Note 4. Loans and Asset Quality Information

 

The loans and foreclosed real estate that were acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions are covered by loss share agreements between the FDIC and the Company’s banking subsidiary, First Bank, which afford First Bank significant loss protection - see Note 2 to the financial statements included in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K for detailed information regarding these transactions. Because of the loss protection provided by the FDIC, the risk of the loans and foreclosed real estate that are covered by loss share agreements are significantly different from those assets not covered under the loss share agreements. Accordingly, the Company presents separately loans subject to the loss share agreements as “covered loans” in the information below and loans that are not subject to the loss share agreements as “non-covered loans.”

 

The following is a summary of the major categories of total loans outstanding:

  December 31, 2013     December 31, 2012  
    Amount     Percentage     Amount     Percentage  
All loans (non-covered and covered):                                
                                 
Commercial, financial, and agricultural   $ 168,469       7%     $ 160,790       7%  
Real estate – construction, land development & other land loans     305,246       12%       298,458       13%  
Real estate – mortgage – residential (1-4 family) first mortgages     838,862       34%       815,281       34%  
Real estate – mortgage – home equity loans / lines of credit     227,907       9%       238,925       10%  
Real estate – mortgage – commercial and other     855,249       35%       789,746       33%  
Installment loans to individuals     66,533       3%       71,933       3%  
    Subtotal     2,462,266       100%       2,375,133       100%  
Unamortized net deferred loan costs     928               1,324          
    Total loans   $ 2,463,194             $ 2,376,457          

 

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, net loans include an unamortized premium of $98,000 and $485,000, respectively, related to acquired loans.

 

At December 31, 2012, the Company also had $30 million classified as “loans held for sale” that are not included in the loan balances disclosed above or in the disclosures presented in the remainder of Note 4. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company identified approximately $68 million of non-covered higher-risk loans that it targeted for sale to a third-party investor. Based on an offer to purchase these loans received prior to year-end, the Company wrote the loans down by approximately $38 million to their estimated liquidation value of approximately $30 million and reclassified them as “loans held for sale.” The sale of the loans was completed in January 2013 with the Company receiving sales proceeds of approximately $30 million.

 

Loans in the amount of $1.8 billion were pledged as collateral for certain borrowings as of both December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (see Note 10).

 

The loans above also include loans to executive officers and directors serving the Company at December 31, 2013 and to their associates, totaling approximately $5.9 million and $6.1 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During 2013, additions to such loans were approximately $0.9 million and repayments totaled approximately $1.1 million. These loans were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other non-related borrowers. Management does not believe these loans involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

 

The following is a summary of the major categories of non-covered loans outstanding:

The following table presents information regarding covered purchased nonimpaired loans since December 31, 2011. The amounts include principal only and do not reflect accrued interest as of the date of the acquisition or beyond.

Carrying amount of nonimpaired covered loans at December 31, 2013   $ 207,167  

 

As reflected in the table above, the Company accreted $20,200,000 and $16,466,000 of the loan discount on purchased nonimpaired loans into interest income during 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, there was remaining loan discount of $31,569,000 related to purchased accruing loans. If these loans continue to be repaid by the borrowers, the Company will accrete the remaining loan discount into interest income over the estimate lives of the respective loans, which are generally consistent with the terms of the respective loss share agreements. In such circumstances, a corresponding entry to reduce the indemnification asset will be recorded amounting to 80% of the loan discount accretion, which reduces noninterest income. At December 31, 2013, the Company also had $8,038,000 of loan discount related to purchased nonperforming loans. It is not expected that a significant amount of this discount will be accreted, as it represents estimated losses on these loans. An additional $15,797,000 in partial charge-offs have been recorded on purchased loans outstanding at December 31, 2013.

 

The following table presents information regarding all purchased impaired loans since December 31, 2011, substantially all of which are covered loans. The Company has applied the cost recovery method to all purchased impaired loans at their respective acquisition dates due to the uncertainty as to the timing of expected cash flows, as reflected in the following table.

Each of the purchased impaired loans is on nonaccrual status and considered to be impaired. Because of the uncertainty of the expected cash flows, the Company is accounting for each purchased impaired loan under the cost recovery method, in which all cash payments are applied to principal. Thus, there is no accretable yield associated with the above loans. During 2013 and 2012, the Company received $62,000 and $0, respectively, in payments that exceeded the initial carrying amount of the purchased impaired loans, which is included in the loan discount accretion amount discussed previously.

 

Nonperforming assets are defined as nonaccrual loans, restructured loans, loans past due 90 or more days and still accruing interest, nonperforming loans held for sale, and foreclosed real estate. Nonperforming assets are summarized as follows:

(1) At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the contractual balance of the nonaccrual loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements was $60.4 million and $64.4 million, respectively.

 

If the nonaccrual and restructured loans as of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 had been current in accordance with their original terms and had been outstanding throughout the period (or since origination if held for part of the period), gross interest income in the amounts of approximately $5,262,000, $7,689,000, and $8,724,000 for nonaccrual loans and $2,674,000, $2,392,000, and $1,873,000 for restructured loans would have been recorded for 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. Interest income on such loans that was actually collected and included in net income in 2013, 2012 and 2011 amounted to approximately $1,414,000, $2,824,000, and $2,578,000 for nonaccrual loans (prior to their being placed on nonaccrual status), and $1,681,000, $1,179,000, and $1,351,000 for restructured loans, respectively. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had no commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose loans were nonperforming.

 

The remaining tables in this note present information derived from the Company’s allowance for loan loss model. Relevant accounting guidance requires certain disclosures to be disaggregated based on how the Company develops its allowance for loan losses and manages its credit exposure. This model combines loan types in a different manner than the tables previously presented.

Interest income recorded on non-covered and covered impaired loans during the year ended December 31, 2012 is considered insignificant.

 

The Company tracks credit quality based on its internal risk ratings. Upon origination a loan is assigned an initial risk grade, which is generally based on several factors such as the borrower’s credit score, the loan-to-value ratio, the debt-to-income ratio, etc. Loans that are risk-graded as substandard during the origination process are declined. After loans are initially graded, they are monitored monthly for credit quality based on many factors, such as payment history, the borrower’s financial status, and changes in collateral value. Loans can be downgraded or upgraded depending on management’s evaluation of these factors. Internal risk-grading policies are consistent throughout each loan type.

 

The following describes the Company’s internal risk grades in ascending order of likelihood of loss:

 

  Numerical Risk Grade Description
Pass:  
  1 Cash secured loans.
  2 Non-cash secured loans that have no minor or major exceptions to the lending guidelines.
  3 Non-cash secured loans that have no major exceptions to the lending guidelines.
Weak Pass:  
  4 Non-cash secured loans that have minor or major exceptions to the lending guidelines, but the exceptions are properly mitigated.
Watch or Standard:  
  9 Loans that meet the guidelines for a Risk Graded 5 loan, except the collateral coverage is sufficient to satisfy the debt with no risk of loss under reasonable circumstances.  This category also includes all loans to insiders and any other loan that management elects to monitor on the watch list.
Special Mention:  
  5 Existing loans with major exceptions that cannot be mitigated.
Classified:  
  6 Loans that have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize the liquidation of the debt if deficiencies are not corrected.
  7 Loans that have a well-defined weakness that make the collection or liquidation improbable.
  8 Loans that are considered uncollectible and are in the process of being charged-off.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

 

The restructuring of a loan is considered a “troubled debt restructuring” if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the creditor has granted a concession. Concessions may include interest rate reductions or below market interest rates, principal forgiveness, restructuring amortization schedules and other actions intended to minimize potential losses.

 

The vast majority of the Company’s troubled debt restructurings modified during the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 related to interest rate reductions combined with restructured amortization schedules. The Company does not generally grant principal forgiveness.

 

All loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are considered to be impaired and are evaluated as such for determination of the allowance for loan losses. The Company’s troubled debt restructurings can be classified as either nonaccrual or accruing based on the loan’s payment status. The troubled debt restructurings that are nonaccrual are reported within the nonaccrual loan totals presented previously.

 

The following table presents information related to loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

As part of a routine regulatory exam that concluded in the third quarter of 2012, the Company reclassified approximately $30 million of performing loans to TDR status during the second and third quarters of 2012. Because these loans were restructured prior to January 1, 2012 they are not included in the tables above. Also, in connection with an anticipated planned asset disposition, the Company recorded $6 million in charge-offs to write-down the TDRs to their estimated liquidation value at December 31, 2012, and reclassified approximately $5 million of TDRs to the “nonperforming loans held for sale” category as of December 31, 2012.

 

Accruing restructured loans that were modified in the previous 12 months and that defaulted during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 are presented in the table below. The Company considers a loan to have defaulted when it becomes 90 or more days delinquent under the modified terms, has been transferred to nonaccrual status, or has been transferred to foreclosed real estate.
