Note 9– Derivative Financial Instruments

As a part of managing interest rate risk, the Corporation entered into interest rate swap agreements to modify the re-pricing characteristics of certain interest-bearing liabilities. The Corporation has designated its interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges under the guidance of ASC Subtopic 815-30, Derivatives and Hedging – Cash Flow Hedges. Cash flow hedges have the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative, net of taxes, recorded in net accumulated other comprehensive income.

In March 2016, the Corporation entered into four interest rate swap contracts totaling $30.0 million notional amount, hedging future cash flows associated with floating rate trust preferred debt. As of June 30, 2025, $15.0 million notional amount remains.   The interest rate swap creates an effective fixed interest rate of 4.66% on the $15.0 million notional amount of the Corporation’s junior subordination debt until the interest rate swap’s maturity in March 2026.  The fair value of the interest rate swap contracts was $0.3 million and $0.5 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, a $189,000 decrease in the aggregate value of the derivatives and $40,000 in related deferred tax benefits were recorded in net accumulated other comprehensive income to reflect the effective portion of cash flow hedges.  This compares to a $4,000 increase in value and related deferred taxes of $1,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.  For the three-month period ended June 30, 2025, a $81,000 decrease in the aggregate value of the derivatives and $17,000 in related deferred tax benefits were recorded in net accumulated other comprehensive income to reflect the effective portion of cash flow hedges.  This compares to a $69,000 decrease in the aggregate value of the derivatives and $18,000 in related deferred tax benefits for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024.  ASC Subtopic 815-30 requires the net accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) to be reclassified to earnings if the hedge becomes ineffective or is terminated. There was no hedge ineffectiveness recorded for any of the six- or three-month periods ended June 30, 2025 or 2024. The Corporation does not expect any material losses relating to these hedges to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

​

Interest rate swap agreements are entered into with counterparties that meet established credit standards, and the Corporation believes that the credit risk inherent in these contracts is not significant as of June 30, 2025.
