Note 4. Loans and Asset Quality Information

 

Prior to September 22, 2016, the Company’s banking subsidiary, First Bank, had certain loans and foreclosed real estate that were covered by loss share agreements between the FDIC and First Bank which afforded 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 FDIC-assisted purchase transactions. On July 1, 2014, the loss share provisions associated with non-single family assets related to the 2009 failed bank acquisition of Cooperative Bank expired. On April 1, 2016, the loss share provisions associated with non-single family assets related to the 2011 failed bank acquisition of The Bank of Asheville expired. On September 22, 2016, the Company terminated all of the loss share agreements with the FDIC, such that all future losses and recoveries on loans and foreclosed real estate associated with the failed banks acquired through FDIC-assisted transactions will be borne solely by First Bank. As a result of the termination of the agreements, the Company recorded a charge of $5.7 million, which primarily related to the write-off of the remaining indemnification asset associated with the agreements, and is included in the indemnification asset expense amount of $10.3 million in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

In the information presented below, the term “covered” is used to describe assets that were subject to FDIC loss share agreements, while the term “non-covered” refers to the Company’s legacy assets, which were not included in any type of loss share arrangement. As discussed previously, all loss share agreements were terminated during 2016 and thus the entire loan portfolio is now classified as non-covered. Certain prior period disclosures will continue to present the breakout of the loan portfolio between covered and non-covered.

 

As a result of the termination of all loss share agreements, the remaining balances associated with those loans and foreclosed real estate were reclassified from the covered portfolio to the non-covered portfolio. Balances related to the expired agreements and the termination of all remaining agreements as of the respective dates is as follows:

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

Unamortized net deferred loan costs (fees)   (49)        873      
    Total loans  $2,710,712        $2,518,926      

 

Loans in the amount of $2.4 billion and $2.0 billion were pledged as collateral for certain borrowings as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively (see Note 10).

 

The loans above also include loans to executive officers and directors serving the Company at December 31, 2016 and to their associates, totaling approximately $2.6 million and $3.6 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During 2016 additions to such loans were approximately $0.3 million and repayments totaled approximately $1.3 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 loans outstanding allocated to the non-covered and covered loan portfolios for periods when the FDIC loss share agreements were in effect at December 31, 2015. There were no covered loans at December 31, 2016.

As a result of the termination of the FDIC loss share agreements during the third quarter of 2016, there were no covered loans at December 31, 2016. The follow presents the carrying amount of the covered loans at December 31, 2015 detailed by impaired and nonimpaired purchased loans (as determined on the date of the acquisition):

The following table presents information regarding covered purchased nonimpaired loans since December 31, 2014. The amounts include principal only and do not reflect accrued interest as of the date of the acquisition or beyond. All balances of covered loans were transferred to non-covered as of the termination of the loss share agreements.

As reflected in the table above, the Company accreted $1,908,000 of the loan discount on covered purchased nonimpaired loans into interest income during 2016 prior to the termination of the loss share agreements. Total loan discount accretion for all loans amounted to $4,451,000, $4,751,000 and $16,009,000 for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2016, there was a remaining loan discount of $11,258,000 related to purchased accruing loans, which is expected to be accreted into interest income over the lives of the respective loans. At December 31, 2016, the Company also had $795,000 of loan discount related to purchased nonaccruing loans, which the Company does not expect will be accreted into income.

 

The following table presents information regarding all purchased impaired loans since December 31, 2014. 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.

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 2016, the Company received $1,160,000 in payments that exceeded the carrying amount of the related purchased impaired loans, of which $786,000 was recognized as discount accretion loan interest income and $374,000 was recorded as additional loan interest income. During 2015, the Company received $332,000 in payments that exceeded the carrying amount of the related purchased impaired loans, of which $275,000 was recognized as discount accretion loan interest income and $57,000 was recorded as additional loan interest income.

 

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) All FDIC loss share agreements were terminated effective September 22, 2016 and, accordingly, assets previously covered under those agreements became non-covered on that date.

 

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had $1.7 million and $2.5 million in residential mortgage loans in process of foreclosure, respectively.

 

If the nonaccrual and restructured loans as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 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 $1,893,000, $3,213,000, and $4,115,000 for nonaccrual loans and $1,417,000, $2,044,000, and $3,045,000, for restructured loans would have been recorded for 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. Interest income on such loans that was actually collected and included in net income in 2016, 2015 and 2014 amounted to approximately $266,000, $575,000, and $1,176,000 for nonaccrual loans (prior to their being placed on nonaccrual status), and $423,000, $1,392,000, and $2,003,000 for restructured loans, respectively. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose loans were nonperforming.

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 regularly 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:

 

  Risk Grade Description
Pass:  
  1 Loans with virtually no risk, including cash secured loans.
  2 Loans with documented significant overall financial strength.  These loans have minimum chance of loss due to the presence of multiple sources of repayment – each clearly sufficient to satisfy the obligation.
  3 Loans with documented satisfactory overall financial strength.  These loans have a low loss potential due to presence of at least two clearly identified sources of repayment – each of which is sufficient to satisfy the obligation under the present circumstances.
  4 Loans to borrowers with acceptable financial condition.  These loans could have signs of minor operational weaknesses, lack of adequate financial information, or loans supported by collateral with questionable value or marketability.  
  5 Loans that represent above average risk due to minor weaknesses and warrant closer scrutiny by management.  Collateral is generally available and felt to provide reasonable coverage with realizable liquidation values in normal circumstances.  Repayment performance is satisfactory.
 

P

(Pass)

Consumer loans (<$500,000) that are of satisfactory credit quality with borrowers who exhibit good personal credit history, average personal financial strength and moderate debt levels.  These loans generally conform to Bank policy, but may include approved mitigated exceptions to the guidelines.  
Special Mention:  
  6 Existing loans with defined weaknesses in primary source of repayment that, if not corrected, could cause a loss to the Bank.
Classified:  
  7 An existing loan inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any.  These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt.
  8 Loans that have a well-defined weakness that make the collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable.  Loss appears imminent, but the exact amount and timing is uncertain.
  9 Loans that are considered uncollectible and are in the process of being charged-off.  This grade is a temporary grade assigned for administrative purposes until the charge-off is completed.
 

F

(Fail)

Consumer loans (<$500,000) with a well-defined weakness, such as exceptions of any kind with no mitigating factors, history of paying outside the terms of the note, insufficient income to support the current level of debt, etc.  

 

In the second quarter of 2016, the Company made nonsubstantive changes to the numerical scale of risk grades. Previously, the description for grade 5 noted above was assigned a grade of 9. As a result of the change, most grade 9 loans were assigned a grade of 5 and the numerical grade assignments for the previous grades of 5 and below were moved one row lower in the descriptions. In the tables below, prior periods have been adjusted to be consistent with the presentation for December 31, 2016.

 

Also during the second quarter of 2016, the Company introduced a pass/fail grade system for smaller balance consumer loans (balances less than $500,000), primarily residential home loans and installment consumer loans. Accordingly, all such consumer loans are no longer graded on a scale of 1-9, but instead are assigned a rating of “pass” or “fail”, with “fail” loans being considered as classified loans. As of the implementation of the revised grade definitions, there were approximately $29.7 million of consumer loans that had previously been assigned grade of “special mention” and were assigned a rating of “pass”, which impacts the comparability of the December 31, 2016 table below to prior periods.

 

The changes noted above had no significant impact on the Company’s allowance for loan loss calculation.

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, 2016 and 2015 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, 2016 and 2015.
