Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1.) | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

Financial Institutions, Inc. (the “Company”) is a financial holding company organized in 1931 under the laws of New York State (“New York”). The Company provides diversified financial services through its subsidiaries, Five Star Bank, SDN Insurance Agency, LLC (“SDN”), Courier Capital, LLC (“Courier Capital”) and HNP Capital, LLC (“HNP Capital”). The Company offers a broad array of deposit, lending and other financial services to individuals, municipalities and businesses in Western and Central New York through its wholly-owned New York chartered banking subsidiary, Five Star Bank (the “Bank”). The Bank also has indirect lending network relationships with franchised automobile dealers in the Capital District of New York and Northern and Central Pennsylvania. SDN provides a broad range of insurance services to personal and business clients. Courier Capital and HNP Capital provide customized investment management, investment consulting and retirement plan services to individuals, businesses, institutions, foundations and retirement plans.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounting and reporting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated statements of financial condition, income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods indicated and contain adequate disclosure to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year.

Allowance for Credit Losses

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 amends guidance on reporting credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the reserve for credit losses. In addition, entities need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the modified retrospective approach. Results for the periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. The Company recorded a net reduction of retained earnings of $8.7 million upon adoption. The transition adjustment includes an increase in credit-related reserves of $9.6 million, $14 thousand, and $2.1 million for loans, held to maturity investment securities and unfunded commitments, respectively, net of the corresponding increase in deferred tax assets of $3.0 million.

The allowance for credit losses is evaluated on a regular basis and established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for credit losses. When a loan or portion of a loan is determined to be uncollectible, the portion deemed uncollectible is charged against the allowance and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

| a. | Portfolio Segmentation (“Pooled Loans”)

Portfolio segmentation is defined as the pooling of loans based upon similar risk characteristics such that quantitative methodologies and qualitative adjustment factors for estimating the allowance for credit losses is constructed for each segment. The Company has identified six portfolio segments of loans including Commercial Loans/Lines, Commercial Mortgage, Indirect Loans, Direct Loans, Residential Lines of Credit, and Residential Loans

The allowance for credit losses for Pooled Loans estimate is based upon periodic review of the collectability of the loans quantitatively correlating historical loan experience with reasonable and supportable forecasts using forward looking information. Adjustments to the quantitative evaluation may be made for differences in current or expected qualitative risk characteristics such as changes in: underwriting standards, delinquency level, regulatory environment, economic condition, Company management and the status of portfolio administration including the Company’s Loan Review function.

| b. | Individually Evaluated Loans

The Company establishes a specific reserve for individually evaluated loans which do not share similar risk characteristics with the loans included in the forecasted allowance for credit losses. These individually evaluated loans are removed from the pooling approach discussed above for the forecasted allowance for credit losses, and include nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), and other loans deemed appropriate by management.

| c. | Held to Maturity (“HTM”) Debt Securities

The Company’s HTM debt securities are also required to utilize the current expected credit losses approach to estimate expected credit losses. The Company’s HTM debt securities included securities that are issued by U.S. government or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. These securities carry the explicit and/or implicit guarantee of the U.S. government, are widely recognized as “risk free,” and have a long history of zero credit loss. The Company also carries a portfolio of HTM municipal bonds. The Company measures its allowance for credit losses on HTM debt securities on a collective basis by major security type. The estimate is based on historical credit losses, if any, adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company considers the nature of the collateral, potential future changes in collateral values and available loss information.

| d. | Available for Sale (“AFS”) Debt Securities

For AFS securities in an unrealized loss position, we first assess whether (i) we intend to sell, or (ii) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either case is affirmative, any previously recognized allowances are charged-off and the security's amortized cost is written down to fair value through income. If neither case is affirmative, the security is evaluated to determine whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income. Adjustments to the allowance are reported in our income statement as a component of credit loss expense. AFS securities are charged-off against the allowance or, in the absence of any allowance, written down through income when deemed uncollectible by management or when either of the aforementioned criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

| e. | Accrued Interest Receivable

Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments on January 1, 2020, the Company made the following elections regarding accrued interest receivable:

| • | Presenting accrued interest receivable balances separately within another line item on the statement of financial condition.

| • | Excluding accrued interest receivable that is included in the amortized cost of financing receivables and debt securities from related disclosure requirements.

| • | Continuing our policy to write off accrued interest receivable by reversing interest income. For commercial loans, the write off typically occurs upon becoming 90 days past due. For consumer loans, the write off typically occurs upon becoming 120 days past due. Historically, the Company has not experienced uncollectible accrued interest receivable on its investment securities. However, the Company would generally write off accrued interest receivable by reversing interest income if the Company does not reasonably expect to receive payments. Due to the timely manner in which accrued interest receivables are written off, the amounts of such write offs are immaterial.

| • | Not measuring an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable due to the Company’s policy of writing off uncollectible accrued interest receivable balances in a timely manner, as described above.

| f. | Reserve for Unfunded Commitments

The reserve for unfunded commitments (the “Unfunded Reserve”) represents the expected credit losses on off-balance sheet commitments such as unfunded commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. However, a liability is not recognized for commitments unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The Unfunded Reserve is recognized as a liability (other liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial condition), with adjustments to the reserve recognized as a provision for credit loss expense in the consolidated statements of income. The Unfunded Reserve is determined by estimating expected future fundings, under each segment, and applying the expected loss rates. Expected future fundings are based on historical averages of funding rates (i.e., the likelihood of draws taken). To estimate future fundings on unfunded balances, current funding rates are compared to historical funding rates.

Operating, Accounting and Reporting Considerations related to COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, including our operating footprint of Western and Central New York. In response to this crisis, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was passed by Congress and signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provides an estimated $2.2 trillion to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and stimulate the economy by supporting individuals and businesses through loans, grants, tax changes, and other types of relief. Some of the provisions applicable to the Company include, but are not limited to:

| • | Accounting for Loan Modifications - The CARES Act provides that a financial institution may elect to suspend (1) the application of GAAP for certain loan modifications related to COVID-19 that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR and (2) any determination that such loan modifications would be considered a TDR, including the related impairment for accounting purposes.

| • | Paycheck Protection Program - The CARES Act established the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), an expansion of the Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) 7(a) loan program and the Economic Injury Disaster Loan Program (“EIDL”), administered directly by the SBA.

| • | Mortgage Forbearance - Under the CARES Act, through the earlier of December 31, 2020, or the termination date of the COVID-19 national emergency, a borrower with a federally backed mortgage loan that is experiencing financial hardship due to COVID-19 may request a forbearance.

Also, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRB”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the National Credit Union Administration (“NCUA”), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”), in consultation with the state financial regulators (collectively, the “agencies”) issued a joint interagency statement (issued March 22, 2020; revised statement issued April 7, 2020). Some of the provisions applicable to the Company include, but are not limited to:

| • | Accounting for Loan Modifications - Loan modifications that do not meet the conditions of the CARES Act may still qualify as a modification that does not need to be accounted for as a TDR. The agencies confirmed with FASB staff that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or insignificant delays in payment.

| • | Past Due Reporting - With regard to loans not otherwise reportable as past due, financial institutions are not expected to designate loans with deferrals granted due to COVID-19 as past due because of the deferral. A loan’s payment date is governed by the due date stipulated in the legal agreement. If a financial institution agrees to a payment deferral, these loans would not be considered past due during the period of the deferral.

| • | Nonaccrual Status and Charge-offs - During short-term COVID-19 modifications, these loans generally should not be reported as nonaccrual or as classified.

Effective March 23, 2020 through July 9, 2020, for consumer customers, the Bank waived early CD penalty fees for withdrawals up to $20,000 (limited to one penalty-free withdrawal per CD account); eliminated all insufficient funds (overdrafts) and returned item fees; eliminated all Pay by Phone fees; waived all late fees; offered the opportunity for monthly mortgage, home equity loan or home equity line payment relief; offered the opportunity to defer unsecured consumer loans or lines of credit and secured consumer loans and lines of credit payments; and offered unsecured personal loans up to $5,000, up to 60 months at 2.95% APR subject to credit approval (additional terms and conditions may apply).

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of previously reported amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications did not impact net income or shareholders’ equity as previously reported.

Subsequent Events

On July 17, 2020, the Bank announced management’s decision to adapt to a full-service branch model to streamline retail branches to better align with shifting customer needs and preferences. The transformation will result in six branch closures and a reduction in staffing. The announcement was the result of a nine-month comprehensive assessment of all lines of business and functional areas, conducted in partnership with a leading process improvement organization. The data-driven analysis identified, among other things, overlapping service areas, automation opportunities and streamlining of processes and operations that would enhance customer experiences and facilitate the long-term sustainability of current and future branches. The announced consolidations represent about ten percent of the branch network and will impact approximately six percent of the total Company workforce. Where possible, those impacted were offered alternative roles or the opportunity to apply for open positions in other areas of the Company. Separated associates will receive a comprehensive severance package based on tenure. The Company expects to complete a substantial majority of these actions by December 31, 2020.

The Company expects to incur total pre-tax expense related to the branch closures of approximately $1.7 million, including approximately $0.2 million in employee severance, $0.6 million in lease termination costs and $0.9 million in valuation adjustments on branch facilities. The Company expects $0.8 million of total costs will result in future cash expenditures. The Company expects to recognize the majority of these expenses during the third quarter of 2020, with the remainder incurred by the end of 2020.

The Company anticipates annual expense savings of approximately $2.6 million as a result of these branch closures.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the carrying value of goodwill and deferred tax assets, and assumptions used in the defined benefit pension plan accounting.

Cash Flow Reporting

Supplemental cash flow information is summarized as follows for the six months ended June 30 (in thousands):

|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Supplemental information: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments. With respect to Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, ASU 2019-04 clarifies that the reclassification of a debt security from Held to Maturity (“HTM”) to Available for Sale (“AFS”) under the transition guidance in ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) – Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, would not (1) call into question the classification of other HTM securities, (2) be required to actually designate any reclassified security in a last-of-layer hedge, or (3) be restricted from selling any reclassified security. As part of the transition of ASU 2019-04, entities may reclassify securities that would qualify for designation as the hedged item in a last-of-layer hedging relationship from HTM to AFS; however, entities that already made such a reclassification upon their adoption of ASU 2017-12 are precluded from reclassifying additional securities. The Company did not reclassify any securities from HTM to AFS upon adoption of ASU 2017-12. The Company elected to early adopt the amendments to Topic 815 in December 2019, resulting in the reclassification of $26.2 million of qualified investment securities from HTM to AFS. With respect to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, ASU 2019-04 clarifies the scope of the credit losses standard and addresses issues related to accrued interest receivable balances, recoveries, variable interest rates and prepayments, among other things. With respect to Topic 825, Financial Instruments, on recognizing and measuring financial instruments, ASU 2019-04 addresses the scope of the guidance, the requirement for remeasurement under ASC 820 (Fair Value Measurement) when using the measurement alternative, certain disclosure requirements and which equity securities have to be remeasured at historical exchange rates. The amendments to Topic 326 and the amendments to Topic 825, under ASU 2019-04, were adopted as of January 1, 2020 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Securities Available for Sale

As of June 30, 2020, no allowance for credit losses has been recognized on available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position as management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. This is based upon our analysis of the underlying risk characteristics, including credit ratings, and other qualitative factors related to our available for sale securities and in consideration of our historical credit loss experience and internal forecasts. The issuers of these securities continue to make timely principal and interest payments under the contractual terms of the securities. Furthermore, management does not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available for sale in the table above and believes that it is more likely than not that we will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline.

Securities Held to Maturity

The Company’s HTM investment securities include debt securities that are issued by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. These securities carry the explicit and/or implicit guarantee of the U.S. government, are widely recognized as “risk free,” and have a long history of zero credit loss. In addition, the Company’s HTM investment securities include debt securities that are issued by state and local government agencies, or municipal bonds.

The Company monitors the credit quality of our municipal bonds through the use of a credit rating agency or by ratings that are derived by an internal scoring model. The scoring methodology for the internally derived ratings is based on a series of financial ratios for the municipality being reviewed as compared to typical industry figures. This information is used to determine the financial strengths and weaknesses of the municipality, which is indicated with a numeric rating. This number is then converted into a letter rating to better match the system used by the credit rating agencies. As of June 30, 2020, $159.3 million of our municipal bonds were rated as an equivalent to Standard & Poor’s A/AA/AAA, with $8.7 million internally rated to be the equivalent of Standard & Poor’s A/AA/AAA rating. Additionally, one municipal bond is rated below investment grade, with a BB+ Standard & Poor’s equivalent rating. The below investment grade bond was recently upgraded from a Standard & Poor’s equivalent rating of BB-, represents exposure of $279 thousand, or 0.17% of the municipal bond portfolio and is closely monitored for repayment.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had no past due or nonaccrual held to maturity investment securities.

The Company had $268.5 million of PPP loans (included in Commercial business above) as of June 30, 2020. In addition, the CARES Act provides that a financial institution may elect to suspend (1) the application of GAAP for certain loan modifications related to COVID-19 that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR and (2) any determination that such loan modifications would be considered a TDR, including the related impairment for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company had $522.2 million of loans with modifications related to COVID-19 as of June 30, 2020.

The Company elected to exclude AIR from the amortized cost basis of loans disclosed throughout this footnote. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, AIR for loans totaled $10.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively, and is included in other assets on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A modification of a loan constitutes a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the modification constitutes a concession. Commercial loans modified in a TDR may involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, reducing the interest rate for the remaining term of the loan, extending the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, collateral concessions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance agreements, or substituting or adding a new borrower or guarantor.

The following presents, by loan class, information related to loans modified in a TDR during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

|  | Quarter-to-Date |  |  | Year-to-Date |
|  | Number of Contracts |  |  | Pre- Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment |  |  | Post- Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment |  |  | Number of Contracts |  |  | Pre- Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment |  |  | Post- Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment |

The loan restructured during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was on nonaccrual status at the end of the period, with the modifications primarily related to collateral concessions. Nonaccrual loans that are restructured remain on nonaccrual status, but may move to accrual status after they have performed according to the restructured terms for a period of time. The TDR classifications did not have a material impact on the Company’s determination of the allowance for credit losses – loans because the modified loans were evaluated for a specific reserve both before and after restructuring.

There were no loans modified as a TDR within the previous 12 months that defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. For purposes of this disclosure, a loan modified as a TDR is considered to have defaulted when the borrower becomes 90 days past due.

Collateral Dependent Loans

Management has determined that specific commercial loans on nonaccrual status and all loans that have had their terms restructured in a troubled debt restructuring where repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral to be collateral dependent loans. The following table presents the amortized cost basis of collateral dependent loans by collateral type as of June 30, 2020 (in thousands):

|  | Collateral type |  |  |  |  |

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors such as the fair value of collateral. The Company analyzes commercial business and commercial mortgage loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. Risk ratings are updated any time the situation warrants. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention: Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Company’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard: Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful: Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans that do not meet the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the process described above are considered “uncriticized” or pass-rated loans and are included in groups of homogeneous loans with similar risk and loss characteristics.

The following table sets forth the Company’s commercial loan portfolio, categorized by internally assigned asset classification, as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

Risk Characteristics

Commercial business loans primarily consist of loans to small to mid-sized businesses in our market area in a diverse range of industries. These loans are of higher risk and typically are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business. Further, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value. The credit risk related to commercial loans is largely influenced by general economic conditions, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on small to mid-sized business in our market area, and the resulting impact on a borrower’s operations or on the value of underlying collateral, if any.

Commercial mortgage loans generally have larger balances and involve a greater degree of risk than residential mortgage loans, potentially resulting in higher potential losses on an individual customer basis. Loan repayment is often dependent on the successful operation and management of the properties, as well as on the collateral securing the loan. Economic events, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the ability of the tenants to pay rent at these properties, or conditions in the real estate market could have an adverse impact on the cash flows generated by properties securing the Company’s commercial real estate loans and on the value of such properties.

Residential real estate loans (comprised of conventional mortgages and home equity loans) and residential real estate lines (comprised of home equity lines) are generally made based on the borrower’s ability to make repayment from his or her employment and other income but are secured by real property whose value tends to be more easily ascertainable. Credit risk for these types of loans is generally influenced by general economic conditions, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the employment income of these borrowers, the characteristics of individual borrowers, and the nature of the loan collateral.

Consumer indirect and other consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than residential mortgage loans and home equities, particularly in the case of other consumer loans which are unsecured or, in the case of indirect consumer loans, secured by depreciable assets, such as automobiles. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances such as job loss, illness or personal bankruptcy, including the heightened risk that such circumstances may arise as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans.

(5.) | LEASES

ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), establishes a right of use model that requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The Company is obligated under a number of non-cancellable operating lease agreements for land, buildings and equipment with terms, including renewal options reasonably certain to be exercised, extending through 2047. One building lease is subleased for terms extending through 2021.

The following table represents the consolidated statements of financial condition classification of the Company’s right of use assets and lease liabilities:

|  |  |  | June 30, |  |  | December 31, |
|  | Balance Sheet Location |  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Operating Lease Right of Use Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Gross carrying amount |  | Other assets |  | $ | 23,626 |  |  | $ | 23,224 |

Operating Lease Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Right of use lease obligations |  | Other liabilities |  | $ | 22,327 |  |  | $ | 22,800 |

The weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 21.5 years at June 30, 2020 and the weighted-average discount rate used in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was 3.79%. The Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate at lease inception, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term for the discount rate.

The following table represents lease costs and other lease information:

|  | Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |

(5.) | LEASES (Continued)

Future minimum payments under non-cancellable operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more, are as follows at June 30, 2020 (in thousands):

Twelve months ended June 30, |  |  |

Total future minimum operating lease payments |  | 34,616 |
Amounts representing interest |  | (12,289 | )
Present value of net future minimum operating lease payments | $ | 22,327 |

(6.)GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

The carrying amount of goodwill totaled $66.1 million as of both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company performs a goodwill impairment test on an annual basis as of October 1st or more frequently if events and circumstances warrant.

|  | Banking |  |  | Non-Banking |  |  | Total |
Balance, December 31, 2019 |  | $ | 48,536 |  |  | $ | 17,526 |  |  | $ | 66,062 |
No activity during the period |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Balance, June 30, 2020 |  | $ | 48,536 |  |  | $ | 17,526 |  |  | $ | 66,062 |

Goodwill is not amortized but, instead, is subject to impairment tests on at least an annual basis, and more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Based on the volatility in the capital markets in 2020 and overall economic conditions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic accompanied by a decline in the Company’s stock price, a goodwill impairment test was performed in the second quarter of 2020. Based on its qualitative assessment, the Company concluded that it was not more likely than not that goodwill was impaired as of June 30, 2020. Therefore, no quantitative assessment was deemed necessary as of June 30, 2020.

Other Intangible Assets

The Company has other intangible assets that are amortized, consisting of core deposit intangibles and other intangibles (primarily related to customer relationships). Gross carrying amount, accumulated amortization and net book value, were as follows (in thousands):

|  | June 30, |  |  | December 31, |
|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Other intangibles assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Gross carrying amount |  | $ | 15,925 |  |  | $ | 15,925 |
Accumulated amortization |  |  | (7,645 | ) |  |  | (7,064 | )
Net book value |  | $ | 8,280 |  |  | $ | 8,861 |

Amortization expense for total other intangible assets was $287 thousand and $581 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $316 thousand and $639 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the estimated amortization expense of other intangible assets for the remainder of 2020 and each of the next five years is as follows (in thousands):

2020 (remainder of year) | $ | 553 |
2021 |  | 1,014 |
2022 |  | 923 |
2023 |  | 852 |
2024 |  | 783 |
2025 |  | 714 |

(7.)DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENT 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, and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate caps and interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium. During the first six months of 2020 and in 2019, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with short-term borrowings. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions over a period of approximately 60 months. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had one outstanding forward starting interest rate derivative with a notional value of $50.0 million that was designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk. The derivative becomes effective in April 2022.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s borrowings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company’s cash flow hedge derivatives did not have any hedge ineffectiveness recognized in earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $438 thousand will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company executes interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. These 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 hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain one or more of the following provisions: (a) if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including a default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations, and (b) if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives

The Company extends rate lock agreements to borrowers related to the origination of residential mortgage loans. To mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in these rate lock agreements when the Company intends to sell the related loan, once originated, as well as closed residential mortgage loans held for sale, the Company enters into forward commitments to sell individual residential mortgages. Rate lock agreements and forward commitments are considered derivatives and are recorded at fair value.

(10.)SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company maintains certain share-based compensation plans, approved by the Company’s shareholders, that are administered by the Management Development and Compensation Committee (the “MD&C Committee”) of the Board. The share-based compensation plans were established to allow for the grant of compensation awards to attract, motivate and retain employees, executive officers and non-employee directors who contribute to the long-term growth and profitability of the Company and to give such persons a proprietary interest in the Company, thereby enhancing their personal interest in the Company’s success.

The MD&C Committee approved the grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”) shown in the table below to certain members of management during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

|  | Number of Underlying Shares |  |  | Weighted Average Per Share Grant Date Fair Value |
RSUs |  |  | 57,306 |  |  | $ | 25.67 |
PSUs |  |  | 23,302 |  |  |  | 25.63 |

The grant-date fair value for the RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2020 is equal to the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of the dividends expected to be paid on the underlying shares.

Fifty percent of the PSUs that ultimately vest is contingent on achieving specified return on average equity (“ROAE”) targets relative to the SNL Small Cap Bank & Thrift Index, a market index the MD&C Committee has selected as a peer group for this purpose. These shares will be earned based on the Company’s achievement of a relative ROAE performance requirement, on a percentile basis, compared to the SNL Small Cap Bank & Thrift Index over a three-year performance period ended December 31, 2022. The shares earned based on the achievement of the ROAE performance requirement, if any, will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date assuming the recipient’s continuous service to the Company. The remaining fifty percent of the PSUs that ultimately vest is contingent upon achievement of an average return on average assets (“ROAA”) performance requirement over a three-year performance period ended December 31, 2022. The shares earned based on the achievement of the ROAA performance requirement, if any, will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date assuming the recipient’s continuous service to the Company.

The grant-date fair values for both the ROAE and the ROAA portions of PSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2020 are equal to the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of the dividends expected to be paid on the underlying shares.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued a total of 5,403 shares of common stock in-lieu of cash for the annual retainer of four non-employee directors and granted a total of 12,798 restricted shares of common stock to non-employee directors, of which 6,399 shares vested immediately and 6,399 shares will vest after completion of a one-year service requirement. The market value of the stock and restricted stock at the close of the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the date of grant was $17.57.

The following is a summary of restricted stock awards and restricted stock units activity for the six months ended June 30, 2020:

|  | Number of Shares |  |  | Weighted Average Market Price at Grant Date |
Outstanding at beginning of year |  |  | 151,808 |  |  | $ | 27.80 |
Granted |  |  | 93,406 |  |  |  | 24.55 |
Vested |  |  | (33,433 | ) |  |  | 28.88 |
Forfeited |  |  | (30,482 | ) |  |  | 28.43 |
Outstanding at end of period |  |  | 181,299 |  |  | $ | 25.82 |

At June 30, 2020, there was $3.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards and restricted stock units that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

(1 0.)SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS (Continued)

The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation method to estimate the fair value of its stock option awards. There were no stock options awarded during the first six months of 2020 or 2019. There was no unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options as of June 30, 2020. There was no stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The Company amortizes the expense related to share-based compensation awards over the vesting period. Share-based compensation expense is recorded as a component of salaries and employee benefits in the consolidated statements of income for awards granted to management and as a component of other noninterest expense for awards granted to directors. The share-based compensation expense included in the consolidated statements of income, is as follows (in thousands):

|  | Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |
|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |  |  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Salaries and employee benefits |  | $ | 228 |  |  | $ | 310 |  |  | $ | 532 |  |  | $ | 461 |
Other noninterest expense |  |  | 141 |  |  |  | 143 |  |  |  | 169 |  |  |  | 174 |
Total share-based compensation expense |  | $ | 369 |  |  | $ | 453 |  |  | $ | 701 |  |  | $ | 635 |

(11.)EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The components of the Company’s net periodic benefit expense for its pension and post-retirement obligations were as follows (in thousands):

|  | Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |
|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |  |  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Service cost |  | $ | 923 |  |  | $ | 802 |  |  | $ | 1,846 |  |  | $ | 1,604 |
Interest cost on projected benefit obligation |  |  | 635 |  |  |  | 695 |  |  |  | 1,270 |  |  |  | 1,390 |
Expected return on plan assets |  |  | (1,284 | ) |  |  | (1,184 | ) |  |  | (2,568 | ) |  |  | (2,368 | )
Amortization of unrecognized prior service credit |  |  | (9 | ) |  |  | (17 | ) |  |  | (18 | ) |  |  | (33 | )
Amortization of unrecognized net actuarial loss |  |  | 323 |  |  |  | 366 |  |  |  | 646 |  |  |  | 732 |
Net periodic benefit expense |  | $ | 588 |  |  | $ | 662 |  |  | $ | 1,176 |  |  | $ | 1,325 |

The net periodic benefit expense is recorded as a component of salaries and employee benefits in the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s funding policy is to contribute, at a minimum, an actuarially determined amount that will satisfy the minimum funding requirements determined under the appropriate sections of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company has no minimum required contribution for the 2020 fiscal year.

(12.)COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk established in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk extending beyond amounts recognized in the financial statements.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved with extending loans to customers. The Company uses the same credit underwriting policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance sheet instruments.

Off-balance sheet commitments consist of the following (in thousands):

|  | June 30, 2020 |  |  | December 31, 2019 |
Commitments to extend credit |  | $ | 926,730 |  |  | $ | 820,282 |
Standby letters of credit |  |  | 22,929 |  |  |  | 21,911 |

(1 2.)COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the agreement. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses which may require payment of a fee. Commitments may expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if any, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Standby letters of credit are conditional lending commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments totaled $2.6 million and $0, respectively, and was included in other liabilities on the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, credit loss expense for unfunded commitments was $5 thousand and $0, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, credit loss expense for unfunded commitments was $498 thousand and $0, respectively.

In the ordinary course of business, there are various threatened and pending legal proceedings against the Company. Management believes that the aggregate liability, if any, arising from such litigation would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(13.)FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Determination of Fair Value – Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring and Nonrecurring Basis

Valuation Hierarchy

The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell that asset or paid to transfer that liability in an orderly transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market) for such asset or liability. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. There have been no changes in the valuation techniques used during the current period. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

| • | Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

| • | Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.

| • | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recorded as of the end of the reporting period.

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality and the Company’s creditworthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. Furthermore, the reported fair value amounts have not been comprehensively revalued since the presentation dates, and therefore, estimates of fair value after the balance sheet date may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. A more detailed description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

Securities available for sale: Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Derivative instruments: The fair value of derivative instruments is determined using quoted secondary market prices for similar financial instruments and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Loans held for sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is determined using quoted secondary market prices and investor commitments. Loans held for sale are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

(1 3.)FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

Collateral dependent loans: Fair value of collateral dependent loans with specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses – loans is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable and collateral value is determined based on appraisals performed by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Company. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business. Such discounts are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Collateral dependent loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.

Loan servicing rights: Loan servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable market data. As a result, the Company estimates the fair value of loan servicing rights by using a discounted cash flow model to calculate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model are those that we believe market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of loan prepayment rates, servicing costs, ancillary income, impound account balances, and discount rates. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s loan servicing rights are the constant prepayment rates and weighted average discount rate. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Although the constant prepayment rate and the discount rate are not directly interrelated, they will generally move in opposite directions. Loan servicing rights are classified as Level 3 measurements due to the use of significant unobservable inputs, as well as significant management judgment and estimation.

Other real estate owned (foreclosed assets): Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate owned are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification. The appraisals are sometimes further discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business. Such discounts are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

Commitments to extend credit and letters of credit: Commitments to extend credit and fund letters of credit are principally at current interest rates, and, therefore, the carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of commitments is not material.

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The assumptions used below are expected to approximate those that market participants would use in valuing these financial instruments.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about the financial instrument, including estimates of timing, amount of expected future cash flows and the credit standing of the issuer. Such estimates do not consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or losses. In some cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets. In addition, the disclosed fair value may not be realized in the immediate settlement of the financial instrument. Care should be exercised in deriving conclusions about our business, its value or financial position based on the fair value information of financial instruments presented below.

The estimated fair value approximates carrying value for cash and cash equivalents, Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) stock, accrued interest receivable, non-maturity deposits, short-term borrowings and accrued interest payable.

The following presents (in thousands) the carrying amount, estimated fair value, and placement in the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments as of the dates indicated.

(14.)SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has two reportable segments: Banking and Non-Banking. These reportable segments have been identified and organized based on the nature of the underlying products and services applicable to each segment, the type of customers to whom those products and services are offered and the distribution channel through which those products and services are made available.

The Banking segment includes all of the Company’s retail and commercial banking operations. The Non-Banking segment includes the activities of SDN, a full-service insurance agency that provides a broad range of insurance services to both personal and business clients, and Courier Capital and HNP Capital, our investment advisor and wealth management firms that provide customized investment management, investment consulting and retirement plan services to individuals, businesses, institutions, foundations and retirement plans. Holding company amounts are the primary differences between segment amounts and consolidated totals and are reflected in the Holding Company and Other column below, along with amounts to eliminate balances and transactions between segments.

The following tables present information regarding our business segments as of and for the periods indicated (in thousands).

GENERAL

The Parent is a financial holding company headquartered in New York State, providing diversified financial services through its subsidiaries, Five Star Bank (the “Bank”), SDN Insurance Agency, LLC (“SDN”), Courier Capital, LLC (“Courier Capital”) and HNP Capital, LLC (“HNP Capital”). The Company offers a broad array of deposit, lending and other financial services to individuals, municipalities and businesses in Western and Central New York through its wholly-owned New York-chartered banking subsidiary, the Bank. Our indirect lending network includes relationships with franchised automobile dealers in Western and Central New York, the Capital District of New York and Northern and Central Pennsylvania. SDN provides a broad range of insurance services to personal and business clients. Courier Capital and HNP Capital provide customized investment advice, wealth management, investment consulting and retirement plan services to individuals, businesses, institutions, foundations and retirement plans.

Our primary sources of revenue are net interest income (interest earned on our loans and securities, net of interest paid on deposits and other funding sources) and noninterest income, particularly fees and other revenue from insurance, investment advisory and financial services provided to customers or ancillary services tied to loans and deposits. Business volumes and pricing drive revenue potential, and tend to be influenced by overall economic factors, including market interest rates, business spending, consumer confidence, economic growth, and competitive conditions within the marketplace. We are not able to predict market interest rate fluctuations with certainty and our asset/liability management strategy may not prevent interest rate changes from having a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our business strategy has been to maintain a community bank philosophy, which consists of focusing on and understanding the individualized banking and other financial needs of individuals, municipalities and businesses of the local communities surrounding our primary service area. We believe this focus allows us to be more responsive to our customers’ needs and provide a high level of personal service that differentiates us from larger competitors, resulting in long-standing and broad-based banking relationships. Our core customers are primarily small- to medium-sized businesses, individuals and community organizations who prefer to build banking, insurance and wealth management relationships with a community bank that combines high quality, competitively-priced products and services with personalized service. Because of our identity and origin as a locally operated bank, we believe that our level of personal service provides a competitive advantage over larger banks, which tend to consolidate decision-making authority outside local communities.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

A key aspect of our current business strategy is to foster a community-oriented culture where our customers and employees establish long-standing and mutually beneficial relationships. We believe that we are well-positioned to be a strong competitor within our market area because of our focus on community banking needs and customer service, our comprehensive suite of deposit, loan, insurance and wealth management products typically found at larger banks, our highly experienced management team and our strategically located banking centers. We have evolved to meet changing customer needs by opening what we refer to as financial solution center branches. These financial solution center branche s have a smaller footprint than our traditional branches, focus on technology to provide solutions that fit our customer preferences for transacting business with us, and are staffed by certified personal bankers who are trained to meet a broad array of customer needs. In recent years, we have opened four financial solution centers in the Rochester and Buffalo markets. We believe that the foregoing factors all help to grow our core deposits, which supports a central element of our business strategy - the growth of a diversified and high-quality loan portfolio.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Summary of 2020 Second Quarter Results

Net income decreased $269 thousand, or 2%, to $11.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $11.4 million for the second quarter of 2019. Net income available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2020 was $10.8 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, compared with $11.0 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the second quarter of last year. Return on average common equity was 10.05% and return on average assets was 0.97% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 11.12% and 1.06%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2019.

Second quarter results were negatively impacted by a higher provision for credit losses of $3.7 million, as compared to $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2019. The higher provision was driven by the adoption of the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) standard and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economic environment.

Net interest income totaled $34.2 million in the second quarter of 2020, up from $32.5 million in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily the result of a change in the interest-earning asset mix as loans became a larger percentage of the portfolio. Average loans were up $270.5 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter in 2019.

The provision for credit losses - loans was $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2019. Net charge-offs during the recent quarter were $786 thousand, down from $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2019. Net charge-offs expressed as an annualized percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.09% during the second quarter of 2020 compared with 0.16% in the second quarter of 2019. See the “Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans” and “Non-Performing Assets and Potential Problem Loans” sections of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis for further discussion regarding the increase in the provision for credit losses - loans and the decrease in net charge-offs.

Noninterest income totaled $9.8 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $9.2 million in the second quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily attributed to increases in income from derivative instruments, net, and net gain on investment securities, partially offset by a decrease in service charges on deposits. Income from derivative instruments of $1.9 million was recognized in the second quarter of 2020 driven primarily by an increase in the number and value of interest rate swap transactions executed. The Company sold investment securities during the second quarter of 2020 generating a net gain of $674 thousand as compared to a net gain of $166 thousand in the second quarter of 2019. The Company recognized $480 thousand in service charges on deposits in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2019 as a result of the Company’s COVID-19 relief initiatives of waiving or eliminating fees, implemented on March 23, 2020.

Noninterest expense in the second quarter of 2020 totaled $26.7 million compared with $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2019. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily the result of increases in salaries and employee benefits and professional services. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was primarily a result of incentive compensation, the full quarter impact of annual merit increases, COVID-19-related incremental pay to front-line retail associates, expenses related to the departure of a senior officer and higher medical expenses during the second quarter of 2020. The increase in professional services was primarily related to the timing of fees for consulting and advisory projects.

The regulatory Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio were 10.27%, and 12.83%, respectively, at June 30, 2020. See the “Liquidity and Capital Management” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis for further discussion regarding regulatory capital and the Basel III capital rules.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Operational, Accounting and Reporting Impacts R elated to COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, including our operating footprint of Western and Central New York. In response to this crisis, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was passed by Congress and signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provides an estimated $2.2 trillion to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and stimulate the economy by supporting individuals and businesses through loans, grants, tax changes, and other types of relief. Some of the provisions applicable to the Company include, but are not limited to:

| • | Accounting for Loan Modifications - The CARES Act provides that a financial institution may elect to suspend (1) the application of GAAP for certain loan modifications related to COVID-19 that would otherwise be categorized as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) and (2) any determination that such loan modifications would be considered a TDR, including the related impairment for accounting purposes.

| • | Paycheck Protection Program - The CARES Act established the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), an expansion of the Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) 7(a) loan program and the Economic Injury Disaster Loan Program (“EIDL”), administered directly by the SBA.

| • | Mortgage Forbearance - Under the CARES Act, through the earlier of December 31, 2020, or the termination date of the COVID-19 national emergency, a borrower with a federally backed mortgage loan that is experiencing financial hardship due to COVID-19 may request a forbearance.

Also, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRB”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the National Credit Union Administration (“NCUA”), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”), in consultation with the state financial regulators (collectively, the “agencies”) issued a joint interagency statement (issued March 22, 2020; revised statement issued April 7, 2020). Some of the provisions applicable to the Company include, but are not limited to:

| • | Accounting for Loan Modifications - Loan modifications that do not meet the conditions of the CARES Act may still qualify as a modification that does not need to be accounted for as a TDR. The agencies confirmed with FASB staff that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or insignificant delays in payment.

| • | Past Due Reporting - With regard to loans not otherwise reportable as past due, financial institutions are not expected to designate loans with deferrals granted due to COVID-19 as past due because of the deferral. A loan’s payment date is governed by the due date stipulated in the legal agreement. If a financial institution agrees to a payment deferral, these loans would not be considered past due during the period of the deferral.

| • | Nonaccrual Status and Charge-offs - During short-term COVID-19 modifications, these loans generally should not be reported as nonaccrual or as classified.

Effective March 23, 2020 through July 9, 2020, for consumer customers, the Bank waived early CD penalty fees for withdrawals up to $20,000 (limited to one penalty-free withdrawal per CD account); eliminated all insufficient funds (overdrafts) and returned item fees; eliminated all Pay by Phone fees; waived all late fees; offered the opportunity for monthly mortgage, home equity loan or home equity line payment relief; offered the opportunity to defer unsecured consumer loans or lines of credit and secured consumer loans and lines of credit payments; and offered unsecured personal loans up to $5,000, up to 60 months at 2.95% APR subject to credit approval (additional terms and conditions may apply).

Business customers are being faced with challenging and unique circumstances. The Bank’s relationship bankers are highly skilled in providing tailored financial solutions designed to meet the specific, individual needs of each business and they are actively reaching out to each business customer to understand how the Bank can help, given each unique business circumstance.

As of July 20, 2020, we have helped more than 1,700 customers obtain more than $270 million in loans through the PPP. Additionally, approximately 22% of our commercial loan and mortgage customers, 5% of our residential real estate loans and lines customers and 11% of our indirect loans customers have received payment deferrals.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income is our primary source of revenue, comprising 77% of revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net interest income is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and interest expense on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowings used to fund interest-earning and other assets or activities. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and by the amount and composition of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the sensitivity of the balance sheet to changes in interest rates, including characteristics such as the fixed or variable nature of the financial instruments, contractual maturities and repricing frequencies.

Table of Contents

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

We use interest rate spread and net interest margin to measure and explain changes in net interest income. Interest rate spread is the difference between the yield on earning assets and the rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities that fund those assets. The net interest margin is expressed as the percentage of net interest income to average earning assets. The net interest margin exceeds the interest rate spread because noninterest-bearing sources of funds (“net free funds”), principally noninterest-b earing demand deposits and share holders’ equity, also support earning assets. To compare tax-exempt asset yields to taxable yields, the yield on tax-exempt investment securities is computed on a taxable equivalent basis. Net interest income, interest rate spread, and net interest margin are discussed on a taxable equivalent basis.

The following table reconciles interest income per the consolidated statements of income to interest income adjusted to a fully taxable equivalent basis (dollars in thousands):

|  | Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |
|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |  |  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |

Analysis of Net Interest Income for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis for the three months ended June 30, 2020, was $34.4 million, an increase of $1.7 million versus the comparable quarter last year of $32.8 million. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to an increase in average loans of $270.5 million, or 9%, compared to the second quarter of 2019, partially offset by a decrease in investment securities of $79.0 million, or 9%, compared to the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in investment securities is primarily the result of the redeployment of assets from investment securities into loans, resulting in loans comprising a higher percentage of total interest-earning assets.

Our net interest margin for the second quarter of 2020 was 3.23%, five-basis points lower than 3.28% for the same period in 2019. This comparable period decrease was a function of a 12-basis point lower contribution from net free funds, partially offset by a seven-basis point increase in the interest rate spread. The higher interest rate spread was a result of a 53-basis point decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets and a 60-basis point decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities.

For the second quarter of 2020, the yield on average interest earning assets of 3.76% was 53-basis points lower than the second quarter of 2019 of 4.29%. Loan yields decreased 68 basis points during the second quarter of 2020 to 4.14% from 4.82%. The yield on investment securities increased ten-basis points during the second quarter of 2020 to 2.48% from 2.38%. Overall, the earning asset rate changes decreased interest income by $5.6 million during the second quarter of 2020 and a favorable volume variance increased interest income by $2.6 million, which collectively drove a $2.9 million decrease in interest income.

Average interest-earning assets were $4.27 billion for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $4.01 billion for the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $265.5 million, or 7%, from the comparable quarter last year, with average loans up $270.5 million from $3.14 billion to $3.41 billion and average securities down $79.0 million from $845.6 million to $766.6 million. The growth in average loans reflected increases in the commercial loans and residential real estate loans categories. Commercial loans, in particular, were up $303.0 million from $1.59 billion to $1.89 billion, or 19%, from the second quarter of 2019. The increase in commercial loans was primarily driven by the PPP loans. Residential real estate loans were up $41.3 million, partially offset by a decrease of $8.3 million in residential real estate lines. Consumer indirect loans and other consumer loans decreased by $64.9 million and $566 thousand, respectively. Loans comprised 79.9% of average interest-earning assets during the second quarter of 2020 compared to 78.4% during the second quarter of 2019. Loans generally have significantly higher yields compared to securities and federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits and, as such, have a more positive effect on the net interest margin. The yield on average loans was 4.14% for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 68-basis points compared to 4.82% for the comparable quarter in 2019. An unfavorable rate variance resulted in a $5.6 million decrease in interest income, partially offset by an increase of $3.0 million due to the increase in the volume of average loans. Securities represented 17.9% of average interest-earning assets during the second quarter of 2020 compared to 21.1% during the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in the volume of average securities resulted in a $482 thousand decrease in interest income, partially offset by a $212 thousand increase due to the favorable rate variance.

The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities of 0.71% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 1.31% in the second quarter of 2019, was 60-basis points lower. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased 45-basis points from 1.07% to 0.62% and the cost of short-term borrowings decreased 168-basis points from 2.71% to 1.03% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter of 2019. The decrease in the cost of short-term borrowings was a result of decreases in the federal funds rate. The cost of long-term borrowings for the second quarter of 2020 decreased one-basis point from 6.30% to 6.29% compared to the same quarter of 2019. Overall, interest-bearing liability rate and volume decreases resulted in $4.6 million of lower interest expense.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

A verage interest-bearing liabilities of $3.1 8 billion in the second quarter of 20 20 were $59.5 million, or 2%, higher than the second quarter of 201 9. On average, interest-bearing deposits grew $2 72.6 million from $2.75 billion to $3.03 billion, and noninterest-bearing demand deposits (a principal component of net free funds) were up $198.0 million from $7 14.2 million to $912.2 million. The increase in average depo sits was driven by PPP loan proceeds, successful business development efforts in retail banking, an increase in reciprocal deposit programs, and higher utilization of brokered deposits as a funding source. For further discussion of the reciprocal deposit programs, refer to the “Funding Activities - Deposits” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis. Overall, interest-bearing deposit rate and volume changes resulted in a $2.7 million de crease in interest expense during the second quarter of 20 20. Average borrowings de creased $213.1 million from $362.7 million to $149.6 million compared to the second quarter of 201 9. Overall, short and long-term borrowing rate and volume changes resulted in $1.9 million of lower interest expense during the second quarter of 20 20.

Analysis of Net Interest Income for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis for the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $67.8 million, an increase of $2.9 million versus the comparable period last year of $64.8 million. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to an increase in average earning assets of $161.6 million or 4% compared to the first six months of 2019.

The net interest margin for the first six months of 2020 was 3.27%, one-basis point higher than 3.26% for the same period in 2019. This comparable period increase was a function of an eight-basis point increase in interest rate spread, partially offset by a seven-basis point lower contribution from net free funds. The higher interest rate spread was a result of a 39-basis point decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities and a 31-basis point decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets.

For the first six months of 2020, the yield on average earning assets of 3.95% was 31-basis points lower than the first six months of 2019 of 4.26%. Loan yields decreased 43-basis points during the first six months of 2020 to 4.37% from 4.80%. The yield on investment securities increased ten-basis points during the first six months of 2020 to 2.48% from 2.38%. Overall, the earning asset rate changes decreased interest income by $6.6 million during the first six months of 2020 and a favorable volume variance increased interest income by $3.7 million, which collectively drove a $2.9 million decrease in interest income.

Average interest-earning assets were $4.16 billion for the first six months of 2020 compared to $4.00 billion for the first six months of 2019, an increase of $161.6 million, or 4%, from the comparable period last year, with average loans up $196.8 million from $3.12 billion to $3.31 billion and average securities down $92.9 million from $866.1 million to $773.3 million. The growth in average loans reflected increases in the commercial loans and residential real estate loans categories. Commercial loans, in particular, were up $224.6 million from $1.56 billion to $1.78 billion, or 9%, from the first six months of 2019. Loans represented 79.6% of average interest-earning assets during the first six months of 2020 compared to 77.9% during the first six months of 2019. Loans generally have significantly higher yields compared to securities and federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits and, as such, have a more positive effect on the net interest margin. The yield on average loans was 4.37% for the first six months of 2020, a decrease of 43-basis points compared to 4.80% for first six months of 2019. An unfavorable rate variance resulted in a $6.8 million decrease in interest income, partially offset by an increase of $4.6 million due to the increase in the volume of average loans. Securities represented 18.6% of average interest-earning assets during first six months of 2020 compared to 21.6% during the first six months of 2019. The decrease in the volume of average securities resulted in a $1.1 million decrease in interest income, partially offset by a $443 thousand increase due to the favorable rate variance.

The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities of 0.90% in the first six months of 2020 compared to 1.29% in the first six months of 2019 was 39-basis points lower than the first six months of 2019. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased 26-basis points from 1.05% to 0.79% and the cost of short-term borrowings decreased 102-basis points from 2.71% to 1.69% in the first six months of 2020 compared to the same period of 2019. The decrease in the cost of short-term borrowings was a result of decreases in the federal funds rate. The cost of long-term borrowings for the first six months of 2020 decreased one-basis point from 6.30% to 6.29% in the first six months of 2020 compared to the same period of 2019. Overall, interest-bearing liability rate and volume decreases resulted in $5.8 million of lower interest expense.

Average interest-bearing liabilities of $3.16 billion in the first six months of 2020 were $49.8 million, or 2%, higher than the first six months of 2019. On average, interest-bearing deposits grew $244.6 million from $2.73 billion to $2.98 billion, and noninterest-bearing demand deposits (a principal component of net free funds) were up $96.4 million from $720.7 million to $817.1 million. The increase in average deposits was driven by PPP loans, successful business development efforts in retail banking, an increase in reciprocal deposit programs, and higher utilization of brokered deposits as a funding source. For further discussion of the reciprocal deposit programs, refer to the “Funding Activities - Deposits” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis. Overall, interest-bearing deposit rate and volume changes resulted in $2.5 million of lower interest expense during the first six months of 2020. Average borrowings decreased $194.8 million from $374.2 million to $179.3 million compared to the first six months of 2019.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.7 million and $17.2 million, respectively, compared to $2.4 million and $3.5 million for the corresponding periods in 2019. The increase was driven by the adoption of the CECL standard, higher net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2020 and deterioration in the economic environment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which adversely impacted our unemployment forecast, the designated loss driver for our CECL model. The increase in net charge-offs in the first six months of 2020 is primarily attributable to one commercial credit that was downgraded and partially charged-off during the first quarter of 2020. The borrower’s business was related to the hospitality industry and the downgrade and charge-off were precipitated by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The provision for credit losses - loans varies based primarily on forecasted unemployment rates, loan growth, net charge-offs, collateral values associated with collateral dependent loans and qualitative factors.

See the “Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans” and “Non-Performing Assets and Potential Problem Loans” sections of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis for further discussion.

Total noninterest income |  | $ | 9,832 |  |  | $ | 9,233 |  |  | $ | 19,794 |  |  | $ | 18,353 |

Service charges on deposits decreased $1.3 million, or 73%, to $480 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, service charges on deposits decreased $1.4 million, or 40%, to $2.1 million compared to $3.4 million for the first six months of 2019. The decreases were primarily due to our COVID-19 relief initiatives implemented on March 23, 2020, including waiving or eliminating certain fees.

Income (loss) from investments in limited partnerships decreased $388 thousand, to a loss of $244 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to income of $144 thousand for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, income (loss) from investments in limited partnerships decreased $407 thousand, to a loss of $31 thousand compared to income of $376 thousand for the first six months of 2019. We have investments in limited partnerships, primarily small business investment companies, and account for these investments under the equity method. The income from these equity method investments fluctuates based on the maturity and performance of the underlying investments.

Loan servicing income was $50 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to a $104 thousand for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, loan servicing income was $57 thousand compared to $214 thousand for the first six months of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the impact of lower interest rates on prepayment and refinancing activities in the mortgage service right (“MSR”) portfolio. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2020, we recognized a valuation write-down of the MSR portfolio due to the impact of lower interest rates on prepayment assumptions.

Income from derivative instruments, net increased $2.0 million to $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to a loss of $45 thousand for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, income from derivative instruments, net increased $2.6 million to $2.7 million compared to $123 thousand for the first six months of 2019. The increases were primarily the result of an increase in the number and value of interest rate swap transactions executed.

Net gain on investment securities was $674 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to a $166 thousand for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, net gain on investment securities was $895 thousand compared to $113 thousand for the first six months of 2019. The net gain in the current quarter is attributable to the management of premium risk achieved through the sale of $25.4 million of fixed rate mortgage backed securities with higher expected prepayment speeds. Proceeds were reinvested in current coupon bonds, with lower anticipated prepayment behavior.

Other noninterest income was $934 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to a $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, other noninterest income was $2.1 million compared to $2.6 million for the first six months of 2019. The decrease was due to lower pay-by-phone fees associated with our COVID-19 consumer relief initiatives, coupled with the impact of stay-at-home orders that reduced certain volume-based fees like merchant revenue and correspondent credit card fees. Our FHLB dividends have also declined year-over-year due to the lower level of FHLB borrowings in 2020 versus 2019.

Noninterest Expense

The following table details the major categories of noninterest expense for the periods presented (in thousands):

|  | Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |

Total noninterest expense |  | $ | 26,694 |  |  | $ | 25,003 |  |  | $ | 54,416 |  |  | $ | 50,174 |

Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $1.8 million, or 14%, to $15.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $13.2 million for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $2.8 million, or 10%, to $30.1 compared to $27.3 million for the first six months of 2019. The increases were primarily the result of incentive compensation (including producer incentives and commissions), annual merit increases, COVID-19-related incremental pay to front-line retail associates, expense related to the departure of a senior officer on June 26, 2020 and higher medical expense.

Professional services expense increased $648 thousand, or 70%, to $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $932 thousand for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, professional services expense increased $1.6 million, or 79%, to $3.7 million compared to $2.1 million for the first six months of 2019. The increase was primarily due to the timing of audit fees and fees for consulting and advisory projects, including fees related to the Bank’s derivative instruments program. Consulting fees related to our improvement initiatives totaled $353 thousand and $952 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $130 thousand and $213 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Advertising and promotions expense decreased $541 thousand, or 50%, to $545 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, advertising and promotions expense decreased $506 thousand, or 32%, to $1.1 million compared to $1.6 million for the first six months of 2019. Advertising and promotions expense was reduced in March 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic impacted operations in Western New York.

Other expense decreased $695 thousand, or 25%, to $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, other expense decreased $656 thousand, or 13%, to $4.4 million compared to $5.1 million for the first six months of 2019. The decreases were primarily due to lower education, travel and business development expenses as a result of the stay-at home orders implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with lower expense incurred in connection with indirect consumer lending activity, which was significantly lower in the second quarter of 2020.

Our efficiency ratio for the first six months of 2020 was 62.78% compared with 60.39% for the first six months of 2019. The higher efficiency ratio is a result of the higher noninterest expenses associated with our improvement initiatives and COVID-related impacts on noninterest income and noninterest expenses. The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing total noninterest expense by net revenue, defined as the sum of tax-equivalent net interest income and noninterest income before net gains on investment securities. An increase in the efficiency ratio indicates that more resources are being utilized to generate the same volume of income, while a decrease indicates a more efficient allocation of resources. The efficiency ratio, a banking industry financial measure, is not required by GAAP. However, the efficiency ratio is used by management in its assessment of financial performance specifically as it relates to noninterest expense control. Management also believes such information is useful to investors in evaluating Company performance.

Income Taxes

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded income tax expense of $2.8 million, versus $6.0 million for the same period in the prior year. In the first six months of 2020, the Company recognized tax credit investments resulting in a $393 thousand reduction in income tax expense and an $80 thousand net loss recorded in noninterest income.

Our effective tax rates for the first six months of 2020 and 2019 were 18.4% and 20.7%, respectively. Effective tax rates are typically impacted by items of income and expense that are not subject to federal or state taxation. Our effective tax rates reflect the impact of these items, which include, but are not limited to, interest income from tax-exempt securities and earnings on company owned life insurance. In addition, our effective tax rate for 2020 and 2019 reflects the New York State tax benefit generated by our real estate investment trust.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Impairment Assessment

For AFS securities in an unrealized loss position, we first assess whether (i) we intend to sell, or (ii) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either case is affirmative, any previously recognized allowances are charged-off and the security's amortized cost is written down to fair value through income. If neither case is affirmative, the security is evaluated to determine whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income. Adjustments to the allowance are reported in our income statement as a component of credit loss expense. AFS securities are charged-off against the allowance or, in the absence of any allowance, written down through income when deemed uncollectible by management or when either of the aforementioned criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 no allowance for credit losses has been recognized on AFS securities in an unrealized loss position as management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality.

Total loans increased $264.8 million to $3.49 billion at June 30, 2020 from $3.22 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in loans was primarily due to the PPP loans in our commercial business portfolio.

Commercial loans increased $280.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and represented 56.2% of total loans as of June 30, 2020 as a result of the PPP loans.

The consumer indirect portfolio totaled $828.1 million and represented 23.7% of total loans as of June 30, 2020. During the first six months of 2020, we originated $135.6 million in indirect auto loans with a mix of approximately 30% new auto and 70% used auto. During the first six months of 2019, we originated $158.5 million in indirect auto loans with a mix of approximately 33% new auto and 67% used auto. Our origination volumes and mix of new and used vehicles financed fluctuate depending on general market conditions.

Loans Held for Sale and Loan Servicing Rights

Loans held for sale (not included in the loan portfolio composition table) were entirely comprised of residential real estate loans and totaled $6.7 million and $4.2 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

We sell certain qualifying newly originated or refinanced residential real estate loans on the secondary market. Residential real estate loans serviced for others, which are not included in the consolidated statements of financial condition, amounted to $200.4 million and $189.8 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

The Company adopted CECL effective January 1, 2020, which resulted in an increase to the allowance for credit losses - loans of $9.6 million and established a reserve for unfunded commitments of $2.1 million, for a total pre-tax cumulative effect adjustment of $11.7 million.

The allowance for credit losses for Pooled Loans estimate is based upon periodic review of the collectability of the loans quantitatively correlating historical loan experience with reasonable and supportable forecasts using forward looking information. Adjustments to the quantitative evaluation may be made for differences in current or expected qualitative risk characteristics such as changes in: underwriting standards, delinquency level, regulatory environment, economic condition, Company management and the status of portfolio administration including the Company’s Loan Review function. The Company establishes a specific reserve for individually evaluated loans which do not share similar risk characteristics with the loans included in the forecasted allowance for credit losses. These individually evaluated loans are removed from the pooling approach discussed above for the forecasted allowance for credit losses, and include nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), and other loans deemed appropriate by management.

Assessing the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses - loans involves substantial uncertainties and is based upon management’s evaluation of the amounts required to meet estimated charge-offs in the loan portfolio after weighing a variety of factors, including the risk profile of our loan products and customers.

The adequacy of the allowance for credit losses - loans is subject to ongoing management review. While management evaluates currently available information in establishing the allowance for credit losses - loans, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review a financial institution’s allowance for credit losses - loans. Such agencies may require the financial institution to increase the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Net charge-offs of $786 thousand in the second quarter of 2020 represented 0.09% of average loans on an annualized basis compared to $1.2 million, or 0.16%, in the second quarter of 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net charge-offs of $10.9 million represented 0.66% of average loans, compared to $3.0 million or 0.20% of average loans for the same period in 2019. The in crease in n et charge-offs in the six months ended June 30, 2020 wa s primarily due to a n $8.2 million partial charge-off of a n $11.9 million commercial loan downgraded in the first quarter of 20 20. The borrower’s business was related to the hospitality industry and the downgrade and charge-off were precipitated by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The allowance for credit losses - loans was $4 6.3 million at June 30, 2020, compared with $30.5 million at December 31, 2019. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses -loans to total loans was 1.3 3% and 0.95% at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The ratio of allowance for credit losses - loans to non-performing loans was 3 51% at June 30, 2020, compared with 353% at December 31, 2019.

Non-Performing Assets and Potential Problem Loans

The table below summarizes our non-performing assets at the dates indicated (in thousands).

|  | Non-Performing Assets |
|  | June 30, 2020 |  |  | December 31, 2019 |
Nonaccrual loans: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Total nonaccrual loans |  |  | 13,125 |  |  |  | 8,634 |
Accruing loans 90 days or more delinquent |  |  | 57 |  |  |  | 6 |
Total non-performing loans |  |  | 13,182 |  |  |  | 8,640 |
Foreclosed assets |  |  | 679 |  |  |  | 468 |
Total non-performing assets |  | $ | 13,861 |  |  | $ | 9,108 |
Non-performing loans to total loans |  |  | 0.38 | % |  |  | 0.27 | %
Non-performing assets to total assets |  |  | 0.30 | % |  |  | 0.21 | %

Non-performing assets include non-performing loans and foreclosed assets. Non-performing assets at June 30, 2020 were $13.9 million, an increase of $4.8 million from the $9.1 million balance at December 31, 2019. The primary component of non-performing assets is non-performing loans, which were $13.2 million or 0.38% of total loans at June 30, 2020, compared with $8.6 million or 0.27% of total loans at December 31, 2019. The increase in non-performing loans in the six months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily due to an $11.9 million commercial loan downgraded, with $8.2 million charged-off, in the first quarter of 2020. The borrower’s business was related to the hospitality industry and the downgrade and charge-off were precipitated by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Approximately $1.5 million, or 12%, of the $13.1 million in non-performing loans as of June 30, 2020 were current with respect to payment of principal and interest but were classified as non-accruing because repayment in full of principal and/or interest was uncertain. Included in nonaccrual loans are TDRs of $3.4 million and $297 thousand at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. There were no TDRs accruing interest as of June 30, 2020 and one TDR of $550 thousand was accruing interest as of December 31, 2019.

Foreclosed assets consist of real property formerly pledged as collateral for loans, which we have acquired through foreclosure proceedings or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Foreclosed asset holdings represented two properties totaling $679 thousand at June 30, 2020 and three properties totaling $468 thousand at December 31, 2019.

Potential problem loans are loans that are currently performing, but information known about possible credit problems of the borrowers causes us to have concern as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan payment terms and may result in disclosure of such loans as nonperforming at some time in the future. These loans remain in a performing status due to a variety of factors, including payment history, the value of collateral supporting the credits, and/or personal or government guarantees. We consider loans classified as substandard, which continue to accrue interest, to be potential problem loans. We identified $9.9 million and $14.6 million in loans that continued to accrue interest which were classified as substandard as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

FUNDING ACTIVITIES

Deposits

The following table summarizes the composition of our deposits at the dates indicated (dollars in thousands):

|  | Deposit Composition |
|  | June 30, 2020 |  |  | December 31, 2019 |
|  | Amount |  |  | % of Total |  |  | Amount |  |  | % of Total |
Noninterest-bearing demand |  | $ | 1,008,958 |  |  |  | 25.3 | % |  | $ | 707,752 |  |  |  | 19.9 | %

Savings and money market |  |  | 1,368,805 |  |  |  | 34.3 |  |  |  | 1,039,892 |  |  |  | 29.2 |
Time deposits < $250,000 |  |  | 706,781 |  |  |  | 17.6 |  |  |  | 893,177 |  |  |  | 25.1 |
Time deposits of $250,000 or more |  |  | 181,788 |  |  |  | 4.6 |  |  |  | 287,012 |  |  |  | 8.1 |
Total deposits |  | $ | 3,994,008 |  |  |  | 100.0 | % |  | $ | 3,555,675 |  |  |  | 100.0 | %

We offer a variety of deposit products designed to attract and retain customers, with the primary focus on building and expanding long-term relationships. At June 30, 2020, total deposits were $3.99 billion, representing an increase of $438.3 million from December 31, 2019. The increase was driven by growth in nonpublic deposits and the reciprocal deposit portfolio. Time deposits were approximately 22% and 33% of total deposits at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Nonpublic deposits, the largest component of our funding sources, totaled $2.51 billion and $2.16 billion at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and represented 63% and 61% of total deposits as of the end of each period, respectively. The increase in nonpublic deposits was in part attributable to PPP loan proceeds received by customers. We have managed this segment of funding through a strategy of competitive pricing that minimizes the number of customer relationships that have only a single service high cost deposit account.

As an additional source of funding, we offer a variety of public (municipal) deposit products to the towns, villages, counties and school districts within our market. Public deposits generally range from 20% to 30% of our total deposits. There is a high degree of seasonality in this component of funding, because the level of deposits varies with the seasonal cash flows for these public customers. We maintain the necessary levels of short-term liquid assets to accommodate the seasonality associated with public deposits. Total public deposits were $899.4 million and $860.7 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and represented 23% and 24% of total deposits as of the end of each period, respectively. The decrease in public deposits during 2020 was due largely to seasonality.

We also participate in reciprocal deposit programs, which enable depositors to receive FDIC insurance coverage for deposits otherwise exceeding the maximum insurable amount. Through these programs, deposits in excess of the maximum insurable amount are placed with multiple participating financial institutions. Prior to the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (“EGRRCPA”) enacted on May 14, 2018, all reciprocal deposits were considered brokered deposits for regulatory reporting purposes. With the enactment of EGRRCPA, reciprocal deposits, subject to certain restrictions, are no longer required to be reported as brokered deposits. Reciprocal deposits totaled $220.6 million and $196.5 million, respectively, at June 30, 2020, compared to $157.9 million and $172.0 million, respectively, at December 31, 2019. Reciprocal deposits represented 10% and 9% of total deposits as of the end of each period, respectively.

Brokered deposits totaled $167.0 million and $208.8 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and represented 4% and 6% of total deposits as of the end of each period, respectively.

Borrowings

The Company classifies borrowings as short-term or long-term in accordance with the original terms of the applicable agreement. Outstanding borrowings consisted of the following as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

|  | June 30, |  |  | December 31, |
|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Short-term borrowings - FHLB |  | $ | 105,300 |  |  | $ | 275,500 |
Long-term borrowings - Subordinated notes, net |  |  | 39,308 |  |  |  | 39,273 |
Total borrowings |  | $ | 144,608 |  |  | $ | 314,773 |

Short-term Borrowings

Short-term Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings have original maturities of less than one year and include overnight borrowings which we typically utilize to address short term funding needs as they arise. Short-term FHLB borrowings at June 30, 2020 consisted of $105.3 million in short-term borrowings. The maximum amount of short-term FHLB borrowings outstanding at any month-end during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $198.9 million. Short-term FHLB borrowings at December 31, 2019 consisted of $10.0 million in overnight borrowings and $265.5 million in short-term borrowings.

Table of Contents

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

We have credit capacity with the FHLB and can borrow through facilities that include amortizing and term advances or repurchase agreements. We had approximately $142.8 million of immediate credit capacity with the FHLB as of June 30, 2020. We had approximately $614.0 million in secured borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) discount window, none of which was outstanding at June 30, 2020. The FHLB and FRB credit capacity are collateralized by securities from our investment portfolio and certain qualifying loans. We had approximately $1 4 5.0 million of credit available under unsecured federal funds purchased lines with various banks as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Additionally, we had approximately $176.3 million of unencumbered liquid securities available for pledging.

The Parent has a revolving line of credit with a commercial bank allowing borrowings up to $20.0 million in total as an additional source of working capital. At June 30, 2020, no amounts have been drawn on the line of credit.

Long-term Borrowings

On April 15, 2015, we issued $40.0 million of Subordinated Notes in a registered public offering. The Subordinated Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.0% per year, payable semi-annually, for the first 10 years. From April 15, 2025 to the April 15, 2030 maturity date, the interest rate will reset quarterly to an annual interest rate equal to the then-current three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 3.944%, payable quarterly. After the discontinuance of LIBOR, the interest rate will be determined by an alternate method as reasonably selected by the Company. The Subordinated Notes are redeemable by us at any quarterly interest payment date beginning on April 15, 2025 to maturity at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Proceeds, net of debt issuance costs of $1.1 million, were $38.9 million. The Subordinated Notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Liquidity

We continue to actively monitor our liquidity profile and funding concentrations in accordance with our Board approved Liquidity Policy. While funding pressures have not occurred, management is actively monitoring customer activity by way of commercial and consumer line of credit utilization, as well as deposit flows. As of June 30, 2020, all structural liquidity ratios and early warning indicators remain in compliance, with what we believe are ample funding sources available in the event of a stress scenario.

The objective of maintaining adequate liquidity is to assure that we meet our financial obligations. These obligations include the withdrawal of deposits on demand or at their contractual maturity, the repayment of matured borrowings, the ability to fund new and existing loan commitments and the ability to take advantage of new business opportunities. We achieve liquidity by maintaining a strong base of both core customer funds and maturing short-term assets; we also rely on our ability to sell or pledge securities and lines-of-credit and our overall ability to access to the financial and capital markets.

Liquidity for the Bank is managed through the monitoring of anticipated changes in loans, the investment portfolio, deposits and wholesale funds. The strength of the Bank’s liquidity position is a result of its base of core customer deposits. These core deposits are supplemented by wholesale funding sources that include credit lines with other banking institutions, the FHLB and the FRB. The primary source of our non-deposit borrowings is FHLB advances, of which we had $105.3 million outstanding at June 30, 2020. In addition to this amount, we have additional collateralized wholesale borrowing capacity of approximately $901.8 million from various funding sources which include the FHLB, the FRB, and commercial banks that we can use to fund lending activities, liquidity needs, and/or to adjust and manage our asset and liability position.

The Parent’s funding requirements consist primarily of dividends to shareholders, debt service, income taxes, operating expenses, funding of non-bank subsidiaries, repurchases of our stock, and acquisitions. The Parent obtains funding to meet obligations from dividends received from the Bank, net taxes collected from subsidiaries included in the federal consolidated tax return, and the issuance of debt and equity securities. In addition, the Parent maintains a revolving line of credit with a commercial bank for an aggregate amount of up to $20.0 million, all of which was available at June 30, 2020. The line of credit has a one-year term and matures in May 2021. Funds drawn would be used for general corporate purposes and backup liquidity.

Cash and cash equivalents were $119.6 million as of June 30, 2020, up $6.7 million from $112.9 million as of December 31, 2019. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $10.2 million and the principal source of operating activity cash flow was net income adjusted for noncash income and expense items. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $262.6 million, which included outflows of $276.4 million for net loan originations, and was partially offset by inflows of $15.8 million from net investment securities transactions. Net cash provided by financing activities of $259.0 million was attributed to a $438.3 million increase in deposits, partially offset by a $170.2 million decrease in short-term borrowings and by $8.9 million in dividend payments.

Capital Management

We actively manage capital, commensurate with our risk profile, to enhance shareholder value. We also seek to maintain capital levels for the Company and the Bank at amounts in excess of the regulatory “well-capitalized” thresholds. Periodically, we may respond to market conditions by implementing changes to our overall balance sheet positioning to manage our capital position.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Banks and financial holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by state and federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weighting and other factors.

Shareholders’ equity was $448.0 million at June 30, 2020, an increase of $9.1 million from $438.9 million at December 31, 2019. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased shareholders’ equity by $12.3 million, offset by an $8.7 million cumulative effect adjustment from the adoption of ASC 326 and common and preferred stock dividends declared of $9.1 million. Accumulated other comprehensive loss included in shareholders’ equity decreased $14.0 million during the first six months of 2020 due primarily to higher net unrealized gains on securities available for sale.

The FRB and FDIC have adopted a system using risk-based capital guidelines to evaluate the capital adequacy of banks and bank holding companies. The final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s (“BCBS”) capital guidelines for U.S. banks became effective for the Company on January 1, 2015 and was fully phased-in on January 1, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s capital levels remained characterized as “well-capitalized” under the new rules.

The following table reflects the ratios and their components (dollars in thousands):

We have elected to apply the 2020 CECL transition provision related to the impact of the CECL accounting standard on regulatory capital, as provided by the US banking agencies’ March 2020 interim final rule. Under the 2020 CECL transition provision, the regulatory capital impact of the Day 1 adjustment to the allowance for credit losses (after-tax) upon the January 1, 2020 CECL adoption date has been deferred, and will phase in to regulatory capital at 25% per year commencing January 1, 2022. For the ongoing impact of CECL, we are allowed to defer the regulatory capital impact of the allowance for credit losses in an amount equal to 25% of the change in the allowance for credit losses (pre-tax) recognized through earnings for each period between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2021. The cumulative adjustment to the allowance for credit losses between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2021, will also phase in to regulatory capital at 25% per year commencing January 1, 2022.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BCBS Capital Rules

The BCBS Capital Rules include a new common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets minimum ratio of 4.5%, increase the minimum Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio from 4.0% to 6.0%, require a minimum total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 8.0%, and require a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%. A new capital conservation buffer is also established above the regulatory minimum capital requirements, effectively increasing the minimum required risk-weighted asset ratios. This capital conservation buffer was fully phased-in as of January 1, 2019 at 2.5% of risk-weighted assets. Banking institutions with a capital conservation buffer below the minimum level will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall. The BCBS Capital Rules also provide for a “countercyclical capital buffer” that is applicable to only certain covered institutions and does not have any current applicability to the Company or the Bank. Strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments were also implemented under the final rules. The final rules also revised the definition and calculation of Tier 1 capital, total capital, and risk-weighted assets.

The following table presents actual and required capital ratios as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for the Company and the Bank under the BCBS Capital Rules. The minimum required capital amounts presented include the minimum required capital levels as of those dates based on the phase-in provisions of the BCBS Capital Rules and the minimum required capital levels as of January 1, 2019 when the BCBS Capital Rules have been fully phased-in. Capital levels required to be considered well capitalized are based upon prompt corrective action regulations, as amended to reflect the changes under the BCBS Capital Rules (in thousands):

Dividend Restrictions

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is dependent upon dividends from the Bank to provide funds for the payment of dividends to shareholders and to provide for other cash requirements. Banking regulations may limit the amount of dividends that may be paid. Approval by regulatory authorities is required if the effect of dividends declared would cause the regulatory capital of the Bank to fall below specified minimum levels. Approval is also required if dividends declared exceed the net profits for that year combined with the retained net profits for the preceding two years.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk refers to the potential impact on earnings or capital arising from movements in interest rates. The Bank’s market risk management framework has been developed to control both short-term and long-term exposure within Board approved policy limits and is monitored by the Asset-Liability Management Committee and Board of Directors. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk were presented at December 31, 2019 in Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2020. The following is an update of the discussion provided therein.

Portfolio Composition

There was no material change in the composition of assets, deposit liabilities or borrowings from December 31, 2019 to June 30, 2020. See the section titled “Analysis of Financial Condition” in Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for a discussion of asset, deposit and borrowing activity during the period.

Net Interest Income at Risk

A primary tool used to manage interest rate risk is “rate shock” simulation to measure the rate sensitivity. Rate shock simulation is a modeling technique used to estimate the impact of changes in rates on net interest income as well as economic value of equity.

Net interest income at risk is measured by estimating the changes in net interest income resulting from instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in interest rates of different magnitudes over a period of 12 months. The following table sets forth the estimated changes to net interest income over the 12-month period ending June 30, 2021 assuming instantaneous changes in interest rates for the given rate shock scenarios (dollars in thousands):

|  | Changes in Interest Rate |
|  | -100 bp |  |  | +100 bp |  |  | +200 bp |  |  | +300 bp |
Estimated change in net interest income |  | $ | 1,354 |  |  | $ | 764 |  |  | $ | 1,909 |  |  | $ | 3,719 |
% Change |  |  | 0.95 | % |  |  | 0.54 | % |  |  | 1.34 | % |  |  | 2.62 | %

In the rising rate environments, the model results indicate increases in net interest income compared to the flat rate scenario over a one-year timeframe. This is a result of assumed commercial loan products repricing at a higher frequency than underlying borrowing and deposit costs. As intermediate and longer-term assets continue to mature and are replaced at higher yields, net interest income improves over longer term timeframes. Model results in the declining rate environments also indicate increases in net interest income due to floating rate loans, tied to Prime, no longer repricing downwards due to Prime rate being floored, while interest rate sensitive liabilities still have slight sensitivity to downward movement in rates.

In addition to the changes in interest rate scenarios listed above, other scenarios are typically modeled to measure interest rate risk. These scenarios vary depending on the economic and interest rate environment.

The simulation referenced above is based on our assumption as to the effect of interest rate changes on assets and liabilities and assumes a parallel shift of the yield curve. It also includes certain assumptions about the future pricing of loans and deposits in response to changes in interest rates. Further, it assumes that delinquency rates would not change as a result of changes in interest rates, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. While this simulation is a useful measure as to net interest income at risk due to a change in interest rates, it is not a forecast of future results, does not measure the effect of changing interest rates on noninterest income and is based on many assumptions that, if changed, could cause a different outcome.

Economic Value of Equity At Risk

The economic (or “fair”) value of financial instruments on our balance sheet will also vary under the interest rate scenarios previously discussed. This variance is measured by simulating changes in our economic value of equity (“EVE”), which is calculated by subtracting the estimated fair value of liabilities from the estimated fair value of assets. Fair values for financial instruments are estimated by discounting projected cash flows (principal and interest) at current replacement rates for each account type, while fair values of non-financial assets and liabilities are assumed to equal book value and do not vary with interest rate fluctuations. An economic value simulation is a static measure for balance sheet accounts at a given point in time, but this measurement can change substantially over time as the characteristics of our balance sheet evolve and as interest rate and yield curve assumptions are updated.

The amount of change in economic value under different interest rate scenarios depends on the characteristics of each class of financial instrument, including the stated interest rate or spread relative to current market rates or spreads, the likelihood of prepayment, whether the rate is fixed or floating, and the maturity date of the instrument. As a general rule, fixed-rate financial assets become more valuable in declining rate scenarios and less valuable in rising rate scenarios, while fixed-rate financial liabilities gain in value as interest rates rise and lose value as interest rates decline. The longer the duration of the financial instrument, the greater the impact a rate change will have on its value. In our economic value simulations, estimated prepayments are factored in for financial instruments with stated maturity dates, and decay rates for non-maturity deposits are projected based on historical data (back-testing).

The analysis that follows presents the estimated EVE resulting from market interest rates prevailing at a given quarter-end (“Pre-Shock Scenario”), and under other interest rate scenarios (each a “Rate Shock Scenario”) represented by immediate, permanent, parallel shifts in interest rates from those observed at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands). The analysis additionally presents a measurement of the interest rate sensitivity at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. EVE amounts are comp uted under ea ch respective Pre-Shock Scenario and Rate Shock Scenario. An increase in the EVE amount is considered favorable, while a decline is considered unfavorable. The following table sets forth the estimated changes to EVE assuming instantaneous changes in interest rates for the given rate shock scenarios (dollars in thousands):

|  | June 30, 2020 |  |  | December 31, 2019 |
Rate Shock Scenario: |  | EVE |  |  | Change |  |  | Percentage Change |  |  | EVE |  |  | Change |  |  | Percentage Change |
Pre-Shock Scenario |  | $ | 537,401 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 632,832 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
- 100 Basis Points |  |  | 520,362 |  |  | $ | (17,039 | ) |  |  | -3.17 | % |  |  | 676,362 |  |  | $ | 43,530 |  |  |  | 6.88 | %
+100 Basis Points |  |  | 563,453 |  |  |  | 26,052 |  |  |  | 4.85 |  |  |  | 627,409 |  |  |  | (5,423 | ) |  |  | (0.86 | )
+ 200 Basis Points |  |  | 586,674 |  |  |  | 49,273 |  |  |  | 9.17 |  |  |  | 614,927 |  |  |  | (17,905 | ) |  |  | (2.83 | )
+ 300 Basis Points |  |  | 606,997 |  |  |  | 69,596 |  |  |  | 12.95 |  |  |  | 600,636 |  |  |  | (32,196 | ) |  |  | (5.09 | )

The decrease in the Pre-Shock Scenario EVE at June 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019 is a result of a 15% increase in non-public deposits largely due to funds received through the PPP. The decrease in the -100 basis point Rate Shock Scenario EVE is reflective of the assumption that deposit pricing is nearly floored and has the inability to reprice to a lower level. This is compounded by the assumption that the discount curve on the fixed rate portfolio is nearly floored, resulting in less premium on the portfolio in a falling rate environment. The overall level of change is in line with expectations due to the Federal Open Market Committee action to reduce the Federal Funds target rate by 150 basis points within the period and programs introduced to help small businesses with loans.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2020, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b), as adopted by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company has experienced no material developments in its legal proceedings from the disclosure included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on March 4, 2020.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

Except as stated below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I – Item 1A of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The ongoing novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and governmental and individual efforts to contain the pandemic, have had a significant negative impact on the U.S. and global economy which has and will continue to adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Federal Reserve reduced the target federal funds rate to a range of 0.00% to 0.25% in response to the expected economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This change influences the rate of interest we earn on loans and pay on borrowings and interest-bearing deposits, and can affect the value of financial instruments we hold. In an environment with lower interest rates, we will not be able to earn as much on our interest-earning assets, which will likely reduce net interest margin. In addition, our ability to earn interest and receive dividend income from investment securities will be reduced. If interest rates remain low for an extended period of time, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

In response to executive orders from the Governor of the State of New York, during the week of March 16, 2020, we took necessary steps to protect the health and safety of our associates, customers and communities by maximizing social distancing and implementing a work-from-home policy for many associates. Bank branch locations were also limited to drive-thru windows wherever possible, while we continue to provide essential services for our communities and their banking and financial needs. In addition, we have waived certain transaction fees for our customers during this time, including overdraft and late fees, and are providing payment relief opportunities for mortgage and home equity borrowers. Temporarily eliminating these fees and providing payment relief to customers will have a negative impact on our results of operations in the short term. If these measures are not effective in mitigating the effects of the pandemic on our customers and borrowers, we may experience higher rates of default and increased credit losses in future periods.

The U.S. economy generally and our customers and employees in particular have been directly impacted by prevalent “stay at home” orders in place in the State of New York that reduced travel and in-person interactions during the first and second quarters of 2020, and we expect they will continue to be impacted by social distancing efforts for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. A majority of our employees are working remotely, which may slow response times to customers’ inquiries or preclude providing the level of service our employees are typically able to offer in person. Our reputation and results of operations may be impacted if our competitors are better able to adjust to the restrictions on in-person interactions and remote work. Furthermore, as a majority of our employees continue to work from home, our operational risk, including data security risk, is higher than it would otherwise be, as cybercriminal activity has increased in an attempt to profit from the disruption to typical operations. The cybersecurity-related risks we face include more phishing, malware, and other cybersecurity attacks, vulnerability to disruptions of our information technology infrastructure and telecommunications systems for remote operations, and unauthorized dissemination, misuse or destruction of confidential or valuable information.

While we have experienced higher loan origination volume due to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the CARES Act, there can be no assurance that the borrowers under the CARES Act programs will be able to pay the interest, and principal payments, if applicable, when they are due. If the borrower of a PPP loan fails to qualify for loan forgiveness under the program, we will have to hold the loan at an unfavorable interest rate as compared to a loan we may otherwise have extended to our customer. Even though those loans are guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Association (the “SBA”), we may not be able to collect from the SBA as quickly as those payments come due, and our cash flow and earnings may be reduced accordingly. In the event of a loss resulting from a default on a PPP loan and a determination by the SBA that there was a deficiency in the manner in which we originated, funded or serviced the PPP loan, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already made payment under the guaranty, seek recovery of any loss related to the deficiency from us. Originations for consumer indirect lending, which currently constitutes 23.7% of our total loans, have declined since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. If this trend continues, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Our loan customers will likely be impacted by the overall decline in the U.S. economy, which may cause them to make late or reduced payments on their loans or default on their loans with us. In particular, our commercial mortgage customers may be experiencing higher rates of tenants not paying rent due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a lender, we are exposed to the risk that customers will be unable to repay their loans according to their terms and that any collateral securing the payment of their loans may not be sufficient to assure repayment. The collateral securing our indirect loan portfolio in particular may not be sufficient to cover the full value of an outstanding loan because the collateral, namely automobiles, are depreciating assets. Our credit risk has increased since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and related decline in the U.S. economy. In the event of delinquencies, regulatory changes and policies designed to protect borrowers may slow or prevent us from taking certain remediation actions, including foreclosure. We make various assumptions and judgments about the collectability of our loan portfolio, including the creditworthiness of our borrowers and the value of the real estate and other assets serving as collateral, and we provide an allowance for estimated loan losses based on a number of factors. We believe that the allowance for loan losses is adequate.

However, if our assumptions or judgments are wrong, the allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover the actual credit losses. We may have to increase the allowance in the future in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting changes to the U.S. economy. The actual amount of future provisions for credit losses may vary from the amount of past provisions. The longer the economic results of the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impact our customers, the more likely our credit quality is to decline and the more likely our customers will be to default on their loans with us. Continued economic disruption and fear of the spread of COVID-19 could result in business shutdowns, limitations on commercial activity and financial transactions, labor shortages, supply chain interruptions, increased unemployment and commercial property vacancy rates and reduced profitability and ability for property owners to make mortgage payments. If a significant proportion of our customers are unable to repay their loans and the collateral securing repayment is insufficient to cover our losses, we may have to increase our allowance for credit losses - loans, the quality of our loan portfolio will decline, our net income will decrease and our results of operations will be materially adversely impacted. In addition, our capital and leverage ratios may be adversely impacted.

At June 30, 2020, we held $159.5 million in debt securities that are issued by state and local government agencies, or municipal bonds, that are backed by the credit and taxing power of the issuing jurisdiction. As these state and local governments experience the impacts of the pandemic and stay at home orders, they are earning less sales tax revenue while incurring higher than expected costs as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may cause the credit rating of the municipal bonds we hold to be downgraded, which could in turn cause us to incur credit losses. If these bond issuers are unable to repay us when the bonds mature, we could lose our investment and our results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely impacted.

The market volatility related to the COVID-19 pandemic has driven market values of publicly traded securities downward. Because the majority of our investment advisory revenue is from fees based on a percentage of assets under management, our investment advisory revenues and profitability have fallen and will continue to fluctuate with the overall market conditions.

The spread of COVID-19 is expected to lead to an economic recession and other severe disruptions in the U.S. economy. Should the COVID-19 pandemic continue for an extended period of time, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may likewise be materially adversely impacted for an extended period of time.

The value of our goodwill and other intangible assets may decline in the future.

As of June 30, 2020, we had $66.1 million of goodwill and $8.3 million of other intangible assets. Although we did not record any impairment to our goodwill for the first six months of 2020, significant and sustained declines in our stock price and market capitalization, significant declines in our expected future cash flows, significant adverse changes in the business climate and slower growth rates, any or all of which could be materially impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, may necessitate our taking charges in the future related to the impairment of our goodwill. If the recent capital markets downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic continues for an extended period of time, or the capital markets continue to experience increased volatility, we may record an impairment to our goodwill in subsequent fiscal periods. Future regulatory actions could also have a material impact on assessments of goodwill for impairment. If the fair value of our net assets improves at a faster rate than the market value of our reporting units, or if we were to experience increases in book values of a reporting unit in excess of the increase in fair value of equity, we may also have to take charges related to the impairment of our goodwill. If we were to conclude that a future write-down of our goodwill is necessary, we would record the appropriate charge, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Identifiable intangible assets other than goodwill consist of core deposit intangibles and other intangible assets (primarily customer relationships). Adverse events or circumstances could impact the recoverability of these intangible assets including loss of core deposits, significant losses of customer accounts and/or balances, increased competition or adverse changes in the economy, such as those related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. To the extent these intangible assets are deemed unrecoverable, a non-cash impairment charge would be recorded which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
