NOTE 1:Nature of Operation and Conversion

 

Cincinnati Bancorp (“Cincinnati Bancorp” and, together with Cincinnati Federal, the “Company”) is the parent holding company of Cincinnati Federal (the “Bank”) and the majority-owned subsidiary of CF Mutual Holding Company (“CF Mutual”), a Federally-chartered mutual holding company.

 

The Bank is a federally chartered thrift institution and is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking and financial services to individual and corporate customers in Hamilton County, Ohio and surrounding areas. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank is subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities. During the second quarter of 2016, Cincinnati Federal ceased the operations of the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Cincinnati Federal Investment Services, LLC. The termination of Cincinnati Federal Investment Services, LLC did not have a material impact on operations.

 

On October 14, 2015, the Bank completed a mutual-to-stock conversion pursuant to which it became the wholly-owned subsidiary of Cincinnati Bancorp and CF Mutual was established as the mutual holding company of Cincinnati Bancorp. As part of the conversion transaction, Cincinnati Bancorp sold, in a subscription offering and at a price of $10.00 per share, 45% of its common stock to the Bank’s eligible members, to the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) and to certain other persons. The total offering value and the number of shares was based on an independent appraiser’s valuation. The remaining 55% of the common stock was issued to CF Mutual. Cincinnati Bancorp’s common stock is currently quoted on the OTCPink Market, operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the symbol “CNNB.”

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company as of December 31, 2015 included in Cincinnati Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been included to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2016 and the results of operation for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. All interim amounts have not been audited and results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016, included herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire fiscal year.

 

The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 include the accounts of Cincinnati Bancorp and the Bank. All significant intercompany items have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans, loan servicing rights and fair values of financial instruments.

NOTE 2:Securities

 

Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

 

For debt securities with fair value below amortized cost when the Company does not intend to sell a debt security, and it is more likely than not the Company will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it recognizes the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income.

 

The amortized cost and approximate fair values, together with gross unrealized gains and losses, of securities are as follows:

 

   Amortized
Cost
   Gross
Unrealized
Gains
   Gross
Unrealized
Losses
   Fair Value 
Available-for-Sale Securities:                    
                     
June 30, 2016:                    
Mortgage-backed securities of government sponsored entities  $2,056,182   $19,313   $(5,628)  $2,069,867 
                     
December 31, 2015:                    
Mortgage-backed securities of government sponsored entities  $2,495,396   $18,602   $(20,698)  $2,493,300 

 

The Company had no sales of investment securities during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. The Company had not pledged any of its investment securities as of June 30, 2016 or December 31, 2015.

The amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

 

   June 30, 2016   December 31, 2015 
   Amortized   Fair   Amortized   Fair 
   Cost   Value   Cost   Value 
                 
Mortgage-backed securities of government sponsored entities  $2,056,182   $2,069,867   $2,495,396   $2,493,300 
                     
Totals  $2,056,182   $2,069,867   $2,495,396   $2,493,300 

 

Certain investments in debt securities have fair values at an amount less than their historical cost. The total fair value of these investments at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $830,495 and $1,723,706, respectively, which is approximately 40% and 69%, respectively of the Company’s investment portfolio.

 

The following tables show the gross unrealized losses and fair value of the Company’s investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporary impaired, aggregated by investment class and length of time that individual securities have been in continuous unrealized loss position at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

Cincinnati Bancorp

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

The Company has adopted a standard grading system for all loans.

 

Definitions are as follows:

 

Prime (1) loans are of superior quality with excellent credit strength and repayment ability proving a nominal credit risk.

 

Good (2) loans are of above average credit strength and repayment ability proving only a minimal credit risk.

 

Satisfactory (3) loans are of reasonable credit strength and repayment ability proving an average credit risk due to one or more underlying weaknesses.

 

Acceptable (4) loans are of the lowest acceptable credit strength and weakened repayment ability providing a cautionary credit risk due to one or more underlying weaknesses. New borrowers are typically not underwritten within this classification.

 

Special Mention (5) loans 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 loan or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention loans are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Ordinarily, special mention credits have characteristics which corrective management action would remedy.

 

Substandard (6) loans are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

 

Doubtful (7) loans have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current known facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

 

Loss (8) loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, less shares in the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) that are unallocated and not committed to be released. There were no dilutive shares at June 30, 2016 or June 30, 2015.

 

The computations are as follows:

 

   Three months ended June 30,   Six months ended June 30,

NOTE 5:Regulatory Matters

 

The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Furthermore, the Company’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in these financial statements.

 

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), common equity Tier I capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital to average assets (as defined). Management believes that, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject at such dates.

 

Effective January 1, 2015, new regulatory capital requirements commonly referred to as ‘Basel III” were implemented and are reflected below. Management opted out of the accumulated comprehensive income treatment under the new requirements, and as such unrealized gains and losses from available-for-sale securities will continue to be excluded from regulatory capital.

A new rule requiring a Capital Conservation Buffer began phase-in on January 1, 2016. Under the fully-implemented rule, a financial institution will need to maintain a Capital Conservation Buffer composed of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital of at least 2.5% above its minimum risk-weighted capital requirements to avoid limitations on its ability to make capital distributions, including dividend payments to shareholders and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. A financial institution with a buffer below 2.5% will be subject to increasingly stringent limitations on capital distributions as the buffer approaches zero.

 

As of the most recent notification from their regulators, the Company and Bank were categorized as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since the last notification that would change the Bank's category.

 

The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the following table:

NOTE 6:Disclosure About Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2Observable 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 3Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Recurring Measurements

 

The following tables present the fair value measurements of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

 

Available-for-sale Securities

 

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent asset pricing services and pricing models, the inputs of which are market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, prepayments, defaults, cumulative loss projections and cash flows. Such securities are classified in

 

 23 

 

 

Cincinnati Bancorp

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In certain cases where Level 1 and Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

 

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

Mortgage servicing rights do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow models having significant inputs of loan balance, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, escrow payments, servicing fees, prepayment speeds, float, cost to service, ancillary income, and discount rate. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, mortgage servicing rights are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

 

Mortgage servicing rights are tested for impairment. Management measures mortgage servicing rights through use of a third-party independent valuation. Inputs to the model are reviewed by management.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of recurring fair value measurements related to mortgage servicing rights recognized in the accompanying balance sheets using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs:

 

   Three Months   Three Months   Six Months   Six Months 
   Ended   Ended   Ended   Ended 
   June 30,   June 30,   June 30,   June 30, 
   2016   2015   2016   2015 
                 
Fair value as of the beginning of the period  $629,315   $569,988   $630,316   $513,853 
Recognition of mortgage servicing rights on the sale of loans   71,786    49,917    101,615    60,184 
Changes in fair value due to changes in valuation inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model   (38,417)   13,131    (69,247)   58,999 
                     
Fair value at the end of the period  $662,684   $633,036   $662,684   $633,036 

 

Mortgage servicing rights are carried in the balance sheet at fair value and the changes in fair value are reported in other noninterest income in the period in which the changes occur.

 

Collateral-dependent Impaired Loans, Net of Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The Company considers the appraisal or evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value. Appraisals of the collateral underlying collateral-dependent loans are obtained when the loan is determined to be collateral-dependent and subsequently as deemed necessary by management. Appraisals are reviewed for accuracy and consistency by management. Appraisers are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management. The appraised values are reduced by discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of the loan is dependent on the sale of the collateral. These discounts and estimates are developed by management by comparison to historical results.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale

 

Foreclosed assets held for sale are carried at the lower of fair value at acquisition date or current estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell when the real estate is acquired. Estimated fair value of real estate is based on appraisals or evaluations. Foreclosed assets held for sale are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Appraisals of real estate are obtained when the real estate is acquired and an appraisal is subsequently deemed necessary by events in the environment by the Chief Financial Officer. Appraisals are reviewed internally for accuracy and consistency in accordance with regulatory requirements. Appraisers are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management.

 

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fell at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments recognized in the accompanying balance sheets at amounts other than fair value.

 

Cash and cash equivalents, Federal Home Loan Bank Stock and Interest Receivable

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

 

Loans Held for Sale

 

Fair value of loans held for sale is based on quoted market prices, where available, or is determined by discounting estimated cash flows using interest rates approximating the Bank’s current origination rates for similar loans and adjusted to reflect the inherent credit risk.

 

Loans

 

The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the market rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the calculations.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank Lender Risk Account Receivable

 

The fair value of the Federal Home Loan Bank lender risk account receivable is estimated by discounting the estimated remaining cash flows of each strata of the receivable at current rates applicable to each strata for the same remaining maturities.

Deposits

 

Deposits include demand deposits and savings accounts. The carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

 

Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing debt. Fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market. If a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique is used to estimate fair value.

 

Advances from Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance and Interest Payable

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

 

Commitments to Originate Loans, Forward Sale Commitments, Letters of Credit and Lines of Credit

 

The fair value of commitments to originate loans is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of forward sale commitments is estimated based on current market prices for loans of similar terms and credit quality. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the fair value of commitments was not material.

NOTE 7:Commitments and Credit Risk

 

Commitments to Originate Loans

 

Commitments to originate loans are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since a portion of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate.

 

Forward sale commitments are commitments to sell groups of residential mortgage loans that the Company originates or purchases as part of its mortgage banking activities. The Company commits to sell the loans at specified prices in a future period. These commitments are acquired to reduce market risk on mortgage loans in the process of origination and mortgage loans held for sale since the Company is exposed to interest rate risk during the period between issuing a loan commitment and the sale of the loan into the secondary market.

 

The dollar amount of commitments to fund fixed rate loans at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 follows:

 

   June 30,  December, 31
   2016  2015
   (Unaudited)       
       Interest Rate      Interest Rate
   Amount   Range  Amount   Range
                 
Commitments to fund fixed-rate loans  $11,776,592   3.125% - 4.625%  $2,259,178   3.125% - 4.625%

 

Lines of Credit

 

Lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates. Since a portion of the line may expire without being drawn upon, the total unused lines do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

NOTE 9:Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

FASB ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. In issuing the standard, the FASB is responding to criticism that today’s guidance delays recognition of credit losses. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model. The new model, referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model, will apply to: (1) financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and (2) certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. This includes, but is not limited to, loans, leases, held-to-maturity securities, loan commitments, and financial guarantees. The CECL model does not apply to available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities. For AFS debt securities with unrealized losses, entities will measure credit losses in a manner similar to what they do today, except that the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. As a result, entities will recognize improvements to estimated credit losses immediately in earnings rather than as interest income over time, as they do today. The ASU also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan and lease losses. In addition, entities will need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (i.e., modified retrospective approach). The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 to determine the potential impact the new standard will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718)

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This ASU includes provisions intended to simplify various aspects related to how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. Some of the key provisions of this new ASU include: (1) companies will no longer record excess tax benefits and certain tax deficiencies in additional paid-in capital (“APIC”). Instead, they will record all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement, and APIC pools will be eliminated. The guidance also eliminates the requirement that excess tax benefits be realized before companies can recognize them. In addition, the guidance requires companies to present excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows rather than as a financing activity; (2) increase the amount an employer can withhold to cover income taxes on awards and still qualify for the exception to liability classification for shares used to satisfy the employer’s statutory income tax withholding obligation. The new guidance will also require an employer to classify the cash paid to a tax authority when shares are withheld to satisfy its statutory income tax withholding obligation as a financing activity on its statement of cash flows (current guidance did not specify how these cash flows should be classified); and (3) permit companies to make an accounting policy election for the impact of forfeitures on the recognition of expense for share-based payment awards. Forfeitures can be estimated, as required today, or recognized when they occur. ASU No. 2016-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted, but all of the guidance must be adopted in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 to determine the potential impact the new standard will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)

 

ASU No. 2016-02 was issued in February 2016 and requires a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (“the lease liability”) and a right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. When measuring assets and liabilities arising from a lease, the lessee should include payments to be made in optional periods only if the lessee is reasonably certain, as defined, to exercise an option to the lease or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease. Optional payments to purchase the underlying asset should be included if the lessee is reasonably certain it will exercise the purchase option. Most variable lease payments should be excluded except for those that depend on an index or a rate or are in substance fixed payments.

 

A lessee shall classify a lease as a finance lease if it meets any of the five listed criteria:

 

 31 

 

 

Cincinnati Bancorp

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

a.The lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term.
b.The lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise.
c.The lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset.
d.The present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset.
e.The underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term.

 

For finance leases, a lessee shall recognize in the statement of comprehensive income interest on the lease liability separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset. Amortization of the right-to-use asset shall be on a straight-line basis, unless another basis is more representative of the pattern in which the lessee expects to consume the right-of-use asset’s future economic benefits. If the lease does not meet any of the five criteria, the lessee shall classify it as an operating lease and shall recognize a single lease cost on a straight line basis over the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

FASB ASU 2015-11, Transfers and Servicing

 

Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860), Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures, was issued in June 2015. The amendments in this Update require disclosures for certain transactions comprising a transfer of a financial asset accounted for as a sale and an agreement with the same transferee entered into in contemplation of the initial transfer that results in the transferor retaining substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial asset throughout the term of the transaction. This Update also requires certain disclosures for repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings. The accounting changes in this Update were effective for public business entities for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2015. For public business entities, the disclosure for certain transactions accounted for as a sale is required to be presented for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and for disclosure for repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions accounted for as secured borrowings is required to be presented for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. The disclosures are not required to be presented for comparative periods before the effective date. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

 

In May 2015, the FASB issued amended guidance on revenue recognition from contracts with customers. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most contract revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the amended 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. The amended guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within the reporting period, and should be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments recognized at the date of initial application. Early adoption is prohibited. Management is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of the amended guidance on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

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

 

General

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations at and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto, appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “indicate,” “would,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “target” and words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

 

·statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;

 

·statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;

 

·statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and

 

·estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits.

 

These forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs and expectations and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. We are under no duty to and do not take any obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Form 10-Q.

 

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:

 

·our ability to manage our operations under the current adverse economic conditions nationally and in our market area;

 

·adverse changes in the financial industry, securities, credit and national local real estate markets (including real estate values), or in the secondary mortgage markets;

 

·significant increases in our loan losses, including as a result of our inability to resolve classified and non-performing assets or reduce risks associated with our loans, and management’s assumptions in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses;

 

·credit risks of lending activities, including changes in the level and trend of loan delinquencies and write-offs and in our allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses;

 

·the use of estimates in determining fair value of certain of our assets, which may prove to be incorrect and result in significant declines in valuations;

 

·competition among depository and other financial institutions;

 

 34 

 

 

·our ability to successfully implement our business plan and to grow our franchise to improve profitability;

 

·our ability to attract and maintain deposits, and to obtain FHLB-Cincinnati advances;

 

·changes in interest rates generally, including changes in the relative differences between short term and long term interest rates and in deposit interest rates, that may affect our net interest margin and funding sources, and our ability to originate loans for portfolio and for sale in the secondary market;

 

·fluctuations in the demand for loans, which may be affected by the number of unsold homes, land and other properties in our market areas and by declines in the value of real estate in our market area;

 

·changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

 

·declines in the yield on our assets resulting from the current low interest rate environment;

 

·risks related to a high concentration of loans secured by real estate located in our market area;

 

·the results of examinations by our regulators, including the possibility that our regulators may, among other things, require us to increase our allowance for loan losses, write down assets, change our regulatory capital position, limit our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, or prohibit us from paying dividends, which could adversely affect our dividends and earnings;

 

·changes in the level of government support of housing finance;

 

·our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities;

 

·changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including the Dodd-Frank Act and the JOBS Act, which could result in, among other things, increased deposit insurance premiums and assessments, capital requirements, regulatory fees and compliance costs, particularly the new capital regulations, and the resources we have available to address such changes;

 

·changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;

 

·changes in our compensation and benefit plans, and our ability to retain key members of our senior management team and to address staffing needs in response to product demand or to implement our strategic plans;

 

·loan delinquencies and changes in the underlying cash flows of our borrowers;

 

·our ability to control costs and expenses, particularly those associated with operating as a publicly traded company;

 

·the failure or security breaches of computer systems on which we depend;

 

·the ability of key third-party service providers to perform their obligations to us;

 

·changes in the financial condition or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own; and

 

 35 

 

 

·other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and operational factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services described elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

Because of these and a wide variety of other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in Cincinnati Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015

 

Total Assets. Total assets were $152.4 million at June 30, 2016, an increase of $10.1 million, or 7.1%, over the $142.2 million at December 31, 2015. The increase resulted primarily from increases in cash and cash equivalents of $1.8 million and net loans of $8.1 million, offset in part by a decrease of $423,000 in available-for-sale securities.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $1.8 million, or 21.6%, to $10.1 million at June 30, 2016 from $8.3 million at December 31, 2015. This increase was primarily the result of additional FHLB borrowings of $9.5 million and checking deposit growth of $1.7 million, offset in part by funding an increase in net loans of $8.1 million and a decrease in certificates of deposits of $714,000.

 

Net Loans. Net loans increased $8.1 million, or 6.8%, to $127.9 million at June 30, 2016 from $119.8 million at December 31, 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we originated $12.9 million of loans for portfolio, $5.7 million of which were one- to four- family residential real estate loans, $4.4 million were multi-family loans, $2.2 million were home equity lines of credit, and $258,000 were construction and land loans. In the period ending June 30, 2016, we sold $24.2 million of one to four family residential loans, on both a servicing–retained and servicing–released basis. Subject to market conditions, management intends to continue this sales activity in future periods to generate gain on sale revenue and servicing fee income.

 

The largest increase in our loan portfolio was in the one- to four-family owner occupied residential real estate loan portfolio. This growth reflects our strategy to grow the portfolio with adjustable-rate loans and mitigate interest rate risk on the balance sheet. We currently sell certain fixed-rate, 15- and 30-year term mortgage loans. We have sold loans on both a servicing-released and servicing-retained basis to: the FHLB-Cincinnati, through its mortgage purchase program; Freddie Mac; and certain private sector third-party buyers.

 

Loans Held for Sale. Loans held for sale increased $498,000 to $2.9 million at June 30, 2016 from $2.4 million at December 31, 2015 due to increased origination activity.

 

Available-for-Sale Securities. Available-for-sale securities, which consisted entirely of government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities, decreased $423,000, or 17.0%, to $2.1 million at June 30, 2016 from $2.5 million at December 31, 2015. There were no securities purchases during the period and $426,000 in maturities, the remaining difference was due to the change in market values within the portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Deposits. Deposits increased $1.4 million, or 1.38%, to $104.4 million at June 30, 2016 from $103.0 million at December 31, 2015. Core deposits, defined as demand, NOW and savings accounts, increased $2.1 million, or 5.92%, to $38.1 million at June 30, 2016 from $36.0 million at December 31, 2015. The increase was primarily the result of marketing efforts directed at increasing demand deposit accounts. The primary marketing effort during the period involved offering a one-time bonus payment of up to $300 to open a new checking account with direct deposit. Time deposits decreased $714,000, or 1.1%, to $66.3 million at June 30, 2016 from $67.0 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease in time deposits was primarily due to lower CD offering rates on certain terms to decrease CD interest expense. Certificates originated through the National CD Rateline service declined $1.1 million to $19.4 million at June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, management continued its strategy of pursuing growth in lower cost core deposits, and intends to continue its efforts to increase core deposits.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $201,000, or 1.1%, to $17.8 million at June 30, 2016 from $17.6 million at December 31, 2015. The increase resulted from net income for the period of $176,000 and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $25,000.

 

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015

 

General. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $140,000, compared to net income of $189,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, a decrease of 49,000, or 25.8%. The decrease was primarily due to an $33,000 decrease in noninterest income and a $63,000 increase in noninterest expense partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $20,000 and a decrease in the provision of loan losses of $9,000.

 

Interest Income. Interest income increased $68,000, or 5.4%, to $1.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 from the comparable quarter in 2015. Interest income on loans increased $68,000, or 5.6%, to $1.3 million as of June 30, 2016 compared to $1.2 million for the comparable quarter in 2015. The average balance of loans during the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased $12.3 million to $128.4 million, compared to $116.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The average yield on loans decreased 19 basis points to 4.05% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from 4.24% for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Interest income on securities available-for-sale decreased $2,000 primarily due to a 3 basis point increase in average yield on the securities portfolio offset by a $942,000 decrease in the balance of the average securities portfolio during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. Interest income on other investments increased $1,000 in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same quarter in 2015.

 

Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased 48,000, or 14.6%, to $378,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 from $330,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Interest expense on deposit accounts increased $63,000, or 25.6%, to $309,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 from $246,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The increase between comparable quarters in 2016 from 2015 was primarily due to a $15,000 increase in interest expense on certificates of deposit resulting from a $2.6 million, or 3.9%, increase in the average balance of these certificates and a 4 basis point increase in the average cost of certificates. Checking interest expense increased $48,000 from the comparable quarter in 2015. The increase in interest expense in the checking accounts reflects bonus incentives offered on new checking accounts. The bonus promotion program ended at the end of June 2016. The average balances in interest bearing and non-interest bearing accounts during the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased $5.5 million to $17.5 million compared to $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Savings interest expense remained unchanged at $5,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to June 30, 2015.

 

Interest expense on FHLB advances decreased $15,000, or 17.9%, to $69,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 from $84,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The average balance of advances remained the same at $21.9 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015. The average cost of FHLB borrowing decreased 28 basis points to 1.26% from 1.54%. The decrease in the average cost of advances results from the use of lower costing, short term cash management advances.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $20,000, or 2.2%, to $936,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $916,000 the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Average interest-earning assets increased $16.4 million primarily due to a $12.3 million increase in average outstanding loans during the quarter. In addition, DDA balances held at the Federal Home Loan Bank were reclassified as interest earning as the account was migrated from a compensating balance pricing structure to an explicit pricing structure. The net impact in the current interest rate environment is not significant. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $2.6 million from the same quarter in 2015 due to the funding needed for the increase in lending during the first quarter of 2016. The interest rate spread decreased 44 basis points to 2.54% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to 2.98% at quarter ended June 30, 2015. The net interest margin decreased 30 basis points to 2.74% for the second quarter of 2016 from 3.04% for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The interest rate spread and net interest margin were impacted by a continuation of the low interest rate environment.

 

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses decreased $9,000, or 100.0%, as there was no provision for loan losses recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The decrease in the provision for loan losses was based on managements’ evaluation and was primarily due to the improving quality of the loan portfolio as total delinquencies and other nonperforming loans decreased.

 

The allowance for loan losses reflects the estimate we believe to be appropriate to cover probable losses which were inherent in the loan portfolio at June 30, 2016. While we believe the estimates and assumptions used in our determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, such estimates and assumptions could be proven incorrect in the future, and the actual amount of future provisions may exceed the amount of past provisions, and the increase in future provisions that may be required may adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, bank regulatory agencies periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require an increase in the provision for possible loan losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of management.

 

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $32,000, or 4.7%, to $667,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 from $700,000 for the comparable quarter in 2015. The decrease was primarily due to a $58,000 decrease in other non-interest income due primarily to a $38,000 decrease in fair value of mortgage servicing rights in the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to a $13,000 increase in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Offsetting the decrease in non-interest income was an increase on the gain on sale of loans of $19,000 or 3.9% in the quarter. Servicing income on the sold loan portfolio increased $6,000 due to an increase in the total amount of loans serviced, primarily, for the FHLB – Cincinnati and Freddie Mac.

 

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $63,000, or 4.71%, to $1.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $1.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The increase was due primarily to a $27,000, or 4.05%, increase in salary and employee benefits to $683,000 in the second quarter of 2016 from $656,000 for the comparable quarter in 2015 caused by increased staffing demands, higher commission payouts to mortgage loan officers, ESOP expense and payroll expense. Data processing expense increased $24,000, or 21.0%, to $141,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 from $117,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The increase was due to bank growth and a one-time expense for payment card industry compliance assessed by our core data processor. Advertising expense increased $27,000, or 67.19% due to a promotional campaign to acquire new checking account customers. The advertising campaign ended in June. Loan cost expense decreased $65,000 or 49.41% primarily due to a reduction in lender credits given to borrowers due to market conditions. Other non-interest expense increased $32,000, or 28.95%, to $143,000 during the second quarter of 2016 from $111,000 for the comparable quarter in 2015 due primarily to increased costs related to being a public company including legal, transfer agent, printing and filing fees of $29,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Federal Income Taxes. Federal income taxes decreased $18,000 due to a decreased in pre-tax income of $66,000 for the quarter ending June 30, 2016 compared to pre-tax income for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.

 

Average Balances and Yields. The following tables set forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information at the dates and for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments have been made. Any adjustments necessary to present yields on a tax-equivalent basis are insignificant. All average balances are monthly average balances. Management does not believe that the use of month-end balances instead of daily average balances has caused any material differences in the information presented. Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances only. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts, and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or interest expense.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015

 

General. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $176,000, compared to net income of $308,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, a decrease of $132,000, or 42.8%. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $147,000 decrease in non-interest income and a $176,000 increase in non-interest expense, partially offset by a $128,000 increase in net interest income after provision for loan losses.

 

Interest Income. Interest income increased $178,000, or 7.4%, to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from the comparable six months in 2015. Interest income on loans increased $182,000 primarily due to a $13.4 million increase in the average balance of loans during the first six months of 2016 compared to the same six months in 2015, partially offset by a 16 basis point decrease in the average yield on loans. Interest income on securities available-for-sale decreased $7,000 primarily due to a 21 basis point decrease in average yield on the securities portfolio and a $916,000 decrease in the average balance of the securities portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Interest income on other investments increased $2,000 in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. The increase was the result, in part, of FHLB DDA pricing migrating from a compensating balance arrangement to explicit pricing with collected DDA balances earning a daily rate of interest.

 

Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $91,000, or 14.6%, to $710,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $619,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Interest expense on deposit accounts increased $112,000, or 24.2%, to $576,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $464,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase between comparable six month periods in 2016 from 2015 was primarily due to a $69,000 increase in interest expense on checking accounts. The increase in checking account expense reflects a promotional one-time bonus paid to new checking account customers. The checking account promotion ended in June 2016. Interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $44,000 resulting from a $5.7 million, or 9.1%, increase in the average balance of these certificates and a 1 basis point increase in the average cost of certificates of deposit. Interest expense on savings accounts decreased $2,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Interest expense on FHLB advances decreased $22,000, or 14.0%, to $134,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $155,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The average balance of advances decreased $353,000 to $20.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $21.1 million for the same six months in 2015, while the average cost of these advances decreased 131 basis points to 1.29% from 2.60%. The decrease in the average cost of FHLB Advances was due to the increased use of lower cost, short term cash management borrowings.

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $87,000, or 4.9%, to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $1.8 million the six months ended June 30, 2015. Average interest-earning assets increased $17.7 million primarily due to a $13.4 million increase in average outstanding loans during the six months and the reclassification of FHLB DDA balances as interest earning. Interest-bearing liabilities increased $4.4 million from the same six months in 2015 due to the funding needed for the increase in lending during the first six months of 2016. The interest rate spread declined 35 basis points to 2.68% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from 3.03% for the comparable six months in 2015. Our net interest margin decreased 27 basis points to 2.81% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from 3.08% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The interest rate spread and net interest margin were impacted by a continuation of the low interest rate environment.

 

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses decreased $41,000, or 100.0%. There was no provision for loan losses recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $41,000 for the same six months in 2015. The decrease in the provision for loan losses was due to the improving quality of the loan portfolio as total delinquencies and other nonperforming loans decreased.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $147,000, or 12.2%, to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $1.2 million for the comparable six months in 2015. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $69,000 in other non-interest income primarily due to a $129,000 decrease in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights recorded a loss of $69,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to a gain of $60,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in value is principally the result of the increase in projected prepayment speeds due to lower mortgage rates used in the valuation model. The gain on sale of loans declined $86,000 or 10.4% due to slower secondary market activity in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Servicing fees on loans sold increased $8,000 or 11.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to an increase in the amount of loans serviced for the FHLB-Cincinnati and Freddie Mac.

 

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $176,000, or 7.0%, to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was due in part to a $49,000, or 3.8%, increase in salary and employee benefits to $1.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to increased lending personnel, higher mortgage loan originator commissions, ESOP expense, and payroll expenses. Data processing expense increased $33,000, or 13.8%, to $268,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $235,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was due to a one-time assessment for PCI compliance from our core data processor and bank growth. Advertising expense increased $35,000 primarily from a checking account promotional campaign. The promotional campaign ended in June 2016. Franchise tax expense increased $23,000 due to higher capital levels from the stock offering. The state of Ohio assesses franchise tax based on the level of capital. Other non-interest expense increased $54,000, or 23.3%, to $286,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $232,000 for the comparable six months in 2015 due primarily to increased costs related being a public company including legal, transfer agent, printing and filing fees of $41,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Federal Income Taxes. Federal income taxes, which are based on operating results, decreased $63,000 due to decreased pre-tax net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. Liquidity is the ability to meet financial obligations that arise in the ordinary course of business. Liquidity is primarily needed to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers and to fund current and planned expenditures. Our primary source of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, proceeds from the sale of loans, and proceeds from the sale or maturities of securities. In addition, the Bank may borrow from the FHLB. At June 30, 2016, we had $28.2 million outstanding in advances from the FHLB. At June 30, 2016, we had the capacity to borrow an additional $8.5 million at June 30, 2016. The Bank had additional lines of credit with two commercial banks totaling $6.5 million.

 

While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are probable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. Our most liquid assets are cash and short term investments including interest-bearing demand deposits. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period.

 

Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. Net cash used by operating activities was $720,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Net cash used in investing activities, which consists primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of securities, offset by principal collections on loans, proceeds from the sale of securities and proceeds from maturing securities and pay downs on mortgage-backed securities, was $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, and $8.3 million for six months ended June 30, 2015. Net cash provided by financing activities, consisting primarily of the activity in deposit accounts and FHLB advances, was $10.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, and $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 resulting from our strategy of increasing retail checking and FHLB borrowings to fund loan originations.

 

We are committed to maintaining a strong liquidity position. We monitor our liquidity position on a daily basis. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to meet our current funding commitments. Based on our deposit retention experience and current pricing strategy, we anticipate that a significant portion of maturing time deposits will be retained. We also anticipate continued participation in the National CD Rateline Program as a wholesale source of certificates of deposit, and continued use of FHLB-Cincinnati advances.

 

Cincinnati Bancorp is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity to pay any dividend to its stockholders and for other corporate purposes. Cincinnati Bancorp’s primary source of liquidity is dividend payments, if any, received from the Bank. The Bank’s ability to pay dividends is subject to regulatory restrictions. At June 30, 2016, Cincinnati Bancorp (on an unconsolidated, stand-alone basis) had liquid assets of $350,000.

 

At June 30, 2016, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements with a Tier 1 leverage capital level of $17.7 million, or 11.8% of adjusted total assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $7.5 million, or 5.0%; total risk-based capital of $19.0 million, or 18.1% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $10.5 million, or 10.0%; and common equity tier 1 risk based capital of $17.7 million, or 16.9%, of risk weighted assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $6.8 million, or 6.5%. At December 31, 2015, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements with a Tier 1 leverage capital level of $17.5 million, or 12.2% of adjusted total assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $7.2 million, or 5.0%; and total risk-based capital of $18.8 million, or 18.6% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $10.1 million, or 10.0%. Accordingly, Cincinnati Federal was categorized as well capitalized at June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2015. Management is not aware of any conditions or events since the most recent notification that would change its category.
