Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements include accounts of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a stock holding company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Rhinebeck Bank (the “Bank”), a New York chartered stock savings bank. The primary purpose of the Company is to act as a holding company for the Bank. The Bank provides a full range of banking and financial services to consumer and commercial customers through its eleven branches and two representative offices located in Dutchess, Ulster, Orange, and Albany counties. Financial services including investment advisory and financial product sales are offered through a division of the Bank doing business as Rhinebeck Asset Management (“RAM”).

The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.

A description of the Company's significant accounting policies are presented below.

Basis of Financial Statements Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and general practices within the banking industry. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of securities and other real estate owned, the evaluation of investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment, the evaluation of goodwill for impairment, the valuation of deferred tax assets and the determination of pension obligations.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. As a result of the reorganization, the consolidation refers to the Company and the Bank for the periods after January 16, 2019 and Rhinebeck Bancorp, MHC, a New York chartered mutual holding company, and the Bank for the periods prior to January 16, 2019. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located in the New York State counties of Dutchess, Ulster, Orange, Columbia, Putnam, and Albany. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its customers’ abilities to repay their loans is dependent on the economic conditions in the territories in which the Company operates.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and due from banks and federal funds sold are recognized as cash equivalents in the consolidated statements of financial condition and cash flows. Federal funds sold generally mature in one day. The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of six months or less to be cash equivalents.

Investment in Debt and Marketable Equity Securities

Debt securities, if any, that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and are recorded at amortized cost. “Trading” securities, if any, are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings. Securities not classified as held to maturity or trading, including equity securities with readily determinable fair values, are classified as “available for sale” and are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of taxes. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the maturity terms of the securities. Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

The Company evaluates securities for other-than temporary impairment on a regular basis. The evaluation considers several factors including the amount of the unrealized loss, the period of time the security has been in a loss position and the credit standing of the issuer. When the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is likely that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, the credit loss determined due to a permanent impairment will be recognized in earnings. The credit loss component recognized is identified as the amount of future principal cash flows not expected to be received over the remaining term of the security as projected based on cash flow estimates discounted at the applicable original yield of the security.

Loans Receivable

Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for unearned income, including any allowance for loan losses and any unamortized deferred fees or costs.

Interest income is accrued based on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and amortized as a level yield adjustment over the respective term of the loan.

The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due. Consumer automobile and installment loans are typically charged off no later than 180 days past due. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on non-accrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued, but not collected, for loans that are placed on non-accrual status or charged off, is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis method until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management determines all or part of the loan balance is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the size and composition of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance calculation methodology involves segregation of the total loan portfolio into segments. The Company’s loans receivable portfolio is comprised of the following segments: commercial real estate, residential real estate, commercial and industrial and consumer. The segments of the Company’s loans receivable portfolio are further disaggregated into classes based on identified associated risks within those segments. This allows management to better monitor risk and performance.

Commercial real estate loans are separated into two classes: non-residential and multi-family. Non-residential and multi-family loans include long-term loans financing commercial properties and include both owner and non-owner occupied properties. Construction loans, which include land loans, are comprised mostly of non-owner occupied projects, whereby the property is generally under development and tends to have more risk than the owner occupied loans. The Company grants loans for the construction of residential homes, residential developments and land development projects. Repayment of these loans is mostly dependent upon either the ongoing cash flows of the borrowing entity or the resale or lease of the subject property.

Residential real estate loans are secured by the borrower’s residential real estate generally in a first lien position. Residential mortgages have varying loan interest rates depending on the financial condition of the borrower, the loan to value ratio and the term of the loan.

The commercial and industrial loan segment consists of loans made for purposes of financing the activities of commercial customers. The assets financed through commercial and industrial loans are used within the business for its ongoing operations. Repayment of commercial and industrial loans predominately comes from the cash flows of the business or the ongoing operations of assets.

Consumer loans are classified into the following three classes: indirect automobile loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans. Indirect automobile loans are secured by the borrowers’ automobiles and originated through the Company’s relationships with the automobile dealers in the various counties in the Company’s service area. Home equity loans are secured by the borrower’s residential real estate in a first or second lien position. Other direct consumer loans may be unsecured.

The Company has established credit policies applicable to each type of lending activity in which it engages. The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of each customer and, in most cases, extends credit of up to 80% of the market value of the collateral at the date of the credit extension. The Company’s credit policies determine advance rates against the different forms of collateral that can be pledged against commercial and industrial, commercial and residential real estate and consumer loans. Typically, the majority of loans will be limited to a percentage of their underlying collateral values such as real estate values, automobiles, equipment, eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Individual loan advance rates may be higher or lower depending upon the financial strength of the borrower, past experience with the borrower, the nature of the collateral, competitive offerings and/or the term of the loan.

The market value of collateral is monitored on an ongoing basis and additional collateral may be obtained when warranted. While collateral provides some assurance as a secondary source of repayment, the Company ordinarily requires the primary source of repayment to be based on the borrower's ability to generate continuing sufficient cash flows. The Company's policy for collateral requires that, generally, the amount of the loan may not exceed 90% of the original appraised value of the property. Private mortgage insurance is usually required for that portion of the loan in excess of 80% of the appraised value of the property.

The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories. The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated at least quarterly or when credit deficiencies arise, such as when loan payments are delinquent. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of “special mention”, “substandard”, “doubtful” and “loss”. Loans classified as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects. Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified as substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable. Loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Loans not classified are rated “pass”.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are considered impaired. For such impaired loans, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or observable market price or collateral value if the loan is collateral dependent) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers all other loans, segregated generally by loan type and is based on historical loss experience with adjustments for qualitative factors which are made after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss data.

These qualitative risk factors generally include:

Lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery practices.

National, regional and local economic and business conditions as well as the condition of various market segments, including the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans.

Size and composition of the portfolio and the terms of loans.

Volume and severity of past due, classified and non-accrual loans as well as loan modifications.

Existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations.

Effect of external factors, such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls are not necessarily classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and real estate loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The estimated fair values of substantially all of the Company’s impaired loans are measured based on the estimated fair value of the loans’ collateral.

For loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals. When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including the size of the loan, age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property. Appraised values are discounted for expected sales costs to arrive at the estimated recognizable value of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value. The recorded investment in consumer mortgages and loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process was $687 and $526 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

For loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets.

The evaluation of the need and amount of the allowance for impaired loans and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis. The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.

The Company may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial condition that it would not otherwise consider resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). These concessions could include a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions intended to maximize collection. Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculating the Company's allowance for loan losses.

The Company identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and evaluation of the borrower's financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns and credit reports. Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, negative trends, or specific conditions may result in a payment default in the near future.

Regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are those loans the Company has the intent to sell in the foreseeable future and are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market value, with valuation changes recorded in noninterest income. Gains and losses on sales of loans are recognized at the trade dates and are determined by the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying value of the loans. Mortgage loans held for sale are generally sold with the mortgage servicing rights retained by the Company.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company – put presumptively beyond the reach of the transferor and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (3) the transferor does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through either (a) an agreement that both entitles and obligates the transferor to repurchase or redeem the assets before maturity or (b) the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets, other than through a cleanup call.

Mortgage Servicing Assets

Mortgage servicing assets are recognized as separate assets developed through the sale of mortgages. Servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value with the income statement effect recorded in gain or loss on sales of loans. Fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, such as the cost to service, the discount rate, the custodial earnings rate, an inflation rate, ancillary income, prepayment speeds and default rates and losses. Capitalized servicing rights are reported in other assets and are amortized into noninterest income in proportion to and over the period of the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets.

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance and charged to noninterest income, to the extent that fair value is less than the capitalized amount. If the Company later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists, a reduction of the allowance may be recorded as an increase to income.

Other Real Estate Owned

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in operations. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property are capitalized, subject to the resulting limit of fair value of the collateral. Gains or losses are included in operations upon disposal. Other real estate owned (“OREO”) included $935 and $935 of residential real estate and $643 and $750 of commercial property at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is charged to operations using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Rent expense is charged to operations over the expected lease term using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the improvements' estimated economic lives or the related lease terms. Gains and losses on dispositions are recognized upon realization. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and improvements are capitalized.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance

The Company purchased bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) on a chosen group of employees and trustees. The Company is the owner and sole beneficiary of the policies. Earnings from BOLI are recognized as part of noninterest income. BOLI is carried at cash surrender value. Death benefit proceeds received in excess of the policies cash surrender values are recognized in income upon receipt. The Company does not intend to surrender these policies and, accordingly, no deferred taxes have been provided.

Goodwill and Amortizable Intangible Assets

The excess of the purchase price of an acquisition over the net fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities is assigned to goodwill. Goodwill is not amortizable, but is subject to at least an annual assessment, or more frequently in the presence of certain circumstances, for impairment.

Other intangible assets are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization and consist of purchased customer accounts. Purchased customer accounts primarily consist of records and files that contain information about investment holdings. These assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related estimated lives of 13 years and 4 months. In the presence of certain circumstances, intangible assets may be assessed for impairment as well. Impairment exists when carrying value exceeds its fair value. In such circumstances a charge for the relevant impairment is recognized and the net book value is reduced to the appropriate value.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly expected that most positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others may be subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company had no liabilities for uncertain tax positions at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, if any, would be classified as an additional provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of income.

Comprehensive Income or Loss

GAAP requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities and the net actuarial gain or loss of the defined benefit pension plan, are reported as a separate component of the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated statements of financial condition, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income or loss.

Fair Value

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in certain instances, there are no quoted market prices for certain assets or liabilities. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the asset or liability.

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Fair value measurements focus on exit prices in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment.

The Company's fair value measurements are classified into a fair value hierarchy based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The three categories within the hierarchy are as follows:

	Level 1	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

	Level 2	Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active; and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

	Level 3	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. ASU No. 2014-09 establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company used the modified retrospective method for transition with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application with no restatement of prior periods. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as the recognition of interest income has been scoped out of the guidance and noninterest income recognition is similar to current revenue recognition practices. See Note 14 for additional information related to the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842).” This standard requires entities that lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 for public companies, but the Company will have until the first quarter of 2020 to adopt due to its emerging growth company status. The guidance is required to be applied by the modified retrospective transition approach. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements and collecting the data necessary for that assessment and adoption.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 on “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. This ASU requires credit losses on most financial assets be measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments to be measured using an expected credit loss model (referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model). Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument (considering estimated prepayments, but not expected extensions or modifications unless reasonable expectation of a troubled debt restructuring exists) from the date of initial recognition of that instrument. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. On July 17, 2019, the FASB voted to propose a delay for conversion to the CECL methodology to January 2023 for all companies other than large SEC filers; although early adoption is permitted in 2019. The Company is currently assessing the effect that ASU No. 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07, “Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting”. This update expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. As a result, nonemployee share-based payment awards will be measured at the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments that an entity is obligated to issue when the service has been rendered, subject to the probability of satisfying performance conditions when applicable. The Company has not and does not expect to engage in this type of compensation practice, and therefore this update did not and likely will not, have an effect on the Company.

Emerging Growth Company Status

As an emerging growth company, the Company may delay adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until such date that the standards are required to be adopted by non-issuer companies. If such standards would not apply to non-issuer companies, no deferral would be applicable. The Company intends to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition periods allowed under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act.

Accordingly, the Company's consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to those of public companies that adopt new or revised financial accounting standards as of an earlier date. The effective dates of the recent accounting standards reflect those that relate to non-issuer companies.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had 59 and 96 individual available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses totaling $703 and $3,273, respectively, with an aggregate depreciation of 1.31% and 3.35%, respectively, from the Company’s amortized cost.

Management believes that none of the unrealized losses on available for sale securities are other-than-temporary because substantially all of the unrealized losses in the Company’s investment portfolio relate to market interest rate changes on debt and mortgage-backed securities issued either directly by the government or from government sponsored enterprises. Because the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company did not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

A loan is considered impaired when based on current information and events it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Impaired loans include nonperforming loans and loans modified as troubled debt restructurings. Loan modifications, which resulted in these loans being considered TDRs, are primarily in the form of rate concessions and extensions of maturity dates. The Company does not generally recognize interest income on a loan in an impaired status. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, three loans totaling $1,716 and the same three loans totaling $1,774, respectively, included in impaired loans, were identified as TDRs. There were no new TDRs in the first half of 2019. In 2018, the Company restructured two loans, a residential mortgage and home equity loan, into a single residential mortgage, with a carrying value of $117, which included both rate and term modifications. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all TDR loans were performing in accordance with their restructured terms. During the year ended December 31, 2018, one loan for $19 had defaulted in its modified terms and was charged off. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no commitments to advance additional funds to borrowers under TDR loans.

The Company services certain loans that it has sold without recourse to third parties. The aggregate balances of loans serviced for others were $261,559 and $255,892 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The balance of capitalized servicing rights, included in other assets at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, were $2,203 and $2,278, respectively. Fair value exceeds carrying value. No impairment charges related to servicing rights were recognized during the period ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018.

Borrowings under this line require collateralization through the pledge of specific loans and securities. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank had pledged assets of $160,493 and $145,805, respectively. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank had outstanding overnight line of credit balances with FHLB of $12,500 and $0, respectively. These borrowings mature the following business day. The interest rate was 2.45% at June 30, 2019. At June 30, 2019, the Bank also had structured borrowings in the amount of $52,041. The outstanding principal amounts and the related terms and rates at June 30, 2019 were as follows:

Subordinated Debt

As part of the reorganization completed on January 16, 2019, the Company acquired both the common securities and related obligations of RSB Capital Trust I (“Trust”). The Trust, which has no independent assets or operations, was formed in 2005 for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and investing the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of junior subordinated debentures. The proceeds from the issuance of the trust preferred securities are currently considered Tier 1 capital for purposes of determining the Bank’s capital ratios. The trust securities also bear interest at 3-month LIBOR plus 2.00%. The duration of the Trust is 30 years.

The subordinated debt securities of $5,155 are unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The Company has entered into a guarantee, which together with its obligations under the subordinated debt securities and the declaration of trust governing the Trust, including its obligations to pay costs, expenses, debts and liabilities, other than trust securities, provides a full and unconditional guarantee of amounts on the capital securities. The subordinated debentures, which bear interest at 3-month LIBOR plus 2.00% (4.32% at June 30, 2019 and 4.65% at December 31, 2018) mature on May 23, 2035.

Other Borrowings

In December 2018 Rhinebeck Bancorp, MHC entered into an agreement with Atlantic Community Bankers Bank to provide it with a $5,000 line of credit at a rate equal to the Wall Street Journal prime rate of interest plus 0.50% to provide a temporary source of additional funds. At December 31, 2018 the entire line was drawn and the funds were down-streamed to the Bank as capital to support year-end capital ratios that were impacted by the influx of cash for subscription orders related to the reorganization and stock offering. On January 15, 2019 the Bank paid a $5,100 dividend to Rhinebeck Bancorp, MHC which then paid off the borrowing. After the closing of the offering, the facility converted to Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and remains in place for backstop liquidity purposes. On June 30, 2019, the Company had no amount outstanding on the line.

The Bank also has an unsecured, uncommitted $10,000 line of credit with Zions Bank. There were no advances outstanding under this line of credit at either June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

	Six months ended June 30,			Year ended December 31,
	2019			2018
	(unaudited)
Projected and accumulated benefit obligation	$	(20,390	)	$	(18,241	)
Plan assets at fair value		19,608			17,459
Funded status included in other liabilities	$	(782	)	$	(782	)

The net periodic pension (benefit) cost and amounts recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) are as follows:

	Six months ended June 30,			Year ended December 31,
	2019			2018
	(unaudited)
Interest cost	$	370		$	689
Expected return on plan assets		(470	)		(1,074	)
Amortization of unrecognized loss		219			374
Net periodic cost (benefit)	$	119		$	(11	)

The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets has been determined by applying historical average investment returns from published indexes relating to the current allocation of assets in the plan. Plan assets are invested in pooled separate accounts consisting of underlying investments in ten diversified investment funds.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the investment funds included six equity funds and four fixed income funds, comprised of three bond funds and a real estate fund, each with its own investment objectives, investment strategies and risks, as detailed in the Company’s investment policy statement. The Company determines the appropriate strategic asset allocation versus plan liabilities, as governed by the investment policy statement.

The assets of the plan are invested under the supervision of the Company’s investment committee in accordance with the investment policy statement. The investment options of the plan are chosen in a manner consistent with generally accepted standards of fiduciary responsibility. The investment performance of the Company’s individual investment managers, with the assistance of the Company’s investment consultant, is monitored on a quarterly basis and is reviewed at least annually relative to the objectives and guidelines as stated in the Company’s investment policy statement.

In 2018, the Company made a contribution to the plan in the amount of $570. The Company does not expect to make a contribution in 2019.

The fair value of the Company’s pension plan assets, by fair value hierarchy, are as follows:

Assets:
Investment in separate accounts
Fixed income	$	-	$	15,169	$	-	$	15,169

Equity		-		3,821		-		3,821
Total assets at fair value	$	-	$	17,459	$	-	$	17,459

The pooled separate accounts are valued at the net asset per unit based on either the observable net asset value of the underlying investment or the net asset value of the underlying pool of securities. Net asset value is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities and then divided by the number of shares outstanding. Pooled separate accounts are classified within level 2 of the valuation hierarchy described in Note 1.

For a detailed disclosure on the Bank’s pension and employee benefits plans, please refer to Note 11 of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Defined Contribution Plan

The Company sponsors a 401(k) defined contribution plan. Participants are permitted, in accordance with the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, to contribute up to 25% of their earnings (as defined) into the plan with the Company matching up to 6%, subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. The Company’s contributions charged to operations amounted to $442 and $378 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The Company has an investment in and is the beneficiary of, life insurance policies on the lives of certain officers and trustees. The purpose of these life insurance policies is to provide income through the appreciation in cash surrender value of the policies, which is expected to offset the cost of the deferred compensation plans. These policies have aggregate cash surrender values of $18,218 and $18,018 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Net earnings on these policies aggregated $200 and $199 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which are included in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.

Deferred Compensation Arrangements

Directors’ Plan

The Bank’s Deferred Compensation Plan for Fees of Directors (the “Directors’ Plan” as amended and restated effective January 1, 2005) covers Directors who elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of their fees until separation from service. Upon resignation, retirement, or death the participant’s total deferred compensation, including earnings thereon, will be paid out. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, total amounts due of $1,918 and $1,687, respectively, are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities. Total expenses related to the Directors’ Plan were $62 and $65 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which were included in noninterest expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Executive Long-Term Incentive and Retention Plan

The Bank maintains an Executive Long-Term Incentive and Retention Plan (the “Executive Plan”). Participation in the Executive Plan is limited to officers of the Company designated as participants by the Board of Directors and who filed a properly completed and executed participation agreement in accordance with the terms of the Executive Plan. Under the Executive Plan, the Board of Directors may grant annual incentive awards equal to a percentage of a participant’s base salary at the rate in effect on the last day of the Plan year, as determined by the Board of Directors based on the attainment of criteria established annually by the Board of Directors. Incentive awards under the Executive Plan are credited to the participant’s incentive benefit account as of the last day of the Executive Plan year to which the award relates and earn interest at a rate determined annually by the Board of Directors. Participants vest in their benefit accounts in accordance with the vesting schedule approved by the Board of Directors, which ranges from one to five years of service. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $998 and $975, respectively, is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities, which represents the cumulative amounts deferred and earnings thereon. The Company recognized expenses of $271 and $175 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to this plan and which are included in salaries and employee benefits expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Group Term Replacement Plan

Under the terms of the “Group Term Replacement Plan”, the Company provides postretirement life insurance benefits to certain officers. The liability related to these postretirement benefits is being accrued over the individual participants’ service period and aggregated $1,303 and $1,276, respectively, at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company recognized expenses of $26 for each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, related to this plan which are included in salaries and employee benefits expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Other Director and Officer Postretirement Benefits

The Company has individual fee continuation agreements with certain directors and a supplemental retirement agreement with an executive officer which provide for fixed postretirement benefits to be paid to the directors and the officer, or their beneficiaries, for periods ranging from 15 to 20 years. In addition, the Company has agreements with certain directors which provide for certain postretirement life insurance benefits. The liability related to these postretirement benefits is being accrued over the individual participants’ service period and aggregated $2,124 and $2,108, respectively, at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company recognized expenses of $48 and $51 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to these benefits which are included in other noninterest expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

On January 1, 2019, the Bank established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) to provide eligible employees the opportunity to own Company stock. The plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of Bank employees. On January 16, 2019, the Company granted a loan to the ESOP for the purchase of 436,425 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $10.00 per share. The loan obtained by the ESOP from the Company to purchase the common stock is payable annually over 20 years at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate, reset annually on January 1st (5.50% at December 31, 2018). Loan payments are principally funded by cash contributions from the Bank. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. The balance of the ESOP loan at June 30, 2019 was $4.4 million. Contributions are allocated to eligible participants on the basis of compensation, subject to federal tax limits. The number of shares committed to be released annually is 21,821 through 2039.

Shares held by the ESOP include the following:

	June 30, 2019
Allocated		-
Committed to be allocated		10,910
Unallocated		425,515
Total shares		436,425

The fair value of unallocated shares was $4.7 million at June 30, 2019.

Total compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESOP for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $183.

Commitments and Contingencies

Leases and Subleases

The Company leases certain branch offices and equipment under operating lease agreements which expire at various dates through 2025. The Company has the option to renew the leases for its branch offices at fair rental values. In addition to rental payments, the branch leases require payments for property taxes in excess of base year taxes.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

As of June 30, 2019, future minimum rental commitments under the terms of these leases, by year and in the aggregate, are as follows:

Years ending December 31:
2019	$	337
2020		641
2021		564
2022		509
2023		486
2024 and beyond		477

Total	$	3,014

Total rental expense charged to operations for cancelable and non-cancelable operating leases was $323 and $317 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Rental income under subleases was $137 and $163 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Legal Matters

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of business. Management believes that resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Employment Agreements

The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain officers. The agreements provide for base salaries and incentive compensation based on performance criteria outlined in the agreements. The agreements also provide for insurance and various other benefits.

11.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit, which include new loan commitments and undisbursed portions of construction loans and other lines of credit. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The contractual amounts of commitments to extend credit represent the amounts of potential loss should the contract be fully drawn upon, the customer defaults and the value of any existing collateral become worthless. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent off-balance sheet credit risk are as follows:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2019		2018
	(unaudited)
Commitments to extend credit summarized as follows:
Future loan commitments	$	3,910	$	3,157
Undisbursed construction loans		11,188		16,289
Undisbursed home equity lines of credit		9,716		9,532
Undisbursed commercial and other line of credit		52,402		50,773
Standby letters of credit		2,922		1,785
Total	$	80,138	$	81,536

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. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Since these commitments could expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include residential and commercial property, deposits and securities.

12.

Regulatory Matters

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

The final rules implementing the BASEL Committee on Banking Supervisor’s Capital Guidance for U.S. Banks (BASEL III) became effective for the Company and Bank on January 1, 2016. Compliance with the requirements was phased in over a four year period with full compliance as of January 1, 2019. All presented capital ratios are calculated using BASEL III rules.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the tables below) of total, common equity Tier 1 and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, common equity Tier 1, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since then, which management believes have changed the Bank's category.

Fair Value

As described in Note 1, the Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and for estimating fair value for financial and non-financial instruments not recorded at fair value, is set forth below.

Cash and Due from Banks, Accrued Interest Receivable and Mortgagors' Escrow Accounts

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Available for Sale Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market for identical securities, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include marketable equity securities and U.S. Treasury obligations. If quoted prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models (i.e., matrix pricing) or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Examples of such instruments include government agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds. The Company does not have any Level 3 securities for which significant unobservable inputs are utilized. Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and held to maturity securities are only disclosed at fair value.

FHLB Stock

The carrying value of FHLB stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.

Loans

Loans receivable are carried at cost. For variable rate loans which reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, carrying values are a reasonable estimate of fair values, adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the year end rates, estimated using local market data, at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, nonrecurring fair value adjustments to collateral-dependent impaired loans are recorded to reflect partial write-downs based on the observable market price or current appraised value of collateral. The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated using quoted market prices.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through foreclosure and is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is utilized in the fair value measurements.

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

Deposits

Deposit liabilities are carried at cost. The fair value of NOW, savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities estimated using local market data to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities on such deposits.

Advances from the FHLB

The fair value of the advances is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current FHLB interest rates for advances of similar maturity to a schedule of maturities of such advances.

Subordinated Debt

Based on the floating rate characteristic of these instruments, the carrying value is considered to approximate fair value.

Other Borrowings

Based on the floating rate characteristic of these instruments, the carrying value is considered to approximate fair value.

Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments

Fair values for off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties' credit standings. Such amounts are not significant.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

The Company discloses fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the statements of financial condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. Certain financial instruments are excluded from disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

The estimated fair value amounts for 2019 and 2018 have been measured as of their respective reporting dates and have not been reevaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than amounts reported at each year-end.

The information presented should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only required for a limited portion of the Company's assets and liabilities. Due to the wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company's disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generally fully satisfies its performance obligations on its contracts with customers as services are rendered and the transaction prices are typically fixed; charged either on a periodic basis or based on activity. Because performance obligations are satisfied as services are rendered and the transaction prices are fixed, there is little judgment involved in applying Topic 606 that significantly affects the determination of the amount and timing of revenue from contracts with customers. The main types of revenue contracts included in non-interest income within the consolidated statements of operations are as follows:

Fees for services to customers include service charges on deposits which are included as liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial condition and consist of transaction-based fees: stop payment fees, Automated Clearing House (ACH) fees, account maintenance fees, wire fees, official check fees and overdraft services fees for various retail and business checking customers. These fees are charged as earned on the day of the transaction or within the month of the service. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn directly from the customer’s account balance. ATM and debit card fees are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Sales of checks to depositors earn fees as a contractual discount to the retail price of the sale from a third-party provider. These fees earned are remitted by the third-party to the Company quarterly.

The Company earns interchange fee income from credit/debit cardholder transactions conducted through MasterCard payment networks. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized monthly, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder within the month.

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of OREO when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed; at this time the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on the sale is recorded. Rental income received from leased OREO property is recognized during the month it is earned.

Retail brokerage and advisory fee income is accrued monthly to properly record the revenues in the month they are earned. Advisory fees are collected in advance on a quarterly basis. These advisory fees are recorded in the first month of the quarter for which the service is being performed. Investments into mutual funds and annuities generate fees that are recorded as revenue at the time of the initial sale. In subsequent years the mutual funds and variable annuities generate recurring fees (referred to as 12B-1 fees) that are paid in advance on the anniversary of the original transaction. Fees that are transaction based are recognized at the point in time that the transaction is executed (i.e. trade date). Life insurance products are sold on a commission basis that generates a fee that is recorded as revenue within the month of the approved transaction.

Other income includes rental income, mortgage origination and service fees and late fees on serviced mortgages. All items are recorded as revenue within the month that the service is provided.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Bank. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect”, "intend", “predict”, “forecast”, “improve”, “continue”, "will", "would", "should", "could", "may" and words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

These forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of our management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. Forward looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:

•

general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market area, that are worse than expected;

•

changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and charge-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses;

•

our ability to access cost-effective funding;

•

fluctuations in real estate values and both residential and commercial real estate market conditions;

•

demand for loans and deposits in our market area;

•

our ability to continue to implement our business strategies;

•

competition among depository and other financial institutions;

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

•

inflation and changes in market interest rates that reduce our margins and yields, reduce the fair value of financial instruments or reduce our volume of loan originations, or increase the level of defaults, losses and prepayments on loans we have made and make whether held in portfolio or sold in the secondary market;

•

adverse changes in the securities markets;

•

changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements;

•

our ability to manage interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk and operational risk;

•

our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities;

•

the imposition of tariffs or other domestic or international governmental polices impacting the value of the agricultural or other products of our borrowers;

•

our ability to successfully integrate into our operations any assets, liabilities or systems we may acquire, as well as new management personnel or customers, and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames and any goodwill charges related thereto;

•

changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

•

changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;

•

our ability to retain key employees;

•

our compensation expense associated with equity allocated or awarded to our employees; and

•

changes in the financial condition, results of operations or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own.

Additional factors that may affect our results are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading “Risk Factors.” Because of these and other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on such statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

A summary of our accounting policies is described in Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included Item 1 of this report. Critical accounting estimates are necessary in the application of certain accounting policies and procedures and are particularly susceptible to significant change. Critical accounting policies are defined as those involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that could have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income under different assumptions or conditions. Actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates under different conditions, resulting in a change that could have a material impact on the carrying values of our assets and liabilities and our results of operations. Management believes that the most critical accounting policies, which involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments, are as follows:

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Allowance for Loan Losses. The methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting policy by management because of the high degree of judgment involved, the subjectivity of the assumptions used, and the potential for changes in the economic environment that could result in changes to the amount of the recorded allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is determined by management based upon portfolio segment, past experience, evaluation of estimated loss and impairment in the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other pertinent factors. Management also considers risk characteristics by portfolio segments. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that management considers adequate to provide for estimated losses and impairment based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risk in the loan portfolio. Loan impairment is evaluated based on the fair value of collateral or cash flows. While management uses the best information available to make such evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense, which is based upon past loan loss experience and an evaluation of estimated losses in the current loan portfolio, including the evaluation of impaired loans. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are: overall economic conditions; value of collateral; strength of guarantors; loss exposure at default; the amount and timing of future cash flows on impaired loans; and determination of loss factors to be applied to the various elements of the portfolio. All of these estimates are susceptible to significant change. Management regularly reviews the level of loss experience, current economic conditions and other factors related to the collectability of the loan portfolio. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, our banking regulators, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Our banking regulators may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on judgments about information available to them at the time of its examination.

Our financial results are affected by the changes in and the level of the allowance for loan losses. This process involves our analysis of internal and external variables, and it requires that we exercise judgment to estimate an appropriate allowance for loan losses. As a result of the uncertainty associated with this subjectivity, we cannot assure you that our allowance will be adequate if we experience sizeable loan losses in any particular period.

Deferred Income Taxes. At June 30, 2019, we had net deferred tax assets totaling $2.5 million. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740 “Income Taxes,” we use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. If currently available information raises doubt as to the realization of the deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance is established. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We exercise significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax assets and liabilities. These judgments require us to make projections of future taxable income. The judgments and estimates we make in determining our deferred tax assets are inherently subjective and are reviewed on a regular basis as regulatory or business factors change. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance that results in additional income tax expense in the period in which it is recognized would negatively affect earnings. Management believes, based upon current facts, that it is more likely than not that there will be sufficient taxable income in future years to realize the federal portion of its deferred tax assets. However, due to changes in New York state tax law, we do not believe we can realize our state deferred tax assets. Accordingly, we established a 100% valuation allowance or $1.2 million, against such assets.

Fair Value Measurements. The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. We estimate the fair value of a financial instrument and any related asset impairment using a variety of valuation methods. Where financial instruments are actively traded and have quoted market prices, quoted market prices are used for fair value. When the financial instruments are not actively traded, other observable market inputs, such as quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, may be used, if available, to determine fair value. When observable market prices do not exist, we estimate fair value. These estimates are subjective in nature and imprecision in estimating these factors can impact the amount of revenue or loss recorded. A more detailed description of the fair values measured at each level of the fair value hierarchy and the methodology we utilize can be found in Note 13 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this report.

Investment Securities. Available for sale and held to maturity securities are reviewed regularly for possible other-than-temporary impairment. The review includes an analysis of the facts and circumstances of each individual investment such as the severity of loss, the length of time the fair value has been below cost, the expectation for that security’s performance, the creditworthiness of the issuer and our intent and ability to hold the security to recovery. A decline in value that is considered to be other-than-temporary is recorded as a loss within non-interest income in the statements of income. At June 30, 2019, we believe the unrealized losses are primarily a result of increases in market interest rates from the time of purchase. In general, as market interest rates rise, the fair value of securities will decrease; as market interest rates fall, the fair value of securities will increase. Management generally views changes in fair value caused by changes in interest rates as temporary; therefore, these securities have not been classified as other-than-temporarily impaired. Management has also concluded that based on current information we expect to continue to receive scheduled interest payments as well as the entire principal balance. Furthermore, management does not intend to sell these securities and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before they recover in value.

Goodwill. The assets (including identifiable intangible assets) and liabilities acquired in a business combination are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is recognized for the excess of the acquisition cost over the fair values of the net assets acquired and is not subsequently amortized. Identifiable intangible assets include customer lists and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated lives. Management assesses the recoverability of goodwill at least on an annual basis and all intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. The impairment test uses a combined qualitative and quantitative approach. The initial qualitative approach assesses whether the existence of events or circumstances led to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after this assessment, we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, the two-step quantitative impairment test is performed. Step one of the quantitative impairment test compares book value to the fair value of the reporting unit. If step one is failed, a more detailed analysis is performed, which involves measuring the excess of the fair value of the reporting unit, as determined in step one, over the aggregate fair value of the individual assets, liabilities, and identifiable intangibles as if the reporting unit was being acquired in a business combination. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, an impairment charge is recorded through earnings.

Pension Obligations. We maintain a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan, which was frozen in 2012. We account for benefits under the plan in accordance with ASC Topic 715 “Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits.” The guidance requires an employer to: (1) recognize in its statement of financial position the over funded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation; (2) measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions); and (3) recognize as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax, the actuarial gains and losses and the prior service costs and credits that arise during the period.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018

Total Assets. Total assets were $913.1 million at June 30, 2019, representing an increase of $30.7 million, or 3.5%, compared to $882.4 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily related to an increase in the loan portfolio and available for sale securities, which was substantially offset by a $38.6 million decrease in cash balances on hand. Prior to year-end, subscription receipts had temporarily increased our federal fund balances to $37.1 million.

Cash and Due from Banks. Cash and due from banks decreased $38.6 million, or 76.3%, to $12.0 million at June 30, 2019 from $50.6 million at December 31, 2018 primarily due to the return of $41.1 million of unfilled subscriptions for Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc.’s stock offering.

Investment Securities Available for Sale. Investment securities available for sale increased $10.1 million, or 10.0%, to $111.4 million at June 30, 2019 from $101.3 million at December 31, 2018. This increase was due to purchases of mortgage backed securities of $18.8 million, principal pay-downs of $7.0 million and a reduction in unrealized loss of $3.3 million, offset by sales of $5.0 million.

Net Loans. Total net loans receivable were $737.3 million at June 30, 2019, an increase of $58.9 million, or 8.7%, as compared to $678.4 million at December 31, 2018. The primary increase was in our indirect automobile portfolio, which increased $41.2 million, or 13.9%, as we continued to increase the number of dealerships in Albany and grow that line of business. The net increase in commercial real estate loans totaled $16.1 million, or 7.2%, as compared to December 31, 2018. During the same period our allowance for loan losses increased $1.2 million, or 18.2%, to reflect the additional potential future risk of loss primarily related to the significant growth in our indirect automobile portfolio.

Overdue and non-accrual loans decreased $400, or 2.8%, between year end and June 30, 2019. During the same timeframe non-performing assets increased $371 or 5.0%.

Total Liabilities. Total liabilities decreased $15.6 million, or 1.9%, to $807.5 million at June 30, 2019, primarily due to the release of $88.9 million in gross subscription offering proceeds and a $5 million line of credit pay-down, offset by an increase of $32.9 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances and a $32.4 million increase in deposits.

Deposits. Overall deposits increased 4.5%, or $32.4 million, to $716.9 million at June 30, 2019. Interest bearing accounts grew 10.1%, or $51.6 million, to $564.2 million while non-interest bearing balances decreased 11.1% or $19.1 million finishing the first six months at $152.7 million.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Borrowed Funds. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank increased $32.9 million from $31.6 million at December 31, 2018 to $64.5 million at June 30, 2019, in order to support loan growth that exceeded deposit growth. A $5 million borrowing undertaken just prior to year end to maintain year end capital ratios, in light of the temporary negative impacts of our offering, was paid back at the close of the stock offering in January 2019.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders' equity increased $46.3 million to $105.6 million, primarily due to proceeds from the common stock offering of $45.7 million recorded in additional paid-in capital. At June 30, 2019, the Company’s book value per share was $9.48. At June 30, 2019, the Company's ratio of stockholders' equity-to-total assets was 11.6%, compared to 6.7% at December 31, 2018. This ratio was significantly impacted by the stock offering and reorganization. Unallocated common stock held by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan was $4.4 million at June 30, 2019.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018

Net Income. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased $642, or 110.9%, to $1.2 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $579 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Interest and dividend income increased $2.1 million, or 26.8%, interest expense increased $984, or 81.0%, the provision for loan losses increased $255, or 48.6%, noninterest income increased $549, or 62.1%, while other expenses and taxes increased $805, or 12.3%, between comparable quarters.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, net income was $2.1 million, or $0.20 per basic and diluted share, compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Interest income increased by $4.1 million, or 27.0%, and noninterest income increased $565, or 26.5%, between the two six-month periods. These revenue gains were partially offset by a $1.8 million, or 83.1%, increase in interest expense, a $510 increase in provision for loan losses, and a $1.5 million, or 11.1%, increase in other noninterest and tax expenses during the equivalent timeframes.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $1.2 million, or 17.0%, to $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities improved 4.9% to 136.5% while our net interest margin declined by 5 basis points to 3.75% when comparing the second quarter of 2019 to the same period in 2018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, net interest income increased $2.3 million, or 17.7%, to $15.5 million from $13.2 million for the comparable 2018 period. Overall there was a 1 basis point decline in net interest margin to 3.77%, when comparing the respective six month periods while the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities improved 5.3% to 137.7%.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $2.1 million, or 26.8%, to $10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $8.0 million for the comparable 2018 period. The average balances of interest-earning assets increased by $133.5 million, or 18.7%, to $847.9 million while the average yield improved 31 basis points to 4.79%

The average balance of interest-earning assets increased by $126.4 million, or 18.0%, to $828.6 million while the average yield improved by 34 basis points to 4.74% when comparing the six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

In both comparable periods, interest income increases were mostly driven by continued origination of a greater volume of higher-yielding indirect automobile loans at very favorable rates accompanied by additional production of commercial loans.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.0 million or 81.0%, to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 over the comparable 2018 period. The average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities increased by $72.4 million, or 13.2%, to $621.3 million while interest rates on those balances increased 53 basis points to an average of 1.42% when comparing the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, interest expense grew $1.8 million, or 83.1%, to $4.0 million from $2.2 million for the comparable 2018 period, while the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities increased by $64.7 million, or 12.0%, year over year. The increase in interest expense was also driven by a 52 basis point increase in the overall cost of average interest-bearing liabilities to 1.34% for the first half of 2019 from the first half of 2018.

Provision for Loan Losses. We recorded $780 in provision for loan losses for the three month period ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $525 for the comparable three month period of 2018. Management deemed the increase adequate to offset the $105 in net charge-offs experienced and to absorb the expected new losses that are forecasted to develop in the $30.4 million of growth in gross loans that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Net charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 totaled $206.

We recorded a $1.6 million provision for loan losses through the first six months of 2019 as compared to $1.1 million for the same six months in 2018, an increase of 48.6% period over period. While actual net charge-offs declined in comparative periods by $220, or 38.7%, from $568 to $348, loan balance growth, especially in our indirect automobile portfolio, required an increase in the provision for future possible risks of loss.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income totaled $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019; an increase of $549, or 62.1%, compared to $884 for the same period ended June 30, 2018. A new deposit fee schedule and retail operating improvements added $63, or 9.7%, more in service charges on deposit accounts while improved sales of residential mortgage loans during the second quarter of 2019 added $32 of additional income over the same period last year. Investment advisory income at our Rhinebeck Asset Management division was up $145, or 78.8%, to $329 quarter over quarter. Other changes between periods, including an investment portfolio reposition which resulted in a $40 loss, a decrease of $10 in rental income for other real estate owned (“OREO”) property, and a decrease in loan fees of $27, had a negative impact on overall non-interest income. An OREO write-down that occurred in the first quarter of 2018 for $387 further improved our second quarter 2019 comparative performance.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, non-interest income totaled $2.7 million, an increase of $565, or 26.5%, due to period over period increases of $167 in deposit account fees, and $210 additional investment advisory income offset by a realized loss on security sales of $39, $60 less on sales of loans, $37 less in rental income from bank held properties, and $63 less in loan fees. Again, the OREO write-down for $387 in 2018 improved 2019 comparative performance.

Non-Interest Expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, non-interest expenses increased $647 to $7.0 million, as compared to $6.4 million for the comparable 2018 period. Salaries and employee benefits increased $648, or 18.9%, attributable to annual salary merit increases, production incentives, employee benefit increases and additions to staff. Occupancy expenses grew $46, or 5.4%, mostly due to increased depreciation on the purchases of new loan software and cash recyclers in late 2018 and 2019. Data processing fees increased $49, or 16.7%, due to general increases in overall processing volumes and the additions of new technologies. Professional fees were up by $136, or 60.7%, due to increases related to our new status as a public company effective this year. Other expenses increased $4 mostly due to increases in electronic banking costs, loan production and related expenses, and transaction related charges. These increases were offset by reductions of $57, or 27.9%, in advertising, $57, or 27.9%, in FDIC insurance premiums, and $27, or 103.4%, in OREO expenses. An impairment loss on goodwill in the amount of $95 was recognized in the first quarter of 2018 further improving our second quarter 2019 comparative performance.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, non-interest expenses increased $1.2 million to $14.0 million, or 9.4%, as compared to $12.8 million for the first half of 2018. Year to date salaries and employee benefits increased $1.1 million, or 15.2%, attributable to annual salary merit increases, production incentives, employee benefit increases and additions to staff. Occupancy costs increased by $39, or 2.2%, due mainly to increased depreciation expense as the result of the purchases of new equipment and software. Data processing fees increased $82, or 14.4%, due to general increases in overall processing volumes and the additions of new technologies. Professional fees increased $208, or 49.8%, as the Company absorbed the additional expenses required of a public company. Other expenses were up 6.1%, or $131, due mostly to volume related expenses and growing loan production and servicing costs. Advertising decreased 21.4%, or $82, due mostly to timing as 2018 saw more advertising, publicity, and community support activity in that comparative period. Insurance expense reflected a decrease of $91, or 24.0%, mainly due to a reduction in our FDIC assessment. OREO expense decreased $45 comparatively over the first half of 2019 as we spent additional funds to prepare a foreclosure property for sale in 2018.

Income Taxes. Income taxes increased by $158 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the comparable period in 2018 as our income before income taxes increased. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 20.0% compared to 20.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, income taxes increased $251, or 90.0%, from $279 in the first half of 2018 to $530 for the comparable 2019 period. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was 19.9% as compared to 18.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following tables present the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the periods indicated. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Management of Market Risk

General. The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Our assets, consisting primarily of loans, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. As a result, a principal part of our business strategy is to manage our exposure to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, the Board of Directors established a management-level Asset/Liability Management Committee (the “ALCO”), which takes initial responsibility for reviewing the asset/liability management process and related procedures, establishing and monitoring reporting systems and ascertaining that established asset/liability strategies are being maintained. On at least a quarterly basis, the ALCO reviews and reports asset/liability management outcomes. This committee also implements any changes in strategies and reviews the performance of any specific asset/liability management actions that have been implemented.

We try to manage our interest rate risk to minimize the exposure of our earnings and capital to changes in market interest rates. We have implemented the following strategies to manage our interest rate risk: originating loans with adjustable interest rates or with shorter terms, promoting core deposit products, and adjusting the interest rates and maturities of funding sources, as necessary. By following these strategies, we believe that we are better positioned to react to changes in market interest rates.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Net Economic Value Simulation. We analyze our sensitivity to changes in interest rates through a net economic value of equity (“EVE”) model. EVE represents the present value of the expected cash flows from our assets less the present value of the expected cash flows arising from our liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet contracts. The EVE ratio represents the dollar amount of our EVE divided by the present value of our total assets for a given interest rate scenario. EVE attempts to quantify our economic value using a discounted cash flow methodology while the EVE ratio reflects that value as a form of capital ratio. We estimate what our EVE would be at a specific date. We then forecast what the EVE might be at the same date throughout a series of interest rate scenarios representing immediate and permanent, parallel shifts in the yield curve. We currently calculate EVE under scenarios where interest rates increase 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates and that interest rates decrease 100 basis points from current market rates.

The following table presents the estimated changes in our EVE that would result from changes in market interest rates at June 30, 2019. All estimated changes presented in the table are within the policy limits approved by our Board of Directors.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodologies used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The above table assumes that the composition of our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the date indicated remains constant uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the table provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our EVE and will likely differ from actual results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We maintain liquid assets at levels we consider adequate to meet both our short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We adjust our liquidity levels to fund deposit outflows, repay our borrowings and to fund loan commitments. We also adjust liquidity as appropriate to meet asset and liability management objectives.

Our primary sources of liquidity are deposits, loan sales, amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, and earnings and funds provided from operations, as well as access to FHLB advances and other borrowings. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan sales and prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and rates offered by our competition. We set the interest rates on our deposits to maintain a desired level of total deposits.

A portion of our liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents and borrowings, which are a product of our operating, investing and financing activities. At June 30, 2019, $12.0 million of our assets were invested in cash and cash equivalents. Short-term investment securities (maturing in one year or less) totaled $1.2 million at June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, we had $52.0 million of structured borrowings outstanding from the FHLB, of which $16.8 million is due within the next 12 months. We have access to FHLB advances of up to $456.5 million.

At June 30, 2019, we had $80.1 million in loan commitments outstanding, which included $11.2 million in undisbursed construction loans, $9.7 million in unused home equity lines of credit, $52.4 million in commercial lines of credit, $3.9 million in future loan commitments and $2.9 million in standby letters of credit. Certificates of deposit due within one year of June 30, 2019 totaled $123.4 million, or 63.9% of certificates of deposit. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before December 31, 2019. We believe, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

As reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, our cash flows are classified for financial reporting purposes as operating, investing or financing cash flows. Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.5 million and $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These amounts differ from our net income because of a variety of cash receipts and disbursements that did not affect net income for the respective periods. Net cash used for investing activities was $67.5 million and $50.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, principally reflecting our loan and investment security activities in the respective periods. Net increase in loan balances outstanding had the most significant effect, as net cash used amounted to $58.7 million and $57.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Deposit and borrowing cash flows have traditionally comprised most of our financing activities which resulted in net cash provided of $25.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The majority of net cash provided was from a $37.5 million increase in time deposits, a $32.3 million increase in long-term debt, offset by the return of unfulfilled offering subscriptions of $41.1 million.

We also have obligations under our post retirement plan as described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The post retirement benefit payments represent actuarially determined future payments to eligible plan participants. We froze our pension plan in 2012.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For information about our loan commitments, letters of credit and unused lines of credit, see Note 11 of the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we did not engage in any off-balance-sheet transactions other than loan origination commitments and standby letters of credit in the normal course of our lending activities.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related notes of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.
