Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Virginia National Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”), and its subsidiaries Virginia National Bank (the “Bank”) and Masonry Capital Management, LLC (“Masonry Capital”), a registered investment advisor.  Effective July 1, 2018, VNBTrust, National Association (“VNBTrust”), formerly a subsidiary of the Bank, was merged into Virginia National Bank, and the Bank continued to offer investment management, wealth advisory and trust and estate administration services under the name of VNB Wealth Management, also referred to herein as “VNB Wealth.” All references herein to VNB Wealth Management or VNB Wealth refer to VNBTrust for periods prior to July 1, 2018.  In 2019, the services offered by VNB Wealth are provided by Masonry Capital or by the Bank under VNB Trust & Estate Services or Sturman Wealth Advisors, formerly known as VNB Investment Services.  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 months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.

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, 2019. 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 and Guidance

Goodwill Impairment Testing In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“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.  ASU 2017-04 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. There was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of ASU 2017-04.

Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement 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.  There was no impact on the Company’s disclosures in its consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of ASU 2018-13.

Interagency COVID-19 Guidance In March 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, (“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 Accounting Standards Codification 310-40, “Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors,” (“ASC 310-40”), a restructuring of debt constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“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. This interagency guidance may have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements; however, this impact cannot be quantified at this time.  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses 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 ASU’s 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, 2019-11, 2020-02, and 2020-03.  These ASU’s 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (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. 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 meets regularly to address the compliance requirements, data requirements and sources, and analysis efforts that are 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 and is attending training sessions on the software to be utilized to calculate the expected credit losses.  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.  

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 a systematic methodology; (3) documenting the results of a systematic methodology; and (4) validating a systematic methodology.

Income Taxes 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, 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 does not expect the adoption of ASU 2019-12 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Investments – Equity Securities 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 FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force and is expected to increase comparability in accounting for these transactions.  ASU 2016-01 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

9

same issuer.  Among other topics, the amendments 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, 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.

LIBOR and Other Reference Rates In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 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 the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“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.  To facilitate an orderly transition from LIBOR, Inter-bank Offered Rate (“IBOR”) and other benchmark rates to alternative reference rates (“ARRs”), the Company has established a focus committee, which includes members of senior management, including the Chief Credit Officer and Chief Financial Officer, among others.  The task of this committee is to identify, assess and monitor risk associated with the expected discontinuation or unavailability of benchmarks, including LIBOR, achieve operations readiness and engage impacted clients in connection with the transition to ARRs.  The Company is assessing ASU 2020-04 and its impact on the Company’s transition away from LIBOR for its loan and other financial instruments.

SEC Filing Requirements On March 12, 2020, the SEC finalized amendments to the definitions of its “accelerated filer” and “large accelerated filer” definitions. The amendments increase the threshold criteria for meeting these filer classifications and are effective on April 27, 2020. Any changes in filer status are to be applied beginning with the filer’s first annual report filed with the SEC subsequent to the effective date. Prior to these changes, the Company was required to comply with section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act concerning auditor attestation over internal control over financial reporting as an “accelerated filer” as it had more than $75 million in public float but less than $700 million at the end of the Company’s most recent second quarter). The rule change expands the definition of “smaller reporting companies” to include entities with public float of less than $700 million and less than $100 million in annual revenues. The Company expects to meet this expanded category of smaller reporting company and will no longer be considered an accelerated filer).  If the Company’s annual revenues exceed $100 million, its category will change back to “accelerated filer”. The classifications of “accelerated filer” and “large accelerated filer” require a public company to obtain an auditor attestation concerning the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) and include the opinion on ICFR in its annual report on Form 10-K.  Smaller reporting companies also have additional time to file quarterly and annual financial statements.  All public companies are required to obtain and file annual financial statement audits, as well as provide management’s assertion on effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, but the external auditor attestation of internal control over financial reporting is not required for smaller reporting companies.  As the Bank’s total assets exceed $500 million, it remains subject to FDICIA’s internal reporting requirements, but does not require an auditor attestation concerning internal controls over financial reporting. As such, professional and consulting expenditures should decline by an immaterial amount.

Note 2.  Securities

The amortized cost and fair values of securities available for sale as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

10

As of March 31, 2020, there were $37.1 million, or 46 issues of individual securities, held in an unrealized loss position.  These securities have an unrealized loss of $1.8 million and consisted of 12 mortgage-backed/CMOs and 34 municipal bonds.

The following table summarizes all securities with unrealized losses, segregated by length of time in a continuous unrealized loss position, at March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

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 considered by management to be driven by 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, 2020, 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, 2020, 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 $5.0 million at March 31, 2020 were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits.  At December 31, 2019, securities having carrying values of $5.0 million were similarly pledged.

11

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, proceeds from the sales of securities amounted to $5.4 million, and realized gain on these securities was $53 thousand. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were no sales of securities.  

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 $1.7 million as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, are carried at cost.

Note 3.  Loans

The composition of the loan portfolio by loan classification at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 appears below (dollars in thousands).

The balances in the table above include unamortized premiums and net deferred loan costs (fees). As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, unamortized premiums on loans purchased were $2.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively. Net deferred loan costs (fees) totaled $84 thousand and $100 thousand as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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.

12

Factors involved in determining impairment include, but are not limited to, expected future cash flows, financial condition of the borrower, and current economic conditions.

Following is a breakdown by class of the loans classified as impaired loans as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. 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, 2020 or the twelve months ended December 31, 2019. Interest income recognized is for the three months ended March 31, 2020 or the twelve months ended December 31, 2019. (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):

13

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 68 of its student loans purchased as TDRs for a total of $1.1 million as of March 31, 2020.  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.  Initially, all student loans were fully insured by a surety bond, and the Company did not expect to experience a loss on these loans.  Based on the loss of insurance after July 27, 2018 due to the insolvency of the insurer, management has evaluated these loans individually for impairment and included any potential loss in the allowance for loan losses; interest continues to accrue on these TDRs during any deferment and forbearance periods.

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).

A summary of loans shown above that were modified under the terms of a TDR during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 is shown below by class (dollars in thousands).  The Post-Modification Recorded Balance reflects the period end balances, inclusive of any interest capitalized to principal, partial principal paydowns, and principal charge-offs since the modification date.  Loans modified as TDRs that were fully paid down, charged-off, or foreclosed upon by period end are not reported.
