NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Poage Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company” or “Poage”) and its wholly owned subsidiary Town Square Bank (which was formerly operated under the name “Home Federal Savings and Loan Association”) (the “Bank”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements are based on various factors including the current interest rate environment and the general strength of the local economy. Changes in the overall interest rate environment can significantly affect the Company’s net interest income and the value of its recorded assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. All interim amounts have not been audited, and the results of operations for the interim periods herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed as part of the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU will require recognition of the income tax effects of share-based awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled (i.e., Additional Paid-in-Capital pools will be eliminated). The amendments are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The guidance in the ASU No. 2016-09 was adopted by the Company and did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Newly Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) developed as a joint project with the International Accounting Standards Board to remove inconsistencies in revenue requirements and provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues. The ASU's requires that revenue from contracts with clients be recognized upon transfer of control of a good or service in the amount of consideration expected to be received and changes the accounting for certain contract costs, including whether they may be offset against revenue in the statements of income, and requires additional disclosures about revenue and contract costs. The ASU may be adopted using either a modified retrospective method or a full retrospective method. Poage intends to adopt the ASU during the first quarter of 2018, as required, using a modified retrospective approach. Poage’s preliminary analysis suggests that the adoption of this accounting guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements as the majority of its revenue stream is generated from financial instruments which are not within the scope of this ASU. While the Company believes this ASU will have an immaterial impact, it continues to evaluate this ASU for changing facts and circumstances in the Company's operations as the effective date approaches.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The ASU makes several modifications to Subtopic 825-10 including the elimination of the available-for-sale classification of equity investments, and requires equity investments with readily determinable fair values to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. This ASU will become effective for the Company for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 Leases guidance requiring the recognition in the statement of financial position of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The guidance requires that a lessee should recognize lease assets and lease liabilities as compared to previous GAAP that did not require lease assets and lease liabilities to be recognized for most leases. The guidance becomes effective for us on January 1, 2019. The Company leases two facilities. Upon adoption of this standard, an asset will be recorded to recognize the right of the Company to use the leased facilities and a liability will be recorded representing the obligation to make all future lease payments on those facilities. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (the ASU), which introduces the current expected credit losses methodology. Among other things, the ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets, including loans and available-for-sale debt securities, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The new model will require institutions to calculate all probable and estimable losses that are expected to be incurred through the loan's entire life. ASU 2016-13 also requires the allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since origination to be determined in a manner similar to that of other financial assets measured at amortized cost; however, the initial allowance will be added to the purchase price rather than recorded as credit loss expense. The disclosure of credit quality indicators related to the amortized cost of financing receivables will be further disaggregated by year of origination (or vintage). Institutions are to apply the changes through a cumulative-effect adjustment to their retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the standard is effective. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Poage is currently assessing the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption, an initial increase in the allowance for loan losses is currently anticipated by management along with a corresponding decrease in capital as permitted by the standard.

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-4, Intangible—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), to simplify accounting for goodwill impairment. The new guidance will simplify financial reporting because it eliminates the need to determine the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit to measure goodwill impairment. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. Poage is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fee and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The amendments affect all entities that hold investments in callable debt securities that have an amortized cost basis in excess of the amount that is repayable by the issuer. The amendments requires the premium for certain callable debt securities to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-08 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Scope of Modification Accounting which amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The ASU provided guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The amendments are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-09 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-10, Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853): Determining the Customer of the Operation Services, in response to the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force at its March 2017 meeting. The ASU addresses diversity in practice in how an operating entity determines the customer of the operation services for transactions within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 853, Service Concession Arrangements, by clarifying that the grantor is the customer of the operation services in all cases for those arrangements. The amendments also allow for a more consistent application of other aspects of the revenue guidance, which are affected by this customer determination. For public business entities that have adopted ASC 606, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Poage’s preliminary analysis suggests that the adoption of this accounting guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued Update No. 2017-11—Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The amendments in Part II of this Update do not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect. Poage is currently assessing the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Unrealized losses on bonds have not been recognized into income because the issuers of the bonds are of high credit quality, management does not intend to sell and it is not more likely than not that management would be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. For securities in an unrealized loss position, management considers the extent and duration of the unrealized loss, and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. Management also assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized as impairment through earnings. For debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment is split into two components as follows: 1) OTTI related to credit loss, which must be recognized in the income statement, and 2) OTTI related to other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. The credit loss is defined as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis. For equity securities, the entire amount of impairment is recognized through earnings.

CREDIT QUALITY INDICATORS:

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes all non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans. The analysis for residential real estate and consumer loans primarily includes review of past due status. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

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

Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss. Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectable and of such little value that continuing to carry them as an asset is not feasible. Loans will be classified as a loss when it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans.

NOTE 5 – FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

Securities: The fair values for securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of similar securities (Level 2). This includes the use of “matrix pricing” used to value debt securities absent the exclusive use of quoted prices. For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows (Level 3).

Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available for similar loans and collateral underlying such loans. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted in accordance with the allowance policy.

Other Real Estate Owned: Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate owned (OREO) are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, are as follows (in thousands):

Commercial and residential real estate properties classified as OREO are measured at fair value, less estimated costs to sell. Fair values are based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may use a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Appraisals for real estate properties classified as other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Bank’s management. The appraisal values are discounted to allow for selling expenses and fees, and the discounts range from 5% to 10%.

At June 30, 2017, impaired loans recorded at fair value had a net carrying amount of $1.9 million equal to the outstanding balance of $2.2 million, net of a valuation allowance of $300,000. At December 31, 2016, impaired loans recorded at fair value had a net carrying amount of $921,000 equal to the outstanding balance of $951,000, net of a valuation allowance of $30,000. There were charge-offs of $13,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, and $31,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

At June 30, 2017, other real estate owned recorded at fair value had a net carrying amount of $228,000 equal to the outstanding balance of $337,000, net of a valuation allowance of $109,000. There were $48,000 in write-downs for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and $58,000 in write-downs for the six months ended June 30, 2017. There were $14,000 in write-downs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. At December 31, 2016, other real estate owned recorded at fair value had a net carrying amount of $276,000, equal to the outstanding balance of $390,000, net of a valuation allowance of $114,000.

The methods and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair values are described as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

Restricted Stock:

It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB and Bankers Bank of Kentucky stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

Loans:

Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Deposits:

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are by definition equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 1 classification. The carrying amounts of variable rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Other borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and Subordinate debenture:

The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable:

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value and are classified by level consistent with the level of the related assets or liabilities.

NOTE 6 – ESOP

Employees participate in an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). The ESOP borrowed from the Company to purchase 269,790 shares of the Company’s common stock at $10 per share. The Company makes discretionary contributions to the ESOP, and pays dividends on unallocated shares to the ESOP, and the ESOP uses funds it receives to repay the loan. When loan payments are made, ESOP shares are allocated to participants based on relative compensation and expense is recorded. Dividends on allocated shares increase participant accounts. Participants receive the shares at the end of employment.

There were no contributions to the ESOP for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Shares held by the ESOP at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 8 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

On January 8, 2013, the shareholders of Poage Bankshares, Inc. approved the Poage Bankshares, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for employees and directors of the Company. The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 472,132 shares of the Company’s common stock, with no more than 134,895 of shares as restricted stock awards and 337,237 as stock options, either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options. The exercise price of options granted under the Plan may not be less than the fair market value on the date the stock option is granted. The compensation committee of the board of directors has sole discretion to determine the amount and to whom equity incentive awards are granted.

On April 16, 2013, the compensation committee of the board of directors approved the issuance of 134,895 shares of restricted stock to its directors and officers. In addition, on May 10, 2013, the compensation committee of the board of directors approved the issuance of 300,000 stock options to its directors and officers. An additional 20,000 stock option shares were issued on March 19, 2014 as a result of the acquisition of Town Square Financial Corporation by Poage Bankshares, Inc. An additional 5,000 stock option shares were issued on May 31, 2015 to employees. All stock options and restricted stock awards vest ratably over five years. Stock options expire ten years after issuance. Apart from the vesting schedule for both stock options and restricted stock, there are no performance-based conditions or any other material conditions applicable to the awards issued.

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2017:

				Weighted Average

Stock options are assumed to be earned ratably over their respective vesting periods and charged to compensation expense based upon their grant date fair value and the number of options assumed to be earned. At June 30, 2017, 142,850 options were outstanding and 99,600 options were fully vested and exercisable with intrinsic value of $591,000 and $412,000, respectively. At December 31, 2016, 179,900 options were outstanding and 101,400 options were fully vested and exercisable with intrinsic value of $698,000 and $393,000, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, 35,250 options vested. Stock-based compensation expense for stock options included in salaries and benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $18,000, $36,000, $19,000 and $50,000, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options was $76,000 at June 30, 2017 and $112,000 at December 31, 2016 and is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.9 years. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the aggregate intrinsic value of the options exercised under the plan was $132,000 determined as of the date of the option exercise.

The following table summarizes non-vested restricted stock activity for the six months ended June 30, 2017:

Balance -December 31, 2016	30,471
Granted	-
Forfeited	-
Vested	(15,114	)
Balance -June 30, 2017	15,357

The fair value of the restricted stock awards is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period (generally five years) and is based on the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant multiplied by the number of shares granted that are expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense for the restricted stock included in salaries and benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $57,000, $115,000, $60,000 and $178,000, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense for non-vested restricted stock awards was $184,000 at June 30, 2017 and $299,000 at December 31, 2016 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.

Critical Accounting Policies

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Poage Bankshares, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of such words as “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect,” “will,” “may,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

	>	statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;
	>	statements regarding our business plans and prospects and growth and operating strategies;
	>	statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios;
	>	estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits;
	>	statements about the financial condition, results of operations and business of Poage Bankshares.

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. Except as may be required by law, we do not take any obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. You should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

The following factors, among others, could cause the 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 (including real estate values, loan demand, inflation, commodity prices and unemployment levels) nationally and in our market area;

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

significant increases in our loan losses, including as a result of our inability to resolve classified assets, 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;

our ability to successfully enhance and maintain internal controls;

competition among depository and other financial institutions;

our success in increasing our commercial business and commercial real estate loans;

our ability to improve our asset quality even as we increase our commercial business, commercial real estate and multi-family lending;

our success in introducing new financial products;

our ability to attract and maintain deposits;

decreases in our asset quality;

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;

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

changes in the level of government support of housing finance;

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

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 organization, compensation and benefit plans and our ability to retain key members of our senior management team;

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

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

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

changes in the financial condition or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016

Total assets at June 30, 2017 decreased $784,000, or 0.2%, to $457.7 million from $458.5 million at December 31, 2016. The decrease was attributed to the repurchase of common stock totaling $3.6 million, a decrease of $7.6 million in loans and a decrease of $2.6 million in deposits, offset by an increase of $4.7 in securities available for sale, an increase of $2.0 million in FHLB advances and an increase of $1.5 million in other borrowings.

Cash and Cash equivalents increased by $3.0 million, or 12.3%, to $27.4 million at June 30, 2017 from $24.4 million at December 31, 2016. The increase in cash was primarily attributable to an increase in FHLB advances and other borrowing.

Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions increased $249,000, or 12.5%, to $2.2 million at June 30, 2017 from $2.0 million at December 31, 2016 due to the purchase of a certificate of deposit.

Securities available for sale increased by $4.7 million, or 8.0%, to $62.9 million at June 30, 2017 from $58.2 million at December 31, 2016. This increase is primarily due to $7.8 million in purchases and an increase in unrealized gain on securities held for sale, offset by maturities, calls and principal payments of $3.8 million.

Loans held for sale decreased $395,000, or 64.6%, to $216,000 at June 30, 2017 from $611,000 at December 31, 2016 due to a decrease in secondary market mortgage lending activity.

Loans, net, decreased $7.6 million, or 2.2%, to $336.3 million at June 30, 2017 from $343.9 million at December 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in one to four family, commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans. Non-performing loans increased $1.1 million, or 23.6%, to $5.8 million at June 30, 2017 from $4.7 million at December 31, 2016.

Deposits decreased $2.6 million, or 0.7%, to $372.1 million at June 30, 2017 from $374.7 million at December 31, 2016. The decrease was attributable to a decrease of $12.0 million in certificates of deposits, offset by an increase of $9.4 million in savings accounts and money market accounts.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $2.0 million, or 21.1%, to $11.3 million at June 30, 2017 from $9.3 million at December 31, 2016.

Other borrowings increased by $1.5 million, or 100%, at June 30, 2017 from $0 at December 31, 2016 for general working capital purposes. On June 16, 2016, Poage Bankshares, Inc. executed a $2.0 million commercial line of credit secured with Town Square Bank common stock, with an unaffiliated lender. On June 30, 2017, the interest rate on the line of credit was 4.50%.

Subordinated debenture increased by $32,000, or 1.1%, and remained unchanged at $2.8 million at June 30, 2017 and at December 31, 2016 due to the amortization of the fair value related to the subordinated debenture assumed in conjunction with acquisition of Town Square Financial Corporation. In December 2006, Town Square Statutory Trust I, a trust formed by Town Square Financial Corporation, closed a pooled private offering of 4,124 trust preferred securities with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per security. The subordinated debt of $2.8 million is shown as a liability because the Company is not considered the primary beneficiary of the Trust. The investment in common stock of the trust is $124,000 and is included in other assets. The subordinated debt has a variable rate of interest equal to the three month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.83%, which was 3.08% at June 30, 2017.

Total shareholders’ equity decreased by $2.5 million, or 3.6%, to $66.2 million at June 30, 2017 from $68.7 million at December 31, 2016. The decrease resulted from the repurchase of common stock totaling $3.6 million and the payment of cash dividends totaling $442,000, offset by net income of $830,000, an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $469,000 and an increase in additional paid-in capital of $283,000 related to the stock based compensation plans.

Average Balances and Yields

The following table sets forth average balances, average yields and costs, and certain other information at the dates and for the periods indicated. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accrual loans are included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the tables as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income. Interest income and rates exclude the effects of a tax equivalent adjustment to adjust tax exempt investment income on tax exempt investment securities to a fully taxable basis due to immateriality (dollars in thousands).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of funds are deposits and the proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans and investment securities. We also utilize Federal Home Loan Bank advances. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predicable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We generally manage the pricing of our deposits to be competitive within our market and to increase core deposit relationships.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term responsibility of management. We adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon management’s assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) expected deposit flows, (iii) yields available on interest-earning deposits and investment securities, and (iv) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning overnight deposits, federal funds sold, and short and intermediate-term investment securities. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally we have additional borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati. At June 30, 2017, we had $11.3 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and an additional borrowing capacity of $72.8 million.

Poage Bankshares, Inc. is a separate legal entity from Town Square Bank and must provide its own liquidity to pay dividends, repurchase stock and to fund other general corporate activities. Poage Bankshares, Inc.’s primary source of liquidity is dividend payments from Town Square Bank. The ability of Town Square Bank to pay dividends is subject to regulatory requirements. At June 30, 2017, Poage Bankshares, Inc. (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $800,000.

On June 16, 2016, Poage Bankshares, Inc. executed a $2.0 million commercial line of credit secured with Town Square Bank common stock, with an unaffiliated lender. The variable interest rate on the line of credit is 4.50% with an interest rate equal to the Wall Street Prime plus 0.50% adjusting monthly. The line of credit matures June 16, 2018. The line of credit will be used for general working capital purposes. At June 30, 2017, we had $500,000 available on the line of credit.

Federal regulations require FDIC-insured depository institutions to meet several minimum capital standards: a common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets ratio of 6.0%, a total capital to risk-based assets of 8%, and a 4% Tier 1 capital to total assets leverage ratio. The existing capital requirements were effective January 1, 2015 and are the result of a final rule implementing regulatory amendments based on recommendations of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act.

For purposes of the regulatory capital requirements, common equity Tier 1 capital is generally defined as common shareholders’ equity and retained earnings. Tier 1 capital is generally defined as common equity Tier 1 and additional Tier 1 capital. Additional Tier 1 capital includes certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries. Total capital includes Tier 1 capital (common equity Tier 1 capital plus additional Tier 1 capital) and Tier 2 capital. Tier 2 capital is comprised of capital instruments and related surplus, meeting specified requirements, and may include cumulative preferred stock and long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, intermediate preferred stock and subordinated debt. Also included in Tier 2 capital is the allowance for loan and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets and, for institutions that made such an election regarding the treatment of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”), up to 45% of net unrealized gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair market values. Institutions that have not exercised the AOCI opt-out have AOCI incorporated into common equity Tier 1 capital (including unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale-securities). We have exercised the AOCI opt-out. Calculation of all types of regulatory capital is subject to deductions and adjustments specified in the regulations.

In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets for purposes of calculating risk-based capital ratios, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets (e.g., recourse obligations, direct credit substitutes, residual interests) are multiplied by a risk weight factor assigned by the regulations based on the risks believed inherent in the type of asset. Higher levels of capital are required for asset categories believed to present greater risk. For example, a risk weight of 0% is assigned to cash and U.S. government securities, a risk weight of 50% is generally assigned to prudently underwritten first lien one- to four-family residential mortgages, a risk weight of 100% is assigned to commercial and consumer loans, a risk weight of 150% is assigned to certain past due loans and a risk weight of between 0% to 600% is assigned to permissible equity interests, depending on certain specified factors.

In addition to establishing the minimum regulatory capital requirements, the regulations limit capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments to management if the institution does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets above the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements. The capital conservation buffer requirement is being phased in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increasing each year until fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. When fully implemented, the capital conservation buffer will be 2.50% of risk weighted assets over and above the regulatory minimum capital ratios for Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (CET1) to risk weighted assets, Tier 1 Capital to risk weighted assets, and Total Capital to risk weighted assets. The consequences of not meeting the capital conservation buffer thresholds include restrictions on the payment of dividends, restrictions on the payment of discretionary bonuses, and restrictions on the repurchasing of common shares by the Company. At June 30, 2017, the actual capital conservation buffer for Town Square Bank was 13.83% compared to the capital conservation buffer requirement of 1.25%.

In assessing an institution’s capital adequacy, the OCC takes into consideration, not only these numeric factors, but qualitative factors as well, and has the authority to establish higher capital requirements for individual institutions when deemed necessary.

As of June 30, 2017, the capital of the Town Square Bank exceeded all required regulatory guidelines and Town Square Bank was categorized as well-capitalized.

The following table reflects the Bank’s current regulatory capital levels in more detail, including comparisons to the regulatory minimums at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in thousands).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. These arrangements are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016

General. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $321,000, or 46.7%, to $367,000 from net income of $688,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease in net income is attributable to a decrease in net interest income of $135,000 to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, a decrease in non-interest income of $50,000 to $718,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from $768,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and an increase in the provision for loan losses of $261,000 to $346,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from $85,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
