Dear Shareholders:

 

I am pleased to report that net income for 2013 increased 76% over 2012 and is at its highest level since 2007.  For 2013, Hawthorn reported a net profit of $5.0 million compared to $2.8 million for 2012.  As a result of higher earnings and repayment of the Company’s U.S. Treasury debt, income available to common shareholders increased for 2013 to $4.4 million, or $0.87 per diluted common share, compared to $1.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share for 2012.

 

Our improved earnings performance in 2013 was primarily the result of continued improvement in asset quality which allowed us to reduce our loan loss provision. The provision for loan losses for 2013 was $2.0 million compared to $8.9 million for 2012.  Non-performing loans decreased $4.1 million to 4.21% of total loans at December 31, 2013, from 4.65% at December 31, 2012.  During the year, net charge-offs were $3.2 million compared to $7.9 million for 2012, when the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2013 was $13.7 million, or 1.63% of outstanding loans, and 38.84% of non-performing loans compared to December 31, 2012, where the allowance for loan losses was $14.8 million, or 1.75% of outstanding loans, and 37.70% of non-performing loans. As we evaluate our loan portfolio, we are seeing many positive trends including stabilization in our problem assets. A significant portion of our reserves is specifically allocated to loans of customers who are working through their financial problems.

 

Net interest income for 2013 was $39.3 million compared to $41.2 million for 2012.  While the decrease continues to be the result of the historically low rate environment and growing competition for quality loans, our net interest margin has remained healthy. On a tax equivalent basis, Hawthorn’s net interest margin for 2013 was 3.72% compared to 3.84% for 2012.  The lower net interest margin for 2013 was primarily the result of reduced average earning assets and continued net interest margin contraction.

 

Non-interest income for 2013 was $10.1 million compared to $9.7 million for 2012. The increase is primarily the result of a $1.3 million positive variance in real estate servicing income related to changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights and $0.8 million of gains realized on the sale of investment securities. These positive changes were partially offset by lower refinancing activity in our home mortgage area which impacted both the volume of loans sold and the related gains recognized.  Non-interest expense for 2013 was $40.8 million compared to $38.7 million for 2012. The largest contributor to the increase resulted from higher expense valuation write-downs on foreclosed assets.

 

On May 15, 2013, Hawthorn Bancshares’ exited participation in the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program (commonly called TARP) by repaying the outstanding $18.3 million debt.  Repayment of the TARP funds reflected Hawthorn Bancshares’ financial strength as it was made without borrowing funds or raising additional capital. Capital levels at December 31, 2013 continue to exceed regulatory well capitalized thresholds at 8.80% leverage capital and 15.33% total risk-based capital.

 

While 2013 was certainly better than 2012, I am still not satisfied with our performance.  We must continue to improve upon the 2013 0.43% return on average assets and 5.95% return on average common equity.  As an investor, director and executive officer, I am committed to maintaining strong asset quality, improving earnings performance, sustaining sound and proper capital levels and paying regular dividends.

 

With the increase in regulatory requirements, consolidation in the financial services industry may present expansion opportunities.  Hawthorn Bancshares’ future is bright and you should feel confident about your investment.  Your bankers are highly professional and I respect their talents immensely.  On behalf of your Board and Management team, thank you for your continued trust and confidence.

 

Sincerely,

A WORD CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of the Company, Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc., and its subsidiaries, including, without limitation:

 

·                  statements that are not historical in nature, and

·                  statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words believes, expects, may, will, should, could, anticipates, estimates, intends or similar expressions.

 

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results.  They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:

 

·                  competitive pressures among financial services companies may increase significantly,

·                  changes in the interest rate environment may reduce interest margins,

·                  general economic conditions, either nationally or in Missouri, may be less favorable than expected and may adversely affect the quality of our loans and other assets,

·                  increases in non-performing assets in the Company’s loan portfolios and adverse economic conditions may necessitate increases to our provisions for loan losses,

·                  costs or difficulties related to the integration of the business of the Company and its acquisition targets may be greater than expected,

·                  legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the business in which the Company and its subsidiaries are engaged, and

·                  changes may occur in the securities markets.

 

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, or the Dodd-Frank Act, was enacted on July 21, 2010. Provisions of the Act address many issues including, but not limited to, capital, interchange fees, compliance and risk management, debit card overdraft fees, the establishment of a new consumer regulator, healthcare, incentive compensation, expanded disclosures and corporate governance. While many of the new regulations under the Act are expected to primarily impact financial institutions with assets greater than $10 billion, the Company expects these new regulations could reduce revenues and increase expenses in the future. Management is currently assessing the impact of the Act and of the regulations anticipated to be promulgated under the Act.

 

We have described under the caption Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and in other reports filed with the SEC from time to time, additional factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Other factors that have not been identified in this report could also have this effect. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, which speak only as of the date they were made.

HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Overview

 

Through the branch network of its subsidiary bank, the Company, with $1.1 billion in assets at December 31, 2013, provides a broad range of commercial and personal banking services, including certificates of deposit, individual retirement and other time deposit accounts, checking and other demand deposit accounts, interest checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts. The Company also provides a wide range of lending services, including real estate, commercial, installment, and other consumer loans. Other financial services that the Company provides include automated teller machines, trust services, credit-related insurance, and safe-deposit boxes. The geographic areas in which the Company provides products and services include the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and Lee’s Summit, Missouri.

 

The Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income derived primarily from lending and deposit taking activities. A secondary source of revenue is investment income. The Company also derives income from trust, brokerage, credit card and mortgage banking activities and service charge income.

 

Much of the Company’s business is commercial, commercial real estate development, and mortgage lending. The Company has experienced soft loan demand in the communities within which we operate during the current economic slowdown. The Company’s income from mortgage brokerage activities is directly dependent on mortgage rates and the level of home purchases and refinancings.

 

The success of the Company’s growth strategy depends primarily on the ability of its banking subsidiary to generate an increasing level of loans and deposits at acceptable risk levels and on acceptable terms without significant increases in non-interest expenses relative to revenues generated. The Company’s financial performance also depends, in part, on its ability to manage various portfolios and to successfully introduce additional financial products and services by expanding new and existing customer relationships, utilizing improved technology, and enhancing customer satisfaction. Furthermore, the success of the Company’s growth strategy depends on its ability to maintain sufficient regulatory capital levels during periods in which general economic conditions are unfavorable and despite economic conditions being beyond its control.

 

The Company’s subsidiary bank, Hawthorn Bank (Bank), is a full-service bank conducting a general banking business, offering its customers checking and savings accounts, debit cards, certificates of deposit, safety deposit boxes and a wide range of lending services, including commercial and industrial loans, residential real estate loans, single payment personal loans, installment loans and credit card accounts. In addition, the Bank provides trust services.

 

The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to the extent provided by law. The operations of the Bank are supervised and regulated by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Periodic examinations of the Bank are conducted by representatives of the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Such regulations, supervision and examinations are principally for the benefit of depositors, rather than for the benefit of shareholders. The Company is subject to supervision and examination by the by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The following accounting policies are considered most critical to the understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Because these estimates and judgments are based on current circumstances, they may change over time or prove to be inaccurate based on actual experiences. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of a materially different financial condition and/or results of operations could reasonably be expected. The impact and any associated risks related to the Company’s critical accounting policies on its business operations are discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, where such policies affect the reported and expected financial results.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of the Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance and the impact of any associated risks related to these policies on the Company’s business operations is provided in Note 1 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and is also discussed in the Lending and Credit Management section below. Many of the loans are deemed collateral dependent for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, thus the fair value of the underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of the collateral and other factors can be volatile over periods of time. Such volatility can have an impact on the financial performance of the Company.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset / liability method by recognizing the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing the Company’s future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns such as realization of the effects of temporary differences, net operating loss carry forwards and changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. A valuation allowance is established when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become realizable. In this case, the Company would adjust the recorded value of the deferred tax asset, which would result in a direct charge to income tax expense and earnings in the period that the determination was made. Likewise, the Company would reverse the valuation allowance when it is expected to realize the deferred tax asset. Critical to the assessment is the Company’s estimates and judgments related to future taxable income which is based on historical financial performance and assumptions related to the forecasts of future performance. In addition, the Company is subject to the continuous examination of its tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. The Company accrues for penalties and interest related to income taxes in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions.

 

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets

 

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are recorded as other real estate expense, net. The Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned on an asset-by-asset basis. The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the cost of the property.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ANALYSIS

 

The Company has prepared all of the consolidated financial information in this report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurances that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Business Events On December 19, 2008, the Company announced its participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program (CPP), a voluntary program that provides capital to financially healthy banks. Participation in this program included the Company’s issuance of 30,255 shares of senior preferred stock (with a par value of $1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 287,133 shares of common stock. On May 9, 2012, the Company redeemed 12,000 of the 30,255 shares of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program, and on May 15, 2013, the remaining 18,255 shares were redeemed.

 

On June 11, 2013 the common stock warrant issued under the U.S Treasury Department’s CPP program was repurchased by the Company pursuant to a letter agreement between the Treasury and the Company for a total repurchase price of $540,000, or $1.88 per warrant share. The repurchase price was based on the fair market value of the warrant as agreed upon by the Company and the Treasury. The repurchase of the warrant ends the Company’s participation in the U.S Treasury Department’s CPP.

 

For the fifth consecutive year, on July 1, 2013, the Company distributed a four percent stock dividend to common shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2013. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect the stock dividend.

 

Consolidated net income of $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased $2.2 million compared to a consolidated net income of $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Net income available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $4.4 million, or $0.87 per diluted common share, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $1.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the return on average assets was 0.43%, the return on average common stockholders’ equity was 5.95%, and the efficiency ratio was 81.22%. The lower level of dividends and accretion on preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2013 resulted from the Company’s redemption of the remaining 18,255 shares of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program on May 15, 2013.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2012, consolidated net income was $2.8 million compared to $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012, net income available to common shareholders was $1.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $868,000 or $0.17 per diluted common share, for the year ended December 31, 2011. On May 9, 2012, the Company redeemed 12,000 of the 30,255 shares of preferred stock issued und the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program. Related to these shares was an additional $300,000 of accretion that was recognized at the time of the redemption. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the return

on average assets was 0.24%, the return on average common stockholders’ equity was 1.40%, and the efficiency ratio was 75.91%.

 

Net interest income decreased 4.6% to $39.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $41.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2012, net interest income decreased 3.3% to $41.2 million compared to $42.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. These decreases were primarily due to lower average earning asset levels and continued contraction of the net interest margin resulting from the prolonged low interest rate environment. The net interest margin decreased to 3.72% for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to 3.84% and 3.92% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

The lower provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, was primarily a result of the improving credit quality in the Company’s historical loss analysis and reduced levels of nonperforming loans. Net charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2013, were $3.2 million, or 0.38% of average loans compared to $7.9 million, or 0.93% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2012, and $12.3 million, or 1.42% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2011. Non-performing assets were 4.40% of total assets at December 31, 2013 compared to 5.33% at December 31, 2012, and 5.95% at December 31, 2011.

 

Non-interest income increased $1.1 million, or 11.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $526,000, or 5.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Income.

 

Non-interest expense increased $2.1 million, or 5.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $1.8 million, or 4.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. These increases are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Expense.

 

Average Balance Sheets

 

Net interest income is the largest source of revenue resulting from the Company’s lending, investing, borrowing, and deposit gathering activities. It is affected by both changes in the level of interest rates and changes in the amounts and mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The following table presents average balance sheets, net interest income, average yields of earning assets, average costs of interest bearing liabilities, net interest spread and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis for each of the years in the three year periods ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

Rate and volume analysis

 

The following table summarizes the changes in net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis, by major category of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, indentifying changes related to volumes and rates for the years ended December 31, 2013, compared to December 31, 2012, and for the years ended December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011. The change in interest due to the combined rate/volume variance has been allocated to rate and volume changes in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

Financial results for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011 reflected a decrease in net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, of $1.9 million, or 4.6%, and $1.5 million, or 3.4%, respectively. The decreases in net interest income are primarily due to lower average earning asset levels and continued contraction of the net interest margin resulting from the prolonged low interest rate environment. Measured as a percentage of average earning assets, the net interest margin (expressed on a fully taxable equivalent basis) decreased to 3.72% for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to 3.84% and 3.92% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Total non-interest income increased $1.1 million, or 11.7%, to $10.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $526,000, or 5.7%, to $9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On January 1, 2012, the Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50 Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings, as further described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements. As such, effective January 1, 2012, the change in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights is recognized in net real estate servicing fees in non-interest income for the period in which the change occurs.

 

Real estate servicing fees, net increased $1.3 million to $876,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and decreased $508,000 to $(453,000) for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. Net real estate servicing fees include mortgage loan servicing fees and the gains or losses due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions. Mortgage loan servicing fees earned on loans sold were $901,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $878,000 and $863,000 for the years ended 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total net losses recognized related to MSRs due to the change in fair value were $25,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to total net losses of $1.3 million for the year ended 2012. The net losses recognized related to MSRs in 2012 included a one time adjustment of $538,000 correction of an immaterial prior period error due to changing from the straight-line amortization method to an accelerated amortization method of accounting for amortizing MSRs in prior years. During the year ended December 31, 2011, $808,000 of amortization was included in net real estate servicing fees. The Company was servicing $322.5 million of mortgage loans at December 31, 2013 compared to $310.6 million and $307.0 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Gain on sales of mortgage loans decreased $1.0 million to $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $1.0 million to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company sold loans of $76.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $97.1 million and $75.0 million for the years ended 2012 and 2011, respectively. Refinancing activity impacting both the volume of loans sold and gains recognized began to slow down during 2013 due to rising interest rates. During 2013, the Company increased its repurchase reserve liability by $160,000 for estimated losses incurred on sold loans that is included in total gain on sales of mortgage loans.

 

Gain on sale of investment securities During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company received $32.6 million from proceeds on sales of available-for-sale debt securities and recognized gains of $778,000. These transactions were the result of bond sales and purchases to replace several smaller holdings with fewer, larger investments without materially changing the duration or yield of the investment portfolio.

Total non-interest expense increased $2.1 million, or 5.4%, to $40.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 and increased $1.8 million, or 4.9%, to $38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

Employee benefits increased $44,000, or 0.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $574,000, or 13.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in 2013 over 2012 primarily resulted from a $143,000 increase in medical insurance premiums, partially offset by a $98,000 decrease in other employee benefits. The increase in 2012 over 2011 primarily resulted from a $382,000 increase in estimated profit sharing and pension expense accruals, a $68,000 increase in other employee benefits due to expenses incurred hiring new executive management, and a $95,000 increase in medical insurance premiums.

 

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance assessment decreased $1,000, or 0.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and decreased $114,000, or 10.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in 2012 over 2011 was due to amendments made by the FDIC effective for the third quarter of 2011 to implement revisions to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act made by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The years ending after September 30, 2011 reflect a new assessment base using assets and tier one capital in the assessment calculation.

 

Legal, examination, and professional fees decreased $207,000, or 17.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and decreased $143,000, or 10.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in 2013 over 2012 primarily consisted of a $121,000 decrease in legal fees, a $37,000 decrease in consulting fees, and a $48,000 decrease in audit fees. The decrease in 2012 over 2011 primarily consisted of a $140,000 decrease in consulting fees for a human resource best practices and profitability-consulting project completed during 2011. The decrease in legal fees in 2013 over the comparable periods 2012 and 2011, was primarily a result of a decrease in litigation fees related to two legal suits incurred during 2012. The decrease in 2013 auditing fees was primarily due to nonrecurring fees incurred in 2012 for tax and fair value analysis.

 

Advertising and promotion increased $218,000, or 20.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and decreased $20,000, or 1.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in 2013 over the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was primarily due to additional advertising projects and payment for several sponsorships and promotional items that were not incurred during 2012 and 2011.

 

Processing expense decreased $50,000, or 1.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $400,000, or 12.5% for the year ended

 

13



 

December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in 2013 over 2012 was primarily due to contract savings resulting in lower core processing expenses. In 2013 a one time consulting fee was incurred to negotiate reduced future core processing expenses. A portion of this fee is being amortized over the new contract period with the Company’s core processing vendor. The increase in 2012 over 2011 primarily resulted from a one time reclassification of ATM and debit card income that was previously offset by the related expenses.

 

Other real estate (ORE) expense increased $2.3 million, or 85.2%, to $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $100,000, or 3.9%, to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The expense provision for valuation write-downs taken on ORE was $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $713,000 and $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The significant increase in the expense provision during 2013 primarily related to two hotels located in the Branson area that were sold at auction during the second quarter of 2013. Expenses incurred to maintain foreclosed properties were $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $2.3 million and $1.3 million for the years ended 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company began to see a decrease in overall operating costs during the third quarter of 2013 due to the sale of the hotels.

 

Other non-interest expense decreased $771,000, or 17.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $712,000, or 19.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease for the year ended December 31, 2013 was primarily due to a $273,000 decrease in CDI amortization, a $235,000 decrease in repossessed asset and loan expense, and a $326,000 decrease in donations due to property that was donated during 2012. Impairment write-downs taken on mining equipment and classic cars, included in repossessed asset and loan expenses, were $189,000 in 2013 compared to $330,000 in 2012. The increase for the year ended December 31, 2012 over 2011 was primarily due to two property donations totaling $309,000 to charitable organizations during 2012 that were both in other real estate owned, and $330,000 impairment write-downs on repossessed assets taken in of 2012.

 

Comparing fourth quarter 2013 to third quarter 2013

 

Consolidated net income available to common shareholders’ increased to $1.7 million for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $1.6 million for the third quarter 2013. Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, remained consistent at $10.0 million for both the fourth and third quarters of 2013 with $1.0 billion in average interest earning assets.

 

The lower provision for loan losses for both the fourth and third quarter of 2013 was primarily a result of the improving credit quality in the Company’s historical loss analysis and reduced level of nonperforming loans. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter 2013 were $564,000, or 0.07% of average loans, compared to $1.1 million, or 0.17% of average loans for the third quarter 2013.

 

Non-interest income decreased to $2.3 million for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2013. This decrease included a $120,000 decrease in service charge income, a $222,000 decrease in net real estate servicing income, partially offset by $224,000 increase in gains on sale of investment securities. Mortgage loan servicing fees earned on loans sold were $227,000 for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $215,000 for the third quarter 2013. Total gains or losses recognized due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions were ($111,000) for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $123,000 for the third quarter 2013.

 

Non-interest expense decreased to $9.6 million for fourth quarter 2013 compared to $10.0 million for the third quarter 2013. This decrease primarily resulted from a $778,000 decrease in other real estate expenses from $1.3 million for the third quarter 2013 compared to $487,000 for the fourth quarter 2013. The provision for the valuation allowance for other real estate owned was $847,000 for the third quarter 2013 compared to $336,000 for the fourth quarter 2013.

 

Comparing fourth quarter 2013 to fourth quarter 2012

 

Consolidated net income available to common shareholders’ decreased to $1.7 million for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $1.9 million for the fourth 2012. Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, decreased to $10.0 million from $10.2 million over the same period. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in average interest earning assets from $1.1 billion for the fourth quarter ended 2012 to $1.0 billion for the fourth quarter ended 2013.

 

The provision for loan losses was $30,000 for fourth quarter 2013 compared to $1.0 million for the fourth quarter 2012, and was primarily a result of the improving credit quality in the Company’s historical loss analysis and reduced level of nonperforming loans. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter 2013 were $564,000, or 0.07% of average loans, compared to $3.1 million, or 0.36% of average loans for the fourth quarter 2012.

 

Non-interest income decreased to $2.3 million for fourth quarter 2013 compared to $2.6 million for fourth quarter of 2012.

Non-interest expense increased to $9.6 million for fourth quarter 2013 compared to $8.7 million for fourth quarter 2012. This increase primarily resulted from a $1.0 million increase in other real estate expenses partially offset by a $422,000 decrease in other non-interest expenses. The provision for the valuation allowance for other real estate owned was $336,000 for the fourth quarter 2013, and in the fourth quarter 2012, a net $1.1 million of the valuation allowance was released. A current appraisal supported a partial recovery of $3.9 million of a $5.7 million provision on a commercial real estate construction property taken in 2010.  The decrease in other non-interest expense resulted from impairment write-downs taken on mining equipment and classic cars of $330,000 in the fourth quarter 2012 compared to a recovery of $50,000 received in the fourth quarter 2013.

 

Income taxes

 

Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 32.8% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 16.2% and 17.2% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Excluding an immaterial correction of a prior period error of $371,000, income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes would have been 26.3% for the year ended December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2011, the Company released $28,000 of interest accrued related to the release of $221,000 of provisions for uncertain tax positions. The Company had not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

Lending and Credit Management

 

Interest earned on the loan portfolio is a primary source of interest income for the Company. Net loans represented 72.4% of total assets as of December 31, 2013 compared to 70.4% as of December 31, 2012.

 

Lending activities are conducted pursuant to an established loan policy approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors. The Bank’s credit review process is overseen by regional loan committees with established loan approval limits. In addition, a senior loan committee reviews all credit relationships in aggregate over an established dollar amount. The senior loan committee meets weekly and are comprised of senior managers of the Bank.

The Company generally does not retain long-term fixed rate residential mortgage loans in its portfolio. Fixed rate loans conforming to standards required by the secondary market are offered to qualified borrowers, but are not funded until the Company has a non-recourse purchase commitment from the secondary market at a predetermined price. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company sold approximately $76.0 million of loans to investors compared to $99.8 million for the year December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2013, the Company was servicing approximately $322.5 million of loans sold to the secondary market compared to $310.6 million at December 31, 2012, and $307.0 million at December 31, 2011.

 

Risk Elements of the Loan Portfolio

 

Management, the senior loan committee, and internal loan review, formally review all loans in excess of certain dollar amounts (periodically established) at least annually. Currently, loans in excess of $2.0 million in aggregate and all adversely classified credits identified by management are reviewed. In addition, all other loans are reviewed on a sample basis. The senior loan committee reviews and reports to the board of directors, on a monthly basis, past due, classified, and watch list loans in order to classify or reclassify loans as loans requiring attention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. During this review, management also determines which loans should be considered impaired. Management follows the guidance provided in the FASB’s ASC Topic 310, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, in identifying and measuring loan impairment. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration. Management believes, but there can be no assurance, that these procedures keep management informed of potential problem loans. Based upon these procedures, both the allowance and provision for loan losses are adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered necessary by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

Total nonperforming assets decreased $12.8 million, or 20.2%, from December 30, 2012 to December 31, 2013. As detailed below, this decrease includes a decrease of $8.7 million, or 37.0%, due to sales and impairment write-downs of other real estate owned and repossessed assets and a $7.4 million, or 23.8%, decrease in nonaccrual loans, partially offset by a $3.0 million increase, or 37.6%, in accruing troubled debt restructurings (TDRs).

 

Nonperforming loans, defined as loans on nonaccrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and TDRs totaled $35.3 million, or 4.21%, of total loans at December 31, 2013 compared to $39.4 million, or 4.65%, of total loans at December 31, 2012.

 

It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that the collection of interest is doubtful, or upon which principal or interest due has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis. Interest on nonaccrual loans, which would have been recorded under the original terms of the loans, was approximately $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximately $21.0 million and $17.6 million, respectively, of loans classified as substandard, not included in the nonperforming asset table, were identified as potential problem loans having more than normal risk which raised doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms. Even though borrowers are experiencing moderate cash flow problems as well as some deterioration in collateral value, management believes the general allowance was sufficient to cover the risks and probable losses related to such loans at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

 

Total non-accrual loans at December 31, 2013 decreased $7.4 million to $23.7 million from December 31, 2012. This decrease primarily consisted of a $6.0 million decrease in real estate mortgage non-accrual loans and a $1.8 million decrease in real estate construction loans. This decrease was partially offset by a $349,000 increase in commercial, financial, and

 

17



 

agricultural loans. At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, real estate mortgage — commercial non-accrual loans made up 38% of total non-accrual loans.

 

Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest at December 31, 2013 increased $237,000 to $243,000 from December 31, 2012. Other real estate owned and repossessed assets at December 31, 2013 decreased $8.7 million to $14.9 million from December 31, 2012 primarily due to the sale of two hotels located in the Branson area and land held in foreclosed property in the Company’s real-estate subsidiary. During the year ended December 31, 2013, $4.6 million of nonaccrual loans, net of charge-offs taken, moved to other real estate owned and repossessed assets, and a net $3.4 million additional provision to the valuation allowance was recorded to reflect current fair values compared to a net $713,000 provision during the year ended December 31, 2012.

At December 31, 2013, loans classified as TDRs totaled $21.5 million, of which $10.1 million were on non-accrual status and $11.4 million were on accrual status. At December 31, 2012, loans classified as TDRs totaled $22.4 million, of which $14.1 million were on non-accrual status and $8.3 million were on accrual status. The net decrease in total TDRs from December 31, 2012 was primarily due to $1.0 million charged off, and approximately $2.9 million of payments received, partially offset by $3.6 million additions to TDRs during 2013. The increase in TDRs classified as real estate mortgage accruing loans primarily relates to two new loan relationships modified to interest only payments. The decrease in real estate construction and real estate mortgage non-accrual TDRs is primarily related to property sales and one loan relationship that went to accruing TDR status.

 

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

 

As mentioned above, the Company is continuing to recover from the deterioration of collateral values during the prior and current economic conditions. Current appraisals are being obtained and management has adjusted the provision to reflect the amounts determined necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level necessary to cover probable losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses was $13.7 million, or 1.63%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2013 compared to $14.8 million, or 1.75%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2012, and $13.8 million, or 1.64%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2011.

Net Loan Charge-offs

 

The Company’s net loan charge-offs were $3.2 million, or 0.38% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to net loan charge-offs of $7.9 million, or 0.93% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2012, and $12.3 million, or 1.42% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

Commercial, financial, and agricultural net charge-offs represented 18% of total net charge-offs during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 20% and 16% of net charge-offs during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Real estate mortgage — residential net charge-offs represented 22% of total net charge-offs during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 10% and 14% of total net charge-offs during the years ended December 31, 2012, and 2011, respectively. Real estate mortgage - commercial net charge-offs represented to 30% of total net charge-offs during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 66% and 51% of total net charge-offs during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Provision

 

The provision for loan losses decreased to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $8.9 million and $11.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Due to decreases in historical loss rates based on the Company’s last thirty-six months of charge-off experience, decreases in average loans and reduced levels of nonperforming loans, the Company’s required provision during the year decreased.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses decreased to $13.7 million at December 31, 2013 compared to $14.8 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease from December 31, 2012 primarily consisted of a $1.0 million decrease in the allocation for real estate construction — commercial loans, $428,000 decrease in real estate mortgage - residential loans, and a $311,000 decrease in real estate mortgage — commercial loans, partially offset by a $437,000 increase in commercial, financial, and agricultural loans, and a $199,000 increase in real estate construction — residential loans. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 38.8% at December 31, 2013, compared to 37.7% at December 31, 2012.

The specific reserve component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals and/or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2013, $4.8 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $35.1 million compared to $4.0 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $39.4 million at December 31, 2012. Management determined that $18.8 million, or 54%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2013 compared to $14.7 million, or 37%, at December 31, 2012 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate cash flow ability.

 

The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by applying percentages to pools of loans by asset type. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated based on similar risk characteristics. Historical loss rates for each risk group, which is updated quarterly, are quantified using all recorded loan charge-offs. Management determined that the previous twelve quarters were reflective of the loss characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as the starting point to determine allowance provisions. The Company’s methodology includes factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available. The rates are then adjusted to reflect actual changes and anticipated changes such as changes in specific allowances on loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure, any gains and losses on final disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure, changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, including general economic and business conditions affecting the Company’s key lending areas, credit quality trends, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, and findings of the internal loan review department. These risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate.

 

The specific and general reserve allocations represent management’s best estimate of probable losses contained in the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses comprises of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.

 

Investment Portfolio

 

The Company classifies its debt and equity securities into one of the following two categories:

 

Held-to-Maturity - includes investments in debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. Available-for-Sale - includes investments in debt and equity securities not classified as held to maturity or trading (i.e., investments that the Company has no present plans to sell in the near-term but may be sold in the future under different circumstances). The Company’s investment portfolio consists of available-for-sale securities.

 

Debt securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost, while debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at estimated market value.  Unrealized holding gains and losses from available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported, net of applicable taxes, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized.

 

The Company does not engage in trading activities and accordingly does not have any debt or equity securities classified as trading securities. Historically the Company’s practice had been to purchase and hold debt instruments until maturity unless special circumstances exist. However, since the investment portfolio’s major function is to provide liquidity and to balance the Company’s interest rate sensitivity position, all debt securities are classified as available-for-sale.

 

At December 31, 2013, the investment portfolio classified as available-for-sale represented 18.3% of total consolidated assets. Future levels of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale investment securities can be expected to vary depending upon liquidity and interest sensitivity needs as well as other factors.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity Management

 

The role of liquidity management is to ensure funds are available to meet depositors’ withdrawal and borrowers’ credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity to meet the demands is provided by maturing assets, short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally depositors.  Due to the nature of services offered by the Company, management prefers to focus on transaction accounts and full service relationships with customers. Management believes it has the ability to increase deposits at any time by offering rates slightly higher than the market rate.

 

21



 

The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), primarily made up of senior management, has direct oversight responsibility for the Company’s liquidity position and profile. A combination of daily, weekly, and monthly reports provided to management detail the following: internal liquidity metrics, composition and level of the liquid asset portfolio, timing differences in short-term cash flow obligations, available pricing and market access to the financial markets for capital, and exposure to contingent draws on the Company’s liquidity.

 

The Company has a number of sources of funds to meet liquidity needs on a daily basis. The Company’s most liquid assets are comprised of available for sale investment securities, federal funds sold, and excess reserves held at the Federal Reserve.

Federal funds sold and resale agreements normally have overnight maturities and are used for general daily liquidity purposes. The fair value of the available for sale investment portfolio was $206.0 million at December 31, 2013 and included an unrealized net loss of $2.4 million. The portfolio includes projected maturities and mortgage backed securities pay-downs of approximately $7.5 million over the next twelve months, which offer resources to meet either new loan demand or reductions in the Company’s deposit base.

 

The Company pledges portions of its investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, federal funds purchase lines, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank, and for other purposes required by law. At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, the Company’s unpledged securities in the available for sale portfolio totaled approximately $60.2 million and $53.8 million, respectively.

 

Total investment securities pledged for these purposes were as follows:

Liquidity is available from the Company’s base of core customer deposits, defined as demand, interest checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts. At December 31, 2013, such deposits totaled $606.4 million and represented 63.4% of the Company’s total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile and are often tied to other products of the Company through long lasting relationships. Time deposits and certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over totaled $350.0 million at December 31, 2013. These accounts are normally considered more volatile and higher costing representing 36.6% of total deposits at December 31, 2013.

Other components of liquidity are the level of borrowings from third party sources and the availability of future credit. The Company’s outside borrowings are comprised of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and subordinated notes. Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained mainly from upstream correspondent banks with which the Company maintains approved credit lines. As of December 31, 2013, under agreements with these unaffiliated banks, the Bank may borrow up to $26.50 million in federal funds on an unsecured basis and $4.7 million on a secured basis. There was $13.5 million federal funds purchased outstanding at December 31, 2013. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are generally borrowed overnight and are secured by a portion of the Company’s investment portfolio. At December 31, 2013, there was $31.1 million in repurchase agreements. The Company may periodically borrow additional short-term funds from the Federal Reserve Bank through the discount window; although no such borrowings were outstanding at December 31, 2013.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB). As a member of the FHLB, the Bank has access to credit products of the FHLB. As of December 31, 2013, the Bank had $24.0 million in outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. In addition, the Company has $49.5 million in outstanding subordinated notes issued to wholly-owned grantor trusts, funded by preferred securities issued by the trusts.

The Company pledges certain assets, including loans and investment securities to the Federal Reserve Bank, FHLB, and other correspondent banks as security to establish lines of credit and borrow from these entities. Based on the type and value of collateral pledged, the Company may draw advances against this collateral.

At December 31, 2013, loans with a market value of $381.6 million were pledged at the Federal Home Loan Bank as collateral for borrowings and letters of credit. At December 31, 2013, investments with a market value of $5.3 million were pledged to secure federal funds purchase lines and borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank.

 

Sources and Uses of Funds

 

Cash and cash equivalents were $28.4 million at December 31, 2013 compared to $58.9 million at December 31, 2012. The $30.4 million decrease resulted from changes in the various cash flows produced by operating, investing, and financing activities of the Company, as shown in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2013. Cash flow provided from operating activities consists mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Operating activities provided cash flow of $20.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Investing activities consisting mainly of purchases, sales and maturities of available for sale securities, and changes in the level of the loan portfolio, used total cash of $9.5 million. Cash was provided by $41.6 million in proceeds from investment maturities, calls, and pay-downs, $32.6 million in proceeds from sales of investment securities, and $9.6 million in proceeds received from sales of other real estate owned and repossessed assets, partially offset by $88.1 million in purchases of investment securities.

 

Financing activities used cash of $41.1 million, resulting primarily from a $43.3 million decrease in time deposits, $18.2 million to redeem the remaining shares of preferred stock, and $540,000 to redeem the common stock warrant. These decreases were partially offset by a $13.4 million increase in interest-bearing transaction accounts, a $10.0 million increase in federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and a $3.9 million net advance from Federal Home Loan Bank. Future short-term liquidity needs arising from daily operations are not expected to vary significantly during 2013.

 

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into certain forms of off-balance sheet transactions, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. These transactions are managed through the Company’s various risk management processes. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet transactions in its evaluation of the Company’s liquidity. The Company had $128.3 million in unused loan commitments and standby letters of credit as of December 31, 2013. Although the Company’s current liquidity resources are adequate to fund this commitment level the nature of these commitments is such that the likelihood of such a funding demand is very low.

 

The Company is a legal entity, separate and distinct from the Bank, which must provide its own liquidity to meet its operating needs. The Company’s ongoing liquidity needs primarily include funding its operating expenses and paying cash

dividends to its common and preferred shareholders. The Company paid cash dividends to its common and preferred shareholders totaling approximately $1.4 and $2.1 million for years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. A large portion of the Company’s liquidity is obtained from the Bank in the form of dividends. The Bank declared and paid $15.0 million and $4.5 million in dividends to the Company during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $450,000 and $1.9 million, respectively.

 

Capital Management

 

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of the Company and the Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.

 

Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company and the Bank each met all capital adequacy requirements.

 

In July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued final rules to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for community banking organizations begins January 1, 2015, while larger institutions (generally those with assets of $250 billion or more) must begin compliance on January 1, 2014. The final rules call for the following capital requirements:

 

·                  A minimum ratio of common tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%.

·                  A minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6%.

·                  A minimum leverage ratio of 4%.

 

In addition, the final rules establish a common equity tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets applicable to all banking organizations. If a banking organization fails to hold capital above the minimum capital ratios and the capital conservation buffer, it will be subject to certain restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments. The phase-in period for the capital conservation and countercyclical capital buffers for all banking organizations will begin on January 1, 2016.

 

Under the proposed rules previously issued by the federal banking agencies, accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) would have been included in a banking organization’s common equity tier 1 capital. The final rules allow community banks to make a one-time election not to include these new AOCI components in regulatory capital and instead use the existing treatment under the general risk-based capital rules that excludes most AOCI components from regulatory capital. The opt-out election must be made in the first call report or FR Y-9 series report that is filed after the financial institution becomes subject to the final rule.

 

The final rules permanently grandfather non-qualifying capital instruments (such as trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock) issued before May 19, 2010 for inclusion in the tier 1 capital of banking organizations with total consolidated assets less than $15 billion as of December 31, 2009 and banking organizations that were mutual holding companies as of May 19, 2010.

 

The Company has assessed the impact of these changes and it does not expect there to be a material impact on the regulatory ratios of the Company and the Bank and on the capital, operations and earnings of the Company and the Bank.

 

The Company exceeded all capital adequacy requirements as of December 31, for the years indicated:

The Company provides customers with off-balance sheet credit support through loan commitments and standby letters of credit.  Summarized credit-related financial instruments, including both commitments to extend credit and letters of credit at December 31, 2013 are as follows:

Since many of the unused commitments are expected to expire or be only partially used, the total amount of commitments in the preceding table does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Interest Sensitivity

 

Market risk arises from exposure to changes in interest rates and other relevant market rate or price risk. The Company faces market risk in the form of interest rate risk through transactions other than trading activities. The Company uses financial modeling techniques to measure interest rate risk. These techniques measure the sensitivity of future earnings due to changing interest rate environments. Guidelines established by the Company’s Asset/Liability Committee and approved by the board of directors are used to monitor exposure of earnings at risk. General interest rate movements are used to develop sensitivity as the Company feels it has no primary exposure to specific points on the yield curve. At December 31, 2013, the rate shock scenario models indicated that annual net interest income could change by as much as (20.5%) to 29.0% should interest rates rise or fall, respectively, 400 basis points from their current level over a one year period. However there are no assurances that the change will not be more or less than this estimate. Management believes this is an acceptable level of risk.

 

The following table represents estimated interest rate sensitivity and periodic and cumulative gap positions calculated as of December 31, 2013. Significant assumptions used for this table included: loans will repay at historic repayment rates; certain interest-bearing demand accounts are interest sensitive due to immediate repricing, and fixed maturity deposits will not be withdrawn prior to maturity. A significant variance in actual results from one or more of these assumptions could materially affect the results reflected in the table.

Effects of Inflation

 

The effects of inflation on financial institutions are different from the effects on other commercial enterprises since financial institutions make few significant capital or inventory expenditures, which are directly affected by changing prices. Because bank assets and liabilities are virtually all monetary in nature, inflation does not affect a financial institution as much as do changes in interest rates. The general level of inflation does underlie the general level of most interest rates, but interest rates do not increase at the rate of inflation as do prices of goods and services. Rather, interest rates react more to changes in the expected rate of inflation and to changes in monetary and fiscal policy.

 

Inflation does have an impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry, often resulting in a need to increase capital at higher than normal rates to maintain an appropriate capital to asset ratio. In the opinion of management, inflation did not have a significant effect on the Company’s operations for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Impact of New Accounting Standards

 

No new accounting pronouncements issued during the year ended December 31, 2013, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.:

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated March 31, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011

 

(1)        Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. (the Company) through its subsidiary, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), provides a broad range of banking services to individual and corporate customers located within the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and Lee’s Summit, Missouri. The Company is subject to competition from other financial and nonfinancial institutions providing financial products. Additionally, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the regulations of certain regulatory agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory agencies.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements includes all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make those statements not misleading. Management is required to make estimates and assumptions, including the determination of the allowance for loan losses, real estate acquired in connection with foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, and fair values of investment securities available-for-sale that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s management has evaluated and did not identify any subsequent events or transactions requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Stock Dividend On July 1, 2013, the Company paid a special stock dividend of four percent to common shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2013. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect this change.

 

The significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are summarized below:

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

In December of 2008 and March of 2010, the Company formed Hawthorn Real Estate, LLC, and Real Estate Holdings of Missouri, LLC, respectively (the Real Estate Companies); both are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), and the Real Estate Companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Loans

 

Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or maturity are held for investment at their stated unpaid principal balance amount less unearned income and the allowance for loan losses. Income on loans is accrued on a simple-interest basis. Loan origination fees and certain direct costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment to yield.

 

Loans Held for Sale

 

The Bank originates certain loans which are sold in the secondary market. These long-term, fixed rate loans are typically classified as held for sale upon origination based on management’s intent to sell. In order to manage the risk associated with such activities, the Company upon locking in an interest rate with the borrower enters into an agreement to sell such loans in the secondary market. Loans held for sale are typically sold with servicing rights retained and without recourse except for normal and customary representation and warranty provisions. At December 31, 2013 there were $95,882 mortgage loans that were held for sale in comparison to $2.3 million loans held for sale at December 31, 2012.

 

Mortgage loan servicing fees earned on loans sold are reported as other noninterest income when the related loan payments are collected net of amortization from mortgage servicing rights. Operational costs to service such loans are charged to expense as incurred.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011

 

Impaired Loans

 

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Included in impaired loans are all non-accrual loans and loans whose terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Impaired loans are individually evaluated for impairment based on fair values of the underlying collateral, obtained through independent appraisals or internal valuations for a collateral dependent loan, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows.

 

Non-Accrual Loans

 

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Loans that are contractually 90 days past due as to principal and/or interest payments are generally placed on non-accrual, unless they are both well-secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis. A loan remains on nonaccrual status until the loan is current as to payment of both principal and interest and/or the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay and remain current.

 

Restructured Loans

 

A modified or restructured loan is accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) for any loans in which concessions are made to the borrower for economic or legal reasons that the Company would not otherwise consider and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. A loan classified as a TDR will generally retain such classification until the loan is paid in full. Non-accrual TDRs are returned to accruing status once the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the terms of the restructured note through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six months. The Company includes all accruing and non-accruing TDRs in the impaired and non-performing asset totals. TDRs are measured for impairment loss by using fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals and internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of the Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. Many of the loans are deemed collateral dependent for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, thus the fair value of the underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of the collateral and other factors can be volatile over periods of time. Such volatility can have an impact on the financial performance of the Company.

 

Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings, and industry concentration. Although the allowance for loan losses are comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb credit losses.

 

The specific reserve component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals and/or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

recorded. The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by applying loss rates to pools of loans by asset type. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated based on similar risk characteristics. Historical loss rates for each risk group, which are updated quarterly, are quantified using all recorded loan charge-offs. Management determined that the previous twelve quarters were reflective of the loss characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as the starting point to determine loss rates for measurement purposes. The Company’s methodology includes factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available. The rates are then adjusted to reflect actual changes and anticipated changes such as changes in specific allowances on loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure, any gains and losses on final disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure, changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, including general economic and business conditions affecting the Company’s key lending areas, credit quality trends, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, and findings of the internal loan review department. These risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate.

 

Investment in Debt and Equity Securities

 

At the time of purchase, debt securities are classified into one of two categories: available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. All debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. The Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Changes in fair value, excluding certain losses associated with other-than-temporary impairment, are reported in other comprehensive income, net of taxes, a component of stockholders’ equity. Securities are periodically evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with guidance provided in the FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments —Debt and Equity Securities. For those securities with other-than-temporary impairment, the entire loss in fair value is required to be recognized in current earnings if the Company intends to sell the securities or believes it more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery. If neither condition is met, but the Company does not expect to recover the amortized cost basis, the Company determines whether a credit loss has occurred, which is then recognized in current earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

 

Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over the lives of the respective securities, with consideration of historical and estimated prepayment rates for mortgage-backed securities, as an adjustment to yield. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in earnings based on the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.

 

Capital Stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank

 

The Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System administered by the Federal Housing Finance Board, is required to maintain an investment in the capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) in an amount equal to 12 basis points of the Bank’s year-end total assets plus 4.45% of advances from the FHLB to the Bank. These investments are recorded at cost, which represents redemption value.

 

Premises and Equipment

 

Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation applicable to buildings and improvements and furniture and equipment is charged to expense using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Such lives are estimated to be 5 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 15 years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Core Deposit Intangibles

 

Intangible assets that have finite useful lives, such as core deposit intangibles, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Core deposit intangibles are amortized over periods of 7 to 8 years representing their estimated lives using straight line and accelerated methods.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011

 

When facts and circumstances indicate potential impairment of amortizable intangible assets, the Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying value based upon future cash flows expected to result from the use of the underlying asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying value of the underlying asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. The impairment loss recognized represents the amount by which the carrying value of the underlying asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying asset.

 

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

The Company originates and sells residential mortgage loans in the secondary market and may retain the right to service the loans sold. Servicing involves the collection of payments from individual borrowers and the distribution of those payments to the investors or master servicer. Upon a sale of mortgage loans for which servicing rights are retained, the retained mortgage servicing rights asset is capitalized at the fair value of future net cash flows expected to be realized for performing servicing activities.

 

Mortgage servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. The Company determines the fair value of mortgage servicing rights by estimating the fair value of the future cash flows associated with the mortgage loans being serviced. Key economic assumptions used in measuring the fair value of mortgage servicing rights include, but are not limited to, prepayment speeds, discount rates, delinquencies, ancillary income, and cost to service. These assumptions are validated on a periodic basis. The fair value is validated on a quarterly basis with an independent third party valuation specialist firm.

 

On January 1, 2012, the Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50, Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings. As such, effective January 1, 2012, changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights have been recognized in real estate servicing fees, net in non-interest income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income in the period in which the change occurred.

 

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets

 

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are recorded as other real estate expense. The Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned on an asset-by-asset basis. The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the cost of the property.

 

Pension Plan

 

The Company provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees.  The benefits are based on age, years of service and the level of compensation during the employees highest ten years of compensation before retirement. Net periodic costs are recognized as employees render the services necessary to earn the retirement benefits. The Company records annual amounts relating to its pension plan based on calculations that incorporate various actuarial and other assumptions including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases, and turnover rates.  The Company reviews its assumptions on an annual basis and may make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is appropriate to do so.  The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under its plan are reasonable based on its experience and market conditions.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011

 

The Company follows authoritative guidance included in the FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation — Retirement Plans under the subtopic Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. ASC Topic 715 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its consolidated balance sheet and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. This guidance also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its fiscal year-end, with limited exceptions. Additional disclosures are required to provide users with an understanding of how investment allocation decisions are made, major categories of plan assets, and fair value measurement of plan assets as defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset / liability method by recognizing the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing the Company’s future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns such as realization of the effects of temporary differences, net operating loss carry forwards and changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. A valuation allowance is established when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become realizable. In this case, the Company would adjust the recorded value of our deferred tax asset, which would result in a direct charge to income tax expense in the period that the determination was made. Likewise, the Company would reverse the valuation allowance when it is expected to realize the deferred tax asset. In addition, the Company is subject to the continuous examination of its tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. The Company accrues for penalties and interest related to income taxes in income tax expense. At December 31, 2011, the Company released $28,000 of interest accrued related to the release of $221,000 of uncertain tax provisions. The Company had not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

Trust Department

 

Property held by the Bank in a fiduciary or agency capacity for customers is not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, since such items are not assets of the Company. Trust department income is recognized on the accrual basis.

 

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

 

For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term federal funds sold and securities sold or purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks, cash, and due from banks.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company’s stock-based employee compensation plan is described in Note 12, Stock Compensation. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, the Company measures the cost of the stock-based compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the award, recognizing the cost over the requisite service period. The fair value of an award is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expense recognized is based on an estimation of the number of awards for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered, and is included in salaries and employee benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The standard also requires that excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises be reflected as financing cash inflows instead of operating cash inflows.

 

Treasury Stock

 

The purchase of the Company’s common stock is recorded at cost. Purchases of the stock are made both in the open market and through negotiated private purchases based on market prices. At the date of subsequent reissue, the treasury stock account is reduced by the cost associated with such stock on a first-in-first-out basis.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011

 

The following represents significant new accounting principles adopted in 2013:

 

Balance Sheet In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The ASU is a joint requirement by the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board to enhance current disclosures and increase comparability of U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity will be required to disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the balance sheet, as well as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. ASU 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, was issued in January 2013, and amended ASU 2011-11 to specifically include only derivatives accounted for under Topic 815, repurchase and reverse purchase agreements, and securities and borrowing and lending transactions that are either offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement. Both ASUs are effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of these ASUs had no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Other Comprehensive Income In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI). The amendments of ASU No. 2013-02 require an entity to present, either in the income statement or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013. As a result of the adoption of the ASU, the disclosure of AOCI included in Note 10 contains information regarding reclassifications out of AOCI and into net income.

The Bank grants real estate, commercial, installment, and other consumer loans to customers located within the communities surrounding Jefferson City, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson and Lee’s Summit, Missouri. As such, the Bank is susceptible to changes in the economic environment in these communities. The Bank does not have a concentration of credit in any one economic sector. Installment and other consumer loans consist primarily of the financing of vehicles. At December 31, 2013, loans with a carrying value of $388.1 million were pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank as collateral for borrowings and letters of credit.

 

The following is a summary of loans to directors and executive officers or to entities in which such individuals had a beneficial interest of the Company, are summarized as follows:

Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration.

Impaired loans

 

Loans evaluated under ASC 310-10-35 include loans which are individually evaluated for impairment. All other loans are collectively evaluated for impairment under ASC 450-20. Impaired loans totaled $35.1 million and $39.4 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and loans which have been classified as troubled debt restructurings. Total impaired loans of $35.1 million at December 31, 2013, includes $34.8 million of impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment and $259,000 of non-accrual consumer loans that were collectively evaluated for impairment. Total impaired loans of $39.4 million at December 31, 2012, includes $39.2 million of impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment and $174,000 of non-accrual consumer loans that were collectively evaluated for impairment.

 

The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, $21.8 million and $36.1 million, respectively, of impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2013, $4.8 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling $35.1 million compared to $4.0 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $39.4 million at December 31, 2012. Management determined that $18.8 million, or 54%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2013 compared to $14.7 million, or 37%, at December 31, 2012 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate cash flow ability.

The recorded investment varies from the unpaid principal balance primarily due to partial charge-offs taken resulting from current appraisals received. The amount recognized as interest income on impaired loans continuing to accrue interest, primarily related to troubled debt restructurings, was $504,000 and $414,000, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired loans is calculated on a monthly basis during the years reported. Contractual interest lost on loans in non-accrual status was $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Credit Quality

 

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based upon an internal rating system reflecting management’s risk assessment. Loans are placed on watch status when (1) one or more weaknesses that could jeopardize timely liquidation exits; or (2) the margin or liquidity of an asset is sufficiently tenuous that adverse trends could result in a collection problem. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified may have a well defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. Such loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the collection of interest or principal is doubtful. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when (1) deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower exists for which payment of full principal and interest is not expected, or (2) payment of principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

 

At December 31, 2013, loans classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) totaled $21.5 million, of which $10.1 million were on non-accrual status and $11.4 million were on accrual status. At December 31, 2012, loans classified as TDRs totaled $22.4 million, of which $14.1 million were on non-accrual status and $8.3 million were on accrual status. When an individual loan is determined to be a TDR, the amount of impairment is based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral less applicable selling costs. Accordingly, specific reserves of $2.2 million and $1.5 million related to TDRs were allocated to the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

The following table summarizes loans that were modified as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

(1) The amounts reported post-modification are inclusive of all partial pay-downs and charge-offs, and no portion of the debt was forgiven. Loans modified as a TDR that were fully paid down, charged-off or foreclosed upon during the period ended are not reported.

 

The Company’s portfolio of loans classified as TDRs include concessions such as interest rates below the current market rate, deferring principal payments, and extending maturity dates. Once a loan becomes a TDR, it will continue to be reported as a TDR until it is ultimately repaid in full, charged-off, or the collateral for the loan is foreclosed and sold. The Company considers a loan in TDR status in default when the borrower’s payment according to the modified terms is at least 90 days past due or has defaulted due to expiration of the loan’s maturity date. During the year ended December 31, 2013, four loans meeting the TDR criteria were modified compared to fourteen loans during the year ended December 31, 2012. There were no

The total available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 348 securities at December 31, 2013. The portfolio included 96 securities having an aggregate fair value of $115.1 million that were in a loss position at December 31, 2013. Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or longer totaled $6.4 million at fair value. The $4.2 million aggregate unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2013 was caused by interest rate fluctuations. The total available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 380 securities at December 31, 2012. The portfolio included 14 securities having an aggregate fair value of $8.0 million that were in a loss position at December 31, 2012. Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or longer totaled $150,000 at fair value. The $28,000 aggregate unrealized loss included in other comprehensive income at December 31, 2012 was caused by interest rate fluctuations. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality these investments were not considered other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

On January 1, 2012, the Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50, Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings. As such, effective January 1, 2012, changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights have been recognized in earnings in non-interest income in the period in which the change occurred.

 

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, the Company serviced mortgage loans for others totaling $322.5 million and $310.6 million, respectively. Mortgage loan servicing fees, reported as non-interest income, earned on loans sold were $901,000, $878,000, and $863,000, for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

(1)         The change in fair value resulting from changes in valuation inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model reflects the change in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions primarily due to changes in interest rates.

(2)         Other changes in fair value reflect changes due to customer payments and passage of time. This also includes a one time adjustment of a $538,000 correction of an immaterial prior period error due to changing from the straight-line amortization method to an accelerated amortization method of accounting for amortizing MSRs in prior years. If the aforementioned was corrected as of December 31, 2011, the balance at the beginning of the period would have been $1.8 million.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011

 

On March 17, 2005, Exchange Statutory Trust II, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company, issued $23.0 million of 30-year floating rate Trust Preferred Securities (TPS) to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to a three-month LIBOR rate plus 1.83% and reprices quarterly (2.07% at December 31, 2013). The TPS can be prepaid without penalty at any time after five years from the issuance date.

 

The TPS represent preferred interests in the trust. The Company invested approximately $712,000 in common interests in the trust and the purchaser in the private placement purchased $23.0 million in preferred interests. The proceeds were used by the trust to purchase from the Company its 30-year deeply subordinated debentures whose terms mirror those stated above for the TPS. The debentures are guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a subordinated guarantee. Distributions on the TPS are payable quarterly on March 17, June 17, September 17, and December 17 of each year that the TPS are outstanding. The trustee for the TPS holders is U.S. Bank, N.A.. The trustee does not have the power to take enforcement action in the event of a default under the TPS for five years from the date of default. In the event of default, however, the Company would be precluded from paying dividends until the default is cured.

 

On March 17, 2004, Exchange Statutory Trust I, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company issued $25.0 million of floating rate TPS to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.70% and reprices quarterly (2.94% at December 31, 2013). The TPS are fully, irrevocably, and unconditionally guaranteed on a subordinated basis by the Company. The proceeds of the TPS were invested in junior subordinated debentures of the Company. Distributions on the TPS are payable quarterly on March 17, June 17, September 17, and December 17 of each year that the TPS are outstanding. The TPS mature on March 17, 2034. That maturity date may be shortened if certain conditions are met.

 

The Exchange Statutory Trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company does not report the securities issued by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities, and instead reports the subordinated notes issued by the Company and held by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities. The amount of the subordinated notes as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $49.5 million, respectively. The Company has recorded the investments in the common securities issued by the Exchange Statutory Trusts aggregating $1.5 million, and the corresponding obligations under the subordinated notes, as well as the interest income and interest expense on such investments and obligations in its consolidated financial statements.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are

deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences at December 31, 2013 and, therefore, did not establish a valuation reserve.

 

At December 31, 2013, the accumulation of prior years’ earnings representing tax bad debt deductions of the Bank was $2.9 million. If these tax bad debt reserves were charged for losses other than bad debt losses, the Bank would be required to recognize taxable income in the amount of the charge. It is not contemplated that such tax-restricted retained earnings will be used in a manner that would create federal income tax liabilities.

 

The Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which addresses the accounting for uncertain tax positions. As a result of the lapse of the statue of limitations for the 2007 tax year, the Company recognized $340,351 of gross unrecognized tax benefits and $30,969 of accrued interest which resulted in a decrease in the effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, the Company did not have any uncertain tax provisions.

Pension

 

The Company provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees. An employer is required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its balance sheet and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Under the Company’s funding policy for the defined benefit pension plan, contributions are made to a trust as necessary to provide for current service and for any unfunded accrued actuarial liabilities over a reasonable period. To the extent that these requirements are fully covered by assets in the trust, a contribution might not be made in a particular year. The Company has not made any contributions to the defined benefit plan for the current plan year. The minimum required contribution for the 2014 plan year is estimated to be $1.3 million. The Company has not determined whether it will make any contributions other than the minimum required funding contribution for 2014.

The estimated prior service cost for the defined benefit pension plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic cost in 2014 is $79,000. During 2014, $30,000 is the estimated amount of actuarial loss subject to amortization into net periodic pension cost.

 

Assumptions utilized to determine benefit obligations as of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 and to determine pension expense for the years then ended are as follows:

The assumed overall expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets used in calculating 2013 pension expense was 7.0%. Determination of the plan’s rate of return is based upon historical returns for equities and fixed income indexes. During the past five years, the Company’s plan assets have experienced the following annual returns: 19.1% in 2013, 11.4% in 2012, 0.1% in 2011, 12.4% in 2010, and 22.0% in 2009. The rate used in plan calculations may be adjusted by management for current trends in the economic environment. With a traditional investment mix of over half of the plan’s investments in equities, the actual return for any one plan year may fluctuate significantly with changes in the stock market. Due to a decrease in discount rates used in the actuarial calculation of plan income, the Company expects to incur $945,000 of expense in 2014 compared to $1.2 million in 2013.

 

Plan Assets

 

The investment policy of the pension plan is designed for growth in value while minimizing risk to the overall portfolio. The Company diversifies the assets through investments in domestic and international fixed income securities and domestic and international equity securities. The assets are readily marketable and can be sold to fund benefit payment obligations as they become payable. The Company’s long-term investment target mix for the plan is 70% equity securities and 30% fixed income.

(13)              Preferred Stock

 

On December 19, 2008, the Company announced its participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program (CPP), a voluntary program that provides capital to financially healthy banks. This program was designed to attract broad participation by banking institutions to help stabilize the financial system by encouraging lending.

 

Participating in this program included the Company’s issuance of 30,255 shares of senior preferred stock (with a par value of $1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 287,133 shares of common stock (see below for additional information) to the U.S. Department of Treasury in exchange for $30.3 million. On May 9, 2012, the Company redeemed 12,000 shares of preferred stock from the U.S. Department of Treasury by repaying $12.0 million of the $30.3 million CPP funds along with $140,000 of accrued and unpaid dividends on the shares redeemed. Related to these shares was an additional $300,000 of accretion that was recognized at the time of the redemption. On May 15, 2013, the Company redeemed the remaining 18,255 shares of preferred stock from the U.S. Department of Treasury by repaying the $18.3 million of the CPP funds along with $228,187 of accrued and unpaid dividends on the shares redeemed. Related to these shares was an additional $182,209 of accretion that was recognized at the time of the redemption.

 

The common stock warrant was repurchased by the Company on June 11, 2013 pursuant to a letter agreement between the Treasury and the Company for a total repurchase price of $540,000, or $1.88 per warrant share. The repurchase price was based on the fair market value of the warrant as agreed upon by the Company and the Treasury. The repurchase of the warrant ends the Company’s participation in the U.S Treasury Department’s CPP. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company had declared and paid $456,000 of dividends and recognized $278,000 of accretion of the discount on preferred stock.

Under the treasury stock method, outstanding stock options are dilutive when the average market price of the Company’s common stock, when combined with the effect of any unamortized compensation expense, exceeds the option price during the period, except when the Company has a loss from continuing operations available to common shareholders. In addition, proceeds from the assumed exercise of dilutive options along with the related tax benefit are assumed to be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price of such stock during the period.

 

The following options to purchase shares during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 were not included in the respective computations of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the option, when combined with the effect of the unamortized compensation expense, was greater than the average market price of the common shares and were considered anti-dilutive.

(15)              Capital Requirements

 

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of the Company and the Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.

 

Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements.

 

As of December 31, 2013, the most recent notification from the regulatory authorities categorized the bank as well- capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s categories.

(16)              Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for the measurement of fair value, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard applies whenever other standards require (permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In this standard, FASB clarified the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, the standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, there were no transfers into or out of Levels 1-3.

 

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

 

Level 3 — Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and significant to the fair value. These may be internally developed using the Company’s best information and assumptions that a market participant would consider.

 

ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.

 

The Company is required to disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis separate from those measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis would include foreclosed real estate, long-lived assets, and core deposit intangible assets, which are reviewed when circumstances or other events indicate that impairment may have occurred.

 

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis

 

Following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:

 

Available-for-sale securities

 

The fair value measurements of the Company’s investment securities are determined by a third party pricing service which considers observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. The fair value measurements are subject to independent verification to another pricing source by management each quarter for reasonableness. Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs.

 

Mortgage servicing rights

 

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of estimated future cash flows utilizing contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees. The valuation models estimate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The Company classifies its servicing rights as Level 3.

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

 

Following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

 

Impaired Loans

 

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis other than loans that are considered impaired. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the fair value of the collateral has been determined and any impairment amount calculated, a specific reserve allocation is made. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3. As of December 31, 2013, the Company identified $16.3 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $4.8 million. Related to these loans, there was $3.2 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the Company identified $24.6 million in impaired loans that had specific

allowances for losses aggregating $4.0 million. Related to these loans, there was $5.2 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets

 

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consisted of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral comprises of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are recorded as held for sale initially at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3.

(17)              Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such value:

 

Loans

 

The fair values of loans are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans could be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The net carrying amount of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. This method of estimating fair value does not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value prescribed by ASC Topic 820.

 

Investment Securities

 

A detailed description of the fair value measurement of the debt instruments in the available-for-sale sections of the investment security portfolio is provided in the Fair Value Measurement section above. A schedule of investment securities by category and maturity is provided in the notes on Investment Securities.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock

 

Ownership of equity securities of FHLB is restricted and there is no established market for their resale. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

Federal Funds Sold, Cash, and Due from Banks

 

The carrying amounts of short-term federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks, and cash and due from banks approximate fair value. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell classified as short-term generally mature in 90 days or less.

 

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of estimated future cash flows utilizing contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees.

 

Cash Surrender Value —Life Insurance

 

The fair value of Bank owned life insurance (BOLI) approximates the carrying amount. Upon liquidation of these investments, the Company would receive the cash surrender value which equals the carrying amount.

 

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable

 

For accrued interest receivable and payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short maturity for these financial instruments.

 

Deposits

 

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand, NOW accounts, savings, and money market, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Interest-bearing Demand Notes to U.S. Treasury

 

For securities sold under agreements to repurchase and interest-bearing demand notes to U.S. Treasury, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time period.

 

Subordinated Notes and Other Borrowings

 

The fair value of subordinated notes and other borrowings is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for other borrowed money of similar remaining maturities.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the counterparties drawing on such financial instruments, and the present creditworthiness of such counterparties. The Company believes such commitments have been made on terms that are competitive in the markets in which it operates.

 

Limitations

 

The fair value estimates provided are made at a point in time based on market information and information about the financial instruments. Because no market exists for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the fair value estimates.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011

 

(18)              Repurchase Reserve Liability

 

The Company’s repurchase reserve liability for estimated losses incurred on sold loans that are included in gain on sales of mortgage loans was $160,000 at December 31, 2013. This liability represents management’s estimate of the potential repurchase or make-whole liability for residential mortgage loans originated for sale that may arise from representation and warranty claims that could relate to a variety of issues, including but not limited to, misrepresentation of facts, appraisal issues, or program requirements that may not meet investor guidelines. Although the Company has not experienced any historical repurchase losses, it was notified during the third quarter of 2013 by one of its two investors, Freddie Mac, that fifteen loans which were foreclosed upon from 2007 to the present, are being reviewed for quality control purposes and may result in loss indemnification payments to the investor as reimbursement for losses. The balance of these loans at foreclosure date totaled $1.5 million. During the fourth quarter of 2013 and through March 31, 2014, the Company settled these loan foreclosures resulting in payments totaling $119,000 for reimbursement of costs incurred by Freddie Mac on three of these foreclosures. The remaining twelve foreclosures were settled without incurring any additional costs. At December 31, 2013, the Company was servicing 3,114 loans sold to the secondary market with a balance of approximately $322.5 million compared to 3,057 loans sold with a balance of approximately $310.6 million at December 31, 2012.

 

(19)              Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company issues financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business of meeting the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

The Company’s extent of involvement and maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for financial instruments included on its consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2013, no amounts have been accrued for any estimated losses for these financial instruments.

 

The contractual amount of off-balance-sheet financial instruments as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, is as follows:

Commitments

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since certain of the commitments and letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, furniture and equipment, and real estate.

 

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support contractual obligations of the Company’s customers. The approximate remaining term of standby letters of credit range from one month to five years at December 31, 2013.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Pending Litigation

 

The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal actions incidental to the Company’s past and current business activities. Based on the Company’s analysis, and considering the inherent uncertainties associated with litigation, management does not believe that it is reasonably possible that these legal actions will materially adversely affect the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations in the near term. The Company records a loss accrual for all legal matters for which it deems a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Some legal matters, which are at early stages in the legal process, have not yet progressed to the point where a loss amount can be estimated.

The board of directors intends that the Company will continue to pay quarterly dividends. The actual amount of quarterly dividends and the payment, as well as the amount, of any special dividend ultimately will depend on the payment of sufficient dividends by the subsidiary Bank to the Company. The payment by the Bank of dividends to the Company will depend upon such factors as the Bank’s financial condition, results of operations and current and anticipated cash needs, including capital requirements.
