1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Mackinac Financial Corporation (the “Corporation”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.  The unaudited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In order to properly reflect some categories of other income and other expenses, reclassifications of expense and income items have been made to prior period numbers.  The “net” other income and other expenses were unchanged by these reclassifications.

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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of investment securities, the valuation of foreclosed real estate, deferred tax assets, mortgage servicing rights, the assessment of goodwill for impairment, and the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations.

Acquired Loans

Loans acquired with evidence of credit deterioration since inception and for which it is probable that all contractual payments will not be received are accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (“ASC 310-30”).  These loans are recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition, with no carryover of the related allowance for loan losses.  Fair value of acquired loans is determined using a discounted cash flow methodology based on assumptions about the amount and timing of principal and interest payments, principal prepayments and principal defaults and losses, and current market rates. 

In recording the fair values of acquired impaired loans at acquisition date, management calculates a non-accretable difference (the credit component of the purchased loans) and an accretable difference (the yield component of the purchased loans).

Over the life of the acquired loans, management continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected.  We evaluate at each balance sheet date whether it is probable that we will be unable to collect all cash flows expected at acquisition and if so, recognize a provision for loan loss in our consolidated statement of operations. For any significant increases in cash flows expected to be collected, we adjust the amount of the accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the pool’s remaining life.

Performing acquired loans are accounted for under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Topic 310-20, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs.  Performance of certain loans may be monitored and based on management’s assessment of the cash flows and other facts available, portions of the accretable difference may be delayed or suspended if management deems appropriate.  The Corporation’s policy for determining when to discontinue accruing interest on performing acquired loans and the subsequent accounting for such loans is essentially the same as the policy for originated loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses includes specific allowances related to loans, when they have been judged to be impaired.  A loan is impaired when, based on current information, it is probable that the Corporation will not collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  These specific allowances are based on discounted cash flows of expected future payments using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

The Corporation also has an unallocated allowance for loan losses for loans not considered impaired.  The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which management believes is adequate to provide for probable loan losses.  Management periodically evaluates the adequacy of the allowance using the Corporation’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, composition of the portfolio, current economic conditions, and other factors.  The allowance does not include the effects of expected losses related to future events or future changes in economic conditions.  This evaluation is inherently subjective since it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change.  Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes the collectability of the principal is unlikely.  In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses.  These agencies may require additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of collectability.

In management’s opinion, the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable losses relating to specifically identified loans, as well as probable losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date.

Stock Compensation Plans

On May 22, 2012, the Corporation’s shareholders approved the Mackinac Financial Corporation 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan, under which current and prospective employees, non-employee directors and consultants may be awarded incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, shares of restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), stock grants, or stock appreciation rights.  The aggregate number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock issuable under the plan is 575,000. At March 31, 2020 there were 76,310 shares available for issuance under this plan. Awards are made to certain other senior officers at the discretion of the Corporation’s management.  Compensation cost equal to the fair value of the award is recognized over the vesting period.

2.RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income.

ASU 2016-13 requires an entity to measure expected credit losses for financial assets over the estimated lifetime of expected credit loss and record an allowance that, when deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, presents the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The standard includes the following core concepts in determining the expected credit loss.  The estimate must: (a) be based on an asset’s amortized cost (including premiums or discounts, net deferred fees and costs, foreign exchange and fair value hedge accounting adjustments), (b) reflect losses expected over the remaining contractual life of an asset (considering the effect of voluntary prepayments), (c) consider available relevant information about the estimated collectability of cash flows (including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts), and (d) reflect the risk of loss, even when that risk is remote.

ASU 2016-13 also amends the recording of purchased credit-deteriorated assets. Under the new guidance, an allowance will be recognized at acquisition through a gross-up approach whereby an entity will record as the initial amortized cost the sum of (a) the purchase price and (b) an estimate of credit losses as of the date of acquisition. In addition, the guidance also requires immediate recognition in earnings of any subsequent changes, both favorable and unfavorable, in expected cash flows by adjusting this allowance.

ASU 2016-13 also amends the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and requires entities to determine whether all or a portion of the unrealized loss on an available-for-sale debt security is a credit loss. Management may not use the length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position as a factor in concluding whether a credit loss exists, as is currently permitted. In addition, an entity will recognize an allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities as a contra-account to the amortized cost basis rather than as a direct reduction of the amortized cost basis

of the investment, as is currently required. As a result, entities will recognize improvements to credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities immediately in earnings rather than as interest income over time under current practice.

New disclosures required by ASU 2016-13 include: (a) for financial assets measured at amortized cost, an entity will be required to disclose information about how it developed its allowance, including changes in the factors that influenced management’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes, (b) for financial receivables and net investments in leases measured at amortized cost, an entity will be required to further disaggregate the information it currently discloses about the credit quality of these assets by year or the asset’s origination or vintage for as many as five annual periods, and (c) for available-for-sale debt securities, an entity will be required to provide a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses and an aging analysis for securities that are past due.

Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings will be recorded as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Corporation is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2016-13 to determine the potential impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial condition and results of operations.  The Corporation has formed a cross-functional implementation team consisting of individuals from finance, credit and information systems.  A project plan and timeline has been developed and the implementation team meets regularly to assess the project status to ensure adherence to the timeline.  The implementation team has also been working with a software vendor to assist in implementing required changes to credit loss estimation models and proceses, and is finalizing the historical data collected to be utilized in the credit loss models.  The Corporation expects to recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which ASU 2016-13 is effective.  The Corporation has not yet determined the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.  In October 2019 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) voted to defer the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, for smaller reporting companies (as defined by the Securities Exchange Commission).  As the Corporation qualifies as a smaller reporting company, management plans to delay the implementation of CECL beyond 2020 and adjust the timetable of the various CECL implementation tasks.  Management believes that the Corporation will benefit from additional time to run parallel testing and refine credit loss estimation models.

3.EARNINGS PER SHARE

Diluted earnings per share, which reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock awards were fully vested and resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in our earnings, is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents, after giving effect for dilutive shares issued.

The following shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

4.INVESTMENT SECURITIES
