Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

1.    Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

The financial statements include the 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 fifteen 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.

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 months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any other period.

The unaudited financial statements and other financial information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements, and related notes, of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. at and for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 22, 2022.

For more information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies, see the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of March 31, 2022, the critical accounting policies of the Company have not changed materially from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

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 evaluation of goodwill for impairment and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On March 12, 2021, the Bank completed a branch purchase and assumption transaction with ConnectOne Bank. Management concluded that the acquisition represented a business combination, which is accounted for using the acquisition method, with the results of operations included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date. For additional information, see Note 2.

Reclassifications

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

COVID-19

Significant progress has been made to combat the outbreak of COVID-19; however, the global pandemic has adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Company's customers operate and could still impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company. The Company’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its employees and customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions.  If there is a resurgence in the virus or variant strains of the virus increase, the Company could experience further adverse effects on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. It is not possible to know the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 and the effects it will have on the Company's future operations.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“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 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 October 16, 2019, the FASB approved a delay for conversion to the CECL methodology to January 2023 for smaller reporting companies, other public business entities, private companies and non-profits. The Company is currently assessing the effect of ASU No. 2016-13 and has engaged with a software vendor to assist in its efforts.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures”. The amendments in Update 2016-13 require that an entity measure and record the lifetime expected credit losses on an asset upon origination or acquisition, and, as a result, credit losses from loans modified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) have been incorporated into the allowance for credit losses. The amendments in this Update eliminate the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, “Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors”, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs, an entity must apply the loan refinancing and restructuring guidance in paragraphs 310-20-35-9 through 35-11 to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively, except as provided in the next sentence. For the transition method related to the recognition and measurement of TDRs, an entity has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. ASU 2022-02 is effective for the Company in 2023 upon adoption of ASU 2016-13. The Company does not expect the new guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

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 is taking 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.

2.    Acquisition

On October 26, 2020, the Bank entered into a branch purchase and assumption agreement with ConnectOne Bank, the wholly-owned subsidiary of ConnectOne Bancorp, Inc., to acquire two branches located in Orange County, New York, as well as certain deposits and other assets and liabilities. The transaction closed on March 12, 2021 with the transfer of $33,863 of deposits. Management concluded that the acquisition represented a business combination, which was accounted for using the acquisition method, with the results of operations included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the March 12, 2021 transaction with ConnectOne, and reflects all adjustments made to the fair value of the opening balance sheet through March 31, 2022:

At March 31, 2022, the Company had 241 individual available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position with unrealized losses totaling $17,375 with an aggregate depreciation of 6.43% 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. 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; therefore, the Company did not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2022.

The amortized cost and fair value of available for sale debt securities at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, by contractual maturities, are presented below. Actual maturities of mortgage-backed securities may differ from contractual maturities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be called or repaid without any penalties. Because mortgage-backed securities are not due at a single maturity date, they are not included in the maturity categories in the following maturity summary:

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 TDRs. Loan modifications, which resulted in these loans being considered TDRs, are primarily in the form of rate concessions and extensions of maturity dates that are made specifically due to hardships experienced by the customer. The Company does not generally recognize interest income on a loan in an impaired status. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, three loans totaling $1,409 and $1,440, included in impaired loans, were identified as TDRs. There were no new TDRs in 2021 or the first three months of 2022. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all TDR loans were performing in accordance with their restructured terms. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no commitments to advance additional funds to borrowers under TDR loans.

The Company has transferred a portion of its originated commercial real estate loans to participating lenders. The amounts transferred have been accounted for as sales and are therefore not included in the Company’s accompanying statements of financial condition. The Company and participating lenders share ratably in any gains or losses that may result from a borrower’s lack of compliance with contractual terms of the loan. The Company continues to service the loans on behalf of the participating lenders and, as such, collects cash payments from the borrowers, remits payments to participating lenders and disburses required escrow funds to relevant parties. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company was servicing loans for participants aggregating $3,879 and $3,962, respectively.

Residential mortgage and consumer loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process totaled $790 and $935 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company services certain loans that it has sold without recourse to third parties. The aggregate balances of loans serviced for others were $315,695 and $314,953 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The balances of capitalized servicing rights, included in other assets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, were $2,641 and $2,633, respectively. Fair value exceeds carrying value, and thus, no impairment charges related to servicing rights were recognized during the period ended March 31, 2022 or the year ended December 31, 2021.

The following tables summarize the segments of the loan portfolio and the allowance for loan losses, segregated into the amount required for loans individually evaluated for impairment and the amount required for loans collectively evaluated for impairment and the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the periods then ended:

Core deposit intangibles represent the estimated fair value of acquired customer deposit relationships on the date of acquisition and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Purchased customer accounts primarily consist of records and files that contain information about investment holdings. The values assigned to customer lists and core deposit intangibles is based upon the application of the income approach. The intangibles are expected to have useful lives of approximately 13 years. The Company recognized $27 and $13 of amortization expense related to its intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

As of March 31, 2022, the future amortization expense for amortizable intangible assets for the respective years is as follows:

8.    Long-Term Debt and FHLB Stock

FHLB Borrowings and Stock

The Bank is a member of the FHLB. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Bank had access to a preapproved secured line of credit with the FHLB of $640,629 and $640,500, respectively. Borrowings under this line require collateralization through the pledge of specific loans and securities. At March 31, 2022 and

December 31, 2021, the Bank had pledged assets of $175,355 and $170,385, respectively.

The outstanding principal amounts and the related terms and rates at March 31, 2022 were as follows:

The Bank is required to maintain an investment in capital stock of the FHLB, as collateral, in an amount equal to a certain percentage of its outstanding debt. FHLB stock is considered restricted stock and is carried at cost. The Bank evaluates FHLB stock for impairment based on the ultimate recovery ability of the cost. No impairment was recognized at either March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

Subordinated Debt

In addition to the Bank, the Company has one other wholly-owned subsidiary, RSB Capital Trust I (the “Trust”). In 2005, the Trust issued $5,000 of pooled trust preferred securities in a private placement and issued 155 shares of common stock at $1 par value per share, to the Company. 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 were down-streamed to the Bank and are currently considered Tier 1 capital for purposes of determining the Bank’s capital ratios. 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, provides a full and unconditional guarantee of amounts on the capital securities. The subordinated debentures, which bear interest at three month LIBOR plus 2.00% (2.48% at March 31, 2022 and 2.16% at December 31, 2021) mature on May 23, 2035.

As it is anticipated that LIBOR will be discontinued after 2022, the Company is reviewing the agreements for the above debt to determine alternative reference rates and does not anticipate there will be a significant financial statement impact.

Other Borrowings

The Bank has an unsecured, uncommitted $10,000 line of credit with Zions Bank. There were no advances outstanding under this line of credit at either March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

9.  Employee Benefits

Pension Plan

The Bank maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees 21 years of age or older who had completed at least one year of service as of June 30, 2012, the effective date on which the Board of Directors of the Bank voted to freeze the defined benefit plan.

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 March 31, 2022, the investment funds included seven equity funds and three fixed income bond funds, 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.

The Company did not make a contribution to the plan in the first three months of 2022 or 2021.

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 is payable annually over 20 years at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate, reset annually on January 1st (3.25% at January 1, 2021). Loan payments are 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 March 31, 2022 was $3,917. 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:

Share-Based Compensation Plan

On May 26, 2020, stockholders of the Company approved the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”).  The  EIP authorizes the issuance or delivery to participants of up to 763,743 shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock pursuant to grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units.  Of this number, the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued under the EIP pursuant to the exercise of stock options is 545,531 shares, and the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued as restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 218,212 shares.  These amounts represent 4.90% and 1.96%, respectively, of the number of shares of common stock issued in the stock offering of Rhinebeck Bancorp, including the shares issued to Rhinebeck Bancorp, MHC.

Pursuant to terms of the EIP, on August 25, 2020, the Board of Directors granted restricted stock and stock options to employees and directors. All of the awards vest annually over a three-year period from the date of the grant and the term of each option is ten years. As of March 31, 2022, there were 102,146 stock options and 49,110 restricted stock awards that remain available for future grants.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

The fair value of each option granted under the EIP is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a peer group of comparable SEC-reporting bank holding companies. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur.

A summary of options under the 2020 EIP as of March 31, 2022 is presented below:

At March 31, 2022, the aggregate intrinsic value of the shares outstanding, which fluctuates based on changes in the fair market value of the Company’s stock, was $1,552. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (i.e., the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of period and the weighted-average exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, there was $348 of unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested stock options granted under the 2020 EIP. The cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining period of 1.42 years.

10.  Leases

As of March 31, 2022, the Company leases real estate for eight branch offices and two administrative offices under various lease agreements. All of our leases are classified as operating leases.

The calculated amount of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company’s leases have maturities which range from 2024 to 2041, some of which include lessee options to extend the lease term. If the Company considers the exercising of a renewal option to be reasonably certain, the Company will include the extended term in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. The weighted average remaining life of the lease terms for these leases was 11.8 years and 12.0 years as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate, the rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized basis for a similar term, at the lease commencement date. The Company utilized a weighted average discount rate of 2.51% in determining the lease liability as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, total operating lease costs were $195 and $155 and were included in occupancy and other expense. Deferred rent liability was $136 and $145 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The right-of-use asset, included in other assets, was $7,677 and $7,839 and the corresponding lease liability, included in accrued expenses and other liabilities, was $7,677 and $7,839 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Future minimum payments for operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more as of March 31, 2022 were as follows:

11.  Commitments and Contingencies and Derivatives

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.

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.

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

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.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company enters into interest rate swaps that allow commercial loan customers to effectively convert a variable-rate loan agreement to a fixed-rate loan agreement. Under these agreements, the Company simultaneously enters into a variable-rate loan and interest rate swap agreements with a customer. The Company then enters into a corresponding and offsetting swap agreement with a third party to hedge its exposure created by the customer agreements. The interest rate swaps with both the customers and third parties are not designated as hedges under FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and are marked to market through earnings. The fair values of the swaps are recorded as both an asset and a liability, in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in equal amounts for these transactions.  The accrued interest receivable and payable of $29 and $12 related to our swaps is recorded in other assets and other liabilities as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

12.  Regulatory Matters

The Bank is 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 Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items, as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require 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 March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, that 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.

13.  Fair Value

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

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. Level 3 securities include securities for which significant unobservable inputs are utilized. Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

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 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.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through foreclosure and is carried at 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.

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. Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value and are included in other assets on the consolidated statements of financial condition.

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

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.

Mortgagors’ escrow account

The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on deposited escrow accounts of similarly expected maturities.

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.

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.

Loan level interest rate Swaps

The fair value is based on settlement values adjusted for credit risks associated with the counterparties and the Company and observable market interest rate curves.

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 2022 and 2021 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.

15.  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represent income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner similar to that of basic earnings per share except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of incremental shares (computed using the treasury method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (such as options) were issued during the period. Unearned ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.

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 March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 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:

statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;

statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;

statements regarding the quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and

estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits.

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, including as a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic;

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;

36

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, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums and capital requirements;

negative financial impact from unfavorable regulatory penalties and/or settlement;

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;

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 prospects of issuers of securities that we own.

Further, given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business. As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations:

demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income;
the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us;
loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased charges and reduced income;
collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase;
our allowance for loan losses may increase if borrowers experience financial difficulties, which will adversely affect our net income;
our investment advisory fees may decline with continuing market turmoil;

37

our cyber security risks are increased as the result of an increase in the number of employees working remotely;
FDIC premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs; and
we may experience loss or unavailability of employees, executive officers or directors.

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

For a detailed disclosure regarding the Company’s critical accounting policies, see Part 2, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operationsin the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of March 31, 2022, the critical accounting policies of the Company have not changed materially from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021

Total Assets. Total assets were $1.28 billion at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, with a small  increase of $318,000. The increase was primarily related to increases in loans receivable and deferred tax assets, offset by decreases in cash and due from banks and available for sale securities.

Cash and Due from Banks. Cash and due from banks decreased $4.7 million, or 6.6%, to $67.4 million at March 31, 2022 from $72.1 million at December 31, 2021 primarily due to an decrease in deposits held at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as excess funds were used to purchase securities.

Investment Securities Available for Sale. Investment securities available for sale decreased $3.2 million, or 1.2%, to $277.0 million at March 31, 2022 from $280.3 million at December 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to calls and maturities of $16.5 million and an increase of $13.8 million in unrealized market losses, partially offset by $27.2 million in purchases.

Net Loans. Total net loans receivable were $860.2 million at March 31, 2022, an increase of $5.2 million, or 0.6%, as compared to $855.0 million at December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increases of $22.5 million, or 5.9%, in indirect automobile loans and $3.4 million, or 1.4%, in non-residential commercial real estate loans, while commercial loans and multi-family loans decreased $13.7 million and $7.0 million, respectively.

Non-accrual loans and non-performing assets increased $47,000, or 0.7%, to $6.7 million at March 31, 2022. We had no other real estate owned in at the end of either period.

Total Liabilities. Total liabilities increased $9.0 million, or 0.8%, to $1.16 billion at March 31, 2022, primarily due to an increase in deposits of $10.6 million and an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $1.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in advances from the FHLB of $2.1 million and a decrease in mortgagors’ escrow accounts of $1.4 million.

Deposits. Deposits increased $10.6 million, or 1.0%, to $1.11 billion at March 31, 2022. Interest bearing accounts grew $20.8 million, or 2.6%, to $808.0 million while non-interest bearing balances decreased $10.2 million, or 3.2%, finishing the first three months of 2022 at $304.6 million. Of the interest bearing accounts, transaction accounts including NOW, savings and money market accounts increased $35.2 million, which was partially offset by a decrease in time

38

deposits of $14.4 million. The continued growth in the deposits was primarily due to the addition of four branches during 2021.

Borrowed Funds. Advances from the FHLB decreased $2.1 million, or 11.7%, from $18.0 million at December 31, 2021 to $15.9 million at March 31, 2022, as the Company was able to utilize increased deposits to fund asset growth.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders' equity decreased $8.7 million to $117.3 million at March 31, 2022, primarily due to an increase in the net unrealized loss on available for sale securities of $10.9 million partially offset by $2.1 million in net income. At March 31, 2022, the Company’s book value per share was $10.38 and the Company’s ratio of stockholders’ equity-to-total assets was 9.15%. Unearned common stock held by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan was $3.7 million at March 31, 2022.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021

Net Income. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased $1.3 million, or 38.2%, to $2.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Interest and dividend income decreased $78,000, or 0.7%, interest expense decreased $410,000, or 32.3%, the provision for loan losses increased $290,000, non-interest income decreased $530,000, or 23.7%, while other expenses and taxes increased $780,000, or 8.9%, between comparable quarters.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $332,000, or 3.4%, to $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $9.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities improved 0.9% to 145.18% while our net interest margin decreased by 23 basis points to 3.42% when comparing the first quarter of 2022 to the same period in 2021.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased $78,000, or 0.7%, to $11.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $11.1 million for the comparable 2021 period. An increase in interest and dividends on securities was offset by a decrease in interest and fees on loans. The average yield decreased by 41 basis points to 3.71%, which was offset by an increase in the average balances of interest-earning assets of $111.3 million, or 10.2%, to $1.20 billion.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $410,000, or 32.3%, from $1.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, to $860,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Interest rates on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 26 basis points to an average of 0.42% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, which was offset by an increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities of $70.1 million, or 9.3%, to $826.1 million.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses increased by $290,000, from a credit to the provision of $69,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 to an expense of $221,000 for the current quarter. The credit for the first quarter of 2021 was primarily attributable to a decline in loan balances, exclusive of PPP loans, a reduction in specific allocations to the allowance for loan losses and a general improvement in the economic conditions as our customers showed  signs of recovering from the pandemic. The expense in the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to growth in our indirect automobile and non-residential commercial real estate loan balances and changes to the qualitative factors impacting our multi-family real estate loan portfolio.

Net charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 totaled $80,000 compared to $303,000 for the comparable period in 2021.  The decrease was primarily due to a $143,000 recovery of a residential mortgage loan, pricing gains on the sales of repossessed vehicles as used car prices have risen significantly, and an improvement in the overall economic environment.

39

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income totaled $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $530,000, or 23.7%, from the comparable period in the prior year, due primarily to a decrease in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans as a result of a decline in loan volume when compared to the first quarter in 2021 due to the higher interest rate environment and the lack of available housing inventory in our market area. For the quarter  ended March 31, 2022, the gain on sales of mortgage loans decreased $659,000, or 62.2%, as the Company sold $10.9 million of residential mortgage loans in the first quarter of 2022 as compared to $24.7 million in the first quarter of 2021. Gains related to the collection of life insurance proceeds of $195,000 and on the disposal of premises and equipment of $17,000, both of which only occurred in the first quarter of 2021, also contributed to the relative decrease in non-interest income.  These decreases were partially offset by an increase in investment advisory income of $123,000, or 56.7%, and an increase in service charges on deposit accounts, which increased $97,000, or 15.9%, as transaction volume increased and the ability to charge fees increased.

Non-Interest Expense. For the first quarter of 2022, non-interest expense totaled $9.1 million, an increase of $1.2 million, or 14.5%, over the comparable 2021 period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salaries and benefits of $927,000, or 20.2%, due to the four new branches opened in 2021 as well as annual merit increases, production incentives and employee benefit increases. Also, the competitive pressures of the local job market has contributed to general increases in wages. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, occupancy expenses increased $144,000, or 15.1%, as a result of the additional rent, depreciation and other expenses related to the branch expansion. The addition of branches was also primarily responsible for increased data processing costs of $91,000 and increased marketing fees of $29,000. These increases were partially offset by decreased professional fees of $14,000 and a decrease in other non-interest expenses of $49,000, or 3.7%.

Income Taxes. Income taxes decreased by $372,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the comparable period in 2021 as our income before income taxes decreased. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 17.9% compared to 19.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

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 (in thousands).

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 maintains a management-level Asset/Liability Management Committee (the “ALCO”), which takes primary responsibility for reviewing the Company’s 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 from various modeling scenarios. This committee also implements any changes in strategies and reviews the performance of any specific asset/liability management actions that have been implemented.

We 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.

42

Net Economic Value Simulation. We analyze the Bank’s 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 the EVE under scenarios where interest rates increase 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates and where interest rates decrease 100 basis points from current market rates.

The following table presents the estimated changes in the Bank’s EVE that would result from changes in market interest rates at March 31, 2022 (dollars in thousands).

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 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 Management

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, 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.

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 $7.5 million and $2.6 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, 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 $19.4 million and $35.7 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, principally reflecting our investment security and loan activities in the respective periods.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related notes of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with 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.
