Note 4:     Allowance for Loan Losses, Nonperforming Assets and Impaired Loans

 

The allowance for loan losses methodology incorporates individual evaluation of impaired loans and collective evaluation of groups of non-impaired loans. The Company performs ongoing analysis of the loan portfolio to determine credit quality and to identify impaired loans. Credit quality is rated based on the loan’s payment history, the borrower’s current financial situation and value of the underlying collateral.

Impaired loans are those loans that have been modified in a troubled debt restructure (“TDR” or “restructure”) and larger, non-homogeneous loans that are in nonaccrual or exhibit payment history or financial status that indicate the probability that collection will not occur according to the loan’s terms. Generally, impaired loans are given risk ratings that indicate higher risk, such as “classified” or “other assets especially mentioned.” Impaired loans are individually evaluated to determine appropriate reserves and are measured at the lower of the invested amount or the fair market value. Impaired loans with an impairment loss are designated nonaccrual. Please refer to Note 2 of the Company’s 2012 Form 10-K/A, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information on evaluation of impaired loans and associated specific reserves, and policies regarding nonaccruals, past due status and charge-offs.

Troubled debt restructurings impact the estimation of the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses. If the restructuring included forgiveness of a portion of principal or accrued interest, the charge-off is included in the historical charge-off rates applied to the collective evaluation methodology. Further, restructured loans are individually evaluated for impairment, with amounts below fair value accrued in the allowance for loan losses. TDRs that experience a payment default are examined to determine whether the default indicates collateral dependency or cash flows below those that were included in the fair value measurement. TDRs, as well as all impaired loans, that are determined to be collateral dependent or for which decreased cash flows indicate a decline in fair value are charged down to fair value.

The Company evaluated characteristics in the loan portfolio and determined major segments and smaller classes within each segment. These characteristics include collateral type, repayment sources, and (if applicable) the borrower’s business model. The methodology for calculating reserves for collectively-evaluated loans is applied at the class level.

 

Portfolio Segments and Classes

 

Beginning January 1, 2013, the Company segregated certain loans that were included within the classes of the Residential Real Estate segment, including Equity lines, Residential closed-end first liens and Residential closed-end junior liens. The newly-segregated loans are secured by residential real estate collateral that is owned by investors and for which the primary repayment source is rental income. The new class in the Residential Real Estate segment allows the Company to address credit risks characteristic of investor-owned residential real estate. Segregating the investor-owned residential real estate did not have a significant impact on the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. Consistent with accounting guidance, prior periods have not been restated and are shown as originally published using the segments and classes in effect for the period.

Historical Loss Rates

The Company’s allowance methodology for collectively-evaluated loans applies historical loss rates by class to current class balances as part of the process of determining required reserves. Class loss rates are calculated as the net charge-offs for the class as a percentage of average class balance. The annualized current-year loss rate is averaged with that of prior periods to obtain the historical loss rate. Prior to the first quarter of 2013, one historical loss rate for each class was calculated and applied to current class balance to obtain the allocation for historical loss rates.

Beginning with the first quarter of 2013, two loss rates for each class are calculated: total net charge-offs for the class as a percentage of average class loan balance (“class loss rate”), and total net charge-offs for the class as a percentage of average classified loans in the class (“classified loss rate”). Classified loans are those with risk ratings of “substandard” or higher. Net charge-offs in both calculations include charge-offs and recoveries of classified and non-classified loans as well as those associated with impaired loans. Class historical loss rates are applied to non-classified loan balances at the reporting date, and classified historical loss rates are applied to classified balances at the reporting date.

The revised calculation and application of historical loss rates impacted the calculation of reserves for collectively-evaluated loans. Under the former methodology, the class historical loss rates were applied to all collectively-evaluated loans and would have resulted in a total allocation of $2,695. Under the revised methodology, class historical loss rates are applied to only non-classified loans, resulting in an allocation of $2,687. In addition, the classified historical loss rate resulted in an allocation of $838, for a total allocation based on historical loss rates of $3,525. Consistent with accounting guidance, prior periods have not been restated and are shown as originally published using the methodology in effect for the period.

 

Risk Factors

In addition to historical loss rates, risk factors pertinent to each class are analyzed to estimate reserves for collectively-evaluated loans. Factors include changes in national and local economic and business conditions, the nature and volume of classes within the portfolio, loan quality and loan officers’ experience. Prior to the first quarter of 2013, management also reviewed the Company’s lending policies and loan review system to determine whether changes had occurred during the quarter that affected credit risk. Until the first quarter of 2013, no changes were found to affect credit risk and no additional allocations were applied. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company incorporated to the allowance methodology a factor for changes in the Company’s lending policies and a factor for changes in the quality of the Company’s loan review, and set standard allocations for associated risk. The addition of the factors formalized and standardized a practice already in place and did not have a significant impact on the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.

The analysis of certain factors results in standard allocations to all segments and classes. These factors include loan officers’ average years of experience, the risk from changes in lending policies, and the risk from changes in loan review. Factors analyzed for each class, with resultant allocations based upon the level of risk assessed for each class, include levels of past due loans, nonaccrual loans, current class balance as a percentage of total loans, and the percentage of high risk loans within the class. Additionally, factors specific to each segment are analyzed and result in allocations to the segment.

Real estate construction loans are subject to general risks from changing commercial building and housing market trends and economic conditions that may impact demand for completed properties and the costs of completion. These risks are measured by market-area unemployment rates, bankruptcy rates, housing and commercial building market trends, and interest rates.

The credit quality of consumer real estate is subject to risks associated with the borrower’s repayment ability and collateral value, measured generally by analyzing local unemployment and bankruptcy trends, local housing market trends, and interest rates.

 

 
12

 

 

The commercial real estate segment includes loans secured by multifamily residential real estate, commercial real estate occupied by the owner/borrower, and commercial real estate leased to non-owners. Loans in the commercial real estate segment are impacted by economic risks from changing commercial real estate markets, rental markets for multi-family housing and commercial buildings, business bankruptcy rates, local unemployment and interest rate trends that would impact the businesses housed by the commercial real estate.

Commercial non real estate loans are secured by collateral other than real estate, or are unsecured. Credit risk for commercial non real estate loans is subject to economic conditions, generally monitored by local business bankruptcy trends, and interest rates. Public sector and IDA loans are extended to municipalities and related entities. Credit risk is based upon the entity’s ability to repay and interest rate trends.

Consumer non real estate includes credit cards, automobile and other consumer loans. Credit cards and certain other consumer loans are unsecured, while collateral is obtained for automobile loans and other consumer loans. Credit risk stems primarily from the borrower’s ability to repay, measured by average unemployment, average personal bankruptcy rates and interest rates.

Factor allocations applied to each class are increased for loans rated special mention and increased to a greater extent for loans rated classified. The Company allocates additional reserves for “high risk” loans, determined to be junior lien mortgages, high loan-to-value loans and interest-only loans.

The Company reviews nonaccrual loans on an individual loan basis to determine whether future payments are reasonably assured. To satisfy this criteria, the Company’s evaluation must determine that the underlying cause of the original delinquency or weakness that indicated nonaccrual status has been resolved, such as receipt of new guarantees, increased cash flows that cover the debt service or other resolution. Nonaccrual loans that demonstrate reasonable assurance of future payments and that have made at least six consecutive payments in accordance with repayment terms and timeframes may be returned to accrual status.

A restructured loan for which impairment measurement does not indicate a loss and that maintains current status for at least six months may be returned to accrual status.

The estimate of credit risk for non-impaired loans is obtained by applying allocations for internal and external factors. The allocations are increased for loans that exhibit greater credit quality risk.

Credit quality indicators, which the Company terms risk grades, are assigned through the Company’s credit review function for larger loans and selective review of loans that fall below credit review thresholds. Loans that do not indicate heightened risk are graded as “pass.” Loans that appear to have elevated credit risk because of frequent or persistent past due status, which is less than 75 days, or that show weakness in the borrower’s financial condition are risk graded “special mention.” Loans with frequent or persistent delinquency exceeding 75 days or that have a higher level of weakness in the borrower’s financial condition are graded “classified.” Classified loans have regulatory risk ratings of “substandard” and “doubtful.” Allocations are increased by 50% and by 100% for loans with grades of “special mention” and “classified,” respectively.

Determination of risk grades was completed for the portfolio as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 and December 31, 2012.

Sales, Purchases and Reclassification of Loans

The Company finances mortgages under “best efforts” contracts with mortgage purchasers. The mortgages are designated as held for sale upon initiation. There have been no major reclassifications from portfolio loans to held for sale. Occasionally, the Company purchases or sells participations in loans. All participation loans purchased met the Company’s normal underwriting standards at the time the participation was entered. Participation loans are included in the appropriate portfolio balances to which the allowance methodology is applied.

The modifications that resulted in troubled debt restructurings between January 1, 2013 and June 30, 2013 provided payment relief to the borrowers without forgiveness of principal or accrued interest. The date of conversion from interest-only to amortizing payments for one commercial real estate loan was extended beyond the date specified by the contract, resulting in designation as a troubled debt restructuring. During the second quarter of 2013, the loan was converted to amortizing payments and moved from Real Estate Construction to Commercial Real Estate. The other commercial real estate loan was modified to extend the term, lower the interest rate and provide debt consolidation to allow the borrower increased debt service ability. The modifications of the consumer real estate loans capitalized accrued interest and reduced interest rates. The term for one consumer real estate loan was shortened, resulting in a higher payment, while the term for the other consumer real estate loan was lengthened, resulting in a lower payment.

The troubled debt restructurings for the three months ended June 30, 2012 included partial charge offs of $109 for two consumer real estate loans that had received modifications in previous quarters; providing payment relief for one commercial real estate loan and one commercial non real estate loan, primarily by extending maturity dates or changing amortization structures without reducing interest rates or amounts owed; and adding a co-borrower to one consumer real estate loan. Loans restructured during the first quarter of 2012 were modified to provide payment relief without reducing interest rates or amounts owed. Restructured loans are designated impaired and measured for impairment. Collateral dependent restructured loans are measured using the fair value of collateral. Non-collateral dependent restructured loans are measured using the present value of cash flows. The impairment measurement resulted in specific allocations of $197 for loans modified during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $244 for loans modified during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The following tables present restructured loans that defaulted during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, and that were modified within 12 months prior to default. The Company defines default as one or more payments that occur more than 90 days past the due date, or charge-offs after the date of restructuring.

Restructured loans are individually evaluated for impairment. The fair value measurements for all of the restructured loans presented above were based on the fair value of collateral and as such, were not significantly affected by the payment default. All but one of the restructured loans above are in nonaccrual status. One of the commercial real estate loans that defaulted in the first quarter of 2013 was placed into other real estate owned during the first quarter of 2013.

The Company had 177 securities with a fair value of $228,658 which were temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013.  The total unrealized loss on these securities was $20,036. Of the temporarily impaired total, two securities with a fair value of $482 and an unrealized loss of $135 have been in a continuous loss position for twelve months or more. The Company has determined that these securities are temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013 for the reasons set out below.

U.S. Government agencies. The unrealized losses in this category of investments were caused by interest rate and market fluctuations. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the cost basis of each investment. The Company is monitoring bond market trends and developing strategies to address unrealized losses. At this time the unrealized losses are not considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

States and political subdivisions. This category’s unrealized losses are primarily the result of interest rate and market fluctuations. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the cost basis of each investment. Because the Company does not intend to sell any of the investments and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell any of the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

Corporate. The Company’s unrealized losses in corporate debt securities are related to interest rate and market fluctuations. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the cost basis of each investment. Because the Company does not intend to sell any of the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

Other securities. The Company holds an investment in an LLC and a small amount of community bank stock. The value of these investments has been negatively affected by market conditions. Because the Company does not intend to sell these investments before recovery of amortized cost basis, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

As a member of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta, NBB is required to maintain certain minimum investments in the common stock of those entities. Required levels of investment are based upon NBB’s capital and a percentage of qualifying assets. In addition, NBB is eligible to borrow from the FHLB with borrowings collateralized by qualifying assets, primarily residential mortgage loans and NBB’s capital stock investment in the FHLB. Redemption of FHLB stock is subject to certain limitations and conditions. At its discretion, the FHLB may declare dividends on the stock. Management reviews for impairment based upon the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis of the FHLB stock, and at June 30, 2013, management did not consider there to be any impairment.

Management regularly monitors the credit quality of the investment portfolio. Changes in ratings are noted and follow-up research on the issuer is undertaken when warranted. Management intends to carefully follow any changes in bond quality.

 

Note 6: Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This ASU requires entities to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the balance sheet and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.” The amendments in this ASU apply to all entities that have indefinite-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, reported in their financial statements. The amendments in this ASU provide an entity with the option to make a qualitative assessment about the likelihood that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired to determine whether it should perform a quantitative impairment test. The amendments also enhance the consistency of impairment testing guidance among long-lived asset categories by permitting an entity to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to calculate the asset’s fair value when testing an indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” The amendments in this ASU clarify the scope for derivatives accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to netting arrangements. An entity is required to apply the amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The amendments in this ASU require an entity to present (either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes) the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. In addition, the amendments require a cross-reference to other disclosures currently required for other reclassification items to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period. Companies should apply these amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The Company has included the required disclosures from ASU 2013-02 in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 8: Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company records fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and determines fair value disclosures utilizing a definition of fair value of assets and liabilities that states that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Additional considerations come into play in determining the fair value of assets in markets that are not active.

The Company uses a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on these two types of inputs are as follows:

 

Level 1 – 

 

Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 

Level 2 –

 

Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.

 

Level 3 – 

 

Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

Securities Available for Sale

 

Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2). The carrying value of restricted Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value based upon the redemption provisions of each entity and is therefore excluded from the following table.

 

The following table presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

 

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.

 

Loans Held for Sale

 

Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value. These loans currently consist of one-to-four family residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, the Company records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. No nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded on loans held for sale at June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012. Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded within income from mortgage banking on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Impaired Loans

 

Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all the contractual interest and principal payments as scheduled in the loan agreement. Troubled debt restructurings are impaired loans. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans may be based on either the observable market price of the loan, the present value of the expected cash flows or the fair value of the collateral. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction, if an appraisal of the real estate property is over 12 months old or if the real estate market is considered by management to be experiencing volatility, then the fair value is considered Level 3. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal using observable market data, if the collateral is deemed significant. If the collateral is not deemed significant, the value of business equipment is based on the net book value on the borrower’s financial statements. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on the borrower’s financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Estimated losses on impaired loans allocated to the allowance for loan losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s impaired loans that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at June 30, 2013 and at December 31, 2012.

Other Real Estate Owned

 

Other real estate owned are real estate assets acquired in full or partial satisfaction of a loan. At acquisition, other real estate owned assets are measured at fair value. If the assets are marketed for sale by an outside party, the acquisition-date fair value is discounted by selling costs; if the assets are marketed for sale by the Company, no reduction to fair value for selling costs is made. Subsequent to acquisition, the assets are measured at the lower of initial measurement or current fair value, discounted for selling costs as appropriate.

The fair value of an other real estate owned asset is determined by an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). If the appraisal is discounted either for age or because management considers the real estate market to be experiencing volatility, then the fair value is considered Level 3. Discounts for selling costs also result in measurement based on Level 3 inputs. Fair value adjustments are measured on a nonrecurring basis and are recorded in the period incurred as valuation allowances to other real estate owned, and expensed through noninterest expense.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments.

 

Cash and Due from Banks and Interest-Bearing Deposits

 

The carrying amounts approximate fair value. 

 

 
33

 

  

Securities

 

The fair value of securities, excluding restricted stock, is determined by quoted market prices or dealer quotes. The fair value of certain state and municipal securities is not readily available through market sources other than dealer quotations, so fair value estimates are based on quoted market prices of similar instruments adjusted for differences between the quoted instruments and the instruments being valued. The carrying value of restricted securities approximates fair value based upon the redemption provisions of the applicable entities.

 

Loans Held for Sale

 

The fair value of loans held for sale is based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market prices.

 

Loans

 

Fair value for the loan portfolio is estimated on an account-level basis by discounting scheduled cash flows through the projected maturity for each loan. The calculation applies estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. The estimate of maturity is based on the Company’s historical experience with repayments for loan classification, modified by an estimate of the effect of economic conditions on lending.

Impaired loans are individually evaluated for fair value. Fair value for the Company’s impaired loans is estimated by using either discounted cash flows or the appraised value of collateral. Any amount of principal balance that exceeds fair value is accrued in the allowance for loan losses. Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows and discount rates are determined within management’s judgment, using available market information and specific borrower information. Discount rates for cash flow analysis are based on the loan’s interest rate, and cash flows are estimated based upon the loan’s historical payment performance and the borrower’s current financial condition. Appraisals may be discounted for age, reasonableness, and selling costs.

 

Deposits

 

The fair value of demand and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand. The fair value of fixed maturity term deposits and certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities.

 

Accrued Interest

 

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

 

Bank-Owned Life Insurance

 

Bank owned life insurance represents insurance policies on officers of the Company and certain officers who are no longer employed by the Company.  The cash values of the policies are estimates using information provided by insurance carriers.  These policies are carried at their cash surrender value, which approximates the fair value.

 

Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit

 

The only amounts recorded for commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are the deferred fees arising from these unrecognized financial instruments. These deferred fees are not deemed significant at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and, as such, the related fair values have not been estimated.

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

$ in thousands, except per share data

 

The purpose of this discussion and analysis is to provide information about the financial condition and results of operations of National Bankshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”), which are not otherwise apparent from the consolidated financial statements and other information included in this report.  Please refer to the financial statements and other information included in this report as well as the 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

We make forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties.  These forward-looking statements include statements regarding our profitability, liquidity, allowance for loan losses, interest rate sensitivity, market risk, growth strategy, and financial and other goals, and are based upon our management’s views and assumptions as of the date of this report.  The words “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “anticipates,”  “forecasts,” “intends,” or other similar words or terms are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are based upon or are affected by factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from historical results or from any results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in:

●     interest rates,

●     general economic conditions,

●     the legislative/regulatory climate,

 

monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the impact of any policies or programs implemented pursuant to the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and other financial reform legislation,

●     unanticipated increases in the level of unemployment in the Company’s trade area,

●     the quality or composition of the loan and/or investment portfolios,

●     demand for loan products,

●     deposit flows,

●     competition,

●     demand for financial services in the Company’s trade area,

●     the real estate market in the Company’s trade area,

●     the Company’s technology initiatives,

●     threats from technology based frauds and scams,

●     loss or retirement of key executives,

●     adverse changes in the securities market, and

●     applicable accounting principles, policies and guidelines.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this report. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on those statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the description of our “Risk Factors” in Item 1A. of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

The recession continues to impact the national economy as well as the Company’s market. Signs of economic recovery are mixed with continued high unemployment and diminished real estate values. The Company’s trade area contains a diverse economy that includes large public colleges and universities, which somewhat insulated the Company’s market from the dramatic declines in real estate values seen in some other areas of the country. Real estate values in the Company’s market area saw moderate declines in 2009 and 2010 that appeared to stabilize in 2011, 2012 and in the first half of 2013. If the economic recovery wavers or reverses, it is likely that unemployment will continue at higher-than-normal levels or rise in the Company’s trade area. Because of the importance to the Company’s markets of state-funded universities, cutbacks in the funding provided by the State as a result of the recession could also negatively impact employment. This could lead to an even higher rate of delinquent loans and a greater number of real estate foreclosures. Higher unemployment and the fear of layoffs causes reduced consumer demand for goods and services, which negatively impacts the Company’s business and professional customers. A slow economic recovery could have an adverse effect on all financial institutions, including the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

General

 

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. The Company uses historical loss rates as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in the loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of the Company’s transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact the transactions could change.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The allowance for loan losses is an accrual of estimated losses that have been sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is reduced by charge-offs of loans and increased by the provision for loan losses and recoveries of previously charged-off loans. The determination of the allowance is based on two accounting principles, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 450-20 (Contingencies) which requires that losses be accrued when occurrence is probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable, and ASC Topic 310-10 (Receivables) which requires accrual of losses on impaired loans if the recorded investment exceeds fair value.

Probable losses are accrued through two calculations, individual evaluation of impaired loans and collective evaluation of the remainder of the portfolio. Impaired loans are larger non-homogeneous loans for which there is a probability that collection will not occur according to the loan terms, as well as loans whose terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Impaired loans with an estimated impairment loss are placed on nonaccrual status.

 

Impaired loans

Impaired loans are identified through the Company’s credit risk rating process. Estimated loss for an impaired loan is the amount of recorded investment that exceeds the loan’s fair value. Fair value of an impaired loan is measured by one of three methods: the fair value of collateral (“collateral method”), the present value of future cash flows (“cash flow method”), or observable market price. The Company applies the collateral method to collateral-dependent loans, loans for which foreclosure is eminent and to loans for which the fair value of collateral is a more reliable estimate of fair value. The cash flow method is applied to loans that are not collateral dependent and for which cash flows may be estimated.

The Company bases collateral method fair valuation upon the “as-is” value of independent appraisals or evaluations. Valuations for impaired loans with outstanding principal balances of $250 or more are based on a current appraisal. Appraisals are also used to value impaired loans with principal balances of $100 or greater and secured by one piece of collateral. Collateral-method impaired loans with principal balances below $100, or if secured by multiple pieces of collateral, below $250, are valued using an internal evaluation.

Appraisals and internal valuations provide an estimate of market value. Appraisals must conform to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (“USPAP”) and are prepared by an independent third-party appraiser who is certified and licensed and who is approved by the Company. Appraisals incorporate market analysis, comparable sales analysis, cash flow analysis and market data pertinent to the property to determine market value. Internal evaluations are prepared and reviewed by employees of the Company who are independent of the loan origination, operation, management and collection functions. Evaluations provide a property’s market value based on the property’s current physical condition and characteristics and the economic market conditions that affect the collateral’s market value. Evaluations incorporate multiple sources of data to arrive at a property’s market value, including physical inspection, tax values, independent third-party automated tools, comparable sales analysis and local market information.

Updated appraisals or evaluations are ordered when the loan becomes impaired if the appraisal or evaluation on file is more than twelve months old. Appraisals and evaluations are reviewed for propriety and reasonableness and may be discounted if the Company determines that the value exceeds reasonable levels. If an updated appraisal or evaluation has been ordered but has not been received by a reporting date, the fair value may be based on the most recent available appraisal or evaluation, discounted for age.

The appraisal or evaluation value for a collateral-dependent loan for which recovery is expected solely from the sale of collateral is reduced by estimated selling costs. Estimated losses on collateral-dependent loans, as well as any other impairment loss considered uncollectible, are charged against the allowance for loan losses. For loans that are not collateral dependent, the impairment loss is accrued in the allowance. Impaired loans with partial charge-offs are maintained as impaired until the remaining balance is satisfied. Smaller homogeneous impaired loans that are not troubled debt restructurings or part of a larger impaired relationship are collectively evaluated.

Troubled debt restructurings are impaired loans and are measured for impairment under the same valuation methods as other impaired loans. Troubled debt restructurings are maintained in nonaccrual status until the loan has demonstrated reasonable assurance of repayment with at least six months of consecutive timely payment performance, unless the impairment measurement indicates a loss. Troubled debt restructurings with impairment losses remain in nonaccrual status.

Collectively-evaluated loans

Non-impaired loans and smaller homogeneous impaired loans that are not troubled debt restructurings and not part of a larger impaired relationship are grouped by portfolio segments that are made up of smaller loan classes. Loans within a segment or class have similar risk characteristics.

Beginning January 1, 2013, the Company segregated certain loans that were included within the classes of the Residential Real Estate segment, including Equity lines, Residential closed-end first liens and Residential closed-end junior liens. The newly-segregated loans are secured by residential real estate collateral that is owned by investors and for which the primary repayment source is rental income. The new class in the Residential Real Estate segment allows the Company to address credit risks characteristic of investor-owned residential real estate. Segregating the investor-owned residential real estate did not have a significant impact on the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. Consistent with accounting guidance, prior periods have not been restated and are shown as originally published using the segments and classes in effect for the period.

Probable loss is determined by applying historical net charge-off rates as well as additional percentages for trends and current levels of quantitative and qualitative factors. Loss rates are calculated for and applied to individual classes and encompass losses for the current year and the previous year. The Company utilizes a two-year “look-back period”, by averaging loss rates from the current year and the previous year to apply to current collectively-evaluated classes. Calculations made for quarterly reporting use the annualized current-year loss rate averaged with the loss rate from the previous year. The look-back period is the same for all classes and segments, and for all periods reported.

Beginning with the first quarter of 2013, two loss rates for each class are calculated: total net charge-offs for the class as a percentage of average class loan balance (“class loss rate”), and total net charge-offs for the class as a percentage of average classified loans in the class (“classified loss rate”). Classified loans are those with risk ratings of “substandard” or higher. Net charge-offs in both calculations include charge-offs and recoveries of classified and non-classified loans as well as those associated with impaired loans. Class historical loss rates are applied to non-classified loan balances at the reporting date, and classified historical loss rates are applied to classified balances at the reporting date.

Trends and current levels of qualitative factors are evaluated and allocations are applied to each class. Delinquency rates, loan quality and concentrations are evaluated for individual classes, while factors for loan officers’ experience, changes in lending policies and changes in the loan review process are evaluated on a general level. Economic factors such as unemployment rates, bankruptcy rates and others are also evaluated, with standard allocations applied consistently to relevant classes.

The Company accrues additional estimated loss for criticized loans within each class and for loans designated high risk. High risk loans are defined as junior lien mortgages, loans with high loan-to-value ratios and loans with terms that require only interest payments. Both criticized loans and high risk loans are included in the base risk analysis for each class and are allocated additional reserves.

 

Estimation of the allowance for loan losses

The estimation of the allowance involves analysis of internal and external variables, methodologies, assumptions and our judgment and experience. Key judgments used in determining the allowance for loan losses include internal risk rating determinations, market and collateral values, discount rates, loss rates, and our view of current economic conditions. These judgments are inherently subjective and our actual losses could be greater or less than the estimate. Future estimates of the allowance could increase or decrease based on changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers, concentrations of various types of loans, economic conditions or the markets in which collateral may be sold. The estimate of the allowance accrual determines the amount of provision expense and directly affects our financial results.

The estimate of the allowance for June 30, 2013 considered market and portfolio conditions during the first six months of 2013 as well as the elevated levels of delinquencies and net charge-offs in 2012. Given the continued economic difficulties, the ultimate amount of loss could vary from that estimate. For additional discussion of the allowance, see Note 4 to the financial statements and “Asset Quality,” and “Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses.”

 

Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangibles

 

Goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test. The Company performs impairment testing in the fourth quarter of each year. The Company’s most recent impairment test was performed in the fourth quarter of 2012. Accounting guidance provides the option of performing preliminary assessment of qualitative factors before performing more substantial testing for impairment. The Company opted not to perform the preliminary assessment. The Company’s goodwill impairment analysis considered three valuation techniques appropriate to the measurement. The first technique uses the Company’s market capitalization as an estimate of fair value; the second technique estimates fair value using current market pricing multiples for companies comparable to the Company; while the third technique uses current market pricing multiples for change-of-control transactions involving companies comparable to the Company. Each measure indicated that the Company’s fair value exceeded its book value, validating that goodwill is not impaired.

 

 

 
39

 

 

Certain key judgments were used in the valuation measurement. Goodwill is held by the Company’s bank subsidiary. The bank subsidiary is 100% owned by the Company, and no market capitalization is available. Because most of the Company’s assets are comprised of the subsidiary bank’s equity, the Company’s market capitalization was used to estimate the Bank’s market capitalization. Other judgments include the assumption that the companies and transactions used as comparables for the second and third technique were appropriate to the estimate of the Company’s fair value, and that the comparable multiples are appropriate indicators of fair value, and compliant with accounting guidance.

Acquired intangible assets (such as core deposit intangibles) are recognized separately from goodwill if the benefit of the asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, and amortized over its useful life. The Company amortizes intangible assets arising from branch transactions over their useful life. Core deposit intangibles are subject to a recoverability test based on undiscounted cash flows, and to the impairment recognition and measurement provisions required for other long-lived assets held and used. The impairment testing showed that the expected cash flows of the intangible assets exceeded the carrying value.

 

Overview

 

National Bankshares, Inc. (“NBI”) is a financial holding company incorporated under the laws of Virginia. Located in southwest Virginia, NBI has two wholly-owned subsidiaries, the National Bank of Blacksburg (“NBB” or “the Bank”) and National Bankshares Financial Services, Inc. (“NBFS”). NBB, which does business as National Bank from twenty-five office locations, is a community bank. NBB is the source of nearly all of the Company’s revenue. NBFS does business as National Bankshares Investment Services and National Bankshares Insurance Services. Income from NBFS is not significant at this time, nor is it expected to be so in the near future.

NBI common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market and is traded under the symbol “NKSH.” National Bankshares, Inc. has been included in the Russell Investments Russell 3000 and Russell 2000 Indexes since June 29, 2009.

 

Lending

 

NBB is community-oriented and offers a full range of retail and commercial banking services to individuals, small and mid-sized businesses, non-profits and local governments. Loan types include commercial and agricultural, commercial real estate, construction for commercial and residential properties, residential real estate, home equity and various consumer loan products. Of primary consideration in the Bank’s decision to extend credit is the repayment ability of the borrowers and (if secured) the collateral value in relation to the principal balance. Collateral value lowers risk and may be used as a secondary source of repayment. The credit decision is supported by documentation appropriate to the type of loan, including current financial information, income verification or cash flow analysis, tax returns, credit reports, collateral information, guarantor verification, title reports, appraisals (where appropriate), and other documents. A discussion of underwriting policies and procedures specific to the major loan products follows.

Commercial and agricultural loans primarily finance equipment acquisition, expansion, working capital, and other general business purposes. Because these loans have a higher degree of risk, the Bank generally obtains collateral such as inventories, accounts receivables or equipment, and personal guarantees from the borrowing entity’s principal owners. The Bank’s policy limits lending to 60% of the appraised value for inventory and equipment and up to 70% for accounts receivables less than 90 days old. Credit decisions are based upon an assessment of the financial capacity of the applicant, including the primary borrower’s ability to repay within proposed terms, a risk assessment, financial strength of guarantors and adequacy of collateral. Credit agency reports of individual owners’ credit history supplement the analysis.

Commercial mortgages and construction loans are offered to investors, developers and builders, primarily within the Bank’s market area in southwest Virginia. These loans are secured by first mortgages on real estate. The loan amount is generally limited to 80% of the collateral value, and is individually determined based on the property type, quality, location and sponsorship. Commercial properties include retail centers, apartments, and industrial properties.

Underwriting decisions are based upon an analysis of the economic viability of the collateral and creditworthiness of the borrower. The Bank obtains appraisals from qualified certified independent appraisers to establish the value of collateral properties. The property’s projected net cash flows compared to the debt service requirement (the “debt service coverage ratio” or “DSC” ratio) is required to be 110% or greater, and is computed after deduction for a vacancy factor and property expenses, as appropriate. Borrower cash flow may be supplemented by a personal guarantee from the principal(s) of the borrower, and guarantees from other parties. The Bank requires title insurance, fire, and extended coverage casualty insurance, and flood insurance, if appropriate, in order to protect the security interest in the underlying property. In addition, the Bank may employ stress testing techniques on higher balance loans to determine repayment ability in a changing rate environment before granting loan approval.

Construction loans are underwritten against projected cash flows from rental income, business and/or personal income from an owner-occupant or the sale of the property to an end-user. Associated risks may be mitigated by requiring fixed-price construction contracts, performance and payment bonding, controlled disbursements, and pre-sale contracts or pre-lease agreements.

The Bank offers a variety of first mortgage and junior lien loans secured by 1-4 family residences to individuals within our markets. Credit decisions are primarily based on loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratios, debt-to-income (“DTI”) ratios, liquidity, net worth, and DSC ratios. Income and financial information is obtained from personal tax returns, personal financial statements and employment documentation. A maximum LTV ratio of 80% is generally required, although higher levels are permitted with mortgage insurance. The debt-to-income ratio is limited to 40% of gross income.

Consumer real estate mortgages may have fixed interest rates for the entire term of the loan or variable interest rates subject to change yearly after the first, third, or fifth year. Variable rates are based on the weekly average yield of United States Treasury Securities and are underwritten at fully-indexed rates. We do not offer consumer real estate interest-only loans, sub-prime loans, or any variation on sub-prime lending including hybrid loans and payment option ARMs, or any product with negative amortization. Sub-prime loans involve extending credit to borrowers who exhibit characteristics indicating a significantly higher risk of default than traditional bank lending customers. Hybrid loans are loans that start out as a fixed rate mortgage but after a set number of years automatically adjust to an adjustable rate mortgage. Payment option ARMs usually have adjustable rates, for which borrowers choose their monthly payment of either a full payment, interest only, or a minimum payment which may be lower than the payment required to reduce the balance of the loan in accordance with the originally underwritten amortization.

Home equity loans are secured primarily by second mortgages on residential property. The underwriting policy for home equity loans generally permits aggregate (the total of all liens secured by the collateral property) borrowing availability up to 80% of the appraised value of the collateral. We offer variable rate home equity loans, with variable rate loans underwritten at fully-indexed rates. Decisions are primarily based on LTV ratios, DTI ratios and liquidity. We do not offer home equity loan products with reduced documentation.

Automobile loans include loans secured by new or used automobiles. Automobile loans are originated either on a direct basis or on an indirect basis through selected dealerships. We require borrowers to maintain collision insurance on automobiles securing consumer loans. Our procedures for underwriting automobile loans include an assessment of an applicant’s overall financial capacity, including credit history and the ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although an applicant’s creditworthiness is the primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral security to the proposed loan amount.

(2) 

Noninterest margin: Noninterest expense (excluding the provision for bad debts and income taxes) less noninterest income (excluding securities gains and losses) divided by average year-to-date assets.

 

The annualized return on average assets declined 5 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, due primarily to growth in average assets. The annualized return on average equity declined 59 basis points for the same period.

The annualized net interest margin was 4.27% for the first half of 2013, down 11 basis points from the 4.38% reported for the year ended December 31, 2012. The primary factor driving the decrease in the net interest margin was the declining yield on earning assets offset by a smaller decline in the cost to fund earning assets.

The annualized noninterest margin increased 8 basis points from the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily because of a decrease in noninterest income. Please refer to the discussion under noninterest expense for further information.

The Company monitors asset quality indicators in managing credit risk and in determining the allowance and provision for loan losses. The Company’s risk analysis for collectively-evaluated loans is based on historical charge-off rates, asset quality trends represented by past due and nonaccrual ratios, diversification of loans within the portfolio, the value of underlying collateral if secured, the risk of unsecured loans, and economic trends pertinent to the Company’s loan portfolio.

The Company’s risk analysis determined an allowance for loan losses of $7,952 at June 30, 2013, a decrease from $8,349 at December 31, 2012. The provision for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,026, a decline from $1,776 for the same period in 2012. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to loans was 1.35% as of June 30, 2013, lower than 1.41% at December 31, 2012 and 1.39% at June 30, 2012.

Contributing to decreases in the level of allowance for loan losses and provision were improvements in nonperforming loans, loans past due 90 days or more, and improvements in economic indicators when compared to December 31, 2012. Nonperforming loans were $13,021 at December 31, 2012 and declined to $11,950 at June 30, 2013. The ratio of nonperforming assets to loans, net of unearned income and deferred fees, plus other real estate owned was 2.19% as of June 30, 2013, a decrease from 2.44% at December 31, 2012. At June 30, 2012, nonperforming loans were $7,390 and the ratio of nonperforming assets to loans, net of unearned income and deferred fees, plus other real estate owned was 1.41%.

Accruing loans past due 90 days or more improved from $170 at December 31, 2012 and from $242 at June 30, 2012 to $125 at June 30, 2013. The annualized net charge-off ratio for the first half of 2013 remained at 0.49%, the same level as that for the year ended December 31, 2012, but declined when compared with 0.57% for the first half of 2012.

Improvements in levels of high risk loans and economic indicators also contributed to the decline in the assessment of provision and allowance for loan losses. The percentage of high risk loans to total loans, defined by the Company to be junior lien mortgages, interest only loans and loans with high loan-to-value ratios, declined from 36.59% at June 30, 2012 and from 34.33% at December 31, 2012 to 30.93% at June 30, 2013. High risk loans are provided greater allocations than other loans within the same portfolio segment. Economic factors were analyzed to determine their impact on the credit risk of the loan portfolio. Within the Company’s market area, average unemployment, bankruptcy rates, and commercial and residential vacancy rates improved from June 30, 2012, though increased slightly from December 31, 2012.

The recent economic recession and slow recovery have contributed to levels of asset quality measures that are higher than normal for the Company, however risk analyses showed signs of improvement. When June 30, 2013 is compared to December 31, 2012, charge-off trends are similar, however improvements in nonperforming loans, accruing loans past due 90 days or more and certain economic factors that affect real estate construction, consumer real estate and commercial real estate resulted in a lower allocation. The Company continues to monitor risk levels within the loan portfolio. Please refer to Note 4: Allowance for Loan Losses, Nonperforming Assets and Impaired Loans for further information on collectively-evaluated loans, individually-evaluated impaired loans and the unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses.

Other real estate owned decreased $466 from December 31, 2012 but increased $98 from June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2013, total properties approximating $647 are in various stages of foreclosure and may impact other real estate owned in future quarters. It is not possible to accurately predict the future total of other real estate owned because property sold at foreclosure may be acquired by third parties and NBB’s other real estate owned properties are regularly marketed and sold.

 

Modifications and Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”)

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company modifies loan terms on a case-by-case basis, including both consumer and commercial loans, for a variety of reasons. Modifications to consumer loans generally involve short-term deferrals to accommodate specific, temporary circumstances. The Company may grant extensions to borrowers who have demonstrated a willingness and ability to repay their loan but who are dealing with the consequences of a specific unforeseen temporary hardship.

An extension defers monthly payments and requires a balloon payment at the original contractual maturity. Where the temporary event is not expected to impact a borrower’s ability to repay the debt, and where the Company expects to collect all amounts due including interest accrued at the contractual interest rate for the period of delay at contractual maturity, the modification is not designated a TDR.

Modifications to commercial loans may include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rate, maturity, amortization and financial covenants. In the original underwriting, loan terms are established that represent the then-current and projected financial condition of the borrower. If the modified terms are consistent with competitive market conditions and representative of terms the borrower could otherwise obtain in the open market, the modified loan is not categorized as a TDR.

The Company began coding modification on the core processing system during the second quarter of 2013. The Company uses the coding to assist in identifying troubled debt restructurings. However, the majority of modifications during the quarter were granted for competitive reasons and did not constitute troubled debt restructurings. A description of modifications that did not result in troubled debt restructurings follows:

Total modifications that do not constitute TDRs

    237     $ 14,497  

 

For a loan modification to be a TDR, the following conditions must both be present: (1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and (2) the Company makes a concession to the original contractual loan terms.

Modifications of loan terms to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are made in an attempt to protect as much of the Company’s investment in the loan as possible. The determination of whether a modification should be accounted for as a TDR requires significant judgment after consideration of all facts and circumstances surrounding the transaction.

The Company recognizes that the current economy, elevated levels of unemployment and depressed real estate values have resulted in many customers experiencing financial difficulties. The Company has restructured loan terms for certain qualified financially distressed borrowers who have agreed to work in good faith and have demonstrated the ability to make the restructured payments in order to avoid a foreclosure.

The Company’s TDRs were $7,756 at June 30, 2013, an increase from $4,156 at December 31, 2012. Accruing TDR loans amounted to $6,234 at June 30, 2013 and $2,005 at December 31, 2012. TDRs with a current payment history of at least 6 months may accrue interest. Accruing restructured loans increased with the addition of three loans totaling $3,982 restructured in 2013 that maintained sufficient current status prior to restructuring. All TDR loans are individually evaluated for impairment for purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses. TDR loans with an impairment loss or that do not demonstrate current payments for at least six months are maintained on nonaccrual until the borrower demonstrates sustained repayment history under the restructured terms and continued repayment is not in doubt. Otherwise, interest income is recognized using a cost recovery method.

Restructuring generally results in loans with either lower payments or an extended maturity beyond that originally required, and are expected to have a lower risk of loss due to nonperformance than loans classified as nonperforming. During the first half of 2013, the Company modified four loans totaling $4,222 in troubled debt restructurings, and during the first half of 2012, the Company modified eight loans totaling $1,505. Please refer to Note 4 for information on troubled debt restructurings.

The net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2013 decreased 12 basis points from the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in interest rate spread was driven by a decline in the yield on earning assets of 32 basis points offset by a decline in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities of 24 basis points. Both loans and securities experienced a decline in yields. The 32 basis point decline in the yield on loans stemmed from contractual repricing terms and the renegotiation of loan interest rates in response to competition. The yield on taxable securities was 63 basis points lower for the six months ended June 30, 2013, when compared with the same period in 2012, while the yield on nontaxable securities declined 31 basis points over the same period. The market yield for securities of a comparable term has declined over the past year, causing matured and called bonds to be replaced with lower yielding investments. The decline in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities came primarily from a 40 basis point reduction in the cost of time deposits when the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012 are compared.

The Company’s yield on earning assets and cost of funds are largely dependent on the interest rate environment. In the recent past, historically low interest rates caused funding costs to decline at a faster pace than the yield on earning assets. The decline in deposit pricing has begun to slow while competitive and market forces continue to pressure the yield on earning assets. The Company’s cost of funding is more sensitive to interest rate changes than is the yield on earning assets.

 

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses 

 

The provision for loan losses for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 was $1,026, compared with $1,776 for the six months of 2012. The provision for loan losses is the result of a detailed analysis performed to estimate an appropriate and adequate allowance for loan losses. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans at June 30, 2013 was 1.35%, which compares to 1.41% at December 31, 2012. The net charge-off ratio was 0.49% at June 30, 2013 and 0.49% at December 31, 2012. The change in the provision for loan losses was largely attributable to improvements in credit quality trends and lower net charge-offs during the first half of 2013. See “Asset Quality” for additional information.

Total noninterest expense increased $619 or 5.41% when the six months ended June 30, 2013 are compared to the same period of 2012. Most of the increase was contributed by increases in franchise tax expense and other operating expense. Bank franchise tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 increased $135 or 34.79% over the same period in 2012. The tax is calculated based on equity. Bank franchise tax expense in 2012 benefitted from refunds of prior years’ tax.

The category of other operating expenses includes noninterest expense items such as professional services, stationery and supplies, telephone costs, postage, charitable donations and other expenses. Other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 increased $388 or 27.30% from same period in 2012. Contributing to the increase were higher marketing and business development expenses.

FDIC assessment expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 increased $62 or 29.52% over the same period for 2012. The calculation to determine the FDIC assessment uses assets as the assessment base.

Occupancy, furniture and fixtures expense increased 5.29%, from $794 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $836 as of June 30, 2013.

Salary and benefits expense was $5,932 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, similar to the $5,910 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Credit card processing expense declined by 0.99% from the total for the six months ended June 30, 2012. This expense is driven by volume and other factors and is subject to a degree of variability.

Net costs of other real estate owned decreased $11 from the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $140 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. This expense category includes maintenance costs as well as valuation write-downs and gains and losses on the sale of properties. The expense varies with the number of properties, the maintenance required and changes in the real estate market.

Data processing and ATM expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 remained at a similar level to the amount for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The expense for intangibles amortization is related to acquisitions. There were no acquisitions in the past year, with minimal change in expense between the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Growth in real estate construction, and public sector loans was offset by declines in other categories. Real estate construction loans grew by $5,993 and public sector loans grew by $137 from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013.

The 7.50% decline in consumer non real estate loans continues a trend that has been evident over the past several years. The availability of low cost dealer auto loans and other products, such as home equity lines of credit, make traditional consumer installment loans less attractive to customers.

Commercial real estate loans declined $4,246 from December 31, 2012 while consumer real estate loans declined $1,365 or 0.95%. Commercial non real estate loans decreased by $2,292 or 6.14% from December 31, 2012. The declines are due to market, economic and competitive forces and are not the result of changes in lending policies.

The Company does not now, nor has it ever, offered certain types of higher-risk loans such as subprime loans, option ARM products, reverse mortgages or loans with initial teaser rates.

These increases were offset by a decline in noninterest bearing demand deposits and time deposits of $18,226, or 4.32%, when June 30, 2013 is compared with December 31, 2012. Historically low rates have caused a migration from time deposits to other types of deposits. As longer-term certificates of deposit mature, customers are unwilling to commit their funds for extended periods at low interest rates. Time deposits do not include any brokered deposits.

 

Liquidity

 

Liquidity measures the Company’s ability to meet its financial commitments at a reasonable cost. Demands on the Company’s liquidity include funding additional loan demand and accepting withdrawals of existing deposits. The Company has diverse sources of liquidity, including customer and purchased deposits, customer repayments of loan principal and interest, sales, calls and maturities of securities, Federal Reserve discount window borrowing, short-term borrowing, and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances. At June 30, 2013, the bank did not have purchased deposits, discount window borrowings, short-term borrowings, or FHLB advances. To assure that short-term borrowing is readily available, the Company tests accessibility annually.

Liquidity from securities is restricted by accounting and business considerations. The securities portfolio is segregated into available-for-sale and held-to-maturity. The Company considers only securities designated available-for-sale for typical liquidity needs. Further, portions of the securities portfolio are pledged to meet state requirements for public funds deposits. Discount window borrowings also require pledged securities. Increased or decreased liquidity from public funds deposits or discount window borrowings results in increased or decreased liquidity from pledging requirements. The Company monitors public funds pledging requirements and the amount of unpledged available-for-sale securities that are accessible for liquidity needs.

Regulatory capital levels determine the Company’s ability to utilize purchased deposits and the Federal Reserve discount window for liquidity needs. At June 30, 2013, the Company is considered well capitalized and does not have any restrictions on purchased deposits or the Federal Reserve discount window.

The Company monitors factors that may increase its liquidity needs. Some of these factors include deposit trends, large depositor activity, maturing deposit promotions, interest rate sensitivity, maturity and repricing timing gaps between assets and liabilities, the level of unfunded loan commitments and loan growth. At June 30, 2013, the Company’s liquidity is sufficient to meet projected trends in these areas.

To monitor and estimate liquidity levels, the Company performs stress testing under varying assumptions on credit sensitive liabilities. It also tests the sources and amounts of balance sheet and external liquidity available to replace outflows. The Company’s Contingency Funding Plan sets forth avenues for rectifying liquidity shortfalls. At June 30, 2013, the analysis indicated adequate liquidity under the tested scenarios.

The Company utilizes several other strategies to maintain sufficient liquidity. Loan and deposit growth are managed to keep the loan to deposit ratio within the Company’s own policy range of 65% to 75%. At June 30, 2013, the loan to deposit ratio was 62.66%, slightly below the Company’s internal target. The investment strategy takes into consideration the term of the investment, and securities in the available for sale portfolio are laddered to account for projected funding needs.

 

Capital Resources

 

Total stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2013 was $145,538, a decrease of $4,571, or 3.05%, from the $150,109 at December 31, 2012. The Tier I and Tier II risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2013 were 21.8% and 22.9%, respectively. Capital levels remain significantly above the regulatory minimum capital requirements of 4.0% for Tier I and 8.0% for Tier II capital.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

In the normal course of business, NBB extends lines of credit and letters of credit to its customers. Depending on their needs, customers may draw upon lines of credit at any time in any amount up to a pre-approved limit. Standby letters of credit are issued for two purposes. Financial letters of credit guarantee payments to facilitate customer purchases. Performance letters of credit guarantee payment if the customer fails to complete a specific obligation.

Historically, the full approved amount of letters and lines of credit has not been drawn at any one time. The Company has developed plans to meet a sudden and substantial funding demand. These plans include accessing a line of credit with a correspondent bank, borrowing from the FHLB, selling available for sale investments or loans and raising additional deposits.

The Company sells mortgages on the secondary market for which there are recourse agreements should the borrower default. Mortgages must meet strict underwriting and documentation requirements for the sale to be completed. The Company has determined that its risk in this area is not significant because of a low volume of secondary market mortgage loans and high underwriting standards. The Company estimates a potential loss reserve for recourse provisions that is not material as of June 30, 2013. To date, no recourse provisions have been invoked. If funds were needed, the Company would access the same sources as noted above for funding lines and letters of credit.

There were no material changes in off-balance sheet arrangements during the six months ended June 30, 2013, except for normal seasonal fluctuations in the total of mortgage loan commitments.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

The Company had no capital lease or purchase obligations and no long-term debt at June 30, 2013. Operating lease obligations, which are for buildings used in the Company’s day-to-day operations, were not material at the end of the six months of 2013 and have not changed materially from those which were disclosed in the Company’s 2012 Form 10-K/A.

 

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

The Company considers interest rate risk to be a significant market risk and has systems in place to measure the exposure of net interest income to adverse movement in interest rates. Interest rate shock analyses provide management with an indication of potential economic loss due to future rate changes. There have not been any changes which would significantly alter the results disclosed as of December 31, 2012 in the Company’s 2012 Form 10-K/A.

 Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2013 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

There were changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the six months ended June 30, 2013 that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting. Additional information with respect to this issue is included in the discussion below.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

In March 2013, following the examination of the Company’s subsidiary, The National Bank of Blacksburg, by its primary federal regulator, the Company identified a material weakness in Company’s internal control over classifying certain loans as impaired and nonaccrual within the appropriate regulatory timeframe. After management discovered the material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting described above, management implemented additional internal control procedures to ensure that more thorough review procedures are in place over the determination of classifying certain loans as impaired and nonaccrual. In addition, the Company changed the workflow of the procedures and segregated duties among the lending department, credit administration department and accounting department to properly identify and disclose impaired loans. Also, following the examination of the Bank, and as a means of corrective action, the Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, established a task force of Company and Bank employees who reviewed all commercial relationships over $500,000 in the Bank’s portfolio to ensure compliance with Bank and regulatory policies relating to nonaccrual classification. This task force determined that the loans constituting the remaining portfolio of commercial relationships over $500,000 were properly classified.

 

These changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting procedures were implemented and deemed effective by management as of June 30, 2013.

 

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, the Company believes that no system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected.
