NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We, Summit Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiaries, prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual year end financial statements.  In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  The consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with our 2018 audited financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K. 

NOTE 2.  SIGNIFICANT NEW AUTHORITATIVE ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

Recently Adopted
We adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and its related amendments on its required effective date of January 1, 2019 utilizing the modified retrospective approach. Since there was no net income impact upon adoption of the new guidance, a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings was not deemed necessary. The impact was insignificant to our consolidated financial position. Our current minimum commitments under long-term operating leases are disclosed in Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies.
We adopted ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities on its required effective date of January 1, 2019. This guidance shortens the amortization period for premiums on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date (with an explicit, noncontingent call feature that is callable at a fixed price and on a preset date), rather than contractual maturity date as currently required under GAAP. The ASU does not impact instruments without preset call dates such as mortgage-backed securities. The adoption of the new pronouncement did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Pending Adoption

During June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU, as amended, among other things, requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. This ASU, as amended, is effective for SEC filers which are not Smaller Reporting Companies for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We will adopt the guidance in the first quarter of 2020 with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. In this regard, we have a cross-functional implementation team comprised of personnel from risk management, operations and information technology, loan administration and finance and engaged a third-party vendor to assist us. The team is working through the late stages of its implementation plan, including refining and validating the third-party vendor’s model solution as well as analyzing qualitative factors which may modify the model’s quantitative outputs. While we are currently unable to estimate the approximate impact of the adoption of this ASU, as amended, it is expected to materially increase our allowance for loan losses. The ultimate impact of adoption will be significantly influenced by the loan portfolio's composition and credit quality, as well as the prevailing economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments modify the disclosure requirements in Topic 820 to add disclosures regarding changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty. Certain disclosure

Table of Contents
11


requirements in Topic 820 are also removed or modified. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Certain of the amendments are to be applied prospectively while others are to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2018-13 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We held 61 available for sale securities having an unrealized loss at September 30, 2019.  We do not intend to sell these securities, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases.  We believe that this decline in value is primarily attributable to the lack of market liquidity and to changes in market interest rates and is not due to credit quality.  Accordingly, no other-than-temporary impairment charge to earnings is warranted at this time.

Provided below is a summary of securities available for sale which were in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Impaired loans:  Impaired loans include the following:

Loans which we risk-rate (loan relationships having aggregate balances in excess of $2.5 million, or loans exceeding $500,000 and exhibiting credit weakness) through our normal loan review procedures and which, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement.   Risk-rated loans with insignificant delays or insignificant short falls in the amount of payments expected to be collected are not considered to be impaired.

Loans that have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring.


Table of Contents
21


Both commercial and consumer loans are deemed impaired upon being contractually modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Troubled debt restructurings typically result from our loss mitigation activities and occur when we grant a concession to a borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty in order to minimize our economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral.  Once restructured, a loan is generally considered impaired until its maturity, regardless of whether the borrower performs under the modified terms.  Although such a loan may be returned to accrual status if the criteria set forth in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are met, the loan would continue to be evaluated for an asset-specific allowance for loan losses and we would continue to report the loan in the impaired loan table below.

Included in impaired loans are TDRs of $25.9 million, of which $23.1 million were current with respect to restructured contractual payments at September 30, 2019, and $27 million, of which $26.6 million were current with respect to restructured contractual payments at December 31, 2018.  There were no commitments to lend additional funds under these restructurings at either balance sheet date.

The following tables present by class the TDRs that were restructured during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 . Generally, the modifications were extensions of term, modifying the payment terms from principal and interest to interest only for an extended period, or reduction in interest rate.  All TDRs are evaluated individually for allowance for loan loss purposes.

NOTE 8.  GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In accordance with ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, during third quarter 2019, we performed the qualitative assessment of goodwill and determined that the fair value was more likely than not greater than its carrying value.  In performing the qualitative assessment, we considered certain events and circumstances such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and cost factors when

Long-term borrowings:  Our long-term borrowings of $722,000 and $735,000 at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, consisted of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). These FHLB advances are collateralized primarily by similar amounts of residential mortgage loans, certain commercial loans, mortgage backed securities and securities of U. S. Government agencies and corporations.

Table of Contents

Our long term FHLB borrowings bear both fixed and variable rates and mature in varying amounts through the year 2026.

The average interest rate paid on long-term borrowings for the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 was 5.34% compared to 4.24% for the first nine months of 2018.

Subordinated debentures owed to unconsolidated subsidiary trusts:  We have three statutory business trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing mandatorily redeemable securities (the “capital securities”) for which we are obligated to third party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the capital securities in our junior subordinated debentures (the “debentures”).  The debentures held by the trusts are their sole assets.  Our subordinated debentures totaled $19.6 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The capital securities held by SFG Capital Trust I, SFG Capital Trust II, and SFG Capital Trust III qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines.  In accordance with these Guidelines, trust preferred securities generally are limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill.  The amount of trust preferred securities and certain other elements in excess of the limit can be included in Tier 2 capital.

NOTE 11.  SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Under the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2014 LTIP”), SARs have generally been granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of Summit's common stock on the grant date. We periodically grant employee stock options to individual employees. During first quarter 2019, we granted 109,819 SARs that become exercisable ratably over five years (20% per year) and expire ten years after the grant date and granted 28,306 SARS that become exercisable ratably over seven years (14.29% per year) and expire ten years after the grant date.

The fair value of our employee stock options and SARs granted under the Plans is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, changes to which can materially affect the fair value estimate. Additionally, there may be other factors that would otherwise have a significant effect on the value of employee stock options and SARs granted but are not considered by the model. Because our employee stock options and SARs have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options and SARs at the time of grant. The assumptions used to value SARs granted during 2019 were as follows:
 
5-year vesting SARs
7-year vesting SARs
Risk-free interest rate

We recognize compensation expense based on the estimated number of stock awards expected to actually vest, exclusive of the awards expected to be forfeited.  During the first nine months of 2019 and 2018, our share-based compensation expense was $430,000 and $292,000 and the related deferred tax benefits were approximately $103,000 and $70,000.

NOTE 12.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are a party to certain financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers.  These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial position.  The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement that we have in this class of financial instruments.

Many of our lending relationships contain both funded and unfunded elements.  The funded portion is reflected on our balance sheet.  The unfunded portion of these commitments is not recorded on our balance sheet until a draw is made under the loan facility.  Since many of the commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flow requirements.


Table of Contents
33


A summary of the total unfunded, or off-balance sheet, credit extension commitments follows:

Total
 
$
393,312


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.  We evaluate each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.  The amount of collateral obtained, if we deem necessary upon extension of credit, is based on our credit evaluation.  Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or real estate.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.  Standby letters of credit generally are contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party.

Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments.

Operating leases

We occupy certain facilities under long-term operating leases.  The aggregate minimum annual rental commitments under those leases total approximately $62,000 in 2019 and $124,000 in 2020.  Total net rent expense included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements was $106,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and $222,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Litigation

We are not a party to litigation except for matters that arise in the normal course of business.  While it is impossible to ascertain the ultimate resolution or range of financial liability if any, with respect to these contingent matters, in the opinion of management, the outcome of these matters will not have a significant adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 13.  REGULATORY MATTERS

Our bank subsidiary, Summit Community Bank, Inc. (“Summit Community”), is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the banking regulatory agencies. Under the capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Summit Community must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  Our bank subsidiary’s capital amounts and classifications 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 Summit Community to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Common Equity Tier 1("CET1"), Total capital 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).  We believe, as of September 30, 2019, that our bank subsidiary met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

The most recent notifications from the banking regulatory agencies categorized Summit Community as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  To be categorized as well capitalized, Summit Community must maintain minimum CET1, Total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below.
In December 2018, the federal bank regulatory agencies approved a final rule modifying their regulatory capital rules to provide an option to phase-in over a period of three years the day-one regulatory capital effects of the implementation of ASU

No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. We intend to elect to this optional phase-in period upon adoption of the ASU effective January 1, 2020. 
The following tables present Summit's, as well as Summit Community's, actual and required minimum regulatory capital amounts and ratios as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Capital levels required to be considered well capitalized are based upon prompt corrective action regulations, as amended.

Loan commitments:  ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires that commitments to make mortgage loans should be accounted for as derivatives if the loans are to be held for sale, because the commitment represents a written option and accordingly is recorded at the fair value of the option liability.

NOTE 15. ACQUISITIONS

Peoples Bankshares, Inc. Acquisition

On January 1, 2019, Summit Community Bank, Inc. ("SCB"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit, acquired 100% of the ownership of Peoples Bankshares, Inc. ("PBI") and its subsidiary First Peoples Bank, headquartered in Mullens, West Virginia.

Table of Contents
36


With this transaction, Summit further expands its footprint in Wyoming and Raleigh Counties of West Virginia. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 24, 2018, PBI's shareholders received cash in the amount of $47.00 per share or 1.7193 shares of Summit common stock, or a combination of cash and Summit stock, subject to proration to result in approximately 50% cash and 50% stock consideration in the aggregate. Total stock consideration was $9.0 million or 465,931 shares of Summit common stock and cash consideration was $12.7 million. PBI's assets and liabilities approximated $133 million and $113 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018.

We accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of PBI were recorded at their respective acquisition date fair values. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, particularly related to the loan portfolio, is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate the estimated fair values. The fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the acquisition date as additional information relative to the acquisition date fair values becomes available. We recognized goodwill of $1.85 million in connection with the acquisition (not deductible for income tax purposes), which is not amortized for financial reporting purposes, but is subject to annual impairment testing. The core deposit intangible represents the value of long-term deposit relationships acquired in this transaction and will be amortized over an estimated weighted average life of 15 years using an accelerated method which approximates the estimated run-off of the acquired deposits. The following table details the total consideration paid on January 1, 2019 in connection with the acquisition of PBI, the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the resulting preliminary goodwill.

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above.
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount of these assets approximates their fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets, with the exception of certificates of deposits held at other banks, which were adjusted to fair value based upon current interest rates.


Table of Contents
37


Securities: Fair values for securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value estimates are based on observable inputs including quoted market prices for similar instruments, quoted market prices that are not in an active market or other inputs that are observable in the market.

Loans: Fair values for loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, collectibility, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, amortization status and current market rates. Loans were grouped together according to similar characteristics and were treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns, if any.

Premises and equipment: The fair value of PBI's real property was determined based upon appraisals by licensed appraisers. The fair value of tangible personal property, which is not material, was assumed to equal the carrying value by PBI.

Core deposit intangible: This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships with deposit customers. The fair value was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, reserve requirements and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits.

Deposits: The fair values of the demand and savings deposits by definition equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to the contractual interest rates on such time deposits.

Loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition without the carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. Purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loans are those for which there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at the date of acquisition that we will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. When determining fair value, PCI loans are identified as of the date of acquisition based upon evidence of credit quality such as internal risk grades and past due and nonaccrual status. The difference between contractually required payments of principal and interest at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is accounted for as a"nonaccretable difference," and is available to absorb future credit losses on those loans. For purposes of determining the nonaccretable difference, no prepayments are generally assumed in determining contractually required payments of principal and interest or cash flows expected to be collected. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in a provision for loan losses. Subsequent significant increases in cash flows may result in a reversal of the provision for loan losses to the extent of prior charges, or a transfer from nonaccretable difference to accretable yield. Further, any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is accounted for as accretable yield and is recognized as interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows. No acquired PBI loans were designated as PCI loans.

Loans not designated PCI loans as of the acquisition date are designated purchased performing loans. We account for purchased performing loans using the contractual cash flows method of recognizing discount accretion based on the acquired loans’ contractual cash flows. Purchased performing loans are recorded at fair value, including a credit discount. The fair value discount is accreted as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans. There is no allowance for loan losses established at the acquisition date for purchased performing loans. A provision for loan losses is recorded for any deterioration in these loans subsequent to the acquisition.

The following presents the financial effects of adjustments recognized in the statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 related to business combinations that occurred during 2016, 2017 and 2019.

Pending Cornerstone Acquisition

On September 17, 2019, we entered into a Definitive Merger Agreement with Cornerstone Financial Services, Inc. ("Cornerstone"). Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Summit will acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Cornerstone in exchange for cash in the amount of $5,700 per share or 228 shares of Summit common stock. Cornerstone shareholders will have a right to receive cash, Summit’s common stock or a combination of cash and Summit common stock, subject to proration to result in approximately 50% cash and 50% stock consideration in the aggregate. Total merger consideration received by Cornerstone shareholders is subject to an adjustment if Cornerstone's adjusted shareholders’ equity as of the effective date of the merger deviates from the range mutually determined by the parties. Cornerstone's assets approximated $192 million at September 30, 2019.
We anticipate the acquisition will close in the first quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval and approval of Cornerstone's shareholders. Following the consummation of the merger, Cornerstone's wholly-owned subsidiary Cornerstone Bank, Inc. will be consolidated with Summit's subsidiary, Summit Community Bank, Inc.

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

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion and analysis focuses on significant changes in our financial condition and results of operations of Summit Financial Group, Inc. (“Company” or “Summit”) and its operating subsidiary, Summit Community Bank (“Summit Community”), for the periods indicated.   This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our 2018 audited financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 indicates that the disclosure of forward-looking information is desirable for investors and encourages such disclosure by providing a safe harbor for forward-looking statements by us.  Our following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainty.  In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, we note that a variety of factors could cause our actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in those forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

On January 1, 2019, we acquired Peoples Bankshares, Inc. ("PBI") and its subsidiary, First Peoples Bank, Inc., headquartered in Mullens, West Virginia. PBI's results are included in our financial statements from the acquisition date forward, impacting comparisons to the prior-year first quarter period. On May 1, 2019, we sold our insurance agency, Summit Insurance Services, LLC ("SIS"). Accordingly, their results are included in our financial statements only until date of sale, impacting comparisons to the prior-year three and nine months ended September 30 and the linked quarter.

Our primary source of income is net interest income from loans and deposits.  Business volumes tend to be influenced by the overall economic factors including market interest rates, business spending, and consumer confidence, as well as competitive conditions within the marketplace.

Primarily due to our PBI acquisition and organic loan growth, average interest earning assets increased by 6.89% for the first nine months in 2019 compared to the same period of 2018 while our net interest earnings on a tax equivalent basis increased 10.01%.  Our tax equivalent net interest margin increased 11 basis points as our yield on interest earning assets increased 30 basis points while our cost of interest bearing funds increased 26 basis points.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general practices within the financial services industry.  Application of these principles requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes.  These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments.  Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.

Our most significant accounting policies are presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements of our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  These policies, along with the other disclosures presented in the financial statement notes and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined.

Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, we have identified the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of goodwill, fair value measurements and accounting for acquired loans to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments and as such could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to Critical Accounting Policies section in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2018 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in our application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2018.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Earnings Summary

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased to $23.7 million or $1.88 per diluted share from $20.6 million or $1.66 per diluted share for the same period of 2018. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $8.1 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, compared to $6.9 million, or $0.55 per diluted share for the same period of 2018. The increased earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were primarily attributable to increased net interest income, larger gains on sales of securities, a $1.9 million pre-tax gain on sale of our insurance agency, SIS, in second quarter while being negatively impacted by generally higher operating expenses due to the PBI acquisition, larger writedowns on foreclosed properties and increased merger-related expenses. The increased earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were primarily attributable to increased net interest income, higher realized securities gains and fewer write-downs on foreclosed properties while being negatively impacted by generally higher operating expenses due to the PBI acquisition and fewer insurance commissions due to the sale of our insurance agency, SIS in second quarter. Returns on average equity and assets for the first nine months of 2019 were 13.48% and 1.40%, respectively, compared with 13.28% and 1.30% for the same period of 2018.

PBI’s results of operations are included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition, and therefore our 2019 results reflect increased levels of average balances, income and expense as compared to the same periods of 2018 results. At consummation (prior to fair value acquisition adjustments), PBI had total assets of $133.1 million, net loans of $42.4 million, and deposits of $112.1 million. Also impacting comparability of results is the sale of SIS. Their results are included in our financial statements only until date of sale, impacting comparisons to the prior-year three and nine months ended September 30 and the linked quarter, however, historically SIS's results of operations accounted for less than $0.01 per share of the company's quarterly earnings.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the principal component of our earnings and represents the difference between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds.  Fluctuations in interest rates as well as changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities can materially impact net interest income.

Q3 2019 compared to Q2 2019

For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, our net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis increased $107,000 to $19.63 million compared to $19.52 million for the quarter end June 30, 2019. Our taxable-equivalent earnings on interest earning assets increased $317,000, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities increased $210,000 (see Tables I and II).

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 average interest earning assets increased to $2.15 billion compared to $2.11 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2019, while average interest bearing liabilities increased to $1.79 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $1.76 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, our net interest margin decreased to 3.63%, compared to 3.72% for the linked quarter, as the yields on earning assets decreased 10 basis points, while the cost of our interest bearing funds decreased by 1 basis point. At acquisition, PBI's deposit costs were significantly lower than Summit's cost of deposits, thus substantially offsetting the increase in market rates during 2019.

Excluding the impact of accretion and amortization of fair value acquisition accounting adjustments related to the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities acquired by merger, Summit's net interest margin was 3.59% and 3.62% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019.

Q3 2019 compared to Q3 2018

For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, our net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis increased $2.07 million to $19.63 million compared to $17.55 million for the quarter end September 30, 2018. Our taxable-equivalent earnings on interest earning assets increased $3.31 million, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities increased $1.24 million (see Tables I and II).

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 average interest earning assets increased 8.9% to $2.15 billion compared to $1.97 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2018, while average interest bearing liabilities increased 7.7% from $1.67 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $1.79 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, our net interest margin increased to 3.63%, compared to 3.53% for the same period of 2018, as the yields on earning assets increased 21 basis points, while the cost of our interest bearing funds increased by 16 basis points.

Excluding the impact of accretion and amortization of fair value acquisition accounting adjustments related to the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities acquired by merger, Summit's net interest margin was 3.51% for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Noninterest Income

On May 1, 2019, we sold our insurance agency, Summit Insurance Services, LLC which resulted in a pre-tax gain of $1.91 million. Total noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased 11.8% compared to same period in 2018 principally due to the realized gain on sale of SIS, which was partially offset by lower insurance commissions due to the sale of SIS, and higher realized securities gains. On a quarterly basis, total noninterest income was 10.7% lower in 2019 compared to 2018 due to lower insurance commissions due to the sale of SIS which more than offset the increase in realized securities gains. Further detail regarding noninterest income is reflected in the following table.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense increased 3.6% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2018 and increased 12.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018 with higher foreclosed properties expense, higher salaries, commissions, and employee benefits and increased deferred director compensation plan expenses having the largest negative impacts and fewer FDIC premiums during 2019 having the largest positive impact.  Table VI below shows the breakdown of the changes.

Salaries, commissions, and employee benefits: The increases in these expenses in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods of 2018 are primarily due to an increase in number of employees, resulting from the PBI acquisition, and general merit raises.

Equipment: The increase in equipment expense is primarily increased depreciation and amortization related to various technological upgrades, both hardware and software, made during the past two years and also the PBI acquisition.

FDIC premiums: The decrease in FDIC premiums for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 is due to the FDIC's Small Bank Assessment Credits resulting from the reserve ratio meeting the required 1.38 percent threshold. We expect the decreased assessments to continue through the end of 2019.

Foreclosed properties expense, net of losses: During second quarter 2019, we recorded higher writedowns of foreclosed properties to their fair value with the goal of selling such properties more rapidly.

Merger-related expenses: Merger-related expenses during third quarter 2019 are related to the pending Cornerstone acquisition, while the $519,000 incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes both Cornerstone and Peoples merger-related expenses.

Other: The increase in other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is largely due to a $560,000 increase in deferred director compensation plan expenses. Under the plan, the directors optionally defer their director fees into a "phantom" investment plan whereby the company recognizes expense or benefit relative to the phantom returns or losses of such investments. As result of the stock market’s exceptionally robust performance during Q1 2019, we recognized significantly greater quarterly deferred director compensation expense thus far in 2019 than we have ever recognized previously.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 totaled $1.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 our income tax expense totaled $5.29 million and $5.20 million, respectively. Our effective tax rate (income tax expense as a percentage of income before

Table of Contents

taxes) for the quarters ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was 18.5% and 19.5%, respectively and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 was 18.2% and 20.1%. Refer to Note 17 of the accompanying financial statements for further information regarding our income taxes.

Credit Experience

For purposes of this discussion, nonperforming assets include foreclosed properties, other repossessed assets, and nonperforming loans, which is comprised of loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest and nonaccrual loans. Performing TDRs are excluded from nonperforming loans.

The provision for loan losses represents charges to earnings necessary to maintain an adequate allowance for probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Our determination of the appropriate level of the allowance is based on an ongoing analysis of credit quality and loss potential in the loan portfolio, change in the composition and risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, and the anticipated influence of national and local economic conditions.  The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed quarterly and adjustments are made as considered necessary.

We recorded $1,050,000 and $1,750,000 provisions for loan losses for the first nine months of 2019 and 2018. The decrease is primarily due to more favorable asset quality indicators.

As illustrated in Table VII below, our non-performing assets have decreased since year end 2018.

Refer to Note 6 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding our past due loans, impaired loans, nonaccrual loans, and troubled debt restructurings and to Note 8 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements of our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of the methodology we employ on a quarterly basis to evaluate the overall adequacy of our allowance for loan losses.

Substantially all of our nonperforming loans are secured by real estate. The majority of these loans were underwritten in accordance with our loan-to-value policy guidelines which range from 70-85% at the time of origination. The fair values of the underlying collateral value or the discounted cash flows remain in excess of the recorded investment in many of our nonperforming loans and therefore, no specific reserve allocation is required.

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our allowance for loan losses totaled $12.9 million, or 0.70% of total loans and $13.0 million, or 0.77% of total loans. The allowance for loan losses is considered adequate to cover our current estimate of probable credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio.

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 we had approximately $21.0 million and $21.4 million in foreclosed properties which were obtained as the result of foreclosure proceedings.  Although foreclosed property is recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell, the prices ultimately realized upon their sale may or may not result in us recognizing additional gains or losses.

The following is a discussion of the significant changes in our financial position during the first nine months of 2019:

Cash and cash equivalents: Net reduction of $40.2 million is primarily attributable to repayments of short-term Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances and the cash consideration of $12.7 million paid in conjunction with the PBI acquisition.

Securities available for sale: The net decrease of $82.9 million in securities available for sale is principally a result of sales of the acquired PBI securities portfolio and the sales of a portion of our tax-exempt municipals securities, whose proceeds were used to pay down short-term FHLB advances and fund loan growth.

Loans: Mortgage warehouse lines of credit have grown $105.9 million thus far in 2019 as we expanded our existing line participations and established several new participations in light of strong mortgage refinance and home purchase activity nationally. Excluding mortgage warehouse lines of credit and PBI loans acquired on January 1, 2019, organic loan growth has been $9.6 million during the first nine months of 2019, as the construction and development portfolio and commercial portfolio grew approximately $32 million and $4 million, respectively, while commercial real estate and residential real estate portfolios declined approximately $15 million and $12 million, respectively.

Deposits: During the first nine months of 2019, interest bearing checking deposits grew $60.1 million, Direct CDs grew $5.4 million, brokered CDs increased $6.9 million, and retail CDs increased $25.2 million while noninterest bearing checking decreased $6.5 million and saving deposits decreased $9.4 million.


Table of Contents
52


Short-term borrowings: The net decrease in short-term borrowings was attributable to repayments of short-term FHLB advances primarily using cash acquired in conjunction with PBI acquisition, proceeds from sales of securities, and increased deposits.

Shareholders' equity: Changes in shareholders' equity are a result of net income, other comprehensive income and dividends.

Refer to Notes 5, 6, 9, and 10 of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information with regard to changes in the composition of our securities, loans, deposits and borrowings between September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity reflects our ability to ensure the availability of adequate funds to meet loan commitments and deposit withdrawals, as well as provide for other transactional requirements.  Liquidity is provided primarily by funds invested in cash and due from banks (net of float and reserves), Federal funds sold, non-pledged securities, and available lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, which totaled approximately $960 million or 41.32% of total consolidated assets at September 30, 2019.

Our liquidity strategy is to fund loan growth with deposits and other borrowed funds while maintaining an adequate level of short- and medium-term investments to meet normal daily loan and deposit activity.  As a member of the FHLB, we have access to approximately $811 million.  As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, these advances totaled approximately $207 million and $304 million, respectively.  At September 30, 2019, we had additional borrowing capacity of $604 million through FHLB programs.  We have established a line with the Federal Reserve Bank to be used as a contingency liquidity vehicle.  The amount available on this line at September 30, 2019 was approximately $151 million, which is secured by a pledge of certain consumer and our commercial and industrial loan portfolios.  We have a $6 million unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank.  Also, we classify all of our securities as available for sale to enable us to liquidate them if the need arises.
 
Liquidity risk represents the risk of loss due to the possibility that funds may not be available to satisfy current or future commitments based on external market issues, customer or creditor perception of financial strength, and events unrelated to Summit such as war, terrorism, or financial institution market specific issues.  The Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), comprised of members of senior management and certain members of the Board of Directors, oversees our liquidity risk management process.   The ALCO develops and recommends policies and limits governing our liquidity to the Board of
Directors for approval with the objective of ensuring that we can obtain cost-effective funding to meet current and future obligations, as well as maintain sufficient levels of on-hand liquidity, under both normal and “stressed” circumstances.
 
We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that day-to-day as well as anticipated funding needs are met.  We are not aware of any trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that have resulted in or are reasonably likely to result in a material change to our liquidity.

One of our continuous goals is maintenance of a strong capital position.  Through management of our capital resources, we seek to provide an attractive financial return to our shareholders while retaining sufficient capital to support future growth.  Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2019 totaled $242.4 million compared to $219.8 million at December 31, 2018.

Refer to Note 13 of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding regulatory restrictions on our capital as well as our subsidiaries’ capital.

LIBOR AND OTHER BENCHMARK RATES

Following the announcement by the U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority in July 2017 that it will no longer persuade or require banks to submit rates for the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) after 2021, central banks and regulators around the world have commissioned working groups to find suitable replacements for Interbank Offered Rates ("IBOR") and other benchmark rates and to implement financial benchmark reforms more generally. These actions have resulted in uncertainty regarding the use of alternative reference rates ("ARRs") and could cause disruptions in a variety of markets. We will continue to monitor developments related to ARRs, however at this time, we do not anticipate any material adverse impact to our business operation or financial results during the period of transition from IBORs to ARRs.

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices.  Interest rate risk is our primary market risk and results from timing differences in the repricing of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, changes in relationships between rate indices and the potential exercise of imbedded options.  The principal objective of asset/liability management is to minimize interest rate risk and our actions in this regard are taken under the guidance of our Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is comprised of members of senior management and members of the Board of Directors.  The ALCO actively formulates the economic assumptions that we use in our financial planning and budgeting process and establishes policies which control and monitor our sources, uses and prices of funds.

Some amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate to the banking business.  Our net income is affected by changes in the absolute level of interest rates.  Our interest rate risk position is well-matched over the near-term. That is, absent any changes in the volumes of our interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities, assets are likely to reprice faster than liabilities, resulting in an increase in net income in a rising rate environment.  Net income would decrease in a falling interest rate environment.  Net income is also subject to changes in the shape of the yield curve.  In general, a flattening yield curve would decrease our earnings due to the compression of earning asset yields and funding rates, while a steepening would increase earnings as margins widen.

Several techniques are available to monitor and control the level of interest rate risk.  We primarily use earnings simulations modeling to monitor interest rate risk.  The earnings simulation model forecasts the effects on net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios that incorporate changes in the absolute level of interest rates and changes in the shape of the yield curve.  Each increase or decrease in interest rates is assumed to gradually take place over the next 12 months, and then remain stable, except for the up 400 scenario, which assumes a gradual increase in rates over 24 months.  Assumptions used to project yields and rates for new loans and deposits are derived from historical analysis.  Securities portfolio maturities and prepayments are reinvested in like instruments.  Mortgage loan prepayment assumptions are developed from industry estimates of prepayment speeds.  Noncontractual deposit repricings are modeled on historical patterns.

The following table presents the estimated sensitivity of our net interest income to changes in interest rates, as measured by our earnings simulation model as of September 30, 2019.  The sensitivity is measured as a percentage change in net interest income given the stated changes in interest rates (gradual change over 12 months, stable thereafter for the down 100 and the up 200 scenarios, and gradual change over 24 months for the up 400 scenario) compared to net interest income with rates unchanged in the same period.  The estimated changes set forth below are dependent on the assumptions discussed above.
