Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Organization

On September 4, 2009, Hometown Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”) acquired all outstanding stock of HomeTown Bank (the “Bank”) in an exchange for shares of the Registrant on a one-for-one basis to become a single-bank holding company with the Bank becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Bank was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of Virginia on November 9, 2004 and commenced operations on November 14, 2005. The Bank currently serves Roanoke City, Virginia, the County of Roanoke, Virginia, the City of Salem, Virginia, Christiansburg, Virginia, and surrounding areas. As a state chartered bank which is a member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank is subject to regulation by the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Federal Reserve Board.

 

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 included herein, have been prepared by HomeTown Bankshares Corporation, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Management believes that all interim adjustments for the period ended June 30, 2014 are of a normal recurring nature. In the opinion of management, the information furnished in the interim consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such interim periods. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto as of December 31, 2013, included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Interim financial performance is not necessarily indicative of performance for the full year.

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company follow generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the financial services industry.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary HomeTown Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions associated with the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary have been eliminated.

 

Our accounting policies and basic principles have not changed since the summary disclosure of these in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Please refer to Form 10-K for these policies.

 

Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date of this filing.

U. S. Government and federal agency securities: The unrealized losses on 20 of the Company’s investments in obligations of the U. S. government were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased.  The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2014.

 

Mortgage-backed securities: The unrealized losses on 9 of the Company’s investments in government-sponsored entity mortgage-backed securities were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2014.

 

Municipal securities: The unrealized losses on 21 of the Company’s investments in obligations of municipal securities were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased. All municipal securities are investment grade. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates, credit spreads, ratings and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2014.

 

The following tables demonstrate the unrealized loss position of available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. This information summarizes the amount of time individual securities have been in a continuous, unrealized loss position.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

 

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDR’s”) were comprised of three loans totaling $6.2 million at June 30, 2014.  Two of the three loans were performing in accordance with their restructured terms and were not on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2014.  The remaining $26 thousand loan was on nonaccrual status at the end of the second quarter of 2014.  This compares with $6.3 million in total restructured loans at December 31, 2013.  

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, no loans were modified as TDR’s. One TDR was classified as a substandard non-accruing loan at June 30, 2014 and 2013. The outstanding balance of the loan was $26 thousand and $42 thousand at June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

 

Management considers troubled debt restructurings and subsequent defaults in restructured loans in the determination of the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. The three TDR’s have not had any defaults during the twelve month period ended June 30, 2014. When identified as a TDR, a loan is evaluated for potential loss based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent. Loans identified as TDRs frequently are on non-accrual status at the time of the restructuring and, in some cases, partial charge-offs may have already been taken against the loan and a specific allowance may have already been established for the loan. As a result of any modification as a TDR, if a specific reserve is associated with the loan it may be increased. Additionally, loans modified in a TDR are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future defaults. If loans modified in a TDR subsequently default, the Company evaluates the loan for possible further impairment. As a result, any specific allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the total allowance balance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan. Management exercises significant judgment in developing estimates for potential losses associated with TDRs.

Note 6. Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $26 thousand and $17 thousand for the years to date June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

The Company has a 2005 Stock Option Plan (the Plan) pursuant to which the Board of Directors may grant stock options to directors, officers and employees. The Plan authorizes grants of options to purchase up to 550,000 shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued common stock. Under the fair value recognition provisions of relevant accounting guidance, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options. The fair value of the stock based payment awards is affected by the price of our stock and a number of financial assumptions and variables. These variables include the risk free interest rate, expected dividend rate, expected stock price volatility and the expected life of the options.  No options were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013. All previously issued options were fully vested by the end of 2012, thus no compensation expense related to stock options was recorded in 2014 or 2013.

(1) The aggregate intrinsic value of a stock option in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the amount by which the current market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on June 30, 2014.

 

The Board of Directors adopted a Restricted Stock Plan (the Plan) in September 2009 whereby 120,000 shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued common stock was set aside to be granted by the Company’s Board of Directors at its discretion. The principal purpose of the Plan was to make shares available for issue to the executive officers of the Company and the Bank in payment of incentives earned under the Incentive Compensation Plan. 

 

The restrictions attached to stock issued under the Plan provide for vesting over a five-year period. During the first half of 2014, the Company issued 17,268 shares of stock under the Plan, and in the same period of 2013, the Company issued 7,781 shares of stock under the Plan. A summary of the activity for restricted stock awards for the periods indicated is presented below:

Note 7. Fair Value Measurement

 

The Company uses a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on these two types of inputs are as follows:

 

Level 1-Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 

Level 2-Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.

 

Level 3-Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.

 

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements:

 

Securities available for sale: Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or writedowns of individual assets.

 

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements:

 

Impaired Loans: The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time a loan is considered impaired and a specific reserve is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures the extent of any loss. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value, and discounted cash flow. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investment in such loans. Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. If carried at market price based on current appraised value using observable market data, it is recorded as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraisal value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 3.

 

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO): The carrying amount of real estate owned by the Company resulting from foreclosures is estimated at the lesser of cost or the fair value of the real estate based on an observable market price or a current appraised value less selling costs. If carried at market price based on current appraised value using observable market data, it is recorded as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or is not current, or management determines the fair value of the real estate is further impaired below the appraised value or there is no observable market price, the Company records the real estate as nonrecurring Level 3.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

 

Cash and due from banks: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash on hand and amounts due from correspondent banks approximate their fair values. The fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such time deposits.

 

Federal funds sold: Federal funds sold consist of overnight loans to other financial institutions and mature within one to three days. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, management believes the carrying value of federal funds sold approximates estimated market value.

 

 
16

 

 

Available-for-sale securities: Fair values for securities, excluding restricted equity securities, are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

 

Restricted equity securities: For these restricted equity securities, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the redemption provisions of the related securities.

 

Loans held for sale: The carrying value of these loans approximates the fair value. These loans close in the name of the bank’s joint venture subsidiary HomeTown Residential Mortgage, LLC, but are generally sold within a two-week period.

 

Loans receivable: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying amounts. The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

 

Deposit liabilities: The fair values disclosed for demand and savings deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such time deposits.

  

Short term borrowings: Short term borrowings consist of overnight borrowings and mature within one to three days. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, management believes the carrying value of securities sold under agreements to repurchase approximates estimated market value.

 

FHLB borrowings: The fair values for long term borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on long term borrowings to the contractual maturities on such long term borrowings.

 

Accrued interest: The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates fair value.

 

Off-balance sheet financial instruments: The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the fair value of loan commitments and standby letters of credit were deemed to be immaterial.

 

The carrying amounts and approximate fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

ITEM 2.          MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

Forward-looking Statements

 

HomeTown Bankshares makes forward-looking statements in this report. These forward-looking statements may include: statements of goals, intentions, earnings expectations, and other expectations; estimates of risks and of future costs and benefits; assessments of probable loan and lease losses; assessments of market risk; and statements of the ability to achieve financial and other goals. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project” and other similar words and expressions. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company does not assume any duty and does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those that the Company anticipated in its forward-looking statements; and future results could differ materially from historical performance.

The following is a discussion of factors that significantly affected the financial condition and results of operations of HomeTown Bankshares Corporation. This discussion should be read in connection with the financial statements presented herein.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The Company’s significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements in the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company’s financial position and results of operations are affected by management’s application of accounting policies, including estimates, assumptions and judgments made to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities and amounts reported for revenues and expenses.

 

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and are capable of estimation and (ii) that losses on impaired loans be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level, which, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

 

 
20

 

 

The amount of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of the collectability of the loan portfolio, including the nature of the portfolio, credit concentrations, trends in historical loss experience, specific impaired loans, economic conditions, and other risks inherent in the portfolio. Management reviews the past due reports and risk-rated loans and discusses individually the loans on these reports with the responsible loan officers. Management uses these tools and provides a detailed quarterly analysis of the allowance based on our historical loan loss experience, risk-rated loans, past dues, concentrations of credit, unsecured loans, loan exceptions, and economic trends. These are generally grouped by homogeneous loan pools. Allowances for impaired loans are generally determined based on collateral values less cost to sell, or the present value of estimated cash flows. This allowance, then, is designated as a specific reserve. Although management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, because of uncertainties associated with local economic conditions, collateral values, and future cash flows on impaired loans, it is reasonably possible that a material change could occur in the allowance for loan losses in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated. The allowance is increased by a provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense, and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Changes in the allowance relating to impaired loans are charged or credited to the provision for loan losses. Past due status is determined based on contractual terms.

 

Discussion of Operations

 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2014

 

Net income for the first half of 2014 totaled $1.6 million, and was $469 thousand or 40.2% higher than the $1.2 million earned during the same period of 2013, due largely to more net interest income in the current year. Higher noninterest income and lower noninterest expense also contributed to higher earnings in 2014 over 2013.

 

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $7.2 million compared to $6.7 million for 2013. The $452 thousand or 6.7% improvement was fueled by the expansion of earning assets. The level of average earning assets for the first half or 2014 was $26.8 million above the prior year. Average loans expanded by $30.7 million during this time and were funded primarily by the growth of $24.6 million in average deposits. Non-interest bearing deposit growth comprised $9.0 million of the total $24.6 million deposit growth.

 

The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $202 thousand and $125 thousand, respectively. Higher recoveries in 2013 replenished the allowance for loan losses and reduced the amount of provision last year.

 

Noninterest income totaled $839 thousand for the first half of 2014, up $69 thousand or 9.0% from the first half of 2013. Growth in the number of consumer deposit accounts resulted in increased service charge income on deposit accounts, and ATM and interchange income. In total these items were up $100 thousand over last year. The Company purchased life insurance policies in the fourth quarter of 2013 on certain key executives. These policies are recorded at the cash surrender value of the life insurance contracts. Increases in the cash surrender value of $51 thousand, during the six months ended June 30, 2014, were included in other income. HomeTown Investments began generating revenue in the second quarter of 2014, and also contributed $26 thousand to other income. Lower mortgage income offset much of these favorable variances, due to the reduction in mortgage refinancing, a nationwide trend that began in the second half of 2013. Even though housing starts and credit availability picked up slightly in May and June, the Mortgage Bankers Association still forecast a 42% decline in overall mortgage originations in 2014.

 

Noninterest expense year to date through June 30, 2014 was $5.5 million, $185 thousand or 3.3% less than the $5.6 million recorded in the same period last year. The favorable variance was mainly due to writedowns totaling $321 thousand of two large other real estate owned properties as the result of new appraisals last year. Professional fees were $110 thousand less than the prior year. The first half of 2013 included $50 thousand associated with legal fees incurred that resulted in the recovery of $163 thousand of a loan charged off in a prior year and the full recovery of $88 thousand charged off in 2013. FDIC insurance expense was $159 thousand below the prior year due primarily to a decreased rate. Unfavorable variances in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing, bank franchise taxes, and other expenses largely offset the favorable variances. The increase in salaries reflects annual cost of living and merit pay increases. Occupancy and equipment expense was $89 thousand higher for the first half of 2014 compared to 2013. The increase was due to the addition of the Salem and Market Square ATMs in the second quarter of 2013, and the relocation of the New River Valley operations to a new, larger building at the end of last year. The Company built a new branch at the site of the Salem ATM and opened the branch for business on July 28, 2014. Several items contributed to other expense being $187 thousand higher for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to same period last year. Expenses related to the two new ATMs, combined with increased printing and supplies expense, and check losses, were all factors.

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2014

 

The Company recorded net income of $833 thousand for the second quarter of 2014, an increase of $191 thousand or 29.8% over the $642 thousand reported for the same quarter a year ago. Favorable variances in net interest income, noninterest income, and noninterest expense each contributed to the higher level of earnings over last year. Net income for the second quarter of 2014 was $30 thousand or 3.7% above the $803 thousand earned in the first quarter of 2014, as the result of increased net interest income and noninterest income.

 

Net interest income was $3.6 million for the second quarter of 2014, and approximated the previous quarter, and was $188 thousand or 5.5% higher than the same quarter a year ago. The favorable variance in the second quarter’s net interest income compared to the same quarter in the prior year was due largely to a higher volume of earning assets. Average earning assets for the second quarter of 2014 were $383 million, $28.8 million higher than the $354 million average for the second quarter of 2013. Increased activity in loan originations fueled the expansion. The increase in average loans was funded primarily by core deposit growth. Average deposits for the second quarter of 2014 were $348 million, an increase of $22.8 million over total average deposits of $325 million for the same quarter in 2013.

The tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.86%, 3.94%, and 3.93% for the three months ended, June 30, 2014, March 31, 2014, and June 30, 2013, respectively. The 8 basis point and 7 basis point decline in the net interest margin for the second quarter 2014 compared to the prior quarter and the same quarter a year ago, reflects the drop in the yield on loans, as new loans and renewals are at lower current market rates. The weighted average maturity of the fixed rate portion of the portfolio has remained relatively unchanged in 2014. Maintaining a relatively short term presents pricing opportunities in the future. The impact of lower yields on earning assets has been partially mitigated by lower costs of funds. The main factor contributing to lower fund costs was a favorable change in mix to a higher concentration of non-interest bearing or lower cost deposit products. Because of the low interest rate environment over the past few years, demand deposits at commercial banks have grown at an unprecedented rate; this trend could reverse itself if shorter term rates rise. Management does not expect any additional downward adjustments in 2014, and in fact rates on deposits products may rise in reaction to the changing market. Management expects the combination of lower loan yields and possibly higher deposit costs in the future to further compress the net interest margin in future quarters.

 

The provision for loan losses was $132 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to none for the same period in 2013. The increase in the provision was necessitated by the growth of the loan portfolio.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, noninterest income totaled $506 thousand, $53 thousand or 11.7% higher than the same period in the prior year.  Service charge income on deposit accounts, and ATM and interchange income, in total increased $60 thousand over last year. Increases in the cash surrender value of life insurance on certain key executives added $26 thousand to other income, during the three months ended June 30, 2014. HomeTown Investments began generating revenue in the second quarter of 2014, and also contributed $26 thousand to other income. Lower mortgage income offset much of these favorable variances, due to the reduction in mortgage refinancing, a nationwide trend that began in the second half of 2013.

 

Noninterest expense decreased $142 thousand or 4.8% to $2.8 million for the three months ended on June 30, 2014, when compared to the same period in 2013.  Other real estate owned net gains, losses and write-downs were $349 thousand less due to the second quarter 2013 writedowns of two large properties. Increases in other categories primarily reflect the Company’s growth.

 

Financial Condition

 

The Company’s management, under the direction of the Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) of the Board of Directors, reviews the mix of monetary assets and liabilities to ensure the Company maintains an adequate level of liquidity while maximizing interest rate spreads.

 

At June 30, 2014, the Company had total assets of $417 million, up $14.9 million or 3.7% over total assets of $402 million at December 31, 2013.   At the end of the first half of 2014, net loans had increased $20.1 million or 6.8% over year end 2013. Loan growth is expected to continue through the remainder of 2014, but at a slower rate than the first half of the year.

 

The Company’s liabilities at June 30, 2014 totaled $376 million compared to $363 million at December 31, 2013, an increase of $12.9 million or 3.6%.   Deposits have risen $8.7 million or 2.5% since year end 2013. Interest bearing deposits were $11.6 million or 4.0% higher at the end of June 2014 compared to year end 2013. The Company used additional brokered deposits of $8.5 million as one of the sources of funding for loan growth. Interest Only Lawyer accounts accounted for $3.6 million of the increase and by their nature are subject to high volatility. Noninterest bearing deposits declined $2.9 million or 6.3% during the same time frame due to fluctuations in commercial accounts. The Company expects the opening of the new branch in Salem to attract new deposit customers. The Company also used three additional Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings totaling $7 million as a source of funds for the expansion of the loan portfolio. The three borrowings were for staggered maturities from three months to two years and were at rates varying from .23 to .67%.

 

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had stockholders’ equity of $41.6 million and $39.5 million, respectively, an increase of $2.0 million or 5.1%. The change in stockholders’ equity in the first six months of 2014 was mainly the result of net income of $1.6 million, partially offset by the payment of $420 thousand of dividends on preferred stock. The $775 change in accumulated other comprehensive income and losses also contributed to the overall increase in stockholders’ equity.  

 

Management believes the Company has sufficient capital to fund its operations. At June 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements. Management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity on a short-term basis to meet any funding needs it may have, and expects that its long term liquidity needs can be achieved through deposit growth, however there can be no assurance that such growth will develop. The Company has multiple credit lines available as an alternative source of funding.

 Non-performing Assets

 

Non-performing assets consist of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans, and repossessed and foreclosed assets.

Year to date through June 30, 2014, there were $2.1 million of additions to nonperforming loans, and there were sales of $969 thousand of other real estate owned and additions of $220 thousand. Nonaccrual additions included one large loan for $1.9 million that was individually evaluated and the collateral was deemed sufficient and was included in impaired loans with no specific reserve for loan losses. This loan has been classified as Substandard for several years.  The borrower’s financial condition had deteriorated further and the bank is moving towards foreclosure.

 

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDR’s”) were comprised of three loans totaling $6.2 million at June 30, 2014.  Two of the three loans were included in impaired loans, but were performing in accordance with their restructured terms and were not on nonaccrual status.  The remaining $26 thousand loan was on nonaccrual status at the end of the second quarter of 2014.  This compares with $6.3 million in total restructured loans at December 31, 2013.  For the six months ended June 30, 2014, no loans were modified as a TDR. For the year 2013, no loans were modified in a TDR.

 

The major classifications of other real estate owned in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are included in Note 5, and the activity in other real estate owned for the first six months of 2014 and 2013 is also included in Note 5.

 

Gains on sales of other real estate owned totaled $5 thousand through the end of the second quarter of 2014, compared to gains on sales of other real estate of $26 thousand for the same period of 2013. There were no writedowns of other real estate owned in the first six months of 2014. The first half of 2013 included $377 thousand of writedowns.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions.

   

Specific loss reserves for loans individually evaluated for impairment totaled $150 thousand and $173 thousand at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  Impaired loans totaled $12.0 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.    Based on the general reserves established on loans collectively evaluated for impairment and the specific reserves for loans individually evaluated for impairment, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $202 thousand in the first six months of 2014 compared to $125 thousand in 2013. Unallocated reserves were $59 thousand at June 30, 2014 and $43 thousand at December 31, 2013. The percentage of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.14%, and 1.25% at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively. The percentage of the allowance for loan losses to total loans declined from December 31, 2013 to June 30, 2014 because of improvement in the historical net charge off ratio. Although the level of nonperforming loans increased by $1.5 million since December 31, 2013, this increase is due to a single loan that was evaluated for impairment and not deemed to require a specific reserve at June 30, 2014.

 

As of July 30, 2014, information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in June indicated that growth in economic activity rebounded in the second quarter. Labor market conditions improved, with the unemployment rate declining further. However, a range of labor market indicators suggested that there remains significant underutilization of labor resources. Household spending appears to be rising moderately and business fixed investment is advancing, while the recovery in the housing sector remains slow. Fiscal policy is restraining economic growth, although the extent of restraint is diminishing.

 

Liquidity

 

Liquidity is identified as the ability to generate or acquire sufficient amounts of cash when needed and at a reasonable cost to accommodate withdrawals, payments of debt, and increased loan demand. Liquid assets include cash, federal funds sold, securities classified as available for sale as well as loans and securities maturing within one year. As a result of the Company’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and meet its customers’ credit needs. The Company’s management, under the direction of the Asset/Liability Committee of the Board of Directors, reviews the mix of monetary assets and liabilities to ensure the Company maintains an adequate level of liquidity at all times. This ensures that the Company’s sources of funds, primarily net fluctuations in customer deposits, investment securities and correspondent banking relationships, must be balanced with the Company’s obligations, commitments, and operational requirements, to maintain overall liquidity in conjunction with the maximization of interest rate spreads.

 

 
23

 

 

The Company’s asset based liquidity position, cash and due from bank balances, federal funds sold and securities available for sale, net of securities pledged and cash balance requirements totaled $60.6 million and $63.1 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

 

The Company’s primary source of funding is its retail deposit base. The Company aggressively markets in its trade area and seeks demand deposits through service-related tactics and savings deposits through competitive pricing tactics. If this funding source is not attractive either for reasons of maturity or pricing, alternative funding sources include Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances, brokered deposits, fed funds purchased and guidance lines of credit. The Company is approved to borrow 20% of our total assets from the FHLB subject to providing qualifying collateral. At June 30, 2014, the Company had borrowed $26.0 million of the $30.1 million of lendable collateral value, leaving $4.1 million of unused credit immediately available. The Company also has an $8 million guidance line of credit to borrow against securities. The limit on this line is 15% of assets. In addition, the Company had $18.5 million of fed funds lines of credit available at June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2014, there were no advances on the fed funds or guidance lines.

 

Capital Requirements

 

The maintenance of appropriate levels of capital is a priority and is continually monitored. Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum capital ratios. Failure to meet minimum capital ratios can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank, categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

 

In the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk. These financial instruments involve commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The same credit policy is used in making commitments as is used for on-balance-sheet risk.

 

At June 30, 2014 outstanding commitments to extend credit including letters of credit were $67.8 million. There are no commitments to extend credit on impaired loans.

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no breach of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments may expire without ever being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash outlays for the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-01, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU permit reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects before the date of adoption may continue to apply the effective yield method for those preexisting investments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-01 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, “Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-04 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” The amendments in this ASU change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results and include disposals of a major geographic area, a major line of business, or a major equity method investment. The new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. Additionally, the new guidance requires disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in the ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606”. This ASU applies to any entity using U.S. GAAP that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The guidance supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, most industry-specific guidance, and some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, “Revenue Recognition—Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To be in alignment with the core principle, an entity must apply a five step process including: identification of the contract(s) with a customer, identification of performance obligations in the contract(s), determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognition of revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Additionally, the existing requirements for the recognition of a gain or loss on the transfer of nonfinancial assets that are not in a contract with a customer have also been amended to be consistent with the guidance on recognition and measurement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation”. The amendments in this ASU remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915, “Development Stage Entities”, from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. In addition, this ASU adds an example disclosure and removes an exception provided to development stage entities in Topic 810, “Consolidation”, for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity. The presentation and disclosure requirements in Topic 915 will no longer be required for the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. The revised consolidation standards are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-10 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures”. This ASU aligns the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements executed as a repurchase financing with the accounting for other typical repurchase agreements. The new guidance eliminates sale accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and supersedes the guidance under which a transfer of a financial asset and a contemporaneous repurchase financing could be accounted for on a combined basis as a forward agreement. The amendments in the ASU also require a new disclosure for transactions economically similar to repurchase agreements in which the transferor retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial assets throughout the term of the transaction. Additional disclosures will be required for the nature of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014; however, the disclosure for transactions accounted for as secured borrowings is required to be presented for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-11 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period”. The new guidance applies to reporting entities that grant employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award allow a performance target to be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments in the ASU require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. Existing guidance in “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718)”, should be applied to account for these types of awards. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted and reporting entities may choose to apply the amendments in the ASU either on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-12 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
