Note 15: Derivatives and Hedging Activities | NOTE 15: DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its assets and liabilities. In the normal course of business, the Company may use derivative financial instruments (primarily interest rate swaps) from time to time to assist in its interest rate risk management. The Company has interest rate derivatives that result from a service provided to certain qualifying loan customers that are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Company’s assets or liabilities and are not designated in a qualifying hedging relationship. The Company manages a matched book with respect to its derivative instruments in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. In addition, the Company has interest rate derivatives that are designated in a qualified hedging relationship. Nondesignated Hedges The Company has interest rate swaps that are not designated in qualifying hedging relationships. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Company provides to certain loan customers, which the Company began offering during 2011. The Company executes interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting interest rate swaps that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate swaps associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings. As part of the Valley Bank FDIC-assisted acquisition, the Company acquired seven loans with related interest rate swaps. Valley’s swap program differed from the Company’s in that Valley did not have back to back swaps with the customer and a counterparty. Two of the seven acquired loans with interest rate swaps have paid off. The notional amount of the five remaining Valley swaps was $3.4 million at June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017, excluding the Valley Bank swaps, the Company had 26 interest rate swaps totaling $111.1 million in notional amount with commercial customers, and 26 interest rate swaps with the same notional amount with third parties related to its program. As of December 31, 2016, excluding the Valley Bank swaps, the Company had 26 interest rate swaps totaling $110.7 million in notional amount with commercial customers, and 26 interest rate swaps with the same notional amount with third parties related to its program. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized net losses of $20,000 and $75,000, respectively, in noninterest income related to changes in the fair value of these swaps. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized net losses of $13,000 and $237,000, respectively, in noninterest income related to changes in the fair value of these swaps. Cash Flow Hedges As a strategy to maintain acceptable levels of exposure to the risk of changes in future cash flows due to interest rate fluctuations, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement for a portion of its floating rate debt associated with its trust preferred securities. The agreement, with a notional amount of $25 million, states that the Company will pay interest on its trust preferred debt in accordance with the original debt terms at a rate of 3-month LIBOR + 1.60%. Should interest rates rise above a certain threshold, the counterparty will reimburse the Company for interest paid such that the Company will have an effective interest rate on that portion of its trust preferred securities no higher than 2.37%. The agreement became effective on August 1, 2013, and had a term of four years. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $-0- in noninterest income related to changes in the fair value of these derivatives. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $96,000 and $49,000, respectively, in interest expense related to the amortization of the cost of these interest rate caps. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $183,000 and $89,000, respectively, in interest expense related to the amortization of the cost of these interest rate caps. The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition:

Agreements with Derivative Counterparties The Company has agreements with its derivative counterparties. If the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. If the Bank fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. Similarly, the Company could be required to settle its obligations under certain of its agreements if certain regulatory events occurred, such as the issuance of a formal directive, or if the Company’s credit rating is downgraded below a specified level. As of June 30, 2017, the termination value of derivatives in a net liability position, which included accrued interest but excluded any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $1.6 million. The Company has minimum collateral posting thresholds with its derivative counterparties. At June 30, 2017, the Company’s activity with its derivative counterparties met the level in which the minimum collateral posting thresholds take effect and the Company posted $4.1 million of collateral to satisfy the agreements. As of December 31, 2016, the termination value of derivatives in a net liability position, which included accrued interest but excluded any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $1.6 million. At December 31, 2016, the Company’s activity with its derivative counterparties met the level in which the minimum collateral posting thresholds take effect and the Company posted $6.0 million of collateral to satisfy the agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at the termination value.
