Village Bank and Trust Financial Corp. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Principles of presentation

 

Village Bank and Trust Financial Corp. (the “Company”) is the holding company of Village Bank (the “Bank”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and the Bank’s subsidiary, Village Bank Mortgage Corporation. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2020. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes to financial statements that are presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Note 2 - Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheets and statements of income for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change include the determination of the allowance for loan losses and its related provision including impaired loans and troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), and the estimate of the fair value of assets held for sale.

 

Note 3 - Earnings per common share

 

The following table presents the basic and diluted earnings per common share computation (in thousands, except share and per share data):

 

   Three Months Ended June 30,   Six Months Ended June 30, 
   2020   2019   2020   2019 
Numerator                
Net income - basic and diluted  $2,335   $637   $3,233   $1,446 
                     
Denominator                    
Weighted average shares outstanding - basic   1,454    1,439    1,454    1,433 
Dilutive effect of common stock options   -    -    -    - 
                     
Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted   1,454    1,439    1,454    1,433 
                     
Earnings per share - basic  $1.61   $0.44   $2.22   $1.01 
Earnings per share - diluted  $1.61   $0.44   $2.22   $1.01

Applicable guidance requires that outstanding, unvested share-based payment awards that contain voting rights and rights to nonforfeitable dividends participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders. Accordingly, the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share includes unvested shares of the Company’s outstanding restricted common stock.

 

At June 30, 2020 the vesting of 4,155 of the unvested restricted units included in Note 10 “Stock incentive plan” was dependent upon meeting certain performance criteria. As of June 30, 2020, it was indeterminable whether these unvested restricted units would vest and as such the underlying shares were excluded from common shares issued and outstanding at such date and were not included in the computation of earnings per share for such period.

 

As a result of the Company’s largest shareholder’s ownership exceeding 50% during the second quarter of 2019 all non-vested restricted stock awards and units outstanding at that time vested during the period.

 

Outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock were considered in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the periods presented. Stock options for 653 and 575 shares were not included in computing diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and stock options for 536 and 571 shares were not included in computing diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, because their effects were anti-dilutive. Additionally, the impact of the warrant to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with the Company’s participation in the Troubled Asset Relief Program is not included for the period ended June 30, 2019, as the warrant expired on May 1, 2019.

The Company sold approximately $7,900,000 and $6,500,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, of investment securities available for sale at a net gain of $12,000 in 2020 and $101,000 in 2019. The sales of these securities, which had fixed interest rates, allowed the Company to decrease its exposure to upward movement in interest rates that would result in unrealized losses being recognized in shareholders’ equity.

 

Investment securities available for sale that have an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are detailed below (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2020, there was one investment available for sale of $407,000 that had been in a continuous loss position for more than 12 months. This security had an unrealized loss of $93,000.

 

All of the unrealized losses are attributable to movements in interest rates and not to credit deterioration. Currently, the Company believes that it is probable that the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the investments. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not to credit quality, and because it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other than temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.

 

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities available for sale as of June 30, 2020, by contractual maturity, are as follows (in thousands):

 

   Amortized

The Bank had originated $184,478,000 in loans through the Small Business Administrations (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) as of June 30, 2020, which have provided essential funds to approximately 1,500 businesses and nonprofits and protected more than 20,000 jobs in our community. The processing fees earned on the PPP loans will help to support the Bank’s loan deferral program and potential credit losses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Below is a breakdown of PPP loans by loan size including SBA fees earned as of June 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

 

Loan Size  # of Loans   $ of Loans   $ SBA Fee 
< $350,000   1,403   $93,581   $4,426 
                 $350,000 - $2 million   94    67,795    1,853 
  > $2 million   6    23,102    184 
Total   1,503   $184,478   $6,463 

 

Loans pledged as collateral with the FHLB as part of their lending arrangement with the Company totaled $47,827,000 and $49,736,000 as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

 

Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due as long as the remaining recorded investment in the loan is deemed fully collectible. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

The Company assigns risk rating classifications to its loans. These risk ratings are divided into the following groups:

 

·Risk rated 1 to 4 loans are considered of sufficient quality to preclude an adverse rating. These assets generally are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the asset or underlying collateral;
·Risk rated 5 loans are defined as having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention;
·Risk rated 6 loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any; and
·Risk rated 7 loans have all the weaknesses inherent in substandard loans, with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans greater than 90 days past due are student loans that are guaranteed by the DOE which covers approximately 98% of the principal and interest. Accordingly, these loans will not be placed on nonaccrual status and are not considered to be impaired.

 

Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts when due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. Loans evaluated individually for impairment include non-performing loans, such as loans on non-accrual, loans past due by 90 days or more, restructured loans and other loans selected by management. The evaluations are based upon discounted expected cash flows or collateral valuations. If the evaluation shows that a loan is individually impaired, then a specific reserve is established for the amount of impairment. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of a similar nature and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a specific valuation allowance is allocated, if necessary, so that the loan is reported net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured, in which case interest is recognized on a cash basis. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

Included in impaired loans are loans classified as TDRs. A modification of a loan’s terms constitutes a TDR if the creditor grants a concession to the borrower for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties that it would not otherwise consider. For loans classified as impaired TDRs, the Company further evaluates the loans as performing or nonaccrual. To restore a nonaccrual loan that has been formally restructured in a TDR to accrual status, we perform a current, well documented credit analysis supporting a return to accrual status based on the borrower’s financial condition and prospects for repayment under the revised terms. Otherwise, the TDR must remain in nonaccrual status. The analysis considers the borrower’s sustained historical repayment performance for a reasonable period to the return-to-accrual date, but may take into account payments made for a reasonable period prior to the restructuring if the payments are consistent with the modified terms. A sustained period of repayment performance generally would be a minimum of six months and would involve payments in the form of cash or cash equivalents.

An accruing loan that is modified in a TDR can remain in accrual status if, based on a current well-documented credit analysis, collection of principal and interest in accordance with the modified terms is reasonably assured, and the borrower has demonstrated sustained historical repayment performance for a reasonable period before modification. The following is a summary of performing and nonaccrual TDRs and the related specific valuation allowance by portfolio segment for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands).

The amount of the loan loss provision (recovery) is determined by an evaluation of the level of loans outstanding, the level of nonperforming loans, historical loan loss experience, delinquency trends, underlying collateral values, the amount of actual losses charged to the reserve in a given period and assessment of present and anticipated economic conditions.

 

The level of the allowance reflects changes in the size of the portfolio or in any of its components as well as management’s continuing evaluation of industry concentrations, specific credit risk, loan loss experience, current loan portfolio quality, and present economic, political and regulatory conditions. Portions of the allowance may be allocated for specific credits; however, the entire allowance is available for any credit that, in management’s judgement, should be charged off. While management utilizes its best judgement and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond the Company’s control, including the performance of the Company’s loan portfolio, the economy, changes in interest rates and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications.

 

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $700,000 for the six month period ended June 30 2020. The provision for loan losses was driven primarily by an increase in the qualitative factors as a result of the continued economic uncertainty surrounding COVID-19. The increase in the qualitative factors due to COVID-19 were a result of deterioration in local economic factors such as the higher levels of unemployment and the potential impact of elevated loan deferral requests. The Company believes the current level of allowance for loan loss reserves are adequate to cover anticipated losses. However, the full economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is currently unknown and the Company will continue to monitor our loan portfolio for loss indicators which may have the potential for further significant provisions for loan losses through 2020 and beyond. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $135,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019 because of an increase in the specific reserves associated with a relationship evaluated individually for impairment. The Company did not record a provision for loan losses for the six month period ended June 30, 2019 because of minimal net charge-offs, no significant changes in qualitative factors and stable asset quality.

 

The allowance for loan losses at each of the periods presented includes an amount that could not be identified to individual types of loans referred to as the unallocated portion of the allowance. We recognize the inherent imprecision in estimates of losses due to various uncertainties and the variability related to the factors used in calculation of the allowance. The allowance for loan losses included an unallocated portion of approximately $359,000, $24,000, and $176,000 at June 30, 2020, December 31, 2019, and June 30, 2019, respectively.

Note 7 – Borrowings

 

The Company uses both short-term and long-term borrowings to supplement deposits when they are available at a lower overall cost to the Company or they can be invested at a positive rate of return.

 

As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, the Bank is required to own capital stock in the FHLB and is authorized to apply for advances from the FHLB. The Company held $1,802,000 in FHLB stock at June 30, 2020 and $1,694,000 at December 31, 2019, which is held at cost. Each FHLB credit program has its own interest rate, which may be fixed or variable, and range of maturities. The FHLB may prescribe the acceptable uses to which the advances may be put, as well as on the size of the advances and repayment provisions. The FHLB borrowings are secured by the pledge of commercial, 1-4 family residential loans and investment securities. The Company had FHLB advances of $31,000,000 and $29,000,000 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, maturing through 2023.

 

The Company uses federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements for short-term borrowing needs. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are classified as borrowings and generally mature within one to four days from the transaction date. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. The Company may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. The carrying value of these short term borrowing agreements was $5,317,000 at December 31, 2019. There were no borrowings against the lines at June 30, 2020.

 

We also have access to the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”) of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”), from which applications for borrowings can be made. The Federal Reserve requires that PPP loans be pledged to secure any advances from the PPPLF. The Company currently has $45,120,000 in borrowings against the PPPLF and an unused borrowing capacity of $139,358,000 based on unpledged PPP loans available to secure any future borrowings. The Company has access to this facility until September 30, 2020 at which time the Federal Reserve will no longer take requests for borrowings.

 

The Company’s unused lines of credit for future borrowings total approximately $48 million at June 30, 2020, which consists of $5.3 million available from the FHLB, $10 million on revolving bank line of credit, $7.8 million under secured federal funds agreements with third party financial institutions, and $25 million in repurchase lines of credit with third party financial institutions. Additional loans and securities are available that can be pledged as collateral for future borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond or the FHLB above the current lendable collateral value.

Note 8 – Trust preferred securities

 

During the first quarter of 2005, Southern Community Financial Capital Trust I, a wholly-owned unconsolidated subsidiary of the Company, was formed for the purpose of issuing redeemable securities. On February 24, 2005, $5.2 million of Trust Preferred Capital Notes were issued through a pooled underwriting. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate of interest (three-month LIBOR plus 2.15%) which adjusts, and is payable, quarterly. The interest rate at June 30, 2020 was 2.46%. The securities were redeemable at par beginning on March 15, 2010 and each quarter after such date until the securities mature on March 15, 2035. No amounts have been redeemed at June 30, 2020 and there are no plans to do so. The principal asset of the Trust is $5.2 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the Trust Preferred Capital Notes.

 

During the third quarter of 2007, Village Financial Statutory Trust II, a wholly-owned unconsolidated subsidiary of the Company, was formed for the purpose of issuing redeemable securities. On September 20, 2007, $3.6 million of Trust Preferred Capital Notes were issued through a pooled underwriting. The securities have LIBOR-indexed floating rate of interest (three-month LIBOR plus 1.4%) which adjusts, and is also payable, quarterly. The interest rate at June 30, 2020 was 1.71%. The securities may be redeemed at par at any time commencing in December 2012 until the securities mature in 2037. No amounts have been redeemed at June 30, 2020 and there are no plans to do so. The principal asset of the Trust is $3.6 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the Trust Preferred Capital Notes.

 

The Trust Preferred Capital Notes may be included in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital adequacy determination purposes up to 25% of Tier 1 capital after its inclusion. The portion of the Trust Preferred Capital Notes not considered as Tier 1 capital may be included in Tier 2 capital.

 

The obligations of the Company with respect to the issuance of the Trust Preferred Capital Notes constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the Trust’s obligations with respect to the Trust Preferred Capital Notes. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company may elect from time to time to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, which would result in a deferral of distribution payments on the related Trust Preferred Capital Notes and require a deferral of common dividends. The Company is current on these interest payments.

 

Note 9 – Subordinated Debt

 

On March 21, 2018, the Company issued $5,700,000 of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due March 31, 2028 in a private placement. The Company received $5,539,000 in net proceeds after deducting issuance costs. The subordinated notes accrue interest at a fixed rate of 6.50% for the first five years until March 31, 2023; thereafter, the subordinated notes will accrue interest at an annual floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 3.73% until maturity or early redemption. The Company may redeem the subordinated notes in whole or in part, on or after March 31, 2023. The subordinated notes are unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness, whether secured or unsecured, including claims of depositors and general creditors, and rank equally in right of payment with any unsecured, subordinated indebtedness that the Company may incur in the future. The carrying value of the notes totaled $5,612,000 and $5,595,000 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Note 10 – Stock incentive plan

 

In accordance with accounting standards, the Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award rather than disclosed in the financial statements.

 

The following table summarizes options outstanding under the Company’s stock incentive plans at the indicated dates:

During the first quarter of 2020, we granted certain officers 750 time-based restricted shares of common stock with a weighted average fair market value of $42.99 per share on the date of grant. These restricted stock awards vest ratably over a three-year period provided the officer is employed with the Company on the applicable vesting date.

 

The total number of shares underlying non-vested restricted stock was 13,060 at June 30, 2020. There were no non-vested restricted stock awards outstanding as of June 30, 2019. The fair value of the stock is based on the grant date of the award and the expense is recognized over the vesting period. Unamortized stock-based compensation related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the stock incentive plan as of June 30, 2020 was $271,600. As of June 30, 2020, the time based unrecognized compensation expense of $211,738 is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.07 years. There were no forfeitures for the period ended June 30, 2020. For the period ended June 30, 2019 there were forfeitures of 8,074 shares of restricted stock awards.

 

During the second quarter of 2019, the Company’s largest shareholder’s ownership exceeded 50% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, which triggered change in control provisions included in the Company’s stock incentive plans. The award agreements provided for the acceleration of the vesting of restricted stock awards and units in the event of a change in control, with the restricted stock units vesting at the maximum potential value of the awards.

Stock-based compensation expense was approximately $129,000 and $374,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Note 11 – Fair value

 

The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on the requirements established in ASC 820: Fair Value Measurements, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP and requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 defines fair value as the exit price, the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date under current market conditions.

 

ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair values hierarchy is as follows:

 

Level 1 Inputs — Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

 

Level 2 Inputs — Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 Inputs — Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

The Company used the following methods to determine the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

 

Securities: Fair values for securities available-for-sale are obtained from an independent pricing service. The prices are not adjusted. The independent pricing service uses industry-standard models to price U.S. Government agency obligations and mortgage backed securities that consider various assumptions, including time value, yield curves, volatility factors, prepayment speeds, default rates, loss severity, current market and contractual prices for the underlying financial instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Securities of obligations of state and political subdivisions are valued using a type of matrix, or grid, pricing in which securities are benchmarked against the treasury rate based on credit rating. Substantially all assumptions used by the independent pricing service are observable in the marketplace, can be derived from observable data, or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace (Levels 1 and 2). If the inputs used to provide the evaluation for certain securities are unobservable and/or there is little, if any, market activity, then the security would fall to the lowest level of the hierarchy (Level 3).

 

26

 

 

Impaired loans: The fair values of impaired loans are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans on a nonrecurring basis. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the Company’s collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the property is more than two years old, then a Level 3 valuation is considered to measure the fair value. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and account receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

Loans held for sale: During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to begin using fair value accounting for its entire portfolio of loans held for sale in accordance with ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. Fair value of the Company's loans held for sale is based on observable market prices for similar instruments traded in the secondary mortgage loan markets in which the Company conducts business. The Company's portfolio of loans held for sale is classified as Level 2. At December 31, 2019, these loans were carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value on an aggregate basis as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded within mortgage banking income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

Derivative asset – IRLCs: Beginning with the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognizes IRLCs at fair value based on the price of the underlying loans obtained from an investor for loans that will be delivered on a best efforts basis while taking into consideration the probability that the rate lock commitments will close. All of the Company's IRLCs are classified as Level 2. The fair value of interest rate lock commitments was considered immaterial at December 31, 2019.

 

Derivative asset/liability – forward sale commitments: During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to begin using fair value accounting for its forward sales commitments related to IRLCs and LHFS. Best efforts sale commitments are entered into for loans intended for sale in the secondary market at the time the borrower commitment is made. The best efforts commitments are valued using the committed price to the counter-party against the current market price of the interest rate lock commitment or mortgage loan held for sale. All of the Company’s forward sale commitments are classified as Level 2.

 

Other Real Estate Owned: OREO assets are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequently, OREO assets are carried at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 3.

 

Assets held for sale: Assets held for sale were transferred from premises and equipment at the lower of cost less accumulated depreciation or fair value at the date of transfer. The Company periodically evaluates the value of assets held for sale and records an impairment charge for any subsequent declines in fair value less selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the assets held for sale as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the asset held for sale as nonrecurring Level 3.

FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not required to be measured and reported at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company. In accordance with ASU 2016-01, the Company uses the exit price notion, rather than the entry price notion, in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Note 12 – Segment Reporting

 

The Company has two reportable segments: traditional commercial banking and mortgage banking. Revenues from commercial banking operations consist primarily of interest earned on loans and securities and fees from deposit services. Mortgage banking operating revenues consist principally of interest earned on mortgage loans held for sale, gains on sales of loans in the secondary mortgage market, and loan origination fee income.

 

The commercial banking segment provides the mortgage banking segment with the short-term funds needed to originate mortgage loans through a warehouse line of credit and charges the mortgage banking segment interest based on the commercial banking segment’s cost of funds. Additionally, the mortgage banking segment leases premises from the commercial banking segment. These transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process.

Note 13 – Shareholders’ Equity and Regulatory Matters

 

Preferred Stock

 

On May 1, 2009, as part of the Capital Purchase Program established by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, the Company sold (i) 14,738 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, par value $4.00 per share, having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “preferred stock”) and (ii) a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 499,029 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $4.43 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments, to the Treasury for an aggregate purchase price of $14,738,000 in cash. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company used the proceeds from a subordinated note issuance to redeem the remaining 5,027 outstanding shares of preferred stock plus accrued dividends of $56,554. The Warrant expired on May 1, 2019.

 

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

The following table presents the cumulative balances of the components of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of deferred taxes of $128,000 and $38,000 as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively (in thousands):

 

   June 30,   December 31,

Net unrealized gains on securities  $523   $186 
Net unrecognized losses on defined benefit plan   (40)   (44)
Total accumulated other comprehensive income  $483   $142 

 

Regulatory Matters

 

The Company meets the eligibility criteria of a small bank holding company in accordance with the Federal Reserve’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement (the “SBHC Policy Statement”). On August 28, 2018, the Federal Reserve issued an interim final rule required by the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act of 2018, which was signed into law on May 24, 2018 (the “EGRRCPA”), that expands the applicability of the SBHC Policy Statement to bank holding companies with total consolidated assets of less than $3 billion (up from the prior $1 billion threshold). Under the SBHC Policy Statement, qualifying bank holding companies, such as the Company, have additional flexibility in the amount of debt they can issue and are also exempt from the Basel III capital framework as outlined by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act (the “Basel III Capital Rules”). The SBHC Policy Statement does not apply to the Bank and the Bank must comply with the Basel III Capital Rules.

 

The Bank is required to comply with the capital adequacy standards established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”), in the case of the Company, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), in the case of the Bank. The Federal Reserve and the FDIC have adopted rules to implement the Basel III Capital Rules. The Basel III Capital Rules implement minimum capital ratios and establish risk weightings that are applied to many classes of assets held by community banks, including applying higher risk weightings to certain commercial real estate loans.

 

33

 

 

The Basel III Capital Rules require banks to comply with the following minimum capital ratios: (1) a ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” (effectively resulting in a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7%); (2) a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (effectively resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5%); (3) a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (effectively resulting in a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5%); and (4) a leverage ratio of 4%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to balance sheet exposures plus certain off-balance sheet exposures (computed as the average for each quarter of the month-end ratios for the quarter). The phase-in of the capital conservation buffer requirement began on January 1, 2016, at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, increasing by the same amount each year until it was fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress.  Banking organizations with a ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall. As of June 30, 2020, the Bank exceeded the minimum ratios under the Basel III Capital Rules.

 

The Bank must also comply with the capital requirements set forth in the “prompt corrective action” regulations pursuant to Section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act of 1950. To be well capitalized under these regulations, a bank must have the following minimum capital ratios: (1) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 6.5%; (2) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8.0%; (3) a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0%; and (4) a leverage ratio of at least 5.0%. As of June 30, 2020, the Bank exceeded the minimum ratios to be classified as well capitalized.

 

On September 17, 2019, the federal bank regulators issued a final rule required by the EGRRCPA that permits qualifying banks and bank holding companies that have less than $10 billion of assets, like the Company and the Bank, to elect to be subject to a 9% leverage ratio that would be applied using less complex leverage calculations (commonly referred to as the community bank leverage ratio or “CBLR”). Under the rule, which became effective January 1, 2020, banks and bank holding companies that opt into the CBLR framework and maintain a CBLR of greater than 9% would not be subject to other risk-based and leverage capital requirements under the Basel III Capital Rules and would be deemed to have met the well capitalized ratio requirements under the “prompt corrective action” framework. In April 2020, as required by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, which was passed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, federal bank regulators issued two interim final rules related to the CBLR framework. One interim final rule provides that, as of the second quarter of 2020, banking organizations with leverage ratios of 8% or greater (and that meet the other existing qualifying criteria) may elect to use the CBLR framework. It also establishes a two-quarter grace period for qualifying community banking organizations whose leverage ratios fall below the 8% CBLR requirement, so long as the banking organization maintains a leverage ratio of 7% or greater. The second interim final rule provides a transition from the temporary 8% CBLR requirement to a 9% CBLR requirement. It establishes a minimum CBLR of 8% for the second through fourth quarters of 2020, 8.5% for 2021, and 9% thereafter, and maintains a two-quarter grace period for qualifying community banking organizations whose leverage ratios fall no more than 100 basis points below the applicable CBLR requirement. The Bank elected not to opt into the CBLR framework as of June 30, 2020.

Note 14 – Commitments and contingencies

 

Off-balance-sheet risk – The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the financial statements. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement that the Company has in particular classes of instruments.

 

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, and to potential credit loss associated with letters of credit issued, is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for loans and other such on-balance sheet instruments.

 

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding the following approximate off-balance-sheet financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk (in thousands):

 

   June 30,   December 31, 
   2020   2019 
Undisbursed credit lines  $96,863   $83,366 
Commitments to extend or originate credit   41,497    15,722 
Standby letters of credit   6,394    6,732 
Total commitments to extend credit  $144,754   $105,820 

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. Historically, many commitments expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts shown in the above table are not necessarily indicative of future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, as deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies but may include personal or income-producing commercial real estate, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.

 

Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

 

Concentrations of credit risk – Generally, the Company’s loans, commitments to extend credit, and standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the Company’s market area. Although the Company is building a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its clients’ ability to honor contracts is reliant upon the economic stability of the Richmond, Virginia area, including the real estate markets in the area. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in Note 5. The distribution of commitments to extend credit approximates the distribution of loans outstanding.

Note 15 – Mortgage Banking and Derivatives

 

Loans held for sale. The Company, through the Bank’s mortgage banking subsidiary, the Mortgage Company, originates residential mortgage loans for sale in the secondary market. Residential mortgage loans held for sale are sold to the permanent investor with the mortgage servicing rights released. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to begin using fair value accounting for its entire portfolio of loans held for sale (“LHFS”) in accordance with ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. Fair value of the Company’s LHFS is based on observable market prices for the identical instruments traded in the secondary mortgage loan markets in which the Company conducts business and totaled $17.8 million as of June 30, 2020, of which $17.6 million is related to unpaid principal. The Company’s portfolio of LHFS is classified as Level 2. These loans were previously carried as of December 31, 2019 at the lower of cost or estimated fair value on an aggregate basis as determined by outstanding commitments from investors and totaled $12.7 million.

 

Interest Rate Lock Commitments and Forward Sales Commitments. The Company, through the Mortgage Company, enters into commitments to originate residential mortgage loans in which the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding, termed interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”). Such rate lock commitments on mortgage loans to be sold in the secondary market are considered to be derivatives. Upon entering into a commitment to originate a loan, the Company protects itself from changes in interest rates during the period prior to sale by requiring a firm purchase agreement from a permanent investor before a loan can be closed (forward sales commitment). The Company locks in the loan and rate with an investor and commits to deliver the loan if settlement occurs on a best efforts basis, thus limiting interest rate risk. Certain additional risks exist if the investor fails to meet its purchase obligation; however, based on historical performance and the size and nature of the investors the Company does not expect them to fail to meet their obligation.  The Company determines the fair value of IRLCs based on the price of the underlying loans obtained from an investor for loans that will be delivered on a best efforts basis while taking into consideration the probability that the rate lock commitments will close. The fair value of these derivative instruments is reported in “Other Assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2020, and totaled $174,000, with a notional amount of $41.5 million and total positions of 169. The fair value of IRLCs was considered immaterial at December 31, 2019. Changes in fair value are recorded as a component of mortgage banking income, net in the Consolidated Income Statement for the period ended June 30, 2020. The Company’s IRLCs are classified as Level 2. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, each IRLC and all LHFS were subject to a forward sales commitment on a best efforts basis.

 

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to begin using fair value accounting for its forward sales commitments related to IRLCs and LHFS under ASC 825-10-15-4(b). The fair value of forward sales commitments is reported in “Other Liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2020, and totaled $421,000, with a notional amount of $59.1 million and total positions of 250. The fair value of the forward sales commitments was considered immaterial at December 31, 2019.

 

Note 16 – Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The amendments in this ASU, among other things, require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The FASB has issued multiple updates to ASU 2016-13 as codified in Topic 326, including ASUs 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, 2019-11, 2020-02, and 2020-03. These ASUs have provided for various minor technical corrections and improvements to the codification as well as other transition matters. Smaller reporting companies who file with the SEC and all other entities who do not file with the SEC are required to apply the guidance for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2022. While the Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 to determine the potential impact the new standard will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, it has taken steps to prepare for the implementation when it becomes effective, such as forming an internal task force, gathering pertinent data, consulting with outside professionals, and evaluating its current IT systems. This guidance may result in material changes in the Company's accounting for credit losses on financial instruments.

 

37

 

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements by requiring that Level 3 fair value disclosures include the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop those fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. Certain disclosure requirements in Topic 820 were also removed or modified. ASU 2018-13 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Effective November 25, 2019, the SEC adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 119. SAB 119 updated portions of SEC interpretative guidance to align with FASB ASC 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” It covers topics including (1) measuring current expected credit losses; (2) development governance, and documentation of systematic methodology; (3) documenting the results of a systematic methodology; and (4) validating a systematic methodology.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” These amendments modify the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. Certain disclosure requirements have been deleted while the following disclosure requirements have been added: the weighted-average interest crediting rates for cash balance plans and other plans with promised interest crediting rates and an explanation of the reasons for significant gains and losses related to changes in the benefit obligation for the period. The amendments also clarify the disclosure requirements in paragraph 715-20-50-3, which state that the following information for defined benefit pension plans should be disclosed: The projected benefit obligation (“PBO”) and fair value of plan assets for plans with PBOs in excess of plan assets and the accumulated benefit obligation (“ABO”) and fair value of plan assets for plans with ABOs in excess of plan assets. The amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2018-14 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The ASU is expected to reduce cost and complexity related to the accounting for income taxes by removing specific exceptions to general principles in Topic 740 (eliminating the need for an organization to analyze whether certain exceptions apply in a given period) and improving financial statement preparers’ application of certain income tax-related guidance. This ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative to make narrow-scope simplifications and improvements to accounting standards through a series of short-term projects. For public business entities, such as the Company, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2019-12 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) – Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.” The ASU is based on a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force and is expected to increase comparability in accounting for these transactions. ASU 2020-01 amends ASU 2016-01, which made targeted improvements to accounting for financial instruments, including providing an entity the ability to measure certain equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Among other topics, the amendments in ASU 2020-01 clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting. For public business entities, such as the Company, the amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-01 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” These amendments provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has a team to assess ASU 2020-04 and its impact on the Company’s transition away from LIBOR for its loan and other financial instruments.

 

In March 2020 (Revised in April 2020), various regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve and the FDIC, (“the agencies”) issued an interagency statement on loan modifications and reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by COVID-19. The interagency statement was effective immediately and impacted accounting for loan modifications. Under ASC 310-40, “Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors,” a restructuring of debt constitutes a TDR if the creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. The agencies confirmed with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. As of June 30 2020, the Company had a total of $3,528,000 in loans past due greater than 30 days of which $3,388,000 were rehabilitated student loans which have a 98% guarantee by the DOE of principal and interest. For more financial data and other information about loan deferrals refer to section, “Response to COVID-19” under Item 2 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. This interagency guidance is expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial statements; however, this impact cannot be quantified at this time.

General

 

The Company’s primary source of earnings is net interest income, and its principal market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company is not able to predict market interest rate fluctuations and its asset/liability management strategy may not prevent interest rate changes from having a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

 

Although we endeavor to minimize the credit risk inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio, we must necessarily make various assumptions and judgments about the collectability of the loan portfolio based on our experience and evaluation of economic conditions. If such assumptions or judgments prove to be incorrect, the current allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover loan losses and additions to the allowance may be necessary, which would have a negative impact on net income.

 

Response to COVID-19

 

As the circumstances with the COVID-19 pandemic began to unfold, the Company rapidly mobilized over 80% of non-branch team members, went to drive-thru only at our branches with lobby access by appointment and actively began working with borrowers to defer loan payments for up to six months to allow the COVID-19 pandemic to stabilize and operations return to some level of normalcy. We believe that we are well positioned to weather the storm created by the COVID-19 pandemic and have built the balance sheet around a philosophy of prudent risk taking.

 

Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”)

 

The Company was successful in getting SBA PPP funds out to our community under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, which was designed to protect jobs and provide economic relief to small business that were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Through June 30, 2020, the Bank had garnered approval for approximately $185 million in PPP loans; however, the final funded amount of loans may be lower as some borrowers may not finalize the closing process. The PPP loans provided essential funds to over 1,500 businesses and nonprofits and protected more than 20,000 jobs in our community. The processing fees we earn on these loans will help to support our loan deferral program and reserve building associated with the crisis. We expect that our community leadership during the crisis and our PPP lending activity will open the door to a number of new commercial and consumer banking relationships.

Supporting customers through payment deferrals

 

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we began deferring payments for up to six months for impacted customers. Below is a breakdown of the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2020 showing the percentage of loans deferred in each category (dollars in thousands):

 

   June 30,   Deferred Loans(2) 
Loan Type  2020(1)   Amount   Number 
C&I + Owner occupied commercial real estate  $138,121    22.75%   9.66%
Nonowner occupied commercial real estate   129,943    30.88%   20.61%
Acquisition, development and construction   31,876    17.46%   1.53%
Total commercial loans   299,940    25.71%   10.08%
Consumer/Residential   88,863    7.53%   4.46%
Student   31,594    0.00%   0.00%
Other   3,118    0.74%   1.18%
Total loans  $423,515    19.80%   6.60%

 

(1) The table excludes PPP loans of $184,478 as the inclusion of these loans dilutes the impact of the deferral program.
(2) The SBA is providing a financial reprieve to small business during the COVID-19 pandemic.  The SBA will automatically pay the principal, interest, and fees on current 7(a) loans for a period of six months. These loans have been excluded from the above metrics.

 

Below is a breakdown of a portion of the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2020 organized by industry showing the percentage of loans deferred in each category (dollars in thousands):

 

   June 30,   Deferred Loans(1) 
Select Industries  2020   Amount   Number 
Hotels  $23,461    73.71%   62.50%

Medical and Child Care   11,844    35.13%   17.50%
Total  $76,794    43.41%   16.67%
 
(1) The SBA is providing a financial reprieve to small business during the COVID-19 pandemic.  The SBA will automatically pay the principal, interest, and fees on current 7(a) loans for a period of six months. These loans have been excluded from the above metrics.
(2) Loans within this group include business such as grocery, convenience stores, drug stores, consumer durables, apparel, and personal services.

 

Liquidity Risk Management

 

Over the past eight years, the Company has worked to fund the balance sheet with core deposits and reserve wholesale funding capacity for short periods of rapid loan growth or for crises such as the current economic environment.

 

During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, the Company took aggressive measures to bolster its liquidity to ensure it could meet customer demands in the event customers made significant deposit withdrawals and fully drew on lines of credit. The Company increased liquid assets by $20,155,000, or 30.12% from $66,904,000 at December 31, 2019 to $87,079,000 at March 31, 2020 which was partially accomplished by raising an additional $3,733,000 in internet listing service time deposits, $15,000,000 in FHLB Advances and $6,136,000 in brokered time deposits, which were at zero at December 31, 2019.

 

During the three month period ended June 30, 2020 the Company did not experience excessive demand for deposit withdrawals or advances under lines of credit; however, the Company did experience significant growth in low cost relationship deposits (i.e. noninterest bearing, NOW, money market and savings) of $111,930,000 from the period ended March 31, 2020. This growth in low cost relationship deposits was the result of the Company converting a significant portion on non-customer PPP loan applicants into customers and the migration of customer funds from time deposits into money market deposits during the three month period ended June 30, 2020. The Company acquired $45,120,000 in funds through the Federal Reserve’s Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”) during the three month period ended June 30, 2020 to support the origination of PPP loans.

 

42

 

 

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had on balance sheet liquid assets of $72,739,000 which the Company believes are sufficient to cover its current liquidity needs. However, if the need were to arise the Company could access liquidity of approximately $139,358,000 in PPPLF through September 30, 2020, it could pledge additional collateral to the FHLB in order to increase its available borrowing capacity up to 25% of assets, it could access the two federal funds lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling $15,000,000 for which there were no borrowings against the lines at June 30, 2020 and it could add additional funding through raising internet listing service and brokered time deposits.

 

Capital Risk Management

 

The Bank maintains a strong, well capitalized position with a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.85%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 12.85%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.69% and a leverage ratio of 8.61% as of June 30, 2020. The most significant risk to capital as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic is the risk of default within our loan portfolio and the potential loan losses as a result of those defaults. The Company has taken several steps to mitigate this risk to our capital by building a diversified loan portfolio over the years to be capable of sustaining through a crisis, working with our customers during this time to defer loan payments for up to six months to allow time for economic stabilization and participating in the SBA PPP loan program to help provide much needed funds to our borrowers and the community. While there will be pressure on capital levels as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company believes the actions we are taking will protect our capital levels and allow the Company to support all stakeholders through this difficult time.

 

While the long-term economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, we believe that our culture of disciplined and conservative risk taking across the balance sheet has the Company well positioned to not only carry through the current crisis but to be a pillar of support for our employees, our customers, and our communities.

 

Results of operations

 

The following presents management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition of the Company at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and the results of operations for the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The first six months of 2020 results of operations were negatively impacted by the deteriorating economic environment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in the Company recognizing $700,000 in provision for loan losses. For more financial data and other information about the provision for loan losses refer to section, “Provision for Loan Losses” under this Item 2 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

 

Summary

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had net income of $2,335,000, or $1.61 per fully diluted share, compared to net income of $637,000 or $0.44 per fully diluted share, for the same period in 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had net income of $3,233,000 or $2.22 per fully diluted share compared to net income of $1,446,000 or $1.01 per fully diluted share for the same period in 2019.

Net interest income

 

Net interest income, which represents the difference between interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the Company’s primary source of earnings. Net interest income can be affected by changes in market interest rates as well as the level and composition of assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity. Net interest spread is the difference between the average rate earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The net yield on interest-earning assets (“net interest margin”) is calculated by dividing tax equivalent net interest income by average interest-earning assets. Generally, the net interest margin will exceed the net interest spread because a portion of interest earning assets are funded by various noninterest-bearing sources, principally noninterest-bearing deposits and shareholders’ equity.

 

   For the Three Months Ended June 30, 
   2020   2019   Change 
   (dollars in thousands) 
Average interest-earning assets  $658,025   $483,163   $174,862 
Interest income  $6,193   $5,871   $322 
Yield on interest-earning assets   3.79%   4.87%   (1.08)%
Average interest-bearing liabilities  $438,183   $356,396   $81,787 
Interest expense  $1,249   $1,319   $(70)
Cost of interest-bearing liabilities   1.15%   1.48%   (0.33)%
Net interest income  $4,944   $4,552   $392 
Net interest margin   3.02%   3.78%   (0.76)%

 

The increase in net interest income of $392,000 in the second quarter of 2020 was primarily the result of the following:

 

·Interest income on loans held for investment increased by $377,000 compared to the same period in 2019 because of a $142,405,000 increase in the average balance outstanding which was partially offset by a decrease in the yield of 103 basis points. The increase in the average balance outstanding was mainly a result of the origination of $184,478,000 in PPP loans. The decrease in the yield was primarily because of the PPP loans carrying a stated interest rate of 1.00% and the 225 basis points drop in the Federal Reserve’s target federal funds rate from March 31, 2019.
·During the second quarter of 2020, the Company made the decision to carry a larger portion of its liquidity in federal funds sold in response to the economic crisis and to support the funding needs of its PPP loan originations. This increased liquidity earned a yield of eight basis points compared to 228 basis points during the same period in 2019.
·Interest expense on interest bearing liabilities decreased by $70,000 compared to the same period in 2019 because of a decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities of 33 basis points which was partially offset by an $81,787,000 increase in the average balance outstanding. The decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities was the result of a disciplined approached to pricing as well as continued success in growing lower costs relationship deposits. The increase in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities was the result of a $44,946,000 increase in the average balance of low cost relationship deposits and an increase of $41,538,000 in other borrowings due to the Company’s usage of the PPPLF. The PPPLF carried a balance of $45,120,000 as of June 30, 2020.

   For the Six Months Ended June 30, 
   2020   2019   Change 
   (dollars in thousands) 
Average interest-earning assets  $580,031   $477,885   $102,146 
Interest income  $11,877   $11,580   $297 
Yield on interest-earning assets   4.13%   4.89%   (0.76)%
Average interest-bearing liabilities  $397,792   $355,388   $42,404 
Interest expense  $2,506   $2,562   $(56)
Cost of interest-bearing liabilities   1.27%   1.45%   (0.18)%
Net interest income  $9,371   $9,018   $353 
Net interest margin   3.25%   3.81%   (0.56)%

 

The increase in net interest income of $353,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily the result of the following:

 

·Interest income on loans held for investment increased by $335,000 compared to the same period in 2019 because of a $79,232,000 increase in the average balance outstanding which was partially offset by a decrease in the yield of 70 basis points. The increase in the average balance outstanding was mainly a result of the origination of $184,478,000 in PPP loans during the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in the yield was primarily because of the PPP loans carrying a stated interest rate of 1.00% and the 225 basis points drop in the Federal Reserve’s target federal funds rate from March 31, 2019.
·During the first half of 2020, the Company made the decision to carry a larger portion of its liquidity in federal funds sold in response to the economic crisis and to support the funding needs of its PPP loan originations. This increased liquidity earned a yield of 38 basis points compared to 250 basis points during the same period in 2019.
·Interest expense on interest bearing liabilities decreased by $56,000 compared to the same period in 2019 because of a decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities of 18 basis points which was partially offset by a $42,404,000 in the average balance outstanding. The decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities was the result of a disciplined approached to pricing as well as continued success in growing lower costs relationship deposits. The increase in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities was the result of a $31,855,000 increase in the average balance of low cost relationship deposits and an increase of $22,874,000 in other borrowings due to the Company’s usage of the PPPLF during the second quarter of 2020. The PPPLF carried a balance of $45,120,000 as of June 30, 2020.

Provision for (recovery of) loan losses

 

The amount of the allowance for loan losses is determined by an evaluation of the level of loans outstanding, the level of non-performing loans, historical loan loss experience, delinquency trends, underlying collateral values, the amount of actual losses charged to the reserve in a given period and assessment of present and anticipated economic conditions.

 

The level of the allowance reflects changes in the size of the portfolio or in any of its components as well as management’s continuing evaluation of industry concentrations, specific credit risks, loan loss experience, current loan portfolio quality, and present economic, political and regulatory conditions. Portions of the allowance may be allocated for specific credits; however, the entire allowance is available for any credit that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond the Company’s control, including the performance of the Company’s loan portfolio, the economy, changes in interest rates and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications.

 

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $300,000 and $700,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as a result of growth in the loan portfolio and an increase in the qualitative factors due to the anticipated economic impact of COVID-19. The increase in the qualitative factors due to COVID-19 were a result of deterioration in local economic factors such as the higher levels of unemployment and the potential impact of elevated loan deferral requests. The Company believes the current level of allowance for loan loss reserves are adequate to cover anticipated losses. However, the full economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is currently unknown and the Company will continue to monitor our loan portfolio for loss indicators which may have the potential for further significant provisions for loan losses through 2020 and beyond. The Company did not record a provision for loan losses for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2019 because of minimal net charge-offs, no significant changes in qualitative factors and stable asset quality.

 

For more financial data and other information about the allowance for loan losses refer to section, “Balance Sheet Analysis under this Item 2 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, and Note 5 “Loans and allowance for loan losses” in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

The decrease in noninterest expense of $1,224,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, was the result of the following:

 

·The decrease in salaries and benefits was primarily driven by the deferral of $1,052,000 in salary and benefits costs associated with the origination of over 1,500 PPP loans during the quarter, which was partially offset by increased salaries and benefits cost due to increased employee levels to support PPP originations. The deferred costs will be recognized over the life of the PPP loans as a component of interest income along with the origination fees. This level of deferred costs is not expected to be recognized in future quarters and the recognition of the deferred costs and fees will accelerate as PPP loans are forgiven or repaid.
·The decrease in foreclosed assets, net expense was the result of the sale of two foreclosed properties resulting in a gain of $175,000.

Income taxes

 

The Company’s effective tax rate, income tax as a percent of pre-tax income, may vary significantly from the statutory rate due to permanent difference and available tax credits. Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $665,000 and $905,000, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 22.2% and 21.9%, respectively, compared to $180,000 and $356,000 or 22.0% and 19.8%, for the same periods in 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily related to a reduction in the tax credit received related to state taxes attributed to the Company and the mortgage banking segment. The Bank is not subject Virginia income taxes, and instead is subject to a franchise tax based on bank capital.

Loans

 

One of management’s objectives is to improve the quality of the loan portfolio. The Company seeks to achieve this objective by maintaining rigorous underwriting standards coupled with regular evaluation of the creditworthiness of and the designation of lending limits for each borrower. The portfolio strategies include seeking industry, loan type and loan size diversification in order to minimize credit concentration risk. Management also focuses on originating loans in markets with which the Company is familiar. Additionally, as a significant amount of the loan losses we have experienced in the past is attributable to construction and land development loans, our strategy has shifted from reducing this type of lending to closely managing the quality and concentration in these loan types.

 

Approximately 58% of all loans are secured by mortgages on real property located principally in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Approximately 5% of the loan portfolio consists of rehabilitated student loans purchased by the Bank from 2014 to 2017 (see discussion following). The Company’s commercial and industrial loan portfolio represents approximately 36% of all loans. Loans in this category are typically made to individuals and small and medium-sized businesses, and range between $250,000 and $2.5 million; however, the increase in the portfolio during the quarter was the result of the Company originating $184,478,000 in PPP loans during the quarter, which are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. Based on underwriting standards, commercial and industrial loans may be secured in whole or in part by collateral such as liquid assets, accounts receivable, equipment, inventory, and real property. The collateral securing any loan may depend on the type of loan and may vary in value based on market conditions. The remainder of our loan portfolio is in consumer loans which represent less than 1% of the total.

Nonperforming restructured loans are included in nonaccrual loans. Until a nonperforming restructured loan has performed in accordance with its restructured terms for a minimum of six months, it will remain on nonaccrual status.

 

Interest is accrued on outstanding loan principal balances, unless the Company considers collection to be doubtful. Commercial and unsecured consumer loans are designated as non-accrual when the Company considers collection of expected principal and interest doubtful. Mortgage loans and most other types of consumer loans past due 90 days or more may remain on accrual status if management determines that concern over our ability to collect principal and interest is not significant. When loans are placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued and unpaid interest is reversed against interest income in the current period and interest is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash is received. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to both principal and interest.

Of the total nonaccrual loans of $1,831,000 at June 30, 2020 that were considered impaired, one loan totaling $169,000 had a specific allowances for loan losses totaling $16,000. This compares to $1,868,000 in nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2019 of which one loan totaling $135,000 had specific allowance for loan loss of $135,000. This loan was charged off during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Cumulative interest income that would have been recorded had nonaccrual loans been performing would have been approximately $90,000 and $120,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Deposits

Total  $579,795    100.0%  $443,208    100.0%

 

Total deposits increased by $136,587,000, or 30.8%, from $443,208,000 at December 31, 2019 to $579,795,000 at June 30, 2020. Variances of note are as follows:

 

·Noninterest bearing demand account balances increased $81,206,000 from December 31, 2019, and represented 36.6% of total deposits at June 30, 2020 compared to 29.6% as of December 31, 2019. The increase in noninterest bearing deposits for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 was a result of the Bank converting a significant portion of non-customer PPP loan applicants into customers during the three month period ended June 30, 2020.

 

·Low cost relationship deposit accounts (i.e. interest bearing checking, money market, and savings) balances increased $56,465,000 from December 31, 2019, and represented 39.9% of total deposits at June 30, 2020 compared to 39.4% as of December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily a result of growth in accounts from accounts from non-customer PPP loan applicants and the migration of customer funds from time deposits.

 

·Time deposits decreased by $1,084,000 from December 31, 2019, and represented 23.5% of total deposits at June 30, 2020 compared to 30.9% as of December 2019. The decrease in time deposits is a result of our continued focus on building low cost relationship deposits and working to improve our deposits mix and cost of funds. Wholesale time deposits were $22,732,000 as of June 30, 2020 compared to $1,494,000 as of December 31, 2019. The increase in wholesale time deposits was a result of the Bank bolstering its liquidity position early in the second quarter of 2020 to help support its participation in the PPP loan program, and meet other liquidity needs that might arise during the economic crisis.

The variety of deposit accounts that we offer has allowed us to be competitive in obtaining funds and has allowed us to respond with flexibility to, although not to eliminate, the threat of disintermediation (the flow of funds away from depository institutions such as banking institutions into direct investment vehicles such as government and corporate securities). Our ability to attract and retain deposits, and our cost of funds, has been, and is expected to continue to be, significantly affected by market conditions.

 

Borrowings

 

We utilize borrowings to supplement deposits to address funding or liability duration needs. For more financial data and other information about borrowings refer to Note 7 “Borrowings” in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

 

Capital resources

 

Shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2020 was $46,617,000 compared to $42,914,000 at December 31, 2019. The $3.7 million increase in shareholders’ equity during the six months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily due to net income of $3,233,000.

Liquidity

 

Liquidity represents the ability of a company to convert assets into cash or cash equivalents without significant loss, and the ability to raise additional funds by increasing liabilities. Liquidity management involves monitoring our sources and uses of funds in order to meet our day-to-day cash flow requirements while maximizing profits. Liquidity management is made more complicated because different balance sheet components are subject to varying degrees of management control. For example, the timing of maturities of our investment portfolio is fairly predictable and subject to a high degree of control at the time investment decisions are made. However, net deposit inflows and outflows are far less predictable and are not subject to the same degree of control.

 

At June 30, 2020, our liquid assets, consisting of cash, cash equivalents and investment securities available for sale, totaled $72,739,000, or 10.1% of total assets. Investment securities traditionally provide a secondary source of liquidity since they can be converted into cash in a timely manner.

 

Our holdings of liquid assets plus the ability to maintain and expand our deposit base and borrowing capabilities serve as our principal sources of liquidity. We plan to meet our future cash needs through the liquidation of temporary investments, the generation of deposits, and from additional borrowings. In addition, we will receive cash upon the maturity and sale of loans and the maturity of investment securities. We maintain two federal funds lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling $15 million for which there were no borrowings against the lines at June 30, 2020 and $5,317,000 borrowings against the line at December 31, 2019.

 

We are also a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, from which applications for borrowings can be made. The FHLB requires that securities, qualifying mortgage loans, and stock of the FHLB owned by the Bank be pledged to secure any advances from the FHLB. The unused borrowing capacity currently available from the FHLB at June 30, 2020 was $5.3 million, based on the Bank's qualifying collateral available to secure any future borrowings. However, we are able to pledge additional collateral to the FHLB in order to increase our available borrowing capacity up to 25% of assets.

 

We also have access to the Federal Reserve’s PPPLF, from which applications for borrowings can be made. The Federal Reserve requires that PPP loans be pledged to secure any advances from the PPPLF. The Company currently has $45,120,000 in borrowings against the PPPLF and an unused borrowing capacity of $139,358,000 based on unpledged PPP loans available to secure any future borrowings. The Company has access to this facility until September 30, 2020 at which time the Federal Reserve will no longer take requests for borrowings.

 

Liquidity provides us with the ability to meet normal deposit withdrawals, while also providing for the credit needs of customers. We are committed to maintaining liquidity at a level sufficient to protect depositors, provide for reasonable growth, and fully comply with all regulatory requirements.

 

At June 30, 2020, we had commitments to originate $144,754,000 of loans. Fixed commitments to incur capital expenditures were less than $100,000 at June 30, 2020. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in the 12-month period ending June 30, 2021 totaled $82,737,000. We believe that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us. We further believe that deposit growth, loan repayments and other sources of funds will be adequate to meet our foreseeable short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

Interest rate sensitivity

 

An important element of asset/liability management is the monitoring of our sensitivity to interest rate movements. In order to measure the effects of interest rates on our net interest income, management takes into consideration the expected cash flows from the securities and loan portfolios and the expected magnitude of the repricing of specific asset and liability categories. We evaluate interest sensitivity risk and then formulate guidelines to manage this risk based on management’s outlook regarding the economy, forecasted interest rate movements and other business factors. Our goal is to maximize and stabilize the net interest margin by limiting exposure to interest rate changes.

 

Contractual principal repayments of loans do not necessarily reflect the actual term of our loan portfolio. The average lives of mortgage loans are substantially less than their contractual terms because of loan prepayments and because of enforcement of due-on-sale clauses, which gives us the right to declare a loan immediately due and payable in the event, among other things, the borrower sells the real property subject to the mortgage and the loan is not repaid. In addition, certain borrowers increase their equity in the security property by making payments in excess of those required under the terms of the mortgage.

 

The sale of fixed rate loans is intended to protect us from precipitous changes in the general level of interest rates. The valuation of adjustable rate mortgage loans is not as directly dependent on the level of interest rates as is the value of fixed rate loans. As with other investments, we regularly monitor the appropriateness of the level of adjustable rate mortgage loans in our portfolio and may decide from time to time to sell such loans and reinvest the proceeds in other adjustable rate investments.

 

Impact of inflation and changing prices

 

The Company’s financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the Company to measure financial position and operating results primarily in terms of historical dollars. Changes in the relative value of money due to inflation or recession are generally not considered. The primary effect of inflation on the operations of the Company is reflected in increased operating costs. In management’s opinion, changes in interest rates affect the financial condition of a financial institution to a far greater degree than changes in the inflation rate. While interest rates are greatly influenced by changes in the inflation rate, they do not necessarily change at the same rate or in the same magnitude as the inflation rate. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond the control of the Company, including changes in the expected rate of inflation, the influence of general and local economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government, its agencies and various other governmental regulatory authorities.

 

LIBOR and Other Benchmark Rates

 

Following the announcement by the U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority in July 2017 that it will no longer persuade or require banks to submit rates for the London InterBank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) after 2021, central banks and regulators around the world have commissioned working groups to find suitable replacements for Interbank Offered Rates (“IBOR”) and other benchmark rates and to implement financial benchmark reforms more generally. These actions have resulted in uncertainty regarding the use of alternative reference rates (“ARRs”) and could cause disruptions in a variety of markets, as well as adversely impact our business, operations and financial results.

 

To facilitate an orderly transition from IBORs and other benchmark rates to ARRs, the Company has established a company-wide initiative led by senior management. The objective of this initiative is to identify and assess the Company’s exposure and develop an appropriate action plan to address prior to transition.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not Applicable.

 

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2020. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020 in ensuring that all material information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed summarized and reported with the time periods specified in SEC rules and regulations and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The Company’s management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation of it that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

 

The impacts of COVID-19, or the outbreak of another highly infectious or contagious disease, could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. Since the beginning of January 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak has caused significant disruption in the financial markets both globally and in the United States. The continuing spread of COVID-19 and the related government actions to mandate or encourage quarantines and social distancing has resulted in a significant decrease in commercial activity nationally and in the Company’s markets, and may cause customers, vendors, and counterparties to be unable to meet existing payment or other obligations to the Company and the Bank.

 

The national public health crisis arising from the COVID-19 pandemic (and public expectations about it), combined with certain pre-existing factors, including, but not limited to, international trade disputes, inflation risks, and oil price volatility, could further destabilize the financial markets and the markets in which the Company operates. The resulting impacts on consumers, including the sudden increase in the unemployment rate, is expected to cause changes in consumer and business spending, borrowing needs and saving habits, which will likely affect the demand for loans and other products and services the Company offers, as well as the creditworthiness of potential and current borrowers. Borrower loan defaults that adversely affect the Company’s earnings correlate with deteriorating economic conditions, which, in turn, may impact borrowers’ creditworthiness and the Bank’s ability to make loans.

 

The use of quarantines and social distancing methods to curtail the spread of COVID-19 – whether mandated by governmental authorities or recommended as a public health practice – may adversely affect the Company’s operations as key personnel, employees and customers avoid physical interaction. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank has been directing branch customers to use drive-thru windows and online banking services, and many employees are telecommuting. It is not yet known what impact these operational changes may have on the Company’s financial performance. The continued spread of COVID-19 (or an outbreak of a similar highly contagious disease) could also negatively impact the business and operations of third-party service providers who perform critical services for the Company’s business.

 

As a result, if COVID-19 continues to spread or the response to contain the COVID-19 pandemic is unsuccessful, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

Except as set forth above, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on March 16, 2020.
