Commitments and Contingent Liabilities Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Under ASC 450, the Company accrues for a loss contingency when the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. The Company discloses the matter if a material loss is at least reasonably possible. Under ASC 450, a loss contingency is “reasonably possible” if “the chance of the future event or events occurring is more than remote but less than likely”, and a loss contingency is “remote” if “the chance of the future event or events occurring is slight.” We evaluate, on a quarterly basis, developments in legal proceedings with respect to accruals, as well as the estimated range of possible losses.
From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal proceedings incidental to their business in the ordinary course, including matters in which damages in various amounts are claimed, as well as regulatory and governmental investigations and inquiries that could result in penalties, fines or other sanctions against the Company. Based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that the liabilities (if any) resulting from such matters will have a material effect on the financial position or liquidity of the Company. However, considering inherent uncertainties involved in such matters, ongoing legal expenses or an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could materially and adversely affect the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period, as well as its reputation.
The Company is cooperating with an ongoing investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania into, among other things, the Company’s anti-money laundering controls between approximately 2011 and 2017 and the Company’s relationship with a former customer who pleaded guilty to a charge of bank fraud in 2020. Due to the inherent uncertainty in predicting the outcome of a pending investigation, we are unable to estimate reasonably possible losses, if any, resulting from this matter.
As previously disclosed, the Company maintains director and officer insurance policies ("D&O Insurance Policies") that provide coverage for certain legal defense costs. When claims are covered by D&O Insurance Policies, the Company records a corresponding receivable against the incurred legal defense cost expense when the claim is paid. When D&O Insurance Policies are exhausted, the Company is responsible for paying the defense cost associated with any investigations and litigations for itself and on behalf of any current and former Officers and Directors entitled to indemnification from the Company. The Company cannot predict with any certainty the amount of defense costs that the Company may incur in the future in connection with currently ongoing and any future investigations and legal proceedings, as they are dependent on various factors, many of which are outside of the Company's control.
