Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1:Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Account Policies

 

Nature of Operations

 

Cincinnati Bancorp (“Company”) is the mid-tier holding company for Cincinnati Federal (the “Bank”), a federally chartered stock savings and loan association that is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking and financial services to individual and corporate customers in Hamilton County, Ohio and surrounding areas. On October 14, 2015, the Bank reorganized into the mutual holding company structure. As part of the reorganization, the Company sold 773,663 shares of common stock at a price of $10.00 per share in a public offering and issued 945,587 shares of common stock to CF Mutual Holding Company, the Company’s parent mutual holding company. The Company is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Company is subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 include the accounts of Cincinnati Bancorp and the Bank. All significant intercompany items have been eliminated.

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The interim financial statements as of June 30, 2018, and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 are unaudited and reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are the only adjustments contained in the interim financial statements. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the year ending December 31, 2018, or any other period.

 

Use of Estimates

 

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

 

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

 

NOTE 2:Securities

 

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

Cincinnati Bancorp

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

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

 

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

 

   Amortized
Cost
   Gross
Unrealized
Gains
   Gross
Unrealized
Losses
   Fair Value 
                 
Available-for-Sale Securities:                    
                     
June 30, 2018 (Unaudited):                    
Mortgage-backed securities of government sponsored entities  $758,876   $5,791   $(2,986)  $761,681 
                     
December 31, 2017:                    
Mortgage-backed securities of government sponsored entities  $909,161   $4,470   $(3,409)  $910,222 

 

The Company had no sales of investment securities during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The Company had not pledged any of its investment securities as of June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

 

The amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, by contractual maturity, if applicable, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties, as is the case with mortgage-backed securities included in the following table:

 

   June 30, 2018   December 31, 2017 
   Amortized   Fair   Amortized   Fair 
   Cost   Value   Cost   Value 
   (Unaudited)         
Mortgage-backed securities of government sponsored entities  $758,876   $761,681   $909,161   $910,222 

 

Certain investments in debt securities have fair values at an amount less than their historical cost. The total fair value of these investments at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was

$209,245 and $785,539, respectively, which is approximately 27% and 86%, respectively, of the Company’s investment portfolio.

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

 

Definitions are as follows:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Special Mention (5) loans have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention loans are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Ordinarily, special mention credits have characteristics which corrective management action would remedy.

 

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

 

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

 

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

A loan is considered impaired, in accordance with the impairment accounting guidance (ASC 310, Receivables), when based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Impaired loans include nonperforming commercial loans and also include loans modified in troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”).

 

The following tables present impaired loans at June 30, 2018, June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017:

NOTE 4:Earnings Per Common Share

 

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed in a manner similar to that of basic EPS except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of incremental common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were issued during the period. Unallocated common shares held by the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“the ESOP”) are shown as a reduction in stockholders’ equity and are excluded from weighted-average common shares outstanding for both basic and diluted EPS calculations until they are committed to be released. The computations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

NOTE 5:Regulatory Matters

 

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

Cincinnati Bancorp

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), common equity Tier I capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital to average assets (as defined). Management believes that, as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject at such dates.

 

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

 

The below minimum capital requirements exclude the capital conservation buffer required to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The capital conservation buffer is being phased in from 0.0% for 2015 to 2.50% by 2019. The capital conservation buffer was 1.875% at June 30, 2018 and 1.25% at December 31, 2017.

 

As of the most recent notification from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Bank was categorized as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since the last notification that would change the Bank's category.

 

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

 

   Actual   Minimum Capital Requirement   Minimum to Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions 
   Amount   Ratio   Amount   Ratio   Amount   Ratio 
   (Dollars in thousands) 
                         

As of June 30, 2018

NOTE 6:Disclosure About Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

 

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

 

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

 

Level 2Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full-term of the assets or liabilities.

 

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

 

Recurring Measurements

 

The following tables present the fair value measurements of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

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

 

Available-for-sale Securities

 

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

 

 20 

 

 

Cincinnati Bancorp

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

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

 

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

   Three Months   Three Months   Six Months   Six Months 
   Ended   Ended   Ended   Ended 
   June 30,   June 30,   June 30,   June 30, 
   2018   2017   2018   2017 
   (Unaudited) 
                 
Fair value as of the beginning of the period  $1,037,222   $848,754   $909,821   $730,164 
Recognition of mortgage servicing rights on the sale of loans   56,256    81,580    105,183    121,033 
Changes in fair value due to changes in valuation inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model   (8,824)   (13,986)   69,650    65,151 
                     
Fair value at the end of the period  $1,084,654   $916,348   $1,084,654   $916,348 

 

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

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

 

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

 

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale

 

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

 

Appraisals of real estate are obtained when the real estate is acquired and an appraisal is subsequently deemed necessary by events in the environment by the Chief Financial Officer. Appraisals are reviewed internally for accuracy and consistency in accordance with regulatory requirements. Appraisers are selected from the list of approved independent appraisers maintained by management. There were no foreclosed assets at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

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

 

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

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

 

Loans Held for Sale

 

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

 

Loans

 

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

Federal Home Loan Bank Lender Risk Account Receivable

 

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

 

Deposits

 

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

 

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

 

Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing debt. Fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market.

 

If a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique is used to estimate fair value.

 

Advances from Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance and Interest Payable

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

 

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

 

The fair value of commitments to originate loans is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of forward sale commitments is estimated based on current market prices for loans of similar terms and credit quality. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of commitments was not material.

NOTE 7:Commitments and Credit Risk

 

Commitments to Originate Loans

 

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

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

 

The dollar amount of commitments to fund fixed rate loans at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 follows:

 

   June 30,  December 31,  
   2018  2017

Commitments to fund fixed-rate loans  $5,854,923   4.375% - 6.25%  $3,247,703   3.75% - 4.50%  

 

Lines of Credit

 

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

 

Loan commitments outstanding at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were composed of the following:

 

   June 30,   December 31, 
   2018   2017 
   (Unaudited)     
         
Commitments to originate loans  $5,582,608   $6,360,251

NOTE 9:Equity Incentive Plan

 

In May 2017, the Company’s stockholders approved the Cincinnati Bancorp 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”). The 2017 Plan authorizes the issuance or delivery to participants of up to 117,940 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the grants of restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, incentive stock options, and non-qualified stock options. Of this number, the maximum number of shares of Company common stock that may be issued under the 2017 Plan pursuant to the exercise of stock options is 84,243 shares and the maximum number of shares of Company common stock that may be issued as restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 33,697 shares. Stock options awarded to employees may be incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options. Shares subject to award under the 2017 Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares. The 2017 Plan contains annual and lifetime limits on certain types of awards to individual participants. 

 

Awards may vest or become exercisable only upon the achievement of performance measures or based solely on the passage of time after award. Stock options and restricted stock awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the 2017 Plan).

 

In June 2017, the Company granted stock options for 79,187 shares to members of the Board of Directors and certain members of management. Options granted in June 2017 have an exercise price of $9.55, as determined on the grant date and expire ten years from the grant date.

 

The fair value was calculated for stock options granted in June 2017 using the following assumptions: expected volatility of 11.45%, a risk-free interest rate of 2.31%, and an expected term of ten years.

 

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the year 2018 was $3.64 per share. The weighted-average grant date fair value of shares granted during 2017 was $9.55.

 

At June 30, 2018, a total of 15,837 incentive stock options were exercisable.

In June 2017, the Company awarded 33,697 restricted shares to members of the Board of Directors and certain members of management. The restricted stock awards have a five year vesting period. Shares of restricted stock granted to employees under the 2017 Plan are subject to vesting based on continuous employment for a specified time period following the date of grant. During the restricted period, the holder is entitled to full voting rights and dividends, thus are considered participating securities.

 

Total compensation cost recognized in the income statement for share-based payment arrangements during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $25,791 and $51,581, respectively. Total compensation cost for share-based payment arrangements during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2017 was $7,990 and $7,990, respectively.

 

As of June 30, 2018, there was approximately $404,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 4 years.

 

NOTE 10:Pending Acquisition

 

On April 18, 2018, Cincinnati Bancorp (the “Company”), the holding company for Cincinnati Federal and the majority-owned subsidiary of CF Mutual Holding Company (the “MHC”), the MHC, Cincinnati Federal and Kentucky Federal Savings and Loan Association ("KF"), a mutual savings association, entered into a definitive merger agreement providing for the merger of KF with and into Cincinnati Federal. Kentucky Federal Savings and Loan Association operates as a community bank with three banking offices in Covington, Florence and Williamstown, Kentucky. At June 30, 2018, KF had total assets of approximately $31.6 million, consisting primarily of $17.3 million of net loans. Recorded liabilities totaled $28.8 million, consisting primarily of $27.1 million of deposits. Equity capital totaled approximately $2.8 million.

 

The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2018, subject to the receipt of approval by Kentucky Federal Savings and Loan Association members and all applicable governmental approvals and the satisfaction or waiver of all other conditions precedent to the merger.

 

NOTE 11:Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Cincinnati Bancorp is an “emerging growth company.” As an “emerging growth company”, we have elected to use the extended transition period to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to the financial statements of private companies. Accordingly, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

FASB ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

ASU No. 2018-02 was issued in February 2018 and addresses a narrow-scope financial reporting issue that arose as a consequence of the passage of H.R. 1, originally known as the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.” GAAP requires adjustment of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates with the effect to be included in income from continuing operations in the reporting period that includes the enactment date. This guidance is applicable even in situations in which the related income tax effects of items in accumulated other comprehensive income were originally recognized in other comprehensive income rather than in income from continuing operations. As a consequence, the tax effects of items within accumulated other comprehensive income, referred to as stranded tax effects in the update, do not reflect the appropriate tax rate. The amendments in ASU No. 2018-02 allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Because the amendments only relate to the reclassification of the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the underlying guidance that requires that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations is not affected. ASU No. 2018-02 is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. Cincinnati Bancorp early adopted ASU No. 2018-02 January 1, 2018 and reclassified its stranded tax effects totaling approximately $40,400 (credit) into retained earnings.

FASB ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Scope Modification Accounting

 

In May 2017 the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in this update provide guidance about which the terms or conditions of share-based payment award require an entity to apply modifications accounting. The amendments in this update will be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 31, 2017. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

FASB ASU 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715)

 

ASU No. 2017-07 was issued in March 2017 and applies to all employers that offer to their employees defined benefit pension plans, other postretirement benefit plans, or other types of benefits accounted for under Topic 715. The amendments in this update require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost, as defined, are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. If a separate line item or items are not used, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net benefit cost must be disclosed. The amendments in ASU No. 2017-07 are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. For other entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments in this update are to be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the income statement. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

FASB ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments

 

On August 26, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force), ("ASU 2016-15"). The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues and apply to all entities, including both business entities and not-for-profit entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 230, Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company has assessed ASU 2016-15 and does not expect a significant impact on its accounting and financial statement disclosures.

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

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income.

 

In issuing the standard, the FASB is responding to criticism that today’s guidance delays recognition of credit losses. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model. The new model, referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model, will apply to: (1) financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and (2) certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. This includes, but is not limited to, loans, leases, held-to-maturity securities, loan commitments, and financial guarantees. The CECL model does not apply to available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities. For AFS debt securities with unrealized losses, entities will measure credit losses in a manner similar to what they do today, except that the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. As a result, entities will recognize improvements to estimated credit losses immediately in earnings rather than as interest income over time, as they do today. The ASU also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan and lease losses. In addition, entities will need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for public business entities that are U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filers, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (i.e., modified retrospective approach). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments to the Company’s financial position and results of operations and currently does not know or cannot reasonably quantify the impact of the adoption of the amendments as a result of the complexity and extensive changes from these amendments. The Allowance for Loan Losses (ALL) estimate is material to the Company and given the change from an incurred loss model to a methodology that considers the credit loss over the life of the loan, there is the potential for an increase in the ALL at adoption date. The Company is anticipating a significant change in the processes and procedures to calculate the ALL, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. In addition, the current accounting policy and procedures for the other-than-temporary impairment on available-for-sale securities will be replaced with an allowance approach. The Company continues collecting and retaining historical loan and credit data. The Company is in the process of identifying data gaps. Certain CECL models are currently being evaluated. The Audit Committee is informed of ongoing CECL developments. For additional information on the allowance for loan losses, see Note 3.

FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

For finance leases, a lessee shall recognize in the statement of income interest on the lease liability separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset. Amortization of the right-to-use asset shall be on a straight-line basis, unless another basis is more representative of the pattern in which the lessee expects to consume the right-of-use asset’s future economic benefits. If the lease does not meet any of the five criteria, the lessee shall classify it as an operating lease and shall recognize a single lease cost on a straight line basis over the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Public business entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Nonpublic business entities should apply the amendments for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The impact is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations since the Company does not have a material amount of lease agreements.

FASB ASU 2016-01 Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. For public business entities, the amendments in this update include the elimination of the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, the requirement to use the exit price notion when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, the requirement to present separately 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 when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, the requirement for separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or accompanying notes to the financial statements, and the amendments clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity's other deferred tax assets.

 

ASU 2016-01 is effective for non public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For private companies the new guidance becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments should be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Early adoption of the amendments in this update is not permitted, except that early application by public business entities to financial statements of fiscal years or interim periods that have not yet been issued or, by all other entities, that have not yet been made available for issuance are permitted as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption for the following amendment: An entity should present separately 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 if the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments, but does not expect them to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations since it does not have any equity securities or a valuation allowance. However, the amendments will have an impact on certain items that are disclosed at fair value that are not currently utilizing the exit price notion when measuring fair value. Adoption of the standard is not expected to have a significant impact on its fair value and other disclosure requirements. For additional information on fair value of assets and liabilities, see Note 6.

 

FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued amended guidance on revenue recognition from contracts with customers. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most contract revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the amended guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Public entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2014-09 to interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (that is, a public entity would be required to apply the new revenue standard beginning in the first interim period within the period of adoption). Nonpublic entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2014-09 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2018, and to interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company continues to assess the guidance from the FASB and the Transition Resource Group for Revenue Recognition in determining the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its accounting and disclosures. The amendments could potentially impact the accounting procedures and processes over the recognition of certain revenue sources, including, but not limited to, non-interest income. Management continues to evaluate those revenue streams that could be impacted by the amendments. The analysis includes identification of potential performance obligations and revenue principles. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s accounting and financial statement disclosures.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in Cincinnati Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017

 

Total Assets. Total assets were $177.5 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $7.0 million, or 4.2%, from the $170.5 million at December 31, 2017. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in loans, net of allowances, of $6.1 million, and an increase of $1.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $1.4 million or 13.5%, to $11.7 million at June 30, 2018 from $10.3 million at December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily the result of deposit and additional FHLB Advances.

 

Net Loans. Net loans increased $6.1 million, or 4.2%, to $153.1 million at June 30, 2018 from $147.0 million at December 31, 2017. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we originated $24.3 million of loans for portfolio, $11.5 million of which were one-to-four family residential real estate loans, $5.4 million were multifamily loans, $3.1 million were nonresidential loans, $2.4 million were home equity and home equity lines of credit and $1.9 million were residential construction and land loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we originated $27.6 million of one-to- four family residential loans for sale, on both a servicing–retained and servicing–released basis. Subject to market conditions, management intends to continue this sales activity in future periods to generate gains on sale and servicing fee income.

 

The one-to-four owner-occupied loan portfolio increased $3.8 million or 4.9%. The nonresidential portfolio increased $1.3 million or 7.2% during the six months ended June 30, 2018. The one-to-four family investment loan portfolio decreased $299,000, or 2.6%. The home equity lines of credit portfolio decreased $5,000 or 0.04% to $11.7 million at June 30, 2018. Construction and land loans decreased $713,000 or 11.5% and the multifamily portfolio increased $1.9 million, or 7.8%. We currently sell certain fixed-rate, 15- and 30-year term mortgage loans. We have sold loans on both a servicing-released and servicing-retained basis to: the FHLB-Cincinnati, through its mortgage purchase program; Freddie Mac; and certain private sector third-party buyers.

 

Loans Held for Sale. Loans held for sale decreased $338,000, or 15.2%, to $1.9 million at June 30, 2018 from $2.2 million at December 31, 2017.

 

Available-for-Sale Securities. Available-for-sale securities, which consisted entirely of U.S. government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities, decreased $149,000, or 16.3%, to $762,000 at June 30, 2018 from $910,000 at December 31, 2017. There were no securities purchases during the six months ended June 30, 2018. There were $145,000 in maturities, the remaining difference was due to the change in market values within the portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Deposits. Deposits increased $2.5 million, or 2.2%, to $116.5 million at June 30, 2018 from $113.9 million at December 31, 2017. Core deposits, defined as demand, NOW and savings accounts, increased $958,000, or 2.1%, to $47.8 million at June 30, 2018 from $46.8 million at December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily the result of marketing efforts directed at increasing retail deposit accounts. Time deposits increased $1.5 million, or 2.3%, to $68.7 million at June 30, 2018 from $67.2 million at December 31, 2017. Certificates originated through the National CD Rateline service decreased $992,000 to $19.0 million at June 30, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, management continued its strategy of pursuing growth in lower cost core deposits, and intends to continue its efforts to increase core deposits.

 

 35 

 

 

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances. Federal Home Loan Bank Advances increased $4.7 million, or 13.6%, to $39.0 million at June 30, 2018. The additional advances were used to fund loan originations.

 

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $416,000, or 2.2%, to $19.7 million at June 30, 2018 from $19.3 million at December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily due to net income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $365,000. Stockholder’s equity also increased $40,000 due to a reclassification of deferred tax liabilities in other accumulated comprehensive income during the first quarter of 2018 related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Job Act in December 2017.

 

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017

 

General. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 was $186,000, compared to net income of $223,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $37,000, or 16.6%. The decrease was primarily due to a $70,000 decrease in noninterest income and a $141,000 increase in noninterest expense, partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $127,000.

 

Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income increased $275,000, or 19.5%, to $1.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to the comparable quarter in 2017. Interest income on loans increased $248,000, or 17.9%, to $1.6 million as of June 30, 2018. The average balance of loans during the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased $18.2 million to $154.8 million, compared to $136.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The average yield on loans increased 17 basis points to 4.24% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from 4.07% for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Interest income on securities available-for-sale remained flat at $4,000 for the quarter. Interest income on other investments increased $27,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 due to an increase in the dividend received on FHLB Cincinnati stock and an increase in short-term interest rates.

 

Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $148,000, or 43.2%, to $489,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from $341,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Interest expense on deposit accounts increased $89,000, or 35.9%, to $336,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from $247,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The increase in deposit expense between comparable quarters in 2018 from 2017 was primarily due to $5.8 million increase in average deposit accounts, and a 29 basis point increase in average cost.

 

Interest expense on interest-bearing demand accounts increased $18,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The average balances in demand interest bearing accounts increased $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018. The average cost of interest-bearing demand accounts increased 80 basis points. The increase in cost is primarily attributable to a high yield promotion for larger balance demand accounts. Interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $64,000 as a result of a $4.4 million, or 6.8%, increase in the average balance of these certificates. The average cost of certificates increased 28 basis points to 1.69%. Savings interest expense increased $7,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The average cost of savings deposits increased 11 basis points to 0.19% primarily due to a high yield savings promotion.

 

Interest expense on FHLB advances increased $59,000, or 62.8%, to $153,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from $94,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The average balance of advances increased $9.0 million, or 33.4%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The average cost of FHLB borrowings increased 31 basis points. The increase in the cost of advances resulted from increases in short term interest rates.

 

 36 

 

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses increased $127,000, or 11.9%, to $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. Average interest-earning assets increased $21.6 million primarily due to an $18.2 million increase in average outstanding loans for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. Interest on other interest earning assets increased $27,000 primarily due to an increase in average yields of 62 basis points due to the increase in the dividend rate on FHLB stock and increase in interest rates on balances held at other depository banks and on fed funds sold. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $14.9 million from the same quarter in 2017 due to the funding needed for the increase in lending. The interest rate spread decreased 16 basis points to 2.66% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to 2.82% at quarter ended June 30, 2017. The net interest margin decreased 8 basis points to 2.90% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to 2.98% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

 

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses expense increased $5,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. A provision for loan losses was deemed prudent based on continued loan growth, particularly in the one-to-four owner-occupied loan, nonresidential and multifamily portfolio segments.

 

The allowance for loan losses reflects the estimate we believe to be adequate to cover probable losses which were inherent in the loan portfolio at June 30, 2018. While we believe the estimates and assumptions used in our determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, such estimates and assumptions could be proven incorrect in the future, and the actual amount of future provisions may exceed the amount of past provisions, and the increase in future provisions that may be required may adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, bank regulatory agencies periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require an increase in the provision for possible loan losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of management.

 

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $70,000, or 9.3%, to $685,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from $755,000 for the comparable quarter in 2017. The gain on sale of loans decreased $91,000, or 16.3%, to $465,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from $555,000 for the comparable quarter in 2017. The fair value of existing mortgage servicing rights and mortgage servicing fees decreased $5,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

 

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $141,000, or 9.5%, to $1.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to the comparable quarter in 2017. The increase was due primarily to a $60,000 increase in merger-related expenses. Loan costs increased $29,000, or 31.1%. Salaries and benefits increased $23,000 caused by increased staffing demands, incentive equity plan expense, and increased payroll expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. Data processing expense increased $6,000, or 4.7%, to $142,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from $136,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Professional fees decreased $7,000, or 9.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 due to lower strategic planning and legal costs. Advertising expense increased $17,000, or 88.1% due to increased print, billboard and social media spending to promote deposit accounts.

 

Federal Income Taxes. Federal income taxes decreased $51,000 from the first quarter of 2017 primarily due to a decrease in the effective corporate tax rate to 24% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from 33% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

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

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017

 

General. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $365,000, compared to net income of $382,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $17,000, or 4.4%. The decrease was primarily due to a $389,000 increase in noninterest expense, partially offset by an increase in net interest income before the provision for loan losses of $252,000 and an increase in noninterest income of $62,000.

 

 38 

 

 

Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and Dividend income increased $514,000, or 18.5%, to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from the comparable six months in 2017. Interest income on loans increased $458,000, or 16.7%, to $3.2 million as of June 30, 2018. The average balance of loans during the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased $18.0 million to $153.0 million, compared to $135.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The average yield on loans increased 12 basis points to 4.18% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from 4.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Interest income on securities available-for-sale increased $4,000 due to a 142 basis point increase in average yield on the securities portfolio, partially offset by a $751,000 decrease in the balance of the average securities portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2018. Interest income on other investments increased $52,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 primarily due to an increase in average yields of 52 basis points compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $261,000, or 39.1%, to $929,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $668,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Interest expense on deposit accounts increased $152,000, or 31.1%, to $641,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $489,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase between comparable six months in 2018 from 2017 was primarily due to a $106,000 increase in interest expense on certificates of deposit resulting from a $3.9 million, or 6.0%, increase in the average balance of these certificates. The average cost of certificates increased 23 basis points to 1.62%. Interest expense on interest-bearing demand accounts increased $38,000 from the comparable six months in 2017. The increase in interest expense reflects the promotion of a high yielding checking account product for large balance DDA accounts. The average balances in demand interest bearing and non-interest bearing accounts during the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased $5.1 million to $24.2 million compared to $19.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Savings interest expense increased $8,000 as average balances remained unchanged, however, the average cost of savings deposits increased 7 basis points during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to June 30, 2017.

 

Interest expense on FHLB advances increased $110,000, or 61.4%, to $288,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $179,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The average balance of advances increased $9.0 million, or 34.3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The average cost of FHLB borrowing increased 27 basis points during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $252,000, or 12.0%, to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Average interest-earning assets increased $21.8 million primarily due to a $18.0 million increase in average outstanding loans for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Interest on other interest earning assets increased $52,000 primarily due to an increase in average yields of 52 basis points due to the increase in the dividend rate on FHLB stock and increase in interest rates on balances held at other depository banks. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $14.4 million from the same six months in 2017 due to the funding needed for the increase in lending. The interest rate spread decreased 16 basis points to 2.66% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to 2.82% at six months ended June 30, 2017. The net interest margin decreased 8 basis point to 2.89% for the first six months of 2018 from 2.97% for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses increased $20,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The provision was recorded based on managements’ evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio and economic conditions. The growth in the loan portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2018 indicated an upward qualitative adjustment.

 

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income increased $62,000, or 4.8%, to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $1.3 million for the comparable six months in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an $85,000 increase in mortgage servicing fees due to higher mortgage servicing rights valuations, partially offset by a decrease of $46,000 in the gain on sale of loans.

 

 39 

 

 

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $389,000, or 13.8%, to $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was due primarily to a $164,000, or 11.1%, increase in salary and employee benefits to $1.6 million in the first six months of 2018 from $1.5 million for the comparable six months in 2017 caused by increased staffing demands, salaries, and incentive equity plan expense. Data processing expense increased $18,000, or 6.6%, to $292,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $274,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was due to bank growth and additional products. Advertising expense increased $27,000, or 57.9% due to increased print, billboard and social media marketing. Loan cost expense increased $72,000 or 49.4% primarily due to increased loan originations.

 

Federal Income Taxes. Federal income taxes decreased $79,000 primarily due to a decrease in the effective corporate tax rate to 22% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from 32% for six months ended June 30, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. Liquidity is the ability to meet financial obligations that arise in the ordinary course of business. Liquidity is primarily needed to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers and to fund current and planned expenditures. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities proceeds from the sale of loans, and proceeds from the sale or maturities of securities. In addition, the Bank may borrow from the FHLB. At June 30, 2018, the Bank had $39.0 million outstanding in advances from the FHLB. At June 30, 2018, the Bank had collateral based capacity to borrow $40.1 million. The Bank had additional lines of credit with three commercial banks totaling $11.5 million. Additionally, the Bank has contingent funding sources with CDARS and the StoneCastle’s Federally Insured Cash Account (FICA) program.

 

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

 

Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $794,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Net cash used in operating activities was $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Net cash used in investing activities, which consists primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of securities, offset by principal collections on loans, proceeds from the sale of securities and proceeds from maturing securities and pay downs on mortgage-backed securities, was $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Net cash provided by financing activities, consisting primarily of the activity in deposit accounts and FHLB advances, was $6.6 million and $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

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

 

Cincinnati Bancorp is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity to pay any dividend to its stockholders and for other corporate purposes. Cincinnati Bancorp’s primary source of liquidity is dividend payments, if any, received from the Bank. The Bank’s ability to pay dividends is subject to regulatory restrictions. At June 30, 2018, Cincinnati Bancorp (on an unconsolidated, stand-alone basis) had liquid assets of $652,000.

 

At June 30, 2018, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements with a Tier 1 leverage capital level of $19.4 million, or 11.0% of adjusted total assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $8.8 million, or 5.0%; total risk-based capital of $20.8 million, or 16.3% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $12.7 million, or 10.0% of risk-weighted assets; and common equity tier 1 risk based capital of $19.4 million, or 15.2%, of risk weighted assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $8.3 million, or 6.5%. At December 31, 2017, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements with a Tier 1 leverage capital level of $18.8 million, or 11.3% of adjusted total assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $8.3 million, or 5.0%; and total risk-based capital of $20.2 million, or 16.5% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the well-capitalized required level of $12.2 million, or 10.0% of risk-weighted assets. Accordingly, Cincinnati Federal was categorized as well capitalized at June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017. Management is not aware of any conditions or events since the most recent notification that would change its category.
