VIRGINIA NATIONAL BANKSHARES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2018
Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Virginia National Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”), its subsidiary Virginia National Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s subsidiary, VNBTrust, National Association which offers services under the name VNB Wealth Management (“VNBTrust” or “VNB Wealth”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and the reporting guidelines prescribed by regulatory authorities requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses (including impaired loans), other-than-temporary impairment of securities, intangible assets, and fair value measurements. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018.
The statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. If needed, certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. No such reclassifications were significant.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 makes targeted improvements to several areas of U.S. GAAP, including the disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Specifically, the new guidance (i) eliminates the requirements to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value and the description of the changes therein, if any, during the period, (ii) requires the use of the exit price notion, prospectively, in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and (iii) eliminates the guidance that allowed the use of the entry price notion to calculate the fair value of certain financial instruments, such as loans and long-term debt. For example, the Company has historically estimated the fair value for loans reported at amortized cost on its balance sheet by examining the average rates per the terms of these loans, and comparing those average rates to the current rates offered by the Company (i.e., the entry price notion). Utilizing the exit price notion requires the Company to estimate fair value of these loans based on the price that would be received to sell these loans in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements, for further information regarding the valuation of these loans. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements and resulted in enhancements to the financial instrument disclosures.
During the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively "ASC 606"), which (i) creates a single framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers that fall within its scope and (ii) revises when it is appropriate to recognize a gain (loss) from the transfer of nonfinancial assets, such as OREO. The majority of the Company's revenue is from interest income, including loans and securities, which are outside the scope of the standard. The services that fall within the scope of the standard are presented within noninterest income on the consolidated statement of income and are recognized as revenue as the Company satisfies its obligations to the customer. The revenue that falls within the scope of ASC 606 is primarily related to service charges on deposit accounts, debit/credit card and ATM fees, asset management fees and sales of other real estate owned, when applicable. ASC 606 did not result in a change to the accounting for any in-scope revenue streams; as such, no cumulative effect adjustment was recorded.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” Among other things, in the amendments in ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted upon issuance. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The Company is in the early stages of assessing the impact that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements, including evaluating leases and contracts which are covered and calculating the impact on its assets and liabilities. The Company does not expect the amendment to have a material impact on its net income but does anticipate an increase in assets and liabilities due to the recognition of the required right-of-use asset and corresponding liability for all lease obligations that are currently classified as operating leases, primarily real estate leases for office space, as well as additional disclosure on all our lease obligations.
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 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 amendments in this ASU are effective for SEC filers for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements. Early in 2017, the Company formed a cross-functional steering committee, including some members of senior management, to provide governance and guidance over the project plan. The steering committee has begun to address the compliance requirements, data requirements and sources, and analysis efforts which will be required to adopt these new requirements. In addition to attending seminars and webinars on this topic with regulators and other experts, the committee is working closely with the Company’s vendor to gather additional loan data which is anticipated to be needed for this calculation. The extent of the change is indeterminable at this time as it will be dependent upon portfolio composition and credit quality at the adoption date, as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time. Upon adoption, the impact to the allowance for credit losses (currently allowance for loan losses) will have an offsetting one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The amendments in this ASU simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in this ASU, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. Public business entities that are SEC filers should adopt the amendments in this ASU for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.” The amendments in this ASU shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities purchased at a premium. Upon adoption of the standard, premiums on these qualifying callable debt securities will be amortized to the earliest call date. Discounts on purchased debt securities will continue to be accreted to maturity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Upon transition, entities should apply the guidance on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption and provide the disclosures required for a change in accounting principle. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2017-08 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” The amendments in this ASU modify the designation and measurement guidance for hedge accounting as well as provide for increased transparency regarding the presentation of economic results on both the financial statements and related footnotes. Certain aspects of hedge effectiveness assessments will also be simplified upon implementation of this update. The amendments are effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-12 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
9
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-03, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” The amendments provide targeted improvements to address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Specifically, the amendments include clarifications related to: measurement elections, transition requirements, and adjustments associated with equity securities without readily determinable fair values; fair value measurement requirements for forward contracts and purchased options on equity securities; presentation requirements for hybrid financial liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected; and measurement requirements for liabilities denominated in a foreign currency for which the fair value option has been elected. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2018-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s securities portfolio is primarily made up of fixed rate bonds, the prices of which move inversely with interest rates. Any unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. At the end of any accounting period, the portfolio may have both unrealized gains and losses. Management does not believe any of the securities in an unrealized loss position are impaired due to credit quality. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2018, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary, and no impairment loss has been realized in the Company’s consolidated income statement.
An “other-than-temporary impairment” (“OTTI”) is considered to exist if either of the following conditions are met: it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or the Company does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the Company does not intend to sell). In the event that a security would suffer impairment for a reason that was “other than temporary,” the Company would be expected to write down the security’s value to its new fair value, and the amount of the write down would be included in earnings as a realized loss. As of March 31, 2018, management has concluded that none of its investment securities have an OTTI based upon the information available. Additionally, management has the ability to hold any security with an unrealized loss until maturity or until such time as the value of the security has recovered from its unrealized loss position.
Securities having carrying values of $29.3 million at March 31, 2018 were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and repurchase agreements. At December 31, 2017, securities having carrying values of $29.0 million were similarly pledged.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, there were no sales of securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, proceeds from the sales of securities amounted to $653 thousand, and gross realized gains on these securities were $4 thousand.
Restricted securities are securities with limited marketability and consist of stock in the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (“FRB”), the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”), and CBB Financial Corporation (“CBBFC”), the holding company for Community Bankers Bank. These restricted securities, totaling $2.3 million as of both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, are carried at cost.

The balances in the table above include unamortized premiums and net deferred loan costs and fees. As of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, unamortized premiums on loans purchased were $2.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Net deferred loan costs (fees) totaled $178 thousand and $199 thousand as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
Accounting guidance requires certain disclosures about investments in impaired loans, the allowance for loan losses and interest income recognized on impaired loans. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest amounts when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors involved in determining impairment include, but are not limited to, expected future cash flows, financial condition of the borrower, and current economic conditions.
12
Following is a breakdown by class of the loans classified as impaired loans as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. These loans are reported at their recorded investment, which is the carrying amount of the loan as reflected on the Company’s balance sheet, net of charge-offs and other amounts applied to reduce the net book balance. Average recorded investment in impaired loans is computed using an average of month-end balances for these loans for either the three months ended March 31, 2018 or the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. Interest income recognized is for the three months ended March 31, 2018 or the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. (Dollars below reported in thousands.)

Included in the impaired loans above are non-accrual loans. Generally, loans are placed on non-accrual when a loan is specifically determined to be impaired or when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more. Any unpaid interest previously accrued on those loans is reversed from income. Interest income generally is not recognized on specific impaired loans unless the likelihood of further loss is remote. Interest payments received on such loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance. Interest income on other non-accrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments received. The recorded investment in non-accrual loans is shown below by class (dollars in thousands):

Additionally, Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) are considered impaired loans. TDRs occur when the Company agrees to modify the original terms of a loan by granting a concession that it would not otherwise consider due to the deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. These concessions are done in an attempt to improve the paying capacity of the borrower, and in some cases to avoid foreclosure, and are made with the intent to restore the loan to a performing status once sufficient payment history can be demonstrated. These concessions could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions.
Based on regulatory guidance on Student Lending, the Company has classified 67 of its student loans purchased as TDRs for a total of $1.2 million as of March 31, 2018. These borrowers that should have been in repayment have requested and been granted payment extensions or reductions exceeding the maximum lifetime allowable payment forbearance of twelve months (36 months lifetime allowance for military service), as permitted under the regulatory guidance, and are therefore considered restructurings. Student loan borrowers are allowed in-school deferments, plus an automatic six-month grace period post in-school status, before repayment is scheduled to begin, and these deferments do not count toward the maximum allowable forbearance. As all student loans purchased are fully insured, the Company does not expect to experience a loss on these loans and interest continues to accrue on these TDRs during any deferment and forbearance periods.
13
The following provides a summary, by class, of TDRs that continue to accrue interest under the terms of the restructuring agreement, which are considered to be performing, and TDRs that have been placed in non-accrual status, which are considered to be nonperforming (dollars in thousands).

Note 4. Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The amount of the allowance is based on management’s quarterly evaluation of the collectability of the loan portfolio, credit concentrations, historical loss experience, specific impaired loans, and economic conditions. To determine the total allowance for loan losses, the Company estimates the reserves needed for each segment of the portfolio, including loans analyzed individually and loans analyzed on a pooled basis. Allowances for impaired loans are generally determined based on collateral values or the present value of estimated cash flows.
14
For purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses, the Company has segmented certain loans in the portfolio by product type. Within these segments, the Company has sub-segmented its portfolio by classes within the segments, based on the associated risks within these classes.

Management utilizes a loss migration model for determining the quantitative risk assigned to unimpaired loans in order to capture historical loss information at the loan level, track loss migration through risk grade deterioration, and increase efficiencies related to performing the calculations. The quantitative risk factor for each loan class primarily utilizes a migration analysis loss method based on loss history for the prior twelve quarters.
The migration analysis loss method is used for all loan classes except for the following:
● | Student loans purchased are fully insured for loss by surety bonds that the Company purchased at the same time that each package of student loans was acquired, and the Company has not experienced any losses in this class to date. In addition to the insurance, the Company holds deposit reserve accounts to offset any losses resulting from the breach of any representations or warranties by the sellers. Qualitative factors are applied, and the calculated reserve is net of any deposit reserve accounts. |
● | Prior to the quarter ended September 30, 2016, there was not an established loss history in the commercial and industrial syndicated loans. The S&P credit and recovery ratings on the credit facilities were utilized to calculate a three-year weighted average historical default rate. During the third quarter of 2016, there was a small loss in the commercial and industrial syndicated loans; therefore, the Company utilized a combination of the migration analysis loss method and the S&P credit and recovery ratings. |
● | Commercial and industrial government guaranteed loans require no reserve as these are 100% guaranteed by either the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) or the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”). |
Furthermore, a nominal loss reserve is applied to loans rated “Good” in an abundance of caution.
Under the migration analysis method, average loss rates are calculated at the risk grade and class levels by dividing the twelve-quarter average net charge-off amount by the twelve-quarter average loan balances. Qualitative factors are combined with these quantitative factors to arrive at the overall general allowances.
The Company’s internal creditworthiness grading system is based on experiences with similarly graded loans. The Company performs regular credit reviews of the loan portfolio to review the credit quality and adherence to its underwriting standards. Additionally, external reviews of a portion of the credits are conducted on a semi-annual basis.
15
Loans that trend upward on the risk ratings scale, toward more positive risk ratings, generally exhibit lower risk factor characteristics. Conversely, loans that migrate toward more negative ratings generally will result in a higher risk factor being applied to those related loan balances.
Risk Ratings and Historical Loss Factor Assigned
Excellent
A 0% historical loss factor applied, as these loans are secured by cash or fully guaranteed by a U.S. government agency and represent a minimal risk. The Company has never experienced a loss within this category.
Good
A 0% historical loss factor applied, as these loans represent a low risk and are secured by marketable collateral within margin. The Company has never experienced a loss within this category.
Pass
A historical loss factor for loans rated “Pass” is applied to current balances of like-rated loans, pooled by class. Loans with the following risk ratings are pooled by class and considered together as “Pass”:
Satisfactory – modest risk loans where the borrower has strong and liquid financial statements and more than adequate cash flow
Average – average risk loans where the borrower has reasonable debt service capacity
Marginal – acceptable risk loans where the borrower has acceptable financial statements but is leveraged
Watch
These loans have an acceptable risk but require more attention than normal servicing. A historical loss factor for loans rated “Watch” is applied to current balances of like-rated loans pooled by class.
Special Mention
These potential problem loans are currently protected but are potentially weak. A historical loss factor for loans rated “Special Mention” is applied to current balances of like-rated loans pooled by class.
Substandard
These problem loans are inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower and/or the value of any collateral pledged. These loans may be considered impaired and evaluated on an individual basis. Otherwise, a historical loss factor for loans rated “Substandard” is applied to current balances of all other “Substandard” loans pooled by class.
Doubtful
Loans with this rating have significant deterioration in the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower and/or the value of any collateral pledged, making collection or liquidation of the loan in full highly questionable. These loans would be considered impaired and evaluated on an individual basis.
16
The following represents the loan portfolio designated by the internal risk ratings assigned to each credit as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands). There were no loans rated “Doubtful” as of either period.

In addition, the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses is evaluated through reference to eight qualitative factors, listed below and ranked in order of importance:
1) |
Changes in national and local economic conditions, including the condition of various market segments |
2) |
Changes in the value of underlying collateral |
3) |
Changes in volume of classified assets, measured as a percentage of capital |
4) |
Changes in volume of delinquent loans |
5) |
The existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations |
6) |
Changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards |
7) |
Changes in the experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff, and |
8) |
Changes in the level of policy exceptions |
It has been the Company’s experience that the first five factors drive losses to a much greater extent than the last three factors; therefore, the first five factors are weighted more heavily. Qualitative factors are not assessed against loans rated “Excellent” or “Good.”
For each segment and class of loans, management must exercise significant judgment to determine the estimation method that fits the credit risk characteristics of its various segments. Although this evaluation is inherently subjective, qualified management utilizes its significant knowledge and experience related to both the Company’s market and the history of the Company’s loan losses.
Impaired loans are individually evaluated and, if deemed appropriate, a specific allocation is made for these loans. In reviewing the loans classified as impaired loans totaling $2.6 million at March 31, 2018, there was no specific valuation allowance on any of these loans after consideration was given for each borrowing as to the fair value of the collateral on the loan or the present value of expected future cash flows from the borrower.

As previously mentioned, one of the major factors that the Company uses in evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses is changes in the volume of delinquent loans. Management monitors payment activity on a regular basis. For all classes of loans, the Company considers the entire balance of the loan to be contractually delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the due date. Interest and fees continue to accrue on past due loans until they are changed to non-accrual status.

Note 5. Net Income Per Share
On March 16, 2018, the Board of Directors approved a stock dividend of five percent (5%) on the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (or .05 share for each share outstanding) to be issued on April 13, 2018 to all shareholders of record as of the close of business on April 3, 2018. Shareholders received cash in lieu of any fractional shares that they otherwise would have been entitled to receive in connection with the stock dividend. The price paid for fractional shares was based on the volume-weighted average price of a share of common stock for the most recent three (3) days prior to the record date during which a trade of the Company’s stock occurred.
For the following table, share and per share data have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 5% stock dividend effective April 13, 2018. The table shows the weighted average number of shares used in computing net income per common share and the effect on the weighted average number of shares of diluted potential common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Potential dilutive common stock equivalents have no effect on net income available to common shareholders. (Dollars below reported in thousands except per share data.)

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, there were no shares considered anti-dilutive and excluded from this calculation. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, option shares totaling 2,100, as adjusted, were considered anti-dilutive and were excluded from this calculation.
Note 6. Stock Incentive Plans
At the Annual Shareholders Meeting on May 21, 2014, shareholders approved the Virginia National Bankshares Corporation 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (“2014 Plan”). The 2014 Plan makes available up to 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued to plan participants. Similar to the Company’s 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (“2003 Plan”) and 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (“2005 Plan”), the 2014 Plan provides for granting of both incentive and nonqualified stock options, as well as restricted stock and other stock based awards. No new grants will be issued under the 2003 Plan or the 2005 Plan as these plans have expired.
For all of the Company’s stock incentive plans (the “Plans”), the option price of incentive stock options will not be less than the fair value of the stock at the time an option is granted. Nonqualified stock options may be granted at prices established by the Board of Directors, including prices less than the fair value on the date of grant. Outstanding stock options generally expire in ten years from the grant date. Stock options generally vest by the fourth or fifth anniversary of the date of the grant.
21
A summary of the shares issued and available under each of the Plans is shown below as of March 31, 2018. Share data and exercise price range per share have been adjusted to reflect the 5% stock dividend effective April 13, 2018. Although the 2003 Plan and 2005 Plan have expired and no new grants will be issued under these plans, there were options issued before the plans expired which are still outstanding as shown below.

The Company accounts for all of its stock incentive plans under recognition and measurement accounting principles which require that the compensation cost relating to stock-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Stock-based compensation arrangements include stock options and restricted stock. All stock-based payments to employees are required to be valued at a fair value on the date of grant and expensed based on that fair value over the applicable vesting period. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized $1 thousand and $3 thousand, respectively, in compensation expense for stock options. As of March 31, 2018, there was $8 thousand in unamortized compensation expense remaining to be recognized in future reporting periods through 2021.

Note 7. Fair Value Measurements
Determination of Fair Value
The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. This codification clarifies that the fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.
The fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.
Fair Value Hierarchy
In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
Level 1 – |
Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. |
Level 2 – |
Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market. |
Level 3 – |
Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market |
23
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated financial statements:
Securities available for sale
Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).
The following tables present the balances measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write downs of individual assets. The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the consolidated financial statements:
Impaired Loans
Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected when due. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the 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 outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral value is significantly adjusted due to differences in the comparable properties, or is discounted by the Company because of marketability, then the fair value is considered Level 3.
The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business’ financial statements if not considered significant. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3).
24
Impaired loans allocated to the Allowance for Loan Losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company had impaired loans of $2.6 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. None of these impaired loans required a valuation allowance after consideration was given for each borrowing as to the fair value of the collateral on the loan or the present value of expected future cash flows from the customer.
Other Real Estate Owned
Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is measured at fair value less cost to sell, based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company. If the collateral value is significantly adjusted due to differences in the comparable properties, or is discounted by the Company because of marketability, then the fair value is considered Level 3. OREO is measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any initial fair value adjustment is charged against the Allowance for Loan Losses. Subsequent fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred and included in other noninterest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had no OREO property.
ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim periods and excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial 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 the prospective adoption of ASU No. 2016-01, the fair value of loans as of March 31, 2018 was measured using an exit price notion. The fair value of loans as of December 31, 2017 was measured using an entry price notion. The Company has historically estimated the fair value for loans reported at amortized cost on its balance sheet by examining the average rates per the terms of these loans, and comparing those average rates to the current rates offered by the Company (i.e., the entry price notion). Utilizing the exit price notion requires the Company to estimate fair value of these loans based on the price that would be received to sell these loans in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
26
The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of its normal operations. Consequently, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate when interest rate levels change, and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk; however, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company’s overall interest rate risk.
Note 8. Other Comprehensive Income
A component of the Company’s other comprehensive income, in addition to net income from operations, is the recognition of the unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, net of income taxes. Reclassifications of realized gains and losses on available for sale securities are reported in the income statement as “Gains (losses) on sales and calls of securities” with the corresponding income tax effect reflected as a component of income tax expense. Amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income are presented below for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 (dollars in thousands):

Note 9. Segment Reporting
Virginia National Bankshares Corporation has two reportable segments, the Bank and VNB Wealth.
The Company’s commercial banking segment involves making loans and generating deposits from individuals, businesses and charitable organizations. Loan fee income, service charges from deposit accounts, and other non-interest-related fees, such as fees for debit cards and ATM usage and fees for treasury management services, generate additional income for this segment.
The VNB Wealth segment includes (a) trust income from the investment management, wealth advisory and trust and estate services offered by VNBTrust, comprised of both management fees and performance fees, (b) advisory and brokerage income from investment advisory, retail brokerage, annuity and insurance services offered under the name of VNB Investment Services and (c) royalty income from the sale of Swift Run Capital Management, LLC in 2013. More information on royalty income and the related sale can be found under Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Note 1 of the notes to consolidated financial statements, which is found in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, in the Company’s Form 10-K Report for December 31, 2017 (the “Company’s 2017 Form 10-K”).
A management fee for administrative and technology support services provided by the Bank is charged to VNB Wealth. For both the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, management fees of $25 thousand were charged to VNB Wealth and eliminated in consolidated totals.
The Company is in the process of changing the structure of its VNB Wealth lines of business. The Company intends to form a registered investment adviser (the “RIA”) to offer investment advisory and management services to clients through separately managed accounts and through one or more private investment fund(s). The Company believes the formation of the RIA will allow the Company to offer its investment strategy to a wider range of clients. The Company also plans to merge VNBTrust into the Bank. Following that merger, the Bank will continue to offer trust and estate administration, investment management and other fiduciary services, as well as VNB Investment Services. The Company expects these changes to occur later in 2018, subject to regulatory approvals.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies provided earlier in this report. Each reportable segment is a strategic business unit that offers different products and services. They are managed separately, because each segment appeals to different markets and, accordingly, require different technology and marketing strategies.
27
Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is shown in the following tables (dollars in thousands). The VNB Wealth total assets as shown in the following tables represent the assets of VNB Wealth and should not be confused with client assets under management.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Virginia National Bankshares Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company’s 2017 Form 10-K. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2018 or any future period.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND FACTORS THAT COULD AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, including but not limited to, statements concerning future results of operations or financial position, borrowing capacity and future liquidity, future investment results, future credit exposure, future loan losses and plans and objectives for future operations, change in laws and regulations applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries, adequacy of funding sources, actuarial expected benefit payment, valuation of foreclosed assets, regulatory requirements, economic environment and other statements contained herein regarding matters that are not historical facts, are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements are often characterized by use of qualified words such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “will,” “should” or words of similar meaning or other statements concerning the opinions or judgment of the Company and its management about future events. These statements are not historical facts but instead are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, and represent only our belief regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside our control. Any forward-looking statements made by the Company speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. Our actual results and financial position may differ materially from the anticipated results and financial condition indicated in or implied by these forward-looking statements. The Company makes no commitment to update or revise forward-looking statements in order to reflect new information or subsequent events or changes in expectations.
28
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: inflation, interest rates, market and monetary fluctuations; geopolitical developments including acts of war and terrorism and their impact on economic conditions; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; changes, particularly declines, in economic and business conditions, both generally and in the local markets in which the Company operates; the financial condition of the Company’s borrowers; competitive pressures on loan and deposit pricing and demand; changes in technology and their impact on the marketing of new products and services and the acceptance of these products and services by new and existing customers; the willingness of customers to substitute competitors’ products and services for the Company’s products and services; the impact of changes in financial services laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); changes in accounting principles, policies and guidelines; the ability to retain key personnel; incorrect assumptions regarding the allowance for loan losses; risks and assumptions associated with mergers and acquisitions and other expansion activities; other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in press releases and other public filings; and the Company’s performance in managing the risks involved in any of the foregoing. The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive, and the Company will not update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform, in all material respects, to GAAP and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. While the Company bases estimates on historical experience, current information and other factors deemed to be relevant, actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company considers accounting estimates to be critical to reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain, and (ii) different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company’s accounting policies are fundamental to understanding management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.
For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to the Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates section under Item 7 in the Company’s 2017 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2017.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets
The total assets of the Company as of March 31, 2018 were $625.5 million. This is an $18.4 million decrease from the $643.9 million total assets reported at December 31, 2017 and a $13.3 million decrease from the $638.8 million reported at March 31, 2017. An $18.1 million decline in funding from deposits was the major reason for the contraction in assets since the end of 2017.
Federal funds sold
The Company had no overnight federal funds sold at March 31, 2018, compared to $6.9 million and $45.5 million as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively. Any excess funds are sold on a daily basis in the federal funds market. The Company intends to maintain sufficient liquidity at all times to meet its funding commitments.
The Company continues to participate in the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond’s Excess Balance Account (“EBA”). The EBA is a limited-purpose account at the Federal Reserve Bank for the maintenance of excess cash balances held by financial institutions. The EBA eliminates the potential of concentration risk that comes with depositing excess balances with one or multiple correspondent banks.
Securities
The Company’s investment securities portfolio as of March 31, 2018 totaled $67.3 million, a decrease of $2.5 million compared with the $69.8 million reported at December 31, 2017 and a decrease of $2.2 million from the $69.5 million reported at March 31, 2017. Management proactively manages the mix of earning assets and cost of funds to maximize the earning capacity of the Company. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the investment securities holdings represented 10.8% of the Company’s total assets.
The Company’s investment securities portfolio included restricted securities totaling $2.3 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and $1.7 million as of March 31, 2017. These securities represent stock in the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (“FRB-R”), the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB-A”), and CBB Financial Corporation (“CBBFC”), the holding company for Community Bankers Bank. The level of FRB-R and FHLB-A stock that the Company is required to hold is determined in accordance with membership guidelines provided by the Federal Reserve Bank Board of Governors or the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. The increase compared to March 31, 2017 was required by FHLB-A as a result of the Company’s short-term borrowing initiated during the third quarter of 2017. Stock ownership in the bank holding company for Community Bankers’ Bank provides the Bank with several benefits that are not available to non-shareholder correspondent banks. None of these restricted securities are traded on the open market and can only be redeemed by the respective issuer.
29
At March 31, 2018, the unrestricted securities portfolio totaled $64.9 million. The following table summarizes the Company's available for sale securities by type as of March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

The securities are held primarily for earnings, liquidity, and asset/liability management purposes and reviewed quarterly for possible other-than-temporary impairments. During this review, management analyzes the length of time the fair value has been below cost, the expectation for that security’s performance, the creditworthiness of the issuer, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security to recovery or maturity. These factors are analyzed for each individual security.
Loan portfolio
A management objective is to grow loan balances while maintaining the asset 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 size, and loan type diversification in order to minimize credit exposure and originating loans in markets with which the Company is familiar. The predominant market area for loans includes Charlottesville, Albemarle County, Orange County, Harrisonburg, Winchester, Frederick County and areas in the Commonwealth of Virginia that are within a 75 mile radius of any Virginia National Bank office.
As of March 31, 2018, total loans were $524.7 million, compared to the balance of $528.8 million as of December 31, 2017 and $487.5 million at March 31, 2017. Loans as a percentage of total assets at March 31, 2018 were 83.9%, compared to 76.3% as of March 31, 2017. Loans as a percentage of deposits at March 31, 2018 were 100.0%, compared to 86.6% as of March 31, 2017.
The following table summarizes the Company's loan portfolio by type of loan as of March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

Although loan balances contracted $4.1 million since yearend 2017, gross loans at March 31, 2018 expanded $37.2 million, or 7.6% from the $487.5 million outstanding at March 31, 2017. Over the one-year period, the loan growth was attributable to approximately $24.3 million in net organic loan growth, supplemented by purchases of loans. The purchase of loans is considered a secondary strategy, which allows the Company to supplement organic loan growth and enhance earnings. Purchased loans with balances outstanding of $99.1 million as of March 31, 2018 were comprised of:
● | Student loans totaling $62.1 million. The Company purchased two student loan packages in 2015 and a third in the fourth quarter of 2016. A fourth tranche was closed in December 2017 for an additional $15.0 million. Along with the purchase of these four packages of student loans, the Company purchased surety bonds that fully insure this portion of the Company’s consumer portfolio. |
● | Loans guaranteed by a U.S. government agency (“government guaranteed”) totaling $24.1 million, inclusive of premium. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company began augmenting the commercial and industrial portfolio with government guaranteed loans which represent the portion of loans that are 100% guaranteed by either the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) or the Small Business Administration (“SBA”); the originating institution holds the unguaranteed portion of the loan and services it. These government guaranteed portion of loans are typically purchased at a premium. In the event of early prepayment, the Company may need to write off any unamortized premium. |
● | Syndicated loans totaling $12.9 million. Syndicated loans represent shared national credits in leveraged lending transactions and are included in the commercial and industrial portfolio. The Company has developed policies to limit overall credit exposure to the syndicated market, as well as limits by industry and amount per borrower. |
Management will continue to evaluate loan purchase transactions as needed to supplement organic loan growth, as part of its strategy to strengthen earnings and attain an effective mix of earning assets.
Loan quality
Non-accrual loans remained low and totaled $171 thousand at March 31, 2018, compared to the $177 thousand and $160 thousand reported at December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively. At March 31, 2018, the Company had loans in its portfolio totaling $377 thousand that were ninety or more days past due which were all still accruing interest as the Company deems them to be collectible.
At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had loans in the amount of $2.6 million classified as impaired loans, of which $2.5 million were Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) that are still accruing interest. At March 31, 2017, the Company had loans in the amount of $2.4 million classified as impaired loans, of which $2.3 million were Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) that are still accruing interest. Based on regulatory guidance on Student Lending, the Company has classified 67 of its purchased student loans as TDRs for a total of $1.2 million as of March 31, 2018. These borrowers that should have been in repayment have requested and been granted payment extensions or reductions exceeding the maximum lifetime allowable payment forbearance of twelve months (36 months lifetime allowance for military service), as permitted under the regulatory guidance, and are therefore considered restructurings. Student loan borrowers are allowed in-school deferments, plus an automatic six-month grace period post in-school status, before repayment is scheduled to begin, and these deferments do not count toward the maximum allowable forbearance. As all student loans purchased are fully insured, the Company does not expect to experience a loss on these loans and interest continues to accrue on these TDRs during any deferment and forbearance periods.
Management identifies potential problem loans through its periodic loan review process and considers potential problem loans as those loans classified as special mention, substandard, or doubtful.
31
Allowance for loan losses
In general, the Company determines the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses by considering the risk classification and delinquency status of loans and other factors. Management may also establish specific allowances for loans which management believes require allowances greater than those allocated according to their risk classification. The purpose of the allowance is to provide for losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Since risks to the loan portfolio include general economic trends as well as conditions affecting individual borrowers, the allowance is an estimate. The Company is committed to determining, on an ongoing basis, the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses. The Company applies historical loss rates to various pools of loans based on risk rating classifications. In addition, the adequacy of the allowance is further evaluated by applying estimates of loss that could be attributable to any one of the following eight qualitative factors:
1) |
Changes in national and local economic conditions, including the condition of various market segments |
2) |
Changes in the value of underlying collateral |
3) |
Changes in volume of classified assets, measured as a percentage of capital |
4) |
Changes in volume of delinquent loans |
5) |
The existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations |
6) |
Changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards |
7) |
Changes in the experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff, and |
8) |
Changes in the level of policy exceptions |
As discussed earlier, the Company utilizes a loss migration model. Migration analysis uses loan level attributes to track the movement of loans through various risk classifications in order to estimate the percentage of losses likely in the portfolio.
The relationship of the allowance for loan losses to total loans at March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2017 appears below (dollars in thousands):
March 31, | December 31, | March 31, | |||||||

Allowance as a percent of period-end loans | 0.75% | 0.76% | 0.75% |
A recovery of provision for loan losses totaling $96 thousand was recorded in the first three months of 2018, while a recovery of $70 thousand was recognized for the first three months of 2017. The following is a summary of the changes in the allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

For additional insight into management’s approach and methodology in estimating the allowance for loan losses, please refer to the earlier discussion of “Allowance for Loan Losses” in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, Note 4 includes details regarding the rollforward of the allowance by loan portfolio segments. The rollforward tables indicate the activity for loans that are charged-off, amounts received from borrowers as recoveries of previously charged-off loan balances, and the allocation by loan portfolio segment of the provision made during the period. The events that can positively impact the amount of allowance in a given loan segment include any one or all of the following: the recovery of a previously charged-off loan balance; the decline in the amount of classified or delinquent loans in a loan segment from the previous period, which most commonly occurs when these loans are repaid or are foreclosed; or when there are improvements in the ratios used to estimate the probability of loan losses. Improvements to the ratios could include lower historical loss rates, improvements to any of the qualitative factors mentioned above, or reduced loss expectations for individually-classified loans.
Management reviews the Allowance for Loan Losses on a quarterly basis to ensure it is adequate based upon the calculated potential losses inherent in the portfolio. Management believes the allowance for loan losses was adequately provided for as of March 31, 2018.
32
Premises and equipment
The Company’s premises and equipment, net of depreciation, as of March 31, 2018 totaled $7.1 million compared to the $7.4 million and $7.8 million as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. The costs of major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Upon disposition, assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the books, and any resulting gain or loss is charged to income.
As of March 31, 2018, the Company and its subsidiaries occupied six full-service banking facilities in the cities of Charlottesville and Winchester, as well as the counties of Albemarle and Orange in Virginia. The Bank closed the Orange, Virginia office effective April 13, 2018; expanded messenger service will continue to be available to the customers within and surrounding Orange, Virginia.
The multi-story office building at 404 People Place, Charlottesville, Virginia, located in Albemarle County, also serves as the Company’s corporate headquarters and operations center, as well as the principal offices of VNB Wealth.
Both the Arlington Boulevard facility in Charlottesville and the People Place facility also contain office space that is currently under lease to tenants.
Deposits
Depository accounts represent the Company’s primary source of funds and are comprised of demand deposits, interest-bearing checking, money market, and savings accounts as well as time deposits. These deposits have been provided predominantly by individuals, businesses and charitable organizations in the Charlottesville/Albemarle area, the Orange County area, and the Winchester area.
Total deposits as of March 31, 2018 were $524.8 million, down $18.1 million compared to the balances of $543.0 million at December 31, 2017 and down $37.8 million compared to the $562.6 million total as of March 31, 2017.

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits on March 31, 2018 were $162.7 million, representing 31.0% of total deposits. Interest-bearing transaction, money market, and savings accounts totaled $257.6 million, and represented 49.1% of total deposits at March 31, 2018. Collectively, noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing transaction and money market accounts represented 80.1% of total deposit accounts at March 31, 2018. These account types are an excellent source of low-cost funding for the Company.
The remaining 19.9% of total deposits consisted of certificates of deposit and other time deposit accounts totaling $104.6 million at March 31, 2018. Included in this deposit total are Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service CDs, known as CDARSTM, whereby depositors can obtain FDIC deposit insurance on account balances of up to $50 million. CDARS deposits totaled $33.8 million as of March 31, 2018.
Repurchase agreements and other borrowings
Short-term borrowings, consisting primarily of repurchase agreements, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Advances, and federal funds purchased, are additional sources of funds for the Company. The level of these borrowings is determined by various factors, including customer demand and the Company's ability to earn a favorable spread on the funds obtained.
33
Repurchase agreements, also referred to as securities sold under agreement to repurchase, are available to non-individual accountholders on an overnight term through the Company’s investment sweep product. Under the agreements to repurchase, invested funds are fully collateralized by security instruments that are pledged on behalf of customers utilizing this product. Total balances in repurchase agreements as of March 31, 2018 were $13.7 million, compared to $19.1 million at December 31, 2017 and fairly level with the balance of $13.0 million as of March 31, 2017.
The Company has a collateral dependent line of credit with the FHLB of Atlanta. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had an outstanding balance of $15.0 million from a FHLB advance. The Company had no outstanding borrowings from the FHLB as of March 31, 2017.
Additional borrowing arrangements maintained by the Bank include formal federal funds lines with four major regional correspondent banks. The Company had an outstanding balance of $2.8 million at March 31, 2018 and no outstanding balances in overnight federal funds purchased as of December 31, 2017 or March 31, 2017.
Shareholders' equity and regulatory capital ratios
The following table displays the changes in shareholders' equity for the Company from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):
Equity, December 31, 2017 | $ | 65,105 | ||
Net income | 2,796 | |||
Other comprehensive loss | (743 | ) | ||
Cash dividends declared | (482 | ) | ||

Equity, March 31, 2018 | $ | 66,821 |
The Basel III regulatory capital rules effective January 1, 2015 required the Company and its subsidiaries to comply with the following new minimum capital ratios: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.50% of risk-weighted assets; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6% of risk-weighted assets (increased from the prior requirement of 4.00%); (iii) a total capital ratio of 8.00% of risk-weighted assets (unchanged from the prior requirement); and (iv) a leverage ratio of 4.00% of total assets (unchanged from the prior requirement). These were the initial capital requirements.
Beginning January 1, 2016 a capital conservation buffer requirement began to be phased in over a four-year period, beginning at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increasing annually to 2.50% at January 1, 2019. Therefore, for the calendar year 2018, this 1.875% buffer effectively results in the minimum (i) common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.375% of risk-weighted assets; (ii) Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.875% of risk-weighted assets; and (iii) total capital ratio of 9.875% of risk-weighted assets. The minimum leverage ratio remains at 4.00%. For additional information regarding the new capital requirements, refer to the Supervision and Regulation section, under Item 1. Business, found in the Company’s Form 10-K Report for December 31, 2017.
Using the new capital requirements, the Company’s capital ratios remain well above the levels designated by bank regulators as "well capitalized" at March 31, 2018. Under the current risk-based capital guidelines of federal regulatory authorities, the Company’s common equity Tier 1 capital ratio and Tier 1 capital ratio are both at 12.79% of its risk-weighted assets and are well in excess of the minimum capital requirements of 6.50% and 8.00%, respectively. Additionally, the Company has a total capital ratio of 13.53% of its risk-weighted assets and leverage ratio of 10.60% of total assets, which are both well in excess of the minimum 10.00% and 5.00% level designated by bank regulators under “well capitalized” capital guidelines.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Non-GAAP presentations
The Company, in referring to its net income and net interest income, is referring to income computed in accordance with GAAP, unless otherwise noted. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations also refer to various calculations that are non-GAAP presentations. They include:
● | Fully taxable-equivalent (“FTE”) adjustments – Net interest margin and efficiency ratios are presented on an FTE basis, consistent with SEC guidance in Industry Guide 3 which states that tax exempt income may be calculated on a tax equivalent basis. This is a non-GAAP presentation. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax-exempt status of net interest income from certain investments using a federal tax rate of 21% for 2018 and 34% for 2017, where applicable, to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable-equivalent basis. |
● | Net interest margin – Net interest margin (FTE) is calculated as net interest income, computed on an FTE basis, expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. The Company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest margin and that it enhances comparability of net interest margin among peers in the industry. |
34
● | Efficiency ratio – One of the ratios the Company monitors in its evaluation of operations is the efficiency ratio, which measures the cost to produce one dollar of revenue. The Company computes its efficiency ratio (FTE) by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income (FTE) and noninterest income. A lower ratio is an indicator of increased operational efficiency. This non-GAAP metric is used to assist investors in understanding how management assesses its ability to generate revenues from its non-funding-related expense base, as well as to align presentation of this financial measure with peers in the industry. The Company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of operational efficiency, which is consistent with Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) studies. |
Net interest income is discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis on a GAAP basis, unless noted as “FTE” and the reconcilement below shows the fully taxable-equivalent adjustment to net interest income to aid the reader in understanding the computations of net interest margin and the efficiency ratio on a non-GAAP basis (dollars in thousands):

Net income
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $2.8 million, a 61.2% increase compared to the $1.7 million reported for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Net income per diluted share was $1.09 for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 compared to $0.69 per diluted share for the same quarter in the prior year. The $1.1 million increase in net income for the first quarter of 2018, when compared to the same period of 2017, was driven by increases in net interest income of $642 thousand, noninterest income of $465 thousand, and recovery of loan losses of $26 thousand, along with decreases in the provision for income taxes of $120 thousand. Partially offsetting this improvement was an increase of $192 thousand in noninterest expenses.
Net interest income
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $5.7 million, a 12.7% increase compared to net interest income of $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Net interest income was positively impacted by an increase in average earning assets of $20.1 million. Most of this growth was in higher yielding loans and resulted in average loans for the first quarter of 2018 being $43.7 million higher than the average loans for the first quarter of 2017.
Net interest margin (FTE) is the ratio of net interest income (FTE) to average earning assets for the period. The level of interest rates, together with the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, impact net interest income (FTE) and net interest margin (FTE). The net interest margin (FTE) of 3.85% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 31 basis points higher than the 3.54% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Refer to the Reconcilement of Non-GAAP Measures table within the Non-GAAP presentations section for a reconcilement of GAAP to non-GAAP net interest margin.
35
Total interest income (FTE) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $802 thousand higher than the same period in the prior year, accounting for the year-to-date increase in net interest income (FTE). The increased loan volume was the major contributor to the increased interest income. This shift resulted in an earning asset yield, as computed on a tax-equivalent basis, of 4.15% on average earning asset balances of $602.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The earning asset yield, as computed on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.73% on average earning asset balances of $582.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Partially offsetting the increased interest income was an increase in interest expense of $168 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same period in the prior year. Interest expense increased due to increased rates paid on deposits to be competitive in the market. Interest rates on borrowed funds also increased from the prior quarter. Although interest expense as a percentage of average earning assets was 0.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, or 11 basis points higher than the 0.19% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company continues to benefit from having one of the lowest cost of funds among community banks in the country. A table showing the mix of no cost and low cost deposit accounts is shown under “Financial Condition - Deposits” earlier in this report.
The following tables detail the average balance sheet, including an analysis of net interest income (FTE) for earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, for the three ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. These tables also include a rate/volume analysis for these same periods (dollars in thousands).

Provision for loan losses
A recovery of provision for loan losses of $96 thousand was recorded in the first quarter of 2018, compared to a recovery of provision for loan losses of $70 thousand for the same quarter in 2017. The 2018 provision for loan losses was recorded due to a decline in loan balances and favorable credit quality factors during the first three months of the year. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans at March 31, 2018 of 0.75% was level with March 31, 2017. As discussed earlier, the Company utilizes a loss migration model. Further discussion of management’s assessment of the allowance for loan losses is provided earlier in the report and in Note 4 – Allowance for Loan Losses, found in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In management’s opinion, the allowance was adequately provided for at March 31, 2018.

Wealth Management contributed positively to income in several areas. Royalty income of $518 thousand was $450 thousand higher in the three months ended March 31, 2018, as a result of the receipt of annual performance fees in connection with our agreement with Swift Run Capital Management, LLC (SRCM). Advisory and brokerage income of $140 thousand for the 2018 period was 10.2% higher than the same period in 2017. Additionally, trust income of $414 thousand was recognized in the first three months of 2018, a 5.6% increase.

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2018 of $4.0 million was $192 thousand higher than the quarter ended March 31, 2017. The $90 thousand increase in salaries and employee benefits was partially due to the expenses associated with hiring experienced loan officers. The $76 thousand increase in marketing, advertising, and promotion was due to a budgeted plan to advertise specific products throughout 2018.
Management continues to evaluate expenses for potential containments and reductions that would have a positive impact on net income on an ongoing basis.
The efficiency ratio (FTE) fell to 54.0% for the first quarter of 2018, an improvement of 6.4 percentage points compared to the efficiency ratio (FTE) of 60.4% for the same quarter of 2017. The improved asset mix and higher yields on earning assets should continue to enhance net interest income. Further, additional noninterest income prospects should add to the revenue stream, while cost containment strategies should control expenses. This combination is expected to continue to support a low efficiency ratio. Refer to the Reconcilement of Non-GAAP Measures table within the Non-GAAP presentations section for a reconcilement of GAAP to non-GAAP efficiency ratio.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company benefited from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”) enacted on December 22, 2017, which permanently lowered the corporate rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018, amongst other significant changes to the U.S. tax law. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, the Company provided $693 thousand and $813 thousand for Federal income taxes, respectively, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 19.9% and 31.9%, respectively. The effective income tax rates differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% for 2018 and 34% for 2017 during the comparable periods primarily due to the effect of tax-exempt income from life insurance policies and municipal bonds. The positive effect of the reduction in the corporate tax rate was partially offset by the income tax provision necessary for the $941 thousand increased income before income taxes in a year-over-year comparison.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. There was no change in the internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.
