Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. Under the new guidance, which will replace the existing incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses, banks and other lending institutions will be required to recognize the full amount of expected credit losses. The new guidance, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss model, requires that expected credit losses for financial assets, held at the reporting date that are accounted for at amortized cost, be measured and recognized based on historical experience and current and reasonably supportable forecasted conditions to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. A modified version of these requirements also applies to debt securities classified as available for sale. The ASU was to be effective for all SEC registrants for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On October 16, 2019, FASB voted to finalize a proposal issued in August 2019 under which the effective implementation date was changed for SEC registrants meeting the definition of a Smaller Reporting Company to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within such years. The Company qualifies as a Smaller Reporting Company. It continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements, and continues to anticipate that it may have a material impact upon adoption. The Bank has formed an implementation committee for ASU No. 2016-13. To date, committee members have participated in educational seminars on the new standards, identified the historical data sets that will be necessary to implement the new standard, and have chosen a third-party vendor who provides software solutions for ASU No. 2016-13 modeling and calculation. The Bank is in the late stages of implementing this software and plans to run incurred loss and current expected credit loss models in parallel until adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 on January 1, 2023.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-01 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging – Portfolio Layer Method. This ASU expands upon hedge accounting concepts introduced in ASU 2017-12 by allowing multiple hedged layers to be designated for a single closed portfolio of financial assets which may allow a greater proportion of interest rate risk inherent in the assets to be hedged. The last of layer method outlined in ASU 2017-12 is renamed the portfolio layer method in ASU 2022-01. ASU 2022-01 also allows, upon adoption, the reclassification of debt securities classified as held to maturity to the available for sale category provided the reclassification takes place within thirty days of adoption and the same debt securities are included in a portfolio layer method hedge within the thirty day period. ASU 2022-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted for entities, such as the Company, that have adopted ASU 2017-12. This ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Also in March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) and Vintage Disclosures. The ASU eliminates the current guidance in ASC Subtopic 310-40 regarding troubled debt restructures in its entirety. After adoption, loan modifications will be determined to be a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan in accordance with current ASC guidance. Disclosure will consist of information on modifications to debtors experiencing financial difficulty that were in the form of principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other than insignificant payment delay, a term extension, or any combination of the foregoing. The ASU will also require disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. This ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
