March 16, 2018
Dear Shareholders:
Net income for 2017 was $3.4 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, compared to $7.3 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, for 2016. Included in the 2017 net income is a $4.1 million charge, or $0.70 per diluted share, that includes $3.1 million resulting from application of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) enacted in the fourth quarter of 2017, and $1.0 million resulting from tax planning initiatives implemented at year-end 2017.
The return on average equity was 3.59% (7.90% excluding the charge from the Tax Act and tax planning initiatives) and the return on average assets was 0.25% (0.56% excluding the charge from the Tax Act and tax planning initiatives) for the current year compared to 7.97% and 0.58% for the prior year, respectively.
Excluding the impact of the Tax Act and tax planning initiatives, non-GAAP earnings increased 4% for the current year. This was mostly due to loans increasing $94 million, or 9.7%, from the prior year, and increasing $111 million, or 12.2%, on average. Since year-end 2015, loans have increased $203 million, or 23.5%. This growth was accomplished without a deterioration in credit quality as nonperforming loans to total loans improved from 1.19% at year-end 2015 to 1.00% at year-end 2017. Our loan growth was funded primarily by deposits, which increased $115 million, or 11.4%, versus the prior year and represents a stable source of funds. The continued growth in loans, which is our highest earning asset category, should have a corresponding positive impact on future earnings.
Net interest income for 2017 was $42.9 million compared to $40.3 million for 2016. On a tax equivalent basis, Hawthorn’s net interest margin for 2017 was 3.41% compared to 3.48% for 2016.
Non-interest income for 2017 was $9.0 million compared to $8.9 million for 2016. The net change from the prior year was primarily due to increases in trust income of  $0.2 million and combined real estate servicing and mortgage loan sales income of  $0.3 million offset by securities gains of  $0.6 million recognized in the prior year. Non-interest expenses increased $2.0 million, or 5.4%, over the prior year level of  $36.8 million. Salaries and benefits increased $0.9 million, or 4.5%, over 2016 due to cost of living adjustments, merit increases and increased health insurance and pension costs. Other operating expenses increased $1.1 million primarily due to costs associated with technology related expenses to improve operating efficiencies and our ability to react to new technology developments.
Non-performing loans to total loans at December 31, 2017 was 1.00% compared to 0.95% of total loans at December 31, 2016, and 1.19% at December 31, 2015. During the year ended December 31, 2017, net charge-offs were $0.8 million, or 0.08% of average loans, compared to $0.1 million, or 0.02% of average loans for 2016. We believe these levels of non-performing loans and net charge-offs over the last two years indicate the overall risk in the loan portfolio has been well managed. The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2017 was $10.9 million, or 1.02% of outstanding loans, 101.57% of non-performing loans and 180.87% of nonperforming loans when excluding accruing TDR’s.
Our capital levels at December 31, 2017 continue to exceed regulatory well capitalized thresholds with 9.33% of leverage capital and 12.93% of total risk-based capital.
Asset quality and growth trends continue moving in the right direction. We are focused on taking proactive steps to increase non-interest revenue, reduce costs and improve efficiencies. I am committed to maintaining strong asset quality; further improving earnings performance; sustaining sound and proper capital levels; and paying regular dividends.
Hawthorn’s staff, management, Board of Directors and Advisory Board members are committed to the continued growth of our strong community bank and delivering long term value to our shareholders. We appreciate your support and encourage you to continue to use Hawthorn Bank for your banking needs and request that you refer prospective customers to your bank.
Sincerely,

HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Crucial to the Company’s community banking strategy is growth in its commercial banking services, retail mortgage lending and retail banking services. Through the branch network of its subsidiary bank, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), the Company, with $1.4 billion in assets at December 31, 2017, provides a broad range of commercial and personal banking services. The Bank’s specialties include commercial banking for small and mid-sized businesses, including equipment, operating, commercial real estate, Small Business Administration (SBA) loans, and personal banking services including real estate mortgage lending, installment and consumer loans, certificates of deposit, individual retirement and other time deposit accounts, checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts. Other financial services that the Company provides include trust services that include estate planning, investment and asset management services and a comprehensive suite of cash management services. The geographic areas in which the Company provides products and services include the Missouri communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Columbia, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and the greater Kansas City metropolitan area.
The Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income derived primarily from lending and deposit taking activities. Much of the Company’s business is commercial, commercial real estate development, and residential mortgage lending. The Company’s income from mortgage brokerage activities is directly dependent on mortgage rates and the level of home purchases and refinancing activity.
The success of the Company’s growth strategy depends primarily on the ability of its banking subsidiary to generate an increasing level of loans and deposits at acceptable risk levels and on acceptable terms without significant increases in non-interest expenses relative to revenues generated. The Company’s financial performance also depends, in part, on its ability to manage various portfolios and to successfully introduce additional financial products and services by expanding new and existing customer relationships, utilizing improved technology, and enhancing customer satisfaction. Furthermore, the success of the Company’s growth strategy depends on its ability to maintain sufficient regulatory capital levels during periods in which general economic conditions are unfavorable and despite economic conditions being beyond its control.
The Company’s subsidiary bank is a full-service bank conducting a general banking business, offering its customers checking and savings accounts, debit cards, certificates of deposit, safety deposit boxes and a wide range of lending services, including commercial and industrial loans, residential real estate loans, single payment personal loans, installment loans and credit card accounts. In addition, the Bank provides trust services.
The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to the extent provided by law. The operations of the Bank are supervised and regulated by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Periodic examinations of the Bank are conducted by representatives of the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Such regulations, supervision and examinations are principally for the benefit of depositors, rather than for the benefit of shareholders. The Company is subject to supervision and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial measures in the table below include items that are non-GAAP, meaning they are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the U.S. The non-GAAP items presented are non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP basic earnings per share, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP return on average assets and non-GAAP return on average common equity. These measures include adjustments to exclude the transitional impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act) and the Company’s implementation of new tax planning initiatives, which are non-recurring and not considered indicative of underlying earnings performance. The adjustments do not include the ongoing impacts of the lower U.S. statutory rate under the Tax Act on current year earnings. The Company believes that the exclusion of these items provides a useful basis for evaluating the Company’s underlying performance, but should not be considered in isolation and is not in accordance with, or a substitute for, evaluating performance utilizing GAAP financial information. The Company uses non-GAAP measures to analyze its financial performance and to make financial comparisons to prior periods presented on a similar basis. The Company believes that providing such adjusted results allows investors to better understand the Company’s comparative operating performance for the periods presented. Non-GAAP measures are not formally defined by GAAP or codified in the federal banking regulations, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by the Company. The Company has reconciled each of these measures to a comparable GAAP measure below:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following accounting policies are considered most critical to the understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Because these estimates and judgments are based on current circumstances, they may change over time or prove to be inaccurate based on actual experiences. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of a materially different financial condition and/or results of operations could reasonably be expected. The impact and any associated risks related to the Company’s critical accounting policies on its business operations are discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, where such policies affect the reported and expected financial results.
Allowance for Loan Losses
Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses (ALL) as critical to the understanding of the Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance and the impact of any associated risks related to these policies on the Company’s business operations is provided in Note 1 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and is also discussed in the Lending and Credit Management section below.

​
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ANALYSIS
The Company has prepared all of the consolidated financial information in this report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurances that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Consolidated net income decreased $3.9 million to $3.4 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $7.3 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the return on average assets (ROA) was 0.25%, the return on average stockholders’ equity (ROE) was 3.59%, and the efficiency ratio was 74.79%.
Consolidated net income decreased $1.3 million to $7.3 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $8.6 million, or $1.46 per diluted per share, for the year ended December 31, 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the return on average assets was 0.58%, the return on average stockholders’ equity was 7.97%, and the efficiency ratio was 73.71%.
The decrease in ROA and ROE for 2017 compared to 2016 reflects a $4.1 million write-down of the Company’s net deferred tax asset (DTA) in response to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act) and additional tax planning initiatives, which was recorded as additional income tax expense during the fourth quarter of 2017. As a result, the Company’s effective tax rate for 2017 increased to 69.8% from 34% for 2016. The federal corporate income tax rate declined from 34% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 as a result to the Tax Act. The Company expects its future effective tax rate after the impact of tax exempt income to be approximately 18% to 19% compared to 34% in prior years.
Net interest income was $42.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $40.3 million and $40.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The net interest margin was 3.41% for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to 3.48% and 3.69% for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
A $1.8 million provision for loan losses was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to a $1.4 million and $250,000 provision for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in 2017 over the years ended 2016 and 2015, was primarily due to an increase in loans and using five year look-back period compared to look-back periods of four and three years in the prior years.
The Company’s net charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2017, were $799,000, or 0.08% of average loans compared to $143,000, or 0.02% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2016, and $745,000, or 0.09% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Non-performing loans totaled $10.7 million, or 1.00% of total loans, at December 31, 2017 compared to $9.2 million, or 0.95% of total loans at December 31, 2016, and $10.3 million, or 1.19% of total loans, at December 31, 2015.
Non-interest income increased $38,000, or 0.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016, and decreased $249,000, or 2.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the year ended December 31, 2015. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Income.

​
Non-interest expense increased $2.0 million, or 5.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016, and increased $313,000, or 0.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to the year ended December 31, 2015. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Expense.
Average Balance Sheets
Net interest income is the largest source of revenue resulting from the Company’s lending, investing, borrowing, and deposit gathering activities. It is affected by both changes in the level of interest rates and changes in the amounts and mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The following table presents average balance sheets, net interest income, average yields of earning assets, average costs of interest bearing liabilities, net interest spread and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis for each of the years in the three year periods ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively.

The Company generally does not retain long-term fixed rate residential mortgage loans in its portfolio. Fixed rate loans conforming to standards required by the secondary market are offered to qualified borrowers, but are not funded until the Company has a non-recourse purchase commitment from the secondary market at a predetermined price. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company sold approximately $33.8 million of loans to investors compared to $37.9 million and $51.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. At December 31, 2017, the Company was servicing approximately $285.8 million of loans sold to the secondary market compared to $294.4 million at December 31, 2016, and $312.1 million at December 31, 2015.
Risk Elements of the Loan Portfolio
Management, the senior loan committee, and internal loan review, formally review all loans in excess of certain dollar amounts (periodically established) at least annually. Currently, loans in excess of  $2.0 million in aggregate and all adversely classified credits identified by management are reviewed. In addition, all other loans are reviewed on a sample basis. The senior loan committee reviews and reports to the board of directors, on a monthly basis, past due, classified, and watch list loans in order to classify or reclassify loans as loans requiring attention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. During this review, management also determines which loans should be considered impaired. Management follows the guidance provided in the FASB’s ASC Topic 310-10-35 in identifying and measuring loan impairment. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration. Management believes, but there can be no assurance, that these procedures keep management informed of potential problem loans. Based upon these procedures, both the allowance and provision for loan losses are adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered necessary by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

Total nonperforming assets were $23.9 million at December 31, 2017 compared to $23.4 million at December 31, 2016. Nonperforming loans, defined as loans on non-accrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and TDRs totaled $10.7 million, or 1.00%, of total loans at December 31, 2017 compared to $9.2 million, or 0.95%, of total loans at December 31, 2016. Non-accrual loans included $1.7 million and $619,000 of loans classified as TDRs at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
As of December 31, 2017, approximately $4.1 million compared to $4.0 million at December 31, 2016, of loans classified as substandard, not included in the nonperforming asset table, were identified as potential problem loans having more than normal risk which raised doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms. Management believes the general allowance was sufficient to cover the risks and probable losses related to such loans at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.
17
​
Total non-accrual loans at December 31, 2017 increased $2.2 million, or 65.0%, to $5.7 million compared to $3.4 million at December 31, 2016. The increase in non-accrual loans primarily consisted of increases in commercial, financial, and agricultural loans and real estate mortgage commercial loans. The increase in non-accrual loans primarily resulted from six loan relationships that moved to non-performing status.
Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest at December 31, 2017, were $328,000 compared to $65,000 at December 31, 2016. Other real estate owned and repossessed assets at December 31, 2017 were $13.2 million compared to $14.2 million at December 31, 2016. During the year ended December 31, 2017, $374,000 of nonaccrual loans, net of charge-offs taken, moved to other real estate owned and repossessed assets compared to $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.

​
At December 31, 2017, loans classified as TDRs totaled $6.4 million, with $577,000 of specific reserves, of which $1.7 million were classified as nonperforming TDRs and $4.7 million were classified as performing TDRs. This is compared to $6.3 million of loans classified as TDRs, with $410,000 of specific reserves, of which $619,000 were classified as nonperforming TDRs and $5.7 million were classified as performing TDRs at December 31, 2016. Both performing and nonperforming TDRs are considered impaired loans. When an individual loan is determined to be a TDR, the amount of impairment is based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral less applicable selling costs. The net increase in total TDRs from December 31, 2016 to December 31, 2017 was primarily due to $1.1 million of new loans designated as TDRs, partially offset by approximately $881,000 of payments received, and a $123,000 commercial loan that was charged off during the year ended December 31, 2017.

​
The specific reserve component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals and/or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2017, $1.3 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $10.4 million compared to $1.1 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $9.1 million at December 31, 2016. Management determined that $2.4 million, or 23%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2017 compared to $2.1 million, or 23%, at December 31, 2016 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate cash flow ability.
The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by applying loss rates to pools of loans by asset type. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type. Beginning in the first quarter of 2016, the Company began to lengthen its look-back period with the intent to increase such period from three to five years by December 31, 2017. The Company believes that the five-year look-back period, which is consistent with the Company’s practices prior to the start of the economic recession in 2008, provides a representative historical loss period in the current economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as the starting point to determine loss rates for measurement purposes. The historical loan loss rates are multiplied by loss emergence periods (LEP) which represent the estimated time period between a borrower first experiencing financial difficulty and the recognition of a loss.
19
​
The Company’s methodology includes qualitative risk factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available and to address other limitations in the quantitative component that is based on historical loss rates. Such risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate, and are adjusted to reflect changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, the nature, volume and terms of loans in the portfolio, including changes in volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans, loan concentrations, assessment of trends in collateral values, assessment of changes in the quality of the Company’s internal loan review department, and changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collections, charge-off and recovery practices.
The specific and general reserve allocations represent management’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.
Provision
A $1.8 million provision was required for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to a $1.4 million provision for the year ended December 31, 2016, and a $250,000 provision for the year ended December 31, 2015. The increase was primarily due to using a five year look-back period compared to four and three years in the prior years, as discussed above, in addition to an increase in loans.

Net Loan Charge-offs
The Company’s net charge-offs were $799,000, or 0.08% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to net charge-offs of  $143,000, or 0.02% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2016, and $745,000, or 0.09% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2015. Although loan charge-offs decreased during the year ended 2017 over the year 2016, loan recoveries also
20
​
decreased from the prior year. Two commercial loan relationships were charged-off during the fourth quarter of 2017 compared to a significant commercial real estate construction loan recovery received from the sale of collateral during the second quarter 2016, primarily resulted in the increase in net charge-offs year over year.
Investment Portfolio
The Company’s investment portfolio consists of available-for-sale securities, which are carried at amortized cost, while debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at estimated market value. Unrealized holding gains and losses from available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported, net of applicable taxes, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized.
The Company does not engage in trading activities and accordingly does not have any debt or equity securities classified as trading securities. Historically the Company’s practice had been to purchase and hold debt instruments until maturity unless special circumstances exist. However, since the investment portfolio’s major function is to provide liquidity and to balance the Company’s interest rate sensitivity position, all debt securities are classified as available-for-sale.
At December 31, 2017, the investment portfolio classified as available-for-sale represented 15.9% of total consolidated assets. Future levels of investment securities can be expected to vary depending upon liquidity and interest sensitivity needs as well as other factors.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Management
The role of liquidity management is to ensure funds are available to meet depositors’ withdrawal and borrowers’ credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity to meet the demands is provided by maturing assets, short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally depositors. Due to the nature of services offered by the Company, management prefers to focus on transaction accounts and full service relationships with customers.
The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), primarily made up of senior management, has direct oversight responsibility for the Company’s liquidity position and profile. A combination of daily, weekly, and monthly reports provided to management detail the following: internal liquidity metrics, composition and level of the liquid asset portfolio, timing differences in short-term cash flow obligations, available pricing and market access to the financial markets for capital, and exposure to contingent draws on the Company’s liquidity.
The Company has a number of sources of funds to meet liquidity needs on a daily basis. The Company’s most liquid assets are comprised of available for sale investment securities, federal funds sold, and excess reserves held at the Federal Reserve Bank.

Federal funds sold and resale agreements normally have overnight maturities and are used for general daily liquidity purposes. The fair value of the available for sale investment portfolio was $226.5 million at December 31, 2017 and included an unrealized net loss of  $3.2 million. The portfolio includes projected maturities and mortgage-backed securities pay-downs of approximately $8.1 million over the next twelve months, which offer resources to meet either new loan demand or reductions in the Company’s deposit base.

​
The Company pledges portions of its investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, federal funds purchase lines, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank, and for other purposes required by law. The Company’s unpledged securities in the available for sale portfolio totaled approximately $44.8 million and $46.9 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Liquidity is available from the Company’s base of core customer deposits, defined as demand, interest checking, savings, money market deposit accounts, and time deposits less than $250,000, less all brokered deposits under $250,000. At December 31, 2017, such deposits totaled $1.0 billion and represented 89.9% of the Company’s total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile and are often tied to other products of the Company through long lasting relationships. Time deposits and certificates of deposit of $250,000 and over totaled $113.4 million at December 31, 2017. These accounts are normally considered more volatile and higher costing representing 10.1% of total deposits at December 31, 2017.

The total amount of certificates of deposit of  $250,000 and greater at December 31, 2017 and 2017 were $63.2 million and $72.3 million, respectively. The Company had brokered deposits totaling $48.5 million and $36.4 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Other components of liquidity are the level of borrowings from third party sources and the availability of future credit. The Company’s outside borrowings are comprised of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and subordinated notes. Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained mainly from upstream correspondent banks with which the Company maintains approved credit lines. As of December 31, 2017, under agreements with these unaffiliated banks, the Bank may borrow up to $40.0 million in federal funds on an unsecured basis and $17.2 million on a secured basis. There were no federal funds purchased outstanding at December 31, 2017. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are generally borrowed overnight and are secured by a portion of the Company’s investment portfolio. At December 31, 2017, there was $27.6 million in repurchase agreements. The Company may periodically borrow additional short-term funds from the Federal Reserve Bank through the discount window; although no such borrowings were outstanding at December 31, 2017.

At December 31, 2017, loans of  $476.3 million were pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank as collateral for borrowings and letters of credit. At December 31, 2017, investments with a market value of $19.7 million were pledged to secure federal funds purchase lines and borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank.
Sources and Uses of Funds
Cash and cash equivalents were $62.9 million at December 31, 2017 compared to $26.0 million at December 31, 2016. The $36.9 million increase resulted from changes in the various cash flows produced by operating, investing, and financing activities of the Company, as shown in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2017. Cash flow provided from operating activities consists mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Operating activities provided cash flow of  $12.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Investing activities consisting mainly of purchases, sales and maturities of available for sale securities, and changes in the level of the loan portfolio, used total cash of  $112.9 million. The cash outflow primarily consisted of  $64.6 million purchases of investment securities, $95.4 million increase in the loan portfolio, and $2.5 million purchases of certificates of deposit in other banks, partially offset by $39.2 million in proceeds from investment maturities, calls, and pay-downs, $11.7 million in proceeds from sales of investment securities, and $1.1 million in proceeds received from sales of other real estate owned and repossessed assets.
24
​
Financing activities provided cash of  $137.3 million, resulting primarily from a $28.5 million net advance from Federal Home Loan Bank, $115.7 million increase in interest-bearing transaction accounts, and $9.4 million increase in demand deposits, partially offset by a $3.9 million decrease in federal funds purchased and securities sold, and $10.0 million decrease in time deposits. Future short-term liquidity needs arising from daily operations are not expected to vary significantly during 2018.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into certain forms of off-balance-sheet transactions, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. These transactions are managed through the Company’s various risk management processes. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance-sheet transactions in its evaluation of the Company’s liquidity. The Company had $314.0 million in unused loan commitments and standby letters of credit as of December 31, 2017. Although the Company’s current liquidity resources are adequate to fund this commitment level, the nature of these commitments is such that the likelihood of such a funding demand is very low.
The Company is a legal entity, separate and distinct from the Bank, which must provide its own liquidity to meet its operating needs. The Company’s ongoing liquidity needs primarily include funding its operating expenses and paying cash dividends to its shareholders. The Company paid cash dividends to its common shareholders totaling approximately $1.5 million and $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. A large portion of the Company’s liquidity is obtained from the Bank in the form of dividends. The Bank declared and paid $2.6 million and $0 million in dividends to the Company during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $1.4 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
Capital Management
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state 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 consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of the Company and the Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.
In July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued final rules to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for the Company began on January 1, 2015. The Federal Reserve System’s (FRB) capital adequacy guidelines require that bank holding companies maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 4.5% of its risk-weighted assets, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 6% of its risk-weighted assets and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 8% of its risk-weighted assets. In addition, bank holding companies generally are required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4%.
In addition, the final rules establish a common equity tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets applicable to all banking organizations. Institutions that do not maintain the required capital buffer will become subject to progressively more stringent limitations on the percentage of earnings that can be paid out in dividends or used for stock repurchases and on the payment of discretionary bonuses to senior executive management. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in over four years beginning in 2016. The capital conservation buffer requirement effectively raises the minimum required risk-based capital ratios to 7% Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, 8.5% Tier 1 Capital and 10.5% Total Capital on a fully phased-in basis.
25
​
Under the Basel III requirements, at December 31, 2017, the Company met all capital adequacy requirements and had regulatory capital ratios in excess of the levels established for well-capitalized institutions, as shown in the following table as of December 31, for the years indicated:

On August 8, 2017 the Board authorized the repurchase of an additional $1.5 million market value of the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had repurchased a total of 87,041 shares of common stock pursuant to the plan at an average price of  $17.63 per share, including 43,148 shares of common stock repurchased pursuant to the plan during the year ended December 31, 2017 at an average price of  $20.36 per share. At December 31, 2017, approximately $1.9 million remained available for the purchase of shares under the plan.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Sensitivity
Market risk arises from exposure to changes in interest rates and other relevant market rate or price risk. The Company faces market risk in the form of interest rate risk through transactions other than trading activities. The Company uses financial modeling techniques to measure interest rate risk. These techniques measure the sensitivity of future earnings due to changing interest rate environments. Guidelines established by the Company’s Asset/Liability Committee and approved by the board of directors are used to monitor exposure of earnings at risk. General interest rate movements are used to develop sensitivity as the Company feels it has no primary exposure to specific points on the yield curve. At December 31, 2017, the Company’s rate shock scenario models indicated that annual net interest income could change by as much as -1.54% or -24.25% should interest rates rise or fall, respectively, 400 basis points from their current level over a one year period. These levels of interest rate risk are within limits set by the board in the Company’s Funds Management, Investment Asset Liability Policy and Management believes this is an acceptable level of interest rate risk. However, there are no assurances that the change will not be more or less than this estimate.

The following table represents estimated interest rate sensitivity and periodic and cumulative gap positions calculated as of December 31, 2017. Significant assumptions used for this table included: loans will repay at historic repayment rates; certain interest-bearing demand accounts are interest sensitive due to immediate repricing, and fixed maturity deposits will not be withdrawn prior to maturity. A significant variance in actual results from one or more of these assumptions could materially affect the results reflected in the table.

Effects of Inflation
The effects of inflation on financial institutions are different from the effects on other commercial enterprises since financial institutions make few significant capital or inventory expenditures, which are directly affected by changing prices. Because bank assets and liabilities are virtually all monetary in nature, inflation does not affect a financial institution as much as do changes in interest rates. The general level of inflation does underlie the general level of most interest rates, but interest rates do not increase at the rate of inflation as do prices of goods and services. Rather, interest rates react more to changes in the expected rate of inflation and to changes in monetary and fiscal policy.
Inflation does have an impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry, often resulting in a need to increase capital at higher than normal rates to maintain an appropriate capital to asset ratio. In the opinion of management, inflation did not have a significant effect on the Company’s operations for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
Revenue from Contracts with Customers The FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), in May 2014. The ASU supersedes revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that
28
​
reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance identifies specific steps that entities should apply in order to achieve this principle. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2018 and must be applied retrospectively.
In March 2016, the FASB began to issue targeted guidance to clarify specific implementation issues of ASU 2014-09. The FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which provides guidance on determining an entity’s role in providing goods and services as a principal versus an agent, and whether it controls each specified good or service before it is transferred to the customer. In April 2016, ASU 2016-10, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, was issued which clarifies the guidance related to whether goods or services are distinct within the contract and therefore are a performance obligation, and clarifies the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for licenses of intellectual property. The effective date and transition requirements of these ASUs are the same as those of ASU 2014-09.
In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The amendments in this update address narrow-scope improvements to the accounting guidance on collectability, noncash consideration, and completed contracts at transition. Additionally, the amendments in this Update provide a practical expedient for contract modifications at transition and an accounting policy election related to the presentation of sales taxes and other similar taxes collected from customers. The amendments also included a rescission issued in May 2016, ASU 2016-11, Revenue Recognition and Derivatives and Hedging: Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of ASU 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 Emerging Task Force meeting, and relates to revenue and expense recognition for freight services in process, accounting for shipping and handling fees and costs, and accounting for consideration given by a vendor to a customer.
The FASB continues to issue additional ASU’s clarifying the revenue recognition guidance for certain implementation issues. Under the ASU 2014-09 and related amendments, the guidance is effective for periods beginning January 1, 2018 and must be applied retroactively, whether through a full restatement of prior periods or a cumulative adjustment upon adoption of the ASU. The Company evaluated certain non-interest income financial statement line items that contain revenue streams that are in the scope of this update such as service charges and fees, trust department revenue, debit card income, ATM surcharge income, and real-estate sales. The Company adopted the ASU in the first quarter of 2018 and no material changes to the timing of revenue recognition were identified. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this accounting guidance, including any additional guidance issued, during the completion of this internal assessment, and expects to expand its qualitative and quantitative disclosures of revenue recognition upon adoption.
Financial Instruments The FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, in January 2016. The amendments require all equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income, other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in the consolidation of the investee. Additionally, these amendments require presentation in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk for those liabilities measured at fair value. The amendments also require use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. These amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2018. The adoption of the ASU’s did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The revised accounting guidance will remove all recognition thresholds and will require a company to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that the company expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. It also amends the credit loss measurement guidance for available-for-sale debt securities and beneficial interests in securitized financial assets. This new accounting guidance will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. While the Company generally expects to recognize a one-time cumulative effect
29
​
adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, the Company has not determined the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company has formed a committee and is continuing to evaluate the impact of the ASU’s adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, in order to increase transparency and comparability by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The ASU primarily affects lessee accounting, which requires the lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a liability to make lease payments for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, an election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities is permitted. The ASU also provides additional guidance as to the definition of a lease, identification of lease components, and sale and leaseback transactions. The amendments in the ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2019. The Company continues to evaluate the provision of the new lease standard, but due to the small number of lease agreements, the impact of the adoption is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-01, Leases: Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. This update provides an optional practical expedient that affects entities with land easements that existed or expired before an entity’s adoption of Topic 842, provided that the entity does not account for those land easements as leases under Topic 840. The amendments in this ASU affect the amendments in ASU 2016-02, which are not yet effective but may be early adopted. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in ASU 2016-02. The Company will adopt this guidance as required, in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-02 described above, however this update is not expected to materially alter the implementation of ASU 2016-02, or to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Liabilities The FASB issued ASU 2016-04, Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Store-Value Products, in March 2016, in order to address current and potential future diversity in practice related to the derecognition of a prepaid store-value product liability. Such products include prepaid gift cards issued on a specific payment network and redeemable at network-accepting merchant locations, prepaid telecommunication cards, and traveler’s checks. The amendments require that the portion of the dollar value of prepaid stored-value products that is ultimately unredeemed (that is, the breakage) be accounted for consistent with the breakage guidance for stored-value product transactions provided in ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. These amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2018. The adoption of the ASU’s did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Statement of Cash Flows The FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, in August 2016, in order to address concerns regarding diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. In particular, this ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues in an effort to reduce this diversity in practice: (1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; (2) settlement of zero-coupon bonds; (3) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; (4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; (5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; (6) distributions received from equity method investees; (7) beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and (8) separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the ASU’s adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, in November 2016. The ASU addresses the current diversity in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The ASU requires that amounts described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning and end of period amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. Disclosures are to be provided
30
​
on the nature of restrictions on cash and cash equivalents. When presented in more than one line item within the statement of financial position, the entity shall disclose the amounts, disaggregated by line item, of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents reported within the statement of financial position. The adoption of the ASU’s did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Pension The FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost in March 2017. Under the new guidance, employers will present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item (e.g., Salaries and Benefits) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. In addition, only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in assets. Employers will present the other components separately (e.g., Other Noninterest Expense) from the line item that includes the service cost. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, however, the Company has decided not to early adopt. Employers will apply the guidance on the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement retrospectively. The guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost in assets to the service cost component will be applied prospectively. The Company expects to utilize the ASU’s practical expedient allowing entities to estimate amounts for comparative periods using the information previously disclosed in their pension and other postretirement benefit plan footnote. The ASU is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Callable Debt Securities The FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities in March 2017. This ASU shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain purchased callable debt securities to the earliest call date. Today, entities generally amortize the premium over the contractual life of the security. The new guidance does not change the accounting for purchased callable debt securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The guidance calls for a modified retrospective transition approach under which a cumulative-effect adjustment will be made to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2017-08 to determine the potential impact the new standard will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Stock Compensation The FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting in May 2017. Under the new guidance an entity may change the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award for many different reasons, and the nature and effect of the change can vary significantly. Modification is currently defined as “a change in any of the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award.” The amendments in this ASU provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in accordance with Topic 718. The amendments will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The ASU is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Derivatives and Hedging The FASB issued guidance within ASU 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815) in August 2017. The amendments in ASU 2017-12 to Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, is intended to more closely align hedge accounting with companies’ risk management strategies, simplify the application of hedge accounting, and increase transparency as to the scope and results of hedging programs. The guidance also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. Under the new guidance, public companies will have until the end of the first quarter in which a hedge is designated to perform an initial assessment of a hedge’s effectiveness. After initial qualification, the new guidance permits a qualitative effectiveness assessment for certain hedges instead of a quantitative test if the company can reasonably support an expectation of high effectiveness throughout the term of the hedge. Additional disclosures include cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges and the effect of hedging on individual income statement line items. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim period within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the Update. The ASU is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015
(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. (the Company) through its subsidiary, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), provides a broad range of banking services to individual and corporate customers located within the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Columbia, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and the greater Kansas City metropolitan area. The Company is subject to competition from other financial and nonfinancial institutions providing financial products. Additionally, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the regulations of certain regulatory agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory agencies.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements includes all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make those statements not misleading. Management is required to make estimates and assumptions, including the determination of the allowance for loan losses, real estate acquired in connection with foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, and fair values of investment securities available-for-sale that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s management has evaluated and did not identify any subsequent events or transactions requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
The significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are summarized below:
Principles of Consolidation
In December of 2008 and March of 2010, the Company formed Hawthorn Real Estate, LLC, and Real Estate Holdings of Missouri, LLC, respectively (the Real Estate Companies); both are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), and the Real Estate Companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Loans
Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or to maturity are held for investment at their stated unpaid principal balance amount less unearned income and the allowance for loan losses. Income on loans is accrued on a simple-interest basis. Loan origination fees and certain direct costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment to yield.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans originated, primarily one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, with the intent to be sold in the secondary market are classified as held for sale are accounted for at the lower of adjusted cost or fair value. Adjusted cost reflects the funded loan amount and any loan origination costs and fees. In order to manage the risk associated with such activities, the Company upon locking in an interest rate with the borrower enters into an agreement to sell such loans in the secondary market. Loans held for sale are typically sold with servicing rights retained and without recourse except for normal and customary representation and warranty provisions. Mortgage loans held for sale were $383,000 at December 31, 2017 compared to $162,000 loans held for sale at December 31, 2016.
Impaired Loans
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Included in

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

impaired loans are all non-accrual loans and loans whose terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Impaired loans are individually evaluated for impairment based on fair values of the underlying collateral, obtained through independent appraisals or internal valuations for a collateral dependent loan or by discounting the total expected future cash flows.
Non-Accrual Loans
Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Loans that are contractually 90 days past due as to principal and/or interest payments are generally placed on non-accrual, unless they are both well-secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis. A loan remains on nonaccrual status until the loan is current as to payment of both principal and interest and/or the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay and remain current.
Restructured Loans
A loan is accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) if the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrowers’ financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. A TDR typically involves (1) modification of terms such as a reduction of the stated interest rate, loan principal, accrued interest, or an extended maturity date (2) a loan renewal at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for a new loan with similar risk, or (3) debt that was not reaffirmed in bankruptcy. Nonperforming TDRs are returned to performing status once the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the terms of the restructured note through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six months. The Company includes all performing and non-performing TDRs in the impaired and non-performing asset totals. The Company measures the impairment loss of a TDR in the same manner as described below. TDRs which are performing under their contractual terms continue to accrue interest which is recognized in current earnings.
Allowance for Loan Losses
Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of the Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. The fair value of impaired loans deemed collateral dependent, for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, can be subject to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of the collateral and other factors over time. Such volatility can have an impact on the financial performance of the Company.
Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. When loans become 90 days past due, they are generally placed on nonaccrual status or charged off unless extenuating circumstances justify leaving the loan on accrual basis. When loans reach 120 days past due and there is little likelihood of repayment, the uncollectible portion of the loans are charged off. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired.
The specific reserve component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals and/or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded.

The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by applying loss rates to pools of loans by asset type. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type. Beginning in the first quarter of 2016, the Company began to lengthen its look-back period with the intent to increase such period from three to five years over the next two years. The Company believes that the five-year look-back period, which is consistent with the Company’s practices prior to the start of the economic recession in 2008, provides a representative historical loss period in the current economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as the starting point to determine loss rates for measurement purposes. The historical loan loss rates are multiplied by loss emergence periods (LEP) which represent the estimated time period between a borrower first experiencing financial difficulty and the recognition of a loss.
The Company’s methodology includes qualitative risk factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available and to address other limitations in the quantitative component that is based on historical loss rates. Such risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate, and are adjusted to reflect changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, the nature, volume and terms of loans in the portfolio, including changes in volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans, loan concentrations, assessment of trends in collateral values, assessment of changes in the quality of the Company’s internal loan review department, and changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collections, charge-off and recovery practices.
Certificates of Deposit in other banks
Certificates of deposit are investments made by the Company with other financial institutions that are carried at cost which approximate fair values. At December 31, 2017 the weighted average maturity of the interest bearing deposits is 4.20 years. Balances over $250,000 in those institutions are not insured by the FDIC and therefore pose a potential risk in the event the institution were to fail. As of December 31, 2017 there were no uninsured deposits, and as of December 31, 2016, there was one certificate of deposit with a balance of  $1.0 million.
Investment in Debt and Equity Securities
The Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Changes in fair value, excluding certain losses associated with other-than-temporary impairment, are reported in other comprehensive income, net of taxes, a component of stockholders’ equity. Securities are periodically evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with guidance provided in the FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. For those securities with other-than-temporary impairment, the entire loss in fair value is required to be recognized in current earnings if the Company intends to sell the securities or believes it more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery. If neither condition is met, but the Company does not expect to recover the amortized cost basis, the Company determines whether a credit loss has occurred, which is then recognized in current earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over the lives of the respective securities, with consideration of historical and estimated prepayment rates for mortgage-backed securities, as an adjustment to yield. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in earnings based on the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.

Capital Stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank
The Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System administered by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, is required to maintain an investment in the capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) in an amount equal to 12 basis points of the Bank’s year-end total assets plus 4.00% of advances from the FHLB to the Bank. These investments are recorded at cost, which represents redemption value.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation applicable to buildings and improvements and furniture and equipment is charged to expense using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Such lives are estimated to be 5 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 15 years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
The Company originates and sells residential mortgage loans in the secondary market and typically retains the right to service the loans sold. Servicing involves the collection of payments from individual borrowers and the distribution of those payments to the investors or master servicer. Upon a sale of mortgage loans for which servicing rights are retained, the retained mortgage servicing rights asset is capitalized at the fair value of future net cash flows expected to be realized for performing servicing activities.
Mortgage servicing rights are carried at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet with changes in the fair value recognized in earnings. As most servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, the Company determines the fair value of mortgage servicing rights by estimating the fair value of the future cash flows associated with the mortgage loans being serviced. Key assumptions used in measuring the fair value of mortgage servicing rights include, but are not limited to, prepayment speeds, discount rates, delinquencies, ancillary income, and cost to service. These assumptions are validated on a periodic basis. The fair value is validated on a quarterly basis with an independent third party valuation specialist firm.
In addition to the changes in fair value of the mortgage servicing rights, the Company also recorded loan servicing fee income as part of real estate servicing fees, net in the statement of income. Loan servicing fee income represents revenue earned for servicing mortgage loans. The servicing fees are based on contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and recognized as revenue as the related mortgage payments are collected. Corresponding loan servicing costs are charged to expense as incurred.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets
Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are

recorded as other real estate foreclosure expense. The Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned and repossessed assets on an asset-by-asset basis. The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the cost of the asset.
Pension Plan
The Company provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees. The benefits are based on age, years of service and the level of compensation during the employees highest ten years of compensation before retirement. Net periodic costs are recognized as employees render the services necessary to earn the retirement benefits. The Company records annual amounts relating to its pension plan based on calculations that incorporate various actuarial and other assumptions including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases, and turnover rates. The Company reviews its assumptions on an annual basis and may make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is appropriate to do so. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under its plan are reasonable based on its experience and market conditions.
The Company follows authoritative guidance included in the FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Plans under the subtopic Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. ASC Topic 715 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its consolidated balance sheet and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. This guidance also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its fiscal year-end, with limited exceptions. Additional disclosures are required to provide users with an understanding of how investment allocation decisions are made, major categories of plan assets, and fair value measurement of plan assets as defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset/liability method by recognizing the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are provided as temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated financial statements at the enacted tax rate expected to be applied in the period the deferred tax item is expected to be realized. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the expected amount most likely to be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of a sufficient level of future taxable income and recoverable taxes paid in prior years.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act) was enacted on December 22, 2017 and ASC 740 required the Company to reflect the changes associated with the Tax Act’s provisions in the fourth quarter of 2017. The Tax Act is complex and has extensive implications for the Company’s federal taxes. The federal corporate income tax rate declined from 34% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 as a result to the Tax Act. The Company expects its future effective tax rate after the impact of tax exempt income to be approximately 18% to 19% compared to 34% in prior years.
The Tax Act resulted in stranded income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive loss, for which new accounting guidance was issued under ASU 2018-02. This guidance allowed the Company to early adopt and retrospectively apply the reclassification of stranded income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings. As of December 31, 2017, the Company reclassified $1.2 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings resulting from the Tax Act.

A tax position is initially recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions are initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. Penalties and interest incurred under the applicable tax law are classified as income tax expense. The Company has not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015.
Trust Department
Property held by the Bank in a fiduciary or agency capacity for customers is not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, since such items are not assets of the Company. Trust department income is recognized on the accrual basis.
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term federal funds sold and securities sold or purchased under agreements to resell, overnight interest earning deposits with banks, cash, and due from banks.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company’s stock-based employee compensation plan (the plan) is described in Note 12, Stock Compensation. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, the Company measures the cost of the stock-based compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the award, recognizing the cost over the requisite service period. The fair value of an award is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, on January 1, 2017 and elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur. Prior to the adoption of the ASU, the expense was recognized based on an estimation of the number of awards for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered, and is included in salaries and employee benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The plan expired on February 28, 2010, except as to outstanding options under the plan, and no further options may be granted pursuant to the plan. All options were fully expensed as of September 30, 2017.
Treasury Stock
The purchase of the Company’s common stock is recorded at cost. Purchases of the stock are made both in the open market and through negotiated private purchases based on market prices. At the date of subsequent reissue, the treasury stock account is reduced by the cost associated with such stock on a first-in-first-out basis.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The following represents significant new accounting principles adopted in 2017:
Stock Compensation The FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, in March 2016, in order to reduce complexity in this area and improve the usefulness of information provided to users. Amendments which will affect public companies include the recognition of excess tax benefits and deficiencies in income tax expense or benefit in the income statement, guidance as to the classification of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows, an election to account for award forfeitures as they occur, and the ability to withhold taxes up to the maximum statutory rate in the applicable jurisdictions without triggering liability classification of the award. The Company adopted the ASU on January 1, 2017 and elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur. As allowed by the ASU, the Company’s adoption was prospective, therefore prior periods have not been adjusted. The adoption of the ASU could result in increased volatility to reported income tax expense related to excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies for employee share-based transactions, however, the actual amounts recognized in income tax expense will be dependent on the amount of employee share-based transactions and the stock price at the time of vesting or exercise. The adoption of the ASU did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Comprehensive Income The FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income Topic 220: Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in February 2018. The guidance allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amendments are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning December 15, 2018, but early adoption is permitted in certain circumstances. The Company early adopted the ASU effective December 31, 2017 and recorded a reclassification which decreased accumulated other comprehensive income and increased retained earnings by $1.2 million. As these are both categories within equity, total equity was unchanged.

Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2016, the Company began to lengthen its look-back period with the intent to increase such period from three to five years by December 31, 2017. The Company believes that the five-year look-back period, which is consistent with the Company’s practices prior to the start of the economic recession in 2008, provides a representative historical loss period in the current economic environment. As of December 31, 2017, the Company utilized a five-year look-back period.
The following table provides the balance in the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related loan balance by impairment methodology.

Impaired loans
Loans evaluated under ASC 310-10-35 include loans which are individually evaluated for impairment. All other loans are collectively evaluated for impairment under ASC 450-20. Impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment totaled $10.4 million and $9.1 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and loans which have been classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs).
The net carrying value of impaired loans is based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, $7.0 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value less estimated selling costs of the loan’s collateral. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2017, $1.3 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling $10.4 million compared to $1.1 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $9.1 million at December 31, 2016. Management determined that $2.4 million, or 23%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2017 compared to $2.1 million, or 23%, at December 31, 2016 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate cash flow ability.

The recorded investment varies from the unpaid principal balance primarily due to partial charge-offs taken resulting from current appraisals received. The amount recognized as interest income on impaired loans continuing to accrue interest, primarily related to troubled debt restructurings, was $256,000 and $285,000, for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired loans is calculated on a monthly basis during the years reported.
Delinquent and Non-Accrual Loans
The delinquency status of loans is determined based on the contractual terms of the notes. Borrowers are generally classified as delinquent once payments become 30 days or more past due. The Company’s policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest income on any loan when, in the opinion of management, the ultimate collectability of interest or principal is no longer probable. In general, loans are placed on non-accrual when they become 90 days or more past due. However, management considers many factors before placing a loan on non-accrual, including the delinquency status of the loan, the overall financial condition of the borrower, the progress of management’s collection efforts and the value of the underlying collateral. Non-accrual loans are returned to accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the financial condition of the borrower indicates that the timely collectability of interest and principal is probable and the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the terms of the note through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six months.

Credit Quality
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based upon an internal rating system reflecting management’s risk assessment. Loans are placed on watch status when one or more weaknesses that may result in the deterioration of the repayment exits or the Company’s credit position at some future date. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified may have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. Such loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. A loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties that lead to the restructuring of a loan, and the Company grants concessions to the borrower in the restructuring that it would not otherwise consider. Loans classified as TDRs which are accruing interest are classified as performing TDRs. Loans classified as TDRs which are not accruing interest are classified as nonperforming TDRs and are included with all other nonaccrual loans for presentation purposes. It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the collection of interest or principal is doubtful. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when (1) deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower exists for which payment of full principal and interest is not expected, or (2) payment of principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
At December 31, 2017, loans classified as TDRs totaled $6.4 million, of which $1.7 million were classified as nonperforming TDRs and included in non-accrual loans and $4.7 million were classified as performing TDRs. At December 31, 2016, loans classified as TDRs totaled $6.3 million, of which $619,000 were classified as nonperforming TDRs and included in non-accrual loans and $5.7 million were classified as performing TDRs. Both performing and nonperforming TDRs are considered impaired loans. When an individual loan is determined to be a TDR, the amount of impairment is based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral less applicable selling costs. Accordingly, specific reserves of  $577,000 and $410,000 related to TDRs were allocated to the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
The following table summarizes loans that were modified as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

The amounts reported post-modification are inclusive of all partial pay-downs and charge-offs, and no portion of the debt was forgiven. Loans modified as a TDR that were fully paid down, charged-off, or foreclosed upon during the period ended are not reported.
​
The Company’s portfolio of loans classified as TDRs include concessions for the borrower due to deteriorated financial condition such as interest rates below the current market rate, deferring principal payments, and extending maturity dates. During the year ended December 31, 2017, six loans meeting the TDR criteria were modified compared to seven loans during the year ended December 31, 2016.
Upon default, which is considered to be 90 days or more past due under the modified terms, the TDR is measured for impairment. The impairment amount is either charged off as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses, provided for as a specific reserve within the allowance for loan losses, or in the process of

There was one TDR that defaulted and was charged off during the year ended December 31, 2017, within twelve months of its modification date, compared to three TDRs that defaulted during the year ended December 31, 2016. During 2016, two of the loans were charged off and one received an insurance settlement during the first quarter of 2017.

Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, these investments were not considered other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. In the absence of changes in credit quality of these investments, the fair value is expected to recover on all debt securities as they approach their maturity date, or re-pricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. In addition, the Company does not have the intent to sell these investments over the period of recovery, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell such investment securities.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) and has access to term financing from the FHLB. These borrowings, which are all fixed rate, are secured under a blanket agreement which assigns all investment in FHLB stock, as well as qualifying first mortgage loans as collateral to secure amounts borrowed by the Bank. The outstanding balance of  $121.4 million includes $5.0 million, which the FHLB may call for early payment within the next year. Based upon the collateral pledged to the FHLB at December 31, 2017, the Bank could borrow up to an additional $102.7 million under the agreement.
On March 17, 2005, Exchange Statutory Trust II, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company, issued $23.0 million of 30-year floating rate Trust Preferred Securities (TPS) to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to a three-month LIBOR rate plus 1.83% and reprices quarterly (3.43% at December 31, 2017). The TPS can be prepaid without penalty at any time after five years from the issuance date.
The TPS represent preferred interests in the trust. The Company invested approximately $712,000 in common interests in the trust and the purchaser in the private placement purchased $23.0 million in preferred interests. The proceeds were used by the trust to purchase from the Company its 30-year deeply subordinated debentures whose terms mirror those stated above for the TPS. The debentures are guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a subordinated guarantee. Distributions on the TPS are payable quarterly on March 17, June 17, September 17, and December 17 of each year that the TPS are outstanding. The trustee for the TPS holders is U.S. Bank, N.A. The trustee does not have the power to take enforcement action in the event of a default under the TPS for five years from the date of default. In the event of default, however, the Company would be precluded from paying dividends until the default is cured.
On March 17, 2004, Exchange Statutory Trust I, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company issued $25.0 million of floating rate TPS to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.70% and reprices quarterly (4.30% at December 31, 2017). The TPS are fully, irrevocably, and unconditionally guaranteed on a subordinated basis by the Company. The proceeds of the TPS were invested in junior subordinated debentures of the Company. Distributions on the TPS are payable quarterly on March 17, June 17, September 17, and December 17 of each year that the TPS are outstanding. The TPS mature on March 17, 2034. That maturity date may be shortened if certain conditions are met.
The Exchange Statutory Trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company does not report the securities issued by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities, and instead reports the subordinated notes issued by the Company and held by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities. The amount of the subordinated notes as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $49.5 million, respectively. The Company has recorded the investments in the common securities issued by the Exchange Statutory Trusts aggregating $1.5 million, and the corresponding obligations under the subordinated notes, as well as the interest income and interest expense on such investments and obligations in its consolidated financial statements.

Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 69.8% for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to 34.0% and 34.8% for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2017 over 2016 and 2015 reflects a $4.1 million write-down of the Company’s net deferred tax asset (DTA) in response to the enactment of the Tax Act and other planning initiatives by the Company. The write-down was recorded as additional income tax expense during the fourth quarter of 2017. The federal corporate income tax rate declined from 34% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 as a result to the Tax Act. The Company expects its future effective tax rate after the impact of tax exempt income to be approximately 18% to 19% compared to 34% in prior years. Additionally, as of December 31, 2017, the Company early adopted ASU 2018-02 Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and elected to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings the stranded income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from the Tax Act and additional tax planning initiatives as mentioned above.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income of the appropriate character during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning initiatives in making this assessment. With the exception of certain capital losses generated during 2013 and 2014, it is management’s opinion that the Company will more likely than not realize the benefits of these temporary differences as of December 31, 2017 and, therefore, established a valuation reserve against the Company’s capital loss carry forward. Management arrived at this conclusion based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible. As indicated above, the Company generated approximately $219,000 of capital losses during 2013 and 2014 as a result of disposing of certain limited partnership interests. The capital losses will expire between 2018 and 2019, and it is management’s opinion that the Company will not more likely than not generate the capital gain income necessary to utilize the capital loss carry forwards before the capital losses expire. As such, the Company has established a $46,000 valuation reserve against its capital loss carry forward deferred tax asset.
The Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which addresses the accounting for uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 the Company did not have any uncertain tax provisions.

The Company’s profit-sharing plan includes a matching 401(k) portion, in which the Company matches the first 3% of eligible employee contributions. The Company made annual contributions in an amount up to 6% of income before income taxes and before contributions to the profit-sharing and pension plans for all participants, limited to the maximum amount deductible for federal income tax purposes, for each of the periods shown. In addition, employees were able to make additional tax-deferred contributions.
Pension
The Company provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees. An employer is required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its balance sheet and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Under the Company’s funding policy for the defined benefit pension plan, contributions are made to a trust as necessary to provide for current service and for any unfunded accrued actuarial liabilities over a reasonable period. To the extent that these requirements are fully covered by assets in the trust, a contribution might not be made in a particular year. The Company made a pension contribution in the amount of  $1.2 million on September 11, 2017. The 2018 minimum required contribution is $931,000 for the 2017 plan year, and the Company has not determined if will make more than the minimum required contribution. Effective July 1, 2017, the Company amended the pension plan to effectuate a “soft freeze” such that no individual hired (or rehired in the case of a former employee) by the Company after September 30, 2017, whether or not such individual is or was a vested member in the plan, will be eligible to be an active member and be entitled to accrue any benefits under the plan. Certain individuals hired by the Company before July 1, 2017 are also not eligible to participate in the plan. Beginning in 2019, the Company anticipates that there may be a small reduction in the overall liability and service cost resulting from the closure of the plan to new entrants.

​ ​ ​ ​ 6.75% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 7.00% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 7.00% ​ ​
The assumed overall expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets used in calculating 2017 pension expense was 6.75%. Determination of the plan’s rate of return is based upon historical returns for equities and fixed income indexes. During the past five years, the Company’s plan assets have experienced the following annual returns: 17.4% in 2017, 8.2% in 2016, -0.4% in 2015, 8.3% in 2014, and 19.1% in 2013.

The rate used in plan calculations may be adjusted by management for current trends in the economic environment. With a traditional investment mix of over half of the plan’s investments in equities, the actual return for any one plan year may fluctuate significantly with changes in the stock market. Due to a decrease in the discount rate and the expected return on asset assumption used in the actuarial calculation of plan income, the Company expects to incur $1.7 million of expense in 2018 compared to $1.4 million 2017.
Plan Assets
The investment policy of the pension plan is designed for growth in value while minimizing risk to the overall portfolio. The Company diversifies the assets through investments in domestic fixed income securities and domestic and international equity securities. The assets are readily marketable and can be sold to fund benefit payment obligations as they become payable. The Company regularly reviews its policies on the investment mix and may make changes depending on economic conditions and perceived investment mix.
The fair value of the Company’s pension plan assets at December 31, 2017 and 2016 by asset category was as follows:

Total stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 was $3,000, $17,000, and $10,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2017, there was no remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock awards. The Plan expired on February 28, 2010, except as to outstanding options under the Plan, and no further options may be granted pursuant to the Plan.
(13)   Earnings per Share
Stock Dividend On July 1, 2017, the Company paid a special stock dividend of four percent to common shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2017. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect this change.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the year.
Presented below is a summary of the components used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per common share, which have been restated for all stock dividends.

Under the treasury stock method, outstanding stock options are dilutive when the average market price of the Company’s common stock, when combined with the effect of any unamortized compensation expense, exceeds the option price during the period, except when the Company has a loss from continuing operations available to common shareholders. In addition, proceeds from the assumed exercise of dilutive options along with the related tax benefit are assumed to be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price of such stock during the period.
The following options to purchase shares during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 were not included in the respective computations of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the option, when combined with the effect of the unamortized compensation expense, was greater than the average market price of the common shares and were considered anti-dilutive.

Repurchase Program On August 6, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase plan to purchase through open market transactions $2.0 million market value of the Company’s common stock. On August 8, 2017 the Board authorized the repurchase of an additional $1.5 million market value of the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had repurchased a total of 87,041 shares of common stock pursuant to the plan at an average price of  $17.63 per share, including 43,148 shares of common stock repurchased pursuant to the plan during the year ended December 31, 2017 at an average price of  $20.36 per share. At December 31, 2017, approximately $1.9 million remained available for the purchase of shares under the plan. The current plan expires September 8, 2018 unless renewed.
(14)   Capital Requirements
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state 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 consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of the Company and the Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.
In July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued final rules to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for the Company began on January 1, 2015. The Federal Reserve System’s (FRB) capital adequacy guidelines require that bank holding companies maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 4.5% of its risk-weighted assets, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 6% of its risk-weighted assets and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 8% of its risk-weighted assets. In addition, bank holding companies generally are required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4%.
In addition, the final rules establish a common equity tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets applicable to all banking organizations. Institutions that do not maintain the required capital buffer will become subject to progressively more stringent limitations on the percentage of earnings that can be paid out in dividends or used for stock repurchases and on the payment of discretionary bonuses to senior executive management. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in over four years beginning in 2016. On January 1, 2016, the first phase of the requirement went into effect at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, and the requirement will increase each subsequent year by an additional

0.625 percentage points, to reach its final level of 2.5% of risk weighted assets on January 1, 2019. Once fully phase in, the capital conservation buffer requirement effectively raises the minimum required risk-based capital ratios to 7% Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, 8.5% Tier 1 Capital and 10.5% Total Capital on a fully phased-in basis.
Under the Basel III requirements, at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company met all capital adequacy requirements and had regulatory capital ratios in excess of the levels established for well-capitalized institutions, as shown in the following table as of periods indicated:

(15)   Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value, establishes a framework for the measurement of fair value, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard applies whenever other standards require (permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In this standard, FASB clarified the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, the standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016 there were no transfers into or out of Levels 1-3.

Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.
and subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015
 
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and significant to the fair value. These may be internally developed using the Company’s best information and assumptions that a market participant would consider.
ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.
The Company is required to disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis separate from those measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis would include foreclosed real estate, long-lived assets, and core deposit intangible assets, which are reviewed when circumstances or other events indicate that impairment may have occurred.
Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis
Following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:
Available-for-sale securities
The fair value measurements of the Company’s investment securities are determined by a third party pricing service which considers observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. The fair value measurements are subject to independent verification to another pricing source by management each quarter for reasonableness. Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs.
Mortgage servicing rights
The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of estimated future cash flows utilizing contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees. The valuation models estimate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The Company classifies its servicing rights as Level 3.

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
Following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:
Impaired Loans
The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis other than loans that are considered impaired. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Under the collateral method, the Company’s determination of the fair value for these loans uses a market approach representing the estimated net proceeds to be received from the sale of the collateral based on observable market prices or market value provided by independent, licensed or certified appraisers, less estimated selling costs. Once the fair value of the collateral has been determined and any impairment amount calculated, a specific reserve allocation is made. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3. As of December 31, 2017, the Company identified $7.9 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $1.3 million. Related to these loans, there was $788,000 in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2016, the Company identified $7.0 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $1.1 million. Related to these loans, there was $1.0 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2016.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets
Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consisted of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral comprises of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are recorded as held for sale initially at the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. The Company’s determination of the fair value for these loans uses a market approach representing the estimated net proceeds to be received from the sale of the collateral based on observable market prices or market value provided by independent, licensed or certified appraisers, less estimated selling costs. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3.

(16)   Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such value:
Loans
The fair values of loans are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans could be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The net carrying amount of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. This method of estimating fair value does not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value prescribed by ASC Topic 820.
Investment Securities
A detailed description of the fair value measurement of the debt instruments in the available-for-sale sections of the investment security portfolio is provided in the Fair Value Measurement section above. A schedule of investment securities by category and maturity is provided in the notes on Investment Securities.

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock
Ownership of equity securities of FHLB is restricted and there is no established market for their resale. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Federal Funds Sold, Cash, and Due from Banks
The carrying amounts of short-term federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks, and cash and due from banks approximate fair value. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell classified as short-term generally mature in 90 days or less.
Certificates of Deposit in other banks
Certificates of deposit are other investments made by the Company with other financial institutions that are carried at cost. At December 31, 2017 the weighted average maturity of the interest bearing deposits is 4.20 years.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of estimated future cash flows utilizing contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees.
Cash Surrender Value – Life Insurance
The fair value of Bank owned life insurance (BOLI) approximates the carrying amount. Upon liquidation of these investments, the Company would receive the cash surrender value which equals the carrying amount.
Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable
For accrued interest receivable and payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short maturity for these financial instruments.
Deposits
The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand, NOW accounts, savings, and money market, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Interest-bearing Demand Notes to U.S. Treasury
For securities sold under agreements to repurchase and interest-bearing demand notes to U.S. Treasury, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time period.
Subordinated Notes and Other Borrowings
The fair value of subordinated notes and other borrowings is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for other borrowed money of similar remaining maturities.

Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments
The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the counterparties drawing on such financial instruments, and the present creditworthiness of such counterparties. The Company believes such commitments have been made on terms that are competitive in the markets in which it operates.
Limitations
The fair value estimates provided are made at a point in time based on market information and information about the financial instruments. Because no market exists for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the fair value estimates.
(17)   Repurchase Reserve Liability
The Company’s repurchase reserve liability for estimated losses incurred on sold loans was $160,000 at both December 31, 2017 and 2016. This liability represents management’s estimate of the potential repurchase or make-whole liability for residential mortgage loans originated for sale that may arise from representation and warranty claims that could relate to a variety of issues, including but not limited to, misrepresentation of facts, appraisal issues, or program requirements that may not meet investor guidelines. At December 31, 2016, the Company accrued $2,000 for the reimbursement of expenses incurred on one repurchase loss remitted in April 2016 compared to $40,000 accrued for the expenses on one repurchase loss remitted in April 2015 of the prior year. At December 31, 2017, the Company was servicing 2,773 loans sold to the secondary market with a balance of approximately $285.8 million compared to 2,877 loans sold with a balance of approximately $294.4 million at December 31, 2016.

(18)   Commitments and Contingencies
The Company issues financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business of meeting the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s extent of involvement and maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for financial instruments included on its consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2017, no amounts have been accrued for any estimated losses for these financial instruments.
The contractual amount of off-balance-sheet financial instruments as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

​
Commitments
Commitments to extend credit 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 certain of the commitments and letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, furniture and equipment, and real estate.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support contractual obligations of the Company’s customers. The approximate remaining term of standby letters of credit range from one month to five years at December 31, 2017.
Pending Litigation
The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal actions incidental to the Company’s past and current business activities. Based on the Company’s analysis, and considering the inherent uncertainties associated with litigation, management does not believe that it is reasonably possible that these legal actions will materially adversely affect the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results

of operations in the near term. The Company records a loss accrual for all legal matters for which it deems a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Some legal matters, which are at early stages in the legal process, have not yet progressed to the point where a loss amount can be estimated.

The board of directors intends that the Company will continue to pay quarterly dividends. The actual amount of quarterly dividends and the payment, as well as the amount, of any special dividend ultimately will depend on the payment of sufficient dividends by the subsidiary Bank to the Company. The payment by the Bank of dividends to the Company will depend upon such factors as the Bank’s financial condition, results of operations and current and anticipated cash needs, including capital requirements.
