans that do not fit any of the other categories described below.


•	Other Assets Especially Mentioned (OAEM) - loans in this category are currently protected but are potentially weak. These loans constitute a risk but not to the point of justifying a classification of substandard. The credit risk may be relatively minor yet constitute an undue risk in light of the circumstances surrounding a specific asset.


•	Substandard – loans in this category are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the possibility that LCNB will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.


•	Doubtful – loans classified in this category have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

A breakdown of the loan portfolio by credit quality indicators at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is as follows (in thousands):

Each restructured loan is separately negotiated with the borrower and includes terms and conditions that reflect the borrower's ability to pay the debt as modified. Modifications may include interest only payments for a period of time, temporary or permanent reduction of the loan's interest rate, capitalization of delinquent interest, or extensions of the maturity date.

LCNB is not committed to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loan terms were modified in a troubled debt restructuring.

A restructured commercial real estate loan with a recorded balance of $77,000 was classified as non-accrual at June 30, 2015, which was within twelve months of the loan's modification date. There were no troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted within twelve months of the restructuring date for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Note 9 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

LCNB is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. They involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. Exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to financial instruments for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contract amount of those instruments.

The Bounce Protection product, a customer deposit overdraft program, is offered as a service and does not constitute a contract between the customer and LCNB.

LCNB uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent off-balance-sheet credit risk at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (in thousands):



	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Commitments to extend credit:
Commercial loans	$	11,410	5,152
Other loans
Fixed rate	6,963		877
Adjustable rate	1,798		2,011
Unused lines of credit:
Fixed rate	4,260		6,496
Adjustable rate	78,139		67,981
Unused overdraft protection amounts on demand and NOW accounts	10,100		10,206
Standby letters of credit	638		563
	$	113,308	93,286

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Unused lines of credit include amounts not drawn on line of credit loans. Commitments to extend credit and unused lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees generally are fully secured and have varying maturities.

LCNB evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, residential realty, income-producing commercial property, and property, plant, and equipment.

Capital expenditures include the construction or acquisition of new office buildings, improvements to LCNB's offices, purchases of furniture and equipment, and additions or improvements to LCNB's information technology system. Commitments outstanding for capital expenditures as of June 30, 2015 totaled approximately $106,000, which does not include estimated costs for a new operations center LCNB is planning to build in Lebanon, Ohio. Cost estimates are currently in process for this project.

Management believes that LCNB has sufficient liquidity to fund its lending and capital expenditure commitments.

Note 11 – Retirement Plans

LCNB participates in a noncontributory defined benefit multi-employer retirement plan that covers substantially all regular full-time employees hired before January 1, 2009.

Employees of LCNB also participate in a defined contribution retirement plan. Employees hired on or after January 1, 2009 receive a 50% employer match on their contributions into the 401(k) plan, up to a maximum LCNB contribution of 3% of each individual employee's annual compensation. Employees hired before January 1, 2009 who received a benefit reduction under certain amendments to the defined benefit retirement plan receive an automatic contribution of 5% or 7% of annual compensation, depending on the sum of an employee's age and vesting service, into the 401(k) plan, regardless of the contributions made by the employees. This contribution is made annually and these employees do not receive any employer matches to their 401(k) contributions.

Note 12 - Stock Based Compensation

LCNB established an Ownership Incentive Plan (the "2002 Plan") during 2002 that allowed for stock-based awards to eligible employees, as determined by the Board of Directors. The awards were made in the form of stock options, share awards, and/or appreciation rights. The 2002 Plan provided for the issuance of up to 200,000 shares. The 2002 Plan expired on April 16, 2012. Any outstanding unexercised options, however, continue to be exercisable in accordance with their terms.

The 2015 Ownership Incentive Plan ("the 2015 Plan") was ratified by LCNB's shareholders at the annual meeting on April 28, 2015 and allows for stock-based awards to eligible employees, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Awards may be made in the form of stock options, appreciation rights, restricted shares, and/or restricted share units. The 2015 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 450,000 shares. The 2015 Plan will terminate on April 28, 2025 and is subject to earlier termination by the Compensation Committee. No awards have been granted under the 2015 Plan.

The aggregate intrinsic value (the amount by which the current market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option) for options outstanding at June 30, 2015 that were "in the money" (market price greater than exercise price) was $349,000. The aggregate intrinsic value at that date for only the options that were exercisable was $314,000. The aggregate intrinsic value for options outstanding at June 30, 2014 that were in the money was $429,000 and the aggregate intrinsic value at that date for only the options that were exercisable was $343,000.

Note 13 - Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is adjusted for the dilutive effects of stock options, warrants, and restricted stock. The diluted average number of common shares outstanding has been increased for the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants with proceeds used to purchase treasury shares at the average market price for the period. The computations are as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data):



	For the Three Months Ended June 30,			For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014	2015	2014
Net income	$	3,123	2,611	5,957	3,934

Stock options	18,955		18,349	17,629	20,099
Stock warrants	91,041		90,612	86,682	96,960
Adjusted weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share	9,804,728		9,402,343	9,609,050	9,407,964
Earnings per common share:
Basic	$	0.33	0.28	0.63	0.42
Diluted	0.32		0.28	0.62	0.42

Options to purchase 12,962 and 18,118 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $18.41 and $18.19 per share were outstanding at June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because the exercise prices of the options were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements

LCNB measures certain assets at fair value using various valuation techniques and assumptions, depending on the nature of the asset. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value are assigned to one of three broad levels:


•	Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the reporting date.

•

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices (such as interest rates or yield curves) that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived from or corroborated by observable market data.


•	Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.

The majority of LCNB's financial debt securities are classified as available-for-sale. The securities are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported net of income taxes in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements (continued)

LCNB utilizes a pricing service for determining the fair values of most of its investment securities. Fair value for U.S. Treasury notes are determined based on market quotations (level 1). Fair value for most of the other investment securities is calculated using the discounted cash flow method for each security. The discount rates for these cash flows are estimated by the pricing service using rates observed in the market (level 2). Cash flow streams are dependent on estimated prepayment speeds and the overall structure of the securities given existing market conditions. In addition, LCNB has invested in trust preferred securities, equity securities, and four mutual funds that are not priced by the pricing service. Market quotations (level1) are used to determine fair values for the trust preferred securities and equity securities. Investments in mutual funds that are publicly traded in active markets and that publish daily net asset values are considered to have level 1 inputs. An investment in a mutual fund that is not traded in an active market is considered to have level 2 inputs because an investor can have its interest in the fund redeemed for the balance of its capital account at any quarter-end assuming the fund is given a 60 day notice. The investment in this fund is carried at fair value, which approximates cost.

Assets that may be recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include impaired loans, other real estate owned, and other repossessed assets. A loan is considered impaired when management believes it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are carried at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan's existing rate or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, if this value is less than the loan balance. The inputs are considered to be level 3.

Other real estate owned is adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loan to foreclosed assets, usually based on an appraisal of the property. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value. These inputs are also considered to be level 3.

The fair value of off-balance-sheet financial instruments at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was not material.

Fair values of financial instruments are based on various assumptions, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Therefore, the fair values presented may not represent amounts that could be realized in actual transactions. In addition, because the required disclosures exclude certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments, any aggregation of the fair value amounts presented would not represent the underlying value of LCNB. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of certain financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents

The carrying amounts presented are deemed to approximate fair value.

Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements (continued)

Investment securities

Fair values for securities, excluding Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock, are based on quoted market prices, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities and/or discounted cash flow analyses or other methods. The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock approximates fair value based on the respective redemptive provisions.

Loans

Fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, incorporating assumptions of current and projected prepayment speeds. These current rates approximate market rates.

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities, which approximates market rates.

Borrowings

The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements, and U.S. Treasury demand note borrowings are deemed to approximate fair value of short-term borrowings. For long-term debt, fair values are estimated based on the discounted value of expected net cash flows using current interest rates.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-01, "Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)"

ASU No. 2014-01 was issued in January 2014 and provides guidance on accounting for investments in flow-through limited liability entities that manage or invest in affordable housing projects that qualify for low-income housing tax credits. Entities are permitted to make an accounting policy election to account for such investments using the proportional amortization method, as defined, if certain enumerated conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an investor amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). Investments not accounted for using the proportional amortization method should be accounted for as an equity method investment or a cost method investment in accordance with Subtopic 970-323. ASU No. 2014-01 was effective for public companies for annual periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014 and is to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. LCNB currently does not have any investments in qualified affordable housing projects and adoption of ASU No. 2014-01 did not have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-04, "Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)"

ASU No. 2014-04 was issued in January 2014 and clarifies that an in-substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. In addition, the update requires interim and annual disclosure of both the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate properties that are in the process of foreclosure. ASU No. 2014-04 was effective for public companies for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Adoption of ASU No. 2014-04 did not have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity"

ASU No. 2014-08 was issued in April 2014 and changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and provides for expanded disclosures in this area. The new guidance provides that only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations and that these strategic shifts should have a major effect on an organization's operations and financial results. ASU No. 2014-08 was effective in the first quarter of 2015 for public companies with calendar year-ends.

ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)"

ASU No. 2014-09 was issued in May 2014 and and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance for contracts to transfer goods or services or other nonfinancial assets. Lease contracts, insurance contracts, and most financial instruments are not included in the scope of this update. ASU No. 2014-09 provides that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance enumerates five steps that entities should follow in achieving this core principle. Additional disclosures providing information about contracts with customers are required. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Transitional guidance is included in the update; early adoption is not permitted. Since LCNB's products are substantially financial in nature, adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-11, "Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures"

ASU No. 2014-11 was issued in June 2014 and requires two accounting changes:


•	the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions is changed to secured borrowing accounting, and


•	for repurchase financing arrangements, separate accounting is required for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty, which results in secured borrowing accounting.

Additional disclosures are required. ASU No. 2014-11 was effective for public business entities for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. Changes in accounting for transactions outstanding on the effective date are to be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Since LCNB already accounts for repurchase agreements as borrowings, this update did not have a material impact on LCNB's results of operation or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force"

ASU No. 2014-12 was issued in June 2014 and requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition and that current guidance for awards with performance conditions be followed. ASU No. 2014-12 is effective for all entities for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in the update either prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. None of LCNB's currently outstanding stock option grants contain the performance targets described in this update and adoption of ASU No. 2014-11 is not expected to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-13, "Consolidation (Topic 810): Measuring the Financial Assets and the Financial Liabilities of a Consolidated Collateralized Financing Entity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)"

ASU No. 2014-13 was issued in August 2014 and applies to entities that are required to (1) consolidate a collateralized financing entity ("CFE") under the guidance for Variable Interest Entities, (2) measure all of the financial assets and financial liabilities of the CFE at fair value, and (3) reflect the changes in fair value in earnings. Under ASU 2014-13, entities that meet these criteria can elect to measure both the financial assets and the financial liabilities of the CFE using the more observable of the fair value of the financial assets and the fair value of the financial liabilities, thereby eliminating the difference between the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities. If that alternative is not elected, then ASU 2014-13 indicates that the fair value of the financial assets and the fair value of the financial liabilities of the consolidated CFE should be measured in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and differences between the fair value of the financial assets and the financial liabilities of the consolidated CFE should be reflected in earnings and attributed to the reporting entity in the consolidated statement of income or loss. The provisions of ASU 2014-13 are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. LCNB currently does not have any CFE investments and adoption of ASU No. 2014-13 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-14, "Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)"

ASU No. 2014-14 was issued in August 2014 and affects creditors with government-guaranteed residential mortgage loans, including those guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. ASU No. 2014-14 requires that a residential mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if certain conditions described in the update are met. The amendments in ASU No. 2014-14 were effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within such periods, starting after December 15, 2014. LCNB currently does not hold any government-guaranteed residential mortgage loans and adoption of ASU No. 2014-14 did not have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern"

ASU No. 2014-15 was issued in August 2014 and requires management to evaluate for each annual and interim reporting period whether it is probable that the entity will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that financial statements are issued (or are available to be issued, where applicable). Certain disclosures, as described in the update, are required if management identifies substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. ASU No. 2014-15 will take effect in the annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. Adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-16, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)"

ASU No. 2014-16 was issued in November 2014 and requires an entity to determine the nature of the host contract by considering all stated and implied substantive terms and features of the hybrid financial instrument, weighing each term and feature on the basis of the relevant facts and circumstances, when evaluating whether the host contract is more akin to a debt or equity instrument. ASU No. 2014-16 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The effects of initially adopting ASU No. 2014-16 should be applied on a modified retrospective basis to existing hybrid financial instruments issued in the form of a share as of the beginning of the fiscal year for which the update is effective. Retrospective application to all relevant prior periods is permitted. Early adoption, including adoption in an interim period, is permitted. LCNB currently does not have any outstanding hybrid financial instruments issued as a share and adoption of ASU No. 2014-16 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2014-17, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)"

ASU No. 2014-17 was issued in November 2014 and applies to the separate financial statements of an acquired entity and its subsidiaries that are a business or nonprofit activity upon the occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. The update allows an acquired entity the option to apply pushdown accounting in the reporting period in which the change-in-control event occurs. If pushdown accounting is not applied in the reporting period in which the change-in-control event occurred, an acquired entity has the option to apply pushdown accounting in a subsequent reporting period provided the change in considered a change in accounting principle in accordance with Topic 250, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections." Certain disclosures are required if pushdown accounting is elected. An election to apply pushdown accounting is irrevocable. ASU No. 2014-17 was effective on November 18, 2014. After the effective date, an acquired entity can make an election to apply the guidance to future change-in-control events or to its most recent change-in-control event. LCNB currently does not have any subsidiaries issuing separate financial statements and adoption of ASU No. 2014-17 did not have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2015-01, "Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items"

ASU No. 2015-01 was issued in January 2015 and eliminates from the income statement the concept of extraordinary items. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Adoption of ASU No. 2015-01 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations.

ASU No. 2015-02, "Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis"

ASU No. 2015-02 was issued in February 2015 and provides additional guidance for consolidation of legal entities. It (1) modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities or voting interest entities, (2) eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (3) affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with variable interest entities, and (4) provides a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Adoption of ASU No. 2015-02 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2015-03, "Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs"

ASU No. 2015-03 was issued in April 2015 and requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 is to be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented is adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. Adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2015-05 was issued in April 2015 and provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Examples of cloud computing arrangements include software as a service, platform as a service, infrastructure as a service, and other similar hosting arrangements. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of ASU No. 2015-05 is not expected to have a material impact on LCNB's results of operations or financial position.

ASU No. 2015-07 was issued in May 2015 and applies to entities that measure an investment's fair value using the net asset value per share, or an equivalent, as a practical expedient. ASU No. 2015-07 eliminates the requirement to classify such investments within the fair value hierarchy. Formerly, Topic 820 required certain disclosures for all investments eligible to be assessed at fair value with the net asset value per share practical expedient. ASU No. 2015-07 requires these disclosures only for investments that are actually measured using the practical expedient. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented.

Critical Accounting Policies

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collection of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio, based on evaluations of the collectability of loans and prior loan loss experience. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Table of Contents

LCNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as doubtful, substandard, or special mention. For such loans an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows or collateral value is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors, which include trends in underperforming loans, trends in the volume and terms of loans, economic trends and conditions, concentrations of credit, trends in the quality of loans, and borrower financial statement exceptions.

Based on its evaluations, management believes that the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to absorb estimated losses inherent in the current loan portfolio.

Acquired Credit Impaired Loans. LCNB accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be measured at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquired loans are reviewed to determine if there is evidence of deterioration in credit quality since inception and if it is probable that LCNB will be unable to collect all amounts due under the contractual loan agreements. The analysis includes expected prepayments and estimated cash flows including principal and interest payments at the date of acquisition. The amount in excess of the estimated future cash flows is not accreted into earnings. The amount in excess of the estimated future cash flows over the book value of the loan is accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loan (accretable yield). LCNB records these loans on the acquisition date at their net realizable value. Thus, an allowance for estimated future losses is not established on the acquisition date. Subsequent to the date of acquisition, expected future cash flows on loans acquired are updated and any losses or reductions in estimated cash flows which arise subsequent to the date of acquisition are reflected as a charge through the provision for loan losses. An increase in the expected cash flows adjusts the level of the accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the remaining life of the loan. Due to the number, size, and complexity of loans within the acquired loan portfolio, there is always a possibility of inherent undetected losses.

Accounting for Intangibles. LCNB’s intangible assets at June 30, 2015 are composed primarily of goodwill and core deposit intangibles related to acquisitions of other financial institutions. It also includes mortgage servicing rights recorded from sales of mortgage loans to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and mortgage servicing rights acquired through the acquisition of Eaton National Bank & Trust Co. ("Eaton National"). Goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is reviewed annually for impairment. Core deposit intangibles are being amortized on a straight line basis over their respective estimated weighted average lives. Mortgage servicing rights are capitalized by allocating the total cost of loans between mortgage servicing rights and the loans based on their estimated fair values. Capitalized mortgage servicing rights are amortized to loan servicing income in proportion to and over the period of estimated servicing income, subject to periodic review for impairment.

Results of Operations

Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $3,123,000 (total basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.33 and $0.32, respectively) and $5,957,000 (total basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.63 and $0.62), respectively. This compares to net income of $2,611,000 (total basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.28) and $3,934,000 (total basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.42) for the same three and six-month periods in 2014. Results for 2015 and 2014 were significantly affected by the acquisitions of BNB Bancorp, Inc. ("BNB") on April 30, 2015 and Eaton National on January 24, 2014. In addition, LCNB sold impaired loans with a carrying value of approximately $4.5 million during the second quarter 2015. The loan sale reduces LCNB's level of watched credits and improves credit quality metrics.

Net interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 increased $1,594,000 and $2,559,000, respectively, from the comparative periods in 2014 due primarily to non-accrual interest recognized on the loan sale mentioned above, an increase in the volume of average interest earning assets, primarily loans, and an increase in the net interest margin.

The provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $422,000 and $410,000, respectively, greater than the comparable periods in 2014, primarily due to a higher level of charge-offs during the second quarter 2015. Net loan charge-offs for the first half of 2015 and 2014 totaled $988,000 and $531,000, respectively. Charge-offs increased primarily because of the loan sale. Non-accrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest decreased $3,713,000, from $5,802,000 or 0.83% of total loans at December 31, 2014 to $2,089,000 or 0.28% of total loans at June 30, 2015. Other real estate owned (which includes property acquired through foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure) remained relatively unchanged, totaling $1,364,000 and $1,370,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Non-interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $530,000 and $759,000, respectively, greater than the comparable periods in 2014 primarily due to increases in trust income, gains from sales of investment securities, and gains from sale of loans. The increase in trust income was due to growth in the fair value of assets serviced. The increase in gains from sales of investment securities was due to a higher volume of sales during the 2015 period and the increase in gains from sales of loans was primarily due to a gain recognized on the loan sale.

Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $826,000 greater than the comparable period in 2014 primarily due to merger-related expenses from the acquisition of BNB and to increases in salaries and employee benefits. Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $197,000 less than the comparable period in 2014 primarily due to merger-related expenses for the six month period in 2015 being $770,000 less than merger-related expenses for the comparable 2014 period and secondarily due to smaller decreases in other accounts. These decreases were largely offset by increased salaries and employee benefits primarily due to salary and wage increases, employees retained from the BNB and Eaton National acquisitions, an increase in the number of employees outside of the acquisitions, and an increase in retirement plan expenses.

The following table presents the changes in taxable-equivalent basis interest income and expense for each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the amount of change attributable to volume and rate changes for the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014. Changes not solely attributable to rate or volume have been allocated to volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of absolute dollar amounts of the changes in each.

Net interest income	$	838		781		1,619

Net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $10,963,000, an increase of $1,619,000 over the comparable period in 2014. Total interest income increased $1,447,000 and total interest expense decreased $172,000.

The increase in total interest income was due to a $68.5 million increase in average total earning assets and secondarily due to a 28 basis point (a basis point equals 0.01%) increase in the average rate earned on earning assets. The increase in average total earning assets was due to a $51.4 million increase in average loans and to a $12.6 increase in average total investment securities. The increase in average loans was partially due to the acquisition of BNB and partially due to organic loan growth.

The decrease in total interest expense was due to a 10 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities and to a $5.4 million decrease in average long-term debt and to a $10.4 million decrease in average IRA and time certificates. Average interest-bearing deposits increased despite the decrease in IRA and time certificates due to increases in the average balances of savings, NOW, and money fund deposits. Average long-term debt decreased due to the payment in full during January 2015 of a $5.0 million advance from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 vs. 2014

The following table presents, for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, average balances for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the income or expense related to each item, and the resulting average yields earned or rates paid.

Net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis for the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $20,627,000, an increase of $2,587,000 over the comparable period in 2014. Total interest income increased $2,262,000 and total interest expense decreased $325,000.

The increase in total interest income was due to a $63.2 million increase in average total earning assets and to a 19 basis point increase in the average rate earned on earning assets. The increase in average total earning assets was due to a $51.9 million increase in average loans and to a $11.0 million increase in average total investment securities. The increase in average loans was partially due to the acquisition of BNB and partially due to organic loan growth.

The decrease in total interest expense was due to a 10 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities and to a $5.3 million decrease in average long-term debt and to a $9.4 million decrease in average IRA and time certificates. Average interest-bearing deposits increased despite the decrease in IRA and time certificates due to increases in the average balances of savings, NOW, and money fund deposits. Average long-term debt decreased due to the payment in full during January 2015 of a $5.0 million advance from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati.

Provision and Allowance For Loan Losses

The total provision for loan losses is determined based upon management's evaluation as to the amount needed to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level considered appropriate in relation to the risk of losses inherent in the portfolio. In addition to historic charge-off percentages, factors taken into consideration to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses include the nature, volume, and consistency of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, a review of specific problem loans, and current economic conditions that may affect borrowers' ability to pay. Net charge-offs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $636,000 and $988,000, respectively, as compared to $232,000 and $531,000 for the same periods in 2014. The provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $677,000 and $746,000, respectively, as compared to $255,000 and $336,000 for the same periods in 2014. Net charge-offs and the provision for loan losses had elevated balances during the second quarter 2015 due to the sale of impaired loans during that quarter.

Non-Interest Income

Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 vs. 2014

Total non-interest income for the second quarter 2015 was $530,000 greater than for the second quarter 2014 primarily due to a $124,000 increase in trust income, a $221,000 increase in net gains from sales of securities, and a $166,000 increase in gains from sales of loans. The increase in trust income reflects growth in the fair value of assets managed. The increase in net gains from sales of securities reflects an increase in the volume of securities sold and the increase in gains from sales of loans primarily reflects gains recognized on some of the impaired loans sold during the quarter.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 vs. 2014

Total non-interest income for the first half of 2015 was $759,000 greater than for the first half of 2014 primarily due to a $269,000 increase in trust income, a $336,000 increase in net gains from sales of securities, and a $186,000 increase in gains from sales of loans for substantially the same reasons mentioned above.

Non-Interest Expense

Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 vs. 2014

Non-interest expense for the second quarter 2015 was $826,000 greater than for the second quarter 2014 primarily due to a $425,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits and a $452,000 increase in merger-related expenses. Salaries and employee benefits increased primarily due to salary and wage increases, employees retained from the BNB and Eaton National acquisitions, an increase in the number of employees outside of the acquisitions, and to increased retirement plan expenses. Merger-related expenses increased due to the acquisition of BNB during the second quarter 2015, while no institutions were acquired during the second quarter 2014.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 vs. 2014

Non-interest expense for the first half of 2015 was $197,000 less than for the first half of 2014 primarily due to a $770,000 decrease in merger-related expenses, a $124,000 decrease in expenses related to other real estate owned ("OREO") (included in other non-interest expense), and smaller decreases in other accounts. Costs related to the acquisition of BNB were less than costs associated with the acquisition of Eaton National in January 2014. OREO expenses decreased because LCNB held fewer properties during the 2015 period. These decreases were largely offset by a $797,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits for substantially the same reasons mentioned above.

Income Taxes

LCNB's effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 27.7% and 23.4%, respectively. The difference between the statutory rate of 34.0% and the effective tax rate is primarily due to tax-exempt interest income from municipal securities and tax-exempt earnings from bank owned life insurance.

Financial Condition

The carrying values of loans, securities available-for-sale, premises and equipment, and deposits were greatly influenced by the merger with BNB. See Note 2 - Acquisition to the Financial Statements for a description of the merger and a summary of the fair values of BNB's assets and liabilities added to LCNB's consolidated balance sheet.

Net loans at June 30, 2015 were $56.0 million greater than at December 31, 2014 partially due to the acquisition of BNB, which increased LCNB's loan balance by $34.7 million, and partially due to organic growth in the portfolio.

Available-for-sale investment securities at June 30, 2015 were $62.5 million greater than at December 31, 2014. Included in the increase were $58.2 in investment securities obtained through the acquisition of BNB. During 2015, LCNB purchased $70.9 million in new securities. The purchases were largely offset by sales, maturities, and calls of investment securities.

Goodwill at June 30, 2015 was $2.5 greater than at December 31, 2014 due to goodwill recorded on the BNB acquisition.

Total deposits at June 30, 2015 was $137.8 million greater than at December 31, 2014. Included in this increase were $99.1 million in new deposits obtained through the BNB acquisition and a $43.7 million increase in public fund deposits by local government entities. Public fund deposits can be relatively volatile due to seasonal tax collections and the financial needs of the local entities.

LCNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

Shareholders' equity at June 30, 2015 was $12.0 million greater than at December 31, 2014. LCNB issued 560,132 shares of common stock during the second quarter 2015 as partial payment for BNB shares of stock, resulting in a $9.1 million increase in the common shares account.

Regulatory Capital

The Bank and LCNB are required by regulators to meet certain minimum levels of capital adequacy. These are expressed in the form of certain ratios. Capital is separated into Tier 1 capital (essentially shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangibles) and Tier 2 capital (essentially the allowance for loan losses limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets). Common Equity Tier 1 Capital is the sum of common stock, related surplus, and retained earnings net of treasury stock, accumulated other comprehensive income, and other adjustments. These three ratios, which are based on the degree of credit risk in LCNB's assets, provide for weighting assets based on assigned risk factors and include off-balance sheet items such as loan commitments and standby letters of credit. The leverage ratio supplements the risk-based capital guidelines.

For various regulatory purposes, financial institutions are classified into categories based upon capital adequacy.



	Minimum Requirement		To Be Considered Well-Capitalized
Ratio of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets	4.5	%	6.5	%
Ratio of Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets	6.0	%	8.0	%
Ratio of Total Capital (Tier 1 Capital plus Tier 2 Capital) to risk-weighted assets	8.0	%	10.0	%
Leverage Ratio (Tier 1 Capital to adjusted quarterly average total assets)	4.0	%	5.0	%

A new rule requiring a Capital Conservation Buffer will begin phase-in on January 1, 2016. Under the fully-implemented rule, a financial institution will need to maintain a Capital Conservation Buffer composed of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital of at least 2.5% above its minimum risk-weighted capital requirements to avoid limitations on its ability to make capital distributions, including dividend payments to shareholders and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. A financial institution with a buffer below 2.5% will be subject to increasingly stringent limitations on capital distributions as the buffer approaches zero.

As of the most recent notification from their regulators, the Bank and LCNB were categorized as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since the last notification that would change the Bank's or LCNB's category.

A summary of the regulatory capital and capital ratios of LCNB follows (dollars in thousands):



	June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
Regulatory Capital:
Shareholders' equity	$	137,698		125,695
Goodwill and other intangibles	(32,301		)	(31,886	)
Accumulated other comprehensive income	(475		)	(785	)
Tier 1 risk-based capital	104,922			93,024

Liquidity

LCNB depends on dividends from the Bank for the majority of its liquid assets, including the cash needed to pay dividends to its shareholders. National banking law limits the amount of dividends the Bank may pay to the sum of retained net income for the current year plus retained net income for the previous two years. Prior approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Bank's primary regulator, is necessary for the Bank to pay dividends in excess of this amount. In addition, dividend payments may not reduce capital levels below minimum regulatory guidelines. Management believes the Bank will be able to pay anticipated dividends to LCNB Corp. without needing to request approval. The Bank is not aware of any reasons why it would not receive such approval.

Liquidity is the ability to have funds available at all times to meet the commitments of LCNB. Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily marketable or pledgeable or which will mature in the near future. Liquid assets include cash and cash equivalents and securities available for sale. At June 30, 2015, LCNB's liquid assets amounted to $375.8 million or 30.1% of total assets. This compares to liquid assets totaling $301.2 million or 27.2% of total assets at December 31, 2014.

Liquidity is also provided by access to core funding sources, primarily core depositors in LCNB's market area. Approximately 82.0% of total deposits at June 30, 2015 were "core" deposits, compared to 84.3% of deposits at December 31, 2014. Core deposits, for this purpose, are defined as total deposits less public funds and certificates of deposit greater than $100,000. The percentage of core deposits to total deposits decreased because of the growth in public fund deposits discussed above in relation to total growth in deposits.

Secondary sources of liquidity include LCNB's ability to sell loan participations, borrow funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank, purchase federal funds, issue repurchase agreements, or use a line of credit established with another bank.

Management closely monitors the level of liquid assets available to meet ongoing funding needs. It is management's intent to maintain adequate liquidity so that sufficient funds are readily available at a reasonable cost. LCNB experienced no liquidity or operational problems as a result of the current liquidity levels.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

Market risk for LCNB is primarily interest rate risk. LCNB attempts to mitigate this risk through asset/liability management strategies designed to decrease the vulnerability of its earnings to material and prolonged changes in interest rates. LCNB does not use derivatives such as interest rate swaps, caps, or floors to hedge this risk. LCNB has not entered into any market risk instruments for trading purposes.

The Bank's Asset and Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") primarily uses a combination of Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis ("IRSA") and Economic Value of Equity ("EVE") analysis for measuring and managing interest rate risk. IRSA is used to estimate the effect on net interest income ("NII") during a one-year period of instantaneous and sustained movements in interest rates, also called interest rate shocks, of 100, 200, and 300 basis points. Management considers the results of any significant downward scenarios to not be meaningful in the current interest rate environment. The base projection uses a current interest rate scenario. As shown below, the June 30, 2015 IRSA indicates that an increase in interest rates will have a positive effect on net interest income ("NII"). The changes in NII for all rate assumptions are within LCNB's acceptable ranges.



Rate Shock Scenario in Basis Points	Amount		$ Change in NII	% Change in NII
	(Dollars in thousands)
Up 300	$	42,139	3,358	8.66	%
Up 200	41,004		2,223	5.73	%
Up 100	39,880		1,099	2.83	%
Base	38,781		—	—	%

IRSA shows the effect on NII during a one-year period only. A more long-range model is the EVE analysis, which shows the estimated present value of future cash inflows from interest-earning assets less the present value of future cash outflows for interest-bearing liabilities for the same rate shocks. As shown below, the June 30, 2015 EVE analysis indicates that an increase in interest rates will have a negative effect on the EVE. The changes in EVE for all rate assumptions are within LCNB's acceptable ranges.



Rate Shock Scenario in Basis Points	Amount		$ Change in EVE		% Change in EVE
	(Dollars in thousands)
Up 300	$	133,408	(3,252	)	(2.38	)%
Up 200	133,895		(2,765	)	(2.02	)%
Up 100	134,335		(2,325	)	(1.70	)%
Base	136,660		—		—	%

The IRSA and EVE simulations discussed above are not projections of future income or equity and should not be relied on as being indicative of future operating results. Assumptions used, including the nature and timing of interest rate levels, yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, and reinvestment or replacement of asset and liability cash flows, are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the models cannot precisely measure future net interest income or equity. Furthermore, the models do not reflect actions that borrowers, depositors, and management may take in response to changing economic conditions and interest rate levels.
