2. Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") for a full year presentation and certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with rules and regulations of the SEC. In the application of certain accounting policies, management is required to make assumptions regarding the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Different amounts could be reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions were used in the application of these accounting policies. The accounting policies that management considers critical in this respect are the determination of the allowance for credit losses and the review of its securities portfolio for other than temporary impairment.

In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year ended December 31, 2020. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 makes significant changes to the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments presented on an amortized cost basis and disclosures about them. These changes are discussed below, under "Impact of Adoption of ASU 2016-13".

Other than the changes resulting from the adoption of ASU 2016-13, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies from those presented in the 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Impact of Adoption of ASU 2016-13

Securities
For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company evaluates the securities to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on the Statement of Condition, limited to the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings. Both the ACL and the adjustment to net income may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired available- for-sale debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount must be recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. Because the security’s amortized cost basis is adjusted to fair value, there is no ACL in this situation.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as provision (credit) for credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectability of an available-for-sale debt security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

Accrued interest receivable on securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Acquired Loans
Acquired loans are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers various factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and a discount rate reflecting the Company’s assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. Certain larger purchased loans are individually evaluated while certain purchased loans are grouped together according to similar risk characteristics and are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change.

Prior to January 1, 2020, loans acquired in a business combination that had evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it was probable, at acquisition, that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable were considered purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) loans. PCI loans were individually evaluated and recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition with no initial valuation allowance based on a discounted cash flow
9


methodology that considered various factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and a discount rate reflecting the Company’ assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. The difference between the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition and the investment in the loan, or the “accretable yield,” was recognized as interest income on a level-yield method over the life of the loan. Contractually required payments for interest and principal that exceed the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition, or the “non-accretable difference,” were not recognized on the Statement of Condition and did not result in any yield adjustments, loss accruals or valuation allowances. Increases in expected cash flows, including prepayments, subsequent to the initial investment were recognized prospectively through adjustment of the yield on the loan over its remaining life. Decreases in expected cash flows were recognized as impairment. Valuation allowances on PCI loans reflected only losses incurred after the acquisition (meaning the present value of all cash flows expected at acquisition that ultimately were not to be received).

Subsequent to January 1, 2020 in connection with the Company's adoption of ASU 2016-13, loans acquired in a business combination that have experienced more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination are considered purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans. At the acquisition date, an estimate of expected credit losses is made for groups of PCD loans with similar risk characteristics and individual PCD loans without similar risk characteristics. This initial allowance for credit losses is allocated to individual PCD loans and added to the purchase price or acquisition date fair values to establish the initial amortized cost basis of the PCD loans. As the initial allowance for credit losses is added to the purchase price, there is no credit loss expense recognized upon acquisition of a PCD loan. Any difference between the unpaid principal balance of PCD loans and the amortized cost basis is considered to relate to noncredit factors and results in a discount or premium. Discounts and premiums are recognized through interest income on a level-yield method over the life of the loans. All loans considered to be PCI prior to January 1, 2020 were converted to PCD on that date.

The subsequent measurement of expected credit losses for all acquired loans is the same as the subsequent measurement of expected credit losses for originated loans.

Allowance for Credit Losses – Loans
Under the current expected credit loss model, the ACL on loans is a valuation allowance estimated at each balance sheet date in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans.

The Company estimates the ACL on loans based on the underlying assets’ amortized cost basis, which is the amount at which the financing receivable is originated or acquired, adjusted for applicable accretion or amortization of premium, discount, collection of cash, and charge-offs. In the event that collection of principal becomes uncertain, the Company has policies in place to reverse accrued interest in a timely manner. Therefore, the Company has made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the measurement of ACL.

Expected credit losses are reflected in the ACL through a charge to the provision for credit loss expense. When the Company deems all or a portion of a financial asset to be uncollectible, the appropriate amount is written off and the ACL is reduced by the same amount. In general, the principal balance of a loan is charged off in full or in part when management concludes, based on the available facts and circumstances, that collection of principal in full is not probable. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the ACL when received.

The Company measures expected credit losses of financial assets at the loan level by segment, by pooling loans when the financial assets share similar risk characteristics. Depending on the nature of the pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, the Company uses a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) method to estimate the expected credit losses. Allowance on loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. The Company assigns a credit risk rating to all commercial and commercial real estate loans. The Company reviews commercial and commercial real estate loans rated Substandard or worse, on nonaccrual and greater than $250,000 for loss potential and when deemed appropriate assigns an allowance based on an individual evaluation.

The Company’s methodologies for estimating the ACL consider available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The methodologies apply historical loss information, adjusted for asset-specific characteristics, economic conditions at the measurement date, and forecasts about future economic conditions expected to exist through the contractual lives of the financial assets that are reasonable and supportable, to the identified pools of financial assets with similar risk characteristics for which the historical loss experience was observed. The Company’s methodologies revert back to average historical loss information on a straight line basis over eight quarters when it can no longer develop reasonable and supportable forecasts.

10


The Company has identified the following pools of financial assets with similar risk characteristics for measuring expected credit losses: commercial, commercial real estate, residential, home equity, consumer and leases. This segmentation was selected based on the differences in the risk profile of each of these categories and aligns well with regulatory reporting categories. This segmentation separates borrower type, collateral type and the nature of the loan. The differences in risk profiles of these segments enables the ACL to be more precise in its allocation due to the inherent risk in these specific portfolios.

Discounted Cash Flow Method
The Company uses the discounted cash flow method to estimate expected credit losses for the commercial, commercial real estate, residential, home equity, and consumer loan pools. For each of these loan segments, the Company generates cash flow projections at the instrument level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speed, curtailments, time to recovery, probability of default, and loss given default. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds, curtailment rates, and time to recovery are based on historical internal data.

The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data to determine suitable loss drivers to utilize when modeling lifetime probability of default and loss given default. This analysis also determines how expected probability of default and loss given default will react to forecasted levels of the loss drivers. For all loan pools utilizing the DCF method, management utilizes and forecasts one or both of the following economic factors; national unemployment and gross domestic product as loss drivers.

For all DCF models, management has determined that four quarters represents a reasonable and supportable forecast period and reverts back to a historical loss rate over eight quarters on a straight-line basis. Management leverages economic projections from an independent third party to inform its loss driver forecasts over the four-quarter forecast period. Other internal and external indicators of economic forecasts are also considered by management when developing the forecast metrics. The model considers a base case forecast and two alternative forecasts and assigns weightings to these three scenarios based on current conditions and expectations for future conditions.

The combination of adjustments for credit expectations (default and loss) and timing expectations (prepayment, curtailment, and time to recovery) produces an expected cash flow stream at the instrument level. Instrument effective yield is calculated, net of the impacts of prepayment assumptions, and the instrument expected cash flows are then discounted at that effective yield to produce an instrument-level net present value of expected cash flows (“NPV”). An ACL is established for the difference between the instrument’s NPV and amortized cost basis.

The model also considers the need to qualitatively adjust expected loss estimates for information not already captured in the loss estimation process. These qualitative factors include those suggested by the Interagency Policy Statement on Allowances for Credit Losses. These qualitative factor adjustments may increase or decrease the Company's estimate of expected credit losses.

Due to the size and characteristics of the leasing portfolio, the remaining life method, using the historical loss rate of the commercial and industrial segment, is used to determine the allowance for credit losses.

Individually Evaluated Financial Assets
Loans that do not share common risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. For collateral dependent financial assets where the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral less cost to sell, and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the measurement date. The ACL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset.

The Company’s estimate of the ACL reflects losses expected over the remaining contractual life of the assets. The contractual term does not consider extensions, renewals or modifications unless the Company has identified an expected troubled debt restructuring.

Troubled Debt Restructuring
A loan that has been modified or renewed is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made for the borrower's benefit that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower or transaction with similar credit risk characteristics. The Company’s ACL reflects all effects of a TDR when an individual asset is specifically identified as a reasonably expected TDR. The Company has determined that a TDR is reasonably expected no later than the point when the lender concludes that modification is the best
11


course of action and it is at least reasonably possible that the troubled borrower will accept some form of concession from the lender to avoid a default. Reasonably expected TDRs and executed non-performing TDRs are evaluated individually to determine the required ACL. TDRs performing in accordance with their modified contractual terms for a reasonable period of time may be included in the Company’s existing pools based on the underlying risk characteristics of the loan to measure the ACL. The provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") and interagency guidance issued by Federal banking regulators provided guidance and clarification related to modifications and deferral programs to assist borrowers who are negatively impacted by the COVID-19 national emergency. The guidance and clarifications detail certain provisions whereby banks are permitted to make deferrals and modifications to the terms of a loan which would not require the loan to be reported as a troubled debt restructuring ('TDR"). In accordance with the CARES Act and the interagency guidance, the Company elected to adopt the provisions to not report qualified loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings.

Loan Commitments and Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures
Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans, unused lines of credit and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for off-balance sheet loan commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

The Company records an allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures, unless the commitments to extend credit are unconditionally cancellable, through a charge to the provision for credit loss expense for off-balance sheet credit exposures included in other noninterest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the current expected credit loss model using similar methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur, and is included in other liabilities on the Company’s statements of condition.

The Company evaluates available-for-sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions at each measurement date to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an ACL on the Statement of Condition, limited to the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings via the provision for credit loss expense.

The gross unrealized losses reported for residential mortgage-backed securities relate to investment securities issued by U.S. government sponsored entities such as Federal National Mortgage Association, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, and U.S. government agencies such as Government National Mortgage Association. The total gross unrealized losses, shown in the tables above, were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and levels of market liquidity, relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and not due to the credit quality of the investment securities.
 
The Company considers the following factors in determining whether a credit loss exists.

The extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis;
The level of credit enhancement provided by the structure which includes, but is not limited to, credit subordination positions, excess spreads, overcollateralization, and protective triggers;
Changes in the near term prospects of the issuer or underlying collateral of a security, such as changes in default rates, loss severities given default and significant changes in prepayment assumptions;
The level of excess cash flow generated from the underlying collateral supporting the principal and interest payments of the debt securities; and
Any adverse change to the credit conditions of the issuer or the security such as credit downgrades by rating agencies.

At January 1, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Company determined that all impaired available-for-sale debt securities experienced a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis due to noncredit-related factors. In addition, the Company does not intend to sell other-than-temporarily impaired investment securities that are in an unrealized loss position until recovery of unrealized losses (which may be until maturity), and it is not more-likely-than not that the Company will be required to sell the investment securities, before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. Therefore, the Company carried no ACL at those respective dates and there was no credit loss expense recognized by the Company during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities by contractual maturity are shown in the following table. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Mortgage-backed securities are shown separately since they are not due at a single maturity date.

The Company also holds non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank New York (“FHLBNY”) stock, non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank Pittsburgh (“FHLBPITT”) stock and non-marketable Atlantic Community Bankers Bank ("ACBB") stock, all of which are required to be held for regulatory purposes and for borrowing availability. The required investment in FHLB stock is tied to the Company’s borrowing levels with the FHLB. Holdings of FHLBNY stock, FHLBPITT stock, and ACBB stock totaled $12.4 million, $6.6 million and $95,000 at June 30, 2020, respectively. These securities are carried at par, which is also cost. The FHLBNY and FHLBPITT continue to pay dividends and repurchase stock. Quarterly, we evaluate our investment in the FHLB for impairment. We evaluate recent and long-term operating performance, liquidity, funding and capital positions, stock repurchase history, dividend history and impact of legislative and regulatory changes. Based on our most recent evaluation, as of June 30, 2020, we have determined that no impairment write-downs are currently required.

The Company has adopted comprehensive lending policies, underwriting standards and loan review procedures. Management reviews these policies and procedures on a regular basis. The Company discussed its lending policies and underwriting guidelines for its various lending portfolios in Note 3 – “Loans and Leases” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. There have been no significant changes in these policies and guidelines since the date of that report. As such, these policies are reflective of new originations as well as those balances held at June 30, 2020. The Company’s Board of Directors approves the lending policies at least annually. The Company recognizes that exceptions to policy guidelines may occasionally occur and has established procedures for approving exceptions to these policy guidelines. Management has also implemented reporting systems to monitor loan origination, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and nonperforming loans and potential problem loans.
 
Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments are due. Generally loans are placed on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days or more past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question as well as when required by regulatory agencies. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Payments received on loans on nonaccrual are generally applied to reduce the principal balance of the loan. Loans are generally returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current, the borrower has established a payment history, and future payments are reasonably assured. When management determines that the collection of principal in full is not probable, management will charge-off a partial amount or full amount of the loan balance. Management considers specific facts and circumstances relative to each individual credit in making such a determination. For residential and consumer loans, management uses specific regulatory guidance and thresholds for determining charge-offs.

5. Allowance for Credit Losses
 
Management reviews the appropriateness of the ACL on a regular basis. Management considers the accounting policy relating to the allowance to be a critical accounting policy, given the inherent uncertainty in evaluating the levels of the allowance required to cover credit losses in the portfolio and the material effect that assumptions could have on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has developed a methodology to measure the amount of estimated credit loss exposure inherent in the loan portfolio to assure that an appropriate allowance is maintained. The Company’s methodology is based upon guidance provided in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("CECL"), and Financial Instruments - Credit Losses and ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses.

The Company uses a DCF method to estimate expected credit losses for all loan segments excluding the leasing segment. For each of these loan segments, the Company generates cash flow projections at the instrument level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speed, curtailments, recovery lag probability of default, and loss give default. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds, curtailment rates, and time to recovery are based on internal historical data.

The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data to determine suitable loss drivers to utilize when modeling lifetime probability of default and loss given default. This analysis also determines how expected probability of default and loss given default will react to forecasted levels of the loss drivers. For all loans utilizing the DCF method, management utilizes and forecasts national unemployment and a one year percentage change in national gross domestic product as loss drivers in the model.

19


For all DCF models, management has determined that four quarters represents a reasonable and supportable forecast period and reverts back to a historical loss rate over eight quarters on a straight-line basis. Management leverages economic projections from a reputable and independent third party to inform its loss driver forecasts over the four-quarter forecast period. Other internal and external indicators of economic forecasts are also considered by management when developing the forecast metrics.

Due to the size and characteristics of the leasing portfolio, the Company uses the remaining life method, using the historical loss rate of the commercial and industrial segment, to determine the allowance for credit losses.

The combination of adjustments for credit expectations and timing expectations produces an expected cash flow stream at the instrument level. Instrument effective yield is calculated, net of the impacts of prepayment assumptions, and the instrument expected cash flows are then discounted at that effective yield to produce a net present value of expected cash flows ("NPV"). An ACL is established for the difference between the NPV and amortized cost basis.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the prospective transition approach for financial assets purchased with credit deterioration ("PCD") that were previously classified as purchased credit impaired ("PCI") and accounted for under ASC 310-30. In accordance with the standard, the Company did not reassess whether PCI assets met the criteria of PCD assets as of the date of adoption. The remaining discount on the PCD assets will be accreted into interest income on a level-yield method over the life of the loans.

Since the methodology is based upon historical experience and trends, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, as well as management’s judgment, factors may arise that result in different estimates. While management’s evaluation of the allowance as of June 30, 2020, considers the allowance to be appropriate, under adversely different conditions or assumptions, the Company would need to increase or decrease the allowance.

Loan Commitments and Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans, and commercial letters of credit. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for off-balance sheet loan commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. The Company records an allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures, unless the commitments to extend credit are unconditionally cancelable, through a charge to credit loss expense for off-balance sheet credit exposures included in other noninterest expense in the Company's consolidated statements of income.

The following table details activity in the allowance for credit losses on loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. As previously discussed, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. Results for the periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable U.S. GAAP. The transition adjustment included a decrease in the allowance of $2.5 million. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

Prior to the adoption of ASC 326, a loan was considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it was probable that we would be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans consisted of non-homogenous nonaccrual loans, and all loans restructured in a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). Specific reserves on individually identified impaired loans that were not collateral dependent were measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate of each loan. For loans that were collateral dependent, impairment was measured based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs, and such impaired amounts were generally charged off. The majority of impaired loans were collateral dependent impaired loans that had limited exposure or require limited specific reserves because of the amount of collateral support with respect to these loans, and previous charge-offs. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured. In these cases, interest is recognized on a cash basis.

Impaired loans at December 31, 2019 were as follows:

Loans are considered modified in a TDR when, due to a borrower’s financial difficulties, the Company makes concessions to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. These modifications may include, among others, an extension for the term of the loan, and granting a period when interest-only payments can be made with the principal payments made over the remaining term of the loan or at maturity.
 
The following tables present information on loans modified in troubled debt restructuring during the periods indicated. There were no modifications on TDRs or defaulted TDRs in the second quarter of 2020.

6. Earnings Per Share
 
Earnings per share in the table below, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are calculated under the two-class method as required by ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. ASC 260 provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company has issued restricted stock awards that contain such rights and are therefore considered participating securities. Basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net income allocable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares, excluding participating securities, during the period. Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect of participating securities.

10. Revenue Recognition
In addition to revenue from loans and securities, the Company also generates revenues from other services provided as described below.

Insurance Commissions and Fees
Fees are earned upon the effective date of bound coverage, as no significant performance obligation remains after coverage is bound. The Company has historically recognized revenue in this manner, with the noted exception related to installment billing discussed below.

Installment Billing - Agency Bill
Revenue associated with the issuance of policies is recognized upon the effective date of the associated policy regardless of the billing method. Revenue is accrued based upon the completion of the performance obligation creating a current asset for the unbilled revenue until such time as an invoice is generated, typically not to exceed twelve months.

Contingent Commissions
Contingent commissions represent a form of variable consideration associated with the same performance obligation, which is the placement of coverage, for which we earn core commissions. Contingent commissions are estimated with an appropriate constraint applied and accrued relative to the recognition of the corresponding core commissions. The resulting effect on the timing of recognition of contingent commissions will more closely follow a similar pattern as our core commissions with true-ups recognized when payments are received or as additional information that affects the estimate becomes available.

Refund of Commissions
The contract with the insurance carrier dictates the level of commissions paid to the Company that will be refunded to the carrier upon cancellation by the policyholder. As a result, the Company has established a liability for the estimated amount of commission to which the Company does not expect to be entitled, and a corresponding reduction to the gross commission received or receivable. The refund liability is updated at the end of each reporting period for changes in circumstances.

37


Trust & Asset Management
Trust and asset management income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and other customer assets. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied over time and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon the month-end market value of the assets under management and the applicable fee rate. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. The Company does not earn performance-based incentives. Optional services such as real estate sales and tax return preparation services are also available to existing trust and asset management customers. The Company’s performance obligation for these transactional-based services is generally satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time (i.e., as incurred). Payment is received shortly after services are rendered.

Mutual Fund & Investment Income
Mutual fund and investment income consists of other recurring revenue streams such as commissions from sales of mutual funds and other investments, investment advisory fees from the Company’s Strategic Asset Management (“SAM”) Services wealth management product. Commissions from the sale of mutual funds and other investments are recognized on trade date, which is when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation. The Company also receives periodic service fees (i.e., trailers) from mutual fund companies typically based on a percentage of net asset value. Trailer revenue is recorded over time, usually monthly or quarterly, as net asset value is determined. Investment advisor fees from the wealth management product is earned over time and based on an annual percentage rate of the net asset value. The investment advisor fees are charged to the customer’s account in advance on the first month of the quarter, and the revenue is recognized over the following three-month period. The Company does engage a third party, LPL Financial, LLC (“LPL”), to satisfy part of this performance obligation, and therefore this income is reported net of any corresponding expenses paid to LPL.

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts consist of account analysis fees (i.e., net fees earned on analyzed business and public checking accounts), monthly service fees, check orders, and other deposit account related fees. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Check orders and other deposit account related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

Card Services Income
Fees, exchange, and other service charges are primarily comprised of debit and credit card income, ATM fees, merchant services income, and other service charges. Debit and credit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Mastercard. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a Company ATM. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. The Company’s performance obligation for fees and exchange are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.

Other
Other service charges include revenue from processing wire and ACH transfers, lock box service and safe deposit box rental. Both wire transfer fees and lock box services are charged on per item basis. Wire and ACH transfer fees are charged at the time of transfer and charged directly to the customer account. Lock box customers are billed monthly and payments are received in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. Safe deposit box rental fees are charged to the customer on an annual basis and recognized upon receipt of payment. The Company determined that since rentals and renewals occur fairly consistently over time, revenue is recognized on a basis consistent with the duration of the performance obligation.

Contract Balances
Receivables primarily consist of amounts due for insurance and wealth management services performed for which the Company's performance obligations have been fully satisfied. Receivables amounted to $3.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, at June 30, 2020, compared to $4.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019 and were included in other assets in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Condition.

A contract asset balance occurs when an entity performs a service for a customer before the customer pays consideration (resulting in a contract receivable) or before payment is due (resulting in a contract asset). The Company’s noninterest revenue streams, excluding some insurance commissions and fees, are largely based on transactional activity, or standard month-end revenue accruals such as asset management fees based on month-end market values. Consideration is often received immediately or shortly after the Company satisfies its performance obligation and revenue is recognized. The Company does not typically enter into long-term revenue contracts with customers, and therefore, does not experience significant contract balances. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any significant contract balances.

A contract liability balance is an entity’s obligation to transfer a service to a customer for which the entity has already received payment (or payment is due) from the customer. The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified current or long-term in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Condition based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize revenue. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, contract liabilities were $2,562,000 and $2,000,000, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses in the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Statements of Condition. The liabilities include premiums due to insurance carriers in addition to unearned commission revenue.

The increase in the contract liability balance during the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 is primarily a result of timing differences in the recognition of revenue related to contract effective dates along with accompanying cash payments received in advance of satisfying performance obligations.

Contract Acquisition Costs
The Company is required to capitalize, and subsequently amortize into expense, certain incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if these costs are expected to be recovered. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that an entity incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained (for example, sales commission). The Company utilizes the practical expedient which allows entities to immediately expense contract acquisition costs when the asset that would have resulted from capitalizing these costs would have been amortized in one year or less.

11. Financial Guarantees
 
The Company currently does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than standby letters of credit. The Company extends standby letters of credit to its customers in the normal course of business. The standby letters of credit are generally short-term. As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s maximum potential obligation under standby letters of credit was $33.6 million compared to $30.5 million at December 31, 2019. Management uses the same credit policies to extend standby letters of credit that it uses for on-balance sheet lending decisions and may require collateral to support standby letters of credit based upon its evaluation of the counterparty. Management does not anticipate any significant losses as a result of these transactions, and has determined that the fair value of standby letters of credit is not significant.
 
12. Segment and Related Information
 
The Company manages its operations through three reportable business segments in accordance with the standards set forth in FASB ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”: (i) banking (“Banking”), (ii) insurance (“Tompkins Insurance”) and (iii) wealth management (“Tompkins Financial Advisors”). The Company’s insurance services and wealth management services, other than trust services, are managed separately from the Banking segment.
 
Banking
The Banking segment is primarily comprised of the Company’s four banking subsidiaries: Tompkins Trust Company, a commercial bank with fourteen banking offices located in Ithaca, NY and surrounding communities; The Bank of Castile (DBA Tompkins Bank of Castile), a commercial bank with sixteen banking offices located in the Genesee Valley region of New York State as well as Monroe County; Mahopac Bank (DBA Tompkins Mahopac Bank), a commercial bank with fourteen full-service banking offices located in the counties north of New York City; and VIST Bank (DBA Tompkins VIST Bank), a banking organization with twenty banking offices headquartered and operating in the areas surrounding southeastern Pennsylvania.
 
40


Insurance
The Company provides property and casualty insurance services and employee benefits consulting through Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc., a 100% wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, headquartered in Batavia, New York. Tompkins Insurance is an independent insurance agency, representing many major insurance carriers and provides employee benefit consulting to employers in Western and Central New York and Southeastern Pennsylvania, assisting them with their medical, group life insurance and group disability insurance. Tompkins Insurance has five stand-alone offices in Western New York.
 
Wealth Management
The Wealth Management segment is generally organized under the Tompkins Financial Advisors brand. Tompkins Financial Advisors offers a comprehensive suite of financial services to customers, including trust and estate services, investment management and financial and insurance planning for individuals, corporate executives, small business owners and high net worth individuals. Tompkins Financial Advisors has offices in each of the Company’s four subsidiary banks. 

Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments and the reconciliation to the Company’s consolidated results is shown in the following table. Investment in subsidiaries is netted out of the presentations below. The “Intercompany” column identifies the intercompany activities of revenues, expenses and other assets between the banking, insurance and wealth management services segments. The Company accounts for intercompany fees and services at an estimated fair value according to regulatory requirements for the services provided. Intercompany items relate primarily to the use of human resources, information systems, accounting and marketing services provided by any of the banks and the holding company. All other accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

13. Fair Value Measurements

 FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC Topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Transfers between levels, when determined to be appropriate, are recognized at the end of each reporting period.  
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC Topic 820 are:
 
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; 

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
 
Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).  
 
43


The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, segregated by the level of valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy used to measure fair value.

Securities: Fair values for U.S. Treasury securities are based on quoted market prices. Fair values for obligations of U.S. government sponsored entities, mortgage-backed securities-residential, obligations of U.S. states and political subdivisions, and U.S. corporate debt securities are based on quoted market prices, where available, as provided by third party pricing vendors. If quoted market prices were not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments in active markets and/or based upon matrix pricing methodology, which uses comprehensive interest rate tables to determine market price, movement and yield relationships. These securities are reviewed periodically to determine if there are any events or changes in circumstances that would adversely affect their value.

The change in the fair value of equity securities valued using significant unobservable inputs (level 3), for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, was immaterial.
 
There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
 
The Company determines fair value for its available-for-sale debt securities using an independent bond pricing service for identical assets or very similar securities.  The Company determines fair value for its equity securities based on the underlying equity fund’s pricing and valuation procedures which consider recent sales price, market quotations from a pricing service, or market quotes from an independent broker-dealer.  The Company has reviewed the pricing sources, including methodologies used, and finds them to be fairly stated.
44



Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. For the Company, these include loans held for sale, collateral dependent evaluated loans, and other real estate owned (“OREO”). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, certain collateral dependent evaluated loans were remeasured and reported at fair value through a specific valuation allowance and/or partial charge-offs for credit losses based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 2 inputs based upon observable market data. In addition to collateral dependent evaluated loans, certain other real estate owned were remeasured and reported at fair value based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral. The fair values of other real estate owned are estimated using Level 2 inputs based on observable market data or Level 3 inputs based on customized discounting criteria. In general, the fair values of other real estate owned are based upon appraisals, with discounts made to reflect estimated costs to sell the real estate. Upon initial recognition, fair value write-downs are taken through a charge-off to the allowance for credit losses. Subsequent fair value write-downs on other real estate owned are reported in other noninterest expense.

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Statements of Condition for cash, noninterest-bearing deposits, money market funds, and Federal funds sold approximate the fair value of those assets.
 
Securities: Fair values for U.S. Treasury securities are based on quoted market prices. Fair values for obligations of U.S. government sponsored entities, mortgage-backed securities-residential, obligations of U.S. states and political subdivisions, and U.S. corporate debt securities are based on quoted market prices, where available, as provided by third party pricing vendors. If quoted market prices were not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments in active markets and/or based upon matrix pricing methodology, which uses comprehensive interest rate tables to determine market price, movement and yield relationships. These securities are reviewed periodically to determine if there are any events or changes in circumstances that would adversely affect their value.

Loans and Leases: Fair value for loans are calculated using an exit price notion. The Company's valuation methodology takes into account factors such as estimated cash flows, including contractual cash flow and assumptions for prepayments; liquidity risk; and credit risk. The fair values of residential loans were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based upon available market benchmarks for rates and prepayment assumptions. The fair values of commercial and consumer loans were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based upon interest rates currently offered for loans and leases with similar terms and credit quality. The fair values of loans held for sale were determined based upon contractual prices for loans with similar characteristics.
 
FHLB Stock: The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates fair value. If the stock is redeemed, the Company will receive an amount equal to the par value of the stock. For miscellaneous equity securities, carrying value is cost.
 
Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable: The carrying amount of these short term instruments approximate fair value.
 
Deposits: The fair values disclosed for noninterest bearing accounts and accounts with no stated maturities are equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is based upon discounted cash flow analyses using rates offered for FHLB advances, which is the Company’s primary alternative source of funds.
 
47


Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase: The carrying amounts of repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values. Fair values of long-term borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow approach, based on current market rates for similar borrowings. For securities sold under agreements to repurchase where the Company has elected the fair value option, the Company also receives pricing information from third parties, including the FHLB.
 
Other Borrowings: The fair values of other borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, discounted at the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar borrowing arrangements. For other borrowings where the Company has elected the fair value option, the Company also receives pricing information from third parties, including the FHLB.
 
Trust Preferred Debentures: The fair value of the trust preferred debentures has been estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis which uses a discount factor of a market spread over current interest rates for similar instruments.
 
Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

BUSINESS
 
Corporate Overview and Strategic Initiatives
Tompkins Financial Corporation (“Tompkins” or the “Company”) is headquartered in Ithaca, New York and is registered as a Financial Holding Company with the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company is a locally oriented, community-based financial services organization that offers a full array of products and services, including commercial and consumer banking, leasing, trust and investment management, financial planning and wealth management, and insurance services. At June 30, 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries included: four wholly-owned banking subsidiaries, Tompkins Trust Company (the “Trust Company”), The Bank of Castile (DBA Tompkins Bank of Castile), Mahopac Bank (DBA Tompkins Mahopac Bank), VIST Bank (DBA Tompkins VIST Bank); and a wholly-owned insurance agency subsidiary, Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc. (“Tompkins Insurance”). The trust division of the Trust Company provides a full array of investment services, including investment management, trust and estate, financial and tax planning as well as life, disability and long-term care insurance services.

The Company's growth strategy includes initiatives to grow organically through our current businesses, as well as through possible acquisitions of financial institutions, branches, and financial services businesses. As such, the Company has acquired, and from time to time considers acquiring, banks, thrift institutions, branch offices of banks or thrift institutions, or other businesses that would complement the Company’s business or its geographic reach. The Company generally targets merger or acquisition partners that are culturally similar and have experienced management and possess either significant market presence or have potential for improved profitability through financial management, economies of scale and expanded services.

Business Segments
Banking services consist primarily of attracting deposits from the areas served by the Company’s four banking subsidiaries’ 64 banking offices (44 offices in New York and 20 offices in Pennsylvania) and using those deposits to originate a variety of commercial loans, consumer loans, real estate loans (including commercial loans collateralized by real estate), and leases. The Company’s lending function is managed within the guidelines of a comprehensive Board-approved lending policy. Reporting systems are in place to provide management with ongoing information related to loan production, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies, and nonperforming and potential problem loans. Banking services also include a full suite of products such as debit cards, credit cards, remote deposit, electronic banking, mobile banking, cash management, and safe deposit services.
 
Wealth management services consist of investment management, trust and estate, financial and tax planning as well as life, disability and long-term care insurance services. Wealth management services are provided by the Trust Company under the trade name Tompkins Financial Advisors. Tompkins Financial Advisors has office locations, and services are available to customers, at the Company’s four subsidiary banks.

Insurance services include property and casualty insurance, employee benefit consulting, and life, long-term care and disability insurance. Tompkins Insurance is headquartered in Batavia, New York. Over the years, Tompkins Insurance has acquired smaller insurance agencies in the market areas serviced by the Company’s banking subsidiaries and successfully consolidated them into Tompkins Insurance. In the second quarter of 2019, Tompkins Insurance acquired the Cali Agency, Inc., an insurance agency located in western New York, in a cash transaction. The Company recorded the following intangible assets as a result of the acquisition: goodwill ($0.2 million), customer related intangible ($0.2 million) and a covenant-not-to-compete ($0.1 million). The values of the customer related intangible and covenant-not-to-compete are being amortized over 15 years and 5 years, respectively. The goodwill is not being amortized but will be evaluated at least annually for impairment. Tompkins Insurance offers services to customers of the Company’s banking subsidiaries by sharing offices with The Bank of Castile, Trust Company, and VIST Bank. In addition to these shared offices, Tompkins Insurance has five stand-alone offices in Western New York, and one stand-alone office in Tompkins County, New York.
 
The Company’s principal expenses are interest on deposits, interest on borrowings, and operating and general administrative expenses, as well as provisions for credit losses. Funding sources, other than deposits, include borrowings, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and cash flow from lending and investing activities.
 
Competition
Competition for commercial banking and other financial services is strong in the Company’s market areas. In one or more aspects of its businesses, the Company’s subsidiaries compete with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies, Internet-based financial services companies, mutual funds, insurance companies, brokerage and investment banking companies, and other financial intermediaries. Some of these competitors have substantially greater resources and lending capabilities and may offer services that the Company does not currently provide. In addition, many of the Company’s non-bank competitors are not subject to the same extensive Federal regulations that govern financial holding companies and Federally-insured banks.
 
Competition among financial institutions is based upon interest rates offered on deposit accounts, interest rates charged on loans and other credit and service charges, the quality and scope of the services rendered, the convenience of facilities and services, and, in the case of loans to commercial borrowers, relative lending limits. Management believes that a community-based financial organization is better positioned to establish personalized financial relationships with both commercial customers and individual households. The Company’s community commitment and involvement in its primary market areas, as well as its commitment to quality and personalized financial services, are factors that contribute to the Company’s competitiveness. Management believes that each of the Company’s subsidiary banks can compete successfully in its primary market areas by making prudent lending decisions quickly and more efficiently than its competitors, without compromising asset quality or profitability. In addition, the Company focuses on providing unparalleled customer service, which includes offering a strong suite of products and services. Although management feels that this business model has caused the Company to grow its customer base in recent years and allows it to compete effectively in the markets it serves, we cannot assure you that such factors will result in future success.
Regulation
Banking, insurance services and wealth management are highly regulated. As a financial holding company with four community banks, a registered investment adviser, and an insurance agency subsidiary, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to examination and regulation by the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”), Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the New York State Department of Financial Services, Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and the Pennsylvania Insurance Department.


OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
 
The following discussion is intended to provide an understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

In this Report, there are comparisons of the Company’s performance to that of a peer group, which is comprised of the group of 148 domestic bank holding companies with $3 billion to $10 billion in total assets as defined in the Federal Reserve’s “Bank Holding Company Performance Report” for March 31, 2020 (the most recent report available). Although the peer group data is presented based upon financial information that is one fiscal quarter behind the financial information included in this report, the Company believes that it is relevant to include certain peer group information for comparison to current quarter numbers.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact may include forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements may be identified by use of such words as "may", "will", "estimate", "intend", "continue", "believe", "expect", "plan", or "anticipate", and other similar words. Examples of forward-looking statements may include statements regarding the asset quality of the Company's loan portfolios; the level of the Company's allowance for credit losses; whether, when and how borrowers will repay deferred amounts and resume scheduled payments; the sufficiency of liquidity sources; the Company's exposure to changes in interest rates, and to new, changed, or extended government/regulatory expectations; the impact of changes in accounting standards; and trends, plans, prospects, growth and strategies. Forward-looking statements are made based on management’s expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and are subject to certain uncertainties and factors relating to the Company’s operations and economic environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of the Company, that could cause actual results of the Company to differ materially from those expressed and/or implied by forward-looking statements. The following factors, in addition to those listed as Risk Factors in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and Item 1A in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, are among those that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements: changes in general economic, market and regulatory conditions; the severity and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and the impact of the outbreak (including the government’s response to the outbreak) on economic and financial markets, potential regulatory actions, and modifications to our operations, products, and services relating thereto; disruptions in our and our customers’ operations and loss of revenue due to pandemics, epidemics, widespread health emergencies, government-imposed travel/business restrictions, or outbreaks of infectious diseases such as the COVID-19, and the associated adverse impact on our financial position, liquidity, and our customers’ abilities or willingness to repay their obligations to us or willingness to obtain financial services products from the Company; a decision to amend or modify the terms under which our customers are obligated to repay amounts owed to us; the development of an interest rate environment that may adversely affect the Company’s interest rate spread, other income or cash flow anticipated from the Company’s operations, investment and/or lending activities; changes in laws and regulations affecting banks, bank holding companies and/or financial holding companies, such as the Dodd-Frank Act and Basel III and the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act; legislative and regulatory changes in response to COVID-19 with which we and our subsidiaries must comply, including the CARES Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and state and local government mandates; technological developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis; governmental and public policy changes, including environmental regulation; reliance on large customers; uncertainties arising from national and global events, including the potential impact of widespread protests, civil unrest, and political uncertainty on the economy and the financial services industry; and financial resources in the amounts, at the times and on the terms required to support the Company’s future businesses.

Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform, in all material respects, to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and to general practices within the financial services industry. In the course of normal business activity, management must select and apply many accounting policies and methodologies and make estimates and assumptions that lead to the financial results presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. There are uncertainties inherent in making these estimates and assumptions, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

Management considers accounting estimates to be critical to reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimates require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain, and (ii) different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, could have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. Management considers the accounting policies relating to the allowance for credit losses (“allowance”, or “ACL”), and the review of the securities portfolio for other-than-temporary impairment to be critical accounting policies because of the uncertainty and subjectivity involved in these policies and the material effect that estimates related to these areas can have on the Company’s results of operations. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," which resulted in changes to the Company's existing critical accounting policy that existed at December 31, 2019.
50


The Company’s methodology for estimating the allowance considers available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Refer to “Allowance for Credit Losses” below, Note 5 - Allowance for Credit Losses, and Note 2 – Basis of Presentation in the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements elsewhere in this report for further discussion of the allowance.

For information on the Company's significant accounting policies and to gain a greater understanding of how the Company’s financial performance is reported, refer to Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Refer to "Recently Issued Accounting Standards" in Management's Discussion and Analysis included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of recent accounting updates.

COVID-19 Pandemic and Recent Events

The COVID-19 global pandemic continued to present health and economic challenges on an unprecedented scale during the second quarter of 2020. During the second quarter, the Company continued to focus on the health and well-being of its workforce, meeting its clients' needs, and supporting its communities. The Company has designated a Pandemic Planning Committee, which includes key individuals across the Company as well as members of Senior Management, to oversee the Company’s response to COVID-19, and implemented a number of risk mitigation measures designed to protect our employees and customers while maintaining services for our customers and community. These measures included restrictions on business travel, establishment of a remote work environment for most non-customer facing employees, and social distancing restrictions for those employees working at our offices and branch locations. As of June 30, 2020, approximately 85% of noncustomer facing employees continue to work remotely. In July 2020, we began initiating the reopening of our offices and reinstatement of branch services, and the return of our workforce. With a view toward protecting the health and well-being of the Company's workforce, customers, and visitors as we reopen, we implemented several new social distancing elements and other protective measures, such as temperature screenings, distribution of personal protective equipment, and workforce self-certifications.

Tompkins has offered assistance to its customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic by implementing a payment deferral program to assist both consumer and business borrowers that may be experiencing financial hardship due to COVID-19. Our standard program allows for the deferral of loan payments for up to 90 days and customers were able to request a payment deferral through July 15, 2020; in certain cases and/or where required by applicable law or regulation we will extend additional deferrals or other accommodations. As of June 30, 2020, total deferrals attributed to COVID-19 were $2.3 billion, representing 3,878 borrowers or 42.0% of the total loan portfolio. Of that total, 1,648 were retail customers representing $254.2 million, or 4.7% of total loans, and 2,230 were commercial customers representing $2.0 billion, or 37.3% of total loans. As of July 27, 2020, 1,847 of the loans participating in the deferral program had started making monthly payments, and 86 loans had missed a scheduled payment date. We expect that loans in deferment status will continue to accrue interest during the deferment period unless otherwise provided in a subsequent modification agreement, or otherwise classified as nonperforming. The provisions of the CARES Act and interagency guidance issued by Federal banking regulators provided clarification related to modifications and deferral programs to assist borrowers who are negatively impacted by the COVID-19 national emergency. The guidance and clarifications detail certain provisions whereby banks are permitted to make deferrals and modifications to the terms of a loan which would not require the loan to be reported as a troubled debt restructuring. In accordance with the CARES Act and the interagency guidance, the Company elected to adopt the provisions to not report qualified loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings.

The Company is also participating in the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). This program provides borrower guarantees for lenders, and envisions a certain amount of loan forgiveness for loan recipients who properly utilize funds, all in accordance with the rules and regulations established by the SBA for the PPP. The Company began accepting applications for PPP loans on April 3, 2020, and as of June 30, 2020, had approved and funded over 2,997 loans totaling approximately $465.6 million. As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded net deferred loan fees of $2.3 million, which are included in interest income, related to the PPP loan program.

As of June 30, 2020, we believe Tompkins was well positioned with a strong balance sheet and asset quality, capital ratios well above regulatory requirements, and strong liquidity position. Asset quality measures were strong and showed improvement when compared to December 31, 2019, with total nonaccrual loans down 4.0%, and total nonperforming assets down 4.5%. There was limited impact of COVID-19 reflected in first and second quarter numbers, although it is uncertain what the impact on future quarters will be. As mentioned above, the Company is working with its customers and implemented a loan payment deferral program and participates in the PPP. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had not experienced any significant impact to our liquidity or funding capabilities as a result of COVID-19. The Company’s participation as a lender in the PPP has been and will continue to be a use of liquidity; however, the Federal Reserve Bank has provided a lending facility that may be used by
51


banks to obtain funding specifically for PPP loans. PPP loans would be pledged as collateral on a bank's borrowings under the Federal Reserve Bank's designated PPP lending facility.

RESULTS OF OPERATION
 
Performance Summary
Net income for the second quarter of 2020 was $21.4 million or $1.44 diluted earnings per share, compared to $19.4 million or $1.27 diluted earnings per share for the same period in 2019. Net income for the first six months of 2020 was $29.4 million or $1.97 diluted earnings per share compared to $40.4 million or $2.63 diluted earnings per share for the first six months of 2019. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in the prior year, increased primarily due to an increase in net interest income and a decrease in provision expense, partially offset by a decrease in noninterest income.

Return on average assets (“ROA”) for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was 1.16%, compared to 1.15% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Return on average shareholders’ equity (“ROE”) for the second quarter of 2020 was 12.48%, compared to 11.96% for the same period in 2019. For the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2020, ROA and ROE totaled 0.84% and 8.63%, respectively, compared to 1.21% and 12.73%, for the same period in 2019.

Segment Reporting
The Company operates in the following three business segments, banking, insurance, and wealth management. Insurance is comprised of property and casualty insurance services and employee benefit consulting operated under the Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc. subsidiary. Wealth management activities include the results of the Company’s trust, financial planning, and wealth management services, organized under the Tompkins Financial Advisors brand. All other activities are considered banking.
 
Banking Segment
The banking segment reported net income of $20.1 million for the second quarter of 2020, an increase of $2.5 million or 14.1% from net income of $17.6 million for the same period in 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the banking segment reported net income of $25.9 million, a decrease of $10.6 million or 29.0% from the same period in 2019.
 
Net interest income of $56.4 million for the second quarter of 2020 increased $4.0 million or 7.7% over the same period in 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net interest income of $109.3 million was up $5.1 million or 4.9% compared to the first six months of 2019. The increase in net interest income was mainly a result of a decrease in interest expense resulting from lower market interest rates and a shift in funding mix from borrowings to deposits. Interest income also benefited from loan growth and an asset mix consisting of a greater percentage of loans to total assets. Loan growth included $465.6 million of PPP loans originated during the second quarter of 2020.
 
Provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2020 was a negative provision of $348,000 compared to an expense of $601,000 for the same period in 2019. Provision expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $15.9 million, compared to $1.0 million for the same period in 2019. The first quarter of 2020 included provision expense of $16.3 million related to the impact of the economic shutdown due to COVID-19 on economic forecasts and other model assumptions relied upon by management in determining the allowance, and reflects the calculation of the allowance for credit losses in accordance with ASU 2016-13. For additional information see the section titled "The Allowance for Credit Losses" below.
 
Noninterest income of $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was down $902,000 or 12.6% compared to the same period in 2019. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in noninterest income was primarily attributable to a decrease in overdraft income. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, noninterest income of $13.2 million was down $1.5 million or 10.0% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the six month results compared to the same period in the prior year was mainly due to an $816,000 decrease in overdraft fees and a $1.1 million decrease in cardholder income, mainly attributable to fewer transactions during the shutdown due to COVID-19.

Noninterest expense of $37.7 million for the second quarter of 2020, and $74.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, was up $642,000 or 1.7% and up $2.0 million or 2.8%, respectively, from the same periods in 2019. The increases were mainly attributed to increases in salary and wages and employee benefits reflecting normal annual merit increases, premium pay for employees required to be on-site, and incentive adjustments over the comparable periods in the prior year. Expenses for the second quarter and year to date period ended June 30, 2020, included $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, related to allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet exposures. Other expense in the second quarter of 2020 also included a loss of $675,000 related to the pending sale of real estate.
 
52


Insurance Segment
The insurance segment reported net income of $743,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was down $379,000 or 33.8% compared to the second quarter of 2019. Total revenue was down $493,000 or 6.3% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net income was down $603,000 or 24.1% compared to the same period in the prior year. Total revenue was down $491,000 or 3.1% compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in revenues and net income for the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in the prior year is mainly due to lower contingency revenues and an increase in reserves for cancellations and policy changes as a result of economic uncertainties related to COVID-19. New business volumes have also been negatively impacted by COVID-19.

Noninterest expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were up $27,000 or 0.4% and up $313,000 or 2.5% compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest expense for the second quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2020 is mainly the result of an increase in salaries and wages and employee benefits reflecting normal annual merit increases. Other expenses including new business commissions, auto and travel, entertainment, business meetings, supplies, building maintenance and sponsorships for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, were down compared to the same periods in the prior year, mainly a result of the shutdown due to COVID-19.
 
Wealth Management Segment
The wealth management segment reported net income of $581,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was down $70,000 or 10.8% compared to the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was mainly due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits expenses; revenues for the second quarter of 2020 were in line with the second quarter of 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net income of $1.6 million was up $122,000 or 8.3% compared to the prior year, mainly due to an increase in advisory, terminating trust and estate fee income over the same period prior year. Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020, were up 1.0% over the same period in 2019.

1 Average balances and yields on available-for-sale debt securities are based on historical amortized cost
2 Interest income includes the tax effects of taxable-equivalent adjustments using an effective income tax rate of 21% in 2020 and 2019 to increase tax exempt interest income to taxable-equivalent basis.
3 Nonaccrual loans are included in the average asset totals presented above.  Payments received on nonaccrual loans have been recognized as disclosed in Note 1 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in Part 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.    

Net Interest Income 
Net interest income is the Company’s largest source of revenue, representing 76.6% and 75.2%, respectively, of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 73.9% and 73.3% for the same periods in 2019. Net interest income is dependent on the volume and composition of interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the level of market interest rates. The above table shows average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the corresponding yield or cost associated with each.

Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2020, increased $4.0 million or 7.7% from the same period in the prior year. Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 increased by $5.1 million or 4.9% over the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase compared to the prior year was mainly due to lower interest expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in the prior year, driven by lower market interest rates and deposit growth, which contributed to a reduction in other borrowings. Net interest income also benefited from a shift in the composition of average earning assets, with loans, which carry higher average yields than securities, comprising an increased percentage of average earning assets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, average loans represented 79.8% and 79.3% of average earning assets compared to 75.8% and 75.6% for the same periods in 2019. Net interest margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was 3.45% compared to 3.34% in 2019. The improved net interest margin year-over-year was largely driven by lower funding costs, reflecting lower deposit rates and growth in deposit balances, which were used to reduce higher cost other borrowing balances. The benefit of lower funding costs were partially offset by decrease in average asset yields.
 
Taxable-equivalent interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, was $63.9 million and $127.5 million, respectively, down 3.9% and 3.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. The year-over-year decrease in taxable-equivalent interest income was mainly a result of lower asset yields, partially offset by growth in average loans. Average asset yields for the first six months of 2020 were down 20 basis points compared to the first six months of 2019, which reflects the impact of reductions in market interest rates during the first six months of 2020, and the addition of the lower yielding PPP loans originated in the second quarter. Average loan balances for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, were up $474.0 million or 9.9% and $297.7 million or 6.2%, respectively, while the average yield on loans decreased 46 basis points and 30 basis points, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same periods in 2019. The increase in average loans includes the benefit of $465.6 million of PPP loans originated in the second quarter of 2020. As a result of its participation in the SBA's PPP, in the second quarter the Company recorded net deferred loan fees of $2.3 million, which are included in interest income. Average securities balances for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, were down $173.4 million or 11.7% and $192.5 million or 12.9%, respectively, and the average yield on securities was down 17 basis points and down 15 basis points, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019.
 
Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, decreased by $6.7 million or 48.6% and $9.5 million or 35.4%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019, driven mainly by decreases in rates paid on deposits and borrowings as a result of lower market interest rates. Growth in average deposit balances also resulted in a decrease in higher cost other borrowings. The average cost of interest-bearing deposits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was 0.44% and 0.58%, respectively, down 40 basis points and 21 basis points, compared to the same periods in 2019. Average interest-bearing deposits for the second quarter of 2020 were up $746.4 million or 20.6% compared to the same period in 2019, while year-to-date average interest-bearing deposits were up $526.7 million or 14.6% compared to the same period in 2019. Average noninterest bearing deposits were up $431.8 million or 31.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the second quarter of 2019, and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were up $251.3 million or 18.7% with the same period in 2019. Average deposit balances benefited from $465.6 million of PPP loan originations during the second quarter of 2020, the majority of which were deposited into Tompkins checking accounts. Average other borrowings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were down $557.2 million or 58.7% and $526.1 million or 54.2% compared to the same periods in 2019, mainly due to decreases in overnight borrowings with the FHLB as a result of deposit growth.

Provision for Credit Losses 
The provision for credit losses represents management’s estimate of the amount necessary to maintain the allowance for credit losses at an appropriate level. Provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2020 was a negative provision of $348,000 compared to an expense of $601,000 for the same period in 2019. Provision expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $15.9 million, compared to $1.0 million for the same period in 2019. The first quarter of 2020 included provision expense of $16.3 million related to the impact of the economic shutdown related to COVID-19 on economic forecasts and other model assumptions relied upon by management in determining the allowance, as well as normal adjustments for loan growth, and changing loan portfolio and segment mix, and is due to the calculation of the allowance for credit losses in accordance with ASU 2016-13. The section captioned “Financial Condition – The Allowance for Credit Losses” below has further details on the allowance for credit losses and asset quality metrics.

Noninterest Income 
Noninterest income was $17.2 million for the second quarter of 2020, which was down 7.3% compared to the second quarter of 2019, and $36.1 million for the first six months of 2020, which was down 4.7% from the same period prior year. Noninterest income represented 23.4% of total revenue for the second quarter of 2020 and 24.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 26.1% and 26.7% for the same periods in 2019.The reduction in fee based income in 2020 is largely related to pandemic-related travel and business restrictions, which reduced card services and service charge income, and insurance revenues.
 
Insurance commissions and fees, the largest component of noninterest income, were $7.3 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 6.41% from the same period prior year. For the first six months of 2020, insurance commissions and fees were down $0.5 million or 3.15% compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease in insurance revenues in the second quarter and first six months of 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019 was mainly a result of the economic slowdown and uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
Investment services income of $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2020 was in line with the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, investment services income was up $131,000 or 1.6% compared to the same period in 2019, mainly due to higher estate and terminating trust fees earned in 2020. Investment services income includes trust services, financial planning, wealth management services, and brokerage related services. With fees largely based on the market value and the mix of assets managed, the general direction of the stock market can have a considerable impact on fee income. The fair value of assets managed by, or in custody of, Tompkins was $3.9 billion at June 30, 2020, which was down $10.7 million or 0.3% from June 30, 2019. The fair value of assets in custody at June 30, 2020 includes $1.0 billion of Company-owned securities where Tompkins Trust Company is custodian.
 
Card services income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, was down $467,000 or 17.0% and $1.1 million or 19.4%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. Debit card income, the largest component of card services income, was down $267,000 or 13.6% over the same quarter in the prior year, and down $335,000 or 9.5% over the first six months of 2019. Contributing to the decrease from the prior year was a one-time incentive payment of $500,000 (pre-tax) related to our merchant card business received in the first six months of 2019, and a decrease in transaction volume related to COVID-19.

The Company recognized gains on securities transactions of $5,000 and $448,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $284,000 and $296,000, respectively, of gains for the same periods in 2019. The year-to-date 2020 gains include $178,000 of gains on the sales of available-for-sale debt securities, $251,000 of gains on securities called during the second quarter and $14,000 of realized gains from the change in the fair value of equity securities. The sales of available-for-sale debt securities are mainly the result of general portfolio maintenance and interest rate risk management.

Other income of $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2020 was up $660,000 or 36.5% compared to the same period in 2019. For the first six months of 2020, other income of $4.6 million was up $286,000 or 6.7% compared to the same period in 2019. The increase for the second quarter and the first six months of 2020 compared to the same periods of 2019 was mainly the result of gains on sales of residential mortgage loans of $691,000 (up $671,000), and $867,000 (up $753,000), respectively.
 
Noninterest Expense 
Noninterest expense was $46.9 million for the second quarter of 2020 and $92.6 million for the first six months of 2020, up 1.8% and 2.6%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019.
 
Expenses associated with compensation and benefits comprise the largest component of noninterest expense, representing 61.7% and 61.6% of total noninterest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Salaries and wages expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $949,000 or 4.3% and $2.3 million or 5.4%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. The increases were mainly due to normal merit adjustments, increase in average full time equivalent employees, and premium pay for employees who were required to be on premise during the shutdown related to COVID-19. Employee benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, increased by $224,000 or 4.0% and $297,000 or 2.6% over the same periods in 2019, mainly as a result of higher healthcare expenses.

Other expense categories, not related to compensation and benefits, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were in line compared to the same periods in 2019. Expenses for the second quarter and year to date period ended June 30, 2020, included $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, related to allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet exposures. Other expense in the second quarter of 2020 also included a loss of $675,000 related to the pending sale of real estate. Marketing expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were down $709,000 or 43.1% and $931,000 or 33.2%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. Professional fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, were down $1.4 million or 49.7% and $1.5 million or 31.4%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. Travel related
57


expenses decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to limitations related to the COVID-19 shutdown and social distancing guidelines.

Income Tax Expense 
The provision for income taxes was $5.5 million for an effective rate of 20.5% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to tax expense of $4.7 million and an effective rate of 19.6% for the same quarter in 2019. For the first six months of 2020, the provision for income taxes was $7.4 million for an effective rate of 20.2% compared to tax expense of $10.3 million and an effective rate of 20.3% for the same period in 2019. The effective rates differ from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the effect of tax-exempt income from loans, securities and life insurance assets, and the income tax effects associated with stock based compensation.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
 
Total assets were $7.6 billion at June 30, 2020, up $856.4 million or 12.7% from December 31, 2019. The increase in total assets was mainly in the loan portfolio. Total loan balances were $5.4 billion at June 30, 2020, up $506.7 million or 10.3% compared to the $4.9 billion reported at year-end 2019, mainly due to the addition of $465.6 million of PPP loans originated and funded in the second quarter of 2020. Total deposits were up $1.2 billion or 22.3% from December 31, 2019. Other borrowings decreased $333.1 million or 50.6% from December 31, 2019, as deposit growth was used to reduce borrowings.

Securities
As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s securities portfolio was $1.3 billion or 17.6% of total assets, compared to $1.3 billion or 19.3% of total assets at year end 2019. The following table details the composition of available-for-sale debt securities.

Total available-for-sale debt securities$1,301,271  $1,335,153  $1,293,239  $1,298,587  
   
As of June 30, 2020, the available-for-sale debt securities portfolio had net unrealized gains of $33.9 million compared to net unrealized gains of $5.3 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in unrealized gains related to the available-for-sale debt securities portfolio, which reflects the amount that the fair value exceeds amortized cost, was due primarily to changes in market interest rates during the first six months of 2020. Management’s policy is to purchase investment grade securities that on average have relatively short duration, which helps mitigate interest rate risk and provides sources of liquidity without significant risk to capital.
 
The Company evaluates available-for-sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions at each measurement date to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an ACL on the balance sheet, limited to the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings via credit loss expense.

The Company determined that at June 30, 2020, all impaired available-for-sale debt securities experienced a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis due to noncredit-related factors. In addition, the Company does not intend to sell other-than-temporarily impaired investment securities that are in an unrealized loss position until recovery of unrealized losses (which may be until maturity), and it is not more-likely-than not that the Company will be required to sell the investment securities, before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. Therefore, the Company carried no ACL at June 30, 2020 and there was no credit loss expense recognized by the Company with respect to the securities portfolio during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Total loans and leases of $5.4 billion at June 30, 2020 were up $506.7 million or 10.3% from December 31, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, total loans and leases represented 71.5% of total assets compared to 73.1% of total assets at December 31, 2019.

Residential real estate loans, including home equity loans were $1.4 billion at June 30, 2020, up $29.1 million or 2.1% compared to December 31, 2019, and comprised 25.9% of total loans and leases at June 30, 2020. Changes in residential loan balances are impacted by the Company’s decision to retain these loans or sell them in the secondary market due to interest rate considerations. The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee meets regularly and establishes standards for selling and retaining residential real estate mortgage originations.
 
The Company may sell residential real estate loans in the secondary market based on interest rate considerations. These residential real estate loans are generally sold to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) or State of New York Mortgage Agency (“SONYMA”) without recourse in accordance with standard secondary market loan sale agreements. These residential real estate loans also are subject to customary representations and warranties made by the Company, including representations and warranties related to gross incompetence and fraud. The Company has not had to repurchase any loans as a result of these representations and warranties.
 
During the first six months of 2020 and 2019, the Company retained the vast majority of residential mortgage loans originated, selling $15.9 million and $9.6 million, respectively, recognizing gains on these sales of $867,000 and $114,000, respectively. These residential real estate loans were sold without recourse in accordance with standard secondary market loan sale agreements. When residential mortgage loans are sold, the Company typically retains all servicing rights, which provides the Company with a source of fee income. Mortgage servicing rights totaled $840,000 at June 30, 2020 and $805,000 at December 31, 2019. 

59


Commercial real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans totaled $2.5 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively, and represented 46.8% and 25.9%, respectively of total loans as of June 30, 2020. The commercial real estate portfolio was up $95.1 million or 3.9% over year-end 2019, while commercial and industrial loans were up 39.3%. The increase in commercial and industrial loans over year-end included $465.6 million of PPP loans funded during the second quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2020, agriculturally-related loans totaled $287.0 million or 5.3% of total loans and leases, compared to $290.7 million or 5.9% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2019. Agriculturally-related loans include loans to dairy farms and crop farms. Agriculturally-related loans are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower with consideration given to underlying collateral, personal guarantees, and government related guarantees. Agriculturally-related loans are generally secured by the assets or property being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable, livestock, equipment or commodities/crops.
The Company has adopted comprehensive lending policies, underwriting standards and loan review procedures. Management reviews these policies and procedures on a regular basis. The Company discussed its lending policies and underwriting guidelines for its various lending portfolios in Note 3 – “Loans and Leases” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. There have been no significant changes in these policies and guidelines since the date of that report. Therefore, both new originations as well as those balances held at June 30, 2020, reflect these policies and guidelines. The Company’s Board of Directors approves the lending policies at least annually. The Company recognizes that exceptions to policy guidelines may occasionally occur and has established procedures for approving exceptions to these policy guidelines. Management has also implemented reporting systems to monitor loan originations, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and nonperforming loans and potential problem loans. 

The Company's loan and lease customers are located primarily in the New York and Pennsylvania communities served by its four subsidiary banks. Although operating in numerous communities in New York State and Pennsylvania, the Company is still dependent on the general economic conditions of these states and the local economic conditions of the communities within those states in which the Company does business. The suspension of business activities in our market area has led to a significant increase in unemployment rates and has had a negative effect on our customers. There continues to be a great deal of uncertainty regarding how long those conditions will continue to exist. As a result, the economic consequences of the pandemic on our market area generally and on the Company in particular continue to be difficult to quantify.

The Allowance for Credit Losses
 
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, also known as CECL. The below tables represents the allowance for credit losses calculated under the new accounting guidance as of June 30, 2020, and the prior period tables use the incurred loss methodology calculation used prior to adoption. The tables provide, as of the dates indicated, an allocation of the allowance for credit losses for inherent loan losses by type. The allocation is neither indicative of the specific amounts or the loan categories in which future charge-offs may occur, nor is it an indicator of future loss trends. The allocation of the allowance for credit losses to each category does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in any category.

As a result of the adoption of ASC 326, the Company recorded a net cumulative-effect adjustment reducing the allowance for credit losses by $2.5 million from $39.9 million at December 31, 2019, to $37.4 million at January 1, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the total allowance for credit losses was $52.1 million. The $14.7 million increase in the allowance at June 30, 2020, compared to January 1, 2020 was mainly due to a $14.9 million increase in the provision expense driven by changes in economic conditions and forecasts related to the impact of COVID-19, including forecasts of significantly slower economic growth and higher unemployment.

Asset quality metrics were generally favorable at June 30, 2020, with lower levels of nonperforming loans and leases compared to December 31, 2019. Nonperforming loans and leases were down $1.3 million or 4.0% from year end 2019 and represented 0.56% of total loans at June 30, 2020 compared to 0.64% at December 31, 2019. Loans internally-classified Special Mention or Substandard were up $2.5 million or 2.8% compared to December 31, 2019. The allowance for credit losses covered 172.62% of nonperforming loans and leases as of June 30, 2020, compared to 126.90% at December 31, 2019.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses totaled $52.1 million at June 30, 2020, which represented 0.96% of total loans, up from 0.81% at December 31, 2019, and 0.84% at June 30, 2019. The decrease in the allowance to total loans and leases ratio at June 30, 2020, from March 31, 2020 is largely due to the increase in loan balances, primarily due to the $465.6 million in PPP loans originated during the second quarter, for which no reserves have been allocated.

The first six months of 2019 included a $3.1 million write-down of one relationship in the commercial real estate portfolio. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans and leases were 0.05% at June 30, 2020, compared to 0.15% at June 30, 2019.

The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2020 was a negative provision of $348,000 compared to an expense of $601,000 for the same period in 2019. Provision expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $15.9 million, compared to $1.0 million for the same period in 2019. The first quarter of 2020 included provision expense of $16.3 million related to the impact of the economic shutdown related to COVID-19 on economic forecasts and other model assumptions relied upon by management in determining the allowance. Net recoveries for the three months ended June 30, 2020, were $26,000 compared to net charge-offs of $139,000 reported for the same period in 2019. Charge-offs for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2020 were $1.2 million compared to $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

 1 The December 31, 2019, and June 30, 2019 columns in the above table exclude $794,000, and $1.3 million, respectively, of acquired loans that were 90 days past due and accruing interest.  At December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, purchased credit-impaired ("PCI") loans were excluded from past due and non-accrual loans reported because they continued to earn interest income from the accretable yield at the pool level. The PCI loan pools are accounted for as PCD loans (on a loan level basis with a related allowance for credit losses) under the CECL standard adopted at January 1, 2020 and reported in the past due loans and non-accrual loans in the table above at June 30, 2020.
 
Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”), and foreclosed real estate/other real estate owned. Total nonperforming assets of $30.4 million at June 30, 2020 were down $1.4 million or 4.5% compared to December 31, 2019, and up $4.4 million or 17.0% compared to June 30, 2019. Nonperforming assets represented 0.40% of total assets at June 30, 2020, down from 0.47% at December 31, 2019, and up from 0.39% at June 30, 2019. The Company’s ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets continues to compare favorably to our peer group’s most recent ratio of 0.49% at March 31, 2020.

Loans are considered modified in a TDR when, due to a borrower’s financial difficulties, the Company makes a concession(s) to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider and the borrower could not obtain elsewhere. These modifications may include, among others, an extension of the term of the loan, and granting a period when interest-only payments can be made, with the principal payments made over the remaining term of the loan or at maturity. TDRs are included in the above table within the following categories: “loans 90 days past due and accruing”, “nonaccrual loans”, or “troubled debt restructurings not included above”. Loans in the latter category include loans that meet the definition of a TDR but are performing in accordance with the modified terms and therefore classified as accruing loans. At June 30, 2020, the Company had $8.5 million in TDRs, and of that total $1.5 million were reported as nonaccrual and $7.0 million were considered performing and included in the table above.

As previously noted, the Company participated in the SBA PPP. This program provides borrower guarantees for lenders, as well as loan forgiveness incentives for borrowers that utilize the loan proceeds to cover employee compensation-related expenses and certain other eligible business operating costs, all in accordance with the rules and regulations established by the SBA. The Company began accepting applications for PPP loans on April 3, 2020, and had funded approximately 2,997 loans totaling about $465.6 million as of June 30, 2020.

 In general, the Company places a loan on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days or more past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question, as well as when required by applicable regulations. Although in nonaccrual status, the Company may continue to receive payments on these loans. These
63


payments are generally recorded as a reduction to principal, and interest income is recorded only after principal recovery is reasonably assured. 

The ratio of the allowance to nonperforming loans and leases (loans past due 90 days and accruing, nonaccrual loans and restructured troubled debt) was 172.62% at June 30, 2020, compared to 126.9% at December 31, 2019, and 171.42% at June 30, 2019. The Company’s nonperforming loans and leases are mostly made up of collateral dependent impaired loans with limited exposure or loans that require limited specific reserves due to the level of collateral available with respect to these loans and/or previous charge-offs.
 
The Company, through its internal loan review function, identified 43 commercial relationships from the loan portfolio totaling $37.6 million at June 30, 2020, that were potential problem loans. At December 31, 2019, the Company had identified 41 relationships totaling $44.0 million in the loan portfolio that were potential problem loans. Of the 43 relationships at June 30, 2020, that were Substandard, there were 11 relationships that equaled or exceeded $1.0 million, which in aggregate totaled $29.2 million, the largest of which was $4.8 million. The Company continues to monitor these potential problem relationships; however, management cannot predict the extent to which continued weak economic conditions or other factors may further impact borrowers. These loans remain in a performing status due to a variety of factors, including payment history, the value of collateral supporting the credits, and personal or government guarantees. These factors, when considered in the aggregate, give management reason to believe that the current risk exposure on these loans does not warrant accounting for these loans as nonperforming. However, these loans do exhibit certain risk factors, which have the potential to cause them to become nonperforming. Accordingly, management's attention is focused on these credits, which are reviewed on at least a quarterly basis.

Capital
Total equity was $698.0 million at June 30, 2020, an increase of $35.0 million or 5.3% from December 31, 2019. The increase reflects growth in retained earnings and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive losses, partially offset by a decrease in additional paid-in capital resulting primarily from share repurchases.
 
Additional paid-in capital decreased by $3.2 million, from $338.5 million at December 31, 2019, to $335.3 million at June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Company's repurchase of 71,288 shares of its common stock with an aggregate purchase price of $5.6 million pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase plan, and $506,000 related to the exercise of stock options, and grants of restricted stock. This was partially offset by $2.3 million attributed to stock-based compensation and $680,000 related to shares issued in connection with the Company's dividend reinvestment program. The 71,288 shares repurchased were purchased in the first quarter of 2020; on March 19, 2020, following the announcement of the national emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company suspended the repurchase of shares under the Company's share repurchase program.

Retained earnings increased by $15.5 million from $370.5 million at December 31, 2019, to $386.0 million at June 30, 2020, mainly reflecting net income of $29.4 million for the year-to-date period, less dividends paid of $15.5 million and the net cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASU 2016-13 of $1.7 million. Accumulated other comprehensive loss decreased from a net loss of $43.6 million at December 31, 2019, to a net loss of $21.0 million at June 30, 2020, reflecting a $21.5 million increase in unrealized gains on available-for-sale debt securities mainly due to changes in market rates and a $1.0 million decrease related to post-retirement benefit plans.

In connection with the effectiveness of the Basel III Capital Rules on January 1, 2015, the Company elected to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. Accordingly, amounts reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/loss related to net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale debt securities and the funded status of the Company’s defined benefit post-retirement benefit plans do not increase or reduce regulatory capital and are not included in the calculation of risk-based capital and leverage ratios.
 
Cash dividends paid in the first six months of 2020 totaled approximately $15.5 million or $1.04 per common share, representing 52.9% of year to date 2020 earnings. Dividends per common share of $1.04, represents a 4.0% increase over cash dividend of $1.00 per common share paid in the first six months of 2019.
 
The Company and its subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by Federal bank regulatory 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 adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operation and financial condition. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action (PCA), banks must meet specific guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications of the
64


Company and its subsidiary banks are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators concerning components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the maintenance of minimum amounts and ratios of common equity Tier 1 capital, Total capital and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes that the Company and its subsidiary banks meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

In addition to setting higher minimum capital ratios, the Basel III Capital Rules introduced a capital conservation buffer, which must be added to each of the minimum capital ratios and is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. The capital conservation buffer was phased-in over a three year period that began on January 1, 2016, and was fully phased-in on January 1, 2019 at 2.5%.

The following table provides a summary of the Company’s capital ratios as of June 30, 2020: 
REGULATORY CAPITAL ANALYSIS

Tier 1 Capital (to average assets)$640,040  8.79 %$291,148  4.00 %$363,935  5.00 %
 
As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s capital ratios exceeded the minimum required capital ratios plus the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer, and the minimum required capital ratios for well capitalized institutions. The capital levels required to be considered well capitalized, presented in the above table, are based upon prompt corrective action regulations, as amended to reflect the changes under Basel III Capital Rules.

Total capital as a percent of risk weighted assets increased to 14.0% at June 30, 2020, compared with 13.5% as of December 31, 2019. Tier 1 capital as a percent of risk weighted assets increased from 12.7% at the end of 2019 to 12.9% as of June 30, 2020. Tier 1 capital as a percent of average assets was 8.8% at June 30, 2020, which is down from 9.6% at December 31, 2019. The Tier 1 capital to average assets ratio at June 30, 2020 was negatively impacted by $465.6 million of PPP loans originated in the second quarter of 2020. Common equity Tier 1 capital was 12.5% at the end of the second quarter of 2020, up from 12.3% at the end of 2019.

As of June 30, 2020, the capital ratios for the Company’s subsidiary banks also exceeded the minimum required capital ratios plus the required conservation buffer, the minimum required capital ratios plus the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer, and the minimum required capital ratios for well capitalized institutions.

In the first quarter of 2020, U.S. Federal regulatory authorities issued an interim final rule that provides banking organizations that adopt CECL during the 2020 calendar year with the option to delay for two years the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital relative to regulatory capital determined under the prior incurred loss methodology, followed by a three-year transition period to phase out the aggregate amount of the capital benefit provided during the initial two-year delay (i.e., a five-year transition in total). In connection with our adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, we have elected to utilize the five-year CECL transition.
 
Deposits and Other Liabilities
Total deposits of $6.4 billion at June 30, 2020 were up $1.2 billion or 22.3% from December 31, 2019. The increase from year-end 2019 was primarily in non-interest bearing deposits, money market and savings balances and time deposits, which were up $461.7 million or 31.7%, $678.8 million or 22.0% and $24.2 million or 3.6% respectively from year-end 2019. Deposit balances benefited from the $465.6 million of PPP loan originations during the second quarter of 2020, the majority of which were deposited in Tompkins checking accounts. The growth also included $295.0 million of short-term brokered deposits. In April 2020, the Company obtained these short-term brokered deposits and actively increased liquid assets to further strengthen the Company's liquidity position in order to guard against the economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
65


The most significant source of funding for the Company is core deposits. The Company defines core deposits as total deposits less time deposits of $250,000 or more, brokered deposits, municipal money market deposits, and reciprocal deposit relationships with municipalities. Core deposits grew by $800.1 million to $5.1 billion at June 30, 2020, from year-end 2019. Core deposits represented 79.8% of total deposits at June 30, 2020, compared to 82.3% of total deposits at December 31, 2019. Core deposit balances benefited from the $456.6 million of PPP loan originations during the second quarter of 2020. The majority of these funds were deposited into the borrowers' accounts at Tompkins.
 
The Company uses both retail and wholesale repurchase agreements. Retail repurchase agreements are arrangements with local customers of the Company, in which the Company agrees to sell securities to the customer with an agreement to repurchase those securities at a specified later date. Retail repurchase agreements totaled $50.9 million at June 30, 2020, and $60.3 million at December 31, 2019. Management generally views local repurchase agreements as an alternative to large time deposits.
 
The Company’s other borrowings totaled $325.0 million at June 30, 2020, down $333.1 million or 50.6% from $658.1 million at December 31, 2019. The decrease in borrowings was due to the seasonal growth in public deposits, core deposit growth and an increase in brokered deposits from year-end. Borrowings at June 30, 2020 included $325.0 million of FHLB term advances. Borrowings at year-end 2019 included $239.1 million in overnight advances from FHLB, $415.0 million of FHLB term advances, and a $4.0 million advance from a bank. Of the $325.0 million in FHLB term advances at June 30, 2020, $255.0 million is due in over one year.
 
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had not experienced any significant impact to our liquidity or funding capabilities as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As previously noted, the Company participated in the SBA's PPP program. The Company began accepting applications for PPP loans on April 3, 2020, and had funded approximately 2,997 loans totaling about $465.6 million as of June 30, 2020. The majority of the PPP loan proceeds were deposited into accounts at Tompkins, which contributed to the deposit growth in the quarter. In April 2020, the Company obtained $295.0 million of short-term brokered deposits and actively increased liquid assets to further strengthen the Company's position so that the Company can continue to guard against the economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has a long-standing liquidity plan in place that is designed to ensure that appropriate liquidity resources are available to fund the balance sheet. Additionally, given the uncertainties related to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on liquidity, the Company has confirmed the availability of funds at the FHLB of NY and FHLB of Pittsburgh, completed actions required to activate participation in the Federal Reserve Bank PPP lending facility, and confirmed availability of Federal Fund lines with correspondent bank partners.

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of adequate funding sources to satisfy the demand for credit, deposit withdrawals, and business investment opportunities. The Company’s large, stable core deposit base and strong capital position are the foundation for the Company’s liquidity position. The Company uses a variety of resources to meet its liquidity needs, which include deposits, cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, cash flow from lending and investing activities, repurchase agreements, and borrowings. The Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee monitors asset and liability positions of the Company’s subsidiary banks individually and on a combined basis. The Committee reviews periodic reports on liquidity and interest rate sensitivity positions. Comparisons with industry and peer groups are also monitored. The Company’s strong reputation in the communities it serves, along with its strong financial condition, provides access to numerous sources of liquidity as described below. Management believes these diverse liquidity sources provide sufficient means to meet all demands on the Company’s liquidity that are reasonably likely to occur.
 
Core deposits, discussed above under “Deposits and Other Liabilities”, are a primary and low cost funding source obtained primarily through the Company’s branch network. In addition to core deposits, the Company uses non-core funding sources to support asset growth. These non-core funding sources include time deposits of $250,000 or more, brokered time deposits, municipal money market deposits, reciprocal deposits, bank borrowings, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and overnight and term advances from the FHLB. Rates and terms are the primary determinants of the mix of these funding sources. Non-core funding sources of $1.7 billion at June 30, 2020 increased $21.9 million or 1.3% as compared to year-end 2019. Increases in brokered money market deposits and municipal money market deposits more than offset the decrease in overnight borrowings with the FHLB. Non-core funding sources, as a percentage of total liabilities, were 24.2% at June 30, 2020, compared to 27.1% at December 31, 2019. 
 
Non-core funding sources may require securities to be pledged against the underlying liability. Securities held at fair value were $1.1 billion at June 30, 2020 and $1.2 billion December 31, 2019, and were either pledged or sold under agreements to repurchase. Pledged securities represented 82.2% of total securities at June 30, 2020, compared to 89.7% of total securities at December 31, 2019.
 
66


Cash and cash equivalents totaled $479.1 million as of June 30, 2020 which increased from $138.0 million at December 31, 2019. Short-term investments, consisting of securities due in one year or less, decreased from $108.1 million at December 31, 2019, to $50.4 million on June 30, 2020.
 
Cash flow from the loan and investment portfolios provides a significant source of liquidity. These assets may have stated maturities in excess of one year, but have monthly principal reductions. Total mortgage-backed securities, at fair value, were $930.5 million at June 30, 2020 compared with $824.0 million at December 31, 2019. Outstanding principal balances of residential mortgage loans, consumer loans, and leases totaled approximately $1.5 billion at June 30, 2020, up $26.7 million or 1.8% compared with year-end 2019. Aggregate amortization from monthly payments on these assets provides significant additional cash flow to the Company.

The Company's liquidity is enhanced by ready access to national and regional wholesale funding sources including Federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements, brokered certificates of deposit, and FHLB advances. Through its subsidiary banks, the Company has borrowing relationships with the FHLB and correspondent banks, which provide secured and unsecured borrowing capacity. At June 30, 2020, the unused borrowing capacity on established lines with the FHLB was $1.7 billion.

As members of the FHLB, the Company’s subsidiary banks can use certain unencumbered mortgage-related assets and securities to secure additional borrowings from the FHLB. At June 30, 2020, total unencumbered residential mortgage loans and securities were $1.4 billion. Additional assets may also qualify as collateral for FHLB advances upon approval of the FHLB.

Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 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 and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. Upon adoption, a cumulative effect adjustment for the change in the allowance for credit losses was recognized in retained earnings.  The cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, net of taxes, is comprised of the impact to the allowance for credit losses on outstanding loans and leases and the impact to the liability for off-balance sheet commitments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. Results for the periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable US GAAP. The Company recorded a net increase to retained earnings of $1.7 million, upon adoption. The transition adjustment includes a decrease in the allowance for credit losses on loans of $2.5 million, and an increase in the allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures of $0.4 million, net of the corresponding decrease in deferred tax assets of $0.4 million.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the prospective transition approach for financial assets purchased with credit deterioration (“PCD”) that were previously classified as purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) and accounted for under ASC 310-30. In accordance with the standard, the Company did not reassess whether PCI assets met the criteria of PCD assets as of the date of adoption. The remaining discount on the PCD assets was determined to be related to noncredit factors and will be accreted into interest income on a level-yield method over the life of the loans.

ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test which required entities to compute the implied fair value of goodwill. Under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. The amendments in this update remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, modify/clarify the specific requirements of certain disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-13 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020, and did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) - Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract.” ASU 2018-15 clarifies certain aspects of ASU 2015-05, “Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement,” which was issued in April 2015. Specifically, ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). ASU 2018-15 does not affect the accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020, and did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Pending Adoption

ASU 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20).” ASU 2018-14 amends and modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other post-retirement plans.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
 
Interest rate risk is the primary market risk category associated with the Company’s operations. Interest rate risk refers to the volatility of earnings caused by changes in interest rates. The Company manages interest rate risk using income simulation to measure interest rate risk inherent in its on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet financial instruments at a given point in time. The simulation models are used to estimate the potential effect of interest rate shifts on net interest income for future periods. Each quarter, the Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee reviews the simulation results to determine whether the exposure of net interest income to changes in interest rates remains within levels approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Committee also considers strategies to manage this exposure and incorporates these strategies into the investment and funding decisions of the Company. The Company does not currently use derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, to manage its interest rate risk exposure, but may consider such instruments in the future.
 
The Company’s Board of Directors has set a policy that interest rate risk exposure will remain within a range whereby net interest income will not decline by more than 10% in one year as a result of a 100 basis point parallel change in rates. Based upon the simulation analysis performed as of May 31, 2020, a 200 basis point parallel upward change in interest rates over a one-year time frame would result in a one-year decrease in net interest income from the base case of approximately 3.8%, while a 100 basis point parallel decline in interest rates over a one-year period would result in an increase in one-year net interest income from the base case of 0.3%. The simulation assumes no balance sheet growth and no management action to address balance sheet mismatches.
 
The decrease in net interest income in the rising rate scenario is a result of the balance sheet showing a more liability sensitive position over a one year time horizon. As such, in the short-term net interest income is expected to trend slightly below the base assumption, as upward adjustments to rate sensitive deposits and short-term funding outpace increases to asset yields which are concentrated in intermediate to longer-term products. As intermediate and longer-term assets continue to reprice/adjust into higher rate environment and funding costs stabilize, net interest income is expected to trend upwards.

The down 100 basis point scenario increases net income slightly in the first year as a result of the Company's assets repricing downward to a lesser degree than the rates on the Company's interest bearing liabilities, mainly deposits and overnight borrowings. Rates on savings and money market accounts have moved down in the last 3 months, approaching historically low levels allowing little interest expense relief in the first year of a declining rate scenario. In addition, the model assumes that prepayments accelerate in the down interest rate environment resulting in additional pressure on asset yields as proceeds are reinvested at lower rates.

The most recent simulation of a base case scenario, which assumes interest rates remain unchanged from the date of the simulation, reflects a net interest margin that is declining slightly over the next 12 to 18 months.

Although the simulation model is useful in identifying potential exposure to interest rate movements, actual results may differ from those modeled as the repricing, maturity, and prepayment characteristics of financial instruments may change to a different degree than modeled. In addition, the model does not reflect actions that management may employ to manage the Company’s interest rate risk exposure. The Company’s current liquidity profile, capital position, and growth prospects, offer a level of flexibility for management to take actions that could offset some of the negative effects of unfavorable movements in interest rates. Management believes the current exposure to changes in interest rates is not significant in relation to the earnings and capital strength of the Company.

In addition to the simulation analysis, management uses an interest rate gap measure. The table below is a Condensed Static Gap Report, which illustrates the anticipated repricing intervals of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2020. The Company’s one-year net interest rate gap was a positive $18,000 or 0.24% of total assets at June 30, 2020, compared with a negative $173.6 million or 2.58% of total assets at December 31, 2019. A positive gap position exists when the amount of interest-bearing assets maturing or repricing exceeds the amount of interest-earning liabilities maturing or repricing within a particular time period. This analysis suggests that the Company’s net interest income is equally at risk in both an increasing and decreasing rate environment over the next 12 months. An interest rate gap measure could be significantly affected by external factors such as a rise or decline in interest rates, loan or securities prepayments, and deposit withdrawals.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings 
The Company is subject to various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of conducting business. As of June 30, 2020, management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of litigation pending or threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries will be material to the Company's consolidated financial position. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with such legal proceedings. Although the Company does not believe that the outcome of pending litigation will be material to the Company's consolidated financial position, it cannot rule out the possibility that such outcomes will be material to the consolidated results of operations for a particular reporting period in the future.
 
Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed under Item 1A. of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019:
 
The economic impact of the novel COVID-19 outbreak has had, and likely will continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations.

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported in China, and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic. On March 12, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States a national emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant economic stress in the United States and in the geographic markets that we serve. While the transmission rates of COVID-19 have slowed and business and travel restrictions have partially eased within the primary geographic markets we serve, national rates of transmission have continued to climb, and we may experience a resurgence in our geographic market. The extent to which COVID-19 and measures taken in response thereto impact our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict. COVID-19, and governmental/regulatory measures take in response

thereto, has had and is likely to continue to have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, COVID-19 is likely to heighten or make more likely to occur many of our known risks, which are previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

The COVID-19 pandemic, and the actions taken by federal, state and local authorities in response thereto, have resulted, and will likely continue to result in, an unprecedented slow-down in economic activity, including the following:

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the national unemployment rate and unemployment rates in our geographic markets have dramatically increased and are expected to remain elevated for the foreseeable future.
Stock markets generally, and bank stocks in particular, have significantly fluctuated in value.
The Federal Reserve Board has reduced the benchmark fed funds rate to a target range of 0% to 0.25%, and the yields on 10 and 30-year treasury notes remain at historic lows.
Various state governments and federal agencies are requiring lenders to provide forbearance and other relief to borrowers (e.g., waiving late payment and other fees). The federal banking agencies have recently issued guidance providing relief from reporting loan classifications due to modifications related to the COVID-19 outbreak
Business and travel restrictions, including within the geographic markets that we serve.

Certain industries have been particularly hard-hit, including the travel and hospitality industry, the restaurant industry and the retail industry. Finally, the spread of the coronavirus has caused us to modify our business practices, including employee travel, employee work locations, and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences. We may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interest of our employees, customers and business partners.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the elated 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 have declined and may continue to decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income;
if the economy is unable to fully reopen, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, 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 credit losses to increase;
we may face a decline in the value of our goodwill and other intangible assets;
our allowance for credit losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties beyond forbearance periods, which will adversely affect our net income;
our profitability could be negatively impacted if borrowers repay deferred amounts and/or resume scheduled payments under terms which are less profitable than originally agreed, all of which may be further impacted by new, changed, or extended government/regulatory expectations or requirements;
the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us;
the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate may cause the yield on our assets to decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and thereby reducing our net income;
a material decrease in net income or a net loss over several quarters could result in a further decrease in the rate of our quarterly cash dividend;
our wealth management and trust revenues may decline with continuing market turmoil;
a prolonged weakness in economic conditions resulting in a reduction of future projected earnings could result in our recording a valuation allowance against our current outstanding deferred tax assets;
our cybersecurity and fraud risks may increase due to our transition to a remote work environment;
the unavailability of a third party vendor, whom we rely on for certain services, could cause a lapse in a critical service; and
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs.

Moreover, our future success and profitability substantially depends on the management skills of our executive officers and directors, many of whom have held officer and director positions with us for many years. The unanticipated loss or unavailability of key employees due to the outbreak could harm our ability to operate our business or execute our business strategy. We may not be successful in finding and integrating suitable successors in the event of key employee loss or unavailability.

72


Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and the successfulness of efforts to abate it; the continued effectiveness of our business continuity plan; the direct and indirect impact of the pandemic on our employees, customers, clients, counterparties and service providers, as well as other market participants; and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic, including when, how and to what extent the economy may be reopened.

Any one or a combination of the factors identified above could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations and prospects.
