Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Nature of Operations: Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (the Corporation) is a bank holding company headquartered in Minerva, Ohio that provides, through its banking subsidiary, Consumers National Bank (the Bank), a broad array of products and services throughout its primary market area of Carroll, Columbiana, Jefferson, Stark, Summit, Wayne and contiguous counties in Ohio. The Bank’s business involves attracting deposits from businesses and individual customers and using such deposits to originate commercial, mortgage and consumer loans in its primary market area.

Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements for interim periods are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2020. The results of operations for the interim period disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and the Bank. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Segment Information: The Corporation is a bank holding company engaged in the business of commercial and retail banking, which accounts for substantially all the revenues, operating income, and assets. Accordingly, all of the Corporation’s operations are recorded in one segment, banking.

Reclassifications: Certain items in prior financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Any reclassifications had no impact on prior year net income or shareholders’ equity.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective: In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU adds a new Topic 326 to the codification and removes the thresholds that companies apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, receivables, and held-to-maturity debt securities. Under current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, companies generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred. The revised guidance will remove all current loss recognition thresholds and will require companies 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 corporation expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. ASU 2016-13 also amends the credit loss measurement guidance for available-for-sale debt securities and beneficial interests in securitized financial assets. The guidance in ASU 2016-13 is effective for “public business entities,” as defined in the guidance, that are SEC filers for fiscal years and for interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption of the guidance is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. However, during July 2019, FASB unanimously voted for a proposal to delay this ASU to January 2023 for smaller reporting companies. On October 16, 2019, FASB approved a final ASU delaying the effective date. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022 for certain entities, including smaller reporting companies. The Corporation is a smaller reporting company.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, "Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting". The ASU is intended to provide relief for companies preparing for discontinuation of interest rates based on LIBOR, or other reference rates that may be discontinued, and provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria. The ASU also provides for a one-time sale and/or transfer to AFS or trading to be made for HTM debt securities that both reference an eligible reference rate and were classified as HTM before January 1, 2020. ASU 2020-04 is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The guidance requires companies to apply the guidance prospectively to contract modifications and hedging relationships while the one-time election to sell and/or transfer debt securities classified as HTM may be made any time after March 12, 2020. The Corporation does not expect ASU 2020-04 to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

Note 2 – Acquisition

On December 29, 2020, the Bank entered into a Branch Purchase and Assumption Agreement (P&A Agreement) with CFBank National Association (CFBank) to acquire two branches of CFBank in Columbiana County, Ohio. The P&A Agreement provides for the sale and transfer by CFBank to the Bank the land, buildings and other associated assets of CFBank’s drive-up branch location in Wellsville, Ohio and CFBank’s branch location in Calcutta, Ohio (the Branches); approximately $100 million in deposits attributable to the Branches; $15 million in aggregate principal amount of subordinated debt securities issued by unrelated financial institutions; all performing loans attributable to the Branches which are outstanding at closing (totaling approximately $3.1 million in aggregate principal amount as of November 30, 2020); and up to $13.5 million in aggregate principal amount of single family residential mortgage loans and home equity lines of credit to be identified by the parties prior to the closing principally from CFBank’s Northeast Ohio loan portfolio. In addition, CFBank will provide the opportunity for the Corporation to purchase at par at least $15 million in aggregate principal amount of participation interests in commercial and commercial real estate loans originated by and held in CFBank’s portfolio. In exchange, Consumers will pay to CFBank the net book value of the land, building and associated assets of the Branches, a deposit premium equal to 1.75% of the average daily deposits of the Branches for the 30 days preceding the closing, and the par value of the subordinated debt securities and loans acquired by Consumers.

The closing of the transactions contemplated by the P&A Agreement is subject to regulatory approval and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. The parties expect the closing of the transactions to occur early in the third calendar quarter of 2021.

On June 14, 2019, the Corporation entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Peoples Bancorp of Mt. Pleasant, Inc. (Peoples) and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Peoples National Bank of Mount Pleasant (Peoples Bank). On January 1, 2020, Consumers completed the acquisition by merger of Peoples in a stock and cash transaction for an aggregate consideration of approximately $10,405. In connection with the acquisition, the Corporation issued 269,920 shares of common stock and paid $5,128 in cash to the former shareholders of Peoples. Immediately following the merger, Peoples Bank, was merged into the Corporation’s banking subsidiary, Consumers National Bank.

On December 31, 2019, Peoples had approximately $72,016 in total assets, $55,273 in loans and $60,826 in deposits at its three banking centers located in Mt. Pleasant, Adena, and Dillonvale, Ohio. The assets and liabilities of Peoples were recorded on the Corporation’s Balance Sheet at their estimated fair values as of January 1, 2020, the acquisition date, and Peoples’ results of operations are included in the Corporation’s Consolidated Statements of Income beginning on that date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition of Peoples. The core deposit intangible will be amortized over ten years on a straight-line basis. Goodwill will not be amortized, but instead will be evaluated for impairment.

The acquired assets and liabilities were measured at estimated fair values. Management made certain estimates and exercised judgement in accounting for the acquisition. The fair value of loans was estimated using discounted contractual cash flows. The book balance of the loans at the time of the acquisition was $55,273 before considering Peoples’ allowance for loan losses, which was not carried over. The fair value disclosed above reflects a credit-related adjustment of $(890) and an adjustment for other factors of $937. Loans evidencing credit deterioration since origination, purchased credit impaired loans, included in loans receivable, were immaterial. Acquisition costs of $827 pre-tax, or $680 after-tax, were recorded during the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2020.

Note 3 – Securities

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

Proceeds from the sale and call of available-for-sale securities were as follows:

The income tax provision related to the net realized gain amounted to $2 for the three- and six-month periods ended December 31, 2020. The income tax provision related to the net realized gains amounted to $1 and $22 for the three- and six-month periods ended December 31, 2019, respectively.

The amortized cost and fair values of debt securities at December 31, 2020, by expected maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Securities not due at a single maturity date, primarily mortgage-backed securities, are shown separately. 

The following table summarizes the securities with unrealized losses at December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position:

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The securities portfolio is evaluated for OTTI by segregating the portfolio into two general segments and applying the appropriate OTTI model. Investment securities are generally evaluated for OTTI under FASB ASC Topic 320, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.

In determining OTTI under the ASC Topic 320 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

The unrealized losses within the securities portfolio as of December 31, 2020 have not been recognized into income because the decline in fair value is not attributed to credit quality and management does not intend to sell, and it is not likely that management will be required to sell, the securities prior to their anticipated recovery. The decline in fair value within the securities portfolio is largely due to increases in mortgage backed and collateralized mortgage obligations prepayment speeds impacting the yield on bonds that were purchased at a premium. The mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations were primarily issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae, institutions which the government has affirmed its commitment to support. The Corporation does not own any private label mortgage-backed securities.

Note 4 – Loans

Major classifications of loans were as follows:

The commercial loan category in the above table includes PPP loans of $52,539 as of December 31, 2020 and $66,606 as of June 30, 2020 and a mortgage loan warehouse line of credit to another financial institution with an outstanding balance of $47,268 as of December 31, 2020 and $32,869 as of June 30, 2020. The outstanding balance of the warehouse line of credit can fluctuate significantly based on the other financial institution’s funding needs.
