CANANDAIGUA NATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


(1)   Basis of Presentation

 

 

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Such principles are applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in the December 31, 2010 Form 10-K Report of the Company filed with the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  Management has prepared the financial information included herein without audit by an independent registered public accounting firm.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Annual Report”).

 

 

 

Amounts in prior periods' condensed consolidated financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current year's presentation.

 

 

 

Management has evaluated the impact of subsequent events on these financial statements to the date of filing of this Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

 

 

Effective August 31, 2010, CNB Mortgage Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Canandaigua National Bank and Trust Company. It was formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canandaigua National Corporation. The reason for the change was to bring CNB Mortgage Company under the federal banking regulatory structure from New York State’s banking regulatory structure, which had become increasingly rigid and costly. There was no change in the consolidated financial results, in segment reporting, or in management of the companies.

Substantially all of the unrealized losses on the Company's securities were caused by market interest rate changes from those in effect when the specific securities were purchased by the Company. With the exception of certain corporate obligations, discussed below, the contractual terms of these securities do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than par value. Except for certain corporate obligations, all securities rated by an independent rating agency carry an investment grade rating. Because the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it believes it is not likely to be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be, and is likely to be, maturity, the Company does not consider these securities to be other than temporarily impaired at March 31, 2011, except as discussed below.

 

In the available-for-sale portfolio, the Company holds approximately $1.0 million of bank trust-preferred securities with an adjusted cost basis of $1.2 million.  These securities are backed by debt obligations of banks, with about $0.8 million of the securities backed by two of the largest U.S. banks and $0.2 million backed by a pool of banks’ debt in the form of a collateralized debt obligation (CDO). As a result of market upheaval, a lack of regular trading market in these securities, and bank failures, the fair value of these securities had fallen sharply in 2008 and continued to fall in the first half of 2009.  As more fully discussed in the 2010 Annual Report, we have recognized cumulative other-than-temporary-impairment (OTTI) amounting to $0.9 million on one CDO. Management intends to sell this security, as such, if the financial condition of the underlying banks continues to deteriorate, further write-downs could occur before a sale. The maximum potential write-down would be its current carrying value of less than $0.2 million.

(3) Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

 

Loans, other than loans designated as held for sale, are stated at the principal amount outstanding net of deferred origination costs. Interest and deferred fees and costs on loans are credited to income based on the effective interest method. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.

 

The accrual of interest on commercial and real estate loans is generally discontinued, and previously accrued interest is reversed, when the loans become 90 days delinquent or when, in management’s judgment, the collection of principal and interest is uncertain. Loans are returned to accrual status when the doubt no longer exists about the loan's collectability and the borrower has demonstrated a period of timely payment history. Specifically, the borrower will have resumed paying the full amount of scheduled interest and principal payments; all principal and interest amounts contractually due (including arrearages) are reasonably assured of repayment within a reasonable period (6 months); and, there is a sustained period of repayment performance (generally a minimum of six months) by the borrower, in accordance with the contractual terms involving payments of cash or cash equivalents.  Interest on consumer loans is accrued until the loan becomes 120 days past due at which time principal and interest are generally charged off.




13


 



(3) Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)

 

Management, considering current information and events regarding the borrowers’ ability to repay their obligations, considers a loan to be impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is considered to be impaired, and sufficient information exists to make a reasonable estimate of the inherent loss, the amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable fair value or the fair value of underlying collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.  In the absence of sufficient, current data to make a detailed assessment of collateral values or cash flows, management measures impairment on a pool basis using loss factors equivalent to those applied to similarly internally classified loans. Impairment reserves are included in the allowance for loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Cash receipts on impaired loans are generally applied to reduce the principal balance outstanding. In considering loans for evaluation of specific impairment, management generally excludes smaller balance, homogeneous loans: residential mortgage loans, home equity loans, and all consumer loans, unless such loans were restructured in a troubled debt restructuring. These loans are collectively evaluated for risk of loss on a pool basis.

 

 

     Loans


The Company's market area is generally Ontario County and Monroe County of New York State. Substantially all loans are made in its market area. Accordingly, the ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of the Company's loan portfolio is susceptible to changes in the economic conditions in this area. The Company's concentrations of credit risk are as disclosed in the following table of loan classifications. The concentrations of credit risk in related loan commitments and letters of credit parallel the loan classifications reflected. Other than general economic risks, management is not aware of any material concentrations of credit risk to any industry or individual borrower.

 

The major classifications of loans at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, follow (in thousands), along with a description of their underwriting and risk characteristics:

Commercial and Industrial Loans: These loans generally include term loans and lines of credit.  Such loans are made available to businesses for working capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion (including acquisition of real estate, expansion and improvements) and equipment purchases. As a general practice, a collateral lien is placed on equipment or other assets owned by the borrower.  These loans carry a higher risk than commercial real estate loans by the nature of the underlying collateral, which can be business assets such as equipment and accounts receivable. To reduce the risk, management also attempts to secure secondary collateral such as real estate and obtain personal guarantees of the borrowers.  To further reduce risk and enhance liquidity, these loans generally carry variable rates of interest, repricing in three- to five-year periods, and have a maturity of five years or less. Lines of credit generally have terms of one year or less and carry floating rates of interest (e.g., prime plus a margin).

 

Commercial Mortgages: Commercial real estate loans are made to finance the purchases of real property which generally consists of real estate with completed structures. These commercial real estate loans are secured by first liens on the real estate, which may include apartments, commercial structures housing businesses, healthcare facilities, and other non-owner- occupied facilities.  These loans are less risky than commercial and industrial loans, since they are secured by real estate and buildings. The loans typically have adjustable interest rates, repricing in three- to five-year periods, and require principal payments over a 10- to 25-year period.  Many of these loans include call provisions within 10 to 15 years of their origination. The Company’s underwriting analysis includes credit verification, independent appraisals, a review of the borrower's financial condition, and the underlying cash flows. These loans are typically originated in amounts of no more than 80% of the appraised value of the property.




14


 


(3) Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)


 

Residential First-Lien Mortgages: We originate adjustable-rate and fixed-rate, one-to-four-family residential real estate loans for the construction, purchase or refinancing of a mortgage.  These loans are collateralized by owner-occupied properties located in the Company’s market area. They are amortized over five to 30 years. Substantially all residential loans secured by first mortgage liens are originated by CNB Mortgage and sold to either the Bank or third-party investors.  Generally, fixed-rate mortgage loans with a maturity or call date of ten years or less and a rate of 5% or more are retained in the Company’s portfolio.  For longer term, fixed-rate residential mortgages without escrow, the Company generally retains the servicing, but sells the right to receive principal and interest to Freddie Mac.  All loans not retained in the portfolio or sold to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Company (FHLMC), also known as Freddie Mac, are sold to unrelated third parties with servicing released.  This practice allows the Company to manage interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and credit risk.  From time to time, the Company may also purchase residential mortgage loans which are originated and serviced by third parties. In an effort to the manage risk of loss and strengthen secondary market liquidity opportunities, management typically uses secondary market underwriting, appraisal, and servicing guidelines.  Loans on one-to-four-family residential real estate are mostly originated in amounts of no more than 85% of appraised value or have private mortgage insurance. Mortgage title insurance and hazard insurance are normally required. Construction loans have a unique risk, because they are secured by an incomplete dwelling. This risk is reduced through periodic site inspections, including at each loan draw period.

 

Residential Second-Lien Mortgages: The Company originates home equity lines of credit and second mortgage loans (loans secured by a second [junior] lien position on one-to-four-family residential real estate).  These loans carry a higher risk than first mortgage residential loans as they are in a second position relating to collateral.  Risk is reduced through underwriting criteria, which include credit verification, appraisals, a review of the borrower's financial condition, and personal cash flows.  A security interest, with title insurance when necessary, is taken in the underlying real estate.

 

Consumer Loans:  The Company funds a variety of consumer loans, including direct and indirect automobile loans, recreational vehicle loans, boat loans, aircraft loans, home improvement loans, and personal loans (collateralized and uncollateralized). Most of these loans carry a fixed rate of interest with principal repayment terms typically ranging from one to ten years, based upon the nature of the collateral and the size of the loan. The majority of consumer loans are underwritten on a secured basis using the underlying collateral being financed or a customer's deposit account. A minimal amount of loans are unsecured, which carry a high risk of loss.

 

 



Allowance for Loan Losses


The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve for probable and inherent losses in the loan portfolio. Credit losses arise primarily from the loan portfolio, but may also be derived from other credit-related sources, when drawn upon, such as commitments, guarantees, and standby letters of credit. Additions are made to the allowance through periodic provisions, which are charged to expense. All losses of principal are charged to the allowance when incurred or when a determination is made that a loss is expected. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

 

The Company has established a process to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and to identify the risks in the loan portfolio. This process consists of the identification of specific reserves for impaired commercial loans and residential mortgages and the calculation of general reserves, which is a formula-driven allocation.

 

The calculation of the general reserve involves several steps. A historical loss factor is applied to each loan by loan type and loan classification. The historical loss factors are calculated using a loan-by-loan, trailing eight-quarter net loss migration analysis for commercial loans. For all other loans, a portfolio-wide, trailing eight-quarter net loss migration analysis is used. Adjustments are then made to the historical loss factors based on current-period quantitative objective elements (delinquency, non-performing assets, classified/criticized loan trends, charge-offs, concentrations of credit, recoveries, etc.) and subjective elements (economic conditions, portfolio growth rate, portfolio management, credit policy, and others). This methodology is applied to the commercial, residential mortgage, and consumer portfolios, and their related off-balance sheet exposures. Any allowance for off-balance sheet exposures is recorded in Other Liabilities.

 

While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

The balance in the allowance for loan losses increased to 1.36% of the loan portfolio at March 31, 2011 from 1.30% of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2010. This increase was principally due to higher allocations for commercial mortgages (amounting to $0.3 million) and consumer-indirect loans (amounting to $0.2 million) based upon higher historical losses.  Another factor considered in the allowance is the level and trend of past due loans.  Loans past due and loans in nonaccrual status (non-performing loans) grew in the first quarter of 2011 both in dollar terms and as a percent of the portfolio, increasing the risk of loss in the portfolio, thus leading to an increase in the allowance for loan losses.  A handful of credit-related factors improved, which positively impacted the level of the allowance: (a) A small improvement in the economy was recognized in our analysis. (b) As of March 31, 2011, approximately 16 basis points or $1.9 million of the allowance was associated with the relatively slow economic conditions compared to 17 basis points or $2.0 million of the allowance at December 31, 2010.  (c) We also considered the current level of net-chargeoffs, which can be an indicator, though indirectly correlated, of losses in the portfolio.  Net chargeoffs as a percentage of the portfolio fell to 16 basis points at March 31, 2011 compared to 40 basis points for the full year of 2010. (d) Finally, the total portfolio balance is considered in our evaluation of the allowance.  As the loan portfolio balance increases, so will the related allowance for loan losses, even when no other factors change. In the first quarter of 2011 the loan portfolio fell $33.2 million, and applying the beginning of the year allowance factor of 1.30%, portfolio shrinkage had a $0.4 million positive impact on the allowance for the quarter.  

 

In monitoring the credit quality of the portfolio, management applies a credit quality indicator to substantially all commercial loans. These quality indicators range from one through eight in increasing risk of loss. These ratings are used as inputs to the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. Loans rated 1 through 4 are generally allocated a lesser percentage allocation in the allowance for loan losses than loans rated from 5 through 8. Unrated loans are allocated a percentage of the allowance for loan losses on a pooled-basis.

 

Loans rated 1 (Superior) include borrowers whose financial condition, liquidity, capitalization, earnings, cash flow, management and capacity to repay are strong.  If deficient in any of these areas, a borrower may still be considered for a 1 rating, if fully secured either by cash, properly margined, listed stock, investment grade corporate bonds, or U.S. Government Securities, (125% collateral value to loan commitment).

(3) Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)

 

A loan rated 2 (Good) would include borrowers who are somewhat more of a credit risk than a 1 rated borrower and therefore require more frequent monitoring.  Those borrowers would have the following qualities: cash flow has been and is expected to be adequate to meet debt service requirements; financial statement is current, of good quality and in adequate detail; financial condition of company compares favorably with the industry averages; earnings are generally stable; borrower consistently adheres to repayment schedule for both principal and interest and covenants; management integrity and ability is considered sound; and industry outlook is acceptable.


Loans rated 3 (Satisfactory) include credits whose performance is generally stable.  Also included in this category are credits where the guarantor is sufficiently strong to support operating losses and has demonstrated a willingness to do so. Additionally, loans risk rated 3 may include the following qualities: borrower’s business is tied to more economically sensitive industries; borrower may have violated one or more financial covenants; occasional requirements for waivers, or amendments may occur, however liquidity and capitalization are expected to continue to be acceptable; integrity of management is acceptable but ability remains to be proven; borrower may not compare well to industry standards; relationship requires a high level of monitoring due to its complexity.  Also, financial data of affiliates may be unavailable or difficult to track; borrower may not provide sufficient documentation for confirming all taxable income/losses but consistently adheres to repayment schedules for both principal and interest.  Borrower may report a high level of contingent liabilities.

 

Loans rated 4 (Watch) include credits which demonstrate any or all of the following criteria: borrower’s or guarantor’s financial performance shows negative trends and yet cash flow remains still adequate to repay debt; loans which continue to pay as agreed but the Bank has not received current financial statements to confirm repayment ability and to enable management to complete a timely annual review; commercial construction loans where the LTV is over 75%; loan has been processed through automated underwriting and does not meet management’s scoring threshold; loans to start-up companies until the borrower’s have achieved stabilized operations (i.e., 1-3 years); and loans recommended for upgrade from problem loan status (5 through 8) would generally pass through the watch category for 6 months to a year unless there are sufficient reasons to bypass the watch rating and be upgraded to a 3 or higher.

 

Loans risk rated 5 (Special Mention) are currently protected but are potentially weak. These loans constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk but not to the point of justifying a classification of substandard. The credit risk may be relatively minor yet constitute an unwarranted risk in light of the circumstances surrounding a specific asset. Loans in this category have potential weaknesses which may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the loan or inadequately protect the Bank's credit position at some future date.  This might include loans which the lending officer may be unable to supervise properly because of: lack of expertise, inadequate loan agreement, the poor condition of or lack of control over collateral, failure to obtain proper documentation or any other deviations from prudent lending practices.  Economic or market conditions which may, in the future, affect the obligor may warrant special mention of the asset. Loans for which an adverse trend in the borrower's operations or an imbalanced position in the balance sheet which has not reached a point where the liquidation is jeopardized may be included in this classification.

 

Loans risk rated 6 (Substandard) are considered substandard. A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.  Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual loans classified substandard. Residential mortgages are not subject to substandard classification unless the following well defined weaknesses have occurred: the ability of the borrower to repay the debt is questionable as evidenced by delinquency of 90 days, and repayment of the debt is dependent on the sale of the underlying real estate. A consumer loan is considered a substandard asset only when it is 90 days past due.

 

Loans risk rated 7 (Doubtful) are categorized as doubtful. These loans have all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors which may work to the advantage and strengthening of the loan, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition, or liquidation procedures, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral and refinancing plans. The entire amount of the loan might not be classified as doubtful when collection of a specific portion appears highly probable. Loans are generally not classified doubtful for an extended period of time (i.e., over a year).

 

Loans classified 8 (Loss) are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.  Losses are taken in the period in which they surface as uncollectible.

 

Residential Mortgage Loans are rated 9. Residential mortgage loans are not subject to the risk ratings specified above unless management wishes to recognize a well defined weakness or loss potential to more accurately reflect credit risk

(3) Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)


 

The following tables present the loan portfolio as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 by credit quality indicator (in thousands). Except for loans in the 9 and unrated categories, credit quality indicators are reassessed for each applicable loan at least annually, generally upon the anniversary of the loan’s origination or receipt and analysis of the borrower’s financial statements, when applicable. Loans in category 9 and unrated are evaluated for credit quality after origination based upon delinquency status. See Aging Analysis table.

(4)   Loan Servicing Assets

 

 

The Company services first-lien, residential loans for Freddie Mac, and certain commercial loans as lead participant.  The associated servicing rights (assets) entitle the Company to a future stream of cash flows based on the outstanding principal balance of the loans and contractual servicing fees.  Failure to service the loans in accordance with contractual requirements may lead to a termination of the servicing rights and the loss of future servicing fees.  

 

The Company services all loans for FHLMC on a non-recourse basis; therefore, its credit risk is limited to temporary advances of funds to FHLMC, while FHLMC retains all credit risk associated with the loans.  Commercial loans are serviced on a non-recourse basis, whereby the Company is subject to credit losses only to the extent of the proportionate share of the loan’s principal balance owned.

 

The Company’s contract to sell loans to FHLMC and to the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) via third-parties contain certain representations and warranties that if not met by the Company would require the repurchase of such loans.  The Company has not historically been subject to a material volume of repurchases nor is it currently.

 

Gross servicing fees earned by the Company for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, amounted to $346,000 and $329,000.  These fees are included in net mortgage servicing income on the statements of income.

(5)   Capital Changes

 

At the Company’s Annual Meeting on April 13, 2011, shareholders authorized 4,000,000 shares of preferred stock, and an increase in the number of authorized common shares to 4,000,000.  These had no impact on the financial statements as of March 31, 2011, and will be reflected in the June 30, 2011 condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

 

(6)   Dividend

 

On January 12, 2011, the Board of Directors declared a semi-annual $5.70 per share dividend on common stock to shareholders of record on January 22, 2011. The dividend was paid on February 1, 2011.


(7)   Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share includes the maximum dilutive effect of stock issuable upon conversion of stock options. Calculations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 follow (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

(8)   Segment Information

 

The Company is organized into three reportable segments: the Company and its banking and Florida trust subsidiaries (Bank), CNB Mortgage Company (CNBM), and Genesee Valley Trust Company (GVT). These have been segmented due to differences in their distribution channels, the volatility of their earnings, and internal and external financial reporting requirements.  The interim period reportable segment information for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 follows (dollars in thousands).

(9) Interest Rate Swap Agreement

 

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk as a result of both the timing of changes in interest rates of assets and liabilities, and the magnitude of those changes.  In order to reduce this risk for the Company’s $30 million floating-rate junior subordinated debenture, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in 2007, which expires on June 15, 2011.  This interest rate swap agreement modifies the repricing characteristics of the debentures from a floating-rate debt (LIBOR +1.40%) to a fixed-rate debt (5.54%). For this swap agreement, amounts receivable or payable are recognized as accrued under the terms of the agreement, and the net differential is recorded as an adjustment to interest expense of the related debentures. The interest rate swap agreement is designated as a cash flow hedge. Therefore, the effective portion of the swap’s unrealized gain or loss was recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. The ineffective portion of the unrealized gain or loss, if any, is immediately reported in other operating income.  The swap agreement is carried at fair value in Other Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Condition.

 

In consideration of the pending expiration of the aforementioned agreement, the Company entered into a forward interest rate swap agreement on July 1, 2010.  This swap becomes effective on June 15, 2011 and expires on June 15, 2021.  This interest rate swap agreement will modify the repricing characteristics of the Company’s $30 million floating-rate junior subordinated debenture from a floating-rate debt (LIBOR +1.40%) to a fixed-rate debt (4.81%). The accounting for this is the same as the existing swap agreement.

(10) Fair Values of Financial Instruments

 

Current accounting pronouncements require disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments. Fair value is generally defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly, non-distressed sale between market participants at the measurement date. With the exception of certain marketable securities and one-to-four-family residential mortgage loans originated for sale, the Company’s financial instruments are not readily marketable and market prices do not exist. The Company, in attempting to comply with accounting disclosure pronouncements, has not attempted to market its financial instruments to potential buyers, if any exist. Since negotiated prices in illiquid markets depend upon the then present motivations of the buyer and seller, it is reasonable to assume that actual sales prices could vary widely from any estimate of fair value made without the benefit of negotiations.  Additionally, changes in market interest rates can dramatically impact the value of financial instruments in a short period of time. Finally, the Company expects to retain substantially all assets and liabilities measured at fair value to their maturity or call date.  Accordingly, the fair values disclosed herein are unlikely to represent the instruments’ liquidation values, and do not, with the exception of securities, consider exit costs, since they cannot be reasonably estimated by management.

 

The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments are as follows (in thousands):

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

 

Cash and Equivalents

 

For these short-term instruments that generally mature in 90 days or less, or carry a market rate of interest, the carrying value approximates fair value.

 

Securities (Available-for-Sale and Held-to-Maturity)

 

Fair values for securities are determined using independent pricing services and market-participating brokers, or matrix models using observable inputs. The pricing service and brokers use a variety of techniques to arrive at fair value including market maker bids, quotes and pricing models.  Inputs to their pricing models include recent trades, benchmark interest rates, spreads, and actual and projected cash flows. Management obtains a single market quote or price estimate for each security.  None of the quotes or estimates is considered a binding quote, as management would only request one if management had the positive intent to sell the securities in the foreseeable future and management believed the price quoted represented one from a market participant with the intent and the ability to purchase. Internal matrix models are used for non-traded municipal securities.  Matrix models consider observable inputs, such as benchmark interest rates and spreads.

 

Certain securities’ fair values are determined using unobservable inputs and include bank debt based CDO’s. There is a very limited market and limited demand for these CDO’s due to imbalances in marketplace liquidity and the uncertainty in evaluating the credit risk in these securities. In determining fair value for these securities, management considered various inputs. Management considered fair values from several brokerage firms which were determined using assumptions as to expected cash flows and approximate risk-adjusted discount rates.




28


 



(10) Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)

 

Loans

 

Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by interest type such as floating, adjustable, and fixed-rate loans, and by portfolios such as commercial, mortgage, and consumer.

 

The fair value of performing loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the loans' estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan category. The estimate of maturity is based on the average maturity for each loan classification.

 

Delinquent loans (not in foreclosure) are valued using the method noted above, and also consider the fair value of collateral for collateral-dependent loans. While credit risk is a component of the discount rate used to value loans, delinquent loans are presumed to possess additional risk. Therefore, the calculated fair value of loans is reduced by the allowance for loan losses.

 

The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based on outstanding investor commitments or in the absence of such commitments, is based on current yield requirements or quoted market prices.

 

Loan Servicing Assets

 

Fair value is determined through estimates provided by a third party. To estimate the fair value, the third party considers market prices for similar assets and the present value of expected future cash flows associated with the servicing assets calculated using assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future servicing income and expense. Such assumptions include estimates of the cost of servicing loans, loan default rates, an appropriate discount rate, and prepayment speeds. The estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights may vary significantly in subsequent periods due to changing interest rates and the effect thereof on prepayment speeds. The key economic assumptions used to determine the fair value of mortgage servicing rights at March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the sensitivity of such values to changes in those assumptions are summarized in the 2010 Annual Report and are substantially unchanged.


Deposits

 

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and money market accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach that applies current market rates to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities of time deposits.

 

Borrowings

 

The fair value of borrowings is based on quoted market prices for the identical debt when traded as an asset in an active market.  If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the borrowings' estimated maturity using current market rates.

 

Junior Subordinated Debentures

 

There is no trading market for the Company’s debentures.  Therefore the fair value of junior subordinated debentures is determined using an expected present value technique. The fair value of the adjustable-rate debentures approximates their face amount, while the fair value of fixed-rate debentures is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the debenture’s estimated maturity using current market rates.

 

Interest Rate Swap Agreement (Swap)

 

The fair value of the swap was the amount the Company would have expected to pay to terminate the agreement and was based upon the present value of expected future cash flows using the LIBOR swap curve, the basis for the underlying interest rate.  

 

Other Financial Instruments

 

The fair values of letters of credit and unused lines of credit approximate the fee charged to make the commitments.

(11) Fair Values Measurements

 

Some of the financial instruments disclosed in the previous note are measured at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Accounting principles establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows.


 

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.


The following table presents for each of the fair-value hierarchy levels the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis at March 31, 2011, by caption on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (dollars in thousands).

(12) Accounting Pronouncements Implemented in the Current Year

 

We implemented the following Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) as of January 1, 2011 with no impact to our financial condition or results of operations:

 

ASU 2010-28, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance and examples in paragraph 350-20-35-30, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.

 

ASU 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). ASU201-29 specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity (acquirer) should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. It also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings.




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

 

The following is our discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected the Company's financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. This discussion and analysis supplements our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2010 Annual Report.

 

Critical Accounting Estimate

 

We are instructed, pursuant to SEC guidance, to evaluate and disclose those accounting estimates that we judge to be critical - those most important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results, and that require our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments. We consider the Allowance for Loan Losses (allowance) as critical given the inherent uncertainty in evaluating the levels of the allowance required to reflect credit losses in the portfolio.  We also consider the valuation of investment securities for Other-Than-Temporary-Impairment (OTTI) as critical in the current market environment given the lack of an active and liquid market for a small number of our holdings. There has been no change in our methodology for estimating the allowance or securities’ valuation, which is fully described within the 2010 Annual Report.

 

 



Financial Overview

 

Diluted earnings per common share for the first quarter of 2011 rose 22.9% to $9.03 from $7.35 in the same quarter of 2010. Net income in these periods was $4.3 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Total assets at March 31, 2011 were $1,711.3 million compared to $1,661.5 million at December 31, 2010 and $1,613.1 million at March 31, 2010.

 

The current quarter’s earnings, as compared with the first quarter of 2010, reflected a continued rise in total revenues (net interest income and other income) and lower provision for loan losses, offset by higher operating expenses.  Net interest income improved due to higher balances, but was negatively impacted by a narrowing of the net interest margin. The lower provision for loan losses occurred due to improved credit quality conditions. Other income improved due to trust and investment income as well as income from our investment in Cephas Capital Partners.  Increases in operating expenses reflected our continued franchise growth.

 

The current quarter’s balance sheet growth occurred almost exclusively in federal funds sold, funded by strong deposit growth.   The investment portfolio increased modestly.  The loan portfolio declined nearly 3% on lackluster demand in all loan portfolios combined with lower commercial line of credit usage.  Off-balance sheet, both the book value and fair value of Assets under Administration increased, reflecting new customer accounts and assets and continued strong stock market performance.

 

We are encouraged by the continued growth in deposits as a reflection of the strength of our franchise. However, we expect that without a reasonable turnaround in loan demand, net interest margin, accounting for over two-thirds of revenue, will continue to decline due to the investment of these excess deposits in low-yielding federal funds.


Financial Condition (three months ended March 31, 2011)

 

At March 31, 2011, total assets were $1,711.3 million, up $49.8 million or 3.0% from $1,661.5 million at December 31, 2010.

 

Cash and cash equivalents (cash, balances with other financial institutions, and federal funds sold) were $216.4 million, rising $78.1 million on strong deposit growth and declines in loan portfolio balances.

 

The securities portfolio grew $5.1 million or 1.9% from December 31, 2010. In contrast to much of 2010, we experienced fewer security calls (i.e., issuers repaid debt obligations before their stated maturities).   This, along with modest increases in market interest rates, afforded us the opportunity to grow the portfolio and invest excess deposits.  Considering the current low loan demand and high federal funds sold balance, we intend to grow the investment portfolio in the coming quarters to improve overall interest margin. Our ability to do so will be restricted by the supply of high-quality US government sponsored enterprise obligations and municipal obligations, our preferred investment choices.

 

The securities portfolio consists principally of New York State municipal obligations (71.0% of total at March 31, 2011) with the remainder mostly in US government sponsored enterprise obligations.  The total fair value of both the available-for-sale and the held-to-maturity securities portfolios exceeded amortized cost as a result of a decrease in mid- and long-term market rates since the securities’ purchase. In both portfolios we hold some securities with fair values below their amortized cost and we concluded at March 31, 2011, that there are none considered to be other than temporarily impaired.

 

Much continues to be written about high debt loads of municipalities and other government entities.  There has been concern from time to time of the possibilities of default given the budget pressures, including structural deficits, that many municipalities face.  Our Company is an investor in state and municipal obligations. We invest only in New York State based obligors.  These investments are used to re-cycle the deposits of our local municipalities, and since we invest in NYS obligations, the money stays local and earns a tax-advantaged return.  Prior to purchasing an investment, our Treasury team performs a financial analysis of the obligor or the obligation using such tools as internal models, particularly for non-rated issuances, third-party analyses, and rating agency guidance. At March 31, 2011, 91% of the portfolio was rated A or better, 4% BBB, and 5% was unrated. In addition, 96% of the obligations were backed by third-party credit support, and 97% were general obligations of the municipalities with unlimited taxing authority. We found no evidence of credit deterioration in the portfolio at March 31, 2011.

 

 

Loans, exclusive of loans held for sale, fell $23.3 million during the first quarter of 2011 with the gross portfolio totaling $1,171.2 million compared to $1,204.9 million at December 31, 2010. This decline’s timing is consistent with the first quarter of 2010, when we experienced a $7.9 million decline in the portfolio. However, the size and scale of 2011’s decline was not anticipated and came across all loan types.  Commercial and industrial loans fell the greatest ($14.2 million).  This drop was mainly caused by a combination of seasonal paydowns of lines of credit and lower borrowing demand overall. Indirectly originated automobile loans, the other main contributor to the declining loan balance, fell $8.1 million. During this quarter we saw a resurgence of lending by captive auto finance companies, national and regional banks, and the U.S. government’s majority-owned Ally Bank, which, with its declining funding costs, low effective tax rate, and exclusive or partially-exclusive financing agreements with GM and Chrysler, controls a substantial portion of the auto-finance supply and can offer lower interest rates on loan products.  In the coming quarter we expect a return to modest growth in each of the portfolios. Please see the section entitled “Impaired Loans and Non-Performing Assets” for a discussion of loan credit quality.

 

Total deposits at March 31, 2011, were $1,522.9 million and were up $49.6 million from December 31, 2010 with nearly all of the growth coming from governmental entities.  Growth occurred mostly in money-market accounts.  We continued to experience declines in consumers’ time deposits, and expect that to recur through 2011 as a result of the generally low interest rate environment, in which depositors prefer to keep excess funds liquid, awaiting higher rates and investment returns.  Since most of these matured time deposits were redeposited in money-market and savings accounts, our overall deposit balances were not impacted, but our interest costs declined. We expect municipal deposits, which increased this quarter consistent with seasonal fluctuations, to decline in the coming quarter.  We expect consumer and commercial deposits to grow modestly.

 

As expected, total borrowings fell $0.3 million during the quarter due to the scheduled final payment on the Genesee Valley Trust Company acquisition. We do not expect to incur new long-term borrowings or need to access overnight borrowings for the foreseeable future, because the balance of federal funds sold and the strength of consumer and business deposit inflows should be sufficient to fund the increases we expect in earning assets and the deposit outflows of municipalities.

 

 

Results of Operations (three months ended March 31, 2011)

 

Net interest income increased $0.3 million or 2.3% for the quarter over the same quarter in 2010, reflecting the positive impact of the balance sheet's year-over-year growth, offset by a narrowing of interest rate margin and spread. With general interest rates remaining low we have seen both asset yields and liability costs fall as maturing products are replaced at lower interest rates.  However, given the very low interest rate environment, we’re finding it increasingly difficult to lower rates on deposit products, yet rates continue to fall on earning assets, thus negatively impacting our interest rate spread and margin.

 

On a tax-equivalent basis, compared to the same quarter in 2010, the overall growth in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities had a $0.5 million positive impact on net interest income, and the change in rates had a $0.2 million negative impact. Net interest margin was 3.96% for the first quarter of 2011, down from 4.17% during the same quarter in 2010 and down from 4.20% in the fourth quarter of 2010.  As we discussed in our 2010 Annual Report, we expect net interest income (revenue) to increase year-on-year due to our balance sheet growth, but we expect little positive impact from rate changes given the current interest rate environment and our anticipation of a higher rate environment and flattening yield curve towards the second half of the year.

The provision for loan losses was $0.8 million for the quarter, significantly lower than the $2.4 million for the same quarter last year. The lower provision in the 2011 quarter was mostly driven by stable asset quality, lower net charge-offs, and a decline in the overall loan portfolio balance. The higher provision in 2010 was mostly attributable to an impairment provision on a commercial and industrial loan. Details of the allowance for loan losses and net charge-offs for the year to date is presented in Footnote 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Total other income for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 increased 12.1% to $7.2 million from $6.4 million in 2010.  Service charges on deposit accounts were relatively unchanged with lower revenues from our Courtesy Limit product offset by higher revenues for electronic banking services.  Changes in banking regulations for overdraft payment services, requiring affirmative customer opt-in and other limits on charges were effective in the middle of 2010, reducing year-over-year revenue.  Account maintenance service charges (included in service charges) were down slightly year-on-year due to higher customer balances offsetting their periodic fees. Electronic banking services (debit and ATM card revenues) continued to increase with consumers shifting from cash and checks to electronic transactions.  A consequence of the passage of Financial Reform Act is the potential negative impact on debit card interchange income.  The so-called “Durbin Amendment” requires the Federal Reserve Board to adopt regulations limiting interchange fees that can be charged in an electronic debit card transaction to the “reasonable and proportionate” costs related to the incremental cost of the transaction. Banks under $10 billion in assets are exempt, which would include the Company.  However, the Company contracts with large debit card processors with which we have relatively weak bargaining power.  It is possible these processors, as a result of the Act, will earn lower revenues, leaving less revenue per transaction for the Company from this $3.4 million per year revenue source.  The Federal Reserve Board has until July 2011 to complete its regulations, so the ultimate timing and extent of impact to the Company is unknown.

 

Trust and investment services income grew 10.4% to $3.1 million for the 2011 quarter compared to $2.8 million for the same quarter in 2010. Total assets under administration (see table below) have grown year to year due to both organic growth in underlying accounts and higher fair value of assets within the accounts resulting from improved equity and bond markets.  The stock market’s improved performance through the latter half of the first quarter bolstered fee income. We anticipate book value growth to continue into the coming quarters with year-over-year growth rates expected to be in the 10% range, We anticipate fair value growth will at least mirror book value growth.

The net gain on sale of mortgages was unchanged in 2011 from 2010 at $0.4 million.  Poor weather and the continued slow pace of economic improvement in the housing sector in our region, led to fewer home purchase financings in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010.  However, this was offset by a slight increase in refinanced mortgages, resulting in only a modest decrease in total mortgage closings (See table below).  Entering the beginning of the home selling season in our region, we expect closings in the coming quarter to be higher than this quarter’s, but much lower than the same quarter last year when government stimulus programs resulted in much higher than normal activity.  This will also lead to a lower net gain on sale of mortgages in the second quarter of 2011 compared to 2010.

Loan servicing fee income continued to rise and we expect this trend to continue as long as rates remain historically low and we sell loans with servicing retained. The heavy mortgage refinance activity during the past few years had led us to sell more originations to third parties rather than add these low-rate, long-term assets to our portfolio.  We service many of these originated loans on behalf of Freddie Mac.  The amount of loans serviced for them stood at $446.0 million at March 31, 2011 compared to $399.1 million at March 31, 2010.  We also earn servicing fees from sold commercial loan participations. The total balance of participations sold was $115.2 million at March 31, 2011 compared to $127.3 million at March 31, 2010.

 

Other operating income grew nearly $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010.  Of this amount, $0.3 million was due to earnings from our investment in Cephas Capital Partners which is in a wind down phase.  We expect continued earnings from this investment during the year, however the extent and timing cannot be determined, since it is dependent on the successful liquidation of underlying investments.

 

Total operating expenses grew 11.8% or $1.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same three-month period in 2010. All major categories increased, and were consistent with the growth in our franchise-loans, deposits, assets under administration, etc.  The largest component increase was in salaries and employee benefits reflecting the addition of new staff and raises for incumbents. We expect similar results for the second quarter of the year.

 

Occupancy costs have increased with the addition of new offices including our newest banking office in the Town of Webster, New York.  Marketing and public relations expenses have increased due to an increase in television advertising, and continued promotional activities in Sarasota, Florida related to our trust business.  Technology and data processing expenses, professional and other services expenses, and office supplies and related expenses have increased consistent with the franchise growth.

 

The quarterly effective tax rate was 27.0% in 2011 and 26.0% in 2010.  The change in the effective rate is attributable to the ratio of tax-exempt income to total income. It is likely this rate will continue to rise through 2011 due to lower tax-exempt income from declining interest rates on these bonds.


 

Liquidity

 

 

 

There has been no material change from December 31, 2010 in our available sources of wholesale liquidity from either the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLB) or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.  At March 31, 2011 we had no overnight or short-term borrowings outstanding, and during the quarter we did not utilize any overnight or short-term borrowings. Given our high level of federal funds sold, continued deposit inflows and the slow pace of loan growth and investment purchases, we foresee no borrowings in the next quarter.

 

 

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, cash flows from all activities provided $78.1 million in net cash and cash equivalents versus $56.4 million for the same period in 2010.  In both years the principal source of cash inflows was deposits.  

 

 

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $14.2 million in 2011 versus $3.1 million in 2010.  Both the largest source and use of operating cash in 2011 and 2010 were loans held for sale with origination activity in both years fairly similar, but with higher sale proceeds in 2011 due to a high year-end 2010 balance of loans held for sale. Excluding the effect of loans held for sale, operating activities provided $4.4 million cash for the three-month period in 2011 and $4.1 million in 2010.

 

 

 

During the first quarter of 2011, investing activities provided $17.4 million in cash and equivalents compared to $6.9 million in 2010. Significant investing activities in both periods occurred in the loan and securities portfolios.  During both years the loan portfolios were a source of funding as principal collections exceeded net new loan originations. Net securities activities used cash in 2011 (increased the portfolio). In 2010, maturities and calls of higher yield investments equaled our new investments.  

 

 

 

Cash provided by financing activities was $46.5 million in 2011 versus $46.3 million in 2010.  The main contributor in both years was deposit activity.

 

 

 

For the remainder of 2011, cash for growth is expected to come primarily from operating activities and customer deposits.  Customer deposit growth is expected to come mainly from Monroe and Ontario Counties’ consumers and businesses.

Contractual obligations and commitments

 

Less material, but a part of our ongoing operations, and expected to be funded through normal operations, are liquidity uses such as lease obligations, long-term debt repayments, and other funding commitments. There has been no material change from the information disclosed in our 2010 Annual Report.

 

Also, as discussed more fully in our 2010 Annual Report, in the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent liabilities are outstanding. Because many commitments and almost all letters of credit expire without being funded in whole or in part, the notional amounts are not estimates of future cash flows.  The following table presents the notional amount of the Company's significant commitments. Most of these commitments are not included in the Company's consolidated balance sheet (in thousands).

Capital Resources

 

Under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, as of March 31, 2011, the Company and Bank are categorized as "well-capitalized."  This is unchanged from December 31, 2010, and management anticipates no change in this classification for the foreseeable future

 

On September 12, 2010, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision released its proposal for revising capital requirements for internationally active financial institutions. These new standards are called Basel III.  As a signatory to this proposal, the United States banking regulators will be revising capital standards for financial institutions in the U.S.  Accordingly, our capital standards will change.  However, regulators have not released any new standards and are not expected to do so for some time.  Furthermore, the international standards do not become fully effective until 2018, which is likely when the U.S. standards would become fully effective.  It is too early to determine whether there will be any material impact to the Company.

 

In order to ensure the Company has the capital tools available to it to react to regulatory changes, on April 13, 2011, shareholders approved an increase in the number of authorized common shares, and the authorization of a new class of preferred stock.  We do not contemplate issuing preferred stock in the foreseeable future.  Additional shares of common stock might be issued in consideration of stock-based compensation plans, stock-splits, or stock dividends.

The provision for loan losses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 was significantly lower than the same period in 2010, reflecting lower loan growth and improved credit quality compared to 2010. The balance in the allowance for loan losses increased during the quarter as a result of higher quantitative factors from the eight-quarter loss migration applied to the commercial mortgage and the consumer indirect portfolio.  Conversely the allowance associated with commercial and industrial loans was reduced due to portfolio improvement, lower quantitative factors, and a decline in the portfolio’s balance. As discussed more fully in the 2010 Annual Report, we determine the amount necessary in the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors.  Based on our current assessment of the loan portfolio, we believe the amount of the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2011 is adequate at $15.9 million. However, should non-performing and non-accrual loans increase, or should we experience declines in customers’ credit quality measured through loan impairment or internal loan classifications, we may need to establish a higher allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans, which would necessitate an increase to the provision for loan losses.  

 

 

 

Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2011 were $0.5 million, compared to $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2010.  Net charge-offs to average loans fell in 2011 to a lower than average 16 basis points compared to 76 basis points in 2010. The 2010 figure was high due to a large charge-off on an impaired commercial loan with an impaired reserve. In the coming quarter, we anticipate annualized net charge-offs in the 20-35 basis points range if we experience no significant portfolio deterioration.  

 

Total non-performing loans were $23.0 million at March 31, 2011, up slightly from $22.8 million at year end, but down from $25.1 million at March 31, 2010.  The general decline in non-performing loans during twelve month period came mainly in commercial and industrial loans to due improvement in one significant relationship.  Non-performing first lien residential loans increased year over year, due to an increase in the number of borrowers unable to make timely principal payments or property tax payments.

 

Though a comparatively modest amount, other real-estate owned has also increased during the twelve month period, but is down from year end 2010 due to property liquidations. Given the current economic climate and overall growth in non-performing loans, we can expect additional foreclosures in the coming periods.

 

In the process of resolving nonperforming loans, we may choose to restructure the contractual terms of certain loans and attempt to work out alternative payment schedules with the borrower in order to avoid foreclosure of collateral. Any loans that are modified are evaluated to determine if they are "troubled debt restructurings (TDR)" and if so, are evaluated for impairment.  A TDR is defined as a loan restructure where for legal or economic reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, the creditor grants one or more concessions to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Terms of loan agreements may be modified to fit the ability of the borrower to repay in respect of its current financial status and restructuring of loans may include the transfer of assets from the borrower to satisfy debt, a modification of loan terms, or a combination of the two. If a satisfactory restructure and payment arrangement cannot be reached, the loan may be referred to legal counsel for foreclosure.

 

As of March 31, 2011 there were two lending relationships, one totaling $5.0 million and one totaling $0.3 million, that were considered  TDR’s due to the nature of the concessions granted due to the borrower. These balances are included in non-performing loans. For the largest one, we renegotiated certain terms of their loans in 2010.  The significant term modified was the monthly principal and interest payment amount.  We agreed to forbear our rights under default provisions in the loan agreements on the condition that the borrower made monthly payments which were significantly less than those required under the terms of the original loan agreements. The customer was in compliance with the terms of the forbearance agreement which expired on March 31, 2011. We have renewed the forbearance agreement for an additional 24 months with higher monthly payments than under the previous agreement.

 

Following the implementation of ASU 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring, which was issued in April 2011, and is discussed below, it is possible we will experience an increase in the volume of loans considered TDR’s.


Impaired Loans


Total impaired loans declined from March 31, 2010 due to improvements in commercial and industrial loans.  Since December 31, 2010, total impaired loans increased $1.1 million mostly due to a handful of small commercial real estate relationships. At March 31, 2011 we identified a total of 96 loans totaling $22.8 million that were considered impaired.  Of these, 17, with a balance outstanding of $3.7 million had specific reserves calculated through a detailed analysis amounting to $0.9 million. The remaining 79 loans totaling $19.1 million were evaluated for impairment on a collective basis.

 

Albeit modest, we do see signs of improving regional economic conditions, but their positive impact will take time to be realized.  We can anticipate more loans, though we know of no material ones that will become impaired in the coming quarters.  Concurrently, we expect some loans, which are currently impaired, to improve over this same period. Accordingly we do not expect the level of impaired loans to substantially decline during the June 30, 2011 quarter.


 

Impact of Financial Regulation Legislation

 

Management continues to navigate the myriad regulations and pronouncements resulting from the July 21, 2010 passing of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Financial Reform Act”). Most of the major regulations have yet to be enacted, but planning and managing their implementation requires considerable forethought.  Our employees are working tirelessly to develop cost-effective solutions.  Items of particular concern include the following:

 

The so-called “Durbin Amendment” requires the Federal Reserve Board to adopt regulations limiting interchange fees that can be charged in an electronic debit card transaction to the “reasonable and proportionate” costs related to the incremental cost of the transaction. Banks under $10 billion in assets are exempt, which would include the Company.  However, the Company contracts with large debit card processors with which we have relatively weak bargaining power.  It is possible these processors, as a result of the Act, will earn lower revenues, leaving less revenue per transaction for the Company.  The Federal Reserve Board has until July 2011 to complete its regulations, so the timing and extent of impact to the Company is unknown.

 

Proposed regulations on “minimum standards for mortgages” in section 1141 of the Financial Reform Act and related proposed amendments to Regulation Z would prohibit our offering of our popular three-year callable mortgage.  This product has been successfully managed by our borrowers for years, and has allowed us to finance their home purchases using an interest-rate risk managed product whose yield matches our cost of funds.  This contrasts to the typical 30-year fixed rate mortgage, which if placed on a bank’s balance sheet is funded by short-term deposits, leading to a significant asset-liability mismatch, and a high interest rate risk, a risk we do not want to take.

 

In the first quarter of 2011, the FDIC finalized its new assessment system in accordance with the Financial Reform Act.  The changes will go into effect beginning with the second quarter and will be assessed against our prepayments to the FDIC at the end of September 2011. The FDIC Board approved a final rule that changes the assessment base for deposit insurance, adopts a new large-bank pricing assessment scheme, and sets a target size for the Deposit Insurance Fund.  The rule -- as mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act -- finalizes a target size for the Deposit Insurance Fund at 2 percent of insured deposits. It also implements a lower assessment rate schedule when the fund reaches 1.15 percent and, in lieu of dividends, provides for a lower rate schedule when the reserve ratio reaches 2 percent and 2.5 percent. As mandated by the Financial Reform Act, the rule changes the assessment base from adjusted domestic deposits to a bank’s average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity. The rule defines tangible equity as Tier 1 capital. The rule lowers overall assessment rates in order to generate the same approximate amount of insurance premiums under the new larger base as was raised under the old base. The largest banks (over $10 billion in assets) are expected to pay higher insurance premiums, while smaller banks, ours included, should see lower relative premiums. Using an assessment calculator provided by the FDIC and data from our December 31, 2010 assessment, we estimate our annualized premiums may fall as much as $1.0 million.

 

 

Recent Fiscal Matters

 

On March 31, 2011, the New York State Legislature enacted the state’s fiscal 2012 budget.  Among provisions of the law was the permanent enactment of the state’s income tax regime for banks. These provisions previously sunsetted, by law, on a periodic basis, making state tax planning difficult and uncertain. While we do not expect this change to have an immediate impact, we believe the stability provided by the regime’s permanence will lead to more efficient tax planning and compliance.

 

 

 

 

 

Recent Accounting Standards to be implemented in Future Periods

 

 

 

The following presents a summary of Accounting Standards Updates (ASU’s), exclusive of technical correction ASU’s that will be subject to implementation in future periods.

 

 

 

ASU 2011-02.  A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring, issued April, 2011.   The amendments in this Update clarify the guidance on a creditor’s evaluation of whether it has granted a concession. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, a creditor must separately conclude that both of the following exist: 1. The restructuring constitutes a concession and 2. The debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The amendments in this Update are effective for us for the third quarter of 2011, and are to be applied retrospectively to the beginning of 2011. We have not analyzed the impact of adopting these amendments.  However, following adoption, we may identify loans that are newly considered impaired. For purposes of measuring impairment of those loans, we will apply the amendments prospectively for the third quarter of 2011.

 

 

 

ASU 2011-03. Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements, issued April 2011. The main objective in developing this Update is to improve the accounting for repurchase agreements (repos) and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The amendments in this Update remove from the assessment of effective control (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion.

Other criteria applicable to the assessment of effective control are not changed by the amendments in this Update. The guidance in this Update is effective for us on January 1, 2012. Since the Company does not currently engage in these types of transactions, the Update should have no impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

 

 

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Asset / Liability Management Review

 

 

As set forth in our 2010 Annual Report, we predicted market interest rates for 2011 would remain fairly steady for most of the year at current historic lows with an increase in the fourth quarter of the year.  Upon review of recent economic, fiscal, and monetary reports, including a review of the Federal Open Market Committee’s minutes, we have not changed our prediction.

 

 

 

We measure net interest income at-risk by estimating the changes in net interest income resulting from instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in interest rates of plus- or minus- 200 basis points over a twelve-month period.  This provides a basis or benchmark for our Asset/Liability Committee to manage our interest rate risk profile. Presented below is a table showing our interest rate risk profile at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Our model suggests our interest rate risk has increased slightly from year end for a smaller upward change in rates (+100 basis points), and improved slightly for larger change in rates both upward and downward. Our exposure to smaller increasing rates has increased, because, if interest rates move upward our liability costs (deposits and borrowings) will rise faster than our asset yields. We also believe this is the most likely scenario with rates more likely to rise than fall. Our decreased exposure in a downward rate scenario is due principally to loans which have reached floor interest rates.



 

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

 

 

 

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of March 31, 2011, that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c)) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

 

 

 

Also, there have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

CANANDAIGUA NATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

 

 

Item 1.  Legal proceedings

 

 

 

 

The Company and its subsidiaries are, from time to time, parties to or otherwise involved in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business as either plaintiffs or defendants. Management does not believe that there is any pending or threatened proceeding against the Company or its subsidiaries which, if determined adversely, would have a material effect on the Company's business, results of operations, or financial condition.

 

 

 

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

 

 

 

There has been no material change to the risk factors disclosed in the 2010 Annual Report.

 

 

 

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

 

 

The following table sets forth, for the monthly period indicated in 2011, the total number of shares purchased and the price paid per share by The Canandaigua National Bank and Trust Company (Bank) for the Arthur S. Hamlin Award, the Canandaigua National Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) and the Canandaigua National Corporation for treasury.  Each of these entities is considered an affiliated purchaser of the Company under Item 703 of Regulation S-K.  Shares repurchased by Company are not part of a publicly announced plan or program.  The Bank, ESOP, and Company purchase prices per share were determined based on the most recent price established at the sealed-bid auction immediately preceding the purchase. Purchases occur on an ad-hoc basis when shares become available in the marketplace and the Company is interested in purchasing these shares for the corporate purposes discussed above. Sales occur when corporate needs require the use of shares and there are none available in the market at the time.

The OTC Bulletin Board® (OTCBB) is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in over-the-counter (OTC) equity securities. An OTC equity security generally is any equity that is not listed or traded on NASDAQ® or a national securities exchange. The OTCBB is a quotation medium for subscribing members, not an issuer listing service, and should not be confused with The NASDAQ Stock MarketSM.  Investors must contact a broker/dealer to trade OTCBB securities. Investors do not have direct access to the OTCBB service. The Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC's) Order-Handling Rules which apply to NASDAQ-listed securities do not apply to OTCBB securities.  The OTCBB market quotations set forth below reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.
