ChoiceOne Financial Services, Inc.
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include ChoiceOne Financial Services, Inc. (“ChoiceOne”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, prevailing practices within the banking industry and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments ordinary in nature which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in ChoiceOne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Loans to Other Financial Institutions

The Bank entered into an agreement with another financial institution to fund mortgage loans. Loans to other financial institutions are purchased participating interests in individual advances made to mortgage bankers nation-wide from an unaffiliated originating bank. The originating bank services these loans and cash flows on the individual advances (principal, interest, and fees) which are allocated pro-rata based on ownership in the participating interest, less fees paid for the servicing activity. The underlying collateral is generally made up of 1-4 family first residential mortgages owned by the mortgage banker and held for sale in the secondary market and have been underwritten using secondary market underwriting standards prior to purchasing the participating interest. Once the mortgage banker delivers the loan to the secondary market, the advance is required to be paid off, including the Bank’s participating interest. If the advance (in which the Bank has a participating interest) is outstanding over 90 days, the originating bank has the right to request the participating interest be paid off by the mortgage banker. The participating interests are subject to concentration risk to 13 different mortgage bankers, with the largest creditor outstanding representing 19% of the total at September 30, 2019.

Credit risk associated with the participating interest is measured as an allowance for loan losses when necessary. Losses are charged off against the allowance when incurred and recoveries of loan charge-offs are recorded when received. At least quarterly, the Bank reviews the portfolio of participating interests for potential losses including any participating interest that is outstanding over 90 days (even if the advance and participating interest is current). At September 30, 2019, 17 of the 184 participating interests with principal balances totaling $4.8 million had balances outstanding over 30 days. During the first nine months of 2019 and 2018, there were no losses or charge-offs of participating interests.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb probable incurred losses inherent in the consolidated loan portfolio. Management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is an estimate based on reviews of individual loans, assessments of the impact of current economic conditions on the portfolio and historical loss experience of seasoned loan portfolios. See Note 3 to the interim consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Management believes the accounting estimate related to the allowance for loan losses is a “critical accounting estimate” because (1) the estimate is highly susceptible to change from period to period because of assumptions concerning the changes in the types and volumes of the portfolios and economic conditions and (2) the impact of recognizing an impairment or loan loss could have a material effect on ChoiceOne’s assets reported on the balance sheets as well as its net income.

Stock Transactions

A total of 3,390 shares of common stock were issued upon the exercise of stock options for a cash price of $46,000 in the first nine months of 2019. A total of 4,139 shares of common stock were issued to ChoiceOne’s Board of Directors for a cash price of $110,000 under the terms of the Directors’ Stock Purchase Plan in the first nine months of 2019. A total of 2,589 shares for a cash price of $61,000 were issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan in the first nine months of 2019. Shares of common stock issued upon the vesting of restricted stock units, net of shares withheld for payment of related taxes, totaled 7,787 in the first nine months of 2019.

Stock-Based Compensation

ChoiceOne grants restricted stock units to a select group of employees under the Stock Incentive Plan of 2012. All of the restricted stock units are initially unvested and vest in three annual installments on each of the next three anniversaries of the grant date. Certain additional vesting provisions apply. Each unit, once vested, is settled by delivery of one share of ChoiceOne common stock.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts presented in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The ASU covers various changes to the accounting, measurement, and disclosure related to certain financial instruments. The most significant change included in the update is the requirement for certain equity investments (excluding investments that are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method of accounting) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. An entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost, minus impairment. When a qualitative assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values indicates that impairment exists, an entity is required to measure the investment at fair value. The update also eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. ChoiceOne implemented ASU 2016-01 effective January1, 2018. A cumulative-effect adjustment was recorded as of January 1, 2018 to reclassify $244,000 of unrealized gains on equity securities from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. Equity securities have also been presented separately from available for sale debt securities on the balance sheet and the fair value of loans has been estimated using an exit price notion in Note 5.

The FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. Implementation of the new standard caused ChoiceOne to recognize $105,000 of a lease asset and liability as of January 1, 2019. The lease asset was included in premises and equipment and the lease liability in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The impact on ChoiceOne’s expense was not significant.

The FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU provides financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date by replacing the incurred loss impairment methodology in current generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The new guidance attempts to reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses and broadens the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually to include forecasted information, as well as past events and current conditions. There is no specified method for measuring expected credit losses, and an entity may apply methods that reasonably reflect its expectations of the credit loss estimate. Although an entity may still use its current systems and methods for recording the allowance for credit losses, under the new rules, the inputs used to record the allowance for credit losses generally will need to change to appropriately reflect an estimate of all expected credit losses and the use of reasonable and supportable forecasts. Additionally, credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities will have to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. In October 2019, FASB delayed the effective date for the credit loss standard to January 2023 for certain entities, including certain Securities and Exchange Commission filers, public business entities and private companies. As a smaller reporting company, ChoiceOne is eligible for the proposed delay under the updated language in the standard.

ChoiceOne reviews its securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to determine whether unrealized losses are considered to be temporary or other-than-temporary. No other-than-temporary impairment charges were recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 or in the same periods in 2018. ChoiceOne believes that unrealized losses on securities were temporary in nature and were due to changes in interest rates and reduced market liquidity and not as a result of credit quality issues.

The process to monitor the credit quality of ChoiceOne’s loan portfolio includes tracking (1) the risk ratings of business loans, (2) the level of classified business loans, and (3) delinquent and nonperforming consumer loans. Business loans are risk rated on a scale of 1 to 8. A description of the characteristics of the ratings follows:

Risk ratings 1 and 2: These loans are considered pass credits. They exhibit good to exceptional credit risk and demonstrate the ability to repay the loan from normal business operations.

Risk rating 3: These loans are considered pass credits. They exhibit acceptable credit risk and demonstrate the ability to repay the loan from normal business operations.

Risk rating 4: These loans are considered pass credits. However, they have potential developing weaknesses that, if not corrected, may cause deterioration in the ability of the borrower to repay the loan. While a loss is possible for a loan with this rating, it is not anticipated.

Risk rating 5: These loans are considered special mention credits. Loans in this risk rating are considered to be inadequately protected by the net worth and debt service coverage of the borrower or of any pledged collateral. These loans have well defined weaknesses that may jeopardize the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. If the weaknesses are not corrected, loss of principal and interest could be probable.

Risk rating 6: These loans are considered substandard credits. These loans have well defined weaknesses, the severity of which makes collection of principal and interest in full questionable. Loans in this category may be placed on nonaccrual status.

Risk rating 7: These loans are considered doubtful credits. Some loss of principal and interest has been determined to be probable. The estimate of the amount of loss could be affected by factors such as the borrower’s ability to provide additional capital or collateral. Loans in this category are on nonaccrual status.

Risk rating 8: These loans are considered loss credits. They are considered uncollectible and will be charged off against the allowance for loan losses.

The pre-modification and post-modification outstanding recorded investments represent amounts as of the date of loan modification. If a difference exists between the pre-modification and post-modification outstanding recorded investment, it represents impairment recognized through the provision for loan losses computed based on a loan’s post-modification present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate. If no difference exists, a loss is not expected to be incurred based on an assessment of the borrower’s expected cash flows.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following tables present information about assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the valuation techniques used to determine those fair values.

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Bank has the ability to access.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Bank’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.

There were no liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018. Disclosures concerning assets measured at fair value are as follows:

Of the available for sale Level 3 assets that were held by ChoiceOne at September 30, 2019, the net unrealized gain as of September 30, 2019 was $495,000, which was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheet. Of the equity securities classified as Level 3 assets that were held by ChoiceOne at September 30, 2019, the fair value was consistent with par as of September 30, 2019. ChoiceOne purchased two bonds from municipalities in our market area at a purchase price of $2.1 million that are considered Level 3 securities in the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions classified as Level 3 investment securities and liabilities. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for these assets and liabilities presented in the tables above may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs.

Securities categorized as Level 3 assets primarily consist of bonds issued by local municipalities and equity securities of community banks. ChoiceOne estimates the fair value of these bonds based on the present value of expected future cash flows using management’s best estimate of key assumptions, including forecasted interest yield and payment rates, credit quality and a discount rate commensurate with the current market and other risks involved.

ChoiceOne also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are not normally measured at fair value, but can be subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as impairment. Disclosures concerning assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are as follows:

Impaired loans categorized as Level 3 assets consist of non-homogeneous loans that are considered impaired. ChoiceOne estimates the fair value of the loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows using management’s estimate of key assumptions. These assumptions include future payment ability, timing of payment streams, and estimated realizable values of available collateral (typically based on outside appraisals). The changes in fair value consisted of charge-downs of impaired loans that were posted to the allowance for loan losses and write-downs of other real estate that were posted to a valuation account.

NOTE 7 – REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

ChoiceOne has a variety of sources of revenue, which include interest and fees from customers as well as revenue from non-customers. ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts With Customers, covers certain sources of revenue that are classified within noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Sources of revenue that are included in the scope of ACS Topic 606 include service charges and fees on deposit accounts, interchange income, investment asset management income and transaction-based revenue, and other charges and fees for customer services.

Service Charges and Fees on Deposit Accounts

Revenue includes charges and fees to provide account maintenance, overdraft services, wire transfers, funds transfer, and other deposit-related services. Account maintenance fees such as monthly services charges are recognized over the period of time that the service is provided. Transaction fees such as wire transfer charges are recognized when the service is provided to the customer.

Interchange Income

Revenue includes debit card interchange and network revenues. This revenue is earned on debit card transactions that are conducted through payment networks such as MasterCard. The revenue is recorded as services are delivered and is presented net of interchange expenses.

Investment Commission Income

Revenue includes fees from investment management advisory services and revenue is recognized when services are rendered. Revenue also includes commissions received from the placement of brokerage transactions for purchase or sale of stocks or other investments. Commission income is recognized when the transaction has been completed.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion is designed to provide a review of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of ChoiceOne Financial Services, Inc. (“ChoiceOne”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and related notes.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This discussion and other sections of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements that are based on management’s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and ChoiceOne itself. Words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “is likely,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “may,” “could,” “look forward,” “continue”, “future”, and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Management’s determination of the provision and allowance for loan losses, the carrying value of goodwill, loan servicing rights, other real estate owned, and the fair value of investment securities (including whether any impairment on any investment security is temporary or other-than-temporary and the amount of any impairment) and management’s assumptions concerning pension and other postretirement benefit plans involve judgments that are inherently forward-looking. All of the information concerning interest rate sensitivity is forward-looking. All statements with references to future time periods are forward-looking. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions (“risk factors”) that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood, and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed, implied or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Furthermore, ChoiceOne undertakes no obligation to update, amend, or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Risk factors include, but are not limited to, the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of ChoiceOne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. These are representative of the risk factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary

Net income for the third quarter of 2019 was $1,021,000, which represented a decrease of $993,000 or 49% compared to the same period in 2018. Net income for the first nine months of 2019 was $4,144,000, which represented a decrease of $1,361,000 or 25% compared to the first nine months of the prior year. Growth in noninterest expense in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 was partially offset by higher noninterest income in the third quarter and higher net interest income and noninterest income in the first three quarters of 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year. Noninterest expense for the first nine months of 2019 was impacted by $1.4 million of expense related to the merger of County Bank Corp (“County”) with and into ChoiceOne, completed on October 1, 2019. The federal income tax effect of the merger expenses for the first nine months of 2019 is estimated to be $157,000 as only a portion of the expenses are expected to be tax deductible. Net income adjusted to exclude tax-effected merger expenses of $1,194,000 was $5,338,000 in the first nine months of 2019.

Basic and diluted earnings per common share were $0.28 for the third quarter and $1.14 for the first nine months of 2019, compared to $0.55 for the third quarter and $1.52 for the first three quarters of the prior year. Diluted earnings per share, adjusted to exclude the tax-effected merger expenses, would have been $0.45 in the third quarter and $1.46 in the first nine months of 2019. Earnings per share for 2018 was adjusted for the 5% stock dividend paid in May 2018. The return on average assets and return on average shareholders’ equity were 0.83% and 6.62%, respectively, for the first nine months of 2019, compared to 1.16% and 9.63%, respectively, for the same period in 2018.

Net income, basic earnings per share, diluted earnings per share, return on average assets and return on average shareholders’ equity, excluding tax-effected merger expenses are non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the section below titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation to the most directly-comparable GAAP financial measures.

Business Combination

On October 1, 2019, ChoiceOne completed the merger of County, the holding company for Lakestone Bank and Trust, with and into ChoiceOne pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 22, 2019. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of County common stock was converted into the right to receive 2.0632 shares of ChoiceOne common stock plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 do not include financial results for County.

Dividends

Cash dividends of $2,906,000 or $0.80 per share were declared in the third quarter of 2019, compared to $651,000 or $0.18 per share in the third quarter of 2018. Cash dividends declared in the first nine months of 2019 were $4,356,000 or $1.20 per share, compared to $1,921,000 or an adjusted $0.53 per share in the same period in the prior year. The per share amount for the first nine months of 2018 was adjusted for the 5% stock dividend paid in May 2018. Cash dividends in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 included a special dividend of $2,180,000 or $0.60 per share, paid in connection with the merger of County with and into ChoiceOne. The cash dividend payout percentage was 105% for the first nine months of 2019, compared to 35% in the same period in the prior year. The cash dividend percentage for the first nine months of 2019, if adjusted for the special dividend, would have been 53%.

Interest Income and Expense

Tables 1 and 2 on the following pages provide information regarding interest income and expense for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Net Interest Income

Tax-equivalent net interest income increased $119,000 in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The benefit from growth in average interest-earning assets was mostly offset by a decline in the net interest spread in 2019 compared to 2018. The net interest spread on a tax-equivalent basis declined by 29 basis points from 3.72% in the first nine months of 2018 to 3.43% in the same period in 2019, which had a $702,000 negative impact on tax-equivalent net interest income in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year.

The average balance of loans increased $26.7 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. Loans to other financial institutions provided $16.6 million of the growth. Average residential real estate loans increased $7.8 million, while average commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans were $2.2 million higher in the first nine months of 2019 than the first nine months of the prior year. The increase in the average loans balance was bolstered by an 11 basis point increase in the average rate earned. This caused tax-equivalent interest income from loans to increase $1.3 million in the first three quarters of 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year. The average balance of total securities decreased $1.0 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The effect of the average balance decline, offset by a 9 basis point increase in the average rate earned on securities, caused tax-equivalent securities income to increase $97,000 in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

The average balance of interest-bearing demand deposits increased $3.4 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The growth plus the impact of an increase of 23 basis points in the average rate paid on interest-bearing demand deposits caused interest expense to increase $367,000 in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The average balance of certificates of deposit was up $22.3 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. Brokered certificates of deposit provided $10.5 million of the average balance increase in 2019. The growth in certificates of deposit plus a 76 basis point increase in the average rate paid on certificates caused interest expense to increase $933,000 in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The impact of a 90 basis point increase in the average rate paid on Federal Home Loan Bank advances caused interest expense to increase $73,000 in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the first nine months of 2018.

ChoiceOne’s net interest income spread on a tax-equivalent basis was 3.43% in the first nine months of 2019, compared to 3.72% for the same period in 2018. The decline in the interest spread was due to an increase of 41 basis points in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by growth of 12 basis points in the average rate earned on interest earning assets. Increases in short-term interest rates that began in 2018 and continued in early 2019 was the primary factor for the higher average rates in both interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The rate earned on ChoiceOne’s floating rate loans was also impacted by decreases in the federal funds rate of 25 basis points on July 31, 2019 and September 18, 2019. Competition in ChoiceOne’s market areas for loans and deposits caused the interest rates that could be obtained on new loan originations to be less than the increase in rates necessary to retain local deposits and to grow wholesale funding.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

Total loans decreased $2.3 million in the first nine months of 2019, while the allowance for loan losses decreased $577,000 during the same period. No provision expense was recorded in the first nine months of 2019 due to the small decline in loans that occurred since the end of 2018. Nonperforming loans were $5.6 million as of September 30, 2019, compared to $6.3 million as of June 30, 2019 and $3.8 million as of December 31, 2018. The decline in nonperforming loans in the third quarter of 2019 was due to a $670,000 charge-off of a portion of a large loan relationship. A specific reserve had been allocated to this relationship in the second quarter of 2019. The allowance for loan losses was 1.01% of total loans at September 30, 2019, compared to 1.21% at June 30, 2019 and 1.14% at December 31, 2018.

Charge-offs and recoveries for respective loan categories for the nine months ended September 30 were as follows:

(Dollars in thousands) |  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |
|  | Charge-offs |  |  | Recoveries |  |  | Charge-offs |  |  | Recoveries |
Agricultural |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 65 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |

30

Net charge-offs of $705,000 and $577,000 were recorded in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively, compared to net charge-offs of $37,000 and net recoveries of $10,000 during the same periods in 2018, respectively. Net charge-offs on an annualized basis as a percentage of average loans were 0.18% in the first nine months of 2019 and 0.00% for the same period in the prior year. Management is aware that the economic climate in Michigan will continue to affect business and individual borrowers. Management has worked and intends to continue to work with delinquent borrowers in an attempt to lessen the negative impact to ChoiceOne. As charge-offs, changes in the level of nonperforming loans, and changes within the composition of the loan portfolio occur throughout 2019, the provision and allowance for loan losses will be reviewed by the Bank’s management and adjusted as determined to be necessary.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income increased $83,000 in the third quarter and $500,000 in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018. As a result of lower long-term interest rates, gains on sales of loans increased $415,000 in the third quarter and $601,000 in the first three quarters of 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The negative change in the market value of equity securities in the third quarter of 2019 compared to a positive change in the third quarter of 2018 represented a reversal of market value appreciation that occurred in the first two quarters of 2019.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense increased $1.3 million in the third quarter and $2.3 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018. Growth in professional fees of $526,000 and $1.2 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively, was primarily due to the merger of County with and into ChoiceOne. Part of the increase in data processing expenses in 2019 compared to 2018 was also related to the merger. ChoiceOne’s two new offices contributed to the growth in salaries and benefits and occupancy and equipment expense in 2019 compared to 2018.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $671,000 in the first nine months of 2019 compared to $992,000 for the same period in 2018. The effective tax rate was 13.9% for the first nine months of 2019 and 15.3% for the first nine months of 2018.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Securities

The securities available for sale portfolio decreased $11.8 million from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019. Due to current market rates available for securities, management limited securities purchases in the first three quarters of 2019. Various securities totaling $13.9 million were purchased in the first nine months of 2019 and were offset by approximately $26.1 million of securities called or matured during that same time period. Principal repayments on securities totaled $3.4 million in the first nine months of 2019. Approximately $1.2 million of securities were sold in the first nine months of 2019 for a net gain of $22,000. Due to lower interest rates in the first nine months of 2019, the Bank’s market value adjustment on securities available for sale improved from a net unrealized loss of $1.1 million as of December 31, 2018 to a net unrealized gain of $3.7 million as of September 30, 2019.

Loans

The balance of loans to other financial institutions was $9.3 million higher at September 30, 2019 than at December 31, 2018. The increase resulted from more activity in this loan program during the first three quarters of 2019. Loans, excluding loans held for sale and loans to other financial institutions, declined $2.3 million from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019. Decreases of $9.9 million and $0.6 million in commercial and industrial loans and residential real estate loans, respectively, were partially offset by growth of $4.9 million in commercial real estate loans, $2.3 million in construction real estate loans, and $0.9 million in agricultural loans. The balance changes resulted from normal fluctuations in borrower activity.

Asset Quality

Information regarding impaired loans can be found in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report. The total balance of loans classified as impaired was $5.7 million at September 30, 2019, compared to $6.4 million as of June 30, 2019 and $4.0 million as of December 31, 2018. The change from the end of 2018 to June 30, 2019 was primarily comprised of a single relationship that was placed in nonaccrual status in the second quarter of 2019. A charge-off of approximately $670,000 of this loan relationship was recorded in the third quarter of 2019. An allowance of the same amount was allocated to the loan as of June 30, 2019.

As part of its review of the loan portfolio, management also monitors the various nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans are comprised of: (1) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; (2) loans, not included in nonaccrual loans, which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments; and (3) loans, not included in nonaccrual or loans past due 90 days or more, which are considered troubled debt restructurings.

31

The balances of these nonperforming loans were as follows:

(Dollars in thousands) |  | September 30, |  |  | December 31, |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |
Loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis |  | $ | 3,573 |  |  | $ | 1,532 |
Accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Loans considered troubled debt restructurings |  |  | 2,062 |  |  |  | 2,254 |
Total |  | $ | 5,635 |  |  | $ | 3,786 |

At September 30, 2019, nonaccrual loans included $389,000 in agricultural loans, $279,000 in commercial and industrial loans, $7,000 in consumer loans, $1.9 million in commercial real estate loans, and $973,000 in residential real estate loans. At December 31, 2018, nonaccrual loans included $393,000 in agricultural loans, $62,000 in consumer loans, $123,000 in commercial real estate loans, and $954,000 in residential real estate loans. Approximately 51% of the balance of loans considered troubled debt restructurings were performing according to their restructured terms as of September 30, 2019. Management believes the allowance allocated to its nonperforming loans is sufficient at September 30, 2019.

Deposits and Borrowings

Total deposits increased $12.3 million in the third quarter and declined $2.9 million in the first nine months of 2019. Interest-bearing deposits decreased $1.9 million and noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $1.0 million in the first nine months of 2019 primarily due to seasonal fluctuations for ChoiceOne’s depositors. The total of demand deposits, money market deposits, and savings deposits decreased $2.6 million in the first three quarters of 2019 while growth of $13.8 million in local certificates of deposit virtually offset a reduction of $14.1 million in brokered certificates of deposit.

Shareholders’ Equity

Total shareholders’ equity increased $4.1 million from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019. A change in accumulated other comprehensive income of $3.8 million resulted from improvement in the market value of ChoiceOne’s available for sale securities. The improvement was caused by a reduction in the first nine months of 2019 in mid- to long-term interest rates. Net income for the first nine months of 2019 was slightly lower than cash dividends declared during the same time period due to the special dividend paid in connection with the merger of County with and into ChoiceOne.

Management reviews the capital levels of ChoiceOne and the Bank on a regular basis. The Board of Directors and management believe that the capital levels as of September 30, 2019 are adequate for the foreseeable future. The Board of Directors’ determination of appropriate cash dividends for future periods will be based on, among other things, market conditions and ChoiceOne’s requirements for cash and capital.

Liquidity

Net cash provided from operating activities was $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $7.0 million provided in the same period a year ago. The decrease was caused by $1.4 million decrease in net income during the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year. Net cash provided by investing activities was $8.5 million for the first nine months of 2019 compared to $29.7 million used in the same period in 2018. The change was primarily due to a net reduction in securities in the first nine months of 2019 compared to net purchases in the same period in the prior year. Net cash used in financing activities was $17.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $326,000 provided in the same period in the prior year. The change was due to the net changes in federal funds purchased, a decrease in proceeds from FHLB advances, and deposits, which were partially offset by the net change in repurchase agreements and a decrease in payments on FHLB advances in 2019 compared to 2018.

Management believes that the current level of liquidity is sufficient to meet the Bank’s normal operating needs. This belief is based upon the availability of deposits from both the local and national markets, maturities of securities, normal loan repayments, income retention, federal funds purchased from correspondent banks, and advances available from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank also has a secured line of credit available from the Federal Reserve Bank.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This report contains references to net income, basic earnings per share, and diluted earnings per share excluding tax-effected merger expenses, each of which is a financial measure that is not defined in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides additional information that is useful to investors in helping to understand the underlying financial performance of ChoiceOne.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious with respect to the use of such measures. To compensate for these limitations, we use non-GAAP measures as comparative tools, together with GAAP measures, to assist in the evaluation of our operating performance or financial condition. Also, we ensure that these measures are calculated using the appropriate GAAP or regulatory components in their entirety and that they are computed in a manner intended to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons. ChoiceOne’s method of calculating these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from methods used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for those financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP or in-effect regulatory requirements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of ChoiceOne’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of ChoiceOne’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2019. Based on and as of the time of that evaluation, ChoiceOne’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that ChoiceOne’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that ChoiceOne files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’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 ChoiceOne files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including ChoiceOne’s principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There was no change in ChoiceOne’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, ChoiceOne’s internal control over financial reporting.
