PEOPLES BANCORPORATION, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Peoples Bancorporation, Inc., (the “Company’) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, The Peoples National Bank, Bank of Anderson, N. A., and Seneca National Bank (collectively referred to as the “Banks”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Banks operate under individual national bank charters and provide full banking services to customers. The Banks are subject to regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”). The Company is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”).
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of these policies is included in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and incorporated herein by reference.
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
Cash and cash equivalents includes currency and coin, cash items in process of collection, amounts due from banks and federal funds sold. All have maturities of three months or less.
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Earnings (loss) per common share is computed and presented in accordance with the related topic in the Financial Accounts Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification. The assumed conversion of stock options creates the difference between basic and diluted net income per share. Income per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each period presented. Stock options on 137,778 and 154,868 shares of the Company’s common stock are excluded from the computation of net loss per diluted share at March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to their exercise prices being greater that the market value of shares and the net loss in the 2010 period.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES
At the time of purchase of a security, the Company designates the security as available for sale or held to maturity, depending upon investment objectives, liquidity needs and intent. Securities held to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for premium amortized or discount accreted, if any. The Company has the positive intent and ability to hold such securities to maturity. Securities available for sale are stated at estimated fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from income and reported net of tax as accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Interest earned on investment securities is included in interest income. Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities are reported in the consolidated statements of income and determined using the adjusted cost of the specific security sold. Trading securities are carried at market value and changes in market value are recorded as realized gains or losses at each period end.
Securities are summarized as follows as of March 31, 2011 (tabular amounts in thousands):

The Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until such time as the value recovers or the securities mature. The Company believes, based on industry analyst reports and credit ratings, that the deterioration in value is attributable to changes in market interest rates and not in the credit quality of the issuers, and therefore, these losses are not considered other-than-temporary.
OTHER INVESTMENTS, at cost
The Banks, as member institutions, are required to own certain stock investments in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and the Federal Reserve Bank. These investments are carried at cost. No ready market exists for these stocks and they have no quoted market values.

The Company, through the Banks, makes loans to individuals and small- to medium-sized businesses for various personal and commercial purposes, primarily in South Carolina. Credit concentrations can exist in relation to individual borrowers or groups of borrowers, certain types of collateral, certain types of industries, certain loan products, or certain regions of the country. Credit risk associated with these concentrations could arise when a significant amount of loans, with similar characteristics, are simultaneously impacted by changes in economic or other conditions that cause their probability of repayment to be adversely affected. The Company regularly monitors its credit concentrations. The Company does not have a significant concentration in any individual borrower. No significant portion of its loans is concentrated within a single industry or group of related industries and the Company does not have any foreign loans. The Company does, however, have a geographic concentration of customers and borrowers because most of its customers and borrowers are located in the Upstate area of South Carolina, and most of the real estate securing mortgage loans is located in this area. There are no material seasonal factors that would have an adverse effect on the Company.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying loans as to credit risk. Loans classified as substandard or special mention are reviewed monthly by the Company for further deterioration or improvement to determine if appropriately classified. All commercial loans greater than $50,000 are reviewed when originated and a sample of smaller consumer relationships are reviewed after origination. Larger relationships are reviewed on an annual basis or more frequently if needed. In addition, during the renewal process of any loans, as well if a loan becomes past due, the Company will evaluate the loan grade.
Loans excluded from the scope of the review process above are generally classified as pass credits until: (a) they become past due; (b) management becomes aware of deterioration in the credit worthiness of the borrower; or (c) the borrower contacts one of the Banks for a modification. In these circumstances, the loan is specifically evaluated for potential classification as to special mention or substandard, or may even be charged-off. The following definitions are used for risk ratings:
Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loans or of the Bank’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the obligors or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have well-defined 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.
Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, condition, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

FAIR VALUE
The FASB Accounting Standards Codification provides a framework for measuring and disclosing fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and requires disclosures about the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized in the balance sheet in periods subsequent to initial recognition, whether the measurements are made on a recurring basis (for example, available-for-sale investment securities) or on a nonrecurring basis (for example, impaired loans).
Fair value is identified as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The standard establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
|
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasury Securities and other securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
|
Level 2
|
Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments and derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes U. S. Government and agency mortgage-backed debt securities and impaired loans that are carried at the appraisal value of the underlying collateral.
|
14
Level 3
|
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. For example, this category generally includes certain private equity investments, retained residual interests in securitizations, residential mortgage servicing rights, and highly-structured or long-term derivative contracts.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value.
Available for sale investment securities and trading assets – When quoted market prices are available in an active market, the securities are classified as Level 1 in the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities for the Company include certain treasury securities and equity securities. If quoted market prices are not available, but fair values can be estimated by observing quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, the securities are classified as Level 2 on the valuation hierarchy. For the Company, Level 2 securities include mortgage backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, government sponsored entity securities, and corporate bonds. In cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Impaired loans – Impaired loans are loans that are measured for impairment using the practical methods permitted by the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Fair values for impaired loans in the above table are collateral dependent and are estimated based on underlying collateral values, which are then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral.
Other real estate owned – Other real estate owned, consisting of properties obtained through foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, is reported at the lower of cost or fair value, determined on the basis of current appraisals, comparable sales, and other estimates of value obtained principally from independent sources, adjusted for estimated selling costs.
Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments requires disclosure of fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheets, when it is practical to estimate the fair value. The Codification defines a financial instrument as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity or contractual obligations which require the exchange of cash or other financial instruments. Certain items are specifically excluded from the disclosure requirements, including the Company’s common stock, premises and equipment and other assets and liabilities.
Fair value approximates carrying value for the following financial instruments due to the short-term nature of the instrument: cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and federal funds sold and purchased.
Securities are valued using quoted fair market prices. Other investments are valued at par value.
Fair value for variable rate loans that reprice frequently, loans held for sale, for loans that mature in less than three months and impaired loans is based on the carrying value. Fair value for fixed rate mortgage loans, personal loans, and all other loans (primarily commercial) maturing after three months is based on the discounted present value of the estimated future cash flows. Discount rates used in these computations approximate the rates currently offered for similar loans of comparable terms and credit quality.
Fair value for demand deposit accounts and interest-bearing accounts with no fixed maturity date is equal to the carrying value. Certificate of deposit accounts and securities sold under repurchase agreements maturing within one year are valued at their carrying value. The fair value of certificate of deposit accounts and securities sold under repurchase agreements maturing after one year are estimated by discounting cash flows from expected maturities using current interest rates on similar instruments.
16
Fair value for long-term FHLB advances is based on discounted cash flows using the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate. Discount rates used in these computations approximate rates currently offered for similar borrowings of comparable terms and credit quality.
Fair value of off-balance sheet instruments is based on fees currently charged to enter into similar arrangements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreement and the counterparties’ credit standing. These are generally short-term at variable rates; both the carrying amount and fair value are immaterial.
The Company has used management’s best estimate of fair value based on the above assumptions. Thus, the fair values presented may not be the amounts which could be realized in an immediate sale or settlement of the instrument. In addition, any income taxes or other expenses which would be incurred in an actual sale or settlement are not taken into consideration in the fair value presented.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In July 2010, the Receivables topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) was amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-20 to require expanded disclosures related to a company’s allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The amendments require the allowance disclosures to be provided on a disaggregated basis. The Company is required to include these disclosures in its interim and annual financial statements. See Loan Note above.
Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) required by ASU 2010-20 were deferred by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in ASU 2011-01 issued in January 2011. In April 2011 the FASB issued ASU 2011-02 to assist creditors with their determination of when a restructuring is a TDR. The determination is based on both whether the restructuring constitutes a concession and whether the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties.
17
Disclosures related to TDRs under ASU 2010-20 will be effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2011.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with accounting guidance regarding subsequent events, Management performed an evaluation to determine whether there have been any subsequent events since the balance sheet date that would be required to be disclosed in these financial statements, and concluded that there were none.
MANAGEMENT’S OPINION

Critical Accounting Policies
Peoples Bancorporation, Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements. The significant accounting policies of the Company are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
20
Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities; management considers such accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgments and assumptions used by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates and such differences could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the Company.
Of these significant accounting policies, the Company considers its policies regarding the allowance for loan losses (the “Allowance”) to be its most critical accounting policy due to the significant degree of management judgment involved in determining the amount of the Allowance. The Company has developed policies and procedures for assessing the adequacy of the Allowance, recognizing that this process requires a number of assumptions and estimates with respect to its loan portfolio. Many of the Company’s estimates also rely heavily on real estate appraisals by third parties which are themselves estimates. The Company’s assessments may be impacted in future periods by changes in economic conditions, the impact of regulatory examinations, and the discovery of information with respect to borrowers, which is not known to management at the time of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements. Refer to the discussion under the “Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses, Loan Loss Experience” section in Item 7--“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the “Balance Sheet Review--Allowance for Loan Losses” and “Earnings Performance--Provision for Loan Losses” sections of this report on Form 10-Q for a detailed description of the Company’s estimation process and methodology related to the Allowance.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
EARNINGS PERFORMANCE
Overview
The Company’s consolidated operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 resulted in net income of $430,000 compared to a net loss of $1,100,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. After deducting for dividends on preferred stock and net accretion of preferred stock, the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 resulted in net income available to common shareholders of $224,000 or $0.03 per diluted share compared to a net loss of $1,305,000 or $0.19 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of $1,529,000 or $0.22 per diluted share. The return on average common equity, which is annualized net income (or loss) available to common shareholders as a percentage of average total common equity, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was 2.27%, compared to (12.72)% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Return on average assets, which is annualized net income (or loss) divided by average assets, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was 0.32%, compared to (3.16)% for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Interest Income, Interest Expense and Net Interest Income
The largest component of the Company’s revenue is interest income. Net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on assets and the interest paid for the liabilities used to fund those assets, measures the gross profit from lending and investing activities and is the primary contributor to the Company’s earnings. Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased $12,000, or 0.3%, to $4,726,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to $4,738,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. The Company’s net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was 3.87%, compared to 3.65% for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.
The Company’s total interest income for the first quarter of 2011 was $6,240,000 compared to $6,728,000 for the first quarter of 2010, a decrease of $488,000, or 7.3%. Interest and fees on loans, the largest component of total interest income, decreased by $627,000 in the first quarter of 2011 to $4,862,000 from $5,489,000 for the first quarter of 2010, a decrease of 11.4%. The decrease in interest and fees on loans for the three-month period was due to lower market interest rates and lower average loan balances. Interest on taxable securities, the second largest component of total interest income, increased by $139,000 or 16.1% to $1,003,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $864,000 for the first quarter of 2010. This increase in interest on taxable securities for the three-month period was due to higher market interest rates and higher average balances. Interest on tax-exempt securities decreased by $1,000 or 0.3% to $366,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $367,000 for the first quarter of 2010. Interest on federal funds sold was $9,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $8,000 for the first quarter of 2010.
The Company’s total interest expense for the first quarter of 2011 was $1,514,000 compared to $1,990,000 for the first quarter of 2010, a decrease of $476,000, or 23.9%. Interest expense on deposits, the largest component of total interest expense, decreased by $477,000 in the first quarter of 2011 to $1,493,000 compared to $1,970,000 for the first quarter of 2010, a decrease of 24.2%. The decrease in interest expense on deposits for the three-month period is attributable to lower interest rates, and partially offset by higher average balances. Interest on securities sold under repurchase agreements, the second largest component of total interest expense, increased $1,000 or 5.0% to $21,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $20,000 for the first quarter of 2010.
22
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses charged to operations during the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $1,040,000 compared to $3,425,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, a decrease of $2,385,000 or 69.6%. The changes in the Company’s provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2011 are based on management’s evaluation of the Company’s overall credit quality and its estimate of loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio. See “BALANCE SHEET REVIEW – Allowance for Loan Losses.”
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income increased $119,000 or 12.7% to $1,053,000 for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $934,000 for the first quarter of 2010. Service fees on deposits, the largest component of non-interest income decreased $30,000 or 8.3% to $333,000 for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $363,000 for the first quarter of 2010, possibly as a result of customers managing their deposit accounts more carefully.
Mortgage banking fees increased from $85,000 in the first quarter of 2010 to $100,000 in the first quarter of 2011, an increase of $15,000 or 17.6%. The increase in mortgage banking income is due to increased levels of residential mortgage loan originations at the Banks. Brokerage service income increased from $53,000 in the first quarter of 2010 to $56,000 in the first quarter of 2011, an increase of $3,000 or 5.7% due to higher commissions from both the volume and mix of products. Bank owned life insurance income increased $2,000 or 1.5% in the first quarter of 2011 to $138,000 compared to $136,000 for the first quarter of 2010.
Other non-interest income increased $129,000 or 50.2% from $257,000 during the first quarter of 2010 to $386,000 for the first quarter of 2011, largely attributable to a $104,000 increase in the gain on trading assets of $128,000 during the first quarter of 2011, compared to $24,000 for the same period of 2010. There was also a $32,000 increase in interchange income on check cards to $199,000 for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $167,000 for the first quarter of 2010.
There were no gains realized on the sale of securities available for sale during the first quarter of 2011 or 2010.
Non-interest Expense
Total non-interest expense increased $172,000 or 4.2% to $4,304,000 for the first quarter of 2011 from $4,132,000 for the first quarter of 2010. Salaries and benefits, the largest component of non-interest expense, decreased $16,000 or 0.8%, to $2,045,000 for the first quarter of 2011 from $2,061,000 for the first quarter of 2010.
Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses decreased $48,000 or 9.4% to $463,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $511,000 in the first quarter of 2010, due in part to the closing of The Peoples National Bank’s Mills Avenue branch in Greenville, South Carolina during the fourth quarter of 2010. Communication expense decreased $10,000 or 15.9% from $63,000 in the first quarter of 2010 to $53,000 during the first quarter of 2011. Printing and supplies decreased $9,000 or 24.3% from $37,000 for the first quarter of 2010 to $28,000 for the first quarter of 2011. These decreases were the result of continued efforts by management to limit and reduce expenses in response to weakened economic conditions.
23
Net cost of operation of other real estate owned increased $222,000 or 66.5% to $556,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $334,000 in the first quarter of 2010. There was a net gain of $119,000 in the first quarter of 2011 on the sale of other real estate owned compared to a loss of $5,000 for the same period in 2010, an increase of $124,000. Rental income on other real estate owned during the first three months of 2011 amounted to $29,000 compared to $18,000 during the same period of 2010, an increase of $11,000. Expenses included in the net cost of operation of other real estate owned include write-downs of other real estate owned, taxes paid, legal fees, utilities, maintenance, etc. These expenses increased $357,000 or 102.9% to $704,000 in the first three months of 2011 compared to $347,000 for the first three months of 2010. Included in the $704,000 expense incurred in the first three months of 2011 is $387,000 in write-downs of other real estate to current market values, compared to $55,000 in the first three months of 2010. Bank paid loan costs decreased $5,000 or 11.1% to $40,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $45,000 in the first quarter 2010.
Marketing and advertising expense increased $8,000 or 17.8% to $53,000 during the first quarter of 2011 from $45,000 for the first quarter of 2010. This increase is attributable to a higher level of marketing activity at the Banks, although marketing activity was still somewhat restricted by the weak economy. Interchange and ATM expense increased $9,000 or 15.0% to $69,000 for the first three months of 2011, compared to $60,000 for the same period of 2010. Legal and professional expenses decreased $3,000 or 3.0% to $96,000 for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $99,000 for the first quarter of 2010.
Regulatory assessments increased $57,000 or 17.7% from $322,000 for the first quarter of 2010 to $379,000 for the first quarter of 2011. Regulatory assessments include fees paid to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) by the Company’s three Banks.
All other operating expenses were $344,000 in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $373,000 for the first quarter of 2010, a decrease of $29,000 or 7.8%.
Income Taxes
Income taxes amounted to $5,000 for the first three months of 2011 compared to a tax benefit for the first three months of 2010 of $785,000. The provision for income taxes is an estimate, and management considers several factors in making this estimate, including current pre-tax income levels, the amount of tax-exempt income, and a comparison of prior period estimates to income taxes ultimately determined.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
Loans
Outstanding loans represent the largest component of earning assets at 66.7% of total earning assets. As of March 31, 2011 the Company held total gross loans outstanding of $331,243,000, a decrease of $9,470,000 or 2.8% from $340,713,000 in total gross loans outstanding at December 31, 2010, and a decrease of $37,879,000 or 10.3% from $369,122,000 in total gross loans outstanding at March 31, 2010. The decrease in outstanding loans comes primarily as the result of lower loan demand from creditworthy borrowers at the Company’s three bank subsidiaries, with additional decreases resulting from a number of loans that were charged-off or converted into other real estate owned through foreclosures or deeds in lieu of foreclosure.

The interest rates charged on loans vary with the degree of risk, maturity, and amount of the loan. Competitive pressures, money market rates, availability of funds, and government regulation also influence interest rates. The average yield on the Company’s loans for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was 5.79%, compared to 5.91% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The Federal Reserve continues to keep the federal funds target rate near zero for an “extended period” of time. A large portion of the Company’s adjustable-rate loans, which constitute approximately 30.5% of the loan portfolio, reprice following an interest-rate change by the Federal Reserve.
The Company’s loan portfolio consists principally of residential mortgage loans, commercial loans, and consumer loans. The vast majority of these loans is made to borrowers located in South Carolina and is concentrated in the Company’s market areas.
The Company’s real estate loans are primarily construction loans and other loans secured by real estate, both commercial and residential, located within the Company’s trade areas. The Company does not actively pursue long-term, fixed-rate mortgage loans for retention in its loan portfolio. However, the Banks do employ mortgage loan originators who originate such loans that are pre-sold at origination to third parties.
The Company’s commercial lending activity is directed principally towards businesses whose demand for funds falls within each Bank’s legal lending limits and which are potential deposit customers of the Banks. This category of loans includes loans made to individuals, partnerships, and corporate borrowers, which are obtained for a variety of business purposes. Particular emphasis is placed on loans to small and medium-sized businesses. The Company’s commercial loans are spread throughout a variety of industries, with no industry or group of related industries accounting for a significant portion of the commercial loan portfolio. Commercial loans are made on either a secured or an unsecured basis. When taken, security usually consists of liens on inventories, receivables, equipment, furniture and fixtures. Unsecured commercial loans are generally short-term with emphasis on repayment strengths and low debt-to-worth ratios.
25
The Company’s direct consumer loans consist primarily of secured installment loans to individuals for personal, family, and household purposes, including automobile loans to individuals and pre-approved lines of credit.
Management believes that the loan portfolio is adequately diversified. The Company has no foreign loans or loans for highly leveraged transactions. The Company has few if any agricultural loans.
PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES, LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE
The purpose of the Company’s allowance for loan losses is to absorb loan losses that occur in the loan portfolios of its bank subsidiaries. The Company complies with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification when determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance quarterly and considers a variety of factors in establishing a level of the allowance for loan losses and the related provision, which is charged to expense. Factors considered in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses include: historical loan losses experienced by the Company, current economic conditions affecting a borrower’s ability to repay, the volume of outstanding loans, the trends in delinquent, non-accruing and potential problem loans, and the quality of collateral securing non-performing and problem loans. By considering the above factors, management attempts to determine the amount of reserves necessary to provide for inherent losses in the loan portfolios of its subsidiaries. However, the amount of reserves may change in response to changes in the financial condition of larger borrowers, changes in the Company’s local economies, industry trends, and regulatory requirements.
The allowance for loan losses for each portfolio segment is set at an amount that reflects management’s best judgment of the extent to which historical loss levels are more or less accurate indicators of current losses in the loan portfolios of its bank subsidiaries. While it is the Company’s policy to charge off in the current period loans in which a loss is considered probable, there are inherent losses that cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to particular loans or classes of loans. Because the state of the economy, industry trends, and conditions affecting individual borrowers may affect the amount of such losses, management’s estimate of the appropriate amount of the allowance is necessarily approximate and imprecise. The Company and its bank subsidiaries are also subject to regulatory examinations and determinations as to adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, which may take into account such factors as the methodology used to calculate the allowance for loan losses and the size of the allowance for loan losses in comparison to a group of peer companies identified by the regulatory agencies.
In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, management relies predominantly on its ongoing review of the loan portfolio, including historical charge-offs, which is undertaken both to ascertain whether there are probable losses that must be charged off and to assess the risk characteristics of the portfolio in the aggregate. The Company utilizes its credit administration department, as well as the services of an outside consultant from time to time, to perform quality reviews of its loan portfolio. The reviews consider the judgments and estimates of management and also those of bank regulatory agencies that review the loan portfolio as part of their regular examination process. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as part of its routine examination process of national banks, including the Company’s Banks, may require additions to the allowance for loan losses based upon the regulator’s credit evaluations differing from those of management. The Company’s management believes it has in place the controls and personnel needed to adequately monitor its loan portfolios and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.
26
At March 31, 2011, the allowance for loan losses was $8,082,000 or 2.44% of gross outstanding loans, compared to $7,919,000 or 2.32% of gross outstanding loans at December 31, 2010 and $8,665,000 or 2.35% of gross outstanding loans at March 31, 2010. During the first three months of 2011, the Company experienced net charge-offs of $877,000 or 0.26% of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $2,191,000, or 0.59% of average loans during the first three months of 2010. The Company’s provision for loan losses was $1,040,000 for the first three months of 2011 compared to $3,425,000 in the first three months of 2010.
Management continues to closely monitor the levels of non-performing and potential problem loans and will address the weaknesses in these credits to enhance the amount of ultimate collection or recovery on these assets. When increases in the overall level of non-performing and potential problem loans accelerates from the historical trend, management may adjust the methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses, which results in increases the provision and the allowance for loan losses. This typically decreases net income.
The following table sets forth ratios of net charge-offs and the allowance for loan losses to the items stated:

The allowance for loan losses is increased by direct charges to operating expense through the provision for loan losses. Losses on loans are charged against the allowance in the period in which management determines it is more likely than not that the full amounts of such loans have become uncollectible. Recoveries of previously charged-off loans are credited back to the allowance.
Management considers the allowance for loan losses adequate to cover inherent losses on the loans outstanding at March 31, 2011. In the opinion of management, there are no material risks or significant loan concentrations, other than loans secured by real estate, in the present portfolio. The allowance for loan losses uses the Company’s procedures and methods which include the following risk factors, though not intended to be an all inclusive list:
27
-
|
The impact of changes in the international, national, regional and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectibility of the loan portfolio, including those within our geographic market.
|
-
|
The cumulative impact of the extended duration of this economic deterioration on our borrowers, in particular those with real estate related loans.
|
-
|
Changes in the nature and volume in our loan portfolio.
|
-
|
The impact of changes in the experience, ability, and depth of the lending management and other relevant staff.
|
-
|
Changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans.
|
-
|
The impact of changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of non-accrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans.
|
-
|
Changes in the quality of the Company’s loan review system.
|
No assurance can be given that the Company will not sustain loan losses in any particular period which are sizable in relation to the amount reserved or that subsequent evaluation of the loan portfolio, in light of conditions and factors then prevailing, will not require significant changes in the allowance for loan losses or future charges to earnings. The allowance for loan losses is also subject to review and approval by various regulatory agencies through their periodic examinations of the Company’s subsidiaries. Such examinations could result in required changes to the allowance for loan losses.
The local economy continues to struggle. The housing market, including construction and development projects, has demonstrated stress given reduced cash flows of individual borrowers, limited bank financing and credit availability, and slow property sales. The Company continues to diligently assess its risk, particularly in the real estate market. The Company’s special assets department continues to be proactive in foreclosure actions and sales. Management believes these actions should start to decrease the Company’s non-performing assets levels.
Securities
The primary objective of the Company’s securities portfolio is to provide for the liquidity needs of the Company and to contribute to profitability by providing a stable flow of dependable earnings. The Company invests primarily in obligations of the United States or obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by the United States, other taxable securities, and certain obligations of states and municipalities. The Company had $204,000 in trading assets at March 31, 2011, compared to $76,000 at December 31, 2010 and $152,000 in trading assets at March 31, 2010. The Company uses its investment portfolio to provide liquidity for unexpected deposit liquidation or loan generation, to meet the Company’s interest-rate sensitivity goals, to secure public deposits, and to generate income. At March 31, 2011 securities totaled $150,134,000, which represented 30.2% of total earning assets. Total securities increased $7,840,000 or 5.5% from $142,294,000 invested as of December 31, 2010 and increased $34,598,000 or 30.0% from $115,536,000 invested as of March 31, 2010. The size of the Company’s investment portfolio is managed and fluctuates from time to time based on the amount of public deposits held, loan demand, liquidity needs, investment strategy, and other pertinent factors.
At March 31, 2011 the Company’s total investments classified as available for sale had an amortized cost of $138,557,000 and a market value of $138,884,000 for a net unrealized gain of $327,000. This compares to an amortized cost of $130,434,000 and a market value of $130,650,000 for an unrealized gain of $216,000 on the Company’s investments classified as available for sale at December 31, 2010. At March 31, 2010 the Company’s total investments classified as available for sale had an amortized cost of $99,920,000 and a market value of $103,119,000 for an unrealized gain of $3,199,000. Management believes that maintaining most of its securities in the available-for-sale category provides greater flexibility in the management of the overall investment portfolio. In cases where the market value is less than the amortized cost, the Company has the ability and intent to hold securities that are in an unrealized loss position until a market price recovery or maturity, and therefore these securities are not considered impaired on an other-than-temporary basis.
28
Securities with carrying amounts of $30,453,000 at March 31, 2011 were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
Other Real Estate Owned
The Company’s other real estate owned was $13,313,000 at March 31, 2011, a decrease of $31,000 or 0.2% from $13,344,000 at December 31, 2010 and an increase of $717,000, or 5.7% from $12,596,000 at March 31, 2010. During the first three months of 2011, the Company acquired $2,420,000 in other real estate, sold $2,029,000 in properties and wrote-down $422,000 of other real estate owned. During 2010, the Company acquired $9,943,000 in other real estate, sold $7,017,000 in properties and wrote-down $522,000.

Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance
The Company’s cash surrender value of life insurance was $12,909,000 at March 31, 2011, an increase of $118,000, or 0.9%, from the $12,791,000 held at December 31, 2010 and an increase of $485,000, or 4.0%, from the $12,424,000 held at March 31, 2010. The increase in cash surrender value of life insurance is due to normal appreciation in the cash surrender value associated with the ownership of these assets. Earnings from the ownership of these policies are informally used to partially offset the cost of certain employee-related benefits.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents increased $10,145,000, or 58.8%, to $27,389,000 at March 31, 2011 from $17,244,000 at December 31, 2010, and decreased $235,000, or 0.9%, from $27,624,000 at March 31, 2010. From time to time there are swings in the level of cash and cash equivalents, which are due to normal fluctuations in the Banks’ needs and sources for immediate and short-term liquidity.
Deposits
The Banks’ primary source of funds for loans and investments is their deposits. Total deposits increased $5,137,000 or 1.1%, to $479,891,000 at March 31, 2011 from $474,754,000 at December 31, 2010 and decreased $82,000, or 0.02%, from $479,973,000 at March 31, 2010. Competition for deposit accounts is primarily based on the interest rates paid, location convenience and services offered.
29
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, interest-bearing deposits averaged $426,993,000 compared to $429,879,000 for the same period of 2010. From time to time the Banks solicit certificates of deposit from various sources through brokers. This is done to reduce the need for funding from other short-term sources such as federal funds purchased and short-term borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, as well as to manage the interest rate risk at the Banks. At March 31, 2011 brokered deposits totaled $40,993,000, compared to $43,194,000 and $46,797,000 in brokered deposits at December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively. At March 31, 2011, of the total brokered deposits $15,872,000 was acquired through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”), compared with $18,073,000 at December 31, 2010 and $24,489,000 at March 31, 2010. The Company considers brokered funds to be an attractive alternative funding source available to use while continuing its efforts to maintain and grow its local deposit base.
The average interest rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 1.40% during the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 1.83% for the same period of 2010 and 1.68% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010. In pricing deposits, the Company considers its liquidity needs, the direction and levels of interest rates, and local market conditions. At March 31, 2011 interest-bearing deposits comprised 89.1% of total deposits compared to 89.9% at December 31, 2010 and 89.6% at March 31, 2010.
The Company's core deposit base consists largely of consumer time deposits less than $100,000, savings accounts, NOW accounts, money market accounts, and checking accounts. Although such core deposits are becoming increasingly interest-sensitive for both the Company and the industry as a whole, these core deposits still continue to provide the Company with a large source of relatively stable funds. Core deposits as a percentage of total deposits averaged approximately 76% at March 31, 2011, 71% at December 31, 2010 and 75% at March 31, 2010. 2009. Time deposits of $100,000 or more represented 24.4% of total deposits at March 31, 2011, 25.4% at December 31, 2010 and 25.3% at March 31, 2010. The Company’s larger denomination time deposits are generally garnered from customers within the local market areas of its Banks, and therefore may have a greater degree of stability than is typically associated with this source of funds at other financial institutions. The permanent increase of the maximum FDIC insurance amount from $100,000 to $250,000 may also provide stability to time deposits over $100,000 but less than $250,000.
Borrowings
The Company’s borrowings are typically comprised of federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and short-term advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). At March 31, 2011 borrowings totaled $12,445,000, compared to $10,362,000 at December 31, 2010 and $15,051,000 at March 31, 2010, all of which were comprised of securities sold under repurchase agreements. Federal funds purchased and short-term FHLB advances are used primarily for the immediate cash needs of the Company.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity management involves meeting the cash flow requirements of the Company. The Company’s liquidity position is primarily dependent upon its need to respond to short-term demand for funds caused by increased loan demand and withdrawals from deposit accounts. The Company’s primary liquidity sources include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, securities available for sale and a line of credit established with a correspondent bank. In addition, the Company (through the Banks) has the ability to borrow funds on a short-term basis from the Federal Reserve System and to purchase federal funds from other financial institutions. The Banks are also members of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and have the ability to borrow both short-term and long-term funds on a secured basis. At March 31, 2011, The Peoples National Bank had total borrowing capacity from the FHLB equal to $64,150,000, all of which was unused. Bank of Anderson, N.A. had total borrowing capacity from the FHLB equal to $28,920,000, all of which was unused at March 31, 2011. Seneca National Bank had established secured lines of credit with the FHLB at March 31, 2011 of $11,340,000, all of which was unused. At March 31, 2011, the Banks also had unused federal funds lines of credit with various correspondent banks totaling $22,000,000.

Peoples Bancorporation, Inc., the parent holding company, has limited liquidity needs outside those of its subsidiaries, and requires funds to pay limited operating expenses and dividends. The parent company’s liquidity needs are fulfilled through management fees assessed to each subsidiary bank and from dividends passed up to the parent company from the Banks.
During the first three months of 2011, the Company made capital expenditures of approximately $35,000 related to minor equipment upgrades. The Company also makes other capital expenditures in the normal course of business.
Company management believes its liquidity sources are adequate to meet its operating needs and is not aware of any trends that may result in the Company’s liquidity materially increasing or decreasing.
31
OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company, through the operations of the Banks, makes contractual commitments to extend credit in the ordinary course of its business activities. These commitments are legally binding agreements to lend money to customers of the Banks at predetermined interest rates for a specified period of time. At March 31, 2011, the Banks had issued commitments to extend credit of $68,753,000 through various types of arrangements. The commitments generally expire within one year. Past experience indicates that many of these commitments to extend credit will expire not fully used. As described under “Liquidity,” the Company believes that it has adequate sources of liquidity to fund commitments that are drawn upon by the borrowers.
In addition to commitments to extend credit, the Banks also issue standby letters of credit, which are assurances to a third party that it will not suffer a loss if the Bank’s customer fails to meet its contractual obligation to the third party. Standby letters of credit totaled $1,960,000 at March 31, 2011. Past experience indicates that many of these standby letters of credit will expire unused. However, through its various sources of liquidity, the Company believes that it will have the necessary resources to meet these obligations should the need arise. Various types of collateral secure most of the standby letters of credit. The Company believes that the risk of loss associated with standby letters of credit is comparable to the risk of loss associated with its loan portfolio.
Neither the Company nor the Banks are involved in any other off-balance sheet contractual relationships or transactions that could result in liquidity needs or other commitments or significantly impact earnings.

(1) The OCC has established individual minimum capital ratios for the three Banks pursuant to 12 C.F.R. Section 3.10. These minimum requirements exceed the normal regulatory requirements to be well capitalized. Currently each of the Banks is required to maintain 12% total risk-based capital, 10% tier 1 risk-based capital, and 8% leverage ratio. Each of the Banks exceeded these required capital levels at March 31, 2011.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to a change in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices. The Company’s primary type of market risk is interest-rate risk.
The primary objective of Asset/Liability Management at the Company is to manage interest-rate risk and achieve reasonable stability in net interest income throughout interest-rate cycles in order to maintain adequate liquidity. The Company seeks to achieve this objective by maintaining the proper balance of rate-sensitive earning assets and rate-sensitive liabilities. The relationship of rate-sensitive earning assets to rate-sensitive liabilities is the principal factor in projecting the effect that fluctuating interest rates will have on future net interest income. Rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities are those that can be repriced to current market rates within a relatively short time period. Management monitors the rate sensitivity of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities over the entire life of these instruments, but places particular emphasis on the first year.
Each of the Banks has established an Asset/Liability Management Committee. These committees use a variety of tools to analyze interest-rate sensitivity, including a static gap presentation and a simulation model. A static gap presentation reflects the difference between total interest-sensitive assets and liabilities within certain time periods. While the static gap is a widely used measure of interest-rate sensitivity, it is not, in management’s opinion, the best indicator of a company’s true sensitivity position. Accordingly, the Banks also use an earnings simulation model that estimates the variations in interest income under different interest-rate environments to measure and manage the Bank’s short-term interest-rate risk. According to the model, as of March 31, 2011 the Company was positioned so that net interest income would increase $464,000 over the next twelve months if market interest rates were to suddenly rise by 100 basis points at the beginning of the same period. Conversely, net interest income would decline by $268,000 over the next twelve months if interest rates were to suddenly decline by 100 basis points at the beginning of the same period. Computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest-rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates and loan prepayment, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate all actions that the Company and its customers could undertake in response to changes in interest rates.
Additionally, each of the Banks measures anticipated changes in its theoretical economic value of equity in order to ascertain its long-term interest-rate risk. This is done by calculating the difference between the theoretical market value of the Bank’s assets and liabilities and subjecting the balance sheet to different interest-rate environments to measure and manage long-term interest rate risk.
It is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Committee of each bank to establish parameters for various interest risk measures, to set strategies to control interest-rate risk within those parameters, to maintain adequate and stable net interest income, and to direct the implementation of tactics to facilitate achieving these objectives.
