ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE NOT YET EFFECTIVE AND ADOPTED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE NOT YET EFFECTIVE AND ADOPTED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

Accounting Guidance Adopted in 2023

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the incurred loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in certain leases. In addition, ASU 2016-13 made changes to the accounting for available for sale debt securities. One such change requires increases or decreases in credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on available for sale debt securities, based on management's intent to sell the security or likelihood the Company will be required to sell the security, before recovery of the amortized cost basis. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. Results for the reporting periods beginning on and after January 1, 2023 are presented under ASU 2016-13 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the prospective transition approach for financial assets purchased with credit deterioration (PCD) that were previously classified as purchase credit impaired (PCI) and accounted for under ASC 310-30. In accordance with ASU 2016-13, management did not reassess whether PCI assets met the criteria of PCD assets as of the date of adoption. The remaining noncredit discount (based on the adjusted amortized costs basis) will be accreted into interest income at the effective interest rate as of adoption. The Company recognized an increase in the allowance for credit loss on loans totaling $1.5 million (which included a reclassification of the net credit discounts on acquired PCI loans to the allowance for credit losses of $845,000) and an increase to the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $45,000, as a cumulative effect adjustment from change in accounting policies, with a corresponding after-tax decrease to opening retained earnings of $491,000.

​

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2022-02 Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. ASU 2022-02 eliminates the recognition measurement guidance for troubled debt restructured ("TDR") loans, and instead requires an entity to evaluate whether a modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan in accordance with ASC Topic 310-20, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. On a prospective basis, entities are subject to new disclosure requirements covering modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, ASU 2022-02 requires that an entity include in its vintage disclosures the current period-gross loan charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023 using a prospective transition method, and has thus far observed no material impact to deferred fees and costs and the related timing of net interest income recognition as a result of adoption.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The amendments in this ASU are elective and provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden of accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU may be elected through December 31, 2024 (as amended by ASU No. 2022-06 discussed below). An entity may elect the amendments in this update for an interim period with adoption methods varying based on transaction type. We have not elected to apply amendments at this time and will assess the applicability of this ASU to us as we continue to monitor guidance for reference rate reform from FASB and its impact on our financial condition and results of operations. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

​

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. The objective of the guidance in Topic 848 was to provide temporary relief during the transition period, as noted in the discussion of ASU 2020-04 above, under which the sunset provision was based on an expectation that the LIBOR would cease being published after December 31, 2021. In March 2021, the UK Financial Conduct Authority announced that the intended cessation date of certain tenors of USD LIBOR would be June 30, 2023, which was beyond the original sunset date of Topic 848. Therefore, this amendment deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024.
