Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-2, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis,” which (1) modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities; (2) eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership; (3) affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities involved with VIEs that have fee arrangements and related party relationships and (4) provides a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. Upon adoption, ASU 2015-2 provides for transition through either a full retrospective approach or a modified retrospective approach, which requires restatement as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. ASU 2015-2 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those annual periods with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact the guidance is expected to have on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In January 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-04, “Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure.” The ASU clarifies when an in-substance repossession or foreclosure occurs and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan. Specifically, the new ASU requires a creditor to reclassify a collateralized consumer mortgage loan to real estate property upon obtaining legal title to the real estate collateral, or the borrower voluntarily conveying all interest in the real estate property to the lender to satisfy the loan through a deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar legal agreement. Additional disclosures are required detailing the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and the recorded investment in consumer mortgages collateralized by real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure. The new guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, but resulted in additional disclosures. See Note 4, “Credit Quality,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this report.
Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisitions and Divestitures

On December 12, 2014, the Company completed the sale of thirteen branches to CresCom Bank (“CresCom”), Charleston, South Carolina. The divestiture consisted of ten branches in the Southeastern, Coastal region of North Carolina and three branches in South Carolina, all of which were previously acquired in the FDIC-assisted acquisition of Waccamaw Bank (“Waccamaw”). At closing, CresCom assumed total deposits of $215.19 million and total loans of $70.04 million. The transaction excluded loans covered under FDIC loss share agreements. The Company recorded a net gain of $755 thousand in connection with the divestiture, which included a deposit premium received from CresCom of $6.45 million and goodwill allocation of $6.45 million.

On October 24, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of seven branches from Bank of America, National Association. At acquisition, the branches had total deposits of $318.88 million. The Company assumed the deposits for a premium of $5.79 million. No loans were included in the purchase. Additionally, the Company purchased the real estate or assumed the leases associated with the branches. The acquisition expanded the Company’s presence by six branches in Southwestern Virginia and one branch in Central North Carolina.
Earnings per Common Share

Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of potential common stock that could be issued by the Company. In accordance with the treasury stock method of accounting, potential common stock could be issued for stock options, nonvested restricted stock awards, performance based stock awards, and convertible preferred stock. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the number of dilutive potential common shares. The calculation of diluted earnings per common share excludes potential common shares that have an exercise price greater than the average market value of the Company’s common stock because the effect would be antidilutive.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the periods indicated:
