Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Retirement Plans | NOTE 15 - RETIREMENT PLANS The Company sponsors a savings and retirement 401(k) plan, which covers all employees who meet certain eligibility requirements and who choose to participate in the plan. The matching contribution to the 401(k) pl an was $1,688, $1,608 and $1,377 in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s matching contribution is 10 0% of an employee’s first three percent contributed and 50% of the next two percent contributed. The Company also sponsors a pension plan which is a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan for all employees who have attained the age of 20 1 ⁄ 2, completed six months of service and work 1,000 or more hours per year. Annual payments, subject to the maximum amount deductible for federal income tax purposes, are made to a pension trust fund. In 2006, the Company amended the pension plan to provide that no employee could be added as a participant to the pension plan after December 31, 2006. In April 2014, the Company amended the pension plan again to provide that no additional benefits would accrue beyond April 30, 2014. In October 2015, the Company, on behalf of it and its subsidiaries, entered into Pension Shortfall Agreements (the “Shortfall Agreements”) with ten employees of Civista. When the Company ceased accruals to its defined benefit pension plan on April 30, 2014, the circumstances of some participants with limited periods until their anticipated retirement dates would not permit them to use other available alternatives to make up for the shortfall in their expected pension. The Company calculated the total amount of the shortfall for each of the referenced individuals after considering its contributions to other retirement benefits. Pension shortfall expense was $82 i n 2024, $118 in 2023 and $145 in 2022. Included in pension shortfall expense was interest expense, totaling $36, $36 and $24 in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which was also recorded in and credited to the accounts of the individuals covered by this plan. Information about the pension plan is as follows:

Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) at December 31, consist of unrecognized actuarial loss of $4,506, net of $1,198 t ax in 2024 and $4,506, net of $1,198 tax in 2023. The accumulated benefit obligation for the defined benefit pension plan was $6,932 at December 31, 2024 and $8,019 at December 31, 2023. The components of net periodic pension expense were as follows:
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |

The components of net periodic benefit cost other than the service cost component are included in the line item “Other operating expenses” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The estimated net loss for the defined benefit pension plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost over the next fisca l year is $80. T he Company did no t incur any settlement costs related to the pension plan in 2024, 2023 or 2022. The weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations at year-end were as follows:
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Discount rate on benefit obligation |  |  | 5.54 | % |  |  | 4.76 | % |  |  | 4.95 | %
Long-term rate of return on plan assets |  |  | 5.00 | % |  |  | 5.53 | % |  |  | 4.84 | %
Rate of compensation increase |  |  | 0.00 | % |  |  | 0.00 | % |  |  | 0.00 | %
The weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic pension cost were as follows:
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Discount rate on benefit obligation |  |  | 4.76 | % |  |  | 4.95 | % |  |  | 2.74 | %
Long-term rate of return on plan assets |  |  | 5.53 | % |  |  | 4.84 | % |  |  | 3.84 | %
Rate of compensation increase |  |  | 0.00 | % |  |  | 0.00 | % |  |  | 0.00 | %
The Company uses long-term market rates to determine the discount rate on the benefit obligation. Declines in the discount rate lead to increases in the actuarial loss related to the benefit obligation. The expectation for long-term rate of return on the pension assets and the expected rate of compensation increases are reviewed periodically by management in consultation with outside actuaries and primary investment consultants. Factors considered in setting and adjusting these rates are historic and projected rates of return on the portfolio and historic and estimated rates of increases of compensation. Since the pension plan is frozen, the rate of compensation increase used to determine the benefit obligation for 2024, 2023 and 2022 was zero. The Company’s pension plan asset allocation at year-end 2024 and 2023 and target allocation for 2024 by asset category are as follows:
|  | Target Allocation |  | Percentage of Plan Assets at Year-end |
Asset Category |  | 2024 |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Equity securities |  | 0-30% |  |  | 20.0 | % |  |  | 20.0 | %
Debt securities |  | 70-100 |  |  | 80.0 |  |  |  | 80.0 |
Total |  |  |  |  | 100.0 | % |  |  | 100.0 | %
The Company developed the pension plan investment policies and strategies for plan assets with its pension management firm. The assets are currently invested in seven diversified investment funds, which include four equity funds and three bond funds. The long-term guidelines from above were created to maximize the return on portfolio assets while reducing the risk of the portfolio. The management firm may allocate assets among the separate accounts within the established long-term guidelines. Transfers among these accounts will be at the management firm’s discretion based on their investment outlook and the investment strategies that are outlined at periodic meetings with the Company. The expected long-term rate of return on the plan assets was 5.00% in 2024 and 5.53% in 2023. This return is based on the expected return for each of the asset categories, weighted based on the target allocation for each class. The Company does no t expect to make any contribution to its pension plan in 2025. Employer contributions totaled $0 in 2024 and 2023. A decrease in the benefit obligations, offset by a decrease in the fair value of plan assets led to an increase in the funded status from $1,934 at December 31, 2023 to a funded status of $2,341 at December 31, 2024. Common/Collective Trust Funds Common/Collective Trust Funds are valued at the daily net asset value ("NAV") as reported by the funds. These funds are not traded in an active market or exchange, and the NAV per unit is calculated by dividing the net assets of the fund by the number of units outstanding, which includes observable inputs. The method described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the pension plan believes its valuation method is 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 fair value measurement at the reporting date. Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient are not required to be categorized in the fair value hierarchy tables. Fair Value of Investments in Entities That Use NAV The following table summarizes investments measured at fair value based on NAV per share as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively:
December 31, 2024 |  | Fair Value |  |  | Unfunded Commitments |  | Redemption Frequency (if currently eligible) |  | Redemption Notice Period
Common/collective trust funds |  | $ | 9,273 |  |  | N/A |  | Daily |  | Daily
December 31, 2023 |  | Fair Value |  |  | Unfunded Commitments |  | Redemption Frequency (if currently eligible) |  | Redemption Notice Period
Common/collective trust funds |  | $ | 9,953 |  |  | N/A |  | Daily |  | Daily
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the pension plan believes its valuation methods 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 fair value measurement at the reporting date. Expected benefit payments over the next ten years, which reflect expected future service, are as follows:
2025 |  | $ | 219 |
2026 |  |  | 249 |
2027 |  |  | 272 |
2028 |  |  | 282 |
2029 |  |  | 305 |
2030 through 2034 |  |  | 2,564 |
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Civista established a supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) in 2011, which covers key members of management. The SERP was amended and restated effective January 1, 2024. Under the SERP, participants will receive annually, following retirement, a percentage of their base compensations at the time of their retirement for a maximum of ten years. The SERP liability recorded at December 31, 2024, was $4,593, c ompared to $4,083 at December 31, 2023. The expense related to the SERP was $779, $233 and $420 for 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Distributions to participants made in 2024, 2023 and 2022 totaled $270, $176, and $173, respectively.
